Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 596
For many Wu Xun, if they want to maintain their status and hold real power, they need to work hard.There is no doubt that they have a high enough starting point, and they have enough opportunities.

But it doesn't mean that they are carefree, and it doesn't mean that they don't need to feel that they can sit back and relax on the credit book.Since it is martial arts, it naturally means that they need to stand up when there is a war.

Once they lose this sense of existence, they basically can only accept the situation of being idle, or lose their status.

There are many opportunities to make meritorious deeds, even if some civil servants feel that it is not good for the Ming Dynasty to provoke wars everywhere, there is nothing they can do.

There is no shortage of righteousness. For example, the Ryukyu Zhongshan Kingdom has now been seized by the Ming Dynasty.The Fujian Dusi has a task, and they just want to suppress the border with a large army.It doesn't necessarily mean how many people to send, it simply means sending a few boats, it's no longer just messengers, this time Da Ming has to be serious and won't be vague anymore.

This can also be regarded as "the ceremony first and the soldiers later". If the Ming Dynasty hadn't sent a large army directly to the Zhongshan Kingdom, they would have given the Zhongshan Kingdom a chance.It's just that Chadu, King Zhongshan of the Ryukyu Kingdom, didn't seize the opportunity, and they could only accept the severe punishment of Ming Dynasty.

After that, it can be regarded as the last warning. This time, Da Ming will not really start a war of destroying the country.It's just that for vassal states like Ryukyu, they will also make use of the topic. They need to give these vassal states a clearer warning, so that they will be more aware of their status and accept the constraints of Ming Dynasty.

These are all things that Zhu Yunying should do, there is no doubt about this.

Zhu Yunying was in a good mood. After all, the Ryukyu Kingdom was only a small country, so this trouble could be solved relatively easily.

Even in Zhu Yunying's eyes, Ryukyu was not a threat at all.This is the difference between elephants and ants. The Ming Dynasty had too many ways to end these Ryukyus, and many people even thought it was not worth mentioning.

After solving the political affairs, Zhu Yunying was in a good mood and walked towards the Qianqing Palace. He was going to teach little Zhu a lesson.

"Father, we asked Wen Kun to come here too." Little Zhu was very happy, and said braggingly, "Wen Kun is the funniest now, before he was not fat at all, and he couldn't move. Now it's the funniest, our favorite Holding Wen Kun."

Zhu Wenkun is indeed very cute now. The baby in August is very lively, and it is also because of the unique baby fat that it is very cute.

Zhu Yunying hugged Zhu Wenkun with a smile and asked, "Did your great-grandfather hug Wenkun?"

"Great-grandfather hugged me and teased me for a while." Little Zhu didn't hide anything, and immediately said, "Great-grandfather was a little unhappy, saying that we should take care of Wen Kun, but we shouldn't bring Wen Kun here at this time. We know , the great-grandfather felt that no one could learn what my father taught us, neither Wen Kun nor Wen Qian."

This is the truth, although little Zhu also has some "big lessons", and occasionally goes to the Dabentang to study with the clan's children and honored queens.But everyone also knows that Xiao Zhu has always had "small class teaching" here, which basically means gathering the best scholars from all over the world to teach Xiao Zhu.

"Then you remember, don't teach Wenkun some things." Zhu Yunying teased Zhu Wenkun with a smile, and said, "Although he is your younger brother, it's just that he has an unusual status. You see how good we are with your second uncle, but better We won't let your second uncle read or learn anything."

It seems that after hearing Zhu Yunying's eccentricity, Zhu Wenkun was a little unhappy.This chubby little baby was just looking at Zhu Yunying vigilantly, with two small hands still supporting Zhu Yunying's shoulders, as if trying to push Zhu Yunying away.

But the next moment, the little baby recognized Zhu Yunying's identity, and yelled in a happy milky voice, and rubbed against Zhu Yunying's face with her chubby little face, and gnawed on Zhu Yunying's face with her small mouth open .

Zhu Yunying was very happy and proud, "Did we love you for nothing, or are we close?"

Although Zhu Wenkun gnawed her face full of saliva, but Zhu Yunying didn't dislike her at all, and happily walked towards Qianqing Palace with her son scurrying in her arms.

Xu Miaoqing was very well-behaved at this time, carefully copying the "Book of Filial Piety" under the supervision of Lao Zhu.

Even though Zhu Wenkun was brought here by Xiao Zhu, although Lao Zhu also complained about Xiao Zhu, he definitely spoke softly.The last person to be punished must be Xu Miaoqing, there is no need to have any doubts about this.

Although Xu Miaoqing is the queen now, so many old Zhu can be regarded as giving Xu Miaoqing some respect for the 'only' woman who is in charge of the old Zhu's family.It's just that at some times, Lao Zhu is not polite. For example, when he has always tabooed the harem to interfere in politics, and the state policy of the eldest son, Lao Zhu is even more sensitive.

Glancing at Zhu Yunying, Lao Zhu spoke first, "Although others can copy the "Book of Filial Piety", we just think it's better for the empress to copy the ones that were offered to your imperial grandmother and your mother. filial piety."

Zhu Yunying, who was holding Zhu Wenkun, smiled and said, "That's the reason. The queen should carry Wen Kun back first, copy the "Book of Filial Piety" twice, and then go to Fengxian Hall to describe the spiritual position. Copy "Nv Commandments" too, Three days later, I will give it to Grandpa Huang Yulan."

The Classic of Filial Piety has more than 2000 words; the Commandments for Women also have more than [-] words.Not too much, not too little, enough for Xu Miaoqing to be a little busy.

Old Zhu glanced at Zhu Yunying with disdain, and said, "After all, it's my daughter-in-law who hurts me. Since the emperor has said so, let's do it according to the emperor's wishes."

Xu Miaoqing, who had encountered an unreasonable disaster, hurriedly received an order to thank Xiaozhu. Although she was cheated by Xiaozhu, Xu Miaoqing would not complain about Xiaozhu.As for Zhu Yunying's rescue, it made her feel happy and sweet.

Zhu Yunying smiled and handed the fussy Zhu Wenkun to Lao Zhu, and said, "This little thing made our faces drool, and we have to wipe it off. This little thing Yin'er is holding Wenkun, and we feel uneasy when we look at it. The hug is a bit too tight, and he doesn't allow Gong'e and Nanny to hug her."

Little Zhu was not happy anymore, and said emphatically, "We can hug my brother, and he is the most obedient when we hug him."

Who is Lao Zhu, of course he knows Zhu Yunying's little thoughts.But I didn't bother to say anything, so I hugged Zhu Wenkun and simply teased him. After all, he was Zhu Yunying's second son, and Lao Zhu would still ask him occasionally.

But after Xu Miaoqing helped Zhu Yunying wash his face, Lao Zhu immediately handed Zhu Wenkun to Xu Miaoqing.The meaning of this is also very obvious. Basically, it is driving people away. There is no need to conceal the intention, it is so obvious.

Naturally, Xu Miaoqing didn't dare to complain at all, and hurriedly stood up and left with Zhu Wenkun in her arms.Although she also likes the younger son, Xu Miaoqing knew very well that her eldest son had a different identity at first.If Xiao Zhu hadn't brought Zhu Wenkun here without telling her, Xu Miaoqing would not have dared to bring Xiao Zhu here today, it would be a big taboo.

After Xu Miaoqing left, Old Zhu asked with a stern face, "Prince, do you know why your mother copied books?"

Little Zhu tilted his head, a little dejected, "It's not us. We just saw Wen Kun having fun, so we wanted to hug him to show our great-grandfather. Great-grandfather hasn't seen Wen Kun for a long time, so we forgot about it for a while."

Lao Zhu said more seriously, "You are the crown prince and the foundation of the Ming Dynasty. We told you a long time ago that you and Wen Kun are divided into senior and younger, and you must respect the etiquette of the emperor and ministers in the court. The position of the son of heaven is the position of the ancestor! Look Your father, even if he spoils your second uncle like that, but your father has a sense of propriety, he only spoils when he should, otherwise he will be harmed."

Looking at little Zhu with his head down, Old Zhu stopped talking, and Zhu Yunying was also busy with his own affairs at this time, and didn't say a word.

Shuangquan and Wang Chengen were more cautious at this time, if something went wrong at this time, it would be light to reprimand them.

Seeing that the atmosphere was about the same, Zhu Yunying said, "It's good for Yin'er to remember these things, and don't commit them again in the future. You are the prince of Ming Dynasty after all, so you should be cautious in your words and deeds. Your words and actions, There are many people involved. Think twice before doing anything, and don't be rash when your head gets hot."

Although he usually dotes on little Zhu, but at this time, Lao Zhu did not protect little Zhu.

Zhu Yunying looked about the same, and said to little Zhu, "Okay, just sit down, and I'm going to tell you about ancient times."

Lao Zhu also laughed, and the serious look just now disappeared, and he became a kind old man, "It's good to talk about ancient times, and we like to listen to them. Yin'er, you are not as good as your father in this regard, we and your grandpa are not as good as your father." .Your father and you draw inferences from one instance, read the history books to know the past and the present, and what you say is also reasonable.”

Little Zhu nodded again and again, and said, "We also like the ancient stories that my father talked about. We don't like to listen to what those attendants and professors say. Those people are sour scholars. Let's see for ourselves Think about it, many scholars today are not scholars, and they don’t know what the earliest Confucianism was like if they counted classics and forgotten their ancestors!”

The former Confucian students were really not powerless, and those scholars were also very bloody.Not to mention the sage Confucius, many scholars in the Western Han Dynasty also drew their swords when they disagreed, and they were more passionate than many warriors.

It's just that the blood of scholars is becoming less and less, especially after the Song Dynasty, there is almost no blood.Those elegant scholars also gradually lost their blood, and began to be powerless.

Old Zhu was even happier, and said, "This is the descendant of our Zhu family, this is the prince of our Zhu family! Like your third uncle, he looks like a scholar, and we don't think he can be an emperor. If the emperor is too kind , that would be a bad thing. Your father said a few years ago that when an emperor has a sword in his left hand and a book in his right hand, this is what an emperor should look like."

Little Zhu nodded solemnly, and said, "Then we are just like our father, we can only read the Four Books and Five Classics."

Lao Zhu and Zhu Yunying were anxious, and immediately said loudly, "How dare you!"

Little Zhu was not happy, and asked back, "Great-grandfather didn't understand the Four Books and Five Classics, and our father didn't even understand it. You all only read the Four Books and Five Classics, why do you want me to be proficient? That's not good, we want to be emperors in the future. The emperor is not a test for talent!"

Lao Zhu got anxious and said, "Your father is different. Your father is early-witted. If you can infer other things from one instance, you will fail. Only by studying can you be sensible. We look down on some scholars, but you have to rely on scholars to govern the world. You don't know the Four Books Five classics, how do you know the minds of scholars, and how do you control those people?!"

Zhu Yunying also hurriedly said, "Your great-grandfather, he came from a humble background, but these years he just read books when he was free. Tell yourself, can we add up to be as capable as your great-grandfather? Your great-grandfather also read books, let alone You and I!"

It's impossible to be lazy, Xiao Zhu should study obediently, this is what he should do.

As the crown prince, little Zhu really needs to learn a lot.It is true that his position is stable, and the current national power of the Ming Dynasty is getting stronger and stronger.But for Xiao Xiaozhu, his great-grandfather and his father were all aspiring emperors.

So little Zhu can only accept this. While enjoying the supreme glory brought by his status, this little guy also needs to learn a lot.But there is nothing to say about this. Many children start to enter elementary schools early, and ten years of hard work may not necessarily mean that they can have some fame and fame.

Some farm children, at Xiao Zhu's age, already count as half-workers, and they have to be busy taking care of the fields.Or a little more busy, such as going to a big family to herd a cow, which is also a common thing.

Little Zhu only needs to study, and doesn't need to think about fame and fame, let alone worry about not having enough food and clothing.The little guy who is well-clothed and well-fed often plays and patrols in Yingtian Mansion. He never needs to worry about being bullied, only he bullies others.

Looking at Lao Zhu, Zhu Yunying said, "Grandpa Huang, where is our big ball? We have to teach Yin'er to hold this one out today."

Old Zhu glanced at Zhu Yunying, and said angrily, "The sky is round and the earth is round, who doesn't know this truth? You like to mess around and do messy things all day long. If we didn't protect you, outsiders would definitely say that you are deviant. "

Zhu Yunying was not happy, and said, "A place with a round sky, it is supposed to be seen at a glance, so it should not be seen directly. But Grandpa, think about it carefully, if you look at the distance, don't you?"

"That's your business, you talk about yours, we want ours." Lao Zhu also gave up arguing with Zhu Yunying a long time ago, and Lao Zhu is not interested in these geographical knowledge, as long as it is not a map for marching and fighting, "Shuangquan , go and take out that big ball. Wang Chengen, go and take out all those maps and hang them up."

To teach little Zhu, even if it is a history class, Zhu Yunying needs to explain constantly, combining some actual situations.

Zhu Yunying looked at little Zhu, and said seriously, "Now, let's talk to you, talk about 'since ancient times'!"

In the Records of the Historian, there is a record about Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty who "used ghosts and gods since ancient times".There is also a saying in the Han Dynasty that "Since ancient times, there has never been one who used chaos to help chaos and defeated the world like Qin".

And the "since ancient times" that Zhu Yunying wants to say, it is naturally an inherent territory!
