Chapter 908(1/2)

Life goes on as usual.

After the ice and snow melt, it’s time for spring plowing every year.

As usual, Emperor Hongzhi ordered the British Duke Zhang Mao to replace the emperor and preside over the spring plowing ceremony.ъìQυGΕtV.℃ǒΜ

This year's spring rain seems to be particularly heavy.

It has been raining heavily for a month.

At the same time, there was news about spring floods in various places.

Emperor Hongzhi worked overtime with his ministers every day for state affairs.

The new version of Ming Dynasty banknotes took advantage of this disaster and was issued.

But the initiative to recover copper coins did not go smoothly.

After all, anyone who knows Ming Dynasty Baochao knows how much moisture it had before.

Those who don't know the Ming Dynasty treasure banknotes will naturally not want to use the copper coins they have saved so hard to exchange for a piece of paper they can't understand at all.

Regarding this.

Officials from various places are also complaining.

Many people wrote letters complaining about their difficulties and asking the court to withdraw their orders.

Emperor Hongzhi also had a headache after reading these memorials.

Various new policies encountered greater resistance than he imagined.

But there is nothing you can do, you can’t give up halfway.

He put these memorials aside, preparing to deal with them later.

The latter memorial is an excerpt saying that many outsiders have appeared in the capital recently, demanding that the capital's prevention and control be strengthened.

After the news spread that the scientific research institute was to be established, those forgotten mathematicians and craftsmen became energetic.

Many people packed their bags and wanted to go to the capital to see what this legendary scientific research institute was.

And they are also wondering whether their skills, which are not highly praised by the public, can provide their families with a job that provides them with food and clothing.

After Emperor Hongzhi read the memorial, he directly approved it.

Let people from the five cities strengthen patrols and strictly control crimes in the capital.

Zhu Houzhao was also looking at the list reported by his subordinates.

These lists were all just typed back by Zhao Ce.

The people on the list are diverse.

After screening, basically only one or two can be used.

Zhu Houzhao said a little discouraged: "Father, the scientific research institute is easy to establish."

"But people are really hard to recruit."

"Until now, we have only found one or two people."

The people found will basically have to go through an interview with Zhao Ce.

But Zhu Houzhao couldn't say what the interview rules were for Zhao Ce.

The two people left now basically have some attainments in arithmetic.

The rest were all beaten back.

Emperor Hongzhi heard his complaint and didn't know what to say.

After all, the scientific research institute is a new thing, and even if he is the emperor, he still knows little about it.

All he could say was: "You have to be patient in everything."

"You're not in a hurry anyway, just take your time."

Zhu Houzhao said "Oh" and muttered: "I just want to see it established as soon as possible."

"But since the Marquis of Dingxi is so strict, I don't have anything to worry about."

After saying that, he threw aside the list in his hand and diligently helped to deal with the memorials on the table.

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but feel a little amused when he saw him taking the initiative to help him again today.

Generally speaking.

When His Highness the Crown Prince was asked to help with political affairs, he would basically avoid it.

For this reason, he can find any excuse.

Occasionally, when the mood strikes, I help with some political affairs, and I will usually get some benefits for my hard work afterwards.

That is to say, Emperor Hongzhi was infected with malaria last year. During that time, Zhu Houzhao helped handle political affairs. That was a positive move.

However, this consciousness did not last long.

After seeing that he was in good health, he sneaked out to play.

Seeing how diligent he was today, Emperor Hongzhi didn't know if he had any small calculations in mind.

Just as I was thinking about it, an announcement came from outside.

"Your Majesty, the three pavilion elders are here."

It was already the time for discussion after the daily court meeting, and Emperor Hongzhi ordered people to invite them in quickly.

Liu Jian and the other three came in, sat down, and were about to discuss the major events of the past few days with the emperor.

Another announcement came from outside.

"Your Majesty, several adults have come outside and want to see Your Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Even if you meet the emperor, you still need to meet the prince?

Emperor Hongzhi didn't think anything else and said directly: "Pass."

About three or four people came.

Everyone holds a memorial in their hands.

"His Majesty."

After saluting, Emperor Hongzhi stretched out his hand and said: "My dearest friends, no courtesy."

Several people stood up, the leader holding a memorial.

"Your Majesty, I am here today to give you advice."

Advise?

Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Zhu Houzhao, and seemed to understand the purpose of this group of people.

Liu Jian and others sat in their seats and did not make a sound.

Instead, he watched steadily.

Emperor Hongzhi said warmly: "My beloved ministers, what you want to advise is..."

The leader held the memorial in his hand high and said directly: "I would like to ask your Majesty to withdraw the order to establish a scientific research institute."

"At the same time, please please His Highness the Crown Prince to straighten himself out!"

"Your Highness is the crown prince. He should care about state affairs and work hard to learn how to be a king."

"However, recently His Highness has been immersed in eccentric skills and tricks, neglecting his duties and neglecting his studies every day."

"Your Majesty is aware of this!"

"Please take back your life in time and don't let my Ming Prince's mind continue to be loose."

Those memorials of exhortation had just been put aside by Emperor Hongzhi.

These people wrote memorials to persuade them to be detained, so they simply came directly with them.

Face-to-face advice.

Zhu Houzhao looked at the memorials held high in their hands with some speechlessness.

Just know.

These civil servants cannot see themselves happy.

He was just helping, and he didn't do anything.

This group of people gathered around after hearing some rumors.

Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said: "My dear friends, you are serious in your words."

"The Scientific Research Institute was established with my personal consent, and it is a place where I want to contribute to the country."

"The prince's contribution can be regarded as his contribution to the country's political affairs."

However, Emperor Hongzhi's words obviously did not satisfy the people present.
