Some people sneered: This young prince thinks too ideally.
Even if the imperial examination continues, it will only come once every three years.
In other words, at most half of the three years, the "Juren Inn" is fully occupied.
It is empty at other times.
Those along the way are even more so.
But even if no one lives in them, these houses still need maintenance and management.
In order to offset the maintenance costs during the off-season, housing prices have to be increased.
When housing prices rise, people will not come to live there.
Then it becomes a vicious cycle.
Just wait and see.
When people leave Yingtian in April or May next year, it will be time for Zhu Bai to cry.
-----
Most of the candidates were fine, but they were busy studying behind closed doors.
Some were arrogant and felt that they did not need to review, so they gathered in the atrium below to recite poems and compose poems all day long, discuss national affairs, and even quarrel with each other if they had different political opinions.
The noise lasted until midnight, making it impossible for the neighbors to sleep peacefully.
Early in the morning, Zhu Bai asked someone to write down the ten rules for staying at the Juren Inn. They were written in eye-catching black characters as big as a fist and posted in the lobby.
Article 1: Those who stay out at night, gamble or visit prostitutes will be kicked out, put on a blacklist, and will never be entertained.
Article 2: Those who cause troubles, fights, steal and defraud will be sent to the government office, blacklisted, and will never be welcomed.
…
Now he found that these young people were too angry, and if they kept making trouble like this, sooner or later Lao Zhu couldn't stand it and started arresting people.
So he quickly added one after the rules: "Those who do not review properly, discuss government affairs arbitrarily, and gather in crowds to make noise after the end of the Youshi period will be sent to the government office and blacklisted, and will never be received."
The bunch of people who raised talents stopped.
Zhu Bai secretly muttered: Let’s talk about the romance, how wonderful the travel and food are. You don't have that vision and height, but you want to talk about politics, which is difficult for me as the poster.
This year was also the first year for the three older princes to join the feudal clan.
The three vassal kings each wrote a memorial to Lao Zhu to report on the situation of the year.
The three eminent monks who followed the prince to join the feudal clan also wrote separate memorials to Lao Zhu.
After reading the six memorials carefully, Lao Zhuzi let Zhu Biao read them.
Although Zhu Biao didn't say anything, he had always been worried about this enfeoffment.
Lao Zhu asked Zhu Biao to read this memorial to let him know what his younger brother was doing in the vassal country, so that he could rest assured.
Zhu Biao read it carefully and said, "Thank you three brothers for your hard work."
Lao Zhu nodded and said, "We will write a reply to them. As the eldest brother, you can also write a letter to encourage and encourage them."
Then Lao Zhu handed the letter to Zhu Bai: "You also learn from your brothers how to govern the vassal state and write official documents. In a few years you will go to Changsha, and there will be no one to help you do these things."
Zhu Bai chuckled: "Father, you don't have to worry about me. I plan to focus on 'playing' after arriving in Changsha and do nothing else, so I don't need to read it."
Lao Zhu's face sank: "You should read well if I tell you to. Don't force us to punish you by copying books."
Zhu Bai could only reluctantly accept the six memorials.
Of the three princes, Zhu Di was obviously the most attentive and diligent, and his report was also the most organized, both civil and military, and detailed and comprehensive.
Zhu Di also thanked the Guanya Bureau for its help in the memorial. In fact, I am thanking Zhu Bai. Then he expressed his longing for Lao Zhu, Queen Ma and all the brothers in the most touching and sincere words.
The whole article is full of useful information, not a single word of nonsense.
Zhu Bai sighed: Emperor Yongle was indeed born to be an emperor. Even if he was thrown to the remote north, his brilliance could not be covered up.
Although Dao Yan is ugly, his literary talent and calligraphy are indeed outstanding.
Moreover, he is also the most strategic and ambitious among the three monks.
Compared with Zhu Di's pragmatism, the words of his memorial were more gorgeous.
It can be seen that this article is the result of repeated consideration and revision and rewriting several times.
Probably he wanted to praise Zhu Di, but was afraid of overdoing it. Moreover, Zhu Di didn't like to just pile up rhetorical eulogies, so he thought hard and considered it over and over again.
Lao Zhu and Zhu Biao just stayed the longest at the memorials of Zhu Di and Dao Yan.
Zhu Fang emphasizes martial arts over prose, and the whole article is about one thing: "fighting."
At first glance, it seems that he rarely interferes with government affairs and only cares about his own happiness every day.
Hongyuan's words about Zhu Xi's affairs were unclear and vague. If he was not careless and perfunctory, he couldn't tell the truth.
Judging from Zhu Bai's understanding of Hongyuan, it was probably the latter.
Zhu Fan obviously took the official documents from the vassal area, looked through them, and compiled them into an article to deal with Lao Zhu.
On the surface, everything has been said, but everything is only scratching the surface.
The memorial of the monk Zhiming who followed him was similar to Hong Yuan's.
Combined with what Xie Cheng said to him before, Zhu Bai guessed that Zhi Ming was probably dissatisfied with Zhu Fan's behavior but couldn't say it directly.
Lao Zhu looked at Zhu Bai very seriously. He waited patiently for him to finish reading, then asked him sideways: "Tell me. What problems did you see in the memorials of the three brothers and the master?"
Of course, Zhu Bai would not be stupid enough to tell the truth, so he grinned: "Seeing what my brothers have said, I think it is quite interesting to be the vassal king."
Duzi, you only think about having fun all day long.
We don't believe you really can't figure it out.
Lao Zhu was so angry that he secretly gritted his teeth, touched his chin, and said, "After much thought, we'd better let you go to Jingzhou. You'll be too comfortable in Changsha."
Zhu Bai's eyes lit up: "Jingzhou is great."
Lao Zhu narrowed his eyes: "Haha, you think I don't know what your plans are. If you go to Jingzhou, there won't even be anyone to restrain you. No, you should go to Changsha."
Zhu Bai had a depressed look on his face: "Tsk, didn't you say that the emperor kept his word? How could my father be like this? One moment in Changsha, another in Jingzhou."
In fact, it would definitely be best for him to go to Changsha. Isn't his grandfather's territory his home court?
Besides, he recalled carefully later that in history, the Xiang King vassal state was originally in Jingzhou, and it was also in Jingzhou that he was burned to death.
If he changes like this, won't he reduce the chance of turning himself into a roast chicken?
Lao Zhu suddenly asked: "I heard that you have a woman in the backyard of Guanya Bureau?"
Rumors are terrible...
Who the hell is talking nonsense into Lao Zhu’s ears?
Is that what I call raising a woman?
That's called rescuing street children.
Besides, it wasn’t me who took the initiative to help, it was someone else who borrowed my place to help.
Zhu Bai's heart was racing, and he pretended to have an innocent expression on his face: "Father, what does it mean to raise a woman? I don't understand. However, she helps him work and get paid."
Lao Zhu snorted: "I guess you still don't understand. I'm just afraid that you will be taken advantage of."
Zhu Bai looked confused: "Ang?!"
Lao Zhu added: "You are our son. From now on, the princess will definitely come from a family of generals and prime ministers. For a woman of unknown origin, even if she is to be a concubine, you have to consider whether she is qualified."
Zhu Bai frowned: "It's so complicated, my head is buzzing just thinking about it. Why do you need so many women?"
Lao Zhu was amused: "Well, you are still young and don't understand. Why does your fifth brother always come to your place recently?! Did you do something strange to ask him to work for you?"
