My Daming New Empire

Zhu Di asked again: "I asked Liu Chang today, and he said that this new machine was built after listening to your prompts?"

Zhu Zhanji said with a smile: "My grandson has always had some whimsical ideas in his mind. He has been smarter than others since he was a child. If it weren't for his delicate body and expensive body, he might have created a car that can carry people in the sky by now." hang glider."

Zhu Di glanced at him sideways, and scolded with a smile: "Don't even think about it, and you are not allowed to think about it in the future. Before you go to heaven, think about the consequences."

After showing off in front of Zhu Zhanji, Zhu Di was also satisfied.Said: "Let the train of Ying Tianfu stop tomorrow, and I will take the train to look around."

On the day of Zhu Di's return and the day of the fleet's return, the trains were suspended, and a special arrangement was made to pick them up.

When there was no train before, the people in Yingtianfu did not feel any inconvenience.But now there are trains, and when the trains stop, they complain all over the place.

Zhu Zhanji shook his head and said with a smile: "Grandpa Huang has a good mood to go out and have a look, and there is no need to stop other trains, I will arrange it."

Zhu Di's purpose was to take the train to play, and it wasn't to prevent other people from going out. He listened to Zhu Zhanji's arrangement, nodded, and left the Xingqing Palace with his hands behind his back.

Now there are only twelve trains running on the three lines of Yingtianfu, and I don't dare to have more, it is really difficult to schedule.

Because these lines have many intersections, and then there are trains running in the opposite direction. When there is no electronic equipment to monitor, all rely on manpower to monitor the time and switch the track.

As long as there is a slight mistake, there will be a car accident.

The train has been in operation for two years, not counting the accidents of the civilians who were killed, there have been three large-scale accidents where they collided with each other.

Fortunately, the horsepower of the current steam engine is not too large. Even if there is a car accident, they will only collide and only damage the railway. There has been no derailment, and the damage caused is not too great.

As soon as Zhu Di left, Hou Chenghui appeared at the door leading his sixteenth son Zhu Qifeng.

Zhu Qifeng was born in July 19. He is one year old now, and he can't walk very well, but he doesn't like being hugged and likes to crawl on the ground.

It was his birthday today, so the mother and son also received preferential treatment and showed up at the door without notification.

"Your Highness, the concubine just asked Liu Shaojian, and there is no arrangement for today."

Zhu Zhanji nodded and said, "Bring my son here..."

Seeing Zhu Zhanji's smiling face, Hou Chenghui happily picked up Zhu Qifeng who was lying on the threshold, and walked to Zhu Zhanji's side with small steps.

Zhu Zhanji picked up his son and put his beard together.When the little guy saw the beard pricking over, he quickly pushed Zhu Zhanji's face, giggled and called mother.

This is also the only title he can call, but he has a good personality and likes to laugh, so he is quite likable.

Hou Chenghui was very happy to see the father and son amused. Just about to talk, he saw Tao Kan coming to the door. "Your Highness, information has arrived at Huang Shangshu's residence."

"Bring it here." Zhu Zhanji handed the child to Hou Chenghui and said, "Wait outside, I'll be out in a moment."

Seeing that Zhu Zhanji had something to do, Hou Chenghui didn't dare to disturb him, and hurried out of the palace with the child in his arms.

The Jin Yiwei spy in charge of monitoring did not hear the conversation between Huang's father and son, but many people knew about the father and son's discussion at the gate of Huang Yuan.

Afterwards, Huang Fu directly ordered his two sons to be beaten [-] times each, and they were imprisoned in the mansion to recover from their injuries. He also declared that when the immigration from Nanzhou started, they would be sent to Nanzhou as the first group.

There is no news worth paying attention to. Zhu Zhanji waits to see Huang Yuan's attitude before he can determine whether he should backfire and put him in the position of governor of the navy now.

(Add a [-]-word chapter, and the leader will also add two more chapters. I still owe you a few chapters. I will try to pay it off this month)

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Money and military power, these are resources that an emperor must control in his own hands.

Anyone can only get involved in one aspect of management at most, and cannot intervene in both aspects.

Chen Xuan wants to be a lonely minister because he was a lonely minister from the beginning.It was too late to take refuge in Zhu Di, and only one Fengcheng Marquis, Li Bin, had a good relationship with him, and other generals looked down on him.

No matter how strong his ability is, but his qualifications are too low, those nobles who have followed Zhu Di from the beginning will look down on him.

Huang Fu's side is different, he is a civil servant.The civil servants in the court basically followed Zhu Di after Jianwen's downfall.

The main reason is that he became the minister of the Ministry of Industry in the first year of Yongle, and he has outstanding abilities, so he is a little arrogant.

He offended Chen Ying in the early years. Chen Ying was a more ruthless character than Ji Gang at the beginning, but Zhu Di cherished his talents and refused to kill Huang Fu. Chen Ying could only drive him to Beiping first, and then to Jiaozhi to join the army.

But he never thought that Huang Fu couldn't hide in the army. As a civil servant, he gradually became the logistics officer of the entire Southern Expedition Army, and in the end he relied on prestige and hand in hand.

Chen Ying fell, he should have returned to Beijing.It's just that Jiaozhi couldn't do without him, so he stayed there all the time.

At this time, he offended the extortionate Ma Qi because of justice, and offended the internal surveillance system again.

If it weren't for Zhu Zhanji, it would be impossible for him to return to Beijing to be the print officer of the Ministry of War.

It is a taboo for these two families to get married.

Although their loyalty is trustworthy, whether it is Chen Xuan, Huang Fu, or Huang Yuan, they are all outstanding abilities, and Zhu Zhanji admires and trusts them very much.

But as a superior, absolutely cannot give anyone such an opportunity.

Power must be balanced, which is the basis for stability.

Huang Yuan is only 33 years old this year, even if he is loyal, fair and honest all his life, he will become a powerful minister in the future.

Zhu Zhanji didn't know how long he could live. It's okay to live to be seventy or eighty, and he can hold back anyone.

If he died young like in the original history, who would be able to check and balance Huang Yuan at that time?

If he was a little bit crooked, Jiangshan would be in danger at that time.

Therefore, no matter when, you can't give him such a condition, and put an end to such a thing from the beginning.

Now that Zhu Di wants to take the Zen seat, he hardly cares about state affairs these days, and wanders around every day.

After he succeeds to the throne, the imperial reform, which has been prepared for several years, will be gradually implemented.

The first thing Zhu Zhanji wants to change is diplomacy. Today's Honglu Temple is far from meeting the needs of diplomacy.The Ministry of Rites and the Department of General Administration also have departments related to diplomacy. These aspects must be sorted out.

Zheng He's management of the navy is just an expedient measure. In Zhu Zhanji's view, he is a very suitable candidate for the Minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Although Chen Cheng believed that he and Hou Xian had stronger diplomatic skills, they only had better communication skills and better eloquence.

But it lacks the noble spirit of Zheng He, and the overall outlook and calmness that a leader of a great country should have.

Chen Cheng is very powerful, but it is not good for others to be afraid and fearful when they see him.

Therefore, Chen Cheng is a qualified candidate for an envoy, not a qualified candidate for a minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

People like him are suitable for intelligence.

Zheng He was transferred to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The navy is Zhu Zhanji's most important power department. He is in charge and needs a competent person to help him with official affairs. He has taken a look at Huang Yuan.

Huang Yuan's overall planning and management ability has been verified. The daily affairs of the navy are nothing in front of him.
