Chapter 23 The True Test

"The Tibetan people are not just Goryeo, but also those from Ryukyu!"

In the university hall, the Hanlin bachelors had not yet started their lectures. Several little kid princes surrounded Zhu Yunxi, looking at him with admiration and his eloquent words.

In the previous life, Zhu Yunxi was also a talkative and fun-loving person, and was particularly patient with children. In this life, he was deeply troubled by the troubles he faced in the palace, and he had to be very thoughtful. Even though he was well-fed and well-dressed, his life was really heart-wrenching.

Talking to these children can be considered as a way to relieve boredom.

"Do you know Quanzhou Port?" The young princes' eyes were wide open and bright. Zhu Yunxi kept talking, "Quanzhou Port is in Fujian. It turns out to be the largest port in the world. There are all kinds of Tibetan people, red-haired

Green eyes, brown hair and high nose.”

As he said this, Zhu Yunxi compared his arms and said, "Those people's hairs are all so long!"

"Ah!" All the young princes exclaimed in surprise.

Zhu Yunxi added, "In addition to the white-skinned Tibetan people, there are also pure black people, who are all black!"

"How dark is it?" Tang Wang Zhu Juan asked in surprise.

"Well, let's put it this way, if you turn off the light, you can only see the teeth!" Zhu Yunxi gave a vivid analogy.

"Ah?" The princes exclaimed again.

Remember the URL m.wxsy.

"Cough! Cough!" A deliberate cough came from the front. Zhu Yunwen held the book and frowned at this side with an unhappy look on his face.

The university hall is a place for studying. Although the Hanlin bachelors have not arrived yet and have not started lectures, as the prince and grandson, it is not appropriate to talk and laugh so noisily.

Unexpectedly, all the young princes were listening in rapt attention, and no one paid any attention to him.

These young princes were the youngest sons of Zhu Yuanzhang. They were destined to be rich and idle when they were born, and they were too young to have any profound thoughts. They didn't care about Zhu Yunwen, the emperor's grandson who was a generation shorter than them and usually relatively unfamiliar.

In fact, in the original time and space, these princes had a bad relationship with Zhu Yunwen when they were young. After Zhu Yuanzhang's death, Zhu Yunwen did not allow them to become vassals.

On the contrary, after Yongle came to power, he sent these younger brothers to the vassal state, and received constant rewards and favors.

Seeing that several princes didn't take it seriously, Zhu Yunxi didn't take it seriously either.

Zhu Yunwen deliberately coughed twice, "Cough, cough!"

"You are sick!" King Shen Zhu Mo said impatiently, "If you are sick, see the imperial doctor!"

After saying that, he shouted out the door, "Who's here? Where did he die? Didn't you hear King Huai cough?"

Swish, several eunuchs, like the translators in TV series carrying box guns, nodded and bowed around Zhu Yunwen, asking for help.

"Brother Xi, go on!" Zhu Mo turned around and said with a smile, "Where do those Tibetan people with red hair and green eyes come from?"

"Thousands of miles away, we will come by boat!" Zhu Yunxi said with a smile, "We are not the only Ming Dynasty in the world. There are many countries in the far west. They are all people with red hair, green eyes, and brown people!"

"How long does it take to get to us?" Tang Wang Zhu Huang also asked.

"It takes a year or two to take a boat!" Zhu Yunxi said.

The young princes exclaimed again and again, and the youngest Prince Ying, with a tender voice, shouted, "It's so far away, so it will be difficult to rob them in the future!"

"You are stupid!" Shen Wang Zhu Mo said, "They came by boat, how can we rob him? We can cross the sea on horseback?"

"We can go by boat!" Zhu Yunxi smiled slightly, "Wars are not only fought on land, but also on water. When the emperor fought for the world, didn't he defeat Chen Youliang on the water?"

While everyone was talking, a voice came from outside.

"His Royal Highness King Wu, Your Majesty declares your presence here!"

Zhu Yunxi turned around and saw Huang Gou'er, Zhu Yuanzhang's personal eunuch.

"Thank you, father-in-law. What did the emperor want me to do?" Zhu Yunxi smiled gently.

Although the eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty have no status now, they are the people around the emperor after all, and they must always be treated with some kindness and courtesy.

Huang Gou'er lowered his voice, "Third Master, it's your fault!"

Zhu Yunxi understood that it was his statement that Zhu Yuanzhang saw.

So with the eunuchs waiting on him, he arranged his robes and went to Fengtian Hall.

"Brother Zhu Yunxi, come back early and continue talking!" King Tang shouted from behind Zhu Yunxi.

In the school, the princes, emperors and grandsons watched Zhu Yunxi disappear with different expressions.

Some people are envious, some are jealous, and some don't care.

The youngest princes don't care.

King Shen Zhu Mo sat on the stool bored, "Hey, brother Hei went to see the father again!" He said, lowering his voice, "Brother He is really brave. When I saw the father, my heart skipped a beat!"

"When I saw my father, my calves were twisted!" said the King of Tang.

King Ying also came over and said, "When I saw your father, I didn't even dare to raise my head!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's youngest son, the little prince who has not yet been crowned king, said in a sweet voice, "I... I peed my pants when I saw my father!"

~~~~~~

As Zhu Yunxi walked, he thought about how to deal with it later.

Converting an inn to a post office is a big project, and it also involves money.

Everything becomes troublesome when money is involved.

What Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to ask was probably how to collect money and how to ensure that the money collected by the post station could truly become a financial source for the court instead of going into private pockets.

You know, this emperor is the emperor who hates corrupt officials the most in history and knows the best about the virtues of officials.

If you want to convince Zhu Yuanzhang, you must come up with a complete system.

Young Zhu Yunxi walked very fast and arrived at Fengtian Temple in a blink of an eye.

But as soon as he strode in, he was stunned.

There were more than a dozen officials in the palace dressed in purple robes, some of whom he knew and others he didn't recognize.

The ministers are all here, and the others should be the young ministers of Dali Temple, the young ministers of Taichang Temple, etc.

Seeing his grandson coming with his head held high, Zhu Yuanzhang on the throne was all smiles.

That's what old people are like. Once they like a younger person, they will do whatever they like.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought to himself, "This kid, the way he walks is exactly the same as when we were young, so anxious!"

Zhu Yunxi was stunned for a moment and walked to the palace, "My grandson has come to see the emperor!"

If it must be true, Zhu Yunxi should call himself a minister on such an occasion. But he did so deliberately. If it is a minister, he must be careful. If it is a grandson, it does not matter if he says it wrong.

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said, "Get up! Come here!"

Zhu Yunxi quickly stepped forward and stood beside the imperial case.

"Did you practice martial arts this morning?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked again.

"Back to Grandpa Huang, we had a few fistfights and ate a bowl of porridge, a steamed stuffed bun and an egg!"

"Haha! Okay, you can eat well!" Zhu Yuanzhang said kindly, "At your age, you should eat more! At your age, we would like to eat a cow in one meal!"

The grandfather and grandson asked and answered questions, and the officials in the palace were shocked.

Emperor, when have you ever been so easy-going?

Emperor, when have you ever been so close to your grandson?

The emperor, at this moment, is completely like a grandfather caring about his grandchildren!

Think again about the title of King Wu, and then think about the identity of Crown Prince Zhu Yunxi as his legitimate son.

Many people were secretly amazed and thinking about a question.

The throne was empty, so the emperor did not choose his son, but instead showed special favor to his direct grandson!

No official is stupid.

Moreover, who can climb to this position is not a human being?

As I thought about it in my mind, there was an expression on my face.

Especially the old ministers of the East Palace like Zhan Hui, their eyes were filled with joy.

"Do you know why I called you here?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked with a smile.

"My grandson knows that it was my grandson who changed the inn into a postal service to benefit the Ming Dynasty!" Zhu Yunxi said loudly.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, and he valued Zhu Yunxi a little more.

If nothing else, let’s just say that this energy of not being timid is rare!

You must know that the palace is the gathering of the most powerful officials of the Ming Dynasty, ordinary princes and grandsons. It is rare to not be timid on this occasion. Not only is Zhu Yunxi not timid, but he also speaks loudly and resonantly, which is even more rare.

If you want to be a leader, in addition to talent, courage, and skill, you must also have temperament.

"We are here. If you have anything you want to ask, please ask!" Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile.

Zhu Yunxi turned his eyes and looked at the ministers.

The test regarding national affairs is coming.
