"Returning to the queen's mother, the minister is by no means looking for such a woman for His Majesty, and how dare the minister tell His Majesty that I am a matchmaker for the Yongle Dynasty, this kind of metaphor is in the classics."

"You Chengyuan dare to think so much, who else in the Ming Dynasty dares to find a strong and black woman for His Majesty, this palace has been familiar with books since childhood, and has read countless books, how come he has never heard of it!" Empress Xu was angry.

"Li Si and Shang Ying sent a girl who was strong Qin to Qin Shi Huang, and Dong Zhongshu sent a girl from the Three Gangs and Five Constants to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Li Shimin's rule of Zhenguan benefited from the selection of talents through the imperial examination, the importance of the economy, and the open-mindedness of policies. The minister just wants to give His Majesty such a woman, so that she can help Your Majesty achieve eternal happiness.

Without exception, these women have helped the emperors of the previous dynasty to achieve some feats, but they have given His Majesty this special strength. It will not be sick, but it can enrich the country, strengthen the army, cultivate the land, reassure the people, firearms, warships, craftsmen, business and medical skills, and culture, which can help His Majesty expand the territory of the Ming Dynasty. ”

Zhu Di heard the back, put down the teaglass, walked in front of Cheng Yuan, and said seriously: "There is such a woman, I want it, the more the better." ”

Cheng Yuan's bedroom.

Zhu Di sat at the table and kept drinking tea, Queen Xu sat next to her and read the script, and Zhu Bai and Zhu Gaochi played Cheng Yuan's chess.

An Cheng taught Zhu Zhanji to write.

This is a very normal family.

"The Qin Dynasty, Li Si and Shang Ying, Fan Ju, they changed the law to strengthen the country and found the direction. But it was destroyed because of Qin II, which is very regrettable, and it is not entirely right to burn books and pit Confucianism. The Qin state united by recruiting talents, and then abolished hereditary slavery.

Moreover, long-term peace and stability will help to store strength for agricultural production and have a better environment for the development of agricultural production, and these factors cannot be ignored.

Dong Zhongshu deposed the hundred schools of thought and respected Confucianism alone, although he used the girl Sangang Wuchang to rule the courtiers' thoughts, which is indeed good in the short term, but today's Confucianism is no longer the Confucianism of the past.

The first emperor Hong Wuye's original approach, the ministers liked it very much, and now the Confucian family has less backbone to be loyal to a country, Your Majesty knows this. ”

Cheng Yuan talked about each dynasty, but he deliberately skipped the rule of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty, and Zhu Laosi was particularly concerned about not being orthodox.

He would not deliberately lift Zhu Di's scales.

Dragons have reverse scales, and if they touch it, they will die.

But Zhu Laosi wanted to hear Cheng Yuan's views on Li Shimin's Zhenguan governance.

"Cheng Yuan, you tell me what kind of person you think Li Shimin is." Zhu Di used the teacup to go to the tea foam.

It's right for you to ask me directly what I think of your Jingnan, why bother mentioning Li Shimin in a roundabout way.

"Say, don't lie to me, there are no outsiders here."

Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Bai were a little nervous, and begged Cheng Yuan not to make a mistake and say a few nice words, otherwise he would be finished again.

The big husband can bend and stretch, and he can be soft and hard.

"Back to Your Majesty, in Li Yuan's eyes, Li Shimin is not a good son, but Li Shimin wants to be a good son, and he is his eldest brother Li Jiancheng......"

Cheng Yuan tried his best not to offend, and it didn't sound false.

However, in the eyes of the courtiers, he is a good emperor, and in the eyes of the people, it can be seen that it is more important to make some achievements.

However, Li Shimin's personal morality is at a loss, he made a mistake to encroach on his brother and daughter-in-law, but Your Majesty, you have never had such a ridiculous thing, just because you have no choice but to cut it...... Therefore, the minister thinks that His Majesty's rule of Yongle is comparable to the rule of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty. But ......"

Zhu Di closed his eyes and listened comfortably, then opened his eyes and said: "But what, swallow and spit and spit out, why is it so inky." ”

However, Your Majesty needs talents, and you need the "like a flower" girl that the minister said, so that you can achieve the real rule of Yongle. ”

Empress Xu understood it, it turned out that the black, ugly and strong "woman" that Cheng Yuan said was not a woman who couldn't really get on the stage.

Zhu Di was silent, he had never heard of a person talking about policies and ideas as a girl, it always sounded crooked, but when he thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense.

"You just have to tell me what to do next." Zhu Laosi listened to it with a big head, and he preferred to listen to Cheng Yuan's martial arts such as Sui and Tang Romance and Yue Fei.

Seeing that Zhu Di was impatient, Cheng Yuan said: "The first thing is to eat well, throughout the dynasties, the inheritance of farm tools and crops is very important." Even Gu Yuan has people like Guo Shoujing and Wang Zhen.

His Majesty's Shenji Battalion should also look for talents, and it is best to choose Chaohu Lake and Taihu Lake to recruit soldiers for training after winning the battle in eastern Zhejiang.

However, for the time being, it is necessary to focus on agriculture first. ”

"You're asking me to encourage farming? I've been encouraging since I ascended the throne. ”

Encourage a fart, if it weren't for Lao Tzu, I accidentally said that I leaked my mouth, as for so much.

"But Your Majesty didn't encourage it, the minister just wanted to ask Your Majesty, why sweet potatoes and corn brought so many benefits to Daming, but Your Majesty felt that it was worthless, and the reward for the minister was only a little.

The minister's high-yield rice, the minister's dried sweet potatoes and sweet potato flour, why doesn't Your Majesty reward rewards. Rather, they give rewards to those things that are irrelevant. ”

Zhu Di put down the teacup and couldn't straighten his waist with a smile:

"Cheng Yuan, you lie on the bed and don't react, you just think I didn't give you a reward, worried about the silver?"

Cheng Yuan was unhappy: "Your Majesty, does the minister care about that money, it is 100,000 taels, and the minister can earn it back in half a year, not blowing."

Chen just thinks that from breeding, accompaniment to pest control, as well as those seeds and farm tools, they are all improved by the people of Zhenguo Academy.

It may take a lot of effort to correct and ponder for a small thing for a small thing, but this spirit should be encouraged, and this is also a merit.

The dried sweet potatoes and the three umami sweet potato vermicelli that His Majesty saw were all encouraged by His Royal Highness with his monthly money, and he couldn't ignore his hard work.

Hard work and hard work are things that can't be bought for ten thousand taels of silver, so they can't be prostituted in vain. ”

"What the minister wants to tell Your Majesty now is that I have studied the study of the Cheng family, UU read books and gave them a name.

Cheng's studies include agriculture related to farming, astronomy on astronomy, and geometric arithmetic for bookkeeping figures.

Alchemists developed the chemistry of gunpowder, explored the oceanography of navigation, and studied the geography of mountains, rivers, plants, and trees.

The economics of gold and silver trading, life-saving medicine, water drainage truck power, and the physics involved in Mohist mechanics.

Specializing in leading the army to fight wars and studying the military science of military warfare. ”

Zhu Di questioned: "They can make me reach a prosperous world!" ”

"The Japanese always come by the sea, when the Yuan Dynasty entered the sea to conquer, the whole army was annihilated, shouldn't oceanography be studied, shouldn't shipbuilding be.

Oceanography can play a vital role in the expansion of the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

His Majesty likes firearms, firearms need fine iron, fine iron needs iron smelting, gunpowder development, soldiers need the best ordnance, clothes of all colors, all need to involve the minister's Chengshi learning, chemistry.

Marching and fighting, the influence of geography and weather is crucial, Zhuge Kongming borrowed the east wind and burned Chibi using astronomy and geography.

Your Majesty, the minister is asking you now whether you think it is important or not. ”

Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Bai were surprised to hear this, and their mouths opened wide.

An Cheng also looked at it, she never knew that her husband was so thoughtful, and she was fascinated and admired by these things he said.

Zhu Di was speechless for a while.

Empress Xu has read Zhuzi's books, but she doesn't understand. But Cheng Yuan made a simple explanation for every knowledge, think about it, these knowledge is actually not very difficult to understand.

Zhu Di said: "Why haven't I heard you say this before. ”

"The minister usually ponders in the study, in the past, it was the first success of Jingnan, and now it is His Majesty who governs the entire Ming Dynasty, so it is not too late for the minister to say the learning of the Cheng clan now."
