Back to Ming Dynasty as Zhu Biao

Chapter 321 Old Zhu wants to engage in charity
"Go down." Xu Miaowei glanced at Zhu Biao reproachfully: "Come in."

Zhu Biao couldn't enter, so she simply came out and pushed him into the bedroom, closed the door and said, "It's the father's birthday at the end of this month, I asked them to come here because I have something to prepare."

"Preparing for what?" Zhu Biao asked.

"The concubine wants them to see how the rice farming works in the painting, but she was scared away by His Highness." Xu Miaowei snapped her fingers, her face was cold, and she blamed Zhu Biao for not looking at it: "I can't find a commoner to come into the palace to say farm work."

"Gu can draw, you can find Gu. What Gu draws with his feet is better than those of those painters." Zhu Biao stood beside him and said, "You want to embroider an autumn harvest picture."

Hearing what Zhu Biao said, Xu Miaowei looked at Zhu Biao in disbelief, but she had never seen Zhu Biao paint.

"There is a good saying, seeing is believing, hearing is believing, what do you think, Your Highness?" Xu Miaowei handed over the brush.

Zhu Biao tapped ink on her forehead with a brush.

"Your Highness, you are so annoying." Xu Miaowei wiped off the ink with a handkerchief, and stood quietly watching him paint.

Zhu Biao had a well-thought-out plan. He had really practiced painting. After choosing the paper, he picked up the brush and started painting.

Farmers in the rice fields, fishing boats returning with full loads on the river, rice fields full of rice on the ridges, cattle by the lotus pond, children playing...

Zhu Biao painted quietly.When the sky darkened, he stopped writing: "Okay, let's see how it goes?"

After watching the painting, Xu Miaowei showed a trace of hesitation on her face, and then said: "The concubine wants to ask His Highness, what kind of technique His Highness used just now, can make the farmer plow the field, harvest, pick the grain, and the painting is lifelike. , the person in this painting seems to be walking out of the painting."

She looked at the painting carefully, looked at him happily, and pecked his face on tiptoe: "You didn't say it earlier, I must have invited foreign ministers to come..."

"You didn't ask me. Besides, why do you close the door in broad daylight and let Gu go to the Changle Palace to rest." Zhu Biao said.

"You said..."

Zhu Biao said: "Didn't you ask why these characters are so lifelike? This is a three-dimensional technique. When making characters, you have to use light and shadow, composition, and the technique created by yourself."

The two of them are husband and wife, and there is nothing to hide about it. Simply put, there is nothing wrong with it.

Xu Miaowei never thought that this painting technique is so simple, every time she embroiders, she has to draw it several times by herself.

But she doesn't often go to the people's place for farming, so she is not as exquisite as painting landscapes, flowers and birds, and the autumn harvest pictures she draws always lack aura.

Sanbao and Jin'er exchanged a few words, and Jin'er walked in and said, "Your Highness, Your Majesty, please go to Jinshen Hall."

"Go quickly, these days I want to embroider with peace of mind, such a large one, and rushing to work day and night, I can definitely do it." Xu Miaowei happily took it to prepare after finishing speaking.

She asked this from Empress Ma, and she had to be careful when preparing the birthday gift.

When he rushed there, Lao Zhu was having dinner, and the food was still very simple.

"It's just right, come and eat." Lao Zhu greeted Zhu Biao: "Yu Yi, add a pair of bowls and chopsticks."

Just now, Zhu Biao was busy helping Xu Miaowei draw, so he didn't eat. Now when Lao Zhu talked about eating, he also felt hungry.

"A few days ago, we went to the teahouse to listen to books, and we thought about something for a long time." Lao Zhu broke a mouthful of cakes and said, "Didn't you gather young people with disabilities to tell stories, but we thought it would be better if the court Set up a place for orphans, widows and disabled people."

"Accommodating orphans, widows, and disabled people?" Zhu Biao repeated. Isn't this similar to nursing homes and welfare homes in later generations?

Emperor Zhu is doing charity.

Thinking about it, it should be done. When Xu Da sent those thousands of captives back, he also transported several boats of grain from the country of Wa. There was also a lot of silver, and the treasury was indeed more abundant.

At that time, the weaving bureau will start to be made into an assembly line, and the looms will be built, and some things can be sold to neighboring countries, so as to continue to increase income for Daming.

"Then call it Jingshanyuan." Zhu Biao suggested: "According to the situation of each state capital, set up a Jingshanyuan suitable for the local area to take in the elderly, disabled, and orphans. Check and organize the list, manage food and housing. In addition, a separate person must be sent to inspect every month, so as to avoid such incidents as skipping food and cotton clothes.

In this way, some elderly people who cannot live on, or those whose children died early, can be checked by the government, and relevant books can be reissued for registration. "

"Hello Jingshanyuan." Old Zhu nodded.

"My son thought that after the establishment of charitable homes in various places, the weaving bureaus would be responsible for the cotton clothes and quilts, and as for the food, let each prefecture divide it according to the situation.

From now on, at the end of every month, Erchen will ask the academicians of the National Academy of Scholars to form a team of audit personnel. "

Old Zhu said: "Can't the Ministry of Household work?"

"No, there are too many accounts. The Ministry of Accounts audit accounts are easy to bend the law for personal gain, and they can't use their hands and feet. Erchen specially asked Tao Zhangyuan to train a group of academicians known as iron abacus. They will go to the Ming Commercial Bureau and the Road Administration Bureau in the future. , Maritime Affairs Bureau, Weaving Bureau, Salt Bureau, etc. and other inspections. There are also disaster relief food money from various places, called Daming's inspection team.

They are a single body, do not contact with the officials of the court, just check the accounts and verify, if there is a problem.They will directly report to the father. "

"The procuratorate, right? That's similar to the responsibilities of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Yushi." Lao Zhu thought for a while and said to him.

"It's also what the father thinks, but they only talk to the account books in black and white. For example, in Jingshanyuan, the orphans, widows, and disabled people who pass away every year must be checked in time. You can't leave empty places. These things require proficiency in account books and carefulness." people."

"What do you think of Chen Rulan, the daughter of Chen Di's brother?" Old Zhu asked.

"Not much. Although the Chen family has kindness to us, I will naturally remember it, but let's forget about it." Zhu Biao said.

"We think, do you think that the Shen family's account books are done well? Have you found any news about her?" Lao Zhu looked at Zhu Biao: "Then Lu Zhong told us that it is really hard to find a place in the southwest, and they sent The clue to go is broken again."

Zhu Biao nodded.

Old Zhu said: "Ordinary women still want us to look for it like this. If you are not the crown prince of Daming, we would not be able to personally advise you on the marriage. It is very likely that you will be a prince in the land of Daming, and you will be at ease. Or play around the world.

We and your mother have worked very hard to let your body and mind grow together with Daming.We have also paid a lot. We will listen to and act on your opinions, and we will give you a lot of power.

Regarding your question, we and your mother have never had the self-consciousness of father and mother, and when teaching you, we always teach you according to the prince.

But we love you very much, there are some things on weekdays, if Zhu Xun, Zhu Xun and Zhu Di, a few of them made a mistake, we will definitely reprimand and beat you, this is indispensable.

You are different, even when we were most annoyed, we didn't think of hitting you.This can be regarded as pampering you, but it is also a kind of restraint for you.

We are right for you in everything, except for you and Shen Qiancheng's daughter, we didn't make it clear.

But there is one thing that we are very pleased with. You did not seek her out in person, which we appreciate.But let me tell you today, we allow you to do this, understand. "

Zhu Biao nodded.

"Okay, don't worry about talking, our food is cold."

As soon as Yu heard it, he hurried over: "Your Majesty, I will give you a change."

"No need to change it, what a waste, let's make do with it and eat it." Old Zhu said.

Yu nodded and stepped back.

Lao Zhu continued to talk to Zhu Biao about Jingshanyuan.
