Wenhua Hall.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at an imperial edict.
The gist of it was that Xu Miaoyun was to be the Princess Consort of Yan.
There were also many words of praise.
He praised Xu Miaoyun for her talent, intelligence, chastity and demure.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at it and saw that there was no problem.
"Go to the Xu Manor and announce the decree."
"Understood!"
The people from the Imperial Academy immediately took their leave and went to stamp the imperial edict.
After that, a special eunuch would go to the Xu Manor to announce the decree.
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was behind the dragon table, picked up a memorial.
He looked at it.
On it was written that the cultivated land in Yangzhou had been completely restored.
The local magistrate, Yang Xian, was leading the people to reclaim new farmland.
"Not bad!"
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled.
At the beginning of Hongwu, all kinds of industries were waiting to be built. The fields of the thirteen prefectures and counties were barren and the people were scattered.
Currently, the cultivated land in various places was rapidly recovering.
"Your Highness! Be careful!"
Zhu Bai ran into the Hall of Cultural Splendor.
Putting down the memorial, Zhu Yuanzhang looked up and saw that it was his son.
The eunuch behind him immediately knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, the little prince has been clamoring to see you!”
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand.
"It's fine, Bai 'er. Come over to Imperial Father!”
The eight-year-old Zhu Bai immediately ran to the front of the dragon table with small steps.
However, he did not sit in Zhu Yuanzhang's arms like the other little princes.
Instead, he stood in front of the dragon table.
"Bai 'er, why are you looking for Imperial Father?"
Zhu Bai bowed to the other party seriously.
"Imperial Father, I want to leave the palace!"
Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang was a little puzzled.
"Out of the palace? Where are you going?"
"Hanlin Academy! It was said that there was the most complete library in the capital.
Father, please allow Bai 'er to go there to read.”
Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang understood.
The Imperial Academy was also within the Imperial City.
The so-called Imperial City was divided into two parts.
In front of them were the offices of the Ministry of Central Affairs and the six ministries.
Behind them were the Hall of Heaven, Hall of Culture, and Hall of Martial Valor.
There were also the emperor and the concubines 'chambers.
Zhu Yuanzhang thought of something.
"Hanlin Academy, who told you about this place?”
"Father, it's Song shi.
When Song shi was inspecting Bai Er's homework, he mentioned it by chance.
Bai 'er had finished reading most of the books in the palace.”
Zhu Yuanzhang was quite interested in this.
"You've finished reading them all?
Were there many books in the palace?”
Zhu Bai nodded.
"Most of them have already been read, which is why Bai 'er wants to go to the Imperial Academy.”
Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it and did not object.
"Alright, go to the Imperial Academy and let those old scholars take a look.
My Zhu family is very cultured!"
As he spoke, Zhu Yuanzhang raised his hand and asked someone to bring over a token.
He then instructed.
Within the Imperial City, Zhu Bai could enter and exit freely.
……
After obtaining permission, Zhu Bai swaggered around.
They arrived at the Imperial Academy.
It only made the Hanlin scholars here a little confused.
What was such a young prince doing in the Imperial Academy?
"Greetings, Your Highness.
I wonder why the little prince is here!”
The one who spoke was a scholar of the Imperial Academy, a fifth-grade official, Cheng Shang.
Although he was only a fifth-grade official, the officials of the six departments and third-grade officials met him.
They all had to greet Lord Cheng with cupped fists.
"I'm here to read!"
Zhu Bai said straightforwardly.
The other party suddenly realized and seemed to remember.
The other party was the Twelfth Prince, who had been intelligent since he was young.
"Your Highness, which book do you want to read?
We can make a copy for you and send it over.”
This was because many of the books here were unique.
Therefore, Cheng Shang did not dare to let the other party take him away.
He was afraid that the only copy would disappear.
Zhu Bai shook his head.
"I read a lot of books, and you guys can't copy all of them.
From now on, I'll come over every afternoon to read.”
Hearing this, Cheng Shang heaved a sigh of relief.
It was just reading, nothing serious.
"If that's the case, please do as you please, Little Highness.
Men, bring His Highness to the Book House!"
Then, a young man walked over.
He brought Zhu Bai and the eunuch he brought with him to the Hanlin Academy's library.
After a while, Zhu Bai was shocked.
He looked at the vast sea of books in front of him.
This was the first time he had seen so many books!
"As expected of the Hanlin Academy!"
Hanlin, who was leading the way, also said proudly.
"Your Highness, the entire capital, no.
In the entire Great Ming, there was no place with a richer collection of books than here.”
Zhu Bai casually took a book from the side.
They were all precious and unique copies.
Before he transmigrated, Zhu Bai had majored in literature.
When they saw these books that had been lost in the future, their eyes lit up.
"Go, prepare a pot of tea for me!"
"Understood!"
The eunuch behind him immediately cupped his hands and left.
That young Hanlin looked at Zhu Bai as if he really liked reading.
He also said a few more words.
"Your Highness, I have a book list here.”
When Zhu Bai heard this, his interest was immediately piqued.
He took the piece of paper from the other party's hand.
It could be seen that the other party had studied Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism.
"What's your name?"
Zhu Bai asked curiously.
the other party said casually.
"Your Highness, I am Wang Gen."
Zhu Bai nodded thoughtfully, then asked the other party to find ten books for him.
He found a place and started reading.
This action attracted the attention of many Hanlin scholars.
