First Prince of Ming Dynasty

After a while, Liu Jin came in and said, "Master, Governor Chen is asking to see you."

Zhu Biao put down the paper in his hand and said casually, "Call in."

Different from others, Chen Youzong will be the link between Zhu Biao and the aristocratic family in the future, and he is also the person he wants to promote and reuse. Naturally, he has to find out the details, whether he really has administrative ability, or just relying on his family background to make Hangzhou so prosperous .

What I saw just now was all his policies since he took office. Although he was suspected of taking advantage of his family background, this person's ability is still good, and it is more than enough for a magistrate.

Then transfer to Zhongshu Province first, and then find an opportunity to be transferred to the Ministry of Household Affairs as a servant. It will be easy to arrange in the future. The current official positions of the court are still relatively chaotic, and some yamen have overlapping responsibilities. Zhu Biao also plans to tidy up after returning to Beijing.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Chen Youzong's voice, told him to get up and sit down, and said: "I will return to Beijing tomorrow, and you will finish the Jiangnan affairs. If you do well, you will be rewarded. If you want to lie to the world, don't blame Ben." The palace is ruthless."

Chen Youzong nodded. He naturally understood that His Highness was worried that the family would be playing tricks on the matter of returning the land. After all, this was not a matter of the imperial court. If the family had a heart, the land would still return to them in the end.

Chen Youzong stood up and said: "Don't worry, Your Highness, if this matter is not resolved thoroughly, I will not have the face to go to Beijing to see Your Highness."

He was called by his old mother when he returned to the mansion just now. When he arrived, the whole family was looking at the jade pendant in his daughter's hand. Chen Youzong could tell at a glance that it was made by the imperial court. Thinking about it like this, he understood everything.

Looking at Chen Youzong's expression, Zhu Biao knew that there was no problem with this matter, not to mention that he would also stay in the pro-military captain's mansion to observe secretly. Accepted.

The above-board raids can really alleviate the needs of the court. The best is the Zhang family. Zhu Biao is a little greedy when he looks at the family property on the bright side. This is really not a family property that can be saved by one or two generations. one of the horses.

Zhu Biao thought for a while and said: "In the past, it was a troubled time. It was normal for your family to recruit some dead guards, but now it is different. The imperial court will not allow you to have such a power. It may be an opponent of the imperial court, let it go, don't leave any excuses for yourself."

Chen Youzong bowed to promise, and then said: "It's easy for me to wait. If the fields are gone, there will not be many people left. I just don't know how the Li family will arrange it. If those desperadoes are released, there may be troubles."

Zhu Biao was right when he thought so. Salt dealers are extremely unstable. Even without the Li family, they would not be at ease as good citizens. However, killing them all would be a waste. It would be better to send them to the sea to replenish Tang Ding's manpower.

If it is true, it is not impossible to give the Li family an official position, and selling private salt is not a capital crime for Zhu Biao, after all, it is a necessity of life. I'm sorry, but how can people live without salt.

After thinking about it, they all ordered Chen Youzong to make arrangements, and carefully instructed the release of the tenants to distribute the fields. If done well, the development of Ming Dynasty could be accelerated a lot. Jiangnan is a good place after all.

When it was late at night, Chen Youzong retreated, and Zhu Biao also took a rest. He really wanted to have a good time, but unfortunately there is no time to waste now. It’s like working harder when plowing in spring, harvesting in autumn and storing in winter can lead to a prosperous year.

Early the next morning, Zhu Biao had breakfast at Chen's Mansion, and then went out of the city to return to Beijing. A large group of people saw him off at the gate of the city, but Zhu Biao didn't show up, so he asked Liu Jin to go down and say a few words, otherwise he would be It's not over.

A few days later, he arrived outside the city of Nanjing. When Zhu Biao returned to Beijing, he was naturally greeted by many people, even Hu Weiyong. Now even Zhu Biao had to show some respect.

Looking at the group of people on the ground, Zhu Biao jumped off the horse and helped Hu Weiyong, the leader, with a smile and said, "I have been away for a long time, and I haven't congratulated Xiang Hu on his promotion to the right prime minister."

Hu Weiyong bowed humbly and replied: "How dare you accept His Highness's congratulations, Your Highness has been working hard for the country, and I wish I could serve you for you.

Zhu Biao smiled, Hu Weiyong was still very cautious at this time, and the other officials came forward to greet him one by one, besides civil officials, many honorable and military generals also came to greet him.

A group of people returned to the city mightily. When Zhu Biao entered the gate of the city, he looked at the guards and soldiers saluting on the ground beside him. The leader was clearly Lan Yu, and Zhu Biao snorted coldly and said, "How is General Lan, is he still arrogant? "

After finishing speaking, he left without waiting for his reply. Sapphire dared to open a dyeing workshop if he gave three points of color, and he would have to hold on for another two years, otherwise he really didn't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick. He is gone.

The officials behind Zhu Biao looked at each other, stepped forward to help Lan Yu and comforted him: "The love is deep and the responsibility is serious. What I am afraid of is that His Highness will treat you without you. If you can scold you now, you will remember you. General Sooner or later there will be a day of recovery."

Lan Yu is not a fool, so she naturally knows the reason why Zhu Biao scolded him specially. If the crown prince just passed by like this, then Lan Yu would lose face, and calmly said to the officials who comforted him: "The last general still needs to If you are on duty at the city gate, you will not have to accompany me any more, so hurry up and catch up with His Highness."

It was noon now, Zhu Biao went straight to the palace after a while with the officials, thinking that his father should be dealing with government affairs in the imperial study, so he was taken to Kunning Palace by the maids around Empress Ma.

Zhu Biao felt very happy when he walked in the palace. No matter how beautiful the south of the Yangtze River is, it is better than his own home. This kind of peace of mind can’t be experienced outside. When he walked to the gate of Kunning Palace, he saw his princess standing there beautifully. .

Seeing Zhu Biao arrived at Chang Luohua, he hurried up to greet him, but when he was about to bow down, he was held back by his husband. Chang Luohua was a little embarrassed, so Zhu Biao patted her hand with a smile and asked, "Father, queen, mother exist?"

Chang Luohua smiled softly and said, "I'm all waiting for His Highness. The emperor will come to Kunning Palace after his father comes down."

Zhu Biao nodded and walked in. Inside, Empress Ma was coaxing Zhu Lu in her arms, while Zhu Yuanzhang was watching the memorial and glanced at Zhu Lu from time to time. After all, she was the little girl from the first line, and Lao Zhu loved it very much.

After Zhu Biao led Chang Luohua into the house, he saw this scene, walked forward with a smile and knelt down and kowtowed: "The son is back, and the empress Lao father misses him."

Before Zhu Yuanzhang could speak to Empress Ma, Zhu Lu rushed towards her brother. The little girl is six years old, so it's hard for her to remember her own brother even though she hasn't recognized her birth for so long.

Empress Ma was also quite excited and hurriedly called him, Zhu Biao stood up holding Zhu Lu, and then looked at his father, the father and son had nothing nasty to say on this occasion.

Empress Ma pulled Zhu Biao to be concerned, Old Zhu seemed to concentrate on reading the memorial, but actually listened carefully for a while, and when he saw that there was no problem, he coughed and said, "Okay, no one dares to treat him badly, let's have a meal. "
