Chapter Twenty-Eight: Strength Conquers the Heavens

What is power?

Power is what you dream about and the next day you can achieve, that's power.

Zhu Yijun is only ten years old, the monarch does not revitalize the dynasty, there is no authority at all, but power is power, he wants to practice martial arts, there is the hereditary martial arts of the Ming Dynasty, Ti Cai with the latest military training training; He wanted to farm, and immediately more than 100 people vacated the hundred gardens in Jingshan and made trouble for the emperor.

Zhu Yijun found that the small yellow door work is really diligent, when he returned to the palace yesterday, this place has just transplanted flowers and trees, deep ploughing and fertilizing the soil, today even the insects have been picked, several directors of the Ministry of Works, is planning the Ming Baoqi Palace, said that it is a palace, but it is a five-room nine-frame pattern, the Baoqi Palace is a small project, covering an area of about half an acre of fire room is the key project.

The fire room is to prevent the cold of spring, and is jointly built by the War Bureau and the Ministry of Industry of the Ming Dynasty, and the entire fire room has a waterway for heating.

Lighting is a solution with all-glass coverage, which is the fully transparent glass in Zhu Yijun's cognition, with a steel frame as the structure.

In the Sui and Tang dynasties, there have been records of large-scale firing of transparent glass, and the glass used in the palace is stained glass.

Instead, the waste can be used in the fire chamber.

The inverted spring cold insulation, is covered with thick grass on top of the glass, so that Zhu Yijun, the little emperor, opened his eyes, the construction period only takes three days to complete, a fire room covering an area of half an acre, will be the first spectacle that Zhu Yijun, the little emperor, sees.

The fire room of the Ming Dynasty is far from being so luxurious, it is just the emperor's fire room, and the nursery room can be so extravagant, and it is only half an acre of land.

Xu Zhenming looked at the little emperor's big bright eyes and said: "The Analects say: Don't eat from time to time, and the Hanshu also says: Things from time to time hurt people, and it is not appropriate to make offerings. ”

The meaning of this sentence is that it is not in season and cannot be eaten. Food that is not in this solar term needs to be supported by all the people in order to obtain it, and it is depriving the people of their strength, and they should not be so greedy for appetite. ”

"In the Western Han Dynasty, the Taiguan Garden was planted in winter, and the onions, leeks, and vegetables were planted, covered with roofs, and the fire was lit day and night, and the warm air was born, and the crops were planted in the greenhouse from time to time."

"When it came to the Northern Wei Dynasty, it was no longer a fire in the house, but a tunnel was dug and a fire was burned in the tunnel, which was also inconvenient, and the fire was easy to extinguish underground."

"When it came to the Tang Dynasty, Yizhou Sima Chen Yuanshou, built an earthen room to plant vegetables from time to time to pay tribute, Tang Taizong wondered where to get fresh vegetables in winter, Chen Yuanshou Ming earthen room construction, but Tang Taizong was furious, angrily reprimanded Chen Yuanshou for doing his best to invite favor, Chen Yuanshou was soon deposed."

"When it came to Empress Wu Zetian, Empress Wu Zetian loved peonies, Chang'an Luoyang was full of greenhouses, cultivating flowers, abandoned in the Kaiyuan period, and rebuilt and supplied fruits and vegetables from time to time in the Tianbao period for the royal family."

Xu Zhenming paused when he said this, he didn't want to live up to Zhang Juzheng's recommendation, so he said a little too much for a while, the emperor hasn't read history yet, can he understand what he said?

"Go on." Zhu Yijun listened with relish, digging the foundation of the fire room, the shovel in his hand was tailor-made for his figure, Zhu Yijun motioned to Xu Zhenming, who was digging the foundation together, and continued to explain.

Xu Zhenming continued: "In the Song and Yuan dynasties, this kind of greenhouse has been extremely common, in the middle of winter in Beijing, there are yellow sprouts, leeks supply, cover the luxury households in the cellar fire kang fire room, leeks are more expensive, is dozens of times the usual leeks, and its benefits are also several times. ”

After listening to this, Zhu Yijun frowned and said: "Bachelor Xu, I heard it, you are talking about the planting method of covering the luxurious and wealthy families, ordinary people, how to prevent and control this cold and frozen seedlings in spring?" ”

Xu Zhenming hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, the minister saw farmers in Changping, a suburb of Beijing, made a wind tent with sorghum stalks to block the cold wind, and after enclosing the vegetable field, he spread horse manure and grass ash on the vegetable field to keep warm, and prevent and control the seedlings from falling into the spring cold. ”

Xu Zhenming explained a lot of folk farming tips, and Zhu Yijun called Zhang Hong to bring a pen and a memo to record all the tips Xu Zhenming said.

For the first time, Zhu Yijun knew that there were so many doorways in this kind of place.

For example, the land is extremely fertile, the farmers are industrious and apply a lot of fertilizer, and the crops are growing well, but they are good-looking, and they can't produce grain, and the harvest is also very poor, because the farmers don't know how to cut off their floating roots and cut their attached leaves before they can harvest.

For example: go down to the kiln well to take Tibetan seeds, you must not go down easily, otherwise you will die of breathlessness, you must first open the cellar door, ventilate, put in with a lit candle, and go in without extinguishing.

"This kind of land should know the time, the nature of the soil, and the crops it is suitable for, try to make use of the limited conditions, avoid unfavorable factors, and match the time, veins, and physical properties of the earth, and the strength is enough to win the sky!" Xu Zhenming said excitedly.

"Strength is enough to win the sky?" Zhu Yijun stopped writing and looked at Xu Zhenming's eyes flickering.

"The minister's ability to farm is taught by Ma Yilong, and this is also what Ma Yilong told the minister, he doesn't mean to disobey the orders of the court and His Majesty's will, he means..."

In Daming, there can only be one heaven, and that is the Son of Heaven.

Shengtian, is this preparing to rebel? This is indeed a little taboo.

Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "The strength is enough to win the sky, the victory is the sky, the victory is nature, the heavens are not beautiful, the earth is ultimately poor, and it is a kind of high-spirited spirit of manpower to fight against natural disasters, this is what Mr. Xu means." ”

"Your Majesty is wise!" Xu Zhenming breathed a long sigh of relief, His Majesty explained it perfectly, the sky here is the meaning of nature.

Xu Zhenming hurriedly said: "Ma Yilong Menghe, is a Jinshi in the twenty-sixth year of Jiajing, Jiajing returned to his hometown in the thirty-eighth year to run a school, recruiting homeless people to work hard to reclaim wasteland, half of the harvest in the first year is owned by Mr. Menghe, and then the acres are owned by the people, and this half of the harvest is to continue to recruit homeless people to work hard in the coming year. ”

"Mr. Meng He revised the book of agriculture, one volume, only more than 6,000 words, but every word is fine."

Xu Zhenming, a bachelor of agriculture, has just been recommended to the court, so he quickly gave his teacher a chance to progress, Zhu Yijun is not disgusted with this kind of recommendation, Ma Yilong really does things for the people of the Ming Dynasty, and recruiting the Beijing teacher is also a good thing.

"Where is Mr. Meng He?" Zhu Yijun recorded Xu Zhenming's way of cultivating the field, this kind of earnest out of the barren land, only half of it was collected in the first year, and then it was all owned by the tenant servants, and then used this half to plead for the famine, which is a real good person, not a false morality.

Xu Zhenming spent 39,000 acres of land a year, 2,000 households and more than 10,000 people, and was indeed a capable and willing to do things.

This kind of scholar is a gentleman.

"Mr. Meng He died of illness at home the year before last." Xu Zhenming really didn't want to recommend his mentor, his mentor had been in Longqing for five years, and he died in the year of the Jinshi.

Xu Zhenming was afraid that the emperor would misunderstand that Ma Yilong shouted that his strength was enough to win the sky, and he was a disloyal, unfilial and unobedient courtier, so it would be a pity to abandon "Ma Yilong Nong Said".

"What happened to Mr. Meng He's reclamation?" Zhu Yijun looked at Xu Zhenming and asked.

Xu Zhenming said helplessly: "Mr. Meng He is a jinshi, a gentleman with a meritorious reputation, the local powerful and powerful people dare not offend, after Mr. Meng He passed away, this reclamation matter was abandoned without anyone presiding." ”

"How many acres of land are there?" Zhu Yijun asked again.

Xu Zhenming's face said with pain this time: "More than 127,000 acres of cultivated land cannot be guarded by the common people, all of them have been encroached upon, and the weeds have been barren for several months. ”

Zhu Yijun heard this, put away the paper and pen, and began to work, unable to guard, occupied, and barren weeds, these simple words, but the bloody forcible seizure, expressed very clearly.

These acres of land reclaimed do not have land deeds, and those powerful and powerful people dare not offend Ma Yilong, after all, there are people in Ma Yilong's court who are still in the court.

However, the powerful and powerful can collude with the local county hall, prepare the land deed early, and wait until Ma Yilong swallows his breath and start to encroach on it, this process is definitely not peaceful.

Tenant slaves, hard laborers, and displaced people, finally under the protection of Ma Yilong, under the leadership of the strength to win the sky, they begged to be wasted out of the acres, and Ma Yilong returned these acres to the displaced people, but these powerful and powerful people took a piece of paper and wanted to occupy it?

But the common people could not defend it, and it was eventually occupied, and then the end of these acres of land was that the weeds were barren, the cultivated fields were not permanent fields, they were all barren places, the output itself was not high, the grain rent of the powerful and powerful people was selfish, and the common people could not eat enough to farm, who was willing to be a servant, and in the end it was like this.

Why Xu Zhenming carried an insect-proof bamboo bookcase had a lot to do with Ma Yilong, the teacher.

Xu Zhenming worshipped Ma Yilong as his teacher, specializing in learning the work of cultivating fields, and it was strange that he was willing to support Xu Zhenming.

"My people, my people, the fields that come out of earnest!" Zhu Yijun has been working, although he is small, he is not lazy, and he scolds while laying a shovel.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty all knew that Zhang Juzheng was a master who would repay him, and if Zhang Juzheng was a man who would repay him, then Zhu Yijun would be a small-bellied chicken intestine, and his heart and eyes were as small as a needle.

The powerful people of Liyang County, Suzhou Prefecture, didn't know that they had been targeted by the little emperor.

Zhu Yijun gained a lot today, and before he returned to the Qianqing Palace to wash, he said to Zhang Hong: "Zhang Daban, help me write it down, it is my field!" If you can't plant it, you will be wasted? A bunch of dog stuff! ”

Before Zhu Yijun entered the bathroom, he emphasized to Zhang Hong again: "My field! ”

"The emperor came back from Jingshan yesterday with a beaming face, where did this anger come from today?" When Empress Dowager Li was waiting for the food to be served, she saw that the little emperor was unhappy, this was no longer unhappy, she was already angry.

Zhu Yijun told Ma Yilong from beginning to end, and then asked: "Does my mother know the whole story of Xu Zhenming's impeachment?" ”

"The people around the emperor naturally have to find out and talk about it after eating." Empress Dowager Li said with a smile: "You don't say anything about eating, you don't say anything about sleeping." ”
