Once the general plan has been formulated, the rest is all about the details.

We certainly can't send troops this year, but we don't have to wait three years, because we can attack from the sea. Either next year or the year after, we will definitely raise a teacher to discuss.

Prior to this, Huang Mi had to send people from Yunnan to familiarize himself with the terrain and climate of northern Burma, and inquire about the news of the Turkish chieftains in Burma, and it would be best if he could provoke internal contradictions. In terms of the sea, let the Guangdong merchants take ships to engage in trade, and Datong carefully mixed in the caravan to land and explore.

The king of Donghu sent people to Kunming to ask for canonization. That would let the local officials drag it out, solicit bribes on orders, and stir up the matter of the canonization, but at the same time, it will not cause the Donghu country to be vigilant.

When all the preliminary preparations are completed, the north and south will be caught off guard.

At the same time, one of Fei Yinghui's divisions was transferred to Chengdu to be stationed, and the families of the soldiers also migrated there. In the future, this division will be a local unit in Sichuan, mainly to guard against the direction of Tibet, and it may enter Tibet to fight in the future.

Fei Yinghui was old and recalled to Nanjing to take up his post, and the division commander chose another person to serve as the commander.

After returning to Beijing, Fei Yinghui moved to the governor's mansion and served as the governor of the left capital of the right army (Zhengyipin), and then promoted to the title of Qinghou. It doesn't matter if you deprive yourself of the right to command, or if you go back to Beijing to enjoy your wealth, you don't have to lead troops in the future anyway.

Jiang Dashan took a division and returned to Nanjing to defend the capital.

Jiang Liang took a division to Hangzhou to sit in the south of the Yangtze River.

Liu Zhu took a division to Xuzhou to respond to the north and south.

In this way, four divisions will move south, garrisons will no longer be gathered on the northern border, and the pressure on logistics and transportation will be greatly reduced.

At present, there are 3,000 guards in the imperial city, 7,000 regular troops in Nanjing, and now another division has been transferred back, and the entire army in Nanjing is 20,000. In addition, there are police forces and Jinling Prefecture inspectors, which add up to more than 10,000 people.

It's definitely not enough, it doesn't matter when Zhao Han is there, after two or three generations of emperors, more troops must defend the center.

There is no hurry for the time being, and when the grassland is completely calmed, two more divisions will be transferred back.

Zhao Han called Zhu Youdong, the commander of the Praetorian Guard: "This year, we will send a fleet to envoy to Western countries, and there may be wars along the way." In addition to the non-commissioned officers of the navy, I intend to have a thousand forbidden troops follow me to the sea. Among them, three hundred ironclad guards must be selected, so as to show the prestige of our Celestial Empire. You pass the word down and let the Forbidden Army sign up on its own. Along the way, you may have to suffer from wind and waves, and there is a risk of dying in the belly of the fish. Those who are willing to go to sea will have an opening fee, and the salary will be paid three times. In case of distress, I will treat his wife and children well. ”

"Yes!"

Zhu Youdong was ordered to leave.

The emperor's ironclad guards, which had previously numbered only three hundred, were later increased to five hundred. They are all strong and strong, with all their bodies in plate armor, and they carry hammers to fight.

These are not the goods of the Taiping Dynasty, they are all selected from the elites of various armies, killed in the sea of corpses and blood. Three hundred ironclad guards, seven hundred imperial city forbidden troops, and some naval non-commissioned officers, you can capture harbor cities along the way, and even destroy small countries if you play ridiculously.

When Zheng He went to the West, there was no shortage of battles on the way!

In the blink of an eye, in the sixth month of the lunar calendar, the heat in Nanjing is unbearable.

This summer was particularly hot, and the emperor couldn't bear it, and after reviewing the recital every day, it was like taking a shower in clothes. Even if there was a palace maid who fanned the whole process, he was still soaked, and Emperor Zhao finally decided to go into the mountains to escape the heat.

The summer resort on the Purple Mountain has been almost repaired, which is the only "big construction" of Zhao Han except for the Forbidden City.

The civil servants were too lazy to care, and they didn't even give advice.

Because Zhao Han did not use the state treasury, nor did he levy forced labor. Since all of it is paid by the emperor, civil officials will chew their tongues when they are full.

The summer resort wasn't grandiose, and it didn't even use giant logs, because it was a waste of money and manpower. Most of the timber is cut on the spot, and the houses are built relatively low, which means that they occupy a large area, otherwise they are similar to the manor of the rich manor.

The harem concubines, princes and princesses, all went to the summer together, and the princes and princesses were already on summer vacation.

It is more troublesome to deal with official documents, and it has to be served back and forth inside and outside the city.

"It's still comfortable in the mountains, and the temperature is several degrees lower than in the city." Zhao Han lay under a big tree to enjoy the coolness.

As for the temperature, there have been thermometers for a long time.

At the Kinten-in Planetarium, the temperature is recorded every day of the month, so you can observe the climate change every year.

Fei Rulan brought the palace maid over, wearing a faintly transparent gauze dress, because there was underwear blocking it, only two arms were half exposed. This is the summer clothing of ancient noblewomen, the poor cannot afford to wear it, and the cloth as thin as a cicada's wings is too expensive.

"Husband, chilled sour plum soup." Fei Rulan said with a smile.

Zhao Han took a sip and drank it, suddenly felt comfortable, and immediately praised: "The lady is a good craft!" ”

"(Plate) The seventh sister made it herself, and made a big bucket." Ferrandau.

Zhao Han thought for a while: "Give some ice cubes to the court officials below the fourth grade, and there is not so much need in the palace." ”

In Nanjing, it will also snow and freeze in winter, but all officials who have the conditions will store some ice cubes and wait for them to be taken out and used in the following summer. Low-level officials may not have stored ice, so Zhao Han gave it to court officials below the fourth rank.

The officials of the Datong Imperial Court have subsidies in severe winter and heat, and they will be subsidized for two or three months every year.

Of course, it is limited to the quality officials, and the officials can't get anything.

Fei Rulan sat down and accompanied Zhao Han to drink sour plum soup. chatted for a while, and suddenly said: "(Lu) Tianxiang is going to ride a horse, and the rest of the younger sisters are also clamoring to go, let me come to my husband to explore the wind." ”

"On such a hot day, running down the hill to ride a horse? They're not afraid of heat stroke. Zhao Han couldn't help complaining.

Fei Rulan: "It's hard to come out, of course I want to do more activities." ”

Zhao Han said: "Let the guards protect you, and go to whatever you want." ”

The horse farm is not far down the mountain, and it is very convenient to go back and forth.

As soon as Zhao Han's golden mouth opened, even Fei Rulan ran away and took her children to the racecourse to have fun. And it is directly in the horse farm, riding horses in the morning and evening, and hiding in the house to play mahjong when the sun is too hot.

There are many houses in the horse farm where people can stay.

When the horse farm is opened to the public, the wealthy people in the city come to have fun. The teenagers like to practice riding and even resume polo, and their consumption can bring a lot of income to the horse farm every year anyway.

After Zhao Han finished approving the recital, he went back to the house to rest for a while, feeling quite deserted around, and he asked the female officer in charge of living: "Have the ladies all gone to the racecourse?" ”

The female officer replied: "Only the concubine did not go." ”

"Let's go to the concubine's room." Zhao Han said.

Duan Concubine is the Brunei princess Aisha, who was ostracized intentionally or unintentionally in the harem because of her Arab ancestry. Usually the concubines do group activities, but they deliberately don't bring her, and they don't even bother to do superficial work.

"Your Majesty!"

Aisha stood up happily to greet her, since she was pregnant, even the emperor rarely came.

On the bamboo mat, a baby was crawling, it was Aisha's daughter.

"Will you climb?" Zhao Han was quite surprised.

Aisha: "Last month." ”

Zhao Han is definitely not a good father, he doesn't care about raising children, and he can't even remember how many children he has. Eleven, or twelve? Or thirteen? It's annoying enough to deal with government affairs all day, and I really don't have the energy to take care of it.

"Did you get a name?" Zhao Han sat on the edge of the bed and picked up his daughter, making the child cry in fright.

Aisha: "It's up, it's called Zhao Huarong." ”

Except for the slightly sunken eye sockets, the child has no exotic features. After all, the Brunei royal family has been mixed with the Han people for several generations.

But the appearance is very cute, and the crying is so cute.

Zhao Han put his daughter around his neck, stood up and walked around a few times, jumping a few times from time to time. The child quickly stopped crying, too frightened to speak, and when he became familiar with the height, he actually giggled.

Aisha stood next to her, watching the father and daughter play, and smiled as well.

A foreign princess, who is also rejected by other concubines, does not have many times to smile happily.

In Brunei, it is not calm right now.

The Sultan was addicted to pleasures, and all government affairs were left to his ministers. If history remains unchanged and as soon as the old sultan dies, a coup d'état will break out in Brunei. Aisha's brother will be killed by the ministers, and Brunei will be split in two. It took three years of civil war before the retainer was overthrown and Aisha's other brother regained the throne.

In this time and space, since Brunei has entered the princess, China will definitely send troops to help, and Luzon will send a thousand soldiers to get it.

"Call Daddy!" Zhao Han put his daughter down and teased with a smile.

The little girl looked at him curiously.

Zhao Han again: "Call Dad." ”

"Ahhhhh The youngest daughter finally spoke, but it was babbling.

After playing for a while, the palace maid came to report that the bath water was boiled.

handed over their daughter to the nurse, and Zhao Han and Aisha went to take a bath respectively. When he came back after washing, he saw Aisha wearing a gauze garment, with nothing in it, and her delicate body was lying on the bed.

"Your Majesty......" Aisha shouted coquettishly, she had to seize the opportunity to curry favor with the emperor and let the emperor come to her room more often.

Zhao Han was amused, walked over with a smile, and gossiped around her.

After the beginning of summer this year, there were no major floods in the provinces. In addition, the wind and rain were smooth in the first half of the year, and Zhao Han was completely relieved, at least for this year, he didn't have to worry about it, and he could relax a little and play more.

In the early morning of the next day, Aisha served Zhao Han to get dressed, and reluctantly sent the emperor out.

Zhao Han walked around the villa for a while and found that it was a cloudy day today. He came to the makeshift office and asked, "Is there any rush?" ”

"Nope." Li Xiangjun replied.

Zhao Han said happily: "Then I won't be working today, take advantage of the cloudy day, and go to the horse farm to play." By the way, bring all the official documents, and you still have to review them in your spare time. ”

The emperor was lazy, and no one dared to stop him.

In fact, the female officials and palace maids were also happy, brought all kinds of things, and went down the mountain happily, heading towards the horse farm.

The guards were also happy, there was a garrison in the horse farm, and it was closed, and no idle people were allowed to enter, and these guards could follow and be lazy.

Eventually, the emperor would also organize a ball game for the guards to play polo to watch the excitement.
