Fu Changzong and Zhang Bingwen talked for a while before leaving.

Zhang Yun and Zhang Shu at the table had already stopped chopsticks, but Xiao Yongning was still eating, even if he hiccuped, he stuffed it into his mouth.

Zhu Xu knocked her with chopsticks and said, "Don't embarrass me, you are also a princess." ”

When Xiao Yongning was sensible, he was already in the Chongzhen period, and he was strictly frugal in the palace, and he really didn't eat anything delicious except for some big banquets.

She didn't care, snorted, and continued eating.

Zhu Xu shook his head, turned his head to look at the two sisters Zhang Yun, and said, "Have you eaten well?" If you haven't eaten well, you can serve some more, you see, Yongning is not full. ”

Zhang Yun and the two sisters looked at each other and smiled, and said, "It's good to eat." ”

Zhu Xu glanced at the two of them, turned to Xiao Yongning again, and said, "Okay, save some face for me, wipe your face, and go back to the palace." ”

The little girl's mouth was stuffed with food, and she drank a few mouthfuls of soup, then she raised her head, and suddenly hiccups a few times in a row, and her little face was dazed.

"Let's go." Zhu Xu stood up and waved his hand to signal Cao Huachun to go to the checkout.

Cao Huachun went downstairs, the little girl wiped her face, looked at Zhu Xu bitterly, and said, "Uncle Huang, people want to rest for a while." ”

Zhu Xu had already guessed it, walked over, touched her head and said, "Wait a few more, in a few years, whatever you want to eat will be made in the palace, let's go, I will carry you." ”

"I knew that Uncle Huang was the best." The little girl was overjoyed and threw herself on his back.

The little girl is nine years old this year, not light or heavy, Zhu Xu carried her, looked at the two sisters of the Zhang family and said, "Let's go, let's take the carriage and send you back first." ”

Zhang Yun's two sisters looked a little surprised, Zhang Yun's pretty face was softer, and the two responded and followed Zhu Xu downstairs.

After walking downstairs for a while, Zhu Xu found that the little girl on his back was already in a daze and was about to fall asleep.

Zhang Yun followed Zhu Xu's side and said softly: "Your Majesty, why don't you send the princess to my show building, and then send her back to the palace when she wakes up." ”

Zhu Xu shook his head with a smile and said, "It's not far, it's easy for the carriage to come, I'll send you back first." ”

Zhang Shu took her sister's arm and looked at Zhu Xu quietly, her big eyes blinking.

It didn't take long for the carriage to come, Xiao Yongning was already half-asleep, and was put into the carriage by Zhu Xu, and fell asleep with two blinks of his eyes.

Zhu Xu sent the two sisters to the front of the house, looked at the gate of Zhang's mansion, and said, "I won't send you in, if I have time, I will take you out to play again." ”

Zhang Yun was afraid that what happened in the meditation room again today, so he hurriedly bit his lip and said, "Your Majesty, we ...... Not a goodbye. ”

Zhu Xu laughed and said, "It's not your turn to decide this, okay, go back, I have to send Yongning back." ”

Zhang Yunqiao's face was slightly red, and she wanted to say another word, but Zhu Xu's carriage had slowly started forward.

Zhang Shu watched the carriage leave, suddenly approached Zhang Yun, and said in an ambiguous voice: "Sister, I was in the meditation room before......"

"Shut up!" Zhang Yun immediately snorted, immediately glared at her, and warned: "Don't say it, you know?" ”

Zhang Shu turned around and walked towards the gate in a hurry, and said, "The rouge rewarded by the Queen Mother is really useful......

Zhang Yun hurriedly chased two steps and said, "I gave it to you, don't tell my mother......"

"Then it depends on my mood......" Zhang Shu jumped up and down, her voice was very happy.

Zhang Yun chased after her, keeping his voice low and saying something.

How the sisters of the Zhang family bargained Zhu Xu didn't care, after entering the palace, she put Xiao Yongning in the Qianqing Palace to rest, went out of the room, and came to the warm pavilion, Zhou Yingqiu had been waiting for a long time.

"See the emperor." Zhou Yingqiu raised his hand and saluted.

Zhu Xu waved his hand, looked at Cao Huachun and said, "When will Sun Chuanting arrive in Beijing?" ”

Cao Huachun said: "It is expected to arrive later today." ”

Zhu Xu sat on the soft collapse and said, "Come on, move a chair for Lord Zhou." In the future, the six or more books will be routinely given, and I will not be allowed to say more. ”

Cao Huachun was slightly stunned, and then said, "Obey." ”

Zhou Yingqiu's face showed excitement, raised his hand and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

Zhu Xu took the teacup sent by the waiter in his hand, and said while thinking: "Well, after Sun Chuanting arrives in Beijing, you can talk before leaving." Liaodong seems to be stable now, and the problem is also very complicated, so you have to be prepared. ”

Zhou Yingqiu sat not far from Zhu Xu, bowed, and said, "Yes." The minister has a few ideas, and he has come to present them to the emperor. ”

"Say." Zhu Xu took a sip of tea and looked at Zhou Yingqiu.

Zhou Yingqiu paused, and said, "First, Liaodong is vast and sparsely populated, and the land reclaimed is less than one percent, and the minister thinks that what Liaodong needs at present is to increase the population and make every effort to reclaim, whether it is to accept the victims of the six provinces of Shaanxi and Gansu, or to increase the taxes of the imperial court, especially to resist the re-invasion of foreign races, it is very important......"

Zhu Xu's eyes moved slightly and nodded slightly. There is some truth in Zhou Yingqiu's words, especially in the last sentence, although the 'alien' he said may refer to Jiannu or Mongolians, but in the end, it will be Russians, which can be regarded as crooked.

Zhou Yingqiu saw Zhu Xu nodding, and said: "Second, Lord Sun conceived the method of 'ring the city' in Liaodong, and the minister thought it was quite insightful. All over the city as the center, around the gradual establishment of small cities, interlocking, relying on each other, not only to concentrate energy development, but also to take precautions against the invasion of foreign races, the minister deeply agrees, will continue to vigorously promote, and will further derive, in the foreign race is vulnerable, as far as possible to expand the territory of my Ming Dynasty, continue to weaken the foreign race, enhance my Ming ......"

Zhu Xu smiled quietly, the entire Ming Dynasty knew that he was 'good at martial arts', and he was very keen on expanding his territory, and Zhou Yingqiu was obviously deliberately patting him.

Zhou Yingqiu saw Zhu Xu smiling, his expression was unwavering, and said: "Third, Liaodong has accepted nearly six million immigrants in recent years, spending tens of millions of silver every year, and now it has reached the extreme, and it is unable to continue to accept the victims, and the next two or three years will be a buffer period, and the minister intends to expand commerce and trade in Liaodong, especially maritime trade, in order to increase the revenue of the Prime Minister's Office and reduce the pressure on the treasury......"

Zhu Xu listened quietly, Liaodong is going to enter a period of digestion, and the next two or three years should be relatively stable, the blood transfusion of the treasury to Liaodong will gradually decrease, and it will be properly controlled, and the money and grain for immigrants in Liaodong in the future will not even need to be paid by the treasury, and Liaodong itself can bear it. The place where it will be spent in the next two or three years will be Annan, Dolgon is killing in Annam, and North Annan has been cleaned up almost completely, and next year it will be possible to migrate on a large scale. North Annan is different from Liaodong, the land is fertile, mature, and there is no need to dig pits, which will be very trouble-free and cost-effective, but it will not be a small amount.

Zhou Yingqiu took a sip of tea and continued: "Fourth, the minister intends to divide Liaodong in more detail, and expand the three prefectures and sixteen counties with Vladivostok as the center in the northernmost section, and Shen. Yang as the center, expand six provinces and twenty-seven counties, and end with brocade. With the prefecture as the center, expand the two prefectures and nine counties, and strengthen the control of various localities with strict regional division, so as to vigorously promote various government affairs ...... eastern Liaoning"

Zhu Xu habitually picked up the teacup and thought silently.

Zhou Yingqiu obviously worked hard, although there were some grand intentions between his words, but there was no reckless move, and they were all further developed on the basis of Sun Chuanting's policies.

Zhou Yingqiu's ability in the ministry Zhu Xu saw it, Zhu Xu didn't know the bottom in the local area, let him go to Liaodong this time, firstly, to avoid the complicated situation in the capital, so that the cabinet centralization would be smoother, and secondly, in Liaodong, I hoped that he could 'Xiao Gui Cao Sui', stabilize Liaodong through the digestion period, be safe and stable, and successfully enter the cabinet after three years.

However, Zhou Yingqiu obviously won't sit back and do nothing, and he still has some ambitions.

Zhu Xu is quite pleased, the people below can act pragmatically better than reporting trouble every day. Liaodong is not so worried, on the contrary, it is Shaanxi and Gansu and other six provinces, Zhu Xu has always been unable to remember.

Fu Changzong is calm, careful every step of the way, never overstepping, in the face of the complex situation of the six provinces, can he afford it?

Zhou Yingqiu didn't know what Zhu Xu was thinking, and continued his words, just now it was all a big frame, and now he began to say some details.

Zhu Xu listened with a teacup, but he was a little impressed by Zhou Yingqiu, whether it was his own plan or that of his staff, it showed that Zhou Yingqiu was interested.

After a long time, Zhu Xu nodded and said, "Well, yes, after I go back, write a detailed script, and I will take a look." Also, Sun Chuanting is the predecessor after all, and his grade is half a level higher than yours, don't be on the shelf, just greet him when you should go, and don't deliberately treat his government affairs in Liaodong in order to prove anything, they are all ministers of the imperial court, and the open-mindedness they should have should be shown to the outside world, small belly chicken intestines, don't have a ...... in the deduction and search"

Zhou Yingqiu looked at Zhu Xu, his eyes suddenly flashed slightly, and then he bowed and said, "Yes." ”

Zhu Xu looked at his expression, his brows trembled slightly, he picked up the teacup, and said lightly: "What do you understand?" ”

Zhou Yingqiu bowed there and said, "The emperor intends to reconcile, and the ministers will do it properly, and it will definitely not damage the emperor's prestige." ”

"Reconciliation?" Zhu Xu paused for a moment, and then came to his senses. Since he pardoned the Donglin Party, there has been some gossip and speculation, but I didn't expect Zhou Yingqiu to think like this, but I am afraid that Fu Changzong and others will also think like this.

He put down the teacup, his fingers habitually tapping on the table, Or, and said in a deep voice: "Hear clearly, go back and tell some people that I never thought of the so-called reconciliation!" Any incomplete reform is the result of compromise and concession, and I will never back down half a point! The pardon of the Donglin Party is to 'decide'! I just don't want some people to always want to overturn their cases, and they will jump out every now and then to annoy people, and also remove some obstacles for the 'New Deal'. As for the rest, I have no intention of making any concessions! This is something that you, and those out there, have to keep in mind! ”

Zhou Yingqiu's face was slightly shocked, he has always been good at figuring out Zhu Xu's thoughts, could it be that he was wrong this time? He looked up at Zhu Xu with some apprehension in his heart, his eyes were very uneasy. His past is not good, the reason why he has been in a high position is because the emperor's heart is in him, if he loses the emperor's heart, he will not be far from returning to his hometown, what else to talk about entering the cabinet!

Zhu Xu looked at his expression and said with a slightly cold face, "You didn't do much, did you?" ”

Zhou Yingqiu hurriedly got up, raised his hand and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry, no." ”

Zhou Yingqiu lowered his head, his face tightened. Although the emperor may not say much about this matter, Zhou Yingqiu is worried that this is the beginning. Now that the 'New Deal' is becoming more and more popular, public opinion between the government and the opposition, and the scholars is split, and the emperor has no shortage of supporters!
