The emperor left very casually.

He left his three confidant ministers and eldest sons alone.

Xia Yuanji, Song Li and Jin Chun looked at Zhu Gaochi silently.

The prince shrugged: "Since Your Majesty said that, the three old men will eat here before returning to the city."

None of the three moved.

The eyes continued to communicate.

Finally, Song Li slowly spoke: "Your Highness, do you think it's time to innovate now?"

Zhu Gaochi shook his head.

Just when the three of them thought that the prince also felt that this was not a good time for the court to promote innovation.

Zhu Gaochi said, "I don't know."

After Huizhou Prefecture solved the eight local surnames, the prince who took over the supervision of Huizhou's innovations in full, actually said at this time that he didn't know?

Such an answer made the three of them stunned.

Zhu Gaochi repeated again: "I don't know whether it is the right thing to expand the implementation of innovation at this time. But at least, we should try it!"

Xia Yuanji asked in a low voice: "Your Highness is worried about failure?"

Once the court determines the policy of reform, there will inevitably be resistance.

Once these people who have been touched with interests resist, their momentum will definitely come in full force.

Failure is accompanied by success.

Success is naturally the result of everyone's expectation.

But once it fails, it will never be possible for generations of the Ming Dynasty to mention innovation.

Regarding this.

Former Song Kejian!

Zhu Gaochi nodded and said, "Now the Ming Dynasty seems to be fighting in the east and the south, and the nine sides are stable, but it is like flowers cooking oil with brocade and fire. It is impossible to make a mistake in the wrong way. If it is wrong, it will never be restored!"

The opposition will always exist.

Even if it's just because you eat too much in the morning.

Or you step into the door with the wrong foot.

Jin Chun smiled and stood up, looking at everyone: "Are you all hungry? I'm hungry! Since Your Majesty said the food here is good, should we listen to Your Majesty?"

Xia Yuanji was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud: "What Your Majesty said is of course right! Go quickly! I am really hungry!"

...

Yingtian City.

On Jilong Mountain.

The emperor's imperial carriage left very quickly, and he didn't take much time to get here from the imperial village outside the city.

The car stopped at the foot of the mountain.

The little novice monk took the emperor and walked on the stairs up the mountain.

"How is the old monk?" Zhu Di asked with the little shaman.

Xiao Shami still looked respectful and humble, and said with Buddhist rituals: "Reply to Your Majesty, Master said that life and death are destined, and everything now is nothing more than God wants him to show."

Listening to the little novice monk's explanation, Zhu Di couldn't help but shake his head and smiled helplessly.

The old monk's words became more and more like a great monk.

Looking at the young Shami's tender cheeks, Zhu Di suddenly asked: "What do you want to do after your master dies?"

It was probably the first time I heard this question.

The little novice monk seemed very serious. He stopped completely, stood on the steps and frowned and thought seriously.

Zhu Di was not in a hurry, and accompanied the little novice monk to wait for the answer to the question.

After thinking for a long time, a smile appeared on the little shaman's face.

"Master has always said that there are fewer people nowadays, and I want to find what is this missing!" After saying that, the little shaman smiled as if he was self-deprecating.

It is hard to imagine that such a young novice monk would smile like this.

Zhu Di continued to ask: "Can you find it?"

The little shaking his head: "Master has never found it for his whole life, so I can't find it either. So, I want to go to the Qinhuai River..."

The reversal was too sudden, which made Zhu Di unable to deal with it for a while.

Such a little novice monk who stayed in a temple all day and ate vegetarian food and chanted Buddha's name, actually knew about the Qinhuai River?

The old monk is indeed not a serious thing!

It's simply a Buddhist shame!

Zhu Di felt a little angry, feeling that the old monk had been hiding on this mountain for many years and had not done much serious things, but it was a disaster for the Buddhist school.

He couldn't help but look calm and asked, "Is this what the old monk taught you?"

The little novice monk didn't think too much, and immediately shook his head: "No... it was what the grandson said to me when he came here before..."

Suddenly.

Zhu Di looked dark.

First of all, it was because he wronged the old monk.

Secondly, it was because he didn't expect that his baby grandson had taken the little novice monk.

So he became even more harsh: "What did Taisun say to you!"

The little shaki monk stretched out his hand and kept scratching his smooth head: "Taisun said that monks must also struggle in the world so that they can understand the true Dharma. I think Taisun was right, because I have read all the Buddhist scriptures of Master over the years, but I still haven't felt the Buddha..."

As he said that, the little shaman looked at the emperor with a firm look on his face: "So... I think that the grandson said it should be correct. He should go outside the temple to struggle. I think that only when he comes, he can truly feel the Buddha..."

It seems to make sense.

Zhu Di couldn't help but think of himself.

What was his dream when Emperor Taizu Gao was still there?

It was probably for the Ming Dynasty to guard the north forever, and even if there was a chance, he killed all the enemies in the north for Emperor Taizu Gao, then installed their heads in a carriage, set up a long line, planted the most gorgeous flag, and sent it to Yingtian City.

It was so good that he received praise from Emperor Taizu Gao.

Later, he hoped to become a good emperor.

But he also didn't know how a good emperor should become.

It was time and this world that made him a king like this.

Zhu Di couldn't help but nodded: "I will keep this secret for you. When the old monk dies, I will give you the will. You can do whatever you want!"

The first half is to use a private identity, and the second half is to use the emperor to make a promise.

The little shaman nodded confusedly. At his age and experience, he obviously did not understand what the emperor said.

The two people with very different identities and ages ended the brief conversation.

Zhu Di finally appeared in front of Yao Guangxiao's thatched hut.

At this time, the peach trees inside and outside the yard had already exposed flower buds.

Blooming is not just a matter of time.

A little bit of pink decorates the surrounding environment to bring natural harmony.

Even though he has been countless times over the years, Zhu Di is still a little confused about the strange habits of the old monk.

Peach blossoms are originally a beautiful thing that young boys and girls pursue.

But he became a monk.

The preference of an old monk!

When he opened the gate of the courtyard, Zhu Di saw a rattan chair placed under the largest peach tree in the courtyard.

Zhu Di remembered that the largest peach tree was discovered by him on the way back to Beijing, and then brought it back to plant it here in person.

There was a person lying on the rattan chair.

It's not someone else, it's the monk who made the entire Ming Dynasty know about it.

The sun is very bright today, but the wind outside is not small.

Zhu Di seemed a little unhappy when he saw this scene and frowned and looked around.

Except for Yao Guangxiao who was lying on a rattan chair, he could no longer see other people in the temple.

"Why are you the only one here? Should I cut off the heads of those bald donkeys?"
