After the heavy rain, a trace of pure blue sky is revealed in the dense dark clouds, and the sunlight shines through this gap, as if it were auspicious from the sky. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Qian Dafu looked up at the sky and said, "Your Majesty, it looks like it's going to be sunny this day, but you can go out, and the old slave is called Zhao Long and Zhao Hu." ”

Xiao Ming nodded when he heard this, he also went back to change into civilian clothes at this time, for him, he still didn't want to go outside with great fanfare, it was too eye-catching to go out in a dragon robe.

And when he was in Qingzhou, he was used to visiting the city and outside the city from time to time, and it was very uncomfortable to stay in Xingyuan every day.

When he returned to the dormitory, he took a look at Fei Yue'er by the way, this girl was very sleepy now, and the movement when he changed clothes did not wake her up.

Stopping Xiaohuan from waking up Fei Yue'er, Xiao Ming went out alone and went to the south of the city under the protection of the guards.

For Xiao Ming, the ideal capital is of course Youzhou, but now for him, Youzhou is still suitable as the capital for the time being, after all, the current Youzhou is poor and white, and the infrastructure of the city is very poor.

According to Pang Yukun's words, it is said to be a state, but in fact, it is not even as good as a county in Qingzhou.

So after thinking about it again, Xiao Ming is still ready to take Qingzhou as Kyoto, and wait until Youzhou develops before considering moving the capital, but this time is estimated to be about twenty or thirty years.

"Your Majesty, it's lively outside, but our Qingzhou is getting more and more lively." Qian Dafu smiled, which made his already small eyes become a slit.

Zhao Long said: "The people who came are all businessmen and wealthy families, they are very shrewd, and they know that the emperor is invincible, and this Qingzhou is as stable as Mount Tai, and there will be no war." ”

"Not only merchants and wealthy families, but there are also more displaced people outside the city during this time, and the government has set up a lot of soup kitchens outside the city." Zhao Hu added.

Compared with before, now the two of them are more and more energetic, after all, now the two of them no longer talk about the palace guards, but have become the imperial guards, which can envy many soldiers of the Qingzhou Army, many people were unwilling to be this idle in the past.

Xiao Ming is now a bit like a person who squatted in the detention center for half a year and then released him, and since he ascended the throne, he has found that his freedom of movement is far less than before.

The daily itinerary is basically the council hall, the study, and the dormitory, and the big and small things in Qingzhou City are reflected to him by the mouths of officials, and he also conveys his will to the outside through Qian Dafu.

Suddenly, he suddenly turned into a canary in a cage, and Xiao Ming had an instinctive vigilance against this closed environment.

Familiar with history books, he knew very well that the emperors of the past dynasties were confused by the powerful ministers and the eunuchs around him, because everything he knew came from the mouths of others.

He can only listen to what others say, so he will naturally get a lot of untrue and powerful information.

However, Xiao Ming is also prepared for this situation, this is the secret guard, this is his eyes outside.

It's just that the secret guards also have their own limitations, in this era when transportation is basically on walking, and orders are basically on roaring, most of the limited secret guards are used to monitor important people, and basically the lives of ordinary people cannot be reported in time.

Based on this, he has been thinking about ways to obtain real information for the past two days, and he has been thinking that only by allowing the newspaper to achieve impartial reporting can solve this problem.

Just as Niu Ben was worried that Xiao Ming would make the Hao clan gain power, it is now obvious that every official and general has his own ideas and considerations.

With regard to the army, he can only consider nationalizing the army.

Of course, the nationalization of the armed forces is only a false proposition, and for him, the essence of the nationalization of the armed forces is the royal language of the armed forces, and it is necessary to ensure their absolute leadership over the armed forces and prevent generals from turning the armed forces into their own private soldiers.

After all, in the future, his army will compete with the Western powers for colonies, and he does not want his generals to occupy a colony and stand on their own.

As for officials, in addition to the two factions of the DPRK and China to supervise each other, he is also prepared to adopt a top-down supervision model.

This model is what he thinks of in the newspaper, after all, contemporary facts have proved that media disclosure has played a very good role in exposing the corruption of officials, and it is also conducive to the supervision of officials.

The only drawback is that there is only one newspaper in Qingzhou now, which will make some newspaper articles too subjective, so he plans to establish two more newspapers in Qingzhou and open two newspapers to businessmen at the same time.

In other words, there will be three official newspapers and two private newspapers in Qingzhou, so that the diversified competition will allow some hidden scandals to be unearthed.

Thinking about what to do next, the group unknowingly arrived in the south of the city, and at this time, a building complex was gradually taking shape under the labor of the construction camp.

He is still more concerned about this palace, which may live in the future for twenty or thirty years, so the design of the palace is basically from his own hands, in addition to wrapping the regular buildings, there are also secret passages to escape.

Of course, the original intention of the design was to give the palace some modern atmosphere, so the construction of the palace used a lot of brick and wood structure, which is much stronger than the pure wood structure, not to mention that there is a lot of construction time left.

After all, it was much easier to build a wall with red bricks than a carpenter, and among these red bricks he also had the craftsman reserve a porcelain tube, which would be used for future wires.

It is based on this simple and quaint design that the palace was built at an unprecedented rate, and it only takes eight months to move in according to this appearance, and at the normal rate, the palace cannot be built in five or ten years.

"Your Majesty, this camp is really good, the old slave has never seen a palace built like this in such a short time."

At this time, the walls and gates of the palace have been built, and the city walls have also been dyed red, and a group of people go in along the palace gate, and the front is a step, and the steps lead from the bottom to the front of the Zhengda Guangming Hall.

This Zhengda Guangming Hall is the place where the palace discusses politics, and the reason why it is named Zhengda Guangming is also to keep the officials alert.

Compared with the luxurious palace in Chang'an, Xiao Ming has simple requirements for his palace, so he didn't ask for anything like white jade steps, and used anything that could be made from local materials.

This bypassing the Zhengda Guangming Hall is where the concubines lived, each with a separate small courtyard, except that on the right side of the palace is the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which is the place of the eunuchs, and on the left is the East Palace.

Overall, the layout of his palace is somewhat similar to that of Chang'an's palace, but there are also differences, which is the boiler water tower that stands in the palace.

And when Xiao Ming was looking at his future palace, a great change that swept through the Yan Kingdom quietly happened.
