Daming: Mixed in Dangzhi County, Beiping

"Yes, Your Highness!"

The postman steward was an old soldier who acted decisively. He responded, took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Zhu Gaochi.

Zhu Gaochi frowned slightly and picked up the letter.

Although the letter was crumpled, it was intact and showed no signs of being opened.

The postman steward said with a sneer on his face, "Your Highness, please forgive me. Siming Mansion is mostly chieftains and there are not many gentry, so when the postman came back, he put this envelope directly into his arms.

Fortunately, Siming Mansion didn't have any goods, so the postman didn't need to carry a mailbox and put the letter directly in his arms without being found by the thieves! "

"Didn't find an opportunity?"

Zhu Gaochi couldn't help but frown again, "In this case, this letter is not so important!"

The steward nodded subconsciously.

"But if it's not important, why did they put so much effort into destroying all those letters?"

With that said, Zhu Gaochi had already opened the envelope and read it.

"Ok?"

After seeing the content above clearly, Zhu Gaochi's pupils suddenly tightened and his face turned gloomy.

"Has this matter been revealed?"

"Your Highness's wishes?"

The steward was stunned.

Zhu Gaochi said solemnly: "As for the envelope being deliberately damaged and the letter being delivered to us, did the postmen all know about each other and tell the public?"

The steward realized something and hurriedly said: "Reporting to His Majesty the Crown Prince, many letters were deliberately destroyed and stolen at the same time. Many postmen did know each other.

However, only the postman of Siming Mansion knew that such a letter was left out.

Don't worry, Your Highness, the villain and others are all veterans, and they can keep their mouths shut when encountering such unusual things! "

"That's good!"

Zhu Gaochi felt relieved and said: "Go back and explain it to them and tell them not to talk about it to the outside world. Losing the mailed items is a shame to the post office. We must find out and take revenge severely.

In addition, I specifically asked the postman of Siming Mansion to keep it strictly confidential! "

"Little man obeys!"

The steward responded hurriedly.

"I will report this letter to my father!"

Zhu Gaochi said again and walked out.

"Report to His Majesty?"

Behind him, the steward's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly realized that this letter seemed to be more important than he thought.

So, the seriousness of this matter...

The postman walked out quickly.

……

"Is this true?"

In Fengtian Hall, after reading the envelope in his hand, Zhu Di looked at Zhu Gaochi with a gloomy expression.

"Dad, this letter was given to the postman by an unknown person and sent to the capital. As for whether it is true, I don't know!"

Zhu Gaochi bowed slightly and saluted, "However, since someone has gone to such great lengths to prevent these letters from reaching the capital, it means that what is written in this letter should be true!"

Zhu Di said: "Did you know that when Emperor Taigaozu was on the throne, King Annan also sent people to the capital to present many rare treasures to Emperor Taigaozu."

Zhu Gaochi frowned slightly, "That's strange. How could there be a rebellion in the Annan Kingdom in just a few years? How could the Chen family of the Annan royal family be massacred?"

Zhu Di shouted towards the outside, "Come here, please tell me Zhao Hu, the commander of the Jinyi Guards!"

"The slaves obey the orders!"

A waiter responded and walked out quickly.

In less than a moment, the sound of rapid footsteps came from outside.

soon.

Zhao Hu, the commander of Jin Yiwei, walked in hastily.

"The humble minister Zhao Hu has met His Majesty and His Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Well, get up!"

Zhu Di waved his hand slowly, "Zhao Hu, have you and the Jinyi Guards reported anything abnormal during this period of time in Guangxi and Yunnan?"

"This……"

Zhao Hu was shocked. Could it be that thieves appeared again in Yunnan and Guangxi?

"Your Majesty, everything is normal in Yunnan and Guangxi, and I have not received any reports!"

"No?"

Zhu Di snorted coldly and threw the letter down.

"Look carefully, the children of the Annan royal family who escaped have no choice but to hand their letters to the Dibao postman to deliver them in order to survive!

For such a big matter, you, the Jinyi Guards, are my eyes and ears, but now, you still don’t know anything. What’s the use of you? "

"Your Majesty, calm down!"

Zhao Hu quickly picked up the letter and read it.

The more he looked, the darker his expression became, and then he took a deep breath.

"Your Majesty, during this period of time, Wei Chen has often received reports from Yunnan and Guangxi Jinyiwei, but no one has reported this matter to Wei Chen!"

Zhu Di stared at Zhao Hu closely and said in a deep voice: "Is there someone pretending to be a descendant of the Chen family of the Annan royal family to tease me?" Zhao Hu trembled and quickly apologized, "Your Majesty, please calm down. I will send the minister to you now." People rushed to Yunnan and Guangxi overnight to investigate the matter!"

"If this is true, could it be that all the Jin Yiwei in Yunnan and Guangxi were deceived by the thieves?"

Zhu Di asked coldly again.

"This……"

Zhao Hu's expression became even more gloomy, "Your Majesty, this time I personally will lead the people there!"

"It's better to send your close associates to investigate first. If the dignified commander of the Jinyiwei is harmed, it will not only be the Jinyiwei, but also my face will be lost!"

Zhao Hu's face suddenly turned red, but facing the furious Zhu Di, he did not dare to refute.

"Wei Chen asked Wang Zhen, the governor of the town, to lead the people there!"

Wang Zhen was not only a military commander, but also a historian, judge, and strategist. He was also a trusted confidant of Zhu Di.

Last year, Zhu Di transferred him from Peiping to Jinyiwei. This year, he was promoted to Jinyiwei Town Governor, from a fourth-rank official!

"Can!"

Zhu Di nodded slowly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Hu breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time he couldn't help but feel a little sad.

Even though he has the heart to be loyal to the king, His Majesty no longer trusts him. It is all in vain!

After returning, Zhao Hu summoned Wang Zhen and informed him of the matter.

"Please rest assured, Commander, I will investigate this matter clearly!"

Wang Zhen responded with a solemn expression without any hesitation.

Immediately, he took a group of people and set off secretly.

Apart from anything else, those thieves who dare to touch His Highness the Prince's newspaper postman will die!

In the capital of Nuo Da, a Jin Yiwei Zhenfu envoy disappeared, plus hundreds of Jin Yiwei, and no one noticed it.

Even Guo An didn't know.

These days.

Guo An only went to Jiangjunshan Workshop every two days to check out his 20,000 acres of land.

Among them, 15,000 acres are planted with rice, 2,000 acres are planted with vegetables, and the remaining 3,000 acres are the research sites of Guo Bingyong and Guo Zhi.

The further we go, the more difficult it will be to improve rice and some fruits and vegetables.

However, everyone in the entire capital respected Guo Bingyong and Guo Zhi.

Often, many old men come all the way here to visit Guo Bingyong, Guo Zhi and others, so that there are more and more disciples of Guo Bingyong, Guo Zhi and others.

Life is much more chic than Guo An's!

"Fourth brother, sixth brother, what happened to the horses and the plants we brought back?"

"Back to the Marquis, I have followed your instructions and taken good care of it day and night, but it has not yet sprouted!"

"Excuse me, brothers!"

"The Marquis has come to show me and other brothers their achievements. It's too late for us to be grateful!"

"Haha, my family, why should we feel such pity?"

……

As for Jiangjunshan Workshop on the other side of the river, business is getting more and more prosperous.

Especially in the rubber tire workshop, there were a lot of people queuing up.

It's a pity that in the first half of the year, only some related households could buy a carriage with rubber tires!

For example, those vassal princes, marquises, and many nobles and ministers in the court.

And in the medical hall.

It has waterways extending in all directions along the Qinhuai River, plus passenger ships for transportation.

The number of patients in the medical hall comes one after another.

As for the military academy?

Guo An could only stand outside and look around from a distance, listening to the shouts coming from the military academy, but he couldn't get in.

Moreover, with Xu Huizu and Li Jinglong watching over the military academy, he felt relieved.

Needless to say, Xu Huizu, even Li Jinglong, was familiar with the art of war since he was a child, and he was the next generation military general of the Ming Dynasty that Zhu Yuanzhang worked hard to cultivate.

At least, his theoretical ability is top-notch among the generals of the Ming Dynasty!

Of course, what comforts Guo An the most is that Jiangjunshan Gongfang Street has become completely prosperous.

"In another year, the people of Jiangjun Mountain will be completely wealthy!"

Standing on the bridge, Guo An looked yearning.

On the side, Xu Yong looked helpless.

Just now, he also heard that every family in Jiangjun Mountain has at least twenty taels of money saved.

"Xu Yong, what's your expression?"

Guo An was a little dissatisfied.

"Master Hou, how many people in the Ming Dynasty are so wealthy?"

"There are many in Beiping Mansion!"

Xu Yong: "..."

"Marquis Dinghai, His Majesty has summoned you to the palace for an audience!"

At this time, a somewhat familiar waiter ran over from a distance, panting.
