Chapter 732 Reunion Dinner

As a brother, Zhu Yunyou really needs to educate his younger brother well, which is also his responsibility and obligation. If you really want to say it, not only the younger brother needs to be disciplined, but some uncles, or nephews, also need to take care of and care.

After all, Zhu Yunyou is now the nominal parent, so these things are naturally his responsibility.

The fourth brother had some trouble and needed some discipline, and the fifth brother also needed to come back from his hometown in Fengyang.

This is also a characteristic of the royal family in the Ming Dynasty. Basically, before being granted the title, you must go back to your hometown in Fengyang to observe the foundation of your ancestors, let them know that the people's livelihood is difficult, and let them know that it is not easy for their fathers and ancestors to conquer the country.

Although the vast majority of the royal family members will return to their hometown in Fengyang as a formality, they may not make great progress through such an observation. However, they must still do what they should do, and some seemingly formalism also has certain meanings.

The royal family has a special status and should set some examples. Even if there are some playboys or even those who do evil in the royal family, they still have to have rules, and Zhu Yunyou never objected to these things.

After sending his younger brother away, Zhu Yunyou opened some of the notes drafted by the cabinet, and his eyes immediately lit up.

Yan Zhenzhi began to act. Taking advantage of the dry season, he mobilized civilians to start strengthening the river embankment in Xinxiang area. This is the area where the Yellow River once broke.

Of course, this is definitely not all. The most important thing is to strengthen the embankment on the north bank, build a dam to block the diversion in the north, and let the Yellow River go all the Huaihe River channels. This is the beginning, because everyone knows that the river channels from the Yellow River to the Huaihe River are not fixed.

So this is just a preliminary work. Next, we must completely let the Yellow River flow from the Bian River to the Si River, and then flow from the Si River to the fixed river channel of the Huai River. Although this is not a treatment for the symptoms and root causes, if everything goes well, it can basically ensure that the stability of the Yellow River channel for decades and a hundred years will not allow the Yellow River to continue to change its course.

Zhu Yunyou has always attached great importance to this matter, even though it has been good in recent years and there is no big flood. But you can't just take luck and prepare in advance while it seems to be stable now, so that the people on both sides of the Yellow River can be more stable.

It can also make future generations feel a little more worry-free. After all, once the Yellow River breaks, not to mention the turmoil in the world, it will also cause countless people to be displaced and cause great hidden dangers.

Zhu Yunyou started working hard now when the Yellow River diverted and captured the Huai River into the sea. Not to mention solving all hidden dangers, but if you can solve some hidden dangers, then do more things. This is also a feature of Zhu Yunyou.

If you don’t delay today’s things until tomorrow, you won’t think about just being able to live by it. You always feel that you can do more and better.

Now Zhu Yunyou probably understands some of Lao Zhu's original actions. He always thinks that he is a little tired and has some skills, so he should do everything as much as possible, so that future generations can have a stable country.

This is not that those who are capable work harder, or that is, that is, some people are born to work hard, and they always think about doing more things. They don’t feel that there is any hardship. They enjoy this process very much.

Looking at Yan Zhenzhi's memorial, Zhu Yunyou couldn't help but nodded. It seemed that Yan Zhenzhi was very attentive. The preliminary preparations were very sufficient, not only with plans, but also with a lot of material preparations, so now they can be carried out in an orderly manner.

However, such a project will inevitably require countless money and grain, and no matter how much material there is, it will not be too much. So even though the court had prepared a lot before, whether it was materials, money and grain, or civil servants, or labor, Yan Zhenzhi was still asking for support.

I don’t need to pay attention to it for the time being. Yan Zhenzhi is also a Pixiu. This former Minister of Works has always liked to ask for money and people. Even if the warehouse has a large reserve of materials, he still has to ask for more materials in advance so that he can feel at ease and do things steadily.

Since I already know Yan Zhenzhi's personality very well, there is no need to be nervous about many things.

It is really not easy to be a good emperor, and there are too many things that the emperor needs to make decisions.

Naturally, it means that you need to make choices, make some decisions, and the various suggestions of ministers, etc., which must not be accepted in full. Otherwise, you will not be good at accepting advice, and it will only make the emperor lose his power and the country will be turbulent.

Just when Zhu Yunyou was still sighing that Yan Zhen was doing his job well, a little eunuch ran to Wuying Palace in panic to ask for a meeting. The next moment, Wang Chengen was also a little panic, and he quickly trotted towards Zhu Yunyou with a panic look.

Looking at Wang Chengen's appearance, Zhu Yunyou seemed to notice it, "Let's go and go to the Qianqing Palace."

After saying this, Zhu Yunyou quickly walked out of Wuying Hall, "Don't let the prince and the queen go over and let the people from the Imperial Hospital wait. The palace city strengthens its defense and allows Zhongshan Gong to enter the palace to take charge of the defense of the imperial city."

As the saying goes, Zhu Yunyou has already taken control of the power, and basically there is no need to worry about some unrest at some moments. But some things are like this, and it is not a bad thing to prepare in advance, and it is not an exaggeration to be careful about some things.

Zhu Yunyou, who was speeding up, said as he walked, "Be careful in the palace. If the palace maid and eunuchs dare to leak the news at will, they will never forgive them if they punish them! This matter is known to the queen, and you must not be merciful at this time!"

Wang Chengen naturally remembered that when Zi can be said to have been more polite since he was a child, he was polite to the eunuchs and maids in the palace and would not punish them for some minor mistakes. But in this situation, he would not be kind. If some evil people do not think about the emperor's kindness and privately leak the news in the palace, of course, they would not be merciful to these people.

This is not only an explanation to Wang Chengen, but also a reminder to the queen. At this time, you need to be tougher. You should not cause any officials to be unstable because of the troubling news, and you should not make the people of Yingtian Prefecture feel suspicious.

Zhu Yunyou, who almost ran away, was not afraid of being out of breath and continued, "Remember the royal family, nobles and officials who were inquiring about the situation in the imperial city, and ask the Jinyiwei and the East Factory to investigate strictly!"

Supervision is also very necessary. Even though Lao Zhu started to meet his children some time ago, some news came out, but in general it was also controllable.

Of course, Zhu Yunyou also understood that many people were always paying attention to the movements of the imperial city, especially the movements of the Qianqing Palace.

It is hard to say the motivations of those people. Zhu Yunyou is not serious in many cases. But at this time, if you care too much or are thinking about something, maybe Zhu Yunyou will turn against you and maybe settle the score in the future.

Zhu Yunyou just sat quietly in front of the couch, just looking at the old Zhu Cang's face, and I felt indescribable.

The lights in the palace were also lit, and it was already dark before I knew it.

Wang Chengen carefully walked up to Zhu Yunyou and said, "Your Majesty, please do you want to eat?"

Zhu Yunyou said with a blank expression, "I have no appetite, has Zhongshan Gong entered the palace?"

Wang Chengen immediately reported in a low voice, "Go back to Your Majesty, Duke Zhongshan is on duty in the palace, and Marquis Wuding and Marquis Changxing are also guarding the palace."

Zhu Yunyou nodded slightly, and felt a little more at ease. It seems that some things need to be prepared. If this happens, Zhu Yunyou really needs to make some preparations.

Zhu Yunyou asked again, "Where are the fifth uncle and the emperor, where are they now?"

Wang Chengen also immediately said, "His Highness of the King of Zhou and his two great princesses have entered the palace and are waiting in the side hall."

Zhu Yunyou nodded slightly. These things must be done well. Just prepare in advance. Zhu Yunyou also knew in his heart that he should do it. This is his responsibility, and this is what he must do well.

At this moment, Lao Zhu, who was lying on the couch, moved his eyelids slightly a few times, and then slowly opened his eyes. Seeing Zhu Yunyou, Lao Zhu's turbid eyes seemed to have some light.

Old Zhu tried hard to raise his hand. Zhu Yunyou noticed this and quickly held Old Zhu's hand, "Grandpa Emperor, you scared us."

"We're seeing our parents, they say we're promising." Lao Zhu's voice was very quiet, but he couldn't express his happiness. "Let's tell them that we became emperor and gave them more than 20 grandchildren and more than 100 great-grandchildren. Our Zhu family is so noble."

Zhu Yunyou immediately said, "They must be very happy. That is, our emperor's grandfather is a hero, and our Zhu family has changed from an old farmer to an emperor. I'm afraid they don't believe it, are they?"

"I don't believe it." Old Zhu said happily, "Our father wants to beat us, but our mother can't stop us. We run away when we are afraid of being beaten. Your eldest grandfather and second grandfather are still chasing us. They all say we are hysterical, and it's your third grandfather and second aunt who are protecting us."

Zhu Yunyou smiled and said, "I don't believe it. Our ancestors of the Zhu family were farming. We have never seen the magistrate before. They all think that they are a great official. If you give it to the emperor, it would be strange if they can believe it!"

Seeing that Lao Zhu was about to get up, Zhu Yunyou quickly helped Lao Zhu up and let Lao Zhu lean against him.

Holding his grandson's hand, Lao Zhu smiled and said, "They don't believe it, they all say we are talking nonsense. Later, we asked your grandmother and your father to talk to them. People who are both powerful in your grandmother like you. Your father is also capable, he is good in his demeanor and wears a dragon robe, so the people in our family believe it. And your grandpa, who also said this, and everyone in the family said he was wearing costumes."

Zhu Yunyou's grandfather was naturally Duke Cao Li Zhen, and Old Zhu once personally gave Li Zhen the five-clawed dragon robe.

Zhu Yunyou smiled and said, "Our grandmother is a stingy person. If she were to take charge of the family, the family would be prosperous."

Lao Zhu naturally recognized these things and said with some anticipation, "It's getting dark? We've been sleeping for a long time, can you have a drink with us?"

Zhu Yunyou's heart skipped, and he squeezed out a smile and said, "Son, my grandson will accompany the emperor to have a drink. Uncle Wu and the two emperors are outside, so let's have a drink together."

Lao Zhu smiled and nodded, "Cheng, Cheng, bring our Yin'er too. Let's go after dinner."
