Xu family, Xu Qinglian smiled and watched her younger brother hugging her daughter fiercely, her affection was beyond words, her niece was named Ripple, and her appearance of pink makeup and jade was extremely cute, which made Xu Hao very rare.

At this moment, Zhang Lianyi, who was so young, hid in his uncle's arms and giggled, so angry that Xu Ye hugged his father's thigh, raised his head and shouted, but unfortunately he was too short and too small to do the feat of heroically saving beauty.

Mu Ningxue held her stomach and asked with a smile, "Is there something wrong with the eldest sister?" ”

"Hmm!" Xu Qinglian turned her head and said: "The children are not young anymore, I think I should enlighten them, the ripples are too naughty, I really can't control her, I must send her the same, you see that her uncle spoils her a thousand times more." ”

Mu Ningxue smiled knowingly: "In the past, he loved Luzhu and Li Meng the most, Li Meng has also grown up, he can't be pampered like when he was a child, Ripple is his dearest, how can there be anyone who doesn't love it?"

Yesterday, the mother who entered the palace also talked about it, saying that the prince was shouting lonely all day long, and some young princes came to Beijing to accompany the study, or we would also send the children to the East Palace to accompany the study? It just so happened that Fujun was recently appointed as a young master to teach the prince knowledge. ”

Xu Hao hugged the ripples and said unhappily: "Is it good for you to be the descendants of those royal families?" Didn't bring our son badly, and the ripples couldn't go, although it was still small, but if you put a little beauty with a foreign surname in, wouldn't it be a sheep into the tiger's mouth? ”

Mu Ningxue smiled: "Look at what you said, what did you belittle the prince and grandson." ”

Xu Hao said disdainfully: "The royal family is also a human being, what bad things can't be done lawlessly?" I knew that back then. I had already prepared for the children's affairs, I set up a primary school at my aunt's place to teach Confucianism, let Xiangyu take care of it, and in my spare time, I would invite Master Daoyan and other famous people to teach politics and economics, and I would teach some things myself. After the age of ten, he was sent to Liaodong, in addition to learning knowledge in college. It's good to experience the people's livelihood, the daughter should be pampered, the boy must go through the wind and rain, all the men in the family have to go, and the jade can't be made. ”

Xu Qinglian was overjoyed, since she gave birth to Ripples, she gave birth to a son named Zhang Mao (Tongmao), she couldn't help but neglect to raise her daughter, and she was worried about how to educate her children, since her younger brother had an idea, it was naturally the best.

Zhang Lianyi lay on his uncle affectionately, and said coquettishly: "I'm going too." ”

"No problem." Xu Hao had no resistance to her at all. said with a smile: "Ripple to be the school flower in the university, let Ye'er and them be your guards and grooms, you are the noble county lord in Liaodong." ”

Xu Qinglian and Mu Ningxue looked at each other and smiled when they heard this, Xu Qinglian smiled: "Hao'er wants to go crazy with her daughter, this time she will definitely come true and give birth to a charming little Ningxue." ”

In the evening, Xu Hao received the news and rushed to the relative's house where the Qi family lived. Mrs. Qi was distressed to death, crying and cursing at the same time.

Xu Hao walked to the bedside. When he opened the quilt and saw that he was bandaged, Lang Zhong said: "Although Qi Gongzi's injury is serious, fortunately, the treatment is timely, and the intestines are fine. Just don't do that. It seems that Yingyang has had a good relationship, but after too long, he has been too heavy, but he is more seriously injured than Qi Gongzi. Four or five inches of intestines are all shattered, and I am afraid that I will become a disabled person in the future, and the court will bleed after hard work. The drama can't be sung often, it can only be done occasionally. ”

Xu Hao nodded, and secretly said that Zhu Lu was so ruthless that he couldn't live if he did his own evil, and sooner or later he would suffer the consequences! Poor Yingyang became an anal fistula at the age of sixteen, what will he rely on for a living in the future?

comforted Mrs. Qi a few words, although Mrs. Qi hated King Gu deeply, she also knew that the Xu family could not help the royal family, and the official was just humiliating herself, so she could only choose to swallow her anger.

Xu Hao came out and ordered: "Give money to Yingyang to set up a Kunqu opera team in Hangzhou, let the Xia family and the Zhu family help one or two, and in the future, it will depend on his own creation, and learning well and badly is in one thought." ”

The main hall was built in November of the first year of Hongwu, when Xu Da led the Ming army to capture the capital of the Yuan Dynasty and obtained a large number of classics collected by the Yuan Dynasty.

Xu Da immediately ordered the sealing of all the books of the Yuan Dynasty royal and central government offices, and after moving them back to Tianfu, most of them were sent to the Wenyuan Pavilion, and some of them were included in the newly built main hall for the princes and kings to study and use.

Later, with the prince Zhu Biao changing to study in Wenhua Hall, the main hall was idle for a while, and it was reopened when Zhu Yunwen was studying, and the Zhan Mansion was established, and the main hall was used as a school for the prince to study, and its status was declining day by day.

Now that the Wenhua Hall has been given to a large number of celebrities such as Xie Jin to compile the Hongxi Ceremony, Zhu Gaochi remembers the old decree to renovate the main hall, which is just a simple pick-up, how can Zhu Yuanzhang repair the place where his children and grandchildren study beautifully? It's just like an ordinary folk school, with a tall and majestic roof at most.

The main hall is located in the east of the Forbidden City in the north-south direction of the central axis, in front of the Wenhua Palace, this side of the area is the East Palace, and the west side of the Wuying Hall is the central axis of the road to the west, commonly known as the West Palace.

The ancient books printed with the "Great Hall Book" in history are definitely the most precious national treasures, because all the books were destroyed in the first month of the second year of Ming orthodoxy and buried in a fire.

The Yongle Grand Ceremony was also incomplete in the Qing Dynasty due to wars and other reasons, which was an immeasurable loss in Chinese history.

Xu Hao attaches great importance to cultural inheritance, and has begun to prepare for the construction of the Ming Imperial Library, not only abandoning the traditional wooden structure building, but also replacing it with a reinforced concrete brick structure, and properly storing the most precious books, but also building hundreds of academies in all parts of the world, copying and storing rare books in various places.

The main hall should have been destroyed in the battle of Jingyan first, but the soup vessel was entrusted by Xu Hao to lead people to control the main hall during the chaos, so that the fire only burned the palace where Zhu Yunwen lived to ashes.

In the main hall, Xu Hao looked at the children of the royal family who read aloud the famous passages, he always believed that education can change the trajectory of people, but education cannot change people's nature.

Therefore, Xu Hao's interest in promoting universal literacy is far greater than teaching the royal family in front of him. Even though Zhu Gaochi repeatedly asked, he still fished for three days and dried his nets for two days, like an invisible person, and never taught.

Zhu Zhanji, who is eight years old this year, sits at the front, looking very handsome, somewhat like his grandfather Zhu Di, who has been studying very seriously since he was a child, and began to learn riding and archery martial arts when he was three years old.

Zhu Zhanji's performance was undoubtedly deeply appreciated by the Manchu civil and military, and he had already established the unshakable position of the prince at a young age, which greatly frustrated Zhu Gaoxu. Zhu Gaosui was jealous to death.

Xu Hao still remembers that when Zhu Zhanji was born, Zhu Di, who was worried day and night, seemed very happy, and it was because of the birth of his grandson that Zhu Di finally made up his mind to launch the Jingyan Change.

In history, the reason why Zhu Di chose his eldest son to inherit the throne is largely due to Zhu Zhanji, Xu Hao is convinced of this, if he knows how to be strict with himself at a young age, and his grandson who is both civil and military, then he will definitely not hesitate to set his grandson as the heir.

Zhu Gaochi was very proud to have such an outstanding son, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty believed that the crown prince would definitely be a qualified prince. In this regard, Xu Hao is very envious of Zhu Gaochi, and is pleased that his son is also very good. is very smart and sensible, so he is not worried about Zhu Gaochi's health, Zhu Zhanji will undoubtedly be an excellent king.

At the same time, he was also a little worried, whether Zhu Zhanji, who had few opinions, could listen to the suggestions of the ministers? Will there be conflicts with yourself in the future because of different ideas?

Compared with Zhu Zhanji's outstanding, the third generation of the royal family inevitably has a tendency to develop towards the sons of gentlemen, and they don't like to read, and Xu Hao is too lazy to care about them.

Zhu Gaochi has no daughters like Xu Hao over the years, the second son Zhu Zhanjun was born to the virtuous concubine Li, and the third son Zhu Zhanyong was born to the queen Zhang. It's like a race. Concubine Li gave birth to the fourth son of the emperor, Zhu Zhanyin, and the queen immediately gave birth to the fifth son of the emperor, Zhu Zhanyin.

The sixth son of the emperor, Zhu Zhanqi, was born to Concubine Zhang and had just turned one year old. Now that Concubine Xian is pregnant again, it can be seen that Zhu Gaochi has frequent sexual affairs.

The atmosphere in the early years of the Ming Dynasty was relatively open. There are often girls enrolled in the school, as long as the parents agree, the people do not think it is allowed, even until the end of the Ming Dynasty, there are examples of men and women studying together. Of course, under the age of thirteen, it is inconvenient to study with boys at the age of thirteen.

The same is true in the main hall, who in the royal family does not want children to have a good relationship with the prince. If there is no son of appropriate age, then send the daughter, and there are seven or eight girls sitting on one side, most of them the daughters of the princess's family.

At the end of class, Da Ru turned around and left, Zhu Zhanji walked up to Xu Hao, who was sitting in the courtyard, and said respectfully: "May I ask if my uncle is free, and my nephew has some puzzles and wants to ask for advice." ”

Xu Hao put down the lone book in his hand and said bluntly: "Please teach and ask, then it's free, my talent is not even worthy of lifting shoes for gentlemen, but history and miscellaneous studies can be discussed, you sit." ”

"Yes!" Zhu Zhanji didn't dare to grasp his identity in front of Xu Hao, he sat on the side in a proper manner, his back was straight, you must know that his mother has always regarded Xu Hao as his own brother, and the relationship with his Lao Tzu is even more speechless, and only the uncle in front of him dares to be angry at the emperor in the whole world.

Xu Hao said with a smile: "There is Zhang Youchi is the way to learn, you are too young and old, and it is not impossible to be naughty and naughty occasionally, even your father and I had nothing to do with crickets back then, and I was severely punished by Emperor Gao for fighting cocks and lackeys here."

At that time, we were punished for kneeling outside the Qianqing Palace, so we bribed the chamberlain to put soft cushions on our knees, secretly drank wine and ate meat, and once Emperor Gao called us in to say hello, smelled the wine, and was so angry that he punished us for kneeling for a whole night. ”

Zhu Zhanji laughed and said, "My nephew doesn't understand why my uncle advocates the opening of the sea ban? Many people went to sea to plunder places, moved to foreign countries and were not loyal to the imperial court, and merchants earned thousands of family fortunes through trading, and built mansions to wear silk and surpass the etiquette system, isn't it contrary to Emperor Gao's ancestral system? ”

Xu Hao nodded and said: "Dealing with state affairs should be adapted to local conditions, when the Ming Dynasty established the country, there were all kinds of wastes to be lifted, and the traitors entrenched overseas and colluded with the Japanese to harass the coast, and it was the emperor who decreed to ban the sea. And today, the Ming sailors have leveled the remnants of overseas and blocked the only way for the Japanese to pass, and the people multiply, thinking that the seafarers in Fujian, Guangdong and other places have relied on the sea for generations to live, and the local land is no longer enough to feed everyone, and not allowing the seafarers to go to sea to fish or do business, is it not equivalent to not allowing farmers to cultivate the land and merchants to do business? In order to survive, they became pirates, and they disguised themselves as Japanese people for fear of implicating their relatives, so the sea ban not only could not eradicate the Japanese pirates, but would make the Japanese more and more rampant. ”

Zhu Zhanji listened quietly as if he didn't understand, and Xu Hao said: "Since the Qin Dynasty, the dynasties have never restricted access to the sea, trade can promote the economy, and the annual tax payment in our dynasty is far less than that in the Southern Song Dynasty, and it is not advisable to put the burden of taxes on the peasants who rely on the sky for food. The so-called no agriculture is not stable, no business is not rich, no work is not strong, and the contribution of merchants and craftsmen to the country should not be discriminated against.

Emperor Taizu has laid a solid foundation, and in our generation, can he not inherit the previous and the next? How can the Ming Dynasty, who is inclusive of all seas, close the country and rest on its laurels? As for the people moving overseas, it is people's freedom, although you will inherit the throne in the future, but I think you have to change your concept, this world has been developing forward, overseas is not a barbarian land, there is no less than my Chinese civilization. I can tell you directly that many countries such as the Annam Wa Kingdom claim to be emperors, and the empire established by Timur of the Western Regions, who has just died of illness, is even larger than the territory of my Ming Dynasty.

If you still think that you are the superior kingdom of the Celestial Empire and look down on other countries, then you have read history books for many years, and how many times has the Han dynasty fallen into the hands of foreigners? The Song Dynasty is a lesson from the past.

You are the heir of the Ming Dynasty, but you are not the emperor of the entire world, and the result of being proud and complacent and trying to control all the people as cattle and horses is that sooner or later you will not be able to escape the fate of the Ming Dynasty being destroyed, so you have to be kind to the subjects of the world, and keep your eyes on the entire world, rather than holding the old concept that the whole world is not the king's land.

Tang Taizong said that water can carry a boat and can also overturn a boat, let the royal family fish and eat the people, sooner or later the people will abandon the royal family. The world is still the same world, but how much has the emperor's family changed from ancient times to the present? Where are the Liu family in the Han Dynasty, the Li family in the Tang Dynasty, and the Zhao family in the Song Dynasty? (To be continued......)
