Chapter 117: At the beginning of man, nature is good

"Scatter!"

Zhu Jianshen got up and left, not giving the ministers a chance to argue, and similarly, he did not say that he would execute it immediately.

This wave is just a temptation, let the ministers have a psychological preparation first.

Of course, Zhu Jianshen's choice of this time to be tempted was deliberate, because ...... It's almost the New Year!

The year-end bonus is still pressed there, and he didn't say that he would lay off employees directly, and the officials would not mess with him.

However, it is foreseeable that this year, they will not have a good time, at least they will not be happy.

The Imperial Study.

Zhu Jianshen hummed a little tune, and while dealing with the music, he was extremely happy in his heart.

"Your Majesty ......," the little yellow gate came in from the outside, "the guerrilla general Li Hong asked to see him at the palace gate. ”

"Li Hong, ah......" Zhu Jianshen Zhu Bi paused, raised his chin, "Xuan!" ”

"Yes." Xiao Huangmen hurriedly went.

About a quarter of an hour later, Li Hong came in with the little yellow door, "Long live my emperor Weichen." ”

"Flat." Zhu Jianshen put down the Zhu pen and asked with a smile: "Are you ready?" ”

Li Hong arched his hand and said: "A total of 5,200 people, all of whom are carefully selected by Weichen!" ”

"Hmm... Not bad. Zhu Jianshen said happily, "Let's set off after the New Year, the Daming Water Master has been abandoned for too long, it's time to practice again." ”

paused, "You have been running around all these years, and you have no time to take care of your family, so if you go to Jiangnan, you will basically stay in the future, and you can also relieve the pain of lovesickness between your husband and wife." ”

Li Hong was a little embarrassed, and said, "Emperor Xie is compassionate." ”

Zhu Jianshen smiled and asked, "Mrs. Ling's family...... Are you all right? ”

"It's all good." Li Hong nodded.

"Okay......" Zhu Jianshen sighed a little embarrassed, and turned to the topic, "Yongqing Hou once said: Now the wealth of the Ming Dynasty comes from the sea, and the disasters will also come from the sea.

I feel the same way!

Putting you in this position is not only a trust in your character, but also an affirmation of your ability. ”

Li Hong arched his hand: "Wechen will do his best to live up to Longen's might!" ”

"Hmm." Zhu Jianshen bowed slightly, "The water master is the most money-burning, and the conditions I can give at this stage are limited, after all, ...... The situation is about to ...... Alas, don't talk about that. ”

Breathing a sigh of relief, Zhu Jianshen said with a deep face: "You can rest assured that you can rest assured that a 5,000-strong sailor division is still supported, artillery, firearms, armor and equipment...... It's all for you, but you have to make the most of it. ”

"Wechen obeys!" Li Hong arched his hand, and seeing that the emperor didn't continue, he asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, where is the Marquis of Yongqing...... Is there any news? ”

When Li Hong came back from vacation, Li Qing had already led the army to set off, he couldn't talk to his godfather, and after a farewell for more than half a year, he was both missing and worried.

Godfathers are already in their sixtieth year......

Zhu Jianshen knew that he was worried about Li Qing, and he was not stunned, and said with a smile: "You can always trust him." ”

"Uh... Be. ”

The emperor didn't say the details, and it would be too much to ask again, and Li Hongben just wanted to know the situation of his godfather, not to inquire about the military.

Knowing that his godfather was fine, he was also relieved.

Seeing that the emperor mentioned the Zhu pen again, Li Hong saluted: "The minister retires." ”

"Hmm... Go ahead. ”

Li Hong walked for a while, and Zhu Jianshen put down the Zhu pen, stretched his waist, and muttered, "I hope ...... The tiger father really has no dogs, otherwise...... My money is gone. ”

Ships, artillery, guns, ammunition, bows and arrows, armor, and ...... After calculation, a well-equipped 5,000-man naval division costs more than 10,000 cavalry.

It's not impossible to let the household department pay, but it will definitely have to go through a lot of bargaining, and the interests of the bureaucracy will be greatly mobilized soon, so Zhu Jianshen simply pays out of his own pocket to save the other party from using it as a bargaining chip.

Fortunately, after the replanning of commercial taxes, tax revenues have become richer and richer, and these additional expenses are still affordable for Zhu Jianshen.

…

After a busy morning, Zhu Jianshen finally finished today's work.

In fact, since the decentralization of the cabinet, the emperor's workload has been much easier than in the Hongwu period, and even ...... The emperor can enjoy it all day long, as long as it is all red.

But if that happens, it will make the cabinet bigger.

Moreover, the cabinet's proposals, more or less, will carry private goods, and it is not feasible to approve them all.

Therefore, the emperor still has to work, but compared to the years after Zhu Yuanzhang abolished the prime minister, the current emperor is really comfortable.

After eating, Zhu Jianshen took a small sedan chair and went to Anle Hall.

These days, the number of times he goes to Anle Hall is almost catching up with Yongning Palace.

It's really ...... Big chubby boy cute tight.

What's more, compared to the dullness of the palace, Anle Hall feels more like a home to him.

Anle Hall, backyard.

The little guy lost his former happiness, he lay on the low table, his face was supported by his little hands, squeezed a little deformed, and the whole person was listless.

"Mother, can you not study?"

After this year, he was four years old, and he was old enough to read and write.

"Can't!" Miss Li sternly refused, "Come, read with my mother, at the beginning of people, nature is good ......"

The little one's dark eyes rolled and said, "Then if you let the child eat candy and read, the child will definitely be able to read well." ”

"Still eating sugar, you still cried and had a toothache last night, have you forgotten?" Miss Li snorted: "If you are disobedient, my mother will beat you." ”

"Mother...... I'm sleepy. The little one lay on the low table, his eyes closed, ignoring his mother's threats.

Miss Li, who has always been good-natured, couldn't help but have her blood pressure soaring, and walked straight to the side and took out the ring ruler......

After a while, the little one was crying......

"Are you still sleepy?"

"I'm not sleepy."

"Can you read it?"

"Yes!"

Miss Li smiled with relief: "At the beginning of people, nature is good ......"

"At the beginning of man, nature is good...... "The little guy cried and read along.

In this era, for children from families with conditions, the enlightenment reading materials are generally based on "Analects", "Book of Songs", or "Thousand Character Text".

The second is popular reading materials such as "Three Character Classic" and "Hundred Family Names".

Miss Li Yao.. Born in the Tusi clan, the Ming Dynasty's policy towards the Tusi is generally more gentle, and it is mainly based on guiding goodness, so she read the "Three Character Classic" when she was a child, and she did not dabble in books such as "Analects" and "Book of Songs".

To put it mildly, she can't understand it herself, and she doesn't even know some words, so she can only start with the "Three Character Classic".

She was a little worried, afraid that her lack of knowledge would delay her son, and thought that if the emperor came, she begged him to send a eunuch from the inner study hall to teach her son to read and write.

Miss Li didn't think anything wrong, she knew that with her background, her son was destined to be a vassal king, although her son was now the eldest son of the emperor.

But, even if it's a vassal king, you can't be illiterate a few words, right?

After a long time, Miss Li finished reading, and the little guy stumbled along and read it.

He asked hopefully: "Mother, can you eat candy?" ”

"No, from now on, quit sugar!"

"Wow......" The little guy cried again, more sad than when he was beaten just now, and he was not allowed to eat sugar, which simply killed him.

Miss Li was a little distressed, and was about to coax a few words of persuasion, when she suddenly heard a majestic voice coming:

"Xiao Ji open the door, it's me!"

"Don't cry!" Miss Li was overjoyed and got up to open the door.

The little guy stopped crying immediately, and he was busy keeping up with his mother, he knew that it was his father who came, and he knew that he would be able to eat candy soon.

"Yo, what's wrong with your good son?" As soon as Zhu Jianshen entered the door, he hugged his son, and seeing that his son's tears were still there, he raised his hand and wiped him with his sleeve, and said with great experience:

"My son is still young, don't beat him at every turn, if you beat him, it's useless to beat him in the future."

Miss Li answered yes, bowed her head and closed the door, and followed the father and son back.

Entering the house, she hurriedly brought a cup of hot tea, "It's cold, the emperor has a cup of tea to warm up." ”

"Hmm..." Zhu Jianshen put down his son, leaned on the back of the chair and took a leisurely sip of tea, seeing that she lowered her head and did not speak, he said, "I didn't mean to criticize you just now. ”

"The concubine knows." Miss Li nodded, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Your Majesty, the concubines have something to ask for." ”

"You say."

"My son will be four years old soon, and he will also reach the age of reading and writing, can the emperor ......" Miss Li could not hide her inferiority, "The concubine has no knowledge and cannot teach him." ”

Zhu Jianshen smiled and said, "You want someone to teach him to read, right?" ”

"Don't get me wrong, the concubine has no delusions, just ......"

"No explanation." Zhu Jianshen raised his hand to interrupt her, and said with a smile: "This is how it should be, I want to send someone after the New Year, since you have spoken, then I will pick two sensible eunuchs from the inner study hall to come over." ”gΓ²ΠΉΠͺ.ōΓg

Miss Li breathed a sigh of relief, "Concubine Xie Emperor Longen." ”

"This is my son, do I need you to thank you? Ha ha...... Just kidding, look at you, I'm panicking again. Zhu Jianshen quipped, "I'm not a flood beast, can I still eat you?" ”

Miss Li lowered her head and said softly, her plain white face turned red.

Zhu Jianshen looked at it and couldn't help but feel his heart flutter.

"Daddy, daddy," the little guy shouted, pulling him back to reality, "Daddy, the child doesn't want to study, he wants to eat candy." ”

The little guy looked up and asked hopefully, "Is it okay?" ”

Zhu Jianshen pinched his soft face and laughed, "Of course...... No, you can't! ”

"Huh?" The little one was dumbfounded.

But I heard my father say again: "Books have to be read, and sugar can also be eaten." ”

Hearing this, the little guy hurriedly ran to his mother and stretched out his fat little hand: "Daddy said that you can eat sugar." ”

Miss Li sighed, "Your Majesty, Xiaobao...... They all have tooth decay. ”

"Uh... Is that so? Zhu Jianshen glanced at his poor son and said, "After eating this, I can't eat it anymore." ”

"Okay." The little guy simply agreed.

Miss Li smiled helplessly, took one out of her purse, and said, "The last one." ”

"Uh-huh."

The little one ate the candy as he wished, and his eyes were crooked.

Zhu Jianshen was also happy, but he was just ...... In addition to pleasure, there is also some guilt.

He sighed lightly: "After the first day of the new year, I will accompany you to make up for a year." ”

Miss Li's heart warmed, and she whispered, "Your Majesty, it doesn't matter. ”

Zhu Jianshen smiled, and sighed again: "Just take it as my amend, after the year, I will be busy and can't come often." ”
