Chapter 741 Ideological Remolding Study Class
Changguanzhuang is located not far from Chaoyangmen and is the closest imperial estate to Beijing. For this reason, it was chosen by Wang Wenzhou as the venue for this training course.
The next morning, after the court session, the civil and military officials, led by Zhu Youjian and Wang Wenzhou, arrived at Changguanzhuang.
At this moment, in the farmland, Zhu Youjian was plowing the land in a very professional manner, and the person helping him pull the plow was Yang Changsi, the Minister of War.
Originally, it wasn't Yang Changsi's turn. In officialdom, everything is done in order of rank. At first, it was Kong Zhenyun who was supposed to pull the plow, but old Kong's physique was really not up to the task. He pulled the plow a few steps and then got too tired to walk any further.
Several ministers ranked ahead of Yang Changsi realized they couldn't handle the task, so Yang Changsi was the only one left to take it on. Although Yang Changsi was also a civil official, he had experience leading troops and had also practiced martial arts, making him much stronger than Zheng Sanjun and the others. In the end, this glorious yet arduous task could only be undertaken by him.
Since Zhu Youjian was personally doing the work, the civil and military officials couldn't be idle either. They lined up, each holding a shovel and a pickaxe, and diligently turned over the soil.
Wang Wenzhou wasn't idle either. He swung the pickaxe a few times, and immediately felt a pain in his back. Wang Wenzhou looked back at Zhu Youjian and smiled bitterly to himself, "Zhu Youjian, you pig, stop messing around! You're the emperor, and you're actually doing farm work?"
Gao Guiying smiled slightly and asked softly, "Boxin, are you tired?"
"Mmm!" Wang Wenzhou nodded with a wry smile, his head resting on the ground.
Da Yu'er quickly stepped forward to wipe the sweat from Wang Wenzhou's face.
Gao Guiying said with a smile, "You must have never done farm work before. Your posture when holding the hoe is wrong!"
Wang Wenzhou curled his lips. "I'm a time traveler. In my era, tractors were used for plowing. There's no reason to treat people like oxen."
Zheng Sanjun was also tired. While he stopped to rest, he looked around and saw Wang Wenzhou hugging and kissing the baby.
"Hmph!" Zheng Sanjun snorted coldly, feeling extremely angry. It was all Wang Wenzhou's fault, that mad dog, who had instigated Zhu Youjian to come and work. But Wang Wenzhou, that mad dog, was always bringing pretty girls with him wherever he went.
Although Zheng Sanjun was very angry, he was helpless. Zhu Youjian had allowed Wang Wenzhou to bring the girl, so he, as a subject, could not object. After all, nominally, Da Yu'er and Gao Guiying were eunuchs sent by Zhu Youjian to take care of Wang Wenzhou.
If Zheng Sanjun were to cause trouble for Wang Wenzhou, wouldn't that be a slap in the face to Zhu Youjian? Although the Donglin Party and Zhu Youjian had different political views, the Donglin Party members weren't stupid and wouldn't openly slap Zhu Youjian in the face.
Wang Wenzhou hugged Da Yu'er and kissed her, his hand unconsciously slipping inside her clothes.
"Ah?" Da Yu'er suddenly exclaimed softly, asking anxiously, "Husband, what happened to your hand?"
"Huh?" Wang Wenzhou frowned, pulled his hand away and saw that there were two large blisters on his hand.
Da Yu'er was immediately heartbroken. She held Wang Wenzhou's hand and asked in a sweet voice, "Husband, does it hurt?"
Gao Guiying rolled her eyes at Da Yuer, cursing inwardly, "You little bitch, you're such a hypocrite!"
"Your Majesty! Someone come quickly!"
"His Majesty has fainted!"
Just then, someone suddenly shouted.
Wang Wenzhou smiled slightly. Zhu Youjian, that pig, was finally getting down to business. He figured Zhu Youjian must be exhausted. It has to be said, Zhu Youjian was a bit stubborn; he wasn't just putting on an act when he did farm work, he really put in the effort.
"Baby, it's okay. I have to go and act with Zhu Youjian!" Wang Wenzhou hugged Dayuer.
“Yes!” Da Yu’er nodded.
Wang Wenzhou strolled over.
At this moment, Zhu Youjian was surrounded by people.
"Lord Li, make way! Lord Huang, make way! What are you looking at? What's so interesting? Haven't you ever seen the Emperor faint from exhaustion before?" Wang Wenzhou pushed through the crowd and went inside.
Everyone curled their lips, too lazy to bother with Wang Wenzhou, this mad dog. It wasn't that they were afraid of Wang Wenzhou, but the key was that no one wanted to get angry with a mad dog. If a mad dog bites you, can you bite the mad dog back?
"Your Majesty, are you alright?" Wang Wenzhou asked seriously.
Physician Hu looked up at Wang Wenzhou and said solemnly, "His Majesty is not in any serious condition; he is simply overworked. Gentlemen, please do not worry!"
"Get out of the way! I haven't finished my farm work yet!" Zhu Youjian struggled to get up.
Kong Zhenyun quickly said, "No! Your Majesty's health is of utmost importance. If you were to ruin your health, it would be a disaster for the Ming Dynasty!"
"Yes, yes, yes! Lord Kong is right!" everyone quickly replied.
Zheng Sanjun cursed inwardly, "Kong Zhenyun, you old bastard! Ever since you became the Grand Secretary, you've been flattering the Emperor every day. You have no shame!"
"How can I give up halfway?" Zhu Youjian said solemnly.
Wang Wenzhou cursed inwardly, "Zhu Youjian, stop acting! If you keep going, it'll be too much!"
Wang Wenzhou said, "Your Majesty, please don't insist! Your health is of utmost importance!"
Wang Wenzhou looked at the eunuchs beside Zhu Youjian and said coldly, "What are you all standing there for? Quickly help the Emperor up and escort him back to the palace to rest!"
Zhu Youjian waved his hand and said, "I'm leaving. How will you all continue your work?"
Wang Wenzhou quickly said, "Your Majesty, please entrust this matter to me. Rest assured, I will lead my colleagues to work hard and reflect on our mistakes!"
"Yes!" Zhu Youjian nodded and said solemnly, "I didn't want to give up halfway, but my body can't help me. Boxin, I'm leaving this to you!"
"Your humble servant obeys the decree!" Wang Wenzhou replied hastily.
After Zhu Youjian finished speaking, he slowly rose with the help of the eunuchs, and the civil and military officials watched him leave.
Zheng Sanjun frowned. He vaguely felt that something was wrong. No matter how he looked at it, it seemed like Zhu Youjian and Wang Wenzhou had planned it all along.
After Zhu Youjian left, Wang Wenzhou cupped his hands to the crowd and said loudly, "Fellow colleagues, as you all heard, His Majesty entrusted this task to me. I can only do my best to share His Majesty's burdens!"
"Hmph!" Zheng Sanjun snorted coldly. He now understood that this matter was not simple!
Wang Wenzhou continued, "Alright, I see everyone is tired. Let's finish today's farm work and now let's begin our formal lesson!"
"Pfft..." Everyone was immediately dumbfounded. What was going on? Study? Study what?
Seeing everyone's gaze, Kong Zhenyun quickly asked, "Lord Wang, what brings you to class?"
"Oh!" Wang Wenzhou nodded and said, "It's like this. Last night, His Majesty had a long talk with me and told me his thoughts. His Majesty wanted to take this opportunity to let all my colleagues learn, discuss and consolidate our experience in governing the country."
"Huh?" Everyone was completely bewildered. Wang Wenzhou, you mad dog, how did you manage to fool the Emperor? We are all important officials of the court, do we have no experience in governing the country? Fine, even if we don't, who can be our teacher? Who would dare to be so shameless?
"Alright!" Wang Wenzhou waved his hand and said, "Colleagues, let's not waste any more time, come with me quickly!"
The group followed Wang Wenzhou to the prepared venue. Upon arrival, they were completely dumbfounded. A banner hung above the gate that read "Ideological Reform Study Class".
