Steam Daming: Stop calling me to supervise the country

Chapter 218 Enlightenment for the common people in the world

The matter of the Prince of Zhujiang County was abuzz, the court officials were complacent, Zhu Zhanchang was imprisoned in the Zongren's mansion, and Hushang Palace, on the order of the Crown Princess, sent him a meal every three or five times and asked him to open meat.

At first it was once every five days, then it became three days, and then one day after that.

Zhu Zhanchang was locked in the Zongren's mansion, and the things outside did not stop. The concubine of the crown had passed her birthday, which would cause trouble, so the concubine made it easy. In the past, he did not let the ladies who often came to the palace Come, just let a few good sisters come over, those ladies also understand that this time they have offended the crown princess firmly.

Taking advantage of the birthday, the crown princess and Zhu Xi said a few good words about Zhu Zhanchang, but Zhu Xi just smiled and did not say to let Zhu Zhanchang out earlier.

The crown prince has been sick these days and has not been out of the house. This is to carry out the strike to the end.

The prince went on strike, and things didn't go well. Zhu Di couldn't find anyone who could help him supervise the country. One thing to say, Zhu Gaochi supervises the country, which is better than what he did when he was there. The main reason is that Zhu Gaochi doesn't do things. , everything is based on stability, he is also at ease in the front line, and leaves it to others to ensure that he will make some moths for himself, and it will be difficult to worry about the end.

On a snowy afternoon, the emperor came to the Zongren Mansion. At this time, it had been more than a month since Zhu Zhanchang was imprisoned, and it was approaching the New Year.

When the door opened, Zhu Zhanchang thought it was Hu Shanwei coming, Ben was smiling, but when he saw Zhu Di, he immediately knelt back in front of the ancestral tablet.

Zhu Di didn't speak. He first walked to the ancestral tablet, lit incense and worshipped, and put the incense in the altar before turning around and looking at Zhu Zhanchang.

"Have you thought about it for more than a month?"

"Returning to the grandfather's words, the grandson has reflected on a lot. It is indeed wrong to beat people. Now I have come to a painful conclusion. I plan to wait for the sect's mansion to go out and go back to Guangzhou mansion. The grandson still has to go back and change his temper. Grandpa, if you don't send Chen Yun to Guangzhou House together, you can supervise your grandson's words and deeds, and the grandson will think about it."

The attitude of admitting mistakes is as good as ever, but Zhu Di glared at him: "Let Chen Yun go to Guangzhou House, he may not know how he died, are you admitting mistakes?"

"Grandpa Huang, grandson really knows wrong."

Can Zhu Di still not hear his resentment?This is going to go home. Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Zhanchang's father and son do not strike, and he is also very embarrassed.

"You really still blame your grandfather. Although I am the emperor, I can't go against the world. What you have done is really too much."

"Grandson doesn't dare."

Zhu Di also knew that it was useless to talk about this matter again, and this matter had come to an end.

Zhu Di no longer talked about this matter, but said: "The Northern Expedition has almost been decided. I divided the desert into eighteen declaring chiefs, and the news will be sent out tomorrow. At the same time, I also plan to go west from Jiayuguan to incorporate the Chagatai Khanate into the territory, connect the Silk Road, connect the Timurid Empire, and go east to the sea to go to Dongying."

Zhu Di's ambitions were even bigger than he thought. He started a war on three sides at one time, and the northern expedition went in from the west and the east went out.

Zhu Zhanchang keenly sensed something was wrong, Zhu Di was anxious, very anxious, why is this?

Because he ran out of time, he couldn't wait.

If he is 40 years old, he can spend five years fighting the desert, another three years fighting the Western Regions, and then he can deal with Japan at any time. The thriving Ming Dynasty is the most powerful day in history, but unfortunately he is now 60 years old.

"Grandpa Huang is too risky to fight on three sides." A presumptuous person like Zhu Zhanchang would not make such a choice.

"I can talk about it later, but the Chagatai Khanate is also a remnant of the Yuan Dynasty. I want the territory of the Ming Dynasty to be comparable to the prosperous times of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and the road to the Western Regions must be connected. Two years ago, the great Khan of the Chagatai Khanate lost his son and horse. , Wei Si won and ascended the throne of Chagatai Khan. According to reports, he is attacking the Timurid Empire in the west. At this time, it is a rare opportunity to make him worry about things."

Zhu Di knew the situation of the Chagatai Khanate like the back of the hand.

The goal of Emperor Yongle was to be an emperor who surpassed Tang Zong and Han Wu throughout the ages. Although the Chagatai Khanate was at war, it was indeed very dangerous to go to war on two fronts.

"Then why does the emperor want to go out to Dongying?"

"The spies are here to report that Dongying has already built a steam warship, although it is not as advanced as my dynasty, but it is there after all, and it cannot be allowed to develop. National policy, what do you think?"

"Jiaozhi's heart is shaking, but the Dongying people are obviously more difficult to handle than Jiaozhi."

"Da Ming has strong ships and cannons in the naval battle. I am not worried now. I will order Zhang Xianqi to choose a suitable agent in the east, and wait for the battle in the northwest to be settled before making a decision."

Therefore, Zhu Di's current big goals are still the grasslands and the Chagatai Khanate. As for Dongying, it is in the plan, but it depends on the results of the battle between the two sides. If the war damage is too large, it is expected to be delayed.

"After the new year, I plan to let you go to the West and conquer the Chagatai Khanate. This is an unworldly feat. Would you like to go?" Zhu Di stated his purpose of coming to Zhu Zhanchang this time.

"My grandson is not good at military conquests, and it may be difficult for him to be a great leader. Let the eldest brother or the second brother go. By the way, the second brother's domain is in the west." Zhu Zhanchang rejected Zhu Di outright, and Zhu Di was obviously not surprised.

Zhu Di said: "I don't want you to go to war. I plan to let Gao Xu lead troops to fight the Chagatai Khanate. If Gao Xu can fight well, he should be able to."

"Grandpa Shengming."

Zhu Di sighed: "Hey, the two-front war is going to be fought inland, and the warships cannot be used, and the supplies on the front are too long. This battle is related to Daming's country. If it is defeated, Daming's vitality will be greatly damaged. The king of the county will lose both when he loses, and when he wins, he should do his part.”

Zhu Zhanchang originally planned to refuse again, but he said everything about the glory and the loss, and the tone was not tough, and he said it. Grandpa, is father feeling better?"

"I chatted with him yesterday, and my body is much better." Zhu Di thought about what he said to him.

"Then the grandson can rest assured. What do you need the grandson to do, grandfather? The grandson's ability is limited, but if he can do it, he will not refuse."

"You, guard the country for me."

"Grandpa Huang, the grandson does not dare to overstep, the father's health is getting better, the eldest brother, the second brother and the third brother are all there, so it is not the grandson's turn to carry such a heavy burden."

"Are you arrogant? This time there is going to be a two-front war, and the supervision of the country will be divided into two directions. Shuntian Prefecture has to take care of the northern expedition. On the west side, I am going to let you and Gao Xu go together. You sit in the rear and take care of everything. You have the final say, everything depends on the situation, and the troops of the Northwest Division are all under the control of you and Gao Xu."

I rely on this idea. No wonder I can find a way to let me unload the troops of the four southern vassals. If I don't unload it, I really have the power, and I even poured dirty water on Zhu Zhanchang to ruin his momentum. , This emperor's power is playing yo-yo.

"Also, Gao Xu has always been at odds with your father. Gao Xu is good at fighting, but your father is very patient with him. I understand that Gao Xu still has certain thoughts. You have to look after Gao Xu for your father, you understand. I mean?"

Wow, there is no way to refuse what I said. This is a favor for helping your own father. The relationship between the second uncle and your father is well known. If it is not true, it is a bit unfilial.

Zhu Di really played all the ministers and grandchildren with applause. This emperor is really a bit tired, and he has to take care of so many things.

People need to use it, but also guard against it, and it has to be his own grandfather. You should not be the leader and who should be the leader.

"There is also the Chagatai Khanate in the northwest, and I will cross the ancestral system and directly make you king. If you want, the Chagatai Khanate will be counted as yours."

This nonsense is unbelievable. Zhu Di told King Ning that he shared the world, can he take it seriously?And he went to Chagatai Khanate with Zhu Gaojiu, and Zhu Gaojiu didn't even have any soup to eat meat by himself?Or did you say this to Zhu Gaojiu?
The emperor, the emperor, really likes to play with everyone in the applause, the same for the son, and the same for the grandson. Perhaps only in this way can the emperor have a sense of security, the feeling of mastering everything.

He is Long Live, the Son of Heaven, and the loneliest person. He is so lonely that he cannot trust anyone, even his own children and grandchildren. Everyone has their own minds.

"Since Grandpa Huang trusts me, then I will go, but I also have a request, please allow Grandpa Huang."

"You said."

Zhu Di thought that he would want something, some power, some places, even some official positions, gold and silver, his favorite beauty, exotic princesses and these things.

But unexpectedly, Zhu Zhanchang stood respectfully, like a literati scholar, like a jinshi who just passed the imperial examination, and he saluted Zhu Di.

"Grandpa Huang, grandson still wants to speak for the book [Origin]. If the northern expedition to the west is a big victory, I implore the grandfather to allow a hundred schools of thought to contend and allow grandson to open schools like Nanhai University in various places in Daming, and transfer new-style knowledge spread the word."

"In Yingtianfu and Shuntianfu, follow the example of Guangzhou Fu's three-year compulsory education, enlighten the world, allow books like [Origin] to be published, and make the culture of Daming flourish."

what can I do?I'm just a car mechanic, do I teach you how to fix cars?What I can do is to fight for a chance for the people of the world to enter the school, and a chance to open their eyes to the world.

The steamship will take you all over the world, and at the same time, your vision, your knowledge, has to keep up with the times.

Except for the late Ming Dynasty, Chinese civilization has always been at the forefront of the world. The reason is that, except for the Manchu and Qing Dynasty, the culture of oppression and slavery prevailed to the peak. Then Daming will eventually die.

Zhu Di looked at Zhu Zhanchang seriously, turned around and walked out the door, and the voice came: "I'm sure."

In the darkness of the night, Zhu Di laughed at himself: "He is begging for my life for the people of the world, for the people of the world..."

People compromise, even emperors.

he.

can not wait anymore.
