Zhu Xi and Zhu Di stood up and promised that this matter was not a good job. Most of the local guards now were Zhu Yuanzhang's old brothers. They had many connections in the army. If they pulled out the carrots and brought out the mud, they would offend a lot of people. .
It's a pity that the eldest brother has already given the order, and they can't disobey it even if they are the King of Jin and King Qi. Looking at the calm King Zhu Fan of Chu, the two brothers silently gritted their teeth, traitors.
Zhu Biao continued: "Whether you want to bring a new scholar or a noble disciple, you can do whatever you want. You must be careful and careful. If something happens, even if you are a prince, you will not be able to escape punishment."
Zhu Biao wasn't worried about whether they could handle it successfully. This matter was actually very simple, but it offended people too much. But with their status, as long as they didn't want to make friends with party members, there was no need to give anyone face.
As for being able to distinguish between good and bad grain, Zhu Di spent a long time looking at the grain and grass in the rear army during the Northern Expedition with him. I heard that they all had the ability to tell the year by rubbing and smelling it.
The rest is to roughly determine the management level. Generally, those responsible for such things are court officials. They have their own grades and just follow orders.
This time, the noble disciples each have their own circles, and the new scholars have not yet been assigned positions, so they must be prepared first. Zhu Biao put Xu Yungong and Chang Mao in charge, and Chang Mao was in charge of those who were more capable and had a good reputation. Honorable sons and daughters.
Xu Yungong was in charge of those dandy young men, and Zhu Biao believed that Xu Yungong could cure them. As for the Jinshi, fifty of them were given to Zhu Xi and Zhu Di, and the rest were managed by Guo Chong, with the first-level Jinshi as middle-level leaders.
Although the positions of the Jinshi will be finally evaluated through this relocation, since they can take the first-level exam, they naturally have some advantages, so that it is fair and reasonable.
As long as the rest perform well, Zhu Biao will naturally select them and entrust them with important tasks. The Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Industry will also provide help, but they will only be assistants, and they will still have to complete most of the work. This can also be regarded as the court's training of the next generation.
Naturally, the army also had to be brought. Pingliang Hou Fei Ju led 50,000 elite troops to follow him. Zhu Biao glanced at Zhu Fan and said, "With my order, you can divide 20,000 soldiers from Pingliang Hou Fei Ju and set out early tomorrow morning. Along the way, To wipe out the bandits, Xu Yungong will follow and let those trash things see blood."
It is now the early years of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the wars and chaos in various places have just ended. However, there are still a lot of bandits in the mountains, blocking roads, robbing people, killing people and taking wealth.
These guys are very shrewd. If the limelight goes wrong, they will hide in the deep mountains and old forests. The local county government's militiamen only have so few, so naturally they cannot catch them. The court has no time to sweep them away, so the matter is delayed.
Now it is raining and spanking children, so he has nothing to do. Let those dandy boys go see the blood. Zhu Biao is not worried about any accidents. After all, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and three princes are traveling this time, and they are also leading a group of people. A noble son with a lot of votes.
In order to protect this group of ancestors, the imperial court drew elites from various ministries in the capital to form Fei Ju's 50,000 elite soldiers. These are all real military elites, let alone mopping up a group of mountain bandits with scraps of copper and iron. There is nothing to be afraid of if you try the Mongolian cavalry.
Zhu Fan and Xu Yungong stood up and agreed. They were both very happy. It was a rare opportunity to lead the army. It was impossible to swarm the bandits with 20,000 troops. The troops must be divided, so each could do his own thing.
Although Xu Yungong had some headaches over the dandy boys he managed, he was not too worried. He was the son of Xu Da, King of Zhongshan. If he was the eldest among the noble boys, even Chang Mao and Li Qi did not have as much prestige as him. .
What's more, the Xu family is a lonely minister and is only loyal to the Zhu family, so there is no need to give face to the elders of these guys. As long as they are guaranteed not to die, Xu Yungong is ready to train them well.
Zhu Biao began to make an appointment with them again. The general route to Shanxi this time was to start from Nanjing, pass through Luzhou Prefecture, Runing Prefecture, Kaifeng Prefecture, then enter Shanxi from Huaiqing Prefecture, and meet near Pingyang Prefecture.
During this period, Zhu Xi and Zhu Di had to enter the state capitals along the way to inspect the granaries. Zhu Biao was not prepared to go in. Otherwise, Zhu Biao would argue with the local officials along the way and he would not be able to reach Shanxi in another two months.
The meal lasted for two hours, with Zhu Biao giving orders most of the time, and the others slowly getting into the mood. In the end, everyone had a clear plan for their tasks.
After saying that, the meeting adjourned, Zhu Biao returned to the East Palace, and the others went back to their respective homes. Guo Chong, Wu Bozong and others wanted to go back to assign work to the eager new scholars.
Chang Luohua was sitting in the room at this time, and Ms. Chen was guiding her to thread the needle. She wanted to make a pair of shoes and socks for Zhu Biao, and it was almost done now. Although it didn't look very good-looking, it was still her heart.
Mrs. Chen glanced at her and said, "You are so talkative, your highness. It will take several months for His Highness to leave. If you don't bring a few maids to serve you, I'm afraid there will be many people in the East Palace when you come back."
Chang Luohua frowned and said: "I have already mentioned it to His Highness, and His Highness said not to take it, and His Highness is not the kind of person who is obsessed with women."
Mrs. Chen smiled bitterly and said: "My slave's Crown Princess, His Royal Highness is still young. There must be local officials offering beauties along the way. If Your Highness accepts her, what if she is a flirtatious thing, and it will be troublesome to bring her back to the East Palace."
Chang Luohua frowned. Although she knew that His Highness the Crown Prince would definitely have other concubines, she didn't want such women among them. If so, it would be better to let Yun Jin Nuanyu and the others serve.
At this time, a palace maid informed that His Royal Highness the Prince had arrived at the palace gate. Chang Luohua felt like getting up and tidying up, and then walked out to greet him.
Waiting for the footsteps to approach, the palace maids and eunuchs all knelt down to worship. Chang Luohua stood on his knees, clasped his hands, right hand on top, leaned over slightly, moved his hands slightly, and bent his knees slightly.
"We sincerely welcome His Highness the Crown Prince back to the palace."
As Zhu Biao stepped into the courtyard with his left foot, a neat greeting sounded. Zhu Biao smiled and stepped forward to help his princess: "Everyone is exempt from the courtesy."
The couple looked at each other, then walked into the house, and the others followed. Immediately after entering the house, tea and snacks were served. Zhu Biao picked up a piece of pastry and said to Liu Jin: "Go down and get ready. We will set off early tomorrow morning." ."
Liu Jin bowed and promised that he really had to prepare some things. He also accumulated a lot of experience during the last expedition with the army. He was determined to serve His Highness the Crown Prince well and never let His Highness lose any weight.
Zhu Biao glanced at the needlework on the side, and then told the Crown Princess about his appointment of Chang Mao. Chang Luohua was not a fool, so he naturally knew that His Highness was taking extra care of her brother.
Chang Luohua stood up and thanked her. Zhu Biao smiled. Small things that could bring peace to his family were definitely profitable. Zhu Biao took his princess to take a bath.
They have been away for several months, so of course they have to enjoy their life. Chang Luohua's cheeks turned red. Although they were husband and wife, they had never bathed together. They were all served separately by the maid.
