The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

When I wake up the next day.

Xu Miaojin felt limp all over, without any strength.

In fact, going to bed before marriage like this is already against the contemporary secular morality, but if Zhu Ying is the grandson of the emperor, this is a bit different.

There is no need to go to the early morning morning.

Isn't the old man here anyway?

In the court.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the courtiers in Fengtian Palace, and was a little speechless in his heart.

If I thought about this for myself, I shouldn't have to care much about the morning affairs in the future.

It was agreed to leave it to Dasun to do it, but in the end it turned around or it ended up on my own head.

Fortunately, Zhu Yuanzhang was quite satisfied with the situation last night. After all, it was because of the opening of the old Zhu's family, and he was more able to figure it out.

I have more than 20 sons, the ability of my eldest grandson seems to be much stronger than myself, and now I am only in my early twenties, so I can't have more than a hundred sons?

Thinking that he might have hundreds of great-grandchildren, the corners of Zhu Yuanzhang's mouth could not help but slightly curl up.

The ministers below looked at it, and immediately knew that today's morning was better.

Your Majesty is in a pretty good mood today.

Today's morning court is not as cumbersome as it used to be. Basically, it is enough to report and summarize the latest situation in various places.

The only thing that needs to be discussed is the big stuff.

Morning is now almost a regular meeting.

Zhu Yuanzhang now thinks that he may not need to open it every day.

Or change it to open once in a few days in the future?
This is not to say that Zhu Yuanzhang is not diligent, but he found that there seems to be nothing wrong in the early court today.

Slightly major matters can basically be dealt with after discussing with a few ministers in the Huagai Palace.

Just like today, before half an hour, it was almost cold in the morning.

Because everyone doesn't know what to say.

The daily work reports and summaries are also handed in for review every seven days. According to the current rules, there is no need for a separate report in the court for some minor aspects.

Just perform their duties, and the work efficiency is much higher than before.

For example, at the Ministry of Criminal Justice, each case will be classified according to the situation.

There is a time limit for completion and archiving of detailed evidence.

If it is not completed within the stipulated time, then it must be submitted to the third division for trial to determine the reason.

Is it a problem with the Ministry of Criminal Justice, or is the case more difficult.

With this rule in place, any official who wants to develop his official career must pay attention to efficiency.

The Ministry of Officials also has strict restrictions on the daily work of officials.

The qualifications are not enough, the work efficiency is not enough, but there is no way to complete the promotion, and there is no chance to be a substitute.

The entire Ming Dynasty's officialdom has now begun to turn inward.

And if the work efficiency is not up to standard for a long time, the Ministry of officials will also conduct an assessment.

In the case of failing the assessment, a demotion will generally be carried out.

Even the Minister of the Ministry of Officials no longer has the ability to leapfrog promotion. Even if there are particularly outstanding talents, the power of exceptional promotion is in the hands of the emperor himself.

Once the illegal operation is discovered, the last time is to be demoted, and even if the rank is high, they will be directly demoted to common people and exempted from official status.

These days, it is no longer a matter of simply recommending to become an official, or that one can steadily move forward after obtaining fame.

The establishment of rules and regulations by various departments also made it easier for the emperor himself.

Based on such circumstances, Zhu Yuanzhang also felt that there was no need to open the early court every day.

"Starting today, without our decree, the morning court will be changed to once every two days."

"Thank you, Your Majesty Ron."

Zhu Yuanzhang is still more rigorous, and did not directly change it to once every three days or more, but first set a morning court once every two days.

In this way, at least every morning, I can have something to say.

It's not like today, after a set of procedures and ceremonies are completed, there is nothing to say after a piecemeal report.

The ministers were also extremely excited.

If they don't have to rush to the morning, they will be able to sleep a little longer in the morning.

Especially in this cold winter, who doesn't want to lie in a warm bed for a while.

After the dispersal.

Xu Zengshou, the governor of the right army and the governor of the left, was preparing to go home.

When he went out, His Royal Highness hadn't woken up yet, so he had to go back quickly to take care of him.

"Captain Xu, please stay."

As soon as he stepped out of the palace gate, the voice of the eunuch Liu He, who was in charge of the official seal, came from the side.

"Eunuch Liu, what's the matter?"

Xu Zengshou asked with a smile.

Liu He also said with a smile; "Your Majesty summoned Dudu Xu to the apse for questioning, and asked Dudu Xu to accompany our family to meet His Majesty."

Xu Zengshou smiled happily, of course he knew why His Majesty was looking for him.

It must have a lot to do with my little sister.

"Minister Xu Zengshou, pay homage to Your Majesty."

"Be flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Xu Zengshou in front of him and asked, "We heard that the eldest grandson slept in the Zhongshan Palace yesterday?"

Xu Zengshou hurriedly said, "Yesterday, His Royal Highness Grandson and younger sister Xu Miaojin went to the mansion for a dinner. During the dinner, they drank two more glasses, so they rested in the mansion."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, he naturally understood the basic situation.

He said: "Xu Miaojin is a good child, we have actually discussed with Concubine Ning before, and we want her to come into the palace."

"The current situation is not bad. In the future, a noble concubine will be indispensable. After all, she is Xu Da's daughter, so it is impossible for us to say that we have treated her badly."

Xu Zengshou hurriedly said: "It is my little sister's blessing to be favored by His Highness the Grandson."

"Your Majesty doesn't know something. My little sister has always kept it in her heart after meeting His Highness the Grandson many years ago. In the past two years, even at the age of leaving the cabinet, no one has ever seen her."

"Now it's finally fulfilled, and this elder brother, Chen, can be regarded as an end to one of his worries."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly after listening.

After pondering for a while, he said: "You have been in the capital for many years, but do you have any idea to go out and experience yourself?"

When Xu Zengshou heard this, he was overjoyed.

Said: "I listen to your Majesty's orders."

Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while and said, "We remember that you have a good relationship with the fourth child. He will be back soon, and he will probably go to Japan after the year."

"When the time comes, you should go with him."

Xu Zengshou did not expect His Majesty to give such a good job.

You must know that the current military generals want to go to the country of Wa most. This small country that everyone once thought was worthless has now become the biggest favorite.

The reason here is also very simple. Nowadays, the Japanese country has to ship a large amount of silver to Daming every quarter by sea.

There is plenty of oil and water in it for this job.

Those who have a little bit of knowledge will understand that the Wa Kingdom will not lack opportunities to earn credit in the future. A small country is not qualified to sit on mountains of gold and silver.

In the future, to pacify the Wa country, there will be rewards for meritorious deeds.

With credit and plenty of oil and water, it can be said to be the best job.

"Thank you, Your Majesty Ron."

Xu Zengshou kowtowed immediately.

"This great Ming capital is really completely different every time I come back."

"That eldest nephew of this king really has great abilities, but this king never imagined that he could develop to such a grand scale."

Under the Zhengyang Gate, Zhu Di finally returned to the capital after a long journey with his two sons and his entourage of trusted generals.

After Zhu Di was captured on the grassland, he was released soon because of the peace talks between Zhu Ying and Eleboke.

But Zhu Ying left without waiting for Zhu Di to be released.

Although he was a prisoner, because of Zhu Yuanzhang's earlier relationship, and because Zhu Di and Erebek were familiar, he naturally didn't say what he had suffered.

Starting from being a prisoner, he has always enjoyed the treatment of a prince, that is, he does not have so much freedom of movement.

Afterwards, the entire Beiyuan had negotiated cooperation with Daming, especially the establishment of the Beiyuan Employment Guild, which meant that there would not be any wars on the grassland in recent years.

At most, it's just some minor disputes.

According to Zhu Di's temperament, there is no point in staying in the grassland any longer.

And here in the capital, Zhu Ying also agreed about his going to the country of Wa.

Before coming to the capital, Zhu Di made a special trip to the Peking Palace.

It used to be his domain.

It's changed now.

Since Zhu Ying made a decision about the overseas feudal lands, it means that all the feudal kings no longer have feudal lands, and all the palaces have been recycled.

Zhu Di's Peking Palace is no exception.

Beiping is currently engaged in construction, which is to prepare for the future capital of the Ming Dynasty, and the Wangfu is naturally within the scope of renovation.

This made Zhu Di sigh a bit.

The biggest sigh is Nanjing City.

Almost unrecognizable.

"It's so prosperous, it feels like I haven't been back for many years."

"There are too many people here. At a glance, they are all people. The alley over there is densely packed with people. I don't know how to get in."

Zhu Di's two sons, Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui, sighed and said in turn.

This is probably similar to how a countryman feels when he enters the city.

Because of the prosperity of the sea trade, coupled with the daily needs of the nearly 300 million people in the capital of the Ming Dynasty, and as the capital, most of the people here are well-off.

Here in the capital, with such a huge population, it is very profitable to do any small business, which leads to the pockets of the people in the capital are full of money.

Therefore, a large number of foreign businessmen will come to the capital to do business.

In Nanjing, which is close to the Yangtze River, seagoing ships can almost sail directly to Zhengyangmen Wharf.

But it is precisely because there are too many ships, it is not that simple to sail over.

There are currently very high requirements for the management and restrictions of ships, and ordinary ships are not qualified to dock here at all.

Just one qualification for docking is already an extremely high price.

And as long as the tributaries entering Nanjing are charged on a daily basis, this alone has created a lot of benefits for the capital.

Zhu Di's return to Beijing also means that there will only be two days before the end of the year.

This year is an extremely lively year for Zhu Yuanzhang.

Not only Zhu Di, but because of the birth of the emperor's grandson, all the vassal kings returned with Zhu Yuanzhang's permission.

Originally, Zhu Yunqi was ready to occupy the city years ago, but now he is waiting for this year to end before setting off.

But for the entire capital, it was even more lively.

"This year is a rare reunion year."

In the past two days, Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy to hear the news of each son's return to the palace.

When you are older, you are naturally enjoying yourself.

As a royal family, reunion for the Chinese New Year is actually a difficult topic.

Especially in the past few years, since the vassal kings became vassals, it was impossible to come back casually, and Zhu Yuanzhang also needed these sons of his to sit on the frontier.

To a certain extent, if there is no accident, it is very likely that some sons will find it difficult to say that they will see each other again.

Now because of the relationship between the great grandson, the situation has changed a lot.

The threat of the grassland was lifted, and Bei Yuan, whom he was afraid of, had also negotiated peace. Naturally, there was no need for so many princes to guard it.

On the inland side, because of the cancellation of the feudal relationship of the vassal kings, they returned to the capital one after another.

This year, the upcoming 29th year of Hongwu, can be described as a family reunion.

And with the continuous return of the princes, the palace has become much more lively.

In the palace, which was relatively quiet in the past, now there is a feeling that there are people everywhere.

However, for the princes, it is more frustrating that there is no place to live. Fortunately, the vassal king basically has a rewarding mansion in the capital.

Even those who don't have mansions can only live in the palace temporarily.

This day is the first day of the first month of the 29th year of Hongwu.

Zhu Yuanzhang held a grand court meeting.

This court meeting started with various ministers' recollections of some events in the 28th year of Hongwu.

Tell about the changes in the entire Ming Dynasty last year.

It is also to let more people, the prosperity of Daming today.

These will also be published in the Jingshi Mansion Newspaper for distribution afterwards.

The Fengtian Hall alone in the Grand Court Meeting is completely unable to stay, and the officials have already lined up here in Fengtian Square.

The main reason is that the princes have all come back. Except for some who are guarding outside the war, most of the generals have also come back this year.

There are also officials from all over the country who come to the capital for an annual report.

The number of people in the Great Court Meeting has reached an unprecedented scale, more than 3000 people.

Fortunately, the current Daming treasury is full, otherwise, it is not known whether it can afford this banquet.

On today's Great Court Meeting, the Wa country can be said to have become the hottest place.

Many officials regretted very much in their hearts, why they didn't choose to go to Wa country at the beginning.

There is not only an open space to display your ambitions, but also a lot of oil and water.

For example, Jin Wang Zhu Yan, Qi Wang Zhu Yu, and Yan Wang Shizi Zhu Gaochi who came back together, can be said to have become the stars of this grand court.

Many officials are even more concerned, and they will go to Japan to work for a few years to see if they can get online during the first month of the month.
