The noise outside the Ganqing Palace had already alarmed Emperor Chongzhen. Chongzhen had to put down the pen he was holding and looked outside the hall coldly.

Wang Chengen, who was accompanying him, secretly complained that something was wrong. Outside the hall was the noise of the prince. The prince was becoming more and more lawless.

In the important place of the Ganqing Palace, he trespassed without being summoned. What did Zhu Cilang want to do?

You should know that this is the Ming Dynasty. The palace rules of the Ming Dynasty were extremely strict. Unlike the opening of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, the lenient and kindness of the Song Dynasty. The rules and etiquette in the palaces of the Ming Dynasty were extremely strict, and if you make any mistakes, you will be punished.

Even the emperor must follow the emperor's rituals. This is related to the royal dignity and supreme dignity.

Living like this is very tiring, but for the sake of your supreme rights, some people seem to enjoy it. After all, this is the emperor.

A major feature of the founding of the Ming Dynasty was that it had many rules. Starting from the royal family, there were regulations on everything from food, clothing, housing, and it was illegal if you were not careful. The rules of court education were even more strict. Zhu Yuanzhang was born into a poor man and had not read many books, but obviously he understood the principle of "no matter how poor he could not be poor in education", and the rules of court education in the Ming Dynasty were basically established by him.

The founding emperor Zhu Yuanzhang did have some tricks. Not only did he fight, but he also had his own unique method of governing the country.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was born as a cowherd, obviously even if he was literate, he would not have studied much. Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang, who became the emperor, set an example and studied humbly.

According to the "History of Ming Dynasty", it is called "Let Confucians explain the meaning of ancient calligraphy", that is, the civil officials and counselors around him give him lectures, mainly talking about history - the history of emperors conquering the world and governing the country in history. The purpose is also very simple. Learn now and use it now, and learn what tricks are useful.

The person Zhu Yuanzhang was most interested in was Liu Bang, and he learned the most. From dealing with people to fighting strategies and strategies, many of them followed suit. When waiting for the founding of the Ming Dynasty, most of the Confucian scholars who gave lectures to him became important officials of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, such as Li Shanchang, the first prime minister of the Ming Dynasty, and Liu Bowen, the famous military advisor of the Left Censor of the Ming Dynasty. This method of learning in the war era was also preserved in an institutionalized manner, becoming two commonly used educational systems that ran through the rise and fall of the Ming Dynasty - the Jingyan and the Japanese lecture.

The "Classic Seminar" is held almost every day, and every day, civil servants and scholars are summoned to discuss the rise and fall of the country's governance in the past dynasties. Later, I was busy with work, but I still couldn't let go of the "Classic Seminar" and had to be held every few days. Not only did I listen to others' lectures, but I also expressed my own opinions and the contents of discussion were mainly "The Great Learning", "The Book of Documents", "The Book of Changes", and "Tang Laws". Not only did I discuss academic content, but I used it to the present, and discussed policies for governing the country. After the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the formulation of many laws, and even the establishment of education, military, diplomatic systems, were discussed in this way.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang had a bad temper. He did not blindly worship Confucian culture, but also put forward some of his own suggestions.

For example, this Zi said. Any words of Zi said are the words of saints. For people in the feudal era, it is the golden rule.

Needless to say, Confucius was named Confucius's sage. Mencius was also a representative figure of Confucianism.

This is actually not a good thing to say too much. As the saying goes, too much will lead to mistakes. Although, as one of the representative figures of Confucianism, some of Mencius's discourses have been respected by the world.

But Mencius said this: Mencius told King Xuan of Qi: "If a king treats his ministers as his hands and feet, then his ministers regard him as his heart; if a king treats his ministers as his dogs and horses, then his ministers regard him as his countrymen; if a king treats his ministers as his earth, then his ministers regard him as his enemies."

Just this sentence completely angered Zhu Yuanzhang, and Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily: "If this old guy lived until now, I would definitely kill him."

Of course, Mencius himself was not cut off by Zhu Yuanzhang, but his statue of Mencius was moved out of the Confucius Temple by Zhu Yuanzhang. Mencius' qualification to enjoy the Confucius Temple for thousands of years was abolished by Zhu Yuanzhang.

The education and training system of the crown prince in the Ming Dynasty was first formulated by Zhu Yuanzhang. In order to educate the heirs, Zhu Yuanzhang took great pains to build a library for his son - the Great Building Hall.

Being the prince in the Ming Dynasty was a very tiring thing. Originally, Zhu Cilang should have been locked up and read and practiced calligraphy every day.

Fortunately, when the Qing Dynasty was detained, Zhu Cilang led his troops to fight. The situation was special, and Zhu Cilang showed amazing talent again, so these palace rules and etiquettes were much more relaxed for him.

Being relaxed does not mean that you can do whatever you want. Without being summoned, you will trespass into the palace. Without a reasonable explanation, Emperor Chongzhen will not let him go.

As the highest ruler in ancient feudal dynasties, the emperor also had a royal system to operate, but the emperor system of all dynasties always had flaws. The emperor's power was easily delegated to the hands of eunuchs or relatives around him. Once a person who was originally far away from the operation of the court had political power, he could easily enter the original operation of the court and cause damage and conflicts to the original political system, thus causing turmoil in the political situation of the court.

Zhu Yuanzhang learned from the lessons of his previous generations and paid special attention to the internal environment. Establishing a strict internal education system, which had an important impact on the political life of the Ming Dynasty. Whether concubines or eunuchs interfered in politics became an important indicator of whether the ancient royal family was peaceful.

The ritual system in the harem was very strict and was a place of political power, so the harem was placed in a distance between inside and outside by rulers of all dynasties, which was even more strict in the Ming Dynasty. The concubines in the Ming Dynasty were more closed in the palace than in previous dynasties with strict etiquette and laws.

Emperor Chongzhen didn't say anything, he was waiting for Zhu Cilang to speak.

Zhu Cilang was no longer polite: "Father, don't check it again. If you continue to investigate, something big will happen!"

"What do you mean? Are you talking about the officials who were searched?" Chongzhen looked at him coldly.

Zhu Cilang nodded: "It's these officials, let's stop at the right time."

Emperor Chongzhen hummed contemptuously: "You are the one who said you were searching for corrupt officials, and you are the one who said you should not investigate again. Prince, what do you want to do and what do you want to do."

Emperor Chongzhen was a little confused, not only he couldn't understand. Lai Fu, Meng, Fan Chao and others didn't understand, and even Zhu Cilang himself couldn't understand what he wanted to do.

But there is another clear answer in my mind: to cure greed, you must not continue like this. Or, you cannot use factory guards anymore.

Chongzhen had no intention of stopping. Now the national treasury is full of energy. Most of the money is searched for the income of corrupt officials.

With this money, the court can do things that they wanted to do but could not do before. For example, building water conservancy, repairing palaces, worshiping heaven and ancestors, etc., all of which require money.
