Daming: I am the most powerful emperor grandson, please abdicate the throne

"Those slaves know nothing!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw Zhu Xuan coming, he handed over the rest of the work to the slaves below. When the eunuchs saw this, they all rushed to do it.

He washed his hands, walked over to Zhu Xuan and Wen Gui, and asked, "My dear grandson, you don't read the memorial or accompany your daughter, but you come to see us. Is there anything that you can't determine?"

Before Zhu Xuan could speak, Wen Gui said: "Grandpa, it stinks!"

"You stinky boy, you are the stinker!"

When Zhu Xuan heard that Wen Gui was so unruly, he lightly tapped his forehead.

Wen Gui immediately covered his forehead, but soon covered his nose again.

Zhu Yuanzhang was not angry at all. When his great-great-grandson said that he stinks, he laughed and said, "Yunqi, give us a bath and change our clothes. Didn't you see that Wen Gui said that we stink?"

When Yunqi heard this, he hurried back to make arrangements.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care about the father and son. He just went back immediately, preparing to talk about other things after taking a bath. He loved Wen Gui so much that he almost loved him to heaven. He would obey anything Wen Gui suggested.

Even still, obey unconditionally.

"I just know how to talk nonsense."

Zhu Yuanzhang taught Wen Gui another lesson.

Wen Gui stuck out her tongue playfully and lowered her head, looking very embarrassed about this. However, Lao Zhu was covered in excrement and it did stink. There was nothing we could do about it. People who did farm work were like this.

Lao Zhu always believed that he was just a farmer, and that was how he should be.

After waiting for a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang came out.

Wen Gui then ran over and said with a happy smile: "Grandpa, it smells so good!"

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed loudly. Now that Wen Gui has grown up, he is also old and can no longer hold this brat. But he took his hand and went back, saying: "That's how we are. We live a busy life and can't take any time off. I can’t enjoy the blessings because I can’t help but work when I’m free.”

Speaking of this, he was still full of pride.

At this age, being able to still work and cultivate a few fields is indeed something to be proud of.

Zhu Xuan said: "Grandpa Huang, you can take a walk around when you are free, and take a walk outside the palace."

He then thought about it. Before traveling through time, he saw some old people in the countryside, who were almost in the same state as Lao Zhu. Even though their family background was not bad, they still liked to go to the fields.

After being a farmer for a lifetime, there is no time for leisure. This is probably the state that some hard-working farmers in China should have had for thousands of years.

They only know how to farm, and cultivating the land is their pride.

"no!"

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and said: "Going out of the palace is very troublesome and requires a lot of effort. Although we also want to go out of the palace and understand the people's sentiments, it is wasteful to go out once. It is better to farm in the palace."

After a pause, he put Wen Gui next to him and asked, "Is there anything that cannot be determined?"

"Grandpa Huang!"

Zhu Xuan put Zhang Yao's test paper in front of Lao Zhu and said: "The questions for the civil service examination have been selected. My grandson read it once and it was pretty good, but the last question was changed to how to manage the trade zone. Grandpa Huang will take a look first."

Zhu Yuanzhang said happily: "My dear Sun Jianguo, you don't understand a lot. We are also afraid that those scholars will use the imperial examination questions to deceive you and support their disciples for them. Just bring it to us for a look first. In fact, it will take another two days." God, we’re also going to go over the imperial examination questions for you.”

He also had his own concerns, thinking that Zhu Xuan had just taken charge of the country and must not understand many things, especially about important matters such as the imperial examination.

Although it was Zhu Xuan who proposed the reform of the imperial examination.

However, proposing it and putting it into practice are completely different things.

Zhu Xuan can propose it, but he may not be able to do it well. This requires him, the imperial grandfather, to make the final supplement, especially knowing that those scholars are very bad and will stick together for their own interests. As an emperor, the last thing he likes to see is for his ministers to stick together.

"not bad!"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the test questions, nodded slightly and said: "They are still considered to be those scholars. They know how to measure and don't mess around. But Guaishaun wants to add the question of trade area because he wants to find some suitable people in the trade area, right?"

Of course he also knows what has happened in the trade area recently.

Judging from the current situation, the trade area should indeed be investigated and thoroughly investigated. Even the Cen family members were almost captured by Zhu Xuan, regardless of their relatives. Lao Zhu was particularly satisfied with this.

They are Ming Dynasty and don't need the kind of domineering relatives.

Those who deserve to be killed must still be killed.

"Yes!"

Zhu Xuan nodded and said: "The trade zone is very important to our Ming Dynasty. We cannot let it continue to be corrupt. We must bring order to the chaos. It is necessary to change the people inside regularly."

After a pause, he continued: "However, there are so many scholars in the Ming Dynasty and so many officials in the court. My grandson doesn't know which officials can be used, so the imperial examination is a pretty good method."

"That's right!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said in agreement: "Guaisun is right. The trade area should be renovated. We can make sure that there is no problem with the test questions. By changing the last question, we can prepare the officials for the exam."

Immediately, he thought of other things and asked: "As for the foreigners who came to our Ming Dynasty to take the imperial examination, what is the situation of those foreigners?"

Zhu Xuan said: "According to what Zhang Yan said, there are a few foreign scholars who are pretty good and are willing to study hard and attentively. If they don't understand something, they often go to the Imperial College for advice. But there are also a few people from Goryeo. Much lazier.”

Zhu Yuanzhang hummed and said: "The people of Korea have always been like this! They are arrogant and self-righteous. In fact, they know nothing and have nothing. They insist on pretending to have and know everything."

Unexpectedly, Zhu Yuanzhang's analysis of the Korean people was so accurate.

"It would be good for those foreigners to be more serious to us."

Zhu Yuanzhang said again: "What kind of assimilation plan does Guai Sun have, can it be better realized?"

"Yes!"

Zhu Xuan nodded and said: "For foreigners, my grandson still has a lot to do."

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed: "Thank you for your hard work, my dear grandson. Only my dear grandson can do so much. If it were us... we don't care whether they live or die, and we can just lead troops to fight back wherever they want."

Hearing this, Zhu Xuan also smiled.

According to Lao Zhu's thoughts, this is indeed the case.

"Okay, the matter of the imperial examination is decided like this for the time being."

Zhu Yuanzhang said again: "If there is any problem, come back to us as soon as possible. You know, once there is a problem in the imperial examination, it will be very serious."

"My grandson understands!"

Zhu Xuan nodded. Before leaving, he looked at Wen Gui and warned: "Wen Gui, listen to Grandpa Huang and don't mess around. Do you understand?"

"I know, kid!"

Wen Gui looked very sensible and nodded solemnly.

"Okay, not long after we came here, we will teach our little great-grandson a lesson."

Zhu Yuanzhang hummed and said: "Wen Gui is very good, I don't need you to teach me a lesson, just go down!" (End of Chapter)
