Chapter 344 A special feast

Zhu Youxiao knew that Zheng Zhilong would probably find it difficult to accept this condition, but considering the interests of the entire Ming Dynasty, he had to accept it even if he didn't accept it!

Even in history, the Qing Dynasty surrendered Zheng Zhilong, Zhu Youxiao did not feel that his political vision was shorter than that of the Qing Dynasty.

Besides, the Ming Dynasty is not the Ming Dynasty during the Chongzhen period, and the Jiannu in the north can no longer pose a threat. Of course, as long as there are no troubles in the Ming Pass, the Jiannu cannot destroy the Ming Dynasty. Now this is even more so.

The Ming Dynasty's own financial problems have been basically resolved, because the absence of the collection of Sanxiang and the abolition of corvee labor and large-scale engineering construction has also eased class contradictions.

Therefore, it is impossible for Zheng Zhilong to wrestle the arm of Daming.

"The cabinet immediately responded to Xiong Wencan according to my wishes. I have already stated that this revenge was Zheng Zhilong begging to submit his troops and warships to the court. Zheng Zhilong could only agree to hand over his troops and warships to the court. Otherwise, he would not think that the court could easily accept their support, acknowledge the legitimacy of these pirates, and tell Xiong Wencan not to easily agree to Zheng Zhilong's unreasonable request in private because he was eager to make achievements. If he dared to do so, I would definitely punish him for his deception!

Of course, I am not unable to discuss it. In order to show my kindness, I recognize the legitimacy of all the industries and land he has purchased in his hometown, and at the same time allow him to retain the wealth he has accumulated over the years. I can even grant him a higher official position, even a title of marquis, or even a marriage with him, but he must come to the capital, whether to work for the court or live and live in his old age, it depends on his own ideas, and just draw an order like this!"

As Wang Chengen said that, he came over and handed over to another eunuch, the Sili Supervisor who was on duty and followed Zhu Youzhai, and Cao Huachun hurriedly ran to the Xihunting Pavilion.

At this time, the sun gradually emerged from the Golden Palace, and the mist that enveloped the entire white marble began to dissipate. Zhu Youxiao also came to the vicinity of Wenhua Palace and saw a civil servant.

It is rare. When the dew is white from tonight and the cold is deep tomorrow morning, I can come to the wet and cold environment here early to wait.

Seeing this, Zhu Youxiao showed a human touch, so he ordered Wang Chengen to add charcoal to these ministers, and this became a practice.

The ministers were naturally grateful, while Zhu Youxiao smiled and said nothing. He wanted to be truly grateful. It would be the best way to be grateful if he didn't recite in front of him later. What's the use of bent his body so that his head was almost hitting the ground?

But at this moment, Cao Huachun ran back and said breathlessly: "Your Majesty, the memorial from the Royal Weaving Bureau has arrived."

"Uh, let me show you." Zhu Youxiao said that, and then took the memorial from Cao Huachun. Then, seeing the ministers looking at him with a trembling look, just like a resentful woman, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but feel funny: "Why are you staring at me? This lecture is not unavailable. Let me deal with this urgent matter first. Look at you all frozen, there is no time for charcoal to transport it now. You might as well go out for a few laps. Wang Chengen, take the lead, and your body will be warm as soon as you run. When you start speaking the scriptures, you won't tremble!"

As Zhu Youxiao said that, he sat on his throne, and Wang Chengen immediately placed the prepared warmer under Zhu Youxiao's feet. A hot feeling came from the soles of his feet, which made the chills all over Zhu Youxiao's body dispel all in an instant.

But at this time, Tang Xiangtai, a lecturer at the Hanlin Academy, couldn't help but bow and said, "Your Majesty, you just asked me to go out for a run. This is really a disgrace to be gentle and not in line with etiquette."

"What is insulting your kindness? Yu Li is not incompatible. Did you mention running in Zhou Li? And I just want to warm you up?" As he said that, Zhu Youxiao hurriedly said to Wang Chengen: "Wang Chengen, take your dear friends to run. Remember to run slowly. Some of them are old ministers from three dynasties. You can't run too quickly, so let the imperial physician watch from the side."

As Zhu Youxiao said that, he couldn't help but smile secretly. Seeing the unwillingness of the ministers of the six ministers and nine ministers, he deliberately looked furious: "What, do you want to resist the order?"

Then, Zhu Youxiao looked at the memorial presented by the Royal Weaving Bureau.

There were many civil servants participating in the imperial lectures, at least they were very important. Among them were the officials of the cabinet who served as officials of the imperial lectures, as well as the six ministers of the left and right officials, the imperial censors, the ministers of the Dali Temple, and the bachelors of the Hanlin Academy. From the officials of the Hanlin Academy, Chunfang and other officials, two of them were selected as lecturers. Among the officials of the Hanlin Academy, Chunfang and other officials, two of them were selected to showcase and cover the books. In addition, there were more than twenty people in the cabinet who asked the special department of the school to participate in the imperial lectures.

Now, these twenty people, from the Qingliu officials who were only 20 or 30 years old who dared to enter the Hanlin Academy to the officials who were 70 years old, stood outside the Wenhua Hall, lined up with their official ranks and ran slowly with Wang Chengen.

Although the ministers were very unhappy in their hearts, and even secretly scolded the Emperor for making such a ridiculous move. They must go back and give a few comments, but now they can only follow Wang Chengen honestly.

However, Zhu Youxiao did not tell Wang Chengen how many laps to run and when to stop.

Zhu Youxiao was already conveying to Cao Huachun that the cabinet should handle the first trade between the Royal Weaver Bureau and Ryukyu Kingdom and took the initiative to transport it. "Although Ryukyu Kingdom is just a small country that surrenders to our Ming Dynasty, it is still very important to our Ming Dynasty. Now that its new king ascends the throne, our Ming Dynasty cannot be perfunctory. We must have a letter of title and congratulations. At the same time, using this to do a big deal in Ryukyu Kingdom is also the first step for the Royal Weaver Bureau to get rid of the Zheng pirate group and take a big deal abroad. We must not be careless. If Zheng Zhilong is really dishonest, don't be polite. Tell the First Fleet of the Beihai, you would rather be wiped out than compromise!"

Zhu Youxiao said that, then got up and came outside the hall. Seeing that several ministers were too late to run away, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Go and tell Wang Chengen and bring them all in."

For a moment, all the civil servants who participated in the imperial lecture walked in panting. These civil servants were weak people and never knew what exercise was. Now, they were like a life-threatening person and could not speak. Zhu Youxiao was not angry, but just drank tea ceremony on the side: "Let's start the imperial lecture."

The first lecturer of the lecturer of the imperial lecture stood up first, and said in a angrily voice: "I am Zhu Ziming, please ask Your Majesty for a question."

"I'll ask you, the sea is uneven. If you are a wise king, what should you do?" Zhu Youxiao asked. Zhu Ziming, a second-class Jinshi in the second year of Tianqi, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and quickly flipped the "Great" in his hand and began to sweat slightly.

"Don't read it, it's not in "The University". I know you are responsible for talking about university today. You really think I will ask you what you say in university. I am asking about national policy. Since you want to speak on behalf of the saints, you must answer my questions with what the university says!"

Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but teach this old Hanlin a lesson.
