Since Chief Military Minister Shi Yizhi left Beijing, Jiang Jin, as the second-level chief now, is now the chief executive. In fact, everyone in the court knows that Jiang Jin is just missing a name now, and it will naturally come true when time comes.

I have to say that Jiang Jin presided over the Military Affairs Office. The operation of the entire Military Affairs Office was much smoother than before, and the government policy also made Zhu Yicheng a little more relaxed.

After all, Zhu Yicheng was not Zhu Yuanzhang, nor was Zhu Youjian. His life as an emperor was far from as comfortable as the people imagined. The 996 system, which was criticized in later generations, was actually easy for the position of the emperor. As an emperor and the head of a great empire, Zhu Yicheng "waited for" almost twenty-four hours in many times, and countless government affairs were overwhelmed by the end. People with mentally fragile minds could not do this job at all.

No wonder Emperor Wanli did not attend court for decades, which was completely different from his diligent performance when he ascended the throne. Before, Zhu Yicheng couldn't understand why this was for, but when he was really sitting in this position, he was deeply enlightened and understood Wanli's thoughts.

Being an emperor and becoming the lord of the world, at the same time, you must shoulder the heavy responsibilities of the world.

Just like the Western culture in later generations, especially the movie mentioned, "The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility!" However, Zhu Yicheng is not a donkey in the production team, so it is naturally impossible to work hard every day. As a normal person, even the emperor, he needs time to rest and adjust. As the military operation is running smoothly, Zhu Yicheng can take a breath and let himself relax.

But true relaxation is naturally impossible. The so-called relaxation is only relative. During the break, Zhu Yicheng not only pays attention to the education of his children, but also thinks about the future direction of the Ming Empire and makes a series of long-term plans, which he cannot avoid in any case.

Zhu Yicheng paid more attention to the former, especially the prince's education. After all, the continuation of the empire must be handed over to the prince, and the prince is the future of the Ming Dynasty. Time flies so many years have passed, and now it is the autumn of the eleventh year of Yongye. Another season will be the twelve years of Yongye. People in this era are far precocious than later generations. Children of ordinary families get married at the age of thirteen or fourteen.

According to Zhu Yicheng's plan, in a few years, the prince will have to be allowed to serve in the army when he is sixteen years old. In fact, it is not only the prince, but all princes are like this. By then, Zhu Yicheng will slowly teach the prince how to use imperial power, understand politics, be familiar with military affairs, and become a qualified successor of the empire.

What made Zhu Yicheng happy was that he had re-established the rules before and gave the royal family children an educational method that surpassed this era, which seemed very good from the moment. Moreover, the establishment of the Royal Academy made the royal family children no longer become waste who could only eat, drink and enjoy as before.

At the same time, Zhu Yicheng solved the education of the Guixun class in this way, and then used these hubs to connect them with the royal family and Guixun class, so that the prince could have a "team" from the beginning, but this team would not be criticized. By the future, it would be natural for the prince to officially open the government.

Furthermore, the prince's performance also satisfies Zhu Yicheng. The prince, who has shown wisdom since childhood, has made great progress after entering school. Over the years, as he grows older, the prince has become calmer and more capable than his peers. Wu Sidao once told Zhu Yicheng that the prince has the image of a wise ruler, which is a blessing for the Ming Dynasty and a blessing for the world.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yicheng couldn't help but smile. He went to the Royal Academy in a private manner today. He did not go as an emperor, but as an ordinary parent. Except for Wu Sidao and a few people, no one else knew about it.

After staying in the college for a while, he watched the schooling of the prince, his friends, and his other children from afar. Then he drank a cup of tea in Wu Sidao's office. The satisfied Zhu Yicheng left quietly as he was when he came.

Back to the Forbidden City, before he could reach the side hall, a small yellow gate came over quickly and stopped more than twenty steps away from Zhu Yicheng. It was not until Xiao Jiangzi stepped forward to ask a few questions before coming back to report that Zhu Yicheng knew that it was Zhang Ran, the commander of the Jinyiwei Commander, asked for a look.

It was rare to have a half-day rest. Zhang Ran suddenly came over, and Zhu Yicheng felt a little unhappy. However, Zhang Ran was not a person who didn't know the importance. As the commander of the Jinyiwei, if he had no emergency affairs, he would not have been so anxious to enter the palace to ask for a meeting.

"Take him to the side hall." Zhu Yicheng said lightly with a normal expression, and then continued to walk towards the side hall.

After about two quarters of an hour, Zhang Ran arrived. Listening to Xiao Jiangzi's report outside, Zhu Yicheng took a sip of tea, put down the tea cup and let him in.

"My dear Zhang Ran to the emperor..." Zhang Ran knew that he should not disturb Zhu Yicheng today, but if he didn't come today and reported it tomorrow, Zhu Yicheng would definitely punish him heavily.

After being with Zhu Yicheng for so long, Zhang Ran had already figured out Zhu Yicheng's character. The emperor was calm on the surface, but in fact he had a big idea in his heart. More importantly, Zhu Yicheng has always been the first priority for state affairs. Ordinary things may be delayed, but some things must be reported to him as soon as possible.

If a minister is smart in order to please Zhu Yicheng, even though Zhu Yicheng is good to his ministers on weekdays, he will violate his bottom line by doing so and he will definitely be severely punished.

This kind of thing has not been done before, and has suffered or even lost office or dismissed from office. According to Zhu Yicheng, "national affairs are as great as the sky", the entire court, or the government, must put state affairs first, and execution is the first!

Therefore, after seeing Zhu Yicheng, Zhang Ran did not perform ordinary rituals as usual, but performed a kowtow, which was a small plan in his heart. After all, he was an Jinyiwei and a close minister of the emperor. It is reasonable to perform such rituals.

However, Zhu Yicheng naturally knew Zhang Ran’s little thoughts, and immediately waved his hand to ask him to get up and ask what urgent matters were.

"The emperor, I dare not delay the news from Liaodong, so I went to the palace to ask for a meeting."

"Liaodong? Haven't all the Manchus driven to the north? Now it's almost winter in Liaodong. Are these Manchus planning to come back if they can't survive? Or can't they take the initiative to surrender?" Zhu Yicheng was stunned at first when he heard Zhang Ran's words, and then asked with a smile.
