I'm a big dick

Chapter 576 Zhu Yujian's Audience

When Zhu Yujian saw the emperor, he was a little surprised.Not in the palace, but under the shade of a tree, not dealing with official business, but being intimate with the two little princesses.

"Exemption, flat body." The emperor looked up, smiled and said, "Give me a seat."

"Thank you Long Live Long En." Zhu Yujian bowed respectfully before sitting down on Xiudun respectfully.

The emperor touched the faces of the two little girls before he asked the maid to take his daughter away.

Despite his casual gestures, there are some things that are not easy to say in front of his daughter.

The girls didn't go far, they went to play in the pool not far away.There are koi raised by the emperor in groups, and they swim very beautifully.

Hearing the clear and crisp laughter, the emperor's face was also peaceful, with a relaxed and joyful mood, and he said to Zhu Yujian, "You are very good. You have set an example for Zongfu's children, and I will not treat you badly."

Zhu Yujian hurriedly cupped his hands and played: "Long live the prize, I dare not be a humble minister."

The emperor waved his hand and said, "There's no need to be modest, what I'm telling is the truth."

After a pause, the emperor said with emotion: "From Taizu to now, there are hundreds of thousands of suzerains and vassals. If they sit on the mountain and eat nothing, the country will be ruined sooner or later. You know, this is not raising hundreds of thousands of people who only want food and clothing. , but want the treatment of rich food and clothing."

Zhu Yujian pursed the corners of his mouth and lowered his head slightly, presumably the emperor couldn't see it either.Although it is true, it also includes that he is not.

Of course, he persuaded his father to give up the name of vassal king, which also followed the emperor's mind.As for the emperor's words of not being ill-treated, he believed it, believed it very much.

The emperor lowered his eyes, pondered for a while, looked up at Zhu Yujian, and asked slowly: "What are your plans, let's talk about it first. What I want to give you may not be what you think."

Of course Zhu Yujian had his own ideas, and he had plans before coming here. When he heard the emperor's question, he hurriedly bowed his hands and said, "I have been ordered by Long Live to inspect outside, supervise and punish local lawless officials, and I have some experience."

The emperor nodded slightly, and said: "The Inspectorate, I can go to it. Well, I will think about it again and discuss it with all the officials."

Changing officials with nobles is also a way to rectify suzerain vassals.It's a pity that there are not many suzerains and vassals who are willing to study government affairs and have the ability to serve as officials for the people or the country, and it is not as easy as getting something for nothing.

Moreover, being an official is risky. If he makes a mistake and is dismissed, Lian Juelu and his official position will be lost as well.

Of course, there are other courses in Zongxue to make a living, but you may be able to get rich by working hard on your own, but wouldn’t it be better to get a salary by doing nothing?

Therefore, Zongxue also has children of vassals who come to study, but basically they are of low grade, with a large family and difficulties in supporting them.

Ease and enjoyment are indeed immersive and hard to extricate yourself from.The emperor knew better about human nature, didn't he too?If you don't become an emperor and become a carpenter, you are an idiot.

But the emperor considered himself a good leader, and made great contributions to the revitalization of the Ming Empire, even though many people secretly called him a "faint emperor".

For Zhu Yujian, the emperor intends to reuse it, after all, this is a rare benchmark of suzerain vassal.Moreover, in terms of Zhu Yujian's character, he also admired it quite a lot.

Originally, the emperor wanted to move the vassals to new overseas lands, and Zhu Yujian was the first one.But listening to Zhu Yujian's intentions and the progress of overseas land expansion, the emperor still delayed the plan.

Overseas new lands, or overseas territories, the emperor believes that both definitions are acceptable.Although the meanings are not exactly the same, there is the possibility of transformation.

"You have also reached the age of marriage, and Tang Shizi is not in good health." The emperor did not immediately decide on Zhu Yujian's errand, but cared about his personal problems, "If there is a woman who thinks it is suitable, I will make the decision for you."

Marriage of feudal kings, especially regular wives, is not something that can be decided casually. Whether or not the Ministry of Rites can approve it is a hurdle.A concubine like this has no status, and the court naturally doesn't care about it, but the meaning is completely different.

Zhu Yujian couldn't help being stunned for a moment, he didn't expect the emperor to ask this matter, it was really difficult to answer, so he smiled shyly and lowered his head slightly.

The emperor smiled slightly, and continued: "I have already loosened many restrictions on the suzerain vassal, and I don't want to impose more restrictions on marriage."

Of course, the emperor's idea was not only to give Zhu Yujian or the suzerain more freedom.However, the previous system of drafting girls was a waste of money and people, but the emperor wanted to abolish it.

Zhu Yujian didn't know the emperor's thoughts, and he didn't have the consciousness of free love. After thinking about it for a while, he bowed and replied: "I'll wait for my father to go back and ask for my father's consent, and then I will tell you Long Live."

The prince of the Tang Dynasty, that is, the father of Zhu Yujian was indeed in poor health. After being imprisoned by the cruel old King Tang for so many years, it was inevitable that he would be weak and sick.

Zhu Yujian felt that marrying a wife, or even having a child, while his father was still alive was also a comfort to his father.

The emperor talked with Zhu Yujian for a while, and felt that the previous year's experience in foreign affairs offices had really helped Zhu Yujian a lot.In some respects, Zhu Yujian is even more mature than Xinwang Zhu Youjian.

This is also caused by different life experiences. Zhu Yujian and his father have spent so many years in prison, and their minds have obviously been honed to be very strong.

Moreover, character determines success or failure, which is also very important. The emperor also saw the difference between Zhu Yujian and Zhu Youjian.

Zhu Yujian received the emperor's comfort and encouragement, and seeing that he had no more orders, he left.

The emperor completely relaxed, got up and walked to the rocking chair placed not far away, while the rocking chair was leisurely rocking, with the cool breeze blowing, he heard the crisp laughter again.

"My lord." Li Chengcheng sat beside him, peeling grapes and feeding them into the emperor's mouth.

The emperor savored the sweetness in his mouth, but his thoughts were still on the issues dealt with by the suzerain vassal.

Not to mention far away, there are three kings in the capital waiting to settle down.King Xin, King Gui, and King Rui are not going to be released by the emperor.

It really costs too much. When the catastrophe is approaching, the imperial court needs to save money if it wants to support it.

"How much money do you have?" The emperor casually asked his steward, and opened his mouth to eat another grape.

Li Chengcheng reported everything without thinking.

The emperor was silent for a while, and then shook his head lightly after a long while, not knowing what plan he was denying.

"My lord." Wang Tiqian came over carefully and reported, "Sun Yuanhua is here to see you."

The emperor nodded, got up and walked back to the hall.For courtiers like Sun Yuanhua, it is still necessary to be more formal, which is also a kind of value for Sun Yuanhua.

Although he was preparing to deal with the catastrophe at the peak of the Little Ice Age, the emperor still invested a lot in the Academy of Sciences.The scientific and technological progress of the Ming Empire is also a manifestation of national strength.

For example, the large-scale project of building slab rails has been planned, and is being inspected and surveyed, and is ready to be implemented.

Although the development of the steam engine made the emperor feel slow, the increase in transport capacity was still an effective means of dealing with catastrophes.
