After visiting the lake with a group of young men in their prime, Hou Xuanyan and Yang Zhan returned to the shore. It was too late. They stayed in a villa in Hangzhou and waited to leave Hangzhou early tomorrow morning.

This experience made him know that the martial arts lecture hall was quite successful, and it can be seen from the perspective of the leopard that one can cultivate such a motivated young man must have his own set.

On a quiet autumn night, Hou Xuanyan leaned on the bed, his eyes opened, and he felt an inexplicable excitement in his heart.

He lifted the thin brocade quilt and stood up. Hou Xuanyan came to the yard wearing a silk shirt.

Half a crescent moon is like a hook, hanging in the sky, decorated with stars.

"One hook is enough to be the best in the world, why do you have to be as bright as ten?"

Yang Zhan in the next room pushed the door open and exclaimed: "Prince, you're so literary!"

"Haha, Yuliang, you haven't slept. This is not my poem, but I'm just listening to people chanting. I've recorded it by the way. It's just the scene tonight." Hou Xuanyan lifted the stone under his feet and said with his head down.

Yang Zhan took a step forward and said, "The prince can't sleep at night. Could it be that he has something to worry about?"

Hou Xuanyan sat on the railing in the courtyard, holding his knees, and said, "It's nothing to worry about. It's just a cold autumn night, and it's just a lonely pillow. Look at the stars in the sky, it's like the prosperous times today. Unfortunately, I don't know how many days the clear sky can take. How many wise kings and capable ministers from ancient times to the present can only maintain a timely era of great governance. Yao Chong and Song Jing are not virtuous, but they have no choice but to follow Yuyang's drum; just like Zhang Juzheng of this dynasty, who saved the prime minister for a while, it's hard to stop the Ming Dynasty from falling into the previous situation. I think your efforts will sooner or later, and I have to sigh."

Yang Zhan secretly glanced at Hou Xuanyan and found that he looked lonely and had no other expression. He said, "Although those old friends left their names in history, they must be a little lacking with the prince. Although the officials have not been in Jiangnan for a long time, they are so rich and prosperous, which has never been recorded in history books. It can be seen that the prince's achievements have surpassed the ancients. Even today, I have heard that the prince's reputation has been high among the people and the army, which has never been seen in ancient and modern times."

Hou Xuanyan stood up, laughed, shook his head and said, "I'm too anxious. If you can't force such a thing, you can't do it as you wish, but you want to be worthy of your heart. Sleep..." After that, he walked into the room.

Yang Zhan gritted his teeth and said in a calm voice: "Prince!"

Hou Xuanyan picked up the silk shirt and looked at him in confusion: "Hmm?"

"The Sichuan Barracks and the Xichuan military and civilians are all grateful to the prince for his great kindness to support Sichuan, but he was dispatched and the millions of people in Shu were absolutely unparalleled."

Hou Xuanyan stared at him for a while, but Yang Zhan's eyes did not dodge, and it lasted for dozens of times. Hou Xuanyan's muscles twitched and said with a smile: "Okay, I remember this sentence."

The next morning, Hou Xuan played a five-animal show with a refreshing spirit, and saw Yang Zhan pushing out the door, his eyes a little dark, and it seemed that he had not had a good rest.

"Your Majesty, I woke up so early."

After Hou Xuanyan took the move, he smiled and said, "I'm used to it, and it's hard to fall asleep in the morning. Let's go. There is still something else in Jinling, waiting for me to deal with it."

Yang Zhan promised and came outside with Hou Xuanyan. His personal soldiers had already decided to leave the carriage.

Outside Hangzhou City, famous civil and military officials, gentry and celebrities from Jiangsu and Zhejiang came to see each other off. Hou Xuanyan waved his hand from the curtain of the car, and the vast guard of honor began to set off. After walking a long distance, Yang Zhan looked back. The crowd at the gate of the city had not yet dissipated.

The prince is in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and his reputation is no less than Mr. Qian. After this marriage, it is even more unbreakable. Thinking of this, Yang Zhan felt more and more that he was not wrong with his impulsive words last night.

When I looked at Hou Xuanyan again, I stretched my head and said, "Look, when I came, I said that the roads in Hangzhou were not as good as those in Suzhou. There were craftsmen working on the roadside immediately. No matter where, it would not be possible without supervision. I think people can be sent to patrol everywhere."

Yang Zhan, a rank-in-law official, naturally would not express his opinion, but just echoed a few words casually.

After returning to Jinling, Hou Xuanyan immediately recruited the Minister of Works and informed him of the construction of the "Treacherous Building of the Country" in Jinling.

Zhang Mingzhen, the Minister of Works, is in the limelight recently. The construction of infrastructure, paving bridges, roads, factories, martial arts halls, medical schools, and craftsmen are all the achievements of the Ministry of Works. Today's court is rich, and the former Minister of Works had to be careful in calculations, but now he can do it with great effort. What's even better is that building these things is not only without the loss of the people, but also in disguise as a concession to the people. Now the country's development is far ahead of the people, and only people like the prince will come up with such an idea.

Zhang Mingzhen could not forget it. After the Northern Expedition was successful, Hou Xuanyan, who was expected by the people, returned from the Northern War Zone. He was wearing shabby clothes and said famous quotes that were worthy of history. In response to Hou Xuanyan's righteousness, Zhang Mingzhen also had patches on his current old official uniform.

After listening to Hou Xuan's words, Zhang Mingzhen was eager to try and immediately proposed that he should put Zheng Zhilong on the first place.

Hou Xuanyan shook his head secretly and said, "This is a second choice. Zheng Zhilong is nominally an official of our Ming Dynasty."

Zhang Mingzhen said angrily: "This traitor turned against him several times at the critical moment of the Northern Expedition, and he also used the emperor to command the princes. He was unable to tell the rules and regulations. He really deserved to be cut into pieces."

Although Zheng Zhilong deserves to die, he is fighting with the Dutch. If he rashly sends troops, he misses the opportunity to use their dog to bite the dog to weaken them. Hou Xuanyan thought carefully and decided not to change his original intention and said, "First, with Shi Kefa, He Tengjiao and the three main culprits in the regicide case must also be in front, including Lu Zhenfei, Liu Zhongzao, Huang Daozhou, Zhai Shizuo, Ding Kuichu, Zhu Zongfan, Lu Daqi, and Su Guansheng... Please go all up."

Zhang Mingzhen said in his heart: "This is almost a list of Donglin. The prince's hatred for Donglin Fushe is still deep."

Hou Xuan's speech kept talking and continued, "The treacherous and treacherous and treacherous and traitors should also be placed with portraits and tablets for them. Fan Wencheng, Wu Sangui, Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, and Shang Kexi, those who escaped will also draw them in advance. Sooner or later, I will capture them alive and behead them in front of the building."

Both of them were jealous of evil and were very concerned about this matter. They discussed it all afternoon with their heads. After the list was added and deleted, there were no less than a hundred people. Even so, the two of them still felt that there were fewer, so they decided to brainstorm and summoned the ministers to continue to increase.

Zhang Mingzhen walked out of the palace with unfulfilled intentions, and was still checking for the shortcomings in his mind, for fear of missing a treacherous slander.

The next morning, at the foot of Qixia Mountain on the outskirts of Jinling City, the construction of the "Treacherous Treacherous Building" had already started.
