The next afternoon, before dinner time, a Jinyiwei quickly entered the Ping'an Teahouse.

"Uncle Zhang, Captain Chen asked his subordinates to come here to report. The things he asked us to do have been done."

The young man from the Imperial Guard said respectfully.

He knew very well that the Zhang Bo in front of him was someone that even the commander-in-chief of the Jinyiwei, Jiang Li, had to give some respect to.

"This guy is quite honest. He can finalize so many places as soon as he says so."

Zhang Bo was a little surprised. You know, it had been less than twelve hours since he left yesterday, and everything had already been arranged. This was an unprecedented speed in today's society.

Facts have proved that when a person is pushed to the limit, there is nothing that cannot be done.

Zhang Bo then followed the Jinyiwei to the Jinyiwei Yamen.

In the Jinyiwei Yamen, Chen Zhi's eyes were a little dark. After all, he had been working for almost ten hours at a high intensity, especially such a brain-intensive job. It was hard for him to endure until now. It was hard for outsiders to understand the hardships.

Of course, Chen Zhi, as the one in charge of the command, was relatively better, except that he was a little anxious.

In a place that ordinary people cannot see, last night, nearly sixty brokers in the capital were forcibly pulled over and forced to confess all the places where they could trade.

All of these agents were very familiar with the capital, and together they had almost drawn up a map of the entire outer city.

When have they ever been to a place like the Jinyiwei Yamen? You have to know that ordinary people, even if they have committed a crime, are not qualified to come to the Jinyiwei prison.

Only high-ranking officials can come in here.

Under such a threat, everyone would rack their brains and try every possible way to find a location for the venue.

Just half an hour before Zhang Bo arrived at the Jinyiwei Yamen, these agents were released.

In Chen Zhi's hands, the arrangements of all the venues were already in place. At least, there was no problem with the temporary venue.

"Uncle Zhang." Chen Zhi greeted him respectfully at the gate of the Jinyiwei Yamen.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Even Uncle Zhang was somewhat surprised.

Under the leadership of Chen Zhi, they came to the lobby.

Chen Zhi did not hesitate and took out the map he had drawn.

"Uncle Zhang, please take a look. The temporary sites are in East City and South City respectively. The textile factory is located in West City."

"The people in West City are relatively concentrated, so according to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's request, it will naturally be much more convenient."

Chen Zhi pointed at the map and said.

When Zhang Bo saw Chen Zhixin doing it, he knew that this guy had really put in a lot of effort.

But Chen Zhi did not stop, but continued pointing at the map and began to talk about the address of the factory.

"At present, because the site is relatively large, and dormitories and other places need to be built at the same time, the area occupied is very large."

"The outer city of the capital is densely populated, and it is difficult to find a large place to site. The only way is to relocate the people."

"If we do this, it may have a slight impact on the reputation of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I don't think much about this aspect."

"In this case, we can only go towards the outskirts of the city. Other factories are fine, and it feels like the textile factory is the only one."

"The population of West City is far greater than other places, and the conditions for passage must also be guaranteed. So in this regard, if we need to choose a location, I have two places to consider."

As Chen Zhi spoke, he pointed at the map and introduced: "Uncle Zhang, please look, this is the first choice. It is less than ten miles away from West City. It is relatively good."

"This is the second choice. It is only three miles away from the West City. It completely meets the requirements of His Royal Highness Chang Sun. However, there are some residential buildings around it, which takes up a lot of space."

Zhang Bo looked at the marks on the map, thought for a moment, and then asked, "How many people live in these houses?"

Zhang Bo just asked casually, but Chen Zhi had obviously done his homework and replied directly: "According to statistics, there are about 7,000 people living here, but this is only the registered population. According to our actual investigation, there should be about 20,000 people."

"About 10,000 of them are from other places and usually rent and live here."

Hearing such detailed data, Zhang Bo was slightly stunned at first, then frowned and said: "Twenty thousand people, it's a bit difficult to handle."

"Okay, you have a detailed record here. I will present it to His Highness later. Regarding the textile factory, I'm afraid only His Highness can make the decision."

"Your Highness's canonization is imminent, and it will only take a few days. If there is a problem in this regard, then you and I will be guilty of a serious crime."

Hearing what Zhang Bo said, Chen Zhi nodded in agreement.

Whether it is the military parade or the enthronement ceremony, these are extremely important events for the capital or the entire Ming Dynasty. Any slight mistake will be a huge sin.

After Uncle Zhang took the booklet away, Chen Zhi heaved a long sigh of relief. His whole body couldn't help but sway a little and he felt exhausted, as if he had fought three hundred rounds in Wanhua Tower.

"This is really harmful to my health, but why do I still feel a little sleepless?"

Chen Zhi talked to himself, his current state was really strange, he wanted to sleep but didn't want to sleep at the same time.

Although he hadn't slept for more than ten hours, he felt strangely excited, especially because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince might know his aspirations and expectations for the future.

After thinking it over for a while, Chen Zhi decided to reward himself.

He did it as soon as he thought of it. Even though it was broad daylight outside, he was too lazy to care about it.

"I've never been to Wanhua Building during the day, and I don't know if they are open now."

"Forget it, never mind. It's just right that the door is not open. The girls are all here. Even if it is closed, you have to open it for me today."

"hey-hey!"

…

Zhang Bo took the booklet and headed straight towards the palace.

Whether it is Zhang Bo, Zhang San, Song Zhong, Ye Yueqing and others, they all have Zhu Ying's special order and a separate badge, which allows them to pass through the palace at any time.

After all, they are people close to me, so I should give them some preferential treatment in this regard.

Moreover, Uncle Zhang is also responsible for the intelligence of the Chamber of Commerce, so some urgent matters cannot be delayed.

At this moment, Zhu Ying was in the palace's training ground, watching the imperial guards training.

After all, they are the imperial guards, and their training time is longer than that of other guards in the capital. Moreover, these soldiers are the elite among the elite and have stronger physical fitness.

There is also a great advantage in age. Those who were older before have been excluded.

This time, Zhu Ying did not stand on the platform, but walked around the entire martial arts field and watched casually, getting closer to the soldiers.

Wherever Zhu Ying went, the soldiers there were like they were injected with chicken blood, and their bodies were boiling with heat.

In fact, as palace guards, they need to patrol frequently, and they can be seen frequently whether it is for ministers or His Majesty.

Unlike the soldiers of other garrisons, even if they saw him, they could only see him from a distance, and it was blurry.

But Zhu Ying is different.

Zhu Ying has now become a kind of belief in the hearts of the palace guards, especially the more than 20,000 people currently present, and it can even be said to be a blind worship.

The key here is the improvement of the overall morale of the entire Imperial Guard.

Better food, continuous training, and favorable retirement conditions.

Such treatment can be said to be unprecedented in the entire historical dynasty. Even though His Royal Highness Changsun does not come here often, a huge change has taken place in everyone's hearts.

Not to mention, the current palace guards have added ideological education courses, which means that like the Xuanjia Guards, they have an hour of reading and education after sunset.

These teachers were all dispatched from the Qun Ying Chamber of Commerce, and a large number of them were Zhu Ying’s disciples.

When it comes to ideological education, Zhu Ying's disciples are very familiar with it.

Moreover, the enthusiasm of the Imperial Guards was significantly higher.

Zhu Ying felt a little awkward as he walked in the ranks of the Imperial Guards. He felt the intense gazes on his body from head to toe and was a little nervous.

Here, there are more than 20,000 strong and sturdy men.

There is no thin one among them, and with the recent improvement in food and the abundant supply of meat, they have become stronger.

After taking a deep breath, Zhu Ying knew that he should say a few words.

Then he slowly walked towards the platform.

However, Zhu Ying did not go up to the platform, but stood below it.

When Zhu Ying stood up, all the soldiers fell silent and looked at His Royal Highness Chang Sun.

"I am very satisfied with your recent training. I can clearly see that none of the soldiers here are lazy and are all training hard."

"Perhaps some of you who are more informed should also know about the rewards for the military parade."

"Your coach should have already explained the contents of these rewards, so I won't go into details."

"But you must be clear in your mind that the people watching this grand parade are not just me, Your Majesty, but also all the civil and military officials."

"And this time, there will be hundreds of thousands of people watching the ceremony together."

"In addition to the first time, I have also invited all the foreign ministers who are in the capital. I want to let those foreign envoys who are subservient on the surface but secretly have evil intentions see clearly what the lion of the Ming Dynasty is like."

"Tell me, will you disappoint me?"

Zhu Ying raised his voice and asked loudly.

"No! No! No!"

Twenty thousand soldiers shouted loudly.

Zhu Ying frowned and shouted, "Why are you all acting like women? Have you never had a full meal? Your voice is so soft that I can't hear you clearly!!!"

Being provoked like this, the soldiers, who were already full of enthusiasm, could no longer bear it. They used all their strength to roar loudly: "No!!! No!!! No!!!"

This momentum rushed straight into the entire palace. If you looked into the distance, you could even see the birds in the imperial garden being startled and flew away.

Almost everyone in the palace could clearly hear the roars of the soldiers.

At this moment in the Huagai Hall, Zhu Yuanzhang was discussing with several ministers about high-yield crops and the arrangements for the grand military parade on October 1st.

This grand military parade, with the mobilization of thirty-six guards and two hundred thousand troops, and hundreds of thousands of civilians watching, can be said to be the biggest event since the founding of the Ming Dynasty.

Even the big discount promotion held by Zhuying Qunying Chamber of Commerce last time was not as grand as this.

It is now less than five days away from the first day of October. As the news spreads, the population of the capital is increasing rapidly every day, and all of them are people rushing in from other places.

This was only a ten-day advance notice. After the people living around the capital learned the news, they began to rush to the capital overnight.

This is still due to restrictions. Many people are not allowed to walk around freely. Otherwise, if the announcement was made to the world two months in advance without any restrictions, the entire capital would probably be overcrowded.

Military parades have taken place in many dynasties, but they were always held when the emperor inspected the military camp or in the imperial palace. Common people were not allowed to watch the ceremony, let alone there was no limit on the number of common people who could watch the ceremony.

If queuing was not prohibited in the outer city, there would probably be quite a few people waiting with their mattresses.

Such an opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the people loyal to the Ming Dynasty.

For a spy who has an idea in mind, he would go and see it even at the cost of his life.

In this regard, even Zhu Yuanzhang would have to pay close attention. To put it simply, on the first day of October, there would likely be 600,000 people gathering near the outer city of the imperial palace.

Any slight impact or stampede would be a disaster for the people or for the Ming Dynasty.

The Wucheng Bingmasi, the General Administration of Public Security of the Ming Dynasty, has a very important mission in this regard.

For three or four days, Zhu Yuanzhang and several ministers discussed how to make this matter pass smoothly.

Just now, when the Minister of Justice Yang Jing was describing the situation, he was interrupted by Jing Tian's roar coming from outside.

Minister of Personnel Zhan Hui's eyes lit up, and he immediately stood up, bowed and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty. The future of our Ming Dynasty is promising, the future is promising!"

After being beaten by Lan Yu, Lan Yu was punished the next day, and on the third day Zhan Hui obediently went to the morning court.

After all, the Duke of Liang had been removed from his post as the Left Commander-in-Chief of the Central Military Governor's Office and had to surrender nearly ten thousand acres of fertile land. After learning the news, Zhan Hui felt relieved.

His injuries were not serious to begin with, and he was just pretending to be injured.

Actually, Zhan Hui wanted to take this opportunity to rest for a few days. After all, he was beaten yesterday. It was a bit exaggerated to say that he would be fine the next day after lying in bed unable to get up.

Just when Zhan Hui had this thought, Liu He came to visit on behalf of His Majesty.

Zhan Hui naturally couldn't get down from the **.

Liu He brought some medicinal supplements from the palace. As a token of His Majesty's appreciation for Zhan Hui, he simply said before leaving: "During the morning court tomorrow, please don't slack off on your duties over the past two days, Minister Zhan."

Zhan Hui immediately understood the meaning of the words.

There is no mention of whether you can attend court tomorrow. You are told directly that you must attend court tomorrow, and all the work that has not been completed in the past two days must be completed tomorrow without delay.

So the next day, Zhan Hui had no choice but to go to court obediently.

Zhu Yuanzhang listened to the roars of the soldiers outside and said with a smile: "Our eldest grandson, like me, has a talent for training soldiers. Listen to his vigor and spirit. If there were any enemy troops, they would be scared to death."

After saying that, he waved at Zhan Hui and asked him to sit back.

Zhu Yuanzhang was quite satisfied with Zhan Hui's performance just now. Whenever someone praised Sun, Zhu Yuanzhang felt happier than when someone praised himself.

His eyes narrowed with a smile.

"Your Highness Changsun is a man of both military and civil skills. Although he has never led troops into battle, his ability to train soldiers is so great that I have never heard of anyone with such ability in the entire Ming Dynasty. No, I have never heard of anyone with such ability in the past and present."

"I'm afraid that soldiers trained like this can fight ten to one on the battlefield. In the past, when I read about the victory of a small number over a large number in history books, I always felt that it was unreal. Now it seems that I am ignorant."

Zhan Hui's words made the other ministers and grand secretaries present not to look at him sideways.

Good old guy, he really took advantage of the situation.

No wonder he is such a popular figure in front of His Majesty. No one can compare to him in terms of flattering the dragon.

Sure enough, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled even more happily and said, "Our eldest grandson's training of soldiers is indeed good, better than ours. If only we had the training method of our eldest grandson during the war."

"I'm afraid that our Ming Dynasty will have to establish its nation at least five years earlier, so that the people and soldiers will not have to suffer so much."

As Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, he sighed a bit.

The situation of my eldest grandson is very similar to my own, both of them started from scratch.

This is also what Zhu Yuanzhang is most satisfied with his eldest grandson. Heroes always appreciate each other.

After Zhu Yuanzhang founded the country, he felt that throughout history, there had never been an emperor born like him.

To a certain extent, I am naturally very proud and a little lonely.

The appearance of the eldest grandson just filled this loneliness.

He is my most beloved grandson, so the feeling is completely different.

The many ministers and scholars present felt somewhat unwilling to see the Minister of Personnel Zhan Hui leading the government alone, and they were all thinking in their hearts how to flatter the emperor better.

Among them, the Minister of Revenue Zhao Mian's eyes lit up, and he also bowed and said: "I heard that when His Highness Changsun was young, His Majesty and the Empress were always personally taking care of him. I wonder if this is true."

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but look at the Minister of Revenue Zhao Mian.

Good man, this guy really doesn't know how to live or die. He just mentioned the Queen in front of Your Majesty.

This is a taboo for Your Majesty.

This is the result of countless lives. Do you really think that Your Majesty can't lift the knife?

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he frowned, his face turned cold, and he looked at Zhao Mian.
