Great Ming: I, Zhu Di, Declare My Intentions to Seize the Throne from the Start!

"Youtiao steamed stuffed buns and tofu curd..."

…

The unique rhythmic tone flows into the room as sunlight passes through the bright glass windows. ☜

Hu Weiyong's pale face couldn't help but frown slightly.

The eyes with two big dark circles slowly opened, and the irritation of being disturbed from a good dream flashed away.

Last night, he had trouble sleeping.

As the fourth watch approached, I fell asleep.

Yan Fan arrived at night and couldn't fall asleep even after just catching a glimpse of the leopard.

Yanhuang Tower, large iron bridge, biogas lamps, fifty merchant ships docked side by side, a wide dock...

Was all this last night a glimpse of something?

Or is there something even more shocking about Yan Fan?

…

Hu Weiyong lifted up the thin quilt and felt sticky all over. He shook his head and said to himself: "This place is too hot."

This Yan Fan can also find the bad points.

For example, the weather is too hot.

Hu Weiyong came to the window and saw as far as he could see, early in the morning, the streets were already full of people.

There are people riding bicycles with their children, riding horse-drawn carriages, and walking on foot.

Under the window on the third floor where he was, a small stall run by a woman was bustling.

People passing by, amidst the shouts of women, came over and queued up to buy.

There was also a young man riding in a carriage who was very well-dressed and seemed to be either rich or noble. Amidst the shouts of the woman, he ordered the driver to stop the carriage, opened the door, stood at the back of the queue with a pair of polished leather shoes, and followed the queue.

Queue your free time, open the book in your hand and read.

Before and after, the coolie, whose status was obviously very humble, judging from his dress, seemed to know the young man, and greeted him with a smile. This man, who was either rich or noble, would also look away from the book, smile and whisper in response.

"An elite queues up with a group of humble coolies. In Yanfan, what's the point of elites living like this?"

Hu Weiyong laughed mockingly and shook his head.

Click!

Push open the window.

The aroma of freshly fried fried dough sticks hits your face instantly along with the sea breeze blowing from the bay.

"Brother Zhang, as usual, add chopped green onion to your tofu puffs!"

"Give me a moment, thank you."

"Dad, our husband said that during competitive matches, we should all take turns watching the matches according to our classes."

…

Noisy, but prosperous sounds rushed into my ears the moment the window was opened.

Hu Weiyong couldn't help but frown slightly.

He didn't like Yan Fan's prosperous voice.

Dong dong dong...

There was a knock on the door.

Hu Weiyong turned around and opened the door, and Lu Ben stood outside the door with a dark face.

A pair of eyes, but there are no dark circles like Hu Weiyong's.

Lu Ben listened to the noise coming from outside, looked beyond Hu Weiyong, saw the open window, and understood that Hu Weiyong, like him, should have been observing the outside before that.

Dong dong dong...

At this moment, there was a knock on the living room door.

Jiang Jinzhong's voice came in: "Are you two adults awake?"

Hu Weiyong and Lu Ben's expressions instantly recovered.

Hu Weiyong pushed Lu Ben's wheelchair to the door of the living room, opened the door, and looked at Jiang Jinzhong with a smile on his face.

This smile is a fake smile.

Makes people feel alienated.

Jiang Jinzhong cupped his fists and said, "Two adults, are you resting well?"

As he spoke, Jiang Jinzhong glanced at Hu Weiyong out of the corner of his eye and smiled secretly: What a big dark circle under his eyes. He must have been tossing and turning when he saw the prince's capital city of Yanjing last night, right?

Hu Weiyong smiled hypocritically, clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty entertained you very well, and we had a good rest. What is this, Mr. Jiang?"

Jiang Jinzhong patted his forehead and said, "Ye Bu and other ministers are busy today. I am the only one in the Finance Department who is relatively free at the moment. Ye Bu asked me to have breakfast with all my colleagues from the Ming Dynasty. Later, the palace should be here There’s news coming to arrange today’s itinerary…”

Hu Weiyong looked at Jiang Jinzhong, who was talking eloquently in front of him.

In the past, such a small person could not even enter his home.

Now, even this kind of mediocre fool has become the head of Zhu Silang Yan Fan!

The position of minister of Yan Fan is equivalent to the cabinet minister of Ming Dynasty!

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang, let's clean up a little bit..."

…

at the same time.

Zhu Di and Xu Miaoyun were also in the palace, accompanying Zhu Yuanzhang, Xu Da and others to have breakfast.

Except for everyone in the Zhu family, they lived in the palace.

Song Lian, Li Shanchang, Liu Bowen and others were also invited to live in the palace.

Everyone ate without talking or sleeping.

When Zhu Di saw Zhu Yuanzhang put down his bowl and chopsticks, he asked in a low voice: "Father, have you finished eating? Is it to your liking?"

"It's ready." Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and nodded, asking: "Where are you going to take us to visit today?"

When everyone heard the sound, they put down their bowls and chopsticks and looked at Zhu Di.

Zhu Di asked with a smile: "Wherever the father wants to go, the child will accompany the father. The child thinks so. In Luzon, it is cooler and cooler in the morning. These days, we act together in the morning, and everyone is free in the afternoon." Action, anyone can see whatever they want.”

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded. The fourth child must have accumulated a lot of things after being away for so long.

Moreover, preparations must be made for the founding of the nation.

It’s true that I can’t stay with them all the time.

"This is a good arrangement." As he spoke, Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Xiongying and Cailu, who were chatting quietly, and smiled, "Let's go to your biogas plant this morning. Xiongying and Cailu, If they want to move your lighting system back to Jinling, you, the fourth uncle and master, must support them."

Hearing this, everyone laughed heartily.

…

After a while.

Everyone came out of the palace, adults, two or three or three or four in the same carriage.

The children got on their bicycles one after another.

"Brother, how are you doing in your studies? How about I take care of Senior Sister Cailu?" Qihua rode her car and turned to look at Xiongying and Cailu behind her.

Xiongying smiled and glared, "Little sister, how about we compete?"

"Okay!" Qihua waved her hand, "Go ahead!"

A group of children stood and pedaled on the car, rushing out like a gust of wind.

Leaving behind a piece of youthful laughter like silver bells.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Qihua, Xiongying, and Cailu and couldn't help but smile. When the carriage started, he turned his eyes to Zhu Di and cursed with a smile: "Qihua has been spoiled by you, be careful not to get married in the future."

Zhu Di smiled and touched the tip of his nose, "If you can't get married, you will keep raising the child."

snort!

Zhu Yuanzhang chuckled, turned his head, and watched Qihua chatting and laughing with the people along the way.

His eldest granddaughter is so outstanding, how could she not get married?

…

Concierge hotel.

When Zhu Yuanzhang's royal motorcade passed by, Hu Weiyong and others were already waiting in the carriage prepared by the Concierge Hotel. They quickly merged into the motorcade and drove towards the lower reaches of the bay and the outskirts of Yanjing's capital city.

Half an hour later.

Lu Ben frowned slightly, raised his hand to fan in front of his nose, and complained: "I really don't know what your Majesty thinks. What's so interesting about a biogas plant? The smell is too unpleasant. It is said that they are all employees." The feces and urine..."

Hu Weiyong looked at Lu Ben.

Not quite there yet.

It doesn't smell like anything, Lu Ben is just in a bad mood.

To be honest, Lu Ben was not the only one who was in a bad mood.

I'm afraid that during this trip, all those who hated Zhu Silang felt bad when they looked at the rows of neat red brick houses, biogas lamps, and wide cement-hardened permanent roads.

Although he was in a bad mood, he would not behave like Lu Ben.

The main purpose of this trip is to know yourself and the enemy!

Only by understanding Zhu Silang better can we find a way to defeat Zhu Silang.

Therefore, he did not want to engage in this boring topic.

Said: "During breakfast, I listened to Lan Yu, Fang Xiaoru and Jiang Jinzhong talk about the process of Zhu Silang's founding of the country."

Lu Ben's eyebrows were slightly raised, attracted by Hu Weiyong's topic.

"Jiang Jinzhong introduced that after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Zhu Silang would hold a national competition at the sports hall in Yanjing..."

He planned to take time out in the afternoon to visit this so-called sports hall.

"After the competitive match, Zhu Silang's navy and army will hold a retirement ceremony..."

"Retire!" Lu Ben asked in surprise, "Hu Xiang, how do you retire?"

"I didn't hear it very clearly, but I vaguely heard that those who are over thirty years old and have not yet held the lowest official position, and those with the best academic performance in the military, have to retire from active service, rehabilitate and go to other places, or go to work as teachers in the countryside. Or go to rural areas in Luzon where there are many locals and rural communities are not well developed, and serve as consultants or leaders."

new

Lu Ben frowned, "Hu Xiang, what do you think Zhu Silang wants to do with this move? He is the elite of Yan Fan's navy and army, which is obvious to all the world. He is willing to put such elites back to their hometowns? Moreover, retirement is not to select those who cannot learn. Okay, but the chosen one?"

It seems that Zhu Silang's move weakened the Yan vassal army.

He should be happy.

I am indeed a little happy.

But it's more the uneasiness caused by confusion.

"Hu Xiang, we have played against Zhu Silang a lot, and we always lose more than we win. I always feel that Zhu Silang's self-destruction of the Great Wall is not as simple as it seems on the surface. What do you think Zhu Silang wants? What to do?"

Hu Weiyong was silent...

He couldn't figure it out either.

…

Inside Zhu Yuanzhang's carriage.

At this moment, Zhu Di was also discussing this matter with Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang heard this and looked at Zhu Di in surprise, "Fourth, can you tell us the purpose of doing this?"

The elite seedlings that were finally cultivated were simply disarmed and returned to their fields.

It will cost a lot to re-cultivate.

This is not worth the loss!

Moreover, how to ensure the combat effectiveness of the army?

"Father, have you seen the navy and army officers under the boy's command?"

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and waited for Zhu Di to continue.

Zhu Di replied: "With the end of the war into Japan, in the next few years, the children will not be able to expand externally. They can only be patient and digest the Japanese country first. Therefore, there is no need to worry about the decline in the combat effectiveness of the army during this period."

He does not expand externally.

Just to protect myself.

The navy's powerful ships and cannons.

Cooperate with a group of experienced veterans and lead a group of well-trained recruits to defend everything you have without any problems.

"Originally, before Wang Zhongye presented land to the people on behalf of the Japanese rebel group, although we did prepare to retire some soldiers, at that time, in order to ensure combat effectiveness, I did not prepare for large-scale retirement. But now, there is no need for external expansion, which needs to be digested The Japanese country, after accumulating internal strength, retires on a large scale, which can help the children to build Yanfan to a higher level and make up for the hidden dangers and shortcomings left by the rapid development in the past."

In the past few years, Yan Fan has developed rapidly.

It also leaves many hidden dangers and shortcomings.

For example, the issue of rural elementary education.

For example, Luzon has the problem of slow development due to the majority of local residents living in villages.

"Our Yanfan military camp is actually a school. When my father went to see it later, he understood that we not only teach the soldiers fighting skills, but also teach them literacy and master various skills. When they return to the countryside, they can become very good people. Good elementary teachers, they have learned the values ​​​​of equality of personality for everyone..."

Influence children with the value of personal equality.

Only then can he help Yan Fan complete the task and get rid of the outdated trend of nobility and lowliness in the hearts of the people.

In the current Yan Fan, it seems that everyone is equal, and there is no old tradition of superiority and inferiority.

actually not.

The current so-called equality is first of all because he insists that the officials below should not engage in this kind of behavior and just follow the example. After his death, it is very easy for one person to end up in politics.

1. Through two concepts and two propositions, a relatively balanced distribution of interests has been achieved, mutual restraint has been achieved, and equality between people has been achieved.

But this restriction is also unstable.

If you want to abolish it, you can do it with some tricks.

Therefore, the only way is to completely eradicate the outdated trend of nobility and lowliness in the hearts of the people. When the people do not agree, businessmen and officials will be superior to them.

When the people dared to make use of local village communities and the employee-employed shareholding system for a small profit, they united to fight.

At that time, everyone is equal.

And at that time, when someone dares to abolish the rural village communes and employ the shareholding system, there will be countless people with angry eyes, holding farm tools and factory hammers, standing on the opposite side of those with ulterior motives!

When the people have this courage, even his descendants, no matter how reluctant they are, will not dare to stand against the people!

Looking back now, the reason why people are not afraid of officials is because they know that he supports them and he will make decisions for them.

This lack of fear of officials rests on him.

This is strongman politics.

The people placed everything on him, the strong man prince.

Deep down, in essence, it is not yet fully awakened.

I still think that officials are superior to others.

When he dies, he will still be afraid of the officials.

"In our Yan Fan, although the administration is clear and the officials are hard-working, Ha'er knows very well that this is all a kind of enterprising spirit in the early stage of starting a business, as well as the result of the mutual constraints of the two current ideas. Once the business is started, once the strongman Ha'er dies, In the future, if the old stereotypes brought by the people from the Central Plains and passed on to their children through family education do not change, in the future, the government will definitely be corrupted. Once the government is corrupted, the two ideas and two ideas will inevitably be shaken."

By then, Yan Fan's official administration will inevitably become that of the Ming Dynasty.

There is no official in the world who is not corrupt.

"The current situation in Yan Fan is that under restrictions, officials initially do not dare to be corrupt, nor do they dare to yell at others and act aloof."

"Businessmen are confident because of the employment-share system. Moreover, this group has read a lot and already understands the benefits of the rules of Haier Yanfan to them (gaining economic benefits, safety, and enjoying the sincere respect of workers for them). Respect), as if Shen Zhi represents this group of people, they uphold two concepts and ideas more than ordinary people."

"But the common people group is not enough. Those old and outdated trends are all suppressed under the water by the prosperity."

…

"After several years of military education, the soldiers of Yan Fan can maintain personal equality with their generals and children. After they retire and go to the people, they will bring this true personality equality to the people."

"Military education is more efficient. In the next few years of peacetime, children are prepared to regard the military as a university and a source of equality of personality education!"

Every two or three years.

Just re-retire a group of soldiers and recruit a group of soldiers, so that the retired soldiers can continue to bring equality of personality into the people.

"In the future, I hope that the common people under the rule of Yan Fan will completely eradicate the outdated thinking that all people are inferior and the only way to achieve high status is to be a high official."

"Only when this is achieved can Yan Fan's current set of things be truly rock solid."

…

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Di, sometimes frowning, sometimes full of optimism, waving his arms to talk, and gradually fell into deep thought.

He shook his head with a wry smile.

Ming Dynasty simply cannot do this.

"Many of us in the Central Plains would probably applaud if they heard that you were disbanding and decommissioning such a powerful army on a large scale..."

But these people are short-sighted.

How could he understand the far-reaching purpose of Laosi's move?

When Lao Si completed the transformation of the people's outdated habits.

When Yan Fan was as solid as a rock.

These idiots will probably understand the purpose of what Lao Si is doing now after being shocked.

"Fourth brother, in the future Yan Fan, will everyone be like our Qi Hua and Yong Ming, cheerful, confident, lively, tolerant, not arrogant due to their own status, and able to communicate with anyone with an equal and normal attitude? "

Zhu Di nodded with a smile, "My child hopes that the final result will be like this."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Di, stunned.

At first, he hesitated a lot, but finally insisted on letting Biao'er be the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty. Was he wrong?

He didn't tell anyone about this.

Xiuying may have guessed something.

In fact, during the time when Lao Si returned to the north to conquer the Yuan Dynasty.

When he looked at the Fujian built by Lao Si, he once had the idea in his heart to persuade Biao'er to give up the talent to Lao Si.

But in the end, I was hesitating.

Realizing that the fourth child had no idea of ​​inheriting the Ming Dynasty, he put an end to this idea.

It was finally decided to let Biao'er be the transitional king between the old and new Ming Dynasty.

It is hoped that heroes will complete the revolution of Ming Dynasty and create a new Ming Dynasty.

Squeak!

The carriage stopped and Zhu Yuanzhang swayed slightly.

Zhu Di's voice sounded, "Father, we are here."

Zhu Yuanzhang came back to his senses, looked along the window, and was stunned for a moment.

…

Happy New Year to all my book friends.
