Chapter 75 Return to Beijing
"Dong!Dong!Dong..."
The morning bell and evening drums were beaten. When the last drum was beaten, the sky was already dizzy. The people in charge of the Beijing camp guarding Andingmen were also ready to close the city gate.
But just as they were about to take action, an Jinyiwei rode his horse from a distance and said loudly:
"Don't close the door! The fifth prince is about to enter the city!"
As soon as the sound rang out, the soldiers of the Beijing camp who wanted to close the door immediately looked at each other and their hands slowed down.
Not closing the city gate on time is a serious crime, but it may not necessarily lead to death.
If the fifth prince does not allow him to enter the city, he can say that he will die now.
They still remember what Zhu Youjian did a few days ago. No one wants to make him look sexy, even the guard of Anding Sect is the same.
Fortunately, Zhu Youjian did not make it difficult for them to do it. In just a cup of tea, the brigade of Jinyiwei appeared on the streets of the town outside the capital with his carriage.
As the carriage passed by, the Beijing soldiers who had relaxed closed the city gate.
Despite the law of curfew, the patrol soldiers and horses did not dare to stop them when they saw such a large group of Jinyiwei, and they all avoided them.
Judging from this behavior, Zhu Youjian has a little bit of a violation of the law.
But when the late Ming Dynasty was filled with rituals and music, the people ignored the "Ming Dynasty Law". What's the use of him holding on to the death alone?
What's more, I guess the emperor's brother will urge him to get faster.
"Cheng'en, ask someone to go to the palace first and tell the emperor that I will go to see him later."
"Yes..." Wang Chengen nodded and then asked Lu Wenzhao to send an Embroidered Uniform Guard to the palace.
After entering Andingmen, Zhu Youjian and his team soon arrived at Donghua Gate and entered the palace after emitting the token.
Crossing the bridge behind Donghua Gate, Zhu Youjian saw the brightly lit Wenhua Hall.
He knew that in that palace, he was the opponent he needed to fight wits and courage.
The smartest group of people are not dead yet, so his best way is to stay dormant first.
Thinking of this, Zhu Youjian's carriage also stopped, and he got off the carriage and got on the carriage.
Carriages cannot be walked in the palace, so they must be replaced.
During the transfer, an official saw Zhu Youjian appearing, and a light flashed in his eyes, then turned around and walked towards Wenhua Hall.
However, Zhu Youjian did not find out and urged the carriage to rush to the Qianqing Palace.
Although the Qianqing Palace was an inner court, the good emperor had no concubines, and Zhu Youjian was only ten years old, so frequent entry would not cause impeachment.
In just one cup of tea, the chariot in a hurry brought Zhu Youjian to the Qianqing Gate of the Qianqing Palace.
But before he got off the car, someone opened the window and revealed his familiar face.
"A few days later, my brother has lost weight."
Zhu Youxiao looked at Zhu Youjian in the carriage and spoke with a smile, but Zhu Youjian said helplessly:
"Brother, I'm waiting for me to get off the car..."
"You go, I haven't stopped you?" Zhu Youxiao teased, and Zhu Youjian could only get out of the car with no words, and then face to face with the good brother.
"Let's go!" The good emperor grabbed his hand and pulled him to the Qianqing Palace, saying as he walked:
"I was worried yesterday that you wouldn't eat well in Changping, and thought you wouldn't come back, so I asked Zhongxian to send some food."
"I never thought you were back before the things were delivered."
"I learned that you didn't have dinner, so I asked the Imperial Chef to cook more dishes, and you and my brothers have dinner together, and talk about Changping's affairs."
"Your letter is too short and you can't explain it clearly. I'll stay overnight in the Ganqing Palace today, so you and my brothers have a good chat."
Speaking of this, Zhu Youxiao stopped, turned around and complained to Zhu Youjian:
"Others leave the palace and miss their family, and every word they miss when writing letters."
"You're fine. You don't even think about leaving the imperial city."
"Writing more than 3,000 words in handwritten by hand, only more than 100 words are concerned about me, but it is more like memorials than those memorials of civil servants."
"Uh..." Hearing the good emperor's complaint, Zhu Youjian couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
He could not write any numb sentences, and the more than a hundred words in the letter were not his tone. It was Wang Chengen who felt that the family affection was too weak, so he added it to him.
If the good brother knew about this, he would probably be preached again.
Thinking of it, he could only say:
"I discovered a lot of things when I went to Changping this time, so I ignored my brother a little."
Zhu Youxiao didn't care, so he pulled him to continue walking. He soon walked into the Ganqing Palace gate, entered the Yangxin Hall from the main hall, and saw a table of food.
"Sit down and eat while talking." The good emperor ordered, and then pulled Zhu Youjian to sit next to him.
On both sides of the dining table, there were Wang An, Wei Zhongxian and Keshi.
Zhu Youjian nodded to the three of them, and thought it was said hello. Then he sat down and picked up chopsticks, and told Zhu Youxiao what he knew about Liaodong while picking up food.
Many of these things were heard, Zhu Youxiao's brows never stretched and he kept frowned for a quarter of an hour.
He spoke after a few seconds:
"As my brother saw, the group of officials in Jiangnan deliberately suppressed the grain silver and grain, and then caused the grain prices to rise in the northern area to first ask merchants to go north to sell grain, and then the grain prices were stabilized in the north to transport grain?"
"It should be so, but the matter of grain cannot be easily moved." Zhu Youjian was afraid that the good brother would be the leader, so he asked someone to investigate the case and continued:
"At present, many parties such as Qi, Chu, Zhejiang, Xuankun are showing off their articles on food and seeking personal gain."
"My thought is that the Liao incident is in chaos. First control the Liao incident, use Sichuan soldiers and Zhejiang soldiers to guard the Liao Shen cities, and then disarmament a little bit to control the situation in Liaodong."
"As for Liao Xiang, in order to avoid deductions, the two armies will be issued after they arrive at Liao Shen and disarmament."
"In order to prevent the Liao people from continuing to go north to surrender, they should buy grain from Sichuan, Huguang and other places and sell it through sea transportation to Liaodong."
"This..." Hearing that he was going to take the shipping route, Zhu Youxiao immediately frowned:
"As my brother said, if you go to sea transportation, you will naturally be embarrassed by all officials. If this order is issued, it will probably be rejected immediately by the cabinet and the six departments."
Zhu Youxiao was very helpless. During the period when Zhu Youjian left, he could only find Keshi and Wei Zhongxian. These two people had no real talent and could only help him relieve his emotions, but could not come up with a good solution.
Now that Zhu Youjian is back, he also starts to complain.
First of all, many of his imperial edicts were rejected by the cabinet and the six departments, one of which was the imperial edict that wanted Qi Yuanfu to lead his troops to escort Caoyin to the north.
Therefore, he could only sigh at Zhu Youjian's idea of shipping on the sea.
However, Zhu Youjian had long had an idea of how to travel to sea and stabilize the grain in Liaodong:
"Brother, don't worry. I already have an idea about how to get there by sea. I just need my brother's help."
"Oh? Let's talk." Hearing this, Zhu Youxiao was also energetic and wanted to know what good methods Zhu Youjian had, and Zhu Youjian also said slowly:
Chapter completed!
