First Prince of Ming Dynasty

After the discussion between the father and father, Zhu Biao began to carefully watch the important affairs inside and outside the court during this period. His father, the emperor, was about to go on a northern tour, and he needed to follow up on some government affairs that were still in progress.

First of all, Chu Wang Zhu Bing did a good job in disaster relief and peace of the people. The people affected by the disaster have generally been resettled, and the disaster situation has also slowed down. Taking advantage of the spring to resume farming, the burden on the court is greatly reduced.

Corrupt officials, rich and unkind wealthy businessmen and gentry will naturally have their homes ransacked and their families wiped out. Zhu Biao did not deal with it by himself but went to the court according to the regulations. Zhu Biao was also very satisfied with this.

Then there is the supply of food and grass for the frontier garrison. Nanxiong Hou Zhaoyong and the others have successfully completed it. Compared with the loss on the way of transportation last year, this time it is undoubtedly much less. It can be seen that Zhu Biao's warning before their departure has worked. No one is greedy.

Zhu Biao frowned when he read the memorial of Wu Liang, Marquis of Jiangyin. The supplies that Wu Liang's ocean-going fleet should have raised had been unable to be raised since a month ago. The indemnity is no longer helping to raise money, only the Zhangchen family in Hangzhou are still doing their best.

It can be seen that this is a soft threat from the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River. They want to let the court know that it is difficult for us not to help the court's government affairs in the local area.

It is true, without the help of local officials, merchants, gentry, and the Marquis of Jiangyin, who was exhausted, could not raise enough supplies for Yuanyang. How dare you make a fuss about this matter, you're courting death!

Zhu Biao put down the memorial and said coldly: "I really can't see how courageous they are on weekdays. They dare to be so intentionally negligent in the important affairs of the court. It's really an unforgivable crime!"

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't look up, but he knew why his son was angry, and he was the only one who knew how much his son valued the ocean affairs, so he said calmly: "It's a good thing to see it clearly early, don't think that everyone is submissive in front of you on weekdays. When they are really like this, it's just that you didn't dig out their roots and coaxed you to be happy."

Zhu Biao let out a breath, his sharp eyebrows softened quickly, and his anger turned into anger, but in fact, it was still expected. The most important thing for the imperial court in the south of the Yangtze River in recent years was the preparation of the ocean-going fleet. Being locked up, it is natural to have to deal with it.

In the end, it is estimated that someone will come to ask for credit. After all, after Zhu Biao was banned, the red mouth and white teeth said that it was a bad policy to let His Royal Highness return to the court as soon as possible to participate in politics, and then secretly prepared Once the good materials are handed over, what else can Zhu Biao say?

Zhu Biao was not in a hurry after he knew it in his mind. There was a high probability that this matter would not be delayed. Chen Youzong should have known it. If it was really possible to be delayed, he must have found a way to send a letter into the East Palace.

Looking at other memorials again, there are meteors as big as a cup in the night of Qin Tianjian's report, blue-red, starting from Zaofu and traveling northwest about five feet, passing through Ziwei Dongfan to Gochenmi.

The Ministry of War made a report, so Yuan Guo Gongshu reprimanded donkeys and others for leading soldiers to Qian'an County to plunder the people. Li Zhi, a thousand households of Yongping Guards, led his infantry to chase them, and captured many. The rest of the soldiers were defeated. The soldiers' works will be rewarded by the Ministry of War for their meritorious service.

Commander Zhu Gaozuo of the Yanshan Guard led the troops to seize more than 900 households of the army and civilians who were defeated in the old Yuan Dynasty in Yixing Jinchuan and other places behind the mountain. Please assign the young and strong to each guard as the army's garrison, and the old and weak to Beiping as the people's followers. , the last approval.

The Metropolitan Governor's Mansion played Wude Weihuo to help more than 100 soldiers, more than 180 widows, and more than 300 children. They were short of food and clothing and could not survive. Please be merciful, and each of the first batch will be given three stones of rice Two pieces of cloth, sergeants without wives, widows and children, get married as soon as possible.

After more than an hour, all the government affairs, large and small, were all over. Zhu Biao leaned back in his chair and drank from a tea cup. I was a little tired, but my mind was at peace. It's true that a man can't live without power for a day.

Zhu Yuanzhang stretched wearily and said, "Go and see your mother, and you will deal with the rest after we leave Beijing."

Zhu Biao got up and promised that his father would go to Kunning Palace even if he didn't say anything. Since ancient times, filial piety has been used to rule the world, from the emperor to the common people. He was not allowed to visit during his confinement, but Chang Luohua did not. It was the one who went to say hello on his behalf every day.

Now that I have left the East Palace, I have to go there in person, otherwise the censors at Yushitai really dare to join him. Some censors are really not afraid of death. It can be said that they can't wait to admonish the king with death. It is good to prove the Taoist name and leave it in history.

To be honest, people who look at death as home are invincible in the court. If you kill this kind of person, you are fulfilling him. Sometimes Zhu Biao hates him very much, but sometimes he admires him very much. Those who have faith, even the ants are already in the temple.

These days, most of the officials at Yushitai have been imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of punishment. If Hu Weiyong hadn't accused them of neglecting their responsibilities in order to clear their names, they would all have to go to the prison of the Ministry of punishment one after another.

"Slaves, see Your Highness, Your Highness Qianqiu!"

As soon as Zhu Biao left the Jinshen Hall, the servants guarding the gate rushed to kowtow, their joy and encouragement were beyond words, Zhu Biao was also amused to see it: "Excuse me, what's the matter?"

The leading eunuch raised a big smile and said: "The slaves are happy to see His Highness, happy."

Zhu Biao smiled and stretched out his hand to pat him on the head and said, "Anxin is on duty, let's go."

"promise."

Everyone raised their eyes to look at His Highness the Crown Prince, and felt that their minds were at peace. These days, their errands were panic-stricken, and the emperor lost his temper every day and scolded the officials of the various ministries. They just felt that it was the dragon's prestige they had received. Because His Highness is not here.

Today, His Highness has been in the palace for a long time, guessing that the two of you are reconciled as before, and looking forward to the stars and the moon is finally here.

Zhu Biao stepped into the harem from the rear right door to the Qianqing Gate. Along the way, he met many happy faces who came to kowtow to say hello. It can be seen that the prince is the country's foundation, not only reflected outside, but also inside the palace.

Although the Wei Guan case and the suspension of the imperial examinations are so serious, if Zhu Biao is dismissed from the position of prince, it will be a real rebellion. Zhu Biao, the prince, is too stable. It is too wide, and the followers of the crowd are all over the world.

Bypassing the Qianqing Palace, this is the residence of the emperor, with a height of more than 20 meters from the table top to the ridge, with double eaves and a huge roof. Hexi color painting.

Generally, Lao Zhu rests in this hall by himself. After all, if it is too late to review the memorials, the lights of the Kunning Palace will be turned off. Empress Ma has felt light in recent years, and Lao Zhu does not want to disturb her at night.

After the Qianqing Palace is the Kunning Palace, where the emperor resides in Qian and the empress resides in Kun, the sky is cleared, the earth is peaceful, everything is alive, and the king thinks the world is right.

Zhu Biao straightened his sleeves in front of the hall before entering, thinking about the movement along the way, the queen mother had already received news, but after entering the main hall, she first saw the second, fourth, fifth, and sixth children making noise .

"Hey, big brother is here, but it can be counted."

"Big Brother, Father, have you released your restraint? We were stopped even if we wanted to see you."

This group was not as sensible as the group of maids and eunuchs just now, they crowded up chattering, and two pairs of black hands and several pairs of small white hands began to pat him up and down, as if they were very worried that he would be beaten in Jinshen Palace.

Zhu Biao was the first to take pictures of the second and fourth sons who opened up wasteland and farmed land: "It's almost done, why are you here, where is the queen mother?"

The fifth child replied obediently: "When the elder brother went to the Wuying Hall, the concubine mother led us here, but I didn't expect that the elder brother went to the Jinshen Hall for so long, and the queen mother and the others went to the imperial garden behind to enjoy the flowers when they were bored. That's it, we just wait here if we don't want to see the flowers."
