One thousand two hundred and ninety-eight, the eighth year of Hongwu is a good year

Su Yonglin once wanted to ask why Xin Qiji wrote the Qingyu case, but later it was very detailed in the article submitted by Xin Qiji himself, so Su Yonglin didn't ask again.

In the article submitted by Xin Qiji at that time, he described the cause and consequences of creating this poem and his inner feelings, and described the corruption and depravity of the upper class and the hardships of the lower class people he saw in the Southern Song Dynasty.

The huge sense of tear brought by the two completely different situations made him feel extremely absurd. Under such a strong mood, he decided to completely separate from the old era, so he wrote the poem.

This surprised Su Yonglin.

He was surprised at the completely different meanings expressed by the same poem in different environments.

Then, besides lamenting that Xin Qiji is awesome, he has no other feelings.

His poor literary cultivation made him have no better words other than awesome to describe Xin Qiji's talent.

So he hoped that Xin Qiji could write more poems, which could be used as textbooks or as exam questions in the future, and to do some reading comprehension that the original author himself did not understand, so as to benefit students all over the world.

It's interesting to think about it.

For example, ask students who are the [that person] written by Xin Qiji.

However, when Su Yonglin suggested that Xin Qiji could develop slightly in the direction of a genre of Cizong, Xin Qiji made it clear that he was not very enthusiastic about this and had no idea.

Maybe he will consider it after retirement, but in his prime, he was just in his prime and putting his passion and knowledge into practice. How could he write some sarcastic poems that criticize current problems like a grudge in the boudoir?

And after all, what are the current problems in the Ming Dynasty that need him to criticize?

If there really is, it is not his turn to brew emotions and write poetry. Su Yonglin had already used physical methods to clean up it, and he had no room to play.

"Poetry is a path to cultivate personal sentiment. After all, I am the chief of staff of the Ming Dynasty. I should focus more on the military work of the Ming Dynasty and focus on battlefield competition, rather than any poetry. No matter how well the poem is written, it cannot make the country strong, nor can the army win battles, it is just a waste of money."

Looking at Xin Qiji's attitude, Su Yonglin couldn't help but feel sorry for the vast number of candidates in the contemporary and future generations. With so many poems, the scope of the question will be narrowed.

but……

It doesn't matter.

Su Yonglin smiled and patted Xin Qiji on the shoulder.

"Besides work, there is nothing more than life. Of course, you can love work, but after work, you must also know how to rest and enjoy. Although I am busy with official duties, I will practice martial arts and exercise, accompany my family, or read and write, and write the articles I want to write.

For me, these things are just relaxation and leisure outside of official duties, which can relieve stress. You also need to learn to send some work pressure. If I could write poetry, I would have written it long ago. It would be a pity that I would not."

Xin Qiji touched his chin.

"That's it...you're so busy at work, can you take time?"

"I'm not an iron man. I have to rest after all, and I have to do my own things, such as accompanying my family. My second boy was not long after I was born. When my eldest son was born, it was the time when the sky was dull and dark in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China. It was the most regrettable thing that I didn't accompany him. Now I have the opportunity to make up for my regrets, so of course I have to seize the opportunity."

Su Yonglin smiled and said, "I heard that your wife is pregnant too. This is your second child. Please spend more time with your family. Take a vacation if you should take a vacation. There is nothing too busy. Just hurry up and rest, don't get tired of yourself."

Xin Qiji's eldest son was born four years ago, and now his wife is pregnant again. Su Yonglin thinks that Xin Qiji can take some time to spend time with her family.

Otherwise, after the battle to defeat Song will be launched, he will be busy.

Xin Qiji is like this, and isn’t Su Yonglin like this?

When the eldest son of the family was born, just as the busiest time of the founding of the country, he was busy in the previous dynasty and had no time to care about his family. He could only let Zhao Xirui work hard and be both a father and a mother, but instead let him gain the identity of a kind father.

Now that the youngest son is born, the government is still busy, but not so busy that he can't take time to spend with his family. Zhao Xirui now has things to do in the Women's Department, so sometimes Su Yonglin will take the initiative to take over the job of accompanying his youngest son.

After ten months of pregnancy, Zhao Xirui gave birth to Su Yonglin's second child, which is also a son.

Su Yonglin was somewhat regretful about this because he actually wanted a daughter in this child and wanted to taste the taste of having both children.

But since the child was born, he was also happy and happy. He took a lot of time to accompany his son and Zhao Xirui, who was in confinement, and then discussed with Zhao Xirui about having a daughter for his third child, but Zhao Xirui was scolded very much.

Not enough work as an emperor? What is the third one? Are you busy? Is this something you should consider?

Su Yonglin was scolded and speechless.

It is the first time he has felt the hard work of raising children in the palace. Although there are professional confinement nannies and nurses in the palace who can help take care of the children, he still takes time to take care of the children by himself, and then he feels various difficulties.

The emperor personally changed the diapers to his child and was urinated on his face. It was always something that the palace secretly told him and was unwilling to tell the public.

However, Su Yonglin has a deep feeling from these very hard physical work.

"If you have time, spend more time with your wife and children. After the child is born, you should take care of him personally for a while. Really, you will have some very different experiences."

“Different experience?”

Xin Qiji was a little confused: "What else can I have to experience raising a child? It's just to be grateful for the kindness of parents and feel the hard work and difficulty?"

"Maybe for a man, his mood will be different."

Su Yonglin smiled: "In short, spending more time with your family and focusing more on your family is definitely not a bad thing for us. We are in a high position for a long time and it is easy to develop a high-ranking mentality. This is not good. By raising children, we can get back the mentality of ordinary people."

Xin Qiji thought about it and then laughed out loud.

"Since that's the case, I'll try it."

"Um."

The eighth year of Hongwu was indeed a good year for the Ming Dynasty.

At the beginning of the year, the Battle of Sichuan and Shu broke out, and the Ming army occupied Sichuan and Shu, ending the absurd Shu and Song regime.

At the end of March, the Yellow River diversion project was gradually coming to an end. Tian Guizi, the general manager of the Yellow River diversion project, the left censor of the Ming Dynasty, the Prime Minister and Director of the General Affairs Department of the Revival Association, officially submitted a statement to the court, saying that the Yellow River diversion project was about to come to an end.

It only takes up to two months to do the final inspection and coordination to finally complete the Yellow River diversion project, allowing the Yellow River water to return to the former path of the Eastern Han Dynasty and flow into the sea east.

Su Yonglin was overjoyed when he heard the news. In early April of the eighth year of Hongwu, he went to the Yellow River construction site again to patrol. Together with Tian Guizi, he walked the brand new Yellow River channel that was about to be used in a complete manner, and inspected the embankments and diversion facilities of each section of the river.

Tian Guizi was particularly happy this time, saying that he finally lived up to expectations and could ensure that the entire diversion project was completed in the middle of the eighth year of Hongwu. From then on, the flooding period of the Yellow River, which has been in full swing for hundreds of years since the collapse of the Yellow River in the late Tang and Five Dynasties, will come to an end.

The risk of collapse every year will become history from now on.

"Although this big project cost more than 40 billion yuan and took more than five years, I think it's worth it. It's better to make up for the Yellow River to be overhauled every year after that.

Every breach or flooding will bring extremely heavy losses. It can almost turn the hard-working results into nothing, and many people will die. So no matter from any perspective, this project is extremely expensive, but it is still extremely necessary."

Tian Guizi smiled and said to Su Yonglin: "In recent years, the court has had financial difficulties and labor difficulties, and many things have been delayed. The court must have had a lot of dissatisfaction. However, once the old road of the Eastern Han Dynasty is reopened and the Yellow River flows into the sea, not to mention anything else, the fertile land of the two Huai Rivers will inevitably quickly restore its original prosperity."
