Daming: Father, I am no longer a teacher

Chapter 90 The Monopoly of Knowledge, Bringing Misfortune to the East
Zhu Xi, Zhu Fang, and Zhu Di, you look at me, and I look at you.

"Fourth, you said..."

"Second brother, it was obviously proposed by you!"

"Why don't you tell me..."

San Xiao was twitchy, unable to express his intentions for a long time, Zhu Biao pretended to be angry:
"You leave without telling me!"

"Brother, don't go..."

Seeing Zhu Biao flicking his sleeves, Zhu Xi was about to leave the East Palace, so he quickly grabbed him.

"Brother, have you often been out of the palace recently?"

The three of them tried to talk to Zhu Biao in a tentative tone.

Zhu Biao was angry and funny, these three guys pouted their buttocks, he knew what the other party wanted to do?
"Ok!"

Naturally, Zhu Biao would not disclose the existence of Zhang Yi, but only replied with one word.

Seeing that Zhu Biao was not on the set, San Xiao could only continue the awkward chat:
"I just don't know what's going on outside the palace, is it fun outside?"

With a straight face, Zhu Biao said:
"You still want to go out to play? It's not like you don't know the rules in this palace. Princes who are underage are not allowed to leave the palace. When you are crowned king, you will have your own palace in the future. You can leave if you want!"

Although Lao Zhu was not crowned king at this time, their children probably knew their future destiny.

The third child wailed when she heard the words.

"How long does it take to be an adult?"

"Brother, I don't like being the prince. Before my father became the emperor, we could run around. If we wanted to leave, we were locked in this stinky palace. We were like prisoners. Everyone said that Yingtian Mansion was good, but we lived In Ying Tian Mansion, but I don't know what Ying Tian looks like?"

Zhu Di was the youngest and the skinniest, so he couldn't help complaining after Zhu Biao finished speaking.

But halfway through his speech, he felt that Zhu Biao's eyes became sharper.

Zhu Di was terrified and quickly knelt down.

"Who told you to be the children of the Tian family? Your wealth and life are related to the foundation of the country, how can you go out at will?

This Ming Dynasty is newly established, there are many Mongol spies out there, even I have to be careful when I leave the palace, how much ability do you think you have? "

Zhu Di knelt down, a little unconvinced:

"I'm not the emperor, so it doesn't matter if something happens..."

"Are you talking again?"

The word "emperor" stimulated Zhu Biao's nerves again, and he became angry.

Zhu Di also seemed to know that he had said the wrong thing, so frightened that he cried, Zhu Biao turned around and asked the startled Zhu Xi and Zhu Yan:

"You think so too?"

Zhu Xing and Zhu Bing shook their heads and rattle their drums, naturally they would not admit it.

Zhu Biao suddenly felt a little dispirited, turned around and left.

Brotherly love, the throne of emperor?
The fourth son's remarks today can be regarded as childish words, but when they grow up in the future, will they really not covet the emperor's position in their hearts?

Zhu marked out the East Palace and had nowhere to go.

So he came to the imperial study that he was familiar with again.

When Lao Zhu was working, he didn't really like eunuchs going in to bother him, so Zhu Biao declined the eunuch's notification and went in alone.

He was just about to call out to Zhu Yuanzhang, but he saw that his father seemed to be sitting upright, but he had actually been asleep on the chair for a while.

He took a deep breath, but did not wake Zhu Yuanzhang up.

Since becoming emperor, at twelve o'clock a day, Zhu Yuanzhang spent more than six hours reviewing memorials in the imperial study every day. After being stimulated by Zhang Yi's phrase "one emperor through the ages", he became more diligent.

Zhu Biao looked around, but found a blanket. He was just about to put it on the emperor, but found that Lao Zhu had been awakened.

"You came……"

The emperor woke up and found that it was Zhu Biao, and his vigilance relaxed a lot.

"I didn't ask you to accompany your mother, why did you come here again?"

"Father is working hard for the national teacher. It is already a sin for the sons and ministers not to share the worries of the father. How can we rest?"

"Nonsense, can I be the same as you? In the future, there will be times when you will work hard..."

Although Lao Zhu was reprimanding Zhu Biao, there was a look of relief in his eyes.

Immediately, he sat up straight, instinctively picked up the memorial and wanted to review it, but he remembered one thing and asked:

"Chang Yuchun's daughter, did she say anything?"

Zhu Biao: ...

Zhu Yuanzhang asked him to find Queen Ma, which probably meant the same thing.

Although Lao Zhu arranged inspections in many places, there were none in the Qingxin Temple. Lan went to find Zhang Yi to ask about his future, and the emperor was very concerned about Zhang Yi's answer.

Among them, Chang, the future princess, Zhu Yuanzhang naturally wanted to know how Zhang Yi would tell her?
Zhu Biao thought for a while, but in the end he still didn't express his conjecture. He just said:
"Sister Chang's words are exactly the same as what we heard from Zhang Yi!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard the words, he seemed thoughtful and said to Zhu Biao casually:
"The marriage between the two of you was arranged by your Uncle Chang and I when we were young, but if... if you have any ideas, I can change you to a princess!"

Zhu Biao shook his head and said:
"Father, the future is illusory, and what the younger brother of the Zhang family said may not be true. If he breaks the contract because of this kind of thing, it will first chill Uncle Chang's heart, and second, it will also hurt the prestige of the Tian family! The younger brother of the Chang family gave advice to the younger sister of the Chang Chang family, saying that the number of days has changed, and it can also change her fate!"

"The number of days has changed, is it because of vaccination?
Those stinky Taoist priests are just annoying, they hide their heads and show their tails, and Zhang Yi is the same. I really want to hang him up and torture him to see how many things this kid has hidden? "

Lao Zhu felt a little annoyed when he mentioned this matter, but his words were just casual talk.

Determine Zhang Yi's value and understand the kid's character.

He knew that once his emperor's identity was exposed, there was a high probability that Zhang Yi would talk nonsense.

That kid is by no means an upright person. With scruples about his status, it is absolutely impossible for Zhang Yi to speak freely as he is now.

It's just my own identity, I don't know how long I can hide it?

In the future, if he wants to use Zhang Yi, he has to find a suitable way to get along with him.

Zhu Biao read some worries from Lao Zhu's eyes, and an idea flashed in his mind.

Since he could guess his own fate from Zhang Yi's clues, wouldn't his father know about it?
He is "one emperor through the ages", so why was his grandson imprisoned for a lifetime? Could it be that the emperor never thought of the possibility of his absence?

Maybe……

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to face this possibility?

Or, did he already have a backup plan in mind?

Is that plan an alternative to yourself?

Zhu Biao took a deep breath and suppressed his wild thoughts.

"Okay, just watch, you go out, go back and have a good rest!

I just received the news that Kong Xixue's son will be able to go to Yingtian today, and I will recruit him into the palace tomorrow, so you should get closer to him.

Even if we don't like him anymore, we can only hold them high. After all, the world still depends on those scholars to govern. If they do too much, it will chill their hearts. "

Zhu Biao heard the words and said:

"My father came to Beijing with Kong Na, intending to... train this person well?"

"It's not about training, the Kong family stays in Qufu honestly, that's the best thing, if it's not for that old man of the Kong family to be a monster, I will at least give him a face.

Whether it is Kong Kejian or Kong Xixue, after all, I don’t really want the Ming Dynasty in my heart. I don’t like this kind of Kong Jiazhen, but it’s very difficult to change them.
That being the case, I might as well look forward to the third generation!

After all, the Kong family holds the [teaching power], and those guys are writing nonsense in Qufu, and I can't easily attack them, public opinion..."

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help sighing when he mentioned this.

He actually didn't realize this problem before he became emperor. In the past, the big guys rebelled together, and it was precarious.

So whether it's Li Shanchang or Liu Bowen, the big guys get along pretty happily. When they become emperor, there is a faint gap between the monarch and his ministers.

This layer of barriers is the power of the prime minister and the power of the emperor.

According to that brat Zhang Yi, this is a battle between the scholar group and the king. Since the Han Dynasty when Confucianism was the only one, this kind of battle has never subsided.

Scholars need to sell what they have learned to the emperor's family to realize their ambitions.

But why doesn't the emperor need scholars to help him govern the world?
Therefore, even if there is a foreign invasion, the Confucian family, which represents the spiritual totem of scholars, will be respected, and this kind of respect will not be transferred according to the emperor's preferences.

Because the power held by scholars, in addition to sharing the power of governing the world with the emperor, also has the power to disseminate knowledge and dominate public opinion.

The king can suppress scholars for a while, but he cannot stop those people from talking nonsense.

How many emperors were slandered by those guys in the history books and written as faint kings.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't like this situation, but he had to compromise. This is also the reason why he got Kong Na to Yingtian.

However, Zhang Yi's crooked trick seemed to open Lao Zhu's mind.

It seems that there is a way to pry open the mouth of the communication rights firmly held by those scholars?

I will talk about this matter later, the emperor shook his head to dispel the distracting thoughts in his mind, and said to Zhu Biao:

"Kong Kejian, Kong Xixue is a person who has benefited from the Yuan Dynasty. They have made up their minds. Even if I drive the Mongols out in the future, it will be difficult to win their favor. Therefore, whether these two people fight or not is not enough to worry about.

Whether or not the Kong family has a heart for the imperial court depends on their third generation. Now that Kong Na is still young, he has the value of wooing!
Let him witness the prosperity of my Ming Dynasty and show him favors, he will naturally be different from his parents! "

Zhu Biao was puzzled: "Father, since you plan to win over the Kong family, why do you treat Kong Kejian like this? You treat Kong Kejian like this, so you are not afraid of passing on the hatred?"

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed:

"Kong Kejian pretends to be smart, so I will teach him a lesson. How can I be afraid of the Kong family? Even if the Kong family hates me, they will at most be incompetent and furious. What else can they do except write a book to scold me for future generations?
What's more, I even found an outlet for them..."

"Father is referring to the Zhang family?"

"That's right!"

Zhu Biao already had some understanding of Zhu Yuanzhang's methods, so he reacted immediately.

No matter how much the Kong family hated Lao Zhu, they would have nothing to do with the emperor. When people are incompetent and furious, they just vent their anger on others.

Is there any better object of anger than the Zhang family?

The two families of Zhang and Kong are both aristocratic families, and both were traitors in the hands of the Mongols. Why is Longhushan now prosperous, but the Kong family is suppressed?
Lao Zhu deliberately brought Zhang Tongwei and the Kong family together, firstly to use Longhushan to stimulate the Kong family, and secondly, he might not want to use the Kong family's hatred to restrict the Longhushan he was going to support.

This is the emperor's mind.

"As for Conne..."

Zhu Yuanzhang said!
