Tang Ming has been very depressed for the past two days, Chen Jialan didn't even give him a chance to explain since he was scared by Xiaobai, and locked himself in his room all day long, not seeing anyone. Even Qiu went to persuade him, but he was turned away.

Tang Tianhao saw that his younger brother had been depressed for two days, so he always dragged him to Suzhou City to visit him, but Tang Ming, who was not here, was still the same. Emotions are always infectious, starting from Chen Jialan to Tang Ming, and finally to Tang Tianhao and others, the mood has become very low.

Seeing that the family was depressed for a little thing, Tang Ming also realized that he couldn't go on like this, and was about to adjust his mentality, pull Tang Tianhao to get drunk once, and spit out the bitterness in his heart by the way. Who knew that Zhu Di suddenly issued a holy decree and ordered Tang Ming to rush to Nanjing to face the saint.

Politely sending away the father-in-law who came to deliver the message, Tang Ming rarely put on a military uniform, called Lingyi and Xiaobai to set off immediately. Chen Jialan, who hadn't seen him for two days, suddenly found him.

Chen Jialan, who looked much haggard, didn't care about Tang Ming's surprised expression, and said: "This time I went to Nanjing to meet the emperor, I want to ask you to say a few kind words for your father in front of the emperor." If the father can survive this catastrophe, the little woman is willing to make a promise. ”

Tang Ming smiled bitterly and shook his head, he didn't agree with Chen Jialan's words, although he was not a decent gentleman, but a real villain could still afford it. As a man with a normal orientation, he can have no resistance to beautiful women, but that is also in the case of mutual affection.

As for the thought of repaying the favor and succumbing to others, Tang Ming didn't want such a love, and looked at Chen Jialan's haggard face with a smile. Tang Minghao said affectionately: "I will take Lord Fang's affairs to heart, and if I have the opportunity, I will naturally help to say a few kind words in front of the emperor." As for the relationship between us, please don't get mixed with it, if I want to marry you as a wife, it is also for you to marry me willingly, not to repay the favor. ”

After Tang Ming finished speaking, he urged him to go on the road, he didn't look back at Chen Jialan, the twisted melon was not sweet, he Tang Ming had not fallen to the point of using favor to blackmail someone to marry him.

Chen Jialan looked at the back that was gradually moving away, her eyes were full of brilliance, and the impact of Tang Ming's words on her heart shocked her. The avant-garde ideas that transcend thousands of years and the inherent ancient feudal ideas are constantly fighting in her mind. Two crystal tears suddenly slipped down his eyes, but a smile appeared on his face.

"Isn't this the lover of your dreams?" Chen Jialan muttered to herself, at this moment her entire heart was occupied by Tang Ming's figure.

Nanjing seems to have returned to its usual lively scene, as soon as Tang Ming entered the city gate, he was startled by the crowd in front of him, and all kinds of shouting and selling were constantly on the crowded streets. The doors of the shops on both sides of the street are wide open, and the variety of goods is dazzling.

Compared to the depression of the previous two days, it is simply a day and a ground. Later history said that Nanjing in the early Ming Dynasty was the most developed area of industry and commerce, Tang Ming still had some disbelief, now it seems that this is not exaggerated, if the scene in front of him is not without those modern high-rise buildings, he really has a feeling of returning to the past.

As soon as the ban on Nanjing City was lifted, it was able to resume its usual liveliness, which was inseparable from Yao Guangxiao's proposal to Zhu Di, Yao Guangxiao in order not to hurt Nanjing's economy. It was proposed not to harm the civilians, and the army was only stationed outside the city, and only the Jinyi guards were allowed to enter the city to clean up those officials who had problems.

After this cleanup, the officials in Nanjing City were gone, leaving only those who defected to Zhu Di early, and the rest were arrested and imprisoned in the imperial city to wait for Zhu Di's fate. Among them, there are even some officials who are hated by the people, so that when the people ensure that their lives are worry-free, they are also happy that those officials who often oppress the people have lost their black hats.

In order to praise the wise Emperor Zhu Di, the people of Nanjing City deliberately celebrated on the day when the ban was lifted, so Tang Ming saw this scene in front of his eyes.

Zhu Di seems to be in a good mood today, sitting on the dragon chair in the court, with an expression like a spring breeze on his face. Even a few courtiers in the court who were arguing with red faces, he didn't care. Maybe it should be said that this is the situation that he, the emperor, likes to see, and when he doesn't see Yao Guangxiao, he also closes his eyes slightly, looking like a monk in peace.

As the emperor's grasp of power, Zhu Di can be said to have reached the realm of perfection, there are brocade guards staring at him in secret, various ministers supervising each other in the open, and the military power is clenched in his hands, and the world has completed the unification in front of him, and now is the time for the spring breeze to be proud.

Today's court discussion is just a formality, so Zhu Di didn't care about the ministers who managed taxes below, and they were arguing endlessly. gave Li Xing, who was standing next to him, a look, and Li Xing came out of the queue with a sharp voice: "Retreat to the ......"

The ministers knelt down and shouted three times and then withdrew on their own. Zhu Di glanced at Yao Guangxiao and said in a deep voice: "What do you think about the expansion of Longjiang Shipyard?" ”

Yao Guangxiao opened his slightly closed eyes and said: "The project of building a treasure ship can be described as huge, from wood to craftsmen, it is difficult to find its materials, and now the country has just stabilized, but foreign enemies are eyeing it, and they all want to bite my Daming's body." Shipbuilding to go to sea and make friends with neighboring countries can't wait, and Longjiang Shipyard is the most suitable place to make treasure ships in terms of geographical location and heritage. ”

At this point, Yao Guangxiao paused, looked up at Zhu Di, and saw that he was listening carefully, so he continued: "It's a pity that the cost of shipbuilding is not small, and now Beiping is rushing to build the palace, and financial, material, and manpower are in short supply. It seems inappropriate to rush to expand the Longjiang shipyard now. ”

"Especially looking for wood suitable for treasure ships, it's too hard to find. Sanbao was anxious about this matter recently, and asked Tang Ming two days ago, and heard that there was a way to solve it, so he ordered him to come over and explain it face-to-face. When Yao Guangxiao said this, his expression was a little hesitant.

Zhu Di smiled when he heard this: "I heard that this kid was in Suzhou, and he actually went straight to the Jinyi Wei prison and used his power to suppress people to rescue his eldest brother's family. If he can't solve the matter of Longjiang Shipyard this time, I will punish him heavily. ”

Yao Guangxiao looked at Zhu Di's expression and knew that he didn't really care about this matter, what Tang Ming did in Suzhou, he had already sent someone to tell him. Ji Gang also secretly gave himself news, clearly saying that Tang Ming's eldest brother's family was innocent, so Yao Guangxiao was not worried at all at the moment, Zhu Di would use this matter to do something to Tang Ming.

When he was pondering, a guard outside came to report, saying that Tang Ming was already waiting outside the hall, Zhu Di waved his hand, and said loudly: "Pass!" ”
