The Great Industrial Ming Dynasty Started from Beiping

Chapter 211 Princess Liao's Will
The vassal prince's mansion in the Ming Dynasty was customized and unified, but the Liao prince's mansion was only half repaired.

Guo Ying, who guarded Liaodong back then, was also the head of the Guo family, and he personally supervised the construction.

At that time, the people in Liaodong were scarce and the construction of the palace was ineffective, so Zhu Yuanzhang ordered to stop the construction of the Liaowang Palace and give priority to the development of the Liaodong Guard.

Therefore, although the King of Liao ruled in Guangning, he built a simple palace in the Daling River with a tree gate as a camp for the King of Liao to live in.

Guo Ying was transferred back to the capital, and he was in charge of the capital. The eldest son was the son-in-law, leaving behind Guo Ming, the second son. The forces in Liaodong.

The King of Liao was young, and he first came to Liaodong, unlike the King of Yan, who was appointed by a sage to be in charge of the Beiping guards, so he relied on the Guo family for everything.

Just like the time when King Yan had just established himself in Beiping, he also relied on the Xu family, Princess Yan, to recruit a group of old subordinates left by Xu Da in Beiping.

King Liao himself doesn't understand the ready-made way, and his subordinates will suggest it, so Princess Liao is in charge of a lot of things.

Guo Ming has a gentle personality. He sits on a chair with his head bowed behind the curtain. Although his own sister is in the room, he still has a respectful expression on his face, not exceeding the slightest.

The nuns outside served tea for my uncle.

"Has the girl gone back?"

The voice of Princess Liao came from inside.

"I've already returned. I'm on the same boat with the Xu family. The Yan Palace also sent the old man back to the capital. I heard that they also sent guards."

Guo Ming answered meticulously, whatever the princess asked, he answered.

The more this happened, the more King Liao trusted him when he learned about it.

His father taught by example and precept, the family style is very strict.

The character of each head of the family determines the family's approach.

The earliest Xu Guogong, as a top honor, he was very restrained, never extraneous thoughts, let alone perverted.

In terms of power, the Xu family is much more powerful than Lan Yu.

But some people can't let go of military power, like Lan Yu, who wantonly recruited sons and promoted his cronies. This fate did not surprise everyone.

Political power comes from the barrel of a gun. Although there is no such saying in ancient times, everyone knows the truth. You are a noble, what do you want to do with such a military power.

Princess Liao asked: "Princess Yan's meaning is very clear. She has taken a fancy to our big girl. Second brother, you are the biological father of the big girl. What's your idea?"

Guo's eldest son has no daughters, only three sons, and Guo Cailian is the eldest daughter of the second son, so Princess Liao called her a big girl.

Guo Ming looked troubled.

The prestige of King Yan surpassed that of King Qin and King Jin, and the generals under his command were the old subordinates of Xu Guogong. In terms of combat effectiveness alone, they were considered top-notch.

And King Yan himself has outstanding talents and has made many military exploits. Over the years, he has come from behind, and someone secretly rumored that he is the number one prince in the northern border.

The second-generation daughter of the Guo family is Princess Liao, and the third-generation daughter can become the eldest concubine of Yan Wangfu, which can indeed bring the Guo family to a higher level.

But things can't just look at the surface.

The mind of a saint, who can guess it accurately, it is not a good thing to be too early.

"I can't make up my mind about this matter. I have already sent someone to the capital to ask my father what he means. Let my father decide."

Princess Liao understood that the second elder brother was always conservative in his work.

"My lord thinks it's good, and I can get closer to my fourth brother, but this is a big matter, so I really can't be careless." Princess Liao sighed.

Guo Ming lowered his head and did not speak.

After a moment of silence, Princess Liao said faintly: "The situation in Liaodong is complicated, and the prince is uneasy. The fourth brother has been in the domain for a long time. Although he and the prince are brothers, they don't really have much friendship."

Whether in Daning or Liaodong, King Yan is an unavoidable figure.

Just like in Shaanxi, whether it is the old Fourteenth King Su or the old sixteenth brother Qing King, they all have to look at the old third King Jin.

As for the second son, King Qin, the crimes committed in the past few years cannot be easily eliminated, and he is still working hard to perform in order to regain Zhu Yuanzhang's trust.

"This matter depends on the capital in the end, let it take its course." Guo Ming pointed out the key point.

"Even so, we can't turn a deaf ear to it. It's not beautiful if the fourth sister-in-law is dissatisfied. Second brother should go to Peiping himself."

"Order the imperial concubine's order."

Guo Ming stood up and cupped his hands.

……

In just over a few years, Jinzhou Wei has grown from one thousand households to five thousand households, most of whom are from the south.

Commander Sun Yan is not only busy with the affairs of the guard, but also how to win people's hearts is his main work direction.

As a veteran, he has that confidence.

Today I was free, so I sent people to the forest farm, and Wang Zhen from the forest farm was recruited.

Sun Yan used to be guarding thousands of households in Yanshan, and now he is the commander of Jinzhou Guard. Wang Zhen used to be a hundred households of the right guard of Yanshan, but now he is the right guard of thousands of households.

Although the two were not in the same guard, Wang Zhen still regarded himself as a subordinate in front of Sun Yan, and did not dare to show off in front of veteran Sun Yan.

"How is the forest farm developing recently?" Sun Yan asked curiously.

Wang Zhen didn't hide anything, and told him everything.

Both the Japanese pirates and the Jinzhou Navy needed Sun Yan to take care of them, otherwise the forest farm would not be able to develop under Sun Yan's nose.

Sun Yan smiled satisfied upon hearing this.

A person of the old school has old ideas. He regards himself as a vassal of the King of Yan and regards the King of Yan as his own monarch.

It is precisely because of these old-school ideas that Zhu Yuanzhang made a big effort to reform the system of the palace, and reduced the two ranks of the palace to the long history.

So when he learned that the forestry farm had achieved gratifying results, Sun Yan was not only not worried about the illegal practices of the forestry farm, but was only happy for the increase in the strength of the palace.

Wang Zhen was not surprised by Sun Yan's attitude.

Most people in the old school were like this, and his own old man also did the same thing, which affected many children.

In history, the king of Yan raised troops and was weak, but he was able to quickly get the response of the guards. This is the reason for this historical background.

At that time, Sun Yanqianhu, who had been an official for many years, took the initiative to go out of the mountain and lead his children to defect to the King of Yan, and fought hard for the king's predecessors. He was also a representative figure among them.

"If I don't come to Liaodong, I will naturally ignore the affairs of Liaodong, but now that I am the commander of the Jinzhou Guard, then the affairs of Liaodong are my responsibility."

"The King of Liao can't be counted on, and the situation in Liaodong is complicated. The small country of North Korea dares to occupy our celestial territory. This old man really can't stand it."

"It has already been said that the prince should punish North Korea."

Hearing this, Wang Zhen couldn't laugh or cry.

In Nuergan outside Liaodong, there are still Mongols, Jurchens, Jirimen, Kuyi, Daur, Qilieren, and Beishan people.

And North Korea's ambitions are not small.

Goryeo, the predecessor of North Korea, took advantage of the chaotic situation at the end of Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of Ming Dynasty more than ten years ago, and occupied a lot of land.

That is, Pyongan Road and Hamgyong Road in North Korea.

North Korea also conspired with Nuergan to force all ethnic groups of Nuergan to surrender to North Korea. They wanted to use this to expand their land for thousands of miles, and they had a lot of appetite.

North Korea in the late Ming Dynasty was like a soft persimmon that anyone could squeeze.

In the early Ming Dynasty, North Korea was not weak. It bullied Nuergan's various ministries all the year round, and often invaded and harassed Nuergan's ministries.

That's why North Korea has ambitions and dares to conspire with slaves.

"Before the Lanyu case, the imperial court's military focus was on Mongolia. The most recent victory was fishing in the sea of ​​fish, so I didn't care about it for the time being."

"The sudden death of the crown prince and the big case of Lanyu have stopped my efforts to expand and recover the land. There has been no major military mobilization in the past two years."

Wang Zhen tried his best to persuade the veteran.

The great victory of the Japanese pirates the year before last made the veteran's index finger twitch, he felt that his sword was not old, and he could still expand the territory for the imperial court.

With his old age, General Sun saw the proficiency of the guard's training in a short period of time, and Wang Zhen next door saw it in his eyes.

But he didn't think it was time.

Now that there are many events, I really can't take care of them.

If it weren't for the delay of these things, many historical issues left over from Liaodong, Nuergan, and North Korea would have been resolved long ago.

The arrangement of the imperial court in Liaodong for many years was to prepare for solving these problems. Even the palace was not built, and the guards were fully developed, which shows Zhu Yuanzhang's determination.

But people are not as good as heaven, the saint is old, and no one knows whether the emperor's grandson will change his national policy.

If it is changed, to what extent it will be changed, no one can predict.

King Jin is strengthening his own strength, and so is King Yan, all preparing for unknowable changes.

Sun Yan sighed. He obviously had strength, but he couldn't show it. Sun Yan was very angry when he thought of North Korea setting up guards in Hamgyong and Pyongan Roads.

"What does the little prince think about this?" Sun Yan put his mind on Zhu Gaochi.

In his opinion, what Zhu Gaochi has done is very qualified. This is what the heir to the prince should do, and he should expand.

"The little prince strives to stabilize the power of the palace, strengthen the influence of the palace among you, develop internal affairs, and improve people's livelihood. I am afraid that it will be impossible to take care of North Korea in a short time."

"The name is not right and the words are not right. After all, Liaodong belongs to Shandong, and it is the little prince's luck that the palace can intervene in Jinzhou."

Wang Zhen replied seriously.

"It's a pity, it's a pity." Sun Yan couldn't help shaking his head, "Those civil servants are too hateful, and they plan on their own people every day."

Wang Zhen smiled, not paying attention to General Sun's complaints.

General Sun regarded himself as a vassal of King Yan, so he naturally started from the point of view of King Yan, but in the eyes of the court, King Yan was not the only one.

After learning about the actual situation of the forest farm, Sun Yan calculated the strength he controlled, and also wrote a letter to King Yan.

soon.

When Liao Wang's mansion came to Beiping, Yan Wang Zhu Di also received Sun Yan's letter, and at about the same time, Zhu Gaochi also received the report from the forest farm.

Zhu Gaochi was at the headquarters, discussing with Zhou Shifeng, the president of the food stamp bank, Cai Wen from the finance department, etc., to discuss the implementation of food stamps within China Heavy Industries.

"Since the use of food stamps, they have won the trust of the outside world, and there has been no problem so far, so the workers can accept it logically."

Zhou Shifeng agreed.

The rest had no opinion either.

Food stamps are different from treasure banknotes. Food stamp banks are strictly managed and have grain and silver exchanges, so their reputation is much higher than that of treasure banknotes.

"In order to strengthen the adaptation of food stamps and increase people's confidence, the supply and marketing cooperative to be opened by China Heavy Industry has prepared a wealth of commodities, which are cheaper than the market prices."

Cai Wen followed suit.

Zhu Gaochi listened to everyone's opinions and thought of all the problems he could think of, so he stopped hesitating and unified the application for paying wages with small food stamps.
