Chapter 8 Prince Zhu Biao
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at He Xi, eager to see the flaws in He Xi's words, or something fishy. Thus it was determined that He Xi was lying. However, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't see it at all. It can only be seen that He Xi's words were frank.
Zhu Yuanzhang re-judged He Xi's value.
He originally thought that six hundred years of history would be like that. Count six hundred years from the Ming Dynasty forward. It's just the Tang Dynasty. There were not no gaps between the Ming Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty. But the gap is definitely not that big. The Tang army flourished six hundred years ago. Six hundred years later, it will still be an elite and capable army. But the most capable military force of the Ming Dynasty today will probably only be the martial arts performance team six hundred years from now.
Zhu Yuanzhang asked: "What about the ordinary people there?"
When mentioning this matter, He Xi was full of complaints and said: "Ordinary people work all year round and can't keep three melons and two dates. Especially the housing prices are too high. Ordinary people can't afford a house. If I hadn't been able to find a job. Chaos. Submit your resume-----" He Xi also wanted to say that he would not come here either.
But he remembered that the person in front of him was Zhu Yuanzhang.
This is why I dare not be presumptuous.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang had a good attitude towards He Xi. As time passed, He Xi forgot that the person in front of him was Emperor Hongwu.
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't feel He Xi's pain? What doesn’t sell a house. Ordinary people's houses have been accumulated over several generations. Rarely can it be built in one generation. If there is one, it is a thatched house similar to a shack.
As for ordinary people who work all year round, there is not much left. Isn't this normal?
Zhu Yuanzhang then asked: "What do ordinary people in your place eat?"
He Xi said: "The food is very ordinary. The staple food is flour and rice, and some vegetables. It is not too difficult to eat meat."
Zhu Yuanzhang's face was moved and he said: "Four, rice, eat meat."
He Xi said: "Yes."
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Are you talking about ordinary people's homes?"
He Xi said: "Of course it's from ordinary people's homes. As for the dignitaries, they can eat hundreds of thousands in one meal. I don't know how they eat."
He Xi didn't know how much excitement he brought to Zhu Yuanzhang.
Because Zhu Yuanzhang came up from the lowest level of the people, he knew what ordinary people eat at home. That is to say, when spring is busy and autumn is busy, I only eat a few dry meals. Normally, it is just wild vegetables to satisfy my hunger.
This is the result of Zhu Yuanzhang's hard work for more than ten years. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, there was a great famine in the world, and people were eating each other. The misery was unspeakable.
Many officials could not understand Zhu Yuanzhang's behavior. In their view, it was simply self-abuse. Everyone has a simple meal. Maximum four dishes and one soup. The reception standard of four dishes and one soup is still the working meal for Ming officials set by Zhu Yuanzhang.
This is because the hunger of his youth was deeply engraved in Zhu Yuanzhang's bones. His inner world had been successfully shaped before he was twenty years old.
In the eyes of dignitaries, they are nothing worth mentioning. But it can make Zhu Yuanzhang feel the same.
But what can Zhu Yuanzhang do even if he is the emperor? He may be able to transform a person from penniless to rich and powerful. But he could not make the people of Ming Dynasty change from having enough to eat to having enough to eat.
Even so, Zhu Yuanzhang's saintliness was the foundation for the Ming Dynasty to last for hundreds of years. The Hongwu period was the era that the people of the Ming Dynasty missed the most.
In Zhu Yuanzhang's view, all nuclear bombs and missiles are fictitious, only eating is real. Let people all over the world eat rice and flour. Occasionally, it can also be stained with meat and fish. That was a prosperous age that he could not imagine.
At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang had an impulse. He wanted to visit future generations and see how they governed the country. How can the people of Ming Dynasty be able to eat rice and white flour, and occasionally have meaty days.
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Mr. He, do you have a way to make Ming Dynasty like later generations?"
He Xi brought great irritation to Zhu Yuanzhang, so that Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but use honorifics.
He Xi said: "Your Majesty, major events in the world cannot be entrusted to one person. The scientific system of future generations will need millions of scientists to maintain its development. This alone will not work. However, scientific education will be carried out from now on. , probably in a hundred years, it will probably be able to feed and clothe most people in the Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Yuanzhang was filled with excitement after hearing He Xi's words. Calmed down.
Zhu Yuanzhang may not know what science is. How scientific research is conducted. But he knows how to do one thing. Let the people all over the world eat rice and white flour, sometimes with meat and fish. It was a feat that Zhu Yuanzhang had never imagined.
Such a feat cannot be achieved all at once. It will definitely require countless years of hard work. And this goal is worth no matter how many years of hard work it takes.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang also knew about such a major national policy. I don’t know how many people it affects. Don't listen to one side of the story. Although Zhu Yuanzhang believed that He Xi did not lie to him. However, such a national event affects tens of millions of people, so no matter how cautious you are, Zhu Yuanzhang must first understand the reason.
But just now Zhu Yuanzhang didn't understand any scientific logic or rational spirit at all.
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "I also heard that the way of science is profound and profound. You can't explain it clearly in a few words, and I can't understand it either. I give you two tasks. The first task is to read the Great Ming Calendar all the way to your The history of the times must be written down, and no one can read it except me. Another task is to write down the scientific method for me, and I want to read it.”
He Xi agreed without any burden. Said: "I obey the decree."
If He Xi came alone without her mobile phone, this might be a difficult task. After all, the brain alone can remember so many knowledge points. He is definitely not an ordinary person. And He Xi brought a computer. Although computers cannot access the Internet now. But there is enough data in the computer. It was a piece of cake for him to compile these two books.
At this time, Xu was outside and whispered: "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is here."
Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned, and suddenly understood in his heart, and said to himself: "It must be Song Lian who came to intercede on behalf of Song Lian." Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Let him come."
After a while, Zhu Biao strode in. He Xi saw Zhu Biao from a distance and saw that he and Zhu Yuanzhang were almost carved out of the same mold. Just a little younger, nearly thirty this year. A beard has begun to grow around his mouth. His whole personality is completely different from Zhu Yuanzhang's.
Zhu Yuanzhang has a strong sense of presence. No matter what the situation, even among the crowd, everyone will notice him at a glance. There is also a feeling of not being angry and being proud. That was He Xi's feeling when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang for the first time. But Zhu Biao is different.
Zhu Biao gives people the impression that he is a very sunny brother, with a clean and pure feeling all over his body. However, in his eyes, it was like a deep pool of water with no bottom. This also shows that Zhu Biao is definitely not without any city government.
After Zhu Biao saluted Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yuanzhang introduced Zhu Biao: "This is your younger brother of the He family. You are the eldest brother. From now on, you must take care of him like your own brother. Do you understand?"
Zhu Biao said: "Since my father has said so, then the child will fight against the younger brother of the He family. I heard that the younger brother of the He family didn't sleep much last night. Today, the father held the younger brother of the He family and talked for another day. Even though he was thinking about it. Juniors, you can't do this either. Father, it's better for you, the younger brother of the He family, to have a good rest. Is there something that we can't talk about again in the future?"
He Xi sighed secretly in his heart. No wonder so many people like Zhu Biao. Zhu Biao and Zhu Yuanzhang are indeed different.
To be honest, He Xi was really tired at this moment.
Zhu Yuanzhang's energy is simply different from ordinary people. He Xi hasn't slept well these days. But Zhu Yuanzhang did not necessarily sleep well. But Zhu Yuanzhang, who is in his fifties, is full of energy. Not a trace of fatigue was visible. You can even pull He Xi to ask questions. And He Xi knew that she was facing Zhu Yuanzhang, so she couldn't lose her composure for a moment. I had to work hard to get through it.
Zhu Biao's words touched He Xi's heart.
It seemed that Zhu Yuanzhang could see He Xi's fatigue after listening to Zhu Biao's prompt. He snorted coldly and said, "Today's young people." However, Zhu Yuanzhang did not let He Xi go to rest. Instead, he asked Zhu Biao, "What are you doing here?"
Zhu Biao said: "Father, let Master Song review these memorials for you. It's just that Master Song is worried that they are not to your liking. I will volunteer to get them now. Is there anything your father can't see? For the sake of my son's face, I will Don’t blame Master Song.”
In fact, Zhu Biao had some thoughts that he did not express.
Zhu Biao was very worried. This was a test by his father against Master Song Lian. After all, Zhu Biao actually understands Zhu Yuanzhang's thoughts best. Zhu Yuanzhang actually had objections to Song Lian during this period of time. Specifically, it was not that Zhu Yuanzhang had a problem with Song Lian, but that Zhu Yuanzhang had a problem with the treacherous ministers in the court who had crooked thoughts.
It is a pity that in Zhu Yuanzhang's view, the Manchu Dynasty was civil and military. If you kill them all, you will definitely be unjust, but if you kill every other person, you will definitely be unjust.
Song Lian seems to be a pure minister. But where is Song Lian from? Western Zhejiang. At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, those who competed with the Huaixi group for the position of prime minister were that group, the Zhejiang Western group. Among them, Song Lian is famous in the world and can be regarded as a red flag. It's really nothing.
Zhu Yuanzhang just cherished Song Lian's knowledge. Now Song Lian relied on his influence on the prince to repeatedly disrupt the government. Yes, the prince advised him many times. This made Zhu Yuanzhang unhappy. Of course he wouldn't blame his son. So he blamed Song Lian for the incident. His attitude towards Song Lian is getting worse and worse.
Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly and said, "I regret letting you become Song Lian's teacher." Zhu Yuanzhang felt that the prince was a bit too womanly. There is no wise and decisive temperament at all. Blame all this on Song Lian's professor. He felt that Master Song was knowledgeable. But I don’t know how to teach an emperor.
The prince could only apologize and sent up the memorandum of Song Lian's decree.
