I'm a big dick

Chapter 323
Starting to focus on the long-term, promote the deepening of reforms, and hope to lay the foundation of modern science can only explain one point.

That is, the emperor had strong confidence that the establishment of slaves would not become a confidant's trouble, let alone take over the Central Plains; there would be a way to survive the Little Ice Age without stirring up civil unrest for a change of dynasty.

Originally, others didn't know the two major worries in the emperor's heart.In their view, Jiannu is a separatist regime at most; the Little Ice Age is a term they have never even heard of.

But now, things have changed a lot.The disasters of the Little Ice Age were published in the "Da Ming Forum", and the new terms became familiar to people.

Although it was a prediction, the emperor spoke with certainty, and ordered the governors of Shaanxi, Henan, Shandong and other places to formulate a plan for disaster relief and disaster reduction, and reported it to the court.

The emperor paid so much attention to it, no matter whether it was watching the sky at night or inferring through data research, no official who received the imperial decree would dare to neglect it.And the news is constantly spreading, and more and more people know about it.

A big panic is unlikely to form. The emperor said that it will be three or four years before the catastrophe breaks out.Moreover, upon hearing such news, people's first reaction should be to be skeptical.

Of course, Zhu Youxiao would not expect the common people to prepare in advance to survive the famine caused by the disaster, or to avoid other bad and painful damage.

For such a large and lasting disaster, the power of individuals is negligible, and basically depends on the organization and actions of the government.The emperor attaches great importance to it, and the governors below dare not take it lightly. It is always right to prepare in advance, and it will always be effective.

Of course, the emperor had a deeper meaning, but only a few trusted officials could guess it.

In Zhu Youxiao's words, that is, "I will not take the blame for natural disasters."

And some bastards don't want to link natural disasters with my reform and new policies, so I won't criticize myself, let alone do shitty self-criticism.Well, to be more elegant, it is the "crime edict".

"The emperor—" Liu Kejing, the eunuch of the inner palace Bingbi, reminded, interrupting Zhu Youxiao's thoughts. When he looked up, he had already arrived at the new house to the west of Qianqing Gate.

The Qianqing Gate is the main palace gate of the inner court of the Forbidden City, with three gates in the middle.In the east is the inner left gate and the Jiuqing value house, and in the west is the inner right gate and the newly renovated houses.

Stepping into the house, Zhu Youxiao looked around, walked around casually, and put forward suggestions for improvement from time to time.

"Mr. Sun is old, but he has to be on duty." Zhu Youxiao pointed to the bed in the room and asked, "It's okay to say in summer, but the heating in winter must be good."

Liu Kejing bowed and replied: "Your Majesty, don't worry, according to your design, the kang and fire wall have been repaired, and it will definitely not be cold in winter."

Zhu Youxiao nodded, then turned around and went to other rooms to inspect them one by one.

Although there is a cabinet to handle affairs, Zhu Youxiao thinks that it is too far away, and the imperial edicts and memorials are sparsely communicated, fearing that the secrets will be leaked.Therefore, the establishment of the Military Aircraft Department was a matter of course.

No matter who named it, whoever uses it first will own it. This is intellectual property, and you don't understand it.

According to Zhu Youxiao's arrangement, the Military Plane Department selected the conspirators in the cabinet to be on duty, mainly to deal with emergency military affairs, and to assist the emperor in handling government affairs.

The minister of military aircraft is rotated by the cabinet ministers, mainly Sun Chengzong, Li Qiyuan, Tao Langxian and other trusted ministers.Both the Minister of Military Aircraft and the Department of Military Aircraft are part-time, and they are also temporary agencies in form.

But this did not prevent Zhu Youxiao from elevating the General Aircraft Department to the highest ruling state organ, and placing it completely under his direct control.

To put it bluntly, the Military Aircraft Department is a bit like the emperor's secretariat, and those who can enter it are all officials trusted by the emperor.

Promote the centralization of power, invest in infrastructure construction, promote the development of industry and commerce, and climb the technological tree. From the development of later generations, Zhu Youxiao also formulated a long-term plan for Daming.

Of course, it is not just copying. According to the current situation, Zhu Youxiao has made some changes.

But the general idea remains the same. Concentrate power in your own hands, break through all secular, traditional, backward, and decadent obstacles, revitalize Ming Dynasty, and make the Chinese nation stand on top of the world.

Isn't it noble and great?In fact, this is also Zhu Youxiao's real thought.Punch Donglu and kick Xiyi.Just one word - do it if you don't accept it.

Of course, living well is the prerequisite for this ambitious plan.

Zhu Youxiao has seen the buildings and layout of the Military Aircraft Department, and except for some minor problems, he is basically satisfied.After the inspection, he walked back to Qianqing Palace without taking a chariot.

If you want to live well and live long, exercise is essential.Zhu Youxiao didn't forget this point, not only did more exercise, but also asked Lu Jianxing to teach him martial arts, and wanted to be an emperor who could fight.

Time is not long, Zhu Youxiao has returned to the main hall of Qianqing Palace.Just as he was about to enter the hall, he heard the cries of people in the distance.

Standing under the eaves in doubt, Zhu Youxiao turned his head to look, and found a small figure running towards this side quickly.Behind the small figure, there seemed to be an adult chasing after him, greeting him wheezingly.

Getting closer, Zhu Youxiao heard and saw clearly.

Tao Yan'er was running in front, I didn't expect the little girl to run so fast; behind, or chasing after, was Wang Tigan, shouting: "Little girl, don't run, don't take credit for miscellaneous family..."

What a mess, eight poles have nothing to do with it, why did they get together?

Zhu Youxiao was a little puzzled, and waved his hand, not letting the guards step forward to stop Taoyan.A little girl, what threat can she have, running up to her and hitting herself to death?
Tao Yan is also a ghost spirit, fearing that people would stop her, she ran up to her and waved: "Long live, long live, the daughter of the people is here to announce the good news to you..."

Zhu Youxiao stood still, looking at the little girl who ran up to him with a half-smile.

Tao Yan's little face turned red from running, she stopped her pace, and knelt down and kowtowed before she could catch her breath, "Long live, long live, the daughter of the people will report to you, good news. I just gave the empress Chitose a routine examination and found a happy pulse. Congratulations, long live , Long live Congratulations."

Zhu Youxiao blinked and blinked, with an ecstatic expression on his face, and said in a trembling voice: "Really? Is the queen happy?"

"Seriously, seriously, 1 seriously." Tao Yan kowtowed, and her voice became much more normal.

"Okay!" Zhu Youxiao blurted out, the voice was so loud that others jumped.

This is really great news, my marksmanship is accurate, and I will have a queen again.

Zhu Youxiao narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists, feeling very excited.Changing history is another solid proof, and it is even more exciting when it involves itself.

There is one, two, and three, four are still far away?I - I'm so amazing!

Wang Tiqian ran over panting, almost sticking out his tongue, gasping for breath, reached out and touched Xiao Taoyan who was kneeling on the ground, "You, you, little, little girl, you ran, returned, really fast. Miscellaneous, thanks to the miscellaneous family..."

Seeing Wang Tiqian's appearance, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help laughing, and said: "Wang's companion is a little later, but he has made great achievements in announcing the good news. I will reward myself."

"Long live, what about the folk girl?" Tao Yan raised her small face and looked at the emperor eagerly.

Zhu Youxiao looked at the little girl, chuckled, and said, "Well, you were the first to announce the good news, so why didn't you get a reward? I..."

Tao Yan answered the conversation, then kowtowed again, "Minnv, thank you for the reward." After speaking, she raised her head, looked at the emperor, and said expectantly, "Minnv wants to ask Long live to reward a cat."

It turned out that it was for cats, and I saw that you liked it that day.

Zhu Youxiao nodded with a smile, and said, "The cat is still young, and I will reward you with one when it is weaned."

Tao Yan suddenly opened her big eyes, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Minnv wants that big cat named Xiaobai."

Hey!I thought you only wanted to break branches and flowers, but unexpectedly, you even wanted to take away the pots!
Zhu Youxiao rolled his eyes, shook his head and said, "That's not okay, Xiaobai was raised by me, so I can't give it away."

Tao Yan showed a dejected look, lowered her head and said, "Long live, then, can you give Minnv a cat that looks the same as Xiaobai?"

"That's no problem." Zhu Youxiao saw that the little girl had made a concession, and the pitiful look made people hard-hearted. Isn't it easy for people to buy the same variety?

"Minister, thank Your Majesty for the reward." The little girl kowtowed to express her gratitude, and it was considered that the matter was settled.

Wang Tigan shook his head and rolled his eyes helplessly, but with this little request, tell the miscellaneous family, is it worth making the miscellaneous family like a dog with exhaustion, and robbing the miscellaneous family to announce the good news?
"Go to Kunning Palace." Zhu Youxiao waved his hand, went down the steps, and strode towards Kunning Palace.

The queen is happy, which means that the royal inheritance is expected, which is not comparable to concubines.The mother of a country, the eldest son of the emperor, her second child!
When this great event occurs, there will usually be a grace of amnesty to the world, which is usually called Jifu.

But at this time, Zhu Youxiao was already preoccupied with seeing the queen. Hearing what the female doctor Yang Hanyi said was more certain, he didn't think of this at all.

The Kunning Palace was already full of joy, and even the palace residents greeted them with smiles unconsciously.Maybe it's also Zhu Youxiao's illusion, anyway, it's pleasing to the eye.

Zhang Yan was still reserved on the surface, but she didn't know what success was like in her heart.

Polygamy was practiced in ancient times, but there can only be one real wife, and that is the main wife, also known as the first wife.In the big family, the distinction between the concubine and the concubine is very strict, and the ranks of superiority and inferiority are also delineated.

The same is true for the royal family. The queen's children are the first sons, the sons are expected to inherit the throne, and the daughters are also the first princesses, who are higher than those born to concubines.

Zhu Youxiao may treat everyone equally, the queen and concubines are all his women, there is no obvious preference, and the same is true for future children.

But in the concept at that time, both the queen and the concubine had a sense of rank and dignity, and they would strictly abide by it.It's not self-deprecating, or self-respecting, but natural.

The news in the palace spread quickly, the queen was happy, and the other three concubines rushed to congratulate her immediately, including Zhang Yu'er who was pregnant with Liujia.

The emperor sat for a while, then got up and left, and asked the palace staff to carefully send the pregnant Zhang Yu'er back to the palace.

Happy in my heart, but also a little regretful.With a villain in her belly, what Empress Zhang Yan said was to make the emperor less likely to come to Kunning Palace to sleep in the future.

This was rather tactful, Zhu Youxiao knew that Zhang Yan wished that he would not go.

Paying too much attention to children?If you think about it from the perspective of Zhang Yan and the concubines, it's perfectly normal.

In the palace, and even big families, it is very common for mothers to be more expensive than their children.

For example, in a family with many wives and concubines, if the concubine gave birth to a son, her status would naturally improve; the same is true for the royal family. To describe the miserable situation of concubines and concubines, "no sons and no favours" is often used to describe them.

To put it bluntly, if you can give birth to the emperor's flesh and blood, your status will be very different.Even if the emperor is ruthless, most of them still care about family affection for their children.With this layer, it can be regarded as insurance.

Zhu Youxiao can't say that they worry too much, and he understands that they regard their children as protection or talismans in the palace.

Of course he is excited about becoming a father, and he sees this as a real example of changing history and breaking the curse of having no children.

The revolution has not yet succeeded, we still have to work hard at night!

Thinking that Concubine Wang Liang and Concubine Duan Chun were the only ones who welcomed him, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help showing a weird smile.

.....................

The emperor was very happy these days, and all the ministers could tell that even though there was a lot of quarrel over the North Korean coup, the emperor didn't blame anyone, and he didn't express his opinion easily.

The fuse of this court debate was Yuan Keli's memorial. In this memorial, Yuan Keli's point of view is very clear. He emphasized the illegality of the coup, which is related to the "universal value" of Gangchang ethics.

Moreover, he believes that "even if Huiguo is immoral", it should "wait for China to change it", and he even advocated sending troops to "speak the crime".

The officials were divided into two factions, arguing endlessly in the court.One faction stood on the grounds of righteousness and proposed that the heavenly soldiers should crusade against his crimes and restore the orthodoxy of the Joseon King.

The words used by this school are very fierce, and it can be described as impassioned, such as "the crime must be punished to strengthen the king's gang";

To put it bluntly, it was armed intervention to overthrow the current Li Zhen and restore Li Hui's throne.

The level of the other school seems to be quite high, and it is more objective. It advocates ordering envoys to enter the DPRK, observe nearby, and decide what action to take based on the standard of North Korea's "trading slaves or not slaves".

However, the emperor's delay did not express his position. On the surface, it seemed that he was waiting and watching, or he could not make up his mind.In fact, he was helping Li Zhen.

Because, waiting and watching has bought him time to clean up after "anyway", so that he can stabilize the situation in North Korea and secure his throne without any worries.

If it is of superior intelligence and keen eyesight, of course one can see the emperor's mind.But if you think about it further, few people will be able to ascertain the emperor's true intentions.

And at this moment when the debate was fruitless, but it was getting into trouble.At Luda, another event that had a major impact on the situation in Liaodong happened.

Yang Jie, who is known as the smiling tiger, looked at the person in front of him with a serious face.

Jin Shengkui did not expect that the well-designed plan would be in danger of failure just as it started.According to his and Liu Aita's idea, take a boat to go to Dengzhou, and get the promise and guarantee from the emperor Yuan Keli.

But the ship had just sailed dozens of miles at sea before it was intercepted by warships of the Ming army.In order not to be beheaded with a single knife, and the plan was aborted anyway, Jin Shengkui could only say that he had met the superior and had important information to report.

Now, facing this Ming army officer who started to smile and turned serious, Jin Shengkui was a little torn, he didn't know whether to tell the whole story or to hold back.
