Chapter 301: A sense of proportion

Even in Kaiping Palace, Zhu Xiongying has been used to sitting in the main seat every time over the years, and no one ever thinks there is anything wrong with this.

Whether it is the grandson of Zhu Xiongying, the young Yingrui, or the eldest grandson of the emperor who was still young, as long as he arrives at the Kaiping Palace, he will naturally be the main one. Some of his words will naturally be even more worthwhile.

Speculation.

Sometimes when you are with your own family, you don’t need to be surrounded by clouds and fog. This is also Zhu Xiongying’s habit.

Zhu Xiongying actually said something more thoroughly about Lan Yu's arrangements. These things are not just about respecting Lan Yu's opinions. In fact, the most important thing is to tell Chang Lan that she is the mother of the Crown Princess and Lan Yu

sister.

Zhu Xiongying looked at Chang Mao with a smile and said, "Uncle, I am going to take the position of the left governor of your Central Army Governor's Office. What do you think?"

Chang Mao was heartless and said with a smile, "Your Highness is joking. Although I am a Duke, everyone knows what happened to me. If I really go out to fight, I will go to war at most with the army.

, not even a deputy general."

How to say it, this is self-aware, and Chang Mao’s military talent is indeed very limited.

Chang Mao was at ease, and Chang Lan was not in a hurry. He would not think that robbing Chang Mao's official position would mean losing authority.

Speaking of which, the greatest pride of the Chang family is that the crown prince has always been close to the Kaiping King lineage. Even some people say that Duke Cao is the most trustworthy. But many people also know that it is just because Duke Cao Li Wenzhong

He is the nephew of Emperor Hongwu.

Just talk about Chang Mao’s official positions over the years, except for the Duke of Zheng, the title of Duke of Zheng, basically changed with the crown prince.

When Zhu Xiongying returned to Fengyang, Chang Mao led the position of the Zhongdu Department. When Zhu Xiongying made a northern expedition, Chang Mao led the Xunwei guards' central army. When Zhu Xiongying inspected Guanzhong, Chang Mao also wanted to follow him...

..

All civil and military officials have been accustomed to these years. Chang Mao, one of the six founding dukes, did not have his own basic foundation in the court or army like other dukes. He was the crown prince and followed him wherever he went.

Where.

Chang Mao also felt this way, and he also took such things for granted. He didn't need to care about official positions or something. Being able to do something good for the crown prince is what he needs to consider the most.

Zhu Xiongying smiled and said, "The Central Army Governor's Office is different. My uncle is not good at serving as the left governor now. I have changed the Beijing Army before, and a Shenji Battalion is not enough. I think I will change the fifth military camp again.

, Three Thousand Camps, my uncle has enough titles, and he just takes care of that place."

Chang Mao was stunned for a moment. Although he was a playboy, he knew something, "Your Highness, do you really want to move the Beijing camp?"

The three major camps are naturally the main force of the Beijing Army. In fact, in addition to the organization of the Shenji Camp that Zhu Xiongying made, the Five Military Camps and the Three Thousand Camps had also existed before. Hongwu was established at the beginning and was under the jurisdiction of the Grand Governor's Office, only

However, in the 13th year of Hongwu, he was transferred to the Governor's Office of the Five Army.

Zhu Xiongying naturally saw Chang Mao’s worries and said with a smile, “I naturally know that I won’t be rash.”

Chang Lan didn't know what to say, Chang Mao could only listen, but he still sighed in his heart that the crown prince was so favored and had a strong position. It would be fine if he was in charge of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, but he led the troops all over the world.

Not to mention the matter, now we are carrying out some drastic reforms to the Beijing camp. The emperor and the prince are really not suspicious at all!

In fact, the three camps that Zhu Xiongying planned to tinker are only part of the Beijing army and are the absolute main force among the Beijing army.

At this time, Chang Lan said, "Your Highness, Chang Mao's playboy is not aware of military affairs. If he leads the three camps, he is not afraid that he will not be able to do his job, but that he will miss His Highness's major affairs."

Chang Mao was not embarrassed at all. He knew how much weight he had.

Zhu Xiongying smiled and explained, "I understand, I just want my uncle to go to the camp. This time, I have to ask my own staff to go over the three camps. I am afraid that we are the veterans of Huaixi nobles.

Easy to use.”

Chang Mao looked up at Zhu Xiongying. He didn't dare to interfere with such blunt words. He was not worried about the rebellion of the crown prince, because there was no need to do that.

But if these words are spread, many Huaixi Wuxun will be muttering in their hearts.

After all, if you really want to say it, most of the Huaixi Wuxun naturally support Zhu Xiongying, and even support the crown prince more than the crown prince. Many people took it for granted the crown prince's origin as the crown prince.

The label of the nobles of Huaixi.

In fact, the emperor has been weakening the power of the Huaixi nobles over the years, which is also well known, and many things can be seen clearly. However, the crown prince is planning to do this now, and many Huaixi nobles are

I guess I'll be anxious.

Zhu Xiongying didn't care. He was definitely not the spokesperson for the interests of the nobles in Huaixi. He cared about the world of Ming Dynasty.

Visiting relatives must be visiting relatives, but it is not simply considered visiting relatives. After all, many people are carefully considering Zhu Xiongying's words and deeds, and some of his attitudes will indeed affect the lives of many people.

A career.

Zhu Xiongying brought his younger brother and sister to Kaiping Palace. In some people, the crown princess still attaches importance to the Kaiping lineage as always, and is extremely close to the Crown Princess's family, which naturally means that the Kaiping Palace is still in a transcendent position, special, and this is bound to be

It makes many martial arts or some aristocratic families want to curry favor.

Many people can understand this natural beauty problem, and it can only be the Kaiping King's lineage to take the lead. Whether it is the achievements of Kaiping King Chang Yuchun, or the Crown Princess came from Kaiping Prince's Mansion, this is something that others cannot envy.

Things.

After walking around Kaiping Palace, Zhu Xiongying and his younger brothers and sisters returned to the palace.

When he returned to the Great Shan Palace, Zhu Xiongying saw that He Yuyao was not idle either, as if he was looking at something.

Zhu Xiongying came up curiously and asked, "What are you looking at?"

He Yuyao replied with a smile, "I am looking at some beautiful girls' backgrounds and character, and I always have to look at some things to feel at ease."

"It's true that you'll be concerned about helping me take a concubine." Zhu Xiongying couldn't laugh or cry, but he could understand it, "Let's talk about it, I've got a crush on some people now."

He Yuyao replied with a smile, "In the 18th year of Hongwu, the second-level student from Ningjiang Prefecture, Jiangxi Province, was first appointed as a Hanlin editor. His mother's mourning period ended and was re-appointed as a editor. Later, she became the deputy censor. She was quite literary.

, The daughter is of the same age, gentle and virtuous, and I am quite fond of her."

Seeing that Zhu Xiongying was not up to the question, He Yuyao continued, "Zhuo Jing, the second-tier figure in Hongwu for 21 years, was extremely intelligent, with a magnificent poem. His young daughter was dignified and beautiful, and the female official was quite amazed."

"In the 18th year of Hongwu, Huang Zicheng, his daughter is quite beautiful, but I heard that his daughter is wearing feet..."

"No foot is allowed in my palace." Zhu Xiongying interrupted directly and said, "The princesses are not allowed to wrap their feet. Anyone who wraps their feet is not allowed to enter Chuxiu Palace."

Although the foot-wrapped now is not the perverted three-inch golden lotus in the future, it only modifies the foot shape, Zhu Xiongying still directly "one-size-fits-all". Some trends that have been circulating in the Southern Song Dynasty need to be changed now, even if they are not particularly popular now,

We must also suppress it so that this unhealthy trend will become more and more rampant.

He Yuyao naturally agreed, but in fact she was quite grateful. Fortunately, these were not very popular in Fuguang at the time. Otherwise, she might have a chance to be destined to be with the grandson.

Zhu Xiongying listened carefully and basically all belonged to some civil servants. Moreover, He Yuyao also has some of her own little thoughts, basically choosing some middle- and senior officials' families. She is a civil servant who has emerged in recent years and has been on a relatively strong rise.

Family.

In fact, it is easy to understand. Some important officials do not mean that they will let their daughters and granddaughters enter the palace to insult them. In He Yuyao's opinion, even if they are just some concubines, they should bring some help to the crown prince.

/p>

Zhu Xiongying had no objection to this. In fact, even if he chose He Yuyao as the crown princess, in addition to Zhu Xiongying's opinion, the most important thing is that there are some more realistic political factors.

So now I choose some concubines for him, so I naturally need to consider these things, which is normal.

Zhu Xiongying thought about it and said to He Yuyao, "Please choose one for the civil servant family. Pick one for the local wealthy family."

It is still necessary to pay attention to balance. Not only does Zhu Xiongying's concubines take into account all classes, but those are obviously unrealistic. However, taking care of some more mainstream classes and groups as much as possible is also something that should be done.

He Yuyao naturally understood this truth and said with a smile, "I understand. My mother has explained a lot before. I plan to discuss with my mother in some time. Such a major event still requires the approval of my grandmother and mother."

Zhu Xiongying hurriedly said, "No, but don't! If they really want to make the decision, they must find a good birth. If you weren't for the trouble of me, they would probably not be very happy and would feel thin.

Some. Marry a wife and a virtuous person, and I think I have both talent and beauty. These concubines should also look better."

He Yuyao didn't know what to say, she knew her appearance very well. Some of her looks are true, but they can't say that she is beautiful.

Just thinking about the performance of the royal grandson in the past, he was not a lustful person, but now he still seems unavoidable.

Holding back the laughter, He Yuyao said, "Grandmother and mother also told me that you should not choose someone who is too beautiful."

Zhu Xiongying said directly, "Then you just look at the choice. In short, the appearance must not be bad. If my grandmother and my mother are not sure, I will make trouble at that time. However, although appearance is important, the character must be considered.

There can't be any bullshits in it."

After saying this, Zhu Xiongying no longer explained it. He believed that He Yuyao knew these things. These things were not worth worrying about. In the past few years, he actually saw many beautiful ladies in the palace.

But in Zhu Xiongying's opinion, that's the case.

Thinking of an important thing, Zhu Xiongying asked, "Have I sent my letter to the fleet?"

He Yuyao hurriedly said, "Of course, the emperor is the one who is in charge of the official position, and I dare not ask about it. I said that I was going to send it to you quickly. If the fleet has not yet gone to sea, I think I can catch up."

/p>

That's good. Although there have been some arrangements for the fleet going to sea, Zhu Xiongying also has some explanations before departure. There are really no changes, only some earnest instructions from Zhu Xiongying.

Going to the ocean is not a simple matter, and naturally it needs to be treated with caution, and it is not an exaggeration to be careful.

To be honest, this is also the largest long-distance ocean trip since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. Even if it was hunting Japanese pirates to Ryukyu before, it was not as large as the current fleet, and the mission was not as complicated as it is now.

Although he was a little unsure, Zhu Xiongying was still full of expectations. He hoped to bring back some good news and hoped to make some valuable discoveries. This had extremely special significance for him and the Ming Dynasty.

/p>

No matter what, these things are what Zhu Xiongying should do, or Xiu also has the intention of giving his or her destiny.

After all, even if Zhu Xiongying is the crown prince, it is impossible for everything to be under control. In this era, in addition to technical accumulation and navigation knowledge, it actually requires some luck.

Especially such explorations of going overseas require some luck. What can you bring back this time and how many benefits can you bring to the Ming Dynasty? In fact, Zhu Xiongying is also unsure of it.
