The emperor is the biggest landowner!
One sentence directly woke Zhu Biao up.
He realized that all this was simply talking about his father, Zhu Yuanzhang.
The Yuan Dynasty was unruly and a large number of lands were annexed. The rich got richer and the poor got poorer.
What Zhu Yuanzhang represented at that time was the peasant class.
He is the exploited and oppressed party.
When this oppression reached a critical point, the peasant class broke out.
Zhu Yuanzhang rebelled, overthrew the Yuan Dynasty, defeated all opponents, and ascended to the throne.
Then, Zhu Yuanzhang became the landlord class, and he was still the largest landlord!
"Dragon slayers will eventually become dragons, that's the reality."
Su Jing also said a little sadly.
The dynasty rotates, just like a wheel, what is supposed to come will always come.
"Okay, Niu Yi, don't think too much. The Ming Dynasty is strong and powerful, and the future is still far away from us. Living in the present is the most important thing."
Su Jing comforted her, glanced at the getting dark, got up and went back to rest.
The night is bright.
Zhu Biao was lying in front of the desk. The moonlight shone through the window, but it was still a little cold.
Only one candlestick shone with warmth.
Zhu Biao buried his head in his pen and wanted to write, but he didn't know where to start.
What he learned today can be described as shocking.
I thought that the demise of the Ming Dynasty was caused by the emergence of the next productivity tool.
Unexpectedly, there was no way out of the inherent fate of the feudal dynasty.
He is confused!
As the future heir of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Biao felt so powerless for the first time in his life.
"Maybe my father will find a way."
Zhu Biao comforted himself and began to write furiously.
In Su Jing's small courtyard, the flames rose and went out. In just a moment, Su Jing pulled out a few black eggs from inside.
After briefly wiping the outer skin, Su Jing opened it and tried it.
"The roasted potatoes are so fragrant, it makes me look forward to roasted sweet potatoes."
Su Jing ate her midnight snack happily and looked at the stars in the sky.
............
Forbidden City.
In the Fengxian Hall.
Zhu Yuanzhang's face was heavy, but it was not because of Su Jing. Zhu Biao hadn't finished writing yet.
On the table is a map of the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked towards the Yanshan area in the north with a solemn look:
"These remnants of the Yuan Dynasty are really rampant!"
Liu Bowen on the side said: "Your Majesty, although the Yuan people have been expelled, there are still many remnants. Now that the Ming Dynasty has just been established, both the people and the army need to recuperate."
As Zhu Yuanzhang's military advisor, Liu Bowen knew what Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking.
The Yuan Dynasty fell, but the remnants of the party were still active in the north.
As an important military geographical location, the Yanshan area is quite important.
In the Northern Song Dynasty, there was a lesson learned from the past, where something was gained and lost within two years.
Zhu Yuanzhang had already made plans to take action.
But Liu Bowen had to persuade him because the founding of the Ming Dynasty had gone through too many wars.
Now it is only the second year of Hongwu, and the people have only been cultivating and recuperating for one year, which is still not enough.
The foundation of Ming Dynasty is still too thin now.
"I know that these Yuan people are really a thorn in my side."
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed.
He wanted to send troops to conquer, but he also knew that if the Ming Dynasty used weapons again, it would be the people who would suffer.
The army is not the biggest problem when sending troops to conquer. The army of the Ming Dynasty has experienced successive battles, and it is the time to strengthen the army.
But if it is an expedition, food and fodder must be provided.
Where does food and grass come from? It only comes from the hands of farmers.
Liu Bowen said to Zhu Yuanzhang: "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry so much. In just a few years, Ming Dynasty will have enough energy to spare."
Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and said: "Soldiers are valuable and quick. I will have more strength in the Ming Dynasty in a few years. Those remnants of the Yuan Dynasty will definitely be more difficult to deal with."
"Yanshan is an important place and must not be lost. I don't want to see what happened in the Northern Song Dynasty when Yanshan was lost and recovered in the Ming Dynasty."
Liu Bowen bowed and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, I understand that I will definitely find a way to fill the national treasury and share your worries for Your Majesty!"
"Okay, you go down first."
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, and Liu Bowen immediately withdrew.
For Zhu Yuanzhang, the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty were indeed a stubborn disease, but they were just stubborn diseases after all.
He established the Ming Dynasty and experienced countless fierce battles.
What really worries Zhu Yuanzhang is Su Jing's theory that the economic base determines the superstructure.
The Ming Dynasty was conquered by Zhu Chongba through hard work, and he would never give it to others.
It is Zhu Yuanzhang's dream to last for eternity.
However, no news has come back from his son Zhu Biao. He has been thinking about it for a long time and has no clue.
"Su Jing, Su Jing, who are you?"
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were solemn, and he was very curious about who Su Jing was.
The Guards Department had already checked Su Jing's background thoroughly.
But Zhu Yuanzhang was not satisfied with the result.
There is nothing special about Su Jing's ancestors. There was only one scholar from the Yuan Dynasty.
Both parents were civilians and died in the war.
Su Jing was the only one in the family, and her husband, who had been studying since childhood, died of old age.
I have never studied with any famous teacher, and I have no special experience.
Although his fortune in Lishui County can be said to be very rapid, looking at it as a whole, he can only be said to be a business genius.
But what Su Jing is showing now is not comparable to that of a mere business genius.
That is simply a god!
From his casual words, he could see Ming's destiny clearly.
Even Liu Bowen obeyed him.
Zhu Yuanzhang now really wants to have a showdown with Su Jing immediately, disclose his identity, and recruit Su Jing to his command.
only.
When he thought of Su Jing's temper, he still thought it was inappropriate.
What's more important is that his wife, Queen Ma, has already personally sent shoes to Su Jing.
No matter what Lao Zhu wants to do to Su Jing, he must consider Queen Ma's attitude.
However, you can try to arrange a position in the palace.
I have been waiting for news about my son Zhu Biao all day long, but it is not timely enough!
At this time, outside Fengxian Hall.
The crown prince's teacher Song Lian is here again.
He is different from Liu Bowen. Although he is very famous, he does not hold any official position with real power. The only thing that can really make a difference in the palace is the crown prince's division.
The prince Zhu Biao has not come back for a long time, and he, the prince's master, really can't bear it.
After a while, Song Lian was called in.
"Your Majesty, I sincerely request your Majesty to recall the prince. Otherwise, I, the prince's teacher, will have no face to face your majesty."
As soon as he saw Zhu Yuanzhang, Song Lian immediately knelt down.
He knew that there was no use in talking, so he could only plead in this way.
Zhu Yuanzhang immediately helped Song Lian up and said: "Song Tiju, get up quickly, get up quickly, you are my prince's teacher."
Song Lian stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I would like to ask, who is teaching the prince now?"
"I really can't figure out who else can compare with the prince's teachers in this palace."
"If this person is really talented and learned, I will feel at ease. Otherwise, it will be really hard to give in!"
It turned out that Song Lian was the prince's teacher appointed by Zhu Yuanzhang and was highly respected in the palace.
Now that the prince has not appeared in the palace for an unknown number of days, there are many voices talking about Song Lian.
And scholars like Song Lian care most about reputation.
This is also the reason why he met Zhu Yuanzhang again today.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Song Lian and said, "Song Tiju, don't mention this matter again. I know the prince's arrangements well."
Song Lian had no choice but to retreat.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Song Lian's leaving figure, feeling helpless in his heart.
Su Jing is young, and there are many mature and prudent people like Song Lian in the palace. I am afraid that Su Jing will not be convinced.
And what Su Jing talked about cannot be made public. If Su Jing is really arranged to be in the palace, I am afraid it will be a bit troublesome.
