"The Duke of Liang, Lan Yuwei, is the Grand Sun Guardian. The Minister of Rites, Li Yuan, is the Grand Sun Grand Tutor. The Founding Duke, Chang Chang, is the Grand Sun Grand Tutor!”
"Respect this!"
Zhu Xiongying was still in a daze. This was the first time he had heard Zhu Yuanzhang's imperial edict, read out by Zhu Biao.
More importantly, he didn't understand what was being said.
Other than the book and treasure sent by the eunuch and the imperial grandson mentioned in the imperial edict, Zhu Xiong Ying was still in a daze.
Lan Yu, originally named Li, was promoted to Chang Sheng and knelt down one after another to thank him.
"Imperial grandson Xiong Ying, thanks for the decree!"
Hearing the voices around him, Zhu Xiongying finally came back to his senses.
"Grand Sun, step forward. The rest of you can leave. Tonight, a banquet will be held in the Hall of Heaven's Tribute! Dismissed!"
The little eunuch who was sticking close to Zhu Yuanzhang shouted loudly with his duck voice.
Zhu Xiong Ying quickly got up from the ground and walked quickly onto the imperial road. The officials left the palace and returned to the government office or home.
They were waiting for the celebration party at night.
Following the young eunuch, Zhu Xiongying passed through the Gate of Supreme Harmony, passed through the square of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, went around the palace, went through the right door at the back, took a detour to the Moon Gate, and entered the Palace of Heavenly Purity from the main door.
When Zhu Xiongying appeared in the Palace of Heavenly Purity.
Zhu Biao had left long ago. The old man was lying on the soft couch. There would never be a lack of memorials on his table.
If Zhu Xiong Ying wasn't used to such a scene, he would have been shocked.
At the age of 60, the old man had been racking his brains day and night to deal with all the matters in the country, big and small.
Zhu Biao shared some of the small matters, and the Internal Affairs Division, which later developed into the emperor's private secretary, helped to deal with them.
However, every matter that came to Old Zhu required careful consideration before making a decision.
Fortunately, paper was already widely used at this time. If it was still bamboo slips, the old man would probably die of exhaustion today and would not be able to read it.
Zhu Xiongying bowed and said softly,""Grandpa, grandson is here!"
"Come over and sit over there. Help grandpa read the reports from all over the country.”
Zhu Yuanzhang pointed to an empty seat at the side and let Zhu Xiongying sit on it.
Zhu Xiongying sat down opposite the old man without any discomfort. He picked up a memorial, flipped through it, and said,"Grandfather, ever since I used my grandson's punctuations, isn't it much easier to read reports?”
"The local officials don't have the ability to mince words.”
Zhu Xiongying looked at the familiar punctuations, his heart filled with nostalgia.
When he first entered school, he taught Yu a lot of things, making it difficult for people to understand. It was also very difficult to learn classical Chinese literature.
He could even analyze hundreds of problems in one sentence from the book. This greatly touched Zhu Xiongying and used Old Zhu to catch corruption.
Punctuation marks were used to interrupt the possibility of the officials being literal.
It also indirectly increased the efficiency of the Darming Dynasty's government affairs by more than a level.
After all, the memorial was written in black and white, with clear symbols and clear sentences. No matter how many mouths you had, there was no possibility of you quibbling.
Zhu Yuanzhang said,"Alright, hurry up and approve these memorials. Grandpa has something to tell you later!"”
Hearing this, Zhu Xiong Ying also put away his playful nature. Before the expedition, for two years, other than studying in the Eastern Palace, he followed the old master.
He watched the old man deal with government affairs day and night. In the half a year before the expedition, Zhu Xiongying gradually began to extend his hand into the old man's memorial pile.
At that time, his name was not legitimate, and his words were not smooth. He could only treat it as seeking entertainment for the old man. However, it was different now. Since Zhu Xiongying had been conferred the title of grand grandson, his status was enough to participate in military affairs.
Coincidentally, the memorial that Zhu Xiongying picked up was handed over by the Fujian governor. After carefully examining it, Zhu Xiongying said,"Imperial Grandfather, Fujian is in trouble again.”
"They plundered the Fujian coastal people, 3,000 people, burned, killed, and looted. Countless villages were destroyed, and more than 1,000 strong men and women were kidnapped.”
"After the Fujian garrison commander rushed over, the Japanese pirates took their things and people and ran away.”
Zhu Xiong Ying looked at the report and his heart was filled with anger. In the past, he was a bankrupt Japanese warrior.
Only then did Zhu Xiongying know that not all of the Japanese pirates in the early Ming Dynasty were bankrupt Japanese warriors. Most of them were Zhang Shicheng and Chen Youliang's former subordinates.
In comparison, the bankrupt warriors of the East Ocean Continent would only be able to appear on the coast of the Ming Dynasty after a hundred years.
"Ignore these defeated soldiers. Tell the Fujian officials to move in. From the coast to the residential area, stretch it for 300 miles.”
"That will do!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was already numb to the Japanese pirates and couldn't be bothered to care about them.
Zhu Xiong Ying didn't think much of it. He looked at the old man who was reviewing the memorial and said,""Grandpa, now that the threat of Northern Yuan has been eliminated, it is impossible for them to threaten the mainland within 30 years.”
"I believe that this is the best time to purge the world and the sea. If the coastal people were moved to the mainland.”
"Doesn't that mean that Big Ming is going to give up the coastal areas?”
Zhu Xiong Ying pursed his lips. As a transmigrator, he naturally knew that after 300 years, if the Great Ming Dynasty could still be passed down, it would truly threaten the Great Ming Dynasty.
They would no longer be the herdsmen of the north, but the Western barbarians from the sea.
At this time, there were already many Westerners in the Ming Dynasty. Most of them lived at the mouth of Guangzhou, Haojiang (Macau).）
It was just that in Haojiang, they would never be able to obtain a travel pass and enter the mainland.
Zhu Yuanzhang said,"To exterminate them, we need to train our navy and build large ships. Moreover, we can't do it in one battle." Once they fell into a quagmire, even a spark could pull the new dynasty into the abyss.”
"Nothing is more convenient than the ban on the sea!”
Zhu Yuanzhang said firmly.
His idea of small-scale peasant economy was influencing tens of millions of people in China. It was not that Zhu Yuanzhang's idea of small-scale peasant economy was wrong.
