Chapter 440 is to move the capital

……

In the imperial study room.

While waiting for the eunuch Wang Ji to find Zhao Zheng and King Yan Zhu Li, Prince Zhu Biao also took a short rest.

However, this rest was not a traditional rest, because he just asked other chamberlains to take the map from the hanging place and place it on the large desk in the side room of the imperial study. They also sat and continued to look at the map.

despair! despair!

squeak~

"Prince, Prince Yan and Minister Zhao are here."

Wang Ji finally brought the two people that Prince Zhu Biao needed and opened the door to the imperial study. Prince Zhu Biao immediately returned to his normal look from deep contemplation and exhaustion.

"Come in! No need to bow!"

"Thank you, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Thank you, Prince!"

Outside the door, Zhao Zheng and Yan Wang Zhu Li looked at each other with different thoughts in their hearts before they stepped in together.

What is the purpose of eldest brother looking for me?

Could it be that he is the only one who has not yet led his troops and has been staying in the capital, so he plans to speed up today and directly give him money and supplies to send himself out?

But that's not right. If that's the case, then why did Zhao Zheng come here again today?

Could it be that he discovered the close connection between me and the Zhao family?

The military advisor said that the closer I am in contact with the Zhao family and the less I hide it, the less it is a bad thing and the better it will be for me to go east.

So by calling both of us here today, is it a showdown?

No, probably not.

King Zhu Li of Yan thanked him for the gift, his thoughts were racing.

As for Zhao Zheng, on the way here, he already knew from the eunuch Wang Ji that Prince Zhu Biao had been silent in front of the map.

I already had some guesses in my mind.

After entering the door, he saw that Prince Zhu Biao was still staring at the map, and he became more certain about his guess.

"You all get out!"

Prince Zhu Biao raised his head, saw the two men and forced a smile, then waved them to stand next to him.

Then he waved to Wang Ji and other chamberlains in the room, motioning them all to get out. This was to show that he wanted to have some intimate words with the two of them.

Wang Ji and his group of servants were naturally sensible and left the room.

When they are here, the three of them must behave properly.

As for Jiang Xian, who has been staying in a dark corner, no one cares, and no one makes a special comment to break this basic tacit understanding.

"Fourth brother, Zhao Aiqing! Today, I am here to see you for a big matter. However, I cannot discuss this matter with other senior ministers, so please don't hide your secrets."

As he spoke, Prince Zhu Biao stood up, looked at the two of them with a smile, and placed several small teacups at several points on the map in front of him.

"Brother, what are you..."

Seeing several tea cups being placed one after another at Yingtian Mansion, his fiefdom capital, and the old ancient capital Xijing, King Yan Zhu Yue naturally realized why Prince Zhu Biao found the two of them today.

This is planning to move the capital.

Also, after the North was recovered, such remarks in the court actually started to become noisy. After all, although Yingtian Mansion is in a good location and is richer than in the north, its background is still shallow.

When it comes to wealth, if you go south to the south of the Yangtze River, there will be more wealth there.

In terms of strategic location, Yingtian Mansion is even worse than Dadu and Xijing.

It was only because of problems such as the lack of control over the north that this matter was shelved until today.

"Yes, move the capital."

"My father also overdid it before leaving the capital. Before he abdicates, it is best to settle the matter of the new capital."

"But it's hard to choose."

Prince Zhu Biao looked at the teacups on the map. He, who was always calm and humble, frowned like his father, Lao Zhu.

For the capital of the country, foundation is a must.

And what is the foundation?

Strategic location, economic and cultural are all indispensable.

But what worries Prince Zhu Biao is not which position to choose.

It’s about how to balance all parties.

He was never worried about whether he could suppress it, and neither was Lao Zhu, but whether it would cause trouble was the key.

Take the current situation in the court as an example. Most of the powerful people are from Huaixi.

Now it is true that they are attacking each other and competing for each other's interests.

But what happens once the capital changes? What happens once we move away from Huaixi?

It is foreseeable that once the capital is no longer Yingtian Mansion, these courtiers in the court who are from Huaixi or have a close relationship with Huaixi will immediately become the largest party, the Huaixi Party.

They will definitely unite immediately to prevent others from entering the court.

This is why Lao Zhu planned to settle this matter before he abdicated.

Because Lao Zhu's plan is that if these people are disobedient by then, he will use his old method to directly and violently eliminate them for Prince Zhu Biao.

With the style of Prince Zhu Biao, he naturally does not want to cause such a bloody disaster again if it is not necessary.

So he is troubled.

The fourth child, Zhu Yue, has great perseverance.

The head of the Zhao family also has great perseverance.

Prince Zhu Biao knew that if he wanted to find the best answer, it would definitely be the best decision to take advantage of the two of them.

"So I would like to ask the fourth child what you and Zhao Aiqing think."

I see……

Naturally, it was impossible to remain indifferent to the trust that King Zhu Yue of Yan had in his eldest brother and that Prince Zhu Biao had in him.

"Brother, I am willing to dedicate most of my life to you!"

"After being built by the emperor's younger brother over the years, Dadu itself is absolutely indestructible. Around Dadu, official roads are also extending in all directions."

"To the east, there is the granary of Liaodong! To the north, there are endless mineral deposits! To the west, there is an excellent place for raising livestock and raising troops! To the south, when the Cross Iron Curtain is built, there will be no congestion in the south of the Yangtze River."

King Yan Zhu Yue has absolute confidence in all aspects of the fiefdom that he has worked hard to manage for more than ten years.

At this moment, he exposed all the accumulation he had accumulated over the years, and he didn't feel any heartache at all.

After all, everyone in this room knows more or less what his future plans are, so they just have to tell the truth.

"Fourth, most of this is the result of your hard work for more than ten years. What does this mean to my elder brother..."

Faced with this gift from his fourth brother, Prince Zhu Biao said that he was not moved, but that was a lie.

After all, according to Zhu Yue's description, moving from Yingtian Mansion to Dadu basically meant enjoying the ready-made goods, and there was no way he could lie to himself.

And what does it mean to enjoy ready-made products?

Save money!

Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, what Prince Zhu Biao did was basically to stabilize the rear for Emperor Zhu Chongba.

No one understands the importance of logistics better than him.

At present, the Sun and Moon Dynasty is indeed many times richer than before.

But the corresponding expenses have doubled.

Every day I open my eyes or close my eyes, I am asked for money everywhere.

Prince Zhu Biao felt that in addition to his love and trust in himself, the reason why his father handed over the power of supervising the country to him was because of money.

Can save a little is a little ah.
