I open a history tutorial class in Daming

Chapter 173 If you let the cat out of the bag, your entire family will be killed!
Li Shanchang's words did not arouse Zhu Yuanzhang's disgust.

Because he knew that in terms of planning and various abilities, Li Shanchang was actually no worse than Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling who were around Li Er.

To be honest, although Changsun Wuji and others were the heroes of the Xuanwu Gate Incident and had been following Li Er when he was still the King of Qin, the Xuanwu Gate Incident, although famous, was far less difficult than Zhu Yuanzhang's rise to power.

It should be noted that when Li Shimin staged a palace coup to seize the throne, his status had already far exceeded that of ordinary princes. He had many elite soldiers and generals, as well as counselors and generals. In addition, he had personally fought for Li Yuan in his teens. He won the hearts of the people much more than Crown Prince Li Jiancheng.

Such a capable, courageous and powerful prince has everything ready except the east wind. As long as the plan is proper, it is really not difficult for him to seize the throne.

Compared with him, the way Zhu Yuanzhang started his career was a nightmare.

Not to mention that he was a cowherd who had to become a monk to beg after his family was destroyed, even if he later joined the Red Turban Army and climbed up from a private to the position of army leader, it was already very difficult.

When Li Shanchang started to work with Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yuanzhang was already halfway established, with troops and horses, and he married Ma Xiuying, the son-in-law of Guo Zixing. Otherwise, how could Li Shanchang follow him? Li Shanchang had no ability to read faces, so could he have predicted that a soldier could become emperor?

However, even if Zhu Yuanzhang knew that Li Shanchang had bet on him because of these things, it would not affect his belief that Li Shanchang was capable.

At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, many heroes were fighting for supremacy. There were so many soldiers and horses, and even in the internally divided Red Turban Army, there were many people who were as strong as him. However, Li Shanchang chose his leg to hug, which was enough to show that he had a very good vision. It is not self-boasting, but it is a fact that the person who sat on the throne in the end was called Zhu Yuanzhang.

half an hour.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly and looked at Zhu Di:

"Fourth, what do you say?"

In fact, Zhu Di was very surprised when he met Li Shanchang. Not only because of his final fate, but also because when he was young, he and his brothers had listened to Li Shanchang's lectures in the Daben Hall. Even though Li Shanchang's title was the Prince's Tutor, since he had taught, there was a teacher-student relationship. His attitude was generally fine, but he would not be too offensive.

Zhu Di didn't talk to Li Shanchang because he knew that his father was in the late 10th year of Hongwu, and the earth-shaking Hu Weiyong case was probably brewing. He didn't know how much Li Shanchang was involved. In order to avoid being criticized by his father again, Zhu Di didn't have much contact with Li Shanchang.

But now it seems that at least the emperor will still listen to the opinion of this Korean minister, and the relationship does not seem to be so strained...

After thinking for a while, Zhu Di replied:
"After listening to the opinions of my classmates and Mr. Song, I discussed it with the prince. His opinion is similar to that of Duke Han. They both want to build a port around Yingtian Prefecture. He studied and grew up in Yingtian Prefecture when he was a child and has deep feelings for Yingtian. This is why he doesn't want to move the capital to Beiping, but it doesn't necessarily have to be Yingtian. He just wants to make Yingtian a better place."

"The strategy decided upon after previous discussions is to move the capital to Beiping, but we don't need to spend too much effort on water transport. We will have to fight Japan to dig for gold and silver in the future, so we can directly build ports near Yingtian and Beiping. Although Beiping is not by the sea, it is not far from the port. At that time, goods and water transport between the north and the south can be carried out by sea. Sea vessels are more convenient, have a deeper draft, and can carry more."

"As long as there are no Japanese pirates harassing us, this is the most labor-saving and convenient method."

At this point, Zhu Di paused and added:
"But we didn't expect to raise the level of Yingtian Prefecture and attract more outsiders to do business. The old ones are still the best. Han Guogong's words are really precious."

Li Shanchang received the goodwill that he had finally shown, but Li Shanchang did not dare to speak carelessly.

God knows what happened when Zhu Di became emperor?

No matter who Zhu Yuanzhang was suspicious of, it was impossible for him to be suspicious of Zhu Biao. No matter who Zhu Biao rebelled against, it was impossible for him to rebel against Zhu Yuanzhang. Therefore, it is difficult to say why Zhu Biao did not become the emperor in the end and why Zhu Di ascended the throne instead.

Given how much importance Your Majesty holds the Crown Prince in, if I say something wrong and offend the Crown Prince, the consequences would be more serious than directly offending Your Majesty.

Everyone sitting in this tutoring class is a smart person. Even the inexperienced ones, Zhu Qizhen and Zhu Youjian, have been emperors for many years and can still see through the twists and turns in the ministers' minds.

Therefore, everyone could see what Li Shanchang was worried about, but everyone was in a bad mood and no one explained the situation to him, let alone told him that Zhu Di was a good emperor and Zhu Yuanzhang's attitude towards him was also very good.

On the podium.

Song Shen heard what they were discussing, and naturally also heard what Zhu Di said about discussing with the prince. He couldn't help but feel emotional again.

This broken system is really awesome. With so many sliced ​​students, they can actually continue along the trajectory of the original world after class. How much computing power does the system need to construct so many dreams?
Although he was amazed, Song Shen waited for a few minutes, and then asked Zhu Biao to collect everyone's score sheets and take a look.

He opened the side of the podium and pulled out a projector.

It was not the kind of projection like PPT projection, but something similar to what he had used when he was in school. By putting the paper under the lens, the contents on the paper could be clearly projected onto the screen.

"This is everyone's scoring result. We'll go through them one by one. It's fair, just and open."

Song Shen projected all the tables, and the last piece of paper he put up was his own score for Zhu Di's paper.

"Including me, there are a total of fifteen people participating in the scoring. Remove the highest and lowest scores, that is, the total score divided by 13. Student Zhu Di, your score this time is 76 points."

He smiled and nodded slightly to Zhu Di below:

"Not bad, passing, just a little bit away from being good."

Zhu Di breathed a sigh of relief.

The full score is 76, and he got 79. Although this score is not very good, it is not very low either. The respondents can participate in self-evaluation, and it is not very useful to give yourself a high score, because the highest score will be removed, so Zhu Di just gave himself a score of .

After everyone discussed what was written on the paper, Zhu Di also realized the omissions. He did not consider many aspects when answering the questions. Everyone gave him such a score, which was very respectful. As for the strategy he later re-determined after listening to the advice, it was not within the scope of the exam, because the paper had been submitted and it was impossible to change it as he wanted.

"Thank you for showing mercy."

Zhu Di stood up and bowed to everyone:

"I found many problems after submitting this answer sheet. I am satisfied with this score. If you have any suggestions or comments, please feel free to talk to me at any time. If it is really useful, I will remember this kindness."

He had been warned by his father before not to speak carelessly in front of Song Shen and not to let Song Shen realize that all of them were real people. So Zhu Di did not make any promises on the spot, saying that he would reward him handsomely after the task was accomplished. Instead, he only said that he would remember the favor. Everyone present could understand what he meant.

really.

Zhang Liang's eyes flickered slightly, and he looked at Zhu Di with a smile:

"I've heard from you that the Shenjiying of the Yongle Dynasty was already the best in the world at that time. I wonder if I can discuss this with Mr. Zhu Di later?"

Zhu Di: ...Zhu Di really wanted to tell Zhang Liang that you in the Han Dynasty couldn’t even forge iron tools at that time, let alone make firearms and cannons. If you copy their methods and make firearms, they would still explode. It would be meaningless.

But in the end he held back and didn't respond directly.

After all, Zhang Liang is different from Li Shimin. He is a strategist who has entered the Temple of Martial Arts. Even if he is limited by the times a thousand years ago, he may not need to ask him for help in the future.

In the entire tutoring class, except for Zhu Qizhen and Zhu Youjian, each of them is a famous expert in a certain field. Whether it is fighting a war, making national policies, or dealing with some people in the court, he may need to ask these people. Since he has a bad relationship with Li Shimin and cannot rely on Fang Xuanling and Zhangsun Wuji around him, it is better to directly win over the strategist Zhang Liang.

Isn’t this level of strategy better than those two people in Zhenguan period?

"You're welcome. I'm at your service anytime."

Zhu Di very politely told Zhang Liang that he didn't need to be polite to him. Zhang Liang guessed his purpose and didn't say much, just smiled and agreed.

Everyone gets what they need, and no one loses out.

at this time.

On the podium, Song Shen had already taken out another paper and started projecting it.

"Now let's take a look at the second student's answer sheet—"

"This is Zhu Qizhen's. Uh, you guys take a look first. I won't comment on it."

Song Shen's face was full of indescribable expression. He didn't really want to comment on Bao Zong's masterpiece, so he rolled his eyes and looked at someone sitting in the seat.

"By the way, Li Shanchang, you are new here. Anyway, you will not be involved in the grading today. It's just right. Come with me to the office. I will give you a copy of the previous lecture materials and tell you about the current situation of the students in the class."

"I'll go sort out the documents first. When you're done, come into my office. No need to knock."

After saying that, he actually walked down from the podium in a dignified manner, opened the door of the office next door and walked in.

Everyone in the classroom looked at each other.

More importantly, he regained his scrutiny and vigilance towards Li Shanchang.

"Zhu Yuanzhang, aren't you going to explain?"

Liu Che was careless, but his words were quite oppressive:
"I advise you to explain it clearly to this newcomer, Mr. Li, first, so that he won't say something wrong and implicate everyone. After he goes in to find Mr. Song, he can explain it to us."

"It was strange that he joined the class. No one was notified. Now Mr. Song even asked him to come to his office to talk alone. This is not a treatment that ordinary new students can get."

"Speaking of fame, apart from the four of us who came in the first batch, the most famous and accomplished ones among the later comers are Li Shimin and Yongzheng. However, neither of them was called in for a private chat. Yet, this prime minister who is no longer the prime minister has received such treatment—"

"Zhu Yuanzhang, you and I are the same kind of people. Don't tell me you don't think there's something weird going on."

Zhu Yuanzhang remained silent.

He and Liu Che are indeed the same type of people.

He is very suspicious. He can be very nice to the ministers he likes, but he would kill everyone in the family of those he dislikes or who angers him.

There was something weird about Li Shanchang's appearance from beginning to end. Zhu Yuanzhang originally planned to wait until the get out of class was over to make things clear.

But now, Li Shanchang was called to Song Shen’s office for a private chat, so he couldn’t delay any longer.

"Let's explain it to him."

Zhu Yuanzhang threw down a sentence and pulled Li Shanchang to the corner of the classroom, where there was no one within five meters around, so they could ensure that they would not be heard by others.

When he was dragged away, Li Shanchang's liver was trembling.

When he reached a safe place, his first reaction was to explain that he absolutely knew nothing, but he was interrupted by Zhu Yuanzhang before he could open his mouth.

Zhu Yuanzhang stared into his eyes with a very serious tone.

"Li Shanchang, let me explain this to you clearly, and you should remember it clearly. If you forget what I am going to say next while talking to the master, you will definitely lose your life when you return."

After saying this, Zhu Yuanzhang did not delay and continued:
"The man who gave the lecture just now, we call him Mr. Song, his name is Song Shen. Don't use that expression, he is the eldest grandson of Song Lian's family who fell and blinded an eye."

"Everyone in the class is real, living, and only emperors and generals can enter this tutoring class, but Song Shen thinks we are all fake people, all souls. He thinks his lessons will not affect the real world, so he has no scruples."

"If he knew we were all real people, there would be no more classes in the future. This tutoring class is very important. As long as everyone has good grades or gets praise from Song Shen, they will have the opportunity to buy some magical items. Grains that can produce a thousand kilograms per mu are a lot, and there are also blueprints for firearms that can be fired without ignition. You should know the amount."

"You don't need to know anything else for now. We will explain it to you when we get out. But in front of Song Shen, you have to be careful and don't reveal that all of us are real people. He won't ask you about it. You should answer according to your own thoughts. Except for this one thing, the rest is fine. Do you understand?"

Li Shanchang was a great contributor to the founding of the Ming Dynasty. Since he was conferred the title of Duke, Zhu Yuanzhang seldom spoke to him in such harsh terms. Even if they had disagreements or disputes, Zhu Yuanzhang would just lose his temper and cut his salary, but would still save his face.

But even if Zhu Yuanzhang didn't get angry now and just gave a simple warning, Li Shanchang's hair stood on end.

He could see that if he failed to help His Majesty in this matter, his family would be destroyed and his property confiscated.

A heinous crime!
Li Shanchang gritted his teeth and held back his fear, bowing his hands:

"I will remember this!"
