The rise of the poor

Chapter 1293 Men are big pigs' hoofs
"The observation port should be narrow on the inside and wide on the outside, slanted to the left or right or downward, and not directly facing the front. This is not only convenient for archery defense, but also easy for observation. It can also prevent Japanese pirates and other enemies from hurting people with bows and arrows."

"On the second floor of the sentinel fortress and on the gate of the fort gate, bamboo tubes with thick and thin bowls are placed. If there are Japanese pirates attacking the fort, they can use the bamboo tubes to pour gold juice and boiling water, so that Japanese bandits cannot approach the fort gate or climb up. Climb the fort wall. In case of Japanese pirates attacking by fire, you can also use bamboo tubes to water the fire.”

"Do not set up windows on the corridor of the sentinel. Windows can only be set up on the second floor, and they should be as narrow as possible."

"The fort gates should have two floors. Even if the first floor is breached, there will still be another defense."

"The wall of the sentry fort must be thick enough, and the layout must be careful not to leave any dead corners, so as not to be taken advantage of by the enemy."

In the morning, Zhu Pingan took Liu Mu and others and more than a dozen guards to inspect the construction of the anti-Japanese sentry forts, and put forward opinions from time to time.

Zhu Pingan planned a total of 150 anti-Japanese sentry forts in Jingnan, of which 28 anti-Japanese sentry forts were set up along the coast. There are 120 anti-Japanese outposts set up in the places where Japanese pirates must pass through and where they are easy to be invaded by Japanese pirates. These anti-Japanese outposts focus on defense and have a large area. Each post can accommodate more than [-] people. Wells were dug inside, and when Japanese pirates invaded, nearby villages could take refuge in the anti-Japanese sentry fort.

The time when the Japanese plague is at its peak is approaching. For more than ten years, there will never be a peaceful day along the southeast coast, and people will be devastated.
With these anti-Japanese forts, even if the Japanese pirates are rampant, the people in Jingnan can retain their vitality.

Zhu Pingan felt a little relieved when he saw the anti-Japanese fortresses rising from the ground one by one.

"Report to the county, the imperial envoy from the capital is here."

When Zhu Pingan was inspecting Zhang Duo's anti-Japanese fort, a guard arrived on a fast horse, got off his horse and reported.

The imperial envoy from the capital is here? !

Hearing this, Zhu Pingan couldn't help being excited. The last time the imperial envoy came to check his corruption case, he returned to Beijing more than ten days ago to return to his mission. Counting the time, it should be time for the result.

Come to think of it, today is another harvest season.I just don't know if I can meet my expectations.

Xu Hai, Zhang Guyi, don't let me down.

"Okay, I see." Zhu Pingan nodded to the messenger who reported the letter, then turned his head and said to the accompanying Li Dianli and others, "Liu Dianli, you follow me back to the county office, and prepare to receive orders and other matters; Li Dianli You go separately to inspect the construction of the anti-Japanese fort, the points I mentioned just now must be integrated into the construction of the anti-Japanese fort, defense and vigilance are the core of the construction of the anti-Japanese fort, you must pay attention to it."

Dianli Liu is old man Liu from Baqiao Village. Although he is rather old-fashioned, he is proficient in all kinds of etiquette, so Zhu Pingan took Dianli Liu back to the county government office to meet the imperial envoy.

"Don't worry, the county lord, we will live up to the entrustment of the county lord." Li Dianli and others said with their hands clapped.

After the arrangements were made, Zhu Pingan took Liu Dianli, Liu Mu and others back to the Jingnan County Yamen at full speed.

The imperial envoys from the capital were three young eunuchs and a group of Dongchang fans, and there was no one Zhu Pingan knew.

"The superior is here, and the lower official has something to wish, please forgive me." Zhu Pingan stepped forward and cupped his hands to apologize.

"Master Xiao Zhu, you are being polite. Master Xiao Zhu is guilty of fighting the flood and providing disaster relief. Before the miscellaneous family came, Duke Huang had explained that he must not cause trouble for Master Zhu, and affect the overall situation of Lord Zhu fighting the flood and disaster relief."

The leading eunuch returned the courtesy with a smile, and was very polite to Zhu Pingan, without arrogance at all.

"The miscellaneous family has brought the Holy Majesty's oral order and reward this time, and please ask Master Xiao Zhu to take a bath and change clothes, and prepare to receive the order."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the leading eunuch said.Zhu Ping'an was inspecting the construction site of the anti-Japanese sentry just now. He was covered in dust and was really not suitable for receiving orders. He had to take a bath and change clothes to show his respect for Emperor Jiajing.

"I have to wait for a while." Zhu Pingan cupped his hands and asked the little eunuch and Dongchang fans to rest in the side hall.

"Master Zhu, please." The leading eunuch nodded, and was led by Dianli Liu to the side hall for a rest.

Zhu Pingan quickly went to the backyard of the county government office to take a bath and change clothes. Hua'er and the witch Ruonan had already received the letter, and they had already prepared the bath water and changing official uniforms. Zhu Pingan quickly took a warm bath, and Hua'er served him Changed into a clean official uniform, put on a black gauze hat, and quickly returned to the front yard of the county yamen.

"You look like a dog." The witch Ruonan Yimen looked at Zhu Ping'an's back and twitched the corners of her mouth.

"Guye is handsome." Hua'er emphasized.

"I can't find it in the crowd, and I can't see how handsome it is." The demon girl Ruonan rolled her eyes.

Zhu Ping'an returned to the Qianya, and people opened the door of the ceremony, and began to receive orders.According to the process of receiving the decree, Zhu Pingan led the people of the county government to kneel outside the gate of the ceremony, and the eunuch and his party entered from the gate of the ceremony to announce the decree in the lobby of the county government.

The incense table, incense candles and other objects have already been arranged by Liu Dianli in the lobby of the county yamen according to the etiquette.

"Lord Zhu, accept the order." The leading eunuch said.

"The minister Zhejiang mentioned the punishment according to the procuratorial envoy Si Qian's affairs, and Zhu Ping'an, the magistrate of Jingnan County, received the order. Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

Zhu Pingan knelt down to receive the imperial edict.

"The sage said: Zhu boy, you have made great contributions in fighting floods and disaster relief. You are capable and honest. Be proud and relaxed, be an official, and continue to do more practical things for me, Ming."

The leading eunuch silently recited the Jiajing Emperor's words.

Reward two things? !which two things? !But don't let me down, Zhu Pingan thought.

"Your Majesty bestows a unicorn robe." The leading eunuch continued after silently reciting Emperor Jiajing's oral instructions.

Qilin robes are conferred clothes, which also belong to official court clothes, but they are not the standard clothing of civil and military officials. You can not wear them if you want to, but you can only wear them if they are bestowed by the emperor. This was the highest honor for officials in ancient times.The emperor bestows on his subjects, usually the first-rank python clothes, the second-rank flying fish, the third-rank bullfighting, the fourth-rank and fifth-rank Kirin, and the sixth-rank and seventh-rank tiger and buffalo.The emperor refused to confer easily, and only officials who made great contributions could be conferred by the emperor.

A little eunuch took out a unicorn robe from behind and gave it to the leading little eunuch with both hands, and the leading little eunuch gave Zhu Ping'an both hands.Zhu Pingan took it with both hands, and respectfully put the Qilin robe on the incense table.

This is a royal gift. Zhu Pingan glanced at it excitedly, and then couldn't help but look black.

Since the unicorn suit is folded, only the top pattern can be seen - a pair of big pig's hooves.

The unicorn suit has no claws, and all four feet are big pig's hooves.
If I put on this suit, if someone scolds me, "Men are big pigs", I can't even refute it.
