In the side hall, there was a sound of bearings turning.
Zhu Biao, who has been in a wheelchair for quite some time, is now able to control the wheelchair by himself without relying on outsiders.
When he arrived in front of the old man, he looked at the old man's expression and smiled helplessly: "Didn't you see it too? That boy is hiding a lot of tricks."
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was exposed, immediately gave the prince a dissatisfied look.
"What a benevolent government! If it can be accomplished, it will be a great benevolent government that has never been accomplished by kings of all dynasties!"
Zhu Biao's face was calm, not as moved as the old man.
He just said lightly: "I don't know when it started. The emperor's power did not go to the countryside, so the power of the Tian family like us was sealed in the county government!"
As he spoke, the prince's face no longer had the previous state of leisurely clouds and wild cranes, cultivating the body and mind. There were bursts of murderous intent in his eyes, and his posture was so majestic.
Zhu Biao snorted coldly: "If it were not difficult for the imperial court to change, how could the local gentry be allowed to roam the countryside and feed the common people. In disaster years, they bought land at low prices, sold grain at high prices, and borrowed money at high interest rates. As a result, the common people had to sell their sons and daughters.
Selling land and body!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was probably touched by the prince's words. The unbearable scenes from his early years reappeared before his eyes, making him hum indignantly.
However, despite being angry, he sighed helplessly.
"This matter has been difficult to solve since ancient times. If a village tyrant is a village tyrant, he will be fine. But if a village tyrant gives birth to a village tyrant, it will be a disaster for the people."
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and shook his head, full of emotions: "We want the people to live a better life, but the countryside is where the most entangled interests are. It is intricate and complex, and one move can affect the whole body. If our father and son are
Sun, if you push it forward forcefully, if you are not careful, it will cause an uproar."
Since ancient times, imperial power has not been sent to the countryside, and the emperor's authority has been at the local county government level.
Further down, there is more of an alternative democratic autonomy system.
In other words, it is a system in which the powerful gentry’s democratic autonomy distributes local interests.
Zhu Biao frowned: "But this time, Yunxi can take advantage of the restructuring of the post station to bring this matter out. This may serve as a guide for future reforms in the court, and it may also help to see what problems may arise in advance." p>
Zhu Yuanzhang began to slowly slap his palms on the table, thinking deeply.
As an emperor.
Especially an emperor who always has the livelihood of the people in mind.
Zhu Yuanzhang thought all the time that all his decisions would be directly given to all living beings in the world, the billions of people.
Instead of circulating in the government, it will ultimately have to rely on the hands of the powerful gentry in the countryside to truly implement it.
After a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang had a plan in mind.
"This matter should be kept secret for now, and we will wait and see the response after the restructuring of the Zhili Station. If there is nothing wrong, we will test it out in the yamen of various ministries and departments in the DPRK, and then go to the various prefectures of the Ming Dynasty, and go down one level at a time.
."
This is a thorough innovation from top to bottom.
The old man’s strength cannot be ignored.
Zhu Biao couldn't help but look at the old man with majesty in his eyes, and couldn't help but chuckle after thinking about it.
Probably only the old man has such confidence and ability to accomplish this matter directly in the DPRK.
And with the imperial court taking the lead, taking the lead in reforming, and then implementing it in the prefectures and counties below, even if there will be twists and turns, as long as the center is not in chaos, there will be no major troubles in the local areas.
Zhu Biao even smiled and said: "Yun He's words today have inspired Erchen."
As he spoke, Zhu Biao looked at the old man.
Zhu Yuanzhang immediately asked: "What's the inspiration?"
Zhu Biao said: "If there are any major changes in the court in the future, or the transfer of military personnel to civil servants, it will be like now. Now the Zhili Supervisory Office will implement it one by one. In this way, even if something goes wrong at the local level
Even if there is chaos, the DPRK can respond calmly."
Speaking of this, Zhu Biao's eyes narrowed: "If there is really a big trouble, the surrounding local officials and health offices can also take action to suppress the local disobedience!"
Zhu Yuanzhang burst into laughter immediately, and then said quietly: "You have only been reading books and basking in the sun recently. You are always too idle. I will sort out this matter and put it away in the past few days. If that kid doesn't bring it up by then, you will take it.
Come out. If he brings it up, you should also bring it out and let that kid know. Whatever he can think of, we can think of it too!"
The old man actually became competitive with his grandson?
Zhu Biao was helpless for a moment and could only accept the job with a wry smile.
……
After leaving the main hall, Zhu Yunxi explained today's events to Xie Jin and the others, then drove them away and went back to the East Palace.
Nowadays, everything is progressing, and the political situation between North Korea and China can be considered peaceful.
But he couldn't let himself be idle.
A sense of urgency always weighs on his heart.
Liberate the productive forces of Ming Dynasty.
This is a problem so huge that he feels suffocated.
No matter how many reforms he makes now, the most they can do is patch up the Ming Dynasty, an empire that will eventually age.
Only by completely liberating productivity, improving production efficiency, improving resource utilization, and expanding resource collection.
Only in this way can we completely solve the most fundamental and core periodic problem of a feudal dynasty.
Whether it was his long-planned plan to share the grain between the peasants and the gentry, or the commercial and tax reform, they could only change and mitigate the future risks of the Ming Dynasty from the institutional perspective.
Only by changing Ming Dynasty technically and technologically can the most fundamental problem be solved.
Technology promotes social progress.
This scientific explanation was already drilled into Zhu Yunxi’s mind by his teacher when he was a teenager.
Just when he was about to rush back to the East Palace to plan the development route of Ming's science and technology.
The way in front of me was blocked by someone.
When he raised his head, he saw Fang Xiaoru, who was dressed in a blue shirt and Confucian uniform, standing with his hands hanging down at the foot of the corridor leading to the East Palace.
Zhu Yunxi immediately raised his hands and bowed: "Student has met Mr."
Fang Xiaoru quickly turned sideways and returned the courtesy: "I am here to see the great grandson of the emperor."
The two of them bowed and stood up almost at the same time.
Zhu Yunxi showed a smile on his face and asked curiously: "Why do you have time to come to the East Palace today?"
Speaking of which, Zhu Yunxi felt a little embarrassed.
Ever since he brought Fang Xiaoru into the palace, he had been trying to spread his reputation among the scholars and change his past cowardly and reserved nature towards others. I heard that it was because of the Xi'an Gate incident that he had quarreled with many scholars in the city.
After a while.
But in the reopened main hall, I only briefly studied with the clan uncles for a period of time. Because of the affairs in the court, I could no longer go there and continue studying.
Fang Xiaoru's face showed some dissatisfaction, and he said with some resentment: "The emperor's grandson has not been to the main hall for many days. The emperor's grandson is not yet an adult. Although there has been progress in the sages' articles and worldly principles, his knowledge is still there.
The more, the merrier.”
Seeing that this gentleman was really talking about this, Zhu Yunxi became even more embarrassed.
He cupped his hands and said, "Sir, everything in the DPRK and China has been uneasy recently. As a member of the royal family and the grandson of the emperor of the country, the student found that this time is always in short supply."
Fang Xiaoru nodded and said, "In that case, the emperor's grandson will allow me to do some homework to see if there are any shortcomings or omissions."
It seems that you are just here to check your homework?
Zhu Yunxi immediately nodded and agreed.
Then Fang Xiaoru asked a few questions, and Zhu Yunxi also followed the good advice, including the opinions of the sages in the course and his own analysis.
After flipping it down, Fang Xiaoru finally showed a relaxed smile.
"The emperor's grandson is busy with government affairs, but his homework has not fallen behind. He is as usual and quite insightful, so I feel relieved. However, if the emperor's grandson is free, he still has to go to the main hall to study carefully and read more.
Book."
Zhu Yunxi bowed again: "Students are willing to be taught and will never forget your teacher's sincere teachings."
At this point, he means that today's academic discussion is coming to an end.
But unexpectedly, Fang Xiaoru's face showed a rare hint of embarrassment.
Zhu Yunxi was a little curious: "Is there anything else, sir?"
Fang Xiaoru nodded, shook his head, and then hesitantly said: "I heard that today in the court... you sirs can put pen and ink on the stamp..."
Hahaha!
Zhu Yunxi almost laughed out loud.
Feelings, this gentleman also heard about the restructuring of the inn that was just discussed in the palace.
This person is now quite famous among scholars, and he has valued his reputation the most in his life. Now that there is such a thing to spread his reputation through stamps, how could he ignore it?
He is here to seek favors.
Zhu Yunxi immediately made a promise: "But the student forgot to tell the teacher that the student has already ordered the Hanlin scholar Jie Jin. Later, he will go to the teacher's home and ask for the teacher's calligraphy to be put on the stamp."
"Ah?" Fang Xiaoru opened her mouth and suddenly felt that her old face was hot and red.
Seeing that this student of the emperor's grandson had already arranged everything, I couldn't help but feel annoyed.
He quickly bowed and asked himself to leave.
As a student of the Emperor’s grandson, I still love my husband!
Fang Xiaoru, who fled all the way, was annoyed and happy at the same time. He just felt that he had indeed not chosen the wrong student.
……
"Has the grandson of the emperor forgotten me?"
Li Jinglong, Duke of Cao, walked into the Meridian Gate from outside the palace and was walking towards the East Palace. He lowered his head and murmured to himself.
I can’t count how many days it has been.
The emperor's grandson never went to his home again to learn military skills from him.
Does the emperor’s grandson no longer love me?
Li Jinglong felt a sense of career crisis for the first time.
My dream of being an imperial master seems to be getting further and further away.
Today, Li Jinglong finally couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to go to the palace to ask for...
No!
I want to win back the heart of the emperor’s grandson!
Li Jinglong had complicated emotions in his heart and hurried towards the East Palace as if there was wind.
But out of the corner of his eye, he saw someone rushing towards the East Palace.
It’s Liu Sanwu from Zhongshushe!
"It turns out it's Liu Sheren. I wonder where Liu Sheren is going in such a hurry?"
Li Jinglong immediately stopped, raised his hands in the air, and swayed, with an expression of knowingly asking questions.
Seeing Cao Guogong in the distance, Liu Sanwu, who had just received the news and hurriedly entered the palace, stopped reluctantly.
Facing Li Jinglong’s gaze.
Liu Sanwu smiled awkwardly, hiding his thoughts, and said casually: "There are some matters in the court, and I need to see the emperor's grandson."
Li Jinglong glanced at the old man and said with a slightly exaggerated expression: "Oh? It turns out that Liu Sheren is going to see the emperor's grandson. In this case, will I accompany Liu Sheren there?"
What does this guy mean?
Liu Sanwu watched Li Jinglong walking in front of him in confusion, feeling a little reluctant.
I am going to do something big.
If you ask him to follow you there, how will you speak?
However, Li Jinglong had already grabbed Liu Sanwu's arm and pulled him towards the East Palace, and kept saying, "Let's go, Liu Sanwu. Why are you still standing there?"
