Daming: Refining zombies at the beginning, Lao Zhu was shocked

In the past few days, Zhu Yuanzhang has been paying close attention to Zhu Biao's schedule!

Just when Zhu Biao entered the northwest, the news sent by Jinyiwei's horse arrived at Hanzhong Mansion!

"Lao Jiu, your eldest brother will arrive at Xi'an Mansion tomorrow at the latest!"

"How about we, father and son, go to Xi'an Mansion and wait!"

After finishing breakfast, Zhu Yuanzhang directly suggested to Zhu Yue.

"Okay, my son will make arrangements now and we will leave for Xi'an Mansion later!"

Zhu Yue agreed directly.

Anyway, the imperial court also moved its capital to Xi'an, not to Hanzhong!

Zhu Di had no objection to this.

"By the way, bring Feng'er and Qiu'er with you!"

Zhu Yuanzhang ordered Zhu Yue again.

Zhu Yue has no objection to this. The old man is also very considerate of these two boys. He is willing to take the two children with him at all times. It can also be seen that the old man attaches great importance to the two children!

Soon, a group of five people, including the grandfather, grandson, father and son, got into Zhu Yuanzhang's luxurious carriage and headed straight to Xi'an Mansion with five hundred iron guards!

At this moment, Zhu Di felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

Not only do all of Lao Jiu's guards wear armor, even the horses are covered in soft armor. Even if they don't know what their combat effectiveness is, they are enough to be enviable!

In terms of momentum alone, these brave guards far surpass the most elite cavalry under their command!

Knowing the whole leopard at a glance, Zhu Di felt that if the numbers were equal, the Hanzhong army under Lao Jiu was enough to crush his own Yan army!

How come the gap between people is so big?

Because I followed Zhu Yuanzhang in a luxurious carriage, I set off from Hanzhong Mansion in the morning and when I arrived at Xi'an Mansion, the sun was about to set!

According to the news reported by Jin Yiwei, Zhu Biao should arrive in Xi'an around the same time tomorrow!

They all still have one day to prepare!

After entering Xi'an City, Zhu Di also saw the renovated Prince Qin's Palace, which should now be said to be the new palace of the Ming Dynasty!

Although it is not up to the overall standard of the palace, at least it is usable!

Everyone feels that this is just a temporary palace, and new palaces will be built in the future!

But except for Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yue and Zhu Biao, no one else knew that this temporary palace would take at least ten years!

After all, before the capital is moved to Beiping, the palace will definitely not be built elsewhere!

It’s not necessary!

The last time Zhu Di came here, he traveled incognito and did not reveal his identity. In addition, the new palace was still being renovated at the time, so he was not able to enter it!

Even now, many places in the new palace are still being renovated, but some key areas have been improved in advance to make them usable!

Other relatively unimportant places will be left to continue to be renovated slowly!

Now that they have arrived at Xi'an Mansion, Zhu Yuanzhang and the others simply moved into the new palace.

Looking at the Fengtian Palace in front of him, Zhu Yuanzhang was quite satisfied. Although it was not as grand as the Fengtian Palace in the Yingtian Palace, it was still enough!

Now Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't value these very much!

Anyway, when Lao Jiu becomes emperor and moves the capital to Beiping, he will build a more grand Forbidden City. There is no need for him to continue to build a palace for more than ten years!

In addition, the Imperial Guards who had escorted Zhu Yuanzhang to the northwest had already arrived at the New Imperial Palace to garrison in advance!

It can be said that in terms of function, the current Xi'an Palace is no different from the Yingtian Palace!

After a while, Zhu Yuanzhang can continue to attend the morning court in this Fengtian Palace!

In addition, the offices of the Liubu Yamen are still under construction and will take more than a month to be completed at the earliest.

However, no one is in a hurry, and it is not going to be operational soon. The six departments in Yingtian Mansion are still operating normally!

During this period, all memorials will be expedited through eight hundred miles, and will be sent from Yingtian Mansion to Xi'an Mansion every day.

In addition, the cement road has been opened, so the trip only takes a few days, and basically it will not delay any major national events!

……

The next day, afternoon.

On the concrete avenue more than ten miles east of Xi'an Mansion, a group of people was moving quickly.

In addition to Zhu Biao's luxurious carriage, the six ministers and accompanying officials were all on other carriages!

On the other hand, Lan Yu and other noble generals did not need carriages at all, they basically all rode horses!

Along the way, the accompanying officials also experienced the comfortable experience of driving on the cement road. Compared with the bumpy official roads before, the feeling was simply heaven and earth!

Especially after entering the northwest boundary, you can clearly feel that the business atmosphere here is very strong, and there are an endless stream of caravans traveling from north to south on the road!

This kind of scene is rare even in Yingtian Mansion!

You know, they haven't arrived in Xi'an yet!

It can be said that this trip to the northwest gave everyone a more intuitive understanding of the prosperity of the northwest, and made everyone feel that the trip was worthwhile!

If before coming to the Northwest, most people were still a little skeptical and cautious about moving the capital, then after arriving in the Northwest, everyone's mentality has changed!

In the past, they were mainly worried that the northwest was not as good as the previous rumors, but now it seems that the actual situation in the northwest will only be better than what they heard or imagined!

At this moment, Zhu Biao, who was sitting in the luxurious carriage, was also filled with excitement!

We are finally going to Xi’an!

I haven’t seen him for several months, and I don’t know how the old man is doing now.

There is also the fourth child, Zhu Di, who was also summoned to the northwest by the old man. He will soon see the two brothers, the ninth and the fourth brother, whom he has not seen for many years, which makes Zhu Biao even more excited!

"Dong Guo Liang, how long will it take to get to Xi'an Mansion?"

Zhu Biao couldn't help but ask Lan Yu outside the carriage.

"Your Highness, we can already see the city of Xi'an in front of us!"

Lan Yu's voice rang with excitement!

"Is this coming soon?"

After Zhu Biao heard this, he hurried to the window and looked forward!

I saw a huge city looming ahead, it must be Xi'an Mansion!

Not only Zhu Biao, but also officials from the other six ministries, including Li Xin, looked curiously at the approaching Xi'an City and began to talk about it!

Basically all of them came to the northwest for the first time. As Beijing officials, most of them had rarely served in the northwest, even if they had served in local areas. It can also be said that they had never really seen the situation in the northwest with their own eyes. !

In the past, we only knew that the northwest was poor and very dangerous, but now the northwest is the richest and safest region in the Ming Dynasty!
