The autumn wind blows gently, blowing the branches and leaves.
Occasionally, broken leaves fell in twos and threes with the wind and hit Zhu Yunxi on the shoulder.
He sat alone under the trees in the imperial garden, silently looking at the autumn landscape in front of him.
To be precise, he was not looking at the scenery, but at the Palace of Flowers, where the sound of reading could still be heard from time to time. That was the place where he studied, and it was also the place where he spent the most time in the Forbidden City.
In the past, when he didn't study hard, Liu Sanwu would scold him with a straight face, "Has Your Highness forgotten the difficulties of founding the Ming Dynasty? Has he forgotten the ambition of the late prince? Is Your Highness going to be Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty in the future?"
There was also that time when he thought he was smart and mentioned gambling in front of the old man, but the old man Long Yan was furious and ordered someone to pull him outside the palace to beat him up. Liu Sanwu ran back and forth, sweating profusely with anxiety, and his heartache was palpable.
.
There are many more stories between him and Zhu Yunxi.
So many that once memories come up, they are filled with thoughts.
During the Yuan Dynasty of the previous dynasty, Liu Sanwu served as an academic and political official in Jingjiang Road, Guangxi, with a noble status and aloof status. In the tenth year of Hongwu, he entered the imperial court and served as an Imperial Academy member, and then helped the old man to formulate the imperial examinations, determine the royal imperial edicts, and compile books.
It can be said that since the old man abolished the prime minister, he has relied on him for everything. He is a veritable staff counselor. Otherwise, the old man would not have entrusted him with such an important task as teaching the prince and grandson to study.
He is also the leader of Chaoqingliu.
He is a good teacher and a humble gentleman with no shortcomings in his private life.
However, people are selfish. He taught Zhu Yunxi how to read and he was a real imperial teacher. So deep in his heart, he also wanted to let Zhu Yunxi get close to his ministers and Qingliu.
The turning point of the relationship between Zhu Yunxi and his teacher and student occurred here.
There can be a clear stream, and a country should not and cannot have only one voice. But this country needs more practical officials.
The wind suddenly picked up, and a yellow leaf fell on his shoulder.
He gently twisted it with his hands, looking at the dry lines on the leaves, then let go and let the leaves be swept away by the wind and disappear.
Then, he opened Liu Sanwu's legacy again.
"The imperial power is granted by heaven. The emperor is the Son of Heaven and the master of the world."
"However, the emperor is a role model for the people in the world. In addition to being eager to do things, the emperor does whatever he wants and is unwilling to follow etiquette."
"Etiquette and law are not complicated and formal, but rather exhort the person to be correct in his words and deeds. If the emperor does not follow the etiquette and law, the court will be in chaos. If the court is in chaos, the world will be in chaos, and if the world is in chaos, the people will be uneasy."
"After the emperor ascends the throne, he does not like empty talk but prefers officials to do practical work."
"Empty talk may not be a good way to govern a country, but it can also open up avenues of speech."
"Rong Qingliu is the mouth that allows the world's scholars to speak. In case the emperor is arbitrary and arbitrary in everything, he will be stubborn and guess."
"Moreover, superiors like to work hard and are more effective than superiors and subordinates. Officials mostly use their political achievements to win the emperor's heart."
"Either large-scale construction projects are carried out, or people's resources are wasted in the name of hard work. People's resources are limited, so we should be careful with them."
"Real work can prosper the country, but false work can ruin the people and lead to cruel officials. Think twice before the emperor."
"Emperors throughout the ages have governed the country with benevolence and filial piety, and the emperor's benevolence and filial piety can be seen from the sun and the moon. However, the emperor has been closely influenced by the Supreme Emperor since he was a child. The Supreme Emperor has a strong temperament and likes torture and heavy responsibility. The world has been stable for a long time, and violent methods are not the way to last."
"The murderous intention is too serious, and it will do a lot of harm without any benefit."
"The emperor is not the founder of the country, and the country cannot be governed in the same way as the supreme emperor. If you follow his method, you may put the cart before the horse and damage your reputation."
Seeing this, Zhu Yunxi showed a smile on his calm face.
"You Liu Sanwu, you actually arranged Grandpa Huang in the book!"
The words in the memorial are in the eyes of the benevolent and the wise are wise. If you think about it carefully, it makes sense.
This country has huge inertia, and nothing can be done in a hurry, and the rules and concepts formed over thousands of years are even less likely to be changed overnight.
Zhu Yunxi understood this deeply, and it really affected his whole body.
Everyone wants to be a reformer, but with such a huge empire, such a long history, and so many people, blind reform is irresponsible and can even affect the country.
That's why he didn't immediately start implementing various new policies after he ascended the throne.
I have seen the last part of the book, and the writing on it shows the signs of exhaustion.
"After the guilty minister returned to his hometown, he examined himself three times every day. His career as a high-ranking official for half his life was like a dream. The guilty minister was dirty in his old age. It was because he was greedy and forgot to protect himself wisely."
"The guilty minister is old, more than ten years old, and it is God's grace to me to have such a long life. Therefore, after my death, I was buried sparingly in my hometown. A thin coffin and two volumes of ancient books are enough."
"I know that your Majesty treats my veterans well. I sincerely request your majesty not to give my veterans posthumous titles and not to give rewards to my descendants. A clean and upright family tradition is the foundation. If you become rich suddenly, your descendants will be in trouble!"
"My lord, Liu Sanwu kowtows before you."
The wind seemed to be stronger, and more leaves fell, covering the memorial in Zhu Yunxi's hand.
The neat regular script written on it seemed to make Zhu Yunxi get to know Liu Sanwu again. To be precise, he was re-examining this era.
Time, not just time.
At each point in time, living people have different views on the world, human relations, and even their family, country, and world.
It doesn’t mean that if you come from hundreds of years later, you will definitely do it more correctly than others think or say.
What is in line with the times is correct.
Regarding Liu Sanwu's death, in addition to being sad, Zhu Yunxi felt more of a sense of sadness.
Their generation is old and about to die.
Even people younger than them are getting older.
Whether it is the cabinet ministers in the present ministry or the hawkish generals, there are fewer and fewer old people, and most of them are in their prime.
Alternation of old and new...
This word made Zhu Yunxi fall into deep thought again.
~
In the distance, Li Jinglong tiptoed over, stopped next to Wang Sha twenty steps away from Zhu Yunxi, then stretched his neck and looked around.
"Long live the Lord has been sitting there for a long time." Wang Shai whispered, "I haven't even used the food. It's cold today. How can this be good?"
Li Jinglong glanced at Zhu Yunxi, his eyes fixed on Wang Shai, "Old Wang, we have been friends for a long time, long live the Lord, is this...?"
Wang Shai looked around and whispered, "Liu Sanwu is gone!"
"Ah!" Li Jinglong was startled at first, and then sighed, "Xueshi Liu and I can be regarded as old friends. Even though we knew that he was already in his old age, I felt a little uncomfortable when I heard about it."
As he spoke, he sighed again, "I have to send someone to give a heavy gift to the Liu family. The Shinto monument in front of my father's mausoleum was made by Bachelor Liu." At this point, he sighed again, "You know who I am.
, the most important thing is to miss the old love and remember the friendship."
"If nothing else, just because of this, I can't watch the Liu family make the funeral so shabby!"
Wang Shai glanced at him and cursed in his heart.
"Why are you pretending to be kind to the Za family? Are you afraid that someone else's funeral will be miserable? When Liu Sanwu was unlucky, I didn't see you, Cao Guogong, remembering old friendship and helping him to speak out. When Liu Sanwu was in his hometown, I didn't see you writing letters and giving gifts to others during the New Year."
Cursing in his heart, he quietly moved two steps to distance himself from Li Jinglong.
Suddenly, for some reason, my nose felt itchy and I sneezed twice.
"Did you catch the wind?" Li Jinglong said with a smile.
Wang Shai quickly took out his handkerchief and wiped his nose, and said angrily, "I don't know what happened these days, but I suddenly started sneezing!"
"There's something to be learned about sneezing!" Li Jinglong said, "Sneeze once because someone misses you, and if you sneeze twice, someone is scolding you. If you sneezed twice just now, someone must be scolding you severely behind your back!"
Wang Shai's expression changed, "The Za family has no enmity with anyone, why would anyone scold our family!"
At this moment, Zhu Yunxi from the Imperial Garden turned around and said, "Is Li Jinglong here? Come here!"
