In the dining room of the inner house, Ma watched the waiter set up the lunch, and told him to boil the medicine, and saw Zhu Yuanzhang walking in angrily.

Hurriedly stepped forward.

The expression was worried: "Xianggong, what happened?" ”

Regarding the title, after Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, Ma tried to change it with his children, but the result was that Lao Zhu himself couldn't get used to hearing about 'father', 'concubine' and the like, and felt that he had made the family angry, and he also reprimanded himself for just being an emperor, not an immortal.

So it was business as usual.

Hearing his wife's question, Zhu Yuanzhang took out a piece of music from his cuff and threw it on the ground: "Liu Ji, or that Liu Ji, I don't even remember the early dynasty on Chinese New Year's Eve, he is good, but he does not forgive, and gives him his resignation." ”

When Ma heard Liu Ji's name, his expression also sank.

On Chinese New Year's Eve a year ago, Liu Ji made a remark about the matter of Cui Ji, the head of the household department, and others being cursed the day before, and directly made Zhu Yuanzhang angry with a palpitating illness, and he has been taking medicine for the past few days.

I didn't expect it to come again.

Helping Zhu Yuanzhang to sit down at the dining table, Ma took the piece picked up by the waiter and read it.

Liu Ji did not mention the Chinese New Year's Eve a year ago, but said that his mother died and could not return to his hometown to keep filial piety, and he has always thought that he had regretted it all these years, and now His Majesty's achievements have been accomplished, and he also hopes to resign and return to his hometown to make up for filial piety.

Ma knew that her husband brought Liu Ji's resignation letter over to let her come up with ideas.

He obviously still wanted Liu Ji to stay.

If it was in the past, even if Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to keep Liu Ji, Ma would persuade her, and she also knew that Liu Ji was talented. However, considering her husband's body that was angry and out of trouble, from a wife's point of view, she would never want this to happen again.

came to sit down next to her husband, Ma said: "Xianggong, since this is the case, let that Liu Ji return to his hometown." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang just picked up the chopsticks, put them down when he heard the words, and did not hide his thoughts from his wife: "Now is the time to employ people, then Liu Ji ...... You also know that you still have the ability. Moreover, he also made great contributions to my laying down this country, as soon as I became the emperor, he was dismissed from office, so what do the officials and the people think? ”

Ma Shi signaled Liu Ji's recital to Lao Zhu: "Xianggong, this understands that Liu Ji wants to resign and return to his hometown to guard filial piety for his mother, how can Xianggong remove him from office?" Xianggong only needs to posthumously seal Liu Ji's parents, and then add an official level to Liu Ji, and let him return with honor, don't say that hundreds of officials and thousands of people, and the history books will not be able to make mistakes in the future. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and said: "Lady, it's not important, I'm saying that now is the time to employ people." ”

Ma Shi grabbed Lao Zhu's arm, and his eyes began to redden: "Xianggong, since it has been centrifuged, why do you want to stay?" Xianggong is the most important thing here in the concubine, Xianggong is the head of a country and the head of the family, Xianggong should be considered for the concubine and the children, and the concubine doesn't want to see Xianggong again because Liu Ji is angry. ”

Seeing that Ma began to shed tears as he spoke, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed, held Ma's little hand, was silent for a moment, and finally nodded and said: "In this case, I will let the Ministry of Rites discuss this matter later, and let Liu Jirong return." ”

Seeing that her husband no longer insisted, Ma withdrew his hand, wiped his eyes, and began to help Lao Zhu Shengfang, while taking the initiative to change the topic: "The matter of "Qi Min's Technique", can the Xianggong be awarded today?" ”

Ma is a well-known virtuous queen in history, there is no doubt that by refusing Zhu Yuanzhang's gift to the descendants, he made a good start, so that the Ming Dynasty had no relatives, but if it is said that it does not interfere in the government, it is not true.

A little reading of history can feel that Ma is often clear about all kinds of court affairs, and provides Zhu Yuanzhang with a lot of advice.

Even sometimes, Lao Zhu feels that his wife is a little too much, and Ma can still confidently say that he is the 'mother of the world', and the mother cares about her children, what's wrong?

Ma mentioned "Qi Min's Technique", Lao Zhu's mood really began to improve, took the rice handed by his wife, picked up the chopsticks again and said: "It's handed down, and let the Hanlin Academy compile a book of calculations," Speaking of this, Lao Zhu added hatefully: "If Zhu Yuan doesn't say anything to live in seclusion for three years, it means that he has ten Liu Ji to leave, and I don't care." ”

Knowing her husband's temperament, Ma knew that Lao Zhu would also have a grudge against that Xiao Xiucai if she continued to talk about it, she didn't want her husband's mood swings to affect her body, so she smiled and took the initiative to help Zhu Yuan say good things: "That Xiaoxiu is only twelve or thirteen years old, she is still a doll, and her health is not good." Let him study for two or three years with peace of mind, and take care of his body, according to what he said, by then the prime minister has also calmed the world, and he can do his best. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head while picking up the rice and said: "The more I think about it these days, the more I feel that his knowledge can be used now, and there is no need to wait for three years." According to his book list, I will continue to rewrite the compulsory classics for readers all over the world in the future, but this is all slow work. He must have a faster way, he said at the time, the study of economics is only one of the hundred, listen, one of the hundred, just refuse to disclose it in advance. ”

Ma Shi also picked up a bowl of rice, couldn't help but ponder together, and said: "Or maybe that Xiaoxiu has a hard time, three years is not a long time, and it will pass in a blink of an eye, Xianggong is still patient." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted, but he remembered it again, and said to Ma: "Don't let people move the cabinet in the bedroom, tomorrow I will personally take the rosewood box to the new palace." ”

The Ministry of Rites has chosen the time for the old interior to move to the new palace on the seventh day of tomorrow, but some important things here have begun to move out in the past two days.

Ma Shi nodded when he heard this: "The concubine knows that she is powerful, and she will not let people move." ”

Speaking of which, it is inevitable that I will be curious again.

What is the content of "Book from Heaven"?

Considering the mystery in it, and thinking about the lessons that many wise emperors like Emperor Qin and Han Wu in ancient times inevitably fell into, Ma had already made up his mind that he must follow it in the future to make sure that what Xiao Xiucai offered was indeed not a way to ask for immortals.

If it is true, she can say good things for the other party at this time, and when the time comes, she will still not be polite at all.

The husband and wife chatted like this, Lao Zhu quickly finished a bowl of rice, asked Ma to serve another bowl for himself, and said another thing: "This morning, the good chief also mentioned a matter, saying that he wanted to follow the old system of the Yuan Dynasty, and what kind of Chinese book order should be made by sealing our standard. The Zhongshu order is to ask us to open a separate government to recruit subordinate officials, how is this different from separating the family? The Yuan room is often divided by brothers, and fathers and sons fight, is it caused by the separation? Such tattered rules, what old rules can we follow? I thought about it, so I let the courtier also serve as various princely subordinate officials at the same time, so that the family is not separated, but also allows Biao'er to read the court and learn the way to govern the country. ”

Ma paused the meal and listened carefully, pondered for a moment, smiled and nodded: "This is a big deal, but it depends on the public." ”

Lao Zhu followed and chattered again: "Those rotten Confucians, what old system do they have to follow at every turn, and even the three emperors and five emperors can be moved out for me, as if the rules of the previous dynasty were all golden rules." If the rules of the previous dynasty were right, how could I get this country? I thought about it, in the future, I must make a set of our own rules of the Zhu family, set up it as the ancestral training, and set all the rules and regulations to death, so as not to affect our future generations with the rules of the previous dynasty. ”
