At this point, things are considered to have come to an end. Zhu Houzhao's plan is nearing completion. The remaining things need to be carried out step by step. This will take time and is definitely not a day's work. The Yanzheng side began to spread the news

After being released, the salt dealer access system and the registration date are set for March next year, which is very fast.

It is now the end of October, winter has entered, so traveling is naturally very troublesome, and the news has not spread. This matter cannot be completed this year anyway.

The same goes for the secret music. It is estimated that it will not be completed this year. Zhu Houzhao knows this very well. He also knows that these things cannot be rushed.

However, things have been planned, so we can proceed slowly. So what is Zhu Houzhao doing? First, he continues to train his troops and expands his own bodyguards. Winter operations must also be practiced. In northern Xinjiang operations, in winter

Combat is inevitable, so it goes without saying that the number of people will be expanded. This time Zhu Houzhao expanded the number of the prince's personal guards to 3,000.

In addition to this, Zhu Houzhao also turned his energy back to the Eighth Bureau. The Eighth Bureau has been under Zhu Houzhao's jurisdiction for some time.

Previously, Zhu Houzhao checked the accounts from top to bottom, killed many people, and replaced many people, but no substantive actions were taken.

Of course, the affairs of the Eighth Bureau also have priorities. Among them, the Huanyi Bureau received Zhu Houzhao's attention. Looking at Yang Lian coming in from the outside, Zhu Houzhao smiled slightly and then said: "It's freezing cold, so no courtesy.

!”

Although Zhu Houzhao said this, Yang Lian still saluted Zhu Houzhao and then stood aside respectfully.

Putting down the tea cup in his hand, Zhu Houzhao asked: "Have you been transferred to the Huanyi Bureau?"

"Go back to Your Highness, he has been transferred!" Yang Lian said quickly.

"That's good!" Zhu Houzhao said with satisfaction: "After arriving at the Huanyi Bureau, you have to work hard and don't let me down."

Asking people to go to the Huanyi Bureau to do a good job is really not a good thing. What kind of place is the Huanyi Bureau? Besides, Yang Lian has made meritorious service for Zhu Houzhao. But Yang Lian said with a serious face: "I know this."

, Your Highness, please rest assured that I will do my best to run errands for Your Highness."

Zhu Houzhao nodded and said: "You did a good job in Yangzhou. Although the Huanyi Bureau assigned you to the outside world, you must know that I have high hopes for the Huanyi Bureau. The responsibilities of Dongchang and Jinyiwei are

I won’t say more about it. You must also know that my Huanyi Bureau does not do these things, so the Huanyi Bureau is different from the Dongchang Jinyiwei. You have to understand this! "

Yang Lian quickly said: "I understand, Your Highness, please tell me!"

Zhu Houzhao nodded, and then said: "The Huanyi Bureau mainly investigates wealthy businessmen and gentry in various places. All big families are registered with me. This is the first job of the Huanyi Bureau. You can figure out the manpower yourself.

, I can give the money, but it must be done quietly, and all these people should be registered according to their household registration."

"Where you are, what you do for a living, whether there are officials in your family, whether there are officials among your relatives, you have to find out everything, do you understand?"

This is no small task, but Zhu Houzhao knows that this investigation is very, very necessary, because you have to sort out something, and without this kind of data support, you simply can't do it.

Jinyiwei and Dongchang supervised hundreds of officials and vassal kings from various places, but Zhu Houzhao knew that the problem of the Ming Dynasty was not only with them, but those officials and businessmen who killed the Ming Dynasty. Those wealthy merchants and gentry from all over the country were the biggest cancer of the Ming Dynasty.

These people must be poached. Before poaching them, you must understand them, know yourself and the enemy, and be able to win a hundred battles.

"My slave understands!" Yang Lian nodded, and said with an extremely serious face: "I must get it done as soon as possible."

"Not only do you need to be quick, but you also need to be good. This matter is of great importance and you cannot go on a business trip. Do you understand?" Zhu Houzhao warned with the same serious face.

Yang Lian quickly said: "I understand!"

Zhu Houzhao nodded, and then waved his hand to signal Yang Lian to step back. Yang Lian quickly retreated. Zhu Houzhao picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then turned to look at Liu Jin who was waiting beside him, and asked: "Let you

Go and inquire about Zheng He’s documents on his voyage to Nanyang. Have you heard about them? Where are those documents now?”

"Your Highness, Eunuch Zheng's "Zheng He's Mission to Water" should be stored in the Ministry of War. I'm afraid it won't be easy to go to the Ministry of War to investigate." Liu Jin said with some frustration.

Zhu Houzhao also knew what Liu Jin said about "Zheng He's Mission to Water". This is the full name of the archive, which includes the emperor's edict, the organization of Zheng He's fleet, lists, logbooks, accounts, etc. With this "Zheng He"

"Envoy's Journey to the Sea", it would be much easier for Ming Dynasty to go to sea. There are blueprints and nautical charts for shipbuilding, so it can be restarted anytime and anywhere.

"Go to the Ministry of War!" Zhu Houzhao stood up without even thinking and said, "Go get the clothes. I will go there myself."

Liu Jin didn't know why Zhu Houzhao was so concerned about "Zheng He's Mission to Water". He kept muttering in his heart. Soon Liu Jin thought of a possibility. His Highness didn't want to restore Zheng He's old affairs, right? Liu Jin's eyes flashed, but he

He did not speak, but kept this thought in his heart, and at the same time he also had his own thoughts.

After changing his clothes, Zhu Houzhao left the palace with his people. The news naturally spread to Qianqing Palace very quickly, but Zhu Youtang didn't pay attention.

His son was quite wild before, but this time he went to Yangzhou for a trip, and he was probably even wilder. Now leaving the palace is naturally not a big deal. After asking about the security situation, Zhu Youtang didn't ask anything else.

.

After leaving the palace, Zhu Houzhao's carriage went straight to the Ministry of War. After arriving at the entrance of the Ministry of War, someone had already gone in to report. When Zhu Houzhao got off the carriage, Liu Daxia, the Minister of War, was already greeting him at the door. There were other officials who came with him. See you.

When Zhu Houzhao was about to salute, Zhu Houzhao quickly walked up and helped Liu Daxia up.

"No courtesy, no courtesy!" Zhu Houzhao said with a smile: "I came here today to bother you, sir. I hope you won't blame me."

Liu Daxia was one of Zhu Houzhao's teachers. This was specifically requested by Zhu Houzhao. Zhu Houzhao wanted to learn military skills from Liu Daxia. With such concern, it was naturally appropriate to call him sir.

Although Liu Daxia welcomed the prince in with a smile on his face, he was murmuring in his heart, what is the purpose of His Highness the prince coming to his place? Although the emperor is young, he is prone to problems because of his young age.
