Jiang Yi drank Ming wine, but fortunately before defining the conversational character Zhu Yuanzhang, he systematically looked at the documents summarized by historians for himself, and had enough understanding of all eras of the Ming Dynasty.

Otherwise, based on the frequent questions Zhu Yuanzhang asked, and the Ming Dynasty, who asked them all, it would be difficult for him to answer them for a while.

This can be said to be enough for a historical and cultural host to die on the spot.

He quickly recalled the Yongle Ceremony in his mind and said frankly: "The Yongle Ceremony was a book compiled by Zhu Di, a major Chinese classics compiled by Yu Dacheng, which was the largest encyclopedia in the history of human civilization and can be called a miracle of the world."

"The Yongle Ceremony combines the astronomy, geography, yin and yang, medicine, divination, monks and Taoism, skills and other historical materials from all dynasties in China. It combines the great achievements of Chinese culture and provides a path for research for later generations of various disciplines and cultures before the early Ming Dynasty."

Jiang Yi stood up and strolled in Yingtian Hall, making an example: "Ancient classics are like Zheng He treasure ships one after another. Their forms, language, content, and words are all portrayals of civilizations after another, and are priceless treasures of Chinese civilization."

"The Yongle Ceremony is a treasure ship carrying the civilizations of major eras in China. It is the most precious treasure left by Emperor Yongle for our future generations!"

Jiang Yi's words are full of pearls, and his voice echoes in Yingtian Palace: "Emperor Yongle spent a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources on this. Although many people are puzzled, he is still willing to bear this infamy and record those epics for our future generations!"

After he finished speaking, Emperor Yongle, wearing a dragon robe and sitting casually on the dragon throne, leaning his body with his right hand lazily supported his mind and his hair was a little gray.

In the hall where Emperor Yongle went to work, there were three old red robe officials standing.

Zhu Di half-squinted his eyes, and his index finger in his left hand casually tapped the table. The slight "dong...dong" sound seemed to tell the ministers in the hall that I was very unhappy.

"Your Majesty, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the country has been fighting for years, and the Ministry of Revenue has not had so much silver. Otherwise, we should suspend the compilation of the Yongle Ceremony, right?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, now the country needs to cultivate and nourish and rest. If the Ministry of Revenue is empty because of the Yongle Ceremony, if there is an urgent need in the Ming Dynasty, the Ministry of Revenue will not be able to allocate funds..."

"Your Majesty, now the Oirat, Tatar and other tribes are still eyeing our Ming Dynasty. This time, the Yongle Ceremony was compiled, and the court officials and scholars who participated in the study of the past 21,600 scholars and scholars. In addition, people were sent to search for various classics among the people, which cost too much money..."

At this time, the Ming Dynasty had not yet reached the bank of the Onon River. The surrounding foreign races attacked the Ming border from time to time, which was a time when it was full of internal and external troubles.

An old red-robed official with a goatee and looked over fifty years old, bowed and frowned slightly, looking worried: "At this time, if the Oirat, Tatar and other tribes send troops to attack and launch a war with the Ming Dynasty, the Ministry of Revenue will have no money to supply military supplies."

"At that time, once the soldiers cannot eat enough and cannot wear good armor, the Ming Dynasty will be in danger!"

Several old ministers risked their heads being beheaded and tried their best to advise in the hall.

They believe that at present, the Ming Dynasty is far from the time to make a lot of money. It is undoubtedly a wrong decision to continue to spend so much money and energy to compile the Yongle Ceremony when the money is not rich and the country is not strong enough.

They cannot let the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty have no armor, and they cannot let the people on the border be under the swords of aliens at all times!

We must also prepare for the future famine that may arise in the Ming Dynasty!

Zhu Di's half-closed eyes opened slightly and asked back, "Are you finished?"

“???”

The old ministers were all stunned. Looking at His Majesty's expression, it seemed that he didn't listen to anything?

"The Yongle Ceremony must be compiled as soon as possible, no matter how much manpower and material resources the Ming Dynasty has to pay."

Zhu Di's tone didn't sound much, but it just gave people a chilling feeling.

He sat upright slowly and glanced at the three old ministers.

"You are all pillars of my Ming Dynasty. Did you know me on the first day?"

"What is the Oirat? What is the Tatar? If I hadn't considered the insufficient financial resources, I would have led the army to personally expedition and wiped out them all."

Zhu Di's voice casually revealed domineeringness: "But now, since the country has no money to fight, why not do something that can benefit the country and the people?"

"My civil servants and scholars of the Ming Dynasty cannot do nothing!"

He said domineeringly: "I want to compile the Yongle Ceremony. This is not only for the people of the world to master more things, but also for the future generations!"

"You think about it carefully. From the Qin Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty, between the past thousand years, how many classics have we had in China, either burned down or lost in the war, and how many medical skills and skills are either unable to find the classics or have been lost!"

"I ask you to search for these classics and summarize them in one place, and to summarize a book that gathers the great achievements of Chinese civilization for my future generations and thousands of people."

Zhu Di stood up and walked to the three old ministers. He first looked at the one on the left, then looked at the middle of his eyes and the one on the right, and was arrogant without anger: "I, didn't you let the people cultivate their lives and rest?"

"I asked you to compile the Yongle Ceremony. Have you harmed the people in this process?"

"When the three years of Yongle were mentioned in later generations, they could not say, "Ah, this emperor only knew how to enjoy it in the years before the war, and did nothing for his own people, right?"

"Can I raise a group of literati for nothing?"

The old minister in the middle sighed, "But Your Majesty, the most important thing at the moment is not whether the people are cultivating and recuperating, but that the money in our treasury is really not enough."

"If this continues, if the local government has difficulties, the treasury will not be able to allocate any money."

"As the Minister of Revenue, it is necessary for me to remind Your Majesty that you must not lose the hearts of the people because of the Yongle Ceremony."

Zhu Di nodded, but said disdain: "Ha! Are you embarrassed to say that you are the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue?"

"The country is short of money. You are not here to provide me with a feasible solution, but to tell me, Oh, Your Majesty, the country is out of money, you can save money, right?"

"Do I need such a minister of the Ministry of Revenue?"

"This... Your Majesty, I must not let Your Majesty save you. I don't object to the compilation of the Yongle Ceremony, but I just hope that it can be postponed for a few years..."

"A few years later, the Ming Dynasty's money will be even less than enough!"

Zhu Di was angry rarely, waved his arms, pointed to the map that had been placed behind the dragon throne and said, "Look at the border of the Ming Dynasty!"

"Wala Yesian, the Tatar tribe, and Yiliba, which of these countries is not eyeing our Ming Dynasty now!"

"I can tell you clearly now that I will beat them up sooner or later!"

"I will never be a successful ruler. I just want to expand my territory!"

"The Yongle Ceremony is also a must-read!"

"Are you going to start a war with the alien race now or continue to compile the Yongle ceremony? Now! Give me an answer right now!"
