The Ming Dynasty started with saving the eldest grandson

Chapter 148 What the hell did he do?
When he came outside the palace, he saw Princess Fuqing waiting for him.

Chen Jingke took the initiative to send out the invitation: "Princess, how about we go to the side hall?"

Fu Qing's eyes averted: "Yeah."

"Please."

Chen Jingke is indeed not a hypocritical person, and he adjusts his mentality very quickly. Since he can't hide, let's talk about it.

If you can get along, it's just right. If you don't get along, just ask Queen Ma to decline.

And he also made up his mind not to live in the princess mansion.

I am marrying a wife, not looking for trouble.

If Zhu Yuanzhang disagrees, he will also be pulled down.

Of course, there is another reason why he is willing to get along with Princess Fuqing.

He had heard of this princess in his previous life.

Speaking of which, I would also like to thank an unscrupulous marketing account.

While surfing the Internet, I came across a title:
The only princess tomb in China with a tombkeeper.

The title caught his attention.

Even the imperial mausoleums no longer have any tombkeepers. How virtuous and capable a princess is, but there are still tombkeepers in the 21st century.

Just clicked in to see what was going on.

The first half of the article is all about what a tomb keeper is, and the second half begins to introduce the owner of the tomb.

It is Zhu Yuanzhang's eighth daughter, Princess Fuqing.

The article mentioned at the end that the people who lived in the princess cemetery were not the tombkeepers, but nearby migrant workers who lived here to save rent.

Although the unscrupulous public account was annoying, it did make him have some interest in the princess.

Just searched it online.

Needless to say, it is indeed unique.

Changing his stereotype of the Ming Dynasty princess.

When you mention the princess of the Ming Dynasty, what is your impression?

Under the influence of Zhu Yuanzhang, the princess was strictly prohibited from participating in politics.

It is advocated that women without talents are virtuous, and only some things like the virtues of female celebrities are taught.

He was trapped in the Princess Mansion for the rest of his life and was bullied by the Princess Mansion's orders.

If you want to see your husband, you have to bribe the princess' palace order.

In short, there is only one word, miserable.

As for this Princess of Fuqing, the description of her in history books is very different.

She has a beautiful appearance, an intelligent spirit, and is proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

These are not the main points, the real difference is:
She has the talent to govern the country, and is the daughter of powerful people in her dealings. She has made suggestions for Zhu Yuanzhang many times.

Not to mention Zhu Yuanzhang's daughter, this is the only one among all the princesses in the Ming Dynasty.

So Chen Jingke was quite impressed by her.

After traveling through time, he became his grandson's companion. Living in the palace, it was natural for him to get to know Zhu Yuanzhang's concubines and children.

At this time, the memory of Princess Fuqing emerged.

I quietly observed it out of curiosity and found that it was indeed very beautiful.

In other words, her mother was very beautiful, and she completely inherited her mother's beauty.

Among Zhu Yuanzhang's children, her appearance is the most outstanding.

Then in terms of IQ, he inherited Lao Zhu.

He has a reputation for talent since he was a child and is deeply loved by Lao Zhu.

Zhu Yuanzhang could teach her the knowledge of governing the country for the first time, and her best friends were all the daughters of important officials in the court.

Not even the two direct princesses born to Queen Ma have this honor.

This shows how special she is.

But that's all. For special princesses, they still have to live in the princess mansion after getting married.

After that, Chen Jingke stopped paying attention to her.

She was only 12 years old at the time, and no matter how beastly he was, he would never have feelings for a little girl.

What's more, he didn't want to be the Ming Dynasty's consort unless absolutely necessary.

But I didn't expect that Lao Zhu would push her out two years later.

Chen Jingke also had to sigh with emotion, the word fate is indeed mysterious.

While he was deep in thought, Princess Fuqing was also quietly sizing him up.

He has a handsome appearance, deep eyes, and a calm demeanor, and he doesn't look like a teenager at all.

What really makes her heart beat is her talent.

At first, my father said that he was very powerful, but I still didn’t believe it.

She has always been dissatisfied with others. If she were a man, she would definitely be no worse than anyone else.

It wasn't until I saw it with my own eyes that I realized that a person could be so stunningly beautiful.

What dad said was a bit conservative.

And judging by how much his father and eldest brother value him, he will definitely be in a high position in the future.

Such a person is enough to be his husband.

She couldn't help but think.

Chen Jingke never spoke, and she became anxious again.

Why didn't he speak?
Do you dislike me?

Hum, if you dare not like this princess, see how I deal with you.

After a while, she, who had a strong temperament, finally couldn't help it and took the initiative to say:

"I saw you have a lotus tongue just now, why are you so precious about words now?"

Chen Jingke naturally heard her dissatisfaction, and also knew that it was caused by her silence just now. She probably mistakenly thought that he was dissatisfied with her.

So he said apologetically: "Sorry, I was thinking about something just now and got distracted."

Princess Fuqing didn't believe it and said, "Oh, can I ask what it is?"

Chen Jingke decided to 'tell the truth': "I am recalling the memory of the princess."

Princess Fuqing's eyes suddenly widened, are you teasing me?

Really brave.

But, so frivolous.

Chen Jingke said seriously: "I am the grandson's companion and I live in the palace."

"You need to know something about all your Majesty's concubines and princes and princesses, so as not to bump into anyone."

"Of course this includes Princess You and Concubine Zheng An."

"I was just recalling your affairs and personality, so as not to say the wrong thing and make you unhappy."

Um... Princess Fuqing felt extremely guilty.

It turned out that he meant this, and that he had wronged him.

Looking at the embarrassed and helpless Princess Fuqing, Chen Jingke smiled secretly.

Little girl, you are too young.

Although I was not a prodigal son in my previous life, I did have several girlfriends.

Compared to you, he is an experienced driver.

Two words, pick it up.

While they were talking, they had already arrived at the side hall. Even if Chen Jingke had a hundred courages, he would not dare to take her to his room.

He found a guardrail facing the sun in the corridor, wiped it carefully with a handkerchief, and said:

"Princess, please sit down."

Princess Fuqing thought to herself, how careful she is.

In fact, most people would probably be more diligent than Chen Jingke.

It's just that she felt she had wronged Chen Jingke and felt guilty in her heart. Even if he just did what he should do, she would feel particularly outstanding.

When she sat down, Chen Jingke sat down one meter away from her.

This way you can maintain enough distance without appearing distant.

Afraid of causing unnecessary misunderstandings again, Princess Fuqing took the initiative and said:

"I wonder what kind of person I am in the rumors?" Chen Jingke thought for a while and said, "I'm afraid that if I say it, you will think that I am deliberately complimenting you."

Princess Fuqing was stunned for a moment. When she realized what he meant, she couldn't help but laugh:

"You talk so funny. I thought someone as talented as you would be more serious."

Chen Jingke smiled and said: "I have never been a dull person. There are many fun things in life. It would be a pity to miss them."

Princess Fuqing smiled and said: "This sentence fits my impression of you. Talented people always like to preach."

Chen Jingke laughed dumbly and said: "The princess is quite in line with the rumors. She is cheerful, intelligent and talented, and is deeply loved by His Majesty."

Princess Fuqing said with a smile: "I have heard of you before, or there should be very few people in the palace who don't know about you."

"In everyone's mind, you are a genius doctor with superb medical skills and a kind heart."

"The maids and eunuchs in the palace all praise you when they mention you."

"There are many people who know you outside the palace, but most people think that you are curious and skillful, and you are lucky enough to become the grandson's companion."

Chen Jingke said with great interest: "I wonder what kind of person I was in the princess' mind at that time."

Princess Fuqing raised her head and bravely looked directly into his eyes:

"Not much like them, but I know you are a very smart person."

"Otherwise, you won't have everyone praising you."

"It's just that the real you is beyond my expectations."

Chen Jingke remained unmoved and said calmly:

"I'm just like the old fox. I've never hidden myself."

"But you can't let me shout loudly, I am a genius, right?"

"I can only say that they are too slow to think that I rely on my medical skills to secure my position as my grandson's companion."

"Haha..." Princess Fuqing was amused and said:

"If you really shout like that, they will think you are even more stupid."

"But it's not that everyone hasn't noticed. As far as I know, Mr. Han guessed that you are special."

Chen Jingke said curiously: "Oh, I wonder what Mr. Han saw?"

Duke Fu Qing thought for a while and said, "I also heard Sister Lin'an mention it once."

"It is recognized in South Korea that your purpose in compiling the "Hongwu Suan Jing" is not simple. Perhaps it is to win over arithmetic experts."

Chen Jingke was not surprised. With Li Shanchang's ability, it would be strange if he couldn't tell.

Princess Fuqing continued: "However, the Korean prince is very dissatisfied with this. He thinks that the achievements in arithmetic are limited."

"As my grandson's companion, you should make friends with scholars so that you can help me in the future."

Chen Jingke couldn't help but shake his head. He didn't expect that even Li Shanchang couldn't get rid of the inherent thinking of scholars.

But it's normal. If he is not a time traveler and does not have a series of follow-up plans, it really doesn't make much sense to win over the mathematicians.

Princess Fuqing said curiously: "I'm also surprised. With your status, you should make friends with scholars. Why do you never see you dealing with them?"

Chen Jingke chuckled and said, "Because we are not on the same track."

Seeing her confused look, he explained: "It's like two people competing to climb a mountain. They took the rugged mountain road, and I took the ladder to the sky."

Princess Fuqing thought he was talking about the shortcut to Zhongnan, and it was indeed a shortcut to directly become her grandson's companion.

He said disapprovingly: "But no matter what, being an official requires the help of like-minded people."

"Relying on one person, after all, your ability is limited."

Chen Jingke smiled and said: "Princess, do you think that if they know that I support Taisun's military reform, they will still support me?"

Fu Qing was speechless. This was simply killing the scholar. How could he support it?

"But there's always support, right?"

Chen Jingke shook his head and said, "Actually, I have been looking for and cultivating like-minded people."

"For example, Xu Yungong, such as Hanlin editor Fang Xiaoru."

Princess Fuqing said in surprise: "Wait a minute, you said Fang Xiaoru is yours?"

Chen Jingke corrected him: "It's not my person, it's someone I recognize."

Princess Fuqing did not dwell on this, but said:
"Do you know what he did during the time you left Beijing?"

Chen Jingke nodded and said, "I know, we have been exchanging letters, and he has offended most of the people in the Hanlin Academy."

It was mainly the editors of "A Brief History of China". As Chen Jingke thought, these people had tampered with the book.

Fang Xiaoru first argued with reason, but when he found that the other party couldn't argue, he started to use so-called etiquette to pressure him.

He sprayed more directly.

Not like a shrew scolding people in the street, but writing articles to complain about them.

Fang Xiaoru's article is one of a kind, without even a single curse word, it scolds people completely.

The Confucians were so angry that they couldn't do anything about him.

You know, Fang Xiaoru still has the label of 'crazy' on her body.

You are no match for a head-on argument, and you can't do it over and over again.

When they complained to Zhu Yuanzhang, they were criticized for making things up without understanding the holy will.

At this time, the group of Confucian scholars were completely helpless and could only pinch their noses and delete the private items they had carried.

Fang Xiaoru wrote all this to Chen Jingke, and repeatedly promised that no one would do anything wrong while he was around.

Chen Jingke was naturally very happy.

To be honest, when I first remodeled Fang Xiaoru, I just wanted to give it a try.

If you become the best, it doesn't matter if you don't.

I didn't expect the effect to be so good.

What made him most happy was that Fang Xiaoru was no longer alone.

His unique behavior and abusive articles successfully attracted seven or eight followers.

These people are gradually accepting some of his views.

It can be said that the splitting of Confucianism and the spread of new ideas are already on the way.

Princess Fuqing didn't know this and frowned:

"The Hanlin Academy is where the imperial court trains talents. Do you know the consequences of doing this?"

Chen Jingke chuckled and said, "Princess, do you know that I planned what he did."

Princess Fuqing said in disbelief: "Ah? Why?"

Chen Jingke said calmly: "In order to make my own voice."

Princess Fuqing opened her mouth again and again. She wanted to say that Chen Jingke was arrogant.

But when he thought about his performance in front of his father today, he felt that everything was normal again.

The more talented a person is, the more arrogant and independent they are.

"Does daddy know if you do this?"

Chen Jingke nodded and said, "I know, I never do anything behind your Majesty's back."

Seeing him being so confident and arrogant, Princess Fuqing was in a daze.

Involuntarily, what his father had just said to him came to mind:
We know that you are capable and may even be the person with the most unique ideas and the longest view in the world.

If you have any ideas, just tell me. If you don’t understand, tell the prince. If the prince doesn’t understand, tell the grandson in a few years.

As long as you are doing the best for Ming Dynasty, I will keep you worry-free...

Is that so?No wonder dad would say such things.

Then, she couldn't help but think of what Zhu Yuanzhang said to her a few days ago:
My dear daughter, Dad has found a perfect husband for you.

If you succeed, I will not build you a princess mansion, but will give you money, food and land.

You two will live in your own home and live your life.

At that time, she thought it was because her father loved her and didn't want her to be trapped in the princess' mansion.

Now it seems that this honor is not for himself, but for Chen Jingke.

His father was afraid that he would not be able to stand the constraints of his consort and would not agree to the marriage.

That's why we made an exception not to build a princess mansion.

To put it more bluntly, she is not marrying the consort, but marrying into the Chen family.

Realizing this, she felt very uncomfortable, but she couldn't help but feel strong curiosity.

What did he do to make his father trust him so much and give him such special treatment?
