After the Lantern Festival in the third year of Wude, all things in the world revived, and major events in the court began to take place.
Zhu Gaoxu must first send Sheng Yong and other generals to North Korea; until late next month, the fleet carrying the main force of the official naval and army will set sail from the ports in the lower reaches of the river.
The Longjiang Port was shrouded in a little wet fog, which made today's farewell scene unable to show its full pomp.
The treasure ship docked on the pier vaguely revealed its huge body and high masts, and the scene was faintly visible, like a mirage.
Zhu Gaoxu led civil and military officials to wait in a pavilion by the river for a while, and Sheng Yong, Ping'an and Liu Sheng arrived.The pavilion was very small, so Zhu Gaoxu walked out in the direction where the three of them came.
Sheng Yong and several others knelt on the ground and gave a great gift first.
Zhu Gaoxu stepped forward and helped them up and said, "I heard that ancient emperors worshipped the generals for farewell to each other, and once used the ceremony of "holding the hub and pushing the wheel."Unfortunately, you are riding a horse this time, and I have no hub to support or wheels to push.
The generals immediately smiled slightly relaxed.
Zhu Gaoxu's tone changed and he said: However, my trust and earnestness in you are not at all different.
After hearing this, they clasped their fists and bowed, promising to do their best.
At this time, Pei Youzhen, the Minister of War, who was standing behind Zhu Gaoxu, bowed and said: When I was conquering Annan, I wrote a song. Today I will give away my farewell to Duke Shao, Duke E and Duke Anyuanhou. I ask to play a song to help you liven up and encourage you with the three generals.
Zhu Gaoxu nodded and said: Very good.
Pei Youzhen greeted the followers standing in the distance. When the followers came forward with musical instruments, he bowed to the people around him: "Wanli Jinling", he thought it was ugly.
As soon as the sound of Xiao sounded, Zhu Gaoxu was immediately attracted.He was a little surprised that only a bamboo silhouette and a pair of copper cymbals could show such a profound and majestic momentum.
With the title of the song reported by Pei Youzhen, the music immediately won Zhu Gaoxu's heart.
Zhu Gaoxu has very shallow music knowledge. He only learned basic music scores from Du Qianrui in the past two years. He found that his musical talent does not seem to be very high, mainly lacking the rhythm of the rhythm.
But on the other hand, he is very good at appreciating all kinds of music, perhaps because he has listened to it a lot.
At this time, the song played by Pei Youzhen was very desolate because the lead singer had only Yizhizhuxiao's superb expression method.
Zhu Gaoxu imagined it as if in the ancient wasteland era when there were sparsely populated people, the situation where ancestors cut through thorns and opened up territory.
However, Zhu Gaoxu believes that the world of this era should be very lively.
After listening to the song from the king and his subjects, Zhu Gaoxu did not say his feelings on the spot, but just stroking his hands and said: OK!I didn't know before that Mr. Pei had such talent.
Pei Youzhen said: I dare not take it.
Zhu Gaoxu turned his head and looked at the attendant in the pavilion and waved his hand gently.The eunuchs and guards immediately opened the jar, poured the wine into many bowls, and then brought it up.
The king and his ministers standing together all picked up the wine bowls one after another. Everyone held the bowl and looked at Zhu Gaoxu, as if waiting for something.
Zhu Gaoxu also understood that when the king and his ministers parted, they had to say something.
He held the wine bowl and pondered for a moment, and then said to the generals: Since ancient times, our country has been the sect leader in all directions of Shenzhou; therefore, it is called China, and the king is the common ruler.We must never give up our old sphere of influence, let alone give up our due status and dignity.In addition, since the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, our country has been the most advanced civilization country. We cannot be complacent in this world, but should find a way to break through barriers.Dear generals, I believe that in hundreds of years, future generations will be able to recognize you and praise you for your contributions to the country and the country.
Since these people are already people standing at the upper level of the empire, Zhu Gaoxu was willing to speak more angled words.How do you understand it? That is what they should understand.
Sheng Yong bent down with the wine bowl and said: The emperor is ambitious, I am very honored to be able to follow him and drive him to the emperor.
Ping An: Where does the saint attack? There is a reason for the saint to do so.Of course I will do as I do.
Liu Sheng said: I wish to promote the reputation of the emperor and spread it to the world.
Zhu Gaoxu raised the wine bowl and said: It’s done!
Dry!The civil and military ministers agreed.
The generals put down the wine bowl on the wooden plate, and knelt on the ground together, bowing to Zhu Gaoxu again.After they stood up, Sheng Yong clasped his fists and said, "I'm asking the emperor to wait for good news."
Zhu Gaoxu nodded, raised his hand and waved it gently.
Sheng Yong and others said goodbye and retreated, then took the reins given by the guards and led the horse to the pier by the river.Zhu Gaoxu led the crowd to stand still, watching the generals set off.
At this moment, the sky suddenly fell from raindrops.The eunuch's voice said: Take the umbrella over quickly.
The spring rain quickly fell, but the rain was not heavy, but it had already enveloped the scene ahead in the rain curtain.
Not far away, the soldiers wearing wide-brimmed hats and neat dresses lined up in the rain, still calm and motionless, watching the riverside with Zhu Gaoxu.
After the two ferries on the dock, carrying the generals and the guards left the shore, Zhu Gaoxu turned around and left the pavilion.
Zhu Gaoxu got on the four-horse driving carriage and took the honor guard team back to the city.
He looked out of the window and saw a river that flowed into the river.
The weeping willows on the river bank have already bloomed with tender green leaves, swaying in the misty light rain and breeze. At this moment, the scenery covered by misty rain is also full of spring.
Looking back suddenly, Zhu Gaoxu realized that three full years had passed since he officially ascended the throne.
During the past three years, Zhu Gaoxu did a lot of things; but at first thought, he seemed to have no particularly grand achievements.
He conquered Mongolia in the north, but the activities of the Mongolian tribes were not much different from before. He deployed a war in Annan Kingdom, but Annan Kingdom was conquered during the Yongle period, and Zhu Gaoxu even let the royal family of Annan Kingdom restore the country; the Ming navy went to the West, which was also something he did during the Yongle period.
Zhu Gaoxu even canceled some major events formulated during the Yongle period: moving the capital to Peiping, building a new imperial city, preparing for the planning of many Northern Expeditions, and editing the major events of the Yongle Ceremony.
The "Natural Works of the Art" ordered by Zhu Gaoxu to be edited and compiled does not seem to be so eye-catching, after all, it only involves technology.
What is the "Scientific Translation of All Countries" is only circulated among court ministers.
However, Zhu Gaoxu didn't care whether everything could be amazing.He just took the steps he thought were more reasonable, and believed that the current progress had been made in just three years, and it was already very fast.
If he had taken the name, he believed that as long as the history of history could record his actions truthfully, his career would be more recognized by future generations.
The premise is that he must walk more steadily, not fail so quickly, and not become a sudden innovation like Wang Mang.
Of course, before being re-recognized, Zhu Gaoxu felt that he might be misunderstood for some years.
But compared to being an ancient wise monarch praised by scholars, Zhu Gaoxu was more willing to do something truly meaningful.
So he didn't feel that he was misunderstood and how wronged he was. It was just his choice.
In his concept, the national level and the progress of civilization are meaningful.
He pondered for a while, without any desire to change his mind, and still planned to go all the way to the end.
Zhu Gaoxu lifted the curtain and said: Pei Youzhen, ask Pei Youzhen to get in the car.
The general of the Jinyiwei next to him immediately clasped his fists and agreed, turning his head and shouting: The emperor has an order, Pei Youzhen, the Minister of the Ministry of Propaganda, took the same position.
The imperial edict was passed again.After a while, Pei Youzhen, who was following behind, rode a horse to the back of the imperial carriage and got on the carriage.
After Pei Youzhen greeted him, Zhu Gaoxu said directly: The regiment dragon, sun and moon flag used in our army can be used as national flags.I think I should choose a national anthem and perform it at flag raising or certain ceremonies.I think the song "Wanli Jinling" by Mr. Pei is good.
Pei Youzhen was shocked and said happily: I don’t know if I can be regarded as rituals and music, or I can discuss it with the court officials.
Zhu Gaoxu ignored Pei Youzhen's suggestions. After all, the dynasty has never had such a national flag and anthem. What's there to discuss?
However, this song may be a bit too sad and inappropriate as a ritual music.Zhu Gaoxu said, I thought about it for a while and felt that this feeling had nothing to do with the rhythm, but the effect caused by Xiao Sheng's solo.
Pei Youzhen nodded and said: The emperor is in the previous language.When I compose this song, I never thought of serving as ritual and music.Just because of my experience of following the battle, I saw the battlefield and the soldiers went deep into the wilderness; I felt deeply that the grand ambition of Jinling thousands of miles away was heavy and desolate, and Xiao Sheng was just like this.
Zhu Gaoxu pondered: Will the effect change if you use more wind music together?
Blow horizontally.Pei Youzhen suddenly said, changing to the military instruments playing the flute horizontally, and adding more pairs of copper cymbals will surely resolve the sorrow and turn it into a magnificent artistic conception.
Zhu Gaoxu nodded and said: Very good. After you re-arrange it, come to Rouyi Hall to perform.
Pei Youzhen bowed and said, "I will receive the order."
Zhu Gaoxu didn't say anything anymore and picked up the map at hand to see it.This is a sea chart from the Southeast Asian country, which has nothing to do with the major events that are being conquered by Japan recently.
After a while, Zhu Gaoxu found that Pei Youzhen seemed surprised by this picture, so he said: The song Pei Shilang played is indeed good today, and I have quite a sense of it.It is very important to play a song with an orderly and precise rhythm.
Pei Youzhen said: It turns out that the emperor is also proficient in music.
Zhu Gaoxu shook his head and said nothing.
After a moment of silence, Zhu Gaoxu said again: The Battle of Conquest is expected to start between March and April, and the entire battle may last for several months.Regardless of the length of the war, it will take at least several months to truly achieve the goal of the government army stationed in Shijianguo.
During this period, we don’t have to wait for the results.Chameng and Zhenla have three excellent seaports in total and are on the only way for sea boats to evacuate the West. We should try to include the garrison of the official army and set it as a stronghold to open up mature routes.
Pei Youzhen said: The emperor is far-sighted.
Zhu Gaoxu must first send Sheng Yong and other generals to North Korea; until late next month, the fleet carrying the main force of the official naval and army will set sail from the ports in the lower reaches of the river.
The Longjiang Port was shrouded in a little wet fog, which made today's farewell scene unable to show its full pomp.
