Zhu Youxiao smiled slightly and said, "Yang Aiqing, why do you have different ways of dealing with problems in Shaanxi and Hebei?" Hebei has almost copied Shanxi's model, while Shaanxi has only scratched the surface. ”

"This ...... There were many vassal kings in Shaanxi, so that the new policies in Shanxi could not be implemented immediately. Yang Lian thought for a while and said.

"Hebei is mostly my manor, is it easier to move?" Zhu Youxiao asked with a smile.

"Your Majesty is a promising Ming monarch, naturally different from the vassal kings of various places." Yang Lian also said with a smile.

"The empire doesn't need the eunuch party now, the Zhejiang party, and the Donglin party, if it does, then it only needs the imperial party, what I need is the empire's heart, only in this way can I get through the most difficult moment of the empire, do you understand?" Zhu Youxiao said solemnly.

"I understand." Yang Lian said.

"Yang Aiqing, I have high hopes for you to serve as the Imperial History of the Left Capital of the Inspectorate, and I hope that the Inspectorate can truly return me to an empire that governs the Qingming Dynasty." Zhu Youxiao said.

"The minister will never disappoint His Majesty's expectations." Yang Lian said.

"I fully believe in you, I am afraid that the following Yushitai and the local government will collude with each other, so that the Yushitai will lose its original role." Zhu Youxiao said.

"The Council has established a complete system within the Inspectorate to ensure that everyone can act according to the law." Yang Lian assured.

"It's going to be a long road and it's going to be hard to walk." Zhu Youxiao said with a sigh.

"The minister knows that even if the road ahead is full of thorns, the minister will definitely overcome the thorns and die for the emperor's officials." Yang Lian said.

"Remember that you must not be soft-hearted in Shandong, otherwise the new policy will not be able to move forward. If you need my support, you can come to me at any time, even if you send a large army into Shandong, I will also handle the affairs of Shandong. Zhu Youxiao finally admonished.

"Commandment." Yang Lian replied respectfully.

……

And just a few days after the earthquake, Concubine Ding was born and gave birth to a son for Zhu Youxiao, who was later named Zhu Cixi, and Zhu Youxiao's son had never appeared in the original history. Zhu Ciyi's birth made Zhu Youxiao feel that he had really changed history.

The prosperity of the royal family is something that the empire likes to see. During this period of time, Zhu Youxiao took care of his wife and children in the harem, in this era, the infant mortality rate was extremely high, even in the royal family, Zhu Youxiao had to work hard to do this.

And Zhu Youxiao successively used troops in the southwest, which made Donghu's Anahualong frightened, and after the begging army pacified Meng Mi and Meng Yang, he decided to send an envoy to the Ming Dynasty to pay tribute, and now Donghu's forces are not as good as before, and they are simply unable to wage a full-scale war with the Ming Dynasty.

After the two wars, the Ming Dynasty re-intimidated the entire Indochina Peninsula, and the Paya Langzhang of the Lao Propaganda Division also decided to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty again. The Lao Xuanwei Division is the most diligent tributary among the six consolations, and the most closely related to the Ming Dynasty. At the time of Jiajing, Laos was also annexed by Donghu, and at the end of Wanli, Donghu declined, and Laos came to pay tribute again, and it was not until 1612 that it completely broke off contact with the Ming Dynasty.

The Lao Propaganda Division is too far away from Beijing, and the previous tributes of the Lao Propaganda Division were only completed when they arrived in Yunnan. This time, it happened that Meng Yang and Meng Mi's Tusi were going to Jingshi, and Paya Lanzhang also asked to go to Jingshi with him to pay tribute. Wei Dazhong also agreed to this request. Zhu Youxiao successively used troops in the southwest to recover the six comforts, and now the Lao Propaganda Department took the initiative to request that it be attached to prevent the Ming Dynasty from using troops against the Lao Propaganda Department again, and also reduced the burden on Yunnan.

On July 1, Changzhou Suzhou and other prefectures suffered from wind and floods, "the strong wind from the northeast of the Jingjiang River, roaring angrily, the roof tiles flying horizontally, the wooden servants of the arch stand upside down, the river water rises sharply, the city wall is submerged in the huge flood of the waves, and the floating corpses belong to each other." The flood receded on the eighth day. There were thousands of people crying and complaining, ten and nine people were overwhelmed, and there were many deaths and injuries among the old children. The grass is eroded, and the people are difficult, so they peel off the elm bark and eat, the elm bark is all the wild vegetables, and the wild vegetables are all the wheat leaves. There are beggars in all directions, there are those who go to the ravines to die, there are those who die by themselves, and there are those who cut wood and lift the pole, but the officials are indifferent. ”

Within three months, the Ming Dynasty suffered three catastrophes, countless casualties, and incalculable economic losses, and news of rebellion by displaced people began to appear. On the contrary, although the impact of the explosion in Kyoto was the greatest, the damage was the lightest.

"Wu Aiqing, I'm afraid I'm going to trouble you again this time." Zhu Youxiao said. Zhu Youxiao knew that Wu Youxing had just returned to Beijing.

"This matter is the minister's duty, and the minister will leave for the disaster area tomorrow." Wu Youxing said.

"Jingshi is too far away from the disaster area, and the situation this time is more serious than the last time, I am afraid that Aiqing has not yet arrived in the disaster area, and the plague has broken out." Zhu Youxiao said worriedly.

"After hearing the news, the minister has already sent someone to send the disaster relief and epidemic prevention manual to the disaster area overnight." Wu Youxing replied.

"That's very good." Zhu Youxiao was a little relieved.

Zhu Youxiao knew about Wu Youxing's disaster relief and epidemic prevention manual, and many of the contents in the manual were put forward by Zhu Youxiao. Colonel Zhu You had experienced major floods and SARS in his previous life, and he still had some understanding of disaster relief and epidemic prevention. Moreover, this knowledge has been fully exerted in the hands of professionals like Wu Youxing.

At this time, Zhu Youxiao realized that in order to support Wu Youxing in establishing "Plague Science", he had to use tools. Since the Dutch sent Zhu Youxiao the glass manufacturing process, Wang Zheng really lived up to Zhu Youxiao's expectations, not only established a large-scale glass workshop, but also successfully copied the hosiery machine. Zhu Youxiao decided to go to the workshop to meet Wang Zheng.

"Your Majesty, this is the hosiery machine." Wang Zheng first took Zhu Youxiao to visit the hosiery machine, and Wang Zheng is an expert in this era for machinery manufacturing.

"If I want to mass-produce this hosiery machine, is that okay?" Zhu Youxiao asked. In fact, Zhu Youxiao has found a problem since the introduction of the socks machine, the socks machine he introduced seems to be a chicken rib, which feels unusable in practical applications, the silk is not elastic, and at this time it is impossible to produce chemical fibers, and everything has become boring.

"Yes. The craftsmen here have basically mastered it. Wang Zheng said.

"Take me to see glass production." Zhu Youxiao is most concerned about glass production. Compared with the hosiery machine, glass production is related to the scientific development of the future empire and Zhu Youxiao's money-making plan.

"No."

When Zhu Youxiao entered the glass workshop, he found that the glass workshop had produced a large number of products, including practical products and handicrafts made of glass.
