Chapter 135: Politics? On the country!

Now that he has made up his mind, Zhu Changluo's attitude naturally straightened up immediately, and he also knows that above the court, there are very few ministers like Zhang Wei who can serve the country and the people, and help the world. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Especially Zhang Wei used to be the first assistant, holding most of the power of the mound, and his eyes and mind are very comparable, and being able to see the world in his eyes can be described as a cherished opportunity.

Therefore, Zhu Changluo's posture is very correct, and this is also the first time he has performed a disciple salute to others!

"The old man dares to disobey!"

Zhang Wei is not polite, as a person who reads, which one does not have the ambition of showing his ambition and helping the world, but it is a pity that Zhang Wei was born at the wrong time, was suspicious of the king, and was framed by the villain......

However, what made Zhu Changluo a little strange was that Zhang Wei did not rush to talk about the problems in the court, but began to tell the story slowly.

"Your Royal Highness, when the old man was young, he also traveled around to study, when he was in the capital, he heard an interesting story, said that when Emperor Taizu, there was a scholar who went to the capital to catch the exam, living in the inn, and heard the sound of the flute next door at night, the sound was crisp and loud, extremely beautiful, and the bamboo and stone map was made under the rise, and the person who gave the flute the next day, this was a good story.

But who would have thought that the person who was blowing the flute was a wealthy merchant living in the capital, and after getting the scholar's picture scroll, he came to the door with a heavy gift and asked the scholar to bring him a couplet, but the scholar was furious, drove the rich merchant out of the door, and asked for the painting back, tearing it up! ”

Zhu Changluo frowned slightly, but he was a little confused about the meaning of Zhang Wei's words, and only after a while did he ask with some uncertainty.

"What Yuanfu is talking about is that Wang Fu Wang Mengduan, the middle scholar of Yongle Chu?"

In his previous life, Zhu Changluo had happened to see a record about this person, Wang Mengduan's official position was not high, but he was very famous for his Danqing wonderful pen, especially good at painting bamboo and stone, it is no exaggeration to say that a painting is worth a thousand gold, and even Mu Sheng, the prince of Qianguo at that time, once put down his body and personally came to the door to ask for painting......

"Yes, how would His Highness know?"

This makes Zhang Wei a little strange, if it is said that he is born smart to be able to discern the situation, then where does this matter come from? You must know that it has been nearly a hundred years since then, and this incident was also learned by chance.

"This ......"

Zhu Changluo was speechless for a while, he couldn't say that he had read it in the classics of later generations......

"There used to be a painting of Wang Mengduan in the Queen's Palace, and I was fortunate enough to see it once, so I heard the palace people mention this matter by chance! But what does this matter have to do with today's court? ”

Fortunately, Zhu Changluo was in a hurry and pushed this matter to Queen Wang, Zhang Wei did not continue to ask, Wang Mengduan was a scholar at the beginning, and it was normal to say that there were his paintings in the palace.

Hearing that the former continued to ask, Zhang Wei also withdrew his mind from this little episode and continued.

"Your Highness, don't worry, listen to the old man! Wang Mengduan's matter is the Yongle period, the time is inevitably a little far away, the old man to say a close, Emperor Sejong, there is also a scholar, named Zhu Yunming, a hand calligraphy is very outstanding, but whoever asks for words in Zhu Yunming, must first ask "is it to see the spirit?" Yes, "Yes", I wish Yunming Fang to splash ink and greet him with a smile! ”

If Wang Mengduan is not famous enough, then this Zhu Yunming is a famous figure!

The so-called "spirit" is silver in layman's terms!

Zhu Zhishan, one of the four great talents in the south of the Yangtze River! is conceited and talented, but he has not been reused in his life, which can be said to be very famous, but at this moment, Zhu Changluo didn't have the heart to think about why he couldn't be reused, because he had already begun to understand what Zhang Wei meant.

"What does Motosuke mean by the declining morale?"

This morale refers to the atmosphere in the Shilin, not another "worldly style......

"Not bad!"

Zhang Wei stroked his beard and nodded with satisfaction.

"At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Taizu had designated the four people of Shinong and Industry and Commerce, and the merchant was the last, but in recent years, there has been a tendency to jump to the top of the four people, if it is only so, it is not necessarily a bad thing, but the important thing is that the attitude towards merchants in Shilin has changed greatly over the years, which is what the old man is most worried about......

It's just that the relief only lasted for a moment, and Zhang Wei's face reappeared with worry.

"Although the imperial court explicitly forbade officials, clans, and nobles to do business, but now it has been reduced to a dead letter, if most of the industries in the capital are carefully studied, you can see the forces behind it, and Shilin also from the early Ming Dynasty to the disdain and contempt for businessmen, began to gradually improve their attitude, and even many officials although not businessmen, but from merchants, but even boasted that they were born Confucian businessmen, and even colluded with officials and businessmen, winged each other! But they don't know that this is the root of the trouble! ”

Zhang Wei's words made Zhu Changluo blush slightly, without him, because he himself was also the source of the chaos in Zhang Wei's mouth...... The Hang Lung Money in his hands is not such a collusion between officials and businessmen.

However, he soon realized that Zhang Wei did not mean to target him, and after a moment of silence, Zhu Changluo began to refute Zhang Wei's words for the first time.

"Motosuke's words are biased! Since the opening of Longqing, I have exchanged with overseas countries, introduced a large amount of silver, under such a trend, the status of businessmen to improve is also the right thing, not to mention that I have heard people say before, no agriculture is not stable, no business is not rich, I think so! It doesn't seem appropriate to put too heavy shackles on the heads of merchants! can listen to Yuanfu's meaning, but do you think that the scene when Emperor Taizu should be restored? ”

The wording of these words was extremely careful, but Zhu Changluo didn't want to dampen the kindness of the old Shoufu.

But he does think so, since the opening of the route, the Ming Dynasty introduced a large amount of silver, in this context, farmers feel that they are not as good as going to business is a normal thing, Zhu Changluo understands the meaning of Zhang, as an agricultural country, farmers are the foundation of the existence of a country, if farmers do not go to farming, but turn to business, it is undoubtedly a devastating blow, but if there is no commodity circulation, a country is also difficult to develop, which needs to be well grasped.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the people had just experienced war, and naturally needed to recuperate, cultivate well, and recover their vitality, so the suppression and blow to the merchants was quite serious, but the development to this day, the national strength of the Ming Dynasty has been enough to loosen part of the shackles around the necks of the merchants, if it is said to restore the old system of Emperor Taizu, I am afraid it is a little unrealistic!

Facts have proved that any action that goes against the development and change of society will be crushed into powder by the times!

So Zhu Changluo felt that Zhang Wei's words were ...... It's a bit heavy!
