All the capable officials transferred from other places by the Ministry of Personnel have been in place. After all these officials have arrived, Zhu Yunwen first summoned them all together and gave them a speech and a pep talk.
He set some goals for them and said some inspiring words, which greatly motivated and motivated the group of officials.
Only then did Zhu Yunwen feel relieved enough to leave the southwest region.
Along the way, there was no longer a rush to get there. And this time, there were far fewer people returning.
Two hundred thousand troops, temporarily led by Lan Yu and Feng Sheng, remained in the southwest region.
After all, the southwest region had just been unified, and it was necessary to keep troops stationed there and leave capable generals to continue suppressing the rebellion.
So on the way back, Zhu Yunwen's carriage contained only him and Zhao Qingzhu, while outside there were ten Imperial Guard commanders on horseback.
These commanders of the Embroidered Uniform Guard have now become Zhu Yunwen's personal guards.
Driving on the smooth cement road, Zhu Yunwen's mood inexplicably improved a lot.
On his way back this time, he noticed that there were many more pedestrians and horse-drawn carriages on the cement road than when he had visited the southwest region before.
It seems that this thing has made the people realize its benefits, and they all want to come and walk on this cement road.
Just as Zhu Yunwen was admiring his masterpiece along the way with great satisfaction.
Suddenly, a member of the Imperial Guard rode swiftly from a distance, dismounted, and knelt before Zhu Yunwen's carriage, saying:
"Your Highness, news has arrived from the capital!"
As he spoke, he handed over an envelope.
Zhao Qingzhu stepped forward, took the envelope, and handed it to Zhu Yuntong in the carriage.
Zhu Yunwen opened the letter and glanced at it; it was written by Zhu Yuanzhang himself.
The letter contained little information, but after reading it, Zhu Yunwen frowned slightly.
Zhao Qingzhu quickly asked:
"Your Highness, has something happened?"
Zhu Yunwen shook his head slightly and said:
"It's nothing major. My grandfather said that an island nation in the East China Sea, called Dongdao, sent a delegation, along with a so-called princess and a prince, to our Great Ming. They want to meet the Emperor and the Crown Prince."
Zhao Qingzhu asked in confusion:
"Eastern island nation?"
Zhu Yunwen nodded and said:
"It's Japan..."
Zhao Qingzhu: "Little Sun what?"
Zhu Yunwen: "That little island nation to the east where life isn't so great..."
Zhao Qingzhu suddenly realized and said:
"Oh, the island nation of Japan. What are they doing in our Great Ming? Are they here to learn?"
Zhu Yunwen sneered and said:
“Learn? This small island nation did indeed love to learn from us during our Tang Dynasty, and they were very humble. Back then, we learned everything they should and shouldn't have learned.”
Now, if someone comes to my Great Ming, they probably won't have the same humble attitude as before. This time, it's probably not a good thing.
