Zhu Yuanzhang can see my dreams

Chapter 190 Chapter 190 The Master of Clear Soup

For the emperor, loyalty is the most important thing!

Everything else has to go to the back.

Meeting some humanoid emperors, such as Men Tianzi, what happened to Yu Shaobao’s abilities?

If you have to kill, kill!

Not only that, after purging this group of people, I will also reward some of the wives and daughters of the ministers who participated in the defense of Beijing to foreigners for humiliation.

Zhu Qizhen is simply the best among crumbs.

Zhu Yuanzhang was here to educate the prince, and he also wanted to put the loyalty of his courtiers first.

It's best to take care of these people, and of course you have to tolerate their incompetence.

"Don't expect someone with great opportunity like Wang Buli to become a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty.

He would never reveal this kind of secret to anyone in his life.

Unless he tells his biological heirs before he dies, or even his biological heirs won't tell him. "

Zhu Yuanzhang had already made a judgment about Wang Buli, and he was of great use to the Ming Dynasty.

There is nothing wrong in bringing up the retro movement.

There was even a separation between family and friends, and there were some things he would not say to the princes.

Lao Zhu has grown into a highly sensitive person. He is walking on thin ice while sitting on the throne and wants to support Ming Dynasty to go further!

Fortunately, Lao Zhu believed that he still had the queen and a good eldest son to accompany him.

To be honest, you are using Confucianism’s spear to attack your Confucianism’s shield.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not answer his son's words, maybe.

Who said that it was an issue raised by Jijiu and the Chief Registrar on their own initiative? It was in the name of the Imperial College, and you cannot impeach the two of them.

Zhu Biao was silent for a long time, and then said: "In fact, some ministers can be trusted. They all want to leave their names in history, and they don't all want to go further."

As for the cold in the north, could it be that our soldiers and people who guard the border in the Ming Dynasty don't have to live there?

In the morning of the next day, he gave advice to the official.

Unfortunately, Lao Zhu knew the death dates of the two most important people to him in the world.

If any of you want to go to the northern realm to train as an official, we, the prince, can still consider allowing it according to our own circumstances.

Since they are recruiting scholars for the country, what happens if they go to a bitter and cold place to gain experience?

I didn't see that all the Korean princes were on the list. They didn't complain and were willing to go. You guys are really too lazy to worry about it.

Zhu Yuanzhang replied leisurely, and told his son not to always act like a woman.

It's a pity that Zhu Wenzheng taught Lao Zhu a lesson. Even his own nephew who is capable can't do it, let alone other capable people?

Anyone who leaks a little bit of clues does not need to be highly valued and used to kill chickens and monkeys.

There is no need to question this.

We can only keep cleaning and checking and balancing!

Mostly those who have the ability become dead so that he can sleep peacefully.

Maybe my attitude will change after I have children in the future.

Zhu Biao sent the printed Romance of the Three Kingdoms to his father to check for errors.

After all, the original manuscript has been treasured by Wang Buli.

But he looked around, trying to figure out who to trust, but no one could completely reassure him.

Because they are a real family!

Everyone has selfish motives, why do you expect them to be sincere?

Prince Zhu Biao explained and refuted each point, leaving the officials speechless.

No one expected that Zhu Biao would become so tough.

Zhu Biao was shocked and at a loss by these words.

When he is about to sit in this position, he will understand that a person who is an emperor should be a loner.

He thought that his father would trust many people, at least those adopted sons could also be trusted.

Who said that the Imperial Academy's students' uniforms are called military uniforms, while others call them training uniforms.

"The human heart is unpredictable."

Zhu Biao's rhetorical question left the group speechless.

In the future, the Imperial College will restore the education of the Six Arts of the Gentleman, which was inherited by the Confucian sages. Don’t you support it?

But it’s so rare.

But according to his temperament, he will not become a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty.

"Dad, have you never believed him?"

He currently only trusts his sons.

As long as he didn't become a rebel, Zhu Yuanzhang planned to turn a blind eye, not to mention that he was related by marriage to his own family.

"Your father and I rarely trust people, let alone him. Is there any minister in the dynasty whom we can truly trust?"

Zhu Biao's eyes showed shock.

Even though Lao Zhu has become relatives with many distinguished people, that sense of trust has long since disappeared.

Why does he have a trace of Lao Zhu?

Could it be that teachers like Song Lian were not around and were affected by the Emperor's presence?

To be honest, no one among the courtiers wanted to go to that bitter and cold place in the north.

Winter is cold and bitter. I heard that you have to carry a stick with you when peeing outside to avoid freezing.

They also have to deal with sudden attacks by the Mongols from time to time. The population is sparse and it is not easy to achieve political results.

Who wants to endure hardship!

Being an official of the Ming Dynasty already tolerates suffering, and it would be even more unpleasant to find fault for oneself.

Hu Weiyong was also confused by the prince's words and didn't know what to refute.

He knew that it must be Wang Buli's idea behind this, and this boy was the one who influenced the prince.

"Your motherfucker."

Hu Weiyong cursed secretly in his heart, Wang Buli really had the ability to be a litigant.

All these ideas and skills were put to use on him.

This is really unreasonable.

Zhu Yuanzhang sat comfortably on the dragon chair, looking at the unconfident looks on the faces of these ministers, and he felt happy in his heart.

To be honest, our emperor is really not good at eloquence and likes to speak with a knife.

But today he finally discovered that in terms of eloquence, he was able to silence these people who claimed to be good at eloquence, and the feeling of pride in his heart was really good.

Our son-in-law has a very quick mind.

However, it also shows from the side that the system we have established is indeed full of loopholes and flaws.

Prime Minister Hu Weiyong could only call Lu Ben, the newly appointed Minister of Rites, hoping that he could go to the Imperial College.

In any case, the Imperial College is under the control of the Ministry of Rites.

Lu Ben knew how he became the Minister of Rites. It was because his daughter Lu was pregnant.

But I don’t know if it’s a boy or a girl yet.

Lu Ben was also unwilling to cause trouble by going against his son-in-law Zhu Biao just after he took office.

Lu Ben also heard clearly what was said in the main hall today.

On the surface, the prince was safeguarding the affairs of the Imperial College, but in fact, whether Li Wenzhong or Wang Buli were sent to serve in the Imperial College, it was all the emperor's will.

Lu Ben did not dare to offend the Prime Minister Hu Weiyong easily. He just kept saying that he would take time to investigate.

When a new official takes office, he must set fire to show his presence no matter what.

But in fact, Lu Ben knew very well how the previous Minister of Rites died.

Wang Buli, this son-in-law, is so favored by the emperor that even your majestic prime minister dare not ignore his talent. Instead, he asked me to make trouble for him.

If I really do what you, the Prime Minister, want, Chun Chun will be unhappy for myself.

Lu Ben previously worked as a laborer in the Temple of Meritorious Ministers, and was demoted to Peking to eat sand. After finally coming back, he did not want to offend the emperor.

In addition, his daughter is also pregnant. If a prince is born, he will be more stable in his life.

The reason why Lu Ben was unwilling to get involved in Hu Weiyong's affairs was because he only had a daughter who was closely tied to Prince Zhu Biao.

He didn't bother to cling to anyone.

What's more, the lesson the emperor gave him was profound enough.

After Lu Ben returned to the Ministry of Rites, he found Dalu and Quan, who were also encouraged by the emperor, and asked him to go to the Imperial College to see the mental outlook of the students.

Everything requires his intervention as the Minister of Rites. If irreversible trouble occurs, that would be the worst thing.

Let others check the road first.

Dalu and Quan were barbarians, but they were admitted as Jinshi in the Yuan Dynasty. Fortunately, they were sent abroad in the later period and did not return to the desert to be buried as sacrifices, nor did they die among the rebels.

Before entering the Ming Dynasty, Dalu and Quan ran back to their hometown in Henan and were in poverty. They had nothing to eat. Fortunately, they were recommended in the sixth year of Hongwu and were able to eat the imperial food.

Dalu and Quan rode donkeys and entered the Imperial Academy at the age of more than sixty years old. They were shocked at once.

Why are these scholars still training in military uniforms?

Dalu and Quan grabbed the reins of the donkey. Is it possible that His Majesty is going to use large-scale troops against Beiyuan?

But the Ming Dynasty has many soldiers and generals. If these scholars are used to fight on the front line, isn't it overkill?

When the Hanlin editor came to see him, Li Wenzhong was extremely surprised.

As the number of people on the list increases, he has begun to take charge of the coaching staff. The average person has very low control when facing a team of thousands of people. Even if he organizes a spring outing for dozens of people, various mistakes will occur.

Li Wenzhong first asked Dalu and Quan to go to the room to stay for a while, and then went to communicate with him after he rested.

Dalu and Quan did not dare to get angry with Cao Guogong. He was so old and had suffered hardships, so he waited obediently.

Anyway, my old friend said, I just came here to take a look, it’s best not to find out anything, just take it easy.

So Dalu and Quan picked up the Romance of the Three Kingdoms on Li Wenzhong's desk and read it.

In the room, Wang Buli put away a lot of registration forms, and these people were almost finished.

Zhu Biao dismissed more people. More than 2,000 people signed up, and Wang Buli admitted more than 1,800 people.

After these people go to the north, they will be arranged to serve as local magistrates and officials in the county government. If they are lucky, they will become assistant officials of the county magistrate, and they can even enter the military camp as a logistics officer to gain experience.

Those who were brave enough to serve as envoys directly went to North Korea, Liaodong and other places to work for the Ming Dynasty.

Although Song Lian and others believed that Wang Buli's arrangement was overqualified and underqualified, students like us should have been admitted to the Jinshi examination, but ended up becoming officials.

This is so ironic.

But now the deal is done, and no one can stop them from pursuing their future.

The difference is that they don't have to wait nine years for a promotion.

Wang Buli had no idea about receiving officials sent by the Ministry of Rites.

He looked at Luo Guanzhong's happy expression, which was much more interesting than the reception official.

The interview has come to an end, and after the training is over, they will be asked to go home and stay for a while.

After all, many students are outsiders and were dragged here by Lao Zhu.

When Wang Buli returned home after his shift, he discovered that officials from the Ministry of Rites had already come to his home.

The farm rewarded by the emperor was assigned to Yong'an Village, and the people there became tenants of the Princess Mansion.

Moreover, the princess palace in the city is also under construction, and the wedding will not be held until it is completed.

Wang Buli's family was extremely happy. His son suddenly owned so much land, and there were tenants to pay rent to them.

These people no longer need to pay rent to the court. In other words, they have become the private property of the princess.

"The Emperor is quite generous."

Wang Buli couldn't help but praise.

"Don't be too happy too early. The people of Yong'an Village may not necessarily think what they think."

The old father mentioned it. After all, the land used to belong to them, but with the emperor’s order, it all became the land of the princess, and they changed from farmers to tenants.

"Ah."

Wang Buli nodded. He was kind to the people who died in Yong'an Village. He never thought that Lao Zhu would directly ask the whole village to repay his kindness.

This is so in line with his usual style of doing things.

"I will find a way to solve this matter."

Wang Buli nodded lightly. Lao Zhu had already painted the ground, and he just happened to assemble the stove first and then sell it to the court.

By the way, I found an opportunity to teach the students in the Imperial College the art of rolling briquettes, which would be considered a good skill.

There are also many coal mountains around Peiping, and probably no one uses them to keep warm.

Unfortunately, the place where Chongzhen hanged himself is called Meishan but there is really no coal;

You still have to go to Mentougou in Xishan Mountain to mine, which is a vast area of ​​coal mines.

It was not until the Chenghua period that ministers proposed to replace firewood with coal to alleviate the heating shortage.

By the Qing Dynasty, the use of coal in the capital's fuel system had become dominant.

Firewood and charcoal are expensive and are mostly used by wealthy people.

People use cheaper coal for heating, and there are also fewer firewood collectors.

Since the Ming Dynasty moved its capital to Beijing, many surrounding trees have been cut down for heating.

At this time, there was no concept of environmental protection. As long as I didn't cut down the noble family's trees, no one would cause trouble for me.

In the middle of winter, the whole family is freezing to death, so why do I care about a tree?

The next day, Wang Buli took the county government servants and rode his little Heizi towards Yong'an Village.

Yesterday, people from the Ministry of Rites went to Yong'an Village to inform them of this matter. All this land was allocated by the emperor to the princess.

After receiving the news, many old men in Yong'an Village began discussions overnight.

Want to find out if the consort is Wang Buli?

After all, the emperor has so many daughters, and the village is outside Nanjing. After being divided, if the main family is not good, then everyone's life will be difficult in the future.

If it were Wang Buli, the Prince Consort, then everyone would still have some confidence.

Just by relying on what the consort does, he will be a good person and everyone will have a good life.

The officials from the Ministry of Rites only told them the title of the princess and told them to be prepared. Otherwise, these bastards didn't deserve to know.

They didn't even bother to say a word.

Therefore, the people in Yong'an Village were in a state of uneasiness.

They wanted to ask Master Dianshi, but they didn't dare.

Even though it is near Nanjing City, the imperial power applies here even if it does not go to the countryside.

Even the county magistrate will not come down, Wang Buli is a god.

When passing through other villages, the people working in the fields saw Mr. Dianshi coming, and they all took the initiative to say hello, and some even knelt down to salute.

After entering Yong'an Village, Li Zheng and others hurriedly came to greet him.

Wang Buli, who was riding a horse, saw the crowd coming and said:

"We can be considered acquaintances. We have also met. From now on, you will all be the princess's tenants. If I marry the princess, you will also be my tenants.

I don't like to bully others. Everyone is gathered together and I'm going to tell you a few rules. "

"Yes."

When the chief saw that Wang Buli was coming, the smile on his face became much more obvious, and he quickly sent someone to call for him.

The whole village came to the wheat field together, waiting for the prince-in-law to lecture him.

Wang Buli also took Wen Ke and others as well as the household officials, and asked them to go door to door to make a roster.

"Many of you have never seen me, but you have all heard of my name. At that time, someone reported to the police that Yu Sheng and his wife were brutally murdered, so I handled the matter in accordance with the law.

But I never thought that the emperor would give this piece of land to the couple of us, and we would go around in circles, and we would have to live together in the future. "

Wang Buli first made some connections, showing that he had been arranged and that everyone had been friends before.

"I will say a few things below, I hope everyone will remember them."

"First, we don't bully others, but others shouldn't bully us either. It's best for everyone to live their own lives in peace."

Hearing this, the villagers in Yong'an Village had a bit of smile on their faces, which showed that Wang Buli was willing to support them.

Compared to others, aside from Wang Buli's identity as Prince Consort, Dian Shi alone could travel sideways in the surrounding countryside.

“Secondly, the matter of renting is the basis for your livelihood.

The law of the Ming Dynasty stipulates that the tax per acre for official land is five liters, three combined with five scoops, for civilian land it is reduced by two liters, for re-rented land it is eight liters, five combined for five scoops, and for unofficial land it is one dou or two liters.

I, Wang Buli, don’t need to charge you so much rent. I am a prince-in-law and I don’t need the rations you have.

Only when everyone can live a better life can our Ming Dynasty be shown to be stronger than the previous dynasty.

In this case, you can just pay two liters of tax per mu of grain. "

After Wang Buli stretched out two fingers, the director and others couldn't believe it.

I thought that after becoming a tenant, I would have to live according to the master's face, and how much I received was their business.

I never thought that the prince-in-law would be so generous and not compete with the people for profit.

"I'd like to thank you, Prince Consort, for your kindness."

"Master Qingtian!"

The head of Yong'an Village knelt down and kowtowed first, followed by a large group of people.

Many children didn't know what was going on, so they were all dragged to their knees.

In fact, Lao Zhu is really trying to pay taxes and recuperate.

Taxes in the Song, Yuan and Qing Dynasties were much higher than those in the Ming Dynasty.

But, there are exceptions.

For example, in Zhang Shicheng's former territory, the taxes were extremely heavy!

Ordinary people paid five liters of grain, while people in Suzhou and other places had to pay eight buckets of grain.

Lao Zhu's revenge is so simple and unpretentious. Who asked you local people to worship you without paying your respects, and even took the initiative to defend the city for Zhang Shicheng? If I don't do something to you bunch of rebellious people, who will do it?

As soon as Wang Buli said these words, Wen Ke and others also winked and were very excited.

I heard that the Prince Consort would also like to select some craftsmen to settle here.

Should we take the opportunity to move our household registration here?

In this way, not only do we no longer have to perform labor for the court, but we can also keep most of the harvested food in our own hands.

Good days like this are really rare!
