Zhu Xuan looked at the description of the memorial.
The reopening of the horse market is going quite smoothly. There are no other troubles for the time being. He can put this worry aside and deal with other government affairs.
Now Zhu Xuan's daily situation is probably like this. When the matter is almost handled, he will send the memorial to Lao Zhu and wait for him to stamp it for confirmation. If he thinks Zhu Xuan has handled it wrong, Lao Zhu will summon additional ministers for discussion.
After a day's work, Zhu Xuan yawned and stretched again from exhaustion.
This kind of high-intensity study work is really not something that ordinary people can bear. Zhu Xuan can't figure out how he endured it for several days in a row. After sending Jie Jin and others away, he didn't even have the strength to go to Qianqing Palace to find the emperor's grandfather. .
However, Zhu Yuanzhang came to the East Palace.
"Grandpa Huang!"
Zhu Xuan saw him and went out to greet him.
Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and said, "Dear grandson, have you worked hard?"
Zhu Xuan rubbed his hands that were a little sore from writing, and said with a smile: "My grandson is almost exhausted. I finally realize how hard Grandpa Huang works, and I admire how Grandpa Huang has survived all these years."
Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled again and said with a smile: "Since you have decided to sit in this position and have supreme power, you must bear some obligations. Since you have received something, you have to give something more. Now, my dear grandson is just the beginning. In the future When we are no longer here, all the burden will fall on your shoulders, and that’s when the real hard work will begin.”
Zhu Xuan said: "Grandpa Huang will not be absent. You will always be here. Don't say unlucky words."
Zhu Yuanzhang took Zhu Xuan's hand, sat down on the soft couch together, and said: "We are still here to protect you from the wind and rain. Although some words are unlucky, they are a fact!"
Zhu Xuan was silent.
I don't want this fact.
Seeing that Zhu Xuan cared so much about him, Zhu Yuanzhang said with satisfaction: "We will try our best to protect our good grandson from wind and rain and remove more stumbling blocks, but our good grandson must remember that despite this, we must not be arrogant, let alone forget our old Zhu. The foundation of the family.”
"My grandson understands."
Zhu Xuan knew that his family, the old Zhu family, came from a poor family.
The more this is the case, the more we should endure hardship and understand the suffering of the people. Only then can we lead the people out of poverty and achieve the word "serving the people".
"My dear grandson is so sensible, so we can rest assured."
Zhu Yuanzhang patted Zhu Xuan on the shoulder and continued: "If there are any memorials that cannot be determined, just send them to us."
The grandfather and grandson chatted for a while, then asked the imperial kitchen to bring dinner, and had a meal together in the East Palace. Only then did Lao Zhu leave. When he walked outside, his body looked a little stooped again.
In front of his children and grandchildren, he must try to stand taller and give them a feeling that he can stand up for them.
But out of the sight of his sweet grandson, Zhu Yuanzhang had to admit that he was indeed old and could not even straighten his waist. If Liu Chun had not been helping him regulate his body and maintain his health over the years, he would have been lying in a coffin long ago.
"old!"
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed.
Yun Qi supported him, shook his head and said: "Your Majesty is still walking like a dragon and a tiger, and he is not aged at all."
Zhu Yuanzhang rarely refuted Yun Qi, shook his head and sighed: "No matter how big the steps are, it can't change the nature of our old age, but my good grandson can grow up, and we are not afraid of getting old."
Seeing that there were successors to the Ming Dynasty, he no longer felt so much emotion.
Yunqi supported Zhu Yuanzhang and quickly returned to Qianqing Palace.
Zhu Xuan watched Zhu Yuanzhang leave the East Palace. When he saw Grandpa Huang's figure disappearing in the dim light, he turned back, but looked at the ground nearby and said, "The snow has melted!"
Hou Xian agreed: "Yes! After the New Year, everything revives and the snow begins to melt."
Zhu Xuan looked up at the dark sky, tugged on the clothes on his body, and no longer wore very thick clothes. He said to himself: "The snow has melted, and it is almost ready for spring plowing. I have to prepare for spring plowing and make time tomorrow." Let’s go outside the city and have a look!”
Next, we must encourage spring plowing. As the emperor's grandson, we must set an example and set an example for the world.
Return to the bedroom.
Jingqiu came over carefully and undressed Zhu Xuan.
"Jingqiu, help me massage my shoulders."
Zhu Xuan lay on the couch.
Jing Qiu's pretty face was pink, and she pressed Zhu Xuan's shoulders gently and gently for a while. When he saw that Zhu Xuan made no movement, he lowered his head and saw that he had fallen asleep.
"Your Highness..."
Jingqiu shouted softly, and after getting no response, she secretly thought: "Your Highness, it's too hard!"
She used the gentlest movements possible to change Zhu Xuan's lying posture to lying down, then covered him with the quilt, and stepped aside to wait for service.
Early the next morning.
Zhu Xuan went to court and then went to the main hall to study. In the afternoon, he temporarily put aside the memorial and took Xie Jin and Yang Shiqi out of the palace to the fields outside the city to watch the people's spring plowing.
Liang Fu's punishment was not too serious. He still had the official position of Ying Tianfu Yin. When he got the news that Zhu Xuan was out of the city to inspect the spring plowing, he quickly followed him out and brought many people with him.
"Yingtian Mansion's spring plowing has been done well!"
Zhu Xuan said after looking at it.
Liang Fu lowered his head and said: "They are all Your Highness, and they have good leadership."
Zhu Xuan shook his head and said: "What kind of leader can I have? Just come out and have a look, and you will say that I am a good leader. Sometimes you shouldn't flatter me like this!"
Liang Fu immediately apologized and said respectfully: "I said something wrong, please punish me, Your Highness!"
Of course, Zhu Xuan would not punish Liang Fu for such a trivial matter. He walked around the field and asked, "The Science Pavilion should have given you a lot of technical guidance on farming and other matters, right?"
During the inspection, he could see that many people used those fertilizers.
The emergence of chemical fertilizers completely changed the agricultural production method in the Ming Dynasty. Agriculture is the foundation of the country. As long as it is related to food, agriculture cannot be separated. These are very important.
There can be no problems in agriculture.
In the Science Pavilion, the research on agriculture is much more in-depth than before.
"some!"
Xie Jin nodded and said: "A long time ago, His Majesty ordered that the agricultural technology in the Science Pavilion should be used among the people as much as possible."
Although there is no shortage of food in the Ming Dynasty and there are more productive crops, potatoes and sweet potatoes are the staple food, but the importance of agriculture by the imperial court has never been reduced. What was before is still the same now.
Zhu Xuan said: "Science Pavilion is doing better and better."
When the Science Pavilion was established, Zhu Xuan never imagined that it would develop so fast.
Yang Shiqi said: "His Royal Highness is far-sighted and named after the word science. He devoted himself to studying science to change the Ming Dynasty a long time ago. This is a great good deed!"
Zhu Xuan said: "You don't need to flatter me too much. Get ready to go back to the palace! I still have a lot of things to deal with. By the way, are there any more important things recently?"
Xie Jin said: "One thing, according to the agenda given by His Majesty at the beginning, His Royal Highness King Wei can almost become a vassal."
King Wei is Zhu Yunxi.
Last year, he took the initiative to apply for the annexation of Pyongyang. In a few days, the Lantern Festival will be held. After the Lantern Festival, Zhu Yunxi will go to annex Pyongyang.
