Hongwu Survival Guide

Chapter 14 Hong Wu
Prince Wu's Mansion, White Tiger Palace.

When Zhu Yuan arrived, Zhu Yuanzhang was indeed angry.

The planned strategy for transporting grain by sea suddenly changed suddenly because a certain cargo took the wrong medicine.

At present, the army is fighting south and north, Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, Feng Sheng, Fu Youde, Tang He, Liao Yongzhong, Deng Yu, Li Wenzhong, Hu Tingrui, Yang Jing, etc. are all on the field, and a few others are also a radish and a pit.

Among the generals that Zhu Yuanzhang could move at will in his pocket was Kang Maocai, who had been staying at the center due to his poor health in recent years, and the other was Hua Gao, who did not want to travel around anymore after he put down Zhang Shicheng.

Huagao completely dropped the pick, and Kang Maocai couldn't move if he wanted to take over the other party's responsibilities.

The problem is, if you want to start the shipping, in order to keep Zhang Shicheng and Fang Guozhen down and those former subordinates who have just surrendered and caused chaos at every turn, you still need a general, preferably one who is familiar with the navy.Otherwise, as the subordinates in the hall said the day before yesterday, if one is not good, those people will either go to sea to stand on their own after they get the grain ship, or they may directly vote for the Northern Dynasty.

Therefore, the shipping strategy can only be postponed.

The more Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it, the more itchy his teeth became. If it wasn't for Hua Gao's pale face and dying appearance just now, he would have given dozens of boards to the other party himself.

Ram goods!

Why not just die clean!

When Zhu Yuan appeared and saw the red sandalwood box, Zhu Yuanzhang still couldn't adjust to what he should have been happy about seeing the red sandalwood box, but he just forced himself not to vent his anger.

Turning away from the left and right again, rubbing the box that Zhu Yuan sent, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the young man in the palace: "Since that's the case, what else do you have to explain?"

Zhu Yuan cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness should have discovered that the characters I have learned are in simplified Chinese. In the box...I have tried my best to use traditional Chinese writing, but it is inevitable that I have missed some omissions. Thinking about it, it will not affect Your Highness's reading in the future."

Zhu Yuanzhang hummed and said it was all right.

In fact, simplified characters have appeared a long time ago, such as cursive script, which is actually a simplified form.Just like mainlanders who later read traditional Chinese will not have any trouble, people who are used to traditional Chinese will not have any problems reading simplified Chinese.

Zhu Yuan thought for a while, and then said: "Also, Your Highness, the content of "Book of Heaven" is not limited to outsiders, even His Highness's close relatives, unless His Highness allows it, they should not read it in the future. More importantly, it must not be read before His Highness. "

This is the idea that Zhu Yuan had when several young princes wanted to break into the courtyard.

It is conceivable that if someone named Zhu Di secretly read the "Book of Heaven" in the box first, the result...so Zhu Yuan had to remind him rashly.

Really rash.

Zhu Yuanzhang attaches great importance to his family. If someone suddenly said to him, you should be careful with your family without sufficient reason, the result will be unpredictable.Therefore, although Zhu Yuan opened his mouth, his words were expressed in a very tactful manner after careful consideration.

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang took a look at Zhu Yuan, his expression was not filled with joy or anger, and he said after a while: "I know how powerful it is."

Zhu Yuan sorted it out again, made sure there was nothing missing, and bowed again: "So, I ask you to leave."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly, and said, "I have ordered you to make arrangements for Houhu. The concubine also prepared a set of daily necessities for you, which is enough for you to live for three years. Do you have any other needs?"

When Zhu Yuanzhang mentioned this, Zhu Yuan remembered it again.

It really does.

Embarrassedly handcuffed again, Zhu Yuan said: "Thank you for your highness and concubine's love. Also, your highness, what I have learned is very different from the current world's knowledge. If possible, I would like to ask for some more books for the next three years of study. I have mastered my knowledge. This kind of trivial matter should not bother Your Highness, but if I want books, I may not be able to buy them in the market, so I can only take the liberty."

The subject wants to read, Zhu Yuanzhang absolutely supports this kind of thing, his expression can't help softening, and he asked: "What book?"

Zhu Yuan paused, and said: "Maybe there are too many, and some of them can't be remembered at the moment. It will take me a few days to make a list."

Zhu Yuanzhang agreed: "Yes, I will send you the list at that time, and I will have someone prepare it for you."

Having said that, there is nothing else.

Zhu Yuanzhang summoned his attendants again and ordered Zhu Yuan to be escorted to Houhu in the north of Jinling City.

After Zhu Yuan left, the hall was silent for a while.

Zhu Yuanzhang sat quietly behind the desk, rubbing the red sandalwood box in front of him repeatedly, and strong curiosity surged in his heart.

Holy book!
The study of economics, 500 years of Guozuo, a prosperous age unprecedented in a thousand years, the trend chart of population changes in the past dynasties of China...the key to everything you have seen and heard in these days is in the wooden box in front of you.

Three years!

You have to wait for three years? !
Why wait three years? !
When the big hand unknowingly touched the small brass lock, Zhu Yuanzhang discovered another problem.

Where are the keys?
Then he realized that the little scholar was probably worried that he would open the lock ahead of time, and he didn't even leave the key. Perhaps, after three years, he could only force it open.

Heh, it's just a brass lock, can't I break it now?
The unknowing rebellion in his heart was brewing, and suddenly someone informed him, which brought Zhu Yuanzhang back to reality.

The person who came was Cui Liang, Minister of Rites.

In the past few days, the Ministry of Rites has successively determined the canonization ceremonies for the queen and the prince on the day of enthronement. Zhu Yuanzhang thought it was too cumbersome, and worried that all the officials would be too busy, so he asked for a simplification.Cui Liang came back to report again, and then talked about another opening ceremony of the amnesty.

Zhu Yuanzhang listened to these carefully, but still felt that it was too complicated.

All kinds of superfluous.

At present, hundreds of thousands of troops are fighting abroad, and the daily affairs are unknown. If you have this time, it is better to review a few more chapters.

However, Lao Zhu did not veto it.

Zhu Yuanzhang also understood that the root of a country is the word "ritual". If he, who is about to become emperor, does not observe etiquette, how can he restrain hundreds of officials and people?

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang remembered another foundation of the country that he had just obtained recently-the study of economics.

Recalling what Zhu Yuan said at the beginning, and thinking about the "production" and "distribution", Zhu Yuanzhang was inexplicably motivated, because he felt that this was the real thing, which was much better than all kinds of cumbersome etiquette.

Ugh.

Unfortunately, we have to wait three years.

Before he knew it, Zhu Yuanzhang began to caress the red sandalwood box in front of him again.

After Cui Liang explained the schedule for tomorrow, he saw the superior rubbing the strange box in front of him and fell into deep thought. If he was a minister, he should protest at this time.

Unfortunately he is not.

After waiting for a while, Zhu Yuanzhang finally came to his senses. Seeing that Cui Liang was still standing in the hall, he nodded and said, "I see. Tomorrow will be according to your arrangement. Let's go down."

Cui Liang did not leave, but brought up another matter: "My lord, regarding the title of the country and the year, can the lord make a decision, the closer the date of the lord's ascension to the throne, some announcements later, or are they needed?"

Cui Liang mentioned this matter before, and initially suggested that the Ministry of Rites should draft some and let Zhu Yuanzhang choose.

Zhu Yuanzhang, a person who likes to name people so much, would leave such an important matter in the hands of others, and rejected Cui Liang's suggestion at that time.

In fact, after the persuasion on the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, Zhu Yuanzhang had already begun to ponder quietly, and there were results.On the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, the ministers once again persuaded him to come in. When Cui Liang asked the next day, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't say that he had already made up his mind.

Always be reserved.

Today is the 24th of the twelfth lunar month, so there is no need to cover up.

Zhu Yuanzhang dipped his pen in the ink and said, "I've already decided that the name of the country is 'Daming'. As for the name of the year, Cui Qing, what do you think of this?"

Cui Liang stepped forward respectfully, looked at Zhu Yuanzhang's writing on the case, and saw two vigorous and powerful characters: Hongwu!
