Ming Dynasty: Every day, Zhu Yuanzhang is in trouble

Prince Zhu Gui of Qi had a sinister look on his face.

Even the smile seemed a little cruel.

But one can also see that he is very happy.

The reason for this was that he had found the opportunity to poison Mei Yin.

Originally, he thought it would be around August 15th.

At that time, some moon cakes would be made in the palace.

It will also be sent to Mei Yin and others.

But he felt that it took too long and he couldn't wait any longer.

He didn't want Mei Yin to live any longer.

Fortunately, now he has thought of a closer date.

This date means that his sister, Princess Ningguo, is about to give birth.

It won't take more than two months at most.

By that time, the palace will definitely send a lot of things.

Some necessary food is indispensable here.

That is the chance to take action on my own and deal with Mei Yin!
No one could have imagined that the food sent out from the palace would be poisonous.

No matter how cautious that bastard Mei Yin is, he can't prevent it!

Therefore, this bastard Mei Yin is definitely going to die!

Among the food given out at that time, some were not suitable for women to eat during the confinement period.

He put the poison in there himself.

Make sure to poison Mei Yin to death without harming his own sister.

Of course, if my sister insisted on eating it, she would be poisoned to death.
There's nothing I can do about it.

It's her own fault that she has to get ahead of others.

If you die, you will die.

He also felt that he had done his best.

Once again, I carefully thought out my plan in my mind.

I felt happier and happier.

I feel that it is a perfect plan. Mei Yin will definitely die this time and no one can save him!

……

Over in Shuangshui Village, Mei Yin and Princess Ningguo were enjoying a quiet moment.

The sunlight becomes soft after passing through the glass and a thin layer of gauze curtains.

The two of them lay side by side on the recliner.

There is a small coffee table next to it, with tea, fruits and other snacks on it.

Take a sip of tea, put a few fruits in your mouth and chew them slowly.

I just feel that life is extremely comfortable.

Especially, with his young wife by his side.

This feeling is just so good!

Chatting here and there, Mei Yin just felt that the years were peaceful.

"Ouch~"

Princess Ningguo suddenly frowned and let out a soft cry.

And then it expanded rapidly.

He reached out and touched his belly.

With a smile, she said, "Husband, this little guy, is he practicing martial arts in there right now?"

Mei Yin's gaze immediately fell on Princess Ningguo.

After hearing her words, he knew what was going on and quickly looked down.

It fell on the bulging belly of his young wife.

I just saw something moving there constantly.

Sometimes, there may even be a large bulge.

"This little bastard!"

Mei Yin cursed out loud.

"If you don't learn well at such a young age, you won't be obedient even in your stomach!

If you find out, I won’t give you a spanking! "

Mei Yin said as he quickly put his hand on his belly.

You can feel this little guy kicking inside.

This feeling is very special.

As the little one grows older, the fetal movements become more and more obvious.

The little guy's strength is getting stronger and stronger.

"Did you hear that? Why don't you just be quiet?
Your dad is going to spank you!

When the time comes, if your father beats you, you can cry in front of him..."

Princess Ningguo spoke with a loving face.

I am looking forward to this little guy in my belly more and more.

"Husband, do you think our child is a boy or a girl?

This...what if it's a daughter?"

After a while, the little guy in the belly calmed down.

Princess Ningguo looked at Mei Yin and spoke.

There was some worry in his voice.

Whether the baby in the belly is a boy or a girl is a topic that usually becomes a constant topic of conversation for parents and family members after the baby is conceived.

There will be all kinds of speculation and discussion.

Until the baby is born.

"It would be best if it's a daughter, I wanted a daughter as my first child!
This is a sweet little cotton jacket!"

Mei Yin said with a smile.

There was no hesitation.

After all, in later life, he had seen too many series of stories where people were tricked into giving birth to a daughter.

Those little girls are really amazing to look at.

Besides, in the era he lived in, the concept of having a boy or a girl had long since changed.

There is a big difference from times like today.

After hearing Mei Yin's words, Ning Guo smiled.

My heart is filled with emotion.

I just feel that my husband is so good to me!
Who doesn’t want to pass on the family line?

She felt that this was her husband, who was comforting her.

I’m afraid that I’ll have some pressure in my heart.

In this case, if I really give birth to a daughter as my first child in the future.

So that I can completely put my mind at ease.

She could understand her husband's good intentions.

My husband is really caring and loving towards me in every way.

How blessed am I to be able to marry my husband?
It is normal for Princess Ningguo to think this way.

After all, the concepts of the era she lived in were completely different from those of Mei Yin at that time.

Continuing the family line is a natural thing for Princess Ningguo.

Only by giving birth to a son can you carry on the family line for your husband.

My husband's family is small.

Only my husband is left.

Naturally, I have to give birth to more sons for my husband.

Only in this way can it flourish.

Let your husband's family prosper.

Mei Yin didn't know what his young wife was thinking.

If he knew, he would definitely wave his hands.

Who can bear to have more sons?

However, he then remembered that this was during the Ming Dynasty, not the later times he was familiar with.

Well, in this day and age, it's not that bad to have more children, and there's no pressure in raising them.

For the couple, it was becoming increasingly difficult to look forward to the arrival of the baby in their belly.

From time to time, we would discuss here who this child looks more like.

I have been thinking about the child's name for several months.

I figured out several of them.

As for clothes and shoes prepared for children, there is no need to say more.

According to Mei Yin's calculations, there was only one and a half months left until the due date.

The two of them lay here and talked for a while.

Mei Yin took Princess Ningguo's hand, and they both stood up from the recliners.

Start pacing slowly here.

This was formulated by Mei Yin for Princess Ningguo.

Take more walks, which will be beneficial to production in the future.

As for the princess's diet, Mei Yin is now in charge of it personally, emphasizing balanced nutrition and a reasonable diet.

Sometimes, they even control their wife's dietary intake to a certain extent.

Don't let her eat too much.

This is to prevent the baby in the womb from growing too fast, which would be detrimental to future delivery.

In this day and age, if you really encounter a difficult childbirth, it would be really fatal.

Therefore, he would rather have the baby in his belly be smaller to facilitate delivery than to gamble...

Mei Yin and Princess Ningguo were living an extremely happy life at this time.

But they don't know that someone is about to extend his evil hand to them.

Moreover, this man is Princess Ningguo’s younger brother and Mei Yin’s brother-in-law.

They were totally unaware of this matter.

At this time, I am still immersed in my own happy time.

Looking forward to the birth of the child.

Little did they know that with the birth of their child, a great disaster would befall them.

As the saying goes, it is difficult to guard against a domestic thief.

The same principle applies to this kind of thing.

Even Mei Yin could never have imagined that Prince of Qi Zhu Gui's mind was so twisted.

Dare to do such a thing.

After walking with Princess Ningguo for a while, Mei Yin calculated the time and went to Shuangshui Village Primary School to teach.

Now, Mei Yin is also responsible for teaching arithmetic to a class.

In addition to teaching these people, he also has to teach some teachers.

However, according to Mei Yin's calculations, in about half a year, he would no longer have to participate in the specific teaching work.

By that time, all qualified arithmetic teachers had been trained.

He can just manage at the top level and set the course.

You no longer have to participate in the specific teaching in person.

It will be a lot easier by then.

"Hello, sir!"

After arriving at the classroom, the class monitor was elected first and stood up and led all the children to salute Mei Yin.

Mei Yin smiled and nodded: "Hello, students, please take a seat."

Looking at the many pairs of eyes sitting there upright, full of curiosity and thirst for knowledge.

At this time, Mei Yin had no distracting thoughts in his mind.

Among the students he accepted, very few came from wealthy families.

Most of them are children from ordinary families.

Those wealthy families who want to enroll in school have to pay a lot of money.

This is not Mei Yin trying to trick them.

After all, in name, it was a school for the children in Shuangshui Village and the surrounding area.

That being the case, those outside want to come in.

Of course, you need to pay more money...

Looking at the children sitting here, their clothes are not conspicuous, and many of them even have patches on their clothes.

Mei Yin feels deeply the weight of his responsibility.

These children will become the pillars of the Ming Dynasty and contribute to its development.

Thinking of this, he walked forward, picked up the chalk and started writing on the blackboard.

He started teaching...

Since he founded this school and brought so many children together,
Then he will definitely use all his strength to do this in the future.

At least we can't mislead the young people...

……

In the palace, after Zhu Yuanzhang handled government affairs, he had some short free time.

I began to listen to information about the school in Shuangshui Village and the teaching at the Imperial College.

After listening for a while, he nodded with satisfaction.

At this time, the Imperial Academy had already fully used the arithmetic developed by Mei Yin in its classes.

Moreover, the students admitted by the Imperial College were relatively old.
There is a certain corresponding foundation.

And he attached great importance to mathematics from the very beginning.

Under such circumstances, the mathematics taught at the Imperial College progressed very quickly.

At worst, they have already mastered the arithmetic knowledge of the first volume of the fourth grade textbook written by Mei Yin.

Follow this pace.

Zhu Yuanzhang felt that it would take no more than two years.

He will train a large number of students who are good at arithmetic.

At that time, we can start to gradually promote the survey of land and the establishment of the Yellow Book across the country.

Although through Mei Yin, he already knew about the richness overseas.

But in his opinion, the most fundamental thing for the Ming Dynasty is land.

After all, this is where many Ming people live.

Moreover, this land is also related to the livelihoods of many people in the Ming Dynasty.

Under such circumstances, how much land did the Ming Dynasty have, how many people were there, and which piece of land belonged to which person.

How is the yield per acre...

He needs to find out all these.

Only by knowing the situation clearly can we implement policies more accurately in the future and avoid chaotic politics.

It can also protect the people as much as possible and reduce their exploitation by the landlords and wealthy people.

He had wanted to do this for a long time.

But I have always refrained from doing it.

At the beginning, we asked people to count the household registrations and get some preliminary information.

As for the more important task of surveying the land, it seems particularly fatal to many people.

It will also inevitably cause resistance from many local officials, gentry and others.

Therefore, he has been keeping silent and just accumulating strength silently.

Now, his knife is almost sharpened.

The time for action is almost here.

When that time comes, I must do things well!

Clean up the mess that has been made of the country since it was occupied by the Yuan Tartars!

Sort out all the mess.

According to his original estimate, the Imperial Academy trained many useful people who went to the local areas to help survey the land.

It will take at least four more years!
Now, with the arithmetic teaching materials and corresponding accounting methods developed by Mei Yin.

But the four years were shortened to two years.

In this regard, that bastard Mei Yin deserves credit!
For this reason, Zhu Yuanzhang became more and more curious about Mei Yin.

I am increasingly wanting to simulate Mei Yin's life.

Look at how many secrets Mei Yin has...

……

Those in Jiangnan who were involved in smuggling and other things and made a lot of profits were still particularly confident at this time.

They didn't know yet that the pirates on the sea, their reliance, had been wiped out.

Zhu Yuanzhang had once again sent people to make some contact with them.
Here they use procrastination and some other methods to get around it.

The court then became silent.

In their view, this was a victory they had already achieved.

This made Old Man Zhu give up.

No more unreasonable thoughts will arise.

"Haha, let's just let old man Zhu run wild for now!

It won't be long before he knows who is the master of the sea!"

"Yes! I think that guy is just trying to scare people. He has run out of tricks now..."

These people, who were dressed in gorgeous clothes and came from wealthy families, were talking to each other here.

I was so excited.

I just feel that they have a bright future.

No one can take away these interests at sea.

Even Zhu Yuanzhang can’t do it!

……

A day later, in the Wuying Hall, Zhu Yuanzhang received urgent military intelligence sent back from the front line.

“Hahahaha…good, good, good!

It is indeed our Hongwu Cannon, it is different!"

After saying "OK" several times, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes suddenly turned cold.

The pirates outside have been dealt with.

Next, it’s time to take action against those stubborn people in Jiangnan!

He, Zhu Yuanzhang, is going to flip the table!!!
