The migration of one million residents is not large compared to the more than 40 million people in the south, but after the migration, the results are very impressive.

It may not be obvious in the short term, but in a few generations, the population of these moving places will usher in a skyrocket.

Especially in the Liaodong region!

Without him, there is land!

There is a large amount of arable land as support, and there is no need to worry about the population at all.

Li Qing also believes that the people after migration will soon be really fragrant, because there is too much uncultivated wasteland in the north, and Yongle rice and Yongle beans do not grab fertile land, and can be planted with a little reclamation.

More importantly, this can fundamentally change the structure of the Ming Dynasty.

contributed to this incident, and Li Qing has no regrets.

……

……

Time flies like a white horse, fleeting, and in a flash, it's the New Year again.

The snowflakes are fluttering, and the north wind is bleak.

The winter in Beiping is bitterly cold, and Li Qing has been hiding and not going out, eating hot pot all day long, reading books, or playing chess with the third girl to pass the boring time.

As they get older, they become more and more afraid of the cold, and they hardly go out after winter, and even Li Qing's true qi is not so effective.

One is due to the decline of physical functions, and the other is that the true qi is used too much, and their bodies become resistant.

In the living room, the charcoal pot was blazing, Li Qing was slicing mutton, drinking warm wine, and the three girls were holding a copy of Luo Guanzhong's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" on the side, watching it with relish.

"It's such an interesting book."

"Yes, it's not historical, but it's very interesting."

The three girls were chattering about the plot, and the scene was warm.

"Sir, you look at it too, it's really interesting." Amway.

"I've seen it a long time ago." Li Qing is not interested in this: I have watched the large-scale series several times.

"Come over and eat some more, I can't finish it alone."

The third daughter shook her head: "The concubine is full." ”

"You're so full?"

"It's so full." Wan Ling said, "If you eat too much, you won't digest it." ”

Li Qing was stunned and no longer reluctant.

They...... It's really old.

Although Li Qing had been mentally prepared for a long time, at this time, he still couldn't accept it calmly.

But there's nothing he can do!

Even the proud true qi has little effect, what else can he do?

Li Qing suddenly lost his appetite, got up and said, "I'll go to the courtyard to eliminate food." ”

~

The snow fell all over the sky, and the snow in the courtyard was piled up in a thick layer, and the maid swept it over and over again, but still couldn't sweep it all.

Li Qing has always been gentle to his subordinates, rarely talking about them, a few maids discussed it, and decided to wait until Xue Qing to sweep.

The branches were full of snow, and the branches were bent, and the entire Hou Mansion was covered in silver, and as far as the eye could see, Li Qing stepped on the snow and made a 'creaking' sound.

In previous years, at this time, the three girls would build snowmen, but this year they didn't.

"Whew~"

Li Qing exhaled a breath of hot air, which quickly condensed into hoarfrost, and then disappeared, he stretched out his hand, palm up, and flowers fell on the palm of his hand, and soon melted, and a pool of clear water was gathered in an instant.

"It's so fast!" Li Qing withdrew his hand, a touch of bitterness was held at the corner of his mouth, his face was full of loneliness, and he muttered: "Changsheng is really lonely as snow." ”

Li Qing walked in the snow, lonely and lonely in his heart.

The cold of the wind and snow could not affect him, but the coldness in his heart made him feel lonely.

He walked for an unknown amount of time, until his shoulders and the top of his head were covered with snow, and he woke up.

sighed, and was about to go back to the house, when a little maid hurriedly stepped forward with small steps, "Master, the housekeeper said that the prince is here." ”

"What is he doing for the New Year?" Li Qing muttered, "I know." ”

In the guest hall in the front yard, Zhu Zhanji was sitting on a chair rubbing his hands, freezing like a grandson.

Seeing Li Qing coming, he couldn't help complaining: "You're too picky, you don't even have a charcoal pot at home." ”

"I'm not in the front yard, what are you doing with it?" Li Qing walked to the chair and sat down, "This is the New Year, don't stay in the palace, what are you doing here?" ”

Zhu Zhanji said: "After this year, the shipping will officially begin, and the Jiangnan City Shipping Division, as well as the local officials, are estimated to be unable to cope with it at once, and I want to go to the south to see." ”

"Is there a problem with the army?"

"Hmm."

"What does your father mean?" Li Qing asked again.

"His consent has been sought." Zhu Zhanji said: "Father asked you to go with me." ”

Li Qing wondered: "Can you use me?" ”

"That's what my father said." Zhu Zhanji said, "He said that once the sea is opened, corruption will inevitably breed, especially in the beginning;

In addition, there are complex factors such as vassal kings and nobles;

My father was afraid that if someone would be against me. ”

Li Qing said with a smile: "There's no need to be so careful, right? ”

"I think so too." Zhu Zhanji said helplessly, "But if he arranges it like this, what can I do?" ”

After a pause, "Now that I have taken over the army, the opinions of the six departments are quite large, in order to avoid suspicion, I can only bring some factory guards over, my father means to let me take over the affairs of Nanjing first, by the way...... Purge the rule of officials. ”

"So I'm going to do something!" Li Qing smiled, "However, Nanjing should really do something, since the relocation of the capital, it has almost become a three-in-one, official corruption must be serious, and it is estimated that there are not a few officials and gentry colluding.

The opening of the sea is imminent, and this evil wind must be suppressed first. ”

Li Qing asked, "When will you leave?" ”

"The sixth day of the first month."

"Yes, no problem." Li Qing nodded, "Is there anything else?" ”

Zhu Zhanji thought for a while, "My father's complexion has not been very good these days, you can prescribe him some nourishing medicine, the cabinet and the squire of the Sixth Ministry will probably not come back until early March, and as soon as we leave, he will be even busier." ”

"Okay." Li Qing got up and said: "The medicine can't be prescribed indiscriminately, you have to diagnose the disease before you can cure the disease, let's enter the palace." ”

~

Qianqing Palace.

It's rare for a little fat to be idle, leaning on the chair to listen to music and enjoy the dance, there are candied fruits, snacks, and warm wine on the table, which is called a moisturizing day.

was enjoying it, when he heard that Li Qing and his son were coming, Xiao Fat shouted disappointment, waved off the dancer, and straightened his posture, and then announced that the two of them met.

When Li Qing and the others came in, they happened to meet the dancers who came out, and the two couldn't help but scold: Xiaopang (my father) will really enjoy it!

I think that back then, Zhu Yuanzhang also did this, but unfortunately the dancer failed to enter the palace, so she was impeached by the Yanguan and finally had to give up.

Obviously, in this respect, he is inferior to his grandson.

"Here we go."

"Here we are."

There was some embarrassment on both sides.

Chubby cleared his throat: "What's the matter?" ”

Li Qing glanced at the little yellow door, and almost didn't need Xiaopang's orders, they consciously retreated.

Li Qing said at this time: "The prince said that your complexion is not very good, let me show you." ”

"I feel good." Xiaopang hesitated and stretched out his arm, "Since you're here, let's take a look." ”

"Hmm." Li Qing stepped forward to check the pulse, and frowned habitually.

"Look at you, again." Chubby is already immune, "You have also learned the way of the doctor." ”

After a long time, Li Qing withdrew his hand, "Your Majesty, you are a little weak!" ”

"What's the ......" Xiaopang instinctively asked, and then came to his senses and said, "It's okay to prescribe some medicine to make up for it, it's not a big deal." ”

"......" Li Qing rolled her eyes, "In addition to deficiency, your blood pressure is also a little high." ”

He said seriously: "Don't work too hard in the future, let alone stay up late, and don't get close to ...... Restrain yourself, just don't exercise vigorously......"

"yes, got it." Chubby nodded.

"Do you really remember everything?" Li Qing asked a little uneasily.

"Don't worry." Xiaopang was a little unhappy: In front of his son, Brother Qing, what are you doing here?

"I'm going to control myself and I'm not going to tire myself up."

Li Qing was relieved at this time, and wrote down the prescription, "Once a day is enough." ”

"yes, okay." Chubby put away the prescription and put it in his arms.

Zhu Zhanji saw that his father was a little embarrassed, so he diverted the topic: "Father, tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and from tomorrow, it will officially enter the first year of Hongxi, this year is a special year, do you want to prepare more?" ”

"No, how it was in previous years, how it is this year." Xiaopang didn't care, "It's just a change of year name, nothing special." ”

Then, he became serious: "However, you can watch more about the opening of the sea in the south of the Yangtze River, a good national policy, if it is not implemented well, not only will it not be beneficial, but it will be full of disadvantages." ”

"Erchen understands." Zhu Zhanji assured: "Father and emperor can rest assured, this time I will go to Jiangnan, and my sons will let Jiangnan officials rule Qingming." ”

"Hmm." Xiaopang looked at Li Qing, "You can go this time, I don't worry about Zhanji alone." ”

"Okay." Li Qing advised again, "However, you also have to take care of your body, if you can't be busy, let the six departments be busy, don't carry everything by yourself, so why do you need a courtier?" ”

Xiaopang smiled and said, "Don't worry, I can carry it." ”

Li Qing saw that he really listened, and he didn't say anything more.

After briefly talking about the matter of going down to Jiangnan, Li Qing got up and said goodbye.

……

New Year's Day.

The ministers greeted the New Year, the emperor painted cakes and gave red envelopes, and everyone was in harmony, and their faces were full of joy.

The Chinese New Year is a happy thing, and there are red envelopes to take, who is not happy?

The process is still the same process, the ministers received the red envelope, expressed their gratitude, and left one after another and went home for the New Year.

Yongqing Marquis Mansion.

The red lanterns are hung high, the Spring Festival couplets are in full swing, and there is festivity everywhere, and in the new year, the national mourning period has passed, and even the maids in the house are dressed up in red and green.

Today is a sunny day, and the three girls are sitting in the courtyard basking in the sun, talking about the past.

Seeing Mr. coming back, Lian Xiang smiled and said, "How many red envelopes did Mr. receive?" ”

"Twenty taels of silver." Li Qing came to the table and sat down, grabbed a handful of melon seeds and knocked them on, "Mr. will go to the south in a few days." ”

"Is it going a long time, sir?" Wan Ling asked.

"I'm not sure, I might be back in three months, or maybe it would be half a year younger, or longer." Li Qing said, "Sir, try to come back as soon as possible." ”

The three girls are old and not suitable for long-distance travel, and Li Qing doesn't want them to run back and forth and suffer from fatigue.

Anyway, it won't take long, so it's better to let them stay at home.

The workload this time is relatively large, even if he goes with him, Li Qing can't take care of them.

"Sir, you must take care of your health and come back as soon as possible." Wan Ling looked reluctant, and so did Red Sleeves and Lianxiang.

Li Qing smiled: "At most, it will only be half a year, it won't be too long, this time it's not a war, there won't be any danger, you guys are good at home, I'll bring you a gift back then." ”

"yes, okay." The third girl also smiled, and said with red sleeves: "Mr. has to be counted when he speaks." ”

"Of course, what type of gifts do you all want?"

Lian Xiang said: "Sister Red Sleeves is talking about half a year. ”

"Half a year is enough." Li Qing assured, "There is a high probability that it won't take so long." ”

~

After laughing for a while, the warm sun introduced into the clouds, and as soon as the temperature dropped a lot, Li Qing went back to the house with them.

Li Qing picked up the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" on the table and flipped through it, "I have a different story of the Three Kingdoms, do you want to listen to it?" ”

"Okay."

"In other words, from the end of the Han Dynasty, ......" Li Qing took out the momentum of a storyteller and described the Three Kingdoms that were not quite the same as the original work.

His reproduction of the TV series Three Kingdoms, compared with the original work, the TV series is more interesting, coupled with the unique interpretation, which makes the three girls fascinated.

For several days, Li Qing talked all day long, and the large-scale drama "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" finally came to the finale.

The third girl was still unsatisfied, and exclaimed: "Sir, what you said is even more wonderful than in the book. ”

"Ahaha......" Li Qing smiled: "When I come back from Jiangnan, I will tell you more exciting stories." ”

The third girl smiled and nodded: "Words count." ”

"Words count!"
