After five years of teaching support, Daming became an empire on which the sun never sets.

Chapter 44
"Thank you, Teacher Qin, for the explanation!" After a long time, Zhu Biao remembered to salute Qin Yu and said respectfully.

He is grateful to Qin Yu from the bottom of his heart.

In addition to gratitude, there is also admiration from the bottom of my heart: this teacher Qin is really different from all Confucian teachers. He didn't teach anything on the first day, but he untied my knot in understatement.

He penetrated into my heart at a glance, and saw what was stagnated in the deepest part of my heart.Then, with the same conversation as spring breeze and rain, I solved the knot in my heart.

This is the true example of a teacher!
Like a strict teacher and like a loving father!
This kind of education, Song Lian can't, and no other great Confucian can't.

They only know how to strictly educate their students, let the students read the boring Four Books and Five Classics every day, and only take [-] days off each year, completely treating the students as a tool for reading.Moreover, he will not talk to the students at all, and he does not know the inner thoughts of the students.

They are tools for teaching, and students are tools for reading.

And beside Teacher Qin, everyone works together, like good friends, very cordial.

There is a world of difference between Mr. Qin and Song Lian.

"Mr. Qin is so extraordinary that he saw through us at once." Zhu Di and other princes also thought to themselves, "I thought he had no real ability when he was so young, but now it seems that our teacher Qin can be called well. It's unfathomable!"

Great!

No wonder he was able to squeeze Song Lian, Gao Qi, and other great Confucians out of the world.One person squeezed out the prince's master, the prince's young master, the prince's master, the prince's young master, and a group of teachers from the East Palace.

It's no wonder that the royal father must let us study under his sect, and his shot is extraordinary.

His education, though subtle and silent, nourishes all things.Make people invisible, influenced by him and educated by him.

"You guys can rest assured." Qin Yu said, "If Uncle Huang makes strict demands on you in the future, I will tell him. Therefore, at Teacher Qin's place, you can relax your mind completely and focus on learning scientific and cultural knowledge with the teacher."

"Thank you, Teacher Qin." The four princes were very grateful when they heard this.

Immediately, they also felt relieved.For them, although the palace is prosperous, it is like a cage.But when he arrived at Teacher Qin's place, he could fly freely like a bird out of a cage.

"Uncle Xu, you and I are cutting the wood together." At this time, Zhu Di walked to Xu Da's side again and said.When Zhu Yuanzhang attacked Chen Youliang, Zhu Di went to Xu Da's army, so the two were very familiar with each other.

Xu Da even taught him martial arts by himself.

"Good good!" Xu Da laughed loudly, "It's really a good son of the village chief, we can go hunting together in the mountains in the future. You haven't forgotten the hunting skills we taught you before."

"No, no." Zhu Di said.

A few teachers and students worked together in the courtyard of the Lu family ancestral hall, and they were happy.

……

On Qin Yu's side, he had a good time with a group of students and enjoyed the teaching life in the pastoral landscape.

On the other side of Ying Tianfu, there were dark clouds, and the mountains and rain were about to come and the wind filled the building.

Zhu Yuanzhang's will to ask the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs to sell his calligraphy for 500 million taels, and if he can't sell it, he will be killed is like a heavy bomb falling on the surface of a lake, and every stone stirs up thousands of waves.

It made all the ministers worried, as if they were in the abyss, and their hearts were full of panic.

They are all facing unprecedented tests, and they are all secretly thinking about countermeasures.

……

Prime Minister's House.

"The door is closed, and no one can come in without the old man's instructions." Left Prime Minister Li Shanchang said sternly to his servants, and then walked into the inner hall with Hu Weiyong, who had just arrived at the house.

"The students have met the benefactor." Hu Weiyong first gave a big gift to Li Shanchang.

"Hu Weiyong, you are your own, and you don't need to be more polite here." Li Shanchang said with a heavy face, straight to the point, "What do you think of His Majesty's will today?"

Turning his head to look, on his right was a banner with the words 'patriotic businessman'.

"Please tell me your opinion first?" Hu Weiyong said.

"The old man feels that His Majesty is taking this opportunity to rectify corruption in the court." Li Shanchang said, "If anyone can get 500 million taels of silver, it will be a catastrophe in the end, because the emperor's words can't be sold at all. The ministers have to pay for it themselves. Therefore, the old man feels that if he sells it, he will lose his head, but if he fails to sell it, he will live in peace."

In fact, Li Shanchang has long seen that Emperor Zhu's will is definitely not that simple, but he did not say it, but was deliberately hiding it.He has now handed over most of the power of Zhongshu Province to Hu Weiyong, and he is a leisurely person.Therefore, he has always left everyone the impression of being old, incompetent and inactive, keeping a low profile and keeping a low profile.

In fact, if he can get into the first position of Zhu Yuanzhang's civil service group, he will definitely not be an incompetent person.It was he who proposed the original plan to delay the proclamation of the king, and he had great wisdom.

"My benefactor, the students don't think so." Hu Weiyong said, "If the emperor wants to use this method to uncover corruption, the method is a bit clumsy, and the amount of 500 million taels is obviously too large."

"Since Your Majesty is not trying to find out corruption, it is to enrich the treasury. In the early days of the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, there are many places where money is used. In this way, the ministers can use their own properties to enrich the treasury and show their loyalty to His Majesty. Is it feasible? "Li Shanchang said, "Although my Li family's property is not much, it should be barely enough."

Li Shanchang's family is very rich. Since he followed Zhu Yuanzhang, members of the family have also been promoted along the way.His younger brother Li Cunyi became Taipu Sicheng's younger brother Li Shanxin and became a big official in the northwest.It can be said that one person has attained the Tao and ascended to heaven, and the Li family has gradually formed the prototype of a big family.Moreover, he also made good friends with many nobles from Huaixi, so it would not be difficult to spend 500 million taels.

"Emperor, I'm afraid that doing this will anger the upper body." Hu Weiyong said, "In the past, it was more common for officials to take money and turn it over to the treasury to show their loyalty, and they would also be rewarded by the emperor. But this time, the situation is obviously different."

"You can't pay for it yourself, you can't sell it, and the emperor will blame it..." Li Shan said long, "Although it won't be decapitated, it's inevitable to be dismissed from office. Hu Weiyong, what do you think?"

"Students think that we should look at the situation before we talk about it." Hu Weiyong said, "In the face of major events, we must first stabilize ourselves and not be in a hurry. Let's see how the emperor sold the 5000 million taels before we talk about it. There is still time .”

"You're right." Li Shan breathed a sigh of relief, and said again: "Wei Yong, do you think that above the court, would someone really be stupid enough to pay for His Majesty's words?"
