My Daming New Empire

Finally, Zhu Di said: "I know that you are dedicated to governing the country and reforming the government. But before I come back, or before I die, don't act rashly. Take two or three years to take a good look at the situation. Sharpen your knife and chop wood."

Zhu Zhanji bowed down: "The grandson will remember it in his heart."

When it comes to reform, his patience is good enough so that he will not change course hastily.

(I recommend "The Great Uncle in the Late Ming Dynasty", which is also a historical article, a good friend of the old demon, and he won two bowls of hot dry noodles from me yesterday.)

Chapter 47 A warning

"Zifeng, why did Xiumu go out again today?"

"The imperial court escorted the criminal officials to Beijing today. They want us to go and observe them, and we will write articles and hand them in later!"

"Zifeng is amazing. The soldiers learned by Habayashi Wei are at least a thousand soldiers. Your parents will enjoy your blessings in the future."

Li Zifeng was wearing the military uniform of Habayashi Weixue. At the age of 15, he was a little proud, walking in front with his head held high.But he was young after all, he felt a little embarrassed when he heard such a compliment, and hung his hands behind his back on his sides.

Behind him are the happy Sanwa and Niuniu.Especially Niuniu, only when her brother comes back, can she go out with her to see the excitement. On weekdays, she doesn't even have the chance to go out.

Sanwa couldn't help but said: "Second brother, why don't you spend two eldest sons, let's take a carriage to Qingliangmen."

Niuniu said coquettishly: "No, you are wandering outside every day, but I can't go out. Walking with the second brother, you can see more scenery."

A skinny man of seventeen or eighteen came up to him. Seeing Li Zifeng and his siblings traveling together, he smiled and said, "Er Gouzi, you're running around again. Niuniu is getting older, you have to understand the differences between men and women." , running like this every day, it will be difficult for my in-laws in the future."

Niu Niu felt a little uncomfortable when she saw this big brother's face, he was the one who was always talking and restricting herself.I have a small family, so there is no need to hide at home like a lady.

Li Zifeng clasped his fists at him and said, "Brother, Niu Niu is young, let alone our family, can we raise a rich lady? I don't know the customs of the world, how can I manage a family well in the future?"

The eldest brother of this uncle's family looked like an older brother when he was a child, and when he grew up, he studied, and the more he read, the more he looked like an old pedant.

Seeing that Er Gouzi didn't listen, Li Shan was not annoyed, and said with a smile: "Then you go and return early, don't let grandma miss you."

When the person walked away, Sanwa snorted and said, "I'll talk about others all day long. I'm eighteen this year, and I still need my uncle and the others to take care of me. Last time I saw him go to drink flower wine with a group of classmates."

Er Gouzi knocked him on the head and said, "What do kids know, it's justified for elder brother to associate with his classmates."

Walking slowly along the street with my younger siblings, the originally wide street, because of the influx of a large number of retired military horses, Ying Tianfu has many more carriages, and now there are often traffic jams.

Er Gouzi loves his sister, pities her not to go out on weekdays, and accommodates her, walking and stopping all the way, and after a while, Niu Niu has many gadgets in her hands, including food and use.

These are of course worthless. Er Gouzi can't make any money yet, so he can earn some extra money by running errands for Xungui's children at school, and he doesn't have a lot of money.

Almost at the foot of Qingliang Mountain, this place has been surrounded by a circle of brick walls, only facing Qingliangmen Inner Street, a three-dimensional three-dimensional map was drawn on the wall with paint.

This three-dimensional map was drawn by a barbarian with deep eyes and sunken eyes. On the day it was finished, it attracted countless people from Yingtian Prefecture to watch it.

Many Confucian scholars said that such a painter is too full of spirit and has no charm.But ordinary people don't know this, they just feel that the painting is too realistic, as if there is really a house there.

Sanwa stared at the picture for a while, then turned around and said, "Second Brother, when the arena is built, can you take me to watch the Royal Ball Game?"

Er Gouzi nodded and said, "I'm a fan of the Navy, and Duan Renzhi is my favorite."

Sanwa didn't know who Duan Renzhi was, so she said disdainfully: "The navy belongs to the sea. How can the team in the British government be so powerful? Wang Dahammer in their team has defeated ten people by himself, even the referee." Ruthless."

Er Gouzi smiled, disdain to argue with him about the gap between a regular army and an amateur army. "Then wait two months and compare to see who is better."

Today's army also has the task of building roads and bridges, and farming, so there are no competitions on weekdays.

The two months before the summer harvest every year is the preliminary stage of each team. During the two-month competition, only those who advance can participate in the final stage in winter.

When it came to the final stage, not only was it listed as a royal match, but the internal supervisor also organized a large number of people to place bets.

The year before last, there was an idler who won more than [-] silver coins because he bet on the British government's team and made huge profits.

This made many people crazy. In last year's finals, the betting amount exceeded 30 silver coins.

But it is said that the internal supervisor is the biggest winner. Last year, their income was not less than [-] silver coins.

But that was last year. The navy did not participate in the competition because it followed Taisun to the sea. This year will definitely surprise everyone.

He watched the two navy games and felt that their skills and tactics, including the cooperation of the players, were far superior to those of Ying Tianfu's current teams.

Passing by the gate, Er Gouzi looked inside. He was wearing Habayashi Weixue's military uniform, and the guards didn't chase him away, but he didn't see anything, only a big hole had been dug inside.

Er Gouzi has long been curious about an arena that can seat 10 people. One house can hold half a city of people!

Go out of the city along Qingliangmen, the street here is the widest road in Yingtian Mansion because it leads to the Jiajiang Industrial Zone, with a full [-] meters.

But because the wooden bridge over the Qinhuai River was too narrow, a blockage area was formed at the city gate.

And the two sides of the road here have become the busiest areas in Yingtian Mansion, and most of the people who see them off and pick them up are here.

Er Gouzi quickly found a classmate who was wearing military uniform like him here, and a group of people quickly gathered together, talking, laughing, and playing around.

On the other side, in an open space, a gray-haired woman stood in front of a carriage, looking at the surface of the Qinhuai River, with her head down, wondering what she was thinking.

Behind her, followed a weeping young woman. On the carriage, there were two children less than five years old playing with a little maid.

Seeing such a scene, Er Gouzi bumped into Niu Jin beside him, and said in a low voice, "Is that the criminal official's family?"

Niu Jin spat and said, "You deserve it, being an official is not for the sake of the people, and now you deserve to be in prison."

"You can't say that, the family is innocent!" This is Yu Mao, the youngest son of Yu Chengguang, the director of the Ministry of Industry, and he sighed when he saw the miserable appearance of the two women.

A classmate Liu Chunyang who was born as an orphan said: "They still have a carriage. When my father died in battle, my mother and I were kicked out. Except for our underwear, we didn't even have a bedding."

Er Gouzi knew that he was a bit extreme, put his arms around his shoulders and said: "It can't be compared like this. You are now studying in Habayashi, and you have a great future. Your mother will enjoy the blessings in the future! But if the crimes of their family are light, they will be exiled thousands of miles. The crime is serious, and I am afraid that I will directly sacrifice to the sky."

"That's what they deserve!" Although he couldn't bear it, Liu Chunyang said stubbornly.

The imperial court never allowed family members to visit prisoners under escort, but in recent years it has gradually relaxed.As long as the secrets are not leaked, family members will be allowed to meet.

Especially in recent years, the emperor likes to show off to the public. He always likes to parade criminals through the streets in large numbers, as a warning to others. At this time, letting his family members appear will cause more people to sigh.

It would be even more difficult to meet the prisoner after he entered the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

Er Gouzi saw that their clothes were not luxurious and their carriages were ordinary, so he knew that the relatives of the couple might not be high officials.

"People are here..."

With a loud shout, not only did a group of students and soldiers of Habayashi Wei School not panic, they became serious one by one, stood in line, and stopped chatting.

Sanwa and Niuniu saw their elder brother and the others standing still imposingly, and followed their example, standing up straight and looking into the distance.

At this moment, they were standing in the team of Habayashi Wei Xue, and they also had a kind of honor.

Uncle Yan has been in a daze these days. Ever since he was arrested, he knew that he would not be able to survive this time.
