Some court officials have recorded that in the sixteen years since the founding of the new dynasty, His Majesty has never spent a solid year in Beijing and has to go out almost every year.

However, it is also because of this that Your Majesty is fully aware of the suffering of the people.

On foreign tours, we observe the people's sentiments.

There is nothing wrong with the saying that one should live high in a temple and worry about its people, but it is not true.

The county magistrate doesn't know the sufferings of the people, let alone the high-ranking officials who live in temples.

Affected by this trend, new standards have been added to the selection of court officials, and they must have local political experience.

The official promotion system is more mature, and it is simply impossible to go directly to the cabinet from the original Hanlin Academy.

Even cabinet ministers often have to visit poor and cold places.

These are all brought out by His Majesty.

Emperor Daning can go wherever he wants, and no one can stop him, not to mention that he has important matters this time.

The war has ended, but the frontline soldiers have not withdrawn, but have switched to garrisoning on the spot. They want to defend the occupied land.

After five years of war, the soldiers were exhausted physically and mentally. They missed their hometown and relatives, but they were away and unable to return.

His Majesty's personal visit to express condolences and grant the title is also a move to appease people's hearts...

There are also many courtiers who speculate that His Majesty established the crown prince just to make it easier for him to go out in the future.

Going to the capital cannot restrain His Majesty's heart.

The power of supervising the country is very great.

Except for important military matters, mobilizing the army to suppress bandits and counterinsurgency, and review of death sentences, all other matters are handled by the supervisory state.

After the court meeting was over, Prince Hongzhao came to the imperial study.

"Come on, I'll take you for a walk."

Guan Ning said: "You were involved in government affairs earlier, but you were just a bystander. Now you are the person in charge, so the situation is naturally different."

"My sons dare not forget the teachings of my father."

"At your age, my father had just come to the capital. At that time, he was just a down-and-out prince. How dangerous it was..."

Guan Ning couldn't help but feel a little emotional when she looked at Hong Zhao.

"My father will leave after the end of the year. Your mother, your second mother-in-law, and the others will also leave. You are the supervisor of the country, and this country will be handed over to you!"

"Father wants to teach you something."

Guan Hongzhao straightened his back.

"Whether you are the crown prince or you become the emperor in the future, you must put the people of the world first. Power is a public weapon, not something belonging to one family. My father has caused too many killings in his life... These are also my father's common people.

Father, I hope you can become a benevolent king!"

Guan Hongzhao did not reply and fell into deep thought.

We drove out of the palace, then out of the capital, then to the outskirts of the capital, and into the mountains and forests.

Guan Hongzhao didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he just followed. The place he came to was Dongshan, where the imperial mausoleum of the previous dynasty was located.

Dongshan produced coal, and when the new dynasty was first established, the powerful and influential families in the capital occupied Dongshan and mined coal privately, at the expense of human life.

At that time, even many people from Guan Ning's mother's family, the Yang family, were involved. Guan Ning's righteous extermination of relatives caused quite a sensation at the time.

After that, Dongshan became a forbidden area.

Everyone said that this was the benevolence and righteousness of Emperor Daning, and they did not disturb Emperor Longjing's head.

These words made Guan Ning feel ashamed. He had made trouble on Emperor Longjing's head and made Emperor Longjing sleep uneasy...

As we go deeper, the vigilance becomes gradually stricter.

The shock in Guan Hongzhao's eyes became more and more intense. He probably knew where his father was taking him.

"Is this the firearms battalion station?"

He couldn't help but ask.

"right."

After receiving a positive answer, Guan Hongzhao suddenly realized: "No wonder the people in Beijing said they could hear the roar outside the city, and the source was here."

The existence of the Firearms Camp is not a secret, but it is very mysterious as it never appears to others.

Even Guan Hongzhao knew for the first time that the Firearms Camp was right in front of him.

As we proceed, the land in front of us gradually opens up.

There is a post at three steps and a sentry at five steps.

"This is the core of Daning. After more than ten years of operation, the entire mountain has been almost hollowed out. This is not only the headquarters of Daning, but also the place where gunpowder and firearms are manufactured..."

"Almost all gunpowder and firearms are produced here."

Guan Ning said: "But the production here can no longer meet the needs. My father is going to Beilin Province to look for a place..."

Guan Hongzhao was slightly startled.

Produced in Beilin Province, it can be directly used in Liang State, making transportation more convenient.

Guan Hongzhao opened his eyes.

He realized that he knew too little about this country.

"This is all my father's hard work, and it is the foundation for me, Daning, to stand on and dominate!"

Guan Ning said: "After returning to the palace, I will give you a few booklets. You must study advanced academics in detail."

"The Crown Prince of Daning must have knowledge, not knowledge in the traditional sense, but new learning!"

"yes."

Guan Hongzhao seemed to have opened the door to a new world. He thought he was already very good, but in fact he was still far behind.

Compared with his father, he is nothing.

These were all created by my father.

After leaving Dongshan, Guan Ning took Guan Hongzhao to the capital camp.

"The garrison of the capital is stationed here. The main military force is to defend the capital. There are 50,000 soldiers in the capital camp, but now there are only 30,000 left..."

Guan Ning said: "The other 20,000 were transferred and died one after another during the war. The capital camp is also a training place for new recruits. The Anxi Army trained here and is still resting here today."

"The martial arts hall is also here!"

"From now on, you will come to the capital camp every day to parade the military horses, and you will also come on horseback."

"yes!"
