Invincible Zhengde

Chapter 305 Entering Daning
Beijing, Forbidden City.

Since the beginning of autumn, there have been several rains, and the weather has become cooler and cooler. The dignitaries in the capital have begun to light coal stoves, and black smoke billows all day long, and the Forbidden City is no exception.It's just that the time is short, and there is no smog in the capital. According to the current burning, it is estimated that it will take decades. At this time, the black smoke in the Forbidden City has just dissipated.

Zhu Youtang breathed the air that smelled of coal, with a relaxed expression on his face. After smelling this smell for a long time, he still thought it smelled good.

Zhu Youtang's health has also improved a lot since he lived comfortably this day. He never dared to go out for a walk in such a cold time before. If he really did this, he might catch a cold in the next day.Thinking of his son who is far away in Liaodong, Zhu Youtang showed a smile on his face. Liaodong should be colder, right?The bastard will not come back after being released, just playing happily.

"His Royal Highness, several senior scholars from the cabinet are here." He Neng walked to Zhu Youtang's side and said softly.

The emperor is in a good mood, there is nothing messy in the harem, the status of the empress is stable, and the days of eunuchs and maids are much easier.In addition, life in the palace is easier, and there are often rewards, so they are even happier.

"How many great scholars are here?" Zhu Youtang was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Then let them all come in!"

Not long after, the three cabinet maesters walked in from the outside, all with smiles on their faces, it was obvious that there was something happy about it.With the increase in the imperial court's revenue, the courtiers don't have to worry about running out of money at the end of each year as before, and the life of several academicians from various universities is also better, so they are all in a good mood.

"Is there a good thing for the loves?" Zhu Youtang looked at the three cabinet scholars, waved his hands to signal them to be polite, and then asked with a smile. "

"Returning to Your Majesty is the good news from Liaodong." Liu Jian said with a smile: "It's also good news when I first arrived in the cabinet. I will send the memorial to you soon."

Zhu Youtang nodded. The success of Liaodong is not uncommon. Although his son likes to make troubles and is young and ignorant, he has always been a good fighter in war. This time he is in Liaodong, so naturally there is no problem.Reaching out his hand to take the memorial presented by He Neng, Zhu Youtang quickly read it after opening it, and finished it in a short time.

"This memorial is different." Zhu Youtang said with a smile: "I won a battle before, and I used my best writing, I'm afraid the writing is not good enough."

After hearing Zhu Youtang's words, the three cabinet scholars also laughed, and Li Dongyang said: "The court's successive victories over the past few years have made these frontier generals feel embarrassed. If they don't win, they will lose. I am ashamed to show credit for myself. But this time Liaodong has won a big victory. After this battle, the three guards of Wuharian will be honest for a long time. I have no worries in the northern border of Ming Dynasty!"

Li Dongyang's words let the atmosphere in the hall relax again, and the monarchs and ministers also laughed. This is a good thing!

Zhu Youtang was thinking about his son's plan to rebuild Daningwei. The court didn't know about it, neither his son nor himself said anything about it.It would cost a lot of money for the court to rebuild the Great Ningwei. Although the court has been affluent in the past few years and wants these ministers to agree to rebuild the Great Ningwei, it is estimated that these courtiers will not do it.

In the words of the son, let's do it first, and what else can they do after it's done?Could it be possible to demolish Daning City?
Thinking of his son's appearance as a rascal, Zhu Youtang could only smile wryly and shake his head. It is really helpless for the prince of a country to play a rascal.

Zhu Youtang looked at the three cabinet scholars, and he was not going to say anything about it. When the matter really came out, he pretended not to know that everything was his son's own decision.It's enough to punish him later, and he doesn't worry that the relationship between father and son will deteriorate. He is only such a son, and he can't change it if he punishes the prince.

Besides, how could his son's exquisite heart not know his intentions?Zhu Youtang simply ignored it.

"This year the court has a lot more money, and the courtiers have been busy for a year. After winter, give more rewards, and the cabinet will come up with a charter." Zhu Youtang said with a smile.

The end-of-year reward from the imperial court is not a strange thing. Basically, the imperial court has a surplus and life is better, so there will always be such rewards, just like the year-end awards issued by later generations.Units with good benefits will issue more, and poor ones will issue less, and the same is true for Daming.Now that the imperial court is getting better, Zhu Youtang will be said to be mean and ungrateful if he does not reward him.

It's not surprising that the three Cabinet Grand Masters also have their rewards, and they are more than others, so it's natural to think about it carefully.

No one dares to object to this, not even a cabinet scholar. If anyone in the future opposes the year-end bonus, everyone will at most call him a fool, but because of his opposition, everyone’s year-end bonus is gone. What will everyone say about him? ?It is estimated that the swearing is light.The three cabinet scholars agreed without the slightest hesitation, with smiles on their faces.

The capital is researching and issuing year-end awards, and Zhu Houzhao, who is in Liaodong, is arranging the final affairs of Liaodong. After all, he is leaving Liaodong.

Zhu Houzhao didn't care about the matter of building the city in Daning, and it was up to the local officials to handle it.Daning City is not built on open land. People already have a city. Although it has been owned by Duoyan Sanwei these years, Duoyan Sanwei will not demolish Daning City, but will build it properly, so basically it is just a renovation. .

The expansion of Daning City may not be put on the agenda until after Daning's commerce develops in the last two or three years.

Day by day, things in Liaodong were almost settled soon, and Wang Shouren's good news also came.

Zhu Houzhao flipped through the victory report, with a smile on his face. After the last big victory, Wang Shouren did not pass slowly, but chose to march straight to Daning City in a hurry.When the army arrived in Daning City, there was still turmoil here. One side wanted to surrender, and the other side wanted to run away, but they didn't run away, and they were all arrested by Wang Shouren.

Only a few leaders ran away with a part of the cavalry, and the rest were all captured. The army had already entered Daning City, and Wang Shouren also began to set up a list to calm the people.

The cavalry is expanding to the north and west. Although Daning City is the main city of the three guards of Uharyan, which is similar to the capital, but they are stationed in herds after all. Originally, outside the Great Wall near Xuanfu in the west, it all belonged to Wuliangha area.With such a large area, it would be quite difficult for Da Ming to firmly occupy it.

The main reason is the lack of population, but Zhu Youtang is not worried. In two or three years, there will be Ming people all over the grassland.
