Chapter 862: Take the Train

"Taishi, this is the list of honorable heroes who have recently received hope to go overseas to build a country, please take a look at it."

Liu Chun took the list from Yang Shiqi's hand, he glanced at it slightly, there were more than seventy, which seemed to be a lot, but Liu Chun knew that there were more than sixty of them who were his people, and among the rest of the people, he also saw two very familiar names, one was Lan Yong, and the other was Ping'an.

In other words, most of the nobles, especially the heroes of the martyrdom, are still resisting the change.

"Lord Yang, what do you think?" Liu Chun said in a cold voice.

Yang Shiqi was very embarrassed, "Taishi, the common people often say that they would rather be a peace dog than a chaotic person." It is difficult to expand overseas. I'm very happy to have so many people taking the initiative to cooperate, and I think there will be more in the future, right? Yang Shiqi peeked at Liu Chun, and saw that he had a solemn face, Yang Shiqi disagreed, and felt that there were already a lot of people, but it was a little strange, why did these people choose the Americas, I really don't understand?

Liu Chun obviously couldn't tell Yang Shiqi that most of these people were his people. No matter in any country or in any era, there are only a few who are willing to take the risk of pioneering, and most people are content with the status quo and refuse to change.

The more difficult it is, the more courageous it is.

Tell everyone that times have changed!

Everything they knew in the past had become a thing of the past, and they were going to be swept away in the garbage...... Yoo Chun paced back and forth on the ground with his hands behind his back, and finally he stopped.

"Master Yang, I am ready to leave for Jiangnan to practice for these warriors who are willing to go overseas to open up. During my absence from the capital, you will preside over the affairs of the Cabinet. ”

Yang Shiqi was stunned for a moment, "Taishi, now that state affairs are so busy, how can you leave so easily?" And this is a long way to go to Jiangnan, I am afraid that it will take two or three months to go back and forth, I am worried that something will happen! ”

Liu Chun smiled indifferently and was full of confidence, "It won't take that long, at most half a month, I will return." ”

"Half a month?" Yang Shiqi was shocked, and hurriedly said with concern: "Although the Taishi is in his prime, the Spring and Autumn Period is prosperous and his body is strong, but the long journey is very hard, and the Taishi still has to take care of his body!" ”

Liu Chun laughed, "Master Yang, you're too worried, I'm going to lie down, and it won't be too hard." ”

Yang Shiqi frowned, and after a while, he suddenly said, "Taishi, did you mean that the train was repaired?" ”

Liu Chun corrected: "It's the railway!" ”

Yang Shiqi hurriedly laughed and said, "Yes, yes, it was the lower official who said it wrong...... However, was the railroad really repaired so quickly? Now between the two capitals, it can be unimpeded? ”

Liu Chun shook his head, "Of course not, just like the Yellow River, the Yangtze River, and even the Huai River, they can't be directly passed, and they need to be ferried." But even so, it's much better than before, I plan to pass in sections first, experience it once, and let those people open their eyes and see the power of Da Ming! Daming's speed! ”

Yang Shiqi thought for a while, immediately nodded, and praised: "Taishi's move is really powerful, the train is rolling forward, it is like the trend of the times, and those who are willing to follow the court to change the law can make a lot of money." Confronting the imperial court, that is, using the mantis arm as a car, killing yourself! Wonderful, wonderful! ”

Yang Shiqi thought for a while, and said: "Taishi, do you think this is okay, can you ask Your Majesty to also go south to Yingtian, go to worship the first emperor, and play this feat to Taizu, so that his old man will be happy!" ”

Liu Chun groaned, "If even Your Majesty goes south, I'm afraid that I will have to make a big move, and the cost will be amazing!" ”

Yang Shiqi didn't hesitate and laughed: "It's worth spending money for this!" Definitely worth it! He muttered again: "It's a pity that the lower officials can't witness it in person, so they can only wish the Taishi a smooth journey in advance." ”

Liu Chun wanted to go south by himself, and Yang Shiqi proposed to let Zhu Di follow.

As a result, the news reached Zhu Di's ears, and His Majesty the Emperor was immediately angry, such a fun thing, how can it be enjoyed alone, it should be killed!

"Not only do I want to go, but I also want all the civil and military ministers to follow, and I want to cruise Jiangnan!"

Zhu Dixing hurriedly made a suggestion, and this time he did not let the cabinet be responsible, but gave an order to the crown prince Zhu Gaochi, asking him to be responsible for drawing up the list of personnel and submitting the expenses truthfully.

Zhu Gaochi received his father's order and looked embarrassed.

"Father, the railway is still in trial operation, and it is difficult to guarantee that it is foolproof. Master went to see it first, also to avoid accidents, when everything is smooth, it is not too late for my father to set off to the south, you can't be so willful! ”

was taught a lesson by his son, and Zhu Di's eyes stood up.

"Fool, you know what! In a few days, it will be the big day of my father's ten years on the throne! Originally, my father planned to worship the first emperor in the Taimiao...... Now that the railroad has been repaired, I just went south to tell the Emperor how much I had accomplished in the past ten years! Zhu Di couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart and shook his fist vigorously.

"I have decided to divide the world, and I want to be the true Son of Heaven...... No, it's not the Son of Heaven, it's the real emperor, the emperor of all, it's the emperor of men! All men, regardless of color or race, are my people, and they are prostrate at my feet......"

Zhu Di yelled, roared, Zhu Gaochi blushed, Dad, let's be normal, if you have a fever, you have to isolate and treat the disease, calm down for half a month, and then come out, you are a good man again.

You're like this all the time, and you're obviously a problem person!

Zhu Di suddenly saw his son's disdain, he snorted, rushed over, and grabbed Zhu Gaochi with his hand.

"You're crazy to be a father, aren't you? Tell you, no! Father is very sober! It's really hard, it's not easy to do. But I will write it into the ancestral teachings! Listen to me, all the descendants of the Zhu family must work hard to pursue it, especially you, cheer me up! If you dare to disobey my will, you will be deposed as the prince! No one can save you! ”

Zhu Gaochi enjoyed a thorough saliva shower, don't say anything, hurry up and go back to wash your face!

Zhu Laosi has set his goal.

A medium-sized event instantly promoted Zhu Di to the top.

All the clans, civil and military, must follow him south.

According to past experience, such a large-scale operation requires at least 100,000 people.

But this time it was completely different, Zhu Di didn't have the slightest intention of bringing more people and making a big move.

Is it possible to be able to drive lightly? This is also too inconsistent with the weather of the Son of Heaven.

"Your Majesty, the minister has arranged three special trains this time. The first train was the crown prince and the king of Han, as well as the scholar Jin Youzi, who acted as the vanguard, accompanied by the guards and officials, and were responsible for arranging the greeting. The second column is His Majesty's royal car, and the third column is the accompanying civil and military nobles. ”

Zhu Di listened to Liu Chun's arrangement, and couldn't help but say: "This train has almost ten carriages, right?" ”

Liu Chun nodded, "Your Majesty's royal train is thirteen sections. ”

When Zhu Di heard this, he became angry and reproached: "Thirteen cars, just pretend to be a person, what do you want?" ”

Liu Chun said helplessly: "Your Majesty, it's no wonder that the ministers are here, the Son of Heaven must have a full set of honor guards when he goes on patrol, otherwise how can he highlight the royal majesty?" There is no way to do it. ”

Zhu Di pondered for a moment and asked rhetorically: "You just said that these honor guards are to highlight the royal prestige, but why have you forgotten that this southern tour is the best way to reflect the majesty?" ”

Liu Chun was so keen, he said slowly: "Your Majesty doesn't mean to bring more personnel, right?" ”

"That's right!"

Zhu Di stroked his palms and laughed, or Liu Chun understood his thoughts.

In the past, when the Son of Heaven and his courtiers traveled, they had to bring all kinds of honor props...... The purpose is also very simple, that is, to let ordinary people see how magnificent and rich my heavenly family is, don't you envy and awe?

However, with the successful construction of the railway, this thing came from north to south, roaring, and the magnificence of the Son of Heaven was all at once.

And the more people you bring, the more earth-shattering it becomes.

Of course, Liu Chun understands this truth, but he can give up the Son of Heaven's honor guard, and Zhu Di must have the final say in this matter.

With the permission of the Son of Heaven, Liu Chun was finally able to let go of his hands and feet.

Soon, one invitation after another was sent to the courtiers and nobles, not only inviting them to go south, but even their families could follow.

"Are you interested in coming south with me?"

Chang Mao shook the invitation in his hand at his wife.

Her Royal Highness, a princess from the far west, has been constantly "devastated" since she arrived in the Ming Dynasty, with mountains of weapons arsenals, palaces larger than their fiefdoms, extremely rich food, and colorful satin cloths...... Even the subordinates of the Guogong Mansion are better dressed than the nobles of Europe.

The gap is just too big.

"When I find my father, I will buy a manor in Daming and let him come and live there, he will definitely think that this is heaven." Her Royal Highness the Princess smiled and accepted the invitation, she could already know some Chinese characters.

"Gangnam? Is it good here? What about the capital city? ”

Chang Mao smiled: "It's hard to say, but I can only say that in Jiangnan, there are no less than five cities with a population of more than one million!" ”

"What?"

Her Royal Highness was shocked, a city has a million people, which is simply more than one of their countries!

It's also magical!

"Go, of course I'll go!" The princess excitedly added, "My riding skills are very good, you can rest assured." ”

Chang Mao smiled, "I don't need riding skills this time." ”

"Not really? Do you want to walk? "This can stump Her Royal Highness the princess, she is not afraid of hard work, but what to do with the child, it is really distressing!

Finally came to the day of departure, Zheng Guogong Changmao took his family and left the mansion and went directly to the station, where he happened to meet Liang Guogong Lanyu on the way.

"Uncle, do you want to go with you?"

Lan Yu grabbed his beard and laughed, "Originally, I didn't want to go, but Your Majesty specially gave me a decree and prepared a special sleeper, no way, I can't go!" ”

Lan Yu was reluctant on his lips, but his eyes were full of joy, and he also wanted to go to Yingtian to pay tribute to his sister and brother-in-law...... My baby son-in-law has done another great thing!

Lan Yu was in a good mood, and smiled at the little guy: "Come, let your uncle and grandfather hold it, let's go see your grandfather!" ”
