Chapter 75: Restoration of People's Livelihood

After Zhu Biao finished speaking, he looked at the three brothers. Seeing that they breathed a relieved sigh of relief, he shook his head in amusement.

After all, he is still a child and has never tasted the feeling of being in charge of a local government.

The second child said: "Then I'm relieved. Brother, you have to hurry up! I don't worry about myself."

The third child said: "I don't want to go, but if I really want to go, I should stay closer to Nanjing.

The fourth child said: "Brother, I want to guard the border!"

Zhu Biao said with a smile: "You still don't know where to exercise restraint and how happy you are to have the power in your hands. I guess you won't want to let it go by then.

The three brothers looked at each other and said, "We always listen to our eldest brother."

Zhu Biao looked at his brothers tenderly and said, "Don't worry, the world is big and my eldest brother will not treat you badly!"

Zhu Biao left his three brothers to have a bite of food and told them to rest for a day tomorrow and then go to the army for training the day after tomorrow.

After they left, Zhu Biao sighed, feeling a little empty for some reason.

Zhu Biao glanced at Liu Jin next to him and asked, "How is Li Qi?"

Liu Jin took a step forward and said: "It looks very miserable, but judging from the extent of the injury, it's just a skin injury."

Zhu Biao laughed and said: "It's just a show. If it is really broken, I will have to be careful about Li Shanchang!"

Liu Jin glanced at the sky and said, "Sir, it's getting cold and you should go inside."

Zhu Biao nodded and went back to the room. Since he had just slept, he asked someone to light a candle and deal with the report that Lan Yu had sent today.

The next morning, after Zhu Biao woke up, he vaguely heard the sound coming from the outer hall. Zhu Biao sat up and Yun Jin, who had been guarding him, heard the sound and walked in.

First, he poured a glass of warm water and handed it to Zhu Biao, then picked up the bottle from the side. Zhu Biao gargled and spit out the water, and then Yun Jin helped him put on his underwear.

Zhu Biao asked: "What are you doing in the outhouse?"

Yun Jin explained: "The Ministry of Industry has sent your armor, and they are looking at it!"

Zhu Biao's eyes lit up. A few days ago, someone from the Ministry of Industry came to measure his waist size and said they wanted to make armor specially for him.

Zhu Biao was naturally very interested in armor. He hurriedly put on his shoes and walked out without even wearing a coat.

When I arrived at the main hall, I saw two sets of armor, one silver and one bright yellow!

Everyone looked at Zhu Biao and hurriedly greeted him: "See you, Your Highness, Your Highness Qianqiu."

Zhu Biao said with a smile: "Get up, why are there two sets?"

The minister from the Ministry of Industry stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, the gold armor is what you wore when you swore an oath to go to war and when you returned in triumph, and the silver armor is what you wear on the battlefield."

Zhu Biao nodded. Ming Dynasty's armor is mainly silver-white. The bright yellow is too shiny. If it is worn on the battlefield, it will be a clear mockery of the enemy. If you are not blind, you will all shoot arrows at it!

Zhu Biao touched the cold armor and said, "Apart from the color, these two sets are exactly the same?

The Minister of Works returned: "The style is the same. In order to reduce the burden on His Highness, the gold armor uses less materials and is lighter, and more attention is paid to polishing the details!"

The silver armor was made by the best armorer in the Ming Dynasty. It is made of real materials. As long as His Highness is dressed neatly, the arrows on the battlefield will never be able to break through this layer of armor!

Zhu Biao took the photo of gold armor, which is gold-plated iron armor, just to show the noble look.

Zhu Biao held up the helmet, and the waiter on the side said: "This is a gold-plated phoenix-winged helmet. The front of the helmet is decorated with a statue of a god. There is a fire-breathing golden dragon on the left and right. The dragon's body spreads its wings and looks like a phoenix's wings.

Zhu Biao nodded and looked at the armor. The armor was covered with fish scale-like armor plates arranged in layers, with a golden rising dragon on each side of the chest.

The upper body, collar, shoulders, and bottom are all edged with red woven gold cloud and dragon patterns, and the bottom edge is wider. Both shoulders are gold animal head-shaped shoulder armor, embellished with red shoulder tassels.

There are four nail-shaped gilt copper belt eyes in the middle of the belt body, and three gilt copper round belt plates on each side. There is a square hanging buckle underneath, which can be used to hang bow bags, quivers, sabers and other weapons.

The two ends of the belt are decorated with a pair of gilt copper belts, shaped like leather belt "tart tails", both are engraved with dragon patterns, and there is a hook at one end.

Zhu Biao felt a little dizzy after hearing this. He glanced at Liu Jin and saw him nodding. Zhu Biao smiled and asked the name of the official from the Ministry of Industry, and then asked him to leave.

After all, the reason why people waited here so early in the morning was to leave a good impression in front of him.

After he retreated, Liu Jin stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, would you like to try it? The slaves have already learned how to wear armor."

Zhu Biao said, let's try it. It sounds easy to say, but wearing armor is really not that easy. Without anyone's help, I'm afraid I won't be able to put it on by myself.

Zhu Biao is wearing golden armor. Of course, it is said to be golden armor, but in fact it is more red in color, but the gold color is more eye-catching at first glance.

At this time, Chang Yuchun and others happened to arrive. When they entered the main hall, they saw the majestic Crown Prince in golden armor.

Chang Yuchun smiled and said: "His Royal Highness puts on the armor and looks so heroic. He is worthy of being my general tomorrow!"

Lan Yu and others bowed their heads and shouted: "See General Tiance!"

When Yun Jin Nuanyu and others saw this scene, they were about to shed tears. Fortunately, Liu Jin reminded them that it was time to prepare tea, so they reluctantly continued.

Zhu Biao also laughed a few times with satisfaction: "Everyone, get up. The Ministry of Works sent two sets of armor this morning. I just want to try them out."

Zhu Biao moved his body, and he felt a little inflexible indeed. Even with the golden armor, he felt a little heavy, but he did feel a strong sense of security.

Seeing that Zhu Biao was already dressed, Chang Yuchun said: "There is actually nothing urgent to do today. Since Your Highness has put on armor, why not go to the camp outside the city for inspection and let the soldiers see the strategy?"

The majesty of an admiral!"

Zhu Biao nodded and said, "Okay, let's go and have a look."

The group of people left the city directly, and Zhu Biao took a tour of the city along the way. Nanjing was much more prosperous than in previous years, with the sounds of buying and selling, shouting, and bargaining on the streets. In the hotel, the waiter was carrying wine and food.

We shuttled quickly, and the sound of guessing could be heard from time to time.

There are rows of buildings on both sides, including teahouses, wine shops, foot shops, butcher shops, temples, public houses, etc.

The shop specializes in silk and satin, jewelry and spices, incense, paper horses, etc. In addition, there are medical clinics, cart repairs, fortune telling, face shaping and plastic surgery, and all kinds of services.

Market flags are hung to attract business, and pedestrians in the market are crowded one after another. There is a constant flow. There are merchants doing business, there are books reading about the street scene, there are hawkers, there are family members riding in sedans, there are walking monks wearing backpacks, and there are people asking questions.

Among the foreign tourists on the road, there are children in the streets who listen and read, children from wealthy families who drink heavily in restaurants, disabled old people begging on the edge of the city, men, women, old and young, scholars, farmers, industry and merchants, all three religions and nine streams, they are all prepared.

The splendid sunshine shines in the green tiles and red walls everywhere, the abrupt cornices, the high-flying shop sign flags, the sparkling cars and horses, the endless flow of pedestrians, the

The calm and contented smiling faces all reflect that the people of the Ming Dynasty are no longer the fourth-class Han people of the Yuan Dynasty.
