After all the Eight Banners stationed in the Imperial City were driven out, Zhu Yicheng sent people to make a simple repair and moved them from the Governor's Office in Liangjiang. In the current imperial city, after removing the messy mandarins and patterns added by the Qing court later, the entire imperial city suddenly looked much more pleasing.

However, after the destruction of the imperial city over the years, except for the several halls that have basically remained intact, the other halls still need to be renovated. However, at present, it is not the time to spend a lot of effort to completely repair it. After taking down Jiangnan, the Ming army not only expanded its territory, but also increased the number of people under its rule by more than ten times. In addition, the food shortage last year made the people in Zhejiang and surrounding areas miserable. As the orthodox Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yicheng must be responsible for the people under his rule. In addition, there are also the refugees in various prefectures and counties after the war, and the reorganization of the army and other work, all of which require a lot of money.

After more than a year of development, the Sihai Commercial Bank in Ningbo has become a giant today. The entire commercial bank now has thousands of merchant ships and more than 100 escort warships. It can be said that it is the veritable maritime overlord in East Asia. Moreover, the Sihai Commercial Bank's operating routes have also grown from just a few to more than ten, especially after taking over Taiwan, the Sihai Commercial Bank has completely opened up the waterway to Nanyang.

In addition, Japan's maritime trade is also extremely prosperous. Although Japan's exchanges with the outside world have decreased a lot since the Tokugawa Shogunate closed its doors, Japan still has innate awe and closeness for China. Moreover, the maritime traders, the predecessor of the Sihai Business, had close contacts with Japanese merchants. After the completion of the Sihai Business, the trade between the two sides became more developed.

It can be said that the existence of Sihai Commercial Bank is a big help for Zhu Yicheng to stabilize the control area. It not only brings him a steady stream of huge returns, but also the rice and other grain crops transported from Nanyang have greatly alleviated the social instability factors caused by the food shortage. In addition, Shanghai trade promoted the development of private commerce and handicrafts, which also stimulated the rapid economic growth of the Mingjun-controlled area, and the continuous progress of Ningbo's primary industry has further promoted all this.

On this day, Zhu Yicheng issued an order to ask Xiao Yongzao and Cha Shenxing to prepare for the visit of the palace. Xiao Yongzao and Cha Shenxing, who had been waiting in the inn for a few days, quickly made preparations after receiving the notice. On the day of the meeting, they put on the Qing government's official uniform and escorted them into the imperial city by personnel. When they entered the towering imperial city, they saw an official in gorgeous official uniforms and were quietly waiting for them not far away.

"This is Mr. He, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites of the Ming Dynasty." The small official who accompanied Xiao Yongzao and Cha Shenxing to enter the palace introduced.

When he saw the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, Xiao Yongzao and Cha Shenxing's faces were extremely ugly. How could this Lord He and the others not recognize him? Isn't this the former Zhejiang governor of the Qing Dynasty, He Xianzu, who had previously offered Hangzhou City?

Now He Xianzu dressed up like a member of the Ming Dynasty. He wore a third-rank five-beam, a gold belt, a jade, yellow, green, red, and purple, a cloud, crane, flowers, and a blue silk net, a golden ribbon, and a gorgeous bullfighting suit. Compared with the gray-looking Manchu official uniform, which was worn like a chicken feather-like top wear in the hat, it looked particularly eye-catching.

Xiao Yongzao has a relatively straightforward personality. When He Xianzu saw this, he was immediately angry. The loss of Jiangnan was originally attributed to the loss of Zhejiang, and Zhejiang was lost because of the occupation of the capital Hangzhou. It can be said that this situation is now formed. In Xiao Yongzao's opinion, it was He Xianzu who was greedy for life and fearlessness to take the initiative to offer the city. Now that he suddenly saw this person here, Xiao Yongzao couldn't help but burst out angry in his eyes, wishing he could rush forward and punch He Xianzu in the face, who looked proud.

"Mr. Xiao!" As if feeling Xiao Yongzao's abnormality, Cha Shenxing quickly pulled down his robe and winked at him. Xiao Yongzao suppressed the anger in his heart, took a few deep breaths before finally calming down, and then continued to move forward.

"Mr. Xiao, Brother Huiyu, are you living in Nanjing these days? Are you accustomed to eating? I'm really sorry, He has been busy with official business and has not been able to visit him until today." He Xianzu looked smiling, as if he was happy to see his old friends. Before they could walk in, he took the initiative to step forward and say hello.

"Hmph!" Xiao Yongzao snorted coldly, and did not look at the other person directly. Cha Shenxing had a good temper. He smiled and greeted him. Then he deliberately looked at the other person's outfit and asked with a smile: "Mr. He is so majestic in his dress. It seems that Mr. He has made great contributions to the Lord, which is why he has the current atmosphere."

Cha Shenxing's words were clearly a satirical mockery of He Xianzu. The meaning of the words was that he sold the owner and the thief to get the glory and wealth today. But who would have thought that He Xianzu was not embarrassed at all. His fat face smiled like a flower: "This is all the kindness of the love of the supervisor. Where did He come from? Besides, He should serve the supervisor. This is the duty of our children of the Han family. The land of Shenzhou has been inhabited for a long time, and the supervisor is born under the will of heaven. Now He has finally regained his clothes and clothes of the Han family. This is not only my happiness, but also the joy of the people of the world! The so-called good birds choose trees to live on, good ministers choose masters to work, Mr. Xiao, why shouldn't you follow the will of heaven? "

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yongzao and Cha Shenxing's faces changed suddenly, especially Xiao Yongzao was so angry that his forehead was filled with blue veins.

He Xianzu did not wait for them to speak, but then yelled and laughed, "Sorry, He was happy when he saw his old friend. He was really confused when he talked without saying anything. He actually forgot that the two of them are still working on the side of the Yimai. But... it doesn't matter, this person always changes, just like He Tou, did he also vote for the wrong person at the beginning? He went astray and finally turned around. It would be a good thing to go back later as long as he finally returned to the right path. OK, these words are too far away. Mr. Xiao, Brother Hui Yu, today He is here to welcome the two of you for the special supervisor, and ask the two to come with He..."

After saying that, He Xianzu didn't care about the other party's reaction, turned around and walked first. Looking at his back, Xiao Yongzao was so angry that he gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.
