The name of Sun Chuanting, the governor of Shaanxi, was also known to all generals.

If the crown prince hadn't come out of nowhere and led them to make great achievements, Huang Degong and the others would have a far different status from Sun Chuanting, and they would have to look up to them all their lives.

After more than two months of fighting with the crown prince, they were now viscounts and barons, and they could sit at the same table and talk with the governor of the five provinces, Lu Xiangsheng, and the governor of Shanxi, Sun Chuanting.

The scene in front of them made Huang Degong and other warriors feel like they were in a dream, and they could only secretly lament that they were following the crown prince to live in such a good way.

"Do you all know each other? Come to the table and serve the food!"

After everyone got to know each other, Zhu Cihong waved his hand, and Xu Liang led Jun and the beauties to start serving food.

When the first little beauty came up with a plate of braised Yellow River carp, Zhu Cixiang was stunned:

"Li Yun, why are you working as a waiter here?"

Li Yun is the elder sister of the two siblings who were rescued by Zhu Cixi in Miyun. Li Mi has become Yue Yang's apprentice, and both of them currently live in Yue Yang's mansion.

Zhu Cixiang knew that the little girl had done business, so he asked Li Yun to familiarize himself with the properties under his name two days ago. If Li Yun really had the talent for business, Zhu Cixiang was prepared to reuse her.

Unexpectedly, Li Yun came to work as a waiter in Jun, and was the first one to serve food.

When Zhu Cihong first met Li Yun, she was just a thin and dark little girl. After not seeing her for twenty days, the little girl seemed to have changed a lot. Not only was she whiter, but she was also fatter than before. She looked very delicate after changing her clothes.

Li Yun put down the big braised Yellow River carp, walked quickly to Zhu Cixiang, knelt down and gave a big gift:

"See Your Highness, thank you for taking me in, otherwise my sister and I might have starved to death. Yun'er is still familiar with His Highness's business, and it may take some time before we can gradually start to open for business."

Zhu Cixiang nodded and reached out to pull Li Yun up:

"Well, I understand. Work hard. I hope that the industry under my name can develop and grow in your hands. I will not treat you badly by then. Go and get busy!"

"Thank you, Your Highness, Yun'er will do his best for Chitose."

Li Yun bowed slightly and exited the private room.

Zhu Cixiang was so kind and approachable to an ordinary little girl. Sun Chuanting and Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help but give him a big thumbs up. He is definitely the future emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Meeting the crown prince in this life is worth it!

Xu Liang did not expect that Li Yun would serve the dishes with a plate. When Li Yun came out, he hurried in to apologize:

"Your Highness, I don't dare to let Yun'er be a waiter. He came here secretly just now...

Zhu Cixiang waved his hand:

"It doesn't matter, as long as she likes it, let her do whatever she wants. How many days will she spend in the hotel to see how she behaves?"

Xu Liang:

"Reporting to Your Highness, this child is very sensible and smart. He should make a difference in the future."

Zhu Cixi nodded:

"Well, let's go down!"

There are really many properties under Zhu Cihong's name, including three brothels, which were all obtained by ransacking the houses, but no one has taken care of them.

If Li Yun really has the ability to integrate good industries and dispose of loss-making industries, it will be too late for Zhu Cixiang to be happy. How can accounting be better than others?

The lunch was a lively one, with the crown prince and the generals chatting and laughing, which moved Sun Chuanting very much. This was the first time he had experienced such a meal.

After lunch, Sun Chuanting went back to tidy up briefly and prepared to meet up with the people sent by Deshengmen and the Crown Prince.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he went out, he found a group of people waiting in line downstairs. The leader was none other than Li Shouting.

Seeing Sun Chuanting coming downstairs, Li Shouting immediately got off his horse and stepped forward to salute:

"Master Supervisor, please get on the carriage!"

Sun Chuanting waved his hand and said:

"If the carriage is too slow, it will affect the speed of the army. It's better to ride with everyone and set off!"

After saying this, Sun Chuanting flew onto his horse.

"Here"

Li Shouting also jumped on the horse:

"Send the order, the army sets off!"

There were a thousand men and horses, all cavalry. Sun Chuanting was very surprised.

As a scholar who led the army in war, Sun Chuanting knew that the Ming Dynasty lacked war horses, but the crown prince was so generous that he gave a thousand cavalrymen at one time.

"General Li, the Ming Dynasty is short of war horses. Will these thousand horses affect the combat effectiveness of His Highness's army?"

Li Shouting cupped his hands and smiled:

"Master Superintendent, these thousand men are not all cavalry. They can mount their horses to kill the enemy, and dismount their horses to form formations and use muskets to defend against the enemy. They should be said to be one thousand all-round warriors.

But don't worry, Sir, the lack of a thousand men will not have any impact on the National Protector's Army. I heard that His Highness will recruit one hundred thousand troops recently, and all departments of the National Protector's Army will increase their numbers in large numbers. In the next few years, the number of the National Protector's Army will definitely reach 300,000.

"

Li Shouting's words shocked Sun Chuanting. The concept of recruiting 100,000 troops was absolutely huge. The military pay required was definitely huge.

How the Ming Dynasty could raise an army of 100,000 people with firearms, let alone more than hundreds of thousands of soldiers with firearms, is unbelievable.

While the two were talking, the army arrived at Deshengmen. Sun Chuanting suddenly discovered that the Crown Prince and the group of generals who had eaten in the morning were waiting for them at Deshengmen.

Sun Chuanting's heart felt warm and his eyes felt a little sore. He hurriedly dismounted his horse and walked quickly to Zhu Cixiang, knelt down and bowed:

"Your Highness, Sun Chuanting is so virtuous and capable that he actually asked His Highness to see him off in person!"

Zhu Cihong stretched out his hand to help Sun Chuanting up and said with a smile:

"Bo Ya is the pillar of my Ming Dynasty. Why can't I give him to you? This repeating gun is for self-defense. I wish Aiqing a safe journey!"

"Thank you, Your Highness, even if Sun Chuanting is shattered to pieces, he will never disappoint your expectations!"

Sun Chuanting hurriedly and excitedly saluted Zhu Cixiang with a military salute.

Li Shouting raised his hand, and the thousand soldiers following Sun Chuanting immediately raised their hands to salute the crown prince, and shouted: Ming Dynasty will be victorious:

"salute!"

"The Ming Dynasty will be victorious!"

Zhu Cixiang raised his hand to return a military salute to the soldiers. Huang Degong behind him was infected by the atmosphere in front of him and shouted to the general beside him:

"salute!"

"The Ming Dynasty will be victorious!"

Huang Degong was not the leader of the National Defense Army, but he actually commanded Zhou Yuji and others.

Zhou Yuji and others glanced at Huang Degong with a smile, quickly raised their hands in salute, and followed Huang Degong in shouting that the Ming Dynasty would be victorious:

"Wan Sheng, Wan Sheng..."

Sun Chuanting could no longer control his emotions at the scene before him, and a line of tears quietly slipped from the corners of his eyes.

This pillar of the Ming Dynasty, who died in battle without shedding a single tear, was actually moved to tears by the Crown Prince and his subordinates...

Not far from the farewell crowd, Yang Sichang, who was wearing casual clothes, watched from a distance as Sun Chuanting led his men away, feeling very uncomfortable in his heart.

The Secretary of the Ministry of War, who was originally thought to be an ironclad official, was unexpectedly defeated by Lu Xiangsheng. Sun Chuanting, the governor of Shanxi, was originally impeached and banned from the capital.

Unexpectedly, the crown prince guaranteed him to send troops and appointed him as the governor of Shaanxi. Now Sun Chuanting's power was greater than before.

Yang Sichang felt very sad, so he turned around and put on his red official uniform and rushed to Qianqing Palace. Since ancient times, the prince did not lead the army, so he wanted to report what he saw to Chongzhen.

Qianqing Palace

Emperor Chongzhen followed Zhu Cixiang's suggestion and sent an order from the Ministry of Rites to send people to Fujian to meet with Zheng Zhilong.

Later, a decree was issued to exempt the disaster area from taxes for three years, and Zhu Dadian was appointed governor of water transportation to be responsible for transporting grain from Jiangnan for disaster relief.

At this time Wang Chengen came in and reported:
Chapter completed!
