Empress Dowager Zhang looked pale and kept coughing. She was busy calling the palace maids to serve the dishes. It took a while before she sat down opposite Zhu Xu.

She wiped her mouth gently, looked at Zhu Xu and shook her head helplessly, and said, "You, you don't save me any worries."

Zhu Xu thought Empress Dowager Zhang said again that he did not have the emperor's appearance, so he coughed lightly, put down Xiao Yongning, and said pretentiously: "Yongning, your mother has taught the emperor's uncle a lesson again, go and vent her anger..."

The little guy was on the ground, with his eyes wide open, stretched out his small hands, and ran towards Empress Dowager Zhang crookedly.

Empress Dowager Zhang listened to Zhu Xu's unconventional words, glared at him, hugged the little guy in his arms, and said, "You didn't let me worry before, the bigger you were, the less worried you were..."

She coughed several times as soon as she said something, and covered her mouth with a handkerchief.

Zhu Xu had no choice but to smile, picked up the chopsticks, knocked them and ate them on the table.

Empress Dowager Zhang looked at Zhu Xu and was very troubled by his demeanor. Before Zhu Xu ascended the throne, she had no choice but to deal with Zhu Xu. Zhu Xu always had a hundred ideas in her mind to deal with her. After ascending the throne, she became more and more out of control, making her unable to do anything.

“吃吃……”小永宁在张太后怀里挣扎着,小手要抓向桌子.

Empress Dowager Zhang took a piece of pastry and handed it to her, then looked at Zhu Xu who was eating voraciously and said, "Mr. Bi is well-educated, and is naturally knowledgeable. I will summon him tomorrow. In addition to reading and writing, you should also learn the emperor's demeanor. Every move must be like an emperor..."

This is a cliché, but Zhu Xu hated those rules deeply, so he could only agree with it with a tough bullet.

When Empress Dowager Zhang saw Zhu Xu nodding, she was relieved. While feeding Xiao Yongning, she said, "I have recently written to the princess, Princess Ping entered the palace, but she said a lot of good things. Many Qingliu adults also praised her. At this time, you have to calm down and don't do anything concise."

Zhu Xu bit the fat meat in his mouth, nodded um, but shook his head in his heart. The reason why Qingliu turned was because of the increase in taxes and grain this year. Some people saw that the big head of the royal family was saved, and the court had an unprecedented surplus. In addition, the war in Liaodong stopped, and the Ming Dynasty had a rare peaceful environment.

This made many people think about it. Qingliu Donglin people, who were originally disappointed to leave, were thinking about returning to the temple and showing their ambitions.

'You guys are going to hold on.' Zhu Xu couldn't help but tilt the corners of his mouth, and he said in his heart.

Empress Dowager Zhang knew Zhu Xu so well. When she saw his expression, she frowned and said, "What are you thinking about?"

Zhu Xu's mouth was delicious, as if he hadn't heard Empress Dowager Zhang's words, so he picked up a piece of tofu and handed it to Xiao Yongning.

The little guy took it with both hands and put it in his mouth. Not long after, his mouth was covered in oil and his little face was dirty.

Empress Dowager Zhang frowned and frowned. In the end, she didn't ask, wiped Xiao Yongning's face and said, "I don't care what you are going to do next. In short, let me and the concubine have a good New Year. I don't care if you make a lot of flowers next year."

"Why!"

Zhu Xu started to make her body and sighed.

He can't guarantee this.

Empress Dowager Zhang knew Zhu Xu, so before the meal was finished, Empress Dowager Zhang could not help but drive Zhu Xu out of Cining Palace.

Fortunately, Zhu Xu had eaten most of the time and returned to Jingyang Palace, he lay comfortably on the bed.

Only in Cining Palace can he feel the word "home" and feel comfortable and willful.

Early the next morning, Sun Chuanting hurried to the imperial study room and woke the internal supervisor up to wake Zhu Xu who was still sleeping.

Zhu Xu washed his face and came out, looking at him and said, "What happened?"

Sun Chuanting was obviously awakened, with an anxious expression and frowned: "Emperor, in Shaanxi, Baishui and Anzhai counties, the people siege the city. They have been suppressed before. Yesterday, the people occupied the county town and killed the magistrate. Only then did the local people realize that they could not suppress it and reported it."

Zhu Xu frowned and looked calm.

What I have always been worried about still happened. Shaanxi/Xi has always been the most severe place for severe droughts, and chaos was expected. It was only when several counties occurred at the same time, which shows that the drought in Shaanxi/Xi is already serious and needs to be started to provide disaster relief.

From the beginning of this disaster relief, it will not stop in Shaanxi/Xiangxi. He may not be able to hold on to the surplus this year for half a year.

When Sun Chuanting saw that Zhu Xu did not speak, he did not continue to speak. As the Minister of War, he was considering how to suppress the rebellion, while the emperor was considering long-term stability.

Zhu Xu looked at Sun Chuanting and still thought in his heart.

To govern the country, govern officials first. If you want to provide disaster relief, you must first ensure that the governments in various places are honest and honest, and do your best to appease the victims. You cannot let the victims feel the gap between the rich and the poor and feel resentful. On the other side of the river/nan, Zhao Han has been there for more than a month, but he still encountered strong resistance and encountered too many troubles in various promotions. Zhu Xu still couldn't make any moves to restructure Shaanxi/Xi in a short period of time, or it was too late.

However, this matter could not be delayed. Zhu Xu thought for a long time and said, "I immediately asked the Ministry of Revenue to transfer grain, each of the sweet potatoes, and quickly sent it to Shaanxi/Xi, and allocated another 500,000 taels of silver. The decree of Shaanxi/Xi Provincial Administration, the Governor, and the prefectures and counties at all levels must be on guard, and no civil chaos should be despised. At the same time, the Governor, the Censorate, the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Personnel, and three departments inspected Shaanxi/Xi in batches. Any corruption, favoritism, or dereliction of duty will be severely punished. If there is still any problem, the Dongchang will also intervene at any time!"

Sun Chuanting knew that this was the emperor's statement and raised his hand and said, "I understand that after I go back, I will discuss with Mr. Shen with colleagues, mobilize the troops of Shaanxi and Xi, and the county army will severely suppress the civil unrest."

Zhu Xu just mentioned Fu, and Sun Chuanting talked about Zhen.

Zhu Xu listened to his words and looked motionless.

He knew very well the consistent thoughts of the Ming official group. He had always been a ruling war for Jiannu, and demanded suppression and pacification for civil unrest. In the end, all of them were severely punished by the court and ended up being bleak.

After thinking for a while, Zhu Xu said to Cao Huachun: "King Xin, Minister of Revenue, Minister of Personnel, Minister of War, King Ping, and Yang Lian come to see me."

Since the disaster has begun, we need to deal with it seriously.

"Yes." Cao Huachun responded.

Not long after, Zhu Youjian, Fu Changzong, Sun Chengzong, Shen Yongmao, Zhou Yingqiu, Ping Wang Zhu Changrun, Yang Lian and others appeared in the imperial study room.

After Sun Chuanting said that Zhu Youjian, Ping Wang, Yang Lian and others looked at each other, a little confused.

However, Fu Changzong, Sun Chengzong, Shen Yongmao and others showed a serious expression. From the previous Sichuan civil chaos spread across several prefectures and counties, almost capturing the Taiyuan area of ​​Chengdu, Shanxi, to the current Shaanxi and Xi, the civil chaos has become increasingly fierce and has a prairie fire.

Zhu Xu didn't speak, and looked at Fu Changzong.

Fu Changzong raised his hand and looked at the others and said: "Since the previous year, the severe drought in Shaanxi and Xi have increased. This year's summer grain has decreased by 20% compared with last year. Everyone knows the drought this year. I am afraid that it will decrease by 30% next year. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a thousand miles away. This is just Shaanxi and Xi, Sichuan will reduce production by 20%, Lake/Guang 10%, River/South, Mountain/Xiang, Shandong/East, and more are expected to be reduced next year..."

The so-called "food is the sky" is now decreasing, indicating that there will be more and more chaos among the people.

Zhu Youjian's expression changed slightly. He originally knew about these things, but he didn't look at them comprehensively. Now, listening to Fu Changzong's words, he was secretly shocked.

Yang Lian also looked moved, but he didn't speak.

King Ping frowned when he heard this, and saw that no one was talking, he had to look at Zhu Xu and raised his hand and said, "Your Majesty, what can we do when we call us?"

Zhu Xu did not beat around the bush and looked directly at Zhu Youjian and said, "Brother, I plan to let your Wen Zhao Pavilion take the lead and form a temporary disaster response yamen in conjunction with the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Personnel, the Censorate, and the Governor General. They are responsible for the early warning of disaster situations across the country, disaster relief, follow-up treatment, etc., which involves corruption, disaster relief, dereliction of duty, unfavorable disaster relief, etc., and will be severely punished!"

Zhu Youjian opened his eyes and said that this power was extraordinary!

He looked dazed and said quickly: "Abide by the order!"

Zhu Xu looked at Sun Chengzong again and said, "The Ministry of War must be prepared. The troops stationed in various places and the standing troops must be trained more severely. It involves empty salary, corruption, thorns, etc. It must be punished strictly. It is necessary to ensure the combat effectiveness of the absolute army and be completely controlled. They must never be allowed to become a 'feudal town'!"

Sun Chengzong, Shen Yongmao and others were shocked and raised their hands together and said, "Abide by the order!"

Zhu Xu nodded and looked at Zhu Youjian and said, "Brother, I have given you full authority to this matter. Be sure to deal with it properly. The disaster is like fire, so it is better not to be too late. After you go back, you summon officials from various departments to discuss and come up with a complete solution, and then write a note to show me."

Seeing that Zhu Xu really gave him power, Zhu Youjian raised his hand and said in a deep voice: "Abide by the order!"

Zhu Xu was relieved about Zhu Youjian in this regard. He gave a few words and let the group leave. He sat there, looked outside, and breathed lightly. The cruelest moment finally came.

Fortunately, it's just the beginning, and everything is in time.

Zhu Xu's daily routine gradually became regular, with classes every six days, and he had to review, memorize and practice calligraphy at other times. Bi Ziyan and Sun Chengzong were both strict scholars, although Zhu Xu was the emperor, his requirements were even stricter.

Zhu Xu was self-disciplined and prepared a detailed schedule for himself, so that Cao Huachun and others could supervise it.

Zhu Youjian was still very fast. The temporary disaster relief yamen he was in charge was established in Wenhua Hall. Six ministries, the Censorate, Dali Temple, the Governor's Court and others all sent personnel to participate. This temporary yamen is even more powerful than Wenzhao Pavilion!

After Zhu Xu's imperial approval, the appointment and removal of officials from Shaanxi/Xizhou, the distribution of disaster relief food and salary, and even the transfer of military troops will require the consent or knowledge of Wenhua Palace.

The disaster in Shaanxi/Xi is not serious, and it is more due to the excessive recovery of tax grain in the local county government. Zhu Xu did not put too much effort into it. However, there was no news about the rectification of He/Nan, which aroused his dissatisfaction.

platform.

In front of Zhu Xu stood King of Jin Zhu Qiugui and King of Jing Zhu Luhu.

Zhu Xu looked at the two of them and said, "Do you all know about He/Nan?"

Zhu Qiugui and Zhu Luhu looked at each other. Zhu Qiugui knew that this time he was afraid that he would send him to Kai/Feng. He pondered: "Emperor, Kai/Feng is a thousand-year-old city with a profound foundation and complex relationships. The three-character system has existed for nearly two hundred years. It is not easy to change courses in a short time."

Zhu Luhu stood there without responding. He knew very well what was going on. He/Nan was not as intense as Jiang/Su, which made the whole province slaughter and angered the emperor. It was not like the confrontation between Shan/Neonsoft, and it was easy to deal with it. He/Nan was like a quagmire. When Zhao Han arrived at Kai/Feng, he slowly fell like a swamp, and could not get out of it.

But I couldn't see anyone's open or obscure resistance. As the singing and dancing reached peace, his reform process silently stagnated and made no progress for more than a month!

This can be solved by killing people, arresting people, or winning over them. It is an inertia, and it belongs to the entire He/Nan people and cannot be reversed.

Zhu Xu listened to Zhu Qiugui's words and looked dull. He did begin to lose patience for He/Nan, especially the excitement of Shaanxi/Xi, and he had to speed up.

He/Nan is the third one. Zhu Xu has been restraining himself, worried that the action would be too big and it would cause the vigilance of other provinces, and it would be even more difficult to do it below. But He/Nan is too complicated, just like boiling a frog in warm water, and conventional methods are difficult to work.

Zhu Xu looked up at King Jing Zhu Luhu and said, "King Jing, what do you think?"

Zhu Luhu knew that he was called today and was about to leave and was opened and sealed. He thought, "I will go back to the emperor and want to solve the matter in He/Nan as soon as possible, so I can only start a new job."

Zhu Xu was stunned and said, "Start up again? Keep talking."

Zhu Luhu looked up at Zhu Xu and said, "You can move the He/Nanbu Government Office to Luo/Yang."

Zhu Xu's eyes lit up suddenly. He really didn't expect this idea.

This is a good idea to start a new stove. In this way, no matter whether the river/south is warm or mud, you can jump out and stir up the stagnant river/south. As long as it moves, you won’t be afraid of not being able to clean up!

Zhu Xu stood up and looked at Zhu Luhu with admiration and said, "Well, King Jing is loyal to the country, Sida is keen, this method is very good! Then, go to Shan/Western for me, hold Shangfang Sword, Shan/Western Governor Zhang Ruitu, and Governor Ma Shilong will listen to your orders. When necessary, I will let Lao Cao listen to your arrangements."

Zhang Ruitu, a hard-core eunuch party, has written a lot of "good" articles for Wei Zhongxian, especially the ancestral temple. Ma Shilong was recommended by Sun Chengzong. He was once the general of Shanhaiguan and was a general. As for Lao Cao, it was Cao Wenzhao, and his Tiger Army was stationed in Taiyuan Mansion.

Prince Jing Zhu Luhu is a very sensible person and will not be stupid enough to dispatch troops. It is Cao Wenzhao, who is the emperor's confidant. Even if he is the governor, the governor must discuss it. If someone accidentally reports to the emperor and only says "out of the rules", it will be a disaster!

Fortunately, Jiang/Su and his party knew the most about the measure and bowed, "I will receive the order."

Zhu Xu nodded with a smile, feeling relieved about King Jing, and looked at King Jin Zhu Qiugui, and said, "The migration of a governor's office is not a minor matter, it is very involved. I will order Wen Zhaoge to discuss with you later. After discussing, I will report it again. At that time, I will also hold the Sword of Shangfang and go to open/seal."

When the capital of a province is moved, the space that can operate is extremely large, and it is definitely no worse than that of Jiang/Su. Zhu Qiugui hurriedly bowed and said, "I will definitely not let down the emperor's entrusted!"

Zhu Xu nodded with a smile, his eyes moved slightly. It was time for the Royal Court to start classes for the officials of Jiang/Su. Those who did not suit his wishes were sent to He/South, Shan/Xi. Not only could they break their interests, but they could also use this group of "skilled workers" for a second time.

Zhu Youjian was very troubled by Zhu Xu's "not doing his job properly", was uneasy to study, and he was relocated to the capital of He/Nan Province, but he was happy. At least, he could also participate and control it, so as not to let the development of the situation get out of control.

He controlled the disaster response yamen in Wenhua Hall, and could also pay attention to He/Nan. His power was expanding rapidly, and the reputation and status of Wenzhao Pavilion were also increasing. A large number of people gathered around him.

Zhu Xu didn't care much about these things. In addition to local reform and disaster situations, he was also watching the rectification of the four northern towns.

Qin Liangyu's methods were fierce. Nearly 300,000 soldiers in the four towns, and only less than 100,000 were left. They were led by Liu Hua, Zhao Shujiao and others. While training was carried out, a huge pocket slowly formed around Xi/fengkou under the coordination of the General Staff and the Ministry of War.

The four towns including Da/Tong, Xuan/Fu have been reorganized, and the Ning/Xia towns that Sun Chengzong had purged before were the only soldiers in Liaodong did not move lightly and remained the same.

As the end of the year approaches, it seems that all parts of the Ming Dynasty are over, and nothing has happened, but there is a few good news.

One is Xiong Wencan's southern navy encountered a group of pirates with more than 60 boats near Liuqiu and Taiwan. More than 20 ships were sunk and hundreds of people were captured, including Zheng Zhilong, who Zhu Xu had been thinking about!

Another good news is that the princess is almost eight months pregnant and is about to give birth.
