Chapter 1096 Newly compiled books
The cabinet hall is still relatively empty now.
First of all, the third floor is Zhu Xu's place. Although there are many people, most of them are internal officials. Everyone is cautious and rarely lively.
The second level is left for the National Parliament. This has not been formed yet. It will be completed before the provinces can select good people and send them to Beijing at the beginning of next year.
The third floor is the cabinet, which now has the most people, but because many cabinet ministers are not around and have just moved in, there is not the grand occasion of the past where the cabinet is crowded and coming and going.
It was not too late, so Zhu Xu cleaned up and got off from above.
The officials coming and going on the road all stood in a hurry and greeted each other.
As if he hadn't realized it, Zhu Xu went straight out of the cabinet hall and turned back to the Ganqing Palace.
In the East Warehouse, Zhang Yun was playing with some small toys on the soft wall with a few children.
When Zhang Yun saw Zhu Xu coming in, he quickly got up and said, "I have seen the emperor."
Before Zhu Xu could react, Xiao Shuxian quickly crawled out of the pile of children and shouted crisply: "Father... hug."
Zhu Xu walked forward and said with a smile: "Everyone is free, come, good daughter, father and embrace me."
As he said that, he stretched out his hands and hugged Xiao Shuxian in his arms. The little girl immediately hugged Zhu Xu's arm with both hands, rubbed her head, and laughed.
Zhu Xu sat on the soft collapse, looked at Ci Ye, Ci Xuan and Ci Yi's three sons, and smiled and said, "Come on, come to my father's side and tell me, what did you do today?"
Xiao Ciye looked at Zhu Xu and seemed to hesitate for a moment. He stood up obediently, walked a few steps, raised his little head, and looked at Zhu Xu quietly.
Zhu Xu reached out and asked Xiao Ciye to sit on his lap. The other two little guys were still young, but they also crawled over one after another, squatting or sitting, and looked up at Zhu Xu.
"How are my sons? Are you smart?" Zhu Xu teased several children and smiled at Zhang Yun.
Zhang Yun stood in front of Zhu Xu and smiled and said, "I think so too, especially Ci Ye. Although I don't speak much, I think he is the smartest."
Xiao Ciye didn't know if he could understand it, so he turned to look at "My Mother" and then looked at Zhu Xu again, with a quiet face.
The other two little guys didn't seem to have to wait for Zhu Xu to do anything, so they picked up the toy in their hands and fiddled with it.
But Xiao Shuxian hugged Zhu Xu, rubbed her back and forth, scratched her from top to bottom, and giggled.
Zhu Xu teased for a while and said, "Uncle Pingwang will come later. Please ask someone to prepare some meals. A few little guys will send them back later. It's too hot. You can't take care of them alone. Please pay attention to the palace. Don't have heatstroke. Let the Imperial Hospital prepare some soup for heat reduction. Sister-in-law, especially the old concubine, must pay more attention and not be hot..."
Zhang Yun said: "Yes, I am careful, the emperor should not worry."
Zhu Xu nodded slightly, hugged Xiao Shuxian in his arms, thought for a while, and said, "Ye'er is almost two years old, and she has to be enlightened. As for the teacher's choice, you discussed with Jie Yu, and discussed it. By the way, the emperor's sister-in-law has always been very concerned. She talked to the emperor's sister-in-law. The candidate has been decided. Tell me, I want to see you first and listen to how they arranged it..."
The Ming Dynasty has always attached great importance to the education of princes. Although some emperors did not study much because of birth and palace fighting, it was precisely because of this that Zhu Xu could not slackew.
When Zhang Yun heard this, he said, "Yes, I will go back and call my sister to Cining Palace to listen to the Queen Mother's thoughts."
Zhu Xu said 'um', turned to look at Xiao Ciye, and smiled and said, "Ye'er, what do you want to learn and what books do you read?"
The little guy raised his head, holding a wooden 'robot' in his hand, tilting his face, with a somewhat ignorant expression.
Zhu Xu immediately laughed and said, "It's okay, my father is here to make arrangements for you, and you will definitely become a prince with both moral integrity and talent, both civil and military!"
Zhang Yun looked at Zhu Xu, looked at Xiao Ciye again, smiled, and suddenly continued: "Your Majesty, there have been many palace maids in the palace recently, and there have been many mistakes. I plan to open a school to let some experienced old palace servants teach you. What do you think?"
Zhu Xu was stunned, turned to look at Zhang Yun, his eyes flashed slightly, and said, "Yes. But you can't just teach things. When you find a teacher for Ye'er, you can find some questions. The new palace maids will arrange time to attend classes and train good students. The palace is the center of the world. Everyone in the palace should be the example of the world. The palace maids are no exception. Try to train them as much as possible from a young age. By the way, Yongning and Shuxian should also go. They must teach them well and not let them go..."
Zhang Yun didn't expect to involve the two princesses, blinked and said, "Yes, I'm following the order."
Zhu Xu nodded with a smile, looked at the four children around him, and teased for a while. When he saw Liu Shimin coming in, Zhu Xu let them go and said to Zhang Yun: "I'm leaving it to you. I have to go to the Four and Five Halls."
"If you are here, don't worry, yourselves." Zhang Yun said with a smile.
Zhu Xu nodded, and just as he was about to leave, Xiao Shuxian suddenly hugged Zhu Xu's waist and shouted: "Father, sister, hungry..."
Zhu Xu turned around, rubbed the little girl's head, spread her two little hands, and said, "Let the queen take you to find your sister, I have something delicious for you."
The little girl was about to come up, and Zhu Xu quickly walked a few steps faster. Based on past experience, if she was slower, she would not be able to leave today.
The little girl was shouting from behind and was about to chase after her. Zhang Yun quickly stopped her, comforted her softly, hugged her and said a few words. When Zhu Xu left, he took a few children out.
Zhu Xu left the Qianqing Palace and headed straight to the Qianqing Gate. The Fourth and Five Pavilions were in the original Liuke Langfang.
The four or five museums have been around for a while, but literary giants have joined in the past two or three years.
The decoration here was more than ten years ago. The only benefit of the room is that it is large, can be read very much, and has enough bookish fragrance. Everyone likes to stay here.
As soon as Zhu Xu entered the door, many old or young people came over and saluted quickly: "I will meet the emperor."
Zhu Xu smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Thank you all, you don't need to be polite, I will just take a look."
The two brothers Tao Shiling were not keen on the court. Seeing Zhu Xu’s expressions a little strange, they still put down their pens politely and walked over and said, “I will meet the emperor.”
Zhu Xu smiled and said, "Mr. Ertao doesn't need to be polite. Just sit down and pretend that I don't exist."
Ertao was originally a scholar and didn't care much about the court. After Zhu Xu said that, they sat down and really thought Zhu Xu no longer existed.
Zhu Xu didn't care and walked forward with a smile.
Walking through open rooms, I ignored the people who saluted the salute and swept across books.
At this time, Gu Yanwu suddenly appeared and after saluting, he said, "Your Majesty, what should I see? I have been here for a while and can guide the emperor."
Zhu Xu glanced at him and was about to speak when Liu Zongzhou stood up in front of him and said, "I will meet with the emperor."
Zhu Xu liked Liu Zongzhou very much. Although this person has low political ability, he has high knowledge and is a master of his generation. He smiled and said, "I will just take a look. What books have you edited recently?"
Liu Zongzhou looked calm and said, "I am mainly responsible for editing and unifying Confucianism, striving to cover all the essence of my Confucianism to this day."
This is a great work!
Zhu Xu had little understanding of Confucianism, and did not ask questions. He looked at Gu Yanwu and said, "Take me to see what I asked to write."
"Yes." Gu Yanwu heard this and hurriedly said, "The emperor's follower is here."
Zhu Xu followed Gu Yanwu forward and came to a larger room, mostly young people, and few old scholars.
These people looked at Zhu Xu and were very nervous and stood aside.
Zhu Xu walked closer to the table and picked up a book casually. The title page reads: Summary of Jing Zheng’s New Deal.
After looking back, the above is very detailed from political system, policies, structures, and local systems. Some places are more detailed than what Zhu Xu thought about, and some explanations, even he did not even expect, are considered to be based on analogy and misfortune.
Zhu Xu looked carefully for a while, then smiled with satisfaction and said, "This editor is good, continue well, and show it to me if you have finished editing."
"Yes." Gu Yanwu answered.
Zhu Xu picked up another book casually, with four big words on it: Jing Zheng Xinfa.
Zhu Xu opened it and saw that the above were all disciplines and prohibitions issued by the Ming Dynasty after he ascended the throne, and extended it also explained the functions, sources and influences of these.
He read it very seriously. These were written in detail, with reasonable and well-founded, citing classics, benefits, disadvantages, and various great principles, which were much better than his words.
Zhu Xu read it for a while and was very satisfied. Then he picked up the next book, with the title above: Pros and cons of the new policy.
Zhu Xu narrowed his eyes and picked it up.
Although most officials from the court kept supporting the "New Deal", they were secretly secretive and dare not say too much. Those who opposed it could find countless reasons, excuses, and flaws to attack them. They have been in full swing so far, with no sign of stopping.
Now there is a book about "pros and cons of the new policy". He glanced at Gu Yanwu, Liu Zongzhou and others and flipped it out casually.
As soon as he saw it, Zhu Xu couldn't move it away.
This book starts with Zhu Xu's initial shelving cabinet and taking charge of six ministries, including six departments, censors, the Censorate, the Crown Office, the Crown Office, and the Zongqing, and then talking about the local government, and then various derived policies, agricultural affairs, imperial examinations, commercial affairs, abolishing low-class households, and then land and acres system, tax laws, etc., almost everything is included.
This book has more than ten pages in its eye-opening, covering all the reforms of Zhu Xu over the years, including the words "pros and cons".
Zhu Xu thought deeply and turned a page, and saw that "the truth of science and the way of science is abolished, the way of words is gone, all officials are responsible for the responsibility, and loyalty and treacherous are indisputable."
Zhu Xu raised his eyebrows, and looked at the sentence and fell into silence for a moment.
No one knows the pros and cons of the "New Deal" better than him, nor does anyone know the strength of the censors at this time and the terrible role they play.
However, the censorship system that has lasted for thousands of years naturally has its own reasons.
Zhu Xu looked at this sentence and did not continue to translate it.
