Daming heir

Chapter 28
Zhu Yuanzhang himself had just mentioned Zhu Yunxi, and he couldn't help being happy when he heard that the messenger was already waiting outside the hall.

My good grandson really knows our intentions!

Zhu Yuanzhang slapped his thigh: "Let our good grandson come in quickly, it's raining outside, don't let our good grandson catch the cold!"

The sound of steady footsteps came from outside the hall.

In the hall, Zhu Biao, who had been waiting in front of the old man, rolled his eyes involuntarily.

The old man doesn't know how to restrain his mind at all now?

a while.

Zhu Yunxi already walked into the Zhongji Hall with his head held high and his chest held high.

Facing the light coming in from outside, Zhu Yuanzhang lost his focus for a moment.

It's really like when we were young.

At that time, we were also so majestic, handsome and suave!

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flickered, seeing the wetness on Zhu Yunxi's head and shoulders, he raised his leg and kicked the prince Zhu Biao beside him: "Why are you a father!"

Zhu Biao looked aggrieved, looking at Zhu Yunxi who was so wet for some reason, not to mention how aggrieved he was.

This brat talked to Cao Zhen and his gang, and he even told Chang's family to return to the palace earlier. Not only did he forget to go back to the palace, but he also ran away somewhere, making him look like this.

Here Zhu Yuanzhang scolded his son.

In front of him, Zhu Yunxi had already walked over vigorously.

When he got close, he stopped, clasped his fists and crossed his hands, and said, "Grandson pays respects to grandpa and father."

Zhu Yuanzhang walked forward with a hearty laugh, patted Zhu Yunxi on the shoulder, stared and blamed, "I heard that you have started practicing martial arts these days? Then you can't treat yourself as an iron wall. Where are you? It's such a mess."

Only then did Zhu Yunxi lower his head to look at himself.

Only then did I realize that I was wet and cold all over.

He smiled and explained: "The grandson went to find a great talent for our family!"

Zhu Biao's eyes flashed by, quite curious.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang had already waved his big hand, and ordered to the people in the hall: "Go, get our clean clothes, and come and change them for Yunxi!"

Zhu Biao quickly suppressed the curiosity in his heart, and spoke out to dissuade him: "Father, you can't do it, this act is presumptuous..."

Zhu Yuanzhang glared: "You don't love your son, but we love our grandson."

While talking, the palace servants in the Zhongji Palace had already brought a set of Zhu Yuanzhang's clothes.

The palace people could tell the difference, they only took the ordinary clothes that the emperor usually wears, they were washed white, and there were a lot of patches on them.

Zhu Yuanzhang held up his clothes and looked at him for a few times, and then looked at Zhu Yunxi, who was handsome and handsome like himself when he was young.

No matter what, I feel that these clothes are full of men, and they are not suitable for my good grandson at all.

Zhu Yunxi already had a smile on his face: "Grandson, thank you grandpa for your love..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang said, "I'll change it here, if you don't obey me, ask for a beating!"

Zhu Yunxi had no choice but to go to the side and change into Zhu Yuanzhang's clothes full of bugs.

When he came to the old man and the old man again.

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up again: "It's really grown up, grandpa's clothes can be worn down."

Zhu Yunxi showed shyness: "The grandson is the grandson of the grandfather, and he is connected by blood. This body is naturally the same as the grandfather and father."

That's a beautiful statement.

Zhu Yuanzhang only felt that he was facing countless troublesome state affairs memorials every day. If he could always have this good grandson by his side, he would no longer feel such headaches.

The crown prince Zhu Biao hummed on the side: "Let's say, what did you do when you were outside the palace earlier?"

He still remembered that just now this kid kept saying that he was looking for a great talent for Daming.

Zhu Yuanzhang also showed curiosity: "Yunxi, what kind of talent did you find for us today?"

Zhu Yunxie nodded his head and said kindly: "Reporting to grandfather and father, my grandson was in Xicheng today, and I found Fang Xizhi, Fang Xiaoru, Fang Xizhi, the chief envoy of Zhejiang Province, Taizhou Prefecture, Ninghai County!"

I saw his face full of joy, as if he was a child who had done a big thing and was begging for benefits from his elders.

Zhu Yuanzhang showed suspicion on his face.

Zhu Biao on the side nodded clearly, and explained with a smile: "Father, this Fang Xiaoru is what you told me in the 15th year of Hongwu. Old people can't walk."

Hearing the crown prince's explanation, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly realized, patted Zhu Yunxie on the shoulder, and said happily: "So you, boy, have found Fang Xizhi!"

He just remembered that he had indeed praised Fang Xiaoru as the prince said back then.

It's just that at that time, Fang Xiaoru was only 25 or six years old, and he didn't grant him the authority.On the contrary, I think it is a talent that can be made, but it can be reserved for the prince to use as a talent for managing the world in the future.

Seeing that Zhu Yunxi had actually found him now, Zhu Yuanzhang asked curiously, "How did you know this person, and how did you find him?"

Zhu Yunxi said truthfully: "My grandson has seen Mr. Xizhi's articles in the past, and often reads them to taste. Recently, I heard that my husband came to Beijing to visit friends, so I asked Sun Cheng to pay attention to them. It just so happened that I found him today. "

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "You have a good eye, and you can see that Fang Xiaoru is a talent. But he is still young, and he is only in his 30s this year?"

While speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the prince beside him.

Zhu Biao pondered for a while, then replied softly: "This year is thirty and four."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, looked at Zhu Yunxi again, and asked, "Are you going to recommend him to be an official?"

In Zhu Yuanzhang's heart, he was unwilling to promote Fang Xiaoru at this time.

Suddenly placing him in a high position without tempering his temperament will only backfire.

This is why, in the original history, Fang Xiaoru was recommended to the court by others in the 25th year of Hongwu, but Zhu Yuanzhang only let him go to Hanzhong to teach.

This is to polish the opponent for a long time, and when the crown prince takes the position, he has also polished his temper before he can be worthy of the big responsibility.

only……

If the good grandson takes a fancy to the other party, he might be able to find one or two seats in the court.

Zhu Yuanzhang stared at Zhu Yunxi in front of him, only waiting for this good grandson to ask Fang Xiaoru for an official.

Zhu Biao on the side has already frowned.

There is nothing wrong with the clan recommending talents for the court, but it will inevitably be criticized, whether it is promoting its own people, or forming a party for personal gain.

Zhu Yunxi said: "A few days ago, my grandson made a mistake in his words in the East Palace Academy. Now, although there are other masters teaching in the East Palace Academy, my grandson always feels that something is missing. Today, when my grandson saw Mr. Xizhi in person, he came to his senses. , there is a lack of virtuous people like Mr. Wang who are rich in learning and have the ability to manage the country in the school."

"It is precisely because of this that my grandson came to see my grandfather today, hoping to allow Mr. Xizhi to enter the palace, reopen the main hall, teach my Ming clan's heirs a lesson, clarify the ambitions of my Daming clan, and cultivate one's character."

It turned out that he was not seeking an official position for Fang Xiaoru, nor was he trying to form a party for personal gain.

At the same time, both Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhu Yuanzhang was even more satisfied with Zhu Yunxi standing in front of him.

This good grandson is really enlightened!
Fang Xiaoru is a man of talent and learning.

Now there are only four out of thirty, so it is not suitable to be placed in any position in the court, but it happens to be the tutor of the Dahontang, which is the most suitable.

On the one hand, it is possible to keep talents in the court, and on the other hand, it is impossible to participate in the affairs of the court and at the same time, it is beneficial to observe and study the affairs of the court.

The most important thing is that now calling him into the court to teach in the Dabentang can be regarded as accumulating qualifications for Fang Xiaoru.In the future, it will be easier for the prince to uphold the government, and it will be easier to promote and reuse this person.

Further back...

In the court, there were Zhongzheng and wise ministers who had gone through three dynasties, who could assist the great Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately said without hesitation: "Okay! Let's listen to you. Tomorrow, let Fang Xiaoru enter the palace and reopen the main hall, and order the princes and grandchildren of the clan to study in the main hall."
