The letter contained Chu Ze’s recent whereabouts.
It said that he met with Fujian officials and the head of the Yingtian Department.
But for some reason, they had a good stay in Quanzhou, but they suddenly diverted to Fuzhou.
Why is he going to Fuzhou?
The situation in Quanzhou is obviously not good, and others are in Quanzhou, so why do they have to go around in this circle?
Zhu Yuanzhang said he couldn't understand.
Zhu Biao also knew the content of that letter.
He guessed: "It is probably the situation in Fuzhou that is more serious."
"...That's all we can do."
But Zhu Yuanzhang still felt that there was a deeper meaning in it.
It's just that they can't figure it out yet, so they can only use such words to convince themselves.
Zhu Yuanzhang put down the letter.
Zhu Biao looked at his father's thoughtful look and suddenly asked: "Father, why did you suddenly send General Zhao to Fujian?"
What else can you do?
of course……
Zhu Yuanzhang was so confident in his heart, but he felt guilty when facing his good son.
He didn't tell Zhu Biao about this.
The letter was also accidentally seen by Zhu Biao.
Of course, this was also because he had never thought of hiding it from Zhu Biao.
When Zhu Biao asked, Zhu Yuanzhang was still a little panicked.
But he is the emperor.
Why are you panicking?
Whatever he does is what he should do.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang felt confident instantly.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, it sounded like random nonsense: "This kid Chu Ze always has unexpected ways of doing things. If we didn't send someone to keep an eye on him, we would never mention it in the memorial he reported. We can't watch these interesting excitements."
Zhu Biao: "..."
I have to say, this is indeed a reason.
"Chu Ze's behavior is indeed different from others. But we still hope that dad can tell us about this in the future."
They all know Chu Ze's temperament, and this man can't wait to put the word loyalty on his face.
Zhu Biao was not worried that Chu Ze would do something bad.
But he was afraid that his father would be too worried.
Look now, didn't they just send Zhao Shifa?
And he even hid it from him.
If he hadn't bumped into him accidentally, his father might not have even planned to tell him.
Zhu Biao believed that he was the one who led Chu Ze into the court. Coupled with his ability, Zhu Biao couldn't bear the separation between him and his father.
Wherever his presence is needed, he will naturally stand up.
…
Fuzhou Guanyi.
Chu Ze got up refreshed, stretched and started to wash up.
After he finished eating, Shen Nan also arrived.
There was also a magistrate and a tongzhi who arrived together.
But to Cong Cong's surprise, the general judge from this government did not arrive.
Chu Ze asked.
Shen Nan said: "Lu Tongpan has some unfinished matters. Yesterday, he specially made time to get a glimpse of the master, but he has to be busy today."
"I see."
Chu Ze nodded and stopped asking.
He glanced at Zhu Ping and others who were already prepared, and said, "Let's go, let's go see the West Lake first."
"good."
Under the leadership of Shen Nan, they headed straight to the West Lake.
Along the way, Chu Ze saw many people carrying water.
These people carry or carry water bucket by bucket from the Min River to their fields.
For those who are close to rivers and streams, water is diverted from nearby irrigation canals and then introduced into the fields.
Those far away can only be carried by humans.
Chu Ze even saw several years old babies staggering toward the fields carrying half a bucket of water.
Occasionally, the small body swayed, and half of the already small water was spilled.
When it was delivered to the field, not even a single seedling could be watered.
Chu Ze frowned at this.
Shen Nan also felt her heart pounding.
Now is the time for some seedlings to go to the ground, and water is needed.
But hadn't he already told them that they were not allowed to carry water for the next two days?
How did this happen!
Out of sight of Chu Ze, Shen Nan glared at Tongzhi and Zhizhou fiercely.
Tongzhi and Zhizhou were also aggrieved.
He ordered this matter last night.
But apparently no one listened.
Besides, these seedlings have just been planted, which is when they need water.
It's hot now.
If there is a lack of water, they will all dry out in less than a day.
The common people are reluctant to let their own seedlings die, so they can't tie them up at home and prevent them from coming out.
Tongzhi felt very disgusted in his heart, but on the surface, they did not dare to show it at all.
Chu Ze looked at the surrounding fields with a frown.
Zhu Feng asked coldly: "Master Shen, as far as we know, millions of taels of money are spent on restoring water conservancy every year. Why do people in these places still need to carry water to irrigate their fields?"
"It's just a small mansion. It's just like this, which shows how beautiful other places are." Kang Cheng sighed with regret.
The contempt in his tone was palpable.
Zhu Xi was so angry that he wanted to slap him in the face!
But for a moment, he didn't even know how to refute.
Chu Ze said without turning his head: "The Ming Dynasty has a vast territory. We are determined to be the best, but we cannot cover everything." At this point, Chu Ze suddenly turned his head, glanced at Kang Cheng, and said with an expression as if he had suddenly realized something. , "Sorry, I forgot. Ryukyu Island is a small country with a small territory, so naturally it cannot understand the difficulties of a big country like ours."
After saying that, Chu Ze called Zhu Ping and left.
Sun Zhengde pursed his lips as he listened, trying his best to suppress the smile on his lips.
Shen Nan and his colleagues looked at each other in surprise, exchanging the same meaning——
This Chu Ze was too ungrateful to be taken seriously by the envoys.
Don't tell me, this scene is pretty cool.
Shen Nan immediately chased after him.
Kang Cheng looked at Chu Ze's leaving figure, snorted coldly after a moment, and followed him.
He was interrupted by Kang Cheng just now and could not continue talking about the ditch.
But Chu Ze did not forget this.
He said: "Master Shen, you haven't said anything about the ditch yet."
Shen Nan knew that this matter had to be mentioned.
Fortunately, Kang Cheng interrupted him just now, which gave him time to think of a reason that was not a reason.
Shen Nan showed an apology on her face and said: "Sir, I blame my subordinates for this matter. I have only focused on large-scale water conservancy projects, and I have ignored these details."
"Ignore it?"
"Yes, it's mainly because I'm too busy." Shen Nan nodded repeatedly.
Chu Ze glanced at him strangely and did not continue to ask further questions.
Liu Jing on the side became angry when he heard this.
Chu Ze didn't ask, and he was too embarrassed to interrupt.
But Shen Nan's words made him very unhappy.
Obviously he reminded Shen Nan several times this month!
But Shen Nan didn't take it seriously at all. Later, she thought he came too often and avoided seeing him.
Now he says it's because he's busy.
It's really annoying.
Chu Ze was also angry.
But now is not the time to send it.
Fuzhou has too many problems...
If he wants to govern, he must root out these problems.
It is useless to treat one area after another.
He suppressed his dissatisfaction and continued walking towards the West Lake.
When he reached the edge of Shixi Lake, Chu Ze truly transformed what Liu Jing and the others said into reality.
