Zhu Yuanzhang returned to Fengtian Hall.
When he returned, it was already evening. Looking at the neatly stacked memorials on his desk and the memorial to Zhu Huai, he was deep in thought.
"Chen Hong."
Zhu Yuanzhang informed the outside world and Chen Hong walked in.
"Who came today?"
" Earlier," Chen Hong said respectfully," Grand Sun brought a bowl of noodles to look for the Emperor. He didn't find it, so he packed up the memorial and left."”
Zhu Yuanzhang replied.
Then, he said,"Go and summon Fu Youwen, Minister of Revenue, Zhan Hui, Minister of Civil Affairs, and Shen Wei, Minister of Works, for an audience."”
"Yes."
From the twenty-first year to the twenty-fourth year of Hongwu, there was no Minister of Revenue, and the Ministry of Revenue was headed by Fu Youwen, the assistant minister.
The cabinet system had yet to be fully established, and Zhu Yuanzhang's subordinate power institutions were led by the six ministries.
As for the director of ceremonies, he was even more distant. Zhu Yuanzhang hated eunuchs. He hated them very much. Nowadays, eunuchs were illiterate and had no power.
After a while, the high-ranking official of the Three Departments Hall walked over.
"Greetings, Your Majesty. Long live the Emperor…"
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand." What is Wan Sui? His son is already dead. Don't talk nonsense. Let's talk. You guys listen. Whether it's feasible or not, give your opinions."”
The three lords exchanged glances. The more casual Zhu Yuanzhang was, the better his mood was.
"The north of the Huai River is flooded, and there are countless refugees.”
"The Suzhou government is building the Xin 'an River, so your Ministry of Works needs a large number of corvee.”
Zhu Yuanzhang asked.
He had always been like this. He never spoke nonsense to his subjects.
Then, he compiled what Zhu Huai had told him into a book. The countermeasures for Guanzhong and Jiangnan were written in it, and with Zhu Yuanzhang's completion, a complete plan was born.
"Take a look. This is a countermeasure.”
Fu Youwen, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, hurriedly took it and the three officials read it together.
There was a series of plans for river management, such as opening up the sea to provide benefits, building a river embankment, and building a Merit Monument.
There was also the construction of city walls for the refugees and the settlement measures to replace the disaster with work.
After the three of them finished reading, their expressions changed slightly.
Every single measure had been taken into consideration, taking into account all possibilities and precautions.
"This…"
Fu Youwen looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and hesitated.
"Just say it," Zhu Yuanzhang said.
Fu Youwen pondered for a moment and said," I think that building the Merit Monument and encouraging the people to participate in the river management, replacing the construction of the city walls and even the river sand with the labor of the refugees, this strategy is all to the point. It is desirable.”
After a pause, Fu Youwen continued,"As for opening the sea, I'm afraid it will lead to disaster. I think this is a big mistake."?”
The dynasty strictly prohibited the opening of the sea. On one hand, it was to prevent Chen Youliang and Fang Guozhen from participating in the disturbance of the southeast. On the other hand, it was to prevent countries like Japan from plotting against them.
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned slightly.
This brief change in expression was captured by the Minister of Official Personnel Affairs, Zhan Hui.
He smiled and said," Your Majesty, I don't think this memorial will do more harm than good as Lord Fu said. Instead, I think that the opening of the sea for a short period of time will not cause any trouble. It will encourage the people to participate in the construction of the river sand and even bring additional income to the people of the southeast.”
"As long as we have the Department for Purging Officials strictly manage it, there won't be too many accidents.”
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.
Fu Youwen was shocked and looked at Zhan Hui in a daze. This old thing really knew how to read people's expressions!
It was unknown who wrote this memorial. It seemed that the old master was going to put it in an important position.
Although there were some risks involved, it had to be said that these memorials were very desirable. Moreover, they were able to give solutions in such an orderly manner. They were indeed talented.
There were many things in the memorial that Fu Youwen did not expect.
"Dare I ask the emperor who wrote this memorial?”Fu Youwen said.
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled knowingly, and his face was filled with pride."Our grandson."
To be able to receive such a high evaluation from these mainstays without knowing anything was enough to show how high Zhu Huai's standards were.
Although many of these memorials had been patched up by Zhu Yuanzhang, this did not hinder the core idea of these memorials!
What?
It's actually his great-grandson?
Fu Youwen hurriedly said,"The Imperial College often says that Taisun Yunwen's intelligence is rare in the world. Today, this lowly subject has experienced it and is truly impressed."”
Zhu Yuanzhang stared at him.”
The moment he finished speaking, the three Division Heads were instantly dumbstruck.
Not Zhu Yunwen?
Among them, Zhan Hui's expression was the happiest. The excitement in his heart was already overflowing with words!
If it wasn't Zhu Yunwen, who else could it be? The other imperial grandchildren in the Eastern Palace were still young, but only…Zhu Yunyan was still alive!
Zhan Hui was a hidden political asset that Zhu Biao had left for the direct line, so he naturally favored the Chang family.
"I really didn't expect Taisun Yunli to have such achievements.”Zhan Hui said.
Zhu Yuanzhang rolled his eyes at him.”
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand." It's done. Since the memorial is acceptable, you can go and do your job."”
"Yes!"
The few of them left with different expressions on their faces. They were deeply puzzled and puzzled.
It wasn't Zhu Yunwen or Zhu Yunyan? Who was that? Could it be the other kids in the Eastern Palace?
How old were they? How could they have such an opinion? This was impossible!
That was strange!
Everyone walked away with doubts in their hearts.
……
Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy, genuinely happy!
Just as he was about to drink his tea, Chen Hong came over and said,""Imperial Lord, Imperial Academy scholars Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai have reported that Grand Sun has not entered the academy for a day.”
Hmm?
Zhu Yuanzhang put down his tea and looked at Chen Hong."Why?"
Chen Hong wiped the sweat off his forehead." I deserve to die. I dare not say it."”
Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at him indifferently.
Chen Hong was drenched in sweat." Reporting to the Emperor, my great-grandson has locked himself in his study. He has been reading Buddhist scriptures for the entire day and hasn't eaten for the entire day."”
"Nonsense!"
Zhu Yuanzhang snapped,"You don't study hard in school, but you study those crooked things. What do you think?"”
"Grand Sun said that it's almost time for the Crown Prince to turn 37. He wants to pray for the Crown Prince." Chen Hong hurriedly said.”
Zhu Yuanzhang's stern expression slowly relaxed and was replaced by an inexplicable emotion.
He sighed." Bring us to the Eastern Palace. Prepare a bowl of food and follow us there."”
"This child, sigh, silly child." Zhu Yuanzhang's face changed into a gentle expression.
