The matter of asking for the method of making the bomb, followed by Lu Yaoyao's asking price, stopped for a short time.

In the next few days, the imperial court's focus will be divided into two steps. The first is naturally the war in the southern region. The southern border has once again suppressed the army.

After almost two months of delay, the Southern Xinjiang side seems to have realized that if this continues, their strategy this time will fail.

After all, so many people have been mobilized, so much money and food, if there is no result at all, it will be a loss.

As for turning around and attacking Northern Chu, it's not that they haven't thought about it, but the ruler of Southern Border refused to allow it.

The Lord of Southern Border is also a proud person. If he turns his head to attack Northern Chu now, wouldn’t he be telling the people in the world that they are afraid of Dongzhou in Southern Border, and when they took the initiative to attack, they were afraid of being beaten by Dongzhou and dared not fight against them again? Dongzhou shot.

This is not only a shame for him alone, but a shame for the whole southern Xinjiang.

Therefore, no matter whether it is self-willed or full of self-confidence, the ruler of the southern border has no choice.

However, there are still a lot of bombs in Dongzhou, and they are not afraid of the attack from the southern border. Although the war has already started, there are not small losses, but overall, combined with the current situation in Dongzhou, as long as it can be stopped It is a victory for Nanjiang to enter the territory of Dongzhou.

After all, although Southern Xinjiang is now strong, it has been accumulated over many years of peace and stability. If this battle fails to achieve results, Southern Xinjiang will suffer greater losses than Dongzhou.

Because they don't have such things as sweet potatoes and potatoes. Food is the most important thing in a country. If the people can't even eat, then the country will not be far from chaos.

Most of the land in southern Xinjiang is mountain forests, and there are not many fertile food production areas. They cannot afford to delay the war.

Although Dongzhou's military strength and current national strength are a bit weaker than those of Southern Xinjiang, the people of Dongzhou, aristocratic families, and businessmen still have a lot of food in their hands, which can be consumed in a short period of time.

Coupled with the fact that Dongzhou is on the defensive side, the confrontation with ease and waiting for work is naturally much better than the southern Xinjiang army that came from the expedition.

Although the issue in southern Xinjiang is the most important, it is still relatively stable.

Apart from this matter, another urgent matter for the court is the reconciliation with Northern Chu.

The envoys from other places have been in Dongzhou for a while, and both sides attach great importance to the matter of reconciliation. In addition, there is no one acting as a monster, so it was settled very quickly.

A settlement agreement was signed yesterday, and at the same time, Northern Chu also agreed to support Dongzhou with food and some military supplies to fight against southern Xinjiang.

Emperor Hongwen was naturally happy about this, and it would be good to pay for money, food and equipment. As for telling people, he had never thought about it, and he would not agree.

After all, it is the army of Northern Chu, so there is no reason to allow other countries' troops to enter the hinterland of one's own country. Although the settlement agreement has been signed, this thing is just a piece of waste paper at some point.

"With the news of the reconciliation alliance between Dongzhou and Northern Chu, I am afraid that Nanjiang will not last long."

In Chengyuan Villa, Lu Yaoyao drank tea quite leisurely.

The most troublesome thing is about to be solved, and she can sleep peacefully.

"Miss, are we going to start preparing to invite people to the housewarming party?"

"Well, let's get ready. Just like what I said earlier, all noble officials in the capital who meet the ranks are invited."

"Also ask everyone in the village to prepare the venue and some things needed for the banquet. Remember to use money to buy things from the village households."

Qiushuang nodded again and again.

It's easy at Chengyuan Villa, but it's not easy at some people's house in the capital.

For example, Yan Zuo, the servant of the Ministry of Industry, whose official hat was taken off by the current court, seemed to be ten years old in just over ten days.

Although Emperor Hongwen didn't punish him other than being dismissed from office, but he lost his official position, and the person he offended was Princess Wanfu, so his life in the capital was not easy during this period.

Those old friends in the past are now hiding from the plague god even more when they see him. Even the Shangguan who valued him in the past and planned to cultivate him vigorously, that is, the Minister of the Household Department, now refuses to walk around with him.

Even when Yan Zuo visited the door several times, he was turned away.

Some people may think that this Lu Yaoyao didn't do anything to him?Why did he become like this?
First of all, what kind of absolute friends are there in the officialdom? Secondly, the one he offended was Princess Wanfu. How many people in the noble circle in the capital want to befriend Lu Yaoyao?
If it was Yan Zuo, a third-rank official in the past, these people might still take care of one or two things, but now Yan Zuo has been dismissed from office, but he is just a commoner, and his grade is not as good as that of a small official. Who would be afraid of him? ?

It's not like everyone is here to bully one or two, if something is done and it reaches the ears of Princess Wanfu, if she is happy, it is an achievement, isn't it?

As for why Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry did not see him, the main reason was still fear.

After all, Emperor Hongwen's fury that day scared many people out of their wits.

After calming down, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry carefully recalled what happened in the court that day, and realized later that Emperor Hongwen didn't intend to ask Lu Yaoyao for the method of making a bomb.

Why doesn't he want such a good thing?Have you ever spoken?

It is obviously impossible. Since he has already asked for it but has not yet obtained it, it must be that Princess Wanfu said something to him, which made him feel very reasonable, so he did not ask for it.

And these people still think that one of them is helping Emperor Hongwen and will get benefits. As a result, the rightful owner has no intention of taking it, and you still insist on robbing him. Isn't it embarrassing to drag the emperor along?

It's no wonder that Emperor Hongwen took Yan Zuo directly in the court.

Because he figured it out, he also knew that Yan Zuo came to him because he wanted him to say hello to His Majesty.

If it's an ordinary thing, it doesn't matter if he goes, but this time it's different, this is the chief culprit who made the emperor lose his lord.

Now the emperor has not given follow-up punishment, if he goes to say please, maybe the emperor will be taken down by Yan Zuo in a fit of anger, I am afraid that this guy will not be able to stay in the capital at that time, and there may even be Life is in danger.

Of course, apart from Kaiyan Zuo, he might follow suit.

"Why is this so? I, Yan Zuo, only care about the imperial court. Why is this so?"

In Yan Zuo's mansion, he was carrying the jug depressedly, leaning on the table drunkenly, muttering why repeatedly in his mouth.

Obviously, what Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry said was for the imperial court and for His Majesty. If he did well, his chances of being promoted to replace Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry would be greatly improved.

During the period, I also analyzed a lot with him. It can be said that it is a sure thing. Why did it become like this?

At first he thought it was to share his majesty's worries, but he never thought that he would end up like this in the end, he really couldn't figure it out.
