"My daughter-in-law respectfully invites my father..."
"Don't kneel, don't kneel, Yuying, you have to be careful! Quickly, bring her a chair! Yuying, sit down quickly!"
On the deck of a dragon boat sailing on the Jingjiang River, Zhu Cixiang greeted his daughter-in-law Ding Yuying to take a seat with a cheerful smile. Zhu Cixiang fell more and more in love with Ding Yuying, his daughter-in-law.
Although this Ding Yuying is a top student, she is definitely not a nerd. Not only does she have a high IQ, but she also has a very high emotional intelligence, and her belly is also up to par - after sleeping with Zhu Hexing for a month and 20 days, she had already been diagnosed with Ximai and became pregnant. Dragon species.
After becoming pregnant, Ding Yuying still did not dare to slack off. Not only did she "go out with her pregnancy" and follow Zhu Cixiang's personal expedition westward, but she also continued to work hard.
Every day during the day, she would go to Emperor Zhu's boat to say hello first (and also say hello to the prince. The prince and Zhu Cixiang were not on the same boat, and they could not get on Zhu Cixiang's boat), and then make up lessons - Princess Nisha and Xu Erlin would give her and Wu Ahuan attends class. Zhu Cixiang sometimes personally gave financial lessons to his two pregnant daughters-in-law (Wu Ahuan also had one), and taught them some tips on governing the country.
After studying at Zhu Cixiang's place, she had to return to the prince's warship to accompany him, and she had to continue to serve him in the evening - Zhu Hexing was at an energetic age and was bored on the boat all day long with nowhere to vent, so she only Ding Yuying can be made to work harder.
Ding Yuying is really amazing. She studies during the day and has to deal with the prince at night. She still has a child in her belly. After more than ten days, she doesn't show any signs of fatigue.
And she didn't fall behind in her studies. She took a test yesterday and got high scores in all subjects... She is a superwoman!
Zhu Cixiang saw his daughter-in-law sitting elegantly on the chair, and took a stack of papers from Princess Nesa, then handed it to Ding Yuying, and said with a smile: "Yuying, you did well in the exam... Confucianism Full marks, 90 points for French, 95 points for financial management, 95 points for accounting, full marks for tax law, and 85 points for military studies, very good!”
Ding Yuying felt relieved... She knew that if she failed in the exam, she might be buried in glory!
The exam is really risky, so you must be serious when doing the questions!
If future generations of academic scumbags have her motivation to learn, we can’t say that they will definitely get into a good university after the resumption of diplomatic relations between Beijing and Qing Dynasty!
Of course... there is a certain chance that it will drive you crazy!
However, Ding Yuying's ability to withstand pressure is pretty good and she doesn't look crazy yet. Being strong enough is also a kind of ability! If she goes crazy, she will be buried in glory, so she doesn't dare to go crazy!
Zhu Cixiang added: "There are no classes for you this morning. Ministers will come to discuss politics later. You will listen along and be responsible for taking notes."
"Ah?" Ding Yuying was shocked by Zhu Cixiang's words, "Father, please let your daughter-in-law..."
"You have to start learning how to govern the country!" Zhu Cixiang said with a smile, "You are the Crown Princess. There will always be a time in the future when you will supervise the country as regent (the queen will supervise the country when the emperor goes on an expedition), so you can start learning now."
What? Ding Yuying was also a little speechless, the prince didn't even start to learn! She, the princess, learned it first... What's going on? If you die one day, who will govern the country?
Zhu Cixiang glanced at her: "After you have recorded what you have written down, let Erlin make a copy later. You can bring the original copy to the prince to see. If you have any thoughts, please go and talk to the prince."
It turned out that Zhu Cixiang's plan was to teach Ding Yuying how to govern the country himself, and then let Ding Yuying teach Zhu Hexing... He mainly thought that Zhu Hexing was a bit stupid, and he didn't have the patience to teach him a stupid boy, so he might as well teach Comparison first. The smart Ding Yuying asked Ding Yuying to teach Zhu Hexing again. Whose husband is responsible for teaching? Ding Yuying was not forced to be the crown princess. She was the crown princess who worked hard on her own. How could she not be responsible for teaching her?
"My daughter-in-law knows. My daughter-in-law must study hard. If there is anything she doesn't understand, she can ask the prince for advice after she returns." Ding Yuying was really smart and immediately understood what Emperor Zhu meant.
Zhu Cixiang nodded with satisfaction. It was easy to talk to smart people, just a few words. Moreover, this girl has a high emotional intelligence and knows how to save face for the lucky guy... If she can always take care of him like this, this lucky guy will really have good luck!
At this moment, several more small boats docked with Emperor Zhu's ship. They came with Zhu Hehao and Wu Ahuan, the deputy military advisor Wu Guoyong who was accompanying the expedition, Shi Kefa, the Minister of Rites, Zheng Sen, the Minister of Industry, and Hao Hao, the Governor of Huguang. Waving the flag, Admiral Feng San of Huguang, Admiral Tian Yiqing of the First Army and others.
After several people had saluted, they all saw Crown Princess Ding Yuying sitting behind a desk with the Four Treasures of the Study in front of her, as if she was ready to record. Everyone who came was surprised. What was going on? The Hanlin scholar on duty is ill and the princess is asked to take over?
Emperor Zhu smiled and said: "I asked the Crown Princess to be responsible for recording. By the way, I also wanted her to familiarize herself with the government affairs. She can also talk to the Crown Prince when she returns."
The prince and Zhu Cixi cannot ride in the same boat. If the boat capsizes, both father and son will be gone. Who will leave the Ming Dynasty to?
However, letting Ding Yuying be responsible for recording and explaining the government affairs to Zhu Hexing is still an excuse, just to set a precedent for the crown prince to learn the government affairs!
Zhu Cixiang went on to say: "Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there have been many young rulers and few eldest rulers. Including me, there are a total of 11 young lords or young rulers who have come to the court, but there are only 6 eldest rulers, including Taizu and Chengzu. The Lord who takes over the world and brings peace to the world. It can be seen from this that it is very likely that the younger Lord will ascend the throne in the future! In this case, I have to consider who will assist the Young Lord. Since ancient times, the Young Lord has not relied on the Queen Mother to rule. It is to rely on ministers who care about orders to govern. And ministers who care about orders..."
His eyes were burning, scanning over several ministers, making them all tremble - you, the emperor, don't scare people, okay? What are you saying about caring about your life, Minister... You are not going to die yet, why do you care about your life? That's obviously the minister who died!
"What the father said is absolutely true!" Zhu Hehao is the one who understands Emperor Zhu's thoughts best among the princes, and he also needs to train a regent for himself...
Zhu Hehao said: "Since ancient times, ministers who have cared about their orders have often failed to start well and finish well. It is not a good thing for the country or for themselves. It is better to let the Queen Mother hang the curtain!"
When Minister Gu Ming was not appointed, it would definitely be politically correct - it would definitely be better than a woman doing politics! But after becoming one, I'm afraid it will be difficult to take care of one's own wealth and life.
In history, there are too few ministers who can safely hand over power to the young master... In contrast, there are many precedents of power being transferred from the hands of the queen mother to the young master. Moreover, after the Tang Dynasty, only the regent queen mother of Xixia and the monarch had a fierce struggle.
Zhu Cixiang nodded, looked at Shi Kefa and asked: "Shi Gebu, you are an old minister and a hero who has overcome difficulties. I believe in you the most. I ask you, are you willing to be a minister who cares about life?"
"No! Absolutely not willing..." Shi Kefa shook his head like a rattle - how dare he say yes? At his age, it is impossible for him to serve as the Minister of Guan Ming for Zhu Hexing's son. He can only serve as the Minister of Guan Ming for Zhu Cihong's son. If he said yes, wasn't he cursing Zhu Cixi to die early?
Although Zhu Cixiang is saying unlucky words now, he can say these words at will, and there is a danger that others will move their heads if they say it!
"Elder brother, what about you? Are you willing to be the Minister of Life?"
Zheng Sen shook his head quickly: "If you don't want to, I will definitely not be a minister who cares about your life..."
He is the son of the richest man in Ming Dynasty! I still want to live for a few more decades!
Zhu Cixiang looked at the other people and said, "What about you? Who wants to be a minister who cares about life?"
"I don't want to...we will never be a minister who cares about life!"
They are all heroes in overcoming difficulties! No one is a fool! Who dares to be the minister of death?
Zhu Cixiang chuckled: "Since you all are not ministers who care about life, if anything happens, we can only let women be in power... Ah Huan, you and Yuying should also take notes together. They will be indispensable for the United States in the future. When you were supervising the country’s regent!”
