Chapter 169 The Truth Comes Out

Chapter 169 The truth comes out

Of course, Lan Yu was not interested in whether his lies were heresies or the normal thoughts of future generations.

Even if it is a normal thought, it is fallacy.

Everyone is a noble...

Although in fact they all started out with humble beginnings.

But after all, they all want to be princes and nobles for generations, and their descendants can be great people. Otherwise, everyone is fighting for their lives and fighting for decades to earn it. Is it just to let the descendants and the mud-legged people be on an equal footing?

It doesn’t make sense!

Not only Zhu Yuanzhang could not accept Yang Feng's fallacies, but also these princes and even the generals of the guards could not accept it. Even if they temporarily formed an alliance for a common goal, they would eventually have to distinguish this principle issue clearly. But since he didn't

Teaching these things, just teaching techniques, is acceptable. Putting aside the issue of fallacies and heresies, Yang Feng's volunteer education plan is indeed very useful.

Now the Three Wizards are fighting for hegemony, although it actually has nothing to do with the common people.

What's the business of the common people?

Those who supported Zhu Yunxi were military generals, and they were all honorable men.

Duke Lanyu, Duke Chang Sheng, Marquis Cao Zhen...

If you are not a public servant, you are a noble.

Supporting Zhu Yunwen were civil servants and vassal kings.

Needless to say about the latter, the civil servants were also a class of scholar-bureaucrats. Even in the current Ming Dynasty, there were indeed some who served as farm ministers, but in fact the core of Confucian scholars were still from aristocratic families.

Support Zhu Di...

Well, Zhu Di's only supporters are his own cronies.

But there are no real common people.

However, after all, people's hearts are something that can be said to be politically correct. Everyone knows that it is useless, but everyone has to call for what the people's hearts want. Zhu Di wants to put a saint's halo on himself by welcoming Jiahe. Zhu Yunwen has the support of Confucian scholars behind him, but people's hearts are not popular.

After all, it is up to the Confucian scholars to shout.

In this case, Zhu Yunxi needed something to fight against.

Or say your own right to speak.

Volunteer studies.

As the emperor's grandson's personal identity, he established voluntary schools in various places, and then recruited private students to let them praise the emperor's virtues, benevolence, and filial piety.

This way you have your own right to speak.

As for the emperor...

Don't worry about it at all.

Because he allows private schools to run free schools.

Since he allows private individuals to run charity schools, is there anything wrong with his grandson responding to the call and taking the lead in running charity schools? There is no need to ask him to apply, the emperor's grandson did it himself, so what can he say? What did you do wrong?

It was you who asked me to run the charity school!

Not letting the court give money?

There was no need for money from the court in the first place!

The emperor's grandson asked Yang Feng for a loan himself, and it was not paid by the court.

so……

"Be brave. Even if you do it, what can he do?"

The little princess encouraged the emperor's grandson.

"But……"

The emperor's grandson hesitated.

"I dared to elope with someone when I was twelve, but I don't dare to make my own decision at seventeen?"

His aunt continued to destroy people tirelessly.

"I think the word elopement is a bit inappropriate, right?"

Yang Feng was speechless.

"Then what do you think we were back then?"

The little princess asked in a rather arrogant manner with her hands on her hips.

"It doesn't matter, it's all approved by the emperor's decree a long time ago. Since others can run free schools, why can't I? But since it's a free school, where do these teachers come from? It's easy for students to say, let's take those people who have been enlightened but have advanced.

Those who have no hope of learning are already literate, but their Confucianism is a bit poor. Come to our free study to learn some practical skills, so that they can settle down and make a living in the future.

But this is not easy for the teacher.

In addition, whatever books you study, you have to find a way to compile them."

Zhu Yunxi said.

He is the grandson of the emperor, and he is already seventeen years old!

His aunt dared to elope with someone when she was only twelve years old, but he still dared not make the decision once when he was seventeen?

Isn’t it just free study?

It's not forbidden. It was originally advocated by his grandfather. What's wrong with him in responding to his grandfather's call? Common people can run charity schools, but as the emperor's grandson, can't he? Just like a real prince, he can make his own decisions.

!

"The teaching materials are easy to handle, just leave it to me. As for the teacher, it is indeed a bit troublesome."

Yang Feng said.

The textbook is the simplest.

Leave it to Sister Liu and ask her to find someone to compile some basic popular science textbooks, and then add some practical technologies that can be realized in this era. In fact, some of the technologies in the factories in Mount Wutai can be incorporated into the textbooks.

In short, start with basic science and then add practical technology.

It's like a technical school.

We can even arrange for students to go to factories and construction sites for internships. The purpose of these students is not to join Yang Feng’s employees in the future, but to allow them to establish their own businesses in various places. Now we are starting to open volunteer schools, Zhu Yuanzhang

After his death, the first batch of students also graduated. After the emperor's grandson succeeded to the throne, he encouraged private industry and commerce. They, who can be said to be disciples of the emperor, can develop in various places based on what they have learned.

In the final analysis, what Yang Feng wants is for Ming Dynasty running to enter a higher stage.

We should encourage the people to develop on their own.

These students have a broader vision and more advanced science, including economic thought, and are bound to become emerging private capitalists, and their background determines that they are one with the emperor's grandson.

In this way, the emperor's grandson has a basic base.

As emerging capitalists, they did not need Yang Feng to do anything. They would push the emperor's grandson to go on the path envisioned by Yang Feng. At that time, it was not Yang Feng who was single-handedly promoting the social development of the Ming Dynasty, but

An emerging interest group was pushing the Ming Dynasty to accelerate forward. It was difficult for Zhu Yunxi to change at that time. He would be pushed by his students on this chariot he built, and what Yang Feng needed to do was,

Just keep an eye on them and don't let them run so fast that they overturn the car.

This is planning for the future.

Of course, the current main task is to create an image of the Holy Lord and Mingjun for the Emperor's grandson.

"Let your adopted daughters teach them!"

The little princess said suddenly.

"Uh, are you serious?"

Yang Feng said in shock.

but……

It seems really possible!

Because his adopted daughters have actually received many years of basic science education.

It's an exaggeration to say that they have been with him for just over two years. After all, they have only been with him for a little over two years. But ever since he took these adopted daughters, he has been letting them learn, and of course he can't teach the Four Books and Five Classics, just some basic things. Astronomy and geography.

, physical chemistry, animals, plants, and even bacteria are all taught. Although they are only basic, in fact, his adopted daughters, who often wear Pikachu and parade around the city, have the richest basic scientific knowledge in this era.

Everyone's knowledge level can be considered profound in this era.

They even know about gravity!

And because Yang Feng was like a god in their eyes, they believed in everything.

Whatever Yang Feng taught them, they believed in.

If there is anyone suitable to be a teacher in the Ming Dynasty at this time, then there is really no one more suitable than them. After all, the initial teaching is basic science. As for practical technology, it is not yet available. That person can be found among the craftsmen.

, but the only problem is, letting a group of little girls teach a group of...

Well, their students are actually about the same age as them.

Zhu Yunxi’s student selection is very good.

That is, from the current social studies, rural studies, including folk righteous studies in various places, we are looking for those Mongolian children who are unable to continue on the road to the imperial examination and whose level of Confucianism is not enough, but who are already literate.

This is the best source of students.

They are basically thirteen or fourteen years old. No matter how old they are, they should start a family and start a business.

Among Yang Feng's adopted daughters, the eldest is about the same age. If such a group of so-called young girls are allowed to teach those teenagers, no one will be late for class. The only problem is that the impact may not be good, after all, they are put together like this.

, there is no guarantee that something will not happen, and Confucian scholars may seize the opportunity to attack you in the future.

But it's not a big deal.

If you really want it, Ambassador Yang will be very happy to make it happen.

"Okay, you did make a good suggestion.

But why do I feel that you have ulterior motives? It’s not because you want to play, right?”

Yang Feng looked at the little princess who was obviously eager to try and said.

"Nonsense, I'm a princess!"

The little princess said insincerely.

"ha!"

Yang Feng despised him.

He could be sure that this guy's purpose for making this suggestion was actually to pretend to be a teacher.

"But if you let a group of women teach you, it will inevitably arouse criticism."

The emperor's grandson said.

"What are you afraid of? Besides, we are not teaching the Four Books and the Five Classics. We just want to be different from those Confucian scholars from the beginning. They teach the Four Books and the Five Classics. We teach technology. They get some famous Confucians, and we get a group of gorgeous women. From then on,

We will confront them from the beginning."

The little princess continued to push her nephew down the crooked road.

"Not all of them are taught by them. They only teach basic science and are not considered teachers. They are just responsible for explaining.

Give them whatever identity you want.

You don’t need to have the word “Master” on it.”

Yang Feng said.

Since the emperor's grandson can only accept this, Yang Feng does not need to take care of the rest. The emperor's grandson has his own cronies, and Lan Yu is in charge. It is nothing more than setting up a few pilot projects in the capital first, and then slowly moving forward.

To put it aside, in fact, just around the capital is enough. After all, the main purpose is to show off.

Yang Feng returned to Wutai Mountain and quickly asked Sister Liu to compile teaching materials and then select his adopted daughters.

At this time, Jin Yiwei completed the investigation of two assassinations vigorously and resolutely.

They are all from the White Lotus Sect.

The people who assassinated the Emperor Taisun and King Yan were members of the White Lotus Sect, and the people who assassinated the Prince of Guangze were Zhu Yunwen, who was also the White Lotus Sect. After they failed to assassinate the Emperor Taisun and King Yan, they instigated infighting between the brothers, deliberately fighting for the emperor.

Taisun took revenge and assassinated King Guangze.

What a vicious intention!

Although the emperor's grandson and King Guangze have a deep love for each other, they will never succeed.

But my heart is so bad!

Therefore, His Majesty the Emperor once again issued an order to strictly ban the demons of the White Lotus Sect in various places, confiscate and burn all the demon books of the White Lotus Sect. Once a gathering of demons of the White Lotus Sect is found, the nearby guard posts must be cleared immediately.

In short, the professional scapegoat Bailianjiao once again took the blame.

The only problem is that the weapons used by the assassins are hard to explain...

Privately made.

As for how to obtain the manufacturing method, this is a separate investigation, so there is no need to put it together.

Anyway, the case was closed quickly.

"The truth is out!"

Yang Feng said with emotion.

He was at the Longjiang Shipyard at this time. This originally huge shipyard was even busier now, because King Yan had determined the size of the fleet to welcome Jiahe. There were a total of sixty new warships, each with a cost of three thousand materials.

, built entirely according to one drawing to save time.

As for investment, it doesn't matter.

It's nothing more than printing money.

But because the news of the Japanese gold and silver mountains has already spread, and His Majesty the Emperor has also decreed that once the Japanese gold and silver mountains start to issue silver, the exchange of treasure banknotes and silver will be liberalized, so the currency value of the treasure banknotes is stable, although currently this

It's still a pie, but after all, there is a big pie to support it.

Mountains of gold and silver!

Then you don’t have to worry about the depreciation of your treasure banknotes.

Since these new warships require a large number of high-quality craftsmen, especially the guidance of Ambassador Yang, they can only be built at the Longjiang Shipyard.

For this purpose, the number of docks must even be increased.

Now a large number of civilians are busy digging new docks in front of them.

Next to him, Zhu Di had a calm smile on his face.

Of course, this result is inevitable. His Majesty the Emperor made Zhu Yunwen the Prince of Guangze County. In fact, it was clear that the case was over and there would be no further investigation. His Majesty the Emperor just wanted to let two grandsons and one son fight, and then choose the best one.

The heir who suits his own preferences. Although Zhu Yunxi is still the emperor's grandson, since the investigation will not continue, it means that the emperor finally began to reconsider his position as crown prince. This is a good thing for Zhu Di, although it adds another competition

Opponent, but he saw that Zhu Yunxi's position as crown prince was wavering. As long as this position was shaken, he would have hope.

"The imperial edict to transport ironwood keels from Guangdong has been issued. It is estimated that they will be shipped from Guangdong before the sea breeze changes in winter.

By that time these dockyards were also completed.

Other lumber is available here, so we can start work this winter.

As for the tar and asphalt that the ambassador mentioned, I have to ask the ambassador."

Zhu Di said.

For this level of ocean voyage, the most important thing for a battleship is its sturdiness. Currently, the strongest shipbuilding material in the Ming Dynasty is, of course, ironwood. Guangdong ironwood is actually mainly produced in Annan. Although it is definitely not possible to use ironwood entirely.

But the keel must be made of ironwood.

As for tar and asphalt, these are also essential.

After all, this kind of voyage is different from Zheng He's voyage to the West.

The latter is to jump along the coastline, constantly docking for maintenance and supplies, and this requires sailing for two consecutive months without stopping at any coast, spanning tens of thousands of kilometers of ocean, even if it sets sail from Fuso, it will take eight days.

It takes 9,000 kilometers to see land.

So the boat must be strong.

Otherwise, there would be no place in the vast Pacific Ocean to dock for maintenance.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, construction will start this winter, and the first batch of sea trials will begin next spring. Sixty warships will be built in one year, and sea trials will be carried out while they are being built. All preparations will be completed at the beginning of the next year, and then they will set sail in May of the next year, first to Fuso and then east across the ocean.

.

Ying Jiahe was completed in one year.

I will probably be able to present the golden harvest to Your Majesty in May of the 31st year of Hongwu."

Yang Feng said.

This time must be grasped well.

Because originally in history, Zhu Yuanzhang died in the fifth month of the 31st year of Hongwu.

Go for it!

At this time Zheng He walked up to Zhu Di and whispered a few words.

Zhu Di suddenly turned his attention to Yang Feng.

"Ambassador, you'd better go to Denwen Drum Courtyard, maybe there will be a surprise!"

He said with a strange smile.
