Chapter 10 New Forces
Only by doing things well now can you think about the future.
The future is still too far away.
From some people's personal perspective, He Xi must have created a lot of tragedies. Without him, these slaves transformed themselves into new capitalists and exchanged money for power. The first thing they have to do is to clear their status as slaves.
Don't hesitate to destroy the original owner.
They are probably people like the Lai family in Dream of Red Mansions. Even the relationship between the Lai family and the Jia family in Dream of Red Mansions, the Jia family fell, and the Lai family transformed into an official family. This in itself is a footnote to the late collapse of feudalism.
It's just that He Xi has seen too many things like this.
Social evolution has its own laws, those who follow them will prosper, and those who go against them will perish.
The tragedies and comedies of just a few people or families are no longer discernible by He Xi.
In addition to nobles and government bond merchants, there is another group, and that is scholars from several universities in Beijing.
Take Zhao Zongde as this one.
Zhao Zongde invented the steam engine, and Ge Tiangong's contribution to the railway project is naturally obvious to all. In addition, there were dozens of people, large and small. They are all people who have made great achievements in the scientific field.
Although He Xi felt that many of these people had reached their current position by chance. But no matter what, He Xi has cultivated a team of scientists over the years.
This is also his greatest relief.
Even now he is no longer here. As long as these people do not suffer political pressure, they can continue to carry on the work. Passed down from generation to generation.
Perhaps, you will encounter many problems. But He Xi didn't feel that he couldn't develop to the heights of later generations.
After all, there are so many Chinese scientists in the world. He Xi believed in their intelligence. As long as the direction is correct, everything is fine.
These people were also recommended by He Xi to be in the meeting.
He Xi's thoughts cannot be hidden from others at all, and he just wants to confirm his theory as the official science of the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Xiongying also supports this point.
Without him, He Xi's theory became the official science of the Ming Dynasty, which was also a good thing for Zhu Xiongying. Since ancient times, there have been many people who wanted to become a master and a master. But few can do it and succeed. Probably only teachers.
In He Xi's position, he must make a choice, or he will usurp the throne and ascend to the throne. No matter how clean he is in the future, he will still be written with Sima Yi's name. After all, Zhu Yuanzhang is not unkind to He Xi.
Even in Zhu Yuanzhang's dying thoughts, it was not that he did not think that He Xi might be able to replace him, but Zhu Yuanzhang finally chose not to care.
Otherwise, He Xi would not be today.
As the founder of the doctrine, He Xi has the same reputation as the Sima family. Not to mention the problems in future governance, this reputation alone will keep many future generations at a distance. You and your teacher are two choices.
Since He Xi has chosen his teacher, he wants to replace Confucius and become his teacher to all generations.
This means that Zhu Xiongying's throne is secure.
Why didn't Zhu Xiongying help?
In Zhu Xiongying's position, before he took office, it didn't matter what he thought or what doctrine he was inclined to. The most important thing is to preserve one's rights, because the emperor's power is his life. Nothing else matters.
Domain kings, nobles, scholar-bureaucrats, civil servant representatives, government bond merchants, new scholars, etc. These are the main people in this conference.
It is also a critical time for the rise of new forces.
-------
Dingguo will be so important.
At this conference, He Xi did not dare to take advantage of others and presided over it personally. Yao Guangxiao's instructions to Gu Wangsun were also He Xi's ideas.
Now as time comes.
People from all parties also came to Nanjing.
Zhu Xiongying also became concerned about this matter. So, this time, without saying hello to He Xi, he came to He Mansion.
After all, Zhu Xiongying is right
Yu He is very familiar with it. This is the place where he used to stay when he was a boy. This time, he didn't come alone. And took his son with him.
But he is the eldest son born to Queen Wang. Now he is three years old.
Zhu Xiongying got married in the first year of Longwu, almost the same time as Zhu Yunwen. However, Zhu Xiongying and Zhu Yunwen made different choices.
At that time, Zhu Xiongying also thought about choosing a family from among the nobles to marry into, so as to consolidate the imperial power. But Zhu Xiongying thought about it and finally gave up.
If possible, Zhu Xiongying would like to marry He Xi's daughter, but He Xi only has two sons. No daughter.
Now even if they have a daughter, the age difference is too big.
However, Beijing lacks powerful nobles, and those who are neither good nor bad are actually of little use to Zhu Xiongying. He thought about it and decided to follow the tradition of the Ming Dynasty emperors. Of course, this tradition does not exist yet.
But he has it here.
Married a merchant's daughter.
Queen Wang also knew that she had no background and was very gentle. Zhu Xiongying was also very satisfied. Not to mention, Zhu Xiongying knew very well that the future would be dominated by businessmen. Although the Queen and Wang family were not big businessmen, they still had a lot of background. With the emperor as the background.
The Wang family's property suddenly grew bigger. Moreover, Zhu Xiongying also transferred some capable people from the Wang family into the royal industry. It also makes up for the lack of business talents around Zhu Xiongying.
In this way, it can be regarded as a satisfactory cooperation.
It's just that Queen Wang's background cannot be compared with Queen Fu of Nanjing, so she will inevitably be criticized by many people. The group keeps a low profile. But when it comes to fulfilling the Queen's responsibilities, it is full marks.
The first family to enter has the eldest son.
The queen's position was immediately secured.
Zhu Xiongying has not yet been crowned prince. But everyone can see that the eldest son of the emperor must be the prince in the future. I have Zhu Xiongying with me almost every day.
When I was in Beijing, it wasn't too obvious.
After all, He Xi did not seize power over Zhu Xiongying, it could only be said that there was a division of labor. The specific administrative power is in the hands of He Xi, and He Xi will also discuss it with Zhu Xiongying when making decisions. Although most of the time, Zhu Xiongying could only admit that He Xi's method was the best. You can only act according to He Xi's method.
Supervision power and some personnel power are very hands-off.
In addition, Beijing was at war at that time, so anything could happen. Zhu Xiongying couldn't do it without worrying.
It is not impossible to accidentally see the enemy coming the next day.
But today, big things have been decided. Is the matter in front of me important?
Nature is important.
So what if it's important?
It should not be like the situation during the war. Zhu Xiongying became much more relaxed.
There are more times when I have my eldest son by my side and enjoy family happiness.
Just like this time, I also took him with me.
Three-year-old children are very cute. Meaty.
Seeing this, He Xi saluted Zhu Xiongying and teased the child for a while. Only then did the two get down to business.
He Xi said: "I don't know, what is the purpose of Your Majesty's visit?"
Zhu Xiongying sighed and said, "It's not because of my uncles. The uncles of Shu are very pitiful."
Not all Zhu Yuanzhang's sons were sealed away.
It goes without saying that the King of Shu stayed in the capital, and it goes without saying that the King of Shu came back from Japan. A few are too small. Even younger than He Xi's son. Naturally, it is not yet time to seal the vassal state. However, as the emperor, Zhu Xiongying was also the patriarch of the Zhu family.
When it comes to taking care of these uncles, he has to do it.
Needless to say, the prince not only had his two sons and Zhu Yunwen, but also had other sons. Taking care of these younger brothers was also his responsibility as an elder brother. What's even more troublesome is Zhu Yunwen's son.
This matter is a royal internal matter. It must also be discussed carefully with He Xi.
After all, when it comes to vassaling, family affairs are state affairs, and state affairs are also family affairs.
The King of Shu and the Princess of Shu have a very good relationship. The Princess of Shu is the daughter of Lan Yu because she is involved in the Lan Yu case. Princess Shu also died because of this. The King of Shu hated Zhu Yunwen deeply, and Zhu Yunwen even imposed many restrictions on the King of Shu.
After all, the King of Shu was innocent, and Zhu Yunwen did not dare to go too far. But even so, the King of Shu has been almost in jail in the past few years.
Now I am free again. This is too difficult. It’s sad to think about it now.
