Hongwu Survival Guide

Chapter 229

Leave the East Pavilion, pass through the Zuoshun Gate, and soon come to the Dahondo on the back of the East Pavilion.It has to be said that the place built here for the prince to study is much more magnificent than the row of verandahs where Lao Zhu works.

Zhu Yuan also knew that later, Daben Hall was renamed Wenyuan Pavilion.

After Emperor Yongle moved his capital to Beijing, he built the Forbidden City, which basically adopted the regulations of the Nanjing Imperial City, and Wenyuan Pavilion has also been preserved.

Until the Qing Dynasty.

Later, people often saw the Wenyuange Grand Master in Qing palace dramas, which is why he came here.However, the Diange Bachelor was not exclusive to the Qing Dynasty, but was set up by Lao Zhu after the abolition of the prime minister system, and was responsible for assisting government affairs.

Zhu Yuan brought He Xuan, who was holding a stack of 'PPT' presentations, together with Zhu Xiong Ding, who was sent by Lao Zhu to inform the other two princes to listen to the lecture. It was Liang Zhen, the guest of the prince next to Zhu Biao.

This is an old man with a long beard who looks a little bit thin.

After everyone had seen the ceremony, Liang Zhen led Zhu Yuan and the others to a side hall, and said, "Your Highness heard Zhu Hanlin say that "Shangshu" is in full swing, let Pingzhang wait a moment."

Zhu Yuan nodded, with no abnormal expression on his face, and asked with a smile, "Zhu Sheng?"

"Exactly."

After speaking, she came to sit down in a small hall on the east side of the main hall, Liang Zhen summoned the waiter to bring tea, and after hearing what Xiong Ding had said, she led the other party to see the two young princes.

Zhu Yuan held tea and waited for a while in the somewhat cold side hall. Soon there were footsteps and voices. It was Zhu Xun and Zhu Xun. The two teenagers ran in the door in a very inconspicuous manner, followed by Liang Zhen and Xiong Ding. There was an old man with a scroll in his hand, Qin Yubo, another Hanlin direct scholar, with a helpless expression on his face, apparently he was just giving a lecture to the two princes, and was interrupted by Zhu Yuan.

So he got up again.

The two young boys were informal, and they took Zhu Yuan to sit down together with a simple greeting. They looked like close relatives, and their purpose was revealed in a blink of an eye. It was Zhu Xi who said: "Yuan, that steam engine model, next time you come, quietly see it off. How many are you with the third brother?"

Zhu Yuan withdrew his hand from the little ancestor without any trace, instead of agreeing, he said: "Your Highness, didn't you send in a lot?"

After the demonstration that day, Lao Zhu dumped a bunch of large and small models into the palace, saying that he wanted to build a track outside the main hall.

I didn't see it just now.

I don't know if it was transferred to the harem.

When Zhu Yuan said that, Zhu Xi was immediately upset, and raised his hand and pointed in one direction: "Father won't let me touch it randomly, and I will keep it in the west room like a treasure."

Zhu Yan felt the same: "Yes, play by yourself."

It turned out to be in the house.

but.

play by youself……

Why does it feel weird for the son to describe Lao Tzu like this?

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuan said: "The factory will be built recently, which is a major event, and the craftsmen can no longer spend too much time making models..." Seeing the disappointment on the faces of the two teenagers, they smiled again: "...But , I do have some, but if the two Highnesses want it, they have to get the consent of the ancestors."

Big ups and downs.

Zhu Xi's little face, which hadn't cheered up, collapsed in an instant: "Father won't agree."

Zhu Yan echoed: "Play by yourself."

Zhu Yuan: "..."

Third, can you change the word?
Skipping over a certain detail, Zhu Yuan said: "The steam engine model, I think it is actually very beneficial for the two Highnesses to play with it occasionally and understand the principle. In this way, I will talk to my ancestors later, and my ancestors will agree. "

Great backwardness is great rise again.

Zhu Xi, who was thinking about how to persuade Zhu Yuan to deliver the things quietly, suddenly excitedly grabbed his nephew's arm again: "Yuan'er, it's so settled, you have to tell Dad carefully."

The young man is not strong but his strength is not small. Zhu Yuan felt a little hurt when he was caught. He shook his arm, retracted his arm again, and promised: "After the class, I will talk to my ancestors."

Zhu Xi is impatient: "That being the case, let's start, what do you want to talk about?"

Zhu Yan is also a chicken pecking rice.

Zhu Yuan shook his head: "We still have to wait for His Royal Highness."

The two teenagers did not see each other in front of his elder brother, Zhu Chen immediately told Zhu Fan: "Third brother, go and shout."

Zhu Yan got up and was about to run over, but was stopped by Zhu Yuan: "No, His Highness is listening to a class, we can't disturb you."

Zhu Yan was stopped, glanced at his second brother, and sat down again.

While chatting here, Zhu Yuan silently calculated in his mind.

About a quarter of an hour.

Liang Zhen came to inform again that the prince had finished speaking, and Zhu Yuan and the two princes got up and walked towards the main hall.

Zhu Biao was sending Zhu Sheng away when he happened to meet him. Zhu Yuan greeted His Highness the Crown Prince first, and then greeted Zhu Sheng.

Later, Xiong Ding and Zhu Biao talked about Lao Zhu's instructions, and Zhu Yuan noticed that after Zhu Biao listened, he first glanced at himself, and then turned to his two younger brothers.

It's sharp.

Zhu Biao should realize that it is most likely his suggestion that the other two princes attend classes together.

Sigh inwardly.

If I knew it earlier, I would not recommend it.

In the main hall, after the demonstration board was set up, the others left, and soon there were only four teenagers left, including Zhu Yuan.

Zhu Biao sat behind the first book table, and on both sides were two brothers. Zhu Yuan was in charge of lecturing and stood in front of the demonstration card under the hall.

After roughly talking about his course schedule, Zhu Yuan just started the first page of 'PPT', but was interrupted by Zhu Biao: "Yuaner, wait a minute."

Zhu Yuan looked over: "What's the matter, Your Highness?"

Zhu Biao picked up a hardcover edition of "Da Ming Monthly" from the book case, and showed it to Zhu Yuan: "I also read this recently, but I have objections."

"Ok?"

Zhu Biao said: "It was my side who told Dewangshe that this "Daming Monthly" is just a newspaper, but a book of 3 copies would cost 5000 silver coins, but is it true?"

Holding a charcoal pen as a pointer in his hand, Zhu Yuan shook his head when he heard the words: "Your Highness, this is just the cost of materials. If manpower expenses are included, it will cost more than 5000 pens."

Zhu Biao was stunned.

In the imagination, someone should be denying, or sophistrying, this... is not the right reaction.

However, Zhu Biao quickly said: "So, according to what Wang She said, 5000 guan silver coins, if exchanged for grain, are enough for 3 to [-] people for a month. Yuaner, you deceived the emperor to print this thing, and it will cost you more than a month in the future." Yue is like this, it really shouldn’t be.”

Zhu Yuan slightly frowned slightly, but said patiently: "His Royal Highness, the production of "Daming Monthly" has considerations related to the fate of the Ming Dynasty behind it, and it cannot be measured by simple money."

Saying this, Zhu Yuan was about to change a page of blank paper on the demonstration board beside him, and planned to explain in detail while writing, when Zhu Biao said again: "Yuaner, among the many suggestions you gave to the emperor, there is 'nourishing the people'. ', what can be more important than this way?"

Zhu Yuan patiently changed a blank page on the demo board: "Your Highness, please listen to my detailed explanation."

In the hall, on both sides of Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi and Zhu Bian listened to the conversation between the two, and looked up and down between them. The young people's sense is always keen. This nephew... seems to have a lot of opinions.

Outside the hall, several teenagers didn't notice that Lao Zhu had arrived at some point, and stood by a window, listening quietly.

Because Zhu Yuan opened another terrifying door about nuclear energy, and because a certain "unpredictable prophet" casually mentioned the matter of He Wenhui, Lao Zhu was not in the mood to review the memorial for a while, so he simply put aside his work and came here for the time being. Listen to how my baby's 23rd generation grandson teaches his sons.

Didn't expect to hear this by accident.

Continue to listen to Zhu Yuan's detailed explanation of the various considerations behind "Da Ming Monthly", and he seems very patient. He is not impatient at all because of what his eldest son said just now, and Lao Zhu is very satisfied.

Lao Zhu is not dissatisfied with the eldest son.

Children are still young, it is normal to be misled.

However, the frown did not relax. When Zhu Yuan started to talk about energy, Lao Zhu left silently.

Came to a room in the west wing of the Dahon Hall, where the steam model that Zhu Xi pointed to Zhu Yuan just now was placed. In the middle of the room, a pool three feet high and one foot long and five feet wide was built. In the pool was a steam engine boat. A model, with a steam train track around the pool.

After fiddling for a while, Lao Zhu asked Xiong Ding, who was following him, to summon a guard, and said sullenly, "Yu De Wang She, how dare you slander and seduce the prince, and separate Biao'er and Yuan'er, go and tie him up for me." Throw it into the big river, and then come back to report me after watching you drown."

The guard clasped his fists in acceptance, turned and left without hesitation.

Seeing this, Xiong Ding realized that his master was getting angry, which would hurt him, so he didn't dare to persuade him.

Lao Zhu filled the steam train with water, found a fire, lit candles, fiddled with it for a while without saying a word, and finally regained his mood.

I plan to go back and continue my business.

Leaving the main hall, thinking about it, he ordered Xiong Ding behind him: "Let the kitchen prepare a good meal, and I will eat with Biaoer and the others at noon."
