The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Zhu Yuanzhang stroked the beard on his chin and was very satisfied with Sun's plan.

Just listening to it makes it clear that Da Sun can completely dominate the overall situation.

This kind of overall thinking is very important for the emperor.

One general is incompetent, exhausting thousands of troops.

If the emperor is incompetent, it will be a great disaster for the country.

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't see too far, but at least he knew that within a few decades after he left, the great grandson would definitely be able to bring the Ming Dynasty to greater heights.

Compared with Qin Huang and Han Wu, he is not inferior.

"Just follow the arrangements that Dasun just said."

"The minister obeys the order."

Under the instructions from Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, several ministers slowly retreated and left the hall.

Their work begins now.

After leaving the Qianqing Palace, the expressions of several ministers relaxed a little.

"My grandson is really. It's better for me to wait. I thought we would have to discuss it for at least half an hour. Unexpectedly, my grandson has already fully arranged everything that we have thought about and have never thought about. Sometimes I feel that I This minister is so useless."

Rujun, Minister of the Ministry of War, sighed and said that he was an academic master himself. When he was 16 years old, he was selected by the Gongsheng students to study in the Imperial College.

It can be said that he got involved in officialdom and government affairs early.

However, these strategies of His Highness Taisun are even more shocking than the previous reforms of the official system and the military system.

"Who says it's not? The grandson is well versed in the way of governing from the bottom up. It seems that he has let go of the power, but in fact he is letting us do our best, and the grandson will lead the overall situation."

"Don't talk too much, everyone, just follow your grandson's instructions."

"Tonight, I have to be very busy." Zhan Hui, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, said, and then walked forward at a faster pace.

Several other Shangshu showed disdain.

As for Zhan Hui, he is always good at flattering him.

In the past, I used to flatter His Majesty, but now I am the grandson, and there is no sloppiness at all, and he is extremely smooth.

But Zhan Hui is right, now is a critical moment.

The speed of several people increased.

In the Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile: "The arrangement of Dasun is really good, even if we do it, it can't be better than Dasun's."

"That old boy Zhan Hui is right. Having his grandson here is indeed a blessing for the people."

Zhu Yuanzhang also came from a lower-class background, and of course he knew how important the arrangements made by his grandson just now were to the people affected by the disaster in Henan.

However, this is also based on the current situation that the Ming Dynasty's treasury is abundant.

When disasters occurred in the past few years, it was not that the court had no means, but that a clever woman could not make a meal without rice and could not use her strength.

"Grandpa is so impressed. No matter how good the plan is, it must be implemented by reliable people."

"Although I have repeatedly stated that I will prevent officials and businessmen from making such shady fortunes, I estimate that many people will take risks and secretly reach out."

"It is said that there are policies from above and countermeasures from below. All the intelligence and energy of these people have been used in crooked ways."

"In addition to normal officials, Jin Yiwei must be dispatched to monitor secretly. Only then can the plan be truly implemented."

After Zhu Ying finished speaking, she felt a little thirsty, so she picked up the teacup on the table and drank it all in one gulp.

After all, he had only exercised vigorously not long ago.

"The night is getting a little late, and we are a little tired. After hearing Dasun's arrangement, we feel a lot more at ease."

"You are still young. We can't compare with you. This matter is important, so you can preside over it."

Zhu Yuanzhang yawned. He is now focusing on health preservation.

The imperial doctor from the imperial hospital who specializes in health care came up with a solution.

Zhu Yuanzhang still wants to live a few more years to see what changes will happen to Daming in the hands of his grandson. Now he often takes care of his children and is not so obsessed with government affairs.

He knew Da Sun could handle it.

"Grandpa, go and have a rest. My grandson can take care of the rest."

Zhu Ying nodded and replied.

Zhu Yuanzhang got up and went to the palace, asking his eldest grandson to do things in Qianqing Palace today.

The meaning of this is to allow Da Sun to exercise the power of the emperor.

Zhu Ying was sitting in the main hall working.

The next step is to have someone call the editor of the Di Baosi.

Publish the extent of the damage caused by the flood in Henan in the Capital Newspaper.

Now the printing of Di Newspaper Company is very perfect.

Using copper plate ink, the printing speed is not only fast, but also convenient.

Nowadays, printing still uses manual hand-cranking. After the manuscript is written by the newspaper company, the printing company typeset the mold.

The font of the mold is in the form of a roller. When the paper is pushed over, the roller shakes and is printed directly on it. It is finished after it dries slightly.

The steam engine was invented not long ago, but it is expected that the speed of printing will be greatly accelerated later when steam power is supplied.

"Your Majesty, Yuan Jiachi, pays homage to His Highness the Grand Sun."

Yuan Jiachi was a diner who once went to Zhu Fan's residence. Later, Zhu Ying took a fancy to his talent and established the residence newspaper department, so he was put in charge of the capital's residence newspaper department.

"You came here on your own." Zhu Ying asked.

Due to a special relationship, the Di Newspaper Department works on a twelve-hour shift system. According to the calculation of later generations, get off work ends at four o'clock in the afternoon.

It's already nine o'clock in the evening.

"I heard the urgent news coming from eight hundred miles away from the city. I thought something big had happened, so I rushed to the Yamen to wait for the summons." Yuan Jiachi replied.

Zhu Ying nodded: "I'm determined."

"This is about the flood in Henan. The disaster affected thousands of miles, and nearly a million people were displaced. I don't know how many lives were taken away by the flood."

"As for the details of this catastrophe, you can go to the Ministry of War to inquire about the details. Write the article as soon as possible and try to publish it tomorrow."

"By the way, the recorder I asked you to prepare earlier has already been prepared."

The recorder was prepared by Zhu Ying and Yuan Jiachi, similar to reporters of later generations.

The first group of record keepers in the capital were given special treatment as ninth graders as a special exception. This was also to enable the record keepers group to develop better.

Don't take the village chief as a cadre.

Although the ninth rank is the lowest rank for officials, it still belongs to officials.

As for the officials below the officials, ordinary people have to call them "master" when they meet them. Once they are registered as officials, they are the real masters.

That is to say, this first batch of record-keepers in the future will naturally be officials.

"Reporting to Your Highness, we have already made preparations. There are 17 record-keepers in the Residence Reporting Department, all at your Highness's command," Yuan Jiachi replied.

Zhu Ying ordered: "If this is the case, then send them all to Henan."

"Youdao believes that what you hear is false and what you see is belief. Let them record what they saw in detail, and then return to the capital to compile it into a document and publish it in the Di Bao."

"In the Henan flood incident, not only will there be heartfelt help and help, but there will also be corrupt officials who will make ill-gotten gains from it. Please help me tell them that they must always stick to the beliefs in their hearts and not be blinded by the temptations in front of them."

"Those treacherous ministers whose good deeds have been exposed are no longer officials of our Ming Dynasty. They are evil wolves in sheep's clothing, lying on the bodies of the people, knocking bones and sucking marrow. I hope they will not forget their original intentions and resolutely draw a clear line with the evil forces."

"Only in this way can they be worthy of the imperial court, worthy of the common people, and worthy of my expectations and cultivation of them."

Yuan Jiachi was shocked when he heard this.

These words made him feel suddenly awakened.

Only by not forgetting your original intention can you achieve success.It sounds simple, but when faced with all kinds of temptations, who can definitely hold it back?

Not everyone can be as calm as Liu Xiahui.

Yuan Jiachi felt it deeply. Over the years, as the editor-in-chief of the Di Newspaper Division, he had been in charge of the court's mouth, and many of them had been giving him benefits overtly or covertly.

Even if they refuse sternly, those people will still come in different ways, making people unprepared for them.

His rank is not very high, but even the ministers of the imperial court would give him and the Di Reporter three points of praise.

There are really too many things to pay attention to in this article.

With a little guidance, it might be a different sense.

In some respects, even Yuan Jiachi couldn't stand it.

After all, he is still a hot-blooded man.

Money can be discarded, but beauty can.

In fact, this kind of situation is very common in the entire Ming Dynasty's officialdom, and his little thing is not a big deal.

Zhu Ying also knew it.

Zhu Ying's emphasis on Di Bao has never allowed Zhu Ying to trust someone completely.

Therefore, of course there was a secret arrangement in the Di newspaper department.

Are you kidding me to be a royal guard supervising hundreds of officials?

Although it is not as exaggerated as day and night surveillance, it can basically control the movements.

"The minister made a mistake, and I am ashamed of His Highness."

Yuan Jiachi suddenly realized that it was His Highness Taisun who was beating him at the same time.

Seeing that Yuan Jiachi had understood, Zhu Ying smiled and said: "Since ancient times, there are no sages who can make no mistakes. If they know their mistakes, they can improve."

"As an official, you must always remember your bottom line. The interests of the court and the interests of the people are inviolable. If you make one wrong step, you will fall into the abyss, and there will be no cure."

Yuan Jiachi hurriedly bowed and said: "I sincerely follow the teachings of His Highness the Grand Sun, and I must keep them in mind at all times."

Zhu Ying nodded slightly: "Okay, it's getting late, let's go."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Yuan Jiachi bowed and left.

The matter in Henan has been settled for the time being.

Natural disasters are ruthless and manpower is weak.

Especially in today's era, it's hard to start when it comes to fighting.

Floods and earthquakes will still be inevitable in future generations. People now have no choice but to pray for God's blessing.

If the body dies, this is how it should be.

"By the way, you have someone send a message to the Liyuan. The matter of Xiaoyu entering the palace tomorrow will be put on hold for the time being."

Zhu Ying ordered Guo Zhong next to him.

"Yes, Your Highness." Guo Zhong replied respectfully.

Zhu Ying thought for a while and explained: "Explain to her that the flood in Henan has spread to almost the entire territory, and hundreds of people have been affected. This is not the day to enter the palace. We will arrange this matter after the disaster has passed."

"Old slave, I understand." Guo Zhong responded with a slight movement in his eyes.

Based on his previous words, he thought Taisun was no longer interested in the actor.

It was also when Zhu Ying was running smuggling and dealing with corrupt officials, she knew best that these people like to speculate on what is true and what is false.

If I just put it aside, I would think that I have fallen out of favor.

Actors are lowly in today's society, and many people feel a sense of disbelief.

But Zhu Ying didn't. After all, in later generations, these so-called lowly actors would be stars.

And Zhu Ying also knew that with the development of the Ming Dynasty's economy, while the material foundation was satisfied, spiritual food became more and more important, and the status of these actors would slowly rise.

The Eight Beauties of Qinhuai in the late Ming Dynasty were said to be of low status, but in fact their status was no longer comparable to that of ordinary people.

Maybe he knew that his grandson had not rested yet.

The Ministry of War sent information about Tubo again.

In fact, the two pieces of information arrived at the post station outside the capital at about the same time.

However, when encountering an emergency at eight hundred miles, other letters must give way to him.

What Xu Huizu sent was not an urgent message, but as long as the transmission of military information was delivered to the inn, it would start at a standard of three hundred miles per day.

Nowadays, it is not difficult to achieve this speed in the construction of official roads.

Xu Huizu has been going there for several months, and it should have been more than two months since he arrived in Tubo.

Transmitting messages is naturally much faster than marching. The information Zhu Ying saw was about half a month ago.

As Xu Huizu estimated, the Mongolian cavalry's support is obviously very self-righteous, thinking that in a plain area like Tubo, [-] cavalry are enough to sweep.

Xu Huizu's persuasion was fruitless, so he could only let it go.

Timur apparently sent an elite commander, who set up an ambush very early, waiting to harvest the Ming or Mongolian army.

The Mongolian army, which had achieved a small victory in the front, rushed forward greedily and naturally fell into an ambush by Timur's army.

At that time, the Mongolian army was divided into three groups and attacked directly.

All three routes were ambushed, and the artillery poured down like raindrops.

They forgot that Timur's army not only had swords, bows and crossbows, but also artillery like Ming Dynasty.

Three routes were defeated and the rear route was intercepted.

It was thanks to the support of the Ming army that a lot of losses were recovered.

After gathering the troops and horses, the one hundred thousand army was suddenly reduced by [-]%.

The Mongolian commander almost killed himself to apologize.

These are casually recruited stragglers, the real elite Mongolian cavalry.

After all, the money and food given by Daming this time was enough, and Beiyuan was too embarrassed to fool him.

Of the [-] troops, [-] were iron cavalry defending the Beiyuan royal court. After counting, it was found that the loss was more than [-].

Every warrior who can defend the royal court is a warrior with the title of "Batulu" in the grassland.

They died too miserably and cowardly.

He did not show his bravery at all and died under the enemy's fire.

For this reason, the Mongolian commander must bear great responsibility.

If the Ming army had not responded, the losses would have been even greater.

After all, the Mongolian cavalry penetrated too deep and their retreat was cut off. It was the gap that was opened abruptly for the Ming army to keep up.

This time, it was also the first time that the Ming army fought against Timur's army.

Xu Huizu wrote in the letter.

Timur's army was not weaker than the Ming army, and his slave army also had strict military discipline.

In terms of equipment and firearms, they are not much inferior to our army.

Especially its noble armor has better defense than the Ming armor.

They are a small number of elites, all covered with armor, like iron barrels, and cannot be hurt by firearms.

When Zhu Ying saw this, he knew that what Xu Huizu was talking about was the extremely famous plate armor in history.
