Lishui County.
It had been a few days since Zhu Biao left. Su Jing was only teaching Zhu Rui, and the progress was obviously much faster than before.
"Master Su, how should we understand the characteristics of this plant?"
Zhu Ru asked Su Jing.
Su Jing replied: "In genetics, traits refer to the morphological structure, physiological and biochemical characteristics and behavioral patterns of organisms."
At this time, Su Jing was already teaching Zhu Zhu some basic knowledge of plant genetics.
First popularize the concept, then slowly go deeper.
That is to say, I was pretty good at biology in high school, and I had a system to enhance my memory. Otherwise, teaching Zhu Ru would be really difficult.
Time always flies when you study, especially if you study hard.
In just a blink of an eye, it was noon.
Naturally, we still have to go out to settle the matter of eating.
The Jinling Hotel was very lively, with quite a lot of people coming and going.
Su Jing originally wanted to take Zhu Ru to a private room to eat, but as soon as she entered the door, she heard a table of diners not far away talking.
"Have you heard that this time, the emperor is furious!"
"Who says it's not the case? I would definitely be angry if you let me go!"
"That's right, these corrupt officials are so abominable!"
"It's better to kill them all. They have to be killed to make them afraid!"
Hearing this topic, Su Jingdang gave up the option of going to the private room and directly chose to sit in the lobby on the first floor.
Zhu Tie didn't have any objections anyway. He was still swimming in the ocean of knowledge at the moment.
While eating and listening, Su Jing finally figured it out.
Another official was arrested for corruption.
Of course, this was a fairly common thing during the Hongwu period, and everyone was used to it.
But what concerned Su Jing was that quite a few officials seemed to have been arrested this time.
This is interesting.
"I heard that he is the chief sealer of these local governments. He stamps the books without any tax figures, and then fills in the actual figures when he gets to the capital."
"Haha, these people are really brave."
"One of them is one, and they all didn't run away."
"Well done! I heard that the prince took the lead in what happened this time. It is really a blessing for the people of our Ming Dynasty to have such a prince."
Su Jing originally just wanted to listen to the gossip, but as he listened, he realized something was wrong.
Why does this matter sound so much like the empty seal case?
Although her history studies are average, and the Kong Seal Case is not something that needs special explanation in high school history textbooks, Su Jing still roughly remembers that the time of the Kong Seal Case was definitely not the second year of Hongwu.
This matter is ahead of schedule.
At least several years in advance.
Su Jing immediately thought of Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao. He was not stupid. It was because of the Mid-Autumn Festival that Lao Zhu came to him to ask about the embezzlement of food at home.
Only a few days later, the empty seal case broke out.
Among them, Su Jing would never believe it if there was no connection at all.
However, Su Jing did not immediately connect Lao Zhu with the Ming Emperor. Without him, Su Jing could not connect due to preconceived impressions.
Who is Zhu Yuanzhang?
The founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty conquered the world with one bowl at the beginning. In the vast history, among all the emperors, he is definitely a famous existence.
Absolute hero!
And Lao Zhu's behavior in front of Su Jing was that of a reckless and pretentious uncle.
Moreover, Su Jing also had a guess in her mind about Lao Zhu's identity, one of the founding heroes.
Looking at it this way, what he said to Lao Zhu may also reach Zhu Yuanzhang's ears.
This is not impossible.
After all, Chang Yuchun's incident had already happened once before.
History has changed because of my own touch.
The advance of the empty seal case may just be a manifestation of the butterfly effect.
"Niu Su, how much land does your family have?"
Su Jing asked Zhu Rui who was eating.
Although it seemed a bit impolite to ask, Su Jing still asked.
Zhu Tie thought for a while and replied: "Students don't know, but there should be countless."
Theoretically speaking, all the land in the Ming Dynasty belongs to the Zhu family.
Zhu Rui had countless answers, but there was nothing wrong with them.
Too many to count?
Su Jing frowned slightly, searching for the only historical knowledge in her mind, trying to find the names of the founding heroes of the Ming Dynasty.
Unfortunately, there are only a few that I can think of.
I wanted to face off against Lao Zhu, but neither of them looked quite right.
"Forget it, what do I want to do with this?"
Su Jing shook her head and laughed at herself.
He originally had no intention of delving into Zhu Biao's identity. A pure teacher-student relationship would be fine, but when he really knew it, he became cautious.
Now I'm just getting curious after hearing this bit of news. I really shouldn't be.
After understanding this, Su Jing felt much more relaxed.
In life, it is better to be confused.
After dinner, Su Jing took Zhu Ru home. The afternoon was mainly about Zhu Ru's independent thinking and study.
As for Su Jing, she began to make a telescope.
He has not forgotten what he agreed to Lao Zhu.
Thinking that these telescopes would be used on the frontline battlefield, Su Jing was very motivated.
The soldiers fought bloody battles, and it would be great if you could help.
Forbidden City.
In the Fengxian Hall.
"Father, my son is back."
Zhu Biao said to Zhu Yuanzhang, who had just returned from the execution ground.
Having just handled such a major case, Zhu Biao's body became a little more murderous, and the childishness in the young man's body had almost faded away.
"good."
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Biao, quite happy with his son's change.
Whether it is the people's praise for Zhu Biao or the officials' fear of Zhu Biao, Zhu Yuanzhang has been paying attention to the recent situation.
"Father, I think it's time to go back to study with Mr. Su."
Zhu Biao said to Zhu Yuanzhang.
Many corrupt officials were killed and tax inspections were arranged.
Zhu Biao thought that he should be ready to return to Su Jing now.
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said: "Don't worry, you have been away dealing with things these days, and your brothers still miss you very much. They are in the main hall now, you can go and see them."
As the eldest, Zhu Biao played the role of father and brother in front of his younger brothers because Zhu Yuanzhang dealt with government affairs all day and rarely had time to communicate with his sons in person.
Although we have already met during the Mid-Autumn Festival, there is not enough time.
Zhu Biao followed him back to the palace. He had to deal with things all the time and had no time to communicate too much with his brothers.
"My son, I know."
Zhu Biao nodded, turned around and left Fengxian Hall.
In the main hall, the princes were listening to the class carefully. Perhaps because they sensed the gap between Su Jing and Su Jing, they were studying particularly seriously at this time.
This made the teachers in the main hall very surprised. They did not expect that there would be such a change just after the Mid-Autumn Festival.
While they were delighted, they also taught more seriously.
After all, they don't know how long the princes can maintain this state. Taking advantage of the current opportunity, they can teach more.
From this point of view, these teachers in Dabentang can definitely be regarded as dedicated and dedicated.
only.
Compared to Su Jing's teaching method, their classes seemed much more boring.
Because they mainly talk about Confucianism, the teachings of Confucius and Mencius, and the words of saints.
The summary is that what the predecessors have said is the truth, and you just need to learn to remember it. At most, you can explain some connotations and meanings.
Therefore, this kind of class is more like a script with very little interaction.
"Keep your virtues clear and be virtuous, and be close to the nine tribes. When the nine tribes are harmonious, the common people will be harmonious. The common people will be enlightened, and all nations will be harmonious."
The teacher slowly finished reading this sentence and immediately explained: "What is said here is that justice can promote intelligence and virtue, and make the family close and harmonious. After the family is harmonious, the good and evil of the officials can be distinguished. Once the good and evil of the officials have been distinguished, the good and evil of the officials can be distinguished, and the good and evil of the officials can be distinguished. All the princely states are harmonious and harmonious."
This boring learning method, the princes can still study seriously, all depends on perseverance.
Not long after, the class ended and the break time came.
A group of princes were about to gather towards Kaos when Zhu Biao's figure appeared in front of everyone.
"Brother."
"Brother!"
The princes immediately gathered around him excitedly, and they were very kind to Zhu Biao.
Zhu Biao also smiled and responded one by one: "You have really grown up, and you are much more serious about studying now than before. This is good."
Zhu Xi said: "Brother, you can't be serious! You and the fifth brother are both being taught by Mr. Su. We are not so lucky."
Zhu Ping still felt a little resentful about this matter.
Zhu Biao looked at Zhu Fang and said, "Second brother, if you really want to learn, I can teach you what Mr. Su taught me."
"real?"
Zhu Xi was stunned for a moment, then asked excitedly.
Even the other princes on the side looked at Zhu Biao excitedly.
Just one day of class during the Mid-Autumn Festival made them deeply attracted.
However, Su Jing is not their teacher, and they think Zhu Biao's behavior is inappropriate.
Knowledge also had barriers in ancient times.
Not everyone can learn.
For example, Su Jing taught Zhu Biao, and Zhu Biao changed his hands and taught other people's behavior. If it were applied to some old scholars, I am afraid they would be furious.
"Don't worry, Master Su believes that knowledge should be widely disseminated instead of kept to itself. Only when more people learn knowledge can more new knowledge be discovered."
Zhu Biao replied with a smile.
Su Jing never minded this.
"Really, then I want to learn!"
Zhu Xi said immediately.
"Brother, I want to learn too."
The third child, Zhu Fan, echoed.
Although the fourth child, Zhu Di, said nothing, his expression said everything.
As for the sixth and seventh elders, although they still don’t know much about it, if everyone learns it, they will still get better.
Kaos on the side felt quite surprised when he heard Zhu Biao's words.
Because what Su Jing said, knowledge should be spread widely, is very close to their concept of wise men in ancient Rome.
"His Royal Highness, I would like to see you, Flo Kaos."
Kaos came to Zhu Biao and saluted respectfully.
Zhu Biao looked at Kaos and said, "Are you Kaos from Da Qin?"
Although he has been busy these days, in fact, he already knew the existence of Kaos during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
"Yes."
Kaos nodded.
Facing Zhu Biao, he had special respect because Zhu Biao had qualities that were different from other princes.
The prince in front of him is the absolute heir to the position of future emperor of this country.
With this knowledge, Kaos became more certain about staying in the Ming Dynasty.
Ming Dynasty is strong enough, and its future successor is also very clear.
Such a country will definitely be stable for a long time.
As an outsider, at least he would not be involved in any inexplicable conflict for the throne.
Stability is what Kaos wants most.
Zhu Biao asked: "Kaos, did you come up with that Diophantus question?"
"Yes, His Royal Highness, it is me."
Kaos replied.
"Okay, I know that my father allows you to study in the main hall, and you get along well with my brothers, but I don't want you to have any other thoughts, do you understand?"
Zhu Biao said seriously.
He loves his younger brother extremely.
Although he knew very well that his father Zhu Yuanzhang might have said this warning a long time ago.
But what Zhu Yuanzhang said is still different from what he said.
"Kaos understands, His Royal Highness, don't worry."
Kaos immediately said respectfully.
He did not have the slightest contempt because Zhu Biao was just a prince. The characteristics displayed by Zhu Biao did not allow him to do so.
"Okay, what do you all want to hear? I'll tell you."
Zhu Biao's face turned into a peaceful look again, which was how he looked when facing his younger brothers.
"Brother, I want to know"
"Brother, Mr. Su has taught me"
Naturally, the princes would not miss this opportunity and asked Zhu Biao many questions.
Zhu Biao did not hide anything, except for those very sensitive contents, everything else was unreserved.
Kaos didn't ask, but he listened very seriously.
Time passed quickly, and the teachers in the main hall did not dare to disturb Zhu Biao and could only wait silently.
By the way, you can also listen to Professor Su Jing’s knowledge.
For a time, this became Zhu Biao's personal performance. Of course, the lectures were all taught by Su Jing.
From industrial theory to the spread of light, from market regulation to the role of force
The things Su Jing taught Zhu Biao were very numerous and complex. Zhu Biao studied seriously and reviewed his notes frequently. Speaking of it, he was very organized and clear.
However, because it was just an empty theory, his brothers could only vaguely understand some of the things they said, and could not truly understand their connotations.
But this does not prevent them from listening carefully.
The more Kaos listened, the more shocked he became.
What Zhu Biao told made him sigh with admiration that the Ming Dynasty had such advanced research and theories.
Much of it, he was sure, was very new knowledge even in Rome.
The only thing that made him happy was that Zhu Biao didn't talk much about mathematics. At least Rome was far ahead in mathematics and was not necessarily worse than Ming Dynasty.
The teacher in charge of teaching in the main hall frowned.
They couldn't believe that Su Jing's daily teachings to Zhu Biao turned out to be these "deviant ways".
Don’t you even learn the sacred Confucian classics and the words of sages?
The prince studies these all day long, isn't he going astray?
