Hongwu Daming: Why hasn't my son rebelled?

Chapter 270 The Great Sage Zhu Qi

Here Liao King Zhu Qi just received Zhu Yuanzhang's imperial decree, when he went to Yingtian Mansion.

The officials in Yingtian Mansion had already received the news that His Royal Highness King Liao was in the north, perfectly handling the economic reform on the grassland.

Those officials were full of praise for His Royal Highness King Liao.

And the officials of the central court had a confused expression on their faces.

Many of the officials they sent to reform the grasslands were experienced officials.

But in front of King Liao, it seems that it is not enough to look at.

And the words of His Royal Highness King Liao are to let the officials go to the people, think what the common people think, and be anxious about the common people's urgency.

This sentence moved many officials greatly.

Although there are no gorgeous words, such simple language made those officials secretly remember it in their hearts.

To put it bluntly, is it true that being an official is for the sake of the whole family?Of course not.

Since ancient times, the Confucian world is for the common world, for the common people of the world.

It's just that everyone has learned this sentence, but few people really keep this sentence in their hearts.

And although His Royal Highness King Liao would not be as full of words as they were, he did really keep this sentence in his heart.

Otherwise, His Royal Highness King Liao would not have solved the economic problems of the common people on the grassland so quickly.

Rural cooperatives have also been established, so that those ordinary people can ask the government office if they have any questions.

Not only that, I heard that His Royal Highness Liao Wang was in the battle where Fu Youde defeated Naha.

It also contributed a lot, and the officials of the central court who talked about this matter a lot also had a confused expression on their faces.

They all asked one after another, what kind of effort did our Highness King Liao exert?

Someone said it.

Why didn't you put in the effort?If it weren't for the prestige of His Royal Highness King Liao, Naha would probably have resisted with soldiers and horses.

But it is because of our Royal Highness Liao Wang, who killed Li Fangyuan with the thousand-mile curse earlier, and let Naha out of fear.

None of the Beiyuan soldiers dared to resist, and they all surrendered one after another.

In fact, there was nothing wrong with what he said.

After all, Naha Chu was also afraid of the reputation of Liao King Zhu Qi, so he didn't dare to resist.

Moreover, in everyone's eyes, the entire Northern Yuan Dynasty was destroyed by Liao King Zhu Qi with his own troops. On the contrary, Lan Yu, who fought the toughest battle, did not seem to be remembered by everyone.

However, Lan Yu's contribution is obvious to all, but in terms of official position, Liao Wang is naturally much bigger than Lan Yu, so who does he want to flatter?
But now not only such a big credit is on the Liao King Zhu Qi, but now His Majesty the Emperor has issued another decree.

Let His Royal Highness King Liao quickly respond to Tianfu's host, the most recent one, which is the imperial examination in Hongwu's 19th year.

The reform of the imperial examination has been announced a few years ago.

The imperial examination to be held in the 19th year of Hongwu is a new type of examination.

What I studied were all textbooks compiled by His Royal Highness Liao Wang, such as mathematics, physics and chemistry, which I had never learned before.

Few of these old antiques who are now officials in the imperial court understand these things.

I don't need to be thankful that I was born decades earlier. If they learn from these textbooks written by His Royal Highness Liao Wang in this era, whether they can be admitted to be an official is still a question mark.

Everyone was shocked when they heard it, good guy, what does this mean?

Are we going to make His Royal Highness Liao the teacher of scholars all over the world?

If the imperial examination was presided over by His Royal Highness the King of Liao, wouldn't all those who passed the imperial examination and entered the officialdom be the disciples of the King of Liao?

At least they have all been favored by His Royal Highness Liao Wang, not to mention the books they read.

Mathematics, chemistry, and physics are all compiled by His Royal Highness Liao Wang,

The reason why Confucius has such a high status is because most of the Four Books and Five Classics that everyone studies are related to Confucius.

Everyone is a student of Confucius, so how low can Confucius' status be?
Now Liao King Zhu Qi is going to become the second Confucius, a contemporary Confucian sage.

Zhu Yuanzhang did have this plan, otherwise he would not have vigorously promoted the reform of the imperial examination.

After all, on the one hand, the talents brought by the imperial examinations could not satisfy him, but the imperial examinations promoted by King Zhu Qi of the Liao Dynasty were a feasible solution.

At least the method that my son came up with, tariffs and so on, are not all made by people who are good at mathematics.

Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang is still very confident about the reformed imperial examinations.

As for the second point, Zhu Yuanzhang also had a selfish intention.

That is, if their old Zhu's family can produce a saint, that would be really amazing.

It may even be a little bit worse than myself as the emperor.

But the third child has become a saint, which is also a great honor for Lao Zhu's family.

So Zhu Yuanzhang saw this opportunity, especially now that the imperial examination is about to take place.

That's why I ordered Zhu Qi to return to Yingtian Mansion to preside over it.

Even if you don't do anything, just sit there and be a mascot, the credit must go to you, the third child.

Zhu Yuanzhang's meaning was already very obvious, but Zhu Qi didn't understand it at first.

The more I thought about it on the road, the more frightened I became, and I couldn't laugh or cry in my heart. You, Zhu Yuanzhang, have a good face, but you ended up killing me.

If my elder brother and I turn against each other, it will be all the fault of this father.

Although Zhu Qixin thought so in his heart, he still didn't dare to disobey the imperial decree, and rushed towards Yingtianfu without stopping.

After the officials in the court heard the news, they didn't know what to think in their hearts.

As for the princelings, needless to say, everyone's wailing turned wild.

I thought to myself that Emperor Zhu had some idea, and wanted to abolish our prince, and let Zhu Qi, the king of Liao, be the new prince.

If this is the case, then it’s hard to say, we have to take the rules of establishing a long and establishing a prince, and talk to Zhu Yuanzhang carefully.

Compared with the nervousness and fear of these officials, Zhu Biao was very serious.

From the beginning to the end, he never doubted his younger brother Zhu Qi's.

What's more, now, Zhu Qi is only here to master the reform of the imperial examination, which was originally proposed by Zhu Qi.

Now that the new science exam is about to come, it is only natural for him to be the chief examiner.

As for the alarmist talk of those under his command, Zhu Biao didn't really care much about it.

If everyone took this seriously, then I am afraid that as the eldest brother, I should have taken a knife to stab Liao Wang Zhu Qi long ago.

But he still loves this third brother very much.

Father Huang also told him about this in private, this youngest will be his right-hand man in the future, but he must not ruin the relationship between their brothers just because of the people under him.

Of course, these words were only said by the father on the sidelines, but Zhu Biao is such a smart person, he naturally understood what the father meant.

And Sapphire can be said to be the most nervous among these officials.

He had won a big victory in the fishing sea before, but all his actions were seen through by the Liao king Zhu Qi.

Even after he captured the imperial concubine, he would have thoughts about the northern concubine in his heart, and this matter was all in the Liao king Zhu Qi's calculations.

He even asked Zhu Neng to accompany him and stop him in case he made a historic mistake.

Sapphire can see this matter clearly.

And the reason why Zhu Qi did this was to win him over, and Lan Yu naturally understood it in his heart, but he was a member of His Royal Highness after all, so naturally he still wanted to think of His Highness in his heart.

At this time, persuading His Highness the Crown Prince is also for the position of His Highness the Crown Prince.

If the Liao King Zhu Qi continues to be so powerful, although the emperor may not abolish the crown prince and establish the Liao King now, even he sighs that the Liao King's ability is really superb.

Even when I was sleeping, I would occasionally think about how wonderful it would be if I took refuge in King Liao.

Wouldn't His Majesty the Emperor have the same idea?

If I make King Liao the crown prince, wouldn't this great Ming Dynasty last forever.

Thinking of this, Lan Yu couldn't help being frightened, for fear that her niece and son-in-law would lose the crown prince because of Liao Wang Zhu Qi.

But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince not only did not have the slightest guard against this, but repeatedly reiterated to the officials under him that his relationship with the third king of Liao was very good.

They will definitely not let them destroy the relationship between themselves and their brothers because of this matter.

Also told them not to talk about this matter again. Although Lan Yu said it a few times, she was severely reprimanded by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

I won't mention it anymore, but I feel sad when I talk about it with my subordinates in private.

He even said that in case His Royal Highness King Liao inherits the Datong in the future, don't say that I, Lan Yu, didn't say this.

Of course, this matter was only known in private, and no one deliberately spread it, and even if it was spread, it was suppressed by Prince Zhu Biao.

In the entire court hall, when His Royal Highness Liao Wang was disturbing, Zhu Qi also rushed back to Yingtian Mansion amidst the commotion.

The first thing is naturally to visit his father Zhu Yuanzhang.

And Zhu Yuanzhang was also very happy when he saw Zhu Qi, the king of Liao, came back. Sure enough, there was nothing he couldn't solve when he was assigned to himself, the third child.

When the other officials were at a loss for what to do about the economic reform on the grassland, they let the youngest one go and settle it in a month or two.

And now that Nahachu has also been defeated, the imperial examination is about to take place, and the Ming Empire is thriving.

And Zhu Qi didn't want to be the chief examiner of some kind of imperial examination.

At this time, I was crying bitterly in front of my father, Zhu Yuanzhang, and what I said was very emotional.

I can't be the chief examiner anyway.

And his eldest brother, Prince Zhu, is called the Prince of the Ming Emperor.

He should be the chief examiner, after all, he is going to be the emperor in the future, how can the officials in the world go out from his side, it must be from our elder brother's side.

If these words were put to the princes of other eras, they would definitely feel that they were deliberately putting a high hat on His Highness the Crown Prince.

But these sons under Zhu Yuanzhang's hands are different. They are all brought up by Prince Zhu Biao, even Zhu Qi is no exception.

Although Zhu Qi didn't have any memories of this, but saying it at this time was also a show of brotherly respect, and Zhu Yuanzhang was actually quite moved in his heart.

He has also thought about this issue. If the prince Zhu Biao is allowed to be the chief examiner, it will indeed be very beneficial to the prince's future career as an emperor.

But after all, the mathematics, chemistry, physics, etc. were written by his youngest Zhu Qi.

What's more, let the prince be the chief examiner, but you can't make a saint.

But it would be different if Zhu Qilai was appointed as the official of the imperial examination reform, relying on so much credit before.

In addition, as the chief examiner, if all the scholars in the world come from Liao King Zhu Qi's disciples, this saint will be determined.

And Zhu Yuanzhang also told Zhu Biao about this matter, so Zhu Biao was so relieved.

After all, it is something to be happy for Old Zhu's family to have a saint.

It's just that Zhu Qi's side is extremely reluctant, and it's not easy for Zhu Yuanzhang to tell Zhu Qi about this matter directly.

Otherwise, it seemed that he was too utilitarian, so he quickly sent away the mourning Zhu Qi, and ordered Zhu Qi to be the examiner of the imperial examination no matter what.

That's nothing to say, those who can work hard have also worked hard, so I can only report to my big brother Zhu Biao.

Zhu Qi walked to Zhu Biaodong's East Palace with his head mourned.

At this time, Zhu Biao was already in his 30s, and he looked capable and sophisticated.

Without the slightest greasy feeling, I have to say that Zhu Biao is perfect both in terms of personality charm and his own image.

After seeing Liao King Zhu Qi coming over, Zhu Biao naturally realized what Liao King Zhu Qi was doing immediately.

He laughed at that time, laughed and then asked someone to invite the Liao king Zhu Qi in, and then asked someone to serve two jugs of wine, and wanted to have a good drink with his third brother.

If Zhu Yuanzhang had a hard time saying something, he, Zhu Biao, naturally had no worries.

Immediately, he told Zhu Qi that Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to do the work of a saint for the old Zhu family.

At this time, Zhu Yuan and Zhu Qi suddenly realized that Zhu Yuanzhang had been thinking about it for a long time.

Zhu Qi also suddenly realized that all of a sudden, the previous burden was gone in his heart.

I'm really worried that after this operation, there will be some disgust with the elder brother's coordinates, but now that I have spoken, it turns out that it is for our old Zhu family to create a saint.

But he just relaxed a little bit in his heart, and suddenly his expression froze, what?Create a saint for Lao Zhu's family, and this saint is myself.

Zhu Qi panicked at once, and hurriedly pulled his elder brother and waved his hands, how can I be the saint, if he wants to be the elder brother, you can be the one.

Having said that, Zhu Biao is also very aware that he has not written any textbooks such as psychology, mathematics and chemistry.

The reform of the imperial examination has nothing to do with me.

No matter how you calculate it, this saint can't be his own head.

So this sage, he, Liao King Zhu Qin, is sure to be, no one will be easy to use.
