Chapter 291: Fun People Find Fun
After sending away Jianyi, Xu Jingchang began to bow his head and calculate...... The six departments and nine qings were basically mobilized by themselves, the prince is still in Jiangxi, and now there is only one person left, and he must find something to do.
He is busy, and he can rest easy.
And this person is Zhu Di!
"Hu Shiyu, this is my son."
Xu Jingchang pointed to a little bean who was wearing open crotch pants and was running after a peacock, with a kind smile on his face.
Hu Hu couldn't help grinning when he saw it in his eyes...... Unsurprisingly, there was an accident...... Just when many people were staring at this child, the young master of the Xu family showed some signs of atavism.
This is not a curse, but that he is too skinny, his body is as strong as a calf, he is almost not sick, he runs outside in the cold, and the subordinates who serve him are sick, and he is fine.
And when he caught Zhou, this kid didn't love anything, and directly grabbed a wooden sword.
At this moment, Zhu Di and Queen Xu were very happy, and they all said that the Xu family was going to produce a natural general again.
Xu Jingchang didn't think so, he felt that it was necessary to teach his son well, our old Xu family all used their brains, and hands-on things should be handed over to others.
"Hu Shiyu, come over more when you have time and get familiar with this kid...... Don't worry, if he doesn't obey, you just have to beat him, and you don't need to be polite. ”
Hu Hu nodded, but he was bitter in his heart, seeing that this little boy was pulling the peacock's tail and was competing, making the chickens fly and the dogs jump.
He subconsciously touched his beard, feeling that life would not be easy in the future.
However, Hu Hu was also a little pleased, the so-called opening up of thousands of miles is better than Qingtian's protection...... No matter how much you do by yourself, it is better to serve the young master of the Shangfeng family.
If you really teach this child well, your future will be worry-free.
Thinking of this, Hu Hu was full of energy and vowed to be a good teacher.
and a little doll who is still running, there is really nothing to say, just get acquainted with it, and then Hu Hu followed Xu Jingchang to the study.
Xu Jingchang asked casually: "What are the big projects in the capital now, which belong to the kind of projects that can show off their merits and show off?" ”
Hu Hu thought for a while, "Dingguo Gong, you have to say that there is too big to ...... However, there are also some quite large places that have just been completed, such as the vegetable market outside the Jubao Gate, the rebuilt school on the side of Guozijian, the Xiaguan Wharf, the grain warehouse, and so on. ”
Xu Jingchang said again: "Is there still a temple?" ”
"Yes, since the establishment of the martyrs' ancestral hall in Beiping, Yingtian has also established the Pantheon, and the Confucian Temple has also been rebuilt, increasing the weight of the hundreds of schools."
Xu Jingchang was overjoyed, "That's enough." By the way, how is Hu Shiyu's writing? ”
Hu Hu was very ashamed, "Dingguo Gong, it stands to reason that Xia Guan has also read some books, and he was lucky to be selected for Hanlin, but when it comes to writing, it is always better to solve them, and even Senator Yang can't compare, if it weren't for the failure of the Hanlin Academy, I wouldn't be qualified to come to the General Administration." ”
Xu Jingchang laughed, "That's what I want...... When you go back and draw up a few speeches, you must remember that you are not allowed to ask someone to write on your behalf, and you are not allowed to polish them, that is, your level, and you can hand it over to me within three days. ”
Hu Hui still wanted to say something, Xu Jingchang had already picked up the teacup, Hu Hu still understood, and quickly left.
When I got home, I started writing without delaying for a moment.
In fact, Hu Hu is modest, his writing is not as good as Xie Jin and Yang Pu, but the person who can be selected for Hanlin is also the top in the country, how can it be bad!
And listening to Xu Jingchang's meaning, he doesn't need to be too good at writing, that is, he must be approachable, that is, anyone can understand it, he saw the newspaper on the table, immediately grabbed it, took a closer look, and had an eyebrow in his heart.
Let's do it!
Three days later, Hu Hu took a few articles and handed them to Xu Jingchang.
Xu Jingchang looked at it, and suddenly smiled with a smile on his face, "Yes, this pen that Hu Shi reads is really powerful." But I'll remind you of a little trick. ”
"What trick?"
Xu Jingchang said: "For one thing, you need to prepare at least three manuscripts, and they must have different styles and different emphasis, understand?" ”
Hu Hu was surprised, and this said?
He said bitterly: "Dingguo Gong, in fact, Xia Guan wrote five copies, and I just chose the most favorite one to give to you." ”
Xu Jingchang was slightly stunned, and said with a smile: "Remember, don't choose by yourself next time." ”
"The lower officials understand that the lower officials must let the Dingguo Gong elect."
Xu Jingchang said again: "If I am asked to choose everything, then I will be very tired, what do I need you for?" ”
Hu Hu was stunned again, what kind of road is this Dingguo Gong?
Xu Jingchang said with a smile: "It's not your own decision, and you can't push everything to the top...... You have to make Shangfeng think that he can call the shots, but in fact, the things he calls the shots are all decided by you early. Do you understand? ”
Hu Hu became more and more stunned, and the words of this Dingguo Duke became more and more difficult to understand.
"Xiaguan, Xiaguan doesn't understand it for a while, but Xiaguan will think hard and strive to understand it as soon as possible."
Xu Jingchang smiled, then took Hu Hu's manuscript, got into the carriage, and went directly to the Qianqing Palace.
Zhu Di was quite happy to see him coming, "I just said that the affairs of the imperial court affairs have been settled so soon?" ”
Xu Jingchang smiled: "It's not so fast...... There are some things that are still controversial, for example, the imperial court should provide relief to the victims, but for the sick people, do they need relief? ”
Zhu Di frowned, "It's really pitiful to be sick, and if you can save it, you have to save it." ”
Xu Jingchang spread his hands, "Your Majesty, the treatment of diseases is a bottomless pit, not to mention that there are not so many doctors in the world, what if quacks kill you?" ”
"This ...... Then don't save it. ”
Xu Jingchang said: "Your Majesty, but there are some plagues, thousands of them at every turn, across states and counties, it doesn't matter?" ”
Zhu Di frowned, and snorted: "I ask you if you want to care, you are giving me a problem now, what is going on with you?" ”
Xu Jingchang said with a smile: "Your Majesty, governing the country is not a matter of one or two days, and the responsibility of the imperial court is not something that can be clearly explained in three sentences or two sentences. Let the courtiers be busy first, there is one thing here, Your Majesty will be on the throne for five years next year, should you make a summary and take stock of the results, especially for many achievements, from the inside to the outside, from top to bottom, to make a detailed inventory. Then tell the world, and you can also comfort Emperor Taizu. ”
When Zhu Di heard this, he immediately became interested, this proposal was too good, and it completely met his appetite.
"Tell me, what are you going to do?"
Xu Jingchang said: "Your Majesty, there is still some time, and great feats, such as pacifying Annan, attacking Wara, recovering Monan, and opening up Liaodong...... There is no rush for these things, maybe next year, there will be more things to say. Now the meaning of the minister is to focus on the people's livelihood and economy, and to see the big from the small. For example, the largest silk workshop in Yingtian, the newly built Xiaguan Wharf, and the reconstruction of Guozijian, Yingtian Outer City...... Your Majesty has done too many things, and the people are grateful to the people. What I mean is that Your Majesty should go to these places to see, and also get in touch with the people to understand the latest people's livelihood situation. ”
Xu Jingchang added: "It's not that Your Majesty doesn't understand the people's livelihood, it's true that the Ming Dynasty is changing with each passing day and changing a lot, and Your Majesty must keep up." ”
Zhu Di groaned slightly, and said: "I have seen the workshop of the third child, and I have seen a lot of it in Beiping some time ago, which is really different from the past. ”
Xu Jingchang said with a smile: "Your Majesty, as the lord of a country, the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, every move will affect all directions. In the past, every spring, the Son of Heaven and the Empress would personally cultivate the silk reeling and persuade the farmers to teach mulberry. Now the foundation of the Ming Dynasty is not only agriculture, but also industry and commerce, Your Majesty to see more, boost morale, boost the people's heart. Wouldn't it also show that the court values them? ”
When Zhu Di heard this, he was completely moved, and couldn't help laughing: "You, it's really a ghost idea." In the past, I wanted to go out to take a look, but the courtiers did everything possible to stop me, but this time, I want to take a look, who can stop it? ”
Xu Jingchang handed a list to Zhu Di, "Your Majesty, this is a key project related to the people's livelihood and economy that the minister has just sorted out, and your Majesty can choose from it or look for it again, as long as it is reported to King Zhao before making a decision." ”
"The third? Why should I listen to him? ”
"No, Your Majesty, don't get me wrong, it's for King Zhao to prepare, arrange the pen, and write what Your Majesty needs."
Zhu Di sighed, "Okay, I know it in my heart." ”
Xu Jingchang then said goodbye, and when he left, Zhu Di was not calm.
This time I can leave the palace openly!
Hurry up and call your daughter-in-law, and the two of them can go out for a walk together.
Zhu Di is so satisfied, Xu Jingchang, this kid is getting better and better at doing things, and he is really the virtuous minister of the country.
Xu Jingchang came out of the palace, he was also very satisfied, and now he has more than a dozen locations in his hands...... Even if it is once every three days, it can keep Zhu Di busy for a month.
That is to say, in a month's time, our Yongle Emperor will reap cheers and bow, and the Ming Dynasty will change with each passing day and develop rapidly...... Then the heart is satisfied, happy and happy.
Then you can smoothly control the court situation, do whatever you want, and do something you like.
After thinking about it, Xu Jingchang decided to call his old father-in-law over.
Huang Guan said: "What is Dingguogong's idea, he actually found me?" ”
Xu Jingchang said: "That old Taishan, will you go to the Qinhuai River?" ”
Huang Guan took a sip of tea and almost squirted out, "Can this be said!" ”
Xu Jingchang said: "That's not what I mean, in fact, I've thought about it repeatedly...... In the best place in the capital, there is a world-famous Qinhuai River, which has made so many women, destroying youth and destroying ambition, which is really not a glorious thing. ”
Huang Guan froze and said curiously: "Are you going to close the Qinhuai River?" ”
"No, no, no." Xu Jingchang said: "I never thought about it that way...... I mean, is there drama everywhere? For example, Kun dialect, such as Fengyang flower drum, such as Henan Henan opera, there are also folk wooden board drum books in Beiping. ”
Huang Guan said: "What do you mean, do you want to get these to the Qinhuai River?" ”
"That's right, the prosperous Ming Dynasty, there should also be some elegant embellishments, up and down to enjoy together, elegant and vulgar appreciation, don't you say?"
Huang Guan thought for a moment, then smiled: "Wonderful, really wonderful!" I agree! No, it's not, it's the Ministry of Rites that supports it! Huang Guan stroked his palms and laughed, "From now on, will we be able to go to the Qinhuai River openly?" ”
Xu Jingchang was stunned, and subconsciously said: "Have you been sneaking around before?" ”
