Steam Daming: Stop calling me to supervise the country

Zhu Zhan stood up from the rocking chair with a kick, and looked at the little maid in disbelief: "Is she pregnant?"

"Your Highness, yes Your Highness, I'm pregnant, the concubine is pregnant." The little maid blushed with excitement. She was Chen Xinyue's personal maid.

"Go, go, go to the concierge and get ten taels of gold as a reward."

"All blessings, my lord, my concubine."

Zhu Zhanqian ran to Chen Xinyue's yard in three steps and two steps in parallel.

As soon as the door was opened, a chubby woman walked out of the door and almost bumped into it.

"Aiyo, aiyo, my lord!!!" The chubby woman was terrified. She is the most famous midwife in the Gaoming family circle in the capital. Her husband is a doctor. The husband and wife specialize in prescribing medicines for women who are about to give birth. Body conditioning, childbirth, and diet therapy during confinement.

Zhu Zhanqian didn't have time to pay attention and walked into the room. Chen Xinyue was lying on the bed with a smile on his face, and the doctor and maidservants were waiting on him.

"My lord." Chen Xinyue was about to stand up and salute, Zhu Zhanqian hurriedly held her down: "Don't move, don't move."

Turning to look at the doctor: "Doctor, how is the princess?"

"Confirmed to be a happy pulse, congratulations to the lord, congratulations to the lord." The doctor, who is about 60 years old, will not draw conclusions lightly, so it is naturally confirmed.

When the feeling of ecstasy came, Zhu Zhanqian was in a daze for a short while and then said: "Rewards, rewards, rewards, there are rewards!!"

Zhu Zhanqian was always in good spirits on happy occasions, and he saw Chen Xinyue's generous rewards, and he was also happy in his heart. A big rock fell to the ground, and she was finally pregnant.

"Doctor, in this way, you will stay at home, and I will ask someone to arrange the best yard for you. You and your husband will watch the new moon all day long. If she has anything to eat and drink, you will tidy it up for her. "

"Also, and, you go and get someone to buy some fun gadgets for the princess, so that the princess won't be bored at home."

Chen Xinyue smiled shallowly: "My lord, don't worry, everything has been arranged. Both the doctor and the doctor will live in the mansion. How dare you trouble your Highness with the affairs of the back house."

Chen Xinyue had already started to arrange things as soon as she found out that she was pregnant. If Zhu Zhanqian had to bother about this matter, then she would feel unqualified as a princess.

"You take good care of it, I'll bring you whatever you want." Only then did Zhu Zhanqian realize that those love words were a little empty, and simple and plain words were what he wanted to say most now.

Chen Xinyue waved everyone to go out first, then leaned on Zhu Zhanqian's shoulder, and said worriedly: "Your Highness, what if I don't give birth to a boy?"

"What nonsense, a girl is also my child, and I like girls too."

Boys and girls are far apart in this day and age, Chen Xinyue felt that Zhu Zhanqian was comforting her.

But it's okay, I'm still young, one child can't make a second child.

"Your Highness, do you want to order someone to talk to the Queen Mother?"

"Say it, why don't you say it?"

"But the doctor said that the first three months is a critical period, and the child is unstable."

"What are you talking about, I'll lock you up in the house and you're not allowed to go anywhere, just to keep the baby."

"That concubine will become a canary in a cage."

"It's a pig in a cage."

"His Royal Highness will always make fun of his concubines."

This kind of big news cannot be concealed, and soon the news reached the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager was surprised and delighted, while Sun Ruowei was mainly surprised.

"Quickly, hurry up and pass the decree, let Xinyue come to the palace to meet you." Sun Ruowei said to the eunuchs.

The Empress Dowager hurriedly interrupted her: "You are confused, the first three months of a woman's pregnancy are the most critical, although Xinyue's body and bones have always been good, but this is reincarnation, you can't move the fetal gas, how can you order her to see you at this time. "

"Queen, I am also eager to see you."

The Empress Dowager thought for a while and said: "Order the imperial physician to prepare some nourishing prescriptions. If you want the best, send them to Haiwang's mansion, and let Haiwang order people to grab the medicine himself.
For medicinal materials that are hard to find, just come to the palace to get them, and wait for Xinyue's body to stabilize before entering the palace. "

Then the Empress Dowager said, "Send someone to Huzhou Mansion to inform you."

When the joy was over, the people around her retreated a little, and the Empress Dowager said in a low voice: "Xin Yue is the first child, Zhan Qian's first child, no matter whether it is a boy or a girl, both of them attach great importance to it. , according to Zhan Qian's temperament, I'm afraid the bottom will be turned upside down, even if it is really accidentally dropped, it will not be peaceful."

This is obviously for Sun Ruowei, don't make small moves, you can't bear it if something happens, it should be said that no one can bear it.

Sun Ruo smiled and said, "That's natural. Xinyue is pregnant. After all, the two of you will have a child. Queen Mother, you can feel at ease."

The Empress Dowager thought it wrong, and said, "Someone is coming to the Palace of Prince Yue, ordering Concubine Yue to enter the palace."

There is also a son who has no heirs, so it needs to be beaten up. The most important thing is that Zhu Zhanyong is still devoted, and he is more like a wife than the princess. Isn't this a royal taboo?
On this day, the royal supplements were sent from Wang Hai's mansion like flowing water. In order to avoid chaos and protect Chen Xinyue's safety, Zhu Zhanqian declined everyone's visits and kept the courtyard clean.

Only two people, Chen Xuan and Chen Xu, arrived in a hurry.

Chen Xuan specially waited for his younger sister to come with him, along with Chen Xinyue's biological younger brother Cao Wang.

As brother-in-law, Zhu Zhanqian and Cao Wanghai have not met many times, but because he is now a member of Parliament in Australia Island in name, so he has been to New Shanghai City and he has met several times. The young man under 20 years old, He looks very similar to his father, with a gentle and elegant appearance, but also has a slow temper, not expressing joy, and not being surprised or surprised.

Doing things is very calm.

Chen Xu took Chen Xinyue's hand and smiled softly: "Xinyue, you are the first child, but please remember not to move around, not to squat down, not to lift heavy objects, not to run, not to jump..."

"Mother, don't worry, the prince has already let the midwife and the doctor stay at home. There are special dishes for three meals a day, let alone walking around. If I can't be locked up, the prince may lock me in bed. "

The mother and daughter looked at each other and smiled, Chen Xu patted the back of Chen Xinyue's hand, and said affectionately: "You have also taken a lot of medicines for conditioning your body, you have to be careful, you have to be careful with what you eat and drink, you understand. "

"Mother, don't worry, you are surrounded by the most trustworthy maids, and you will only dare to eat and drink food and drink after you have tasted it."

Chen Xu felt relieved now, the things in the royal inner courtyard have the most variables, but she also knows that her daughter can suppress other concubines in the palace, and the prince loves her very much. Husband and wife are always different from others.

Chen Xu mainly came to explain some precautions to Chen Xinyue.

In the outer hall, Zhu Zhanqian sat with Chen Xuan and Cao Wang.

Chen Xuan sighed and said, "My lord, I have submitted my resignation to the imperial court."

At the critical stage last time, Chen Xuan showed up to express his opinion. Now that the matter is almost settled, it is time to leave.

The two major naval fleets of the Ming Dynasty, the East China Sea Fleet and the South China Sea Fleet, although the strength of the East China Sea Fleet is not even comparable to a unit of the South China Sea Fleet, but when Zhu Zhanqian separates the South China Sea Fleet, the East China Sea Fleet will become the strongest marine in Ming Dynasty fleet.

As Zhu Zhanqian's father-in-law, coupled with his previous strong statement, it is impossible for Daming to hand over the East China Sea Fleet to him again.

"If father-in-law wants to rest, he can take a rest. Of course, my son-in-law still needs your help."

"What's up?"

"The South China Sea Fleet is about to face reorganization and will be reorganized into four major fleets. If Yue Zhang is interested, I will hand over the Pacific Fleet to Yue Zhang."

"Pacific Fleet?"

"Yes, the newly reorganized South China Sea Fleet will be divided into four parts: the Pacific Fleet, the South Sea Fleet, the Western Fleet, and the Atlantic Fleet. They will be in charge of four places. The sea area where the East China Sea Fleet does not overlap."

"Will there be any conflicts?"

"Probably not. The main task is to protect the silver mines in Japan. This big silver mine is enough to mine for decades."

Chen Xuan nodded, as if he had accepted the task.

"Ah Wang, how is it? How is the situation in Australia Island?" Zhu Zhanqian asked his brother-in-law.

Cao Wang was a little nervous, and said like a report: "The iron ore and other minerals in Australia Island are in progress in an orderly manner. With the increase in demand for labor, many workers have now traveled across the ocean to Australia Island. The population The growth is fast, but the management is also very difficult.”

They are all people who did not get along well in their original places, and they want to come to the Australian island, because there is a large group like the Australian Mining Group, so the chances are great.

"Now you are a member of Parliament in Australia. Although the population is not too large, you have to get someone to establish a management system suitable for them as soon as possible. I will send someone to help you later. From now on, this place will be under your control. But you have to manage it carefully.”

"Yes, brother-in-law."

Chen Xuan took a sip of water, thought for a while and said: "My lord, Xinyue is the first child, and there are many people in your house, so it's a big matter, and you have to pay attention to everything."

"Well, my father-in-law can rest assured about this matter. I will use all my strength to keep the mother and child safe, and I will put an end to anything that may endanger Xinyue's mother and child." Zhu Zhanqian said firmly.

Chen Xuan nodded, just a little reminder for people like Zhu Zhanqian, he is so smart, as long as he is not overwhelmed by joy, he will definitely be able to arrange it.

"By the way, Yuezhang, there is one more thing you can advise me about."

"What's up?"

"As for the location of the United Nations headquarters, I have thought about several places, including New Shanghai City, Temasek, Brunei, Shuntian Prefecture, and Osaka Prefecture in Japan. You can help me with my advice."

Chen Xuan thought for a while: "I think we can send them first, Shuntian Mansion and New Shanghai City. Shuntian Mansion is the capital of Ming Dynasty. If it is really put here, what do you think? I will agree, and the east and the west are too far away, and the Osaka prefecture is the same, it is too far from the Western Federation headquarters, and it is inconvenient to come and go.”

"Temasek or Brunei."

Zhu Zhanqian nodded: "Temasek is located on an important maritime commercial route, and there are many ships passing by. After the Western Federation grows stronger, Temasek's position will become more important. In fact, Temasek and New Shanghai City have similar functions."

"So His Highness's final thought should be Brunei."

Zhu Zhanqian nodded: "This place is not very prosperous now, but it is located on the Nanyang Commercial Road, and it will be more convenient to rebuild. I still prefer to put the headquarters of the United Nations in Nanyang first, located in the middle of the Western and Daming Commercial Roads. .”

"Your Highness is right."

"Yue Zhang, there is one more thing I would like to ask you to help with."

"What's up?"

"Yuezhang cleaned up the river transport back then, and the rules and regulations were well organized, and they can be used for decades. In addition to the urban planning of the United Nations Headquarters, there is also a very important point that the future maritime trade rules will also be designated. Yuezhang Having experience in specifying river transport rules, I will definitely have Yue Zhang to formulate maritime transport rules this time.”

After the two matters of the Pacific Fleet and shipping regulations, Chen Xuan has just stepped down as the admiral of the East China Sea Fleet, and now it seems that he may be busier than before.

When people are in good spirits on happy occasions, Chen Xuan stroked his beard and said with a smile, "I didn't expect that I would be useful even at my age."

"Yuezhang, my uncle and nephew should also go together, they can help you, and my nephew has been studying well in Nanhai University, let him experience it earlier."

As soon as Chen Xuan talked about his grandson Chen Yu, Chen Xuan became more energetic. This kid is very smart and very similar to him. In history, he was also the third-generation Uncle Pingjiang who raised his title to Marquis of Pingjiang. It is considered that Chen Xuan's prestige has not been compromised.

"Chen Yu is still young. Although his ideas are good, they are a little immature, and he needs to practice hard."

"Just bring him this time, let him learn from you, hahaha."

Chen Xuan strongly supports Zhu Zhanqian, Zhu Zhanqian always repays favors, not to mention our eldest nephew is also a capable person, taking advantage of this time to recruit under his command, kill two birds with one stone.

After finishing the business, it is some small talk.

Chen Xuan smiled and said, "My lord, Chen Yu wrote to me before saying that a scientific research team from Nanhai University is making something called an internal combustion engine that you designed. It is said to be very miraculous."

"It can be understood as something that can replace the steam engine in the future."

"Replace the steam engine?" Chen Xuan was surprised. Daming was able to rely on the steam engine to drive it today, and Zhu Zhanqian said that he would make something to replace the steam engine.

"Yes, the principle of the steam engine is not possible. The advantage of our Ming Dynasty over other countries is that our basic industry is far better than other countries. The next step will be an era of great development. The large-scale manufacture of steam engines is certain. Therefore, the next generation of energy has to come, which is the internal combustion engine.”

The steam engine needs coal, but the internal combustion engine needs oil.

Petroleum refining is an important subject at Nanhai University, and rubber. After the great voyage is completed, Zhu Zhanqian has ordered people to go to South America to make rubber.

Moreover, Zhu Zhanqian still occupies the large oil field in the future. It can be said that the layout of the next era has also been completed.

"Yue Zhang, this time in Ingoland, we also know that across the Atlantic Ocean, there is a very large continent with fertile soil and water. Next, I plan to develop there, and the whole world will develop it together."
