The corruption case of the Hangzhou prefect was finally resolved, and the criminals received the punishment they deserved. In the end, the court sent a new prefect, which also meant that the whole thing had ended. Liu Yue'e and Cao Jia finally got married. Zhu Yunwen even received their wedding cake. Although they did not attend their wedding, they gave them a big gift. It turned out that Zhu Yunwen actually gave them all the land near the academy and gave them a sum of funds to the Hangzhou prefect, asking him to build a few more books for the academy. This is the predecessor of the Hangzhou academy. Zhu Yunwen never thought that the establishment of this big academy, the most important in the Ming Dynasty, would have been a contribution.

"Yue'er, do you have any place you want to go?"

"Where do you want to go?"

Luo Yue thought for a while and said, "I want to go and see the sea..."

"Yue'er, have you not seen the sea?"

"I really want to see the sea. I heard from my master that the sea is the most beautiful place, so I want to go and see it..."

Luo Yue told Zhu Yunwen that her master turned out to be a fisherman's daughter. By chance, he saved an injured general. They knew each other and fell in love and finally got together. However, when she was the happiest time, her husband and family were all killed overnight. All of this was the work of the King of Yan. In order to realize his ambition, he actually killed all those who opposed him. In the end, even Luo Yue's master could not escape the King of Yan's killer.

"Yue'er, don't be sad anymore. Your master doesn't want to see you like this."

"Your Highness the Crown Prince..."

Zhu Yunwen hugged Luo Yue into her arms, gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said very gently: "Let's go and see this beautiful ocean today..."

Zhu Yunwen decided to take Luo Yue to see the most beautiful sea. Zhoushan County is the place I want the most. It has the most beautiful beach and is only a day away from Hangzhou City.

"Your Highness, please think twice, it is the fiefs of the two princes."

"Two princes?"

"Zhang Zhu Gui and Shu Xian Wang Zhu Chun..."

King Jian Zhu Gui and King Xian Zhu Chun of Shu Xian Zhu Chun were both born by Concubine Guo Hui. Concubine Guo Hui is the only surviving concubine and one of the most favored concubines. When Wanguo came to pay homage to Concubine Guo Hui, he was one of the concubines who sat on the phoenix. You can imagine how high her status was. This is why Li Lu didn't want Zhu Yunwen to go to Zhoushan County. After all, he didn't want to see a conflict.

"General Li, have you forgotten the purpose of our coming out this time?"

"Of course I haven't forgotten about it."

"The emperor violated the law and committed the same crime as the common people. This is the emperor's words. Do you think I must be afraid of them?"

Zhu Yunwen looked like he knew there was a tiger in the mountain and was walking towards Tiger Mountain. Li Lu had to bite his teeth, but they didn't know that this was an adventure. Soon they arrived at a fishing village and heard Li Lu say that this was the most lively fishing village in Zhoushan County, but they found that the fishing village was very deserted. After watching for a long time, they could not see a docking fishing boat.

"How could this happen..."

Everyone was very curious when they heard Li Lu's words, but in the end it was Zhu Yunwen who heard what Li Lu meant.

"General Li, is it that something happened in this fishing village?"

"Your Highness, I don't know what happened, but there is something strange. This place is obviously the largest fishing port nearby, but why can't I see a fishing boat entering the port?"

Luo Yue discovered something even more strange, that is, there was not a single one of the beautiful beaches going to the sea to play in the water. What made her even more strange was that there were soldiers guarding this beach. The soldiers looked at Zhu Yunwen and the others, and finally their eyes fell on the flag of the imperial pharmacy. The soldiers actually fled in panic. It seemed that they were very afraid of Zhu Yunwen and the others.

Li Lu immediately said understandingly: "Your Highness, I think they discovered us..."

"General Li, you mean they see through our identities..."

"It should be like this..."

Li Lu's guess was correct at all. After all, Zhoushan County is only more than 100 miles away from Hangzhou City. The actions of Prince Zhu Yunwen have long been spread here. It is not surprising that those who are in the army recognize them.

"General Li, don't pay attention to them, find a place to rest."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Li Lu directly booked an inn. This cola made the shopkeeper badly. After all, he rarely encountered such generous guests, but he did not expect that these people were actually from the government.

"Shopkeeper, don't be afraid, we are from the Imperial Pharmacy..."

"So many of you are noble people from the palace..."

"What do you call metacarpal bones?"

"Official, my name is Li Dafu. The third one in the family is ranked. Everyone calls me Li Laosan."

"It turned out to be Manager Li."

Zhu Yunwen took advantage of a hundred taels of gold, which is equivalent to the income of this inn for a whole year. Li Laosan was so quick to see it, which also shows that he was already moved.

"Shopkeeper Li, just tell me what happened in this fishing village, and this ingot of gold is yours."

"this……"

"Shopkeeper Li, we are people in the palace, and no one dares to cause trouble for you."

After hearing this, Li Laosan gritted his teeth and took the ingot of gold from Zhu Yunwen. Then he slowly explained why the fishing village became like this. Zhu Yunwen had never expected that the fishing village would become like this, which was caused by the emperor's ban.

"You are talking about the ban on seas..."

"After the emperor issued this ban, a lot of taxes were added here at once, such as taxes on seafarers, fishing boat taxes, etc. These harsh taxes have made the fishermen breathless. Sometimes fishermen are not enough to pay taxes after a boat of fish."

Zhu Yunwen finally understood the reason, but at this moment a group of officers and soldiers rushed into the inn. The leader was the magistrate of Zhoushan County. He walked over and finally he bowed to Zhu Yunwen.

"Zhoushan County Magistrate Chen Chang kowtowed to the Crown Prince, thousands of years old..."

"Mr. Chen, get up and talk!"

"Thank you, Prince..."

The arrival of this guy Chen Changxing is just the right time. Zhu Yunwen has many things to answer, especially about the ban on the sea. Zhu Yunwen wants to get more information from him, but Zhu Yunwen is a little hungry now, so it is not too late to interrogate him slowly after dinner.

Zhu Yunwen smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, I have prepared the best food and drinks. I wonder if you are willing to accompany you."

"This is the honor of the empress!"

Zhu Yunwen soon learned about Chen Changxing from Li Lu. It is said that Chen Changxing is a famous fence-in-law. As long as he uses both kindness and power to this guy, there is nothing he can't ask.
