"What my cousin said is very thoughtful, but as the highest institution of higher learning in the Ming Dynasty, the Imperial College has a wide range of implications. If there is any reform, I should let Grandpa know about it."

??"But I didn't expect that my cousin would have such an opinion. I wonder what my cousin has in mind and what plans he has for the future."

??Zhu Ying said.

??Reforming the Imperial College is inevitable, and these ideas proposed by Chang Jizu are also quite good.

Zhu Ying had previously felt that one should not place too much emphasis on literature over martial arts, especially for students, who should not be defeated by the weak.

It is necessary to have more contact with the people, not only to truly serve the people, but to understand farming and do their jobs well.

??When Chang Jizu heard this, he was pleasantly surprised.

??After receiving his father's guidance, Chang Jizu began to wonder how to solve the current problems in the Imperial College.

??I spent most of the night thinking hard before I spoke today.

??I can think of this, and it has a lot to do with Chang Jizu's identity. When normal people go to the Imperial College, they always think about how to blend in, make friends, and pave the way for their future.

??Chang Jizu doesn’t need this. He is a descendant of top nobles, and he doesn’t have much interest in the Four Books and Five Classics.

That’s why we can consider the problem from outside this point of view.

Now the grandson's words are obviously to promote himself.

Chang Jizu did not hesitate, and immediately bowed and said: "I know my character well, and I like martial arts rather than literature. I heard that Your Highness has established a military academy, so I sincerely request Your Highness to summon me to study in the academy."

If you don't ask, you need something. Entering the academy as Chang Jizu is undoubtedly a matter of course.

Zhu Ying smiled, knowing the little meaning behind these words.

"The arrangements for the Military Academy are generally ready, but I plan to officially recruit students after spring."

"My cousin is probably not living a comfortable life in the Imperial College now. I wonder how old my cousin is this year."

Chang Jizu hurriedly said: "I will be eighteen this year."

Zhu Ying nodded and said: "She happens to be one year younger than me, so that's fine."

"We are all brothers, so we should be close to each other. I am currently short of a personal guard. I wonder if my cousin is interested."

Chang Jizu was overjoyed and kowtowed directly to the ground: "Thank you for your grace, Your Highness Taisun."

...

The expedition generals who set out from the capital had already arrived at the seaport in less than five days because they were traveling along the river.

Half a million troops have been gathering here for a long time, mainly divided into four groups.

The 200,000-strong army led by Feng Sheng is the main army, while the other three armies each with 100,000-strong troops are under the jurisdiction of three vassal kings: Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, and Zhu Zhu.

Feng Sheng had the power to control the entire army.

It's just that Feng Sheng's heart is still very complicated now.

It's hard for him to do.

Just in these few days of travel, I have already seen the character of the three princes.

Among them, the rivalry between King Zhu Di of Yan and King Zhu Fen of Jin is the main theme of this journey. Whether they are discussing military operations or other aspects, they are almost always facing each other.

Zhu Di is not afraid of the capital now. Whenever the third brother criticizes him, he will fight back without hesitation.

Even when it comes to a fight, there is no sloppiness at all and it is extremely straightforward.

What else could Feng Sheng do? He could only continue to mediate.

And Zhu Shu is not a worry-free character either.

He has an arrogant personality. After he left the capital, he felt like he was the boss and he was the second brother. When he saw the third brother and the fourth brother fighting against each other, not only would they not try to persuade him to make peace, but he would fan the flames, hoping that the two of them would fight immediately.

Feng Sheng has done nothing else in the past few days and has spent all his time mediating.
