Beijing, Forbidden City.

Since the beginning of autumn, it has rained a few times, and the weather has become colder and colder, and the magnates in the capital have begun to light coal stoves, and black smoke billowed all day long, and the Forbidden City is no exception. It's just that the time is short, and there is no haze in the capital, according to the current burn, it is estimated that it will be a matter of decades, and the black smoke of the Forbidden City at this time has just dissipated.

Zhu Youzhu breathed in the air with some coal smell, and a comfortable expression appeared on his face, this smell has been smelling for a long time, and he still feels strange and good.

Since this comfortable day, Zhu Youzhang's body has also improved a lot, and he would never dare to go out for a walk in such a cold time before, but if he really does this, it is estimated that he will get cold in the next day. Thinking of his son who was far away in Liaodong, Zhu Youzhu had a smile on his face, this Liaodong should be colder, right? The rabbit cubs don't come back when they are released, and they play happily.

"Your Highness, several scholars from the Cabinet are here." He Neng walked to Zhu Youzhang's side and said softly.

The emperor is in a good mood, there is no mess in this harem, the queen's position is stable, and their lives as eunuchs and palace maids are much better. In addition, the life in the palace is better, and there are often rewards, so they are even happier.

"How many academics are here?" Zhu Youzhu was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Then let them all come in!" ”

It didn't take long for the three Cabinet Scholars to walk in from outside, and all of them had smiles on their faces, obviously something happy about it. The annual income of the imperial court has increased, and the courtiers do not have to worry about the lack of money at the end of each year as before, and the lives of several major bachelors in the country are also better, so they are also in a good mood.

"How many Aiqing are there any good things?" Zhu Youzhu looked at the three cabinet scholars, waved his hand to signal them to be exempt, and then asked with a smile. ”

"Returning to Your Majesty, it is good news for Liaodong." Liu Jian said with a smile: "I just arrived at the cabinet, this is also good news, and the ministers will send the song over." ”

Zhu Youzhu nodded, Liaodong's good news is not unusual, although his son likes to do things, he is young and ignorant, but he has always been a good hand in this war, this time he is in charge of Liaodong, naturally there is no problem. Stretched out his hand to take the fold presented by He Neng, Zhu Youzhu opened it and quickly looked at it, and it didn't take long to finish it.

"It's all different." Zhu Youzhu said with a smile: "I won a battle before, and I did my best to write it, for fear that the writing would not be good enough." ”

Listening to Zhu Youjiao's words, the three cabinet scholars also laughed, and Li Dongyang said: "The successive big victories of the imperial court in the past few years have made these border generals embarrassed, and now if they don't win, they will lose, and they are naturally embarrassed to show credit for themselves." But this time Liaodong is a big victory, after this battle, the three guards of Wuharian will be honest for a long time, and I don't have to worry about the northern frontier of the Ming Dynasty! ”

Li Dongyang's words made the atmosphere in the hall relax again, and the monarchs and ministers also laughed, this is a good thing!

Zhu Youzhu was thinking about his son's rebuilding of Daningwei, which the court didn't know about, his son didn't say it, and he didn't say it himself. The imperial court rebuilt Daningwei, which was a lot of expenses, although the imperial court has been prosperous in recent years, and wanted these ministers to agree to rebuild Daningwei, it is estimated that these courtiers will not do it.

In the words of his son, then do it first, what else can they do when they are done? Can Daning City still be demolished?

Thinking of his son's appearance as a scoundrel, Zhu Youzhu could only smile bitterly and shake his head, the prince of a country, actually playing a scoundrel, it is really helpless.

Zhu Youzhu looked at the three cabinet scholars, he was not going to say anything about this, and when the matter really came out, he pretended not to know, everything was his son's own opinion. It's enough to go back and punish him, he doesn't worry that the relationship between father and son will deteriorate, he is such a son, and he can't change it if he punishes the prince.

Besides, how could his son's exquisite heart not know his intentions? Zhu Youzhu simply didn't care.

"This year, the court has been a lot more relaxed, and the courtiers have been busy for a year, so after the winter, give more rewards, and the cabinet will come up with a charter." Zhu Youzhu said with a smile.

The reward at the end of the court is not a strange thing, basically the court has a balance, and the days are better, and this reward will be there, just like the year-end bonus issued in later generations. Units with good benefits will pay a little more, and the poor will pay a little less, and the same is true for Daming. Now that the court is having a better time, Zhu Youzhu will be said to be mean and unkind if he doesn't reward him.

It is not surprising that the three cabinet scholars also have their rewards here, and they are more than others, so it is natural to think about it.

No one dares to object to this, and neither can the cabinet scholars, if anyone in the future opposes the year-end bonus, everyone will scold him for having a hole in his head, but because of his opposition, everyone's year-end bonus is gone, what will everyone say about him? It is estimated that the scolding is light. The three cabinet scholars agreed without the slightest hesitation, all with smiles on their faces.

The capital is studying and issuing year-end bonuses, and Zhu Houzhao, who is in Liaodong, is arranging the final matters of Liaodong, after all, he is leaving Liaodong.

Zhu Houzhao didn't care about the matter of building a city in Daning, and the magistrate just handled this matter. Daning City is not built on vacant land, people originally had a city, although it has been returned to Duoyan Sanwei over the years, but Duoyan Sanwei will not demolish Daning City, but will build it well, so it is basically a renovation.

The expansion of Daning City will not be put on the agenda until after Daning's commerce and trade develop, and it may not be put on the agenda in the next two or three years.

As the days passed, the affairs of Liaodong were soon almost arranged, and Wang Shouren's good news also came.

Zhu Houzhao looked at the good news, a smile appeared on his face, after the last big victory, Wang Shouren did not pass slowly, but chose to march straight to Daning City, along the way it was a wild rush. When the army arrived in Daning City, there was still a commotion here, one side wanted to surrender, one side wanted to run, but they didn't run away, and they were all arrested by Wang Shouren.

Only a few leaders ran away with a part of the cavalry, and the rest were all captured, and the army had already entered Daning City, and Wang Shouren began to make a list of the people.

The cavalry is expanding to the north and west, although Daning City is the main city of the Wuharian Sanwei, similar to the capital, but after all, the people are stationed in the herd, the basic mountain from the south of the Xilamulun River and the Liao River, from the east to the Kaiyuan, and the west near the edge of the Great Wall of Xuanfu, all belong to the Wuliangha area. With such a large area, it is quite difficult for Daming to occupy it in a down-to-earth manner.

The main reason is that the population is insufficient, but Zhu Youzhu is not worried, in two or three years, the grassland will be full of Ming people.
