golden scales

In this era without a perfect education system, which school is the best?

Of course it is homework.

If the father is a great Confucian of the generation, the friends he makes are unlikely to be mixed, and the teacher group composed of these people is the most selfless in teaching the next generation.This is also the reason for the birth of the powerful family. Once someone finds a way, he will definitely pass it on to his sons and nephews and shine on the family.

Zhu Cihong is the crown prince of Huang Ming, and judging from the current state, succession to the throne is a sure thing.However, he still has an identity, which he sometimes ignores inadvertently.

That is: Zhu Youjian's eldest son, Zhu's son.

Family, country and world, this is a man's responsibility from light to heavy.Zhu Cihong has already provoked the burden of a great country in the world, and must also find a way of prosperity for his family.

Among the Zhu Ming clan, there are many people who are far-sighted and courageous like the kings of the Tang Dynasty; there are also some who are good at calligraphy and rhythm, and are obsessed with literature and art like the kings of Lu; mutual hobby.These people are tall, with good conditions, and their family education is better than that of the local rich.If the power of the clan can be gathered together and ride on the same chariot, it will definitely be a big help.

"The dragon has nine sons, but the sons are different. Which family doesn't have the arrogant and extravagant sons? However, being born in the clan has become an excuse for people with ulterior motives to attack me." Zhu Cihong said: "Before the country changed, there were indeed some vassal kings. I don’t know the general situation, and I’m the laughingstock of the world. But you should know that my Zhu family has been in existence for 300 years, with hundreds of thousands of descendants, and there are not only a few fools.”

"What Your Highness said is true." Zhu Changjie said: "It is embarrassing that the names of the virtuous kings of all ages have been tarnished by their unworthy descendants."

"So I asked you to become King Zheng, just to give you a name to do something for the country and the world." Zhu Cihong persuaded: "Your family has profound knowledge, instead of hiding in the palace and writing, it is better to come out and teach Disciples and disciples, set an example for the clansmen in the world."

"Your Highness... I'm afraid this is against the rules." Zhu Changjie said in fear.

"Don't be obsessed with the rules in the chapters and sentences, but see the original intention of the ancestors." Zhu Cihong put one hand on his shoulder, patted him lightly, and said: "Isn't the ancestors entrusting the sons and enfeoffing the vassal states just to protect the country?"

"Your Highness, it's really taboo to gather people together..." Zhu Changjie said.

There are many academies of the Ming Dynasty, and various great Confucians gather to give lectures, and they have never had any scruples.In fact, the academy has thus become a place for discussing politics and a political force.Zhu Changjie knows that civil servants can do this, because the era no longer has heroes like Cao Cao and Wang Mang.However, if the clan, especially the princes of the vassals, dared to do this, they might be made a fuss at any time.

Isn't that how Zhang Juzheng plotted against the King of Liao?

……

Zhang Juzheng's grandfather was originally a bodyguard of the Liao Palace. When Zhang Juzheng was young, he had a relationship with Liaomin King Zhu Xian?become good friends.However, Zhang Juzheng was very precocious. He entered school at the age of five, mastered the Six Classics at the age of seven, was a scholar at the age of 12, and was a scholar at the age of 16. This was because Gu Lin, the governor of Huguang at the time, deliberately failed him and sharpened him.

With such a playmate, King Xiao Liao is taught by his mother every day: to learn like Zhang Juzheng, to be a smart, sensible and love-reading child like Zhang Juzheng... and King Xiao Liao is a character like Li Yu, so the pressure can be great One can imagine.

Under such pressure, King Xiao Liao did something that he later regretted.On the pretext of celebrating Zhang Juzheng's success, he invited Zhang Juzheng's grandfather to the palace and drank alcohol desperately, and finally caused Zhang's old guard to die of drunkenness.Zhang Juzheng didn't have an attack at that time, and King Xiao Liao also thought that Zhang Juzheng forgave his "unintentional mistake", innocent and innocent.

Thirty years later, Zhang Juzheng entered the cabinet as prime minister, instigated the governor of Huguang to collect evidence of King Luo Liao's crime, and stabbed him in front of the emperor.Emperor Longqing sent Hong Chaoxuan, the servant of the Criminal Department, and Cheng Yaoxiang, the commander of Jinyiwei, to Jingzhou to investigate the crimes, but they did not get the hard evidence they wanted.However, in order to express his grievances, the king of Liao erected a banner in the palace and wrote a letter: "The banner of injustice".

These four characters only indicated that he himself had grievances, but they were interpreted by the civil servants ordered by Zhang Juzheng as: rise up.

So the Liao king was deposed as a commoner and imprisoned to death.

The matter was not over yet. When Emperor Wanli liquidated Zhang Juzheng, he confiscated Zhang Juzheng's house on the grounds of the King Liao case.

The more Zhu Changjie reads, the more she knows, and the years of fleeing, the more she cherishes the hard-won happy life in front of her, and she is sincerely unwilling to take any more risks.Although he is confident that he has never sinned against anyone, the censor of Ming Dynasty will take a bite for no reason, not to mention that the Donggong Guoben in front of him is not a law-abiding person.

Zhu Cihong carefully analyzed Zhu Changjie's expression and body language.It can be felt that the Dongyuan King is grateful to him, but at the same time keeps a distance and is afraid.He didn't want to force others to do something, since King Dongyuan refused, there was no need to force him.

"Since that's the case," Zhu Cihong said, "I'm asking you to go to Jinan to teach Ding and Yong two kings about arithmetic. This is always acceptable."

Zhu Changjie was about to say no.

Zhu Cihong said again: "The Holy Majesty has already issued a decree to call on the vassals to go to the line. You should have gone to Jinan first, and it is against the decree to go back to Huaiqing without authorization."

Zhu Changjie had no choice but to lower her head and whisper: "I dare not violate the sacred order, so I pack up my money and set off for Jinan."

Zhu Cihong didn't answer, still feeling a little depressed about being rejected, just looking at the garden layout of Prince Zheng's Mansion.

The regulations of Prince Zheng's Mansion are the same as the rules set by Emperor Taizu Gao, and it is much more shabby and dilapidated than the mansions of the direct princes such as Qin Wang and Jin Wang.Perhaps because they were born as bastards, King Zheng's family knew better about keeping a low profile.Zhu Houtan himself has been wearing coarse cloth clothes since he was a child. From this point of view, he will not have a child who is arrogant and extravagant.

Seeing that the Crown Prince was silent, Zhu Changjie knew that the Crown Prince was unhappy, and was at a loss what to do.When he was dripping with cold sweat, he saw a soldier strode forward, gave a military salute, and said loudly: "Your Highness, military report!"

Zhu Changjie immediately left as if she had received an amnesty.

Zhu Cihong didn't keep him, and took the military newspaper and read it.

This military report was just a good news from Xiao Mo, reporting the results of the Second Battalion of the [-]st Guards Division against the invading Qing soldiers from the [-]th to the [-]th of December.It lists all kinds of spoils in detail, as well as the battle damage that the Qing army can check.

The corners of Zhu Cihong's mouth turned up, and the previous gloom completely dissipated.He walked briskly under the covered bridge, exited Prince Zheng's Mansion through the side door, and walked across a street to the official office of the General Staff Headquarters.

"Donglu is here to deliver New Year's goods!" Zhu Cihong couldn't help laughing as soon as he entered the door: "If you keep adding fuel to fight like this, even though the strength is ten times mine, it will eventually be exhausted!"

You Shiwei and other staff officers hurriedly got up to greet them, and followed Zhu Cihong directly into the war room.

In the war room, there are sand tables in Beizhi, Shanshan, Henan, Jingxiang and other places, and there are differences in the degree of refinement due to the actual control areas.

You Shiwei took a bamboo whip, pointed at Pangjiazhuang with a red flag, and said: "Your Highness, the main force of the second battalion of the [-]st Guards Division of our army is now gathered here, and will not let go along the Zhulong River." I clicked on the small city model, and said: "The captive general Suo Hai retreated and gathered the defeated soldiers here, the number of them is about [-]."

"There are 5000 people, now there are only [-]." Zhu Cihong smiled and took a ruler to measure it, and converted the ratio: "A retreat of [-] miles is really a big defeat."

You Shiwei said: "The ministers and others are studying the military information submitted in this battle report. Among them, what Wang Jiakang, the Colonel of the [-]th Headquarters of the [-]nd Battalion said, is quite worthy of discussion."

"Oh? Tell me." Zhu Cihong stared at the sand table, looking at the small ceramic men and horses, as if seeing his own army, revealing a deep feeling of intimacy.

"Colonel Wang Jiakang proposed to improve the tactics of the phalanx: filling the phalanx with gunners can increase the attack firepower of the phalanx, just like firearms behind the fortifications, and disperse the current enemy formation. At the same time, fill the space between the phalanx with artillery and firecrackers , protected by mandarin duck formations. Enemies dispersed by the phalanx are attacked intensively, just like artificial passes. Finally, cavalry is used to pursue the enemy when they retreat, which can increase the results of the battle.

"This can be summarized into two points: first, our army's medium and long-range strike power is extremely weak, please add firecrackers. Second, our army's phalanx division is extremely poor in combat mobility, please deploy cavalry." You Shiwei said Then, his complexion became heavy: "Your sons fought the enemy bravely without any fear, and the soldiers of the Eastern Captives have nothing to say. It is just that the casualties are increased because of the lack of armaments. It is really unbearable."

Zhu Cihong just nodded, but did not speak. (To be continued.)
