In Qi Taishi bamboo slips, in Jin Dynasty Dong Hu's pen.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Biao reacted immediately.
These are two historians who, even in the face of death, have adhered to their duties as chief historians without flinching.
When Su Jing mentioned these two people, she naturally expressed admiration for their perseverance.
Zhu Biao was silent, thinking of his father Zhu Yuanzhang.
If he had followed his personality, he would probably kill them all.
Both the Taishi bamboo slips and Dong Hu's pen have not been handed down.
Thinking about it this way, the "reporter" Su Jing mentioned is indeed difficult to exist.
However, it doesn't matter if you set your pursuit lower.
…
Forbidden City.
Kunning Palace.
Queen Ma looked sad. It had been more than half a month since Zhu Biao left.
There hasn't been any news yet, and as a mother, she is really anxious.
"I wonder how Biao'er is doing? It's getting cold. It's time to put on more clothes."
"How's the food? Do you always eat cold food?"
"With Mr. Su and Ying'er here, there should be no problem."
…
Queen Ma was making shoes in her hands and kept mumbling.
"Sister, sister!"
Zhu Yuanzhang's urgent voice came.
"Chongba, why are you here free?"
Queen Ma said calmly without even raising her head.
Her thoughts were all on Zhu Biao.
Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile: "Sister, there is a letter from Biao'er. He just arrived at Jining Mansion and wrote a letter. It has only been three days since I wrote the letter."
"What!"
Queen Ma immediately put down her shoes and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang was seen shaking a letter in his hand, with a smile on his face.
"What are you doing standing there in a daze? Quickly take it apart and take a look!"
Queen Ma urged.
In the past half month, she had been too anxious and worried about Zhu Biao's situation.
"Okay."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and opened the envelope directly.
The couple immediately read Zhu Biao's letter. Because it was written during the trip, it was not very long.
Zhu Biao briefly explained the situation during the journey. He did not encounter any danger and the journey was very smooth.
Zhu Biao briefly talked about the matters in Jiaxiang County.
I also wrote down all Su Jing’s suggestions.
In general, this is a letter to report safety, and there is only so much content.
"It's fine, everything is fine. You're all in Jining Mansion now. It seems like there's still a chance to come back before the end of the year."
Queen Ma breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "It's hard to say. Su Jing's destination is Laizhou Mansion, which is only half the distance. There will be things to do after arriving, so it will probably take some time."
Zhu Yuanzhang did not have high expectations for coming back before the end of the year.
Although there are still two months until the end of the year.
"You have such a crow's mouth, you can't say anything nice!"
Queen Ma glared at Zhu Yuanzhang, she was quite unhappy.
She didn't want Zhu Biao to celebrate the New Year in Shandong at all.
"Yes, yes! Girl, I was wrong."
Zhu Yuanzhang immediately admitted his mistake, and then changed the topic and said: "This piece of Yongcheng is somewhat interesting. I am not a bad emperor. He has the demeanor of my past. You can consider promoting him."
During Zhu Yuanzhang's early uprising, some of his soldiers went to prey on the common people and cause trouble.
Don't cover it up, deal with it directly.
Being crisp and clear can leave a good impression on the people.
"What do you mean by your demeanor back then? You would put a lot of gold on your face. You were a well-mannered and principled person."
Empress Ma couldn't help but say something about Zhu Yuanzhang again.
Although what happened back then, Queen Ma was actually a person who experienced it firsthand.
"Yeah!"
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't refute, and just followed Queen Ma. Whatever you say will be taken.
He is very experienced in coaxing his wife.
"By the way, Chongba, it's time for the new issues of the people's newspapers and book newspapers to be released. How are the sales?"
Queen Ma suddenly asked Zhu Yuanzhang.
The last time the two of them made a bet, after the separation of the people's newspapers and book newspapers, whether the sales of the people's newspapers would decrease.
"Sister, you are really right!"
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "The sales volume of this people's newspaper has almost no change. It is still the same as it should be. It's really strange."
"I even asked people to inquire, and the number of readers who buy people's newspapers has basically not decreased."
The lethality of the Lower Riba people was far greater than Zhu Yuanzhang imagined.
Empress Ma said happily: "As expected, I said that the things Mr. Su makes cannot be sold poorly. Those scholars all say that they are awe-inspiring and righteous, but in fact, they just like to pretend."
Regarding Su Jingdao's trust, Queen Ma can be ranked high.
The reality was just as Queen Ma expected.
"This kid Su Jing is still good at doing things. For example, Zhang Yongcheng's matter was directly published in the people's newspapers. It is another wave of positive publicity for Ming Dynasty. It's really good!"
Zhu Yuanzhang said with great satisfaction.
The development of this matter now makes him more and more satisfied.
"Then Chongba, have you thought about when you will reveal your identity to Mr. Su?"
Queen Ma asked Zhu Yuanzhang.
Su Jing is doing more and more things, and her influence on Ming Dynasty is also growing.
If this continues, even if Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't tell him, he may be able to guess his identity.
Active showdown and passive showdown are two different things.
Queen Ma is definitely more inclined to Zhu Yuanzhang and Su Jing to take the initiative to disclose their identities.
After all, Su Jing's mood must be taken into consideration.
"Let's discuss this matter next year."
Zhu Yuanzhang said with a slightly gloomy expression.
In fact, he didn't fully think about it. Now Su Jing has gone to Shandong again, at least next year.
"Chongba, I won't say anything more. Just be clear about Mr. Su's matters."
Empress Ma did not force Zhu Yuanzhang too much.
She is always very accurate in determining the appropriateness of various things.
"Ok, I know."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.
Queen Ma then said: "Chongba, I heard that many ministers in the court are begging you for that magnifying glass, right?"
"Sister, you are really well-informed."
Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile: "Last time I used it for Shan Chang and Cui Liang, and then they spread the word and asked me for a lot."
"I directly asked the Ministry of Industry to make a lot of them, and I'm about to distribute them. The things Su Jing makes are easy to use."
A small magnifying glass also caused the ministers of the Ming Dynasty to chase after it.
There is no way, there are too many old people and too many people with bad eyesight.
"Although they are all after Mr. Su's things now, when Mr. Su actually appears in front of them, they may not know what their attitude will be."
Queen Ma said calmly.
Empress Ma also had her own views on the situation in the court.
Su Jing's talent is very strong! Very powerful!
The Ming Dynasty benefited a lot, but to the ministers above the court, Su Jing was also a threat.
"It's good. These guys are doing whatever they want based on their status as heroes. It's good to have Su Jing to control them."
Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile.
Regardless of the fact that Zhu Yuanzhang was the founder of the Ming Dynasty, he was a man of great talent and great strategy. He was a man who raised his arms and no one dared not follow him.
But in fact, the situation in Ming Dynasty is complicated.
As the emperor, he will also balance the forces of all parties. Some things are not so easy to do.
There are so many meritorious officials who supported him to the throne, and they cannot be thrown away just by changing hands.
If Su Jing can enter the court, things will become interesting.
"Chongba, that's all you have on your mind!"
Queen Ma rolled her eyes at Zhu Yuanzhang but did not refute.
…
Sincerity House.
Liu Bowen has been paying close attention to the recent changes in civilian newspapers.
"Sir, this is amazing. Now there is another book and newspaper. I heard that it will be published in other states and capitals, and more and more people are reading it."
The housekeeper said to Liu Bowen.
When he and Liu Bowen were discussing before, Liu Bowen mentioned that the affairs of the people's newspapers would change again.
Nowadays, there are more and more changes.
Liu Bowen just looked at the people's newspapers and books and newspapers, and said calmly: "If there are people's newspapers and books and newspapers on sale in the future, remember to buy a copy."
"Yes, sir."
The butler nodded.
Mr. Su, I'm afraid this matter is your fault again.
Liu Bowen thought in his heart that now that he was at home all the time, with these people's newspapers and books and newspapers, he could have a simple understanding of the affairs of the Ming Dynasty.
You can learn about the world without leaving home.
This is something that many scholars dream of.
Now it is such a small people's newspaper that has settled this matter.
Su Jing's move, in Liu Bowen's eyes, was a matter of eternal benefit.
"It's a pity that Mr. Su will eventually join the court."
Liu Bowen said to himself.
From Liu Bowen's perspective, Zhu Yuanzhang's various actions now were all to prepare Su Jing for entering the court.
After the people's newspaper really spread, it immediately launched a wave of propaganda.
Su Jing's name can be heard throughout the Ming Dynasty immediately.
When the time comes, who in the court would dare to dissent?
In the court of the Ming Dynasty, there were three parties competing for power.
Li Shanchang represents the Huaixi Group, while Liu Bowen himself represents the Zhedong Group, and the rest are the Neutral Group.
Now Liu Bowen has withdrawn from the stage, and the Zhejiang East Group, which was already weak, is now even more weak.
The power of Huaixi Group has become somewhat unstoppable.
However, the Ming Dynasty's borders were restless, and they urgently needed the civil and military ministers of the Huaixi Group to serve the Ming Dynasty. For the time being, they were given temporary support.
But Zhu Yuanzhang would not let this situation continue forever.
Someone has to break the situation and rebalance the power in the court.
The only person who can replace Liu Bowen's team is Su Jing.
The Huaixi Group is strong and united, and its power is constantly expanding. This has both advantages and disadvantages.
The advantage is strong cohesion, but the disadvantage is that outsiders cannot squeeze into the circle.
If Su Jing suddenly landed in the court, he must not be a member of the Huaixi Group.
As for whether he can represent the Zhejiang East Group, it is not important in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes.
As long as it can be balanced with the Huaixi Group, it will be fine.
The way of balance is the way of the emperor.
Liu Bowen had seen everything clearly at this moment, so he felt sorry for Su Jing.
That’s right, it’s a pity!
He was not worried that Su Jing would be at a disadvantage in such a fight. With Su Jing's wisdom, this trivial matter would definitely be handled well.
Liu Bowen felt regretful that Su Jing would be burdened by such a thing.
If Su Jing can concentrate on research, it will surely produce more results.
It's a pity that no one can stop what Zhu Yuanzhang wants to do, at least in the Ming Dynasty.
…
Inside the main hall.
Zhu Xi was still exchanging mathematics with Kaos, and the content of their discussion became more and more profound. Even Zhu Fan could not understand it.
As for the other princes, they were all in a state of confusion.
Of course, if they don’t understand, they won’t force themselves to listen. They just need to attend their own classes.
"Fifth Prince, you are truly the most talented child Kaos has ever seen, bar none."
As soon as he finished solving a problem, Kaos didn't hesitate to praise him.
Kaos was amazed by the intelligence displayed by Zhu Ru.
"No, Mr. Kaos, I just carefully studied what Master Su taught me."
Zhu Xi said modestly.
He never thought that it was because of how good he was, but because of Su Jing's good teaching.
"No no no!"
Kaos immediately said: "Mr. Su must be a very good teacher, but students are equally important. It is impossible to carve jade from a pebble."
Kaos acknowledged Su Jing's power.
But even so, Zhu Rui's talent still surprised him.
The two were talking to each other, and Zhu Xi, who was on the side, was a little puzzled: "Fourth brother, do you think the fifth brother is as smart as Kaos said?"
"Probably, I don't know very well."
Zhu Di answered truthfully, because he really didn't understand.
Compared to studying in the main hall, he was more curious about where Muying went?
Although Zhu Yuanzhang strictly asked Zhu Xi to keep Su Jing's trip to Shandong a secret.
But if you really want to guess, you can still guess something.
"I see, Mr. Su taught me well. If I could learn from Mr. Su, I should be the one praised by Kaos now."
Zhu Xi looked at Zhu Xi with a bit of envy in his words.
I have completely forgotten my experience of trying to learn mathematics but failing miserably.
Since Kaos arrived, his status has gradually improved.
Be honest and obedient, and you can still come up with some unusual things.
Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy about Kaos' knowledge. If Lao Zhu was happy, Kaos' life would be easier.
"maybe."
Zhu Di said casually, his mind was not on Zhu Xi.
On the contrary, the sixth brother Zhu Zhen said: "Second brother, didn't you say before that you couldn't learn it at all? You also told me not to imitate the fifth brother, otherwise no one else would be able to understand me when I talk all day long."
Children are always straightforward.
As soon as Zhu Zhen said this, Zhu Zhen's face suddenly turned ugly.
But it was hard for him to say anything to Zhu Zhen. Firstly, it was his younger brother, and secondly, he had indeed said such things.
"Fourth brother, you said fifth brother is back. What is eldest brother doing now?"
Zhu Xi asked Zhu Di: "Ask the fifth brother. The fifth brother said that the father did not let him speak."
The princes were very curious about what Zhu Biao was doing now, and the ministers in the court were also very curious.
"I don't know, but the eldest brother is definitely with Mr. Su now."
Zhu Di added: "Brother Muying should also be with them."
Muying!
When Zhu Xi heard this, his expression suddenly changed and he quickly asked: "Fourth brother, how do you know?"
