Daming: Refining zombies at the beginning, Lao Zhu was shocked

Chapter 155 Chapter 155: The whole city welcomes the Holy Emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang arrives at Hanzhong Mansion!

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the neat and clean street in front of him. There were also dedicated women and elderly men on the street who were responsible for sweeping away garbage. This is why the street was so clean!

On such a clean street, if someone urinates or defecates anywhere, Zhu Yuanzhang would feel disgusted just thinking about it!

The drunkard who got beaten was just because he drank a few cups of horse piss and then let water on the street. Who else could he beat?

It would be great if every town in the Ming Dynasty could be so neat and well behaved!

For example, Hanzhong City and Xi'an City are the two cities that currently have the most foreign trade and trade in the Ming Dynasty. They also represent the facade of the Ming Dynasty. Situations like this really need to be paid attention to!

After all, this is also related to the impression of these foreigners on the Ming Dynasty!

Soon, under the guidance of Wu Qinggui, Zhu Yuanzhang and his party also arrived at the current Prince Qin's Mansion!

To be precise, it can no longer be called Prince Qin's Mansion, because the plaque with the three characters "Prince Qin's Mansion" hanging on the door has been taken down.

For example, people who come to Xi'an Mansion for the first time, or those foreigners, have no idea that this is actually the residence of the prince at first glance.

The main reason is that the Qin Prince's Palace is indeed very grand and covers a large enough area. It is really like a miniature version of the Yingtian Palace!

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the magnificent buildings in front of him and snorted with an ugly expression!

In his early years, he scolded this boy because of Zhu Ping's large-scale construction projects!

It seems now that the scolding back then was too light!

Zhu Yuanzhang still remembered that after Qin King Zhu Ping was poisoned to death in the simulator, he also reduced the specifications of his funeral!

The main reason is that this kid has done too many things that aroused public outrage and made people miserable!

Fortunately, now that Lao Jiu has taken over Xi'an Mansion, everything is getting better, and the people's lives are getting better and better!

Along the way from the street, Zhu Yuanzhang also discovered the prosperity of Xi'an Mansion today, but Zhu Yuanzhang directly attributed all the credit for this to Lao Jiu!

After all, when the second son Zhu Xi was still in Xi'an Mansion, he received a lot of memorials and secret letters about reporting to the King of Qin. At that time, he did not see the tragic situation of the people in Xi'an Mansion, but he could also imagine that it must have happened in Xi'an Mansion. In dire straits!

Today's Xi'an Prefecture cannot be described as dire and fiery, and it has also undergone relatively thorough reforms just like the one in Hanzhong!

And those noble families, after Lao Jiu confiscated their homes and exterminated their clans and killed the chickens to scare the monkeys, they began to be honest and no longer dared to be tyrannical!

Therefore, the people's livelihood in Xi'an Prefecture today should be pretty good!

Zhu Yuanzhang was also quite satisfied with this!

The Qin Prince's Mansion in front of him was indeed a bit too dazzling, which made Zhu Yuanzhang blush a little!

This is all the fault of this brat, the second child!

I don’t know how much people’s wealth and wealth were plundered when building such a large palace?

“Where is the plaque on this gate?”

Zhu Yuanzhang pointed to the now empty plaque and asked Wu Qinggui.

"After His Highness the King of Han came to Xi'an Mansion last time, he had someone take it down."

"Wei Chen also asked His Highness the King of Han before if he should simply replace the plaque with one from the Han Palace, but His Highness the Han King refused directly, saying that it would have a bad influence!"

Wu Qinggui explained with a wry smile.

"Well, Lao Jiu is right!"

"There's no need to be so high-profile and make people unhappy!"

"Although Xi'an Mansion has been handed over to him, it is not a big deal for him to build a palace here, but the people may not see it that way!"

"Besides, he is in Hanzhong all year round and can't come to Xi'an twice a year. There is no need to do such things to save face!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he nodded with satisfaction and praised.

This is also the pattern that Lao Jiu should have!

Soon, Zhu Yuanzhang entered the palace directly.

First, he walked around the entire palace and found that the former Prince Qin's palace was indeed outrageously big. He even gnashed his teeth in hatred for the second son, Zhu Fang!

But now that the evil has been done and the second son's fiefdom has been changed, he has no intention of settling the scores again!

Having said that, after Zhu Xi changed his fiefdom, whether it was because he was always under the nose of Jin Yiwei or not, he restrained himself a lot. Compared with when he was in Xi'an Mansion, his performance was as good as heaven and earth!

Sure enough, this brat needs to be controlled by someone!

Others can't control him, so I have to do it myself!

I hope he really changes his ways!

After having dinner in the palace, Zhu Yuanzhang planned to go out and take a look at the current night market in Xi'an Mansion. How does it compare with Yingtian Mansion?

The benefits after the curfew is lifted are undoubtedly huge, and even Zhu Yuanzhang has already tasted the benefits!

The tax revenue of Yingtian Mansion alone has increased a lot, and that’s all wasted money!

When he came to the market again, Zhu Yuanzhang discovered that Xi'an Mansion was more lively at night than during the day!

"Most young and middle-aged people have to work during the day. Although Xi'an Prefecture does not have as many factories and jobs as Hanzhong Prefecture, there is still a lot of work for these people. The main reason is that the entire Xi'an Prefecture still needs development. There are many The place is still building houses!”

Wu Qinggui, who was following him, was responsible for telling Zhu Yuanzhang the current development and changes of Xi'an Mansion.

"Well, it is indeed more lively at night than during the day!"

"By the way, what is the huge wooden frame built over there for?"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, but saw a very conspicuous tall building in the distance, but it looked like a large wooden frame made of many pieces of wood!

"Oh, that's the Xi'an Commercial Building built under the orders of His Royal Highness the King of Han!"

"Because of the construction of this building, about 20,000 craftsmen were recruited in Xi'an City, which can be regarded as providing food for 20,000 people!"

Wu Qinggui explained with a smile.

In the past, if there was any big construction project, there would be a huge uproar, but when Lao Jiu started this thing, the migrant workers were all eager to participate!

why?

Because there is money to be paid, and the monthly salary is the same!

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he immediately became interested!

Wu Qinggui talked about the fact that a Hanzhong commercial building has been built in Hanzhong!

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard that the business building in Hanzhong was extremely luxurious, with jade brick floors and splendid splendor, he became even more excited!

After going to Hanzhong Mansion, he naturally wanted to take a good tour of the Hanzhong Business Building!

It is said that standing on the roof of that building, you can see the entire Hanzhong City at a glance!

"By the way, if you are interested, you can also go and see the Grand Theater in Xi'an!"

"There's one near here!"

"The King of Han has opened three large theaters in Xi'an. The business is not ordinary. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as making a fortune every day!"

Wu Qinggui suggested and praised at the same time.

"As for the big theater, there's one at Yingtian Mansion, also owned by Laojiu. We've been there several times!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he waved his hand indifferently.

After going to Hanzhong, he naturally had another chance to see the Grand Theater and so on. He stayed in Xi'an for one night. Naturally, he couldn't waste time in the Grand Theater. He still wanted to visit more!

"Then Weichen, let me take you to the nearby night market!" Upon hearing this, Wu Qinggui took Zhu Yuanzhang directly to the most prosperous night market in Xi'an!

Not to mention, the night market in Xi'an Prefecture is indeed more lively than the one in Yingtian Prefecture!

Of course, just in terms of population, Xi'an Prefecture is much larger than Yingtian Prefecture!

After all, the heritage of Xi'an is there. It has been a super big city since the Tang Dynasty. Although it is no longer what it used to be, the population size is still there!

Yingtian Mansion only developed after Zhu Yuanzhang founded the country. Even now, the population is only one million!

In terms of population alone, Xi'an Prefecture is twice that of Yingtian Prefecture!

If you just look at the population size, Xi'an is definitely the most populous city in the Ming Dynasty!

Even the capital city of Yingtian Mansion cannot compare!

In addition, the current population size of Hanzhong Mansion is approaching one million, which is equivalent to rivaling that of Yingtian Mansion!

This is Lao Jiu’s terrifying development ability!

You must know that when Lao Jiu Six years ago, the entire Hanzhong Prefecture and Tianshui area only had a population of more than 500,000!

I don’t know if Hanzhong’s population is soaring now. Can such a large place accommodate so many people?

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang became even more excited about the situation in Hanzhong Mansion!

……

The next morning.

Zhu Yuanzhang set off directly!

However, the team still has to pass through the entire city of Xi'an, enter the city from the east gate, exit the city from the west gate, and then go straight to Hanzhong Mansion!

The streets have long been crowded with people who came to watch the fun!

After knowing that the emperor was traveling, they all wanted to try their luck and see if they could have the opportunity to catch a glimpse of the emperor's face!

Zhu Yuanzhang did not disappoint the common people and directly raised the curtain of the carriage!

After all, it was only right that he finally came out and let the people admire the appearance of the Emperor of Ming Dynasty!

Zhu Yuanzhang had just pulled up the curtains of the car, and the people on the street immediately stretched their necks to look in. Fortunately, they were all blocked by guards on both sides of the street, otherwise there might be people who were not afraid of death and rushed straight away. Holy driver!

In addition, the officials of Xi'an Prefecture, led by Wu Qinggui, knelt down and worshiped Zhu Yuanzhang's carriage from a distance!

However, most of the people could not see clearly, or did not see Zhu Yuanzhang at all. Only a few people who saw it started discussing with the people around them with excitement on their faces!

However, they only dared to lower their voices and talk about this topic secretly!

……

Hanzhong, the Palace of the Prince of Han.

Zhu Yue also received news that Zhu Yuanzhang had arrived in Xi'an yesterday, and he estimated that he should be on his way to Hanzhong today!

So Zhu Yue ordered the entire Hanzhong City to undergo a general cleaning!

The old man's team should be able to arrive in Hanzhong before dark tomorrow. After all, most of the team is on foot, and even on cement roads they can't go that fast!

This period of time is enough for the entire Hanzhong City to be in the best condition to welcome the arrival of the old man!

The common people in Hanzhong Mansion immediately started working after receiving Zhu Yue's order. They were so motivated!

These ordinary people also want to see the current emperor and have a glimpse of the dragon's face!

After all, the opportunity was rare. The emperor used to live in the Yingtian Palace, which was thousands of miles away from Hanzhong. Many people basically never got to see what the emperor looked like!

Moreover, Hanzhong Mansion now has something they can be proud of. They also hope that when the Emperor comes to Hanzhong, he can see a clean and tidy Hanzhong City!

"Second uncle, are you going back?"

"My grandpa is going to Hanzhong tomorrow. Don't you want to see what the Ming Emperor looks like?"

Zhu Xifeng was looking forward to Zhu Yuanzhang's arrival. He happily ran to the inn where Saijiazhida was staying and asked him.

"Who said I was leaving?"

"The Ming Emperor is here, so naturally I have to stay. Maybe I can meet His Majesty the Emperor!"

After hearing this, Saijia Dazhida waved his hand with a serious face!

Theoretically speaking, his current status is that he can be regarded as the in-laws of the Ming Emperor!

Of course, he also knew that the Emperor of Ming Dynasty would definitely not pay attention to such a small person like him, but it would definitely not be difficult to meet him for the sake of King Zhu Li of Han Dynasty!

"Really?"

"Then can the second uncle come with us to greet Grandpa Huang tomorrow?"

When Zhu Xifeng heard this, he became even more excited.

He is naturally closer to his mother's family, and hopes that his two uncles can have a good relationship with his imperial grandfather!

"It depends on your father's arrangements!"

"These are adults' matters, so you don't have to worry about them!"

Sai Jia Guda said with a helpless smile.

Welcome the Ming Emperor?

He thinks too!

It’s just that he knows very well that he probably won’t be ranked yet!

Now he only hopes that under Zhu Li's arrangement, he can have the opportunity to meet the Ming Emperor and be satisfied with just a few words!

The palace of King Han was also extremely busy!

Although the palace that should be prepared before has been prepared, the old man will arrive soon, so naturally he still needs to check it carefully to ensure that nothing goes wrong!

However, Concubine Zhou, Lady Cao and Lady Li are still in good spirits.

Only Saijia Sutushan still looked a little uneasy.

In addition, she was still pregnant, so Zhu Li had to take some time to enlighten her.

In the afternoon of the next day, everyone in the palace was ready. Zhu Yue also notified all the officials in Hanzhong City to go outside the city to meet the Holy Emperor!

Soon, Zhu Yue led a large group of people to the outside of the city, naturally bringing his wife, children, and children with him!

"Your Majesty, your Majesty's team still has three miles to go, and it will take about a stick of incense to arrive!"

At this moment, Geng Qing, who went to investigate the situation, ran back quickly and reported to Zhu Yue.

"Well, get ready to welcome the Holy Driver!"

Hearing this, Zhu Li couldn't help but nodded.

Looking at the countless people around who heard the news and came to watch, Zhu Yue also felt a sense of emotion in his heart. This is the sensation caused by the emperor's trip!

I'm afraid it won't be so lively during the Chinese New Year!
