Steam Daming: Stop calling me to supervise the country

Chapter 179 Li Wei, Li Xin

"Selling abalone, selling abalone, fresh abalone, abalone that has just landed, fresh and plump, tender and crisp." The fish market in Guangzhou Prefecture is extraordinarily lively, and the clamor is one after another.

"Selling newspapers, selling newspapers, fresh newspapers, new things just happened, the Prince of Zhujiang County angered Jin Wu, the political envoy." A child was hawking a bag of newspapers in the streets and alleys.

"Come here, you, Guangzhou Daily, it's all ten days ago, there's nothing new."

"It's about to be sent, it's about to be sent, let's buy another copy."

The copper plate fell into the bag, and someone paid for one.

At this time, it has been ten days since Zhu Zhanchang killed Jin Wu at the dock. The matter reached Yingtianfu, Zhu Xi gave instructions, and Zhu Zhanchang was in charge. Huang Huihong couldn't understand why Zhu Xi would do this to Zhu Zhanchang. With great authority, it is impossible even for the prince to visit in person.

After this incident, Huang Huihong can be said to be very respectful to Zhu Zhanchang, and he has no other thoughts at all.

The newspaper run by Lin Miao spent an entire page describing the events of the day. On the front page was a portrait of Zhu Zhanchang. The handsome and romantic young man raised his arms and shouted, "I have a dream."

After such publicity, Zhu Zhanchang's fame spread instantly.

Liwei and Lixin achieved their goal together.

The administrative envoy in Guangzhou is temporarily vacant, and both the commander and the prisoner remain unchanged.

Zhu Zhanchang and Fang Shi were walking together on the construction site of the Prince's Mansion in Zhujiang County.

Zhu Zhanchang watched the mansion slowly being built, and the other party said, "Since Fang Zhan, you still decide to stay and help me in the future."

"It is an honor for Wei Chen to follow His Royal Highness."

In the case of Jinwu, Fang Shi was considered to have made a great contribution. Zhu Zhanchang also said in the memorial to Zhu Xi that Zhu Xi meant that he could consider joining the Ministry of Officials, because the original Minister of Officials made Zhu Xi a little dissatisfied and not smart enough. , but it is estimated that we will have to investigate for a period of time before turning to the past.

In the end, under the persuasion of Hu Guang and his own ideas, Fang Shi decided to stay in Guangdong and be Zhu Zhanchang's right-hand man.

He is a man with political aspirations, and it was also a great determination to give up this opportunity.

"His Royal Highness, Mu Bin, the prince of the Duke of Guizhou, in Yunnan's Mu Mansion, should arrive in Guangzhou Mansion tomorrow. Where will His Highness meet him?"

"It's still a moonlit night at the 24th Bridge. By the way, what happened to the police station?"

"According to His Highness's instructions, it has been arranged, and the people below will have to adapt for a while."

Zhu Zhanchang nodded and continued to ask, "Where's the Nan family?"

"Now that Nan Zhizhi has been appointed as the head of the Nan family, the Nan family has provided all the routes of smuggling before, and the officials in various links have basically brought them back."

Because Fang Shi's efforts to protect Zhu Zhanchang didn't kill the Nan family, he just killed a few important people and held Nan Zhi as a puppet family. After all, Fang Shi's wife had done a great job this time, so she gave him some face.

"The petty officials will deal with it later. I mean all the others have changed. It's just that a large number of people are involved in a short period of time, and it cannot affect the normal operation of the local government offices. Change it little by little. Cheap officials are already corrupt, and the only way is to replace them."

"It's Your Highness, I'll handle it."

Zhu Zhanchang likes Fang Shi's unpretentious work.

At this time, Zhang San came over. His hand was not good, and he knew that it was bad, but the working people couldn't relax, so they helped Zhu Zhanchang with his hands tied.

"Your Highness, you are here."

"Zhang San, why are you coming to the construction site again? You have to take good care of your hands now."

"His Royal Highness, I'm fine." Zhang San was actually still worried that his hands would not be able to do meticulous work, and Zhu Zhanchang would not look down on him at that time.

This is the simple working people, but if they do not do it with their own hands, they will not feel at ease.

Zhu Zhanchang smiled slightly: "You just have a good rest. If you have time, just study the steam engine and supervise the construction of the factory. You are the leader now, and you don't have to do everything yourself. You must learn to work reasonably. Divide it down, you guys listen to me, and later let me see that Director Zhang has to do it himself, and I will deduct your wages."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Zhang San scratched his head embarrassedly, Zhu Zhanchang said earnestly: "Zhang San, don't worry, you can help me manage the factory and manage these people. You don't have time to go to the factory every day, you have to give it to me. Take care of it or not, I'm the only one who asks you."

"Yes, yes, Your Highness." Zhang San happily left.

"Your Highness, you are really kind to the workers."

"They are all simple and hardworking people."

A guard trotted over: "Your Highness, there is a secret letter from Your Majesty."

Zhu Zhanchang opened it and handed it to Fang Shi.

"Your Highness this..."

"Look at it." Fang Shi understood that Zhu Zhanchang regarded him as his own, so he opened the secret letter.

Looking at the shock on his face, he looked at Zhu Zhanchang: "His Royal Highness, is what you said in the letter true?"

Zhu Zhanchang nodded: "Mid-Autumn Festival, it is advisable to open the sea ban, there are still two months, we have to hurry up, the natural location of the port of Xiangjiang Island is good, it can be barely used with a little construction, and there should not be too many ships in the early stage. Omen is just right as a resting place for foreign ships."

Only at this time did Fang Shi understand the reason why Zhu Zhanchang went to Xiangjiang Island first when he came to Guangzhou. He had already planned to build the port after the sea ban on Xiangjiang Island.

"There are still less than two months until the Mid-Autumn Festival. Fang Zangsi will only open one port in Guangzhou Prefecture after opening the sea ban. My decision is Xiangjiang Island, what do you think."

"What Your Highness said is very true, but there are many good ports in the entire Guangdong vassal..."

"What you want to talk about is the issue of smuggling, which means that all the officials involved in smuggling must be replaced. Since the sea ban has been imposed, the smuggling must be stopped, so please, Fang Yansi, do me a favor. ."

"Your Highness, you said."

"Let the Nan family gather those aristocratic families in the Guangdong vassal. Someday, I will meet with them. If the place is concerned, it can be placed in the Nan family's mansion."

Fang Shi nodded slightly: "His Royal Highness, this minister will do it."

"Don't let them know about the opening of the sea ban for the time being."

"clear."

Fang Shi feels more and more that he can do a great job with Zhu Zhanchang, but Zhu Zhanchang's identity is after all the grandson of the fifth emperor, and he can only rank third among the prince's direct sons. The chance to inherit the great treasure can be said to be Very little, why did Zhu Di give him so much power.

He really can't figure it out, and now he has to do things well.

……

The next day, on the moonlit night of the 24th Bridge, a young man came to the door. He was less than 20 years old. He was not very handsome, but he was more than 1.8 meters tall. His face was upright. He was the Duke of Guizhou, Yunnan. The eldest son Mu Bin.

"Humph!" Facing Zhu Zhanchang, who lived in the brothel, Mu Bin felt a little contempt, but he couldn't help but be surprised when he learned that Zhu Zhanchang held the Yongle Emperor Sword to kill Jin Wu, the political envoy.

What kind of person is this highness?

"His Royal Highness, Prince Mu Bin is downstairs." Xiaosheng informed Zhu Zhanchang.

"Go and pick him up."

"what?"

"Ah what, let's go."

"Xiaosheng was just surprised that His Highness wanted to meet him in person. This is the first time His Highness greeted him after arriving in Guangzhou Mansion."

"Oh? Is it? I didn't pay attention. After all, the prince of the country guarding the border has come from afar, and it should be picked up."

Going downstairs, Mu Bin felt a little dazed when he saw Zhu Zhanchang, who was smiling all over his face. Such a good-looking young man was always at odds with the person in the newspaper who petitioned to kill Jin Wu for the people.

"Mu Shizi came from a long way to go upstairs first."

"His Royal Highness, my mother has an order not to go to the brothel."

"Uh..." I didn't expect it to be a stunned young man: "This is not a brothel. The palace of the Prince of Zhujiang County is still under construction. This is a temporary lease, not a brothel."

Mu Bin had to follow him in, and as soon as he sat down, the boy put the package on the table: "His Royal Highness, inside is the golden tiger talisman of the Yunnan vassal, which was brought to Your Highness by the order of my father."

Zhu Zhanchang was stunned by this number of ways. Whatever the situation, he would pay for his family and show his loyalty.

Who is the rebel?

"What do you mean, Shizi? Have a cup of tea first."

"My father said that His Highness is in charge of the troops in the four places, and where it must be useful, we will send it to His Highness first from the palace of Qianguo, so as to avoid sending someone to run when His Highness wants to use it." Mu Bin drank. Tea, the words are very sincere.

Half of the tiger talisman is in front of you, and taking Yunnan's troops is like having the final say, but do you want to take it?

The emperor was afraid of Mufu in Yunnan, but he, Zhu Zhanchang, was not afraid.

Sometimes the emperor fears you, not because you have the intention to rebel, but because you have the ability to rebel.

Your reputation is too high and your strength is too strong, you have to suppress it.

Zhu Di was extremely afraid of Mu Mansion in Yunnan. After three generations of Qian Guogong had run it, the original frontier land was now strong and strong, and Mu Mansion had an excellent reputation for several generations. How could Zhu Di not feel resentment.

He has to deal with the barbarians in the north, and Jiaozhi in the south has a headache. What if Yunnan also comes to step in?
When Zhu Zhanchang came to control the Yunnan army, he made it clear that he was going to suppress you in Yunnan Mufu. If you want to oppose it, you should oppose it as soon as possible. Now that my country is strong and powerful, if you oppose it, I will take this opportunity to clean up you.

Unlike Zhu Di, Zhu Zhanchang knows history, and Mu Wangfu has never turned around from the founding of the Ming Dynasty to the end.

Zhu Zhanchang pushed the package back without opening it: "Half of the tiger talisman was originally returned to the Duke of Guizhou for safekeeping. I just control the army, and I don't want to mobilize the army now, just hold half of it in my hand."

"Prince, I received the letter that you have been leaving for a long time. Why did it take so long to arrive? Did something happen on the way?"

Mu Bin coughed, feeling a little embarrassed. The adjutant beside him said, "I saw a fungus on the way. I never thought that the prince would lie down for five days."

"Let Your Highness laugh, it's just undercooked."

It is at this time that Yunnan people like to eat mushrooms.

"I also brought you some, Your Highness." When it comes to mushrooms, this upright man is excited.

Isn't this the assassination of the county king?You dare to take out the poisonous fungus.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I didn't cook it last time, but the taste is extremely delicious. I heard that His Royal Highness and His Royal Highness are both people who know how to eat. This fungus must be tasted."

Zhu Zhanchang waved his hand, that's fine. Suddenly an idea flashed through his mind. He looked at the young Mu Bin in front of him. Although this guy is not very famous, he is also a rare general. Since he is here, then Just don't go.

"Sir, I am planning to form a navy here. I am amazed to see your bones. You are a unique naval wizard, or you should stay."
