Ming Dynasty: My Brother-in-law is Zhu Youxiao - Chapter 465

  Chapter 465 Educate the new emperor, leave the capital and town Lushun!

   Whoosh!

   Whoosh!

   Whoosh!

   This day is the New Year’s Eve in the seventeenth year of Tianqi.

  There are fireworks blooming inside and outside the capital city, as if they will never dissipate, making the whole sky red all the time.

  Zhang Gui stood under the blossoming fireworks, watching silently.

   After tucking the quilts for the children, Shang Jinghui also walked to the courtyard, came to Zhang Gui, and asked, “Husband, are you thinking about leaving Beijing soon?”

  Zhang Gui smiled slightly: “No, I’m just recalling the past of more than ten years. At the same time, I also feel a little bit emotional. One day, I will leave the capital in this capacity. This is a good way!”

  Shang Jinghui also smiled.

  Suddenly, Shang Jinghui asked: “Is Lushun colder than the capital?”

Zhang Gui smiled and said: “We won’t stay in Lushun all the time. We can go anywhere except inside the pass. My husband has already let our people set up industries in Nanyang, Japan, Korea, Jiaozhi and Mughal. In the future, we will go to Australia in the south and Europa in the west to set up industries, especially Europa, where we will also build our castle! In this way, there is a place to escape the heat in summer and a place to escape the cold in winter, so you can go to different places throughout the year .”

  Shang Jinghui chuckled.

  Suddenly, Shang Jinghui asked: “What about Guannei, can’t Guannei go back?”

  Zhang Gui frowned.

  Shang Jinghui smiled suddenly and said, “If you can’t go back, you can’t go back. After all, if your husband goes back to the pass, the world will be uneasy.”

“Who said that! Why don’t I want my uncle and aunt to never return to the pass? I have already decreed that my uncle can travel around the pass at any time, and he doesn’t have to come to Beijing when he is called. I don’t worry that my uncle will suddenly raise troops to clear the king. “

  At this time, the voice of the new emperor suddenly appeared in the courtyard.

   Zhang Gui looked back, and saw Wei Zhongxian, who had gray temples, explaining beside the new emperor: “The emperor doesn’t want the old slave to report, so he has to come quietly.”

  After hearing this, Zhang Gui and Shang Jinghui saluted the new emperor: “Your Majesty!”

   “Free gift!”

After the new emperor said that, he gave Zhang Gui and Shang Jinghui a family gift, and said: “Today’s New Year’s Eve, it is uncle’s place that is more lively, unlike in the palace, the mother and queen are happy, and on New Year’s Eve, they are only reading scriptures behind closed doors. , father is only thinking about his telegram. It’s just that after my uncle leaves Beijing in the future, this Dongping palace will also be deserted.”

  Zhang Gui smiled and said: “Your Majesty, when you have children in a few years, it will naturally become lively. At that time, the Empress Dowager will not only think about reading scriptures.”

  The new emperor just smiled.

Immediately, the new emperor said solemnly: “I am here today, one is to spend the New Year with my uncle, and the other is to talk to him again. I am new to the throne, and I am still uneasy about ruling in the future. After all, the current situation of Ming Dynasty is very It can be said that the past dynasties are comparable, and it can be said to be unique, so historical materials are also difficult to use as a reference, not to mention that the situation of the world is not only in Kyushu, but also in the universe. Although the father is still healthy, he is obsessed with the study of practical skills, I dare not Excuse me, so I still want my uncle to give me a lesson so that I will know how to govern in the future.”

   “Your Majesty knows that His Majesty didn’t come here just to celebrate the New Year with us!”

   Zhang Gui said with a smile, walked into the house, and said: “Go to my study.”

  Shang Jinghui said at this time: “I’ll let them make tea.”

“Mr. Fan (Fan Jingwen) they just let me know how to employ people, want my relatives to be virtuous, and far from villains. Of course, what they said is also reasonable. The key is how to define the virtuous and the unvirtuous, and what standard do I use to define? Uncle Teach me to look at things dialectically, from multiple angles, and to know that different standards will lead to different conclusions.”

“When I was in power recently, I found that this is indeed the case. For example, Wen Tiren and Ma Shiying, who are widely criticized by officials, are indeed not decent people, but if judged by whether they can accomplish something Look, these two people can be regarded as rare capable ministers. Therefore, I found that what Mr. Fan said is like nonsense, because it is really hard to say who is good or not. In this way, I will only decide who is based on my own subjective assumptions. Virtuous and unvirtuous, after all, if we really want to discuss whether a person is not virtuous, there are places to discuss, and if we want to discuss whether a person is not virtuous, there are still places to discuss.”

  The new emperor said.

   Zhang Gui smiled slightly after hearing this, and said: “Your Majesty is not wrong. Fan Wuqiao’s words are indeed nonsense. At first glance, they are indeed very reasonable, but they are really useless to govern the country.”

   “That’s why I came to ask my uncle for advice.”

  The new emperor looked at Zhang Guiyan and said.

Zhang Guidao: “Your Majesty, in fact, governing the country is the same as medicine and practical studies. Laws can be discovered through research. Your Majesty can establish national policy research institutes and policy research offices to specialize in the research and development of certain policies, and then follow these laws. Govern the country. There are two laws that I know now that can be regarded as the standard by Your Majesty when governing the country in the future.”

   “Uncle, please speak!”

  The new emperor asked excitedly.

Zhang Gui nodded and said: “First, spare no effort to develop science and technology and education, which is the root of maintaining the strongest competitiveness of the country; second, the wealth increased by the development of the national economy should be distributed to the laborers as much as possible, because Wealth will always be concentrated in the hands of a few people instinctively, especially in the hands of those who get something for nothing, and the ruler must curb this phenomenon, just like in ancient times, all wise emperors and ministers must restrain the powerful from annexing land.”

  After hearing this, the new emperor nodded his head: “I remember it! The way of heaven is to make up for what is not enough; the way of man is to make up for what is not enough. As the Son of Heaven, I should follow the way of heaven.”

Zhang Gui nodded and said with a smile: “That’s right! Only in this way can the Ming Dynasty prosper forever! However, His Majesty doesn’t have to do this, because this is going against the trend. But it violates human nature, so it is prone to turmoil. If your majesty and the carnivores in the world just eat the people, then the world will be peaceful, but you must ensure that the people do not live too badly. Prosperity, the people suffer; death, the people suffer. Your Majesty Whether you are a wise ruler or a foolish ruler, if you want to live a stable life, you have to suffer from the people.”

   “I want to be a good emperor in the hearts of the people! Don’t let the people suffer!”

  The young new emperor still replied to Zhang Gui with great ambition, and because of this, he felt that his uncle was a bit out of date, and not as unwilling to admit defeat as he was when he and his father were rectifying Ming Dynasty and reforming.

  However, what Zhang Gui said is indeed true.

  The most exploited people in this world are the common people.

   After all, it is the most difficult to move the interests of the upper class.

   Zhang Gui’s behavior in the Tianqi Dynasty was only because the Ming Dynasty was about to perish and the people were about to be forced to rebel, so he had to attack the upper class.

  The next day is the new emperor’s year.

  Zhang Gui is also preparing to leave Beijing in the new year.

  And on the day he left Beijing, civil and military officials accompanied the emperor to see him off, and Zhu Youxiao, who had become the Supreme Emperor, also came to the platform to see Zhang Gui off.
