Chapter 12 Foreigners visit the palace

There are still many people queuing up in front of the supermarket to receive farmland these days. Almost all the farmland in Wuchang City is in the hands of the Prince's Mansion. The allocation and arrangement of more than 5,000 hectares of land is very cumbersome. Pang Man is very busy these days.

Zhu Muchen was solely responsible for allocating farmland to him.

Since Zhu Muchen gave farmland to the people rent-free, the supermarket business has become more and more prosperous, and his reputation has been widely praised by the people in Wuchang City. Many people have become accustomed to buying things in the supermarket, mainly because of the comprehensive range of things.

There is almost everything you want. There are juggling performances upstairs every day, and they are not repeated every day. If you buy some things, a family of three can watch the juggling for free, and they will not ask for rewards.

Recently, Zhu Muchen discovered that Zhu Meng was getting fatter and fatter, and would get dizzy from time to time. He thought that Zhu Meng must have high blood pressure. Although he knew the general problem, he didn't understand medical skills, so he could only prevent Zhu Meng from eating too much meat every day.

, insisting on taking Zhu Meng to run in the palace garden every day to lose weight.

"No, no, I can't run anymore." Zhu Meng squatted on the ground and panted.

Zhu Muchen patted Zhu Meng's back gently and said, "Father, please hold on, the end is ahead."

Zhu Meng smiled bitterly and said: "Chen'er, please slow down, please slow down."

Zhu Muchen held Zhu Meng's arm and said, "Okay, let's slow down, the queen mother is waiting for us in front.".?

Zhu Meng wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeves, glanced at the pavilion not far away and said, "Okay, okay, let's go." Zhu Muchen supported Zhu Meng and ran towards the pavilion not far away.

"Your Majesty, Chen'er, please help your father sit down and rest." Yuan Xi said with distress when seeing Zhu Meng's pale face.

"You can't sit down yet, let's use our hands and feet on the spot and adjust our breath." Zhu Muchen and Zhu Meng half-bowed and moved their hands back and forth.

Zhu Meng half-bowed his fat body and moved his hands back and forth: "Yes, you have to perform it." Compared with Zhu Muchen pulling him to run, performing it on the spot is much more comfortable. Since Zhu Muchen recovered from his brain disease, Zhu Meng has become more and more comfortable.

He loved his son so much that even if Zhu Muchen rented out the farmland, he would not interfere. He knew that his son was a money-lover and would not do a loss-making business, so he supported Zhu Muchen very much.

Yuan Xixi looked at the two father and son in front of him with a smile. Zhu Meng had been a soldier all his life, and this was the first time he had seen him look so embarrassed.

After using his hands and feet, Zhu Meng sat on the stone bench, took a sip of tea, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said: "I'm really not feeling dizzy these days, and my body feels much better. Although this run is a bit tiring, it's really like Chen."

My son said it’s very good for the body.”

Hearing this, Yuan Xi looked at Zhu Muchen in confusion and asked, "Chen'er, how did you know that running can treat dizziness?" Yuan Xi is also a well-read person, and she has never heard that running can treat dizziness.

She also found that Zhu Meng's dizziness had indeed not occurred in recent days.

Zhu Muchen responded: "Mom, running can't cure dizziness. It's just that my father's dizziness is caused by high blood pressure caused by excessive obesity. It can even be life-threatening in severe cases. You must eat less meat and eat more."

Vegetables, and running can be good for high blood pressure. Exercise can play a very good role in lowering blood pressure, because exercise can promote metabolism, discharge metabolic waste, and also reduce the effect of vasoconstrictor substances on vasoconstriction, and at the same time dilate blood vessels.

Increased secretion of substances helps lower blood pressure by dilating blood vessels."

"High blood pressure? Metabolism? Waste discharge?" Zhu Meng and Yuan Xi looked at Zhu Mengchen with puzzled faces.

Zhu Muchen ignored the expressions of the two of them. It was normal for them not to understand. After all, it was difficult to explain clearly to them in today's civilization.

Zhu Muchen touched his chin, thinking about how to make it easier to understand, and then said: "Anyway, my father will keep running in the future. Exercise can help improve the balance between the autonomic nerves of the heart and reduce the tension of the sympathetic nerves, which are responsible for the

The impact on the heart is to increase heart rate, enhance myocardial contractility and increase peripheral resistance, so patients with increased sympathetic tone will have high blood pressure. In addition, exercise itself will reduce vascular resistance and improve blood vessel elasticity, so exercise has a negative impact on the heart and the entire body.

It’s good for your health.”

Zhu Meng said with a serious look on his face, "Yes, hold on, hold on." Although Zhu Meng didn't understand, he kept nodding. Anyway, he probably meant just keep running.

Yuan Xi thought for a long time but didn't quite understand what Zhu Muchen said, so he asked with a smile: "Chen'er, where did you learn this?" There was not even a book in Zhu Muchen's room, and he found that Zhu Muchen's handwriting was very good and neat.

, if he hadn't watched Zhu Muchen grow up, he would have doubted that the person in front of him was not his child. Although she was more happy, she was still very curious about Zhu Muchen.

When Zhu Muchen heard this, he felt a little upset in his heart. This question was a bit difficult to answer. He found that both the prince and the princess were looking at him seriously, which made him a little embarrassed. He couldn't say that I didn't know what was going on. I just admired the wonder.

Has he time-traveled into your son?

"This..." Zhu Muchen scratched his head to organize his words, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer.

"Prince, Princess, Crown Prince." Just when Zhu Muchen was in trouble, a servant came to Zhu Meng in a hurry, as if there was something urgent.

Zhu Mengchen couldn't help but let out a long sigh in his heart. He came at the right time. He'd better be more careful when speaking from now on.

Zhu Meng turned around and asked, "What's the matter?".

The servant cupped his hands and said, "Go back to the prince. There are several foreigners outside the palace who want to see the prince and say they want to do business with him."

When Zhu Meng heard this, he waved his hand and said: "Foreigners? No see." He was enjoying the happiness of his family and chatting happily with his family. How could he have time to see foreign devils?

"Father, people are actually here. Let's go and take a look. These foreigners are full of good stuff." Zhu Muchen said with a playful smile. When Zhu Muchen heard that foreigners came to do business, he immediately became interested. Recently, he made a lot of money.

It's a lot of money, so it would be nice if I could buy some novelty gadgets to play with.

Zhu Meng smiled and pointed at Zhu Muchen and said: "You kid." Then he ordered the servant: "Go and take the foreigner to the side hall.".

Yuan Xi stood up with a smile and said: "I won't go. I'm going to see how Xiaoman and Ziyou are doing with their teacher."

Zhu Muchen suddenly realized that he had not seen the two girls for a long time today, and asked curiously: "Mother, what are they studying?".

Yuan Xi responded with a smile: "I have invited a teacher to teach them the Biography of Women and the Analects of Confucius." Ever since the two girls became Zhu Muchen's roommates, Yuan Xi had been very kind to them, and she could see it.

Zhu Muchen also liked these two girls very much, and after discussing with Zhu Meng, Yuan Xi planned to give them a status.

When Zhu Muchen heard this, he suddenly thought of the Ming Dynasty. In this history, feudal ethics had reached a new height, and the status of women could be said to have further declined. In other words, Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism had further restricted the scope of education that women could receive.

Those decadent sayings about "chaste and martyr women" basically come from the Ming and Qing dynasties.

But what is amazing is that under such circumstances, those women in the Ming Dynasty court who had no control over their own affairs, such as palace maids, concubines, etc., besides knitting women's clothing, women's virtues, etc., they also had to learn some serious knowledge.

Zhu Muchen should not be reminded of the magical "university education" of eunuchs. The Ming Dynasty was indeed an "unusual" dynasty.

Of course, the first thing the women in the Ming Dynasty had to learn was the so-called "virtue" education that was the most boring and depressing of people's vitality and vitality. Among the compulsory courses for court women, "Biography of Women", "The Analects of Women", etc.

etc. must be memorized first.

Zhu Muchen came to his senses, looked at the back of the princess not far away from the pavilion, bowed her hands and shouted: "Queen mother, walk slowly.", then chatted and laughed with Zhu Meng and walked towards the side hall.

As soon as Zhu Meng and Zhu Muchen entered the side hall, a foreigner who could speak Chinese saw them and said, "Hello, Your Majesty, Your Majesty." He then raised his hands to Zhu Muchen and said, "Hello, Your Excellency.", Zhu

Meng nodded without returning the gift and said, "Let's talk about the business you want to do." Then he sat on a chair and drank tea.

In the Ming Dynasty, foreigners had a low status and did not get much respect. At that time, the economy, military, and people's livelihood of the Ming Dynasty were much better than those in the West. Blue and white porcelain was sold overseas and became popular all over the world. The main reason was that the technological gap between China and foreign countries during this period also increased.

Not much. In addition, the life of the people in the Ming Dynasty was no worse than that of foreigners. They were generally considered to be foreigners and were not welcome.

It was only in the Qing Dynasty that the quality of life of the people declined due to poor development, while the West was very developed, so the phenomenon of worshiping foreign countries began to appear.
