Chapter 1102 Preparing for a "Private Meeting"

When he came out of Chen Ju's house, Gao Pragmatic was in a much better mood than before, and all his doubts had been resolved. Although he received an "errand" that was completely inexplicable and he didn't know where to start, after all, his head looked like It's solid enough to be celebrated.

Of course, on the surface, he still had a serious face, even painful, so that as soon as he went out, Gao Mo lowered his voice nervously and asked, "Master, is something bad? Do you want to inform Jian Xinzhai and Tianjin Port?" On the other hand, are you ready for the 'Eh Plan'?"

Of course, "Eh Plan" is not the "Eh", it is actually called "A Plan", which is the escape plan that Gao Yushi started to arrange several years ago.This plan has basically been completed after Annan settled down.

The original premise of this plan was that in the event of a huge setback in the highly pragmatic reform, which has caused his own personal safety to be in great danger, the Jinghua department will use his strength in the capital and its vicinity to take it out. Transfer quickly, and the destination is Annan.

The notice Gao Mo said was to see Xinzhai and Tianjin Port, and at the same time sent out cavalry escorts, and at the same time prepared sea ships to meet them.There's even a "password" for the notification itself.

As long as Jianxinzhai and Tianjin Port received an urgent report from the Ministry of Internal Affairs: "You may jump in the abyss, there is no blame", they must immediately deploy according to the previous plan, but they don't know what this deployment is for.

The sentence "If you jump in the deep, there is no blame" comes from "Book of Changes·Qian Gua": "Nine Fourth: If you jump in the deep, there is no blame." The "Book of Changes" is the scripture for high-level practical examinations.

The original meaning of this sentence is also simple, that is to say, the dragon sometimes soars and sometimes dives, and what happens depends on the form at that time.

And if it is related to the context, it is: September [-]th, (the dragon) or jumping in the abyss, no blame.In the ninth five, the flying dragon is in the sky, and it is beneficial to see adults.The ninety-four dragons were not clearly pointed out because of the appearance of two kinds of dragons.One is that the dragon in the [-] Fourth Movement leaped to the ground ahead of time and did not reach its reality, so it did not become a dragon weapon.The second is that he has become a dragon, but because there is a real dragon in the Ninth Five-Year Plan, he is in the right position and in the right time, so he can only jump into the abyss and not fight, so as to fulfill the Ninth Five-Year Dragon.

Therefore, even if it is just a "password" to launch an escape plan, it also has hidden meanings: the former "leave the ground ahead of time, and fail to become a dragon weapon" means that the reform has failed and must go; the latter means that the reform may have succeeded, but the "Ninth Five-Year Plan The real dragon couldn't tolerate him, so he could only leave.The corresponding possibility of this one is equivalent to "cooking a rabbit to a dead dog", but Gao Yushi does not intend to be a dead dog.

The main person responsible for this escape plan is Gao Mo, and from Gao Mo's point of view, the current situation is that the emperor may suspect that his master has an affair with the widowed Princess Eldest Princess. With such a heavy expression on his face, it was obvious that the situation was going badly, so of course he had to consider the worst case and respond quickly enough.

But Gao Yushi's reaction completely exceeded Gao Mo's expectations. Although Gao Yushi's face still looked like he was about to die generously, his tone was very relaxed: "I suspect that someone may be watching me day and night. This dead face is It’s for those people to see, you don’t have to panic, I’m fine, I’m fine.”

Gao Mo reacted quickly, and immediately understood Gao Yushi's meaning, and with a sad face, nodded his head in a submissive manner, as if he had been taught a few words just now, and said in his mouth: "Got it, master. But since the master suspects that someone is watching, do you want to ask Master Tang and Master Biao for help..."

Master Tang and Master Biao refer to Gao Wuben and Wang Zhizhen in Jinyiwei. These two took a high-practical east wind and got a ride with Chen Ju and Chen Dugong, and they got along very well in Jinyiwei in a short time. Shui Qi, each has a group of people under his command.Especially Wang Zhizhen, who is very good at dealing with affairs, and has mastered a lot of "jianghu power"-in fact, it is the power of gangs, gangsters and the like. [The "Da Xing" of the Ming Dynasty has been explained in Volume [-] of this book. ]
Don't look at Wang Zhizhen in the eyes of Gao Yushi as just a cousin who relies on his care. In fact, his status is very important in the "Jianghu". Except for super gangs like the Cao Gang who can't be moved easily, ordinary gangs Seeing him is really only for kneeling and licking.

But Gao Wushi didn't intend to use them now, he just shook his head slightly: "The two of them have someone available, but the people from Jinyiwei... Hehe, there is an enemy among us, and there may be an enemy among us. Especially this time, use Their people, I’m afraid they might as well not use them.”

Gao Mo understood, and his complexion sank a little: "Master means..."

However, Gao Wushi didn't speak, and got into the sedan chair directly.

Gao Mo was thinking about what the master meant when a high-practical voice came from the sedan chair: "The Ministry of Internal Affairs will send someone to investigate, but be careful, because Dongchang may also intervene. You should neither conflict with them, nor Join hands with them... If Dongchang moves this time, it must be ordered by the emperor, not Chen Ju's arrangement."

"Yes, master, I understand." Gao Mo replied.

If it is Chen Ju's arrangement, the Ministry of Internal Affairs can of course join hands with Dongchang to investigate, because Chen Ju has already been tied to a rope with Gao Yushi, and unless he intends to involve himself in it, he will never sell it. Highly pragmatic.

However, if Dongchang only investigates under the order of the emperor, the emperor may temporarily select some people to join in. If the Ministry of Internal Affairs joins forces, at least some of the strength of the Ministry of Internal Affairs will be exposed, which is very inappropriate.

Different from fighting with Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao in the past, with Gao Wuzhen's current status and power, he will not ask about too specific things at this time, but only needs to explain the various tasks, and he will be cool and unrestrained After the ground and other information is collected, it is good to analyze it comprehensively.

However, after Gao Yushi returned to the No. [-] Scholar, he didn't really feel free and easy, because when he thought of the task Zhu Yijun gave him, he felt that his head was as big as a bucket.

It is not difficult to make a little girl happy, there are so many methods throughout the ages.If you look at the president's article that was popular in later generations, you will know that the "needs" of girls are nothing more than being handsome and wealthy. If there is some special style, that would be even better.

These things are not lacking in high pragmatism.

It's hard to say whether he is handsome or not, but at least people have admired him for a few years, so there must be some bonuses; there is no need to ask about Duojin, he is now even qualified to ridicule the treasury of the Ministry of Finance; as for style? ... He is the champion of the six poems. If he really wants to play, he is afraid that he will not be able to play a flower?
But right now there are three troubles: one is that this matter is not "free love" now, it is almost an errand for Gao Yushi, and his subjective initiative is really not enough; If you go to the "private meeting with the princess" again, it will be a bit short-sighted; third, if you really do this, what should you say when you face Huang Zhiting, who has worked so hard to lead an expedition thousands of miles away?

Especially the last one is the most embarrassing for Gao Yushi.

Although Huang Zhiting is a woman of this era, maybe she will not have any overreactions because of this, but the lack of overreactions is just because of the influence of her education, which doesn't mean she really doesn't mind.

Gao Yushi never believes that there are women who are "not jealous". The so-called not jealous is nothing more than a refusal to show jealousy.Think about it in another way, would any man be willing to have two men serve one wife?This principle is interlinked.

Of course, the social reality of Daming is here. Even if Gao Yushi took a concubine a day, at most he would be talked about in private. Even if Huang Zhiting married him, he would probably not be entangled in this issue. It's not easy for Kan to pass.

After thinking for a long time with a sad face, Gao Wushi suddenly came up with an idea: maybe it doesn't need to be like Zhu Yijun thought?

Princess Yongning is actually just a 16-year-old girl, and she grew up in a deep palace, so she has no ghost love experience at all.In addition, judging from her previous performance, she should still attach great importance to such things as etiquette and fame. Maybe she just admires herself, and has never thought about any relationship beyond etiquette?
If it's just being a confidant, it doesn't seem to affect anything?
Thinking about it this way, Gao Yushi had a reason to convince himself, and couldn't help but feel much more comfortable.Anyway, Zhu Yijun just asked to make his sister happy, and didn't say what he had to do.

So how can we make her happy?At this time, a normal little girl would probably like to spend more time with her ideal man, doing whatever she wants, even if it's just chatting, she would be very happy.

But in this way, the problem turns back to the second problem: it's not easy to meet now!

If I continue to go to the palace and get "revealed" again, then it will be... eh, wait, why do I have to go into the palace, why can't she just come out by herself?
As a senior official of the third rank, I can't pretend to be a disguise, but if she comes out of the palace, I can sneak out as a court lady, eunuch or something like that!

As soon as the reverse thinking was turned on, Gao Wushi suddenly realized: Although the person standing in the dark must be watching me now, his eyes must be focused on me. Regarding the situation in the palace, he will spy on Huang Mengyu and Chen Chen secretly. At most, add a few palace gates and the like, but there should be no spare energy to monitor Princess Yongning herself-this is too taboo.

And let's take a step back, even if he really has the energy and courage to even find out that Princess Yongning sneaked out of the palace, so what?You dare to expose my story that I went to the Changchun Palace to meet the princess secretly, but you dare to reveal the princess' story that she sneaked out to meet me in secret?
This nature is completely different!
The former is me being pragmatic and bold, while the latter...that's a royal scandal!

Dare to disclose this information, isn't it the same as forcing Zhu Yijun to dig three feet into the ground and kill him with dead hands!

Since the mastermind behind the scenes can see that my high pragmatism is really better than other courtiers, it lies in the absolute trust of the emperor, so his "precision strike" this time is aimed at the word "trust".Correspondingly speaking, with his level, it must be impossible not to know that blasting the princess is tantamount to asking for a dead end.

Now that I have cleared my mind, it doesn't mean that I should send someone to contact the princess to ask her to come out right now. After all, although Gao Wushi has been free in recent days, he is not really free enough to chat with a little girl every day. Therefore, it is still necessary to prepare for the business to be discussed before contacting.

At present, the main business between him and Princess Yongning is the matter of the Princess Fund, which is the so-called Ladies Academy.

This school, according to the highly pragmatic plan, is actually the "strengthening women's class" of Jinghua Craftsman School.

When Princess Yongning mentioned this issue yesterday, Gao Wushi was unprepared, so he also put forward some basic suggestions, such as adding subjects such as women's red and silk reeling on the basis of literacy and reading.But after he left the palace, he thought about it and felt that he could add some other items.

For example, the principle of textile machinery.

Since Gao Yushi knew the basic principles of the spinning jenny, the tussah silk industry in Liaodong has already used a replica of the spinning jenny, but also because Gao Yushi only knew the basic application of the shuttle on the spinning machine, so This is a very promising thing, and there is not much possibility of progress at present.

Jinghua's actual chief scientist Zhu Zaiyu is powerful, but one's energy is limited after all, and there are still many things waiting for him to study further.In addition, he was born as a prince's son, and he didn't know enough about the work of spinning, so Gao Yushi didn't put this matter into his work schedule.

Now Gao Yushi feels that it is better to add the principles of the spinning machine—including the application of the flying shuttle, etc. to the Ladies School, and take advantage of their frequent operation of related machinery to see if it can improve spinning and weaving. Here comes the lady inventor of machinery.

Gao Yushi did not travel to Europe, and it is impossible to gather those bigwigs who have promoted scientific and technological progress to serve him, so his current thinking can only be to cast a wide net, and whether there are fish depends on luck.However, according to the experience of later generations, no matter how low the proportion of geniuses is, as long as the net is large, they can still be obtained.

He is well aware that as a liberal arts student, he has a limited inventory, and he only knows some basic principles for many things. Whether it is specific development or improvement, in the final analysis, it depends on the talents of this era, so he founded the craftsman school.The same principle can of course be used in the Ladies' Academy.

If he really knows everything, why hasn't the Jinghua glass burning project produced a product he is satisfied with?Even the principle of the steam engine is very simple, why didn't he figure it out?
If you don't want to, you can't hear it.

If he knows the principle and can do it, then he also knows the principle of the internal combustion engine!But can it be done?Maybe in a dream.

There are many similar situations, such as the issue of building warships.

In his previous life, Gao Yushi was obsessed with the history of the age of great voyages for a period of time, and he also read some books about various types of sailing battleships. If he only talked about theory, he could even draw the profile of a three-deck battleship and the general outline of the hull. The design drawings came, but in fact, after the master craftsmen of Jinghua saw it, they directly told him that they couldn't make it now.

Therefore, the design and construction plan of the first, second, and third sailing battleships proposed by Gao Pragmatism were rejected by the shipyard, and in the end only two sailing cruisers were produced.

Because the shipyard told him that it is difficult to solve the keel problem of such a large battleship, not to mention that the battleship with three deck guns will definitely lead to a high center of gravity, too much shaking on the sea, which will lead to low artillery accuracy, etc. Problems, if these problems are not solved, building this kind of boat is a waste of those good wood.

Regarding the problem that the keel is too large, in fact, Gao Yushi had read a technical summary of splicing keels before, but because it was too professional, he didn't understand it at that time. He only knew that there was such a technology, but he didn't know how to do it. It will make the spliced ​​keel reach the strength of the whole keel.

Therefore, for such professional matters, he hopes that after extensive training of relevant talents, he can see if a few geniuses can emerge, instead of doing it himself.

The master leads the door, and the practice is in the individual.There are not many things he can directly help with. In the future, it will all depend on the cultivation of talents.

After sorting out the affairs of the Ladies' School, Gao Wushi felt that it is time to invite Her Highness the Princess for a private meeting...
