    Zhu Youxiao rolled his eyes at Fang Congzhe angrily. He really couldn't do anything about this stingy old fox. Although Fang Congzhe was stingy and always wanted to take money from Zhu Youxiao, he played the role of a calming needle in the court.  But no one can replace it!

    Since Zhu Youxiao ascended the throne, he has carried out earth-shaking rectifications to the entire Ming Dynasty's bureaucracy, not only completely separating civil and military affairs, but also integrating officials into the official system. This can speak to the fundamental interests of Ming officials!

    Although the emperor Zhu Youxiao was too strong and completely suppressed the counterattack of the civil service system by force, without Fang Congzhe to guide the situation and appease all parties, the Ming Dynasty officialdom would not have been able to survive the most turbulent period so calmly!

    It is precisely because of Fang Congzhe's actions that Zhu Youxiao also has great trust in him. Now it can be said that Fang Congzhe dominates the civil service system of Ming Dynasty. However, Fang Congzhe also knows how to advance and retreat. So far, he has never done anything that Zhu Youxiao can't stand.  This is also the key to the relationship between the king and his ministers!

    Seeing that the matter of the Imperial Alliance Army was settled, Zhang Weixian asked: "Your Majesty, one hundred thousand Imperial Army Alliance troops have been transferred to Liaodong. Who will control them?"

    Zhu Youxiao said without hesitation: "Full power is under Xiong Tingbi's control. Tell Xiong Tingbi that the Imperial Army is just cannon fodder. You can use it however you like, and you don't need to worry about losses!"

    After Zhang Weixian heard this, he felt confident in his heart and responded: "The old minister will explain this to Xiong Tingbi. I believe he will understand your Majesty's intention and make good use of the Imperial Alliance Army and let them devote themselves to the Ming Dynasty and die!"

    Zhu Youxiao nodded and asked: "How is the situation in Grassland and Houjin now?"

    Zhang Weixian raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "As your Majesty expected, there has been a bloody massacre on the grassland. Many small tribes have either been wiped out or have joined the Ming Dynasty. In just three months, the Ming Dynasty has acquired more than 80,000 slaves.  There have been only two light rains in Liaodong since March and April. The drought in Liaodong this year is inevitable. Xiong Tingbi has ordered the troops and horses of Liaodong to be on alert to prevent the Jiannu invasion from the south. In addition, the Liaodong Navy has also obeyed His Majesty's order and sent troops to  Going deep into the hinterland of North Korea, destroying North Korea's water conservancy and farmland, and hunting North Korean slaves, it is expected that North Korea will also suffer a major disaster this year!"

    Zhu Youxiao nodded with satisfaction, looked at Fang Congzhe, who was here, and asked: "Mr. Fang Ge, it seems that this year will not be a good year. Our Ming Dynasty will not be plagued by disasters, right?"

    Fang Congzhe leaned forward and replied, "Don't worry, your majesty. Thanks to your great blessing, the water conservancy projects in the north have been repaired for two consecutive winters. Therefore, although there are many droughts in various places this year, they have not caused major disasters. In addition, a large number of hidden fields have been cleared in various places, and your majesty has saved the world."  A year's worth of taxes paid by farmers can now be said to be singing and dancing throughout the Ming Dynasty, and all people in the world are grateful for your majesty's kindness!"

    Zhu Youxiao rolled his eyes and said: "Mr. Fang Ge, please don't talk too much. Yang Lian has been away from Beijing for almost two months, and he still doesn't know what shocking case he is going to make!"

    The smile on Mr. Fang Congzhe¡¯s face faltered, and he said in a nonchalant manner: ¡°The tree is ten feet tall, so it is inevitable that there will be some insect and ant infestations. Sometimes I am unable to do everything, and I cannot cover everything!¡±

    Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and said: "I don't mean to blame you. As the chief minister of the dynasty, you naturally have to take care of major affairs. However, the court says a thousand words and ten thousand, and ultimately it is to make the people of the world live and work in peace and contentment, so that we can  To preserve wealth, I will never tolerate those who dare to do whatever they want with some power. Even if they have a hundred heads, I will chop them off!"

    Fang Congzhe saw Zhu Youxiao's stern face and his thoughts changing. He immediately felt that something was wrong and asked quickly: "Your Majesty, what case is there, Mr. Yang?"

    Zhu Youxiao snorted coldly and said, "You'll know after a while!"

    Fang Congzhe knew that Zhu Youxiao didn't want to talk, so he naturally didn't dare to ask further questions, so he could only stay silent angrily, but he didn't stop thinking about what big case Yang Lian had discovered, and who was going to be unlucky!

    After saying these things, Zhu Youxiao looked at Liu Yishen and said: "Mr. Liu Ge, after the end of spring this year, the enrollment of Royal Gewu Academy will begin, so you have to be more attentive!"

    Liu Yishen leaned forward and said: "I have already given instructions on this matter, but the specific teachings of Gewu Academy have not yet been decided. In addition, the teachers in the academy have not yet been settled. Your Majesty still needs to make a decision on this matter!"

    Zhu Youxiao thought for a moment, turned to look at Juliana, and asked: "What are taught in European universities?"

    Juliana thought for a moment and said: "Mathematics, philosophy, theology, natural science, as well as swordsmanship, riding, and social etiquette are mainly taught in mainstream European universities now!"

    &nbspZhu Youxiao smiled and said: "The Royal Academy of Gewu is also the first comprehensive university in the Ming Dynasty. It naturally teaches more things. In addition to classics such as Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, mathematics, engineering, archery, horseback riding and archery are all taught.  As for the teachers, it is easy to deal with. There are many teachers in the capital now. Instead of letting them spend all day in the museum, it is better to go to the Gewu College to teach. The teachers of mathematics and engineering asked Xu Guangqi to find a way. He knew many talents in this field.  If not, you can also hire Western scholars to teach. As for arching, horse riding, and shooting at the Guards, we can teach it. Anyway, we have just opened this university, so let¡¯s explore slowly!"

    Although Liu Yishen was a little dissatisfied with Zhu Youxiao asking about Juliana, he still agreed: "I know!"

    Zhu Youxiao suddenly said: "After I marry Concubine Ning next month, I will go to Nanjing"

    "Your Majesty!" Before Zhu Youxiao finished speaking, Fang Congzhe jumped up and said with a cold face: "Now that the country is not stable, it is really inappropriate for Your Majesty to patrol the place. Please take back your order!"

    Liu Yishen also stood up and said: "Your Majesty, Mr. Fang Ge is right. There is no owner in the East Palace now. It would be too dangerous for Your Majesty to leave the capital. Why don't you please be patient for a while and wait until the East Palace is stable before walking around?"  !¡±

    The main reason why Fang Congzhe and Liu Yishui are so opposed to Zhu Youxiao's outing is that Zhu Youxiao doesn't have a son yet. If he runs around now, someone might take advantage of him as the emperor!

    Zhu Youxiao naturally knew that such danger definitely existed, but he didn't pay much attention to it. Not to mention that he would be escorted by the Guards when he left the capital. Even his own martial arts had reached a very high level now!

    You must know that Qiao Wangjin, the current top player in the university, was trained by Zhu Youxiao, and when Qiao Wangjin played against Zhu Youxiao, he had never won. With such strength, Zhu Youxiao  The school is really not afraid that someone can touch him!

    Therefore, Zhu Youxiao just smiled indifferently to Fang and Liu's objections and said: "You two ministers are too worried. I went to Nanjing just to form the Guards Navy. I have already made plans to go to Nanjing this time.  There is no need for ceremonial guards, no notification to the place, only five thousand fine horses to accompany me, plus the protection of Dongchang, I believe no one can harm me, and this time I will go quickly and return quickly, which is about ten days.  What danger could there be?"

    Fang Congzhe still shook his head like a rattle and said: "Your Majesty's words are wrong. Your Majesty has a body of ten thousand gold and is responsible for the safety of the world. How can you leave the capital casually? If someone who is interested in finding out your Majesty's whereabouts, there will inevitably be people.  I cannot bear to say what happened, so I sincerely request your Majesty to never visit Nanjing!"
