Domineering Daming

For half a month, the governor's office in Jiangsu was doing finishing work.

Yingtianfu Yamen.

King Jing Zhu Luhu, Governor Huang Liji, Yingtian Mansion Governor Zhou Weijing and others all gathered together. This time, everyone looked relaxed.

Huang Liji sat beside him, and said with a smile: "My lord, now you have completed your merits and virtues. After you returned to Beijing, you also had an explanation to the court."

Zhou Weijing and other former Nanjing officials also breathed a sigh of relief. They now want to send King Jing away as soon as possible. Otherwise, if they continue to dig, the whole of Jiangsu will be trapped. Be steady and digest this change slowly.

How could Prince Jing not know what they were thinking, he smiled, held the teacup and did not speak.

Li Kuilong and Cao Qincheng didn't speak. They knew that someone who cleaned up the mess had arrived.

Sure enough, just as Huang Liji finished speaking, a yamen servant came in quickly and reported: "My lord, there is a lord from the capital outside asking to see you."

Prince Jing smiled, stood up and said, "My lords, the special envoy sent by the emperor has arrived."

Huang Liji, Zhou Weijing, Wang Yongguang and others were startled, they never expected that there would be another imperial envoy.

Bi Ziyan walked in, raised his hand and said, "I pay my respects to the lord."

Prince Jing waved his hand and said with a smile: "Master Bi, you are welcome. Come, let me introduce you to him."

Everyone looked at Bi Ziyan, Huang Liji, and Zhou Weijing. They all knew each other, and they felt a little relieved. This Master Bi has a strong heart, but he is not a difficult person to get along with.

King Jing introduced him with a smile. After all, Bi Ziyan used to be the Minister of the Household Department. His rank was higher than all the people here except King Jing. , he is the uncrowned king.

He also raised his hand and said to the crowd: "I came here this time for the purpose of this year's summer grain, to take over the taxation of several southern provinces for the household department, and to check the backlog. Once the matter is resolved, I will return to Beijing. So , Don’t worry, my lords.”

Prince Jing watched from the side, and smiled inwardly, this Master Bi is also tactful and understands the three flavors.

Sure enough, Huang Liji, Zhou Weijing and others were relieved to hear this.

After talking for a while, several people sat down again, and Prince Jing said with a deep smile, "This king has handled the Jiangsu matter in a similar way. Next, you need to deal with it slowly."

Everyone also smiled modestly. There are a lot of things to do next. Turning a capital city of hundreds of years into an ordinary chief secretary is not enough to kill some people and intimidate them. It will take a long time to digest.

In the capital, Zhu Xu's desk was full of memorials.

The impeachment of Wen Zhaoge, the impeachment of King Jing, the impeachment of Huang Liji, the impeachment of Fu Zonglong, the impeachment of Xu Wenjue, the impeachment of Wei Zhongxian, the impeachment of Dongchang...

From all over the country, there are nearly a thousand copies of impeachment records from all over the country, and Yang Lian alone has written more than [-] pieces!

Zhu Xu smiled, pushed all these memorials, and said with a smile: "Tell the supervisor of ceremonies, all these impeachment memorials should be sent to Wenzhao Pavilion, so that Wang Xin can send them over."

Liu Shimin was also used to Zhu Xu's occasional pranks, so he agreed and asked someone to prepare a plate, sorted out these memorials, and sent them to Wenzhao Pavilion.

Zhu Xu flipped through the memorial book from Jiangsu, looked at all kinds of information, and nodded secretly. Prince Jing's ability made him admire. .

"Well, we have to give him more chances in the future." Zhu Xu smiled to himself.

Cao Huachun stood not far away, his face remained motionless, but his heart was like a mirror. The emperor had thrown too many sticks, and he wanted to show his goodwill and win over some people who could be won over.

For the time being, Zhu Xu could let go of the Jiangsu matter. He flipped through the notebook, his brows furrowed unconsciously.

This is the memorandum of the Chief Secretary of Sichuan. This year, there is another severe drought in Sichuan, which is expected to reduce production by [-]% compared to previous years. Moreover, civil unrest has increased, and Qin Liangyu's troops are somewhat stretched.

"Is 6 people not enough?"

There is a look of worry in Zhu Xu's eyebrows. In Sichuan, there are Qin Liangyu's Xiaocavalry Army and Qin Minping's Leopard Cavalry Army. There are a total of 6 horses. However, the situation in Sichuan may be even worse than he expected.

Zhu Xu thought about it, put it aside, and continued flipping through it.

Not long after, he also saw the memorabilia of the Chief Secretary of Huguang, Shaanxi, and Shandong, all of which said that this year's severe drought had reduced summer grain production, and he asked for a reduction in taxes and relief.

Zhu Xu put down the notebook, stood up, walked outside the door, and took a deep breath.

Cao Huachun glanced at the few playbooks on the table, he knew it, followed Zhu Xu to the eaves, silent.

Zhu Xu folded his hands behind his back, looked outside the blue, was silent for a while, and said: "Pass the decree to Zuo Liangyu, lead Zhao to teach them, let them prepare, choose an opportunity to attack Annan, tell them, I want money, I want food, I don't need money." occupied!"

Before Cao Huachun finished speaking, Zhu Xu went on to say: "Pass the decree to Luo Yang, and give me more strength. I want to use troops in the south, and I want the biggest harvest at the smallest cost!"

"Pass the decree to North Korea, let Qin Yiming and Jin Zhongshan spy on the news of the Wa country, the more detailed the better."

"Pass the decree to Yuan Keli and Xiong Wencan, let them strengthen their sea exercises, try to go as far as possible, and simulate attacking the island."

……

Cao Huachun had no chance to interrupt, so he could only listen carefully.

Chapter 373

In the entire Ming Dynasty, perhaps only Zhu Xu could realize how serious this natural disaster was.

This natural disaster lasted for a long time and was so severe that there are no examples in the world for 5000 years.

Natural disasters are accompanied by man-made disasters, and Daming will experience a crisis that he has never encountered before.

Zhu Xu passed on more than a dozen decrees in succession, all of which were directed at the border generals of Daming. With all these troubles, he didn't have the heart to continue to approve the memorial. He looked at the weather outside, stretched out his arms, and said, "Call Change into a dragon and leave the palace."

Cao Huachun had already gone to the Supervisor of Rites to draw up the decree, Liu Shimin responded and went to prepare.

"My lord, where are we going?"

Liu Shimin, dressed in casual clothes, followed behind Zhu Xu, glanced around, and asked in a low voice.

Zhu Xu was walking on the street, holding a folding fan in his hand, and said with a smile, "Go to the south."

"South?" Liu Shimin was startled, but soon realized that the emperor was going to the Military and Political Academy.

Cao Bianjiao and his people, all in casual clothes, followed Zhu Xu not far or near, and were vigilant about the surroundings.

In the weather in August, the sun is like a stove. Walking on the street, the whole body is steaming, making people breathless.

Zhu Xu covered his head with a fan and looked at the sky. Today's weather is at least 45 degrees, and the ground temperature should be [-] degrees.Such weather is very rare at this time.

Liu Shimin was also hot and sweating profusely, following Zhu Xu's side, seeing that Zhu Xu's pace was a bit slow, he seemed to want to go for a walk, so he couldn't help saying: "Your Majesty, it's too hot, let's go back quickly."

Zhu Xu nodded. In this weather, it is easy to suffer from heat stroke, so he quickened his pace.

Not long after, they came to a huge courtyard. There was a large stone tablet in front of the courtyard, with the words "Royal Military Academy" engraved on it.

Zhu Xu’s face was a little hot. It’s not because of the weather. These four characters were actually written by him, but the carved characters were strong and firm. totally different.

"I still need to practice more..."

Zhu Xu muttered and walked in.
