Zhao Hongyu and his party only stayed in the capital for more than 20 days. During these 20 days, most of them were spent wandering on the streets.
And Mrs. Wang has been by his side these days and has never left at all.
Therefore, under such circumstances, Master Wang was able to catch up with the butler of the Minister of War, which really made Zhao Hongyu look high.
This is a master of public relations.
Zhao Hongyu thought to himself.
Faced with Zhao Hongyu¡¯s inquiry, Mrs. Wang smiled sheepishly.
"Your Highness, actually this is not difficult. After all, our house is adjacent to the house of the Minister of War, and I see each other all the time these days. And Your Highness, your purchase of this house has also aroused the ideas of those around you. You know The original owner of this residence is the head of the Ministry of Personnel."
Zhao Hongyu listened quietly to Master Wang¡¯s story.
"Your Highness, you spent so much money to buy this house as soon as you made the move. How could it not arouse the ideas of those officials? These officials in the Ming Dynasty liked to deal with rich people the most. And the other party saw that After he came to me, he would always come up to chat with me intentionally or unintentionally, and ask some things about us. In this way, when he asked about us, I also took the opportunity to build a good relationship with him, and in the case of using money "
Having said that, Zhao Hongyu could think of the rest with his buttocks.
The steward of the Ministry of War must have been fed by money. Otherwise, it would be impossible to tell Mrs. Wang about such a thing. It was all for the sake of money.
¡°I don¡¯t know how much money Master Wang spent to achieve this effect.
Of course, this matter is actually not a huge secret. After all, according to Master Wang, the news is now spreading throughout the capital.
And the steward of the Minister of War may have thought that this was the case, so it would have nothing to do with Master Wang revealing this matter.
??Besides, in the minds of people in this era, it is impossible to have too many concepts of confidentiality. The big shots in the DPRK and some key figures may still have such thoughts, but it is impossible for this housekeeper to have such thoughts.
"You said that the Minister of War has been recruited into the palace by the emperor?"
Zhao Hongyu thought of what Master Wang had said before, and then asked again.
Mrs. Wang nodded: "Yes, just now their master came into the palace, and he happened to see me when he went out to see him off. So after seeing off their master, he came over to my place and had a chat. The villain then I know this."
Zhao Hongyu thought for a while and thought: It seems that the Minister of War was recruited into the palace, and it must be related to the affairs in Liaodong.
¡°I just don¡¯t know what kind of countermeasures His Highness the Ming Emperor and the officials in the court can have.
After Zhao Hongyu thought for a while, he gave up his plan to worry about this matter.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? What's more, this is a matter between the Jurchens and the Ming Dynasty. After all, he is the crown prince from the Song Empire in America, so why bother with such leisurely thoughts.
He still enjoys life now, takes advantage of this limited time to relax, and waits for the summons of Emperor Ming with peace of mind.
At this time, the emperor of Ming Dynasty should be Zhu Youjian, right?
¡°This tragic last emperor of the Ming Dynasty, I really want to know what he looked like.
Is it really like what was portrayed in later TV series?
Zhao Hongyu didn¡¯t know at this time that the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty at this time was no longer the one he knew, but someone who had never appeared in another time and space.
Zhu Shangwu!
In the normal history of a time and space outside Longwai, the emperor who was supposed to appear was the unlucky guy Zhu Youjian.
However, due to the arrival of Zhao Hongyu in this time and space, history has been greatly deviated. Before Zhao Hongyu came, history was running on a normal track, but because of Zhao Hongyu's appearance, an unrecognizable history began to appear.
Zhu Shangwu, a man who had never appeared in another world, has now become the master of such a large country.
And the unlucky guy Zhu Youjian who was supposed to exist has completely disappeared, as if he had never appeared in this world.
"If Zhao Hongyu knew the truth, I really don't know what kind of mood and expression he would have when facing it.
It¡¯s precisely because he doesn¡¯t know anything about it that he takes it so seriously.
"LifanyuanIs there any news over there? Now that the fifteenth anniversary has passed, hasn't the imperial court issued an edict for us to come to see you? "
After giving up thinking about the Jurchens causing trouble in Liaodong and the problem that might appear under the capital, Zhao Hongyu asked when the imperial court would summon them.
Yes, they left Yangzhou, took a boat to Tongzhou on the outskirts of the capital, and then came to the capital. They have lived here for more than twenty days.
??At the earliest, it was because of the Chinese New Year that they were unable to meet the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
But now that the fifteenth day of the lunar month has passed, and the courtiers have begun to go to court every day, why is there no news from the Lifan Yuan?
This made Zhao Hongyu a little strange.
But Zhao Hongyu was too lazy to think deeply about the real reason. After all, the time he lived here in the capital of Ming Dynasty was the happiest, most leisurely and comfortable time for him.
Since the imperial court has no intention of summoning them yet, he is happy to use this time to have fun or cultivate himself.
But everything has a limit, and the court cannot always treat them like this without restrictions.
¡°And Zhao Hongyu can only relax for a period of time, and it is impossible to relax forever.
He still has a heavy burden on him, he also has a huge empire, and there are many things to deal with.
Although he is basically the hands-off shopkeeper, Zhang Tie and the others will not deal with many major issues carelessly, and must let him make the decision.
And his roots are also on the shores of America, and he cannot stay in the East for a lifetime.
¡°Besides, this trip to the East is just to open up a sea route from the Americas to the East, and also to immigrate from the East to the Americas.
There is such an important thing about him.
The prince who was asked smiled bitterly: "There is no news from the Lifan Yuan yet. I have been going there every day to inquire about this matter. But the answer given by the Lifan Yuan to the villain is 'wait' for two days." Even a small person like this is very helpless."
Speaking of this matter, Master Wang also felt that the court was very outrageous.
"Forget it, you don't have to worry about anything. Since there is no news from the court yet, let's just continue to wait. I don't think the court can leave us all hanging here forever, are you right?", Zhao Hongyu He lay down on the recliner again, and then said to Mrs. Wang.
After hearing this, Master Wang nodded: "Your Highness is right, the court cannot be indifferent to us forever. We will have to be summoned sooner or later, but I think this matter may take some time. After all, the court is now more concerned about the issues in Liaodong, and the fact that the Jurchen cavalry may rush through Liaodong and attack the city."
"You think that if these Jurchens really come to the outskirts of the capital, can the huge capital be able to withstand it?"
Zhao Hongyu, who was lying there with his eyes narrowed, asked.
After thinking for a while, Master Wang replied: "If it is true as the rumors in the city say, the Jurchens will send their troops to the capital in the near future, I can't imagine whether the capital can be defended." . But there are about 100,000 defenders inside and outside the capital, and with the millions of people in the capital, it should be possible to deal with the Jurchens."
Zhao Hongyu shook his head noncommittally.
"It is estimated that someone will come to help the king. Even if the Jurchens come outside the capital, how many troops will they have?" Zhao Hongyu's mind was filled with historical developments in another time and space.
In another time and space, the Jurchens did have such an incident where they came to the capital of the Ming Dynasty. It was also this time that allowed the Jurchens to see the true strength and weakness of the Ming Dynasty.
In the history of another time and space, the strength of the army that originally came to King Qin far exceeded the strength of the Jurchens.
However, due to various reasons, these Ming army soldiers and horses were not well integrated and did not have a unified command and deployment. Therefore, they had no way to deal with the Jurchens and were even fighting. Many men and horses were lost.
At the same time, there are some general military officers who are still playing tricks at this critical moment and betraying some people on the battlefield who they usually have trouble dealing with.
When the other side was fighting the Jurchens, they, as friendly forces, did not go to the rescue according to the deployment, but instead retreated without authorization. This resulted in large numbers of Ming troops dying in this senseless internal fighting.
If they can unite as one, the Jurchens will not be a piece of cake at all.
Zhao Hongyu is thinking about another time and spaceAfter these things that happened, he felt that if something like this happened to the Ming Dynasty in this era, the capital would be able to defend it, but it would breed the Jurchens' ambitions.
"Your Highness, you were right when you thought about it earlier. We did not buy a house outside the city but built it in the city. Otherwise, we would be in trouble now."
Mrs. Wang thought that His Highness was thinking about things in Liaodong, so he continued talking.
"Your Highness, you don't know that the landowners and businessmen outside the city have all fled their mansions one after another and have all hid in the capital. If we had purchased the mansions outside the city at that time, we would have to do the same now. I have a headache."
Hearing what Mrs. Wang said, Zhao Hongyu felt secretly proud.
Of course, it was impossible for him to tell Mrs. Wang that he had already considered such a thing, so he did not buy property outside the city.
"You don't have to worry about these things. You'd better ask more about when the court will receive us. Of course, you also need to ask more about the news about Liaodong. You also need to visit the housekeeper of the Minister of War. ah."
Zhao Hongyu was lying on the recliner, holding a small copper heater, squinting his eyes and said to Mrs. Wang.
Mrs. Wang nodded understandingly. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
