In the winter of the 19th year of Kaiming, the southern palace of Guanghu Provincial Administration.

"Zhongba, what are you thinking about? You've been frowning all day, and now you don't even want to eat?"

After Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma set out from Yingtian, they stayed the longest at Guanghu Provincial Administration.

But if you count carefully, they have actually toured half of the non-border provinces, and the remaining half of the journey is to the southeast towards Suzhou and Hangzhou.

It was indeed because Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang was not reassured by the conditions of the marginal governor in all aspects. After all, this tour was with his sister.

In addition, it was too far away, and he didn't want to see the unnecessary waste of financial and material resources.

As for why he was frowning so hard that he couldn't even eat, it was naturally because of the letter from his eldest son, plus...

"Govern Sichuan, establish banks, set up new departments... and choose our sister as the chief priest!"

"The fourth brother will leave for the east next year, leaving the north completely vacant..."

"The four inspectors from the Zhao residence who were sent back southwest finally arrived not far from the palace, but their symptoms became more serious..."

"And the four storytellers I brought from Yingtian, my favorite entertainment, died of illness today. How come these scholars are even more delicate than us!"

At this moment, Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang was really tired.

When I go on a tour outside the capital, all kinds of things come up on their own endlessly.

Originally, he had arranged everything well! He let the conservative head of the Zhao family stay in the capital, so that his eldest son, the crown prince Zhu Biao, could sit firmly on the throne, and he would receive and send the processed memorials every day.

Who would have known that sending a blind man back home to live out his retirement, which showed his magnanimity, would not only be invited by his eldest son to the court, but also to the imperial study. The key point is that he really had the goods.

Isn't that blind man good at medical skills?!

What else is there to set up a trust fund to govern Shuchuan! The imperial court borrowed money to govern Shuchuan! That place itself is jealous, but it is not so anxious. Why is Biaoer, who has always been steady, anxious first!

However, it is really good to master the vulcanized rubber to control the steam engine after decentralization. Maybe when we are still here, we can make back the money from Shuchuan. The relevant commercial taxes must also be added!

"I'm talking to you! What on earth are you thinking about!"

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was still silent in his brainstorming, Empress Ma sat down, ordered her attendants to put down the food and leave, and then turned up the volume.

"Hey! Hey!"

"Hey, girl! Why are you here?"

Old Zhu finally came back to his senses, and when he saw the look in Empress Ma's eyes, he immediately shrank his neck.

"I asked you what you were thinking about all day and why you didn't eat. Do you really think you are still young?"

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's appearance, Empress Ma was both amused and angry. She returned to her normal self and presented the food to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Thank you, sister! Our sisters are so considerate!"

Zhu Yuanzhang took the bowl and started eating right away. He even had time to say thank you, but he avoided answering Empress Ma's questions.

As an old couple who had been married for so many years, Empress Ma could naturally feel that something was wrong.

She just smiled and then made a gesture to touch the pile of papers that Lao Zhu had just put down. Lao Zhu immediately put down his bowl and rushed over to protect it.

"Hey! Girl!"

"What is it, Your Majesty?"

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's nervousness and his habitual warning expression, Empress Ma simply responded with a half-smile and looked into his eyes calmly.

"These are government affairs, government affairs! Didn't we discuss this before? Don't worry about government affairs."

Old Zhu saw that he was exposed, but he still tried to be stubborn.

However, the expression of the girl in front of him remained unchanged, and her attitude did not give any denial or affirmation, so he finally panicked.

"Girl, it's nothing!"

"It's just that Biaoer said he missed you!"

"Then as a mother, I have to take a closer look!"

Old Zhu didn't expect that his quick thinking would create a loophole. He regretted it so much that he wanted to slap himself in the face.

Now, he could only tell everything.

"Caiyun, the four Zhao Mansion inspectors who were supposed to help our godson in his fiefdom are coming."

"There is also a new branch of the Imperial College, no, a main department. It is equivalent to building a new Imperial College specifically for people like us, specializing in the study of things and agronomy. The court officials all recommend you, my sister, to be the chief priest..."
