There is no nightlife in Tangquan Town, at least no public nightlife, but it does not mean that you have to go to bed as soon as it gets dark. Prince Condé from France did not go to bed at the moment, but was talking to a beautiful woman.

The beauty is Mary Mancini. She has been staying in this boring place in Tangquan Town for several days, but she has never been summoned by His Majesty the Ming Emperor. The emperor has decided to see her, but he has to queue up, and there are still about seven or eight days left.

We can meet each other.

So at this time, Miss Mancini wanted to seize the time to learn more about Emperor Zhu's situation from Prince Condai.

"He is a rather boring person!" said Prince Kong Dai. "He can't dance, doesn't like music, doesn't like painting, doesn't go to the theater, doesn't smoke, and doesn't drink very much. He also eats very moderately.

There are only four dishes and one soup for lunch and dinner.”

"Prince, who are you talking about?" Miss Mancini stared at her big, talkative eyes, "It can't be Cromwell, right?"

"Cromwell?" Prince Condé thought for a while and said with a smile, "It seems almost the same! His Majesty the Emperor is very similar to that Puritan lunatic. Of course, his attitude towards women is a little more open. You know, the Eastern monarch

They are not likely to engage in monogamy. They usually have a harem filled with beauties. His Majesty the Emperor also has his harem, but the number is not large. There are only eight women in total, two of whom were selected for him by his father.

He entered the palace when he was still the prince.

His empress and the imperial concubine were the most noble women, and they were both from political marriages. Among them, the empress Wu Sanmei came from the general family of the Wu family, and the imperial concubine Zheng Chagu came from the richest family in the Ming Dynasty and a naval general.

The third and fourth women in the palace also came from political marriages. They came from the royal family of the Qing Dynasty of the Tatar Dynasty that was defeated by His Majesty the Emperor.

There is also a talented woman from Shanghai who should be the academic companion of His Majesty the Emperor. There is also a female Tatar vassal who was captured by His Majesty the Emperor and entered the palace as a slave girl. It seems that she is still a slave girl now."

The "Tatar female vassal prince" mentioned by Prince Kong Dai was Kong Sizhen. Because Kong Tingxun mixed water when fulfilling the contract and turned Shunzhi into Kangxi, Kong Sizhen, the middleman, lost the opportunity to be promoted to the selection attendant, but for her

It's not much different

Miss Mancini frowned, thinking that eight women is a lot! I wonder what they look like? If they are similar to the ugly ones in the European royal family, it will be fine. If they are all beauties, it will be troublesome.

Thinking of this, she sighed quietly, "I wonder who His Majesty the Emperor will sleep with tonight?"

If Emperor Zhu Da could hear Mancini's sighs and questions at this moment, he would definitely sigh in return.

Because he is working overtime tonight!

There are eight beauties in the harem, and there is a little Western beauty waiting outside the palace who is going to be his mistress, but he has to be busy working overtime. This is undoubtedly the most painful thing for Zhu Cixi right now!

Moreover, he did not work overtime at Laoshan Palace, but worked overtime at Laoshan Hunting Ground to personally supervise the joint military drills of the nine-sided teenagers at the Martial Arts Hall, Laoshan Middle School, and Laoshan Castle!

This military exercise has been planned for a long time. It will start on the afternoon of September 15th and will last for five days and five nights. The venue for the exercise is the Laoshan Hunting Ground, which is the Laoshan Mountain area covering an area of ​​ten square kilometers. Emperor Zhu

He chose this land as his "political capital" because, besides being close to Nanjing, he also liked this mountainous area that could be used for military training.

Students from the Jiangwu Hall, Laoshan Middle School students and the hard-working Jiubian boys are regularly organized to conduct military drills together in order to maintain the martial arts and hard-working spirit of the successors of the Kenan Xungui Group!

Zhu Cihong, who is 28 years old this year and has been in power for 12 years, has already been cultivating successors to feudalism for a long time!

On the issue of successors, he is very self-aware. He knows that the Kenan Xungui Group he relies on is only a "ZTE Group" and not a founding group. ZTE Group will more or less inherit the various enterprises in the era of decline.

This is a bad habit, and the foundation of ZTE is not to tear down and restart, so the whole society is also filled with the atmosphere of corruption. In this case, the ZTE Group is particularly prone to corruption. Once the ZTE Group becomes corrupt, the ZTE of the Ming Dynasty will also be corrupted.

It is no longer sustainable.

In order to sustain the ZTE situation that he finally created, Zhu Cixi chose the Pukou-Laoshan area outside the bustling Nanjing area as the political center of the empire and the place where nobles gathered. He also strictly suppressed the extravagant style of Pukou-Laoshan,

A large number of new schools were also opened in Pukou and Laoshan to train new nobles of the Ming Dynasty!

Of course the Ming Dynasty needed new nobles!

Zhu Cixi knew that he was an emperor, not a civilian leader. As an emperor, he had to rely on the nobility to rule. Of course, the political power could be opened to civilians to a certain extent, allowing examinations to serve as officials, opening political meetings, and encouraging (actually buying) the Nine Borders.

The young man joined the army, but the emperor must not forget that the core of the ruling group could only be the nobility, especially the military nobility!

The decay of the aristocracy means the decline of imperial power, and the loss of control of the aristocracy means the decline of imperial power.

Zhu Cixi now wants to keep the Ming imperial power that he has preserved as strong as possible. The only way is to create an aristocratic group that supports the imperial power, is simple and martial, and is shrewd and powerful.

To achieve this goal, it can only be achieved through strict training and education in the so-called aristocratic schools. Aristocratic education will be hated by people in later generations. But Zhu Cixiang had no choice. He was the emperor, and he gathered in Laoshan

The surrounding Kenan nobles were originally nobles.

How could he not cultivate and teach the second and third generations who would overcome difficulties and become nobles?

The world in the future will have to rely on them to fight for it! The fundamental reason for the Tumubao Incident and the subsequent decline of the Ming Dynasty was actually the decay and weakness of the Ming Dynasty Xungui Group itself.

If they themselves were not decayed and weak, the Grand Master would have been cut into eight pieces long ago. The civil servants in Beijing would not be able to use any dirty tricks, so they would have replaced the Tai Master's strength with the chops of Zhu Yuanzhang's generation.

With experts here, how dare you risk your death by running to the Great Wall?

Therefore, educating these second and third generations is Zhu Cixiang’s top priority right now, and he must do it himself.

Therefore, on this night, there was not a single beautiful woman around the Ming Dynasty's Nine-Fifth Emperor (of course you have to bring beautiful women to accompany you when you go to fight far away, but you can't bring women when you are doing exercises at home, otherwise it will look too decadent), only a group of well-armored imperial guards.

.

The Ming Emperor took this group of guards and rode his Arabian horses to patrol the camp at the western foot of Laoshan.

Youths and teenagers from Jiangwu Hall, Laoshan Middle School, and Jiubian Youth Camp, whether they are royal clan members, princes from the Duke’s family, the Marquis’ family, or poor teenagers from several border towns, are all now

They have the same treatment. They carry all their luggage, march on foot, set up camp, and cook their own meals. Now they eat in a circle in a company-based unit.

You don't dare to complain, because the emperor himself is patrolling in the camp, so no matter how hard and tired you are, you have to pretend to be full of energy. When you see the emperor coming surrounded by the guards and cavalry, you have to shout "Long live the mountain!"

Amidst the cheers, Zhu Cixiang finally felt a little relieved. Of course he knew that most of the thousands of teenagers in front of him were pretending that they were actually missing the hard beds in school. What about the soft beds at home? A maid who warms the bed? That’s impossible!

Both Jiangwu Hall and Laoshan Middle School have students living there! They sleep on hard beds and eat in the cafeteria. They are completely militarized. Not to mention maids, there are no book boys or old servants! Only when you go home on vacation can you cuddle with the maids. If you can't hold her, you can only go with your own maid, don't go to Nanjing to look for flowers and flowers, the Pukou Pier is guarded by dedicated personnel, and underage aristocratic children are not allowed to cross the river.
