Daming: My boss Zhu Yuanzhang

Chapter 43 Opening an umbrella when it snows
Snowflakes were falling, and the entire Yingtian Mansion was covered in silver, as if it had changed its appearance.

The weather in Yingtianfu was much colder than that of Nanjing in later generations.

In the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Biao was reporting some government affairs to Zhu Yuanzhang, and Li Wei was playing on the computer next to him. Uh, no, it was work!
During this time, he came here whenever he had free time, using the computer to check information, draw some pictures, design something and so on. He would secretly play games when Lao Zhu was not around, as if he was back at work in the company of later generations.

When it comes to troop training, Li Wei mainly handles the formation, and the rest is left to Song Zhong and his personal guards to train step by step.

These personal guards are not like the college students of later generations. They are not lazy even when the instructor is not around.

Zhu Biao was a man of great literary talent. He was reporting to Zhu Yuanzhang about a minister left behind by the Yuan Dynasty. He probably said that this person was of extraordinary character, kept integrity for the former Yuan Dynasty, and refused to serve as a scholar or official.

Zhu Yuanzhang issued an order to summon the remaining ministers of the former dynasty from all over the country to serve as officials. The envoys went to find Boyan Zizhong, the former minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs of the Yuan Dynasty. This guy drank medicine and committed suicide.

Li Wei, who was playing Minesweeper out of boredom, frowned deeper and deeper after listening to Zhu Biao's words, and finally couldn't help snorting mockingly from his nostrils.

Zhu Biao stopped and turned to look at him. Zhu Yuanzhang also looked over, frowned and asked:

"What are you humming?"

"It's nothing."

Li Wei put away his sarcastic expression and straightened his posture.

"Just say what you are told!" Zhu Yuanzhang scolded unhappily. Li Wei was in the cabinet and was qualified to speak.

"Then I'll say it!"

Li Wei couldn't hold it in any longer and said with disdain:

"He's just a traitor, what's there to admire?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao's expressions changed.

"Why did Li Gebu say this? Although the former Yuan Dynasty was cruel, it was also our Chinese orthodoxy. Although Boyan Zizhong was a relic of the former Yuan Dynasty, his integrity in upholding his integrity is worthy of praise!"

Zhu Biao received orthodox Confucian education since he was a child, and he agreed with this very much. He was very unhappy when he saw Li Wei scolding him when he opened his mouth.

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Zhu Biao lightly and said nothing.

"Orthodox? The Mongolian Yuan Dynasty ruled China for hundreds of years and treated the Han people as slaves from the beginning to the end. How can we call it orthodox? You call it orthodox. Do you think the people of the world agree?"

Li Wei was also very angry. He had no good impressions of Meng Yuan at all. Some people in later generations praised the Yuan Dynasty for conquering the world and opening up territory for China. This was all their own lust!

In his opinion, Meng Yuan is just a bunch of bandits who rob whatever they fight and have nothing to do with the word "rule"!
The Meng Yuan fought all the way to the Black Sea and occupied such a vast territory, but no trace of the Chinese culture was left in these places. Once the Meng Yuan was destroyed, these places immediately returned to their original state.

Moreover, the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty in the Central Plains are not the same thing. Although they have the same origin and are famously one family, in fact they are fighting each other and no one obeys the other.

There is also the four-class system, which classifies Han people as slaves. They cannot fight back when they are beaten or scolded. Fighting back is a crime!

There are all kinds of other systems of discrimination!Even many dignitaries of the Yuan Dynasty wanted to kill all the Han people and herd horses in the Central Plains.

As soon as Li Wei finished speaking, Zhu Biao was very angry and argued: "Although the Qianyuan Dynasty was unethical, it still opened up subjects to recruit scholars and respected Confucian ethics. How can it not be considered orthodox?"

"Confucian ethics? Haha, when Zhao Kuangyin bullied orphans and widowed mothers, they were treated as ministers of the Song Dynasty. When barbarians from the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties invaded, they were also treated as ministers of the Yuan Dynasty. It's really a Confucian school that has been in a dynasty for thousands of years! And what about Yan Shenggong, I think He’s clearly a domestic slave with a surname of Qian!”

Li Wei sarcastically said, he hasn't mentioned the Manchus who are behind him. These hypocrites are treating people like slaves. Even in their childhood, if they lose, if they win, he believes that these hypocrites who talk about benevolence, justice and morality will also I will definitely regard my little life as orthodox.

"You you, you presumptuous!"

Zhu Biao was so angry that he couldn't speak. Although Li Wei's words were biased, they were also true. He didn't know how to refute them.

"Father, please tell me something, the former Yuan Dynasty orthodoxy was recognized by you in an edict!"

Zhu Yuanzhang, who had been silently watching the two people arguing, slightly jumped at the corner of his mouth when he heard these words. To be honest, he didn't want to answer these words.

He had his own considerations when he admitted to the former Yuan Dynasty orthodoxy, but he regretted it soon after.

When the Ming Dynasty first took over the world, there was a serious shortage of officials. Such a vast land required many officials to truly rule.

Therefore, his attitude towards the remaining ministers of the Yuan Dynasty was mainly to recruit them, while recruiting them for use, while finding reasons to kill them, and at the same time opening up subjects to recruit scholars to replace them.

It was only later that he discovered that Confucianism in the world was of the same spirit. Even if they started to open schools to recruit scholars, the people who came after them were the teachers and students of these people, and it was difficult to completely distinguish them.

Seeing that Li Wei was so disgusted with Meng Yuan and Confucianism at this moment, he was surprised and very satisfied at the same time. This was the lonely minister he wanted.

"You just said that the Song Dynasty was unjust and the Yuan Dynasty was a barbarian. What about our Ming Dynasty?"

Zhu Yuanzhang intervened in the topic from another angle, and he was confident in this aspect.

Li Wei's face froze. He really didn't want to praise this dog emperor who oppressed and exploited him, but Zhu Yuanzhang really had nothing to say in this regard.

"Your Majesty started from a humble beginning, expelled the Tartars and restored China, and won the most righteous country. However! It is very bad for Your Majesty to admit the orthodoxy of the former Yuan Dynasty!" Li Wei reluctantly recounted the evaluation of later generations quickly, and then spoke in a tone of voice After a turn, I emphatically said but.

"Hehehe..."

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he laughed happily a few times, then suddenly his smile dropped and he shouted:
"You know nothing! We asked you to train, have you done it? You are just lazy every day! Get out of here and train!"

Li Wei, who had just pointed out the situation with righteous indignation, was choked by his two words and could not refute.

Li Wei curled his lips secretly, turned around and muttered in a low voice, packed up the computer and put it in his bag, wrapped his clothes tightly and left Qianqing Palace.

After Li Wei left, Zhu Yuanzhang began to preach to Zhu Biao.

"Biao'er, although what that bitch said is biased, it's not completely unreasonable..."

Zhu Yuanzhang was satisfied with everything about Haodaer, but he was very dissatisfied with his superstitious Confucian benevolence, righteousness and morality.

However, Zhu Biao is now in his 20s, and his inherent ideas have been formed and are difficult to change.

"Father, I also want to see the training of new weapons."

Before Zhu Yuanzhang could continue, Zhu Biao interrupted.

"Hey, let's go."

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned in dissatisfaction and sighed without forcing it.

Zhu Biao saluted and was about to leave, but stopped after taking two steps.

"Father, let me get something."

As he spoke, he walked to the backpack left by Li Wei and took out the automatic umbrella from the bag.

He has also fiddled with everything in the bag these days.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at it but didn't stop him. Zhu Biao took the umbrella and left.

Seeing Zhu Biao leaving, Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head helplessly.

"It's all my fault that old guy Song Lian taught our Biao'er to look like this, huh!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said to himself angrily.

"Xu Shou!"

Xu Shou who was outside the door quickly walked in after hearing the sound.

"The servant is here."

"Summon Mao Xiang to see you!"

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, Xu Shou withdrew and arranged for someone to leave the palace to find Mao Xiang...

Zhu Biao left the Qianqing Palace and caught up with Li Wei after taking a few steps.

"Li Qing's family, wait a moment."

Li Wei turned around and saw Zhu Biao following him.

"What's the matter, His Royal Highness?"

"Oh, I want to go with the Qing family to see the new firearms."

As he spoke, Zhu Biao came to Li Wei, took out the automatic umbrella, and opened it with a snap in front of Li Wei.

"Hey, Li Qing's house, it's snowing so heavily, why don't you hold an umbrella? It's still very cold when the snow falls on you. How about I give you my umbrella to use?"

Li Wei looked at "my umbrella" in Zhu Biao's hand and twitched the corner of his mouth.

I am really cold and you are a real dog.

"Need not!"

Li Wei shook off the snowflakes from his shoulders and walked forward gracefully. Being from the north, he said that holding an umbrella in the snow was purely hypocritical.
