Chapter 524: The Autumn Wind Is Strong and the Weather Is Cold, the King of Han Goes to the South of the Yangtze River in Anger!

Zhou Chen was designed.
The investigation of official fields in Jiangnan also ended without any success.
No wonder Xia Yuanji, the Minister of Household Affairs, rushed to Jiangnan to deal with the aftermath.
After Zhou Chen made such a fuss, the relationship between the Jiangnan gentry and the Ming court became a little awkward.
Originally, Jiangnan, as a place of great wealth, had something to do with Zhang Shicheng, the private salt tycoon who was entrenched in Jiangnan. It was a retaliatory policy of Comrade Zhu Chongba, the great emperor of Taizu.
The people in Jiangnan were severely taxed and complained against the court, but the court could not collect taxes and grain. In the end, all the money and grain in the sacred land of Jiangnan fell into the hands of the gentry!
So, is it useful for Xia Yuanji to go here?
Even if he is the Minister of Household Affairs, even if he is a court magnate, I'm afraid it will still be useless!
After all, Zhou Chen had the reputation of being an imperial envoy, but wasn't he also framed by those gentry and ended up with a miserable end of ruined reputation?
How can this old guy Xia Yuanji be any better?
Zhu Gaoxu's face was gloomy and uncertain, and his slender fingers were tapping the desk regularly.
Soon His Majesty the Emperor became impatient and said in a deep voice: "Stop knocking and come up with an idea!"
"Oh, I caused the trouble, let me solve it!"
Zhu Gaoxu chuckled lightly and turned to look at Zhu Di.
"Dad, the food and fodder for the armies of the kings of Central and South China must not stop. After all, there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers. We cannot let them be slaughtered like animals because of lack of food!"
"Isn't it just a lack of food? The court is short of food and the people are short of food, but those people are not short of food at all and are extremely rich!"
Upon hearing these murderous words, Zhu Di's expression immediately changed.
"Second brother, what do you want to do?"
"Go to Jiangnan!"
Zhu Gaoxu spoke decisively without any hesitation.
Zhou Chen, as his younger brother, was beaten like this.
If he, the eldest brother, doesn't go, how can he still hang out in Daming in the future?
Damn it, those beasts in Jiangnan, if you don’t give them a hard time, they really think they are some kind of local emperor!
Zhu Di stood up suddenly in shock and shook his head subconsciously.
"no!"
"I don't agree!"
"When you go to Jiangnan, why don't you kill and bleed like a river?!"
Zhu Di knows his second oldest brother very well.
A vulgar warrior who crawled out from among the dead!
Stinky Qiu Ba rushed out of the mountain of swords and sea of blood!
When he was in the Yingtian Imperial Capital, he dared to scold the emperor and beat his grandson. He was so arrogant and domineering!
In the past two years, he had been hiding in Peking Xindu doing some industrial and commercial construction, and then he calmed down and did not cause any trouble.
But just because it has been restrained does not mean that it is gone.
Zhu Di was really afraid. He was afraid that this rebellious man would go to Jiangnan and directly destroy the whole world in Jiangnan. No one could stop him yet!
"Dad, what are you afraid of?"
Zhu Gaoxu asked angrily.
"Afraid that your son will support his own troops and rebel in Jiangnan?"
"shit!"
"Afraid that your son's failure to handle Jiangnan's money and food issues will cause the situation to become even more corrupt?"
"Silly words!"
"In that case, what are you still afraid of?"
"you……"
Zhu Di sighed and whispered: "Second brother, dad has always seen what you did in Peiping, and you did a good job."
"If you go to Jiangnan now, what will happen to the industry and commerce that you finally created?"
"Dad doesn't want you to do these dangerous things anymore."
After all, they are all his own sons, and the throne has been given to the eldest son. How can he, Zhu Di, have the nerve to keep using his second son as a sword?
When conquering the world, let the second child charge into battle, go through life and death, and almost die several times!
When he was in power, he also asked his second son to punish corrupt officials and crack down on corruption severely.
The second son did all the things that were fatal and offending, and as a result, he couldn't get the throne.
Now that the second brother is angry and goes to the south of the Yangtze River, he is afraid that there will be rivers of blood and mountains of corpses. When the boss comes to power, how will he, the prince of Han, escape unscathed?
"Okay old man, I caused the trouble, so naturally I should solve it!"
"But I don't want anyone to interfere with the industry and commerce in the new capital of Beiping. Let's leave it to Guo Zi for the time being!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Gaoxu stood up and prepared to end the conversation.
Zhu Di looked at Aiko's back and opened his mouth to say something, but he didn't know what to say.
The situation in Jiangnan has been completely corrupted because of Zhou Chen's design, and people must be sent to solve it.
But who should be sent?
Cool official!
Ku Li is undoubtedly the best candidate!
He must be a ruthless official with means and scheming, otherwise he will be like Zhou Chen and be plotted by those Jiangnan gentry.
The previous Ji Gang was good, but it was a pity that he was killed by the second child.
However, the current imperial court lacks such manpower!
Perhaps, letting the second child take a trip to Jiangnan is the only way at the moment!
"Dick!"
"I allow you to take Tiance Guard and Feixiong Guard with you!"
Zhu Di gritted his teeth and said harshly: "Since you want to go, then go!"
"If we go with two forbidden troops, at least our safety will be guaranteed!"
"Just go ahead and do it. Even if you plow the south of the Yangtze River and break the sky, dad will support you!"
Zhu Gaoxu was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed loudly.
"Old man, just wait!"
"After lying flat for so long, it's time to get out and move around!"
"I would like to see if these powerful gentry and aristocratic families only have one head!"
…
East China Sea, Ningguo.
Zheng and Wang Jinghong stood on the deck. Even though their faces were weathered, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net could not conceal their joy and excitement from the bottom of their hearts.
"Ning Guo is finally back!"
Wang Jinghong sighed with emotion and burst into tears at some point.
When Zheng He heard this, his eyes couldn't help but turn red, and he tried not to let his tears fall.
Two years!
Two whole years!
Except for those few short months in America, they have been drifting on the sea for the entire time!
Storms, pirates, water bandits, high waves, scorching sun, disease...
The navy officers and soldiers who once set out on high-spirited voyages to sea are now reduced to the last ten, and all of them are injured and sick...
On this long voyage, this time exploring new routes, the Ming Navy paid an extremely heavy price!
Thinking of this, even Zheng He, a man who rode the wind and waves, had tears in his eyes at this moment.
During the two-year voyage, they had been really miserable, so miserable that they even fell into despair several times.
Fortunately, all efforts pay off!
They successfully arrived in America and found the "god seed" from the local indigenous people!
In fact, Zheng and Wang Jinghong were not sure whether those things were "god seeds"!
Therefore, Zheng He made a bold decision and brought back all the food crops and unseen plant seeds in that area!
It's better to make a mistake than to let it go!
"This journey is not easy!"
"We will arrive in Ningguo soon, and we can finally relax!"
Wang Jinghong wiped away his tears and could not hide his relaxed expression.
However, Zheng He shook his head, his expression still solemn.
"No."
"It's not time to relax yet."
"Give the order, don't relax, be ready to fight at any time!"
When Wang Jinghong heard this, his expression suddenly changed.
"You mean...Prince Ning?"
