Chapter 385 New Transfer Order
"Mother, we have an unreasonable request, and we hope you can agree to it." Prince of Fushun Zhu Houkun and Prince of Yongxin Zhu Houxun.

"Go ahead!" Concubine Liu said lightly.

"Mother, sister-in-law and nephews have gone north, and our mother is the only one left in the mansion. She must be lonely, so we would like to ask mother to allow us to bring mother to our mansion to stay for a while." Fushun King Zhu Houkun said carefully.

The mother of Fushun Prince Zhu Houkun and Yongxin Prince Zhu Houhui was Zhang, the concubine of the previous king.

"Yes, after we leave, won't Sister Zhang be the only one left in the mansion? It's a good thing that you want to be filial to your biological mother. I agree." Concubine Liu said with a smile.

"Thank you, mother!" Fushun Prince Zhu Houkun and Yongxin Prince Zhu Houhui said overjoyed.

Concubine Liu then announced her departure. She boarded the carriage in the honor guard. Liu Yourong and Qin Yuelan were already waiting in the carriage. There were two three or four-year-old children beside them, playing around.
The two children immediately quieted down when they saw Concubine Liu. "Grandma, are we really going to see our father this time?"

Concubine Liu looked at her two grandchildren with a smile and said, "Yes, we will see your father soon."

The two children cheered immediately, and Liu Yourong and Qin Yuelan also smiled.

Concubine Liu lifted the curtain of the carriage and found many people from Qizhou waiting outside to see her off.
Qizhou is now the most prosperous prefecture in the Yangtze River Basin, and its products are sold well throughout the Yangtze River Basin.
However, Qizhou's development speed in the past three years was obviously not as fast as before. This was because Zhu Houxuan repeatedly transferred outstanding talents from various factories and mines in Qizhou to the north, which affected Qizhou's development speed.

However, Qizhou still relies on its advantages in water transportation, geography and first-mover advantage to continue to develop, attracting many men and women who come here for its reputation.
The people of Qizhou naturally knew how all this happened in Qizhou. After learning that Concubine Liu was going to Beijing, they spontaneously came to see her off.
Zhan Bin walked through the buildings in the Jingwang Mansion carrying a pot of wine. He was now the highest-ranking person in the Jingwang Mansion. Ever since Shi Lu was arrested eight years ago, he became the Left Chief Clerk of the Jingwang Mansion. After that, for some reason, the court never sent a new Right Chief Clerk, as if they had forgotten about this matter.

Therefore, in the past eight years, he was the only left chief secretary in the Prince of Jing's Palace.

Many of the eunuchs and maids in the Jingwang Mansion were dismissed by Zhu Houxuan a few years ago. Many rooms in the Jingwang Mansion have become offices for various industries in the Jingwang Mansion. Now it should be the office of the Qizhou branch of the Royal Group. Of course, the people inside have not changed much, just a new sign.
Zhan Bin liked the people working there because they were all very energetic young people. He wanted to join them, but he was the chief historian of the palace and he had his own work to do, so he never integrated into them and never participated in the management of the palace's industry, although he knew that the palace's industry was what Zhu Houxuan valued most.
When Concubine Liu left, it seemed that she handed over the power of the Jing Palace to Prince Fushun Zhu Houkun and Prince Yongxin Zhu Houhui, but Concubine Liu did not mention the most core power of the Jing Palace - the power of various industries, let alone handing it over. It is estimated that Concubine Liu could not hand it over, and she did not understand the industries of the Jing Palace.
Zhan Bin walked past the bustling office area, further and further away. After a while, he realized that he had come to a familiar place - a dilapidated alchemy furnace, on which the crooked Bagua pattern was still vaguely visible.
This is where Zhu Houxuan made steel. It was also the first open-hearth furnace in the Ming Dynasty. However, this open-hearth furnace has not been used for a long time.
Zhan Bin was lost in memories, and it took him a while to come back to his senses. He laughed and simply walked up to the city wall of the Jingwang Mansion. He leaned on the parapet on the city wall, opened the pot in his hand, and drank half of it in a gulp in the spring breeze.
He is really lonely now.
He knew that he was actually a jailer, and his duty was to keep an eye on the prisoners in the prison of Prince Jing's Mansion.
As a result, the prisoners in the Jingwang Mansion have left one by one. Not only the prisoners have left, but many of the original jailers have also left. Now he, the jailer, seems to have become a prisoner in this huge Jingwang Mansion.
Thinking of this, Zhan Bin's face became more depressed and he drank all the wine in the jug in one breath.

"Why are you so depressed? It's rare for a mere juren like you to reach the fifth rank in the Ming Dynasty. What else do you have to complain about?" Zhan Bin scolded himself while drunk.

Soon, the alcohol took over and he fell asleep.
"Master Zhan, Master Zhan, why are you sleeping here? It took us so long to find you." Zhan Bin suddenly heard a voice.
Zhan Bin then realized that he had slept on the city wall for a night and was now in a shabby state.
The person who spoke was Hou Sen, the eunuch who was Zhu Houxuan's study companion at the time.

"What do you want from me?" Zhan Bin asked while packing his clothes.

"It was the governor of Qizhou. He came to visit suddenly and said that he had received a letter from the Ministry of Personnel." Hou Sen looked at Zhan Bin with some envy.
"A letter from the Ministry of Personnel?" Zhan Bin's mind moved, "Is it related to me?"

"Yes, the Ministry of Personnel has issued a document asking you to go to the Ministry of Personnel in the capital as soon as possible to serve as Secretary Zhan. It seems that you are going to be promoted!" Hou Sen said with a smile.

"Go to the Ministry of Personnel in the capital to serve" Zhan Bin repeated these words blankly, and his eyes suddenly became brighter.
"Yes, this matter must be related to His Highness," Hou Sen said enviously.

Zhan Bin was filled with joy. He had escaped from the Jing Palace. A bigger world was beckoning to him.
When Zhan Bin received the letter from the Ministry of Personnel from the governor of Qizhou, it was indeed urging him to go to the capital as soon as possible.
Although he didn't understand what was going on, Zhan Bin decided to go to the capital immediately. After a brief thought, he decided to set off immediately. Concubine Liu and her group had only been gone for three or four days, so if he hurried, he should be able to catch up with them.
Shuntian Prefecture, Tongzhou New Army Camp.

Ma Desheng also packed up all his things. He looked around reluctantly. He had been here for more than two years. He never thought he would have the opportunity to leave like this.
He had several medals of honor and commemorative medals on his chest, the most prominent of which were the "Second Class Combat Hero" medal and the "Second Class Hand-to-Hand Assault Medal".
While he had made such great contributions, he was also seriously injured and had some sequelae that needed to be slowly recovered. This made him unsuitable to stay in the front-line combat troops. The training intensity there was too high and not conducive to recovery from injuries, so he had no choice but to retire.
"Ma Desheng, your receiving unit has been confirmed. It is the Royal Group Tangshan Industrial Zone Public Security Bureau. You will become a policeman." An officer walked in and said.

"police?"
