Daming: Distribution of Lingnan, you develop the Pearl River Delta?

Chapter 190

Madam Ma, Empress Ma is qualified to be conferred.

Moreover, this is a great honor.

It can be said that giving Luo Min 100 million taels of silver would make the couple happier.

After all, Mrs. Gaoming can’t be bought with money!
"All right!"

Queen Ma didn't ask why.

In fact, she knew it without asking.

This Luo Min must be capable.

Therefore, Zhu Ping wanted to win over him and make him grateful.

As a mother, I naturally want to help my son.

What's more, Zhu Ping's achievements are here.

Outstanding ability.

Although Empress Ma did not want to participate in the matter of establishing the crown prince, she also felt that the future throne must belong to Zhu Ping.

It would be a crime to give it to someone else!

That means not taking the future of the Ming Dynasty seriously!

I am confused.

When they arrived at Luo Min's house, Luo Min brought her daughter-in-law to visit her.

Zhu Xi asked: "Mrs. Luo, is that a woman from that family?"

Hearing this, Luo Min replied in a low voice: "Your Highness, my wife comes from a poor family, but she and I love each other very well. Moreover, she is virtuous and virtuous, and has helped me a lot."

"It's all my concubine's duty!" Luo Min's wife responded in a low voice.

"Look, look!"

Zhu Fang smiled and said: "Luo Min, you have a good sense. This wife is a good wife! As for her background... Haha, recently in Panyu Prefecture and Huizhou Prefecture, I heard that many families have each other. The meaning of intermarriage. In fact, I think that this kind of marriage where we know each other and love each other is worthy of encouragement. As such, I will ask my mother to confer Mrs. Luo with the title of fourth grade imperial edict. How about it, queen?"

"Why the fourth grade?" Empress Ma was puzzled.

This imperial edict is conferred according to the husband's rank.

Luo Min is only seventh grade, a small county magistrate!
Why is he fourth grade?
Moreover, if there is no word Cong, then it is the fourth grade.

"My mother doesn't know something. After September, Luo Min will be appointed as the governor of Gaoshan Island. By then, he will be in the fourth rank." Zhu Xi explained.

"Thank you so much, Your Highness, and thank you Queen!"

Luo Min quickly pulled his wife to thank him.

Empress Ma smiled and said: "Okay, let's canonize him then!"

As long as she said something, Zhu Ping would naturally send someone to arrange the rest of the canonization ceremony.

Luo Min and his wife were so excited that they shed tears.

It can be said that I am so grateful!

Zhu Xi was happy.

Because he knew that from now on, Luo Min would be his die-hard loyalist.

According to the understanding of people in this era, Zhu Ming's kindness to Luo Min would take a lifetime to repay.

After settling Luo Min's affairs, he stayed at his house for a day. Early the next morning, Zhu Xi took a boat to go to sea.

Because Donte is no longer here.

A new port was to be built in Huizhou Prefecture, so Tang Gong went there.

The port here is just a dock, so naturally new people will take over.

This is not the first time that Queen Ma has boarded this new type of boat.

Moreover, today's ships are no longer steamships.

The power system is also slowly being upgraded and improved.Now the boat is starting to burn more fuel, and its power is stronger than before, and its speed is better.

Moreover, the noise and smell are reduced a lot.

In addition, the hull is more stable when driving.

"Zhang'er, how much money does it cost to build such a ship?" Queen Ma got on the boat, enjoying juice and barbecue, and couldn't help but ask Zhu Xi to get to the bottom of it.

Zhu Ming smiled and said: "Mother, the cost of building such a ship is at least 500 million taels of silver. This kind of ship is no better than the previous ships. The technology in many places is more advanced and it takes longer to build. In the past, it was a If you can build two ships in a month, it’s good if you can build one ship in two months, so the cost is relatively high!”

"Then this time, we go to sea with six big ships!"

Queen Ma was shocked and said: "Is this 3000 million taels of silver traveling on this water?"

"Haha, that's pretty much it!"

Zhu Xi nodded, but also explained: "But Queen Mother, Erchen actually didn't spend that much money. Think about it, the iron and steel on this ship are all ores that Erchen brought back from overseas, and there is no need to buy them at all. . What Erchen just said was the publicly announced cost of a ship."

This means that the announced cost is 500 million taels per ship.

In fact, Zhu Xi doesn’t need so much money at all?

Queen Ma rolled her eyes and said, "You're the only one who's very thoughtful!"

"Yeah!" Xu Miaoyun nodded on the side.

"Girl, why are you nodding? This is your husband, why don't you turn to him?" Queen Ma teased.

Xu Miaoyun responded: "The Queen Mother is the greatest, I must first look towards the Queen Mother!"

"How about you, girl, I like you so much?" Queen Ma was very happy.

At this time, her eldest daughter-in-law brought another plate of barbecue and said with a smile: "Mother, what did your daughter-in-law do badly that made you dislike it?"

"I like it too, I like it too!"

Empress Ma was in a very high mood today. After all, this was the first time she went to sea in her life, and her son and daughter-in-law were by her side to support her. It was normal to be happy, so she talked more and even talked about the past: "Back then, Fortunately, your father was brave. We were trapped in traps several times. If it hadn’t been for him, General Chang, we wouldn’t be where we are today! Alas, it’s just... Boren, I didn’t live to see our current Ming Dynasty!”

Speaking of Chang Yuchun, Xu Da also sighed at the waves.

Chang Caiyu couldn't help it, and her tears were rolling.

Zhu Xiang quickly persuaded: "Sister-in-law, today is the day when we all go to sea together, so we can't cry! As the saying goes, you can't admonish those who have gone by, but you can still chase those who have come. Why don't you cherish the present, sister-in-law?"

"Cherish the moment……"

When Chang Caiyu heard this, he didn't know what he thought of, but when no one was paying attention, he blushed at Zhu Ping.

Judging from the look in her eyes, Zhu Xi felt something was wrong.

Then, Chang Caiyu actually went to the cabin.

But at the hatch, you can still see a little of her skirt.

What does this mean?
Zhu Ming looked at Zhu Biao on the side, walked over and said, "Brother, my sister-in-law was a little sentimental just now. She has gone back to the cabin now. Go and have a look."

"Second brother, I'm grilling here. I can't leave. Go and give me some advice, ah!" Zhu Biao seemed to be attracted by the delicious food, and he was completely focused on the fresh cooking method of barbecue. It's not leaving for a moment.

Moreover, he also took the initiative to ask Zhu Ping to go to Quanchang to pick jade.

"Isn't that good?" Zhu Xi refused.

Zhu Biao said with a heartless look: "What's wrong? We are brothers and a family. In the future, she and Xiongying will also need you to take care of them. Are you going to take care of their mother and son like this in the future?"

Zhu Xi was speechless.

"Okay, then I'll go and have a look."

He was helpless.

Zhu Biao directly killed his army, can he not go?
Then he walked to the cabin.

But as soon as he entered, he was pulled into a secret door by a hand.

It’s Chang Caiyu!

Now the two of them are almost body-to-body.
