Wuying Hall.
Zhu Yunwen did not lie down drunk. Instead, she flipped through the memorials from various places. Fortunately, there were no major events during this period of time. It could be said that the country was prosperous and the people were peaceful.
Jiang An walked over and reported,"Your Majesty, Imperial Steed Supervisor Zheng He is here."”
Zhu Yunwen raised his eyebrows slightly and asked Jiang An to invite him over.
Zheng He entered the palace and after bowing, he said,""Your Majesty, Longjiang Shipyard can indeed build long-distance ships. However, the number of ship craftsmen is still too small. If you want to build a large ship and form a scale, I'm afraid it will take several years.”
Zhu Yunwen nodded slightly and said,"I have ordered the mobilization of ship craftsmen. At the same time, we will set up shipyards in Suzhou, Songjiang, Zhenjiang, and other places. We will mobilize the strength of the country to build a long-distance fleet." The Duke of Cao went south to prepare for the construction of ships.”
Zheng He quickly said," Your Majesty has thought it through. I have no problems with it. I can set sail in three years!"”
Zhu Yunwen frowned. Three years was too long.
However, the voyage was a complicated matter, and he could not rush it.
"I appoint you as the deputy commander of the navy. You can choose ten thousand soldiers from the navy to build a long-distance voyage fleet. The imperial court's warships will be mainly the blessing ships, so it shouldn't be a problem for them to go to Nanyang. Tell Navy Commander Chen Xuan that I allow you to choose anyone.”
"In addition, do a good job in water training. When the time is right, go into the sea and head south to Guangzhou to transport goods back and forth. If you encounter something that cannot be resolved, come find me directly.”
Zhu Yunwen arranged seriously.
Zheng He thanked him excitedly.
His Majesty had already considered everything that he had considered. What other requests did he have?
Prepare for the voyage!
Zhu Yunwen lowered her head and continued to deal with the memorials. She seemed to feel something and saw Jiang An staring in the direction of Zheng He. She asked,"What are you daydreaming about?"
Jiang An was suddenly shocked and hurriedly knelt down to beg for mercy.
"Alright, zhen only asked a question. Just answer properly. There's no need to kneel for no reason.”
Zhu Yunwen frowned.
Jiang An quickly stood up and said,"I only saw Zheng's palm print and he could supervise the construction of ships and command troops. I was envious." He never thought that a crippled person could also make contributions.”
"In this world, everyone has their place." Zhu Yunwen laughed. Your position is to accompany me, and his position is to open up a new route.”
Jiang An naturally understood this.
After Zhu Yunwen dealt with the memorial, he arranged for someone to deliver it to the General Administration Department. Then he stretched his tired body and walked out of the Hall of Martial Valor with Jiang An's company.
The bright moon hung high in the sky, and the bright moonlight quietly shone on the Great Ming Palace.
The quiet and cool autumn night made people feel comfortable.
Ma Enhui slowly walked over and said to Zhu Yunwen who was staring at the moon,"Is Your Majesty in the mood?"
"Elegant?"
Zhu Yunwen looked at Ma Enhui bitterly.
Ma Enhui was a little tipsy. She looked at Zhu Yunwen in a daze and said,"Isn't Your Majesty planning to add a good story during such a festive season?”
Zhu Yunwen shook his head helplessly and looked at Ming Yue. He thought for a while. This was not the Tang and Song Dynasties where he could plagiarize Li Bai and Su Shi's poems and pretend to be romantic.
In the Ming and Qing dynasties, there were not many famous poets like the Tang and Song dynasties. For example, the three great poets of the early Ming dynasty, Song Lian…Not many people knew about them.
Later on, Li Menglong, Wang Shizhen, Li Zhi, Gu Yanwu, etc., although their poems were passed down to the world, Zhu Yunwen did not memorize many of them. However, there was a piece by Wang Shizhen that suited this situation.
Zhu Yunwen shamelessly used it. The Ming Dynasty was his, so Wang Shizhen's poems were nothing. Besides, Wang Shizhen was born more than a hundred years ago…
"Pure and bright, how much do you know about him?
Don't talk about the weather, let's enjoy the good season in the world.
Good season, hope to get every year, often see the Mid-Autumn Festival.”
Zhu Yunwen said slowly.
Ma Enhui looked at Zhu Yunwen in surprise. Although she knew that he had some talent, she was still a little surprised to hear such a philosophical poem.
"It's a good season, and I wish to see the Mid-Autumn Moon every year. ChenQie also has this wish."
Ma Enhui said happily.
Zhu Yunwen took Ma Enhui and looked at the moon. It was round at the moment, but in a few days, it would be broken. The lights were half-extinguished, and the wine was slightly tipsy.
On the dragon bed, Zhu Yunwen stretched out her hand and gently pushed away the hair on Ma Enhui's face. She looked at Ma Enhui's charming eyes and smiled lightly."It's been hard on you during this period of time."
Ma Enhui was in charge of the harem, and it wasn't easy every day.
Other than accompanying the empress dowager and taking care of her son, she also had to investigate the affairs of the various prisons, departments, and departments. The implementation of the new policies in the harem had brought many new problems, and Ma Enhui was not at ease with these things. She had to personally investigate them.
"I heard that you beat the manager of the laundry bureau 30 times. What made you angry?”
Zhu Yunwen knew that Ma Enhui had a gentle personality and would usually not get angry.
Ma Enhui leaned on Zhu Yunwen's arm and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. With the temper of a little girl, she said,"Your Majesty proposed a new policy for the harem, and this concubine will naturally carry it out. The other supervisors did not make any mistakes and earnestly implemented it. However, the manager of the laundry bureau went against the rules and pocketed 90% of the money that was originally allocated to the harem. Every day, the dishes were only stained with a fishy smell and not a single bit of meat could be seen.”
"Not to mention this, what's even more abominable is that she actually dared to suppress the palace maid's leave. Unless the palace maid takes out a leave payment of no less than two taels of silver, she will only arrange for the palace maid to rest. Without the leave payment, even if the palace maid dies of exhaustion, she will not be able to rest for a day. His Majesty said, should such a steward be beaten up?”
Zhu Yunwen's eyes turned slightly cold, but then she calmed down and said,"The laundry bureau is next to the Desheng Gate, not within the palace walls. With only a palace wall separating them, the steward dares to deceive his superiors and bully his subordinates like this and act recklessly. The Ming Empire is so vast, how many people deceive their superiors and bully their subordinates? How many people do evil things? I am kept in the dark and think that the world is clear and the people are safe.”
"It is the blessing of the world for Your Majesty to worry about the world. He believed that with His Majesty's great talent and strategy, he would be able to recreate the golden age of the Han and Tang Dynasties.”
Ma Enhui's heart ached as she boasted.
Zhu Yunwen smiled helplessly and reached out to hug Ma Enhui, her eyes full of spring.
When the night was quiet and Ma Enhui fell asleep peacefully, Zhu Yunwen was still thinking about how to create a truly usable supervision system in this era and truly understand the sufferings of the bottom of the Ming Dynasty.
All officials would conceal information.
In the future, with the advancement of the telephone and the internet, there would be people who would not report the death of dozens of people in a mine accident, let alone Great Ming, who was extremely backward in the spread of information!
If there was a problem at the local level, the officials would be able to conceal it accurately.
The mountains were high and the emperor was far away. In a place where no one could control, a county magistrate could do whatever he wanted and prey on the people.
The people of Ming Dynasty were honest farmers. As long as they had a bite to eat, they would not rebel. Even if they were bullied until their clothes were tattered, their first thought was not to kill the dog officials, but to go begging. Walking into the depths of history, one could truly feel that "prosperity, the people suffer; Death, the suffering of the people.
From Zhang Yanghao's point of view, the commoners had never had a good life. That was why they sighed with emotion!
If it was in the past, Zhu Yunwen would only evaluate the level of Zhang Yanghao's poems. But now, he was the emperor of Ming Dynasty. He needed to completely solve the problem of " prosperity, people suffering "!
It was a vast territory of more than nine million square kilometers and had a population of more than 60 million. There were many problems, and most of them were concentrated at the bottom. From the lessons of history, when a feudal dynasty collapsed, the first to collapse was usually the bottom.
Whether it was Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's uprising, Old Zhu's begging, Li Zicheng's loss of his job, or Old Jiang's relocation, there were problems with the management of the lower levels.
If the bottom management was not good, it would be unpopular.
Without the hearts of the people, there would be no long-term state.
This was the iron law of historical development.
