When Zhu Yijun heard the price, he was a little surprised and said, "So much?"
This was not fake. Zhu Yijun was truly shocked. He did not expect that he could actually earn so much. Seeing Li He nod, Zhu Yijun could not help but sigh. "I really didn't expect that North Placating Marquis is quite generous!"
When Qi Jiguang heard Zhu Yijun's teasing, he suddenly looked embarrassed.
"This is nothing!"
Li He waved his hand and said, "This is nothing. Everyone knows that the manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs makes the most money. He even gets a bonus at the end of every year."
"I have a classmate who wanted to take the imperial examination. Later, he entered the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and I never heard him mention it again."
Zhu Yijun nodded. Zhu Yijun knew that the Ministry of Internal Affairs could make a lot of money.
The current Ministry of Internal Affairs was basically similar to the state-owned enterprises in the future. The welfare benefits were not a little better.
Instead of continuing to talk about the salary, Zhu Yijun asked with a smile, "Have you two brothers ever thought about starting a career?"
"My brother is better at studying than me. After I come back from Liaodong, I plan to let him take the civil servant examination."
Zhu Yijun nodded. It was good that there was a way out.
After drinking tea for a while and chatting with the two brothers for a while, Zhu Yijun turned around and left the teahouse.
They did not continue to wander around. It was getting dark, so they had to go back.
After returning to the tent, Zhu Yijun went back to his imperial chariot and changed his clothes.
As night fell, the bonfire in the camp burned brightly. Zhu Yijun sat beside the bonfire and roasted a sheep.
Brother Dong sat next to Zhu Yijun, accompanying Zhu Yijun.
On the other side were the civil and military ministers, but no one came to disturb Zhu Yijun at this time.
Eating meat and drinking wine was also a rare leisure time for the ministers.
"Your Majesty, the meat is ready!"
Brother Dong put the cut meat on the plate in front of Zhu Yijun and said with a smile, "It smells so good. Your Majesty, try it quickly."
Zhu Yijun smiled and nodded. He picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth.
Chewing the roast mutton, Zhu Yijun said to Brother Dong with a smile, "When you were in the tribe, did you also roast meat like this and eat it like this?"
"We don't have such a good chef!"
Brother Dong said with a smile, "Life in the tribe is still very miserable. The leaders of the tribe all want to annex others and fight every day."
"This concubine likes a saying from the Confucian school, and that is, 'when the granary is full, one knows honor and disgrace'."
"I know that many things in the grassland are not accepted by the Daming. The Daming has always regarded the people of the grassland as barbarians.
For example, marrying his father's woman or marrying his brother's woman. "
"Daming's people think that this is not in accordance with etiquette and is the behavior of a beast."
Before Brother Dong could continue, Zhu Yijun interrupted, "I know something about this!"
"Your Majesty knows?" Brother Dong asked hesitantly.
"Yes!" Zhu Yijun sighed and said, "I know that it's nothing more than to survive.
A woman can't survive in the tribe. "
"Especially when she has children. Marrying this woman means that she has to raise her and her children."
Looking at Zhu Yijun, Brother Dong said with a smile, "Your Majesty is kind. There are some reasons, and another reason is inheritance. You have to inherit the other party's family business and power."
Hearing Brother Dong's words, Zhu Yijun suddenly nodded. Sure enough, no matter what happened, its essence was hard to accept.
"I still think my way is better!" Zhu Yijun said with a smile, "At least it's not so hard to accept."
"Your Majesty is kind, so Your Majesty is the wisest emperor in the world." Brother Dong said with a smile as he put a piece of meat in front of Zhu Yijun.
The night was very quiet. After eating the meat, Zhu Yijun had someone build a bed on the ground and lay on it. Zhu Yijun raised his head to look at the sky, the stars twinkling in the sky and the chirping of insects.
"You know what?
I can't remember how long it's been since I've seen such a night. "
Zhu Yijun looked at the sky and said to Brother Dong, who was lying beside him with a smile, "I ascended the throne at the age of ten. At that time, my mother was in charge of me and Master Zhang taught me. Every day, I was worried about the rise and fall of the world and the country."
"Those are high hopes, but they are also restraints. I thought that if I were born in a rich family, I would drink tea and wine every night, play the zither, read books, and talk about the world with three or five friends."
"If I get the person I love, I can travel all over the world hand in hand. I can ride horses outside the Great Wall and watch the scenery in Jiangnan. How happy it is."
Brother Dong said with a smile, "Your Majesty said it so beautifully!"
"Yes!" Zhu Yijun nodded with a smile and said, "Do you know what?
I once told Master Zhang about this. Do you know what Master Zhang said to me? "
"Master Zhang told me a story. This story is' Why Don't Eat Minced Meat. '"
Hearing Zhu Yijun's words, Brother Dong immediately laughed and said, "I've heard this story. It says that the people suffered a disaster and had no food to eat. The minister reported this matter to the emperor, and the emperor said, 'Why don't the people eat meat porridge?'"
"Yes!" Zhu Yijun sighed and said, "Why don't the people eat meat porridge?"
"From then on, I knew that I couldn't do what I wanted to do. I am the Daming Emperor, and I have to protect the people of this country.
Since I can't do it, I will try my best to make more Daming people do it. "
"I will let them eat enough, wear warm clothes, and have spare money in their hands."
"When I'm free, I will call three or five friends and talk about the past and present. I will take my beloved woman and go wherever they want to go.
For this reason, I have not slacked off for a day since I ascended the throne. "
"In the blink of an eye, I have been on the throne for 20 years. Looking at this sky, I find that I have not looked at this night sky properly for 20 years."
Zhu Yijun sat on the couch and looked up at the sky that had not changed since ancient times. His eyes were full of loneliness and solitude.
After traveling through time and living in Daming for 20 years, Zhu Yijun was lonely. He was born as an emperor and worked hard. Zhu Yijun was also lonely.
Brother Dong looked at Zhu Yijun with a blurred gaze. This was the most powerful man in the world.
"Imperial Majesty, it's getting late. It's cold outside. You'd better go back and rest!"
Zhang Jing came to Zhu Yijun's side and said in a low voice, "When you go out, you should pay attention to your dragon body!"
Zhu Yijun glanced at Zhang Jing, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "Okay, go back and rest!" After that, Zhu Yijun turned around and walked inside with Brother Dong in his arms.
Zhu Yijun's journey to Ji Province was slow. It took half a month for a large group of people to travel from the capital to Ji Province.
In Ji Province, preparations had already been made to welcome the emperor. Even the streets had been cleaned.
For this reason, Governor Yang Zhao of Ji Liao had put in a lot of effort. Knowing that the emperor's first stop was Ji Province, Yang Zhao felt uneasy.
