The fifteenth day of the first month of the first year of Lingyuan. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Wu Shaogang's enthronement ceremony and the canonization ceremony of the crown prince Wu Ruikun were all carried out, the entire Kaifeng Mansion City, is still unusually lively, the streets and alleys are bustling, the construction of the outer city, in just a few years, has advanced by leaps and bounds, has made the city range of Kaifeng Mansion City expand several times, and the population of the entire Kaifeng Mansion City, has long exceeded one million people, its prosperity has long exceeded the original Southern Song Dynasty capital Lin'an Mansion City.

Wu Shao just entered the palace, but he was not particularly suitable for the environment in the palace.

Before the crossing, Wu Shaogang had visited the Forbidden City several times, at that time I thought, the Forbidden City is such a big place, the emperor wanders in it alone, and the time of the day is unforgettable, but after the crossing, Wu Shaogang really became the emperor, only to find that the palace is actually a shackle, and the emperor himself and even the emperor's concubines and children are locked in this cage.

It is no wonder that many emperors, after being unbearable, made a lot of travel.

Wu Shaogang knows very well that if he has been imprisoned in the palace all the time, completely detached from the outside world, does not know anything about the outside world, does not know the suffering of the people, it is difficult for such an emperor to really perform, and many matters in the world must all listen to the reports of the ministers below, and it is impossible to grasp the first-hand information.

Therefore, the first thing Wu Shaogang thought of when he entered the palace was to set rules for himself.

This so-called rule is that Wu Shaogang can't be in the palace all year round, and he needs to go outside for at least two months or so every year, and this kind of walk and see, on the one hand, is to go outside to breathe fresh air, and on the other hand, to understand the actual situation outside.

Two months is really nothing, after all, the traffic in this era is too backward, two months back and forth is not far away, less than sixty days, every day to ensure that you walk fifty miles, a total of three thousand miles, even if you reach the limit.

It is said that after the emperor ascends the throne, there should be a lot of things, and everything needs to be cared about, but Wu Shaogang, the emperor, does not seem to be so busy, and all he cares about is some matters related to rules.

Wu Shaogang was most concerned about the stability of the south.

The spring ploughing season is coming soon, and the south must be stabilized, at least in most places, the common people can farm with peace of mind, instead of falling into panic and fleeing, so he has always emphasized the matter of stabilizing the place in the holy decree to Cai Siwei and other generals who are still in the south.

Cai Siwei and others are not facing a lot of conquest and fighting, whether it is the Mongolian army or the Song army stationed in the south, the strength is not very strong, some places are even in a vacuum, but this is the place, which is the most difficult to stabilize, among the many officials, some are still the last Song court, some are loyal to the Yuan court, and even some want to establish themselves as kings.

After the end of the early dynasty, Li Siqi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Dou Mo, a university scholar, stayed.

Wu Shaogang looked at the two of them and spoke word by word.

"Li Aiqing, Dou Aiqing, I have left you behind, there are important matters that need to be handled by you."

"I have always been concerned about the stability of the south, judging from the twists and turns of this time, it will take a certain amount of time for the south to completely stabilize, and I also know that this matter cannot be too anxious, but I think that the Dayuan court will not give me so much time, they will definitely launch a large-scale attack in a short period of time, these days, I have thought about it carefully, whether the south can be completely stable or not, at least not to drag down the imperial court's conquest of the Mongolian army."

"I have decided, let you assist the prince to inspect the south, for a period of one year, you must assist the prince well, so that the entire south is basically stabilized, and there will be no huge turmoil, your responsibility this time is heavy, the prince is not very old, and he is not particularly familiar with government affairs, which requires your assistance and teaching."

Li Siqi and Dou Mo were stunned, just in the early days, the emperor didn't mention this matter at all.

Follow the prince to inspect, this is a great thing, ordinary people do not have such a good opportunity, this world will always be inherited by the prince in the future, and being able to get the favor of the prince will also sow opportunities for the future to gain a foothold in the court.

However, the south has not stabilized at all, and the Zhongshu Province and the Privy Council have received a lot of twists and turns, saying that there are many small turmoil in the south, and it is difficult for the people to really settle down.

Li Siqi looked at Dou Mo and took the lead in speaking.

"Your Majesty, the ministers think it is impossible, the south is not yet stable, how can His Royal Highness the Crown Prince take risks."

Dou Mo also spoke.

"Your Majesty, the minister agrees with Lord Li's opinion, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must not personally get involved in danger."

Wu Shaogang shook his head slightly.

"I have decided, the prince must go to the south this time to see, the prince's last trip, was three years ago, that trip, I was too big, I didn't have time to care, in fact, I also know, the prince in the process of traveling, did not learn much, now the prince's identity is different, if he is always in the deep palace, he doesn't know about the outside world, how to govern the world in the future."

"As for the matter of safety, compared to me, the prince's matter is nothing."

"This time to pacify the south, you will encounter a lot of tricky matters, how to make a decision, it is the time to show your ability, if the prince can adapt to and even control all this, I will really rest assured."

"That's why I said that your trip is a great responsibility, not only to stabilize the situation in the south, but also to teach the prince to know the hardships of Baixin, to know that it is not easy to stabilize the world, and to know that whatever you do in the future, you must consider the people of the world, otherwise what is the difference between this Ming Dynasty and the Great Song Dynasty."

When Wu Shao just said this, Cai Siwei and Dou Mo's expressions became solemn.

The emperor is the founding king, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also regarded as the emperor, who is dedicated to the stability of the country, and has worked hard, and does not know how many battles he has to go through to truly unify the world.

Cai Siwei and Dou Mo both knelt down at the same time.

"The minister's decree must live up to the emperor's trust."

Zhongshu Province, Council Hall.

Li Tingzhi looked at Cai Siwei and Dou Mo with an anxious look on his face, the decision made by the emperor surprised him greatly, but if you think about it carefully, this decision is undoubtedly wise, so that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is familiar with government affairs earlier and knows that this world is not easy to come by, so that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can govern the country well in the future.

However, the south is indeed not so stable, and if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince encounters any accidents in the process of inspecting the south, it will be an irreparable mistake.

Li Tingzhi can't be selfless, his mother is expensive by her son, the Li family is already the first family of the Ming Dynasty, Li Tingzhi's daughter Li Hanwei is the queen, and his son Li Run is the envoy of Shanxi Province, Li Chensun and Li Yousun are also officials in the Ministry of Officials and Rites respectively, and now his grandson Wu Ruikun has become His Royal Highness the Prince of the Ming Dynasty.

"Lord Li, Lord Dou, can the emperor talk about the safety of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

Cai Siwei and Dou Mo looked at Li Tingzhi and shook their heads slightly.

Li Tingzhi immediately instructed the officials around him to ask Yuan Shichun, the former deputy commander of the palace, to come to Zhongshu Province.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince went to the south to inspect, and it was impossible for the emperor to make a direct decision on the matter of his guards, which required Li Tingzhi, the left prime minister and privy envoy, to make a decision.

For the safety of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Li Tingzhi will definitely do his best.

Yuan Shichun soon came to Zhongshu Province.

Wende Hall.

Wu Shaogang looked at his son Wu Ruikun, although his eyes were a little stern, but he still revealed pity.

For the education of children, Wu Shaogang is very attentive, he knows very well what it means to do this, throughout history, no matter which dynasty, it is impossible to say that it is ten thousand years, the change of history will always happen, Wu Shaogang who has crossed it, never dares to guarantee what the situation will be like after a thousand years, but he knows one thing, that is, educating children well, can make the dynasty better continue.

Wu Shaogang is very satisfied with Wu Ruikun's education, not only Xu Heng, Dou Mo, Li Tingzhi and others often teach, but Wu Shaogang also often takes time to be with Wu Ruikun, asks about the study situation, and teaches Wu Ruikun to have a good character.

This time, letting Wu Ruikun go to the south to inspect was also a decision made by Wu Shaogang after careful consideration.

"Prince, I let you go to the south to inspect, not to let you go to the mountains and rivers, the south is different from the north, it was originally a rich place, although it has experienced war, but it is also rich and extravagant, I hope you will not indulge in luxury, but really care about the suffering of the people, see what kind of losses the conquest has caused to the south, think about how to make the people can live a stable life in the future, you have to remember, only when the people are truly peaceful, the Ming Dynasty can be truly stable...

Wu Ruikun listened very carefully, and when Wu Shaogang finished speaking, he stood up and saluted respectfully.

"Father's teaching, the child remembers, the child must live up to the expectations of the father."

Wu Shaogang looked at Wu Ruikun and sighed slightly.

"Prince, even if I can't stand you, although you are young, you were born in the emperor's family, so you have to face these matters."
