Chapter 190: The Scholarly Theory That Made Xu Jie Lose All Face

Chapter 192 Changping Experience, Father and Son of the Heavenly Family (Subscription Request)
In the wing room of the academy.

Although Lu Fang had a smile on her face.

But in his heart, he felt somewhat indignant for his master.

For so many years, the master has been ruling the country without any effort, working day and night, and the power of the country has been given to his ministers.

But even so.

If the master wants to leave the palace, he has to hide his identity secretly.

Even if it's in the spotlight.

The ministers could only pretend that they had not seen it and could not step forward to perform the duties of a minister.

Thinking of this.

Lu Fang's eyes couldn't help but turn red.

Jiajing, who had just finished giving his orders with excitement on his face.

But he frowned and looked at Lu Fang.

Just a glance.

The emperor, who had spent his entire life trying to guess people's minds, understood the thoughts of the old slave around him.

Jiajing snorted and curled his lips.

"Why are you crying?"

"Today is a happy day, why don't you return to the palace and draft the decree and send it to me!"

Say it.

Jiajing glanced at Prince Yu, who was sitting in front of him but still seemed a little timid.

Lu Fang nodded, rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand, then bowed and left.

Wait for Lu Fang to walk out of the room.

It's a harmonious atmosphere outside.

When everyone saw this chief steward of the inner court, they pretended not to see him.

The officials who had originally planned to write a memorial to impeach Yan Shaoting after returning to the city today no longer had this plan.

Since the three old gentlemen Nie Bao are determined to stay in Changping Academy.

Changping Academy also wants to recruit students from outside.

Even if Yan Shaoting's last two sentences were meant to serve as a warning to the academy, do the children of these families lack wealth, fame, and honor?

It's just that young people want to go a step further.

Very reasonable.

As Xu Wei introduced other places worth visiting in Changping to everyone, many people had already walked out of the academy and were wandering around Changping in groups of three or five.

There are also many people who are eager to see Changping today with their own eyes.

Among them, the most prominent one was the Minister of Revenue Gao Yao.

He left the academy with a group of officials from the Ministry of Revenue.

He wanted to calculate carefully how much taxes the court could collect from Changping if Changping continued to operate as it is now.

If the fiscal and tax increases.

Although the Changping law cannot be implemented throughout the country, as long as one or two of it can be implemented elsewhere, the court and the Ministry of Revenue will also see a significant increase in financial and tax revenue.

There are also some officials who are different from Gao Yao.

He walked out of the academy with the intention of learning how to govern the people, wanting to find out more.

After all, no matter how high-ranking the officials in the capital are, they are still not as powerful as local officials. Even a small county magistrate can be said to be a frontier official or a marquis of a hundred miles.

"Changping experience?"

An official from the Ministry of Revenue muttered something in a low voice, tilted his head and looked sideways at Shangshu Gao Yao who was walking on Shuyuan Street.

Gao Yao nodded: "It can be said that this is Changping's experience. Although we cannot use all of it, as long as one or two of them can be used by my Ministry of Revenue elsewhere, it will surely increase the national treasury by a lot!"

The officer in charge moved his lips twice.

Everyone looked at them differently.

But people have already reacted.

Yan Shaoting, who has experience in Changping, may really be unlikely to be the same as them.

If there is no peace in one place, how can there be peace in the world?

Prime ministers came from prefectures and counties.

With Changping in his hands, Yan Shaoting's future will be bright.

Of course, the premise is that he does not do anything that would anger God and people and cause him to be ostracized by the whole court.

People walking out of the academy.

Everyone has their own thoughts to a certain extent.

And there were not many people left in the academy.

Naturally, several people from the cabinet stayed here. Only one of the six ministries and five temples, the Minister of War Yang Bo, remained on the scene.

But before Yang Bo could sit down.

Yan Song then looked at Yang Bo.

"The Ministry of War."

Yang Bo, who was about to sit down, stood up immediately: "Lord Yan."

Yan Song looked at Gao Gong, Yuan Wei and Xu Jie who had a sullen look on his face.

Finally, he asked, "Is it against the laws of the country for Changping to build its own militia?"

Hear this.

Yang Bo's eyes flickered slightly.

Is it the Changping civilian army that currently has 600 people but can be expanded to 3,000 if something happens?
Yang Bo thought about it for a while, then said, "There is nothing wrong with that. The villagers have established a militia for self-protection, which is not against the law. As long as Changping does not hide armor, crossbows, and firearms privately, the Ministry of War is actually willing to see such things happen."

Yan Song hummed and looked away.

The Ministry of War would naturally like to see the existence of the Changping People's Zhuangtu.

This was considered spontaneous training by the common people. Once the imperial court needed it, it only needed a transfer order to recruit these people into the army.

The training of the militia is different from that of the military, and they will not be comparable to ordinary conscripted soldiers.

Yan Shaoting and Xu Wei were waiting on Nie Bao and the three old masters as they sat down.

He glanced at the old man Yan who was questioning the Ministry of War and smiled slightly in his heart.

The old man was dealing with some problems that he thought might have hidden dangers in front of everyone.

Yan Song then asked: "Does Changping violate the imperial court's laws? Are there any irregularities in the fields and factories?"

After saying this, Old Yan glanced around.

I didn’t see anyone from the Ministry of Revenue or the Ministry of Personnel.

Gao Gong then looked at the people present.

Then he said, "There is no encroachment in Changping. The summer and autumn taxes and various miscellaneous taxes are paid on time. The people obey the orders and perform corvée labor. There is nothing wrong with the rules."

After saying that.

Gao Gong glanced at Yan Shaoting sitting opposite him with a deep gaze.

The people in Changping are now becoming more simple and honest, and their common people are becoming more prosperous.

Can these things be copied elsewhere?

Gao Gong had more endless fantasies in his mind, and was somewhat unwilling to be entangled with the court all day long.

I thought about it.

However, Gao Gong rejected this idea in his heart.

The country's officialdom is not prosperous.

Even if there is a perfect method that has been around for thousands of years, it is still difficult to implement and it is impossible for it to last long.

As he was thinking, Gao Gong lowered his head, and a few sharp rays of light flashed in his eyes, with murderous intent in his eyes.

Xu Jie, who was sitting nearby, subconsciously glanced sideways at Gao Gong who was lowering his head.

His brows gradually furrowed, and a bit of doubt emerged. Gao Suqing was a little bit wrong at this moment.

Xu Jie shook his head, but couldn't tell what was wrong.

Seeing that no one had any objection.

Yan Song then looked towards the room with the closed door.

After a moment of silence.

He patted the arm of Yan Shifan beside him.

Yan Shifan's face was flushed today. Even though he had left the city early in the morning to rush to Changping, and it was already past noon, he did not feel tired at all.

I saw the old man greet me.

Yan Shifan looked at the old man with a flushed face: "Dad?"

Yan Song grabbed his son's arm and said, "I am tired. Help me to go to the other courtyard to rest for a while before returning to the city."

Yan Shifan nodded.

Then he helped the old man to stand up. He first glanced at everyone present, his eyes full of pride.

Except for the three old masters Nie Bao, all those present were cabinet ministers and six ministers.

Although my official position, Yan Shifan, is not as high as yours.

But my son, Yan Shifan, is better than your sons.

After a killing look.

Yan Shifan then bent over and helped the old man walk towards the courtyard behind the academy.

Xu Wei also walked up to Xu Jie, Gao Gong and others.

"My fellow ministers and superiors, if you want to take a rest, there is a monastery over here in the academy. If you want to go out for a walk, I will call a few boys to lead the way for you."

Seeing that Yan Shaoting had no more new tricks to come up with, everyone walked out of the academy under the leadership of Xu Wei, full of doubts and confusion.

Xu Jie declined Xu Wei's offer to ask a few children from Changping to lead the way, and instead asked his second son Xu Kun to lead him into the crowded Changping.

Yuan Wei, on the other hand, changed his attitude today and looked at Gao Gong: "Lord Gao, would you like to go for a walk together?"

Although Gao Gong was a little surprised, he still nodded in agreement.

The two of them also disappeared under Xu Wei's gaze.

Xu Wei could only shrug his shoulders and tilt his head to look at Zhou Goudan and Ma Xiaoer who jumped out from the corner.

He snorted, "Don't blame me. The higher the official position, the more stingy they are!"

Zhou Goudan, Ma Xiaoer and others looked somewhat disappointed.

I feel sorry for not being able to take on more tour companion orders.

But soon, the children had a new idea and joined the crowd, cheering.

Wait for Xu Wei to turn around and return to the academy.

Then they saw that the three old masters, Nie Bao, Wang Ji and Qian Dehong, had surrounded Yan Shaoting.

now.

Yan Shaoting in the eyes of these three people.

That is a treasure!

Mr. Yangming's lifelong pursuit and tracing of the origins is exactly what Changping is like today.

The unity of knowledge and action.

Among the two capitals and thirteen provinces of the Ming Dynasty, only Changping can be seen as the origin.

Although the three old masters were in their seventies or eighties, they looked like they were in their prime. They were full of energy and talked to Yan Shaoting about the philosophy of mind and how Changping had become what it is today under their leadership.

Xu Wei took a look and smiled.

Standing quietly aside, without saying a word.

And in the room on the other side.

As the child cried, Concubine Li hurriedly carried the little kid out of the room, and Lu Yi followed behind her.

After the two came out.

There is no need for Yan Shaoting to greet him.

Lu Yi pointed to the road leading to the back of the academy and said, "The back is the courtyard with beautiful scenery. You can take a rest there."

in this way.

Only Jiajing and Prince Yu, father and son, were left in the side room.

Zhu Zaigui was a little frightened.

Such a scene is against the rules.

Jiajing looked amused and asked calmly, "Are you afraid?"

There was a pop.

Zhu Zaigui slid down from the chair and knelt on the ground.

He lowered his head and said, "I dare not offend the majesty of heaven or offend Your Majesty."

"The ruler is the ruler, the subject is the subject, the father is the father, the son is the son."

Jiajing muttered in a low voice, with a bit of sigh in his eyes, and...

There is also a bit of sadness.

However, Zhu Zaigui remembered the rule that the two kings should not meet each other, as well as what it represented.

He kowtowed and said, "I, your servant, please withdraw."

After sighing for a while, Jiajing looked down at his son kneeling in front of him.

He shook his head: "Get up, let...let me take a good look."

Zhu Zaigui's heart trembled.

He knelt on the ground and raised his head uneasily.

Then he slowly stood up.

Looking at Prince Yu who stood up, Jiajing's eyes trembled for a moment, and then he said, "Take a few steps forward."

Zhu Zaigui moved his feet and took a few steps forward.

Jiajing raised his head and looked at his son walking towards him.

After a while.

He then smiled faintly.

Then he sighed and said, "This year... I'm twenty-six..."

Zhu Zaigui's eyes flashed and there was some sadness on his face.

He nodded and said, "Replying to... Father, I am twenty-six years old."

Jiajing's lips trembled slightly.

He fixed his eyes on his son standing in front of him.

There were some things he wanted to say.

But I don’t know how to start.

In the wing room.

Father and son.

One is sitting and the other is standing.

One looks up, the other looks down.

Silence...

…………

Note: In March of the 28th year of the Jiajing reign, Crown Prince Zhu Zaigang, who had just held his coming-of-age ceremony, died suddenly. Emperor Shizong blamed it on the fact that he had appointed a crown prince too early, so he did not appoint another one and the crown prince no longer met.
