Chapter 139 Greenhouse

Zhu Xu returned to Jinghuan Palace, lay on the chair, and tapped his fingers on the edge of the chair.

It is not easy to send 30,000 people to North Korea. Even if the silver is loud and the food and salary are all borne by North Korea, it is a huge project.

"Your Highness."

Cao Wenzhao walked quietly to Zhu Xu and looked at Zhu Xu with some curiosity.

Zhu Xu looked up and said, "Are things outside the city ready?"

Cao Wenzhao was full of confidence and said, "Everything is ready. All the drills have been carried out several times, and the artillery has also been fired by fake projectiles. It should be able to open the eyes of Lord Jin."

Zhu Xu was not worried about this. North Korea's military strength was weak and could not even achieve basic defense, let alone "advanced" firearms such as artillery and grenade guns.

"Look at me, tell me immediately whenever there is a letter from Liaodong." Zhu Xu said, the most important thing now is Sun Chengzong's attitude. As long as he has his support, Xiong Tingbi will basically make a decision to go to North Korea.

"It's Your Highness." Cao Wenzhao agreed, and then said: "Your Highness, the three masters of the Honglu Temple have all entered the palace, as if they are going to sue your highness."

Zhu Xu waved his hand and said indifferently: "It's okay, I've already said that my brother, don't pay attention to them."

Zhu Xu robbed the power of Honglu Temple so simply and rudely, which naturally made Honglu Temple very dissatisfied, but they had no choice but to protect the face of the Ming Dynasty and the Supreme Kingdom and not offend His Highness Hui too much.

Therefore, the only thing they can do is to complain to the emperor and ask for power.

The matter was as Zhu Xu had expected. The adults of Honglu Temple did not get what they wanted and left in shame.

Zhu Xu took a break for a while, and after dinner, he went to Kunning Palace again. Queen Zhang's due date was right in front of him. He was very worried about Queen Zhang and had to go and take a few glances every day to rest assured.

Empress Zhang naturally knew that he had not received the North Korean mission in accordance with the ritual schedule set by Honglu Temple, and was inevitably blamed.

With Zhu Xu's face in front of Queen Zhang, he naturally agreed to one face and his heart was indifferent.

The weather was getting colder and colder. Zhu Xu came out of Kunning Palace and was wrapped in a thin cloak.

"Your Highness, I've written a letter."

As soon as Zhu Xu left the Kunning Palace Gate, Cao Huachun trotted over and whispered.

Zhu Xu's expression moved and said, "Take it over and show it to me."

Cao Huachun glanced around and handed the letter to Zhu Xu. The lantern in his hand was also lifted to Zhu Xu's side face.

Zhu Xu opened the letter and scanned it quickly. After reading it, he felt relieved. Lord Sun was "trustworthy" and indeed agreed to his request. The letter said that his recommendation letter was sent at the same time as this letter, and the letter should have arrived at the palace before the letter.

"So, the emperor has received his note."

Zhu Xu's eyes flashed. He had already done everything he should do. The rest would have to wait to see the driving force of the foreign ministers and Zhu Youxiao's thoughts.

"Let's go."

Zhu Xu put the letter in a lantern and lit it, saying with his hands behind his back.

Early the next morning, Zhu Xu's carriage appeared in front of the inn.

"Your Highness." Kim Zhongshen saluted respectfully.

Zhu Xu lifted the curtain and smiled and said, "Mr. Jin, let's take you on an outing."

"Out outing?" Jin Zhongshen was stunned. It was almost winter, so why should I go on a green leaf?

However, Zhu Xu did not explain. He put down the curtain and the carriage rolled forward.

Jin Zhongshan's expression calmed down. After a night last night, he had almost inquired about His Highness Hui, so naturally it was all openly news.

He was shocked by His Highness Hui's "boldness" and also understood more clearly how much His Highness Hui was favored by the Emperor and Empress of the Ming Dynasty, so he trusted his promise yesterday.

He called the carriage and said calmly: "Follow His Highness Hui."

Zhu Xu's carriage followed fifty guards, and thirty of Jin Zhongshan's ones, and he left the city in a mighty manner.

The Honglu Temple kept staring at the inn, so naturally I got the news as soon as possible, but there was no other way except to jump and secretly send someone to follow him.

Zhu Xu's carriage was moving forward, and after walking for half an hour, there was still no sign of stopping.

The guard beside Kim Zhongsun's side had his feet sore, and he looked up at the carriage: "Sir, where is His Highness Hui taking us?"

Kim Zhongsun opened the curtain and glanced at it, and said without changing his expression: "Don't worry, your highness has its own arrangements."

Although he said this, he was still resentful of the word "outing". In the winter when all things are withering, what should I step on?

After a long time, Zhu Xu's carriage finally stopped.

Zhu Xu jumped out of the carriage and called Jin Zhongshen over.

"Mr. Jin, look." Zhu Xu said with his hands behind his back, looking not far away, and smiling.

Kim Zhongsun looked up and saw long semicircular strips lying on the ground like big insects, each wrapped in thick cotton cloth. It looked like there were dozens of them.

Jin Zhongshen looked at Zhu Xu with a puzzled look and said, "Your Highness, is this?"

"Let's go, take you to see." Zhu Xu smiled and waved his hand, taking the lead in walking forward.

Cao Wenzhao sat down at the guard behind him, then stretched out his hand and said, "Please, Lord Jin."

Jin Zhongsun was also curious and followed Zhu Xu, the three of them walked towards the semicircular tube not far away.

Soon, a half-year-old man hurriedly ran out of the long tube, with a shrewd look on his face, hurried over, and said, "I'll pay homage to His Highness, Prince Hui."

Zhu Xu nodded and said with a strong aura: "This is Lord Jin from the North Korean mission. I will accompany you to have a look today."

The old man was the chief shopkeeper here. Hearing this, he hurriedly said, "Yes, Your Highness, Lord Jin."

Jin Zhongshen looked at Zhu Xu with a curious look on his face. Zhu Xu smiled and said, "Mr. Jin, you will know after seeing it."

The three of them followed the little old man, and the little old man quickly ran over, lifted the curtain and said, "Your Highness, Lord Jin, Commander Cao, please."

The curtain was opened and there was a warm feeling, and Kim Zhongsun's expression became even more confused.

The three of them walked in, Zhu Xu looked over at him and nodded with satisfaction.

Kim Jong-sun's eyes widened and ran a few steps in a hurry.

I saw that inside this long tube was as warm as spring. Except for a passage between two people, on the ground, there were green plants on both sides, growing very lush and full of vitality.

Jin Zhongsun reached out to grab a leaf, looked in front of him, then turned his head in shock and looked at Zhu Xu and said, "Your Highness, what is this?"

Zhu Xu smiled and said, "This is something that the yamen in our court has just been successfully tested. It is called a warm greenhouse. It can maintain the temperature and allow crops to grow as usual in winter."

The old man quickly brought a plate over and said attentively to Zhu Xu: "Your Highness, try our freshly ripe watermelon, it's sweet and delicious."
