Jinyi champion

Chapter 932

In the theatrical building, Sun Lan was still watching the play, while Zhu Hao had already left the private room to meet the envoy from the palace—specially to inform about the construction of the railway.

"...The above statement has been approved, but the court did not get the support of the courtiers during the deliberations, so His Majesty made a rigid decision, and it will not go through the court's yamen later. His Majesty is worried that if the expenses are too large to bear, he said that it can be slowly advanced. In a few years Just fix the railroad."

"Well, to report back to Your Majesty, I said that the construction of the railway will be advanced immediately. Your Majesty does not need to worry too much about the cost. Private merchants will raise money, food and manpower. Of course, the railway will also be used by the people in many cases."

"That's good, that's good, Mr. Zhu, since you have nothing else to do, our family will leave."

Zhu Hao didn't go out to see him off, but sat in the back row of the public seats in the theatrical building, and continued to watch the performance on the stage, but he didn't know that there was a pair of beautiful eyes looking viciously from the open window of the private room upstairs on the left.

Zhu Hao had noticed these eyes before, but he didn't take them seriously. He knew that the owner of these eyes was Zhu San.

Zhu San usually likes to go to his theater to watch plays when he has nothing to do. This is a good place for Zhu San to kill boredom and seek entertainment. Today, she was lucky enough to meet Zhu Hao and his wife. Now she has forgotten all the plays on the stage. , just stared at the couple.

It’s just that when Zhu Hao was with Sun Lan earlier, Zhu San’s angle was almost parallel to the private room of the couple. Zhu San couldn’t see what was going on inside. Zhu Hao came out to meet the court envoy, and when he went downstairs, he happened to meet Zhu San’s eyes. match.

"it is good!"

The spectators below the stage and the boxes on the second floor on the left and right sides cheered for the performance on the stage.

Zhu Hao was not in the mood to watch a play, nor was he in the mood to greet Zhu San, a little boudoir and resentful woman.

Up to now, the palace is still worrying about Zhu San’s marriage. Generally speaking, it’s just that the high is not enough, and it seems that Xu Jie was intended to be the son-in-law before, but now everyone has returned to their hometown to get married. "No. [-] scholar" young hero to marry, unless you choose a young scholar who was born in the Imperial College.

Zhu San herself is just a seventeen-year-old girl, and she didn't say that she must get married.

The marriage age of Ming princesses is generally relatively late, and it is not uncommon for them to marry after the age of eighteen or nine. This is fundamentally different from folk girls worrying that they will not be able to marry when they are too old. After all, there will always be people who want to marry the royal family.

"gone!"

Zhu Hao stood up, greeted the servant standing beside him, and was about to leave.

Zhu San's complexion changed, and she rushed out of the private room and wanted to go downstairs to block people, but her place of watching the opera was upstairs on the left, a distance away from the gate of the theater. Looking back, I saw Zhu San appearing at the door panting, and then looked at the direction in which his carriage was leaving with resentful eyes.

"There are a lot of right and wrong in the world of mortals, who have I provoked?"

Zhu Hao sighed self-deprecatingly, and said to himself.

……

……

There are quite a lot of people looking for Zhu Hao recently, Huang Zan and Zhang Cong both want to know their future through Zhu Hao.

Yang Shen is also looking for Zhu Hao, and wants to re-cultivate Zhu Hao as the core force of the old school, and prepare for the next big ceremony.

However, Zhu Hao never reported to the Imperial Academy, as if he didn’t even know that he had been transferred back to the Imperial Academy, so that Yang Shen called his colleagues from the Imperial Academy to send a letter to Zhu Hao’s residence, asking Zhu Hao to go back to report on his duties earlier. Zhu Hao also pretended to be ignorant, anyway, there is no power to force him to work in the yamen as an office worker who works from sunrise to sunset.

On this day, Zhu Hao went to inspect the weaving workshop and saw Lou Suzhen who had come back from outside the city.

Lou Suzhen has been busy with the expansion of the arsenal recently, and as a woman, she has dealt with all kinds of officials in the court, and she still does it with ease and performed very well.

"My lord, I met Mr. Tang yesterday. He asked about my lord's recent situation. He said that he hadn't seen you for many days. He said that if you have time, you should go to his house."

Lou Suzhen turned out to be the messenger.

Zhu Hao waved his hand: "Too busy, no time."

Lou Suzhen said: "Mr. Tang said that recently, it seems that you don't even pay much attention to the affairs of Zuoshu. This is not good."

Zhu Hao looked disapproving: "Your Majesty has been diligent and restraining himself recently, and has always been conscientious. He handles the affairs of the court and China by himself. Even if he encounters some difficult memorials and entrusts me to handle them, I will just take them back to a private place and take time to approve a batch of them. , or give me an opinion, it is impossible for me to show up on some fixed occasions at this juncture."

Today is different from the past. In order to ensure that his identity will not be leaked so quickly, and to save himself a year and a half, Zhu Hao concentrates on doing things that update technology and change the times. He rarely appears in Sixianju. Fixed occasion.

Now that there are quite a few people in the court who know about Sixian Ju, who knows if someone will leak it?

Ever since he ascended the throne, the emperor has always had the habit of going out of the palace in private. Even if the people around the emperor dare not disclose it, not everyone in the palace has the same heart as the emperor, and it will be a matter of time before someone finds out.

"Why are you so busy, my lord? You can't just care about your career in life, you have to take care of your family... Besides, you are so young, why do you have to rush to do things?"

Lou Suzhen sighed softly.

She had never seen a young man who worked so hard like Zhu Hao.

Zhu Hao also just looks lazy, but in fact, how focused he is in doing things is really beyond the comprehension of those outside who like to criticize Zhu Hao for being lazy.

Zhu Haodao: "There is no way, only now, surrounded by all the enemies in court, His Majesty still trusts me so much, if you don't take the opportunity to finish what you want to do, when I really have the opportunity to hold power in the future, then I'm afraid You only care about power struggles, how can you do everything you want to do like today?"

"Madam, in fact, you have no obligation to be so busy. The rise and fall of Daming has nothing to do with you. No matter how hard you work, you are making wedding dresses for others. If you feel tired and want to resign, just tell me at any time, and I will allow you to leave." .”

"How come? It's fine now."

Lou Suzhen was enjoying it, it seemed that she had come out to do things during this time, realized her life value, and her mental state was very good.

Zhu Hao said: "Ma'am, you shouldn't force yourself. I have already done business in Sichuan and Shu, and I have also bought another courtyard in the Land of Abundance. If you want to go back to seclusion, you can completely get rid of the human affairs of the first half of your life there. I can give it to you." You have a business, let you take care of it yourself, it is better than relying on others like this now."

Lou Suzhen still shook her head: "It is a concubine's honor to be able to help the young master, so there is no need for the young master to talk about it."

"it is good."

Zhu Hao nodded in relief, "I've been busy recently, and I don't care about the thoughts of the people around me. If you have something to say, tell me directly, there is no need to avoid it."

……

……

Zhu Hao worked from morning to night, busy with only two things.

One is to build a railway from Xishan to Xuanfu.

The second is to expand the business territory.

As for mining and so on, they are all a little concerned, and Zhu Hao also put aside Zhu Si's pursuit of his father's title and the future moves of the court.

If you are busy all day, you can deal with meals casually, and basically sleep in laboratories and workshops at night. Many people don’t even know who Zhu Hao is. They only often see a young man going in and out busy. Dialogue with irrelevant people.

After September, the weather gradually turns cooler.

The first snow in the north will fall at any time, and Zhu Hao has been living outside the capital for more than ten consecutive days at this time.

This day Zhang Zuo came to Zhu Hao to discuss matters under Zhu Si's order. Even with Jin Yiwei leading the way, it still took Zhang Zuo nearly two hours to reach Zhu Hao's place, but he only saw Lou Suzhen.

"...Young Master had a busy night last night and went to bed after dawn. It has only been more than an hour now. Can Eunuch allow you to rest for a while?"

Even though Lou Suzhen knew that the person opposite was the eunuch in charge of the Daming Sili Supervisor, she still spoke for Zhu Hao.

Is it great that you are the eunuch in charge of the ceremony?Don't forget who my son is working for, he is so busy, why don't you understand his hard work?

Zhang Zuo smiled wryly: "Our family can wait, there is no rush, no rush."

Lou Suzhen hurriedly called people in, prepared refreshments for Zhang Zuo, and arranged lunch.

After noon, Lou Suzhen reckoned that Zhu Hao had slept for more than two hours and was about to get up to see Zhang Zuo, so she opened the door and went inside, but saw Zhu Hao was still deeply asleep.

She went to the back room, trying not to disturb Zhu Hao as much as possible.

Zhu Hao was very alert, and suddenly opened his eyes, a pair of blood-red eyes looked directly at Lou Suzhen.

"My lord, please forgive me for disturbing you. It's Mr. Zhang who is in charge of the ceremonial supervisor's visit. He has been waiting for you for almost an hour." Lou Suzhen said.

"Oh."

Zhu Hao didn't seem too anxious, got up and got dressed, suddenly thought of something, looked at Lou Suzhen, "Madam, do you want to avoid it first?"

"The young master is too far-fetched, since the concubine is a slave of the Zhu family, serving the young master is a matter of course."

As she said that, Lou Suzhen actually went over to help Zhu Hao get dressed.

Although he didn't think it would happen, after all Zhu Hao was also wearing white single clothes, but Lou Suzhen came up to help so brazenly, Zhu Hao still felt strange.

……

……

lobby.

Zhu Hao and Zhang Zuo sat across the table, and Lou Suzhen and others had already left the hall.

Zhang Zuo will explain in the future that in addition to giving Zhu Hao the recent memorials that Zhu Si is not easy to solve, he will also bring some recent changes in the court... such as Mao Ji is about to return to the capital, and there are cabinet scholars involved The question of newcomers.

"...After all, there is still a major flaw in the military affairs in the Northwest. Now the court is negotiating the candidates for the new trilateral commander-in-chief, and Mr. Zhu has warned that we should pay special attention to the issue of the morale of the soldiers in Datong, Xuanfu and other places? This time It seems that mutiny is involved, and His Majesty is afraid of any big trouble, so he wants to discuss it with the gentleman earlier."

Zhu Hao nodded: "Don't worry too much."

Later, Zhu Hao read Zhang Zuo's evidence of the "big mistake" in Northwest China one by one, but it was just that there was a shortage of money and food, and the army pushed up and down, causing people to change their minds.
