Zhu Jianshen was in the Qianqing Palace, walking around his treasure shelf with his hands behind his back.
A young eunuch was loudly reporting what happened in the Huagai Palace.
Zhu Jianshen listened to the little eunuch's words while touching the baby.
When the little eunuch mentioned the words that Duke Cheng Guo said: "Ride horses without drinking." Zhu Jianshen was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand to interrupt the little eunuch.
"Gong Cheng Guo, that's really what he said."
"Your Majesty, Duke Cheng Guo indeed said so."
Zhu Jianshen smiled and looked at Zhang Bao: "Our General Zhu keeps a straight face every day and is extremely majestic. Unexpectedly, he is also a humorous person."
"That is, in front of His Majesty, Duke Cheng Guo must not be too presumptuous. Military generals are already eye-catching, and he is the leader of nobles. All officials are watching."
Zhu Jianshen nodded, he should also think about getting close to Duke Cheng.
After all, after the British Duke Zhang Fu left, Duke Cheng was indeed the central military commander. He still needed him to support the situation. He could not favor one over the other.
The little eunuch saw that His Majesty and Eunuch Zhang were silent, so he continued: "Gong Chengguo, Yu Ma refused Wu Yanghou's toast because he did not drink alcohol, so he went directly to Taining Hou to drink. Wu Yanghou He looks very bad."
After hearing what the little eunuch said, Zhu Jianshen burst into laughter.
Zhu Jianshen felt something was wrong when he heard the little eunuch talking about the conversation between Cheng Guogong and Wu Yanghou about their seats. After hearing the little eunuch's last words, he understood.
There are so many civil and military officials who are gentle, courteous and thrifty. Duke Cheng Guo really cares...
After the young eunuch finished speaking, Zhu Jianshen asked again: "How did my Xu Qing behave at the banquet?"
"Your Majesty, the imperial censor of Xudu is in the palace, but he is stealing the show. He has also made an appointment with Marquis Wuyang. Today he will go to Shifu to see the imperial poems given to Marquis Wuyang by your majesty."
Zhu Jianshen nodded, and then asked: "Did Xu Youzhen add insult to injury when the Taibao warned Wu Yanghou?"
"Yes, the censor of Xudu said a lot." The young eunuch said quickly.
After listening to the little eunuch's words, Zhu Jianshen felt relieved.
The door-kicking trio are like a ball of fire when combined, they may burn themselves, but when they disperse, they will become a sharp weapon in their hands.
Now the inner palace eunuch Cao Jixiang has gone to Tongzhou to prepare for his subsequent journey to the Pirate King.
Shi Heng was sent to Liaodong to fight against the Jurchens.
Xu Youzhen has been completely tied to him, and he is the first-class loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty.
The trio who kicked down the door were no longer a threat to him.
After the young eunuch finished his report, he retreated.
Zhu Jianshen was no longer interested in playing with porcelain. He returned to the dragon case, glanced at Zhang Bao, and then pointed to the words on the dragon case.
"Zhang Daban, how do you like my calligraphy?"
"Okay, very good, very good. Your Majesty, at such a young age, has the style of everyone."
After listening to Zhang Bao's words, Zhu Jianshen smiled bitterly.
"My handwriting is very bad. Even if I practice it for another ten or twenty years, I won't make much progress. But I am the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. No matter how bad my handwriting is, the officials will regard it as an honor." , is the same as the python robe and jade belt, but you cannot give too much of these two things, otherwise they will not be precious. If anyone asks for a letter in the future, Zhang Daban will recommend it for me."
Zhu Jianshen knows that this is the same as the highest medal. If you give out too many medals, you won't be able to show the glory.
Xu Youzhen made a surprise attack this time, which caught Zhu Jianshen off guard. Looking at Xu Youzhen's resentful eyes, he didn't know how to refuse.
After Zhang Bao heard this, he hurriedly said: "Yes, Your Majesty, don't worry, this slave will definitely be pushed by Your Majesty in the future."
Zhu Jianshen nodded with satisfaction.
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Xian came.
The purpose of coming made Zhu Jianshen very confused.
Asking for words.
In the end, Zhu Jianshen wrote the words "loyalty to the emperor and the country" to Li Xian.
Li Xian is so eloquent.
Zhang Bao couldn't stop him at all, and Zhu Jianshen felt that if he didn't write a letter for him, he would be sorry for the central minister who was dedicated to assisting him.
What Li Xian probably means is, Your Majesty, I am just a scholar, but I was dragged out to fight by the Supreme Emperor. I almost died young because of your old Zhu family. Fortunately, Your Majesty has been blessed. God has mercy on me and allows me to have the relationship of a king and a minister with your Majesty. Fate, now, both Xu Youzhen and Shi Heng have copybooks to commend them. Since His Majesty ascended the throne, I have been in the center. I have worked diligently for many years and dare not neglect state affairs or forget your kindness. Do you think it is also true? Give me a pair.
After sending Li Xian away, Zhang Bao continued to accuse him.
Zhu Jianshen waved his hand to forgive his sin. Li Xian's mouth was too clever, and he and Zhang Bao were no match for him.
Having said that, even if Xu Youzhen was in the Qianqing Palace, he would not be Li Xian's opponent who tried his best.
Of course, this also surprised Zhu Jianshen.
The first coffee table that opened was too big.
The second assistant to the cabinet controlled half of the national affairs of the Ming Dynasty. When such a person came to ask Zhu Jianshen to write, Zhu Jianshen had no way to refuse.
Fortunately, in the next few days, Li Xian was the only one who came to ask for words, which made Zhu Jianshen less worried.
More than one million taels of silver entered the treasury of the Ministry of Household Affairs.
Because of the huge amount of people pouring into the capital, the price of this precious item has dropped a lot, and ordinary people can buy one to replenish their health.
That is to say, in the seventh year of Chenghua, the birth rate of the capital's population soared...
…………
Tongzhou.
Cao Jixiang followed Jiang Yuan and had in-depth exchanges with more than a dozen shipbuilders.
I also learned a little bit about the construction of sea-going ships.
Regarding his wealth and life, Cao Jixiang was very concerned and asked if he could build an unsinkable ship on the sea.
The old boatmen waved their hands.
There is no unsinkable ship in this world, but a treasure ship can withstand the wind and waves on the sea, and there is a 70% to 80% chance that it will not sink.
This made Cao Jixiang feel very sad in his heart.
Then there is still a 20-30% chance of going to the sea to feed the fish.
Jiang Yuan's focus on this matter is how long it will take for Longjiang Shipping Company's treasure ship to be completed if all the people are available.
The boatman replied three months.
How long would it take to rebuild two treasure ships?
Two to three years.
Everyone went to the dock in Tongzhou together.
Huge ships transporting goods and food to and from the city are parked at the pier.
Cao Jixiang has been on a ship from Shandong to North Korea, and he is no stranger to such giant ships.
The old boatmen pointed the ships to Jiang Yuan, and Cao Jixiang and the others explained the difference between sea ships and river ships.
Cao Jixiang had only a half-understanding, but Jiang Yuan had a sudden enlightenment.
Gained a deeper insight into both types of vessels.
The boatmen were warmly entertained in Jiangyuan, Tongzhou, and then set off back to Beijing. The boatmen also took the boat back to Yingtian Mansion.
The smoke cage is cold, the moon is caged in the sand, and I stay in Qinhuai at night near a restaurant. The merchant girl does not know the hatred of the country's subjugation, but she still sings the flowers in the backyard across the river.
Ten miles from Qinhuai, one dream from Jinling.
During the day, his true appearance was not visible on the Qinhuai River, but at night, the lanterns were displayed and small boats floated in the river. From the boats, sometimes a woman's gasping sound could be heard, and sometimes a man's roar could be heard. .
The old boatman doesn't care about the spring scenery in the cabin, the singing and dancing of the birds, because he is old and has never seen any storms...
A flower boat stopped at the shore, and a young man stepped out of the flower boat.
When he came out, he was still wearing his clothes.
There were several strong men in black standing on the shore, and our behavior was telling others that we were soldiers and were not to be trifled with.
Looking at the young man's appearance, these people sighed. The family in the Duke's Mansion was unlucky.
This mother is still the son of Duke Cheng. After the father-in-law, this is obviously a breeding donkey. This is the fourth flower boat.
Duke Cheng Guo originally arranged for his nephew, but after his legitimate son Zhu Yi learned about it, he ran to Duke Cheng and kept lobbying, and finally he succeeded.
"Little Duke, please hurry back to the inn. We have to go to Longjiang Shipping Company tomorrow." The leading man said with a serious face.
"Haha, don't worry, don't worry, I'll go over there and have a look." With that said, Zhu Yi jumped off the boat.
At this time, a woman with a delicate appearance poked her head out from the boat cloth.
"Master, please go slowly. Master, do you come here often?"
With a sweet voice and half of her shoulders exposed, she looked like a charming little fairy.
"Okay, I'll look for you next time when I come." As she said that, Zhu Yi looked at the flower buildings on the shore and the flower boats on the Qinhuai River.
Jinling is better.
"Brothers, if you want to play too, I'll invite you..."
Several strong men swallowed, and their opinions became inconsistent...
