Upon closer inspection, Chen De was the only one who acted recklessly.
So, there are so many officials, all of whom are higher than Chen De in terms of rank, but they can't control him? !
In particular, it is a bit unreasonable that Wang Guangyang, the inspector-general and a former Prime Minister of Zuo, could not even control the chief of the guard station.
It feels like a group of tigers silently watching the monkeys dominate.
The three adults were lying on the ground with red faces: "I am ashamed."
"Your Highness has taught you the right lesson."
There were sounds of crying and shouting outside. It was probably because the people saw that Chen De was gone that they dared to speak out.
They didn't know what kind of big shot was sitting inside, so long as they could bring down Chen De.
“I beg the adults to make decisions for the people.”
"Master Qingtian, we have been bullied so hard."
Zhu Bai said to Daotong: "Sir, go out and appease the people."
Daotong raised his head and looked at Zhu Bai, a little surprised: "This time it is all up to His Highness, His Highness should take the initiative."
According to common sense, this is a good opportunity to win over the people.
Shouldn't Zhu Bai be fighting to show his face?
Zhu Bai smiled and replied: "I don't need it. If you insist on saying it, just say that His Royal Highness is the one who upholds justice. Anyway, the people can't see clearly who is inside."
Dao Tong saluted Zhu Bai: "Your Highness is really noble and honorable. He doesn't fight or grab. I admire him."
Zhu Bai nodded slightly.
Daotong went out.
It suddenly became quiet outside.
Zhu Bai asked someone to close the door of Guanya Bureau, walked to the backyard, and sat down on the chair brought by Fugui: "Everyone, please get up and sit down."
The chief envoys, envoys and prefects of Guangzhou did not dare to move.
Zhu Bai: "Don't worry, I have finished all the troubles I should have caused. I have other things to do now."
Only then did the adults dare to get up and sit down.
Zhu Bai said: "Thank you, sir, for accompanying me in the play. If you have any difficulties in running official schools and imperial examinations, just ask them."
The chief envoy Zuo said hurriedly: "There are not many people who sign up for the official school."
Zhu Bai asked: "What's the reason?"
Chief Envoy Zuo: "I can't preach because I don't understand the language."
Zhu Bai suddenly realized. Compared with Fujian, which has a tradition of imperial examinations and enthusiasm for being an official, Guangdong people are less cold-blooded.
Because Guangdong has been a place of exile since ancient times, many people came from the north and few went to the north.
Even if I want to go out, I will go overseas to do business in Southeast Asia.
In addition, Cantonese is spoken in Guangdong, and the official dialect of Ming Dynasty is Wu Nong Ruan dialect, which is completely from two language families, and it is very difficult to learn.
When academic officials go to publicize it, it is simply talking about chickens and ducks, and they have nothing to do with each other.
Even if he is recruited, the master will teach in Mandarin and the students will not understand.
Zhu Bai asked a little funny: "How many students have you recruited now?"
Chief Secretary on the Right: "Nanhai County has only recruited ten. Panyu County has even fewer."
Zhu Bai thought for a while: "Otherwise, don't rush to talk about the imperial examination. First, open official courses to teach Mandarin and popularize Mandarin. There is no need to fixate students, whoever wants to come and listen can do it. After three months of popularization, we can start talking about Mandarin." A subset of scriptures. We will count the number of students at that time."
Chief Envoy Zuo: "Your Highness is wise, but in fact, the promotion of Mandarin has been done by ministers with little effect."
Zhu Bai said: "That's because there is no sweetness. Tomorrow, I will start recruiting new people for the second-level and third-level official bureaus, and they must be able to speak Mandarin. In three months, it will also be necessary to trade in the official bureau. Mainly in Mandarin. Don’t they like doing business? Doesn’t this provide motivation?”
The two chief secretaries exchanged glances and replied: "This should have an effect."
Zhu Bai has always been a man of action, doing what he says he wants to do immediately.
In the afternoon, notices were posted at the entrance of the first-level dental bureau and the official school at the same time. One was recruiting dental officers and economics, and the other was recruiting students to learn Mandarin.
People who do business naturally know the benefits of the Guanya Bureau, and there are a huge number of people applying for the Guanya Bureau.
There are very few official schools there.
Nine out of ten of those who applied were rejected because they couldn't speak Mandarin.
Then the number of people signing up for the official school suddenly increased.
Lao Zhu received Zhu Bai's message and immediately issued an imperial edict: eighteen princes were sent to worship Yue Zhenhaidu, among which Zhu Liangzu worshiped Nanhai.
The meaning is obvious, which is to let Zhu Liangzu take over the former Guangdong capital commander and guard Guangdong.
Before Zhu Liangzu set off, Lao Zhu called him into the imperial study and said meaningfully: "Liangzu, Chen De caused a lot of public dissatisfaction in Guangdong, so let's call him back to deal with it. You were the one who pacified Guangdong and Guangxi back then. You have outstanding military achievements. , is also one of the people we trust most. This time, I ask you to guard Guangdong, and you must not disappoint us."
In order to conquer the world and win people's hearts, he turned a blind eye to the various petty problems of these old guys.
Now that the world is at peace, these people are all a little bit overwhelmed by their knighthoods.
Small problems have become big problems.
For example, Zhu Liangzu was also arrogant and domineering in various ways before.
So he had to give Zhu Liangzu a few words in person.
Zhu Liangzu prostrated on the ground and said: "I should train my troops diligently and restrain my subordinates."
Lao Zhu nodded slightly: "That's very good."
Zhu Liangzu set out not long ago.
Traveling day and night, the commander-in-chief of Guangdong City and Chen De, who came at full speed, also arrived at Yingtian.
Lao Zhu asked them to enter the palace, but they didn't see them.
Chen De was frightened now and knelt down outside the Imperial Study Room and kowtowed: "I know I was wrong. I beg the Emperor to forgive me."
Lao Zhu listened to the wailing outside and asked Zhu Biao: "What do you think Biao'er should do?"
Zhu Biao replied: "Although Mr. Chen has done many unjust things, he saved his father. If he kills him, I'm afraid there will be officials who want to make a fuss about it. It's better to remove his official position and let him go home to retire." .”
Lao Zhu nodded slightly: "Well, he has the title of Linjiang Marquis and a fief, so he will not starve or freeze. If we talk about it in the future, we will not treat him badly."
Zhu Biao added: "Although the commander did not restrain Chen De well, it is excusable, so it is better to transfer him to another place and see what happens. If he does not do well again, it will be too late to deal with it."
The main reason is that Lao Zhu emphasized civility and suppressed military force. Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer generals available in the court. It would be a pity to abolish a second-grade general because of this matter.
Lao Zhu said: "But there is a lot of public resentment about this matter. If we don't punish people, I'm afraid it won't be quelled."
Zhu Biao said: "Yes, so we have to teach the domineering households and soldiers a lesson. After all, they are the ones who come forward on weekdays. When the people see that they are punished, they feel comfortable and will not pursue it any further."
Lao Zhu said with a look of relief: "Well, I'll do as you say. Biao'er can now handle court affairs with ease. In a few years, we can retire and enjoy a happy life."
Zhu Biao hurriedly knelt down and said, "My son is here today because of my father's good teachings. My father is in his prime, so don't mention retirement."
This thing is so mysterious.
Lao Zhu wanted Zhu Biao to become independent quickly, but he was also afraid that Zhu Biao would become independent too soon and force him to come down.
So these words are also true and false, false and true.
