Chapter 765: Aim for a Thousand Miles

[End of the God Station] Remind book friends to keep in mind: Website URL: www.xinwanben.com Remember in a second, never lose it!

A class is over.

This time, Hanlin listened very seriously.

The pride in my heart is gone.

They look depressed.

Because they saw the resentment, they thought that people should regard them as the blue sky, as the defenders of Gangji, but now they know that what they harvested was hatred, countless monstrous hatreds.

Everyone has a conscience.

Even these 'boastful' people.

At this time, there was no more resistance in my heart, and after listening to Liu Wenshan's lecture, I had a little... epiphany...

Yang Ya lowered her head, her face was a little red, and she left after the class. Outside, Yang Biao was waiting for them with a 'ruler'. A proving ground for artillery was going to be built in the back mountain, and people were needed to dig ditches and level the land. .

Emperor Hongzhi also got up, he was silent for a moment: "Bring that Liu Jin..."

Saying that, he raised his leg and headed towards Zhen Guo Mansion.

In this class, the most shocking thing is the resentment.

This resentment was not only directed at the Imperial Academy, but also directed at Emperor Hongzhi.

There are so many dry firewood in the world, no wonder as long as there are sparks, it will be ignited. Just like a smallpox in Beitongzhou, as long as the thieves incited it, countless people would be ready to move.

Is this... just because of those thieves? No! Emperor Hongzhi was a man with a heart like a mirror, he was not stupid, of course he knew, the fundamental reason was, what did his ministers, those people who were full of benevolence and righteousness, do in the local area?

It's terrible.

Emperor Hongzhi sat in the hall of Zhenguo Mansion, his face sullen, someone poured tea for him, but he only held the teacup, but didn't drink it.

When Liu Jin was called, Emperor Hongzhi stared at Liu Jin.

Liu Jin hurriedly lay down shivering, and the upright and awe-inspiring Liu Jin just now disappeared, and returned to her groveling appearance.

Liu Jin kowtowed: "My servant has seen His Majesty."

Emperor Hongzhi said with emotion: "Come on, lift up your face and let me have a look."

Liu Jin raised his face.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at the pitted and pockmarked face and said, "You got smallpox and survived by luck?"

"Yes." Liu Jin kowtowed and said, "The servant girl... was lucky to survive."

"You were in Nanchang Mansion, and you went deep into the tiger's den with the prince, and you survived?"

"Yes." Liu Jin trembled.

Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "At the beginning, Emperor Wen was Jing Nan, and there was an eunuch by his side, Zheng He, the eunuch of the Three Treasures, who followed Emperor Wen and made great contributions to Jing Nan. An eunuch, but you also understand righteousness, I just saw that your conversation is not like an ordinary eunuch, and you have made great achievements in serving the crown prince, so it can be seen that you are a blessed person, and you are not an ordinary eunuch."

Liu Jin kowtowed: "This is what a servant girl should do."

Emperor Hongzhi said: "During this journey, write down what you saw and heard, and show it to me. I'm tired of seeing the memorials of local officials. I want to know, what did you see? "

"Slave obeys the order." Liu Jin was still trembling, not daring to look up.

Emperor Hongzhi said with emotion: "I hope you will follow the example of the Three Treasures Eunuch. In the future, you can also pass on your name for thousands of years. In the future, you will serve the prince well."

"Slave...thank you." Liu Jin was suddenly moved.

Your Majesty, you are finally willing to talk to yourself seriously.

"Get up." Emperor Hongzhi said with emotion: "Since you have joined Liu Wenshan's school, you can be considered as a student. I don't know, do you have a name?"

Liu Jin hesitated for a moment: "The servant is an eunuch, so there is no name."

"I'll take one for you." Emperor Hongzhi raised his head and was silent for a moment: "Call it Three Treasures."

Liu Jin moved her heart and said, "Thank you, servant girl."

I, Liu Jin... will be called Liu Sanbao from now on? This is His Majesty's bestowal, it is not easy to get.

After Liu Jin kowtowed again, he got up and obediently stood aside. He looked at Zhu Houzhao aggrievedly. Since he came back, he was in Xishan for treatment. The crown prince has not seen himself in the future. Thief's Ecstasy Soup? When we are in Xishan, we have been studied enough, hehe, when we go back, we will see how to deal with Zhang Yong.

In Liu Jin's heart now, he is happy. An eunuch, who has received His Majesty's gift, has an unlimited future. The most important thing is that he has realized the Dao. In his heart, his teacher Liu Wenshan is a saint. He can say It's really amazing to come up with this reasoning.

…………

Afterwards, Emperor Hongzhi looked at Liu Jian and others who were following behind.

Liu Jian didn't enter Minglun Hall to listen, but he was outside, but he also knew what was going on inside.

The hearts of the three great scholars are quite complicated.

Emperor Hongzhi said: "You three Qing families, Xinxue, what do you think?"

Liu Jian was silent.

Emperor Hongzhi raised his eyebrows: "Why don't you say anything?"

Liu Jian said: "The veteran thinks that this is a double-edged sword."

double edged sword...

Emperor Hongzhi smiled: "That's right, what the Qing family said coincides with what I have said. This study can carry the boat and make my Ming prosperous, but it can also overturn it. The new study advocates the people-oriented, and understands the diseases of the people. , understand the hardships of the people, and practice it personally. The scholars taught, if used well, can make my Ming Dynasty prosperous forever. But the way of the monarch, the minister, and the minister, is a little weaker..."

Liu Jian nodded.

This theory, to be honest, sounds very reasonable, but... there are many places to be wary of.

Emperor Hongzhi suddenly said: "But I want to ask, Daming, if this continues, how many years of life will you have? You can tell me."

"this……"

Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "I don't think it will be more than a hundred and fifty years. Since Emperor Hongwugao has only been around for a mere hundred years, there have been many problems. How many problems can't be eradicated makes me worry. I don’t believe in the nonsense of generations. I only believe that if the people can live and work in peace and contentment, the Ming Dynasty can continue. If the people in the world are suffering from hunger and cold, then no matter how many monarchs and ministers are useless, discipline and etiquette cannot be filled. Stomach, people who are hungry and can’t survive, they don’t care about monarchs and ministers... Who knows what will happen in the future..."

Emperor Hongzhi got up and smiled wryly: "All of this, leave it to my son, maybe my son will handle it better than me... I am getting old..."

Emperor Hongzhi is not old.

He is only in his thirties, but because of excessive work, gray hair has grown between his temples, and his heart is old.

He may not be able to accept new things. Especially with such a wonderful son, no matter how you look at this son, he looks like a pioneer of the times. If you put it in later generations, you would think that in the 1980s, this guy would have had a non-mainstream fluffy hair, a denim jacket on his upper body, and flared pants on his lower body.

Emperor Hongzhi said: "Xishan Academy, all the princes are in charge, and I will not interfere. As long as it is not without a king and a father, let them go."

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Fang Jifan: "Recently, you have to pay close attention to the recent voyage to the West, and go to sea earlier. My ships are all ready."

"..." Fang Jifan couldn't understand why His Majesty was thinking so fast and couldn't keep up with the pace.

Just now, he was still in Xishan Academy, and when he turned his head, he was thinking about going to sea.

But... thinking about it, His Majesty is very short of money. If you go to sea one day later, you will come back one day later.

Fang Jifan said: "That guy Xu Jing dared to be lazy, and I beat him to death. I should urge him hard."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded in satisfaction: "As soon as possible!"

"My son obeys the order."

…………

Xu Jing was a little confused.

Why did you turn your head and drive yourself into the sea?

There are not many days to land here.

Could it be that the mentor dislikes me and doesn't want to serve him for a few more days?

But the efficiency of the court is very high.

With the more than 200 ships built in the past two years, plus the previous ships, the size of the Daming fleet this time is almost comparable to that of the Sanbao eunuch's fleet at the time. There are nearly 300 ships, carrying personnel, more than ten thousand people.

But this time, because a large number of manpower is required to station at the Cape of Good Hope and Golden Island, the manpower carried by the fleet will also expand, reaching 20,000 to 30,000.

This will be an incomparable fleet. These fleets are stuffed in the cabin like sardines and head to the distant continent. They will retrace the original route and quickly arrive at the Golden Continent. Along the way, they may build ports and warehouses. For this route, make a little optimization.

The money and food needed for the voyage to the West are almost enough.

In the internal funds, two million taels were directly allocated this time. Besides, everything needed for shipbuilding is also available.

The Emperor Ming paid special attention to this, and made a special decree to recruit sailors and sailors.

In northern ports such as Tianjinwei, Penglai, Dengzhou, etc., recruitment orders were read out one by one, and lists were posted everywhere, but it was obvious...these orders were of little use.

Because there is no need for the emperor to requisition military households, as soon as they heard the news, countless military households were already moved after hearing the news.

The recruiting office in Tianjin Wei is already overcrowded. Every day, tens of thousands of military households come from all directions to sign up. The children of military households are so crazy that they even sleep outside the recruiting office in order to board the ship. , They were asked one by one to strip off their clothes, check their articulation, check whether there were scars on their skin, and measure their height and weight.

Go to sea! If you don't go to sea, what good will you do?

Even if you die, you have to die outside.

To stay on land is to wait for death. Millions of officers and soldiers at the bottom of the household have long been living rather than dying. Now, if there is a chance to change their destiny, no one will let it go.

How many people went out to sea and became rich overnight, and their lives have changed since then. Countless people, in order to go to sea, asked for connections and asked the people at the recruitment office.

The person who received a recruitment order requiring him to board a certain ship at a certain time on a certain day of the month suddenly smiled, and the family took out the money from the bottom of the box, slaughtered chickens and sheep, and feasted on the guests.

There is going to be a future.

When you are out at sea, don't think about going home. Don't worry about family matters. Die outside, admit it, this is fate.

When the neighbors heard that they had been selected, they came to congratulate them one after another. Even their superiors became vigilant and sent someone to show some courtesy.

After all, who knows if he will come back alive and have a great future? Don't dare to mess with, don't dare to mess with.
