Chapter 146: For the happiness of the people of the Ming Dynasty

Now, what makes Zhu Youxiao a headache are those Xu Fuyuan, Xia Yunyi and others who are conducting closed learning.

Zhu Youxiao's original intention was very good, and he wanted to be a remote guide, so he specially told Xu Fuyuan and others that if there were any problems, they would record them and hand them over to their subordinates to pass them on to him. Then, he passed the answer back.

But I didn't think that these guys had just come into contact with new knowledge and new things, and before they began to study deeply and think about themselves, they raised many questions.

When Zhu Youxiao saw the paper full of articles, his head was big. As long as you continue to read the book, you will naturally understand that it is rare that such a childish and ridiculous question will not be asked.

was so angry that Zhu Youxiao approved the three words "read the book", and immediately ordered that the question of these bastards should not be submitted again within a month, and let them figure it out by themselves.

It's better for the children to worry, Zhu Youxiao rolled his eyes, retracted his thoughts, and showed a warm smile, facing the good children of Shaoying Academy.

Eat well, dress warmly, don't have to work hard, and are not despised by white eyes, the children have regained the happiness of childhood, and they no longer have the appearance of yellow muscles and thin muscles, and they are all very energetic.

After carefully looking at the scroll in his hand, Zhu Youxiao bowed slightly, looked up at Xiao Ye and praised: "Yes, I learned very well, I basically answered it correctly, and it doesn't hurt to be a little sloppy." ”

Xiao Ye bowed in thanks, and replied reservedly and modestly, "Long live the praise." Xiao Yeding will be doubly serious, and strive for a full score in the autumn exam, so that Banzai is gratified. ”

"Good. I get a full score in the exam, and I will be rewarded. "Zhu Youxiao is very optimistic about Xiaoye, steady and decent, with the demeanor of a captain, and can even be half a counselor.

A small figure squeezed to the front, took advantage of the night to retreat, and hurriedly ran over, presented the paper in his hand, and shouted: "Long live, long live, I scored 100 points in May." ”

Zhu Youxiao smiled even more happily, every time he came, he could see the little girl running and screaming, I don't know where to run today, I don't feel very embarrassed when I don't see it!

I took the paper and looked at it, and I answered the math really well, and there was such progress in less than a year, which is quite amazing. Zhu Youxiao was a little surprised, Xiao May is really a smart girl.

May blinked with big eyes and looked at the emperor expectantly, waiting for the emperor to praise him. As a reward, just give more candy.

"It's good, it's progressing fast."

Zhu Youxiao stretched out his hand to beckon, and when the little girl approached, he touched her hair affectionately, and said with a smile: "I just said, there is a reward for full marks." Hmmm—"

After a deep groan, he reached out and took off the ornament around his waist, tied it to the little girl, and said with a smile: "This is my reward for you, you must continue to work hard and study hard!" ”

May's little head nodded happily, thought about it, knelt down and kowtowed neatly, and said crisply: "Long live the reward of the slave family." ”

Hahahaha, Zhu Youxiao was amused by the title of a slave and laughed. This little May is really a pistachio.

Watching May retreat beautifully, Zhu Youxiao looked around at the children below, and made the deepest oath in his heart: for your smiles, for your well-being, and for the children of the Ming Dynasty who cannot see it, I will also overcome all difficulties and create a brilliant Ming, so that you can stay away from war and chaos.

"You are the future of the Ming Dynasty!" Zhu Youxiao spoke loudly, full of sincere feelings, "Study hard and work hard, I believe that you will definitely become the pillars of the Ming Dynasty......"

"Reward!"

The emperor concluded with the simplest words, the most realistic expressions.

The palace people immediately brought up the prepared gifts on wooden plates, and the children immediately smiled, but they were quite regular. Xiao Ye and a few other small cadres maintained, lined up and selected one by one.

May fiddled with the exquisite ornaments on her waist, smiled so much that she couldn't close her mouth, and didn't go to the queue to receive the prize. A very conscious child, she thinks she already has it, so she is not greedy.

Zhu Youxiao liked this little girl very much, stretched out his hand again, called May to his side, and asked kindly: "You have to study hard and strive to pass the graduation exam next year!" ”

The so-called graduation examination is equivalent to a small promotion to junior high school, which is much lower than the level of later generations, but it is also equivalent to the fourth or fifth grade.

According to the current level of scientific and technological development, Zhu Youxiao believes that this level is also sufficient. Being able to read books and newspapers, and being able to calculate mathematics was already quite remarkable among the many people of the Ming Dynasty.

May blinked, grinned, and said, "There will be a graduation exam at the end of this year, why wait until next year?" ”

Zhu Youxiao smiled and said, "Even if you have a foundation, you are still young, and you can graduate after only one year of study?" ”

"So I'm going to really pass this year's graduation exam?" May tilted her little head, her long eyelashes fanned, and looked at the emperor very seriously.

Zhu Youxiao thought about it for a while, and teased the little girl: "If you can pass this year, I will have a heavy reward!" ”

May immediately got up and said, "Long live Lord, if you can pass at the age of five, don't reward you again, I want to make a request." ”

After a slight pause, May hurriedly added: "This request is not difficult at all, nor is it excessive. For Banzai, it's very simple, very easy. ”

Zhu You thought about it in school clothes, and nodded slowly in May's expectant eyes.

May smiled, her eyes curved into crescents, and said, "Then Long Live Lord tell the teacher, give me all the teaching materials, and allow me to listen to the class casually." ”

Zhu Youxiao expressed skepticism and said: "May, I can graduate next year, and I also have a heavy reward, so there is no need to rush it." ”

"Hooray, you don't believe May?" The little girl pouted, making her even more cute.

Zhu Youxiao stroked his forehead, and called Wang Tiqian a little helplessly, asking him to tell the teacher to provide convenience for May.

May was satisfied, or rather, confidently retreated.

Skipping a grade, maybe?! Zhu Youxiao watched the little girl walk away, very suspicious.

……………………

Like kids?! Zhu Youxiao affirmed that this was not entirely true.

Who doesn't love cute and well-behaved? The mischievous bear child is annoyed to watch.

How nice it would be if only a cute little girl like May! Zhu Youxiao stroked Concubine Zhang Yu's bulging belly, but he didn't say it, but he muttered like this in his heart.

"The Emperor." Zhang Yu'er couldn't change this title in private, with a gentle and happy smile on her face, "The concubine wants to give birth to a little girl, you won't blame me, right?" ”

Hey, why did you come up with me?

Zhu Youxiao blinked his eyes and said with a smile: "Boys and girls are the same, I like them all." ”

Zhang Yu'er nodded slightly, put her hand on the emperor's hand, and said: "When she gives birth to a little girl, the concubine will dress her up beautifully, and everyone will like it when she sees it." ”

The little princess is like a pink carving, staggering, looking up at the cute little face of the baby's fat, and calling his father in a milky voice......

Zhu Youxiao also seemed to see such a warm and sweet picture, and the smile on his face was even stronger, "Well, the beautiful little princess is very cute, I want to get it, and she looks as good as you." ”

Zhang Yu'er laughed, leaned her head on the emperor's shoulder, and slowly closed her eyes.

In two or three months, Zhu Youxiao continued to caress gently, and seemed to be able to feel the throbbing of life in his belly.

As a time-traveler, and a time-traveler who can change history. Because you know more, you often feel the weight of responsibility on your shoulders more and more.

Just like Zhu Youxiao saw the children of Shaoying Academy, and then felt that his child was about to be born, how could he make history repeat itself, make Shenzhou fall, and make all the people fall into fire and water?

On the surface, calmness and composure are not Zhu Youxiao's original intention, in fact, he is more eager than anyone else to exterminate Jiannu and completely eliminate the tragic possibility that makes him always frightened.

Even if the situation in Liaodong is now tilting towards the Ming army, Zhu Youxiao does not dare to take it lightly.

From five years of Pingliao to three or four years of slave extermination, Zhu Youxiao constantly advanced the schedule. Even if he can't change his lifespan, he will completely exterminate Jiannu before he closes his eyes.

In the seventh year of the Apocalypse, Zhu Youxiao firmly remembered this time. Although he constantly hinted that he had changed history, there was always a pimple in his heart.

If your daughters-in-law are angry, you can give birth to a boy. No matter how old he is, he will also become the emperor of the Ming Empire.

This is also to change history, through the designated minister of life, can continue to fulfill his wishes, let the people he sees, care for and love live in peace, right?

Zhu Youxiao closed his eyes slightly, and began to think crankily, but he couldn't hold it back all of a sudden.

…………………

As the saying goes: the ignorant are fearless. But there is one more saying: the ignorant are happy.

If you don't know, you don't have to worry too much, even if there is a flood tomorrow, you will sleep peacefully tonight.

In other words, compared with Zhu Youxiao, all people in Daming should be happy.

Of course, if you have to be more serious, including worries about food and clothing, and all other kinds of unhappiness, it can also be said that everyone is not happy.

Even if you are a rich man, or even an emperor, is there nothing to worry about?

Therefore, it is obviously inaccurate to define people's living situations or psychological states by whether they are happy or unhappy.

In a large compound in the Luda area, the wounded soldier Wu Yougui was in a rather contradictory state.

Wu Yougui has basically recovered, the severed hand has healed, and it is not even too painful.

His intact right hand was turning over and looking at the treatment documents of retired and disabled soldiers, which read: "Fifty acres of land, if you can't afford to work, someone will plough it for you, and you will be exempt from taxes for life......

Zhu Youxiao's military reform was the first to be introduced, starting from Dongjiang Town and gradually implemented in military towns across the country.

However, the changes brought about by the reform of the military system to the Ming army were not only reflected in morale, mental state, and constant victories. There are also changes in the means of treatment, as well as an increase in the number of military doctors.

High alcohol sterilization and disinfection, binding or soldering iron to stop bleeding, suturing wounds......

In fact, in addition to these creative ones, there were also many ways to heal injuries in ancient times. It's just that there are very few military doctors in the army, and there is not enough attention to ambulance.

And even now, there are still not many military doctors in the Ming army. But according to the emperor's instructions, many soldiers with quick hands and feet were drawn out to learn and master simple treatment methods.

Although these "medical soldiers" are not much better than Mongolian doctors, some primitive and simple treatment does reduce the mortality rate of wounded soldiers.

Many of the wounded who were destined to die were saved as a result, even though the process of treatment was often extremely painful for them.

And Wu Yougui, who had one hand cut off in the battlefield battle, was one of the lucky ones who escaped death.

He did not bleed to death on the battlefield, nor was he sore to death while the soldering iron stopped the bleeding, and survived the infection period (which was the most common in ancient times), and recovered quite well.

Of course, Wu Yougui doesn't feel lucky yet, at least he has a lot of doubts.

One hand is gone, there is no problem in taking care of oneself, and general labor is also undertaken, but in the end it still casts a shadow on the future life.

More than a dozen acres of land, a cow, a small courtyard, and a daughter-in-law to have a few babies......

This used to be the life ideal of Wu Yougui and many Ming soldiers.

But now, Wu Yougui gently raised his arm, which had no hand, and looked at it blankly for a long time, and couldn't help but show a bitter smile.

became half a cripple, and he was about to quit the army, but the treatment documents for retired disabled soldiers aroused his longing and pursuit at this time.

As soon as the door curtain was raised, several Ming soldiers walked in, all of them were in his good robes, and surrounded them with a smile.

"What's going on?"

"I look more energetic than the other day, a good thing!"

"I said that Yougui must be fine, but you still don't believe it."

…………

Seeing the robes of his comrades-in-arms, Yougui temporarily put aside his complicated thoughts and greeted him with a smile.

"Fifty acres of land, there is substitution farming, and there is no tax for the rest of your life-" A Ming soldier with sharp eyes, stretched out his hand to take the treatment documents of retired and disabled soldiers, and after reading them carefully, he shouted and raised them in his hand, "This is really good, you don't have to worry about eating and drinking in the future." ”

Fifty acres of land is indeed a very attractive number, even if you rent it out without doing anything, it is almost enough for one person, or even a family.

Wu Yougui smiled and said, "It's very well written, I don't know if I can count it?" ”

"Why don't you count?" The soldier with the scar on his face widened his eyes and said, "This is the new constitution of the imperial court, and the documents have been read and spoken to us." ”

Wu Yougui blinked his eyes a little slowly, and said, "It turned out to be true, I thought it was just a piece of paper and sent it away!" ”

"Where to go, you have to agree to make a count." One soldier explained: "I think it's better for you to stay here and bring your family here." ”

Wu Yougui nodded and said, "I thought so, but there are so many fields for me?" ”

A small officer said with a look: "If the field is not enough, it will be discounted into silver, although it is less, and you don't need to work hard to cultivate it!" ”

"Brother Zhao, you still have a smart head." The soldier next to him complimented, turned to Wu Yougui and said, "With the silver, you can marry a daughter-in-law and live here in peace." As for the slaves, they will be handed over to us to fight, and you will be safe and sound, just rest assured that you will have a baby. ”

"In this way, I am really envious of Yougui, who can live the life of a wife and children with a hot kang head." Another soldier quipped.

"Isn't there a hand missing, isn't it still good for you to use it underneath?" The Scarface Soldier smirked and teased, "Otherwise, don't worry about the ugly handsome, get a few first." You have to be capable, and you don't have to worry about farming. ”

Several Ming soldiers joked without taboos, with both envy, expectation and longing, which greatly comforted Wu Yougui and diluted his sorrow.
