Zhu Cihong thought about this question for a long time before he asked in an uncertain tone, "Yes...... Technology? ”

In Zhu Cihong's view, Daming's current status is inseparable from Daming's military science and technology.

If it weren't for those advanced weapons, as well as the steam train that could travel quickly, which could allow the Ming to have a crushing military force, and a steady stream of supplementary troops, the Ming Dynasty's power would not have expanded so quickly.

"Technology ......"

Lao Zhu heard Zhu Cihong's words, and shook his head slightly, although Zhu Cihong is smart, he is still too young, and it is still easy to be confused by superficial things, and it is difficult to see through the essence directly.

And at this moment, Chongzhen, who had been standing behind, couldn't help but interject and said, "What Grandpa Tai wants to say, is it the people's heart?" ”

Hearing Chongzhen's words, Lao Zhu glanced at Chongzhen with some surprise, and then slightly suddenly, after all, Chongzhen has been the emperor for so many years, although he is not very good, but after all, he has so many years of experience, so it is not too difficult to say this answer.

"That's right, it's the hearts of the people."

Lao Zhu nodded approvingly, and then said: "No matter how far science and technology develop, its ultimate purpose is to serve people. ”

"Da Ming can now easily take down all the surrounding forces in such a short period of time, and the role of advanced firearms is only part of it."

"It's more about the soldiers who use their lives, these soldiers know that they are fighting not only for the Ming Dynasty, but also for themselves, so they dare to fight and can fight."

"With them, even if we don't have those advanced firearms, our Ming can still subdue the surrounding forces, but it may take a little longer."

"So technology is important, but its importance is below the people's hearts, if no one uses it, no matter how strong the technology is, it is just a pile of scrap copper and rotten iron."

After Lao Zhu said this, he looked at the thoughtful Zhu Cihong, and asked another question, "Do you know how to win the hearts of the people?" ”

Hearing Lao Zhu's words, Chongzhen, who had originally answered a question, was a little excited.

How can he know this, he must know this, he must know this, and he will not be almost taken down by Li Zicheng in the first place.

And Zhu Cihong thought for a while, and said: "The old have their ends, the strong have their usefulness, and the young have their growth?" ”

Zhu Cihong's answer is from the Book of Rites "The Journey of the Great Road", for Zhu Cihong chose this answer, instead of answering the sentence that the world is public, Lao Zhu is still a little satisfied in his heart.

"Barely correct, but too general."

Lao Zhu bowed slightly, and then said, "Does Cihong know the emperor's checks and balances?" ”

"Yes."

This time, Zhu Cihong did not hesitate at all, nodded directly, and then said: "The art of the emperor lies in balance, under the king, there can be no dominance. ”

"Between the courtiers, the two sides check and balance each other, and what the king has to do is to eliminate the old and increase the weak, so that the court is always in balance."

"Balance between the monarch and the minister, little Doyle."

Lao Zhu listened to Zhu Cihong finish speaking this time, and directly shook his head disdainfully, and then said: "The real art of checks and balances is not in the system but in the balance, not in the balance of the ministers, but in the balance of the people." ”

"If the people have no food, give him a bite to eat, and if the people are rich, they will give him dignity."

"Only when the people are sufficient can the world be stable."

"The Son of Heaven is a herdsman, but this herding is not herding, but guiding."

"The future direction of the Ming Dynasty depends on the emperor, but where it can go in the end is determined by the people."

Speaking of this, Lao Zhu patted Zhu Cihong's shoulder encouragingly, and then said: "Your father has no heart now, and we haven't counted on him, the real helmsman of this Ming Dynasty will definitely be you in the future." ”

"We hope you can remember that you are just a helmsman, and you should never take the emperor too seriously, that will make you lose the hearts of the people."

"There is also the fact that the inheritance of a dynasty lies in change, not in keeping."

"Some of the rules left by the emperors of the Ming Dynasty that are not suitable for this era have been abolished, and they will no longer hinder the latecomers."

"But now that Daming is developing too fast, when you are in power, the rules we have left over the past few years may no longer apply."

"Don't hesitate when the time comes, discuss it with the ministers, as long as you think it's okay to change it, then no matter who sets the rules, it should be abolished."

"Don't be afraid, let alone be afraid of infamy, when the emperor has a few people who don't bear the infamy, either the world scolds or the future generations, don't think too much."

Lao Zhu said and glanced at Chongzhen, whose expression was a little unnatural, and then said: "After your father abdicated, he was considered the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, if it really didn't work, you would blame him for the infamy." ”

"Anyway, his current infamy can't be washed away in hundreds of years, and it doesn't matter if it's a little more or less."

“……”

When Chongzhen heard Lao Zhu's words, he was a little speechless in his heart, how did I get this infamy, don't you have any points in your old man's heart?

If you say that you died directly before you, then you are at most scolded for being incompetent, and if you die directly, maybe you can still leave a bit of sadness in the history books.

But now, how much has the entire Ming gentry class been killed by you, and when you are here, with your control and means, no one in the people will dare to arrange me.

But after you left, my control slipped, and if that group of scholars didn't play with their lives and blacked me to death, then that group of readers was incompetent.

Lao Zhu felt Chongzhen's resentful eyes, but he didn't care at all.

We killed so many people during the Hongwu period, and I didn't see many people hacking me, you yourself are not capable enough, you can't handle those scholars, then it's no wonder that I.

Besides, Lao Tzu used your identity to leave you so many merits, no matter how dark those people hacked you, these exploits could not be erased, it was more than enough to hold you to the first emperor of the ages, so you kid made a lot of money.

It's just a little infamy for you, and you actually get cheap and sell well.

Lao Zhu snorted coldly, ignored Chongzhen's resentful eyes, and continued to say to Zhu Cihong: "For Daming, after the people's will is technology, and technology comes from education. ”

"Although the vast majority of Daming's income is invested in education, this investment is definitely worth it."

"Now the popularization of agricultural tools and farming methods by the Civil Weapons Bureau has greatly improved the agricultural output of the Ming Dynasty, and when the productivity of the Ming Dynasty is raised, the silver consumed by education will not be so much."

"So if you have no choice, don't cut off the education of Daming."

"Tzu Hong understands."

Zhu Cihong is also a person who has been in science, so he naturally knows the importance of education, and when he heard Lao Zhu say this, he nodded without hesitation and agreed.

Seeing that Zhu Cihong agreed, Lao Zhu thought for a while, and then said: "Jinyi Wei has been split into three institutions, and the East Factory has also been broken up and reorganized into several departments. ”

"These two forces are a double-edged sword, it's not that we look down on you, you don't have our energy, and we don't have our diligence, so Dongchang and Jinyiwei, unless they have to, don't form them casually in the future, you can't grasp it."

After saying this, Lao Zhu thought carefully for a while, and then chattered for most of the day, explaining almost everything to Zhu Cihong.

But Chongzhen on the side felt that something was wrong the more he listened, and he always felt that Lao Zhu said these words as if he was supporting Gu.

After Lao Zhu finished speaking, he finally couldn't help but ask, "Grandpa, are you leaving?" ”

"Yes, I've been here for five years, and Daming is basically on the right track, as long as you follow the path we set, there will basically be no problems."

"It doesn't make much sense for us to stay any longer."

Lao Zhu glanced at Chongzhen and Zhu Cihong, and said in a serious tone: "After all, we are not from the same era as you, don't expect us to think about anything, your era will ultimately depend on you." ”

Chongzhen heard Lao Zhu say this, and couldn't help but feel a little stunned in his heart.

Since this morning, he felt that something was not right, and when he heard Lao Zhu say those words just now, he felt even more wrong in his heart.

Unexpectedly, the premonition in his heart was actually true, and Grandpa Tai was really leaving.

To be honest, in the past five years, Chongzhen, who is used to doing everything by Lao Zhu, after hearing the news, the first thought in his heart was a little panicked.

Now that Daming is thriving, the territory is the largest in history, if Lao Zhu is gone, he is a little worried that he can't grasp it.

If something goes wrong, I'm afraid he won't even have the face to die in the future.

"Don't worry."

As if to see Chongzhen's panic, Lao Zhu opened his mouth to soothe, "Those silverfish have been cleaned up by us, and the current Ming Dynasty is using a new system, which is now perfect and very energetic." ”

"As long as you don't toss around, according to our system, plus those officials elected by the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China, it will not be a problem to continue to go step by step, and it will not be a problem to maintain it for decades."

Hearing Taizu say this, Chongzhen felt a little relieved in his heart, he was not a person who liked to toss blindly, and now he didn't have the idea of tossing blindly, since Taizu said so, then he would honestly be the son of heaven in the future.

Anyway, I still have a son, and if it doesn't work, what will happen to my son.

Just when Lao Zhu was about to leave, Wang Chengen hurriedly ran over, and after seeing Lao Zhu, he quickly knelt down and said, "Grandpa, Master Bi Mao Kangbi...... Pawn. ”

"I didn't expect him to go before me."

Hearing this news, Lao Zhu was a little stunned, many of the achievements of the Ordnance Bureau over the years were made by Bi Maokang.

Originally, he should have died in the seventeenth year of Chongzhen in history, but after three years of life, he still couldn't hold it after all.

Lao Zhu sighed slightly, and then said: "These things, Zhu Youzhen, you can just look at the reward." ”

"But remember one thing, that is, wealth can be left in the shade of the family, but the status must not be inherited, science is researched, not inherited, if this rule is broken, then the future of the Ming Dynasty will be wasted."

"Yes......"

Chongzhen nodded, and just when he wanted to say something, he found that Lao Zhu in front of him had disappeared, just like when he came, quietly.

He was silent for a moment, then looked at Zhu Cihong and said, "This throne, I will hold you for a few years first, and then I will succeed you after a few years when you are a little more mature." ”

Speaking of this, Chongzhen looked at Zhu Cihong, and then said in a resolute tone: "After you succeed to the throne, announce the matter of the great grandfather." ”

"Even if I am not good, I will not compete with the great grandfather, as for what the future generations think, then let them go."
