While waiting for the two of them to come, Zhu Youxiao walked back to the imperial desk, opened a memorial and watched quietly.

The first part of this is the famine in a certain place in Henan last month.

This is the most common thing now. Now, every month, Zhu Youxiao receives famine or disaster reports in various places, and there are 70 to 80 copies.

However, the timeline of the end of the third year of the Apocalypse was still early, and most of the famines in various places were limited to counties, and no major famine swept across the province had occurred.

By that time, there were hungry people everywhere.

"Transfer some of the first batch of sweet potatoes in Jifu this year. Anyway, this thing cannot be stored for too long. In the future, if there is a famine in various places, the first thing to do is to transport the sweet potatoes, and the second is the silver grain for disaster relief."

Wang Chaofu wondered how His Majesty knew that sweet potatoes could not be stored for too long, but he didn't ask, just nodded quietly and said he would write down.

Zhu Youxiao didn't say anything, so he opened the second book.

The second book talks about a happy event, which was jointly reported by Liaodong Governor Hong Chengchou and Liaodong General Xiong Tingbi, saying that it was reported by the siege cavalry that Nurhaci seemed to have relapsed after the last battle and stayed in a place called Wen Nuan Town all day long.

Obviously, the slave chief was resting there.

The memorial also mentioned that Mao Wenlong, who had made great achievements in Hettuala not long ago, was leading all the generals to discuss battle strategies for days, and seemed to want to make some new moves.

Before he could report the report, Zhu Youxiao naturally wouldn't ask in a hurry.

Although Mao Wenlong had many problems, it would be beneficial to keep him on Pidao in the overall strategic situation. Moreover, if the Dongjiang Army did not have the help of the court, it would be in a difficult situation.

The memorial also said that the current situation in Liaodong is very good.

With the cooperation of Duoyan, Fuyu and Taining guards, the Liaodong governor Xiong Tingbi was planning to completely regain the lost territory in Liaodong by next year.

It seems that his idea of ​​building Hong Chengchou to control the inner world and Xiong Tingbi's battle has come true and is working.

Although Hong Chengchou couldn't stand Xiong Tingbi's bad temper, one of the two stayed in Liaoyang and the other moved to Haizhou? He was basically out of sight.

They are all people with a big picture view? They won’t stumbling at critical moments.

As the governor of Liaodong, Hong Chengchou was much stronger than Yuan Yingtai before. On the one hand, he recruited exiles and was relocated to the first batch of Central Plains refugees who left the customs, including about 120,000.

Zhu Youxiao closed the memorial? Thinking about it quietly.

To be honest, the number of people who came out of seclusion was beyond Zhu Youxiao's expectations.

It seems that people of this era? There are indeed very few people who are willing to take their families out to live a new life, not to mention that most people are afraid of talking about the United Kingdom.

One hundred and twenty thousand people are better than nothing.

As for other refugees, can you issue some new policies? What’s left is to let things go? There is no need to force yourself.

Only when the proportion of Han people in Liaodong increased can we cultivate military farms and stabilize the border.

Thinking of this, Zhu Youxiao smiled and was about to read the next book? But Wang Chaofu, who was standing at the door, said softly:

"Master, the young master and the old master are here."

"Please come in."

Zhu Youxiao still opened this memorial? But he didn't think about it. He glanced at the corner of his eyes and saw the two of them coming in. He casually ordered:

"You are here, please sit down."

The one who came was not the British Duke Zhang Weixian? But it was the little British Duke Zhang Shize who was over 20 years old? That is, the last British Duke who led his troops out to fight to the death when Li Chuang entered the capital in history.

This person's ability has not been seen yet, but Zhu Youxiao was not worried about his loyalty at all.

When I wanted him to manage the clan mansion, I just wanted to train him in advance.

"How are you preparing for the candidates for the cabinet?" Zhu Youxiao said this to Wei Guangwei, the second assistant to the cabinet.

This person used to be Donglin, but was regarded as a victim of political struggle by the Donglin Party. Later, he defected to Wei Zhongxian and called him "Father Wei", and was called a hard-core eunuch.

But recently Wei Guangwei was very tactful. He gradually moved away from Wei Zhongxian and could no longer hear the kind name "Father Wei".

The Ministry of Justice reported that Wei Guangwei is now respectful to Wei Zhongxian in private and keeps some distance.

It is precisely because of this that Zhu Youxiao planned to give Wei Guangwei a chance.

Zhu Youxiao actually didn't plan to use the cabinet's supplementary list directly because he had someone else in mind, mainly because he wanted to see what the future prime minister thought.

Wei Guangwei also realized the importance of this to his future life, and respectfully presented a memorial and said:

"I originally planned to add six cabinet ministers to the cabinet. This is a list. Please read the emperor."

Zhu Youxiao didn't even look at it, but he was still on the imperial desk, but got up and moved for a while, and said with a smile: "I have been here for a long time, so I will go out for a walk."

The two of them dared not say anything, but just followed behind in silence.

At this time, even the imperial garden in the palace does not have the feeling of being like a rosy person, but because the internal supervisors are taking good care of themselves, they always feel refreshed and comfortable when walking inside.

One king and two ministers walked about a hundred meters and came to a small pavilion. As soon as Zhu Youxiao sat down, a palace servant with him came to imperial tea.

At this time, Wei Guangwei, who had been observing his words and expressions for a long time, suddenly spoke:

"There were two ministers in the old days. Except for the ministers, the king was mostly a nominee in Jin. He was in Nanjing for many years and did not work in the cabinet. Now, many government affairs in the cabinet are controlled by the ministers, and the ministers are afraid."

Looking up, he found that the emperor was looking at the flowers and plants around him casually. Wei Guangwei felt relieved and continued:

"According to the previous regulations, there is one more person. However, this dynasty has its own practices, and Your Majesty has His Majesty's holy decision. I think it's better to add seven people."

Zhu You looked very leisurely, eating snacks and drinking tribute tea, but not listening.

But in fact, he heard every word Wei Guangwei said in his heart.

It was not until the last sentence that Zhu Youxiao got up and did not answer anything. He just kept joking at Zhang Shize who couldn't get in.

Since Gu Bingqian resigned and Han Yu returned to the throne, the cabinet was only Wei Guangwei who joined the cabinet last year. For him, this was a time of great popularity, but also an extremely dangerous time.

The fate of Fang Congzhe alone in the late Wanli period is still vivid in my mind. Those powerful ministers in the cabinet, such as Zhang Juzheng, basically would not have any good fate.

Wei Guangwei could hear rumors that he would definitely be the next chief minister every day, which made him feel uncomfortable in this position!

It is fake to say that you don’t want to be the chief minister of the cabinet.

If you become the chief minister of the cabinet, you will be able to leave your name in history. This is the pinnacle of being a minister. Before the Ming Dynasty, this is the prime minister of the current dynasty!

But at the same time, countless eyes stared at this position, sour and smelly. They didn't have the ability to come up, so they tried their best to pull you down with their own abilities, ruining you!

In this position, opportunities and risks coexist. If you retreat at this time, can you still call a man? This will be in vain!

When he returned to the gate of Maoqin Palace, Zhu Youxiao walked up two stone steps and suddenly turned around and said:

"The most urgent task of the court is to manage Liaodong after it is recovered. You should go back and think about it and write a book for me to present it."
Chapter completed!
