After coming out of Xia Yuanji's place, Xu Jingchang took Zhu Zhanji and went to the Ministry of Industry... It was in the afternoon when the two of them came out of the Ministry of Personnel, which was the end of the day's journey.
Zhu Zhanji's head was drooping, his head was drooping, he was weak, tired, and aggrieved.
"Cousin, I'm tired."
Xu Jingchang looked at the little guy and said angrily: "Are you still complaining about being tired? This is not much more interesting than reading for enlightenment. And do you remember everything I taught you today?"
Zhu Zhanji thought about it seriously and then said: "Isn't it just a way of asking questions? It's just a few sentences and I've memorized them by heart. It's much easier than memorizing poetry."
"Well, when you meet Grandpa Qin and Grandma Huang, you can ask questions in front of them and see how they answer. See how powerful what I teach you is!"
Zhu Zhanji rolled his little eyes and said, "Cousin, if Grandpa Huang says that your teaching is not good, you have to give me that sea green."
Xu Jingchang sneered, "You little guy will have to work hard for decades if you want to win something from me!"
Xu Jingchang said, picked up Zhu Zhanji and got into the carriage, returning to Xu Mansion.
This little guy was so tired that he actually fell asleep while leaning on the corner of the carriage.
Empress Xu said distressedly: "You are still young. Let the bachelors educate you in the future. Don't follow Xu Jingchang. He is still a child, how can he take care of others."
In this way, Zhu Zhanji was brought into the palace. When the little guy opened his eyes in a daze, he found that the emperor's grandfather was holding him, and the emperor's grandmother had cooked several dishes that he liked to eat.
"Do you think the court should let the people live and work in peace and contentment?"
"Yes." Queen Xu nodded.
Zhu Zhanji nodded, "What I asked Grandpa Huang was what he told the ministers. What I asked Grandma Huang taught me was in the carriage. He also said that this thing is very powerful, and he asked me to learn it hard and remember it in my memory.
In my heart."
"You said that if your grandson asked us two sets of questions in reverse, how would you answer?"
Zhu Di was startled and asked hurriedly: "Then what did he do?"
Before their carriage entered the Xu family gate, the eunuch Hou Xian arrived. His Majesty and the Queen missed their grandson and took the eldest grandson into the palace.
"Then are you worried about being militaristic and constantly using troops abroad?"
"You don't understand. This person will get carried away when he is proud. The higher he is praised, the harder he falls. Some courtiers are like this, letting them make mistakes so that they can be easily eliminated. As for what happens next, they will slap each other with their mouths.
Anyway, it's all rational. How to get them to say what the emperor needs is a skill. You need to be able to control the courtiers instead of being influenced by them."
Zhu Zhanji said: "My cousin said so."
Zhu Di took a deep breath and said slowly: "I will also oppose recruiting soldiers."
"Xu Jingchang takes you away for a day and teaches you this?"
"yes."
Queen Xu was stunned for a long time, and suddenly sighed: "You said the prince's brother, but I remembered my eldest brother. His father taught him to be loyal to ministers, filial to sons, sincere to relatives, and righteous to friends... He should be worthy of admiration.
God, I am worthy of the earth."
"Um."
Throughout Zhu Biao's life, you will find that he had almost no setbacks and no enemies.
The civil servants hoped that he would change Zhu Yuanzhang's style of governing the country and at least give the scholars some dignity.
Zhu Di sighed with emotion for a while, then suddenly looked down at Zhu Zhanji.
Zhu Zhanji did not agree immediately, but turned to Queen Xu again.
Zhu Di laughed loudly and said, "Who says otherwise? Things are even more difficult when it comes to the royal family. Not only our family, but also the courtiers and nobles, everyone wants to get involved. There is no way to say what is right or wrong."
Zhu Zhanji thought about it seriously and then said: "If you are poor, you will hold a grudge. If you are rich, you will counterattack."
He is not only Zhu Yuanzhang's favorite son, but also Zhu Di's most respected brother... not only Zhu Di, but all the princes and courtiers, regardless of whether they are civil or military, respect him.
Zhu Di thought for a while and sighed: "It wouldn't work if I didn't teach him earlier. Aren't you clamoring to choose a bachelor to enlighten your grandson? If he is surrounded by scribes, it will be difficult to teach him anything. I just remembered
He became the eldest brother he was back then."
At this time Zhu Di actually smiled, "Xu Jingchang is lazy by nature. He won't hang out in those yamen when he has nothing to do... What did he do?"
Zhu Di smiled and said: "This is easy to say, but how difficult it is to do! This is how the elder brother protects this and protects that. He spends all his energy fighting with his father all day long. If he cannot protect one, he will feel ashamed and blame himself. As a result, he is worse than his father.
After leaving for so many years, Zhu Yunwen ascended the throne and Jingnan was established!"
Queen Xu sighed, "Isn't it the same for my eldest brother? One generation of the Xu family has collapsed, and only my nephew is left...Now that I think about it, I'm not sure how to teach a child well."
Zhu Zhanji immediately became energetic and started gobbling up the food.
"Yes!" Zhu Di said after thinking for a while.
Zhu Di rarely had a smile on his face, "Okay, listen to your eldest grandson."
Zhu Zhanji hesitated for a moment, and he swore to God that although Xu Jingchang was not that reliable, as the grandson of the emperor, he still had some moral limits.
"We all came here at that time. Tell me, even if my eldest brother succeeds to the throne, will he be able to do these things?"
"Ah! Who did you learn this from?" Zhu Di asked in surprise.
Queen Xu frowned, she really didn't want to... But what do these two different ways of asking questions mean?
Hearing this, Zhu Zhanji finally remembered the business. He tried hard to swallow the fish in his mouth, thought seriously for a while, and finally remembered Xu Jingchang's question.
"Then you must not want to recruit troops?"
Queen Xu nodded, "That's right."
Zhu Zhanji said vaguely: "He took his grandson to many yamen. His feet hurt from walking and he was tired."
"Xie Xueshi, he said Xie Xueshi and others took away his power." Zhu Zhanji whispered.
"My dear grandson, why don't you tell me what you plan to do?"
Zhu Zhanji was serious, as if he was possessed by Xu Jingchang, "Do you think young people should not be idle?"
From top to bottom, from the inside out, everyone thinks of him and has high hopes for him.
Thinking of this, Zhu Di stretched out his hand, hugged Zhu Zhanji in his arms, and asked in a low voice: "What else has Xu Jingchang taught you in the past few days? Tell Grandpa Huang about it."
When Zhu Biao was mentioned, Zhu Di looked a little sad.
"Do you think the imperial court should be light on corvee and light on taxes, and rest with the people?"
"Praise, praise in that newspaper, and let me take it into the palace to show it to Grandpa Huang."
"Then you must support recruiting soldiers?"
The princes enjoy the protection of their eldest brother, and they don't have to worry even if they get into trouble. If Zhu Biao is here, who dares to cut down the vassal? Who will force the vassal king to death?
Zhu Di was startled for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said: "Why, Xu Jingchang took you to convince the court officials?"
Empress Xu looked at her husband in confusion, and Zhu Di frowned. After a while, he seemed to understand.
Zhu Di thought for a while and said: "No matter what, I can't be a good person. I hate the boss, not because he is fat. How can a father despise his own son? I just think he has a weak character and is hesitant. I am afraid that he will follow the same example as his elder brother."
If you make the same mistakes, you will not be able to treat this family well."
He stuffed it into his mouth one after another, his cheeks bulging like a hamster, which made Queen Xu frown, "What's going on? A hungry ghost has been reincarnated? Marquis Wuyang took you out to play for a day, why did he still starve you?
Already?"
Queen Xu was stunned for a long time, and said with a helpless smile: "There is such a great knowledge in this? How old is my grandson? Is it appropriate to teach him this?"
"Yes! That's right."
It's Di Bao!
Zhu Di suddenly raised his head and glanced at Queen Xu. The couple looked at each other... What did Xu Jingchang teach his grandson? To be double-dealing and to harm others behind your back?
Or are you confusing right and wrong and calling a deer a horse?
"Do you think the Ming Dynasty urgently needs a lot of soldiers and horses to make up for the losses in the past four years?"
Queen Xu pondered for a long time and then said: "I will probably support recruiting soldiers, right?"
"Then do you think refugees who have left their homes should return to their place of origin and reunite with their relatives?"
When Zhu Di asked for the third time, Zhu Zhanji said honestly: "He taught me how to harm others."
Zhu Di sighed repeatedly, raised his head and laughed.
"Good boy (should be beaten)!"
The military commander Xungui did not want to continue to be on tenterhooks. They wanted to live for two more days without being implicated.
The couple blurted out, but they looked at each other. Queen Xu was furious and wanted to slap Zhu Di twice, "You still applaud him when he teaches his grandson like this?"
"Harm someone? Who?"
The couple both looked at each other.
Empress Xu couldn't help but smile, "If a child is honest and obedient, he will not be able to stand on his own feet, and he will not have the ability to act independently. If he is disobedient, will always be against him, and will be annoyed and disliked... it is really difficult!"
"Grandpa Huang, I'm asking you, will you agree yes or no?"
Zhu Di pondered for a long time, stroked Zhu Zhanji's forehead, and said with emotion: "He really taught you a lot of good things!"
Zhu Di glanced at Empress Xu and said directly: "I just dismissed Prince Xu Jingchang as the Taibao, so let's give him a job as Prince Zhan!"
Queen Xu was startled and said hurriedly: "The prince hasn't been registered yet, why are you in such a hurry?"
Zhu Di hummed: "I don't care who the prince is, anyway, the grandson must be our precious grandson." As he said this, he lifted Zhu Zhanji up and kissed the black boy hard on the face.
