When Zhu Yujian saw the emperor, he felt a little surprised. Not in the palace, but in the shade of the trees, not in dealing with official business, but in the two little princesses close and spoiled.

"Excuse me, flat." The Emperor glanced up, smiled and said, "Give me a seat." ”

"Long live Long En of Wechen Xie." Zhu Yujian respectfully finished saluting before respectfully sitting down on the embroidery pier.

The emperor touched the faces of the two little girls before asking the maid to take her daughter away.

Although he can make casual gestures, some things are still difficult to say in front of his daughter.

The girls didn't go far, but went to play in the pool not far away. There are koi fish raised by the emperor, and they swim in groups, and they are very beautiful to swim in.

Listening to the crisp laughter, the emperor's face was also peaceful, and his mood was relaxed and happy, and he said to Zhu Yujian: "You are very good, you have set an example for the children of the sect, and I will not treat you badly." ”

Zhu Yujian hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Long live the award, Weichen doesn't dare to be it." ”

The Emperor waved his hand and said, "No need to be humble, I am telling the truth. ”

After a pause, the emperor said with emotion: "From Taizu to the present, the clan has been hundreds of thousands, and the country will be eaten up sooner or later. You must know that this is not to raise hundreds of thousands of people who just want food and clothing, but to be treated with fine clothes and food. ”

Zhu Yujian pursed the corners of his mouth and hung his head slightly, presumably the emperor couldn't see it. Even though he is telling the truth, he is not.

Of course, he persuaded his father to give up the name of the vassal king, which was also in line with the emperor's wishes. As for what the emperor said about not being treated badly, he believed it, and believed it very much.

The emperor lowered his eyes, pondered for a moment, raised his eyes to look at Zhu Yujian, and asked slowly, "What are your plans, let's talk about it first." What I want to give you may not be what you think. ”

Of course, Zhu Yujian had his own ideas, and he had plans before he came, and when he heard the emperor's inquiry, he hurriedly bowed down and said: "Weichen has been ordered by Banzai to inspect outside, supervise and punish local illegal officials, but he has some experience. ”

The emperor nodded lightly and said, "The Inspectorate can also go." Well, I'll think about it again and consult with my ministers. ”

Replacing officials with knights is also a way to rectify the clan. It's a pity that there are not many clansmen who are willing to learn government affairs and have the ability to serve the people or the country, and it is not as easy as getting something for nothing.

Moreover, there are risks in being an official, if you make a mistake and are deposed, even Juelu and the official position will not be earned.

Of course, there are other courses to make a living in Zongxue, but you may be able to get rich by working hard, but wouldn't it be better to earn a fortune by doing nothing?

Therefore, Zongxue also has the children of the sect to study, but basically they are all low-grade, with a large family population and difficulty in feeding.

Comfort and enjoyment are truly immersive. The emperor knows more about human nature, isn't he the same? If you don't want the emperor to be a carpenter, the idiot will be tired.

But the emperor considered himself a good leader, and contributed greatly to the revival of the Ming Empire, although many people secretly scolded him for being a "faint king".

For Zhu Yujian, the emperor intends to reuse it, after all, this is a rare benchmark for the clan. Moreover, from the perspective of Zhu Yujian's character, he also appreciates it.

Originally, the emperor wanted to move the vassal kings to new overseas territories, and Zhu Yujian was the first. But listening to Zhu Yujian's meaning and the process of overseas land expansion, the emperor still delayed this plan.

Overseas new territories, or overseas territories, the emperor thought that both definitions were okay. Although the meaning is not exactly the same, there is a possibility of transformation.

"You have also reached the age of marriage, and Tang Shizi is not in good health." The emperor did not immediately decide on Zhu Yujian's mission, but cared about his personal problems, "If there is a woman who you think is suitable, I will be the master for you." ”

The marriage of the vassal king, especially the main wife, is not something that can be decided casually, and whether the Ministry of Rites can approve it or not is a hurdle. Concubines have no name, and the court naturally doesn't care, but the meaning is completely different.

Zhu Yujian couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, he didn't expect the emperor to ask about this, it was really difficult to answer, so he had to smile and hang his head slightly.

The emperor smiled slightly and continued: "For the clan, I have already relaxed many restrictions, and I don't want to put more restrictions on marriage. ”

Of course, the emperor's idea was not only to give Zhu Yujian, or the clan more freedom. The previous draft girl system cost the people and money, but the emperor wanted to abolish it.

Zhu Yujian didn't know what the emperor thought, and he didn't have the consciousness of free love, so he thought for a while, bowed down and replied: "When Weichen goes back and asks for his father's consent, he will play long live." ”

The prince of Tang Wang, that is, Zhu Yujian's father, is indeed in poor health, and has been locked up by the ruthless old Tang King for so many years, and it is inevitable that he will be hungry and full, weak and sick.

Zhu Yujian felt that marrying a wife while his father was alive, or even having a child, was also a comfort for his father.

The emperor talked to Zhu Yujian for a while, and felt that the experience of running errands abroad the year before last was really of great help to Zhu Yujian. In some ways, Zhu Yujian is more mature than Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters.

This is also caused by different life experiences, Zhu Yujian and his father have lived as prisoners for so many years, and their minds have obviously been sharpened very strong.

Moreover, character determines success or failure, which is also very important, and the emperor also saw the difference between Zhu Yujian and Zhu Youzhen.

Zhu Yujian received the emperor's encouragement and encouragement, and when he saw that there was no more orders, he retreated.

The emperor completely relaxed, got up and walked to the rocking chair not far away, and in the leisurely swaying, a cool breeze was blowing, and a crisp laughter was heard in his ears.

"The Emperor." Li Chengcheng sat next to him, peeling grapes and feeding them into the emperor's mouth.

The emperor tasted the sweetness in his mouth, but his thoughts were still on the problem dealt with by the clan.

Not to mention far away, there are three kings waiting in the capital to take up the domain. King Xin, King Gui, King Rui, the emperor is not ready to let it out.

It is too expensive, and when the catastrophe is approaching, the imperial court must save money if it wants to support its finances.

"How much money is left?" The emperor casually asked his butler, opened his mouth and ate another grape.

Li Chengcheng didn't have to think about it, so he reported it as it was.

The emperor was silent, and only after a long time shook his head slightly, not knowing what plan he had denied.

"The Emperor." Wang Tiqian cautiously came over to report: "Sun Yuanhua came to see him. ”

The Emperor nodded, got up and walked back to the main hall. For courtiers like Sun Yuanhua, it is still necessary to be more formal, which is also a kind of importance to Sun Yuanhua.

Although preparing for the catastrophe of the peak of the Xiaoice Age, the emperor still invested a lot in the Academy of Sciences. The scientific and technological progress of the Ming Empire is also a manifestation of the strength of the country.

For example, the large project of building slabs and rails has been planned, surveyed, and ready to be implemented.

Although the development of the steam engine was slow for the emperor, the increase in transportation capacity was still an effective means of dealing with catastrophes.
