Boyan Timur was dissatisfied with the current Great Khan. He learned from Ulan Tuya and Haibie that the grandson of Emperor Zhaozong, Benya, was in Harie, and he was the authentic Emperor Xueyin. Harry searches for Benjathri. Yang Zirong advised that the army should not be raised at this time, and Zhu Di obeyed his advice and instead ordered the Dusi to stockpile farmland, train troops and raise horses in case of emergencies. Another messenger went to Helin and told the great Tartar Khan that if they knew that the etiquette was good, they should be regarded as one family and the world was the same, but the other party never replied a word. Zhu Di asked Xie Chunyu to write a similar book, but there are some rebellious words, he suggested to delete it. Zhu Di asked him to stay without a word, and he and Miao Yun couldn't wait to see it.

Xia Yuanji offered to Zhu Di a long-term plan for water control for Ye Zongxing, a Shanghai student, and Zhu Di, Longyan Dayue, promoted Ye Zong to be the county magistrate of Qiantang. He did not let the officials investigate Ye Zongxing, all because Xia Yuanji trusted Ye Zongxing, and Zhu Di also trusted Xia Yuanji. Xia Yuanji still had doubts for Zhu Di to answer. Zhu Di seemed to know what he wanted to ask, and asked him to accompany him to lunch. Xia Yuanji already knew about the shipbuilding at Longjiang Shipyard, and Zhu Di thought that it was shipbuilding, not Xingdao. He wanted to move the commoners from Jiangnan and Shaanxi to Peiping and Shandong together. As long as they opened up the land, he could follow the old example of Taizu, and he would never fail. This is a grand event that benefits the country and the people, and Xiayuan and Jidai thank Zhu Dilongen.

In order to fill the state treasury, Zhu Di planted crops and cut redundant food, all of which were the way of the state, but to ease the state's financial plan, these two things alone are far from enough. Zhu Di asked him to continue talking, and Xia Yuanji added that several strategies such as flat taxation, strict salt law, ban on money and banknotes, and the clearance market were available. Zhu Di was very happy and asked him to write a memorial to him. Xie Chunyu selected 28 people from the Xinke Scholars to study at the Hanlin Academy, but they couldn't even memorize what the snake catcher said. Zhu Di was very angry and sent them to guard the border. Afterwards, Xie Chunyu asked Xia Yuanji why Zhu Di didn't say a word when Zhu Di was so angry. Xia Yuanji believes that if he does not know the difficulties of farming and the suffering of the people, it is better to let them go to the garrison to endure hardships.

Miaoyun asked about the twenty-eight jinshi, and Zhu Diyi explained with her that it made some sense. Not long after, Zhu Di gave Dao Ji to return to the secular world and gave him the name Guangxiao, but Dao Yan ran away. The master's sister drove Daoyan out, and Zhu Di asked Ma He to invite Daoyan here. Daoyan advised that the twenty-six sons of Taizu, Zhu Biao, the Prince of Yiwen, were comparable to Zhu Di, but this Ming Dynasty may not be able to withstand the tossing of three generations of heroes, so the person who inherits Zhu Di's position must be willing to admit that he is not as good as Zhu Di. , so as to stop the military and let the Ming Dynasty recuperate. What Daoyan said was not unreasonable, and in the end Zhu Di made Zhu Gaochi the crown prince.

Zhu Di gave him the name of a horse and the character Zheng, and chose him as the official envoy to go out to sea. The twenty-eight jinshi had already returned to the capital. They knew Zhu Di's intentions, so Zhu Di gave them advice and allowed them to go back to the Hanlin Academy to study. Only by reading good books can they be good officials and good people. From the third year of Yongle to the eighth year of Xuande, Zheng He went to the Western Ocean, and carried out the largest sea voyage with the largest number of ships and seamen in ancient China and the longest time. Zhu Di tried to achieve the good wish of conquering the nations by dispatching Zheng He to the Western Ocean and the diplomatic model.

Miaoyun's health was getting worse and worse, and before the end of the dynasty, Zhu Di came to express his concern and condolences. Today is a good day. Zhu Di accompanied her out for a walk and talked about the past.
