People in Hongwu, from heavenly master to emperor master

Chapter 152 Two Worlds, What Is National Destiny?

Zhu Yuanzhang is a person who attaches great importance to "power".
Zhang Yi was the promoter of Mathematics to enter the imperial examination, but turned around to take advantage of this trend to make money, Lao Zhu was somewhat uncomfortable.

Zhu Biao understood the emperor best, and he deliberately proposed it, but in fact he wanted to excuse Zhang Yi.

It's just that he didn't expect that Zhu Yuanzhang took the initiative to express that he didn't mind.

This Zheng Mingming and Zhang Yi are somewhat different in Father Huang's heart.

Zhu Yuanzhang took out a pencil:
"Do you still remember what he said when I bought the pencil formula from Zhang Yi?
When I bought this pen, I didn't think it would have much promotional value!
But when Zhang Yi implemented the examination system, and after the discussion with Liu Bowen,

Pencils have in fact become a very popular commodity,
Gao Jianxian reported one thing to me. On this pencil, the orders from Guozixue and other places were counted last month.

The pencil workshop I set up casually has created a profit of 500 taels for me!

Moreover, this is just the beginning, this pencil has a vague tendency to sell well..."

"Even if it's a big hit, it shouldn't surprise Father!"

"That's right, I don't care about the money, but the things that the kid brought out make me feel like he's making money...

The pencil is just a pawn, but when it falls behind, it becomes a part of the reform.

I always feel that no matter how absurd and nonsensical what he did at the time, there will always be some different consequences!

So this time I don't want to care about him, just watch!

Maybe he is messing around and opening up some new situation for me..."

It turned out that the emperor had this idea, Zhu Biao smiled.

To make Lao Zhu, who does not believe in evil, believe in metaphysics, the younger brother of the Zhang family is also very powerful.

"Let's go, I haven't seen that child for a long time, I will meet you today!"

"Indeed, Erchen also wants to chat with the younger brother of the Zhang family!"

The father and son moved as they said, and Zhu Yuanzhang ordered him to go out of the palace, and someone made arrangements immediately.

After a while, the carriage left the palace and walked in the downtown area.

"get off!"

The emperor walked halfway and asked Zhu Biao to get off.

Zhu Biao looked puzzled, and followed the emperor to a restaurant.

On the second floor, the father and son found a seat by the window and sat down, surrounded by guards.

In the distance, someone was speaking, but Zhu Biao couldn't hear those stories clearly, he just listened vaguely, as if he was talking about the current emperor!
"This restaurant is owned by me...

Look at the cloth shop on the opposite side, which is also our family's property. You have been to the pencil workshop in the distance...

From now on, you will try to manage these things.
You are still young, and I brought you by my side. Although I have heard it through my ears and eyes, you are still immature when dealing with government affairs.

I trust your character, but I can't trust your ability!

So in the past few years, your main task is to study with Song Lian and the others, and to study...

It's just that since I have no chance to know you, that kid of the Zhang family, I bought these properties, originally it was just a game, to put a layer of skin on some school inspectors.

But looking back, these things might not be able to train people!
So I leave it to you to play, it doesn't matter if you play badly!

No matter what lessons you can learn, you will finally live up to my painstaking efforts! "

Upon hearing this, Zhu Biao got up and saluted.

"Although you have also experienced hardships with me, after all, you have never really experienced the sufferings of the people. Now that you are out of the palace, you will occasionally use your eyes to see this market!
Over the years, there have been calls in the imperial court for me to abolish the school, including you who also think this is an unjust move!

I want you to understand that the world seen from the eyes of the king and the world seen from the perspective of ordinary people are two different worlds!

Not much else to say, if you think about it more, you will understand it naturally! "

"Yes, Father!"

Zhu Biao's eyes turned red again, but he held back.

Old Zhu gave another order:
"But I want you to look at the market, not to let you indulge in it, after all, you are the prince of the empire, different from others!

The world of Ming Dynasty is not peaceful!
In this marketplace, I don't know how many people actually turn their hearts to the north.
This wins the hearts of the people, it can only be a matter of time, and it takes time to change it little by little!
And if these people know your identity, it will be dangerous! "

After speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang stood up, turned around and went downstairs.

Zhu Biao followed Zhu Yuanzhang and finally heard the story of the storyteller clearly.

The protagonist in the story is the current Emperor Hongwu...

"I also want to try if rumors and legends can be used to manipulate people's hearts..."

The matter of communication studies has never been erased from the emperor's mind.

Zhu Biao nodded silently and followed carefully.

"Your Zhang family brother should have come out of the Confucian Mansion by now, so it's a good time to find him now!"

As the emperor said, he went out, and a donkey cart passed by the door of the restaurant.

Zhang Yi lifted the curtain, just in time to meet Lao Zhu face to face.

"Huang...uncle...uncle..."

The moment he saw Zhu Yuanzhang, he was taken aback for a moment, and then he shouted loudly with a voice that the whole street looked at.

Lao Zhu was instantly noticed, and he felt a little uncomfortable.

But there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, looking very happy.

Seeing his appearance, Zhang Yi felt joy from the bottom of his heart.

Since he became the emperor, he has seen less and less of this kind of sincere emotion!

Especially when the kid's donkey cart hadn't stopped, he just jumped out of the cart.

Zhu Yuanzhang's smile immediately subsided, and he was furious:
"How can you do such a dangerous thing, you son of a bitch?

If you have something, how can I explain it to your father? "

Zhang Yi landed on the ground, facing Lao Zhu's scolding, he just laughed.

He will not be angry because of Zhu Yuanzhang's scolding, he can hear the concern contained in this voice as a human being for two generations.

"Uncle came back to Yingtian, so why don't you say anything to me, so that I can treat you well!"

Zhu Yuanzhang had a cold face, sarcastically:

"Don't dare to bother you Daoist Zhang, I haven't responded to Tianfu yet, I just listen to your name, you've been doing well recently!

Because of your words and this kid's letter from home, I have to go north...

Unlike you, live a carefree life! "

Zhang Yi could not be fooled by Zhu Yuanzhang, he replied:

"Uncle Huang, if you envy me, you can come to my Taoist temple, and I will personally help you practice...

You went to the north, didn't you run around for Brother Huang's future?

Can this depend on me too? "

Old Zhu knew that bickering with this guy would definitely bring him no benefit.

At this time Zhu Biao came out to smooth things over:
"As soon as Dad came back, he was going to find you...

Who knew that as soon as I went out, I ran into you! "

Zhang Yi looked up:
"This is also your industry...?"

"That's right, if you encounter difficulties temporarily in the future, you can come here to withdraw some money!
Let's go, I haven't been to a Taoist temple for a long time! "

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to chat with Zhang Yiduo on the street, so he pulled him into the carriage.

Not long after, a group of people came to the gate of Qingxin Temple, and Lao Zhu got off the car.

He looked at the surrounding courtyard walls, old and new traces were intertwined, making the Taoist temple even more shabby.

"Xiao Deng, what's the matter with this courtyard wall?"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked knowingly, Deng Zhongxiu saw Lao Zhu asked, and quickly answered:
"Master Huang, the Taoist temple was attacked by thieves a while ago, Xiaodao asked someone to spend money to raise the courtyard wall as instructed by his younger brother!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said:

"Qingxinguan is located in a remote place, and the law and order here is really not very good, Zhang Yi, you and Xiao Deng should be careful!

Especially the two of you, if you reveal your wealth, it is very likely that thieves will miss you!

If it's just a thief, it's okay, but if you meet a bandit, it's a bit difficult to deal with! "

Zhang Yi nodded, it was rare for him not to talk back on this matter.

In ancient times, things like killing people and stealing goods really existed.

Especially now, the world is uncertain,

Although Jiangnan has been restored to peace for many years under the management of Zhu Yuanzhang.

But among the people, the hearts of the people are unstable.

Not to mention the north, there is still a group of people in the south who have the former dynasty in mind.

The officials in the court are like this, and so are the people below.

There are many reasons for this. In addition to the inertia of people's thinking, Lao Zhu's offense against the landlord class in the south of the Yangtze River also has something to do with it.

Although these people do not hold weapons, they hold public opinion.

This thing is subtle, and the impact is amazing!

All in all, Zhang Yi would not be surprised if there were a large number of rebels hiding among the people at this time.

During the Hongwu Dynasty, civil uprisings and rebellions also emerged in endlessly.

This situation can only gradually disappear as time goes by...

"The boy is also thinking about this problem, so he asked people to raise the courtyard wall, and asked Senior Brother Deng to learn fist and foot weapons, so as to have an extra layer of protection...

There are also some objects in the future, it is best not to put them in the Taoist temple, these things are easy to miss! "

"Learn martial arts?"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled: "If you don't learn the thunder method of Tianshifu, what kind of martial arts are you going to learn?"

Knowing that Lao Zhu was joking with him, Zhang Yi couldn't help rolling his eyes.

Lei Fa, if only he knew Lei Fa.

But the problem isn't it?

No, if it is "Lei Fa", he thinks he can do it, but that thing is too dangerous, and the Taoist temple will be blown up if he is not careful.

"If you are like this, you might as well go to Xinlonghu Mountain and find a few more brothers and sisters to go down the mountain. The Taoist temple will become more popular, and naturally there will be no thieves thinking about it!"

"Forget it, except for Senior Brother Deng, there are not many people on the mountain who have a good impression of me, I would rather be more comfortable!"

Zhang Yi and Lao Zhu walked into the backyard while talking.

He just remembered one thing:

"By the way, Uncle Huang, last time I saw a servant from your family make a move in the brothel, that skill is amazing!

If you have a good martial arts master, I would like to pay him to teach Brother Deng, but I only hate that I am too young to practice martial arts..."

"No matter how good your martial arts are, you can only fight against ten people. Even if Chang Yuchun, the number one warrior of the Ming Dynasty, comes here, you can't fight against a hundred people...

If you want to learn, I will find someone for you later, but don't put your mind on it, just pay more attention! "

After fighting on the battlefield for many years, Lao Zhu despises personal force.

He himself became a monk halfway through, and his martial arts were average, but didn't he take Chang Yuchun, Xu Da, and Zhu Liangzu under his command?
The art of war is the kung fu of thousands of enemies.

This is the emperor's habitual thinking. Zhang Yi vaguely felt that Uncle Huang exuded a pride that did not belong to a businessman.

Without thinking too much, he nodded in agreement.

They didn't get too entangled in this issue, Zhang Yi asked:
"Your old man went to Jining?"

"Well, I plan to go to Kaifeng recently...

I heard from some sources that His Majesty intends to set Kaifeng as the capital..."

When Zhu Yuanzhang said this, Zhu Biao was taken aback.

The last time Zhang Yi talked about moving the capital, Mingming Zhu Yuanzhang also accepted it, so the emperor mentioned Bianliang (Kaifeng) again, is this fooling the younger brother of the Zhang family or he really wants to go.

"So the emperor hasn't been there yet?"

Zhang Yi counted the days and found that May had already passed by this time. According to the original track of history, Zhu Yuanzhang should have been to Kaifeng once.

This historical butterfly effect, after all, still affects the progress of many things.

Zhang Yi was thoughtful, but he didn't find it strange.

In the early days of Zhu Yuanzhang's administration, he really didn't think much about moving the capital to the north.

He is dissatisfied with the current Yingtian, but he has no plans to move the capital out of the Jianghuai area. Song Capital is the best place in Lao Zhu's mind.

Because of this, Lao Zhu later designated Kaifeng as Beijing and Ying Tian as Nanjing.

It was only after he walked through it once and felt the "depression of the people's livelihood" and the "difficulty of water and land transportation" that he was unwilling to give up this idea.

As for thinking about Chang'an, it will be decades later.

"Uncle, there is no need to waste too much time in Kaifeng, the emperor will not be there...

Be it Chang'an or Kaifeng, they are no longer the cities they were a hundred years ago.

The north is under the rule of foreign races, and people's livelihood is in decline. Back then, the Mongols did too many immoral things, not to mention ruining the northern economy.

It's just that the national revolution has changed. Those places that were suitable to be the capital in those days are now dying!

Don't follow the emperor around, it must be his business if he wants to go to those places, but today is not counted,
Sooner or later he will change his mind! "

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was not happy.

As Zhang Yi said, he has actually been thinking about Dingdu.

For him, Nanjing City was always just a stopgap measure.

He wants to move the capital to the north, and Kaifeng is his preferred choice, but it's fine if he doesn't choose Kaifeng.

Why do you want to bring Chang'an?
Chang'an was the capital of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and it was also an unavoidable memory for the Han family to recall the glorious past.

Regardless of political significance and practical considerations.

Kaifeng and Chang'an also have a feeling in Lao Zhu's heart.

Kaifeng was the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, and setting the capital there represented Zhu Yuanzhang's return to the state before the Mongols destroyed the Han court.

And Chang'an recalls the glory of the Han family in the past.

"What does it mean to be out of breath?"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked coldly, but Zhang Yixiang didn't even want to answer:

"The so-called Qi number, we don't talk about mysterious and mysterious luck.

Qi number is the weather, rainfall, temperature and other factors, so it is not too much to say? "

Zhu Biao and his son were stunned for a moment. If Zhang Yi said something about the gods, the emperor would probably be dubious.

But what Zhang Yi said seemed interesting.

"Please elaborate..."

"First of all, let's assume that if we are His Majesty the Emperor, if he wants to choose a place as the capital, what are the conditions first?"

Zhu Yuanzhang lowered his head and thought for a while, then said:
"First of all, the location of the capital must be dangerous and safe enough...

In fact, the economy can't be too bad, there must be a farming foundation near the capital, and at the same time, water transportation must be developed!
Otherwise..."

Before Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, Zhang Yi laughed to himself.

Zhu Yuanzhang also realized that first of all, Chang'an has no conditions for water transportation.

But he is not convinced, even if there is no such thing, the Tang Dynasty did not need these things in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, and it can also become the most powerful capital in the world.

Zhang Yi understood Lao Zhu's doubts and said:

"I'll tell my uncle why, because the north in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty is completely different from our current north!
Uncle has gone all over the world, if you are asked to compare the differences between the north and the south, what is your biggest feeling? "

"North, cold..."

"That's right, why the world's granary is now in the south, while the production in the north is sluggish, apart from the destruction of the Mongols, the big reason is related to the climate!
The climate in the south is warm, so both planting and breeding are much better than those in the north. Our Daming's economic center of gravity falls in the south, which is actually due to luck!
But what is Qi number?

In my opinion, it is a series of climatic factors such as temperature and rainfall that affect environmental changes!
Just like Chang'an, Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty was not a cold place. At that time, the climate was muggy and there was a lot of rain.

For example, Bai Juyi's verses: The rustic atmosphere of the full steaming summer, the scorching sun on the back, clearly shows that Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty is different from the north we see now.

If it was cold at that time, Concubine Yang would still need to go to Huaqing Pool to escape the heat?
Does the emperor still need to award ice to his courtiers every year?
The common people slept on mats, and the emperor slept on ivory mats. All kinds of historical records in historical books indicate that Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty was a hot place.

Because of the heat and rain,

So near Chang'an, the water and grass are fertile and the farming is well developed!
In fact, not only the vicinity of Chang'an, but also the north further up, is not what it is today!
There is temperature and there is rainfall.

Chang'an at that time is now Jiangnan!
So Chang'an City at that time could become the capital of my flourishing Tang Dynasty!
But all of this, probably since the Anshi Rebellion, has become different!

"New Book of Tang" records that the fields on the border were abandoned and the crops were frozen to death.

The Yellow River Basin is no longer suitable for rice cultivation!

It was also from this that the Tang Dynasty turned from prosperity to decline, and its national power declined!
Therefore, the decline of Tang Dynasty was due to the man-made disaster of Anlu Mountain, but it was essentially due to the change of the number of days.
The fate of the country is exhausted!In this situation, even if Taizong was reborn, he would be powerless to recover.

And now, hundreds of years have passed since the death of Tang Dynasty!
How could Daming survive the days that even the prosperous Tang Dynasty could not bear?
Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty was the capital of all kingdoms, but if Chang'an is the capital today, it will be a pit of fire!
In that kind of bitter cold place with inconvenient transportation, where would you ask the emperor to concoct food to serve those people who are starving for food?

So I advise Uncle, you don't follow the emperor to meddle in blindly, he just suffered from the lack of travel experience, as long as he really goes to the place to have a look, I guarantee that he will never make fun of the national luck!

If you want to enjoy the convenience of the policy in the north, it is the best way to settle down in Shandong, or other cities along the canal...

My advice to you, don't want to go too far from home, go to Jining...

If you want to be in place in one step, you might as well wait for most of them to win, and then take the first chance!

I can assure you that unless the emperor doesn't want to move the capital, if he really wants to move the capital, most of the time he can't avoid it! "

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't think about the problem of Dadu for the time being, he still couldn't get out of the number of days Zhang Yi said.

"So, the so-called national destiny is nothing more than climate change?"
