"Nonsense."

In the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Yuanzhang's face turned dark.

The people who came to report saw His Majesty frowning and waved his hand outside, and immediately bowed down and pressed his steps to exit the Qianqing Palace.

In the dormitory.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked down at Zhu Fuling in his arms, handed it to the grandmother on the side, and then crossed his hands on his waist.

There was anger on his face: "What a good son you taught! Knowing that Taiyuan City is a dangerous place, he still has to run over. ”

Zhu Biao, who was reviewing the recital, frowned, turned his head to look at the angry old man, and only felt that he was numb.

Who has been teaching that kid in the past few years?

Zhu Biao Zhengse said: "What is the situation in Shanxi Province, it is difficult for us in Beijing to know in detail, maybe Brother Xi is moving with the times and adapting to the times." ”

"Where did the situation come from?" Zhu Yuanzhang had a dark face and snorted: "I think he just wants to be a hero." Now that all parties in Shanxi Province have been prepared, just waiting for the rebels to rise up, the court occupies the righteousness, and everyone in the world knows it, and then it is the time for the soldiers to point out and completely clean up Shanxi Province. ”

Zhu Biao put down the pen in his hand, holding the stove that had been placed on his lap with both hands and hiding it in his sleeve.

He stood up and said, "It's not that you don't know why Brother Xi is doing this, and why you are angry. ”

Hum!

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was broken by his thoughts, couldn't help but snort coldly and turned his head to look away.

Zhu Biao smiled slightly and shook his head.

The old man is really like an old child now, which makes people really helpless.

He continued: "How difficult it is to mourn the livelihood of the people. If Brother Xi really sat back and watched the rebels in Shanxi Province rise up and swept away the innocent people into the midst of the war, then he is not worthy of standing in his current position, and he is also sorry for the cultivation you have cultivated him over the years. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's face was a little embarrassed, he glanced sideways at the prince, and snorted twice.

"Just how can you talk?"

Zhu Biao looked good, shook his head and chuckled: "You are nothing more than distressed and worried that Brother Xi'er is in danger, or something may happen." But the third child also stayed in Taiyuan City, Jingchuan Hou Cao Zhen was also in Taiyuan, and Gao Yangzhi and other civil and military officials who were on the northern tour.

They can go to Taiyuan, why can't Brother Xi go?

Because he is a nobleman? Because he is the grandson of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty?

It is precisely because he is a descendant of my Zhu family that he should go. I want to let the people of Shanxi Province and the world take a good look at it, the descendants of my Zhu family are not bad seeds, my Zhu family is fighting for the safety of my children and grandchildren, and I also want to protect the safety of hundreds of millions of people in the world. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the gushing prince lightly and hummed quietly.

Then he glared: "You talk the most!" ”

Zhu Biao walked up to the old man, stuffed the stove in his hand into the old man's hand, and then helped him sit next to the firebox.

The most undisputed crown prince of the Ming Dynasty said softly: "You should trust Brother Xi'er's judgment and believe that he is doing what he should do most." In this way, he can be considered a qualified person for your selection. ”

"Lao Tzu fought more battles than you ate!" Zhu Yuanzhang held the stove with both hands, and under Zhu Biao's service, he took off his boots and stuffed his feet into the firebox.

He frowned and said in a muffled voice, "Why did Lan Yu go to Datong." It is precisely because Brother Xi can see that the gang of thieves outside the gate will definitely come with an army if they hear the news that there is chaos within the Ming Dynasty. Lan Yu sat in Datong, not to deter Shanxi from the north side of Shanxi Road, but to guard against people outside the Guan.

This year, the imperial court and the Warat Department discussed mutual markets, and I had questions early in the morning. In order to keep the customs from being in a group, and wait for these things to be done.

Even if Brother Xi didn't go out of Beijing to patrol the north and find out about Shanxi Dao, I also had to attack Shanxi Dao.

The matter of Shanxi Road is done, what will Daming do next? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang stopped talking, and quietly looked at Zhu Biao, who was sitting on a small stool, beating his legs for himself.

Zhu Biao nodded: "The matter of Shanxi Dao is over, and the hidden dangers within the imperial court can almost be suppressed temporarily." Even if there are disgruntled people, they will not dare to move at this time because of Shanxi Dao.

At this time, it was your old order, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers from the Nine Sides of the Ming Dynasty went out of the Great Wall, swept the desert grassland, and completely wiped out the desert grassland with the momentum of plowing the court and sweeping the holes.

In this way, I will have peace in the north and south of the Ming Dynasty, and the troubles outside the East China Sea will be lifted. You can make every effort to sort out the new policy, and Hexi can re-enter the Western Regions and reproduce the scene of the strong Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty. ”

"No!"

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head categorically and denied Zhu Biao's conclusion.

His eyes twinkled, and he pressed the stove under his arm, his hands clenched.

"At that time, the Ming Dynasty will far surpass the strong Han Sheng Tang! I can't see it, you can see it. If you can't see it, you will definitely be able to achieve this supreme glory that belongs to my Ming in the hands of Brother Xi'er! ”

Zhu Biao frowned slightly.

The Ming Dynasty is flat in all directions, and the old man's plan is very big.

"The supreme glory of our Ming Dynasty?"

In a small courtyard in Taiyuan City.

The dark night, the cold wind and snow, did not seem to stop people from running outside and doing things that could only be done in the dark.

Zhu Yunwen couldn't help but look at Zhu Yunxi sitting in front of him with a puzzled face, and was very puzzled and curious about the supreme glory that belonged to the Ming Dynasty alone.

In the small courtyard, the snow fell for several days, although it was not as heavy as the previous day, but it kept the snow deep enough on the ground.

Sun Cheng led people to hide around the courtyard wall, while Tian Mai led a smaller number of people, but scattered out of the courtyard and hid among the surrounding houses, vigilantly watching all possible movements in this night.

Gao Yangzhi was helpless.

Before the birthday night of His Royal Highness King Jin, His Royal Highness the Imperial Prince will not enter Taiyuan City again.

But tomorrow is the birthday of King Jin, and tonight the emperor's grandson has to enter the city.

There was no gazebo in the courtyard, and in order not to wake up Qiu Niang, who was already pregnant, several people could only shrink in the kitchen, lighting a rickety oil lamp that seemed to go out at any time.

Zhu Yunxi looked very calm, leaning back on this bamboo chair, holding a cup of hot tea in his hand.

He nodded and said: "The Ming Quartet, now that the east and south have been pacified, thousands of miles away, even if there is a crisis, the imperial court will have enough time to deal with it calmly." When Shanxi is done this time, the dilemma within the imperial court on the new policy will also be truly suppressed.

At that time, there is no need to wait for the soldiers of the Nine Sides to ask for battle, and the emperor's grandfather will definitely issue an order, and my Ming Dynasty will come out of the nest and completely uproot the harm that has plagued my atomic people for thousands of years outside the Great Wall.

At that time, the imperial court only needs to diligently repair internal affairs, rectify Hexi, and send troops to the Western Regions, and the situation of a former Han Dynasty and a former Tang Dynasty will be able to reproduce in my Ming Dynasty. ”

Zhu Yunwen frowned: "It's just that, it's not unique." ”

Zhu Yunxi smiled: "Zhang Ergong, do you know?" ”

Zhu Yunwen was still searching for memories of Zhang Ergong in his mind, but Gao Yangzhi jumped out of the corner of his eye, and looked sideways at the imperial grandson who was under the lamplight, with well-defined cheeks.

"The new secretary of the Ministry of Industry, the first Zhang Ergong in the Ming Dynasty to enter the officialdom as a craftsman?"

Zhu Yunwen's eyes were shining, and he was also quite curious about that Zhang Ergong.

In just a few years, he was able to get out of the officialdom from the craftsman's nationality, and he was able to sit in the position of the secretary of the Ministry of Industry of the Ming Dynasty so quickly.

This adventure and speed, but the Manchu Dynasty can no longer find a second person.

Zhu Yunxi nodded and said, "It's him." Over the years, many new things in the court have been brought out by him. ”

You've got a lot of involved.

Gao Yangzhi glanced at Zhu Yunxi silently, thinking that if it wasn't for the support of the emperor's grandson, how could Zhang Ergong have such great luck and get out of the craftsman to become the official of the Ming Dynasty.

You must know that Zhang Ergong sat in the position of the secretary of the Ming Ministry of Industry, although it is surprising, but compared with it, he entered the officialdom as a craftsman, which is the most difficult thing.

It is also from Zhang Ergong that the current election of officials in the Ming Dynasty, with the cooperation of the examination of public law, has begun to be not limited to those who only read the Four Books and Five Classics and the articles of sages.

All those who are needed by the imperial court and have good character, as long as they have the identity of a lifter, they will have the opportunity to enter the Ming Dynasty.

If you add the identity of a heart student?

Gao Yangzhi thought of a data collation received by the cabinet before he left Beijing.

Now, not to mention the places where the effect of governance is slow, in Yingtian City alone, most of the soap officials in the yamen of various ministries and departments are already occupied by students of the heart.

These people can still participate in the public law examination.

In Yingtian, the number of mental students with official bodies is also increasing with a steady increase in the total number.

All this, just like Zhang Ergong became the secretary of the Ministry of Industry of the Ming Dynasty, was promoted by the grandson of the Ming Dynasty in front of him.

Gao Yangzhi sighed a little in his heart.

Zhu Yunxi continued to explain: "The steamship built by the Ministry of Industry at the Longjiang Shipyard has been launched, and the next step is the ironclad steamship.

According to what that Fan worm said, not to mention ironclad steamships, just talking about steamships, my Ming Dynasty is enough to crisscross the world.

If there is an ironclad steamship, then on the thousands of miles of sea frontier, only my Ming banner can be seen!

Ironclad steamships are faster and carry more. In the past, the Central Plains could only guard this ancestral land, but due to various reasons, it was powerless to the land that was uninhabited for thousands of miles. Now, there is an opportunity. ”

The Ming Dynasty, which has the gap of the times, masters the world's most cutting-edge technology, but maintains a continuous innovation and enterprising attitude, no one can defeat it from the outside.

Zhu Yunwen obviously understood this truth, and he said quietly: "Throughout the ages, countless history books have said that internal strife is far more serious than external trouble. How about the former Han? How about the former Don? How about the former Song? How is the pre-element?

Even if you can take down all the land outside the Central Plains, you still need to be governed by people in the end. Lingnan, how many years have passed, and the current reform of the land and return to the stream of the imperial court is still slow to implement.

Although there was much less local chaos than when the country was founded, it still required the imperial court to work hard to stabilize it.

The court is like this at the moment, but what about the new land outside?

The new deal is for the sake of Daming Sheji, how many people in the world are temporarily dormant, but what about the future? ”

In the past, Zhu Yunwen was an idealist.

It's just that in the past few years, he has more things to think about a certain issue more calmly and for a long time.

His eyes were calm and deep staring at Zhu Yunxi in front of him, staring at the third brother who had already walked on a path with the Ming Dynasty and no one knew what the scenery was at the end.

Zhu Yunxi's eyes flickered twice.

"I understand the problem you said, but if you don't do it, it will still be like this, and if you do it, maybe there will be some changes."

"If it were you, what would you choose?"

The problem was returned to Zhu Yunwen.

And after thinking about it for a long time, he shook his head silently.

"I don't know."

Zhu Yunxi smiled: "No one knows, but it's man-made." Moreover, the internal stability of the Central Plains, with the continuous improvement of the steam train by Zhang Ergong, can start construction like the cement road, I believe that this will shorten the distance between the imperial court and the locality, and can also control the local area more effectively. ”

Distance has always been a huge constraint on centralization.

It may be that a certain place and a certain county have all fallen into the hands of thieves, and the central court may only know about this matter at this time.

Then the imperial court had to find out the cause and send troops to suppress it.

In this way, a rebellion may take a year or more for the central court to resolve.

And if the military operations on the front line fail during this period, or if the bandits begin to spread around the perimeter, such a catastrophe may bring down the entire central court.

The purpose of building roads is to enable local people to be revitalized and to allow money and materials to circulate.

But at a deeper level, it is also for stronger control of the place.

Zhu Yunxi's eyes were gloomy, and the construction of the railway was imperative like the cement road.

Just as he promoted the establishment of the new Ming Tax Office, in order to return the empire's fiscal revenue to the imperial court.

Without finance and taxes, no matter how chaotic there is in the locality, they have to be able to use money and grain to buy people's hearts.

"Steam trains?"

Zhu Yunwen looked puzzled, he had never heard of this thing.

Gao Yangzhi nodded: "When the railway is built and the steam train runs on it, the imperial court's control over the local area will definitely be strengthened." ”

Zhu Yunxi looked at the two and painted a magnificent picture for them.

"Imagine that one day in the future, the ironclad steamship from Yingtian City will crisscross the sea of thousands of miles, and no one dares to stop it. The steam train from Yingtian City connects the entire Central Plains.

Then drive out of the Great Wall, drive into the desert grassland, drive to the Western Regions and even west, drive to the Jiaozhi Road and even the entire southern region.

What kind of scene would the Ming Dynasty be at that time?

At that time, did the Ming Dynasty afford a sentence of supreme glory that belonged to the Ming Dynasty? ”

I don't know why, tonight Zhu Yunxi was lying outside the city in the big tent of the Chinese army in the big camp, tossing and turning, but it was difficult to sleep.

That's why he came up with the idea of quietly entering the city and chatting with Zhu Yunwen.

Unconsciously, he drew a magnificent picture in front of Zhu Yunwen. Even with it, there was hesitation in Gao Yangzhi's eyes.

Zhu Yunxi looked at the two, but stood up and patted his buttocks.

"When you're done, go back to sleep!"

"Tomorrow, there will be a lively meeting waiting for everyone."
