[comprehensive] mother instrument world

To be honest, as a father of this era, Zhu Yuanzhang is unexpectedly open-minded, but it is understandable when he thinks about it. If he is the kind of old-fashioned person who does not know how to adapt, he will not be able to get to this step.Zhu Yuanzhang started the world with his own bare hands, so he naturally hopes that his children will not have to rely on their laurels and can have their own careers.

After seeing Shu Yun's ability, and seeing the power shown when women are no longer confined to the family, but start to truly enter the society, Zhu Yuanzhang, as an emperor, naturally cannot look at it with narrow eyes. this problem.The greater the proportion of women participating in the labor force, the greater the contribution to the entire country's finances and other aspects.

Among other things, although there is no so-called personal income tax these days, there are many indirect taxes.When women have money, their consumption desires are naturally stimulated.In the past, I was reluctant to spend money. On the one hand, it was because of being diligent and thrifty in housekeeping. On the other hand, it was because I didn’t earn money, or I earned very little money. Was dubbed the title of "prodigal girl".Whether they are producing or consuming, the imperial court can receive corresponding taxes from workshops and shops.

Under such circumstances, Zhu Yuanzhang naturally encouraged women to get out of the family and truly enter the society to make corresponding contributions. In this case, he would naturally not limit his daughters, and would not use girls so hard, just need to be safe. The excuse of being safe and secure, restricting the growth of her own daughter.Relying on anyone is false, only relying on yourself is true.

In real history, among Zhu Yuanzhang's more than ten daughters, almost every one is really happy. This is also unavoidable. In the battle, I don't know how many Xungui were involved in it. Coupled with Zhu Yuanzhang's jealous temper, if Xungui's children fell into his hands, he would not care whether they were son-in-law or not.

Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang hasn’t thought about it that much at the moment, or in other words, having a different experience from that period of time online, Zhu Yuanzhang’s personality naturally has some subtle changes, or in other words, the current Huaixi nobles are not like During that period of time, it was so strong. In this country where there are new changes almost every day, the thinking is also undergoing drastic changes. received a corresponding impact.

To put it bluntly, no matter what position you stand on, what school of thought, no one can survive on wind and dew. Even Confucius, who was consecrated as a saint, still needs to eat. If he is hungry to a certain extent, he doesn’t care about the food brought by his disciples. How did the meat come from, and I ate it without saying a word!Even if Confucius was like this, these disciples really want to talk about festivals, and it is not an exaggeration to say that one generation is not as good as the other.People who can still maintain their integrity in the face of Brother Kong Fang, when facing the white flowers and golden flowers, they can still speak sanctimoniously, and their hearts are already really sweet!

At this time, everyone found that whether it is the emperor or the whole society, everyone is more practical, and they only pay attention to what can make them more profitable, rather than what knowledge can make them more noble in thinking and morality.For example, now, there are quite a few people who switch directly to become businessmen after passing the imperial examination as a scholar. Compared with Haoshou Qiongjing, it takes ten years or even longer to take the examination of a scholar or even a Jinshi, but in the end there is no way out, or If you fail the training assessment, you may not be as good as a retired sergeant in your official career, and that would be too shameful!

The reason why Shu Yun suggested reforming the imperial examination is to cultivate a group of professional talents. Not only the government needs such professional talents, but the people also need such people. Directly start to engage in various vocational and technical schools!

Zhu Yuanzhang also began to discover that he didn't need to rely on a group of Confucian scholars to govern the country at all. If their social influence was nine before, it is much worse now!To put it bluntly, part of the social influence of Confucian scholars was because they had the right to interpret knowledge, and the other part was the class they represented, which controlled nearly half of the land in the world, or the best half of the land. Capital, that is, Yuan Ting is a group of people who are not very particular, and will deprive them of the property of farming and studying families at will, so they don't take them seriously. Others, no matter who is the emperor, have to respect their opinions.The emperor can kill some scholars, but it is impossible to fight against all scholars.

But now, the country's economy's dependence on land has dropped too much, and food or something is not a big problem.On the one hand, it is because plants such as kudzu root and yam that are not picky about the land are widely planted on the wasteland that could not be cultivated. Began to consciously hoard food imported from other vassal states.In addition, Zhu Yuanzhang is now staring at Annan.The Champa rice grown in the Central Plains is produced in Annan. Although the taste is a bit poor, the yield is really relatively high.On Annan's side, they cook three times a year.There is nothing to say about the taste. No matter how bad the taste of rice is, it is still food. What's more, ordinary people don't care about the taste at all!

It just so happened that Annan was not very honest all the time. He secretly made various tricks and tried to bargain with Daming. Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang always wanted to find a way to make it become Daming's granary.Zhu Yuanzhang even considered choosing someone to marry Annan, and then let Annan change his surname directly!Of course, if Annan's side is really uneasy, Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't mind turning it into a feudal state for one of his sons.

Therefore, under the current circumstances, Confucianism simply does not have enough trump cards to fight against Zhu Yuanzhang. As time goes on, their right to speak will be squeezed more and more, and some real doers will really come to the fore.

Confucianism is much more honest. When the country was first founded, some people still shouted to follow the old rules and canonize the Confucian family in Qufu. Now no one dares to say anything!In fact, speaking of the old rules, the title of Lord Yan Sheng only came from the Northern Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty treated the Confucius family well, and as a result, they had a new master in a blink of an eye.Grasping this point, Zhu Yuanzhang said that if Confucius knew that he had such a descendant who bowed his knees to the barbarians, he would rather be extinct. Therefore, is the Confucius family worthy of the word Yansheng?

The more Zhu Yuanzhang knew about the so-called Yanshenggong family, the more he hated it. Therefore, although there were Confucius in the Taimiao, it also increased the number of schools of thought. Sealed.As for the original Yanshenggong Mansion, Zhu Yuanzhang directly sent people to turn it into a Confucian temple, or a temple for sacrificing Confucian sages.Then something interesting happens!

Confucius was the founder of Confucianism, but in fact, after Confucius passed away, Confucianism split in a substantial sense. Confucius' students and descendants of Confucius felt that they were orthodox, and Xunzi directly created Legalism. There were really many schools of Confucianism at that time. There were a lot of schools of thought on the Book of Songs alone, and another bunch of schools of thought on the Spring and Autumn Period. They almost didn’t beat each other’s brains out. As a representative figure, when he deposed the Hundred Schools, he almost kicked down the other different factions of Confucianism along the way!If you put the so-called "Five Classics of Justice" at that time, those schools of thought would probably refuse to recognize any of them!

Zhu Yuanzhang said, I was a rough person, I didn’t know a single word at the beginning, that is, I only read a few books later, and I didn’t know that there were so many weird schools in your Confucianism, so I will tell you all the past and present. The sages of Confucianism have all been put in the Confucian temple. After all, they are all disciples of Confucius. If they are put together, can Confucius not recognize them?

Zhu Yuanzhang made such a statement, what else can other people say, they can't say that those are not Confucian sages, right? Are you trying to deceive teachers and destroy ancestors?

No matter where it is, if there are too many people, it is worthless. Anyway, the original Yanshenggong Mansion has been expanded for hundreds of years, and the place is also very large. Zhu Yuanzhang hated the Kong family and drove them away. Therefore, inside There are also many sages who can be stuffed in, and even some far-fetched ones are stuffed in. Now, the Confucius Temple seems crowded.

People who don't know, naturally feel that this place is quite sacred, and it feels like a gathering of Wenqu stars. In fact, those scholars who know it feel like they have eaten flies.

Zhu Yuanzhang almost broke his belly from laughing in secret, and he was plausible about it. For Confucius, maybe everyone is a bunch of unworthy descendants, so there is no difference if there is more or less!

Zhu Yuanzhang's magical pen has made Confucianism lose all face, but there are still sufferings that can't be said, so I can only admit it!In fact, Confucianism is actually a school that is very good at changing, or in other words, in order to make their school have enough vitality, they can turn themselves into dog lickers at any time.Therefore, some Confucian scholars have begun to choose suitable items from the sage's humble words and righteousness, and want to keep up with Zhu Yuanzhang's proposition and rhythm!

For example, Liu Ji is a typical example. Liu Ji cannot be regarded as a pure Confucian student. Confucian knowledge is just a stepping stone for him to open the door of official career. In the Yuan court, his ambition cannot be displayed. When it came to Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yuanzhang was not interested in Confucianism, but was interested in Legalism and his other miscellaneous studies. In other words, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care what school you belonged to, he only looked at whether your knowledge was useful!

Like Li Shanchang back then, when it comes to learning, what is it?He just stood on the right side, and then, although he did things a bit unscrupulously, but he succeeded, then he is a hero!No matter how good your knowledge is, if you can't do things, it's useless.Song Lian was Zhu Biao's teacher back then, but he was almost driven back to eat himself!

Liu Ji is now thinking about whether to come up with a knowledge to explain the current world, yes, this world makes Liu Ji a little incomprehensible!Of course, Liu Ji is actually not very good at doing academic things. Although later generations deified him, in fact, the real him is a good at miscellaneous learning, um, just a master of learning.As a scholar, he naturally has the ambition to write books and talk about it. Others can become sages, why can't he?

Zhu Yuanzhang is happy to see the success of this, and it would be the best. He is born with the consciousness of the ruling class's supremacy, and all theories should serve him, instead of making him succumb to a certain theory!Therefore, no matter what others say in private, Zhu Yuanzhang still chooses the corresponding path according to his own will.

While Zhu Xi was still running around for his own great cause of building a city, Zhu Biao's wedding finally began.

The wedding ceremony is very complicated. In order to show their sense of existence, a group of Confucian scholars read the "Book of Rites" countless times, as well as many records from previous dynasties, and finally came up with a whole set of decent ceremonies. Come out, almost accurate enough to take a few steps, and when you walk, you should take that foot first!It is also fortunate that the handicraft industry of Daming is very developed now, otherwise, just looking at the various costumes and ritual utensils needed for their ceremony, it would take a long time to prepare!

Fortunately, the protagonist of the big wedding is Zhu Biao, Zhu Yuanzhang and Shu Yun just need to sit there and wait, there is no need for them to show up too much.

As the crown prince, Zhu Biao's wedding is not only his personal affair, but a major family and country event, which makes Zhu Biao, who is used to seeing the big world since childhood, a little nervous.As for the little girl from the Chang family who was about to become the crown princess, she was naturally more nervous.

Although as Chang Yuchun's daughter, Chang Ruyue is actually quite a tough little girl, or in other words, it's not so common for a girl to be gentle and virtuous when born in a family like theirs, especially nowadays It was the first year of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Chang Yuchun was not originally from a wealthy family, and Chang Ruyue's mother was not a lady.

Chang Yuchun is a smart person. Although he didn't know that his daughter would be a princess, he also knew that his daughter was unlikely to find a partner in a civil servant's house, so he didn't have much restraint on his daughter, especially Later, after seeing how the emperor and empress educated their own daughter Zhu Xi, Chang Yuchun's education of Chang Ruyue was almost the same as that of his own son.

Therefore, although Chang Ruyue can't be regarded as a hero of the female high school, she can be regarded as having seen a lot of the world!When she first knew that she would become a princess, she didn't have much sense of reality. It's not that she has never met Zhu Biao. In her eyes, Zhu Biao is similar to her elder brother, and has a more gentle temper. It's the same as Zhu Xi, with a more domineering personality.Shu Yun didn't think that this was his future daughter-in-law, so he sent someone from the palace to investigate JIAO in advance, which means he didn't trust the Chang family's upbringing!Anyway, after the wedding, there is plenty of time to adjust, so there is no need to deprive the little girl of such a little free time before marriage.As for the Chang family, everyone was a bitch before, and they didn't know what preparations should be made before their daughter's wedding, so they simply had to be busy preparing their daughter's dowry.Therefore, for a long time before Chang Ruyue, she almost never wanted to marry herself, and she married the crown prince consciously.

It wasn't until the big wedding was about to happen that the atmosphere in the whole capital was different, and she realized it later. When this day really came, she felt the solemn and solemn atmosphere around her, and Chang Ruyue was so nervous that she was almost out of breath. But I'm angry.

Fortunately, although she was quite nervous, under the guidance of the ceremonial officer and the service of the palace servants, there was no mistake on the big pleats. Chang Ruyue successfully completed one ceremony after another, and when she finally walked into the bridal chamber , There is already a blank in my mind.

"Speaking of which, time flies, Biao'er is married!" Seeing that Zhu Biao had returned to normal now, and could deal with a group of honorable ministers calmly, Shu Yun couldn't help whispering to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang also felt a little emotional. You must know that when he was young, he thought that he would be a monk for the rest of his life and would never marry a wife!At that time, how could he have imagined that Zhu Laosi would still have such a day?Thinking of this, he looked at Shu Yun, and his expression suddenly softened.

Apart from those neighbors, Guo Zixing was the first to appreciate Zhu Yuanzhang, and it was precisely because of that appreciation that he had a good wife.

To be honest, Zhu Yuanzhang has always been curious about how Shu Yun grew up to have the knowledge and knowledge he has today.In other words, many things probably belong to the so-called divine gift!Zhu Yuanzhang himself can be considered a genius to some extent, and he is also very diligent. He only started to read and read when he was in his 20s, and now he is good at composing poems and articles!

As for Shu Yun, to be honest, Guo Zixing himself is at that level, and Mrs. Zhang is at that level. Mrs. Zhang's own daughter is nothing compared to Shu Yun!However, Zhu Yuanzhang could also understand that there must be a difference between a girl who depends on others and an only daughter who grew up spoiled by thousands of pampers. Shu Yun had to be sensible and make herself more useful.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it for himself, and immediately felt that Shu Yun and himself were a perfect match, or that he had saved Shu Yun to a certain extent. Thinking about it this way, he felt much more at ease!

Zhu Yuanzhang thought this way, and then said softly: "Yes, it's a pity that when I was the same age as Biaoer, I didn't meet Xiuxiu you!" When Zhu Yuanzhang was the same age as Zhu Biao, he was still in Huangjue She was a monk in the temple, and at that time, Shu Yun hadn't recovered her previous memory, and her father hadn't gone to join Guo Zixing because of killing someone!

Hearing what Zhu Yuanzhang said, Shu Yun was a little stunned. Zhu Yuanzhang is definitely not someone who likes to talk sweetly. Shu Yun was not mentally prepared for a while, but when he heard what he said, Shu Yun still had some feelings, and she also said softly. Said: "But, after all, we still met, didn't we?"

The warmth between the emperor and the empress may not have been noticed by the people below, or they may have noticed, but no one would be so blank, interrupting casually, even a few children, just laughing and talking to Zhu Biao, together with the usual The shy Zhu Wu also said several words of blessing to Zhu Biao.Zhu Biao stroked Zhu Wu's hair with a smile, and whispered that he would bring a present to Zhu Wu back, and Zhu Wu pursed his lips and laughed.

Zhu Xi always has a feeling of hatred for her sister's appearance, if she can't teach her sister a lesson in front of everyone, she will pull her sister to her side to teach her to be stronger!

And those envoys from various vassal states, seeing the princes and princesses of Daming sitting together, they all looked harmonious and friendly, but they were all a little bit heartbroken.

Daming did not conceal the future arrangements of the princes. Therefore, these vassal states are very worried about this. Even if the country is small and all kinds of things are not strong, there is a saying that it is better to be a chicken head than a phoenix tail. How good it would be for their own country to be king and hegemony, if they were really annexed by Ming Dynasty, they would at most be named a figure of marquis!Maybe she will be exiled to some backcountry like that Ming Yuzhen!

The intervention of Ming Dynasty is definitely not a good thing for the dignitaries of the vassal state, but for ordinary people, the situation is different!They have been in Daming for a long time, and the living conditions and spiritual outlook of the people of Daming are simply unbelievable for them!If Da Ming really regards him as his own countryman, then naturally he can also be protected by Da Ming and enjoy such a life!But, how do these powerful people consider the thoughts of the people at the bottom?Therefore, they only wished that the princes of Daming would fight to the death for the throne, and they didn't want Daming to focus on their country.

This time, the small countries sent envoys out, one of the important reasons is to test the next strategic goal of Ming Dynasty, and Da Ming's attitude towards these vassal states.In the past, the attitudes of various vassal states towards the suzerain of the Central Plains were actually relatively contemptuous in a sense. How can I put it, most of the suzerains of the Central Plains have a problem, which is better for face!Even if there is any conflict in private, as long as the other party's anger reaches a critical point, it will be enough to subdue in time!

In addition, even if you offend someone, there is still a tradition of survival in the Central Plains. It will not occupy your country, but will pick out one of the clan's close relatives who seems to be closer to the suzerain country, and continue to be the head of the country.

Therefore, under such circumstances, these small countries have actually developed bad habits. Sometimes they even think that children who cry will have milk. You are often disobedient, and then you are obedient. More!Compared with the suzerain country, the neighboring small countries are more threatening.After all, we are neighbors, and we know each other well. The other party thinks that you are too rich, or that your family can't afford food. Under normal circumstances, you don't have nothing to do to tease the tiger's whiskers of the suzerain country, but start with your neighbors first.

But after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the style of painting became different, and the attitude towards the following vassal states became much stronger. In the past, even a disobedient and rebellious son was still a son, and he was quite defensive. The other is the son There are too many, even if there are thorns, the father of the suzerain is too lazy to take care of them, just curse a few words, pat the head and it will pass!

Especially in the Song Dynasty, because the Song Dynasty lost the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, the elite had to stay in the north to guard against the Liao people and Xixia people. In China, there were really not many people who could fight, and the Song people lived Wealth, in fact, from top to bottom, is generally war-weary. People like Nong Zhigao can get along well. If it wasn't for bad luck, they met Di Qing, a famous general at the time, and I don't know what the trouble would be. Woolen cloth!This is still the case in the country, while the vassal states outside envy the wealth of the Song Dynasty, they actually have no fear of the Song Dynasty.Not to mention when it came to the Southern Song Dynasty, the Southern Song Dynasty was dying, who had time to care about the small countries around them, it would be good if these small countries didn't take the opportunity to bite back!

But Daming is different. Daming is much tougher towards the vassal states below. They are all fathers. This is a typical tiger father and wolf father. It doesn’t matter if the son is disobedient. , just in time to distribute the godson's property to his own son!

However, even if these vassal states want to resist, they are a little unreasonable. To put it bluntly, when Meng Yuan was in the first place, they knelt and licked too fast, and they were too immoral. Other suzerain fathers want to save face. Yuan is a careless person who wants everything!So, for Meng Yuan, how flattered each individual is!So much so that now, Daming has accepted the lessons of the past and suddenly became picky about them.

Of course, the most important thing is that the mighty Meng Yuan was defeated. The Meng Yuan royal court who once terrified them fled to the grassland with its tail between its legs, and the grassland is now trembling under the attack of Ming. If it wasn't for a little hope, or because Bei Yuan knew that Zhu Yuanzhang was not Li Shimin, he only wanted the title of Tian Khan with a good name, so that the tribes on the grassland could continue to thrive.

You can see what Zhu Yuanzhang did to those tribes who belonged to him. He directly registered Qimin as a household and changed them from nomadic to settled. Although the life of herdsmen is much better, in fact, those who have been conferred official positions or even titles In fact, the head of the tribe has lost most of their power and can only be a rich man. If they are good at management, it’s fine. The money in hand is gone!

Therefore, no matter how war-weary the herdsmen below are, the northern nobles at the top are unwilling to give up their current power. In order to ensure their wealth, they don't care about the life and death of the herdsmen below!The reason why Wang Baobao can still maintain his own influence is because he is the only one who defeated the Ming army several times.

The capital is not very far from the grassland. Even with the crown prince’s wedding, there is still a low-intensity battle ahead. There are often good news. The people in the capital are accustomed to this. Victory is the norm, stalemate is a minority, and defeat These years are almost unique.Those well-informed businessmen are too lazy to wait for the news now, but wait near the front line. Once the war is over, they rush over to buy the spoils of the Ming army, process them locally, and then transport them back. earn a fortune.

These vassal envoys don't have the intention of making money. When they hear the good news, they will only tremble and scold those in the country for their short-sightedness, thinking that it is still a hundred years ago!Today's Daming, the military power is extremely strong, and those idlers in the market are talking about it, such as a cannon in Daming, which directly knocked down half of the mountain when it was shot out. Of course there will be some exaggeration in this, but, A hole may not be without wind!

The envoys of these vassal states are now at the banquet with their own thoughts, and they don't know what to eat.Some people professed their vassals to Daming in time, and their attitudes were relatively good. Anyway, at least they didn’t offend Daming very much. At most, they would report to the lord later, so that the lord would be more submissive in the future. Don’t let Daming find a reason. !Like this kind of celestial kingdom, you have to follow the rules. If you are casual, you can attack the submissive feudal states, and you are not afraid of other feudal states.

But those feudal states that are still at the two ends of the first mouse, and even the country is actually controlled by the remnants of the Mongol Yuan army are more sad. Looking at the princes of the Ming Dynasty who have begun to grow up, they all become a little pessimistic.The number of princes in Daming is really quite a lot, and it looks like they are about to grow up!Although the rules in the Central Plains are generally [-] crowns, but in fact, if the child is promising, or if there are any special circumstances, it is very normal for teenagers to be crowned as adults.Especially on the upper level, crowning is a sign, and the more intuitive sign is actually a big marriage. Under normal circumstances, as long as the marriage is settled, the crown will be crowned before marriage!

On Daming’s side, among other things, the queen’s sons are all grown up, the second son has already settled for a marriage, and the third son of the emperor can’t be considered young now, and the princes born by other concubines are also growing up one after another. When they grow up, it can't be said that within a few years, these princes will go to establish their own feudal states one after another. Who knows where they will choose by then?

The envoys of these vassal states are worried, and a group of princes actually have their own goals. At this moment, several older princes have started to discuss together.

Zhu Xi had collected a lot of information on the feudal kingdom before, and her intentions were naturally understood by the other princes. They just wanted to think about the place in advance, and then they could make enough preparations.The sisters in the family can all have this awareness, they are brothers, they can't be rampant like a stupefied young man, right?

So, soon, several other princes who were not young began to prepare, and even tormented Zhu Yuanzhang, and copied a map from him.

Zhu Yu has nothing to say. Ever since he decided to marry Wang Mingzhu, his future has almost been settled, that is, Jinglue Grassland. If he is not capable enough, the grassland may have to share it with a few brothers, but it is obvious Well, Zhu Yu didn't want to share his temper with anyone, even Zhu Fang's half-brother, let alone other half-brothers.

Not to mention being in the royal family, even in other families, half-brothers generally don't have a deep relationship, and even half-brothers have more of a sense of competition.For matters such as the division of family property, the eldest son is naturally the priority, but if it is to divide some invisible strengths of the family, such as connections, it depends on which son is more promising!This is especially true for scholars. Aptitude does not mean that you will be more talented just because you are a descendant. Under such circumstances, the family has to use these invisible forces to be more inclined to people with more aptitude.For example, the family knows a great Confucian, but the face of the family can only allow him to accept one disciple. When the aptitude is similar, the legitimate son will naturally be given priority. !Otherwise, it would be a waste of rare resources!

It is naturally the same in the royal family. Zhu Yu and Zhu Yu have taken advantage of their own mother as the queen, and they will only get more human and material support in the future. As for the other concubines, if their father and brother still have enough strength, They can also help when opening up the feudal kingdom, but the life of other birth mothers who do not have much background will not be so easy. In order to have a higher success rate in opening up the feudal state in the future, they can only pick soft persimmons. Naturally, they can The opened vassal state will not be too big!

Zhu Xi learned from Shu Yun that although it is difficult to solve the farming problem on the grassland, the underground there is a treasure house with a lot of minerals. There are gold mines to the north, and there are also large forests. Arriving in the North Sea, although it is bitterly cold there, there are still relatively rich fishery resources. Even if Zhu Yu's generation cannot develop it, as time goes by, won't his descendants also be able to develop it?

Therefore, it can be said that Zhu Xi is bound to win the grassland, and when everyone does not understand the wealth there, he is ready to swallow it quickly.

As for Zhu Dian, he is not very interested in the grasslands, but has a lot of ideas about the Western Regions. After all, that is where the Silk Road passes. For Zhu Dang, if he occupies it, even if he sets up a card to charge there. , can make a lot of money, what's more, with Zhu Yan's brain, setting up card fees is really too low-level. If he can occupy the Western Regions, he plans to turn it into a transit point for commodity circulation. Once here, there is a lot of room for maneuvering here!And the Western Region itself is a treasure land, among other things, the spices there are all good things!Although many spices are now planted in the Central Plains, the taste and taste are still a bit worse than those in the Western Regions. After all, the climate problem is the key, and it cannot be compensated by farming technology.

As for Shu Yun, he still agrees with Zhu Yan's strategy for the Western Regions. Correspondingly, Shu Yun also said that if Zhu Yan really goes to the Western Regions, he must take corresponding responsibilities, that is to prevent the land there from continuing to desertify , It is necessary to plant afforestation on a large scale to improve the greening rate there.Otherwise, no amount of wealth would be enough to survive a few sandstorms.The reason is also very simple. Now that sea trade has risen, if the Silk Road on land is too dangerous because of the desert, it will be abandoned sooner or later. Everyone would rather go by sea. At that time, the people in the Western Regions will The importance will drop a lot.

As for Zhu Yan, he took this opportunity to bargain with Shu Yun, saying that he was actually very poor. These days, afforestation is also very expensive, and the effect is also very slow, so in a word, more money is required!Shu Yun is still very concerned about this kind of thing that can benefit future generations. Therefore, no matter whether he promised a batch of free aid or a batch of low-interest special loans, the repayment cycle is also very long, and Zhu Yan is still not finished. , Let his children and grandchildren continue to pay back, but if he is passive and sabotage, don't blame yourself for being a heartless mother!

Compared with Shu Yun's own son, Zhu Di doesn't have so many advantages.Although Zhu Di was born relatively early, he still has a certain appearance rate in Zhu Yuanzhang. His biological mother is Concubine Li Shu. That is to say, some concubines who have just entered the palace and have only been pampered for a few days can't see clearly the situation and feel how they are. In fact, the old people in the palace know that no matter how they are favored or how their children are doing, They are all inferior to the queen.

Zhu Di has been capable since he was a child. In a sense, he is also very similar to Zhu Yuanzhang. For example, his personality is relatively strong. Concubine Li Shu also has a headache for this son, but, relatively speaking, Zhu Di’s character is also relatively persevering. He has already discovered that, let alone competing with the prince, he may not be able to compete with the second and third brothers. The key is that his own mother is not strong. Although he has two sons, he is the former In the past few years, Zhu Yuanzhang could still get some attention. Now, on the one hand, there are more brothers, and on the other hand, Zhu Yuanzhang is also busy. It is rare for these sons to see their father!

Since it is almost impossible to surpass the older brother to inherit the father's position, then go out and fight by yourself!At the beginning, Zhu Di also aimed at the grassland, but now this hope is shattered, he now hates himself for not being a few years older, otherwise, that Wang Baobao's sister might not be his turn!Since the grasslands were not good enough, Zhu Di was not interested in the north any more, and he began to set his sights on the ocean.

That's right, the ocean!Compared with the continent, the ocean represents a more
