Chapter 433: Battle
"Ahh
Lou Suzhen was shocked when she heard Zhu Hao's words.
This kid speaks more and more directly, but for some reason it gives people a sense of firmness and credibility.
"Childe, are you really good at the art of the Xuankong?" Lou Suzhen asked as if she were verifying.
"Hmm."
Zhu Hao nodded, "Some words are arrogant, but today's Your Majesty is arrogant and capricious, and emperors since ancient times have not thought of sitting in the palace to consolidate imperial power like him, and it is very rare to run around all day long, so it is very easy to provoke the disaster of killing." At that time, the Xingwang Mansion will be a real dragon, and Mr. Tang will have the opportunity to enter the court, or be above many of his classmates who took the exam with him at the beginning, even if he is from a background, it will not prevent him from showing his ambitions.
"But with his weak temperament of fame and fortune, he has no intention of competing in the court, or he will soon resign and leave, and then there must be someone like his wife who is familiar with him, and he will be encouraged behind him, so that he can show his strengths for the country and the people, but he regretted that he left in the history of Renchen, not only a name of calligraphy and painting far away from the temple."
Zhu Hao said all the requests at once.
What I want is for you to encourage Tang Yin and let him make a difference in the court.
You don't see much chance for him now, but once King Xiaoxing becomes the emperor, with his seniority in the Xingwang Mansion, even if he can't be a cabinet elder and a minister immediately, it is not difficult to be a shadow staff by the emperor's side, and the official will only get bigger and bigger.
Lou Suzhen had a hesitant look on her face, obviously she had never thought that she would take encouraging Tang Yin to improve as her life goal in the second half of her life, so she naturally hesitated.
Zhu Hao said: "Mr. in the future to the king of Xing, equivalent to Jiang Bin and others in the present, if there is no one from the side to the right, the future of the Son of Heaven may fall astray, the stability of the world lies in the monarch and the minister's heart, not the king or the minister's wishful thinking, Mr. has been in Anlu for many years, the late king respected and entrusted, if the career is successful when the torrent retreats, I am afraid that the lady wants to see, right?" ”
Lou Suzhen nodded, and her tone was calm: "If Mr. really has the opportunity to show his ambitions, he really shouldn't give up lightly, besides, he has been teaching Xingwang Shizi all these years, and with such a layer of teacher-student affection, it is much more convenient to do things." ”
Zhu Hao said with a smile: "Madame has the best idea, but it's too early to talk about everything, I will send someone to inquire about the situation in Nanjing, as soon as there is news about King Ning and his family, I will report it in time, and I hope that Madame can calm down, life will go on, isn't it?" ”
Speaking of which, Zhu Hao has basically finished what he should say.
It is to let Lou Suzhen have an extra layer of fetters and encourage Tang Yin to be an official well, the reason may sound far-fetched to outsiders, after all, Zhu Si seems to be far away from being the emperor.
For Zhu Hao, it is really not far away.
If there is no change in history, there is only one year left, if there are twists and turns, or even less than a year, now Tang Yin is fifty years old, and after knowing the destiny of heaven, he has little interest in the struggle for power, and needs to have a confidante like Lou Suzhen to secretly encourage him......
Tang Yin is a person who values love and righteousness, and with Lou Suzhen's emotional bond, maybe he can really leave a strong mark in the Ming officialdom?
When parting, Zhu Hao specially advised: "Regarding the matter of explaining to Mrs. today, don't explain it to Mr. for the time being, he will know when the time comes." In any case, give him two years...... In the past two years, the world will surely change greatly, and everything will be back on track. ”
……
……
Zhu Houzhao led the Ming astray.
Someone needs to rein in the precipice and bring the Ming Dynasty back on the right track, Zhu Hao feels that Zhu Si, who has just ascended the throne in history, can be called the Holy Lord of the Ming Dynasty who has set things right, although he is not in agreement with the civil officials, but in the early days of his reign, the Ming Dynasty is thriving, of course, he is incompetent in the middle and late stages of his reign, and the degree of absurdity is not much worse than Zhu Houzhao.
The peak period of the Ming Dynasty is very short, and it will pass in a blink of an eye, step by step towards sunset and dusk, which seems to be the inevitable development of the times.
"The Xiaoice period is coming, sweet potatoes and corn are not spreading rapidly, and population development will inevitably make the food supply unable to keep up, this is the Malthusian trap, the stubborn disease of the agricultural society, and only by changing the times can we avoid devastating natural and man-made disasters...... Can I stop it alone? ”
On the way back, Zhu Hao began to think about this question.
In the past, he stood in the position of a staff member of the Xingwang Mansion, thinking about how to put Zhu Si on the right path step by step.
Now he also needs to think about how to make Da Ming stronger step by step.
Now it seems that it is too early, but if the Jinshi enters the court in the examination, and Zhu Si also becomes the emperor, it may be a little too late to think about these things.
Back at the residence, someone was moving things into the yard.
One of Yu San's subordinates brought to the capital came over and bowed, "Master, this is sent by the owner of the Su Dynasty, and there is a letter attached." ”
Zhu Hao opened the letter.
It's nothing more than that Su Xi is in Jiangnan, but he still pays attention to Zhu Hao's participation in the examination in Beijing, but the letter came quickly, and now Zhu Hao hasn't even entered the examination room.
After Su Xigui met Zhu Si in Beijing, he set off to the south to help raise "military salaries".
Everyone knew that the war was over, but the soldiers and horses of the Beijing camp and border soldiers brought by Zhu Houzhao were waiting to be fed, and the local government could not afford to support the rations of tens of thousands of troops, so the trouble naturally fell on the head of Huang Zhan, the right attendant of the household department.
Originally, Huang Zan could be promoted to half a level in the six divisions of the Beijing Division before the end of the year, and serve as a left squire in one of the six divisions, or directly transfer Nanjing to Shangshu.
But the army of the Southern Expedition is facing the problem of difficulty in eating, and its official position has not changed, perhaps everyone thinks that the right waiter of the household department is a hot potato, and Yang Tinghe has no intention of finding someone to replace Huang Zan at all.
To a certain extent, Huang Zan has established a good reputation in the court because of Su Xigui's secret help, no matter how foolish the emperor is, at least there is a capable person who can cover the money and food for him, although this bottom is full of loopholes, but it will not directly connect the Taicang of the Ming Dynasty to the pot.
"Alright."
Zhu Hao asked people to continue to move the gift box.
He casually opened it and looked at it, what Su Xigui sent was not anything valuable, but more to meet the needs of daily food and clothing.
"If you knew it earlier, you don't have to buy it, just wait for him to send it, you can save a lot of money."
Zhu Hao found that in fact, he spent very little money in Jingshi, and the silver on hand basically filled Zhu Si's shortfall.
However, Zhu Si is in the capital, just like a big money, every time he goes out, he hugs back and forth, and buys whatever he sees.
Sure enough, it's not like spending your own money, so you don't feel distressed.
……
……
The eighth day of the second month.
Zhu Hao is about to enter the examination room to take the examination.
On this day, Zhu Hao did not hide it, and generously took Sun Ru and Gongsun Yi to see Tang Yin, and met Tang Yin for the last time before the exam.
Jiang Lun and Lu Song are all there.
There is nothing to say before the exam, the imperial examination has reached the level of the examination, if it is not outstanding, it is too difficult to just rely on luck to get the title of the gold list.
After discussion, let Lu Song accompany Zhu Hao to the examination room in the afternoon, and Tang Yin originally had a meal of "sweet wine" at noon, but Zhu Hao explicitly refused.
Then Zhu Hao called Tang Yin aside alone and began to talk about business.
"Sir, at present, the prince has been stranded in Beijing for half a year, and he is eager to return home, even if he can get out of the house, he still inevitably has the idea of being trapped in a cage......"
Zhu Hao said.
Tang Yin was a little puzzled: "You mean, let me appease him?" ”
Zhu Hao said: "Yes, but it's not." Words of appeasement must be spoken, but they will not have any effect, as long as the mind is fulfilled. If you really want to let the prince have a sense of belonging in Beijing, you usually go to see each other more, and it is best to accompany you on a trip...... In my absence, his homesickness will be even stronger. If it's really hard to control...... Just place a lockdown order. ”
"What?"
Tang Yin didn't expect that Zhu Hao's last proposal was to stop Zhu Si from going out.
Zhu Hao said: "Sir, don't be surprised, the prince has always been independent and resolute, he has asked me more than once how to go back to Anlu from Beijing, with his age, he can't bear to run away from home directly, and it is not impossible to return to Anlu alone." This not only gives the court a false pretext, but also brings hidden dangers to the safety of the prince, Mr. doesn't want to see this happen, right? ”
Tang Yin couldn't help frowning.
He didn't know what to rate.
As an educator who has experienced two lifetimes, Zhu Hao understands that educating students should not only teach knowledge, but also pay attention to the cultivation of character and morality.
Just like Sun Ru, a loving mother will not discipline, she is arrogant, and she can correct it directly with a stick.
But it won't work for Zhu Si.
Zhu Si is in a rebellious period, not long after the child's father died, he was dragged to the capital as a hostage, and his personal safety was threatened.
It's only for people like Tang Yin who don't know what mental health is, that they think that Zhu Hao is unfounded.
"I don't need Mr. to understand, I have sent someone to keep an eye on it, and I also specially reminded Luo Dianzhan that the rest is to rely on Mr. and Aunt Jiang to appease them more, if not, take him with you when you drink." Zhu Hao said.
Tang Yin shook his head and smiled bitterly: "You're not afraid to avoid Jinyiwei?" ”
Zhu Hao said: "No matter how you avoid it, will my uncle not report that you Tang Yin is a staff member in the Xingwang Mansion?" What the scholars don't know, the spies of Dongchang and Jinyiwei have long been cleared, otherwise they wouldn't have arrived in Beijing, and there would be people around you. We now want to make the prince feel that there are always people around him who care about him, and his actions are unhindered, so that he can reduce his homesickness and homesickness. ”
"Hmm." Tang Yin nodded.
……
……
Break up and say goodbye.
Jiang Lun and Lu Song had high hopes for Zhu Hao.
They knew that Gongsun Yi and Sun Ru were basically foils in this examination, and they didn't expect them to be admitted to the Jinshi at all, and their attention was all on Zhu Hao.
"Take the test well, let's get a jinshi out of the Wangfu, and I feel that there is light on my face wherever I go in the future." Jiang Lun said with a smile.
Zhu Hao said: "Of course I want to be admitted, and I still want to be the champion." ”
"Hahaha......"
It was rare for several people to hear childlike innocent words from Zhu Hao's mouth, and then thinking of the maturity and sophistication he usually showed, it was quite contrasting and cute, and they couldn't stop laughing.
Happiness knows no bounds.
