77 short-sighted
"......" Zhang Yifan was speechless for a while when he heard this, and then continued: "Fifth brother, you follow the fourth brother, and now you are mainly training?" ”
"Well, yes!" Zhu Wu listened, nodded and said, "It is estimated that soon after His Royal Highness's wedding, it is likely that he will return to Zhongdu to lead troops." ”
Zhang Yifan listened and nodded. The ability of this Yongle Emperor to lead troops in battle must not be said, otherwise, it would be impossible to counterattack. Although he was only sixteen years old at this time, he could see some traces of doing great things from the way he did things. Not to mention anything else, just in terms of dealing with him, you can feel it.
If that old classmate Zhu doesn't marry his daughter to himself, he will help Zhu Di harm him if he can't go back!
This old Zhu classmate is really short-sighted, looking at his system of stiptory, by the way, and the cement, he has explained to him how to use it, and as a result, he is sold as a monopoly like salt and iron, and even rewards the minister! I have explained it so clearly, and I still don't know how to use cement correctly?
As far as he set so many systems at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, many of them were because of the problems he saw, just thinking about the present, I thought it was a great practice, hehe!
However, the fact that he left this cement workshop for the village community is okay, and you can give him some pointers and let him know that there are many problems in his system design! Of course, the premise is that you can marry Jingjing.
Zhang Yifan was eating and thinking about these things, when he suddenly found that someone was probing his brain at the door and didn't dare to come in.
He knew that the people in the village were afraid of Zhu Wu and them, and they happened to have eaten almost enough, so he walked over and found that it was Liu Wu who was shrunk at the door with a few people.
"Fifth Uncle Liu, what's the matter? Come in and talk! ”
When Zhu Wu heard this from behind, he couldn't help but jump a few times out of the corner of his eye, and then pretended not to hear it.
Liu Wu still didn't dare to go in, so he said to Zhang Yifan at the door: "Today, there are a lot of outsiders in the village, and the ones who abide by the rules are fine, and many of them are still unruly, making the village restless, what do you think about this?" ”
Although he said this, his eyes were looking into the room. The meaning is obvious, the people of Yanwangfu are here, if someone makes trouble, I hope the guards of Yanwangfu can come forward.
In this regard, Zhang Yifan definitely had no opinion, so he nodded and agreed.
However, when he told Zhu Wuyi about this, there was a problem.
I heard Zhu Wu remind him: "You have offended too many people, if you really have to be a colt in the future, it is nothing." If you can't be a colt in the future, there will be more trouble. As far as you Liujia Village come to make trouble, maybe there will be a Chinese military official! ”
Speaking of this, he thought for a moment and then added: "If it's just ordinary people making trouble in Liujia Village, it will definitely be useful for us to come forward." However, if it is a subordinate such as the Korean prince or the prime minister of the DPRK who comes to make trouble, he must know what kind of situation can make trouble, and even if we come forward, it is estimated that there is no way. After all, we are not His Highness himself. ”
"......" Zhang Yifan was a little speechless when he heard it. He had never thought of such a situation.
Sometimes, it's not a good thing for people to be famous!
The other guard listened and also reminded: "Didn't Your Highness send someone to say, the Korean public is small-minded, you have to be careful." Maybe there are really people from him in the future, and they will come to make trouble! ”
When Zhang Yifan heard this, he immediately began to think.
There is no doubt that at this time, everyone is afraid of one person, and that is Emperor Hongwu!
Or? A fox fake tiger might?
After thinking about it, I thought it should be possible. So, Zhang Yifan convened a meeting of the backbone of the village community.
At the same time, somewhere in the city, there was also a meeting.
To be precise, it's a confession.
And the man who sat on the throne and listened, listened to the proclamations of his subordinates, and his face became more and more ugly.
In the end, when he was left alone in the room, I saw that he was angry, and I heard him say to himself in a hateful voice: "Okay, you are a hundred rooms, you are too unkind to do this, right?" ”
Hundred rooms, is Li Shanchang's words, this person obviously has an opinion on Li Shanchang.
This person is none other than Hu Weiyong, the prime minister of the Ming Dynasty, after all, ordinary people are not qualified to have opinions on Li Shanchang.
The reason is also very simple, Li Shanchang's side wants to satisfy Zhu Yuanzhang and let Zhu Yuanzhang see his actions, so if the relationship with the Hu family cools down, it must be done more obviously.
This is obvious, not only Zhu Yuanzhang can see it, but Hu Weiyong can naturally feel it more, which is strange if Hu Weiyong doesn't mind. After all, Hu Weiyong has been trying to win over Li Shanchang, the first hero of the founding of the Ming Dynasty who had a great impact on the court situation, and united to fight against the imperial power.
"Hehe, don't think that I can't leave you!" Hu Weiyong gritted his teeth and said to himself, "Wait and see!" ”
Although he thought so, he was still not very happy in his heart.
After a while, he suddenly called a servant in and told him, "Spread the news secretly......
If Zhu Jingjing was mad in the harem, only the women present knew. When it comes to the affairs of the Li family, these women go back, at most, they just tell their masters behind closed doors, and the people outside basically don't know the situation.
Now Hu Weiyong doesn't mind adding another block to Li Shanchang and asking his subordinates to spread Zhu Jingjing's crazy words.
As for Hu Weiyong himself, from the next day, he put down his figure and no longer refused to meet those remote local officials who had no influence, so as to show his low profile as a prime minister and win over more officials with a virtuous appearance.
………………
Here in Liujia Village, the people in the city who went to visit began to hear stories about Emperor Hongwu from time to time when they went again.
For example, Emperor Hongwu has been to such and such a house, walked such and such a road, praised such and such things, and so and so on.
Anyway, Zhu Yuanzhang did bring civil and military officials to the scene, not the parties, and there was no way to verify the authenticity or exaggeration of the words of the villagers in Liujia Village. In short, after listening to the people from other villages, they felt that Liujia Village was full of the glory of the current emperor, which made people feel awe of the emperor and envy and respect for Liujia Village.
Even if a person is big, when he arrives in Liujia Village, if he wants to go wild, he must weigh his own life.
For example, if you kick a fence, some villagers jump out and say that this was touched by the emperor, how dare you kick it?
For example, if you dare to hit someone, he has shown his face in front of the emperor, and he will sue you when he turns around!
All this, anyway, is the idea of pulling the tiger skin as a banner and a fox and fake the tiger.
As long as you don't really have a sick brain, most people will behave and don't dare to come to Liujia Village to be an uncle! If things get bigger, then it may really go to the front of the palace and knock on the drum! This kind of thing has happened once.
As for Zhang Yifan himself, he is still learning to read and write with Zheng Jing, and by the way, he listens to the news from Nanjing every day. Of course, he also inquired about quiet news, but most of the time there was no news.
On the fifth day, Da Niu came back from the city and brought him back a message, saying that there were already rumors in the teahouse and restaurant in the city, saying that the eldest princess scolded the Korean prince for being a toad who wanted to eat swan meat, and could be a father, and even thought about marrying her! It is said that there are many people in the folk who sympathize with the eldest princess!
Zhang Yifan didn't know anything about the harem before, but when he heard about it at this time, he asked Zhu Di to understand the situation, and he couldn't help but appreciate Zhu Jingjing even more. This is a model woman who pursues the freedom of marriage and opposes feudal oppression!
He asked Zhu Jingjing about his current situation, and Zhu Di told him that Zhu Jingjing doesn't like to eat food anymore, and he paints when he has nothing to do, and the paintings are all about the mountains and rivers of Zhang Yifan or Liujia Village. The father was very annoyed and forbade the news to spread outside the palace.
In the end, Zhu Di warned Zhang Yifan that he must do his best not to disappoint Zhu Jingjing. Otherwise, he would really castrate Zhang Yifan.
As for Zhang Yifan himself, of course, he has worked very hard.
"Thousand Character Text", "Hundred Family Names", "Three Character Classics", and "Analects" have all been learned, and he knows most of the meanings, and there are still some things he doesn't understand, so he will know if he asks Zheng Jingxue.
But then, he had a problem.
If you can read, the next step is to write. As a result, Zhang Yifan's calligraphy skills were not good, and he wrote some words with a brush, if it was Mengtong's beginner, it would definitely be good.
However, Zhang Yifan only has less than a month to compete with the world's talents, and at this level of writing, he will definitely lose half of his points when he sees it.
What to do?
Zheng Jingxue was still hopeful at the beginning, thinking that Zhang Yifan was a genius in the sky, so he asked him to hurry up and practice calligraphy, maybe he could write in a few days like literacy.
However, in the end, Zheng Jingxue was disappointed.
Zhang Yifan's progress in calligraphy is very slow. Of course he didn't know that Zhang Yifan was strong in literacy, that was because he had the foundation of later generations, as for brush characters, he had not learned well in later generations, how could he learn them well at once!
So, Zheng Jingxue forced Zhang Yifan to practice calligraphy every day, but in the message to King Yan, he had already expressed his disappointment.
In this regard, Zhang Yifan himself is also anxious, but he does not have talent in calligraphy.
"Your handwriting is ugly, don't say it, it's too big!"
"Look, so, like this, look at what I write!"
“……”
Zheng Jingxue had the urge to write for Zhang Yifan, which made Zhang Yifan a little ashamed. There is no way, Zheng Jingxue's brush writing is very small but beautiful; However, his own handwriting is not small at all, and even a line can be of different thicknesses.
"I really can't help it, this brush is too soft!" Zhang Yifan looked at the brush in his hand and sighed in his heart, "This brush is too unfriendly to beginners!" ”
But there is no way, in this era, you can only adapt to this era, at least today's Zhang Yifan, he can't adapt to this era.
As a result, there is only day and night to practice calligraphy.
He didn't know that his manuscript with a brush was sent to King Yan's mansion, and even sent to the East Palace and Zhu Yuanzhang's desk, and even other people who paid attention to him had seen his authentic handwriting.
For example, on the side of the Korean government, Li Shanchang heard Ding Bin's report and suspected that Zhang Yifan was pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. No, Li Qi, the prince of South Korea, laughed reassuringly: "Just him, dare to compete with me for talent?" ”
Yan Wang Zhu Di, Prince Zhu Biao and the Crown Princess and others saw it and shook their heads in disappointment.
Even Zhu Yuanzhang saw it, and he looked contemptuous.
Although his background is worse than Zhang Yifan, and he has been fighting on the battlefield and has every opportunity, he still finds time to study, not only writes many times better than Zhang Yifan, but also can recite poems.
In short, as long as someone reads Zhang Yifan's writing, they have basically denied him.
is also the only one who is still practicing calligraphy. In the middle of this, a small and small thing happened in the court.
It was Ye Boju, who had written a book before that caused Zhu Yuanzhang's anger, and was escorted to Beijing, but when he was escorted to Beijing, Zhu Yuanzhang happened to be in a good mood and was imprisoned, and he didn't have Zhu Yuanzhang angry and roared that he would shoot him personally.
Zhang Yifan didn't know about this matter, and the current court was far away from him. He's just practicing his words.
On this day, he was a little tired of writing, and he shook his wrist to rest, and at the same time, looked at the books on his desk.
These books, of course, were left by Zheng Jingxue, because now they are just practicing calligraphy, and Zheng Jingxue will change them once every two days.
Suddenly, Zhang Yifan put down the brush, flipped through the book, and then said to himself in a little surprise: "I said, it turns out that there is no "Disciple Rules". ”
All these days, he had a vague feeling that something was missing. Now he finally remembered that among the ancient enlightenment books, there is also a very famous book called "Disciple Rules", but among the books left to him by Zheng Jingxue, there is no such one.
"Why don't you write it down and take a look?" An idea suddenly popped up in Zhang Yifan's heart.
Practicing calligraphy is too boring and boring. And he felt that after these days of studying, it seemed that his memory was still strengthening. I have read many books in later generations, and I can recall them. And this disciple rule, he also memorized it when he was a child.
Thinking so in his heart, Zhang Yifan said that he would do it, and began to practice calligraphy boringly.
After a while, he put down the brush and said a little happily: "Sure enough, the guess is correct, the brain is used diligently, the better this memory will be!" That's right, it's basically written out silently. ”
But soon, Zhang Yifan's face drooped again. This word is still ugly!
Of course, this ugliness is relative to Zheng Jingxue's writing.
In desperation, Zhang Yifan had no choice but to put these finished words aside and continue to practice calligraphy.
But this time, he had just written for a while, and suddenly put down the brush, patted his head with his hand and said, "I'm a fool, a big fool!" ”
There is a shortcut to take, but it has been wasting time, which is really stupid!
Thinking so, he put down the brush and hurried downstairs.
Zhu Wu and another guard were lying downstairs bored, and when they saw him coming down, they immediately came to their senses and said, "What, are you going out?" ”
It is impossible for Zhang Yifan to stay in the house every day, and when he goes out, it is also the time for them to let off steam.
"Well, I'm going to find something!" Zhang Yifan said excitedly.
In the end, Zhu Wu stroked his fist, won the guard, and accompanied Zhang Yifan out.
Not long after he left, Zheng Jingxue arrived at Liujia Village as usual, and knew that Zhang Yifan had gone out, but he didn't care, and went upstairs to check Zhang Yifan's homework.
Looking at the written papers on the table, Zheng Jingxue couldn't help but shake his head. Although it is a little progress, this word is still ugly!
He shook his head while cleaning up, thinking about picking a few well-written ones and taking them back to King Yan to see, maybe making King Yan happier.
As a result, he was stunned for a moment.
