Zhu Xu sat there, smiled and waved his hand, and said, "Get up, I just saw the concubine coming back, come and bring a chair for Lord Liu."

Liu Hua stood up to thank him, clasped his fists and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I have heard that the new thief chief is ambitious recently and is raising troops to go south again. I am worried..."

Zhu Xu laughed secretly. Liu Hua was straight to the point, took a sip of tea and said, "This is not urgent. If you really want to go, I can't stop it. However, you have heard of the things outside the palace, right?"

Liu Hua looked slightly stunned and said, "I know."

Zhu Xu nodded and said, "Cao Wenzhao is not a successor of merit after all, and there are many reasons for rectifying the patrol battalion. I plan to hand over the patrol battalion to you. You come to rectify me for half a year. In half a year, I will allow you wherever you want to go."

Liu Hua frowned as soon as he heard this. The patrol battalion came from the previous central army, and there were many of the hereditary nobles in Wang Xun. It was obvious that it was an extremely offensive and thankless job!

Zhu Xu's expression remained unchanged, and he looked at Liu Hua quietly.

Liu Hua frowned and struggled in his heart.

Although they were related to Concubine Liu and their Liu family was also prominent, he was not a legitimate son, had no title, and had no effort to make a successor in his entire life.

Concubine Liu was eighty years old, and no one knew how long he could live. He frowned and gritted his teeth and said, "I obey the order."

Zhu Xu smiled with satisfaction and said, "Well, in three days, I don't want to see the patrol battalion people joining in. Also, there are some people in the imperial guards who can also hand in a memorial and transfer them all out. You know how to place them."

Liu Hua is a soldier. He will not hesitate when he takes the first step. He bowed and said in a deep voice: "I would like to rest assured that the patrol camp will be loyal to the emperor and will never be discreet."

Zhu Xu nodded, the Liu family was loyal and brave, and they would not do anything randomly.

After a few more words, he ordered Cao Huachun to take people to the patrol camp in person. Liu Hua was different from Cao Wenzhao. He was both a military general and a meritorious person. He was of the same class as those hereditary children. He knew better than Cao Wenzhao how to rectify the patrol camp.

After seeing Liu Hua, Zhu Xu turned on the memorial as usual.

More and more memorials in various places have appeared in words such as "disaster relief" and "pension" and so on. Zhu Xu can also roughly guess the actual situation in various places from these words.

"The disaster is getting worse and worse."

Zhu Xu's heart became heavier. At present, the situation is still under control, but with the seriousness of the disaster, everything can be fine if there is money or military. There are too many things to do.

After noon, Liu Shimin turned around and whispered, "Master, it's time to have a meal."

Zhu Xu suddenly raised his head, and his intuition turned dark, and his brain hurt so much.

He quickly closed his eyes, took a few deep breaths before opening his eyes, and looked outside with breath, then he felt hungry, and nodded and said, "Well, prepare to order rice porridge and serve some side dishes."

Zhu Xu is not a luxury person, not Empress Dowager Zhang, not even more so than Concubine Liu. Therefore, the palace seems very frugal in silence.

Liu Shimin turned his head and ordered an eunuch, who turned around and went out through the side door.

Zhu Xu took a breath, stood up, shook his arms, supported his waist and said casually: "Is Xiao Cao back?"

Liu Shimin said, "I have not returned to the emperor yet. He sent someone to send a message back, saying that he had met a fellow villager."

"Members?"

Zhu Xu lowered his waist, smiled, and said, "I'm afraid my fellow countrymen who can stop him are not small. Zhao Nanxing must have promised many benefits to go out."

Liu Shimin bent down and refused to respond. He knew very well that the emperor in front of him was not the emperor he used to be, and his eyes could not rub the sand. Zhao Nanxing and others were so blatantly proclaiming officials and making wishes was a taboo!

Zhu Xu didn't take it seriously, walked around with his hands behind his back, and said, "When will Sun Chuanting arrive in Beijing?"

Liu Shimin said: "It should be in this or two."

Zhu Xu looked outside the door and smiled relievedly. Sun Chuanting, this man was a fierce man, and in Zhu Xu's heart he even surpassed Sun Chengzong.

Sun Chengzong was a handsome man with vision and ability. Zhu Xu had no doubts about him commanding Liaodong and defending Liaodong, but if he wanted to lead the army to fight and pacify the four sides, he might not be as good as Sun Chuanting!

Zhu Xu walked back to the imperial table and sat down, saying, "When he enters Beijing, summon me to see me immediately, no matter when."

"Yes." Liu Shimin bowed and said.

The memorial next to Zhu Xu moved as soon as he glanced at the casual expression.

This is a memorial written by Xiong Wencan. He is now planning to build the Southern Navy. Half a month ago, he encountered a group of sea bandits who were defeated by him. The bandits passed through Taiwan and the Bay Straits and flew towards Annan. He specifically requested to strictly investigate Guang, Xi and other places.

This is a saying on the surface, but in fact, it is a request for merit. No wonder, Yuan Keli's army went south, and some small bandits were not opponents of the red cannon. In addition, there was Sun Chuanting on the land, which was like plowing the burial and sweeping the caves, so they could not stop it.

The Southern Navy has just been established, so it has to make some achievements, otherwise how could it be for the court to ask for money, ships and official positions?

Zhu Xu, who has ambitions and expectations for the navy, was not stingy with money and official positions. After thinking for a while, he said, "Transfer to Xiong Wencan and give him the position of three deputy generals. He asked him to practice the army well, not to engage in defense, and focus on attacking. I want an invincible navy at sea!"

Liu Shimin was stunned for a moment, always feeling something was wrong, so he bowed and said, "Abide by the order."

Soon, the side dishes of Qingpang came on, and they watched while eating.

It was not until evening when the sun sets westward that Cao Huachun returned to the palace and quietly stood on Zhu Xu's left side, opposing Liu Shimin.

Zhu Xu seemed to be unaware of it, and reading the memoir is also a big question. There are often secrets hidden between the lines. Zhu Xu sometimes treats it as a guessing riddle, which is very interesting.

Naturally, after being interesting, it is anger.

The hidden things are often the pre-requisite, and the future happens is an excuse for "not to be prepared".

As he looked at Zhu Xu, he looked up at Liu Shimin and said, "Are these memorials delivered from Wen Zhao Pavilion?"

Liu Shimin turned around and said, "Yes, Lord Ye and others did not enter the palace today, and King Xin... did not."

Zhu Xu narrowed his eyes and tapped the table with his right hand, and the crisp sound of horse hooves rang in the imperial study.

Zhu Xu was silent for a while, and suddenly said with a smile, "You guys say, what is the attitude of King Xin toward the matter that Zhao Nanxing did?"

Neither Cao Huachun nor Liu Shimin bowed his head, and did not say a word.

If this matter was changed to Apocalypse, maybe I would endure it. It would really be as intended by the ministers of the Foreign Court. Although he would be extremely angry, he would not make a big deal, and he would eventually turn big things into small things.

But if it were Zhu Xu, it would be absolutely impossible!

This is no different from plotting against others!

Zhu Xu looked around and said, "Chunting King Xin, no, prepare for casual clothes, let's go to the King Xin Mansion."
