The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

The Chang family is Zhu Ying's natal family.

In fact, the current Chang family has a feeling of being lost.

After Chang Yuchun's death, there were two main inheritors of his power legacy, Chang Yuchun's eldest son Chang Mao and Liang Guogong Lanyu.

Among them, at the beginning, most of them were inherited by Chang Mao, who inherited the Duke of Zheng Guo in the third year of Hongwu.

His father-in-law was still Song Guogong Feng Sheng.

However, there was a dispute with the father-in-law, and the relationship between the son-in-law collapsed. As a result, Feng Sheng was taken back from the military power, and Chang Mao would also lose his title.

Chang Mao, who was placed in Longzhou, died in the 24th year of Hongwu.

During this period of time, Chang Yuchun's direct descendant, who had no backbone, finally kept moving closer to Lan Yu's side.

At that time, Lan Yu's nephew was the prince Zhu Biao, who had a close relationship. He also fought in the South and the North, and made great contributions. Turn around with sapphire.

It was also because of the closeness of Chang Yuchun's direct lineage and the help of elite soldiers that Lan Yu's battle of fame came about.

"What my cousin means is that the atmosphere in the Guozijian is very bad now. Everyone competes with each other, and they are ignorant and incompetent all day long. They only pay attention to how to gain connections and obtain official positions."

"is that so."

Zhu Ying asked.

As Zhu Ying's natal family, the Chang family made it extremely easy to contact His Highness the Grandson.

After Chang Jizu went home yesterday and told his father Chang Sheng what he was thinking, Chang Sheng only thought about it for a while before readily agreeing.

The Chang family couldn't rely on Lan Yu, Duke of Liang, this was what Chang Sheng had always known as the head of the family.

However, before that, because his younger brother Chang Sen got too close to Zhou Ji, the son of Jiang Xiahou, he even bumped into His Royal Highness Taisun on the Qinhuai River, causing the Chang family to be in a very awkward position now.

In addition, there are not enough candidates now, and there is not even a candidate to serve Taisun's side.

Chang Jizu's initiative to raise this matter naturally gave Chang Sheng no reason to refuse.

Chang Jizu didn't let Chang Jizu get close to his grandson before, just because Chang Jizu was well-known as a bully in Guozijian. His reputation wasn't bad, but it wasn't much better.

Avoiding this kind of character, not only will not be appreciated by the grandson, but will cause resentment, so Chang Jizu will be ignored.

Chang Sheng is very happy to be able to say such words now.

At this time, upon hearing His Highness Taisun's question, Chang Jizu immediately said: "I have absolutely no lies, please His Highness Taisun carefully observe."

Zhu Ying said with a smile: "You are my cousin. I don't believe who else you can trust. I think you have thought carefully before you came to me to report this news."

"I have heard about your reputation occasionally, but I have never taken it seriously. I have been in business for many years, and I know the thoughts of those who claim to be literati."

"However, my brother has always felt that this matter is very difficult. My cousin has been in the Imperial College for a long time. I don't know if you have any ideas."

Zhu Ying's tone was calm and friendly, giving Chang Jizu the feeling that he treated himself as a family, which moved Chang Jizu deeply.

In fact, from a certain aspect, Zhu Ying also needs the help of a family like the Chang family.

In the current social situation, before the common people have enlightened their wisdom, aristocratic landlords can only be the mainstream direction, because ordinary people will only form a relationship of dependence when they do not have their own thinking power.

And such a change, for the 6000 million people in the entire Ming Dynasty, did not happen overnight.

It is conservatively estimated that it started in ten or even decades.

The Chang family is very good, because the current Chang family lacks a pillar, and the appearance of Chang Jizu also made Zhu Ying see a reliable candidate.

From the angry tone of Chang Jizu's words, Zhu Ying could guess the current situation, and it was the Chang family who deduced it behind the scenes, and more of it was Chang Jizu's personal behavior.

If Zhu Ying wants to completely change the current status quo of Ming Dynasty, he needs the support of a lot of people, like a party, who agree with his own ideas and strictly implement his ideas.

With the support of the old man at the upper level, there is naturally no resistance at present, but at the middle and lower levels, the current talent gap cannot be said to be big, and it can be described as no.

At present, almost all the strength of the entire Qunying Chamber of Commerce has been concentrated on the capital.

Whether it is the Western Regions, grasslands, or deserts, a large number of elite personnel have been mobilized.

And like Goryeo, the power that has been dormant for many years can only be handed over to Yao Guangxiao.

It seems that Yao Guangxiao directly provoked the hidden personnel and raised a large army to conquer the Wa Kingdom.

In fact, from another perspective, it is also Zhu Ying's idea that he cannot completely control the long-distance Korean personnel.

Perhaps among these latent personnel, some are still extremely loyal to Zhu Ying, but others, especially the developed Koreans, care more about their own interests.

This kind of relationship is not unbreakable, on the contrary, it will easily collapse. Yao Guangxiao discovered this point, and then raised the Koryo army to conquer the Wa country.

One is to cooperate with Ming's conquest plan, and the other is to transfer the internal conflicts on Koryo's side to external conflicts, and it is easier to directly solve some hidden dangers during the war.

In fact, there is a third point, which is something Yao Guangxiao and Zhu Ying are well aware of.

That is to consume the military power of Korea by means of the war against Japan.

Therefore, Zhu Ying was not very eager when it came to food for the Goryeo army, and Yao Guangxiao was also unscrupulous.

"I'm really short of people here."

Zhu Ying often sighed in her heart.

In the early Ming Dynasty, looking for like-minded people was tantamount to fishing for moons in a well.

The only way to go forward alone is the current real situation.

It can only be cultivated slowly by oneself, but unfortunately, before that, Zhu Ying didn't know that she still had the identity of Huang Ming's eldest grandson.

Those disciples who spent a lot of effort to cultivate are all based on Annan's development, and they are good at combining vertical and horizontal, and they are eloquent.

It is enough to engage in espionage, discord, inquire about intelligence, and instigate and instigate these.

But the development of internal affairs is totally wrong.

Fortunately, Zhu Ying is currently young enough, and there is still a long time to slowly cultivate elite talents who can follow her.

For example, Chang Jizu in front of him is a very good seedling.

Chang Jizu listened to His Highness Grandson's questioning before him, and his father's instructions from last night could not help appearing in his mind.

"You can have such an idea, and it is not difficult to get the appreciation of His Royal Highness."

"However, in order to truly be recognized and valued by His Royal Highness, you still need to think a lot."

"Father has nothing to teach you about superfluous things. After all, if father understands, he can do it himself, and there is no need to pin his hopes on you."

"The only thing to teach you is to let you know that the character of His Highness Taisun is as great and talented as His Majesty today."

"Don't try to play tricks in front of them. Frankness and sincerity are the key to whether you can be valued."

"When you ask your own questions, you should also think about how you should answer if His Royal Highness asks you how to deal with it."

Chang Jizu was really glad that what his father said to him last night, His Royal Highness really mentioned it today.

"I believe that freezing three feet is not a one-day cold. The current problems of the Guozijian have a long history, and it is difficult to build a complete reform if you want to make a thorough reform."

"If it is to directly force the reform, it will easily lead to turmoil, so I think it should be gradual and orderly."

When Zhu Ying heard this, she let out a soft 'oh', a little surprised.

Because whether judging from his appearance or other aspects, Chang Jizu belonged to that type of reckless man.

However, the words spoken now have a delicate taste.

Then, whether Chang Jizu thought of it himself or was taught by others is open to debate.

"Go on."

Seeing that Chang Jizu stopped because of his own interruption, Zhu Ying motioned.

Seeing this, Chang Jizu's eyes flashed with joy, knowing that what he said just now touched his grandson.

When I talk about it later, I feel more confident.

"Chen Guan Guozijian students, most of them are not diligent in limbs, and they don't distinguish five grains. They talk all day long about the so-called low grades in everything but high reading. It is a famous saying of the two who don't listen to things outside the window and only read sage books."

"That's why there are such absurd words coming out of the mouth, like this kind of ignorant people, because of the convenience of the Imperial College, they become a parent official, it will only be a disaster for the local people."

"Even if there is some benevolence, righteousness and morality, they will not be able to make meritorious deeds. Instead, they will be emptied by their subordinates. They will think about clinging to the powerful all day long, and get promoted to make a fortune. This has no effect on the administration of officials, and it is suspected of collapse."

"That's why I feel in my heart that the students of Guozijian should not only focus on studying, but should get in touch with the people more, so as to better understand the difficulties of the people, and they should not be ignorant of agriculture and water conservancy."

"Even if you have enough qualifications, you should not be easily released as an official. You need to learn the way of government affairs near the capital and pass the assessment before you can truly become an official."

"It's just that it can't fill the stomachs of the people, and benevolence and morality can't persuade bandits and bandits."

After Chang Jizu finished speaking, Zhu Ying took another serious look.

I have to say that Zhu Ying was very pleasantly surprised by Chang Jizu's suggestions.

He didn't think that these ideas were derived by the Chang family later, if there were people with such insights, they would definitely not be unknown.

When Chang Jizu was speaking, Zhu Yingyou observed that it was not like reciting, but really thinking about the problems he saw.

In the Chang family, whether it was Chang Sheng or Chang Sen, Zhu Ying felt that they were mediocre. They had neither strategy nor the bravery of his father Chang Shiwan.

Perhaps the deceased Chang Mao will be a little different, after all, as a legitimate son, he will spend more time on training.

It can only be seen from the encounter that he may have inherited recklessness.

"What my cousin said is very thoughtful, but Guozijian, as the highest institution of learning in Ming Dynasty, has a lot to do with it. If there are reforms, I must inform my grandfather to know."

"However, I didn't expect my cousin to have such an opinion. I don't know what my cousin's thoughts are, and what plans he has in the future."

Zhu Ying said.

The reform of Guozijian is inevitable, and these ideas proposed by Chang Jizu are also quite good.

Before, Zhu Ying felt that civility should not be overemphasized over martial arts, especially students, let alone being weak.

It is very necessary to get in touch with the people more, not to mention truly serving the people, but to understand farming and do the job well.

When Chang Jizu heard this, he was pleasantly surprised.

After receiving his father's guidance, Chang Jizu began to ponder in his mind how to solve the current problems of the Imperial College.

Today's speech came after a full midnight of hard thinking and meditation.

Being able to think of this has a lot to do with Chang Jizu's identity. When normal people go to the Imperial College, they always think about how to integrate into it, make friends, and pave the way for their future.

Chang Jizu didn't need these things, he himself was a descendant of the top nobles, and he didn't have much interest in the Four Books and Five Classics.

That's why we can stand outside and think about the problem.

Now the grandson's words are obviously to promote himself.

Chang Jizu didn't hesitate, and immediately bowed and said: "I know my character well, I love martial arts and despise literature. I heard that His Royal Highness established a military academy, so I kindly ask His Highness to invite you to study in the academy."

If you don't ask for something, you have something to ask for, and entering the academy as Chang Jizu is undoubtedly a matter of course.

Zhu Ying smiled, and naturally understood the small thoughts in these words.

"The military academy has basically made arrangements at present, but I plan to formally recruit students after Chunwei."

"My cousin is probably not living comfortably in the Guozijian now. I don't know how old my cousin is this year."

Chang Jizu hurriedly said: "This year is eighteen."

Zhu Ying nodded and said, "Just one year younger than Ben Gong, that's fine."

"They are all brothers of our own family, so we should get closer. There is currently a lack of a bodyguard around me. I don't know if my cousin is interested."

Chang Jizu was overjoyed, and kowtowed directly to the ground: "Thank you, Your Highness, Grandson, for your kindness."

The conquest generals who set out from the capital had arrived at the mouth of the sea in less than five days because they traveled along the river.

When the 50 troops gathered here for a long time, they were mainly divided into four groups.

The 20 army led by Feng Sheng is the main army, while the other three groups of [-] troops are under the jurisdiction of the three vassal kings Zhu Di, Zhu Wei, and Zhu Wei respectively.

Feng Sheng has the right to control the entire army.

It's just that Feng Sheng's heart is still very complicated.

He is very difficult to do.

Just the itinerary of the past few days has already seen the character of the three princes.

Among them, the rivalry between Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and Zhu Yan, the king of Jin, is the main theme of this journey. Whether it is discussing military operations or other aspects, they are almost always facing each other.

Zhu Di is not afraid of the capital now, but if the third brother hates himself, he will go back without hesitation.

Even if it was going to the level of a dry fight, it was not sloppy at all, it was extremely straightforward.

What else can Feng Sheng do, he can only continue to mediate.

And Zhu Yu's side is not a worry-free character.

He has an arrogant personality, and after leaving the capital, he felt like the boss of the sky and my second child. When seeing the third brother and the fourth brother fighting against each other, not only would they not persuade them to make peace, but they would fan the flames, wishing that the two would fight immediately.

Feng Sheng hasn't done anything else for the past few days, and his time is all about mediation.

"It's hard."
