Chengdu, the main hall of the general town government.

Zhu Youxiao overturned the table with one hand, and the documents piled up on it were swept away, which made everyone panic and knelt down one after another.

Wang Chaofu stood outside the hall holding the document. He was thinking quickly in his mind, and a sudden realization gradually emerged on his face. The emperor's sudden anger made him ring in his heart.

When you are by the Emperor, you must always remember to be careful in your words and actions.

In the hall, several Jinyiwei who came to report the matter, and the officials were all hundreds of households in the Fufu Department.

I don't know what they said, which made the emperor so angry.

Sichuan General Hou Liangzhu was also nervous, thinking to himself whether His Majesty knew that he had demolished the bell tower of Yongxiang Temple and some of the houses were converted into the city.

There is indeed no way to do this. The rebels were building high platforms outside the city. If they did not do this and asked them to seize the commanding heights, Chengdu would be in danger.

After a moment of confusion, Hou Liangzhu finally couldn't help but speak and said:

"Dadfather-in-law, do you want me to apologize to His Majesty-"

Wang Chaofu was thinking about whether to go in at this time. When he heard this, he was stunned at first, then laughed out loud, and turned around and asked:

"What crime should General Hou ask for?"

"I led my troops to demolish the temple and houses without authorization. Your Majesty is already angry with me..." Hou Liangzhu was worried, "Father-in-law, you will say a few good words to me later!"

"It was for this."

Wang Chaofu helped his forehead and said, "Your Majesty, this is because the news from the capital is not to be upset with you. General Hou can rest assured."

"Oh—" Hou Liangzhu calmed down, and after a moment, he still asked: "What news is coming from Beijing?"

"It's about promoting sweet potatoes in the imperial village, so don't ask too much."

As the two were talking, they heard the two Jinyiwei households in the hall shouting to obey the order, then turned around and left the main hall, and headed north, as if they had returned to Beijing with urgent orders.

Wang Chaofu lowered his head and looked at the document wrapped in Huang Ling in his hand. After thinking for a while, he slowly retreated and no longer planned to go in.

Hou Liangzhu didn't know what he was thinking, so he was a little anxious and came up and said, "Don't we go in and ask?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Chaofu glanced at him.

This guy is a good guy in war. He can protect Chengdu under the siege of a large number of rebels and even take the initiative to attack. But why don’t you understand this?

He sighed and explained:

"Now the emperor is angry, these documents are not a good thing. If you are unhappy, we should find someone else to do it."

"It's reasonable, it's reasonable..." Hou Liangzhu nodded repeatedly and followed behind him.

The news just now is still good things ahead.

The promotion of sweet potatoes in the imperial farm was very smooth, and they were very well grown. The characteristics of high yield were obvious and were deeply loved by the people.

Logically speaking, the next step is to promote the planting in the entire imperial village of Gyeonggi. This was originally emphasized by Zhu Youxiao before leaving Beijing.

It is natural to implement it now.

But the problem lies in the fact that someone made suggestions when the capital was discussing this matter. As soon as it was implemented, it encountered a difficult problem.

When sweet potatoes were promoted and planted in a royal farm near Tongzhou, they were blocked by local royal relatives and killed people.

In this matter, the royal family stood together with civil servants who opposed the promotion.

The royal relatives are very large and the emperor himself is not in the capital. Wei Zhongxian dares not deal with it at will, and Zhang Weixian also needs to avoid suspicion.

As a result, the ministry's discussion was pending, and sweet potatoes were delayed in the implementation of the capital. When Zhu Youxiao received the news, he had already missed the summer planting date this year.

What made Zhu Youxiao angry was that the royal family caused trouble, which led to the delay of the summer seeds of sweet potatoes in the Gyeonggi. This postponement, I wonder how many people would starve to death!

They shouldn't have ended like this!

As soon as he left, there was no tiger in the mountains and the monkey was called the king. However, the royal relatives who usually acted in a low-key manner all jumped out one by one and began to take the lead in opposing the promotion of sweet potatoes.

Let the poor people not starve to death, let them resist like this?

......

The next morning, Zhu Youxiao sat up moaning.

After several months of military life, he was covered in bruises and long-term riding of horses also made the inner side of his legs a little numb.

I slept well in Chengdu. Although my body was no longer sore, Zhu Youxiao still felt pain on the inner side of his legs as soon as he walked.

"The feeling of marching and fighting is indeed much sadder than turning the brand in the harem..."

Zhu Youxiao murmured a few times, looking at the heavy armor and swords placed on the table, and suddenly understood why many emperors liked not to come out in the deep palace.

Without it, leading troops to fight is simply not the work the emperor should do!

He pulled open the curtain of the bed, and the sun shone in. In the morning light of dust, Wang Chaofu knelt on the ground and presented a cup of warm tea.

Zhu Youxiao pondered for a moment, reached out to take it, drank it silently, and the tea was turned around in his mouth several times, and then he was spit into the copper basin prepared by the eunuch.

"What's the matter?"

Zhu Youxiao took another cup of warm tea, drank it quietly, and suddenly said.

Wang Chaofu paused slightly and said respectfully:

"Report to the Emperor, the rebel general Zhang Tong and She Chongming have been taken to Chengdu. Should I meet?"

"What do I have to say to them?" Zhu Youxiao's face was not filled with joy. He put the teacup on the table, and put his armor under the service of the eunuch, saying:

"Let Hou Liangzhu cut them directly and pass them to the southwest."

Soon, the well-dressed Zhu Youxiao returned to the main hall and sat in the first place. After listening to the civil servants and generals bowing to the mountains, he said quietly:

"Zhu Xieyuan."

A civil servant with a modest appearance came out and said, "I am here."

"I give you three days to present a report to the chieftains in Sichuan who responded to the An rebellion and the chieftains who resisted the rebels with Qin Liangyu."

Zhu Xieyuan was originally the left governor of Sichuan. He was ordered to become the governor of Xichuan not long ago.

During the Battle of Chongming, he cooperated with Hou Liangzhu and Qin Liangyu to successfully contain Zhang Tong and his rebels around Chengdu, and bought time for the arrival of the personal army to calm the situation.

After he followed the order, he seemed to have something in his heart, and he lowered his eyes and sighed again after a long time.

Zhu Youxiao had just gotten up and saw that he was like this, and his feet were pausing on the ground, then sat back and asked:

"Zhu Xieyuan, I have anything to say."

"Yes." Zhu Xieyuan bowed without being vague and said bluntly: "Your Majesty really can't see it. What is the land of Sichuan and Shu under his feet?"

"The sycamore trees fall and the remains of the pond fills the pond. Is Your Majesty planning to leave like this?"

"Of course I won't leave. If you are worried about this, there is no need to!" Zhu Youxiao glanced at him and said quietly.

Zhu Xieyuan raised his head again, and saw that his eyes were red at this time, and said, "Since Your Majesty does not leave, we must rectify the southwest. If Your Majesty wants to revive the Ming Dynasty, a stable rear is indispensable!"

"Since Hongwu, the State Administration of China has implemented the strategy of changing land and returning to the land in various southwestern provinces. Until now, the results have been very little!"

"Now that the rebellion has been quelled, we should declare all sides and use force to intimidate them. Your Majesty can force the chieftains to change their territory and return them to the relocation and re-dividing the territory of chieftains for them."

"The great chieftains must be eliminated, and there will never be any major chieftains family similar to She Chongming in Sichuan in the future."

"As for the small chieftains, they can turn their places into prefectures, prefectures, and counties, and the court sends traitors to govern. If they are dissatisfied, they must also be forced to change the conquest!"

"The chieftain inherits the system from generation to generation, it is really not advisable!"
