Ming Dynasty: Evolution from snake to national guardian beast

Chapter 143 "Yes!! It's him!!!"

The 700,000-strong army led by Li Jinglong also suffered minimal losses.

In comparison, the impact on the people in Shandong, Hebei and other places was weakened to the extreme. For this reason, the Ming Dynasty's Guo Zuo unknowingly continued for another fifty years.

These are all Bai Chu's contribution. Now that so much luck has been converted into cultivation, Bai Chu suddenly felt the feeling of luck filling his body, which almost made Bai Chu burst.

After a short period of practice, Bai Chu was finally able to break through the late stage of transformation and reach the completion of transformation.

Seeing that his cultivation level was still growing, Bai Chu simply exchanged several bottles of Shui Yuan Dan from the system for increasing his mana, and planned to take this opportunity to directly attack the Mirror of Divine Movement.

He has been practicing for a long time, and just when Bai Chu was intoxicated with the wonderful feeling of growing magical power, he was about to transform into Dzogchen.

But suddenly there was a riot of luck, which made Bai Chu vomit blood.

Bai Chu, who looked confused, opened his eyes. After meditating for a while to calm his disordered breath, Bai Chu directly started calculating with his right hand. He wanted to see who dared to hit him at this time.

Stop his practice.

“Not good!! Daming is in trouble!!”

But this doesn’t mean I don’t know, it’s a surprise. He didn't expect that ten years would pass by just closing and opening his eyes. This was really unbelievable.

What's even worse is that Bai Chu found out the reason for his backlash, which was that Tianming was about to suffer.

When Bai Chu calculated that the Ming Dynasty would be in disaster, he immediately stood up without hesitation, rushed out of the cave, and flew straight towards Yingtian City.

Qianqing Palace, Nuange.

Since Zhu Di ascended the throne, he moved to Qianqing Palace, and Nuange was where Zhu Di handled government affairs.

Of course, this is also where the small group of Zhu Di's cabinet usually works together.

Today's cabinet still has San Yang as its backbone, with Jian Yi, Xia Yuanji, and Jie Jin advising Zhu Di and reviewing memorials.

Zhu Gaochi was also taken by Zhu Di every day to handle government affairs together.

After the supervision of Princess Yan and Bai Chu, Zhu Gaochi's figure has slimmed down to the level of a normal person, and he is no longer the fat man he was before.

Zhu Di valued Zhu Gaochi very much because he was the prince recommended by Bai Chu.

When Zhu Di and Bai Chu discussed the matter of the crown prince, Bai Chu did not keep it secret like other courtiers. After all, Bai Chu's identity was there and he did not need to hide it.

The relationship between Bai Chu and Zhu Di is more like a cooperation, or the relationship between an investor and an investee.

The investor is Bai Chu. As long as Zhu Di inherits the throne and the descendants of the Zhu family don't do too much in the future, ensuring that the Zhu family can last for thousands of years, Bai Chu will make a lot of money.

Therefore, Bai Chu naturally hopes that his successors will be as good as possible.

There is no doubt that Ming Renzong Zhu Gaochi is an ideal benevolent king. Although he has occasional flaws, Bai Chu is confident that he can make Zhu Gaochi make up for these flaws.

It was precisely because of Bai Chu's recommendation that Zhu Di, without any hesitation, made Zhu Gaochi the prince. Without giving Zhu Gaoxu a chance, he made Zhu Gaoxu the King of Han and vassaled Shandong.

Zhu Gaochi did not disappoint Zhu Di. The combination of their father and son is a bit like the combination of Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao.

But Zhu Di didn't have Zhu Yuanzhang's desire to have absolute control over everything, and Zhu Gaochi was soft on the outside but strong on the inside, so he was not just accommodating to Zhu Di.

Therefore, Zhu Gaochi was more deeply involved in the government affairs of the Ming Dynasty.

However, this is what Zhu Di is happy to see. After all, he has the right to approve the red and the right to seal, and he is the final decision-maker.

Zhu Gaochi, San Yang, Xie Jin and others were all just Zhu Di's tools, helping him maintain the rule of this huge empire. On this day, several people met again to discuss the floods in Jiangxi, how to provide disaster relief, how many victims there were, and how much food should be provided.

Zhu Di sat high on the dragon chair and just closed his eyes lightly, as if he didn't care about it at all.

Then, no matter how Zhu Di behaves

On 1.8, under the discussion of San Yang, Xia Yuanji, Zhu Gaochi and others, all the things needed for relief were quickly drawn up and then written into the memorial, which was finally handed over to Zhu Di's desk.

When Zhu Gaochi came to Zhu Di with the memorial, Zhu Di gently opened his eyes, glanced at the memorial in Zhu Gaochi's hand, and said slowly:

"Bring the prefect of Ji'an to the capital. I want to know how much money he has embezzled over the years!"

Ji'an is the hardest hit area by this flood.

Obviously, Zhu Di was not asleep at all just now, he was just pretending, and every move of the cabinet was under his nose.

After saying this, Zhu Di scrawled the word "quasi" on the memorial with a red pen, stamped it with a jade seal, and sent it to the Ministry of Household Affairs to prepare for disaster relief.

Under this working model, if a disaster occurs anywhere, it can be dealt with quickly as long as it is reported to the central government.

The simple and efficient governing team was also one of the reasons why it was so prosperous during the Yongle period.

Just when the cabinet members were about to deal with another memorial, a Xiao Huangmen hurried in from outside the palace and reported to Zhu Di out of breath:

"Reporting to the Emperor, there is a young man outside the palace who wants to see the Emperor. He said that he is an old friend of the Emperor's palace!!" in the Nuan Pavilion.

After Zhu Di heard the report from the young eunuch, he was stunned. Ten years had passed since the Battle of Jingnan. How could he still have any old friends?

Suddenly, Zhu Di seemed to remember something, and asked in disbelief:

"How old is that person?"

Zhu Di's voice was trembling, full of expectations, but he seemed to be afraid of disappointment and felt extremely uneasy.

"He looks very young, in his twenties at most, but he has the status of an emperor."

"That's right!! It's him!!!"

Zhu Di's originally worried expression suddenly turned into one of great surprise. He immediately slapped the case and said loudly:

"Invite him in quickly."

"Forget it, I'll go and invite you myself."

Seeing Zhu Di walking out from behind the imperial court, everyone present was confused, especially Yang Rong and Yang Pu. They had no idea who Zhu Di was talking about.

An old friend from Jingnan who is in his twenties? Isn’t this obviously a liar?

We must know that ten years have passed since the Battle of Jingnan. Could it be that this person participated in the Battle of Jingnan with the emperor more than ten years ago?

Thinking about it, it seems unreliable, but Zhu Di looked extremely excited.

Of those present, perhaps only Zhu Gaochi and Yang Shiqi knew who the man outside the palace was.

They didn't expect that after ten years, this man would finally appear again.

Zhu Gaochi, Yang Shiqi and others followed Zhu Di and hurried from Qianqing Palace to the outside of the palace gate.

When Zhu Di saw the familiar dark red figure at the palace gate, Zhu Di's eyes couldn't help but turn red.

Zhu Di is a man of gentle temperament. From his treatment of the person who helped him bring peace to justice, it can be seen that he and his father are not from the same place.

Under Zhu Di's men, both Zhang Yu and Zhu Neng all died a good death, and Zhu Di was extremely generous to them during his lifetime.

He is a person who misses old friendships. Zhu Di misses Bai Chu, the first contributor to the Jingnan crisis, very much.
