Zhu Laosi and Dao Yan were not surprised by the sudden arrival of the Immortal Master and Taizu.
Because in the first class class, the immortal master had already announced that he would go with Taizu to inspect the implementation of policies in various time and space.
"Um."
After appearing, Lao Zhu nodded, and then sat down where Zhu Laosi was sitting just now. He took the tea on the table, poured himself a cup, and drank it all in one gulp. Although the hot pot box was delicious, it was It's true that I'm a little thirsty.
"Master Immortal, please sit down."
Dad grabbed his seat, so Zhu Laosi naturally didn't dare to fart, so he quickly asked Ji Boying to take a seat opposite Lao Zhu.
"No, let's stand up."
Ji Boying frowned slightly.
'You shouldn't eat this bullshit hot pot box from Hedi Lao. '
When autumn comes, September 8th, my chrysanthemums bloom and the blood is like flowers.
Standing by the window, Ji Boying clasped his hands behind his back, assuming a pose that looked like an immortal master.
If he didn't sit down, Zhu Laosi and Dao Yan naturally didn't dare to sit down, so they could only stand aside respectfully.
"Back to Master Immortal, Master Dao Yan and I have indeed found some problems, but we have no good solutions."
"Please ask the immortal master to give me the magic."
Zhu Laosi's eyes were full of expectation.
The problem he mentioned was naturally how to solve the conflicts between the southern gentry and the north and the south.
Dao Yan took a deep breath and his ears immediately stood up to avoid missing any word.
"Let me ask you."
"You said that the southern gentry is restricting you, what is the core point of this restriction?"
Ji Boying glanced at Zhu Laosi and then at Dao Yan.
From Ji Boying's point of view, it would be understandable if Zhu Laosi could not think of this, but Dao Yan could not think of it either, which was a bit abnormal and inconsistent with the title of prime minister in black.
After all, there are specialties in the arts, and Dao Yan is obviously better at formulating strategies than Zhu Laosi.
When this old monk gave Zhu Laosi a white hat in the temple, his skill in painting cakes was top-notch. However, now that the rebellion has been successful, his eating skills have declined.
"this…"
Zhu Laosi was stunned. He had never thought about it so carefully.
"The constraints imposed on you by these gentry do not come from the decision-making level, but from the ruling level."
"The edicts from above are ineffective at the bottom."
"Equally, it's all in vain."
"So, the problem you have to solve is how to make these gentry, who hold a large amount of national resources in their hands, willing to be loyal to you and implement the new policy you formulated into every corner of the empire."
After Ji Boying spoke, Zhu Laosi took another deep breath.
In fact, he has always been vaguely aware of the existence of this problem, but it is difficult to express this problem in detail.
But when it comes to the immortal master, no matter how vague the problem is, it can be stripped down to its cocoon, making it simple and clear in an instant.
Dao Yan next to him also listened with bated breath, ready to wait for the answer from the immortal master.
"Tell me what you two originally thought about this issue."
Ji Boying glanced at Zhu Laosi and Dao Yan. These two people worked together every day. It was impossible that they didn't have some ideas on this issue. He just wanted to see if Zhu Laosi had made any progress.
Zhu Laosi and Dao Yan were both stunned, why did they ask again.
Lao Zhu, who was sitting drinking tea, glanced at Zhu Laosi.
"Fourth, don't you have the answer?"
Zhu Laosi's heart pounded. He waved his hand quickly.
"Go back to my father, I have some."
"Master, you have always said that you have no chance to talk to the immortal master. In this case, the opportunity to answer this question is given to you."
Dao Yan was stunned and glanced at Zhu Laosi.
'? ? ? '
"Zhu Si, don't bring such a trick to the monk!" Buddha knows this and will definitely punish you! '
Taking a deep breath, with the help of billions of brain cells exploding rapidly, the black-clothed monk finally spoke.
"Immortal Master, I have indeed discussed the issue of the southern gentry with His Highness many times. In the end, I feel that the following are the most appropriate ones."
"First, strictly implement the examination system for the southern gentry. Those whose completion rate is too low will not only be dismissed from their posts, but even worse, they will be imprisoned for questioning."
"Second, on the basis of the original reformed official salaries, further improve the salaries of the southern gentry."
"Third, promote some representatives of the southern gentry to official positions, and even serve in the cabinet to set an example."
First give him a slap, then give him a date, and finally draw a big cake.
A common PUA method used by later generations of capitalists.
I have to say that what Monk Dao Yan said is very effective in most cases.
"Yes, the master is right. This is what we think and plan to implement it nearby."
Zhu Laosi spoke repeatedly, looking subconsciously at Lao Zhu who was drinking tea.
This scene is very similar to a teacher's home visit. The teacher is asking questions to the students on the spot, and the father is waiting for the wonderful performance of the big boy.
If you answer correctly, you are a good son; if you answer incorrectly, you are a bastard.
"These methods are good."
"But, as long as Jianwen is alive, all you have done will be in vain."
Ji Boying's words immediately stunned Zhu Laosi and Dao Yan. Even Lao Zhu, who was drinking tea aside, frowned at this moment.
"Brother, do you mean to kill Yunwen?"
Lao Zhu looked at Ji Boying and asked suspiciously.
Although Zhu Yunwen was still very young in Lao Zhu's time and space in the thirteenth year of Hongwu, and Lao Zhu didn't have any deep feelings for Zhu Yunwen, his grandson, after all, he was his own grandson and Biao'er's biological son.
Break the bones and connect the tendons.
There was a killing intent in Zhu Laosi's eyes, and he had no mercy for Zhu Yunwen.
In the original history, Emperor Jianwen's two sons, the eldest son Zhu Wenkui, "unaccounted for", probably physically evaporated.
The second son Zhu Wengui was imprisoned from the age of two to fifty-seven. When he was released by the Baozong, he could not tell the difference between cattle and horses, and died in confusion.
Even Zhu Biao's descendants, Zhu Yunwen's brothers, did not end well.
The third child, Zhu Yunxi, abolished the confinement of common people and died in Fengyang Prison. The fourth child, Zhu Yunxi, had the same fate as Zhu Yunxi, while the fifth child, Zhu Yunzhen, evaporated due to an inexplicable fire at home.
"If Jianwen is killed now, the situation will be out of control."
Dao Yan's sudden words instantly dispelled the killing intent rising in Zhu Laosi's eyes.
In fact, what the black-clothed monk said was correct.
The reason is also very simple.
If Zhu Yunzhen died on the day when Jingnan City was destroyed, then Zhu Di could use all kinds of excuses to create the cause of death, whether he set fire to himself, committed suicide by drinking alcohol, or whatever he wanted.
No matter what the world says, Zhu Laosi refuses to admit that it has anything to do with him, which is a complete confusion.
But if it is after the end of the crisis, it will be now.
Once Jianwen dies inexplicably, all the fingers will be pointed at Zhu Laosi, the regent. Zhu Laosi will be criticized by thousands of people and become a sure-fire regicide to usurp the throne.
This was obviously an extremely uneconomical deal for Zhu Laosi, who only had to supervise the country for three years before he could officially ascend the throne.
Taking a deep breath, Zhu Laosi took a few steps back and bowed deeply to Ji Boying.
"Please ask the immortal master to teach me!"
Ji Boying glanced at Zhu Laosi, paused for a moment, and spoke five words.
"Is your knife dull?"
After saying this, Zhu Laosi, who bowed and saluted, was stunned.
Zhu Laosi subconsciously raised his head and looked at Ji Boying, with some doubts in his eyes. He guessed the meaning of the immortal master's words, but he was not sure.
"What does the Immortal Master mean?"
"Well, that's what you think."
Ji Boying has never thought that this is a problem of the century. If these gentry in the south are disobedient and do not obey the imperial edict, then they will be killed and replaced. Lao Zhu's approach has fully proved that it may not work in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, but In the decades since the founding of the People's Republic of China, using the sword to control the officials was the most convenient and effective way.
In an instant, Mr. Zhu's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
In fact, he has always wanted to kill this group of southern gentry, but he has always been concerned about the impact of Jingnan and has never been able to make up his mind.
"Fourth child."
Lao Zhu, who had been sitting all the time, also stood up at this moment.
Hongwu, Jianwen, and Yongle, the Zhu Di of the three time and space, the age range is very large, one has not yet become a vassal, one has just hard to succeed, and one has already created the prosperous age of Yongle, so the positioning of these three Zhu Di in the eyes of Lao Zhu Also different.
Zhu Di in the Yongle time and space, Lao Zhu would never teach him. After all, the reputation of Emperor Yongle had already been established, and there was nothing to teach.
It is still unknown whether Xiao Zhusi from the Hongwu time and space has a chance to contact the throne. Therefore, Lao Zhu only asked Zhu Biao to take him with him, and did not personally teach the emperor's skills.
But Zhu Laosi of Jianwen Time and Space, although he is only the regent now and seems to be a substitute, there is no doubt that he will be the emperor of tomorrow in the future.
"Father."
Zhu Laosi subconsciously looked at Lao Zhu.
"You have to remember."
Old Zhu walked up to Zhu Laosi and stared into Zhu Laosi's eyes. The founding emperor's domineering power was revealed. Even Zhu Laosi couldn't bear it. Dao Yan next to him took half a step back and bowed slightly. .
"You are the king and they are the ministers."
Just seven words made Zhu Laosi feel more determined.
"My son remembers it."
Mr. Zhu bowed his head with great emphasis.
Taking a deep breath, Zhu Laosi looked at the immortal master again.
"Master Immortal, the student still has a question in his mind."
"Since the end of the Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms, the confrontation between the north and the south has begun. Later, five dynasties divided the land and ruled it, and the Yuan people divided the Han people and the southerners. So far, the division between the north and the south has become very serious until the Ming Dynasty."
"Even though my father was wise and powerful, and implemented many good policies during the Hongwu years, the division between north and south still exists."
"How can we repair this rift?"
After finishing his words, Lao Zhu also frowned.
This is also a problem that Lao Zhu is thinking about. His Hongwu time and space also needs such a solution.
Ji Boying smiled.
Instead, he sat down.
I have an old habit and cannot stand or sit for long periods of time.
Holding nothing in hand, holding the red can of herbal tea, he took a few sips to clear away the gushing fire brought by fishing in the river.
"Everyone sit down."
Ji Boying said something.
Lao Zhu was naturally the first to sit opposite Ji Boying.
Zhu Laosi and Dao Yan also quickly moved a chair from the side and sat obediently on the side, waiting to listen to the teachings from the immortal master.
"There are good and bad strategies for this problem."
"Which one do you want to hear first?"
Ji Boying put down the red can of herbal tea in his hand and conjured up a black thumb-sized pill in his hand. He threw the pill into his mouth and swallowed it with the herbal tea.
'The elixir looks like this...'
Lao Zhu, Zhu Laosi and Dao Yan all stared at the black pill in Ji Boying's hand, with a bit of burning desire in their eyes. They also wanted to have a taste.
This thing is called Diyu Huaijiao Pill, which has the effect of dispersing wind and cooling blood, purging heat and moisturizing dryness.
"Brother, let's talk about what to do first."
In Lao Zhu's opinion, it is a better choice to listen from simple to difficult. Otherwise, he feels that he may not understand it if he goes to high difficulty from the beginning.
'I should have put the label on if I had known earlier. '
Ji Boying glanced at the three of them.
"The last resort is to do nothing."
As soon as these words came out, the three of them were stunned and couldn't help but have questions in their hearts.
'do nothing? Wouldn’t that be more divisive? '
The thinking of the three of them is still stuck in contemporary time. There is nothing they can do about it. The limitations of their vision are not so easy to open up and require long-term cultivation.
"With the development speed of Hongwu and Yongle time and space, with the arrival of the Silver Age and the accelerated pace of expansion of Tomorrow Never Sets, coupled with a series of internal affairs reforms, the national strength will increase exponentially in the short term."
"In this process of increasing national strength, the southern coastal provinces are certainly the first beneficiary group, but the north can also be improved, and with the establishment of the Ming Dynasty Royal Tiangong Institute, after some transportation vehicles have a production base, the entire The country’s transportation system will also improve.”
"Of course, you don't need to understand the word transportation for now. I will explain it in the next class."
"You can roughly understand that the flow of people in the country will become freer with the liberation of productivity and the development of Tiangongyuan, and the interactions between people from the north and the south will become more frequent. If this continues for thirty to fifty years, the rift between the north and the south will naturally It’s a lot of integration.”
"Of course, this cannot completely bridge the gap, but it is definitely within the range that a country can bear."
Lao Zhu's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.
When he founded the country, he severely restricted personnel.
Knowing the existence of the Ding Fa and Li Jia systems, the people at the bottom of the Ming Dynasty could not travel beyond a hundred miles in their entire lives. They had to be guided wherever they went. Many people never even entered the city until their death.
Lao Zhu could even imagine that when the future immortal master talks about the issue of transportation in class, he will inevitably bring out his ancestral system and execute him in public...
"Master Immortal, what's the best strategy?"
Zhu Laosi asked anxiously.
If the problem can be solved once and for all, he certainly wants to solve it once and for all.
"Um."
Ji Boying glanced at the three people.
"The next step is the best solution."
But at this moment, his brows suddenly frowned.
……………………
Jiajing time and space.
Late at night, with the clear moon hanging high in the sky, the gentle breeze blew through the treetops, making rustling sounds.
The West Garden of the Forbidden City is a continuous collection of towering Taoist buildings.
At this time, in the main hall of Taigaoxuan Hall, on top of the original Sanqing, there is another statue enshrined. Looking at its elegant posture, one hand is behind the back, and the other hand is holding a ruler, which is one size smaller than the one on the next floor. The Sanqing statue looks out of place.
At this time, from this hall, there was a string of 'talisman' sounds that no normal person could understand.
After the end of this spell.
"Urgent like a law, edict!"
"My decree! My decree! My decree!"
"………………"
Then came big gasps for air.
Immortal Jiajing wiped the sweat from his forehead, supported his waist, and stared at the clear water in the large golden basin with a radius of half a foot in front of him, with a few pieces of yellow paper with talismans floating on the water.
He is practicing hard: Immortal Technique: The Technique of Making Fire in a Large Water Basin.
However, judging from the current training results, Jiajing Immortal has obviously encountered a bottleneck that is difficult to overcome.
"There must be something wrong with me."
"It must be that you don't understand the spell well enough."
Immortal Jiajing himself usually likes to pass notes to the ministers below and play Morse code.
I have quite a lot of experience in decrypting this matter.
He took out the rice paper he had taken in class from his sleeve. It read "H2O+C→H2+CO" on it, and he pondered.
“From this perspective of understanding, try again.”
Taking a deep breath, Jiajing closed his eyes again, pinched his fingers with his hands, stepped on the Tiangang footwork, and recited his own incantation.
Suddenly, he felt a warmth.
Immortal Jiajing's face instantly showed a look of joy.
'It really worked! Guopan is right to understand Master from this perspective! '
Without opening his eyes, Immortal Jiajing repeated the spell he created over and over again.
He felt the heat around him becoming more and more obvious, and even the Jiajing Immortal could feel the scorching heat of the flames.
Feeling the steaming heat wave, Jiajing could no longer contain his excitement.
'I'm going to do it, I'm going to do it! '
The sound of the talisman in the Jiajing Immortal's mouth suddenly stopped, he shouted loudly, and pointed his finger towards the golden water basin.
"The Heavenly Lord Xuanqing teaches you, and my disciple Zhu Houcong respectfully invites the Immortal Dharma to come to you! You are as urgent as the law!"
"Imperative! Come fire!!"
Huh...~!
The sound of fire and wind floats.
Jiajing suddenly opened his eyes, and what came into his eyes was the raging fire.
The entire Taigaoxuan Hall, the front door and the back hall, were all on fire.
"My Emperor, it's done!!!"
