In August, Zhu Xu arrived in Nanzhili and met with Chen Qiyu and other officials in Yingtian Prefecture. Then he walked everywhere in Nanzhili.

This is the most lush place in the Ming Dynasty, and the name of "Nanjing" is more than just a name.

Chen Qiyu, the governor of Nanzhili, the deputy leader of the Qingtian Group, and Qin Zhengyi, the senator of Nanzhili, accompanied Zhu Xu and others, and were sailing on the Qinhuai River.

The two sides of the Qinhuai River are like the pavilions and towers in the past, with bright lights and wine, and the faint sound of silk and bamboos permeated the water, which lasted for a long time.

Chen Qiyu didn't expect Zhu Xu to come here, and his expression was a little embarrassed, and he explained: "Your Majesty, since the fifth year of Jingzheng, most of the fewer churches on the Qinhuai River. I wanted to close these churches last year, but in the end I kept some."

The so-called "food, sex, nature" is better than making trouble everywhere with these church houses to give those who do nothing.

This is probably the idea of ​​Chen Qiyu, or even the entire Ming Dynasty management.

Brothels have always existed since ancient times and have their own reasons.

Zhu Xu had an optional attitude towards this matter and said without any objection: "You can do it if it is not true, but you must abide by the law. If someone sells his wife and daughters, rapes young children, or forces good men to become prostitutes, kills and robs, then you must not be forgiven! No one complained to me now. If one day someone brings a stolen paper to make things difficult for me, I will make things difficult for you."

Chen Qiyu bowed quickly and said, "Don't worry, yourselves, I will remember the sages and dare not slacken!"

The boat swayed and slowly wandered in the water. Li Xiangjun behind Zhu Xu handed a cup of tea to Zhu Xu and sat back quietly.

This time she took the opportunity to look for her relatives. She was brought to Beijing by Zhu Xu at the age of ten, and it has been nearly ten years in a flash.

Zhu Xu took the teacup and said without drinking it, "Nan Zhili is the most prosperous place in my Ming Dynasty. It affects my Ming Dynasty's foundation. It must have clear development, clear goals, and long-term plans. I only know how to be an official, but not how to develop. It's better not to have people without goals or plans. I have read the plan you submitted. To be honest, I am a little disappointed."

Speaking of this, Zhu Xu paused and took a sip of tea.

Chen Qiyu and Qin Zhengyi looked stern and bowed to listen carefully.

Zhu Xu held the teacup and looked at a Jiaofang with flags floating not far away, saying: "First, the city should expand, and be prepared to have more urban populations. Second, agriculture is the foundation and also a springboard. Don't lock people on the land, and move. Third, you should know where the advantages and disadvantages of a city's development are, make good use of strengths and weaknesses, and make bigger and stronger..."

Chen Qiyu and Qin Zhengyi listened carefully, not daring to be careless at all. The emperor did not speak easily, and he would be a question as soon as he spoke, and he would be tested in the future!

Zhu Xu said for a while and said in a summary: "Agricultural reform is in full swing. We all have one expectation of what will happen in the future. The other is sea trade. The development of sea trade has been accelerated rapidly with the court's 'Four Thousand Silver Plan'. You local officials, don't just watch the court's efforts, but also keep up and make good goals and plans. The development of agriculture and commerce cannot be separated from industry, including handicrafts such as silk and cloth, as well as semi-heavy industries such as mining and iron smelting. The court will continue to issue policies, and your local area must keep up, implement, and promote the progress of our Ming society... We cannot just focus on the Ming Dynasty, which is a big palm, and have a global vision. The world is so big, don't you want to go out for a walk?"

Chen Qiyu bowed and said in a stern manner: "I will remember your Majesty's words in my heart."

Qin Zhengyi didn't say much, and his qualifications were not enough.

Although he was the first senior official in the Zhengyuan Department to enter the provincial level, he was still an inconspicuous "small official" in the entire Ming Dynasty officialdom.

Similarly, although the Zhengyuan Department has entered the government and caused huge waves in the government and the country, it is still at the bottom and is not enough to influence the government and the government.

Zhu Xu seemed not to hear Chen Qiyu's words, and suddenly turned to Li Xiangjun and said, "What did that girl Yongning do? No one was seen this day."

Li Xiangjun sat not far from Zhu Xu, quiet and silent. Until Zhu Xu asked, he looked up and leaned forward, and said crisply: "The princess said she wanted to go to the tribute court, but she went early in the morning."

Zhu Xu shook his head and said, "This girl has an idea every day, and it's all three points of popularity. If you ask her to have dinner with me and the queen in the evening, if she doesn't come, I will beat her up."

Such a conversation is normal in the palace, and Li Xiangjun responded naturally as usual.

However, Chen Qiyu and Qin Zhengyi were a little nervous, wondering whether Zhu Xu's words were pointing out and beating them.

Zhu Xu took another sip of tea and was in a good mood. He said, "Qin Zhengyi, let's talk about Su Yanghang's three prefectures."

Qin Zhengyi immediately bowed and said with a decisive and neat tone, "Reply to Your Majesty, the land integration of Su Yanghang's three prefectures is still accelerating, and it is expected to be completed in the next year. Water conservancy facilities such as canals are also being accelerated as planned, and are expected to be completed in the next year. Agricultural tools, oxen, fertilizers, pesticides, etc. have been established and tendered for many commercial banks, and the supply is centralized, and the promotion is strived to be completed within three years, so that the court will not need to intervene in the command of the court in the future. At present, most of the household registration work of Su Yanghang's three prefectures has been carried out, with a total household registration of about 4.2 million, and the vacancies are about 3 million. I have written to the cabinet to request the integration of the population and supplement the shortage of Su Yanghang's three prefectures. Officials at all levels have basically been in place, and the requirements of the "new policy" are being continuously deepened..."

The reason why Su Yanghang Prefectures lack population is multifaceted. One is that land reclamation and the amount of land increases. The second is that land concentration is broken and utilization rate increases. After the division is divided, there will be a lot of residuals. The third is that the population decreases under various reasons, resulting in more land and fewer people.

Of course, overall, the land of the Ming Dynasty was far enough. The reason why the people could not survive was the reduction of production caused by natural disasters under the high concentration of land, and the exploitation of gentry and ruling classes was still increasing. This contradiction was irreconcilable, and officials forced the people to rebel.

Zhu Xu listened to Qin Zhengyi's words and looked slightly.

Qin Zhengyi was born in the third party of the Zhengyuan department. These three party are the continuation of old bureaucrats and the transition of new officials. They have the advantages and disadvantages of old bureaucrats and the enlightened attitude of new officials.

Zhu Xu was quite satisfied with Qin Zhengyi. He did things in real life. Zhu Xu nodded secretly when the reform of the three governments of "Su Yanghang" was reformed. The overall framework and implementation were somewhat beyond his expectations and he did a very good job.

Zhu Xu held the teacup and thought for a moment, saying, "Su Yanghang's three prefectures are just experiments. When you walk out a familiar and feasible path, not only these three prefectures, but also the Taihu area, can refer to this to promote the agricultural reform of our Ming Dynasty and achieve the goal of rich and destruction of the people..."

Hearing the three words "Ring the Taihu Lake", Qin Zhengyi's eyes lit up suddenly, his heart pounded wildly, and he said in a deep voice: "I obey the order."

Zhu Xu handed the teacup to Li Xiangjun behind him, looked at the bright lights and wine on both sides of the straits, and said, "Let's go. This is the Ten Mile School Court set up by Taizu Qin. Come with me to take a look."

Chen Qiyu and Qin Zhengyi's face suddenly changed. He opened his mouth and wanted to stop him, but he did not make a sound.

When the emperor went to the brothel, I don’t know how big a joke it would be when this was heard, and what kind of storm it would lead to.

But they all knew that the person in front of them was not looking for fun, and they probably really wanted to see him or had other purposes.

However, Li Xiangjun pursed her lips quietly. Her memory at Jiaofangsi was already very blurred and there were no acquaintances inside. But if you think about it carefully, it was not a good memory, so she was reluctant to go again.

Zhu Xu and others were wearing casual clothes and asked Li Xiangjun to change into men's clothes and enter a brothel.

While Zhu Xu was visiting the brothel, Queen Zhang Yun met a group of life-long wives from Nan Zhili, drank tea and chatted.

The emperor and the empress visited Nanzhili at the same time, which was an unprecedented great honor for Nanzhili. I wonder how many people were thinking about it and wanted to take this opportunity to fly to the sky.

Therefore, various things that express firm determination to the "New Deal" happen from time to time, as if they have become the consensus of everyone in Nanzhili.

Including when Empress Zhang Yun met these destiny wives, some nobles, high-ranking officials and wives and daughters kept silent, which were the benefits and changes brought by the "New Deal" and the "New Deal".

Zhang Yun has been the queen for many years. He is naturally able to deal with these things, always controlling the rhythm of the topic, and constantly guiding in "supporting husband and children" and "healing family virtues".

These women are also very talented, and they do their best to cooperate with Zhang Yun, and their performance is so sincere.

It took more than two hours to end the "tea party". After the person left, Zhang Yun rubbed his painful temple and let out a sigh of relief.

At this time, Yongning came in quietly from outside, looked at the tired Zhang Yun, and said with a smile: "Auntie, do you have a headache?"

Love the house and the mistress, Zhang Yun also loved this little niece very much. She sat up, smiled and shook her head and said, "Your uncle came to you early in the morning, but you ran away without a trace."

Yongning rolled his eyes, sat over and acted coquettishly, "Uncle the Emperor is more boring than the Emperor's Aunt. It's not as fun as a child, so I won't be affected by him."

Zhang Yun laughed and said, "Then tell me, did the person you like come with you this time?"

The little girl hugged Zhang Yun and smiled and said, "What kind of person you like, is still a child."

Zhang Yun had no choice but to do anything to check her, and she did not want to do anything. Instead, she was a bad thing. She had to say, "Okay, your mother, your uncle is worried about you, so you can anger them."

The little girl pouted and suddenly said, "Auntie, have you heard of it? Someone is going to establish a country overseas."

Zhang Yun's smile suddenly changed, and he straightened Yongning, stared at her, and said in a stern manner: "Who did you hear?"

How can such a traitorous thing to tolerate!

Yongning naturally knew that the matter was important, but he said in a casual tone: "When I was playing outside, a group of businessmen said that it seemed that someone had discovered a land without a border overseas. The remnants of the Donglin Party and the eunuch Party in the past seemed to want to support someone to be the emperor."

Zhang Yun frowned when he heard this, looked at Yongning seriously, raised his hand and attracted someone. After thinking for a moment, he waved his hand and said, "Your Majesty is back, tell me immediately."

Zhang Yun has always been a "friendly" image. He rarely talks about this palace. The palace maid's expression is slightly condensed and she responds immediately.

Xiao Yongning suddenly felt a little sleepy, shaking, acting coquettishly for a few times, and was about to go back to sleep.
