    The three bachelors have been exhausted mentally and physically recently, and they have never felt so tired.  **Bubble! Book.  * Regarding the examination method, their subordinates and students almost bothered them to death, making them restless day and night. When they sat in the office to review the memorials during the day, they obviously lacked energy and felt sleepy.

    But they still had to work hard to quell the strong dissatisfaction of the ministers against Li Dong. What kind of king was he? He almost met all the standards of a faint king in history. He supported his trusted eunuchs to control the government and allowed them to engage in corruption and fraud;  He is friendly to warriors, is aggressive in military affairs, disregards the country's financial difficulties, loves great achievements, and is good at picking fights; he is not unfaithful to scholar-bureaucrats, and he will raise a knife handle to beat civil servants if he makes the slightest mistake; he loves ease and enjoyment personally, does not respect the laws of his ancestors, and does not imitate the sages and sages.  words.  .  .

    If you say this, it doesn't matter. If you, Li Dong, are your foolish emperor, the government affairs will naturally be taken care of by us scholar-bureaucrats. But I don't know what Li Dong did wrong, but he came up with some test method to torture us.  , the dissatisfaction of civil and military officials towards Li Dong has almost reached the point of explosion. Some people are even secretly collaborating in private to organize the first collective strike of officials in the Ming Dynasty for a hundred years. I will not serve you anymore. Let¡¯s see what you do!

    Perhaps because he had gotten wind of it in advance, or perhaps because he was tired of the courtiers' endless petitions to impeach Liu Jin, Li Dong called the three great scholars to him and said that he would study in seclusion again. Within a month, all the affairs of the court and central government were handled by the three great scholars.  Making the decision together with the Chief of Ceremonies, the three bachelors exchanged glances with each other, with wry smiles on their faces.

    They no longer care whether Li Dong is really studying in seclusion. They just hope that the living ancestor will not come up with something novel like the test method to stimulate them when he comes out of seclusion next time. They  They are not young anymore, and their hearts are not very good. They want to live for two more years, so that they can safely complete the tasks assigned to them by Emperor Hongzhi during their lifetime, and help Li Dong become a wise king.

    Fortunately, the examination method proposed by Li Dong this time was indeed beneficial to the country and the people. Deep down in their hearts, the three great scholars fully supported this new policy. They actively cooperated with Li Dong and tried their best to suppress the ministers.  , these three people have been in the cabinet for many years, and have controlled the center since the Hongzhi Dynasty. Their disciples and former officials are all over the Ming Dynasty officialdom, so when the three of them speak, no official dares to disobey.

    Naturally, this retreat was Li Dong's excuse, because he had something he had planned for a long time to kill Han Dongkai. From the first time Li Dong dealt with Han Dongkai, he vowed to kill him. Li Dong was right  Even Yanda Khan, the old enemy of the Ming Dynasty, did not show such a strong murderous intention.

    As for why, Li Dong himself couldn't explain it. It is said that Han Dongkai and Chen Xin were both pirates, and they were both heroes. They were both characters who could be used by Li Dong. However, after Li Dong learned about Han Dongkai's growth experience,  , completely gave up this idea. Han Dongkai is different from Chen Xin. In Han Dongkai's heart, the only thing he values ????is power and status. What he masters best is the philosophy of life such as "cutting the grass and root out" and "no poison and no husband".  The character will never be willing to be controlled by others, and he can easily backfire on him if he is not careful.

    Since he can't be used by Li Dong, and he has such skills, it's okay to be kind-hearted, but Han Dongkai led the Japanese to kill the people, which violated Li Dong's taboo, so Li Dong cited this person as a serious problem.  Li Dong would have trouble sleeping and eating if he didn't kill him. Li Dong had never planned for such a long time for one thing. In order to deal with Han Dongkai, Li Dong even used conspiracies that he usually didn't care about. He could handle this matter completely.  It was left to Chen Xin to do it, but he didn't. He personally took charge and planned it. He would never give Han Dongkai any chance to make a comeback. He wanted to see Han Dongkai die with his own eyes.

    Li Dong's seclusion this time was not entirely because of Han Dongkai's affairs. He just wanted to take a breather in Tianjin. The capital, the palace, and the officialdom were so oppressive that he could hardly breathe. Only Tianjin truly belonged to Li Dong, and only Tianjin truly belonged to Li Dong.  It was there that Li Dong could truly release himself, and there were a group of people worthy of his trust waiting for him.

    Chen Xin has been back to Tianjin for a while. For Li Dong's big plan, he spent almost the whole winter running back and forth on the sea regardless of the severe cold. He used to be a powerful sea tycoon, but he had never endured such hard work since he was born.  But now he is willing to do so. His father, King Zhenhai, once sent a message to him: "Son, if you come back if you are unhappy, why do you have to suffer?"

    Chen Xin¡¯s reply to his father was, ¡°Father, don¡¯t you want to see what your hometown looks like now?¡±

    After returning to Tianjin, he hid in his study and read all day long, because he really had nothing to do except reading. Sometimes he even wondered if Li Dong had forgotten about going to sea with him to kill Han Dongkai.  Knowing that Li Dong is now the ninth emperor of the Ming Dynasty, there is no need for him to kill a small pirate personally. Naturally, there are a lot of people willing to do this job.??

    Chen Xin really wants to see what the navy that Li Dong promised him is like, but the 1,200 soldiers are currently training in the capital. It is said that they are coming to Tianjin with Li Dong, so he doesn't have a single soldier at the moment.  , No, there is one, a soldier who cannot be seen all day long, Agudamu.

    "Compared to Chen Xin's distress, Agudamu is very happy. He is well fed and well clothed. The most important thing is that his sister Ulunzhurig has been sent to Tianjin Xincheng by Haina Trading Company.

    Li Dong personally handed over the matter to Haina Trading Company. The several shopkeepers naturally regarded this matter as a top priority. According to Agudamu's description, his tribe is not difficult to find. For a female slave with no relatives or connections,  , the leader of the tribe naturally had no reluctance to part with it. With just a piece of soap, the leader was already laughing so hard that he could hardly open his eyes.

    Ulunzhurig sat in a fine carriage and was sent to Tianjin City in fine clothes and fine food along the way. After arriving in Tianjin City, Tianjin Governor Zhao Xingbang was very distressed. He could not understand Ulunzhurig and Li.  What is the relationship between Li Dong and Li Dong? What if this is also Li Dong's Mongolian lover? In any case, he could not be neglected, so he spent his own money to rent a yard for Ulunzhu Rige alone in Tianjin City, and then hired several servants.  To serve.

    If Li Dong knew what he was thinking, he would definitely slap her with a slap in the face. It's not that Ulunzhu is not beautiful, but she has to be an adult to be beautiful. What can Li Dong think of a little girl who is only seven or eight years old?

    But Li Dong's lack of ideas does not mean that others have no ideas. As soon as Wu Lunzhurig arrived in Tianjin, he immediately let someone take notice and directly ordered Zhao Xingbang, I want this person.  He sent it over because that person was Li Dong¡¯s favorite girl, Xiaofeng. Because Li Dong didn¡¯t want Xiaofeng to enter the palace and be controlled and learn all the rules in the palace, he wanted Xiaofeng to be in a free environment.  To grow up, he left Xiaofeng alone in Tianjin and arranged a large group of smart eunuchs to serve Xiaofeng.

    But Xiaofeng is very unhappy. It's not that anyone dares to neglect her. Everyone who knows Xiaofeng knows that with Li Dong's love for her, this girl will definitely be named a princess in the future. She will be a golden person. Everyone  They all carefully cared for this porcelain doll, but Xiaofeng was still unhappy because she had no playmates. A four or five-year-old child was surrounded by adults, and they all treated her with fear and awe. It was boring and really very boring.  Boring.

    Suddenly, a little girl about the same age as her came to Tianjin. This made Xiaofeng very happy. Although the two people could not understand each other at all, this did not hinder the communication between the two children.  Yeah, you can understand what the other person is going to say by making gestures. The two of them get together, eat and live in the same room, hold hands wherever they go, chatter all day long, it¡¯s so lively, Xiaofeng is happy, Wu Lunzhu Rige  He was happy, but Agudamu was crying. Some people saw him running alone in the wilderness and kneeling for a long time in the direction of the grassland.

    Since then, Agudamu has changed. Although he is still as boring as a gourd and doesn't like to say a word, he loves to laugh. He smiles naively when he sees everyone. He especially smiles at one person the most, but that person  The person who beats him with a stick all day long is the meat-loving Bao Er.

    The way Mongolians treat a person well is very simple. He will treat that person with all his enthusiasm, not to mention that person is his savior. Agudamu runs to Bao Er every day to help Bao Er.  He did this and helped Bao Er do that, but Bao Er acted indifferent to him.

    Bao Er is now the head of the same group. He alone has the final say on the entire water transport connecting the north and south. He used to be a martial artist, but now he is asked to do management work. It was really tricky at first. Fortunately, Li Dong gave him a job.  A very detailed organizational chart. Each water transportation hub has an incense owner. These incense owners are selected by local water transportation coolies. They are re-elected every three years and are not allowed to be re-elected. Bao Er only needs to control these incense owners.  He can control the entire water transportation, and Bao Er also let Lin Qing and others out. If there is any trouble in the entire water transportation, he will know it immediately.

    One day Bao Er looked at Agudamu who was sweeping the yard at his house, and then took out a portrait, hung it in the middle of the main hall, and asked Agudamu to kowtow three times to the portrait. Agudamu didn't know why, but Bao Er's order  , let alone kowtow a few times, he would not hesitate to remove one of his legs now.  So he kowtowed three times.

    From that day on, Agudamu¡¯s hard life began. Every day Bao Er would beat him with a stick thicker than Agudamu¡¯s arm.

    "I asked you to move. Didn't I say you won't move until you stand still for an hour? You're still moving."

    ¡°Go, bring that stone mill over here!¡±

    "Didn't you just hug me?" Agudamu asked naively

      "Pa" Bao Eryi's stick took his turn, "I'll hug you if I ask you to, there's so much nonsense!"

    "oh"

    "Don't put it down! Lift it three times and then put it back down!"

    "oh"

    This straightforward Mongolian man didn't understand why Bao Er tortured him, and made him squat there like a stupid donkey without moving, or hold the dead stone mill back and forth. Every time he opened his mouth, he would definitely get a meal.  The beating would hurt him a little at first, but slowly he became numb, and the stone mill didn't seem as heavy as it was at first.  .  .

    Even though Bao Er was very cruel to Agudamu, there was someone he was afraid of, and he was scared to death. That person was his daughter-in-law Du Juan. Li Dong asked the imperial doctors to see Du Juan's eyes. The imperial doctors all shook their heads and said there was no hope.  But this did not affect Du Juan's mood. Her face was filled with happiness. She was cheerful and easy-going to everyone except Bao Er.

    "Auntie, what do you want to eat tonight?" Bao Er and San asked Du Juan as if they were grandchildren.

    "casual."

    "How about we eat roast duck?"

    ¡°Don¡¯t eat if it¡¯s fatty!¡±

    "Oh, how about we eat hot pot?"

    "How many months have it been and you are still eating hot pot? Do you want me to get angry?!"

    "Don't dare, don't dare. The boiled fish that came out of the palace last month is said to be a delicacy in the world. My aunt, may I invite you to eat at Longbao?" Bao Er asked with a low eyebrow.

    "Longbao? How much money will it cost? Are you saving money for your private life behind my back?"

    "No way, I have always managed my money for you. If you don't believe me, just dig it out!"

    "I'm sorry you don't dare!"

    "Grandma, what do you want to eat?" Bao Er asked with a smile on his face.

    "casual."

    Every time at this time, squatting aside and doing Agudamu, I feel very relieved.  .  .

    It has been more than three months since Jiang Qin arrived in Tianjin. He was recuperating from his injuries for more than a month. After he could walk in the fields, Governor Zhao Xingbang couldn't wait to arrange a job for him. The first job he had to do was to find faults and use a  To give some views on Tianjin from an outsider's perspective, Jiang Qin spent a full month traveling around Tianjin, and this month brought him enough shock.

    At first, Jiang Qin was deeply moved by the prosperity of Tianjin. As a censor, Jiang Qin had visited many places in the Ming Dynasty. However, after comparing those places with Tianjin, he gradually developed an illusion, as if this place was a paradise, not the territory of the Ming Dynasty.  In general, there is no doubt that Tianjin people are wise people, but their mental outlook is not like that. They are very independent, very disciplined, very good at making money, and very good at enjoying themselves. Tianjin people have their own purpose. That sentence is highly praised.  Hang it high on the tower to avoid causing trouble to others.  ¡¯ Tianjin people do the same thing.

    A month later, Jiang Qin made a suggestion to Zhao Xingbang. The huge city of Tianjin didn¡¯t even have an academy.

    Three days after the suggestion was made, the first academy in Tianjin was established. This academy was called Longyuan Academy. It was jointly sponsored by six casinos in Tianjin. It also invited famous local old masters as lecturers in several prefectures around Tianjin.  It implements a completely free education method. Not only can books be read for free, but food and accommodation are also paid for by the Tianjin Governor's Office.  However, free education is only provided to residents with Tianjin household registration. Students from other places need to be academicians or above to enjoy such treatment.

    Five days later, the Tianjin Governor-General ordered the Tianjin Education Department to be established, and the first director was Jiang Qin.

    "If Zhao Xingbang offered Jiang Qin such an official position when he first arrived in Tianjin, he would have politely refused. He used to be a censor of the fifth rank. What rank is the governor of Tianjin?  Who is the director of the Department of Education?  However, after he stayed in Tianjin for several months and came into contact with the scenery of Tianjin, his mood changed. He readily accepted the appointment as director of the Department of Education. He vaguely seemed to understand why Li Xiang wanted to save him. He understood  He knew the intentions of the person standing behind Li Xiang. He had a lot to say to that person, but he didn't know when he would be able to meet him again!
