Prince of Chaos

Chapter 661: Emperor Wanli's Confidence in Craftsmanship

Xiadu, Beidaihe Palace.

The beach in Beidaihe is always so gentle. The climate here is gentle, the wind is gentle, and even the sea is gentle.

In this gentle embrace, there will always be some unpleasant things.

Like a beach barbecue!

After arriving at the Beidaihe Palace, Emperor Wanli soaked on the beach by the sea, asking his guards and eunuchs to catch seafood and oysters for him.

And he was enjoying grilling skewers and drinking sparkling water, so happy.

Emperor Wanli liked living here very much, and this was the life he most yearned for in the past two years.

Zhu Changluo walked over on the waves, and when he saw Emperor Wanli hiccupping and lying comfortably on the beach chair wearing sunglasses, he smiled knowingly.

"Father."

Zhu Changluo came over and greeted softly.

After hearing Zhu Changluo's voice, Emperor Wanli lowered his head, his small eyes rolled up from behind the sunglasses, and when he saw Zhu Changluo, he said, "Why do you have time to accompany me today?"

Zhu Changluo pleaded guilty: "There are too many court affairs, and it is the fault of my son and minister that I can't perform my filial piety at the father's knee in time."

Emperor Wanli said: "Forget it, I know you are busy with court affairs. However, no matter how busy you are, you have to get together. I will bake you a plate of oysters later."

Zhu Changluo smiled and said, "Thank you, father."

Emperor Wanli also smiled, and said to Zhu Changluo: "It's too late for everything, and the same is true for state affairs. With Wang Xijue and the others helping to watch, you can make up your mind. There is no need to do everything yourself. It will be tiring."

Emperor Wanli looked at Zhu Changluo's slightly tired eyes, and began to teach Zhu Changluo how to govern the country with distress.

Zhu Changluo didn't refute, he just listened quietly, he knew that what Emperor Wanli said was also for his own good.

However, the current situation of Daming and the problems that Daming is about to face are all urgent matters that seize the day and night. Even if Zhu Changluo wants to relax, these things will not take Zhu Changluo's time.

Therefore, Zhu Changluo could only work hard and work overtime.

Who made this an era of totalitarian feudal imperial power?

If so, without the normal operation of the emperor's imperial power, everything will come to a standstill.

Therefore, Zhu Changluo can only encourage the operation of the imperial power, so that the current Ming Dynasty will not be idle like the original Ming Dynasty in historical time and space.

In the original historical time and space, because of the dispute over the country and his health, Emperor Wanli was passive and sabotaged for nearly 30 years, and he did not recruit officials to make up for the lack of officials at the central and local levels.

As a result, only a group of old men in the center are encouraging maintenance, and some people hold multiple positions, and there is only one cabinet minister remaining in the cabinet to encourage maintenance.

It has to be said that it is an unprecedented political miracle that such a central government has not collapsed.

However, behind such a political miracle, there are indeed turbulent waves!
The Little Ice Age ravaged the north, causing constant plagues and droughts in the north, while the situation in the south was slightly better. However, unusual floods also appeared in Anhui, Jiangxi and other places in turn, challenging the fragile nerves of this empire.

In the end, because of the corruption on the nine sides, the imperial court was unable to defend against the Tatar Jurchens outside the Great Wall, and the taxes in the south could not be collected.

For the sake of the stability of the frontier, Chongzhen, the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty, had no choice but to drink poison to quench his thirst, disband the post station, and forcibly collected Liao's salary, which made the northern land, which was already devastated by the poor, even more miserable, and finally the civil chaos continued.

Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong and his like made their debut on the stage, pushed all the way, and went straight to the city of Beijing.

At this time, the last emperor Chongzhen still did not stabilize the frontier, and in the end he could only hang himself from hatred and die for the country, ending the 300-year reign of the Ming Dynasty.

And that's just a midfielder, not a solution.

The following historical trend is even more embarrassing, and I wish I could save the sky from falling!
Therefore, after knowing the history of the next few decades, it is really difficult for Zhu Changluo to quietly be a salted fish.

Although Nurhachi in Liaodong has been boiled by Zhu Changluo for so many years like an eagle, it can be considered successful.

However, Zhu Changluo is not capable of reversing the intensification of the Little Ice Age. Therefore, what Zhu Changluo can do is to do his best, prepare everything as best he can, rebuild the Nine Sides, and integrate the ideas of the Mobei Grassland. They no longer have so many events in the original time and space.

Only in this way can Zhu Changluo free up his energy to clean up the mess inside.

Therefore, Zhu Changluo's difficulties are also known to him.

Facing Emperor Wanli's concern, Zhu Changluo could only smile and didn't speak.

After all, two people have different perceptions of the future.

The future that Emperor Wanli thought was still the Ming Dynasty, where the prosperous age of singing and dancing would lead to prosperity. Although there were some minor problems, such problems existed in all dynasties. As long as there were no major problems, life would still be able to pass.

Therefore, Emperor Wanli had no sense of crisis at all.On the contrary, he still enjoys the present life very much, living the life he likes.

Just when Zhu Changluo's thoughts were drifting away, Emperor Wanli suddenly yelled, "Quick, quick, my pole is moving! Chen Ju, grab it for me!"

Zhu Changluo was shocked by Emperor Wanli's sound, and suddenly came back to his senses. He rushed to Emperor Wanli's fishing rod in three steps at a time, grabbed the fishing rod with one hand, and started to pull it back.

As a result, just as Zhu Changluo was about to pull the rod, he felt a strong force. Zhu Changluo immediately relaxed and began to pull in a roundabout way.

"It's a big fish!"

Zhu Changluo let out a surprise.

When Emperor Wanli heard that it was a big fish, he immediately beamed with joy.

"Big fish is good, big fish is good! I like to catch big fish!"

Emperor Wanli laughed happily, and immediately ordered Chen Ju and others to jump into the sea and catch the fish in the net to prevent the big fish from getting away.

Seeing the excitement on the sea, Emperor Wanli was even more excited, as if he had done it himself.

Zhu Changluo retracted and pulled the fishing line in a roundabout way, and the strength of the big fish was finally consumed a lot, and finally had to be dragged to shallow water by Zhu Changluo.

At this time, when Chen Ju and other guards saw the position of the big fish, they immediately set up a fishing net to catch the big fish.

In this way, this big fish was caught ashore by this group of human beings who don't speak martial arts.

When Chen Ju and others dragged the fish ashore, Zhu Changluo took a look and found that it was a large yellow croaker more than one meter long!
Visually, this fish weighs at least ten pounds!

Seeing such a big yellow croaker, Zhu Changluo also grinned.

This huge wild large yellow croaker is extremely rare.

Before crossing, Zhu Changluo once swiped his mobile phone and saw that a fisherman caught a large yellow croaker weighing seven catties and sold it for a sky-high price of more than 4!

But the one in front of him was obviously bigger and heavier. It was conceivable that such a large wild yellow croaker must be worth more!
Therefore, Zhu Changluo immediately rejoiced and said: "Father, this is a lucky win! This fish is huge and weighs about ten catties by visual inspection. It is extremely rare, and it is a treasure!"

Emperor Wanli's eyes lit up, "Really?"

Zhu Changluo said: "It's absolutely true!"

Emperor Wanli clapped his hands excitedly and said, "Then bake it and make it the main course tonight!"

Zhu Changluo hastily stopped it. It is really violent to roast such a large yellow croaker like this. The most delicious soup should be boiled for such a large yellow croaker.

Zhu Changluo said: "Father, if such a large yellow croaker is roasted, it may not be cooked through, causing the smell of spices to enter. It is better to boil it into soup. I heard that the soup of large yellow croaker is also very delicious, it is definitely a must!" "

When Emperor Wanli heard Zhu Changluo's words, his saliva almost flowed out, and he immediately said: "Then make soup! I want to taste how fresh the big yellow croaker soup is!"

After hearing Emperor Wanli's will, Chen Ju immediately hugged the big yellow croaker happily and went to the cooks in the Beidaihe palace to clean up the big yellow croaker.

Emperor Wanli looked at the back of the big yellow croaker, and sighed: "I never thought that my fishing skills are so good, and I can catch such a big fish in one go."

Zhu Changluo smiled and said, "Father, if you want to catch bigger fish, I will call in a large boat built by the Zhili Navy, and we will go fishing."

Emperor Wanli's eyes lit up immediately, but when he saw the endless blue water in front of him again, Emperor Wanli was a little scared instinctively, so he said: "Forget it. I'm just lying on the beach like this right now Fishing in the wind is the only way to enjoy it, and I don’t like to go to the sea to be exposed to the wind and the sun.”

Zhu Changluo smiled and said, "Father will still enjoy it."

Emperor Wanli grinned, drank the remaining sparkling water in one gulp, and hiccupped, feeling extremely refreshed.

Emperor Wanli said: "Wait for a while, I will bake oysters for you now, Chen Ju and the others caught a lot today."

After all, Emperor Wanli called for people to set up the grill and prepare to grill oysters.

While roasting, Emperor Wanli did not forget to complain, "The oysters are still freshly caught and grilled. I asked Beidaihe to offer the oysters to the Xishan Palace. It’s a little bit worse. I don’t feel like eating it at all. Still, the oysters caught fresh in Beidaihe are delicious when grilled.”

Listening to Emperor Wanli's ramblings, Zhu Changluo also echoed, "Father, this is really insightful. This seafood is delicious. If it has been away from the sea for too long, how can it be called "returning seafood?" So, it is still father. What Huang said is right, if you want to eat authentic seafood, you still have to come to the beach.”

After hearing Zhu Changluo's analysis, Emperor Wanli immediately said: "Yes, yes, that's the truth. Eat fresh ones if you want to eat them. The imperial meals in the Forbidden City look exquisite, but they are not fresh. How can I personally eat those imperial meals?" Is it delicious to make by hand?"

Zhu Changluo laughed again.

Emperor Wanli actually complained about meeting him. As far as Zhu Changluo knew, Emperor Wanli seemed to have some experience with bread, ice cream, and skewers.

As for other meals.Emperor Wanli knew nothing about it.

Unexpectedly, he complained about the cooking skills of the imperial chef just because he had baked it himself a few times.

This is really a bit floating!

Zhu Changluo was helping Emperor Wanli, and the two of them matched up like this. After a while, the garlic aroma of grilled oysters came from the grill.

After smelling this fragrance, Zhu Changluo couldn't help salivating. Obviously, he also began to covet the oysters roasted by Emperor Wanli.

After Emperor Wanli finished roasting the plate of oysters, the two sat in front of a small table, each with a bottle of iced sparkling water, smiled at each other, and then started to move.

After eating these oysters, Zhu Changluo sighed, "It would be more perfect if there was beer."

Emperor Wanli wiped his mouth, looked at Zhu Changluo and asked curiously, "What skin wine?"

Zhu Changluo said: "It's Lijiu!"

Emperor Wanli snorted, it was the first time Emperor Wanli heard of such an unpopular wine.

Emperor Wanli asked, "What's so good about this wine?"

Zhu Changluo said: "Pairing wine with grilled skewers is unparalleled in the world!"

Hearing Zhu Changluo's powerful evaluation, Emperor Wanli became excited immediately.

Emperor Wanli asked, "Where is the wine?"

Zhu Changluo froze for a moment, then said: "It's lost."

Hearing that Zhu Changluo said it was lost, Emperor Wanli felt heartbroken, "Why did it get lost?"

Zhu Changluo said: "It may be because the ancients were not very good at drinking this kind of wine, so it was lost."

After hearing this sentence, Emperor Wanli became curious again.

"The lost wine, how do you know?"

Zhu Changluo knew that he had slipped up.Then, he quickly explained: "This is the father. Didn't the son be arranged by the father to practice calligraphy and study with Chen Ju when he was young? At that time, the son was able to read all kinds of books under the guidance of Chen Ju and the others. It is a family classic. My son has forgotten which book records Lijiu."

"The book said that the meals of the ancient people were mainly roasted and boiled. Therefore, they invented the wine and ate it with the roasted food. Later, because of the development of food culture, roasted and boiled food was the main food. The diet gradually evolved to a diet based on steaming and frying. Therefore, Lijiu was lost."

After hearing what Zhu Changluo said, Emperor Wanli sighed, "Why is such a good wine lost?"

Zhu Changluo said: "It may be that the tastes of the ancients have changed."

Emperor Wanli said: "Is there any way to make this kind of wine again?"

Zhu Changluo thought for a while and said: "It should be. My son chatted with some Thai and Western people about their wine culture. They said that their Taixi had a kind of wine that was similar to our ancient Ming wine. My son thought it should be Lijiu. Another way to develop."

"Although we have lost it, the food culture of the Taixi people is still relatively primitive, so they may have passed down the brewing method of Lijiu."

When Emperor Wanli heard this, he was immediately happy.

"Since the Taixi people have the method of brewing wine, then we can just learn it."

Zhu Changluo said: "This is feasible, and my son will arrange it to let Xishan Huangzhuang try to learn the method of brewing wine from Taixi people. I will try to let my father taste the taste that has been lost for thousands of years as soon as possible!"

Emperor Wanli was overjoyed and said: "Okay, you arrange it as soon as possible, and I want to taste what is so special about this wine!"

Zhu Changluo said with a smile: "My son obeys the order."

Although the matter of beer was mentioned in front of Emperor Wanli, Zhu Changluo would never manufacture this kind of wine in large quantities now.

Because one of the raw materials of beer is wheat!

Wheat, as the traditional grain of the people in the north, is already tight. If it is used to make wine, it must be inappropriate.

Even if they want to brew, they will have to wait for Chen Jinglun and the others to make breakthroughs and increase the basic grain production before they have the energy to think about these things.

Otherwise, it would be absolutely unwise to rush into such a food-consuming project!
However, it is still possible to make some on a small scale.

After all, the upper class has more social information than most of the lower class, so it is reasonable to have some privileges in life.

Otherwise, what are you trying to figure out by sharpening your heads and working so hard for the rest of your life?Could it be that the plan is to be a cow and a horse for a lifetime, and then give birth to a child who will continue to be a cow and a horse for others?

Obviously, this is not a human instinctive pursuit at all!
People's instinctive pursuit is to live a better life than others.

Therefore, what Zhu Changluo can do is try to open a door of convenience for these caring people, so that they can rely on their ingenuity to complete the leap of class, and at the same time, use their stories to continue to inspire Those who are still struggling.

Let them see hope and see the future, so that they can work harder for themselves and live for the future.

Only in this way can Daming maintain a steady stream of motivation, continue to move forward, and continue to maintain an advanced international status.

If Zhu Changluo's actions make the people at the bottom lose hope and the future, then Daming will gradually stagnate and gradually become lifeless.Once an irreversible natural or man-made disaster occurs, Daming will collapse!

Therefore, Zhu Changluo must do everything possible to give hope to the people of the world!
As long as everyone in the world has hope, Daming will be better, and Guozuo will be longer.

Once people in the world lose hope, no matter how hard Da Ming tries to whitewash the peace and prosperity, people will expose the lies one day.

At that time, the anger that has been accumulated for a long time will lift the sky and the earth, and let those people who are drunk and dreamed of dying in the kingdom of heaven fall into hell!Become one after another under the knife!And get no sympathy.

Therefore, hope will always be the most important reform direction!
Reform without hope, everything is bullshit!
Satisfied with wine and food, oh no!After being full of water and food, Zhu Changluo chatted with Emperor Wanli for a while.

After it got dark, Zhu Changluo returned to the palace with Emperor Wanli.

After arranging the follow-up nightlife of Emperor Wanli, Zhu Changluo also returned to his palace.

But at this moment, in front of his palaces, there is already a person who has been standing for nearly two hours.

Seeing Zhu Changluo approaching, Hou Li's men immediately saluted, "The minister's rear army commander Li Rusong from Zuozhu Kingdom has a meeting with the Holy Prince."

Standing for two hours was really uncomfortable for Li Rusong.

Although he was born in the army and his physical fitness is in the past, after all he is almost 60 years old. Standing for such a long time is not a small test for him.

Zhu Changluo sat on Longyu, glanced at Li Rusong, "Get up."

"Yes."

Li Rusong answered honestly, without the slightest bit of unruliness, and was so submissive that people couldn't feel any defensiveness or disgust towards him.

Zhu Changluo then said: "Come in with Gu, I have something to explain to you."

Li Rusong replied: "Follow the order."

Then he took a step back, followed Zhu Changluo's Long Yu, and entered Zhu Changluo's palace.
