Back to Ming Dynasty as Zhu Biao

Chapter 84 Hu Weiyong Sends Food
Hu Weiyong went to Li Shanchang's prime minister's mansion early in the morning to ask him for advice.

"Weiyong, your Hu Peng is really ignorant, and he is so outspoken in front of His Highness the Crown Prince." Li Shanchang drew the last stroke on the desk with a pen.

"Prime Minister, how do you say that?" Hu Weiyong didn't understand for a moment.

"You are smart all your life, but you are confused for a while. Our Highness looks gentle and kind, but he is cruel in his bones. You and I are both from Huaixi. Let me show you the way."

Li Shanchang wrote a big word on the paper: "In the early years of the founding of the country, you came back from the north. Didn't you see the ruins and devastation? Your Majesty's frugality is not only reflected in food. According to the rules of the previous dynasty, the emperor's car The patriarch should be inlaid with gold, but His Majesty always uses copper instead.

You can see that the bed decorations in the palace are not decorated with carved dragons or phoenixes, they are completely like ordinary people from middle-class families. "

Hu Weiyong understood in his eyes that His Majesty's clothes were not inlaid with too many gold and silver threads.

From the Qin Dynasty to the present, in 2000, His Majesty's frugality is really unprecedented, and Hu Weiyong thinks it is too harsh.

Li Shanchang watched him listen in, stroked his beard, and said: "Look at what His Royal Highness was wearing that time, but hemp shoes woven by eunuchs!

It's close to walking, the road is far away, and you can only ride more than half of it on horseback. In terms of frugality, those harem ladies wash and wash their clothes, but your Hu Peng can talk, and he despises bad food.You still don't understand His Majesty's temper?Send some food to the North to show your heart. "

"But my family's food ... is not enough in the north." Hu Weiyong spread his hands and said helplessly.

"Sincerity is the most important thing." Li Shanchang nodded at him: "Your son has it, so go."

Back at the Hu Mansion, Hu Weiyong glared at Hu Peng, and said, "Pack the food and follow me into the palace immediately."

"Father, I... can't go here."

"How many times have I told you to be careful with your words and deeds, be careful with your words and deeds, and cause me trouble all day long."

"Father, just send it away. With the prestige of you and Prime Minister Li, your son will go to Suzhou and Hangzhou for a walk, and the food will come back. But I have to feed it now."

Hu Weiyong made a gesture to hit him, Hu Peng immediately rolled into the bed, took a breath of pain and said: "Father, father, I will earn money for you when my injury is healed."

"It's up to you, you prodigal bastard." Hu Weiyong ordered the housekeeper to pack food, then turned around and went into the house to change clothes and enter the palace.

Getting up early in the morning, Zhu Biao did some simple exercises, including boxing.

The sun shone on the vermilion palace walls, the maids and eunuchs came and went in a hurry, Zhu Biao looked at the small sky above his head.

"His Highness is alright?" Jin'er took a handkerchief to help him wipe off his sweat, put on his clothes, and smiled at Zhu Biao: "Your Highness, what do you want for breakfast today, Jin'er immediately ordered the dining room to prepare it."

Several court ladies passed by one after another, feeling that His Royal Highness in palace clothes punched so chicly.When they chat, they will talk about their opinions.

After leaving the gate of the courtyard, she saw Princess Lin'an bringing the two daughters of the Xu family over, and immediately bowed and left with a low voice.

"They're talking about Big Brother again."

On the palace road, Princess Lin'an fiddled with her hair confidently, and turned her head to talk to Xu Miaowei and Xu Miaoyun.

Xu Miaowei looked at the palace wall compound, then smiled, picked up her folding fan and said: "What are you talking about Your Highness?"

"Brother gets up and runs along the palace road every morning, and even punches." Lin'an said casually, holding the two of them on his arm.

"It's good for the body, too, and he probably likes that."

Xu Miaoyun answered, "Second Sister, don't you also like boxing in the bamboo forest in the backyard?"

Xu Miaoyun's arm that Xu Miaowei held was tighter.

Princess Lin'an asked: "Sister Miaoyun wants to go back? Can Miaowei stay here?"

Xu Miaoyun looked at the two live treasures, nodded and said: "I have to go back, Miaowei and you don't want to be playful, you will be back in a few days."

When Princess Lin'an heard that someone was playing with her, her eyes were full of joy. It was thanks to her begging for her mother that she kept Miaowei and Sister Miaoyun, otherwise she would be bored again.

Last night, they huddled together on the same bed, chatting about everything,
In fact, for Lin'an, she likes Miaowei's character, unpretentious, unrestrained, brave and rebellious, which she doesn't possess.

In the distance, Hu Weiyong was rushing towards the East Palace, and when he saw Xu Miaoyun, Xu Miaowei and Princess Lin'an, he nodded.

"I met Mr. Hu."

Hu Weiyong smiled and walked towards the East Palace.

……

……

"Your Highness is having breakfast, I will report to His Highness right away." Mu Ying nodded to Hu Weiyong and left.

Zhu Biao then came out, saw Hu Weiyong smiled and said, "Hu Shaoqing is here, why don't you have breakfast with Gu?"

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness, I dare not, my unfilial son made a mistake and talked nonsense yesterday, today I am here to apologize."

Zhu Biao nodded: "How is Hu Peng's injury?"

"Thank you for your highness, that unfilial son of yours is much better." Hu Weiyong was relieved to see that Zhu Biao was in a good mood today, and then said: "Your Highness, I want to do my best for the people in the north, and I will send a thousand shi of grain , although I can't solve the problem, I want to do my best."

Zhu Biao nodded, and said: "It's rare that Hu Shaoqing has such a heart. I thank Hu Shaoqing for his kindness on behalf of the people in the north."

"Hehe, it should be, Your Highness, this is what I should do."

Hu Weiyong saw that Zhu Biao was not angry and pursued the matter, and the big stone in his heart fell to the ground, so he left the palace in peace.

At noon, Zhu Biao called Liu Bowen and several officials from the Academy of Science and Technology who studied Wang Zhennong's books to discuss matters in the north.

Mu Ying said: "Your Highness, the North was affected by Bei Yuan before, and besides the recovery, there are also some military threats."

Zhu Biao nodded, turned to Liu Bowen and said, "Mr. Liu, how is Wang Zhen's research on agricultural books going?"

"It's done. Song Lao left two volumes of notes before returning to his hometown. Wang Zhen is a northerner who has lived in the south for many years, but in the book he always takes into account the problems of the north and the south, and comprehensively practiced dry field farming and paddy field farming."

According to the original history, I am afraid that Wang Zhen's original notes will be lost, so he has to keep them.

Zhu Biao said: "Keep Wang Zhen's agricultural notes well. When Mr. Song comes, you will compile the farming manuals from the north and the south, and distribute them to the common people in an easy-to-understand way. Have you written them down?"

"It's Your Highness, I understand." Liu Bowen replied.

"In the book on farming, irrigation, sowing, and hoeing, a few chapters will be given to the common people first, and livestock will be added in the north, and sericulture in the south. Regarding the making of agricultural equipment, it will be combined with the local area."

The most important thing for Zhu Biao now is to develop farming. Food must be available first. Without the guard system, food cultivation is very important.

After more than 20 years of war, the fields in the north and south were barren. At the beginning of the founding of the country, the most important thing was to restore farming and formulate policies to encourage the reclamation of wasteland.

"Mr. Liu, it's useful to immediately single out those science and technology officials who are good at farming in the Academy of Science and Technology."

"I obey the order." Liu Bowen thought for a while and then said: "Your Highness, Your Majesty will wait for the minister to go over to discuss, and then go there first."

"I know."

At this moment in the imperial study room, Lao Zhu summoned his famous generals to discuss a perfect plan to fight Bei Yuan again.
