The banquet continued and Zhu Youxiao did not mention the matter again.
When everyone was drunk and excited, Wu Keshan stood up and walked directly to the center of the hall with his glass of wine.
After bowing respectfully, Wu Keshan said, "Your Majesty, I have something to say."
After hearing this, the hall instantly became quiet, and everyone's eyes fell on Wu Keshan.
The ministers of the Ming Dynasty stared at Wu Keshan with resentment on their faces, and there was a murderous gleam in their eyes.
Some people even wanted to stand up and scold Wu Keshan. After all, at this time, doing such a thing is very, very rude.
We're having a banquet now. Normally, banquets are just for you to eat, so don't talk nonsense. If you want to discuss matters with the Emperor, you have to do it in a more formal setting.
Wu Keshan's behavior is more like forcing abdication.
Zhu Youxiao didn't care. He waved his hand and winked at the ministers, indicating that they should not jump out at this time.
In fact, Zhu Youxiao was still very curious and wanted to know what Wu Keshan would say.
Dayuer had just told him about Hailanzhu, so Wu Keshan was definitely not talking about his sister now.
No matter what he said, it could only mean one thing, that is, Wu Keshan was anxious and his previous strategy had taken effect.
Once this person gets anxious, it is definitely a big taboo in negotiations. It is easy for him to agree to some conditions that he did not originally want to agree to, and it is easy for him to overturn his previous actions.
Zhu Youxiao had a bright smile on his face. He took a sip of wine and said, "My dear, if you have anything to say, feel free to speak up."
"Your Majesty, I have a few things to say today." Wu Keshan's face had a very serious expression, and it was obvious that he was going to talk about serious matters.
The Mongolians around him all looked at Wu Kesan, wanting to see what he was going to say.
"Go ahead and talk. There's plenty of time today. I can listen to whatever you say." Zhu Youxiao said with a smile.
"Children on the grasslands, who spend all day riding horses and shooting arrows, really don't have much of a future," Wu Keshan said seriously. "They're really unlearned and unskilled."
"Now that the Ming Dynasty is at its peak, we bow down before His Majesty. However, we cannot speak the Ming language, write Ming characters, or understand Ming poetry, literature, and etiquette. This is truly unworthy of being a minister."
"I hope Your Majesty can build a royal academy in Daning City. My tribe can provide the land and money. Please send some teachers to teach the children in our tribe and allow them to study in Daning City."
"In this way, these children will surely become pillars of society in the future."
After hearing this, the expressions of the Ming Dynasty officials instantly eased.
Many of them stroked their beards with an expression of appreciation, and when they looked at Wu Keshan, their eyes became much kinder.
This is a smart man. Look how reasonable what he said is.
It doesn't matter if there are barbarians outside the Great Wall, but you must study. Only by studying can you understand the truth, and only then can education be effective.
This is called the credit of speaking, and it cannot be given to others.
These Ming Dynasty officials thought that they could go back and support this matter and send some people over.
Zhu Youxiao frowned and thought.
This is a good thing.
But he was thinking of something else.
Reading and understanding are good things, and studying Confucianism is certainly fine. However, when it comes to this issue of sectarianism, it seems that there is room for some confusion.
Should we let the Taoists come? Or should we let the Buddhists come?
Taoism doesn't seem to be suitable. There is a tradition of Buddhism on the grassland, and it would not be a good idea to change it rashly.
They are currently practicing Tibetan Buddhism, which is not good. They need to change it to Central Plains Buddhist statues. Bringing a group of monks from Shaolin Temple and Mount Wutai over might be a good idea.
I'll go back and ask all the old monks to see if I can do something about it. In addition to building the Royal Academy, it seems that I can also build a larger temple.
The Ming Dynasty was very satisfied.
The Mongols were somewhat dissatisfied.
Many Mongolians showed an expression of "as expected".
This guy Wu Keshan really has no bottom line and has completely turned to the Ming Dynasty.
This made many Mongolians alert.
