Chapter 797: Breaking the Jar

Author: Xi Fengjin
last update Last Updated: 2024-08-03 14:45:33

Recently, Zhu Gaoxu has been running every night and has maintained his weight and energy. But he rarely cares about the specific affairs of the DPRK.

Gao Xianning, minister of Dali Temple, recommended a sixth-grade official to Zhu Gaoxu. It is said that this person supported the reform and was quite talented.

The man's name was Song Li. He was born as a supervisor of the Imperial Academy and had a low reputation. He was able to become an official because he caught up with the good times. During the Hongwu period, the court was in short supply of civil servants, and many people with no serious reputation were selected to serve as officials.

Song Li served as a local official, an official in the Ministry of Household Affairs, and managed floods. His highest position was the Minister of Works during the Yongle period. However, he stood in the wrong place during the "Deposed Prince" period. Although Wu Dechu was exempted from the death penalty, he was demoted t

    Amid the noisy sounds and smoke filled with the pungent smell of coking coal, Zhu Gaoxu wandered around. He roughly understood the process of making coins and what techniques the mint used.It's just that Zhu Gaoxu didn't fully understand the specific production process for a while, which didn't matter; just like Song Li, who was in charge of this matter, he probably didn't understand everything either. He just had to find the right person and arrange everything.Zhu Gaoxu walked out of a room and stood next to a water gate. He took out the two copper coin samples given by Song Li from his sleeve pocket and looked over them again.The exquisite copper coin has a smooth surface and bright color. There are four large characters on each side, as well as some small characters. The front side reads "Wu De Tong Bao" and the bottom has four small characters "Central Bank"; the back side reads "Tianxia Tongxing" and the bottom has a small line of numbers. Because it

    After a long discussion in the living room in the courtyard, Zhu Gaoxu said he wanted to dust off his clothes and take a rest. He left the living room and went to another room in the courtyard, followed by two trusted eunuchs.Zhu Gaoxu changed his clothes and washed his face while the eunuchs fetched water.But Zhu Gaoxu did not show up again, so he sent Zhang Sheng, the commander of the Imperial Guard, to prepare another carriage and select some followers. After everything was arranged, he went out through the back door and left the mint.After a while, the eunuch Cao Fu went to the courtyard to announce the decree, asking the civil and military officials who were resting to follow the emperor back to the imperial city. Naturally, the emperor could no longer appear in public.Perhaps some officials would feel a little strange and suspect that the emperor was not on the imperial carriage, but it didn't matter. It was relatively easy for the emperor to

    There were some willow trees planted behind the attic, near the wall. At the turn of autumn and winter, the branches still had long green leaves, but they were no longer as lively as they were in spring, and there were many dead leaves on the brick floor under the trees that had not been cleaned up in time.When Enhui saw this scene, she couldn't help but be moved, and her heart was shrouded in an elusive depression.She gently raised one arm and lowered her head to see her wrist and hand exposed from the sleeve of the light grey cotton gown. Her skin was white and still delicate like a woman's. Unfortunately, she was afraid of comparison. If she compared it with the tight skin of a teenage girl, the difference would be a little obvious.She pondered and said, "I have experienced many ups and downs over the years. I am like a withered flower and a withered willow. My family has fallen into poverty. I am just trying to make ends meet. Your Majesty, why do you

  • Game of the Throne    Chapter 801 Hunting

    Most of the emperor's public activities had symbolic meaning. For example, the annual "Plowing" ceremony at the Xiannong Altar does not produce anything, it is just a show. However, it symbolizes that the imperial court attaches great importance to agriculture and serves as an advocate and role model for billions of officials and people in the world.Another example is when Zhu Gaoxu went to inspect the mint a few days ago. He mainly paid attention to the matter itself, but he also knew that officials would have more interpretations.Now he summoned the nobles and important ministers of the court and suddenly went to Xiaohongshan for hunting; a series of actions made the courtiers more aware of what the emperor wanted to do recently.The Zhili area near Jinling is densely populated and has almost no decent hunting grounds; if the emperor likes to ride around and hunt, he would probably prefer Peiping. The place where the capital can hunt is Xiaohongshan. Whe

    At the Xiaohongshan hunting ground, the Minister of Revenue Xia Yuanji gave advice in a tactful way, and Zhu Gaoxu understood it. Zhu Gaoxu was not unfamiliar with such admonitions. At the monthly imperial lectures, there was no shortage of officials giving advice through the words of saints and historical facts.Zhu Gaoxu paced between the bookshelves in Rouyi Hall, calmed down, and recalled Xia Yuanji's words again.He had to admit that from a certain perspective, Xia Yuanji's proposal made sense. The court had finally managed to keep the vast majority of the common people working on the land, and had even resorted to ideological control methods such as "education" to maintain the ruling order; if the new policy failed, it might have unexpected side effects.Xia Yuanji's political views also believe that the threat of nomadic civilization is the natural threat to agricultural countries like the Ming Dynasty.

    In December, the Kyushu region of Japan had already seen a few snowfalls. When the head of the Ouchi family, Ouchi Morimi, went to Shima County, it happened to be a sunny day.Shima County belongs to Chikuzen Province, located in the northern part of Kyushu Island, west of Hakata Bay. For the Ouchi clan, this place is far away from Yamaguchi Castle in Suo Province and is a relatively remote place.To the north of the Imazu Village garden in Shima County is an arc-shaped coastline. It is neither a good port nor very prosperous; but there is a relic called "Yuankou Defense Fort" which is very famous.This was the place where the Japanese army fought a desperate battle with the invading Yuan Dynasty army more than a hundred years ago.Ouchi Morimi rode a horse and led a group of followers into a forest not far from the coast. During the war, this area should not have been in the woods; but times have changed, and now the ruins have been covered up by tree

    After the Lantern Festival in the third year of Wude, everything in the world came back to life, and the court began to carry out important affairs. Zhu Gaoxu had to send General Sheng Yong and other generals to Korea first; until the end of the next month, the fleet carrying the main forces of the government army and the navy would set sail from the ports downstream of the Yangtze River.The Longjiang Harbor was shrouded in a damp mist, which made today's farewell ceremony less grand. The treasure ship moored at the pier vaguely revealed its huge body and tall mast, and the looming scene was like a mirage.Zhu Gaoxu led the civil and military officials and waited in a pavilion by the river for a while, and then Sheng Yong, Ping An and Liu Sheng came. The pavilion was very small, so Zhu Gaoxu walked out in the direction where the three people were coming.Sheng Yong and several others knelt on the ground and performed the grand ceremony first.Zhu Gaox

    The eunuchs and Jinyiwei soldiers surrounded the imperial carriage and drove it to Waiwulong Bridge. When the carriage stopped for a while, Pei Youzhen got off.As soon as the team passed the Wulong Bridge, they looked towards Chengtian Gate. Pei Youzhen didn't need to go to the palace at this time, so it was appropriate for him to say goodbye to the emperor here.The imperial carriage started moving again, and Pei Youzhen stood by the road, bowing to the carriage. He found that many of the civil and military eunuchs who accompanied him all looked at him strangely. No matter what their mood was, they were all paying attention to Pei Youzhen; after all, he had just been riding with the emperor.He was a plain-looking man who looked like a farmer. He once taught illiterate warriors to read and write in the Han Palace. How could he have imagined that he would have the honor and status he has today?Pei Youzhen was distracted for a moment, but soon came to

    The sky gradually darkened and the lights came on. Gao Xu held Miao Jin's hand and followed the crowd into the concert hall.People were all dressed up, especially women, who were all dressed up. Some wore traditional clothes such as ruqun or aoqun, while others were dressed in modern fashion. Each figure seemed to be wandering between the classical and the modern.Among them there are many foreigners, probably all of whom came to Taicang to attend international conferences.In terms of fun, people might prefer to watch a movie rather than enjoy such pure music. However, there were still many listeners tonight, and the auditorium gradually filled up.Perhaps some of them value the rarity of concerts and do not attend them often, while others simply value their style.Gao Xu's main happiness comes from Miao Jin's company. Imagine if he came alone or with someone unrelated, his feelings would be much worse. He is willing to be with Miao Jin and exp

    There were long commercials playing on TV, but no one changed the channel.Miao Jin was doing chores and preparing ingredients for lunch. Gao Xu began to check his various instruments, which were all measuring tools he had collected a while ago.There is a ray detector, which, according to the manual, can detect radiation, including ultraviolet light, laser and other electromagnetic waves. There is a torsion balance experimental device, which can measure the gravitational constant. And an air measuring instrument.There were also some uncommon small devices. In short, except for the large instruments that were difficult to carry, he tried his best to buy all the instruments that could test general constants.Miao Jin would occasionally look over here curiously, but before she asked, she might have guessed what Gao Xu was going to do.Gao Xu would tell her clearly as long as she asked. Because when he was going to look for the cave in Huangshan, h

    Gao Xu usually doesn't like watching TV. But today, when Miao Jin was watching TV in the living room, he was gradually attracted by the TV program, so he stopped what he was doing and sat next to Miao Jin.There was a studio on the TV screen, with two hosts, a man and a woman, talking about the animation "Zootopia" like a crosstalk. It was neither news nor entertainment, but a show that mocked reality.Miao Jin saw Gao Xu sitting over and said, "This TV station should be more inclined to the left-wing viewpoint."Gao Xu asked, "Why haven't I heard of the distinction between left and right wings?"Miao Jin said, "It is originally an imported product. That is how foreigners describe Ming Dynasty politics. There is no clear distinction between left and right in China. So we generally don't use such words. It is normal that we don't hear them normally."She glanced at Gao Xu and continued, "This classification first appeared in the parliament during

    Gao Xu's drama project has less than half the investment of the animation project, with a total investment of about 40 million yen for 15 episodes; the profit expectations are also completely incomparable to those of animated films. As Wang Siqi and most people believe, the fastest way to make money is still the movie box office.But Gao Xu has invested more energy in costume dramas.The crew built a filming site in the Western Regions. From 509 to the first half of 510, a production period of less than a year, Gao Xu flew twice to personally observe the filming site. His subordinate Sun Jing also stayed in the Western Regions for a long time, passing various information back to Taicang.A large media company in Taicang has signed an exclusive premiere agreement with Dream Incubation Studio.The terms are a bit complicated, but the key is to adopt a cooperation model with floating copyright fees.

    The glass window on the outer wall is located in the east direction, so the sunlight cannot enter the studio in the afternoon. Therefore, Gao Xu often has a slight illusion that it seems to be later than the actual time.At this moment, the phone in his coat pocket rang. Gao Xu's phone rarely received calls because he had set the Do Not Disturb function, so no calls could be received from numbers that were not saved. He took it out and saw that it was a person who he did not contact often but had saved the number a long time ago, Sun Jing.Gao Xu stood up from his desk, walked to the corner by the glass window, glanced at Wang Cheng not far away, and answered the phone.Sun Jing's voice asked, "Are you still busy with work?"Gao Xu said, "Yes, I am working on two projects at the same time, so I am a little busy. How is Mr. Sun doing recently?"Sun Jing, "Very boring. I don't have to go to work, but I've been idle for so long that I feel like I'm

    This was the second time Gao Xu and Xiao Yu had a meal together. Last time they were at the company cafeteria, and today they were at a roadside fast food restaurant.After finishing work at the agency, Gao Xu drove off the main road and found a parking space. Then he randomly found a restaurant where he could eat and walked in with Xiao Yu.It was very lively inside, with all kinds of customers, including well-dressed office workers and some homely citizens, men, women, young and old, making a big noise in the room, mixed with the loud shouts of the shop assistants passing on information. Although the air conditioner was on, the shop was open and there were many people, so it was still very hot inside.There were several dishes to choose from, all of which were simple and convenient. Gao Xu and Xiao Yu gave up on the braised pork intestines with radish, and roast duck was too greasy, so they chose roast chicken.The roasted chicken skin was cut into p

    After many twists and turns, Gao Xu finally contacted the director named Ma Xuan.Ma Xuan has an account on the Internet where he posts some career news. Gao Xu's assistant Yu Ni left messages and sent messages, but it took several days for her to get a response. Gao Xu came to the hall and looked through the information records on Yu Ni's computer."He doesn't seem very proactive." Yu Ni said.Gao Xu said , "You claim to be the assistant of the investor of "Dream Seekers", but he may not believe you. If our studio also has such a certified account, it may save some trouble."At this time, Shidai Heng walked by and greeted him, "Mr. Liu."Gao Xu nodded and said, "We are trying to contact Ma Xuan, the director you recommended."Dai Heng came over and said, "He should have received a lot of similar messages. And there is indeed some false information on the Internet. For the purpose of advertising, people may lie about their identities, which

    The people who work here, including Dai Heng who has only been here a few days, seem to have gotten used to the environment.The studio was in good condition. The morning sun shone in through the French windows, and the room was clean and tidy. In addition to the solid wood desk and bookshelf, and a full range of domestic electrical appliances (Made in China products are more expensive), there were also comfortable leather chairs.Gao Xu was in Xiao Deng's office at the moment, sitting on one of the leather chairs, holding a tablet and reading the text he had just copied from Xiao Deng's computer. Of course, he couldn't help but listen to the sound of her keyboard at the same time.He put down the tablet, picked up the cup next to him, and found it was empty. So he stood up and walked to the water dispenser, filled up half a cup of hot water, then took a tea bag and put it in the cup to soak for more than ten seconds, then took it out and put it next to him.

    The next screenwriter who came to the studio for an interview was named Dai Heng, who should be a relatively unknown person.Gao Xu looked out from the glass wall and when he saw Dai Heng, he immediately guessed that this person was probably not married yet. Dai Heng was wearing a brand new suit, a white shirt with a small cross collar, and a pair of casual leather shoes that didn't match. The most unpleasant thing about Dai Heng was his long hair, but unlike the image of Ekin Cheng, Gao Xu felt at first glance that Dai Heng was not suitable for that hairstyle. Some hairstyles look good, but they are picky about the face.But these are not problems. Now that the people have arrived, Gao Xu needs to get to know them a little bit.Gao Xu pressed the phone on the desk, "Xiao Yu, ask him to come to the office to meet.""Okay." Xiao Yu said into the phone outside, his voice coming from the desk inside.Dai Heng came in from the door with a bag on his
