Zhu Yunwen is not a kind and compassionate person. All he cares about is the people of the Ming Dynasty.
As for the Japanese floating from the sea, regardless of whether they were civilians or Japanese pirates, as long as they came from the Japanese island, they were not allowed to enter the territory of the Ming Dynasty.
"Send these memorials to the General Affairs Department and ask them to send them out quickly. Also tell the cabinet that in the future, Japanese reports will follow the previous policy and there is no need to ask for instructions again!"
Zhu Yunwen pointed to the memorial and said to Shuangxi.
Shuangxi agreed and handed the memorial to the attendant waiting at the door. As soon as he explained clearly, he saw Fang Xiaoru and Yao Guangxiao coming hand in hand.
Zhu Yunwen allowed him to enter the palace.
After seeing the ceremony, Fang Xiaoru took out Luo Guanying's winter examination article and said to Zhu Yunwen: "The ancients said that those who do not have permanent property but have perseverance can only be scholars. If you are a common people, you will not have permanent property because you have no perseverance. If you have no perseverance, it is a waste to ward off evil spirits. , do everything for your own sake. If you focus on agriculture, you will have constant output, but if you focus on commerce, you will not have constant output, and the world will be in chaos."
The permanent property here is land.
Yao Guangxiao retorted: "If there are no merchants to sell goods, how can the people get utensils? Wouldn't the world become rotten wood just by bartering?"
Zhu Yunwen frowned as he listened to the quarrel between the two. After reading Luo Guanying's article, he raised his head and asked, "Why didn't Yang Shiqi come?"
Yao Guangxiao and Fang Xiaoru were stunned at the same time, and then they realized they had been fooled...
Damn Yang Shiqi, he made it clear that he wanted us two to be taken advantage of and make things bigger, but he didn't even realize that he was being sold and even helped him count the money...
Zhu Yunwen put the test paper aside and said with a smile: "Businessmen value profits over separation, which has its own disadvantages, but a country cannot do without businessmen. Let's talk about it as a compromise. In order to get salt, businessmen helped the court to pay tribute. When transporting grain to the frontier, if there are no merchants, the court can only recruit migrant workers, wouldn’t it be a waste of money and a waste of people?”
Fang Xiaoru said with a gloomy face: "In the compromise method, merchants have made contributions, but Your Majesty, this article actually mentions farmers and merchants as equals. Isn't it funny? No matter what merchants do, they are not worth the loss of the people."
Zhu Yunwen looked at the stubborn Fang Xiaoru and did not refute. He just said: "The matter is unclear. Since this is an article from the Imperial College and you have objections, you might as well arrange for the Imperial College to hold another debate."
Fang Xiaoru said in a deep voice: "The minister must go to the Imperial College in person to select the person to debate."
"And you?"
Zhu Yunwen looked at Yao Guangxiao.
Yao Guangxiao stirred the Buddhist beads, shook his head slightly, and said: "I was just in a urn for a while. Now that I have woken up, I will not argue again. However, in my opinion, there are people in the Imperial College who are good at eloquence and can rectify Shang's name."
Zhu Yunwen laughed and said with satisfaction: "Leave the matter of the Imperial College to the Imperial College. Tell Yang Shiqi that I will attend the debate."
Fang Xiaoru felt a little ashamed, and saluted Yao Guangxiao: "I planned for Yang Shiqi and lost my heart. Now that I am old, I should not be so irritable."
Yao Guangxiao returned the gift and said: "Sir, he also worries about the people and worries about the people..."
"Mr. Fang, how is the progress of "Records of Taizu"?"
Zhu Yunwen asked.
Fang Xiaoru replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, the "Records of Taizu" has a rough plan of 180 volumes, and 70 volumes have been completed. It is expected to be compiled in April of the third year of Jianwen."
Zhu Yunwen nodded with satisfaction and said: "If there are insufficient personnel, we can call in knowledgeable, fair and sensible people from the Imperial College or the local government."
Writing a book is not an easy task, especially writing about Zhu Yuanzhang. It is easy to write about the good things he did, but how to write about the bad things he did?
Taboo for the venerable.
You can only write concisely and carefully.
The most important thing is that Zhu Yuanzhang's son is the vassal king and his grandson is the emperor. If someone accidentally belittles or scolds Zhu Yuanzhang in the history books, a group of people will go crazy...
Although historians and editors need to have backbone, they also need to breathe...
"What happened to Baoen Temple and the Monument of Heroes?"
Zhu Yunwen looked at Yao Guangxiao.
Yao Guangxiao is the supervisor of Bao'en Temple and the Monument of Heroes. Hearing Zhu Yunwen's inquiry, he stopped the prayer beads and said: "It's going well. It's just that it has been rainy and cold recently, and some projects have been stopped."
Zhu Yunwen nodded, the people's power cannot be bullied, Yao Guangxiao still handled things properly.
"I will visit the victims when I have time. If there are any difficulties, report them to the Ministry of Works for prompt resolution."
Zhu Yunwen asked.
Yao Guangxiao agreed repeatedly, and not long after, the two left Wuying Hall.
Daning.
It's snowing heavily and the roads are blocked.
Sheng Yong stood on the city wall, looking at the silver-covered grassland, covered in wind and snow, unable to see the distance.
"Close the city gate!"
Sheng Yong ordered sharply.
Mao Zheng said quickly: "Sir, it's still early at this time, and some of the people who went into the mountains have not returned yet. What will they do if the city gate is closed?"
Sheng Yong glared at Mao Zheng with cold eyes and said, "Don't you understand my order?"
Mao Zheng shivered and quickly made arrangements.
Soon after, all the gates of Daning City slowly closed.
Sheng Yong pointed to the wind and snow in the sky and said sternly: "In the 20th year of Hongwu, Lan Yu accompanied Feng Sheng to conquer Naha. Lan Yu led the light cavalry and attacked Qingzhou with blood. At that time, the Yuan army in Qingzhou was attacked by heavy snow. Without taking any precautions, the city gate opened wide and the city fell instantly. It’s snowing heavily now, and I can’t see ten feet away. If there is a cavalry attack, how can the city gate be closed in time at such a distance? "
"As generals, how can you achieve great things if you don't become a teacher through the achievements of others, don't learn from defeat, only follow the old ways, and don't change when the opportunity arises? As for the farmers and people entering the city, is there no other way?"
Mao Zheng, He Yunzhong and others were speechless by Sheng Yong, so they had to bow their heads and accept the instruction.
"Did you hear that?"
Sheng Yong frowned and asked close to the city wall.
Mao Zheng, He Yunzhong looked at Sheng Yong in confusion. Before they could ask any questions, they heard the sound of galloping horse hooves.
"alert!"
"alert!"
The sound spread in the wind and snow, and the soldiers climbed onto the city wall to prepare for battle.
"Lord Du Si, the Duoyan Guard Commander is asking for an audience with Zhi Ha'er."
Ha'er led 300 cavalry and arrived at the gate of Daning City. Looking at the closed gate of Daning City, he couldn't help but secretly take a breath. Sheng Yong was particularly worried in peace.
This person is not easy to deal with.
Mao Zheng, He Yunzhong were frightened when they saw this scene.
If it weren't for Sheng Yong's order, Har'er's cavalry would have easily entered Daning City. If they were enemies, Daning City would have fallen by now!
Against the Mongolian cavalry, if you lose a gate, you lose a city.
Sheng Yong didn't show his head, just stood there, lowering the knife on his waist.
Mao Zheng passed through the crenel and looked down the city. He recognized Ha'er and shouted loudly: "Master Tongzhi, what's the important thing when you come here in the wind and snow?"
Ha'er raised his head and shouted: "Master Mao, please open the city gate and let me wait to enter the city. I have something important to report."
Mao Zheng turned around and glanced at Sheng Yong, who only shook his head slightly.
"The commander-in-chief has issued an order to close the city today. We are waiting for you."
I don't dare to let him go privately. If you have something important to do with your lord, I can tell you frankly. I'll forward it to your lord Dusi and let him make a decision. "
Mao Zheng shouted to the city.
Seeing that Mao Zheng could not open the city gate, Ha'er's face darkened and he shouted loudly: "Inform King Ning and Du Si that there has been a change in the Taining Guards, which is very likely to collude with the Tatar tribe. To protect Wu Liangha, three guards were stationed The pastureland is in danger, the Duoyan Guard Left Army Commander Qian Shi Tuolu Huchaer and the Fu Yu Guard Commander Qian Shi An have gone out with their troops to investigate."
Mao Zheng watched as Haer turned his horse's head and led the cavalry away from Daning City.
Sheng Yong frowned and asked, "Where is Liu Changge?"
Mao Zheng pointed outside the city and said, "I went out five days ago and haven't come back yet."
Sheng Yong arranged for Mao to summon Yang Cheng from Qianhu of the Security Bureau and asked: "Does the Taining Guard have contact with the Tatars?"
Yang Cheng replied seriously: "Now that the Tatar tribes are moving eastward, not to mention Taining Guard, Duoyan Guard and Fuyu Guard, they will come into contact with the Tatars more or less. But this kind of contact is not necessarily collusion. It’s not necessarily a rebellion against the Ming Dynasty. Based on the intelligence currently available to the Security Bureau, Taining Guards have no signs of rebellion.”
"If there is no sign of rebellion, if Duoyan Guard and Fuyu Guard mobilize troops like this, where will their swords point?"
Sheng Yong was worried.
"Open the city gate!"
There was a sharp shout from the city, which alarmed Sheng Yong.
"It's Mr. Liu!"
Yang Cheng heard the voice and quickly looked over, and it turned out to be Liu Changge.
Sheng Yong ordered: "Throw the rope basket down!"
Mr. Liu Chang dismounted and looked at the rope basket a little depressed. He wandered onto the city wall and complained to Sheng Yong: "As for that? How can I come back if I don't confirm it's safe?"
Sheng Yong had a cold face, not caring what Liu Changge said, and asked: "Do you know what happened to Duoyan Wei and Fu Yuwei? What do they want to do?"
Liu Changge snatched the wine bag from Sheng Yong's waist, took a few sips, and then said: "If my prediction is correct, from today onwards, Taining Guard will no longer exist."
"What?!"
Sheng Yong's expression changed.
Liu Changge's face became solemn and he said in a deep voice: "With the power of my telescope, I secretly monitored Duoyan Guard for many days and found that they were mobilized frequently. I also contacted Fuyu Guard many times, but I didn't see anyone from Taining Guard. I want to come, Duoyan Guard. Yan Wei and Fu Yu Wei have formed an alliance and want to eat Tai Ning Wei."
"How can we allow them to do this!"
Sheng Yong shouted angrily.
Liu Changge pointed at the wind and snow and said helplessly: "This kind of weather is most suitable for a surprise attack. The Taining Guards are unprepared, and the Duoyan Guards and Fuyu Guards are dispatched in large numbers. The results can be imagined."
"Lord Dusi, the three Wuliangha guards were established by the imperial court. The Daning Dusi has the right to exercise control and cannot allow internal conflicts. Troops should be sent out immediately to stop Duoyan Guard and Fuyu Guard..."
He Yunzhong said seriously.
Sheng Yong stretched out his rough and strong hand, and a piece of snowflake fell into his palm, and immediately turned into ice water. His eyes were full of sorrow, and he said feebly: "We can't go to war!"
Tomato free reading
Tuolu Huchaer rode his horse and swung his sword, and the blade struck the neck of the Taining Guard man. The graceful curve cut across it, bringing out a lively red color.
The pure white snow is constantly dotted with red.
"Return without killing!"
Tulu Huchaer looked at the unarmed herdsmen and shouted sharply.
Banhu of the Taining Guards suddenly rushed out of the camp, and groups of cavalry rushed into the Taining Guards' guards. Groups of people were forced to surrender and give up resistance.
Tuolu Hucha'er and An Chu came slowly, holding a saber dripping with blood...
