Xie Jin is a talented minister and assistant. Although he is a few years younger than Xia Yuanji and Tie Xuan, as long as he polishes his temper more and smoothes his temper, he will be a minister of the country.
Xia Yuanji will be in charge of the household department in the future, and he will be the person who can prevent the financial system of the Ming Dynasty from collapsing despite the continuous wars in the north and south. And if Zhu Yunxi wants to reform the Ming Dynasty's commercial taxation and economy, he cannot do without such a person to help him. work.
As for Teohuan...
What Zhu Yunxi valued was his loyalty to the Ming Dynasty and his ability to lead troops to defend the city. If possible in the future, I can take charge of the military affairs.
These three people are now Zhu Yunxi's little idea, to save up for himself in advance.
Zhu Yuanzhang was already patting the desk beside him gently, thinking about the three people Zhu Yunxi gave him.
He was satisfied with Xie Jin. If it weren't for the bad temper of the donkey at the entrance of the village, he would have entrusted him with important responsibilities.
He also knew that Xia Yuanji from the Ministry of War and Tie Xuan from the Ministry of Rites were both rare talents among the young officials in the court.
In addition, these three people are only more than ten years older than the emperor's grandson. If they serve as a team member in the future, they can play a supporting role. After all, how old you are, you always have to be more prudent in doing things, and you can take care of the emperor and grandson if they don't act erroneously.
But I still need to think about it carefully.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Yunxi who was full of expectation, raised his hand and hit him on the head with another palm.
Then he reminded me with a reproachful look on his face: "Your father is probably about to leave. As a son, I will go and see you off, and also say a few words for you and me."
Zhu Yunxi bowed his head and asked, "What does grandpa want his grandson to say?"
Zhu Yuanzhang smashed the bar and said: "When I was with you, if he met that bastard like the second brother on the road, he would give me a hard lesson first. The bastard would bring shame to me!"
"this……"
Zhu Yunxi raised his head and hesitated.
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand toward the outside of the palace: "Get out, I know what we mean!"
After scolding, the old man did not give Zhu Yunxi a chance to ask further questions.
He raised his foot and gave him a weak kick.
Zhu Yunxi hurriedly avoided the distance, stood up, bowed and left.
After leaving the Zhongji Hall, Zhu Yunxi saw countless palace maids and eunuchs outside, carrying things from the direction of the East Palace to Xi'an Gate in the west of the imperial city.
When the prince wants to inspect Guanzhong, he must first cross the Yangtze River.
After leaving the palace at Xi'an Gate, you can go all the way north to the Jinchuan Gate, board a boat and go down the river to Yangzhou Mansion, then turn north and follow the canal all the way to Luoyang, Henan, and then turn overland to enter the Guanzhong Plain.
Looking at the people coming out of the East Palace, there are not many people.
Zhu Yunxi hurried over to Xi'an Gate.
When he arrived at Xi'an Gate, the palace's pro-army troops were already gathered in the square of the city gate.
The Ming Dynasty Dragon Flag, Sun and Moon Flag, and Star Flag flutter in the wind.
Although the incident happened unexpectedly, the palace had already made plans for the Crown Prince's western tour, and the things that should be prepared in advance were also decided early on.
The pro-military guards, the palace maids, and the officials accompanying the court were all gathered at this time.
After passing through the crowd, it took Zhu Yunxi a long time to find the prince's father who was talking to the officials accompanying the Western Inspection this time.
With the previous officials of various ministries and offices leaving the palace, the news that Zhu Yunxi will come to the court to observe the administration has quietly spread to the ears of officials of all sizes in the court.
Seeing Zhu Yunxi coming over at this moment, the officials immediately stepped back, gave up their positions, and bowed to him: "I will see you, Your Highness."
Crown Prince Zhu Biao still held his left hand behind his back and turned the white jade ring with his right hand. With a smile on his face, he watched the courtiers bow to Zhu Yunxi.
Zhu Yunxi came closer and raised his hands in vain: "All ministers, get up quickly."
Observe and participate in government affairs.
This is the official start of the training step.
The officials stood up carefully and looked at Zhu Yunxi with a subtle smile.
Zhu Yunxi coughed slightly and glanced several times at the prince's father, who had never spoken and was trying to save him.
As long as he bites the bullet and says: "Today, all the ministers and ministers will accompany the Crown Prince on a tour to the west. Thank you for your hard work. I hope your trip goes well."
"This is the duty of ministers. I dare not talk about hard work."
All the officials responded and saw that Zhu Yunxi seemed to have something to say to the prince before leaving, so they carefully withdrew and left the place to the Tian family father and son.
After the outsiders left, Zhu Yunxi looked at the prince and his father with a smile.
Zhu Biao smiled and asked, "Does your grandpa Huang want you to bring me a message?"
Zhu Yunxi nodded: "Grandpa said that if you meet your second uncle on the West Patrol Road, you must give him a lesson..."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Biao suddenly laughed.
Then he glanced at Zhu Yunxi and said quietly: "Look, your grandpa wants me to be the villain. How can I really punish your second uncle severely?"
After Zhu Yunxi left the Zhongji Palace, he also figured out the meaning of the old man's message to him.
He could only agree with a smile: "That's the nature of my second uncle, and you used to take care of my uncles the most. If you didn't teach my uncle a lesson on the road, grandpa would have no choice but to punish him severely when he comes to Beijing." Already..."
One is a good person and the other is a bad person.
This is what the old man made.
Seeing that Zhu Yunxi had seen this matter clearly, Zhu Biao felt satisfied and nodded: "Your grandfather... I am now on a tour to the west, and you have to go to the court to observe the government. I guess your grandfather wants you to learn to mark memorials." .”
Zhu Yunxi nodded.
Zhu Biao put away the smile on his face at this time and said in a deep voice: "I am not in the capital. You have to observe the government affairs and review the memorials. You should be more careful. You must know that the affairs of the country affect the people of the world."
Zhu Yunxi also said seriously: "My child knows."
"Yes." Zhu Biao nodded and said, "I have never fully understood your grandfather's temper in all these years. If you stay with him for a long time in the future, if you want to do things well, you must not anger him."
"The child knows."
Zhu Biao sighed with a rather worried look on his face, raised his hand and put it down again, and said softly: "Things in the palace are not as good as outside. As members of the Tianjia clan, I must always keep in mind the lessons of the past and set an example for the people of the Ming Dynasty." .”
Today, Zhu Biao was not able to return to the East Palace to pack up the belongings brought by the Western Tour, but he still had someone send the message back. In view of the fact that the Crown Princess wanted to pray for the scriptures she copied, in the days after his western tour, all matters in the East Palace were decided by Prince Huaiyou.
But at this time, he never said anything about it.
Zhu Yunxi also understood the meaning of the prince's father's words, nodded, put on a smile and said: "You must pay more attention to your health during this western tour, and be sure not to overwork yourself. Everything, and the officials accompanying the western tour Even if you go to Guanzhong, there are still two uncles from the Xu family here, so you should pay more attention to rest."
Zhu Biao was stunned, seeing for the first time that his son, who had changed a lot recently, would be nagging like this.
He smiled, turned to look at the team in front of him who was almost ready for the Western Tour, and waved his hand: "Go ahead, I will be back before the end of the year for this Western Tour. You must not leave behind your homework." , and you should be more at ease."
After finishing his instructions, Zhu Biao did not give Zhu Yunxi a chance to talk anymore. He waved to his personal serving eunuch and helped him onto the carriage prepared in front.
Zhu Yunxi slowly stepped aside and watched the entire Western Inspection Team set off towards the gate of Xi'an.
