Hongwu Survival Guide

Along the coast of Mingzhou, the hairtail flood in winter gathers from the northern sea and then migrates from north to south. The small yellow croaker flood in spring is similar to the large yellow croaker flood in summer, gathering from the southern sea and migrating north.

According to the theory of a young man Pingzhang, these... are related to temperature, food and reproduction.

Specifically, the Mingzhou Maritime Academy under the jurisdiction of the Yinghai Division has begun more detailed research.

The time entered March of the second year of Hongwu.

I failed to catch up last year, but this year is the first spring catch after the establishment of Yinghai Division.

At the end of February earlier, the spring fishing team of the Yinghai Division came to the sea off Xiangshan, and on February [-]th, they determined the location of the fish and officially released the nets.

The annual fishing target reported by the Yinghai Division to Jinling this year is 300 million tons, which means that there will be three fishing seasons in spring, summer and winter, and an average of 100 million tons will be caught in each season.

The small yellow croaker flood is expected to last for a short period of time, only about two months.

Therefore, in order to achieve the goal of 100 million tons in a single season, the average daily catch should not be less than 1.5 tons.

Actually……

On February 2.7th, the net was released for the first time. With better preparations this year, Yinghai Division's single-day harvest reached [-] tons.

to the present.

It was the seventh day of March. In the evening, Fang Li, the deputy envoy of Yinghai who was still on the front line and presided over the overall fishing situation on the 5000-fishing giant boat arranged by the young Pingzhang, got it soon after finishing work on this day. Preliminary statistics.

A single day... 3.9 tons!

Fang Li knew that this was not the limit.

Schools of small yellow croakers are still gathering in spring, and they are heading north. It is estimated that the densest area of ​​small yellow croakers is in the Sheshan Ocean outside the Yangtze River Estuary.

By the time……

Can't even think about it.

Therefore, according to the current single-day income, there is a high probability that the catch of small yellow croakers in Yinghai Division will easily exceed 200 million tons in this year's spring catch.

200 million tons!
Moreover, higher... is not impossible.

Similarly, the other two fishing seasons actually have this potential.

After all, Yinghai Division has been continuously building fishing boats since its establishment, and has been tirelessly exploring fishing grounds. Even the follow-up processing of fish catches has been continuously making various improvements.

All of this, according to the "Economics" written by a certain teenager Pingzhang, is to increase productivity.

Higher productivity, of course, leads to more gains.

At the moment, seeing today's fishing results, Fang Li personally wrote a report and sent it to Mingzhou overnight, and at the same time called a deployment meeting. The core...is what the young Pingzhang has been instilling, that you can't use up the water to catch fish.

In the next few days, Fang Li plans to no longer pursue production, but to increase the screening process.

Fish that are too small must be released on the spot.

It also has to be said that Zhu Yuan's continuous indoctrination has achieved remarkable results up to now.

In addition to releasing the small fish, Fang Li also reminded the two heads of the Mingzhou Poultry Breeding Company who came with the fleet, Lin Jiu and Kuang San, that when necessary, even if they directly feed the ducks with big fish, they must not be used. Small fish that haven't grown yet.

After Zhu Yuan confirmed the artificial hatching project last year, the winter catch was still in the planning stage, and the season was not right. When it came to this spring catch, Lin Jiu and Kuang San, the chief and deputy managers of the breeding company, directly brought 10 hatchlings that had just recently hatched. Good ducklings come here.

The goal is to experiment with a 'boat farming' project.

If it can be successful, in the following sea fishing process, the transport of the fish into the water will no longer be necessary, and they will be fed directly nearby.When the fishing season ends in two or three months, the ducks raised on board the boat will be young ducks when they leave, and they will probably be mature ducks when they arrive on the shore.

Not only that, but at the same time as the adult ducks are obtained, the duck manure produced during the breeding process will also be collected, and a batch of fertilizer will be obtained further.

The results of the guano experiment had spread throughout Daming, and it was clear to Ying Haisi.

Ducks eat fish, and the feces they get may be somewhat different from bird droppings, but among them... the so-called 'phosphorus element' that is urgently needed by crops will definitely not be lacking.Going a step further, the duck landed on the shore, from feathers to flesh, it was also fully utilized, and nothing was wasted.

Fang Li's letter arrived in Dinghai the next day.

The Yinghai Division and the Naval Governor's Office have recently been preparing for the first sea transportation of grain in the second year of Hongwu.

last year……

Liu Lian, deputy envoy of Yinghai, remembered very clearly that the first batch of grain left Dinghai on March [-]th. This year, according to the observation of Liu Laoqi, who is getting more and more alive and healthy, the first southerly wind that can go to sea is probably around this time. a few days.

Moreover, compared to last year's rush and apprehension, this year, everything seems to be easier.

Especially with the addition of watches that can accurately time the time, the Ying Hai Division will also conduct more accurate surveying and mapping involving longitude this year while presiding over the shipping.

Thinking of that timetable, thinking of all the knowledge that young Pingzhang had taught, if not for his status, Liu Lian really wanted to go to sea once.

In addition to transporting food by sea for the first time, when the south wind blows, the navy will also organize an expedition fleet.

The goal is the country of Wa.

Follow-up to the Battle of Daiqu.

According to the young Pingzhang's plan, he intends to establish an overseas base to protect businessmen, deter the Japanese nation, and even prepare for further military operations in the future.

If it was a year ago, Liu Lian would never agree.

just now……

Having read the "Production Chapter" of "Economics" and combined with what the boy Pingzhang once said, even though the "Distribution Chapter" has not yet been released, Liu Lian has already understood the importance of the matter.

Of course, as an orthodox Confucian scholar, Liu Lian felt that this was not very good.However, as a Chinese commoner, imagining the tragedy in Shimu Town that just happened a few days ago, Liu Lian's thinking has changed too much after vomiting blood.

Since I was born on this land, no matter whether I am an official or a citizen, I always have to think more about my own people.

Others, henceforth, are just other things.

After receiving Fang Li's report, Liu Lian immediately summoned all the members of Ying Hai Division to discuss the contents.

At the beginning when the target of 300 million tons of marine catches was reported for this year, everyone in the Yinghai Division and even the capital knew that this was a very conservative figure.But... the current reality is still somewhat beyond expectations.

It’s just in the early stage of testing the water in the south. This has not yet reached the final Sheshan Ocean gathering area. It has reached 3.9 tons in a single day. Then, next... the amount of sea catches in a single day will not double. impossible.

After all, this time, compared with the more than 1300 large and small fishing boats caught in the winter last year, the number of fishing boats dispatched by Yinghai Division in Mingzhou this year has exceeded 1800.

On the other hand, the difficulty of fishing small yellow croaker is much lower than that of hairtail.

According to the single-day fishing volume in Fang Li Bao, a little calculation, a conservative estimate, this spring fishing can also harvest 200 million tons of fish.Even, if we work hard, it is not impossible to reach the annual target of 300 million tons at one time.

300 million tons in a single season, and 1000 million tons in one year... I'm afraid.

This is only Mingzhou!
Liu Lian knew that at about the same time, the Guangdong, Fujian and Shandong Yinghai sub-divisions had already started this year's spring fishing.

Even if it's just the first year of testing the waters, the three divisions of the sea division add up to a million tons of harvest in a single season, and there will always be.

So, what about the whole year?

After such a calculation, the result obtained, Yinghai Division, was excited, and even a little panicked.

because……

This year may be weaker, but according to the current progress, I am afraid that by next year, the total fish caught by the various coastal departments... in a year will exceed Daming's food tax revenue.

How much can such a huge amount of income and corresponding resources support this country!
At the end of the meeting, Liu Lian also hastily drafted a memorial and sent it to Jinling to announce the good news and also...to ask for suggestions.

The feeling of creating an extra piece of Daming Grain Fu... really makes everyone a little unsure!
Jinling.

Lao Zhu received Liu Lian's report on the tenth day of March, and he was also excited and even a little bit at a loss.

His Majesty the Emperor also felt that he was a little out of control.

then……

Undecided when things happen, two or three generations of grandchildren.

When Zhu Yuan came to the palace and saw Liu Lian's report, he was overjoyed and analyzed it for Lao Zhu, and His Majesty the Emperor was no longer so disturbed.

Even if the fishing volume in Mingzhou reaches 1000 million tons this year, so what?

According to a brand-new unit given by Zhu Yuan before, "ton", by calculation, 1 ton is equivalent to 1000 catties, 1000 million dan, but in fact it is only 100 million tons.

In just over a year, it is indeed enough to be proud of such achievements.

However, this is still far from the [-]-million-ton sea-fishing potential along the coast of Daming in Zhu Yuan’s memory, let alone the annual sea-fishing volume of hundreds of millions of tons around the world a few hundred years later.

The grandfather and grandson discussed it, but this time, it was Lao Zhu who proposed to limit it.

Avoid fishing out of water.

The sea is a field.

However, since such a good field does not even need to be plowed, but only needs to be harvested, it should be cherished all the more.

Lao Zhu also found problems in Zhu Yuan's analysis.

At this stage, Ming's sea fishing is only in the offshore fishing at most one or two hundred miles away from the coast. In comparison, after a few hundred years, ocean fishing can extend to the distant sea thousands of miles away.

Looking at it now, this is equivalent to just moving around in a small temporary area in the field of the sea.

A small place has limited potential.

Therefore, more caution should be exercised.

After thinking about it, Lao Zhu quickly wrote back in person, asking the Mingzhou Yinghai Division to lock the amount of sea catch this spring at 200 million tons.

As soon as the goal is achieved, sea fishing is stopped immediately.

The same is true for the fishing seasons in the next two seasons, with no more than 600 million tons for the whole year.

Of course, Mingzhou's sea fishing potential is more than 600 million tons. This year is the case for the time being. In the future, the plan is to gradually increase the range of sea fishing and carry out some more refined operations to ensure that the sea field will not be damaged. At the same time, the output will be increased. Further increase to 1000 million tons.

When Mingzhou reaches 1000 million tons, it will start to lock down.

Until further development of the far sea.

On this basis, the excess productivity in Mingzhou will be transferred to the other three major sea divisions.

The final plan, in the next three years, is basically in line with the first "Three-Year Plan". The Mingzhou Yinghai Division has an annual sea fishing target of 1000 million tons, and the other three companies each reach about 300 million tons.

Adding them all together, the Damingying Marine Division's annual sea catch target in three years' time is locked at 2000 million tons.

2000 million tons per year is Zhu Yuan's original 10-year target.However, in actual implementation, it only takes three or four years.

This is still under the circumstances that the court took the initiative to bind hands and feet.

Therefore, the matter is certain, not only Lao Zhu is emotional, but Zhu Yuan himself is also inevitably emotional.

Feel the richness of this sea.

I am even more moved...the diligence and wisdom of the people in this land.

After all, I just pointed out a direction.

If it wasn't for this piece of land, it would be something else...it's hard to say.

Things made people happy, and once again they left their own baby's 23 grandchildren to dine together. This time, not only the eldest son, but also the second and third sons were called. During the conversation, Lao Zhu also revealed some ideas about the canonization at the end of the month.

The first canonization, what Lao Zhu meant, the fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh are still young, so forget it for now! .

Lao Zhu also said bluntly that this is a kind of encouragement.I hope that the sons will improve one by one. In the future, when they see their ability and temperament, they will make further canonizations.

If it doesn't work, the seal will still be sealed, but that's all.

Regarding this, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no objection, Zhu Xi and Zhu Fan have no objection, and Zhu Yuan...of course also have no objection.

What the ancestors said is what it is!
After finishing lunch in this way and sending away a few teenagers, Lao Zhu continued to be busy all afternoon and came to the harem at night.

Rest at Mashi's side tonight.

This time, I didn't stay busy until late. After 10 o'clock on the clock, I came to the bedroom of Kunning Palace.

As usual, Mrs. Ma was still up, and was reading the new issue of "Da Ming Monthly".

Blink of an eye March.

In a blink of an eye... it's a new episode.

Still lively.

The focus of this issue is last month's plowing ceremony, which introduced steam pumps and even the application prospects of steam machinery.

In addition, a more special point is that articles in simplified characters have begun to appear.

With regard to simplified characters, after receiving the support of Lao Zhu, Zhu Yuan has been operating and promoting.

At the moment, Mrs. Ma is also thinking about this article called "Laoshan Taoist", all of which are in simplified characters. Compared with the weird "Witch and the Black Goat" in the previous issue, it has returned to the mainland of China.

The point is, after the conversion from traditional to simplified, Ma found that there was no obstacle in his reading.

Mr. Ma also knew the meaning of promoting simplified characters. After seeing it for himself, he confirmed that this conversion would not cause too much confusion, so he was relieved.Otherwise, she would have to persuade her husband.

Just thinking about it, when she noticed her husband appeared, Madam quickly put down the monthly magazine and called the maid to help Lao Zhu change his clothes.

Lao Zhu let his wife take off his robe, while looking at the "Da Ming Monthly", he said another thing: "For the canonization, I called some of their brothers today... Heh, why not?" There is a reason, I have said it all."

Mark nodded.

Compared with her son and grandnephew, as a pillow person, she certainly knew her husband's thoughts earlier.

This time, Lao Zhu only planned to confer four princes.

One for Zhu Xing, one for Zhu Fan, one for Zhu Yuan, and... one for Zhu Shouqian.

Needless to say, the first three, two direct sons, one is more descendant than the direct grandson, as for the last one, Ma knows, more, it is still a kind of compensation.

The husband has always been clear about rewards and punishments.

At that time, if a nephew who was only in his 20s hadn't been struggling to defend Hongdu for more than [-] days, until his husband arrived with troops, and completed the battle of Poyang Lake, which was almost a doomed battle, I'm afraid there would be no current situation. Ming dynasty.

This credit, the husband has always remembered.

Even if he couldn't stand up to the fickleness of people's hearts, since Zhu Wenzheng left an heir, he still had to give what should be given.

Thinking about this, Ma said: "Shouqian gave it to the Ninth Emperor, I think it's okay. Yuan'er... just give it to the Twelfth... same as Xing'er and Chen'er, husband, is this... too much? "

Old Zhu shook his head: "Do you think Yuan'er shouldn't?"

"It's not that it shouldn't be," Ma said, "It's what you said... You, heh, also heard Yuan'er say that if the reward is paid too early, in the future, you can't just stop paying it all the time." ?”

Old Zhu said: "In the future, what should be given...of course it will be given."

"That's going to surpass Xiao'er and Fang'er," said Ma Shi, "A county king has more generations than the prince, and the concubine knows that Yuan'er deserves it, but...it's always a little bit out of etiquette. "

"This..." Old Zhu said, "I forgot to tell you."

Ma was puzzled.

Lao Zhu changed into light clothes, sent a few maids away, took his wife to the table and sat down, casually flipping through the "Da Ming Monthly" that Ma Shi had just browsed, and said: "Speaking of which, this is also the original Speaking of which, in the future... 樉'er and 棡'er, or if the others are up to the challenge, I will entrust them all according to the globe, so that they will be completely self-reliant. Moreover, it is not self-proclaimed king, but self-proclaimed king. emperor."

Stand on your own as an emperor?

Ma Shi was stunned for a moment, can it be... Is that so?

When Lao Zhu talked about it, he became more and more interested. He analyzed the joints with his wife according to the thinking of his precious 23rd grandson, and finally said: "At that time, in order to ensure the stability of the country, no matter which country it is, the title will be reduced. It has to be reduced, but, the emperor, it is natural that it must be hereditary. Another thing is that all eggs are not put in one basket. According to Yuaner, even if one branch declines, there will always be other branches that can prosper. In the future, I will leave a lesson from the ancestors, so that they will not only do their best when they are in an emergency, but at least... it will not be difficult to protect each other."

After hearing what her husband said, Mrs. Ma thought about it for a while, and felt that it was feasible.

But also found one of the problems.

In the future... a group of children, when... shall they proclaim themselves emperors together?

This is a problem.

Mashi did not mention this sensitive issue at the moment, but asked: "Husband, what about... Yuan'er?"

"Yuan'er said he didn't have such a mind," Lao Zhu said, "I can also see that he really doesn't have such a mind, he just wants to enjoy the wealth and honor for the rest of his life. As the ancestor, I will naturally give him the wealth and honor of this life." .”

Mashi nodded.

Instead, he thought of the two concubines who were pregnant next to the child.

She didn't even want to marry a regular wife, what a nonsense!

However, in private, Mrs. Ma thought about Zhu Yuan's always stable temperament, and occasionally even thought, maybe... that child did it on purpose.

The history books are full of high achievements, and the child's achievements are also too high.So, doing this may also be for self-defilement, or even self-protection.

Her husband also talked to her.

He was originally a young man who could be immortal in three ways: "Li De", "Gong Gong" and "Li Yan", but he voluntarily gave up the first one.

Still the first one.

Therefore, under the deep-rooted traditional concept, Ma Shi was very displeased with this matter at first, but after thinking about it a lot, he gradually understood it according to his own thinking.

that kid...

It's not easy to put so much thought into it.

After thinking about it, Mrs. Ma laughed again, and looked at her husband: "The prince...that title is not bad."

Old Zhu also thought of something, and nodded in the same way: "Yeah, I thought about it at the beginning, and at first I thought it was a bit 'responsive', but... think about it again, where is it 'responsible'? , I am Daming... Daming!"

……

When Lao Zhu and his wife were talking, Zhu Yuan... slept a little late today.

For the "Distribution" of "Economics".

These days, I write whenever I have time, and I have been deliberating and sorting out in my mind for a long time. What I have to do is to put a lot of things on paper.

So, too, finally done.

By the time I finished writing, it was already past ten o'clock in the middle of the night.

He fell asleep directly on the low couch in the Westinghouse, vaguely remembering to explain something before going to bed, and asked the women around him to help proofread and transcribe it.

a new day.

As soon as Zhu Yuan got up, Xieyi sent the copied "Economics" "Distribution Chapter" to his adults.

Every woman in Xieyi knows that this matter is urgent.

A prince who concerns adults.

So proofread and transcribed overnight.

Zhu Yuan understood what the women around him were thinking, and without further ado, after breakfast, he personally sent them to the palace.

Lao Zhu has also been looking forward to the "Assignment Chapter" for a long time. When he got the manuscript, he put down what he was doing and started to read it.

It's also not too thick, with more than 8 words. Lao Zhu read it once, but it wasn't enough, so he read it again, until it was past 12 noon, and he left his precious 23 generations of grandchildren to have lunch together again.

After lunch, after a detailed discussion, the manuscript was sent to the printing office of Jinling University on the same day, and the manuscript must be printed within three days without sparing manpower and material resources.

The manuscript was sent out, and the news spread.

All the officials in the court know that the completion of the "Distribution Chapter" is equivalent to a complete "Li Yan" of the young Pingzhang.

With the arrival of various news about the spring arrest, Mingzhou's 'contributions' became more solid, and with this 'making a statement', everything followed in a logical way.

So until March [-]th.

The completed book, which was rushed day and night by the publishing house, was finally completed, and the sample book was sent to Lao Zhu.

At the same time, in just a few days, because there was no taboo like the last time when the "Production Chapter" was engraved on the premise of not understanding Lao Zhu's attitude, this time, many contents of the manuscript were circulated in advance.

Even Qian Tang, the vice president of Jinling University, simply lived in the publishing house these days, without disturbing the work of the craftsmen, and just copied a manuscript for himself by hand.

At the same time as the discussion about the "distribution chapter" was unfolding, everyone felt that... Vice President Qian was a little crazy.

The kind that is more enlightened than Dache Dawu.

For several days in a row, I kept nagging.

I also went to the mansion of the young Pingzhang again, and paid homage to the saint again.

On the other hand, when the new book was printed, Lao Zhu immediately ordered it to be distributed throughout the country.

In the next few days, Mingzhou, who successfully delivered the first batch of northbound grain this year, received this book. After the beginning of spring, Xu Da, who presided over the preparation of another reverse "grass-grass valley", received this book and is still on his way Xue Shu and his party on the way to Gansu received this book, and all places in central Sichuan that were forced to surrender last year also received this book...

Compared with the "production chapter" of "Economics", this time's "distribution chapter" aroused much more lively discussions.

because……

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that compared to the "production" which is beneficial to everyone, this "distribution" will be implemented in the future, which will be earth-shaking.

Can……

The excitement is the excitement, and the discussion is the discussion, but few people jump out and publicly refute the theory of the young Pingzhang.

Because everyone has brains.

Juvenile Pingzhang's theory will inevitably harm the interests of some people in the future, but fundamentally, it is for the sake of long-term peace and stability in this world.

Like Confucianism.

Confucianism is not perfect, but, for thousands of years, why all dynasties, whether orthodox or foreign, tend to Confucianism, because... the fundamental philosophy of Confucianism is correct.

These right things can make the world more orderly.

same.

A certain teenager's "Economics", the "production chapter" is okay, but the "distribution chapter" must make people feel uncomfortable after reading it. Why should I distribute my things to others?

However, if 'people' are unwilling, 'heaven' will intervene.

The way of heaven is to make up for what is not enough if there is more damage!

This sentence can also be understood in another way: people take the initiative to "allocate", it can be gentle or slow, but if people are not willing to take the initiative to do so, then when God starts to intervene, they will What I saw was that the world is not benevolent!

Once the world is not benevolent, everything is a humble dog.

Under Huangchao's giant pound, no matter whether it is the poor or the rich, when the world is turned upside down, they are all minced meat.

Why did Huang Chao get into trouble?

Because of the severe drought in the Kanto region, because the people are in dire straits.

Even if it doesn't go too far, it's just that people who are a little older in Daming at the moment are not lacking in feelings.

In the past few decades, the world was in chaos, wars broke out everywhere, and the people were in dire straits.

Even the "human cannibalism" mentioned in the "Production Chapter" did not know how much happened.

Who wants to experience such a scene again?

Of course, the Ming Dynasty was the founding of the country, and the world is considered to be stable. Looking at the various things in this country in the past year, there are countless fishing camps, penicillin that saves lives and wounds, and that seems to be breaking the sky. The 'Three-Year Plan', all kinds of things that everyone has never seen, are thriving.

Therefore, this generation, you don't have to worry.

Can……

Don't you need to worry about your descendants?
If it is still in accordance with the past, it will take two to 300 years, or three to 50 years, it will be a chaos in the world, it will be a time when the people are in dire straits, who wants it?
If you don't want to, what should you do?
Did not know before.

Confucianism says that disasters from heaven are due to the emperor not cultivating benevolence.

So everyone made the ceremony to the extreme.

However, still do not wake up.

When "The Science of Economics" came out, I realized that "li" is only one leg, and another leg is missing, which is called "force".

To 'produce'.

Continuously improve productivity, produce more resources, and let the people of the world have no worries about food and clothing.

To 'allocate'.

Even if absolute fairness cannot be achieved, the wealth of the world cannot be too unbalanced.

After doing this, those who have lived for thousands of years dare not say it, but when the young Pingzhang came out of the mountain, he shouted "give 500 years of Guozuo" is more than enough!

More than enough!

Amidst such discussions, the time came to the end of March in the second year of Hongwu.

The exact time for the canonization of the kings has been set: March [-]th.

This is also considered a grand ceremony.

Full face up and down, intensive preparations began many days in advance.

In the meantime, there were still controversies.

The etiquette of the canonization of the kings was established by the Ministry of Rites in the previous dynasty, and various specifications also have examples to follow.

However, His Majesty the Emperor once again broke the convention.

Let's talk about the four princes, two princes, and two county kings who are going to be canonized this time.

The two princes have nothing to say.

The two county kings, logically, the edicts used for the canonization should be made of silver, which is the so-called 'silver book'. In addition, the seals of the two county kings should be made of gold-plated silver according to the regulations of the previous dynasty. However, His Majesty the Emperor With a wave of his hand, everything is made of gold.

All use gold!
This……

It's all prince level.

How does this work?
However... the Ministry of Rites' objection was invalid.

The two nephews and grandnephews are all gold books and gold treasures, and even the size of the gold books and gold treasures, His Majesty the Emperor requested that they be exactly the same as those of the two princes.

This is too messy.

Earlier, His Majesty the Emperor unreasonably conferred the title of two princesses, that's all, a woman's family... the title of a princess cannot be hereditary, and now... two county kings who are equivalent to princes.

Even though this time, even the title of the royal family will be reduced, but... after all, it is the county king.

Qian Yongren, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, tried his best to persuade him, but to no avail.

A group of important ministers in the center also tried to persuade him, but it was also fruitless. A certain Yushi Zhongcheng who talked too much was beaten out of the Meridian Gate by the emperor's guards with sticks.

Ok.

forget about it.

His Majesty the Emperor is determined to go his own way, what can everyone do?
As for privately...

In fact, both the government and the opposition can understand it.

His Majesty the Emperor has always attached great importance to relatives.

This is one of them.

As for the two county kings.

Let me talk about Zhu Shouqian first, the son of Zhu Wenzheng.

No matter what happened at the beginning, Zhu Wenzhong's achievements in defending Hongdu have not been forgotten by many people. Without the delay of more than [-] days, Chen Youliang's army took advantage of the emptiness of Jinling and drove straight in. Who is known in this world is still unknown.

Therefore, Zhu Wenzhong's achievements are beyond doubt.

Later, Zhu Wenzhong went the wrong way, he was not blessed, and the title fell to his son, and he was also equal to the prince, which is understandable.

As for a certain young man who was in charge of Zhongshu Pingzhang's political affairs as a royal family, although he was an adopted grandnephew, to be honest, his origin and identity are a bit confusing, but if anyone wants to say that Zhu Yuan is not qualified to be a county king, he does not need to be an emperor. When His Majesty speaks, other people will jump out to refute.

The young Pingzhang who has been "contributing meritorious service" and "making speeches" at a young age is not qualified, and whoever is qualified.

Amid all the discussions, the time finally came to March [-]th.

The big gift has already started one day in advance.

On March [-]th, Zhu Yuan and several other teenagers who were about to be canonized had already worshiped the Taimiao under the arrangement of the Ministry of Rites.

Nowadays.

Zhu Yuan still got up before dawn.

However, there is no need to be in the dark like in the morning.

After eating breakfast, taking a bath and changing clothes calmly, he took the car sent in advance by the Ministry of Rites and arrived at the palace. The sky was already bright.

In front of Fengtian Temple.

Surrounded by solemn guards of honor, hundreds of officials lined up neatly.

His majesty the emperor, wearing a crown, entered the Fengtian Hall.

The auspicious time has come.

The sound of solemn rites and music sounded for more than half a quarter of an hour before the music stopped.

Qian Yongren, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, stepped forward, received the canonized edict from the official, and read aloud: "I am blessed by the gods of heaven and earth, and the spirit of the ancestors. Start a business in Jiangzuo. Now the Central Plains have been established, Haiyu is cleared up, captives are fleeing to the desert, the great rule is upright, Li Shujing is stable, and it is right to discuss martial arts for honor rewards. I have seven sons. At the beginning of my accession, I have established The eldest son is marked as the crown prince. The titles of the sons are to be rewarded to the meritorious officials. However, the distinction between superiority and inferiority should be determined early. Considering that the sons are young, their character has not been established, and they have no merits. Today, the four people will not be granted. , all are given book treasures, set up to pass on from generation to generation, official affiliation and various etiquette, have been customized. In the play! Facing the sky to calm the chaos, it is actually the living and the people. Know."

After Qian Yongren finished reading the canonization edict, amidst the sound of ceremonies and music again, the ceremonial officer led His Royal Highness the four young men who were about to be canonized into the main hall from the east gate of Fengtian Hall.

The music stopped.

On the other side, a group of servants have already held the treasures and waited for a batch.

Amidst the ceremonial officials singing praises, the emperor's next son, Zhu Xi, walked to the front of the emperor and bowed according to the ritual.

The hall is very large.

Zhu Yuan, who was waiting far away, only heard the voice of "Conferring the prince to be the king of Qin", followed by a long reading time.

There is a unique imperial edict on the treasure book of every prince.

The reading book is over, and it is reading the treasure again.

The words on the king's big seal should also be read out to show solemnity.

After reading the book and reading the treasure, the prime minister knelt down to award the king of Qin with the book treasure, and the canonization was officially completed.

Then there was Zhu Bing.

Now that Zhu Xing became the King of Qin as before, I remember mentioning it to Lao Zhu earlier, so, no accident, Zhu Xing should be the King of Jin, and there is a high probability that a young man who is only eight years old behind him is still the King of Jingjiang.

What Zhu Yuan was curious about was...how about himself?

According to the rules, the king of the county must be prefixed with two characters. In name, he inherited the lineage of the old Zhu's second brother, Xuyi Wang. Brother's closeness, you know, because of closeness, Lao Zhu's two sisters, one is the aloof Princess Cao Guo, and the other is just the ordinary Princess Taiyuan.

Cao State and Taiyuan, a prefecture and a city, can see the gap.

Also, the king of Nanchang who Lao Zhu pursued as his elder brother is more fond of the king of Xuyi who he misses. This... is Zhu Wenzheng's real achievement.

Nanchang is Hongdu.

If Zhu Wenzheng did not make a mistake, there is a high probability that the canonization this time will also be 'King of Nanchang'.

Zhu Yuan's thoughts fluttered and he saw that after Zhu Yan became the 'King of Jin' again, it was his turn.

Zhu Yuan, who was wearing a seven-chapter Mianfu, walked to the throne, followed the guidance of the ceremony officer, saluted the old Zhu, and then turned to the west side of the throne.

Inside the hall.

Under the joint gaze of His Majesty the Emperor, His Highness the Crown Prince, and the officials watching the ceremony, the ceremony officer's long voice echoed: "Confer the grand nephew of the emperor as the king of Mingzhou."

King of Mingzhou!
Inside and outside the main hall, when the ceremonial officer sang the name, many people were startled, and then they took it for granted.

Pingzhang, a young man of the imperial court, and the current king of Mingzhou County, his most important achievements happen to be in Mingzhou.

However, after taking it for granted, someone noticed another thing.

Mingzhou.

Ming dynasty!

The country's name 'Daming' originated from 'Mingzhou'. Is this... is it some kind of God's arrangement?
even……

Can the young county king who has just been granted the title bear this name?

Zhu Yuan was also a little stunned when he heard his title.Moreover, he understood more than others inside and outside the hall.

In the past, in order to avoid the name of the Ming Dynasty, Mingzhou was changed to a more familiar name, Ningbo, a few years after the founding of the Ming Dynasty.

This time...

Most likely, it won't change.

Thinking of this, the ritual officer also started to read the book.

Zhu Yuan withdrew his thoughts and listened carefully, so he also noticed the words about "passing on the twelfth generation".

Zhu Yuan's title of king of Mingzhou is equivalent to that of King Qin and King Jin just now, and can be passed on to the twelve generations. Compared with the previous name, even the golden book and gold treasure that is obviously not in accordance with the etiquette system are even more impressive to all the people inside and outside the hall. The officer was shocked.

Especially when there is a comparison afterwards.

Immediately afterwards, when Zhu Yuan's canonization ended, the last Zhu Shouqian was indeed King Jingjiang. However, although he was also a golden book and treasure that did not conform to the etiquette system, this newly promoted county king could only be passed on to the ninth generation.

It seems that there are only three lives left, but... In the future, there will be almost a hundred years for the third life.

A hundred years is enough to change too many things.

The canonization link was completed, followed by the common congratulations of all officials inside and outside the hall.

After the etiquette was over, Lao Zhu finally stepped down from the throne, and instead of leading his descendants to the apse immediately, he walked out of Fengtian Hall and came to the square in front of the main hall.

Zhu Yuan and other teenagers naturally followed closely.

It was about nine o'clock, and it was another sunny day. The morning sun shone on the open square, shining a golden light, which seemed to herald the rising of an empire.

Lao Zhu felt the warm spring sun, looked at the hundreds of officials still lined up in the square, and looked at the clear blue sky in the distance. For a while, many pictures from the past many, many years in his mind were like flowing water, turning page by page Pass.

In the past, I could only refer to the past, and reflect on myself three times a day. Regarding the country that I have worked hard for more than ten years, I never thought that I would be able to have today's old Zhu. I am both scared and confused, so I have been cautious for more than ten years , did not dare to slack off.

Now, looking at this country again, Lao Zhu feels like the sky today.

Clear, distant.

Let people move forward with confidence.

All of this is just because there is an extra teenager by his side.

Thinking of this, Lao Zhu couldn't help turning his head to look, and saw that the young man was also looking up at the sky, as if he was looking at a far, far away place, so he was curious and asked, "Yuan'er, what are you looking at?"

Zhu Yuan came back to his senses. Under this situation, there were also countless emotions in his heart. Faced with the inquiry of Lao Zhu, who was more inclined to be an elder than an emperor, he smiled and said: "My ancestor, I am looking at the future."

"The future," Lao Zhu also smiled, "What should it be?"

Zhu Yuan thought for a while, and he didn't say any more about the ideas about this land that he had described to his ancestors many times. Instead, under the bright spring sun full of high spirits, he read eight words aloud emotionally: "Great China, brilliant Ming Dynasty!"

PS:

This time it's really over.

I am not a person who likes the end, or even fears it. My favorite movies and novels have been afraid of the end since I was a child.

The last book was obviously able to end early, but I was still reluctant to leave it there, thinking about writing it occasionally in the future.

For this book, I thought about it when I was revising it. According to the slow rhythm of my code words, after one year in the book, there are millions of words outside the book, 3000 million words in one book, and it is actually quite good to write until I retire.

And, even though it's been off for a while, the remuneration and subscriptions are even pretty good.

Iron rice bowl.

However, life can't be like this after all, it always has to move forward.

Goodbye everyone.
