First Prince of Ming Dynasty Chapter 327

  Chapter 327 Tian Family Love

  In fact, this will be implemented sooner or later. Most of the Beijing officials kill them because they are the source, and Zhu Yuanzhang intends to purge from top to bottom, so of course it is impossible to be lenient at the top and strict at the bottom. That would be meaningless.

If local officials also use the form of implicated companies, counting the small officials and the family members of the local law-breaking squires, tens of thousands of people may have to be killed in a state capital. It is to force local rebellion, Zhu Yuanzhang will not take this risk, but he also intends to use a state capital to make an example.

  But now that Empress Ma has interceded, Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't mind raising his hand. Cleaning up officials is a long-term policy, and there have been changes in the north, so it's good to be stable.

  Empress Ma took off her sleeves when she heard this, and the father and son didn't dare to see if she was really crying.

Zhu Yuanzhang made three pancakes in one go before saying: "It is a good thing to be frugal in the palace, but the East Palace still needs to take care of it more. I'm going to be a grandfather too."

Empress Ma also nodded and smiled and said: "That's natural, Luo Hua's concubine has been instructed a long time ago, and the cost is the best, hey, before I know it, all the concubines are going to be grandmothers. "

Zhu Yuanzhang was full of ambition and was just about to answer when he saw his son deeply shook his head to indicate not to answer casually. This is also the tacit understanding between the father and son for many years. Zhu Biao would give him profound advice since he was a child, and it turned out that they were all correct. .

  Zhu Yuanzhang forcibly changed his mouth and said: "Biaoer, did you signal the new regulations sent by the Guozijian? Is it too loose? We want them to help us manage local government affairs, not to waste food and cultivate a group of nerds who are nothing more than people."

Zhu Biao then said: "The Guozijian has been established for four years. Not to mention the talents of Zaifu, not even a qualified magistrate of a state has been trained. It is far inferior to the talents recommended by the local government. I think this is a waste of the court. Resources, it's better to try it once, and it won't be bad.”

   Zhu Yuanzhang said earnestly: "Cleaning up the administration of officials will inevitably lead to a shortage of officials. The number of candidates for the imperial examination is far from being able to fill this hole. The Imperial College is the most important thing. Even if there are no outstanding talents, the victory lies in stability."

Zhu Biao thought for a while and said: "There are still more than a thousand students in the Imperial College, and they are all used to the old rules, and they are about to retire soon, so they will not change. As for the later students, they will try the new rules. , I will definitely not disappoint my father."

Zhu Yuanzhang was noncommittal, while Empress Ma asked: "Thousands of students are not a small number. I heard that the imperial court subsidizes their food and drink expenses, but the food they want to subsidize is only enough for personal life. Then their wives What will your children live on?"

Zhu Biao thought for a while and said: "The family who can study and enter the Imperial College should be quite rich. After all, most families can't afford a scholar, but there should be a small number of people from poor families. Don't worry about scarcity but inequality, everyone wants free mutual aid.”

Empress Ma thought for a while and said: "I still have a little private house, Biao'er, you send someone to buy the knitted women's reds from the wives and daughters of the Imperial College students on a monthly basis, and give them more money than the market, so that they can have more income. People who are rich naturally look down on this small amount of money, so we can take care of those who really need it."

  Zhu Biao responded immediately: "The queen mother is kind, and the minister will send someone to do it."

Zhu Yuanzhang also showed a soft smile on his face. His wife is so kind, and she is still the same as Zhu Chongba when she married him, a poor and vain licking blood to survive. After so many years, he is no longer the original Zhu Chongba. But she is still the same as before, she hasn't changed at all.

In Zhu Yuanzhang's mind, the face he saw when he timidly lifted the bride's red hijab back then appeared. After he got married, he changed from a well-known squad leader to a handsome son-in-law. It can be said that he reached the sky in one step. I really want to work hard for Guo Zixing, in order to repay the kindness of knowing him.

He took the lead in the war and was invincible, but Guo Zixing began to be afraid and suppress him in order to pave the way for his son. As the military exploits accumulated more and more, and his reputation was rising day by day, Guo Zixing became more suspicious. When there was a war, he relied on him to lead the army to fight and settle down. From then on, he started to make trouble for him, and his heart began to waver from then on.

I originally thought that my wife, as the handsome goddaughter, would definitely persuade him, but she didn't. She said, "Marry a chicken, follow a chicken, marry a dog, follow a dog. Chongba, I will support you in whatever you want. Husband and wife are of the same mind. I will do whatever you think of me." Think, at worst, die together!

That period was the most difficult time for him. His wife was a child at her mother's house, only hoping to let her husband escape from this oppressed place. He was oppressed in the army, and the soldiers around him were disrupted countless times. Let him cultivate a direct descendant.

Finally got the chance, Zhu Yuanzhang gave up everything in Guo Zixing's camp, leaving his wife with only twenty-four Huaixi brothers to set up his own family. At that time, his future was bleak and he didn't know how far he could go. Success is success!

Later, when he became a commander in chief, when he was besieging Jiqing, he heard that his wife had given birth to a son, and he returned excitedly. The most honorable person in the world will never let them suffer any more humiliation.

   All the way back from the army, I can't remember what I did on the way. I just remember that when I opened the door that day, I saw my wife holding her little son in her arms and looking at him eagerly...

  When Zhu Yuanzhang thought of this Adam's apple rolled, his eye circles suddenly turned red, and his nose felt sore for some reason. The scene more than ten years ago was more unforgettable than the moment when he sat on the dragon chair and accepted the worship of hundreds of officials.

He hurriedly took a sip of the already cold duck blood soup, and the mother and son who were still discussing looked at him in surprise, Zhu Yuanzhang stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyes and said: "Okay, eat and drink enough, go to bed early, busy today We're all sleepy."

  Zhu Biao scratched his head and said, "This is strange. It's the first time I've heard Father say that I'm tired, so I went down there. By the way, I will go to the gate of the city tomorrow morning to accept surrender. What orders does Father have?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said directly: "Is there anything I can tell you? Mingsheng's ability is only that great. When he arrives in the capital, he can still make waves. Get closer to Fu Youde. This guy will improve as he fights. Grab food in your mouth."

  Empress Ma instructed: "General Fu is indeed a difficult general, you should respect Biaoer, don't rely on your status to be contemptuous, as the saying goes, a thousand gold is easy to get, but a general is hard to find, you know?"
