In the afternoon, civil and military officials in Zhejiang and Hangzhou received posts from Zhu Hu.

Zhu Hu said that he had something important to discuss with them, and invited them to come to the palace for tea at the end of the next day.

Zhu Hu never took the initiative to deal with officials, and he wished that everyone would not think of him.

But everyone is afraid that Lao Zhu will say that they despise the royal family and snub Zhu Hu, and they will still send some gifts to the New Year's holiday.

Zhu Hu would return a box of "Ten Perfect Tonic Pills" every time.

Adults don't dare to throw away or eat, and now they have seven or eight boxes saved at home.

When I received the post today, everyone was so surprised that they gathered in the Department of the Envoy to discuss.

The commander asked Zuo Cheng to announce the political envoy: "What do you think, my lord?" ”

Zuo Chengxuan sighed: "It may not be King Wu looking for us. ”

The others suddenly realized: "Yes, yes, yes." Your Excellency is wise. ”

Zuo Cheng announced the political envoy: "I heard that this little prince has been rectified from Changzhou. Everywhere he went, whether it was the prefect of the county, the bandits, the bandits, or the wealthy businessmen, they all suffered his losses. We need to be careful. ”

The commander asked again: "What do you think the king of Xiang thinks is going to see us?" ”

It's okay for Zhu Hu to find them, but the big deal is to test the medicine, and he can't die horizontally and vertically.

But now it's Zhu Bai.

Even Xu Da, Deng Yu, and Xie Cheng were all obedient to Zhu Baizhi. He is a small commander, in case he accidentally provokes Zhu Bai......

Thinking about it makes his legs weak.

Right Cheng announced the political envoy: "Isn't it those two things after all?" County school and Caoyun. ”

The commanders, the thousand households, and the inspection envoy secretly breathed a sigh of relief: It's okay, it's okay, these two things have nothing to do with us.

-----

The next day, several adults tacitly carried some small snacks and gadgets to the palace.

Kids as young as eight or nine years old love it. Maybe Zhu Bai was coaxed to be happy and let them go.

After entering the palace, several adults suddenly felt that the atmosphere was different from the past.

In the past, the little guy who opened the door ignored it, yawned for days, and had to wait for half a day for the report.

When I went in, let alone drink tea, I couldn't even find a clean seat.

They are not easy to speak out when they are snubbed, after all, it is the palace.

Today is different.

As soon as the door opened, there were neatly dressed spirit guys, and they were led to the flower hall.

The tables and chairs are clean and tidy, and there are no weeds and fallen leaves in the courtyard.

As soon as they sat down, someone brought warm tea.

After a closer look, there was no substitution, it was still those servants.

How did it turn the world upside down in just one day?

All of you were secretly surprised.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, someone immediately went in and invited Zhu Hu and Zhu Bai out.

Even Zhu Hu looked a lot more tidy.

Zhu Bai followed Zhu Lu slowly, and when he saw that posture, he didn't plan to be the protagonist today.

After Zhu Hu took his seat, he said, "You're welcome, sit down." Today, the king has called you because my father has asked the king to ask you two things. ”

When the adults heard that it was Lao Zhu who came with the words, they hurriedly stood up again: "Weichen listens." ”

Zhu Hu said: "The first thing my father asked was how the county school was going. ”

Isn't that still asking those two things?

The two envoys secretly exchanged glances.

Although they still asked about this matter, in the name of Lao Zhu, they had to answer it well.

Because Zhu Bai turned his head and reported it to the recital.

Right Cheng announced that the political envoy handed over: "This Cheng announced that ten of the seventy-five counties under the jurisdiction of the political envoy department have opened county schools, and the rest are in preparation. ”

Zhu Hu: "When will it be ready?" It's been almost half a year in the making. What are the difficulties, the two adults said. ”

Then the two envoys began to complain, no money, no one.

Zhu Hu blocked them one by one according to the solution Zhu Bai said.

In the end, the two envoys were out of words, and they really couldn't find a reason.

Then Zhu Hu asked again: "When will it be ready?" ”

In addition to Lao Zhu, the two political envoys who announced that He had been forced to ask him like this, which was very embarrassing.

But they didn't dare to say an accurate number, for fear that if they couldn't do it at that time, Lao Zhu would ask for the guilt.

Zhu Hu just stared at them like this, staring at them with great embarrassment.

There was a dead silence at the scene.

Zhu Bai watched coldly, and saw that Wang Cheng was very leisurely on the side, walked over with his hands behind his back, and asked, "My lord's son, where is he now?" ”

Wang Cheng didn't watch out for Zhu Bai suddenly running over to ask this, shivered, and hurriedly replied: "His Royal Highness Lao cares, the dog is in Yingtian, and he is at home." ”

Zhu Bai smiled and tilted his head and asked, "How old is Ling Lang?" ”

Wang Cheng became more and more worried in his heart, and replied, "Seventeen." ”

Zhu Bai nodded slightly: "This king heard that Ling Lang is quite literate. Why don't you go to the prison? ”

Wang Cheng was stunned:, what do you mean by telling me this at this juncture? !

was just stared at by Zhu Bai's dark and sparkling eyes, and he couldn't dodge and could only answer in a whisper: "Weichen is a military general." ”

The son of a military general, even if he takes the imperial examination, shouldn't he also take the martial arts examination?

But Lao Zhu himself took the world on horseback, and in order to prevent someone from rebelling like him, he deliberately emphasized literature and suppressed martial arts.

Not only in the imperial court, Wenchen has a higher status than military generals, but even the last imperial examination and this imperial examination did not mention anything about martial arts.

As a result, all dynasties have martial arts, but this dynasty does not.

Is this clearly to make the descendants of military generals have no way out?

However, Lao Zhu himself attaches great importance to the princes' riding and archery martial arts.

How ironic.....

Seeing that his son is not young, he is still staying at home. Even if it is Wang Cheng, there is no way for you to be a second-class master.

Zhu Bai laughed: "What about the generals. The imperial examination requirements announced by the imperial court did not say that only the sons of Wenchen could go to the national prison. In fact, this king had already written to his father a few days ago, asking him to open his grace to recruit the descendants of military generals to study in the country. ”

In fact, he told Lao Zhu like this: It is useless to suppress the martial arts generals just by not holding the martial arts examination, after all, the ability to fight a war does not need to be proved through the imperial examination, there is something, and there is nothing.

The best way is to turn the descendants of military generals into civilian officials.

Without inheritance, the military power in the hands of those founding fathers cannot be handed over to their sons.

The new generation of generals can only climb up little by little by relying on military exploits. When you get enough of it, you're basically about to retire.

As long as Lao Zhu is strong enough, survives his peers, and then hands over power to Zhu Biao, no military general can threaten the imperial power.

At that time, Lao Zhu read Zhu Bai's letter and patted his thigh: It's still the old twelve who understands us. I know that what we are most worried about is these old ministers who hold military power. This method is even better than Song Taizu's cup of wine to release military power.

Qianhe's ears pricked up when he heard this: This has something to do with him.

Wang Cheng was actually very excited in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it, for fear that it was Zhu Bai's trick, so he only bowed his head: "Thank you, Your Highness, if the emperor allows it, it will be a blessing for us." ”
