Take a plane to the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 453 The Prince's News

"If so!"

When Zhu Changyuan stretched out his hand, the picture in front of him shattered!

I was tired and plopped down on the Gobi full of pebbles.

"Hey! No!" Zhu Changyuan looked at the back and bottom of his buttocks, there were no pebbles, and the ground was still a little wet and greasy!

Feeling a sea breeze blowing on his body, he raised his head suddenly, stunned!

The surrounding original Gobi Desert is gone, replaced by tropical rainforest, full of primeval forests, plant vines everywhere, not far from a stream, the fish in the stream jump up one by one,

Zhu Changyuan had obviously experienced a lot of running just now, but now he is like a big bull full of strength, and he doesn't feel tired at all.

Ahead, there is a path with no end in sight.

Zhu Changyuan walked out along the path little by little, and after a while, the hope in his heart reappeared.

Liu Rushi, it's her again!
Unwilling to give up, Zhu Changyuan speeded up and rushed out of the woods. After running for less than 10 minutes, he saw Liu Rushi's figure again, floating less than ten meters in front of him, walking forward calmly.

Then, Zhu Changyuan pursued all the way, and after running for more than half an hour, he still couldn't catch up with her.

Continue to run, finally out of the jungle, came to an ancient broken altar.

In the middle of the valley, build a huge altar, which looks like four or five pyramids, and surrounds an altar-shaped square. The square is full of scattered stones, headless stone sculptures that have been pushed, scattered all over the place. Stone beads, stone pillars in all directions, and occasionally one or two statues' heads and ears could be seen shattered all over the place.

However, even though the square is scattered, there is not a single weed or small tree to be seen.

After Liu Rushi rushed out of the forest, he walked directly to the altar square, and immediately, a thin film of light appeared around the square.

Zhu Changyuan wanted to go in, but he couldn't break the membrane no matter what, cutting with a knife, stabbing with a sword, or burning with fire didn't work.

"Buzz!"

Zhu Changyuan seemed to hear the sound of a chime, and then all the gravel, stone pillars, and stone carvings in the entire square flew up and danced in a mess.

Zhu Changyuan was very worried that those gravels would hurt Liu Rushi, and he was even more worried. He wanted to break through the light film and enter, but unfortunately, he was unable to enter because of his excellent strength.

"Buzz!"

The sound was still ringing, and more stones and stone pillars flew up.

However, those flying stones seemed to have eyes, and they all avoided Liu Rushi.

"Kick!"

Following a series of noises, the scattered stone pillars stood up automatically under the entrustment of a strange force, and the fallen stone statue stood upright again.

The stones that fell down many years ago flew back to the original place to make up for the lack of statues and stone pillars.

With Zhu Changyuan's stunned expression, 3 minutes later, a complete square with statues appeared in front of his eyes.

Thick and tall stone pillars, solemn statues, a neat and level square, and the spotless floor tiles, all of these seem to set off the extremely dignified Liu Rushi in the center of the altar.

The sun seemed to have just risen from the east, casting a golden layer on the majestic altar square.

Liu Rushi walked slowly on the altar square, and stepped onto the middle altar step by step.

"Woo~~~" Zhu Changyuan's ears suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and then he heard an extremely weird cry.

Then, Liu Rushi turned around, revealing a face as white as jade, looking up at the sky, with long hair flying.

This. . . .

Zhu Changyuan clearly saw that although this woman was nine points similar to Liu Rushi in appearance, there was still one point of difference.

The difference in that share is the difference between a god and a mortal.

Zhu Changyuan felt that the woman in front of him was more like a fairy, extraordinary and refined.

"Where is my soul?" The woman looked at the sky and opened her mouth to say four words.

Then, a black vortex like a black hole suddenly appeared on the altar, spinning extremely fast.

Liu Rushi stared at the whirlpool for two seconds, then suddenly jumped into the whirlpool.

"Don't!" Zhu Changyuan grabbed forward vigorously, but it was too late to stop him.

However, at the same time, he also discovered that the film of light that originally blocked him had disappeared, disappeared.

"Yes!" Zhu Changyuan ran down towards the altar, and ran to the altar in three steps at a time. Looking at the black vortex as thick as a bucket, he jumped in without any scruples.

Immediately, heart-piercing, Zhu Changyuan's whole body seemed to be oppressed by something and he couldn't breathe.

"Go away!"

After holding back his breath for a long time, he suddenly pushed the obstacle in front of his chest. Zhu Changyuan suddenly woke up and found himself lying on the dragon chair, with both hands just flipping the quilt covering him.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Cao Huachun ran to Zhu Changyuan in panic, looked at his sweaty face and pale face, and said nervously, "What's wrong, Your Majesty, do you want to tell the imperial physician?"

Zhu Changyuan regained his composure, waved his hands, and said, "No need! I just had a nightmare!" Looking at the slightly pale sky outside the window, and at the candles on the desk, he asked Cao Huachun, "What time is it now?" .”

Cao Huachun rolled up his sleeves, glanced at his big red watch, and said to Zhu Changyuan, "Return to Your Majesty, it's 05:30 in the morning!"

Zhu Changyuan looked at Cao Huachun's red watch, and couldn't help recalling the old past in his heart. He puffed it out, and then said: "I feel like I just slept for a while, why did it pass overnight, I don't remember drinking too much last night!"

I drank with Zhu Yujian last night, but I didn't drink much!

"Forget it, I see that the lights in the side hall on the platform are still on, let's go to the side hall with me!" Exercise your muscles and bones, and think about the previous dream while walking outside.

After thinking about it, I couldn't think of a reason, so I had to attribute it to the ranks of nightmares.

The dawn of winter is extremely cold, and the ground is slightly covered with a layer of hoarfrost.

Wearing casual clothes, Zhu Changyuan walked step by step on the frost and snow, and arrived on the platform in a short time.

The platform hall is generally a place where the emperor and his ministers discuss matters, while the side hall is regarded as a palace residence of the cabinet, which is convenient for communicating important military affairs to the emperor at any time. Usually, at least one cabinet minister is on night shift here.

"Squeak!" The door of the side hall was opened, Zhu Changyuan looked up and saw that Xue Guoguan, who was on duty inside, was burying his head in writing, while Jiang Fengyuan was dozing off in a chair.

"Your Majesty!" Xue Guo was slightly surprised when he saw Zhu Changyuan coming in.

"En!" Zhu Changyuan looked at Xue Guoguan and said, "Xue Aiqing has worked hard! Didn't you sleep all night?"

Xue Guoguan said: "I fell asleep in the first half of the night, let Lord Jiang rest for a while in the second half of the night!"

Jiang Fengyuan, who was dozing off on the chair, also woke up and saluted Zhu Changyuan.

Zhu Changyuan waved his hands to let them sit down, and said: "Okay, don't salute." Then he turned to Cao Huachun, "Mr. Cao, ask the imperial dining room to prepare two bowls of hot mutton soup and bring them over to relieve the coldness of the two adults!"

Cao Huachun took the order to go out, Xue Guoguan and Jiang Fengyuan thanked him.

Zhu Changyuan looked at what Xue Guoguan wrote for a while, nodded, and said, "That's right! Only by making up for the old Sixth Ministry and the new Sixth Ministry can the whole country be governed well!"

In fact, when Zhu Changyuan proposed the concept of the new six ministries, the ministers have always opposed it. Many people's opposition is not innovation, but fear that once the new six ministries are established, their interests will be squeezed out.

After all, as long as a sensible person knows, the new six departments are all new tricks, although important, but no matter which courtier can't do it well, there must be Zhu Changyuan's old department to fill in.

Once those people from Riyue Island came to court, wouldn't the world be in chaos.

After all, none of these people in the court were born as nobles, and those on Sun Moon Island are just pirates!

"Yes, it's just that the courtiers are not very familiar with these things, so it takes time to accept them!" Xue Guoguan was obviously speaking for Zhang Sizhi.

Zhu Changyuan smiled and did not answer, but said in reverse: "It is because you are not familiar with it that you need to understand it, to be familiar with it, to keep up with the pace of the times, and to cultivate yourself!"

"If you can't keep up with the pace of the times, you will be abandoned by this world, not by me!"

It's obvious, Xue Guoguan, don't talk to Zhang Sizhi. It's not that I don't need him, but that he has been abandoned by the times.

Xue Guoguan and Jiang Fengyuan shook for no reason.

Zhu Changyuan went on to say: "What I mean is to let the people from Riyue Island come over to serve as the ministers of the various ministries first. Everyone is familiar with each other and learns from each other. If there is a suitable candidate in the future, they will be replaced naturally."

"Also!" Zhu Changyuan knocked on the table and said: "The organizational structure of the cabinet, what I mean is that when the cabinet ministers are selected in the future, each of the twelve yamen will appoint one person, a total of twelve cabinet elders, you What do you think?"

Xue Guoguan smiled wryly, looked at Zhu Changyuan and felt a little powerless, and said, "I would like to obey the holy edict!"

Zhu Changyuan did this not simply to hold the power of the entire country in his own hands, nor to make Xue Guoguan and Jiang Fengyuan empty, but for a deeper consideration.

For example, the transparency of administration and the supervision of the whole people. The more people participate in core politics, the more transparent the affairs of the cabinet will be.

According to Zhu Changyuan's vision, in order to break the old system, he also wants to set up a tenure system, stipulating the maximum number of years a certain position can be held, and a retirement system.

He even wanted to take over the responsibility assessment management system, the biggest killer in modern social management.

However, in order to prevent the officials from being scared away, he had to infiltrate a little bit, and he couldn't act too hastily.

"Okay, then the cabinet will draw up the decree, I won't disturb you, you go on!" After Zhu Changyuan finished speaking, he stood up and was about to leave.

Behind him, Xue Guoguan sent Zhu Changyuan to the door all the way, and suddenly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I have a very urgent matter, please play it. I just learned about the former prince Zhu Cihong, and I planned to play it again this morning...".

Before Xue Guoguan finished speaking, Zhu Changyuan snatched the memorial.
