Feel relieved!
The moment he heard Chen Kan's flattery, the constipated expression on Zhu Di's face suddenly relaxed.
Listen to it, you can learn from thousands of miles away, and you can easily lay the foundation for the prosperity of Ming Dynasty for a hundred years.
This kid is too honest.
Let me just say that it was Ming Dynasty’s loss that my father didn’t pass the position to me.
Fortunately, fortunately, I was the one who finally brought Daming back to the right path.
Chen Kan stared at Zhu Di's expression as if he was having an orgasm, and a big question mark appeared in his heart again.
Could it be...
No!
Will not.
Zhu Di's goal is to be the emperor for eternity, how could he be so naive?
Chen Kan overturned his guess. He felt that Zhu Di suddenly mentioned these things to him, and he must have deep meaning.
But, what is the deep meaning?
Chen Kan was about to collapse.
Why are people in the Ming Dynasty so arrogant? Can't they just say something directly if they have something to say?
You have to beat around the bush.
so bad.
Chen Kan looked at Zhu Di's expression changes with some confusion, trying to find any clues on his face.
But...he was disappointed.
Zhu Di always looked like he had been constipated for a long time and suddenly had diarrhea.
So Chen Kan gave up decisively.
There are some things that cannot be understood simply because they cannot be understood.
No matter how deeply you think about it, it's just torture to yourself.
However, Zhu Di actually set up such a situation silently. It seems impossible to say that there was no expert help behind this.
Could it be Yao Guangxiao?
The face of the bald monk suddenly appeared in Chen Kan's mind.
If it was his handwriting, it would make sense.
After all, Dao Yan is the most secretly hidden Lao Liu in the entire Ming Dynasty. He is the one responsible for this kind of Lao Liu style conspiracy!
"A sneeze."
In Tianjie Temple, Daoyan, who was receiving a certain eminent monk, suddenly sneezed.
"Master Daoyan, the weather is getting colder, please take care of yourself."
An old monk wearing a brocade lanthanum cassock and holding a nine-ring tin staff greeted Dao Yan with concern.
Dao Yan rubbed his nose and smiled apologetically at the old monk: "No problem, I'd like to ask Master Yuantong to stay in the temple for a few days. The Water and Land Dharma Ceremony will not officially begin until three days later."
"Amitabha."
Zen Master Yuantong clasped his hands together and pronounced the Buddha's name, then followed a young novice into the residence of the monks in the temple.
at this time--
Chen Kan saw that the expression that poked the G-spot on Zhu Di's face finally subsided, and couldn't help but ask: "Where is your Majesty coming today?"
Here comes the topic.
After his vanity and sense of achievement were greatly satisfied, Zhu Di said seriously: "In addition to telling you that I am playing a big game of chess today, I also want to tell you that the big fish has taken the bait."
"Did the big fish take the bait?"
"Very good!"
Chen Kan's face suddenly became excited. Even Zhu Di said it was a big fish, so it must be a big fish.
Zhu Di nodded: "In three days, the action here will be left to you."
Chen Kan said: "Your Majesty, don't worry. I have been waiting for this day for a long time. This time, the grudge between me and the White Lotus Sect has been settled."
Seeing Chen Kan agree, Zhu Di nodded and said: "Although the layout this time is foolproof, in order to prevent accidents from happening, I will personally check it for you, so you just go ahead and do it."
"yes!"
At this moment, a warm current flashed through Chen Kan's heart.
He could feel the deep concern from Zhu Di's words.
Zhu Di takes care of things personally, which means that even if there is an accident on his side, he will wipe his butt clean for him.
This feeling of having someone to rely on is really refreshing.
So Chen Kan decided to reciprocate the favor.
He looked at Zhu Di and said with gratitude: "Your Majesty, I suddenly feel that your layout can be made more perfect."
Unexpectedly, as soon as Chen Kan said this, Zhu Di's face suddenly darkened: "You mean my layout is not perfect enough?"
Seeing Zhu Di's sudden change of expression, Chen Kan couldn't help but feel a little bit in his heart. Could it be that Zhu Di is a Virgo + blood type A + obsessive-compulsive disorder + a perfectionist?
Not good.
However, Chen Kan guessed wrong this time.
Although Zhu Di's face darkened, he still asked Chen Kan: "Let me know what you have in mind."
Virgo, excluded!
Chen Kan breathed a sigh of relief, and then expressed his thoughts: "Your Majesty wants to solve the shortcomings of the household registration system. Relying on the checks and balances of moving the capital is naturally the safest and most perfect way. However, there are two shortcomings in doing so.
The first one is that it is easy to breed tigers. Although Beijing is the foundation of His Majesty, no one can guarantee that thirty or fifty years later, the dogs trained by His Majesty will join forces with outsiders to bite the Ming Dynasty. "
This is not Chen Kanzai's unreasonable statement. The water transportation interest groups of the Grand Canal in history have explained everything, and water transportation is the product of Zhu Di's move to the capital.
After hearing Chen Kan's analysis, Zhu Di's expression, which had returned to normal, began to change again.
He has naturally considered these consequences, but there is no perfect strategy in the world.
If there are gains, there must be losses. All Zhu Di can do is choose the lesser of the two.
Noticing Zhu Di's expression, Chen Kan quickly pointed out the second shortcoming: "This second shortcoming is that it is easy for my Ming army to lose its combat effectiveness."
Zhu Di nodded: "I have already considered the two shortcomings you mentioned, but rather than letting the Ming Dynasty's household registration system continue to rot, I think it is necessary to make some trade-offs."
Chen Kan nodded in agreement: "I know what your Majesty means. As for the first shortcoming, my current idea is not mature enough, so I won't say it to taint your Majesty's ears."
The first disadvantage is that this move may create more interest groups.
Although the fighting between interest groups is more conducive to the court's control of them, the existence of too many interest groups will inevitably squeeze the living space of the people.
This problem is almost unsolvable at this stage.
And this is also the fundamental reason why Chen Kan pushed Zheng He to go to the West.
Only after Zheng He brought back a large amount of wealth from overseas could it be possible for these interest groups that were bent on sucking the blood of Ming Dynasty to turn their attention away from the suffering people.
Conflicts never disappear, but they can be transferred.
The endless wealth overseas is Chen Kan's final answer to the first problem.
But now Zheng He is still building ships, so it is a bit premature to talk about this issue.
"But regarding the second shortcoming, how to maintain the combat effectiveness of the army, I now have an idea, and I would like to ask your Majesty for your reference."
Chen Kan's eyes were very sincere, so sincere that Zhu Di couldn't bear to reject him.
Although Zhu Di didn't think that Chen Kan, a young man who had never been on the battlefield, had any insights in this area, he still decided to give Chen Kan a chance.
After all, Chen Kan was also doing good for Ming Dynasty.
What is good for Ming Dynasty is good for him as the emperor.
If it is good for him as the emperor, then he is a loyal minister.
Zhu Di considered himself a wise king, and of course he had to listen to the opinions of his loyal ministers.
"Tell me about it, I'll refer to it for you."
With Zhu Di's permission, Chen Kan organized the vocabulary in his mind and said slowly: "I think that the emperor Taizu established military status to ensure the military quality of Ming soldiers. The starting point was right, but the method was wrong."
"oh?"
Zhu Di sat up straight, then looked at Chen Kan intently, and said seriously: "What's wrong?"
Chen Kan said: "The mistake is that the father passes it on to his son, and the son passes it on to his grandson."
Zhu Di: "?"
"nonsense!"
Zhu Di thought that Chen Kan could have some unique insights, but he didn't expect that he was still talking about the same old things, even though he showed a lack of interest.
He already knew this problem, otherwise he wouldn't have thought about moving the capital.
Chen Kan smiled faintly and continued: "Your Majesty, if we change the method and bring together the grassroots generals in the army, and have specialized military experts give them comprehensive instruction instead of letting them be hereditary, Your Majesty, do you think it is possible to improve the overall combat effectiveness of the army?"
The military academy system was what Chen Kan planned to use to reform the Ming Dynasty's military system.
Historically, even though Zhu Di made five expeditions to Mongolia for large-scale military training, the military registration system established by Zhu Di completely collapsed in the 10th year of Xuande.
The Ming Dynasty thus started two hundred years of military recruitment.
However, in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the recruitment system had a fatal flaw, that is, the army did not listen to the deployment and only recognized money and not people.
There was a joke in later generations, saying that if the Ming army is not satisfied with its pay, it will be invincible if it is fully paid.
Therefore, the military recruitment system in the middle and late Ming Dynasty was not so much about recruiting soldiers as it was about mercenaries. Whoever gave the money did what they wanted.
Chen Kan took the lead in developing something like a military academy, which not only could train a large number of grassroots officers for the Ming Dynasty, but also educate them on loyalty and patriotism.
Over time, the generals who controlled the armies of the Ming Dynasty were all military academy students, which was able to avoid to a large extent the bad habit of the army recognizing money but not people.
As soon as Chen Kan finished speaking, Zhu Di seemed to have grasped something important and couldn't help but urge: "What do you mean?"
"Establishing the Ming Royal Military Academy and training the Emperor's disciples to fill various grassroots positions in the Ming army will not only maintain the combat effectiveness of the army, but also allow the grassroots generals in the army to develop bonds with the royal family. It is simply killing two birds with one stone. What do you think, Your Majesty?"
Chen Kan looked at Zhu Di with a smile, and saw Zhu Di's expression change from casual to surprised to ecstatic.
"It seems feasible?"
Zhu Di muttered to himself, and then murmured: "Why didn't I think of that?"
"Pa~"
Zhu Di suddenly slapped Chen Kan on the shoulder. The huge force made Chen Kan's thin body almost fall to his knees.
"Your Majesty, be gentle."
After receiving a slap, Chen Kan only felt that half of his body was numb.
Zhu Di withdrew his palm the size of a cattail fan with a bit of shame, but his face was filled with joy that he stepped on dog poop but found gold when he went out today.
"Why didn't I think of such a simple thing before?"
Chen Kan smiled and said nothing.
"I will return to the palace immediately and summon the officials to discuss this matter."
Zhu Di stood up and was about to leave, but when he walked out of the room, he turned to look at Chen Kan and said: "Boss Chen, please prepare a detailed report and submit it. I will send someone after the matter here is settled." Pick you up.”
