Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Encounter of Monarchs and Ministers

But the carriage stopped, and the little eunuch who led the way said, "Be careful, don't make noise." Just follow me. ”

Between the words, there is some sneaky meaning.

Ding Xian had a trace of bad thoughts in his heart. Of course, after a few yards, an eleven or twelve-year-old child sat in the pavilion, looked at Ding Xian, and said, "You are Mr. Ding." ”

When Ding Xian saw it, his heart was half cold, he knew that this was definitely not the prince. It should be the son of the crown prince. But he quickly stabilized his mind. After all, for him, it is also an opportunity to meet his grandson.

Ding Xian looked at the young man with a newspaper in his hand. He saluted and said, "No, it's Ding Xian." ”

This child is Zhu Yunwen, and Zhu Yunwen has been extremely depressed for a while.

The prince thought about it, but he still didn't want Zhu Yunwen to get involved in politics, after all, in the prince's opinion, Zhu Yunwen had no future. Neither he nor his father would choose Zhu Yunwen as his grandson. The better and more conspicuous Zhu Yunwen's performance is, the more miserable his future will be.

As for the Lu family? I'm so sorry. The prince didn't know that the knot between Zhu Xiongying and the Lu family. But the prince still didn't think much about it.

Because he doesn't care at all.

Although the crown prince is lenient, his so-called leniency is based on the ideology of the establishment of the low-level emperor. Although he couldn't do Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to kill his mother and keep his son, he didn't care too much anymore, after he died, what happened to the Lu family?

Compare the importance of Jiangshan Sheji, just a woman, what a way. Moreover, Lu is a mother after all. Zhu Xiongying wants a good reputation, so he won't do too much.

Of course, even if it's too much. It doesn't matter.

He couldn't see it anyway.

Out of this idea, the prince found several teachers for Zhu Yunwen, all of whom were old-fashioned and very old-fashioned. In educating Zhu Yunwen, this matter is very strict. What is taught is nothing more than the Four Books and the Five Classics. I don't even dabble in history books.

The royal child is very precocious. Zhu Yunwen didn't know at first. But it soon became clear.

When the prince was in the main hall, he certainly studied the Four Books and the Five Classics. But a subset of history, the art of war. and so on, almost everything, and then Zhu Yuanzhang's words and deeds, this is the education model that an emperor should have, but to read the four books and five classics to be a showman.

It's not that the Four Books and the Five Classics aren't important. Rather, the emperor needed more knowledge beyond the Four Books and the Five Classics.

At this time, how could Zhu Yunwen not know the prince's thoughts.

It's just that on the one hand, Zhu Yunwen himself is ambitious. No, it should be that dragon son and phoenix grandson, who has no idea about that chair? On the other hand, Zhu Yunwen is also very worried about his future. Worried about your mother and wanting to make a difference, but don't know what to do?

After thinking about it, the only thing Zhu Yunwen could do was that no one taught him these things, he read them himself. And in order to understand the changes in the government and the opposition, reading the newspaper has also become something that Zhu Yunwen has to do every day.

And Ding Xian, the first person in the newspaper industry today. Several articles, such as Huang Zhong Dalu, are first-class figures, which naturally entered Zhu Yunwen's eyes.

There are some problems that have been hidden in Zhu Yunwen's heart for a long time. He didn't know who to ask. Only then did he find an opportunity to invite Ding Xian over.

Zhu Yunwen said: "There are a few things that I don't quite understand, and I specially asked Mr. Ding to give me some advice today." ”

Ding Xian was already based on Zhu Yunwen's age and body shape at this moment, speculated about Zhu Yunwen's identity, and said, "Your Highness, may I ask." ”

Zhu Yunwen said: "Look at you alone, you are talking about the harm of opening the sea." It can be called a disaster for the country and the people. But isn't there any benefit to this opening of the sea? I've heard that last year, there were nearly five million taels of silver. Shandong disaster relief, Goryeo campaign, mostly out of customs silver? Could it be that this is not of any benefit to the court at all? ”

Ding Xian pondered for a moment and said, "This matter depends on where His Highness looks at it. The things of the world. It has never been the Tao of the Dao, not the of the Dao. It is a great thing that the sea has been open for several years and the treasury is abundant. However, is this one thing really good for the imperial court? Your Highness, first of all, you must understand, who is the world of the Great Tomorrow? How should the world of the Ming Dynasty be governed? ”

When Zhu Yunwen heard Ding Xian say this, he immediately came to his senses. No one ever told him about these things. Zhu Yunwen leaned forward slightly and said, "Would you like to hear it?" ”

Ding Xian said: "The Son of Heaven and the scholars share the world, this Northern Song Dynasty Wen Yanbo's words are still golden and jade good words. You can fight the world immediately, you can't rule the world immediately, the strength of the cavalry of the former Yuan Dynasty is overwhelming in the world, even if it is the elite of this dynasty, it may not be able to match. But less than a hundred years and lost the world? Why not, is it the Yuan army that is killing each other? The military power is not there? No, in the fifth year of Hongwu, Wei Guogong raised hundreds of thousands of troops and fought a decisive battle with Wang Baobao, and almost wiped out the whole army. It can be seen that although Mongolia is weak, its military power is still there? ”

"Exactly, the Tartars do not know the benefits of scholars. There is no sharing the world with the readers. On the contrary, they make full use of those who are eager for quick success and quick profit, seeking temporary profits, and the righteousness of the world, and the financial management of the imperial court is like doing business. Let the merchants sell it. For a certain word, I can tax 100,000 yuan, and for another word, I can tax 200,000 yuan, and the latter will get it. As a result, the officials were in a hurry to loot, and the people died of paying taxes. It is today. ”

"Yes, Mencius saw Liang Hui's words, why should the king say profit, there is also benevolence and righteousness."

"Benevolence and righteousness are there, and the Tao is born, and the Tao is born and benefits follow, and there is no world to practice the way of benevolence and righteousness, and the treasury is useless."

"Heavy education, pure customs, the foundation of governing the country, the beneficiary, the end of benevolence and righteousness, and the thinness of virtue. Abandon the original and seek the end, and the minister does not know what it can do. ”

Zhu Yunwen listened, thought for a moment in his heart, and said, "Mr. Ding has a high opinion. It's just that why didn't the imperial grandfather accept this? ”

Zhu Yunwen felt that what he said was right, at least under Ding Xian's theory, it could be justified. Yes. Compared with a tax of a few million taels, a stable social system is what the imperial court should pay attention to. It's just that his question made Ding Xian difficult to answer.

He insisted on his opinion, so he had to say that Zhu Yuanzhang was wrong. But is Zhu Yuanzhang a person who can be blamed casually?

Especially for Zhu Yunwen, for his son and father, and for Sun Yanzu, it is a big taboo.

Ding Xian said: "The minister thinks that this is His Majesty's expedient measure. In the more than 20 years since the founding of the imperial court, wars have been frequent. The treasury is empty, so it is natural to take it from the sea and use it in northern Xinjiang. It's just that it's not a peaceful and prosperous scene, and when Kyushu stops fighting, this matter can be stopped. ”

Zhu Yunwen said: "When will it be?" ”

Ding Xian's heart turned around, leaned forward slightly, and said in a low voice: "Perhaps, when His Highness is in charge of the world." ”

When Zhu Yunwen heard this, his face changed suddenly, and he looked at Ding Xian deadly.

Ding Xian did not avoid Zhu Yunwen's eyes.

For becoming Zhu Yunwen's teacher, Fang Xiaoru is grateful and insensitive. This Ding Xian couldn't ask for it.

Although it is said that Ding Xian has gained a lot of prestige because of the people's newspaper. But the regret in Ding Xian's heart is getting bigger and bigger. That is because of the events of that year, he could not become an official of the court and enter the court. Even now, the fame spreads all over the world. But it's still white.

Therefore, giving Zhu Yunwen the opportunity to be a teacher is what he can't ask for.

When he asked and answered with Zhu Yunwen, he had already thought about it repeatedly. This is the only time to say such a thing abruptly, which is a temptation. It's also an adventure.

It depends on what Zhu Yunwen does.

Zhu Yunwen was silent for a while, and suddenly waved his hand, and all the guards and palace maids in the distance retreated. When Zhu Yunwen was talking, he had already noticed the distance, and these eunuchs and palace maids should not be able to hear them.

But Zhu Yunwen is still worried that only by driving these people out of his sight can he have a trace of peace of mind.

Only then did Zhu Yunwen say: "Mr. Ding, there are some things that you can't say. ”

Ding Xian saw Zhu Yunwen acting like this, and immediately understood in his heart: "It's done." If these words really can't be said, Zhu Yunwen will not react like this.

Zhu Yunwen is also helpless, he is trapped in the cage net at the moment and doesn't understand anything, many things are not as good as Ding Xian's understanding of things. He urgently needs a gap that will allow him to see what the real Ming is like. And be clear about the cracks of the power movement.
