Chapter 239: Tianjin Returns

After sending away the two counterinsurgency troops, Zhu Youxiao had nothing to do again, and he was tortured by a boring life, and even secretly regretted it, he knew that he had gone to the imperial army in person, so why did he stay in the capital. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Originally, he planned to personally lead people to quell the rebellion, but Xu Guangqi's words dispelled his thoughts.

"Your Majesty, now that the autumn is approaching, the governor of Hebei Province's yamen has gradually been formed and started to operate, and the Dali Temple and the Metropolitan Procuratorate have gradually begun to work, these are all implemented by His Majesty, at this time His Majesty left Beijing, there was a problem, and the ministers could not be resolved!"

These are all new things, except for the emperor, no one knows what they should do, there is really a problem, and the ministers do not dare to make a decision without authorization, they still have to ask the emperor, and the emperor is far away in the south of the Yangtze River, and it takes countless hours to go back and forth, which is very inconvenient.

After hearing these words, Zhu Youxiao, who was originally very determined, was shaken, and after thinking about it again, he still decided to stay in the capital, this is not a major battle against Jurchen, it is just a farce made by a group of landlord scholars, and it is enough to have Li Tao go. Besides, his subordinates are going to release exercise and exercise, and they can't stay under their own hands, otherwise how can they be alone.

In this way, he let his subordinates out, and Zhu Youxiao stayed by himself, but it didn't take long for him to regret it.

"Why don't you go to the Tiangong Research Institute to have a look?" Zhu Youxiao thought so, his feet kept moving, and he turned the corner directly.

For example, today the Palace Research Institute has moved to the Imperial City, there is no way, the information inside is too important, it is not safe to put it outside, and only by placing it in the Imperial City can people feel at ease.

Besides, when the national standard was formulated, a large number of documents were needed, and where would there be so many people who could write in the western suburbs, only Jingshi had them, so after thinking about it again and again, Zhu Youxiao moved it back.

The location of the Tiangong Research Institute is now at the foot of the coal mountain, where the environment is quiet and far away from the palace, even if there is any movement, it will not disturb the rest in the palace.

Of course, the road up the coal mountain was full of vigilance, after all, this was a commanding height, and he didn't want to be unknowingly shot in his sleep one day.

The palace is very large, but after the implementation of the four-wheeled carriage, Zhu Youxiao's travel is still very convenient, and he arrived at the Tiangong Research Institute after a while, but after arriving here, Zhu Youxiao regretted coming.

Busy, it's too busy here, the clerical craftsmen who shuttle back and forth, they are all leading away, and from time to time a few roars come from some rooms, thinking that their paperwork is running too slowly.

Everyone here is focused on doing their own thing, and no one even notices that the emperor is coming.

"Forget it, don't notify Xu Aiqing, let's go, don't disturb them." Zhu Youxiao stopped Liu Ruoyu's announcement and left with someone.

Soon after he left, Xu Guangqi hurriedly ran out of it in disheveled clothes, and walked around the door, he said suspiciously, "Hey, didn't you say that the emperor is here?" What about people? ”

Seeing that there was no one at the door, he touched his head and muttered back, and when he listened carefully, he could still hear clearly that there were some mathematical concepts in his mouth.

After leaving the Tiangong Research Institute, Zhu Youxiao was at a loss for a while, and there was no place to go.

The army either goes out to quell the rebellion, or goes out to recruit soldiers, so the military camp can't go, and the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion is now busy, and the staff logistics training and training equipment are not idle, and it is not easy to go there.

Where are you going to inspect now?

After thinking about it for a while, Zhu Youxiao didn't think of any good places to go. He really had the feeling of looking around at a loss.

"Wait, there's like there's another place." Zhu Youxiao looked up to the east, where the port and shipyard of Tianjin were.

"By the way, let's go there, just take a look, and see how the research on the new ships is going." Zhu Youxiao patted his head and decided, "It just so happens that I still have a batch of wood to be transported here." ”

"Liu Ruoyu, prepare the frame, I'm going to Tianjin."

His words made Liu Ruoyu run and break his leg, the emperor's travel is a big deal, especially not to follow the army, travel alone, all aspects must be taken care of. It is necessary to notify the guards, to ask the Jinyi guards to go to the outpost, to contact the cabinet, in short, a lot of things.

For the emperor to go to Tianjin, there is nothing to say about the cabinet, the Beijing division is so close to Tianjin, at most, it is only half a day's fast horse, and you can get in touch at once.

The next day, Zhu Youxiao took Liu Ruoyu, who had dark circles under his eyes, and set off slowly under the escort of a thousand cavalry, and behind them was a huge team of frames, which were piled with thick timber.

These timbers were found by Zhu Youxiao in the inner library, all of them were building timbers accumulated over the years, and this time they were dragged out by him and sent to the shipyard, anyway, he didn't have the idea of overhauling the palace, and it was useless to pile up these timbers in the palace, so it was better to send them to shipbuilding.

It's just that dragging these woods is, Zhu Youxiao didn't notice Wang Chengen's dead expression, these are all good and precious wood, and they were taken by the emperor to build ships, what a waste.

Of course, Zhu Youxiao doesn't know about these, and he won't care if he knows, what is the precious wood? Can I eat it? In his opinion, the cannons of giant ships are the real wealth.

A long convoy came to Tianjin, and when passing by Tianjin Wei, Zhu Youxiao did not stop, but directly crossed over and headed towards the port.

However, the new Tianjin prefect followed. Tianjin Wei has become history, and at this time it was a province under the jurisdiction of Hebei Province.

After several years of expansion, the port area has been very large, including the original entire shipyard, the entire Tianjin port is divided into three parts, the military port area, the civil port area, and the shipyard area.

At present, it seems that the port of Tianjin is basically completed, but it is empty, and there are not many ships loading and unloading goods here. The construction team that stayed here has been disbanded, and everyone has belonged to the Ministry of Works and went to repair the road.

Now staying in the port to be in charge of dispatching and commanding is Ding Mian, the original person in charge of the construction team of the port, Zhu Youxiao is really familiar with this name, it should be an old man who has been here in Tianjin for a long time.

"Do a good job, wait a while, and I will let you enter the inner mansion." After patting the other party's shoulder, Zhu Youxiao couldn't wait to get into the shipyard, leaving only Ding Mian who was excited.

His identity in charge of port management is very embarrassing, it stands to reason that this should be the jurisdiction of the local government, but the imperial navy is stationed here, and the emperor's eyes are often concerned, and the new Tianjin prefect does not dare to reach out even if he eats the gall of a leopard.

And Ding Mian is not a soldier, and there is no production plant here, because the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion and the Inner Government did not give him a reasonable identity, he did it in this way, although all aspects respected him, but Ding Mian himself is not a taste, he has no official body, and he feels inferior when he sees anything.

Now that it's okay, the emperor himself said that he is in charge of the Ghost Inner Mansion, and with his own status, the emperor will definitely give him a high rank, and he can be regarded as having a right background.

Ding Mian sighed in his heart, who would have thought that he, a poor and sour talent who broke his family, would be able to become an official one day.

"The grass people greet Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" As soon as he entered, Zhu Youxiao ushered in the cry of the mountain and the tsunami, and the crowd that was originally black and oppressive fell to his knees in an instant, which looked very spectacular, and of course, it also made Zhu Youxiao jump.

"No rudeness!" Zhu Youxiao waved his hand to let everyone get up, and then frowned and asked, "Which one is the person in charge of the shipyard?" ”

"Grass people..... oh no, Weichen is." An old man stood up, looking at his demeanor, obviously not quite adapting to his new identity. This is the normal reaction of many people who have been classified as the inner government, in the past, they were just grass people, who would have thought that as soon as they turned around, they were awarded the official status, although it was only a rank, but it was also equal to the rank of a civil official, except for the power of the official, nothing else.

"Are you...... Elderly? Zhu Youxiao said with some uncertainty.

"Your Majesty still remembers the grass people....... Weichen is really ...... It's really ......." Seeing that His Majesty the Emperor still had an impression of himself, Gao Lao Deng's expression was excited, and even his self-claim became messy.

"I have always remembered those who have worked hard." After comforting the other party, he continued to ask, "Didn't I tell you before, don't do anything to greet you, just stay at your post." ”

"This ......" After calming down, Elder Gao said with some embarrassment, "Your Majesty doesn't know, these people ...... They all gathered spontaneously, and they just wanted to see His Majesty ........ After speaking, he cautiously glanced at it, for fear that the emperor would be angry because of this.

Just to look at me!

This reason was very powerful, and Zhu Youxiao was speechless for a moment. I have become a rare animal, and everyone wants to see it.

However, this is also normal, the entire Ming Empire, hundreds of millions of people, can see the emperor, only a handful, and those officials in Gyeonggi who can go to court, others, even if it is a lot of local officials, it is normal to have never seen the emperor in their lives, this is still a normal emperor, if you meet Wanli like this, there are no more than 1,000 ministers who have seen him.

Many people, whether they were commoners or gentry, often regarded it as the honor of their lives to meet the emperor, and after seeing him once, they were able to speak for a lifetime.

Looking at the shipyard workers who were secretly looking at themselves, as if they were looking at aliens, Zhu Youxiao was very powerless, so he could only wave his hand helplessly, "Let them all disperse, see and see, hurry back to work." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Elder Gao answered, turned around, took a few steps forward, and roared angrily, "It's all scattered, go back to your own place." ”

Gao Lao's WeChat here is still very high, and after yelling, the workers gradually dispersed. Seeing this situation, Zhang Shize, who commanded a thousand cavalry and was responsible for protecting the emperor's safety, breathed a sigh of relief, and his nervous expression relaxed.
