Chapter 113: Master and Disciple Ask for a Monthly Pass)

Heart disease!

Almost when Zhu Mingzhong came back from Yangzhou, he felt as if he was hit hard and couldn't get up at all. Along the way, there was only one sentence in his mind.

"For the Ming Dynasty, Wu must do this!"

Another time Wu Weiye's words emerged in Zhu Mingzhong's mind.

"Bang!"

He suddenly threw the teacup to the ground, and the teacup was broken into pieces, and the tea was shining in the sun.

"Will I fuck him?"

Zhu Mingzhong cursed fiercely!

Why did they open their mouths for the Ming Dynasty? I fought from Jiangyin to Xuzhou for the Ming Dynasty, and I had traveled many times. Those bastards had a good time, so they had to deal with themselves for the Ming Dynasty!

"He deserves to be killed!"

When he scolded this, Zhu Mingzhong was so angry that he wanted to take a knife and cut Wu Weiye with one stone!

But...he didn't!

Not only did he not cut off this person, he even directly returned him to Nanjing.

"Chengren, why are you so angry!"

Just then, the sound of words came from outside the door made Zhu Mingzhong quickly put away his anger, stood up and bowed to the visitor.

"The students have met the master! They have never gone out to greet each other, so they ask the teacher to atone for their sins!"

Despite his anger, Zhu Mingzhong still followed the etiquette of this era, "Heaven, Earth, Lord, Parents and Teachers". As a disciple in this era, one must be respectful to the teacher. This is the duty of being a disciple. Of course, what is more important is that Zhu Mingzhong, who has no foundation in this era, needs to rely on the relationship between Zhu Zhiyu and others in the scholars to attract talents.

Even the reason why Zhu Mingzhong asked Zhu Zhiyu to preside over Qingjiang Academy was to use it to cultivate talents. After all, Zhu Mingzhong knew very well that in addition to his high attainments in traditional Confucianism, Zhu Zhiyu also learned from his teacher a new discipline in the late Ming Dynasty: practical learning. practical learning, which originated from the "School of Mechanics" in the Song Dynasty, emphasizing the practical use of the world. Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng, outstanding politicians during the Wanli period of Longqing, were both loyal believers of practical learning. Zhu Zhiyu successively received three teachers: Zhu Yongyou, Zhang Kentang, and Wu Zhongluan, who were all loyal believers of practical learning.

How powerful are these three people: Zhu Yongyou, the Minister of Personnel in the Chongzhen period, Zhang Kentang. The governor of Fujian during the Chongzhen period was Wu Zhongluan. Although his official position was not high, his education achievements were outstanding. Many celebrities in the court and the country were his students. Wu Zhongluan. This person is versatile, and he taught all kinds of things from financial and taxes to farming and chopping wood. In addition to these exclusive skills, what he taught Zhu Zhiyu the most was his firm belief. He often used various methods to hone Zhu Zhiyu's will and repeatedly instilled into Zhu Zhiyu was a strong belief: he could not be loyal and filial, even if he had economic talent, what would be beneficial?

It can be said that it was this powerful belief that supported Zhu Zhiyu's lifelong choice.

Of course, for Zhu Mingzhong, what he needed was this teacher who had achieved great success in practical learning in the late Ming Dynasty. He promoted practical learning at Qinghe Academy and cultivated a group of "new talents" that were completely different from Confucian theories such as Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism. Practical learning emphasizes "using the world and using it" and "researching things to learn knowledge". Its essence is "the study of physical and practical understanding".

Compared to defeating the Qing Dynasty in the military and restoring China, Zhu Mingzhong knew very well that what really determined China's destiny was whether the "Study on Entity and Utilization" could gain a foothold in China in the future, and Zhu Ziyu and Qingjiang Academy were the key links.

It is precisely because of this that he supported the academy with great strength and appointed Zhu Zhiyu as the chief of the academy. However, no one could understand Zhu Mingzhong's original intention at this time. On the one hand, because Zhu Zhiyu was his mentor, and on the other hand, because he had some "pictures" for him, Zhu Mingzhong has always been respectful to him.

Zhu Zhiyu just nodded slightly to the respectfulness of the students.

"Chengren, although you and I are masters and apprentices, you are the imperial officials, so there is no need for such a great court!"

"Teacher, the courtesy must not be abolished!"

Zhu Zhiyu felt aroused when he was stubborn about Zhu Mingzhong and did not say anything. After sitting down, he looked at the disciple who was very pleased and said.

"Chengren, I heard from Daxian that after you came back from Yangzhou this time, you have been depressed and happy. What's the matter?"

Zhu Mingzhong's trip to Yangzhou was a good thing for the corps office. He confiscated 49 traitors and salt merchants in Yangzhou. While shocking the world, he confiscated the silver, houses, and land. In this way, the situation of financial resources that has been plaguing Jiangbei was immediately fundamentally alleviated. At least for the next two or three years, there was no need to worry about money. As the owner of the house, Yao Xiang looked smiling all day long.

But compared to the joy of others, Zhu Mingzhong looked depressed. Zhu Zhiyu, who knew his personality, would naturally not misunderstand that it was a pity for those Yangzhou salt merchants. His straightforward personality and hated evil were not only the reason why Zhu Zhiyu admired him, but also his lack of personality.

Since it’s not because of the salt merchant, what’s the matter?

"teacher……"

He sighed helplessly, and looked at the concern on Zhu Zhiyu's face, Zhu Mingzhong smiled bitterly.

"Student, students don't know how to speak!"

After a long sigh, Zhu Mingzhong said again.

"Students don't know why students are loyal to our Ming Dynasty. Although they dare not say that they have made great contributions, they have some hard work. However, in the eyes of some people, they have to kill students for the Ming Dynasty!"

What!

Looking at Zhu Mingzhong in shock, Zhu Zhiyu was startled by his words.

"Who? Chengren? Who wants to kill you again, but Zheng Yanping?"

Almost subconsciously, Zhu Zhiyu thought of the disagreement between him and Zheng Yanping, and naturally subconsciously thought that Zheng Yanping wanted to kill him.

"The prince is honest and will never disdain to use such despicable means..."

Shaking his head, Zhu Mingzhong looked at his master and said what Wu Weiye said in Yangzhou in the future.

"... Prince Zheng was in Jiangnan and Cangshui was in Jiangxi, and students were in Jiangbei, which would definitely cause harm to the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, although students made contributions to the Ming Dynasty, they were also the sinners of the Ming Dynasty. For the Ming Dynasty, they could only kill students to rest in peace! If the students were not eliminated, the world would be uneasy!"

When he said this, Zhu Mingzhong suppressed anger in his heart. If possible, he would like to kill all the ministers in Nanjing. These people may not have the ability to do the world, but the ability to harm the world is naturally generated, especially in internal fighting.

Zhu Mingzhong's words came into Zhu Zhiyu's ears, which also made a burst of anger surge in his heart.
