Chapter 375: The Kingdom of Ming Dynasty, the Kingdom of China!
Zhu Yuanzhang quickly left. When leaving, he held Ma Xiuying's hand, fearing that his queen would be left behind.
This was the first time that Ma Xiuying was held by Zhu Yuanzhang's hand in public. She blushed so much that she walked forward quickly with her head lowered.
The people followed Zhu Yuanzhang's footsteps and moved forward, unable to stop him at all. Even if the soldiers from the surrounding pro-jun Duwei Mansion drew their swords, they could not stop the people's enthusiasm.
In order to facilitate the management of the port, the residence of Chief Minister Fu Min was not very far from the seaside. However, it was such a short journey, and Zhu Yuanzhang walked for two hours before entering the residence.
The camp prepared for Zhu Yuanzhang was still some distance away, but now Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't get out at all. He could only stay in the residence of the Chief Envoy for a while and wait for the people outside to disperse before leaving.
Zhu Yuanzhang seemed very excited. After drinking a large glass of water, he happily said to Ma Xiuying: "Sister, have you felt the enthusiasm of the people? Tsk... They all remember what we have done for the people over the years.
, Good! That’s great! Our life is worth it! Haha!”
Ma Xiuying also agreed with what Zhu Yuanzhang said, but she only agreed. She was still a little embarrassed now: "What did you say you... did? How embarrassing is it to hold hands in public?"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the embarrassed Ma Xiuying, but he didn't feel the slightest bit embarrassed himself: "What's the point of being embarrassed? Sister, you usually don't have much time to go out. In Qiwu, we often took our younger siblings to the streets in Yingtian.
When were we not holding hands? At the beginning, we received many memorials criticizing the impact of the July 5th Five-Year Plan and its corrupt morals. Now that ordinary people like to hold hands and walk together, the number of memorials criticizing the July 5th Five-Year Plan has gradually decreased. This is okay...
Although we are the emperor and you are the queen, we are still a couple, aren't we? Next time we return to Yingtian, I will definitely take you out for a walk, and then we will walk hand in hand."
"It's nonsense, isn't it? We are so old and we don't know how to be ashamed."
Ma Xiuying looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with expectation in her eyes: "However, you are so busy. I'm afraid there will be a lot of things waiting for you when you get back. It's better not to go out."
How could Zhu Yuanzhang not see Ma Xiuying's expectations?
It was really inappropriate to say that you were busy at this time. Instead, he waved his hand and said to Ma Xiuying: "What's the point? I'll take you out when you get back. Is there any place in the world that I can't go to? Go!"
When the time comes, turn Yingtian around again!"
It sounds nice to say it, but when it comes to taking action, it's another story.
Zhu Yuanzhang was not in a hurry to respond to Tian, but was planning to visit several surrounding provinces. Anyway, there were still two months before the Chinese New Year, so Zhu Yuanzhang didn't seem to be in a hurry at this time.
For more than a year, Zhu Yuanzhang traveled all over the world, but he never relaxed his surveillance of the court. Zhu Yuanzhang learned that Zhu Biao, with the help of Zhu Han, was quite effective in managing the court. The six departments
Reforms are also being advanced simultaneously, which makes Zhu Yuanzhang feel more at ease: "In more than a year, Biao'er has grown a lot, and there are many things that we don't need to worry about anymore. When we go back and deal with some small things, we will
I can relax now."
This year, Zhu Biao and Zhu Yuanzhang made progress. He felt that he could no longer manage the court in this way, so he was also looking for changes.
As for how to change it, it depends on the situation in the court.
But it's all going in the right direction, isn't it?
…
By the time Zhu Yuanzhang returned to Yingtian, it had already entered the twelfth lunar month, and the New Year was about to begin.
When Zhu Yuanzhang came back, hundreds of officials greeted him outside the south gate of Yingtian Mansion, and they shouted long live together with the people. Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the courtiers kneeling on the ground, and was not so excited. He knew that many of these officials
I don't want him to come back.
However, Zhu Han, Zhu Biao, Xu Da, Li Shanchang, Yang Xian... and others will not have second thoughts.
Besides, as long as Zhu Han is here, Zhu Yuanzhang will not have any worries even if he is the enemy of the world.
On the first day after returning to Yingtian, Zhu Yuanzhang continued to let Zhu Biao supervise the country on the grounds that he needed to rest after being tired from traveling and traveling. The courtiers all knew that even if Zhu Yuanzhang took a rest, he would not rest for a month. Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely leave before the Chinese New Year.
But what they didn't know was that after Zhu Yuanzhang returned to the palace, he immediately changed his outfit and appeared in Zhu Han's palace.
Zhu Han had expected that Zhu Yuanzhang would come, so he had been waiting for him early in the morning. The steaming hot pot was ready. After Zhu Yuanzhang entered the room, he could smell the aroma of the hot pot base and the delicious taste of beef and mutton. He couldn't help but swallow it.
He spat: "I haven't had hot pot like this for a long time, haha... We are here at the right time today to satisfy your craving."
"Brother, didn't you eat these things outside?"
Zhu Han was surprised and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang: "Let's not talk about anything else. Let's talk about Australia and Yinzhou. There must be 100,000 cattle and dairy cows, right? Sheep are even more useless. You have everything on the boat, why didn't you think about it?
Want something to eat?”
"This... how can we be willing to kill farm cattle and dairy cows?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was a little embarrassed and said to Zhu Han: "We know what you want to say, but we are not used to living such a lavish life. Qiwu, do you think we are living a stingy life?"
That's quite stingy.
Zhu Han also knew that people like Zhu Yuanzhang were used to living in poverty, and it was already very difficult to change. He simply stopped mentioning it, called Zhu Yuanzhang over, and then took out the craft beer: "Come on, brother, this is
The new beer from our brewery in Daming is so delicious that you can’t get enough of it, please try it.”
The process of beer is not complicated, but it is a bit difficult to store. Zhu Han can't take care of that. He makes the thing first. As for whether it can be stored for a long time in the future, it depends on the wisdom of the Ming Dynasty.
The research has been done.
Zhu Yuanzhang took a sip of beer and smacked his lips: "It's tasteless. I'd better drink something to drink."
Zhu Han had no choice but to get him two bottles of liquor, and the two brothers started drinking one bottle each.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The two drank a few glasses of wine, and the final topic still boiled down to the development of Ming Dynasty: "Qiwu, we went out for a walk this time and found out
In the past, we were just toads at the bottom of the well, and we believed what you said, Qiwu, that the world... is just a ball."
Zhu Han didn't say anything. Zhu Yuanzhang was filled with emotion, but when he came to Zhu Han, he didn't just say a few words of emotion and be done with it. He must have other things to say.
Zhu Yuanzhang talked about his findings and emotions, and then returned to the issue of how to govern the country: "Qiwu, the arithmetic you mentioned to me before, how do you think it should be improved so that it can be included in the scope of attracting talents in the court?
"
Zhu Han answered with two words: "Jian Xue."
"Brother, the school I'm talking about is not a school that only studies the Four Books and Five Classics now, but a school that includes science and literature."
Zhu Han told his plan, which made Zhu Yuanzhang feel numb after hearing it: "Every county, even every township, must have a school. This school belongs to the education department, and the teachers invited have their own establishments. They
Responsible for teaching arithmetic and literature."
There is no biology and physical chemistry yet, only literature and arithmetic. If you add military science, this will be enough.
Zhu Han continued to say to Zhu Yuanzhang: "However, now we can find too few talents, and there are not such a large number of teachers. We can only choose a few cities from Yingtian or the north and let them teach arithmetic. When more and more people come to teach arithmetic,
Only when more talents are cultivated can our education system be completed."
Every township must have a school...and teachers are paid from the national treasury. How many teachers are there? How much does it cost?
Thinking of the money that would be sent out from the treasury, Zhu Yuanzhang felt heartbroken, but after hearing what Zhu Han said, he couldn't help but yearn for it. If schools could be spread to the countryside, it would mean that all children in the Ming Dynasty could read.
Read, Ming Dynasty’s talents will inevitably experience a blowout in the future.
Thinking about the Ming Dynasty, there were many overseas enclaves many times more than the Ming Dynasty... Zhu Yuanzhang felt that the money invested in running schools was well spent.
"Dry!"
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes turned red and he said to Zhu Han: "Before we die, we must run the school!"
Having said this, Zhu Yuanzhang paused and continued to Zhu Han: "We are going to let Biao'er do this. Qiwu, what do you think?"
"Um?"
Zhu Han looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, a little surprised.
This old brother of mine is actually willing to delegate power?
"Well, it's not impossible...Brother, what do you think?"
It is the responsibility of the father and son to kick the ball to Zhu Yuanzhang again. Zhu Han is only responsible for making suggestions. It is up to Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao to decide how to do it.
"You kid, are you still worried that I will compete with Biao'er for power?"
Zhu Yuanzhang rolled his eyes, and then said to Zhu Han: "Only when we go out will we know how big the Ming Dynasty is. Qiwu, do you think we should also manage the lands outside?"
Zhu Han understood when he heard Zhu Yuanzhang ask this.
After traveling together with my elder brother, my ambitions became bigger and I no longer looked down on such a small territory as the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Han looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and asked, "Brother, what do you want to do?"
"I want Biao'er to continue to supervise the country and consolidate the local foundation. Biao'er has done a good job, and it is now in the development stage. The details require a collective effort, rather than a single-minded development. Biao'er is more suitable than me."
Zhu Yuanzhang's thorough analysis also benefited from the development of various provinces he saw in the Ming Dynasty: "But other places are basically developing barbarically. It is not a good thing to squeeze the people with high intensity. Moreover, overseas
The enclave is basically made up of sergeants from the Ming Dynasty. Their management is too rough and Biao'er's temperament is too soft, so I guess they can't handle it well."
Zhu Han nodded: "Yes, that's right."
Obviously, Zhu Yuanzhang no longer thinks about how to develop in the three or five years in front of him, but thinks about the next five years.
Nowadays, the land conquered by the Ming Dynasty can be stabilized in three to five years. Coupled with the cultural export and material help, the people there will definitely be of one mind and heart with the Ming Dynasty. By then, they can no longer let the military generals.
The local area is under rough management.
With the development of business and culture, conflicts with military commanders will inevitably arise.
So, Zhu Yuanzhang can't wait to get started on what to do next.
Zhu Han was very happy to see Zhu Yuanzhang's proposal. Like Zhu Yuanzhang, he wanted to incorporate overseas enclaves into the Ming Dynasty's territory, so that management would be more convenient.
】
But Zhu Han felt that there was no need to rush this matter, and it was not too late to prepare for two or three years before doing it. But now that Zhu Yuanzhang asked directly, it was obvious that he couldn't wait any longer.
In this case, Zhu Han also expressed his plan: "Brother, the Ming Dynasty is the Ming Dynasty of the world, the Ming Dynasty of the world, not the local Ming Dynasty, so I suggest changing the name of the local Ming Dynasty."
Change the country code?
Zhu Yuanzhang listened to Zhu Han's meaning, and it seemed that he had changed it, but it seemed that he had not changed it. He was ready to wait a moment and listen to Zhu Han's meaning: "The Ming Dynasty belongs to Yan and Huang... We are the descendants of Yan and Huang. In "Shang Shu·Zhou Shu·Wucheng"
There is a saying in "Chinese barbarians who will not lead others". We can define the mainland of Ming Dynasty as the Huaxia Kingdom, and those who go out from the Huaxia Kingdom and have Chinese blood in their bodies are all descendants of Yan and Huang."
China?
Zhu Yuanzhang sounded very interesting: "This name is good! The descendants of Yan and Huang are also very good. As a result, their sense of belonging to China is getting stronger and stronger."
Then, Zhu Yuanzhang asked again: "Since it is the Huaxia Kingdom, what about the Ming Dynasty? Does it rule all the territories?"
"It's natural."
Zhu Han nodded and said to Zhu Yuanzhang: "The Ming Dynasty is the Ming Dynasty of the world. Wouldn't it be better for me to be the co-owner of the world?"
"Uh...then, what should the emperor do?"
Zhu Yuanzhang thought of a paradox. There can only be one emperor in the world. This is a unique title. He asked Zhu Han: "The Ming Dynasty is the common ruler of the world, but does every place have to have an emperor?"
"The emperor belongs to the Ming royal family, so how can there be a second emperor in the world? How is that different from rebellion?"
Zhu Han did not agree with the emperor's name in various places. He did not agree with this. There can only be one emperor in the world, and that is Zhu Yuanzhang: "Brother, why do we have our own emperors in every country? Isn't the chief minister of the cabinet not the same?
Same?"
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Can't you be crowned king?"
The world is so big. After establishing countries in various regions, wouldn't it be good to break up the soil and seal the king?
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't have many other things, but he had many sons. He really couldn't afford to have a few more!
Zhu Yuanzhang, who went out for a tour, showed stronger ambitions at this time. He felt that he could still live.
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know the future, but Zhu Han did.
As for his descendants, each one is more dedicated than the last, and each one is more playful than the last, but they just don't like having children, which is really fucked up.
"This...may not be realistic."
Zhu Han scratched his head and said to Zhu Yuanzhang: "It's still a long time anyway, and we can't tell what the future will be like. It's better not to set up a king now, and we will discuss it when the time comes."
"That's all we can do."
Zhu Yuanzhang heard it. Zhu Han didn't want him to be crowned king so early. As for Zhu Han's worries, Zhu Yuanzhang also understood that if any ignorant king broke a country into pieces, it would be difficult to govern it again.
It is better to settle down first and then make a decision after the gradual governance in various places produces results.
Only Zhu Han dared to say that he was unwilling to be crowned king in front of Zhu Yuanzhang. If it were any other person, Zhu Yuanzhang would think that the person who said such things had ulterior motives.
