"yes!"

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed slightly, "The fourth bastard boy, I'm afraid that the overseas feudal states he worked so hard to conquer will be taken over by the emperors of later generations!" ”

Zhu Biao sneered directly, his face full of disapproval, "Dad, those overseas vassal countries are barbaric and barren, and no officials are willing to go to be officials, where does the fourth brother come from?" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang said lightly: "Then why is it that now, the entire Ming Dynasty is rumoring that the army of Yan Wangfu has suffered heavy losses in the Wa Kingdom?" ”

"This?"

Zhu Biao was shocked, "Why are they here?" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't pay attention to it, but continued to ask: "Biao'er, what do you think?" ”

"Dad, the fourth child can conquer overseas feudal states, and he can also hand over so much silver, the child can't object."

Zhu Biao nodded slightly, "It's just that Dad, if you want to make this holy decree, it will be to open the sea!" ”

"Then open the sea!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said lightly, "Our ban on the sea is to prevent internal thieves from colluding with those widows and causing chaos to my Ming Dynasty."

Now, the fourth child can invade the Wa Kingdom, and he can still earn silver for my Ming Dynasty, so why is the sea forbidden?

It just so happens that the third child is not greedy for the fourth child? Let them also take their respective guards and go to sea to conquer those vassal kingdoms!

However, if they want to conquer those feudal states, they can't delay the protection of the Northern Yuan thieves!

The number of generals who go out to fight the vassal country must not exceed 20,000! ”

"Father is wise!"

Zhu Biao hurriedly flattered.

After thinking about it, Zhu Yuanzhang said again: "However, there are still so many thieves on the sea now, and those businessmen can't go to sea to trade for the time being!" ”

"Yes, Dad!"

“……”

The Ming Emperor and the Ming Prince have reached an agreement.

The matter of allowing the Prince of Daming to lead his troops to the sea to attack the vassal state was also quickly passed.

As soon as the holy decree was issued, the entire princes and gentry of the Ming Dynasty were full of excitement.

As for not allowing merchants to go to sea for trade, although the merchants and gentry complained a few words, they didn't care much.

Anyway, the forbidden sea has already opened a gap.

Even during the reign of His Majesty, the ban on the sea will not be completely lifted.

But how many more years will this majesty be in power?

Wait until His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ascends the throne......

Just when everyone was looking at the prince with longing in their hearts, the prince suddenly fell ill in the prince's east palace.

Zhu Yuanzhang took the two tigers and rushed into the East Palace in a hurry.

The crown prince Zhu Biao was lying on the bed with a pale face, weak and weak, and cold sweat was still breaking out on his head.

"Biao'er was fine a few days ago, why did she suddenly fall ill?"

A group of imperial doctors and ministers of the East Palace knelt in front of Zhu Yuanzhang with panicked faces.

"Back to Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should occasionally feel the wind and cold, and his pulse is weak......"

Zhu Yuanzhang listened carefully to the imperial doctor's long speech, and then said: "As Er and others said, is Biao'er's illness serious?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, according to the diagnosis of Weichen and others, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did occasionally feel cold, coupled with long-term work, excessive mental exhaustion, physical loss, and no good rest, so he fell ill!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little relieved, "In this way, you are not allowed to show the prince in the next few days, you must let the prince take care of it!" ”

"Wechen obeys!"

A group of East Palace ministers hurriedly responded.

Zhu Yuanzhang walked to Zhu Biao's side again and instructed: "Biao'er, you should recuperate in the past few days, don't worry about court affairs!" ”

Zhu Biao blamed himself, "The child let his father worry about it!" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang said slowly: "It's because we're in a hurry, we've been making you suffer, we shouldn't let you go so intensively to inspect all parts of the Ming Dynasty, and let you review so many pieces!" ”

"Dad, the child is the prince of Daming, these are the responsibilities of the child."

Zhu Biao smiled slightly and said, "Dad, you don't have to punish the second child anymore, the evil things that the second child did were all bewitched by thieves, and he has now realized his mistake."

Moreover, the second child is still the chief of the kings of my Ming Dynasty, and he is the sect order of my Ming Dynasty! ”

"Humph!"

Speaking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression changed, "Biao'er, you have a good rest." That evil obstacle has made such a big mistake, we must let him remember it for a long time.

Otherwise, when he returned to the Qin Palace, he would inevitably start to exploit the people again.

And other princes will do the same......"

Hearing this, Zhu Biao's expression was relieved.

……

The crown prince Zhu Biao was ill, and there was no matter of going to court for several days, and it soon spread to the Yanwang Mansion.

Hearing the news, Guo An subconsciously sighed.

"Alas, the time to come is still coming!"

"What's the matter, husband?"

On the side, a trace of doubt flashed in Liu Baiwei's eyes.

Guo An said: "Sister, after the New Year's Festival, we will go to the country of Wa!" ”

Liu Baiwei asked: "Husband, didn't you say that after the New Year's Festival, you can rest in Beiping Mansion for a month?" ”

Guo An was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "You can rest for half a month!" ”

Liu Baiwei nodded slightly and said, "Before that husband goes to the Wa Kingdom, take Yuelan into the room!" ”

"Huh?"

Guo An was taken aback.

"Husband, Yuelan grew up with her concubine since she was a child, if her husband doesn't accept it, she can only become an old girl, and then be released from the house!

The concubine is really reluctant to Yuelan, and Yuelan's appearance is not bad, why has the husband not touched Yuelan for so many years? ”

"This ......"

"It seems that the husband doesn't hate Yuelan, so let Yuelan serve the husband tonight!"

“……”

……

Just when Guo An suddenly began to enjoy the blessings of all people.

Shi Zhufu, the head of Yanwang Mansion, with a group of scribes from the Changshi Division, began to be busy day and night.

Ever since the Yanwangfu began to attack Goryeo.

Half of the scribes of the Shi Division, the governor of the Yanwang Mansion, were transferred to Goryeo.

However, the government affairs of Shi Si, the head of the Yanwang Mansion, not only did not decrease, but increased day by day.

Especially during the New Year, it is not only necessary to statistically audit various account books.

It is also necessary to give out various benefits and rewards.

At this time, Zhu Fu had to hire dozens of scholars from the academy to help.

But despite this, they are very busy.

"Wechen see His Highness!"

Zhu Fu came to the Cunxin Hall with a reluctant face, and how much time he had to waste on this trip.

Zhu Di didn't know Zhu Fu's worries, but said directly: "Zhu Qing, we are going to pave a cement avenue from Zhangjiawan Wharf to Dagukou after the beginning of spring. ”

"What?"

Zhu Fu was shocked, "Your Highness, you want to pave such a long cement avenue?" ”

"Hmm!"

Zhu Di nodded slightly.

After Zhu Fu pondered for a moment, he said: "Your Highness, paving the cement avenue is a great thing for the surrounding people.

However, such a long cement avenue requires labor and cement, but days. ”

Zhu Di said: "So, let's make a charter." ”

"For the matter of labor, if my Beiping Mansion can't hire so many people, I can let Guo Qing go to Goryeo, or catch it in the Wa Kingdom."

"With gorino and vas?"

Zhu Fu frowned slightly, "Your Highness, how many people do I employ in Beiping Mansion, and the officials and gentry around the cement avenue still need to be discussed, and it is difficult to determine the number of people these days with only Weichen and a group of scribes." ”

Zhu Di said: "In this way, I will inform them first, and after the New Year's Festival, I will count them." ”

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Zhu replied.

Then, thinking of something, Zhu Fu couldn't help but speak again: "Your Highness, the government affairs of the Changshi Division are too many in the past few days, and those scholars summoned from the academy are very unfamiliar, I don't know if Guo Changshi can be recalled to the palace?" ”

"Guo Qing?"

Zhu Di's brows furrowed slightly, "We have agreed with all of them, and after the New Year's Festival, we can't go back on our word."

However, Zhu Qing can continue to recruit some college scholars as scribes.

After the year, my Yan Wangfu will continue to attack the Wa Kingdom, and I need more scribes! ”

At this moment, Zhu Fu's face changed greatly.

"Your Royal Highness, in the past few years, Changshi Si Ke has been a great scribe, and they were all brought to Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom by Guo Changshi.

Nowadays, although Wechen is recruiting more scribes.

However, those scribes were very unfamiliar one by one, and Weichen worked hard to teach them.

And now, seeing that Weichen is about to train them to maturity, and they are going to be transferred to Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom?

Why didn't Guo Changshi personally train the scribes and toss the ministers like this? ”

"Your Highness, in the past few days of the New Year's Festival, Wei Chen and those scribes have to be busy with various government affairs every day, and they will not go home until midnight.

The next day, I had to come early to be busy with government affairs.

Weichen and the others are already exhausted, and now Guo An not only wants to pave the cement road, but also wants to take away the scribe who Weichen has trained for this year again, and Weichen is not convinced! ”

Zhu Fu reacted so violently that Zhu Di couldn't help but be stunned.

"Zhu Qing rest assured, Guo Qing will only bring a few scribes with him when he goes to the Wa Kingdom, and then Zhu Qing will give him half of the capable scribes, and then give a few new scribes, and let Guo Qing train himself!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Zhu Fu replied sullenly, and asked again: "Your Highness, then I don't know if you can summon Guo Changshi to the palace to help Weichen share some government affairs?" ”

Zhu Di said: "This matter is all up to Zhu Qing!" ”

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

A hint of joy finally appeared on Zhu Fu's face.

When Zhu Fu left, Zhu Di breathed a sigh of relief.

In the past two years, Zhu Di has seen the huge account books of the Changshi Division several times, and every time he looks at it, his scalp is numb.

For Zhu Fu and other officials of the Long History Division, it can also be understood.

……

"Let us go to the palace to be on duty?"

Guo Mansion, Main Hall.

Guo An looked listlessly at the somewhat familiar Baihu in front of him, with a puzzled expression.

"Didn't Your Highness allow this official and the others to rest until after the New Year's Festival?"

The hundred households hurriedly said: "Guo Changshi, this matter is Zhu Changshi asking His Highness for instructions......

"Ah sneeze~"

Without waiting for Baihu to finish speaking, Guo An couldn't help but sneeze a few times in a row.

Then, he said weakly: "You go back and tell Your Highness that I have been overworked in the past few days, occasionally feeling cold, and my body is very weak, I am afraid that I will not be able to go to the palace to be on duty, so I specially ask His Highness for a few days off." ”

"This ......"

The hundred households glanced at Guo An suspiciously, looking embarrassed.

Guo An shivered coldly again, and commanded to Erniu on the side: "Erniu, master, I'm cold again, help me back to bed!"

In addition, if you have more stoves, the weather is really cold! ”

"Yes, sir!"

Erniu hurriedly helped Guo An and walked to the back house.

In the main hall, the housekeeper Fu Bo bowed his hand respectfully towards the hundred households, and said: "Please forgive this general, my lord has been fighting the Japanese country for such a long time as a civil official, and his body has long been exhausted.

A few days after returning, he began to fall ill, and he has not recovered until now.

Therefore, please forgive your sins! ”

A trace of helplessness flashed in Baihu's eyes, but he didn't dare to make too many mistakes, so he had to go back and return to Zhu Fu.

"Guo An is sick?"

Zhu Fu was also suspicious.

However, this incident was originally his name for King Yan, and he wanted to trick Guo An into coming to the palace and share some government affairs with them.

Now, Guo An is sick, and he can only give up!

……

Ask for a commuter pass!
