The so-called Wangu Road is a cement road, and the cement developed under the guidance of Zhu Cihong is called "Chitose Mud", which is widely used among the people.

After Zhu Cihong ascended the throne, the "thousand-year-old mud" was upgraded to "long-lived mud" among the people, and the paved road was also called "Wangu Road", which means that it will be used for 10,000 years.

An Shangda, a mason who originally freed up the "Banzai mud", has now been promoted to the left waiter of the Ministry of Engineering, and is responsible for road construction all over the country.

The official roads from Nanjing to the provinces were all supervised by the Ministry of Industry, and the official roads between the provinces were supervised by the governors.

At the prefecture, county, and township levels, there are local prefects and county governors, and the tasks are clear and included in the political achievements.

Hearing this, the Empress Dowager Zhou was overjoyed, and she said: "As long as the state affairs are thriving and the emperor is healthy, the queen mother has nothing to ask for." ”

Zhu Cihong nodded again and again.

Empress Dowager Zhou said again: "Emperor, you are now eighteen years old, you used to say that the world has not decided what is home, and the queen mother did not say much, now the world tends to be stable, and the queen mother hopes that you can find a queen to marry as soon as possible." ”

Zhu Cihong smiled and said, "Queen Mother, haven't I already ordered the draft?" Why are you still worried! ”

Empress Dowager Zhou smiled and said: "I heard that the emperor has been dating a woman surnamed Xu outside recently, if you like people, the queen mother will directly send someone to propose to the Xu family, and keep the queen's position for her during the draft." ”

Zhu Cihong's face was colorful, and he didn't expect the Empress Dowager Zhou to suddenly mention this matter.

It must be Kun Xing who wants the girl to tell the truth, or the king!

Talking about love in front of the elders, the scene was still a little embarrassing, Comrade Zhu Yishuai subconsciously picked up the teacup, his movements were a little twisted, and he didn't know how to answer.

Empress Dowager Zhou looked at Zhu Cihong's embarrassed expression at this time, and the ninja smiled and said: "The queen mother has inquired about the girl of the Xu family, she is a good girl, the queen mother is very satisfied, and she will definitely make you fulfill her wish." ”

"Okay, well, the queen mother is arranged."

Zhu Cihong was also very helpless, but fortunately, everything was harmonious, and there were no signs of family palace fighting.

After leaving the Qianqing Palace, the Empress Dowager Zhou sighed in her heart that the eldest son was not a ruthless and ruthless person, on the contrary, he was very emotional and did a good job in family affection.

As an emperor, there has always been a subtle entanglement between imperial power and family affection.

Zhu Cihong is very aware of his responsibility, not only to act like a king, but also to live like an ordinary son.

In the face of small things, he can forgive the disobedient king, and in the face of big things, he ruthlessly kills his grandfather, and he is more ruthless than anyone else.

He is such a complex and human emperor.

......

A few days later, Gongyuan Street.

There are many tall restaurants on the spacious streets.

After the examination, these restaurants were not as full as they were last month, and gradually deserted, and from time to time there were people who came and went to read each other.

Zhu Cihong and Xu Chenyun walked on the Wende Bridge in front of Yingtianfu School (Confucius Temple) and enjoyed a rare leisure time.

This Wende Bridge was built in the Wanli period, when a Taichang Temple Shaoqing surnamed Zhou believed that since the Jiajing period, there were very few Nanjing people in Enke, which should be caused by the Panchi River (inner Qinhuai River) flowing westward, unable to hold back the "Wenqi".

In order to change this situation, while renovating the Confucius Temple and Yingtianfu School, a wooden bridge was built over the Inner Qinhuai River to store "Wenqi".

At that time, there was also a bridge not far from this bridge, named "Wuning", so it was named "Wende Bridge".

In the second year after the completion of the Wende Bridge, Jiao Hong, a native of Nanjing, won the top prize, making the Wende Bridge famous.

In later generations, Zhu Cihong also came here several times, after 400 years, things have long been different, beauties have become tour guides, wooden bridges have become stone bridges......

Along the way, Zhu Cihong looked at Brother Yu Xian beside her from time to time, she was not wearing men's clothes today, nor was she wearing when she met at the Flower Dynasty Festival.

Xu Chenyun was wearing a very simple dress, a light green long skirt, with a few auspicious clouds outlined by silk threads on it, a wide piece of pale yellow brocade wrapped around the chest, and a row of blue sea clouds on the hem, which belonged to the style of the bad street.

Although Xu Chenyun was dressed plainly, she didn't bring that luxurious pearl necklace, and the clothes and decorations all over her body didn't even add up to one or two silvers, but the good looks of the people were here, and she completely wore the temperament of a seller.

Before going out, the maid Qiuyue prepared several sets of delicate, luxurious, or extravagant jewelry and clothes for her, but she didn't use any of them.

Xu Chenyun knew that Zhu Gongzi's family background was not good, and if she married Zhu Gongzi in the future, she would have to adapt to her new mother-in-law's family.

She knows very well that the daughter who marries out and the water that throws out, even if the Xu family has more wealth at that time, it has nothing to do with her.

Xu Chenyun's afterglow saw Zhu Gongzi peeking at him from time to time, and said slightly angrily: "There are so many people around, what are you looking at!" ”

Zhu Cihong smiled slightly and said: "There is no one else in your eyes, you are everywhere." ”

Xu Chenyun's face was slightly red, and she glanced at him and said, "I don't know who I talked to." ”

She is open-minded and honest.

The atmosphere has been baked here, and Zhu Cihong continued to tease: "The moon under the sea is the moon in the sky, and the person in front of you is the sweetheart. ”

Xu Chenyun's cheeks were crimson, her face was hot, she didn't dare to answer, she didn't dare to look at him, she just walked forward, as if she was protesting silently.

Zhu Cihong walked with his hands in his hands, and followed behind with a smile.

The two walked slowly on the nearby streets, and it was inevitable that some people were attracted by Xu Chenyun's appearance and looked at it frequently.

Huo Di, Zhu Cihong's eyes lit up slightly, pointed to the front, and said, "There is a study in front, why don't we go in and have a look." ”

Xu Chenyun looked up and saw that there was a three-story building in front of him, and the plaque on it read three big characters "Golden Jade Pavilion".

She nodded and said, "Good! ”

The Golden Jade Pavilion is the top study in Nanjing, there are countless precious calligraphy and paintings, and there are also high imitations of genuine products, and there are many ink treasures left by famous artists when they try.

When Xu Chenyun entered the Golden Jade Pavilion for the first time, she only felt that her eyes were bright, and she was immediately dazzled by the decoration inside and the rows of calligraphy, calligraphy and paintings, and her face was happy.

Zhu Cihong turned his eyes and didn't feel much about it, compared to the royal collection, the objects here were obviously a few grades worse.

Suddenly, a cold reprimand came from behind him: "Where did the soil buns come from, it's really an eyesore!" ”

Zhu Cihong glanced around, and found that there were only himself and Xu Chenyun within a radius of a few meters, he frowned slightly, and secretly said that he had been scolded for being a bun!

He turned around and saw that at the door, a tall, energetic young man came with a few family members.

This person is in his twenties, dressed in fine brocade and satin, and he is not ugly, but he has an arrogant face, and he looks at people with contempt, and he looks like a powerful official child.

Because ordinary rich second generations and rich generations don't dare to be so arrogant in Beijing.

Zhu Cihong didn't like it in his heart, glanced at him, and said lightly: "Are you talking about me?" ”

Xu Chenyun touched the corner of Zhu Cihong's clothes and said, "Zhu Gongzi, don't be like such a rough person. ”

Zhu Cihong smiled slightly and said, "Okay." ”

Not to mention that as an emperor and this kind of small role, Zhu Cihong must maintain a good image in front of his sweetheart, but he can't scare the beauty.......

The young man was obviously stunned, and then said unhappily: "Boy, this son said what's wrong with you, Tubaozi?" ”

A middle-aged man with a friendly face walked over with a smile, stepped forward and bowed deeply, and said, "Young Master Liu, you are in charge of the Lower Golden Jade Pavilion, you have a large number of adults, so don't meet ordinary people." ”

That Liu Gongzi pointed to his nose and said, "You know me?" ”

I only heard the middle-aged steward say: "Liu Gongzi's name, who doesn't know him on both sides of the Qinhuai River!" ”

"Please go upstairs, choose whatever you want, our Golden Jade Pavilion will definitely guarantee to satisfy you!"

"It's like a human saying."

This Liu Gongzi seemed to be quite satisfied with the attitude of the steward, so he stopped pestering, didn't even look at Zhu Cihong, and swaggered up to the second floor surrounded by several family members, obviously not taking the small role in front of him in his eyes.
