My uncle's name is Zhu Di

Chapter 263 The Beloved Father
Huang Guan looked up to the sky and lamented that he was a good six-headed leader and a gentle leader, but now he wanted to sell weapons and earn bloody money. He really didn't know where he had read the teachings of Confucius and Mencius all his life.
"Xu Jingchang, you have to compensate me!"

Xu Jingchang nodded quickly, "Old Taishan, just say, is it money or beautiful women? Give you whatever you want!"

Huang Guan was stunned for a long time, then suddenly wailed, "I want fame!"

Now Xu Jingchang was in a dilemma, "Father-in-law, look, if I had it, I wouldn't be stingy, but you just want what I don't have, you are making things difficult for others."

Huang Guan stared at him and slapped the table angrily, "This old man shouldn't be entangled with you."

When Xu Jingchang saw what his old father-in-law said, he sighed softly, "I know your old thoughts, so I won't embarrass you. I'd better choose Gao Ming for this job in the Imperial College of Peking!"

"and many more!"

Huang Guan interrupted Xu Jingchang, "What do you mean by Beiping Guozijian? Your Majesty agreed?"

Xu Jingchang smiled and said, "That's natural! Your Majesty ordered the establishment of the Beiping Imperial Academy...and this Imperial Academy also includes four schools."

"Four schools? What do they teach?"

Xu Jingchang said: "The first one is the clan school, which teaches those princes. In the future, the sons, grandsons, and great-grandsons of princes will all come to school."

"The second is the martial arts school. As long as it is aimed at the officials of the guards, it will also train military generals for the court in the future."

"The third is the Science Hall."

Huang Guan interrupted Xu Jingchang, "What is this for?"

"It means to learn by subject. In the past, the school taught the Four Books and Five Classics, the way of Confucius and Mencius, and thought that if you learned the sage's subtle words and righteousness, you would be able to go anywhere. This time is different. We recognize the difference in learning, pay attention to teaching students according to their aptitude, and give full play to their strengths... There are literature, History, arithmetic, astronomy, medicine, business, etc. For everyone, anyone who passes the examination can enroll."

Huang Guan was very interested, even a little eager to try.

It is really a pleasure to get the best talents in the world and teach them!
But he still has to maintain the reserve of his old father-in-law, "There are only three schools, and there is one more?"

"There is also a foreign school... mainly for Jurchen, Mongolia, North Korea, etc. Anyone who is willing to go to China and is willing to study and make progress can come here. And I also specifically ask His Majesty to agree that if you successfully complete your studies, you can award Daming's household registration becomes a citizen of Daming."

Huang Guan heard this.Finally he couldn't calm down, "Are you trying to educate the barbarians?"

"That's right, that's what it means!"

Huang Guan paused, barely suppressed his beating heart, and asked curiously: "Then how much are you going to invest? How much budget can the court give?"

Xu Jingchang said with a smile: "The budget depends on Xia Yuanji's side... But how many weapons and armors can be sold, the money can be used to run the school."

Huang Guan let out a sigh of relief, and suddenly became excited, "That... my son-in-law, look at this Beiping Guozijian Jijiu, is there anyone more suitable than me?"

Xu Jingchang nodded, "I just thought about it seriously. In fact, Wu Shan, Yang Rong, Huang Huai, Hu Guang, you can just find anyone. Don't meddle in these things, old man. I'm really afraid that it will affect your old man. Festival!"

Huang Guan stared at Xu Jingchang, and suddenly laughed for a long while and said, "Well, you brat, you really hold a grudge! Okay, I'll apologize to you, I'll make amends to you, or else, I'll kowtow to you!"

Hearing what he said, Xu Jingchang was terrified, and quickly stretched out his hand to help Huang Guan, who knew that Huang Guan sat down quietly before his arm touched him.
Sure enough, ginger is still old and spicy.

Xu Jingchang didn't have much to say, "In the future, it will be up to you to educate the barbarians and make China flourish."

Huang Guan said with a smile: "Where righteousness lies, there is no hesitation!"

He paused, and then said: "My son-in-law, since you want to use the money for weapons to run the school, you should work harder and sell more swords, guns, swords and halberds, don't you think?"

Xu Jingchang snorted, "Are you making me go further on the road of immorality?"

Huang Guan immediately shook his head, "You can't think like this... You see, the more we sell weapons, the more we buy, the more people will die when the barbarians conquer each other. After earning money, use it to run schools and cultivate them. The more talents there are. With the ebb and flow, my Ming Dynasty will definitely become more prosperous, don't you think? Sooner or later, China will be everywhere, and the whole world will be China, and that is the real world. dont you agree?"

The old father-in-law was thinking happily, and Xu Jingchang just wanted to say, "It turns out that you also have a flexible moral bottom line. It's really not easy."

Following the announcement of the establishment of a foreign school, Zhu Di finally issued an order to summon envoys from various countries.

Xu Jingchang was also called to the Palace of King Yan...Zhu Di was dressed in a uniform and had a majestic appearance. He really had the aura of Emperor Yongle.

After he saw Xu Jingchang, he imitated and said, "How is it? How is my dress today?"

Xu Jingchang hurriedly said: "Your Majesty's watch is like a dragon and a phoenix!"

Zhu Di chuckled, "He's pretty good at talking."

He leaned closer, and suddenly said: "Do you think the courtiers just like me to be neatly dressed, serious, honest, and just to be used as a decoration?"

Xu Jingchang was stunned, when did Fourth Zhu become so smart?

"Your Majesty Qizuo, I am different from those people, we are relatives!"

Zhu Di smiled meaningfully, "In that case, then you can accompany me to meet the envoys from all sides!"

Xu Jingchang nodded, but his heart was beating wildly. He always felt that fourth brother Zhu was going to do something wrong.

The first thing they met was the North Korean envoy. After all, they had just been beaten, and now they were full of grievances.

"I beg the Lord to show mercy, and severely punish the islanders of the Wa Kingdom."

Since the scoring was released, the status of the Wa Kingdom in North Korea has become lower and lower, and it has directly become an island barbarian.

Of course, this island barbarian was quite capable of fighting, and often invaded Korea... Perhaps in the history books of the Central Plains Dynasty, there were only a few major invaders, but in fact, Japanese pirates would invade North Korea almost every other year or so.

The hatred between the two sides is as deep as the sea, and they are hostile to each other. It is not a day's cold.

After Zhu Di listened carefully to the crying, he nodded, "The Japanese pirates ravaged the sea and often invaded Ming Dynasty. This time, I also want to reprimand the Japanese kingdom and let them restrain the bandits. If I can't do it, I will naturally send troops to teach the Japanese pirates myself. "

Hearing what Zhu Di said, the North Korean envoy only thought that he wanted to go to the imperial conquest, but he was very moved.

Can't help but said: "Your Majesty treats the country like a father treats his son, and the whole country is grateful."

Xu Jingchang almost laughed out loud beside him, so he recognizes his father?

You are really happy to cry!

With a smile on Zhu Di's face, "I am the sovereign father of all the people in the world, not only the people of Ming Dynasty, but all the common people who have a heart for Ming Dynasty and bathe in the king's transformation are all my people."

The North Korean envoy was even more excited, "Thank you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty's gracious grace, the Japanese country has always been evil, and it cannot be changed suddenly. What's more, the failure of the Yuan Dynasty's expedition to the Japanese country made them even more rampant. They must be sent to the country to severely punish the Japanese country. Only when you feel the pain on your skin can you honor the country and be friendly to neighbors."

Zhu Di paused, nodded and said, "Okay, I know about this."

Then Zhu Di called the Japanese envoy, and Zhu Di directly threw out a letter of credence and threw it to the Japanese envoy.

"I heard that the three emperors stand upright, and the five emperors are Zen. Only China has a master. How can barbarians have no emperor? The universe is so vast that it is not the sole power of one master; the universe is wide and flooded, and it is divided into various states. The one who conquers the world is the world. The world of one person is not the world of one person..."

The Japanese envoys were not fools either. When they saw this thing, they trembled and panicked.

This is when Zhu Yuanzhang decreed to accuse the Japanese country of the Japanese pirates in view of the riots along the coast, and wanted to crusade.

As a result, Prince Huailiang of the Japanese country made such a reply letter full of secondary senses, and at the end he even said boldly: "...Following the one who is not necessarily alive, and being rebellious is not necessarily sure to die. When we meet in front of Helan Mountain, we can chat about gambling, Why should the minister be afraid? If the ruler wins and the minister loses, it is full of the will of the state; if the minister wins and the ruler loses, it will be a shame for a small country!
Since ancient times, peace has been the most important thing, and fighting has become strong, so as to avoid the misery of the people and save the hardships of the common people.Special envoys, respectfully kowtow to Dan Bi, only the map of the country. "

Good guy, this is to compete with Daming Dynasty!

Zhu Yuanzhang hesitated again and again, because the national strength was really insufficient, and the lessons of the two defeats of the Yuan Dynasty had to be learned, and he gave up using troops.

But when he came to Zhu Di, he didn't care about it anymore.

After all, at this moment, Daming has all the power on land, and the navy has also risen.

Zheng He's voyage proved that Ming's ships will not be damaged halfway, and it is easy to sail to the country of Wa.

"Returning to His Majesty, Emperor Taizu showed pity on the country and did not send troops. I hope His Majesty will follow the example of Emperor Taizu and treat the small country preferentially. The small country is very grateful."

Zhu Di laughed and said, "I summoned you because I was merciful and didn't want to add troops... But you acted recklessly, and the plague of Japanese pirates has continued to this day and is getting worse. Even if I want to spare you, there is no reason for that!"

The Japanese envoy kowtowed again and again, "Your Majesty, those Japanese bandits were not dispatched to cover up the country. They are all desperadoes, and the people of the country have suffered a lot from them. I hope Your Majesty will see clearly."

Zhu Di hehe, "Master Ding, did you hear that?"

Xu Jingchang said: "Your Majesty, even though what the Japanese envoy said is reasonable, Daming shouldn't have to pay for the expenses of exterminating the Japanese pirates. Whoever has troubles should pay for it, and whoever's ass should be cleaned by himself! If the Japanese country doesn't have the ability to solve it, why not pay for it?" In this way, give Shangguo a sum of money, let Ming Dynasty send troops to kill all Japanese pirates, and return Haiyan Heqing to the people of the two countries."

The Japanese envoy was shocked, "The country is small and the people are poor, where there is money to support the country, I hope the country is lenient!"

Zhu Di was furious, "What a Japanese country that doesn't know what is good or bad, it is really going to kill itself. I will help you immediately!"

At this time Xu Jingchang hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this time the Wa Kingdom came here according to the order, and it is considered obedient. We should give them some preferential treatment. If they can hand over some of the gold and silver mines in the country, the gold and silver produced will be handed over to Daming. , used to exterminate Japanese pirates, maybe we can discuss one or two."

Zhu Di nodded when he heard this, "Did you hear that? This is my last favor! If you don't want to agree, go to prepare the army immediately. When this competition is over, I will definitely lead the army to attack... that's fine, Get out!"
