First Prince of Ming Dynasty

What Qinglian thinks Zhu Biao naturally doesn't know, he is not in the mood to pay attention to a woman's small thoughts now, he has seen everything that should be seen in Qingyang Mansion, it is time to go to the rear to have a look.

The most important thing is to find out where the embezzled part of the relief food is. Once Han Zheng arrives at the Xi'an Mansion and leads Cao Liangchen, the movement of the army will not be hidden for long. It's broken.

The most important purpose of Zhu Biao's actions here is to preserve the disaster-stricken people to a greater extent, and the second is to severely punish corrupt officials who make the country suffer. This order should not be confused.

If the food is burned and killed by Zhu Biao, no matter how many corrupt officials are killed, how to explain to the people who are waiting to be fed after the killing, even if the government immediately asks the court to adjust the food, it will take more than a month to send it to the disaster area. I starved to death, and the food was useless.

Fortunately, Quan Xu is almost here. Although Jin Yiwei is far from forming a fighting force, it is enough to control the situation with Wang Shijian's elite army guards.

After all, it is not so easy to burn all the accumulated food in one go, and according to Zhu Biao's prediction, if possible, he is going to give priority to controlling the commander of the local guard.

As the saying goes, a scholar can't rebel for three years, and they can't do much to raise people and scholars. Zhu Yuanzhang is still very taboo about the integration of civil and military powers. Local civil officials do not have the power to command the troops of the guards, that is, they can use government officials and their own guards up.

The most is to bring some local hooligans, mobs are not worth mentioning, as long as Zhu Biao can ensure his own safety is enough, the rest is not a problem, after all, it is a matter of a few state capitals.

I finished wiping my hair, my servant will wait for you to rest.

Zhu Biao came back to his senses when he heard the voice and said casually: Go down, and leave for Pingliang Mansion tomorrow.

Qing Lian stubbornly pursed her lips, and stared at Liu An and Zhao Huai'an with aggrieved eyes: Since this is the case, I will resign, my son, please rest earlier.

These two young servants are obviously not handsome, can it be that I can't even compare with them?

The two little eunuchs who were stared at inexplicably were also a little aggrieved, why won't your son let you serve us and stare at us?

It's really useless, it's useless to waste a charming appearance, if you give us...

Hmph (￣^￣), I have already climbed a branch and turned into a phoenix!

After Qinglian went down, Zhu Biao also lay down on the bed to rest. In fact, it was a bit abrupt to leave so suddenly, but Zhu Biao still felt that safety was the most important thing, because his identity might not be exposed at any time.

Even if his father helped to cover it up, it might not be safe. After all, local officials along the way would naturally inquire about his physical condition, and the civil servants who received the news would also take the opportunity to say something.

The ministers have already advised the Holy Majesty to leave His Royal Highness in the prison country, and you insist on taking it away. This is all right, Your Highness is sick, so in the future, the Holy Majesty should listen to the advice of the ministers and others. The so-called...

In Zhu Biao's mind, his father's black face appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help laughing with his eyes closed. Moreover, Comrade Zhu couldn't rush back to the capital to teach them a lesson. In order to cover Zhu Biao, he had no choice but to Procrastination on the road.

The next morning Zhu Biao got up early to meet with Zhang Mingyuan. Zhang Heng was the magistrate of Qingyang after all. He was busy with official duties in the morning. The two of them were in a teahouse and they ate local specialties. Zhu Biao was not used to the food. , it seems that one side is indeed supporting the other side.

Zhang Mingyuan still had that gentle and polite appearance. After pouring Zhu Biao a cup of herbal tea, he asked in confusion: Why is my brother leaving in such a hurry, but I think Brother Yu is not taking good care of him?

Zhu Biao said with a smile: Of course, my younger brother also wants to learn more with Shixiong, but the urging at home is tight, so I can't be greedy for pleasure and neglect the errands for noble people.

Zhang Mingyuan shook his head and said, Why do you need my virtuous brother to go around in person for these business affairs, just leave it to the two shopkeepers you brought, and I will send a few housekeepers to help you. You just stay here and wait.

Zhu Biao explained: It's just incidental to earning money. How can a nobleman care about mere money? The important thing is other things, such as recruiting suitable orphans...

Zhang Mingyuan's eyes lit up: Although you and I have known each other for a short time, we are indeed brothers and sisters who are dear relatives and friends. Brother Yu doesn't tell those lies. You can tell me all the errands that my brother came here. My family will do our best to help my brother. Do well, I just hope that when you return to Beijing, you can say a few good things about the Zhang family in front of the nobles.

Zhu Biao said with joy on his face: That can't be better. It's a coincidence that my younger brother was able to receive this errand. I just thought that I can do it beautifully and show my face in front of the nobles.

Zhang Mingyuan smiled eagerly: The so-called cooperation benefits both, you and my brother join forces, and we will serve as officials under the command of the Eastern Palace in the future, and we will have the same blessings and the same difficulties.

Zhu Biao also nodded eagerly and said: I don't have many friends in Beijing, and there are few helpers in the family. I didn't expect to come here but hit it off with my brother.

Seeing that Zhu Biao was a little excited, Zhang Mingyuan hurriedly comforted him kindly, but he thought in his heart that it seemed that Chen Yunze had overestimated Chen Yunze's position with the crown prince, maybe he really got this opportunity by chance.

It's a bit of a waste of Qinglian's stunning and enchanting beauty. If I knew it, I would save it for His Highness the Crown Prince in the future, but I guess it's all ruined flowers and willows now, so I have to let my father send someone to Tingzhou to choose a suitable one.

But it's not too wasteful, without Chen Yunze how difficult it is to get in touch with His Highness the Crown Prince, even in the capital there are not many civil servants under the command of the Eastern Palace, most of them are nobles.

Otherwise, Chen Youzong, the general envoy, would not be so detached. Zhang Mingyuan had already discussed with his father that there was a radish and a hole in the direct line of the Eastern Palace. Now the military general Xungui is full. Is there a noble Marquis of the Northern Expedition in the middle, and there are all the second generations of nobles behind, it is basically impossible to accommodate others in this situation.

Only civil servants still have a lot of pits. Except for Chen Youzong, Dali Temple Minister Yan Donglai, the envoy of the general government, there are only Jinshi of that department in the past two years. very.

But his Zhang family is suitable. His father, Zhang Hengzheng, is an acquaintance of the fifth grade, with profound qualifications and extensive contacts.

And he himself is sure to pass the Jinshi examination. If he has the support of His Royal Highness, stay in Beijing for two years and stay in the local area for three or four years, with the support of his own contacts, he can make a difference no matter which state capital he goes to. There will be official positions.
