The news that the crown prince was about to leave the capital quickly spread, which aroused a lot of discussion. After all, how long did it take for Sheng Jia to come back from the north tour? There were even rumors that the crown prince had a dispute with the saint and was about to be kicked out of Beijing.
However, such rumors that even roadside beggars were not very credible, soon dissipated with the wind as Zhu Biao participated in the morning meeting with civil and military officials as usual.
However, the preparations before departure were carried out in an orderly manner. Since the journey was not far away, and Zhu Biao had ordered not to enter the prefectural city along the way, it was relatively easy, and there was no need to alert the local officials to see him.
The most important point is the issue of guards. Zhu punctuated the emperor's pro-army Jinwu Guard and Jingying Xiaoqi Battalion to accompany him, and the chief general was the newly promoted Hussar General Zhang Cundao Consul.
Zhu Biao looked at Chahan and Zhang Cun, His Royal Highnesses, who stood upright in the memorial, and said, "You can arrange these things, and you don't have to ask my palace for everything."
The two hurriedly bowed: "The last general is incompetent, please forgive me, Your Highness."
Seeing this, Zhu Biao could only helplessly wave his hand to signal them to continue. He knew that these two people also had no idea. Although it was a very simple matter, he was afraid that something might go wrong.
After all, their identities are a bit awkward. Needless to say, Chahan, although his father made moves, he still didn’t actually surrender the land.
As for Zhang Cundao, his father had meritorious service in the court, but he had already left after all, and their father and son were from eastern Zhejiang, and they had never belonged to the direct line of the court.
Zhu Biao continued to look at the memorial and nodded from time to time. The two people below carefully talked about the arrangements along the way and various preparations, not caring whether His Royal Highness heard it or not.
Zhu Biao really didn’t care too much. These two people are not from the direct descendant, but the Jinwu Guard and Xiaoqiying who accompanied him as guards are both direct descendants. They are generals in name, but in fact they are in name only. If you want to have ulterior motives, you have to ask the generals and soldiers whether they agree.
What's more, Zhu Biao also secretly summoned Quan Xu led a small group of Jinyiwei to come to see him.
After finally waiting for them to finish all kinds of arrangements that are almost absolutely useless, Zhu Biao nodded affirmatively: "Very good, that's it, thank you for your hard work, Aiqing."
The two breathed a sigh of relief and cheered up their spirits: "It's hard to work for the king!"
Although he was caught off guard, he had real qualifications to get this matter done well. Being able to **** His Highness the Crown Prince on a tour was a burden only the direct descendants of the Eastern Palace were qualified to shoulder.
Just when the two breathed a sigh of relief and were about to leave, Zhu Biao was also tired of reviewing, so he put down the Zihao Ink and Bamboo Brush in his hand and pointed: "It is said that the glory of this pen comes from eating wild bamboo leaves in the mountains for many years. For the fur of mountain rabbits that drink water from mountain springs, you can only choose a handful of black double arrow hairs on their backs, which are rare and hard to get."
Chahan didn't understand what it meant, don't say it's just a handful of fur from a rabbit, so what if it's the hair of a black bear and a tiger, His Royal Highness is so honorable, sitting on the rivers and mountains of the Ming Dynasty, this little thing is not enough to break ten thousand roots every day road.
Although Zhang Cundao is a general, he is the eldest son of Mr. Zhang Yi, Mr. Zhaizhai. Although he was eager to understand, he responded immediately: "What your highness said is that there are old rabbits on the rocks in the south of the Yangtze River, who eat bamboo and drink springs. Zihao is picked by workers in Xuancheng to make pens, and one cent is chosen out of tens of millions of hairs."
Barely right, in fact, Zhu Biao suddenly said this sentence without any special meaning, but he said it when he thought of it, mainly to test the hasty response of the two of them.
The more abrupt it is, the more it can show the inner courage and temperament. Chahan doesn't understand anything. A typical Mongolian nobleman, he is good at riding and shooting, but he is weak in knowledge and strategy, and everyone can use it.
And Zhang Cunzhi responded with Bai Juyi's poems, although it is not wrong, it is not brilliant. It can be seen that he is not a man of great wisdom and courage. He is thinking about his original military performance. If he wants to be a hussar general, he must rely on his support. .
It can also be seen that it is normal for a tiger father to give birth to a dog.
Seeing that the prince did not speak, the two of them kept complaining in their hearts, and they quickly thought about what kind of metaphors this Shantu Zihao brush had, whether their words and deeds had anything to do with it recently, and what status your Highness is, how could they be aimless.
Zhu Biao doesn’t need to explain anything. This is the privilege of the superior. Whether you say it explicitly or insinuately, you have to find out the reason for yourself, and in the end you have to satisfy the noble.
After letting the two of them retreat, who were still confused, Zhu Biao stood up and stretched his muscles. Zhang Cundao entered the capital governor's mansion in Beijing. He Wenhui had to wait for He Wenhui to make arrangements, so he simply promoted him.
As for Chahan, needless to say, Yunnan Keding, now only Liaodong is left to be an eyesore, so it is natural to use Chahan to appease and urge Naha to come out, there are two or three days to write nasty letters to Lao Zhu, so hurry up and donate Let the soil fall.
Not long after, he commanded his colleague Shang Honghai to meet him. After the ceremony, he handed in a thick stack of sorted secret letters. Since he was going to travel, he had to understand and arrange things in advance.
Zhu Biao didn't look at it in a hurry but asked: "Mao Xiang hasn't come back yet?"
"Return to Your Highness, Commander Mao will probably return to Beijing in the next two days."
Looked up at the prince: "Most of the errands in the pro-military captain's mansion are now carried by the junior general. After the commander returns?"
This is a question I have to ask, if His Royal Highness is in Beijing, that’s fine. I don’t think Mao Xiang has the guts to come here to break the taboo, but His Highness is away from Beijing, and Mao Xiang is the serious commander of the pro-military Duwei’s Mansion.
He is a fellow who is still inexperienced, but he may not be able to stop others from taking power. After all, it is justified and no one can make a mistake. The subordinates he promoted these days are nothing more than Mao Xiang, but Mao Xiang single-handedly promoted him. Yes, he doesn't have that much time or power to clean up.
"If he wants to take care of the errands in the Ming Dynasty, he will let him, and the rest of the places are arranged by the palace."
"No." Shang Honghai heaved a sigh of relief. Although most of the rights were about to be given up, the important part was kept anyway, so His Highness would not be afraid of forgetting him.
"Don't cut off the contacts with Dongying. You can also arrange a few companies to cross the sea and establish roots to do business. Don't we already have several counties over there?"
"Your Highness is wise, the last general will arrange this."
After Liaodong came Koryo, and after Koryo, it was time to wait for the opportunity to settle down in Dongying. Even if it was difficult to govern for a while, it had to maintain its troubled times, so as to consume its people.
Zhu Biao found out the secret letter sent by Tang Ding. In addition to the daily greetings and reports, the letter also told Zhu Biao something that surprised him.
The so-called Yezo are the ethnic groups that originally lived in Hokkaido, Sakhalin Island, and the Thousand Islands. Their appearance and customs are quite different from those of the Japanese people. The Japanese people regard them as foreign and alien. Kill the Ainu people.
The letter also explained in detail that the appearance of Eizu is indeed different from ordinary people. The men have thick hair and the women have tattoos on their faces.
Zhu Biao didn't know much about the so-called Ainu people, so he didn't delay driving them. Dead wood and rocks are still useful, not to mention a nation that has a long-standing blood feud with Dongying.
There was no rush to reply, and I read Tang Ding's report carefully, and then read Lan Yu's secret letter again. Maybe the sky is high and the birds are flying, and the sea is wide and the fish is leaping. Insightful, which is really rare for Sapphire.
Zhu Biaozi is also happy. Sapphire has various problems, but this does not hinder her innate talent and terror on the battlefield. Da Ming has no shortage of generals now, but in 20 or 30 years, he will be short of them. He needs such a Mesozoic The handsome man sits in town.
Although there are rising stars such as Xu Yungong and Feng Cheng, the Ming Dynasty has a vast territory, where there is no need for generals in all directions, where there is no need for a handsome man to set up an expedition to the capital's key areas, those who can win thousands are easy to get, and those who can win hundreds of thousands are rare, and those who can win hundreds of thousands can rule the world is even more rare in the world.
As for those who must overcome the battle and win the battle, the more the better, they are rare in ancient times, and they can only pay homage to the Temple of King Wucheng.
