In the Great Ming court, the officials did not feel much different from usual.
The emperor sat high on the throne, and the crown prince waited on him.
Li Shanchang, the left minister of the Ministry of Central Affairs, and Xu Da, the right minister,
He led the officials and stood on the left and right.
"By the will of the heavens, the emperor has decreed that Xu Da will be the Great General of the Krupp Conquest. He will lead the elites of our Ming Dynasty to the Northern Expedition and expel the Hu Krupp for our Ming Dynasty.“
"I accept your orders!"
What should have come had finally come. After the bestowment of marriage...
Xu Da finally received the Emperor's imperial edict, and he knelt before the Emperor's grace.
After receiving the imperial edict and obtaining military power,
Xu Da remembered Xu Miaoyun's instructions and took the initiative to say,"
"Your Majesty, I am leading the army outside. I really can't take care of the position of the Right Prime Minister of the Ministry of Central Affairs!”
"If the important matters of the court are delayed because of Xu Da, I will feel bad. Your Majesty, please take Xu Da's position as the Right Prime Minister and invite another talented person!”
"So that Xu Da can be at ease and lead the northern expedition for our Great Ming Dynasty!”
Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned when he heard this. Xu Da's move was good.
In fact, he had long wanted to take back Xu Da's position as the Right Prime Minister, but he still lacked an opportunity.
But Xu Da, this boorish fellow, actually directly resigned from the position of Prime Minister.
This was extremely tactful.
They were all old brothers who had been together for decades. He knew that Xu Da did not have such emotional intelligence.
"It seems that No. 5 has indeed married a good wife!”
"This idea should be the Xu family's girl's idea!”
Zhu Yuanzhang was extremely satisfied with his daughter-in-law, Xu Miaoyun.
"Duke Wei is sincere, this one is very gratified!”
"Agreed!"
Old Zhu readily agreed to Xu Da's request to resign.
It caused quite a stir in the imperial court.
The Ministry of Central Affairs was the highest level of bureaucracy in the Ming Dynasty.
The right minister of the Ministry of Central Affairs was only below the left minister, Li Shanchang.
It was the highest honor of a high-ranking official.
Xu Da stepped down from the Minister of the Ministry of Central Affairs.
Those officials who were qualified to compete for the right prime minister were all unable to remain calm.
The flames in Hu Weiyong's eyes burned fiercely.
He looked at the Imperial Censor Zhongcheng Liu Ji and Liu Bowen.
Their eyes met.
Their eyes met and they immediately looked away.
After Xu Da resigned as prime minister, the officials were uneasy.
The Crown Prince and Old Zhu were the same. The father and son had many years of tacit understanding. Zhu Biao turned around and asked,
"Ministers, do you have anything else to report?”
All the officials were disturbed by the news of Xu Da's resignation, so how could they have the mood to report it?
Old Zhu wanted this opportunity.
He gave the Crown Prince a look, and the Crown Prince said,"
"Imperial Father, your son has something to report to Imperial Father!”
"This is the content of Imperial Father's Dao discussion with Fifth Brother yesterday. I got someone to record it!”
He handed a book to Zhu Yuanzhang. It was Zhu Xi's " Agricultural Classics "!
When Zhu Yuanzhang saw this, he cheered loudly.
"The Crown Prince is quite thoughtful, isn't he?"
"Thinking about it carefully, the fifth brother actually has such a great talent. Zhen has underestimated him!”
"This guy doesn't do his job properly. He doesn't read the books of the saints and only does some evil things. However, this book is not bad!”
"The prince of my Zhu family sympathizes with the people and does not forget the people's livelihood.”
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao's performance made the ministers speechless.
These two replayed performances were too exaggerated.
Your Majesty, if you want to find a reason to let go of that demon king, just say it. There's no need to work so hard.
After the father and son finished singing the opening song, Zhu Biao asked the eunuch to distribute the agricultural classics that he had ordered overnight.
Each of the ministers and officials had a copy.
Everyone flipped it open and their expressions changed slightly.
At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, many of the officials were from poor backgrounds and knew about farming.
From Zhu Rong's perspective, the Agriculture Classic and Emperor Hongwu exchanged questions and answers as they sat down to discuss the Dao.
It led to all kinds of problems such as farming and animal husbandry.
Emperor Hongwu asked, and Fifth Prince Zhu Xi answered,
These answers actually pointed to the core.
Some techniques were the experience and wisdom of farmers over thousands of years. Non-farmers would not understand them.
These officials could tell that Zhu Rong was not spouting nonsense.
Some of the techniques were even more shocking.
For example, the castration technique of male pigs was already popular in the previous dynasty, but the Fifth Prince could actually use this technique to play a new trick.
In terms of hygiene and technique, he had improved.
Next was the post-natal treatment of the female dolphin. There were actually so many things to pay attention to.
When had the common people seen such delicate work when raising pigs?
If this book was really written by the devil,
The officials 'opinions of Zhu Rong instantly changed.
"Good!"
As Zhu Rong's father-in-law, Xu Da first carried the sedan chair for his son-in-law.
The other officials also reacted and cheered.
"Your Highness Wu Wang's book is about the path of farming!”
"If I had learned the female dolphin nursing technique from Your Highness back then, my female dolphin would not have died!”
"Your Highness, this book is too good. Your Majesty is wise. Zhu Clan's Hu Zi…"
"When I read it, I was enlightened. I think this book should be spread!”
"Enlighten the people of the world!"
Because of this book, Zhu Rong's reputation improved.
Zhu Yuanzhang was surprised by its effect, but after thinking about it, he understood.
Which of these officials was not a shrewd person?
There were several reasons why they praised Zhu Xi's book.
Firstly, this book was indeed well-written. There was no doubt about it.
Secondly, they could tell that Emperor Zhu wanted to clear the name of Old Fifth. This was partly because Old Zhu cared for his son, but also because he wanted to give Xu Da face.
Everyone knew Zhu Rong's reputation.
It was already an established fact that Xu Da's eldest daughter married Zhu Rong. If Zhu Rong still had the reputation of the devil king, it wouldn't be good for General Xu.
The ministers were well aware of this.
As for the third point,
That was because Xu Da had stepped down from the position of Right Prime Minister. This was a major event that could affect the entire situation.
This was not only related to the replacement of a plane.
Instead, it was the drastic change in the entire civil service group and the local forces.
If he did not please the Emperor now, when else would he please?
After Zhu Yuanzhang saw through this, he thanked Xu Da even more.
He was prepared to carry the sedan chair for his son. If Xu Da had not resigned from his official position, the effect would definitely not have been so good.
Since this was a rare opportunity, Zhu Yuanzhang was prepared to give Zhu Rong a push.
"Imperial Father, please give this book a name!”
At the critical moment, Zhu Biao gave Zhu Yuanzhang a way out.
Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a moment and said,
"How about 'Agricultural Classics'?"
For a moment, the flattering voices instantly quieted down.
Agricultural Classics?
Scriptures. What was His Majesty trying to do?
He wouldn't offer it to her son, Feng Sheng, would he?
The officials finally understood what Old Zhu was thinking.
The head of the officials, the Left Minister of the Ministry of Central Affairs, the Duke of Korea, Lee Shan Chang, walked out.
"This humble subject feels that this name is inappropriate!”
As soon as he spoke, all the officials stood up and knelt down in unison.
"I agree!"
Old Zhu's move was actually blocked.
His anger rose.
