Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 110 Human Heart
It seems that Zhu Xiongying doesn't need to worry so much about things in Tianjin. Of course, this refers to some government affairs.Li Qi is not necessarily so talented, but Li Shanchang is trustworthy.

Even if Li Shanchang has resentment in his heart, even if he must be uncomfortable in his heart.But for the sake of children and grandchildren, even when you are old, you need to work hard.Facing a seemingly mean emperor, Li Shanchang accepted his fate.He has been prosperous and also has been miserable. At this stage, he is not living for himself, but to win some opportunities for his children and grandchildren.

Zhu Xiongying sorted out the reports, and his uncles seemed to be more reliable, and all of them were good at gold plating.Although the intention to grab credit is very obvious, but he didn't lose the chain, which made Zhu Xiongying quite satisfied.

Looking at Li Shanchang, Zhu Xiongying said, "Mr. Li, we still need to pay more attention to recruiting craftsmen. It is said that the soot blowing method is useful. To recruit craftsmen in large quantities, we now need a large number of miners. Not only to mine, but also to smelt mines." !"

Li Shanchang took the order, but his heart was beating drums now.

Why did the Ming Dynasty cross the sea to fight Korea and Dongying? There was a fierce quarrel in the court.If it weren't for Lao Zhu's high prestige and strong suppression, the ministers must have fallen into trouble long ago.After all, in their view, fighting across the sea is not a cost-effective thing. Not to mention the waste of people and money, it is also an unknown lesson.

Everyone knows that the power officials in Korea usurped the throne, or Dongying didn't obey the imperial order, etc. They are all excuses.Many people are worried that Lao Zhu will become Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty and Ming Dynasty will become the Yuan Dynasty.After all, Emperor Sui Yang's conquest of Goryeo failed miserably, and the Yuan Dynasty's attempt to fight Dongying ended up capsizing.

But now Li Shanchang understood that Daming's mission this time was to stare at the gold and silver mines in those wild places.And now it seems that the mineral deposits over there are amazing, so Daming needs to recruit a lot of miners to open mines in Japan.

Fighting against such an emperor, prince, and grandson, Li Shanchang was disheartened, mainly because the grandparents were too powerful.This is the true destiny, not only Yijie in white became the founding emperor, but also the first in history to unify China from south to north, and because of the destiny, there are treasures in the barren land!

Zhu Xiongying continued, "Grandpa Li once assisted the emperor's grandfather in conquering dissidents, and there has never been a problem with the army's logistics and supplies. Uncle will come over to assist after a while. Gong Li remembers to do these things well with uncle. Tianjin must fight Get it right."

Li Shanchang cupped his hands, with a solemn expression, "Criminals receive the decree!"

Mei Yin will come to Tianjin to sit in town. As Lao Zhu's favorite son-in-law, Mei Yin can be regarded as quite talented.This also shows some of Lao Zhu's disposition, he is quite cronyistic a lot of the time.Fortunately, these relatives of Lao Zhu are also reliable.

Nephew Zhu Wenzheng, nephew Li Wenzhong, and son-in-law Mei Yin are all talented and capable people, so naturally they should be reused.

In such an era cronyism is also very important, especially since Daming opened not long ago, Lao Zhu still needs to constantly take back his rights.And this time, many of the nobles, civil and military personnel dispatched to the north are also members of Zhu Xiongying's team in the future, and his six mini-parts are basically about to take shape now.

In addition to civil servants, there is no shortage of military commanders here. Lao Zhu delegates power very simply, and his intention to train Zhu Xiongying is also very obvious.

After beating Li Shanchang, Zhu Xiongying didn't stay long. He still needs to return to Beiping to sit in town again, and there are many things there.

In particular, a large number of civil and military officials and nobles will come to Peiping immediately, including many wealthy businessmen and immigrants. This naturally also means that Zhu Xiongying will be tied up by many local government affairs. He needs to straighten out these things , Moving the capital has never been a simple matter.

Back in Peiping, Zhu Xiongying immediately received a report from Huang Zicheng.The director of the Siyi Academy of the Imperial College is also a censor, and this is not just a king of talking, their main role is to be a supervisor.

The stern-faced Zhu Xiongying ruthlessly put the memorial on the ground, and sternly shouted, "Let Song Zhong take someone to raid the house! Those who admired the former court, the males were sent as slaves, and the females did not enter the priest's workshop! Those few Noble gentry and aristocratic families, I will help them all!"

Gritting her teeth fiercely, Zhu Xiongying said, "Let them go to the grasslands to find their master! He will wait for all his family members to become lowly citizens, and his descendants will not be allowed to become scholars!"

Zhu Xiongying was really angry, perhaps because during the Yuan Dynasty, the rulers gave many privileges to the gentry and landlords, and those people naturally missed the rule of the Yuan Dynasty.What's more, the land of Yanyun has been ruled by the Han family for hundreds of years, and many people here have long been accustomed to the nomadic lifestyle.

So even though Lao Zhu and Zhu Xiongying are constantly asking to change customs, some people seem to be citizens of the Ming Dynasty on the surface, but they still miss the rule of the Yuan Dynasty in their hearts, and they are looking forward to their master coming from the grassland again. , to rule the world.

Thinking of something, Zhu Xiongying said, "People go to Qufu. I remember that Kong Duanyou is not bad. He has always been Yan Shenggong of my Han family. But Kong Fan, the nephew of Kong Duanyou, is Yan Shenggong of the false Qi. Fan is the Jurchen Yanshenggong! Kong Yuanyong, Kong Zhiquan and his son are both Mongolian Yanshenggongs!"

Zhu Xiongying snorted coldly, and said rather sarcastically, "I don't know if the sage Kong will be offended by these unworthy descendants. It's nothing more than the three Yan Shenggongs. Two of them are working for foreign races! Let Kong Na write Good news, I would like to see the inheritance of the descendants of the sage Confucius, and the inheritance of Duke Yansheng!"

Zhu Xiongying naturally understands that in this day and age, it is impossible to completely overthrow Confucianism.

In fact, after thousands of years of influence, Confucian culture has long been integrated into the genes of this nation.Even in later generations, many things have the shadow of Confucianism.

It's just that it's obvious that Zhu Xiongying just wants to beat Confucianism and embarrass Yan Shenggong's family.After all, the current 56th generation of Kong Na is a first-class official, the leader of all officials in the class!

Even if he was as powerful as Lao Zhu, there was no way to lift Mencius out of the Confucian Temple, let alone deny the status of Confucianism.Because scholars all over the world call themselves Confucius and Mencius, this is a fact.

Zhu Xiongying was indeed very angry. It has been more than 20 years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and many people still miss the rule of the Yuan Dynasty.Even before, they knew that the land of Yanyun was a high-incidence area of ​​nostalgia for foreign rule, but they did not expect that there are still some aristocratic families who dare to commit crimes against the wind.

After all, it's not just Zhu Xiongying who is forcing the customs to change. Lao Zhu ordered to change some customs and habits in the Mongolian period at the beginning of the founding of the country, but now it seems that the effect is mediocre.

Zhu Xiongying can be regarded as taking advantage of the problem now, mainly because the status of the Kong family is too stable.No matter whose family sits on the dragon chair, because of Confucius' status, the descendants of the Kong family will have inexhaustible blessings, and they also have a lot of land in Qufu.

The descendants of Confucius are not necessarily good people, not to mention that whenever a foreign race comes, the descendants of Confucius are always at the forefront, and they like to "change the dynasty" the most. This is not a good thing.

Of course Zhu Xiongying also knew that he couldn't defeat the Kong family all at once, but this time he wanted to make use of the topic, to spread the inheritance of Yan Shenggong's lineage, and to embarrass Kong Shengren's descendants severely, he had to We must try to weaken the status of Confucianism, and we must continue to make use of some things.

Song Zhong led Jin Yiwei to attack aggressively, and several big families in Beiping Mansion were almost uprooted.

Fortunately, Zhu Xiongying was still being polite, he needed to kill chickens to make an example to monkeys, and he didn't come to punish the nine clans, and even the side branches didn't do anything, just arrest those family members, which can be regarded as kindness.

Zhu Xiongying didn't care at all about crying, begging for mercy or cursing. Song Zhong and his Jin Yiwei were naturally even more unmoved. They had long been used to such things, and they naturally knew how to do them well. The task assigned by the emperor's grandson.

Zhu Xiongying's "little uncle" Liu Wei came to Beiping, and he came first after breaking away from the main force, which made Zhu Xiongying slightly relieved.

Speaking of which, Liu Bowen could be regarded as a representative of the Zhedong civil official group at the beginning, and now Liu Yu can naturally be regarded as one of the representatives of the Zhedong group, although his more outstanding identity is now Liu Bowen's grandson, Cheng Chengyi Bo, and Prince Consort Captain.

"Little uncle, do you think that these aristocratic families have forgotten that they are Han people?" Zhu Xiongying handed a memorial to Liu Zhen, and said sarcastically, "These people are loyal to the emperor, and they are really loyal enough!"

Liu Qian could hear Zhu Xiongying's sarcasm, and said immediately, "Your Highness, if you follow some knowledge of Confucianism, they did a good job."

That's right, the rulers of all dynasties liked Confucianism, and a large part of the reason was that Confucianism could help them stabilize their rule, and many of their thoughts were helpful to imperial power.Of course, many Confucian ideas also think that literati and bureaucrats can rule the world together. The status of literati in the Song Dynasty was probably their pursuit.

Zhu Xiongying also continued, "I remember that in the Yuan Dynasty, although Confucianism was reused, it was also severely suppressed. But now it seems that these scholars are really interesting, and they still think about their status as stinking old nine."

Liu Cha was embarrassed and remained silent, because the Yuan Dynasty liked to classify people into grades, and the status of scholars or Confucian scholars was really low, at least in name.

Zhu Xiongying continued, "These aristocratic families are more interesting. Since they like the rule of foreign races and miss their old masters, then this Palace will give them a chance!"

Liu Wei shuddered, because his wife could be regarded as the one who brought up Zhu Xiongying, so naturally she didn't say anything less about Zhu Xiongying's childhood.In addition to mentioning the emperor's grandson Zaohui again and again, he also said that the emperor's grandson has a strategy in his chest.

Although it was more tactful, Liu Qian could also tell that his wife had said that the emperor's grandson was actually very black-bellied and held grudges, very similar to the current Da Mingzi!
