Chapter 31 Now has come to the most dangerous time
After all this trouble, Yang Feng was no longer interested in going to Sanshan Gate. He immediately drove his carriage back to Wutai Mountain, and met the Jin Yiwei who was looking for him halfway.
Of course he still has the Imperial Guards by his side.
It's just that he has been walking on the streets like this every day for the past few days. Not only has he scouted the route of action in advance, but he has also paralyzed the latter's vigilance to the maximum extent.
Then he saw the opportunity and suddenly ran away.
Those Jin Yiwei were on foot and had been walked by him for most of the day. They were already exhausted and could only watch him run away.
Of course, the main reason is that these imperial guards also know that he cannot escape from the city gate.
The Jin Yiwei who led the team looked at him with a resentful look, as if a virtuous and virtuous woman was looking at her man who had been drained of money by outside vixens and driven back, claiming to be the prodigal son, and then he responded with the same virtuous and virtuous attitude De sighed, dragged his tired body and silently led his men over to continue following his carriage...
“Does your children go to school for free?”
Yang Feng suddenly asked.
"We military families all have martial arts passed down in our families in order to prepare for going into battle to kill the enemy. What's the point of learning that article? However, if there are really those who are willing to learn literature, they can enter the School of Health. It does not cost any money."
the officer said.
"What about the people?"
"There is social studies among the people. If you study well, you can enter the county school. Social studies do not cost money. They are all paid by the government. Teachers are not allowed to collect money and materials without authorization. As for entering the county school and passing the scholar examination, you will not only be exempted from the service , the court also gives another six buckets of rice every month.”
"Does that mean private children go to social education for free?"
"Yes, it doesn't cost money to go to social studies, but regardless of food, pens, inks, paper, inkstones and books, you still have to buy them by yourself. Besides, children are also laborers, so unless they have some financial resources, or their parents grit their teeth to provide for them, a child can't Without going to school, no one's children are allowed to go to the fields to farm.
If you go back and ask Zhang Hanlin about this, you will know that his family is just an ordinary person and he learned it through hard work."
"Hey, he still comes from a miserable background?"
"It was quite difficult. It is said that his father died when he was young, so he relied on his mother to knit straw sandals to support him."
the officer said.
"Everyone who makes straw sandals has a bright future."
Yang Feng said.
So Zhu Yuanzhang was not only promoting free medical care for all, he was even promoting free education for all.
Regardless of whether he has various problems, first of all, the free education system has been established, but I am afraid that the civil servants are more enthusiastic about this. After all, this is to cultivate reserve forces for them, so free education is not important, what is taught is the most important. As long as it is still In the end, Confucian classics only served as a building block for scholar-bureaucrats, such as Zhang Xianzong. He relied on Confucianism to achieve his current status precisely because of his poor background, so he believed even more in his sage way...
Such people are the most troublesome.
This belongs to the fanatics.
Therefore, those who passed the imperial examination in the early Ming Dynasty were all very hard-boned.
Zhang Xianzong did not surrender later. When Zhu Di invaded Nanjing, he recruited troops and horses for Jianwen in Jiangxi, and was then kidnapped and sent to the capital.
He was later exiled to the northwest, which means that at least he did not lick Zhu Di.
Xu Guan, also known as Huang Guan, who was the top scholar in his class, committed suicide, and Wu Yanxin, the prodigy's prodigy, disappeared, but the most likely reason is that the whole family died in the chaos. The former was not from a high background, and his father was a surrogate son-in-law.
They are really completely different from Wei Zaode and his gang.
In a sense, Jianwen was the hope of the Confucian scholars and their first attempt to control the Ming Dynasty.
Although it failed.
But fortunately they have enough time.
As long as the education system is in their hands, generations of reserve forces will be continuously cultivated, and then they will use time to survive, and use their endless advantages to eventually defeat all those who hinder them. Tyrants will survive, and Xun
The nobles turned into useless people and finally succeeded in seizing power. In the end, the emperors of the Lao Zhu family could only rely on the eunuchs, but by then they had become caged birds. No matter how they fluttered, they could not fly out of their cages.
"So education is the most important thing!"
Yang Feng sighed with emotion.
At this time, there was another chaos ahead...
"Which king is this?"
He looked at another filial man on the street in front of him who was being hugged and hugged.
The soldiers and civilians on the roadside were all saluting and shouting "Your Majesty" one by one, like a group of landlords fighting against each other.
"This is His Royal Highness King Xiang."
the officer said.
That was the one who was forced to death by Jianwen.
"You couldn't see the vassal king when your prince was buried. How come he has already been laid to rest, but all these vassal princes are here?"
Yang Feng said with some confusion.
Then he woke up...
"Ah, the prince died and a new prince had to be established. There is no new prince yet, so he has been called back for inspection. However, King Yan is good at fighting, so it is reasonable to call him back. What skills does this King of Xiang have?"
he said.
"The King of Xiang is both civil and military, and he is the most friendly with the King of Yan. This time King Yan came to the capital according to the imperial edict. After learning about it, he invited himself to the capital to meet him. The Xiang Mansion is in Jingzhou, and it won't take long to go down the river to the capital, so he was able to
I entered the capital on the same day, but I didn’t hear that any vassal king came to the capital according to the imperial edict. Prince Yiwen was buried without the need for other kings to come to the capital. Before the funeral, the king was ordered to leave the country by his majesty, and the king of Liao had just left."
The officer answered cautiously.
So this is why Lao Zhu specially called Zhu Di back for inspection.
This also explains why Jianwen wanted to attack Zhu Bai.
Jingzhou!
Wang Yi, Huan Wen and others said that our place bullies the lower reaches.
This place was in the hands of a vassal king who had the best relationship with Zhu Di. Jianwen really didn't dare to take the initiative to attack Zhu Di.
Otherwise, once Zhu Di rebelled and Zhu Bai's three guards went down the river, as long as the king of Chu in the middle did not block it or even joined forces, it could be said that the troops would arrive in the capital in a blink of an eye. This can be clearly seen from the several vassal kings Jianwen solved.
, he is dealing with Zhu Di. Zhou Wang Zhu Ji, Zhu Di's half-brother, acting king Zhu Gui, Zhu Di's brother-in-law, princess and Xu Da's daughter, Xiang Wang Zhu Bai, have the best relationship with Zhu Di, the three most likely to support Zhu Di.
Clean it up.
Then deal with Zhu Di.
Come step by step.
And as long as Zhu Di is dealt with, the other vassal kings will be easy to deal with.
So on this issue, Jianwen actually didn't make a mistake. He just followed the steps and followed an inevitable process, including Zhu Di's rebellion, which was probably also being calculated.
It is impossible not to calculate this kind of thing well.
It's just that he didn't expect that he didn't win.
Yang Feng looked at Zhu Bai passing in front of him with a sigh on his face. At this time, Zhu Bai was obviously a handsome young man in his early twenties. He was sitting on a horse and looking around proudly, and there were constant sounds on both sides.
He moved forward with the king's voice, and soon the team passed by in front of him. Yang Feng drove his carriage and continued forward, and soon arrived at the foot of Wutai Mountain, and then saw the little princess standing in front of the door tremblingly.
When he came back, he quickly pointed at her small temple...
Yang Feng got out of the car as quickly as possible. Before the guards could wake up, he picked up his backpack without hesitation, and then completed his full armor in front of Xiaoyu's astonished eyes.
The little princess was also dumbfounded.
"Lead the way!"
Yang Feng said and opened the safety, as if in a combat posture.
"You, you, you just go in like this?"
she said.
"Nonsense, you have to be fully armed when you see your father. Now is the most dangerous time. I don't think it's safe even if I don't load the bullets!"
Yang Feng said simply.
Immediately afterwards, Commander Jiang, who was dressed in casual clothes, walked out with a large number of Jin Yiwei who were also in casual clothes, and then drew their swords without hesitation. Including those who originally followed Yang Feng, a large group of Jin Yiwei quickly completed the encirclement, and everyone looked at him eagerly.
Yang Feng......
"Let him in!"
Zhu Yuanzhang's voice sounded inside.
Holding a gun, Yang Feng walked in proudly against the wall under the watchful eye of Commander Chiang, and then quickly leaned against a big tree.
However, Commander Jiang behind him had silently closed the door.
"It seems you know what I'm looking for you to do."
Zhu Yuanzhang stood in the yard with his hands behind his back and said with his back to him.
"Your Majesty, I just want to visit the outer city. Isn't this also possible?"
Yang Feng said unhappily.
"You want to run?"
Zhu Yuanzhang sneered.
"Your Majesty, what you said is wrong. I have freedom of movement. This is what you engraved on the iron coupon. I am not your prisoner. Naturally, I can go wherever I want."
"The iron coupon is given to you by me. What I say counts. To others, it is my golden words. To me, the iron coupon is just an iron plate. I allow you to have freedom of action. I am the one who allows you. I am not allowed.
You, then you don’t have freedom of movement. You can go wherever you want within the inner city of the capital, but you cannot leave the inner city. Don’t mention you. Even I, the people of the Ming Dynasty, want to find a way out from the government if they want to go hundreds of miles away.
Do you think you can leave this capital and walk around as you please without a road?"
"Your Majesty, your laws are only for your subjects, but I am not your subject."
"Then my laws will not protect you. As long as you dare to leave the inner city of the capital, anyone from the Ming Dynasty outside will not be guilty of killing you. But if you dare to kill the people of the Ming Dynasty, you are an enemy of the Ming Dynasty."
"Then do you think your subjects can kill me? I have a full set of equipment and no shortage of supplies. If I want to leave, there is really nothing in this Ming Dynasty that can stop me."
Yang Feng said.
Zhu Yuanzhang turned around and looked at him.
Yang Feng held his rifle, leaned against the big tree, and looked at him.
"Why do you want to run away? Are you afraid that I will ask you questions that you don't want to answer?
You should know that I will decide on the crown prince in the next few days. You also know who the crown prince I will appoint is, and you also know that something will happen to this crown prince later. Are you afraid that I will silence you if you tell me? I am not that good, and you are not.
It's very useful. I can't bear to kill you like this. Even if you say something that shouldn't be said, you know it and I know it. There's no need to silence me. I don't understand. Did I make the wrong choice?
If the choice of him is wrong, and the country is still my Zhu family, then it will be a change of the vassal king seizing the throne.
But I still can’t figure out how big a mistake he had to make to be able to defeat a vassal king and three guards with all the soldiers in the world?”
Zhu Yuanzhang said.
