Chapter 123: Zhu Di's Promise

As a big tomorrow, Zhu Di really wants to do things, so the movement is not small.

Compared to him, Xu Jingchang is simply not worth mentioning.

The key is not that Xu Jingchang can't do it, but that the power of the two is fundamentally different.

Empress Xu looked at Zhu Di with an almost adoring look.

Your own masters, you have to give them some strength, let them see the courage of tomorrow.

Sure enough, Zhu Di said loudly: "I have decided, outside the Jubao Gate, build a fifty-mile city wall, circle an outer city, settle the redundant people in Beijing, and let the big guy live and work in peace and contentment!" ”

Fifty miles of walls?

Outer City!

Zhu Di! You're impressive!

Xu Jingchang's heart almost jumped out, this stimulation was really a bit beyond imagination.

In contrast, building a house for the artisans and giving them a place to live is a trivial matter that is not worth mentioning.

I give a city directly, who dares to compare with me?

As the saying goes, only by living in peace can we be happy.

When Yingtian first built the city, it was built as a capital.

Although the city is large enough to accommodate a million people.

However, the core of Yingtian is the imperial city, and the outside is divided by a number of yamen such as the Six Ministries and Nine Qings, the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, and the Jinyi Guard, plus Taicang.

There are not many places that can be left for the people to live, and the plots are scattered, which is very inconvenient.

After all, you can't get a blacksmith shop next to the Taimiao, right?

What should I do if I beat and beat every day, and I have alarmed the ancestors of the Zhu family?

Therefore, Yingtian is not a very suitable city for the development of industry and commerce.

Zhu Di is also clear about this.

Zhu Gaoxu wanted to build a worker's residence outside the Jubao Gate, but in fact, he also had the intention of establishing a workshop outside the city.

Land in the city is too expensive and too inconvenient.

As a result, this matter also made the courtiers mess up, and Zhu Gaoxu was so angry that he was like thunder.

But Zhu Di said, silly boy, Ling's pattern is too low.

Father directly gave you a city and let you toss it at will.

What do you think?

Your dad is funny, isn't he?

Of course, the construction of the outer city is definitely not for Zhu Gaoxu alone.

Anyone who wants to engage in industry and commerce can go to the outer city.

The outer city is next to the inner city, so it naturally has the convenience of the capital.

At the same time, the area is vast, the land price is cheap, it is a blank paper, it is convenient to show off your strengths, it is simply too good to be better.

In a short period of time, Xu Jingchang came up with dozens of thoughts.

God-given opportunity, my own opportunity has come.

Before Xu Jingchang could think clearly, Zhu Di said loudly: "The major event in the world is education, and the importance of education is not only to uphold people's hearts and cultivate morality. There is also the ability to rise, and there is a skill. I thought that the world's first private school run by Dingguo Gong was excellent. In the future, when the outer city is properly built, more schools can be built to teach practice and cultivate skills. ”

"In the future, the outstanding students who graduate from the academy can also enter the official school and participate in the imperial examination, and I will treat everyone equally and be hired according to their talents!"

"Okay!"

Zhu Di's announcement simply ushered in a round of applause.

Among them, Lin San and Tang Sai'er shouted the loudest.

They know all too well the importance of education, after all, they are the real beneficiaries.

Lin San was nothing more than a poor homeless man who almost starved to death on the streets.

But he entered the school, recognized the words, and became a typesetter by luck, so that he could earn hundreds of treasure notes every month.

With an official status, settled down, and a place to live, he established himself in the capital.

Just imagine, from a small city to the north of the drifting youth, in a short period of time, to the family with a house, how big is the span?

Lin San, who was excited, actually forgot that this was under the Fengtian Gate, and actually said directly to Tang Sai'er: "Sister, let's get married!" When you give birth to a boy in the future, let him study and take the imperial examination, maybe you can get a lady in the future! ”

Lady Fate?

Tang Sai'er was dumbfounded, this was a good thing she couldn't even think of.

Will it really fall on her head?

If this is the case, it will be good to die.

Your Majesty is really the Holy Lord of the Ming Monarch!

This thought welled up in the hearts of hundreds of people, and they were simply grateful.

And the courtiers were dumbfounded, this kind of thing can also be promised?

From what kind of school Xu Jingchang came up with, people of insight felt that it would become a disaster after a long time.

As it turned out, they were still conservative, and it didn't take long for them to come now.

Entering the official school and participating in the imperial examination, this will divide their cake.

In fact, the imperial examination is not an easy task.

Unless the god of learning possessed by Wenqu Xing, such as Huang Guan, a six-song god, can march forward, pass all the way, and easily win the throne.

Most students need to struggle and do their best to roll it.

Spell knowledge and talent, this is basic.

It is also necessary to have deep connections, be able to figure out the questions of the imperial examination, understand the examiner's intentions, and have strong connections...... to win.

Zhu Di only said yes, there are still 108,000 miles before he really fights out of the encirclement, passes through the single-plank bridge, and becomes an official.

But history tells us something else.

No matter how difficult it is, as long as you tear a hole, you will have the king of the volume to kill through the encirclement and successfully clear the customs. It's just a matter of time.

Xu Jingchang was extremely calm, his heart was so full of joy that he almost wanted to laugh out loud.

Although the imperial examination is not easy, he was a small town questioner in his last life who piled up countless exams.

Of course, to let the current Xu Jingchang specialize in eight shares and write an eloquent essay to please the examiner, it is too high to think of him.

But no matter what the exam, there are traces to follow, and the core rules will not change.

Xu Jingchang couldn't wait to write a syllabus for the exam.

If you really let yourself drum up a few jinshi, I'm afraid that the whole court will go crazy.

He couldn't help but look at Song Li, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites who was in charge of the imperial examination, and the secretary who was in charge of employing people...... It's really hard to decide whether to create a problem for them or not!

"I'm going to open Enke in the near future...... Since it is Enke, there is no need to be obsessed with the Four Books and Five Classics and the articles of the imperial examination. No matter what kind of talent you have, you can take the exam. I must be a meritocracy, and I will attract talents from all over the world. ”

As soon as they heard this, everyone instantly understood.

Xu Jingchang said that there is no middleman to make the difference, and the Son of Heaven is directly looking for service talents, Zhu Di listened to this suggestion, but he just suffered from no suitable opportunity.

Now it's out.

Can you object to it?

The hundred officials looked at each other, and no one dared to stand up.

After all, on the Golden Palace, the Son of Heaven is alone, and there are so many of them, so he is naturally not afraid.

But now although they are hundreds of officials, behind them are all the people!

Whoever dares to oppose these things, if he provokes the people, the people will rush up, and one person will drown them with a mouthful of spit.

There is no way, you can only follow the mountain and shout long live.

Zhu Di won easily, and the things that were full of resistance in the past are like cutting tofu with a quick knife today, which is too easy.

Do you want to try a few more?

Zhu Di looked up at the sky and found that it was approaching dusk.

The sun is shining, and the sky is full of red clouds.

That's a good sign!

"I still have something to say!"

As soon as they heard this, the ministers almost fell down in fright, don't come, we can't bear it!

Zhu Di deliberately paused for a long time before he said slowly: "So many subjects and people have come to see me, and I am not a rude son of heaven...... I have sent an order to the imperial dining room to prepare meals for the big guys, so that the big guys can eat enough before leaving. ”

Hearing this, the ministers breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately they weren't doing something.

But soon it was found that the people were kneeling down one after another, and some people were in tears, thanking God.

Your Majesty has the people in his heart!

In fact, so many people, if they want to make a big meal, it is impossible.

It is impossible for the imperial dining room to bear it.

The real main force is Jinyiwei.

After all, Jinyiwei is also a military establishment, and it is not very difficult to make a big pot of rice.

Set up a large pot, pour in the japonica rice, and cook the porridge over high heat.

In addition, some people added vegetable leaves, salt, and a little sesame oil that they were usually reluctant to put in, and within half an hour, a pot of steaming vegetable porridge was already cooked.

On the other side, there are people steaming steamed buns and preparing dishes and chopsticks.

Finally, at sunset, Jin Yiwei carried pots and pans, vegetable porridge and steamed buns, to the middle of the crowd.

One serving per person, which is not good, but it is definitely enough to eat.

Many of the people who received the food from the royal family wept.

At this time, Zhu Di sat on the Fengtian Gate and even raised a big bowl.

"I eat with the big guys. Give me another ten years, and when the time comes, we will not drink porridge, we will all eat dry, not only dried, but also meat to eat during the New Year's holidays! ”

What a blessing it is to be able to eat the same thing as the Son of Heaven.

"Long live our emperor! Hooray! ”

The people have finished thanking, and when they look up, the ceremonial flowers bloom in the sky, instantly lighting up the night sky.

Zhu Gaoxu smiled at his father and said, "The child adds color to his father's amusement." ”
