As a doctor, Yan Shiqing actually knew Chu Xixuan's physical condition better than anyone else. She didn't even ask about what Chu Ximo said.
"Then Huaijin, does the emperor want to take him with him?"
"The emperor hopes that after enlightenment, he can stay with him. Of course, it's not that he won't be allowed to return to Prince Mo's Mansion. He just hopes to spend more time with him. Living in the palace is also convenient for the tutor's teaching. By the way, this tutor
As the candidate, the emperor’s brother chose his uncle Jiang Yunjing.” yyls
Yan Shiqing understood that Chu Xixuan could not have children due to his health, but when he thought of the heavy burden placed on his son as the future prince at such a young age, he couldn't help but feel a little distressed.
She knew that all the royal sons began formal enlightenment at the age of three, which meant that Xiao Nian'an would have to enter the palace after June next year.
It was just that she and Ah Mo were afraid of being in the Hongwu Kingdom at that time, and she didn't want Xiao Nian An to have to endure those things at such a young age, and never have the childhood she deserved.
"Ah Mo, when you return to Beijing, you can see if you can ask the emperor to take Huai Jin to the palace a few years later. At the age of seven, can it be done after the age of seven?"
When Chu Ximo heard that he was seven years old, he frowned, a little confused: "Since ancient times, the sons of the royal family have been initiated by the Taifu or the bachelor at the age of two or three. If you are seven years old, it will be a little difficult. With the emperor's brother and those
If the court officials tell me carefully, it might still be possible at the age of five!"
Yan Shiqing also knew that she was in a dilemma, so she expressed her plan: "I want to take Huaijin around when he is still young. In case he enters the palace in the future, I will not think about my relationship with him."
I'm afraid I won't have time to get along with him. Besides, he is young now, and I don't want him to have a childhood. Because he is a prince, he has to learn a lot, and he will be overwhelmed in the end."
Even though Chu Ximo is not a prince, he has learned a lot since he was a child. In addition, his imperial brother has learned more than him, so he also sees it.
If it were his own son, he would indeed feel a little distressed if it was like that. What's more, he has always been in debt to this son and has not been able to get along well with him.
He was only seven years old and it was really difficult to do it. Even if his brother was willing, he was afraid that the courtiers would not agree.
Yan Shiqing also knew that she was in trouble, but she had her own ideas, so she said: "Ah Mo, after the new year I want to go to Hongwu Country, not only for Yang Lulan's sake, but also for my master.
When the time comes, I will take Huai Jin with me. This trip, plus the delay, will take a whole year. When I come back, it will be almost time to get married, but Huai Jin will be less than four years old at that time.
"
As she spoke, when she saw Chu Ximo was about to speak again, she reached out and covered his mouth, and said seriously: "Don't speak for now. Listen to me carefully. Maybe I can't teach Huai Jin his knowledge, but I can teach him."
He conducts himself well. As for the mere enlightenment, I believe it is totally fine for you to teach him."
Chu Ximo pulled her down and said, "In that case, isn't five years old just right?"
Yan Shiqing shook her head and said: "Not enough! I want to take Huaijin to the Frankish Kingdom and see the world beyond the sea. Since he has been determined to be the crown prince, he has broadened his horizons and gained knowledge at a young age.
No matter what the country is, it will be good for him and the future Dachu. I can’t say that the other side of the sea is definitely better than my Dachu, but there are always things that we don’t understand and can’t do. It’s just like Campbell led the
You should know about the glass technology we came from. We can learn from each other's strengths and offset our weaknesses, so that our country, Chu, can be more prosperous."
"Then there is no need for us to go there in person. We can send people to follow us. When the countess left, wasn't there someone from Rongcheng who followed her?"
Yan Shiqing shook her head again: "Some things need to be seen with one's own eyes and experienced firsthand. They say that reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles, and traveling thousands of miles is not as good as reading countless people. Reading countless people is not as good as the guidance of famous teachers.
The road, famous teachers show the way, it is better to realize it yourself. Ah Mo, Huai Jin can see it since he was a child. He is very smart and has high understanding. Due to his status, there will be famous teachers to show the way, and there are thousands of books for him to read.
But once he confirms his identity as the crown prince and enters the palace, how can he be as free as he is now? No matter what others say or think, he will travel thousands of miles and meet countless people. As a mother, I will help him do it.
Only by going out and seeing more can people broaden their horizons and state of mind, and avoid being complacent."
When Yan Shiqing said this, she paused, raised her head, sat up straight, looked at Chu Ximo, and said seriously: "To be honest, when the late emperor was in power, he was unable to defeat the Hongwu Kingdom due to his ambition. After the defeat, he closed the country in seclusion and made
The people of my country are becoming more and more miserable, and they blame Ding Beirui, who was defeated in the battle and whose whereabouts are unknown. But he never thought about why it happened like this. He had finally gotten better in the past few years, and he thought that with weapons, he would be invincible.
He can do whatever he wants. But he has never seen what the outside world is like. If we continue to fight, how will the people live their lives? Because of drought and low production, what the people grow is not only to pay taxes, but also to fill their stomachs.
The problem is, life is very difficult. Once there is a war, how can we keep up with the food and grass, not to mention the conscription? In the end, the food rations are not taken from the people's mouths? The people themselves have no enough stomachs to fill, and herbs are scarce, and they have to stay close to the front line.
, even if they are sick, there may not be any medicine to cure them, this is obviously to force them to death!"
Chu Ximo also knew what his father was like, but he just had the right to not say anything about his father's faults, not to mention that his father's people were already dead. Every time he saw the hardships of the people, especially the people of Tuofeng Town and Antelope City, he felt
After walking through those places, he secretly told himself that it was during his father's reign, and he couldn't help himself, and he didn't know that these places had become like this.
All said and done, it was all because of the treacherous ministers who brought harm to the country.
But now what Yan Shiqing said forced him to face these problems head-on, and he was not allowed to escape.
Yan Shiqing knew that what she said was a bit exaggerated, so she sighed and gave an example: "Although Emperor Dexuan of the Hongwu Kingdom loved money very much, he knew that he could not communicate with our country, Chu, so he tried to find ways to develop maritime transportation and establish relationships with overseas countries.
Before I sold soap, they sold soap in the capital. Although Hongwu Kingdom suffered from floods every year and the people's lives were not suitable, there were really not many casualties. The lives of the people were worse than mine.
It's much better for them. If we, Dachu, had communicated with them without fighting at the beginning, why would we be like this now? Ah Mo, think about it, Ningshou Prefecture, which has solved the flood, and Huaizhou, which has solved the drought, are now in the same situation.
Jiangzhou, let’s see what it was like before? Even though both places are considered wealthy, how does it compare with now?”
After hearing what she said, Chu Ximo felt that what she said made sense, so he reached out and knocked her on the forehead, then lowered his head and kissed her again and said: "After I get back, I will discuss this matter with the emperor."
Tell me, uncle, I can't guarantee whether it will go as you wish!"
