Qi Tai returned to the government office in a very bad mood, so he retreated to the signing room and drank tea to relax.

At that time, Chen Zhi, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of War, came in to report on military affairs. After finishing his business, Chen Zhi took the official document that had been signed and sealed, and was about to leave, but suddenly turned around and asked, "What are you worried about?"

Qi Tai took a look at Chen Zhi and felt that this man was usually honest, meticulous, and a man of few words and a tight-lipped person, so he asked him to come back and sit down again.

After a moment's silence, Qi Tai sighed and said, "Huang Zicheng insisted on recommending Li Jinglong. I am very worried that His Majesty will really listen to him."

Chen Zhi was not surprised at all and nodded, "Your Majesty will definitely listen to Huang Siqing. During the Hongwu period, Emperor Xiaokang (Taizu's eldest son Zhu Biao) was still aliv

    Qi Tai confirmed his guess from the palace maid Yao Ji and asked carefully. He thought there would be nothing wrong before leaving Jiming Temple.Early the next morning, Qi Tai waited outside Donghua Gate early, and went in when the imperial city opened. The officials who entered the imperial city were tidying up their clothes outside Fengtian Gate. At this time, the eunuch Wu Zhong appeared in the crowd and reminded the officials of the hour.As usual, Qi Tai exchanged a few words with Wu Zhong and then asked Wu Zhong for help. He said that he had something secret that he wanted to see alone and asked Wu Zhong to tell the emperor.Wu Zhong is still very effective in doing things! After the morning court, Wu Zhong followed him out of Fengtian Gate and called Qitai to see him.At this time, Huang Zicheng saw the two of them muttering and walking north again, so he looked back twice in a row. But Qitai couldn't care about him anymore.Qitai followe

    The Imperial Street had just been swept in the morning, but fallen leaves were floating on the brick floor in the afternoon. The capital was covered with dark clouds, and it was impossible to tell whether it was morning or afternoon just by looking at the sky.Ministers walked towards Fengtian Gate one after another. Huang Zicheng tidied up the table, straightened his black hat with both hands, and stood up and went out to Fengtian Gate.His Majesty summoned the ministers this afternoon to discuss the matter of suppressing the Yan rebellion. The most important thing was to decide on a new commander-in-chief to replace Geng Bingwen who was killed in Zhending.Huang Zicheng is still unsure who he will choose.These days, the emperor has been waiting for the opinions of his ministers. Huang Zicheng has always wanted to recommend Li Jinglong, but the Minister of War Qi Tai opposed it and strongly recommended Guo Ying; Xu Huizu again recommended Sheng Yong.

    A few days later, Zhu Gaoxu returned to Peking with the Yan army.The wound of Captain Wang Bin was only a flesh wound, and it would be fine as long as it did not get infected. Zhu Gaoxu asked him to take off his clothes and observe. Seeing that the wound was healing, he was relieved and asked Wang Bin to go home to recuperate first.When he returned to the Prince's Mansion, the eunuchs and servants came out to greet him and asked him about his well-being. Zhu Gaoxu took off his armor and military uniform and went back to the inner hall to rest.The people in the mansion were still the same as before, but for some reason, Zhu Gaoxu always felt it was deserted. It was like a person who had been working away from home for many years and suddenly returned to an empty home and felt a sense of strangeness.The Prince's Mansion was not empty, there were many people. Zhu Gaoxu soon realized: Du Qianrui was missing.Without her, there would be no delicio

    The Prince of Yan's attitude towards others was very contagious. He put his hands behind his back, walked in front of his seat with his burly body, frowned, and seemed to be thinking about what else he could give Zhu Gaoxu.In addition, he is his biological father. Who wouldn't be willing to work for him willingly and risk their lives? It's no wonder that King Gaoyang worked so hard in history and believed that he was the heir... In fact, King Yan had always treated King Gaoyang fairly well. After all, he was his biological son. It was just that King Gaoyang didn't treat him as well as he expected.At this time, the King of Yan turned around and said, "Last time you asked for merit for your generals, I agreed to your request and promoted Wang Bin and Wei Da to the rank of captains. They will go with you to Yongping Guard to gather troops."Zhu Gaoxu fully understood one thing: if his father was willing to give him something and really gave it to him, he coul

    At noon, Zhu Gaoxu was invited by Princess Xu to have lunch, and Prince Yan also came to the dining room. Zhu Gaoxu ate the meal in a very restrained manner, which did not feel like he was having a meal with his parents at all.However, the dining room of the Prince's Mansion was really luxurious, with valuable antique calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls, fine mahogany furniture in the room, and exquisite tableware from the Jingdezhen official kiln. The dishes were also very rich, and they were completely different from what Zhu Gaoxu enjoyed in the Prince's Mansion!Eating here and comparing the house with the low houses outside the Prince of Yan's Mansion, Zhu Gaoxu felt like he had traveled through time again. The inside and outside were two worlds with different levels of civilization.Princess Xu picked up a piece of fried mutton offal for Zhu Gaoxu and sighed softly, "Gaoxu is already of marriageable age, and I am still worried about this ma

    The soldiers of Yongping Guard had been transferred away by Prince Yan, and only about 300 people were left to garrison.Zhu Gaoxu retreated to the signing room, where he flipped through the messy files that Jin Zhong had given him before he left, and asked his generals to think of a solution.At this time, Liu Ying, a centurion captured from Xiong County, said, "I have some ideas, but I wonder if I should tell you about them?""Captain Liu, please feel free to speak." Zhu Gaoxu looked up and said.Liu Ying clasped his fists and said, "The local garrison troops are usually divided into defense and farming, and they rotate regularly, and there is a system. In recent years, the garrison system has been rigid, and no one will change the rules before the rotation period. The Prince of Yan has just started his army, and everything is hasty. It is possible that he has only transferred the garrison troops, and the troops who are farming in various places shou

    The city of Daning in the eastern part of Yanshan is still peaceful.A general stood behind the battlements of the city wall. He was dressed in armor, holding the hilt of his sword with his left hand, squinting his eyes and looking into the distance. His name was Li Tai, a general of Daning. He had another identity in private: he was ordered by the court to secretly monitor King Ning.Everything Li Tai saw was so calm, except his heart.It was precisely because there was no movement in Daning City that it seemed so unusual... If Prince Ning Zhu Quan would obey the imperial edict, he should have mobilized his troops, packed up his things and headed to Liaodong. How could he pretend that nothing had happened?Li Tai couldn't pretend nothing happened. Prince Yan had already rebelled in Beiping! Something bad would happen to Daning sooner or later!At this time, a general came up to the city wall, clasped his fists and said, "General, there is a man

    The sky gradually darkened and the lights came on. Gao Xu held Miao Jin's hand and followed the crowd into the concert hall.People were all dressed up, especially women, who were all dressed up. Some wore traditional clothes such as ruqun or aoqun, while others were dressed in modern fashion. Each figure seemed to be wandering between the classical and the modern.Among them there are many foreigners, probably all of whom came to Taicang to attend international conferences.In terms of fun, people might prefer to watch a movie rather than enjoy such pure music. However, there were still many listeners tonight, and the auditorium gradually filled up.Perhaps some of them value the rarity of concerts and do not attend them often, while others simply value their style.Gao Xu's main happiness comes from Miao Jin's company. Imagine if he came alone or with someone unrelated, his feelings would be much worse. He is willing to be with Miao Jin and exp

    There were long commercials playing on TV, but no one changed the channel.Miao Jin was doing chores and preparing ingredients for lunch. Gao Xu began to check his various instruments, which were all measuring tools he had collected a while ago.There is a ray detector, which, according to the manual, can detect radiation, including ultraviolet light, laser and other electromagnetic waves. There is a torsion balance experimental device, which can measure the gravitational constant. And an air measuring instrument.There were also some uncommon small devices. In short, except for the large instruments that were difficult to carry, he tried his best to buy all the instruments that could test general constants.Miao Jin would occasionally look over here curiously, but before she asked, she might have guessed what Gao Xu was going to do.Gao Xu would tell her clearly as long as she asked. Because when he was going to look for the cave in Huangshan, h

    Gao Xu usually doesn't like watching TV. But today, when Miao Jin was watching TV in the living room, he was gradually attracted by the TV program, so he stopped what he was doing and sat next to Miao Jin.There was a studio on the TV screen, with two hosts, a man and a woman, talking about the animation "Zootopia" like a crosstalk. It was neither news nor entertainment, but a show that mocked reality.Miao Jin saw Gao Xu sitting over and said, "This TV station should be more inclined to the left-wing viewpoint."Gao Xu asked, "Why haven't I heard of the distinction between left and right wings?"Miao Jin said, "It is originally an imported product. That is how foreigners describe Ming Dynasty politics. There is no clear distinction between left and right in China. So we generally don't use such words. It is normal that we don't hear them normally."She glanced at Gao Xu and continued, "This classification first appeared in the parliament during

    Gao Xu's drama project has less than half the investment of the animation project, with a total investment of about 40 million yen for 15 episodes; the profit expectations are also completely incomparable to those of animated films. As Wang Siqi and most people believe, the fastest way to make money is still the movie box office.But Gao Xu has invested more energy in costume dramas.The crew built a filming site in the Western Regions. From 509 to the first half of 510, a production period of less than a year, Gao Xu flew twice to personally observe the filming site. His subordinate Sun Jing also stayed in the Western Regions for a long time, passing various information back to Taicang.A large media company in Taicang has signed an exclusive premiere agreement with Dream Incubation Studio.The terms are a bit complicated, but the key is to adopt a cooperation model with floating copyright fees. When the series is almost finished, a pay TV station und

    The glass window on the outer wall is located in the east direction, so the sunlight cannot enter the studio in the afternoon. Therefore, Gao Xu often has a slight illusion that it seems to be later than the actual time.At this moment, the phone in his coat pocket rang. Gao Xu's phone rarely received calls because he had set the Do Not Disturb function, so no calls could be received from numbers that were not saved. He took it out and saw that it was a person who he did not contact often but had saved the number a long time ago, Sun Jing.Gao Xu stood up from his desk, walked to the corner by the glass window, glanced at Wang Cheng not far away, and answered the phone.Sun Jing's voice asked, "Are you still busy with work?"Gao Xu said, "Yes, I am working on two projects at the same time, so I am a little busy. How is Mr. Sun doing recently?"Sun Jing, "Very boring. I don't have to go to work, but I've been idle for so long that I feel like I'm

    This was the second time Gao Xu and Xiao Yu had a meal together. Last time they were at the company cafeteria, and today they were at a roadside fast food restaurant.After finishing work at the agency, Gao Xu drove off the main road and found a parking space. Then he randomly found a restaurant where he could eat and walked in with Xiao Yu.It was very lively inside, with all kinds of customers, including well-dressed office workers and some homely citizens, men, women, young and old, making a big noise in the room, mixed with the loud shouts of the shop assistants passing on information. Although the air conditioner was on, the shop was open and there were many people, so it was still very hot inside.There were several dishes to choose from, all of which were simple and convenient. Gao Xu and Xiao Yu gave up on the braised pork intestines with radish, and roast duck was too greasy, so they chose roast chicken.The roasted chicken skin was cut into p

    After many twists and turns, Gao Xu finally contacted the director named Ma Xuan.Ma Xuan has an account on the Internet where he posts some career news. Gao Xu's assistant Yu Ni left messages and sent messages, but it took several days for her to get a response. Gao Xu came to the hall and looked through the information records on Yu Ni's computer."He doesn't seem very proactive." Yu Ni said.Gao Xu said , "You claim to be the assistant of the investor of "Dream Seekers", but he may not believe you. If our studio also has such a certified account, it may save some trouble."At this time, Shidai Heng walked by and greeted him, "Mr. Liu."Gao Xu nodded and said, "We are trying to contact Ma Xuan, the director you recommended."Dai Heng came over and said, "He should have received a lot of similar messages. And there is indeed some false information on the Internet. For the purpose of advertising, people may lie about their identities, which

    The people who work here, including Dai Heng who has only been here a few days, seem to have gotten used to the environment.The studio was in good condition. The morning sun shone in through the French windows, and the room was clean and tidy. In addition to the solid wood desk and bookshelf, and a full range of domestic electrical appliances (Made in China products are more expensive), there were also comfortable leather chairs.Gao Xu was in Xiao Deng's office at the moment, sitting on one of the leather chairs, holding a tablet and reading the text he had just copied from Xiao Deng's computer. Of course, he couldn't help but listen to the sound of her keyboard at the same time.He put down the tablet, picked up the cup next to him, and found it was empty. So he stood up and walked to the water dispenser, filled up half a cup of hot water, then took a tea bag and put it in the cup to soak for more than ten seconds, then took it out and put it next to him.

    The next screenwriter who came to the studio for an interview was named Dai Heng, who should be a relatively unknown person.Gao Xu looked out from the glass wall and when he saw Dai Heng, he immediately guessed that this person was probably not married yet. Dai Heng was wearing a brand new suit, a white shirt with a small cross collar, and a pair of casual leather shoes that didn't match. The most unpleasant thing about Dai Heng was his long hair, but unlike the image of Ekin Cheng, Gao Xu felt at first glance that Dai Heng was not suitable for that hairstyle. Some hairstyles look good, but they are picky about the face.But these are not problems. Now that the people have arrived, Gao Xu needs to get to know them a little bit.Gao Xu pressed the phone on the desk, "Xiao Yu, ask him to come to the office to meet.""Okay." Xiao Yu said into the phone outside, his voice coming from the desk inside.Dai Heng came in from the door with a bag on his
