One thousand eight hundred and twenty one explanation
Although Zhu Yunye was happy, reviewing the memorial was also really tiring for him.
He waved his hand to end the topic and said, "Uncle hasn't come to see me for several days. What have you been busy with these days?"
Han Du suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Zhu Yunye. What he said was very strange. He thought that his relationship with Zhu Yunye was not close. Although he had taught him for a while when he was a child, he became obviously alienated from him after he came to the throne.
.
He was even so suspicious of Han Du that he had to take a boat out to sea in those years to show his respect for Zhu Yunye.
At that time, Zhu Yunye had not seen Han Du for several years and had no intention of recruiting him back. Now he has not seen him for only a few days and he is starting to complain?
Regardless of whether others believe it or not, Han Du doesn't believe Zhu Yunye's current attitude.
Han Du knew that Zhu Yunye trusted Wang Yuanji and Tang Ding more than he did himself. .??.
But even if Han Du had a clear mind, since Zhu Yunye wanted to act like he was very close to his uncle, Han Du would not expose him.
He smiled faintly, nodded and replied, "I didn't do anything. Isn't it that the academy selection meeting is coming soon? I have been busy with academy matters recently."
"Academy selection meeting?" Zhu Yunye was stunned for a moment, then raised his head with a smile and said, "Is it about the academy's rewards? I've been too busy these days, so I forgot about it."
After saying that, Zhu Yunye asked curiously, "To be honest, uncle, you are really willing to give out 300,000 yuan as a reward. I was surprised for a long time."
After saying that, he stared into Han Du's eyes without blinking.
Han Du knew that this was Zhu Yunye testing himself again, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He was his uncle, and he didn't know where he came from to be so wary of him.
One moment he seemed to be close to him, but the next moment he suspected that he was up to no good because of the reward?
Although Han Du did have evil intentions, it was because Zhu Yunye looked down on it first, and it was Han Du's turn to pick it up, but he didn't remind Zhu Yunye.
I felt unhappy, but I had to answer.
Han Du thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "There is nothing you can do if you don't want to give up."
"What? Is there anyone who dares to force uncle?" Zhu Yunye said with a smile, "Uncle, don't worry, I'm here to see who has the heart and courage of a leopard."
This was said as if Zhu Yunye wanted to stand up for Han Du.
If Han Du hadn't known that he didn't have Zhu Yunye's complete trust, he might have believed his words.
After Han Du waited for him to finish speaking, he shook his head slightly, "Your Majesty is overly worried. I just thought that it is the academy that attracts students to study. If they cannot live a good life after studying, wouldn't it mean that the academy is sorry for them?"
"The Emperor also knows that there are not many academy students who are willing to serve as officials. More than half of them almost all stay in the academy to teach and educate people after gaining honors."
"I heard that the salary given to them by the academy is pretty good, higher than that of the Qipin County Magistrate." Zhu Yunye interrupted, shook his head and smiled, "This salary is not low, even I can't pay it."
Han Du glanced at him and thought that it was because you were stingy and it had nothing to do with the academy.
When Zhu Biao came to the throne
After that, the first thing he did was to increase the salaries of hundreds of officials, and then he increased them twice in succession.
Originally, everyone thought that after Zhu Yunye came to the throne, he would follow this practice and increase the salaries of officials. However, he said that the salary increase by the former emperor was already enough. If more were added, it would be difficult for the national treasury to maintain it, so it was just a symbolic payment.
I added a little, and then decided not to add any more.
What he said is correct. If the official salaries continue to increase, there will eventually come a day when the national treasury cannot bear it.
But the officials don't care so much, they only think that the salary they get is less.
Therefore, some people secretly called Zhu Yunye the "Emperor Shesou".
Now, who doesn’t know how much revenue the Ming Dynasty’s more than 100 overseas governors’ mansions can contribute to the internal treasury every year? Zhu Yunye still uses the treasury as an excuse, which will naturally cause dissatisfaction.
"Your Majesty." Han Du knew that this was Zhu Yunye expressing his dissatisfaction to him. After all, since he refused to increase his salary, the salary of the academy has been compared with the salary of officials every time.
However, every time it happened, Zhu Yunye felt disgraced. It was strange that he could be happy.
Han Du had to explain seriously, "They come to the academy to study and are willing to stay in the academy. I have to solve the troubles in life for them, right?"
"Not only do they receive such high salaries in the academy, but the academy also provides them with food and accommodation. Doesn't that count as providing them with a solution to their lives?" Zhu Yunye became excited and asked in a serious tone, "Now you still spend 300,000 yuan every year as
Reward, what do you want to do?"
Han Du had no choice but to continue to explain, "Yes, the academy did provide them with food and accommodation, and also gave them a good salary, which is enough for them to live carefree in the capital, but this is limited to themselves."
"But they also have parents, brothers, wives, daughters, and children. They also have families. If they want their families to live a carefree life in the capital, I'm afraid they can't do it with their little salary alone."
Zhu Yunye raised his brows and asked in a sharp voice with a strange ending, "What? You mean, you want everyone to live well in the capital?"
"Not everyone." Han Du quickly shook his head in denial.
He smiled and sighed and said, "I don't have that much ability yet. I came up with this firstly to reward those real geniuses and attract many students to study knowledge, and secondly to improve their lives."
Seeing Zhu Yunye just looking at him without saying anything, Han Du thought he didn't believe it, so he had to say, "Your Majesty, the reward of 100,000 gold seems to be a lot, but how many people can get it?"
"Oh?" Han Du asked back, and Zhu Yunye began to think seriously.
After a moment, he blinked and asked uncertainly, "What do you mean, uncle, there are only a few people who can get rewards?"
"It's a very small number!" Han Du emphasized and said with a smile on his face, "The reward is just a hope to encourage others to study. Only three people can really get it every year. And the academy currently has over 10,000 students, and the others
I can only watch the excitement from the sidelines."
Zhu Yunye didn't know whether he believed Han Du's explanation or had other plans. Anyway, he waved his hand to stop Han Du's words.
"Okay, then I will wait for the academy's grand event. Don't let me down then."
"Your Majesty, don't worry. Neither I nor the Academy will let you down." Han Du chuckled. Although Zhu Yunye was happy, reviewing the memorial was really tiring for him.
He waved his hand to end the topic and said, "Uncle hasn't come to see me for several days. What have you been busy with these days?"
