As a king, you actually need to be a little clever sometimes.
A monarch who is too rigid, upright, and sharp often not only loses the sincerity of his ministers, but also makes himself angry to death.
"You are old too. You can help grandpa with these things. We can also be lazy!" After saying that, the old man stood up and left with his hands behind his back. His posture was like that of an old cadre going for a walk in the evening after eating.
Zhu Yunxi picked up the memorial and read it carefully while thinking about it.
"The current Ming Dynasty needs stability. If the water is clear, there will be no fish. The old man's opinion is really what he said. He just hammered it."
Suddenly, Zhu Yunxi realized something and continued to think, "According to the old man's temper, he must hate these people in his heart, but after all kinds of considerations, he still chose to tolerate it. Is this a concession? No, this is politics. Even the monarch and his ministers,
We must also pay attention to political maneuvering.”
"Sometimes, national-level issues cannot be considered solely in terms of good and evil. It cannot be measured simply in terms of whether to kill or not to kill. Those in higher positions consider the overall situation."
"It has always been natural for officials throughout the ages to love money and bully the people. It is the same in ancient and modern times. Greed exists wherever there are people, but since it cannot be eradicated, we must find ways to control it within a certain range!"
For a moment, Zhu Yunxi had a lot of thoughts in his mind.
He had already worked hard in society before he came to this world. Although he still has the mentality of a young man, he has his own opinions and thoughts about the world, society, and the general environment.
Zhu Yunxi's eyes swept over the prominent names on the memorial, wondering in his mind, who should he strike first?
The initial website is https://m.
You have to find someone who is good at getting things done, smart, and popular among military generals.
Suddenly, Zhu Yunxi smiled.
"Cao Guogong Li Jinglong invaded and occupied civilian fields and ponds..."
As one of the famous twin war gods of Ming Dynasty in history, Li Jinglong really has a unique shining point.
He is very popular. His father is the nephew of the old emperor. He raised him as a son when he was young. After his death, he was granted the title of county king. His good family background and good image made him go wherever he went.
They are all the focus of people's attention.
This man doesn’t have any of the faults of a second-generation ancestor, and no one can offend him because of his sweet temperament. When he meets the Ming Dynasty veterans, he likes to hear them reminiscing about the glorious past, and then he has a look of emotion on his face. When my father was alive, he always talked about the old generals.
You fought well.
The veterans all said that the elder man of the Li family was a nice guy, a good boy who knew etiquette and was promising.
Seeing that the children of the second generation of generals like him, no matter how big or small the official position is, they are always the elder brother and the younger brother. If anyone asks him for help, he will definitely do it well. He is also generous and never accepts money from gifts.
Over time, the second generation of generals all felt that he was a trustworthy person.
Even the ministers could not say anything bad about Li Jinglong. Despite his title as a general, he was actually an artistic young man with good handwriting. However, in order to show humility in front of the ministers, he also liked to pretend.
Become a big boss.
"Come here!" Zhu Yunxi smiled as his understanding of Li Jinglong flashed through his mind.
"Your Highness!" Pu Wuyong slowly floated over. These eunuchs walked silently.
"The palace gate is not locked yet. Send someone out of the palace to tell Duke Cao to come!" Zhu Yunxi thought about it, "I will meet him in Jingren Palace."
"Yes!" Pu Wuyong quickly went down and went out to report.
Later, Zhu Yunxi also took the palace attendants around him to the East Palace Jingren Palace.
This was originally the palace of his father, Prince Zhu Biao, which was used to receive ministers and handle government affairs. Now the old man has made him the master of this place. Although he will not live here, the palace has everything.
The moment he entered Jingren Palace, Zhu Yunxi was slightly shocked. The palace of memory had changed. All the utensils and furniture, including carpets and curtains, had been replaced. Even the Songhe Incense Burner was newly made by the manufacturing office.
"The old man is really attentive!" Zhu Yunxi smiled in his heart, "He is afraid that his grandson will miss people when he sees things here!"
Yingtian Mansion, Xicheng, Cao Guogong Mansion.
The two stone lions at the door are lifelike, and there are horse posts on the side. In order to show that they are the top generals of the Ming Dynasty, there are still several war horses tied to the horse posts even when it is dark.
They all have domestic soldiers on standby.
Because the first two heads of the family were posthumously granted the title of county prince, the red-painted door was covered with shiny copper nails. Passing through the side hall dedicated to Li Zhong and his son in the front yard, there is a huge martial arts field at the back, with various weapons, bow and arrow targets,
There is everything you need for a riding and shooting range.
Further back is the place where Cao Guogong lives. The backyard is not like a military family's house. It is gorgeous and elegant, elegant and unique. The flowers, plants and trees in the yard are neatly maintained, with rockeries and flowing water, which is quite similar to Suzhou gardens.
smell.
At this moment, the evening breeze is blowing, blowing the flowers and plants in the garden, and taking a breath, it is full of fragrance. Coupled with the light of the lights, the plants and trees in the garden are graceful and graceful, like beauties, which is a unique scene.
Under the pomegranate shed, Li Jinglong was leaning on a bamboo and rattan lounge chair. He was wearing a white silk coat and holding a picture book in his hand, reading with gusto.
There were tea, melons and fruits on the low table next to him. A pretty little maid in her second year of life, dressed in Tsing Yi, was squatting beside him, fanning her cattail leaf fan up and down to help him drive away mosquitoes.
The girl didn't know if she was tired, her face was red, and there was sweat on her forehead and the tip of her nose. However, if you look closely, the blush on the girl's face was full of coquettishness and shyness, not fatigue.
While the girl was fanning the cattail leaf, she secretly glanced at the painting book in Li Jinglong's hand, and quickly lowered her head. The delicate and shy face seemed to drip with water.
"Hehe!" Li Jinglong looked at the picture book and grinned, "It's interesting!" As he said that, he turned his fingers over and the male and female characters in the picture book changed their postures again.
This book comes from the Japanese country of Japan and is most popular among the refined people in the capital. The old master said that food and sex are the same, and it is also an elegant thing to read painting books at night, learn the techniques, and then try it again.
The characters in the picture book are all colorful and lifelike. The paper is very thin. If you flip through the pages quickly, the characters inside seem to be alive, with coherent movements and beautiful women's expressions changing.
One push and one end, it's wonderful.
"Hehe!" Li Jinglong laughed again, "This is good, this is good!" As he said this, he reached out to touch the tea on the table while looking at it.
But the tentacle touched the maid holding the cattail leaf fan. Li Jinglong turned around and saw that the maid's face was as shameful as a red fruit, which made people salivate.
Li Jinglong laughed evilly again and simply stopped drinking the tea.
"Yeah!" The maid bit her lip and got excited.
Li Jinglong grabbed a ball of soft fat in his big hand and kept rubbing it while reading.
After a while, his hands seemed a little sore. Li Jinglong said without raising his head, "Master, my arms are sore. You lean on my lap!"
Like a frightened deer, the maid passed over obediently.
"Hey! I know how to play!" Li Jinglong laughed while looking at the drawing book.
"Master, why aren't you sleeping yet?" A cheerful female voice suddenly came from outside, along with the footsteps of the maids walking.
Li Jinglong was shocked and quickly pulled out his hand, but he didn't want to reach too deep and get stuck.
This scene happened to be seen by a woman in her thirties who came in. She immediately turned cold and sneered, "Hey, it's so late at night, I'm so elegant!"
Li Jinglong kicked the girl next to him away and said angrily, "I asked you to rub my legs for me. What are you going to do with me?" After saying that, he stood up and said with a smile, "Madam, you didn't rest either?"
The woman sneered twice again, sat down on a chair, her eyes fell on the picture book, and the corners of her mouth moved, "Master, you said you read every day, and this is what you read?"
She is Li Jinglong's wife and the youngest daughter of the late Ninghe King Deng Yu.
Although Deng Yu, King of Ninghe, is deceased, he was a general who followed the old emperor since he was a teenager. His achievements in life and death are not inferior to those of Xu Chang. His tomb was personally selected by the old emperor, and he was also included in the Hongwu Heroes.
The old prince always treats the dead better than the living. Even though Deng Yu is gone, the Deng family still has prestige in the army and can speak to the court.
The Deng family's natal family was no worse than the Li family, and the daughter of a military general's family was more aggressive, so Li Jinglong respected and accommodated his wife.
"Aren't you tired of reading the official book? Let's change the taste!" Li Jinglong sat down next to his wife and said with a smile, "Madam, I learned some new things today. I will teach you how to do it in the boudoir later."
"Bah!" Deng's face turned red, "You're not serious!"
While the couple was whispering, the housekeeper trotted over quickly, holding up his skirt, "Master, someone is coming from the palace!"
"In the palace?" Li Jinglong was stunned and immediately stood up, "Is it the old emperor..."
"The father-in-law who came here said that His Highness King Wu wants to pass you on!" said the steward.
Li Jinglong became more and more confused, "King Wu? Did he see me?" He continued to ask, "Is it really King Wu? Have you asked clearly?"
He knew that King Wu was favored by the old man, and he was thinking of getting in there. However, King Wu was still a prince after all, and had no right to receive his ministers in the palace.
"That's right, what I asked is true. The father-in-law who came here said that His Highness King Wu is waiting for you at Jingren Hall in the East Palace!"
"Hurry!" Li Jinglong understood that this was the old emperor's instruction, "Hurry up and change your clothes!" He then ordered, "You don't want the python suit, you want the iron armor. Don't get the new armor, use the one my father wore before.
Those old ones!”
The steward took the order and took the servants down to work.
Madam Deng asked in confusion, "Why are you wearing iron armor and entering the palace at night?"
"Your master, I am a military commander, so of course I wear armor!" Li Jinglong said with a smile.
"Bah!" Deng spat again, "I've never seen you read a book of war and practice martial arts!"
"What do you know?" Li Jinglong was a little confused, "Master, I knew how to fight even in my mother's womb!"
Deng said with a smile, "I heard from my father that all wars are fought by killing people. How can anyone be born with this skill? Those who survive are just lucky!"
"I can't tell you!" Li Jinglong was getting dressed under the service of his servants. "Do you have any good things at home? It doesn't have to be too expensive, just something that looks more sincere."
Deng asked curiously, "Is there anything in the palace?"
"You don't believe it when you say you have long hair and short knowledge!" Li Jinglong said, "If you have something in the palace, it is ours to give you. Is it the gift that matters? It's the heart!"
