The daily life of the great grandson of Ming Dynasty

On the way to Beijing, Zhu Di visited the people's situation by the way.

Zhu Zhanji went to the ground with Zhu Di to understand the people's sentiments.Not only that, but he often helps farmers with farm work with Zhu Di.For example, plowing, weeding, pest control, etc.

Sometimes on the way, when encountering farmers who need help, Zhu Di will also send people to help.Before Zhu Di sent troops, his soldiers often helped farmers do some things. They even helped the common people repair their roofs.

It was originally a journey of more than a month, but because Zhu Di and the others stopped and stopped, they arrived in Beijing after walking for more than two months.

The return of Zhu Di and Zhu Zhanji to Beijing is a great joy for the people of Beijing.

For more than a year, the people in Beijing have been looking forward to the stars and the moon every day, waiting for Zhu Zhanji to come back.

Zhu Zhanji is a very important existence to ordinary people in Beijing.For more than a year, Zhu Zhanji was not in Beijing, and the people in Beijing felt that Beijing was much deserted.Not only that, with the absence of His Royal Highness, they all felt that they lacked a backbone.

Seeing His Royal Highness come back now, the common people in Beijing are naturally very happy.

On the day Zhu Di and Zhu Zhanji arrived in Beijing, all the people in Beijing welcomed them back.

For Zhu Zhanji, returning to Beijing is equivalent to returning to his home.

As soon as Zhu Di arrived in Beijing, he took Zhu Zhanji to inspect Beijing and cared about the lives of ordinary people in Beijing.

The common people in Beijing were of course very touched by the emperor's concern.

They were worried that the emperor would go to Nanjing and they forgot about Beijing.Unexpectedly, not only did the emperor not forget Beijing, but he always missed Beijing.What's more, he didn't expect the emperor to return to Beijing one year after he ascended the throne to care about their well-being.

After Zhu Di cared about the lives of ordinary people in Beijing, he began to inspect the border.Sure enough, Zhu Di guessed it right. After he left Beijing, some forces in Beiyuan became dishonest.Fortunately, they didn't dare to be rampant, they just made small troubles on the border.

Those restless forces in Beiyuan wanted to go south, but they knew Zhu Di's power well, so they dared not act rashly.The reason why they fight on the border is to test.

They didn't expect Zhu Di to return to Beijing not long after they tried it out.

After Zhu Di returned to Beijing, he rearranged the deployment of the border.

Although Zhu Di asked Zhu Gaochi to stay in Nanjing to supervise the country, he took away half of the ministers.Among the half of the ministers, there are still many capable ministers, such as Yang Shiqi and Yang Rong.

Zhu Di brought half of his ministers to Beijing, so he naturally had to deal with political affairs.This led to the imperial court in Nanjing and the imperial court in Beijing.

The imperial court in Beijing is exactly the same as the imperial court in Nanjing, and there are also six imperial courts.

Zhu Di did this to prepare in advance for moving the capital to Beijing.

Zhu Zhanji had already guessed Zhu Di's purpose for doing this, and Yang Shiqi and Yang Rong also vaguely guessed.

Regarding the move of the capital to Beijing, Yang Shirong and Yang Rong actually disapproved, but Zhu Di didn't bring it up, and they couldn't say it directly.

Zhu Di not only set up the imperial court in Beijing, but also found someone to design the drawings of the Beijing Imperial Palace.Zhu Di did not intend to move the Nanjing Palace to Beijing as it was.

With a new dynasty and a new atmosphere, and the capital city being changed to Beijing, the imperial palace in Beijing must be different from the imperial palace in Nanjing.Not only that, the imperial palace in Beijing is larger and more magnificent than the imperial palace in Nanjing.

To be honest, the imperial palace in Nanjing is a bit small, and Zhu Di dislikes it.

Zhu Di wanted to move the capital to Beijing, firstly because of Beijing's important geographical location, secondly because Zhu Di was uneasy, thirdly because the imperial palace in Nanjing was small, and fourthly because he disliked Nanjing for being too beautiful and prosperous.

Regarding the construction of the imperial palace in Beijing, Zhu Zhanji gave Zhu Di a lot of ideas.In fact, he was the one who told Zhu Di about seeing the Forbidden City in his previous life.

On this day, Zhu Di received a letter from Ma Sanbao.

This time when he came to Beijing, Ma Sanbao did not come with Zhu Di.He was sent by Zhu Di to build ships in Zhejiang.

Regarding the matter of sending Ma Sanbao to foreign countries, Zhu Di has already discussed with the ministers.More than half of the ministers in the DPRK and China are in favor.A small number of people opposed it.The minority obeys the majority,

It is confirmed that Ma Sanbao will go abroad as an envoy in the future.

In the past few months, Ma Sanbao has devoted himself to building ships in Zhejiang, and finally made some achievements.

Zhu Zhanji finished reading with Yang Shiqi and came to have lunch with Zhu Di.

"Grandfather, what happened?" Zhu Zhanji walked in, and asked curiously when he saw his grandfather smiling.

"Ma Sanbao has sent a letter, take a look." Zhu Di handed the letter from Ma Sanbao to Zhu Zhanji.

Zhu Zhanji took the letter and read it carefully.After reading it, he also smiled and said, "Eunuch Ma is really capable. He can build a ship suitable for going to sea so quickly."

"Ma Sanbao's father and grandfather were both sailors. He often went out to sea with his father and them when he was a child. He not only knows the sea very well, but also knows very well about ships." Zhu Di said with a smile, "It is most suitable for him to build ships."

"But I didn't expect him to build such a powerful ship." Although Zhu Zhanji knew that Ma Sanbao would sail to the West seven times through the golden finger book, it did not say in the book that Ma Sanbao sailed to the West. Designed and built by myself. "Eunuch Ma is really versatile."

"Ma Sanbao is very capable. You are right to suggest that he go on a mission to a foreign country."

Zhu Zhanji said: "With the speed of Eunuch Ma and the others, they will soon be able to go to foreign countries." He calculated in his heart, "We will be able to go to sea next year."

Ma Sanbao and the craftsmen have already designed ships to go to sea, and they have successfully tested the water during this period, and will vigorously produce ships to go to sea in the future.Not only that, but also prepare the materials for going to sea.

Regarding Ma Sanbao's upcoming sea trip, Zhu Di attached great importance to it, and asked Ma Sanbao to be fully prepared.

Zhu Zhanji muttered in a low voice: "It would be great if I could go to the American continent and bring the yams and corn back to Daming."

Zhu Di didn't hear Zhu Zhanji's mumbling clearly, and asked, "What did you say?"

"Grandfather, do we have maps of foreign countries?" Zhu Zhanji asked again, "Do you have a detailed map of the sea?"

"Yes, they paid tribute in Siam."

"Where is it?" Zhu Zhanji asked hurriedly.

"I have already given Ma San Bao."

"Grandfather, have you seen it?"

"I have seen."

"Then tell me which foreign countries and seas there are?"

Seeing that his precious grandson was curious, Zhu Di explained it to him in detail.

Zhu Zhanji was thinking while listening.To be precise, he checked it with the map he knew in his previous life.

In the book Goldfinger, the furthest place Zheng He traveled to was Africa.

Zhu Zhanji thought to himself that he had a world map from his previous life, but not an ancient world map.How to get Ma Sanbao to find the American continent and bring back things like yams and corn.And rubber, which is very important.

After listening to Zhu Di's story, Zhu Zhanji said enviously: "I also want to go to sea."

Hearing this, Zhu Di immediately raised his hand and tapped Zhu Zhanji's little head: "Don't even think about it."

Zhu Zhanji pouted and said, "I know, I'm just talking."

Zhu Di squeezed Zhu Zhanji's small mouth: "You can't even say it."

"Ah, why don't you even let me talk? Are you so overbearing?" Zhu Zhanji curled his lips dissatisfied and said, "I still want Ma Sanbao to go to a place."

"Where do you want Ma Sanbao to go?"

"Go to a place far away, where the products are rich, and there are many things that our Ming Dynasty and Siam countries do not have." Zhu Zhanji said, "I want Ma Sanbao to find here."

"A very far place, how far is it?" Zhu Di said as he put a piece of meat into Zhu Zhanji's mouth.

"A place that no one has ever been to." Zhu Zhanji said to Zhu Di enthusiastically, "Grandpa Emperor, there are many good things there, such as grain and minerals."

"A place that no one has been to?" Zhu Di asked in surprise, "How do you know?"

"I dreamed about it in my dream." Zhu Zhanji lied without changing his face, "Grandfather, let me tell you, the food there is very good."

"Food is great?

"This is the first time Zhu Di heard [powerful] used to describe food, "How powerful is it?" "

"It's very easy to grow, even in extremely dry places, and it can produce a lot, even a thousand catties per mu is not a problem." Zhu Zhanji emphasized, "The most important thing is that they are easy to preserve. "

Zhu Di's eyes lit up when he heard this, and his expression was slightly excited: "Really?"

Zhu Zhanji nodded vigorously: "Really!"

"You dreamed of these too?"

"Yeah, the place I dreamed about is really amazing, but it's too far away." Zhu Zhanji said, stretching out his hand and gestured, "Across a huge sea, the golden dragon in the dream flew me there, I don’t know if Eunuch Ma can be found.”

"Tell Grandpa Huang, where is the place you dreamed about?"

"Well... this is Daming..." Zhu Zhanji drew a picture on the table, "Grandfather, for example, this is our Ming Dynasty." Zhu Zhanji drew a small circle on the table, and in the small circle A large sea was drawn on the east side, and a large piece of land was drawn at the end of the sea, "Grandfather, this is the place I dreamed of, it is very big."

Zhu Di looked at the crude version of the map drawn by Zhu Zhanji, and frowned slightly: "It's indeed a bit far away."

"I want Eunuch Ma to look for it, but I don't know if I can find it." Zhu Zhanji said with a smile, "Grandpa Huang, if we find that place, we will send it."

Zhu Di was amused by Zhu Zhanji's tone of a money fanatic: "Grandpa Huang will ask Ma Sanbao to find him."

"I'll write a letter to tell Eunuch Ma myself." If the American continent can be found in advance, Daming will definitely usher in a prosperous age.

"Okay, then write to him and tell him." After talking about this, Zhu Di started to talk about other things, "Zhan Ji, do you want to go to the army?"

Hearing this, Zhu Zhanji stopped the movements in his hands, then put down the bowls and chopsticks, and asked with wide eyes, "Go to the army?"

"Yes, do you want to go to the army?"

"Now?" Zhu Zhanji asked in astonishment, "Grandpa Huang, didn't you say that you would wait until I was eight years old before letting me enter the army?"

"Grandpa Huang is asking you to enter the army now, but he doesn't want you to be a soldier." Zhu Di said with a smile, "Do you want to go?"

Zhu Zhanji immediately said happily: "I want to go, of course I want to go."

"Okay, Grandpa Emperor will take you to the army tomorrow."
