Blood suddenly appeared.
Yamashi wanted to curse, but he saw the eunuch holding a knife staring at him. If he dared to curse, the eunuch dared to cut his tongue.
This Ming Emperor is not a fool who is easily deceived.
But a tyrant!
A complete tyrant!
"A ship loaded with crops, you said it came to Ming Dynasty to make money?"
"What about fooling fools?"
"How many crops are missing during the Ming Dynasty? Is this thing made of gold? So valuable?"
Zhu Qiyu had discovered this big loophole a long time ago and sneered: "Recruit me from the truth, what are you going to do?"
Yes, such a ship loaded with crops docked.
It is definitely not about bringing crops to Daming in exchange for money.
It is very likely that they robbed people from Guangdong and colonized other countries.
According to common sense, it is impossible for these crops to be sent to the Ming Dynasty. This is the capital of colonization and will not be given away easily.
According to the logic of the colonists, the current Francois are not strong enough in the East.
So I haven’t taken off the mask of hypocrisy yet.
It should just be a port-of-call stage.
Therefore, people are needed for planting. The only people in the world who are best at farming are the Han people, so their purpose of landing is to plunder people.
Zhu Qiyu kept silent, just to squeeze out their secrets.
"The destination of the boat is the Kingdom of Sulu..." Yamashi confessed.
It’s pretty much what Zhu Qiyu thought.
The Flemish people first rented the land, then built ports and fortresses. When reinforcements arrived, they began to colonize.
The purpose of this fleet was to buy some people from the Ming Dynasty. The reason why they did not rob them by force was because there were few ships and insufficient weapons, so they settled for the next best thing and bought from the Ming Dynasty.
But they had no money, so Liu Yu happened to invite Fo LangJi to Beijing.
They thought this was an opportunity to deceive the Ming Emperor and asked him to grant a piece of land to allow their ships to dock.
Because Ming Dynasty was rich, they wanted to defraud money from Ming Dynasty. Of course, it would be better if they could colonize Ming Dynasty.
No matter how difficult it is, you can still bring some people to farm in the Sulu Kingdom.
When these words came out, Feng Xiao was dumbfounded.
"How big a territory do you Fo Lang Ji Cai have, and you actually want to engulf the Sulu Kingdom?" Feng Xiao was surprised.
The Sulu Kingdom is located in the southern part of Mindanao and consists of several islands. During the Yongle period, the King of the East, the King of the West, and the King of Dong came to Beijing for pilgrimage. The East King also died of illness in Shandong.
Nowadays, the Sulu Kingdom regards the Ming Dynasty as its suzerain state and has good exchanges with it.
Therefore, the Ming Dynasty was relatively clear about the Sulu Kingdom.
But Amaz gave him a look of fool. Does national strength depend on territorial area?
Feng Xiao felt ridiculed.
Zhu Qiyu couldn't help but laugh: "Feng Xiao, Fo Langji seems to be a small place with few people, and its national power is no less than that of the Ming Dynasty. It's just because Fo Langji is too far away from the Ming Dynasty. If the two countries are bordering, with the help of the ships of the Fo Langji people, the Ming Dynasty will be defeated." Not necessarily an opponent.”
"How is that possible?" Feng Xiao couldn't believe it.
Ming Dynasty is powerful and deeply rooted in people's hearts.
Didn’t Huanghuang Dayuan also become addicted to the prosperity of Middle-earth in the end?
Prosperous China is the most prosperous country in the world.
Moreover, the Ming Dynasty was in its prime, with bright kings and famous ministers in the dynasty, and it was extremely powerful.
How could this Folangji be stronger and richer than Ming Dynasty? It's simply impossible.
But how did the emperor know?
"Let him answer." Zhu Qiyu did not explain.
Yamashi didn't dare to say it. In his eyes, although the Ming Dynasty was rich, its military strength was lagging behind.
In recent years, Fo Langji has been robbing the Ming Dynasty offshore. The Ming Dynasty didn't even dare to fart, so how strong could it be?
In fact, Ming Dynasty didn’t even know who the pirates in the offshore were?
Feng Xiao saw contempt in Yamashi's eyes.
Feng Xiaoru was struck by lightning: "How is this possible?"
"In my dream, if there is a naval battle, even ten Ming Dynasties cannot defeat the Folangji. If there is a land battle, even a hundred Folangji cannot defeat the Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "But when it comes to wealth, Feng Xiao, you must never underestimate the wealth of foreign countries."
Feng Xiao was completely shocked.
how can that be possible?
Zhu Qiyu did not explain that he deliberately instilled the idea of overseas prosperity into the courtiers in order to lay the foundation for expansion.
"How many people are in your fleet?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
Yamas didn't dare to lie: "Eight small boats, more than 200 sailors, Your Majesty the Emperor, I am really a serious businessman."
It doesn't matter whether you are serious or not.
Stay in the palace and serve.
"What cargo is on board?"
Amaz said that only two ships had cargo and eight were empty.
Apparently they were kept for show.
"What about artillery? Are they on every ship?" Zhu Qiyu asked casually.
Yamas actually nodded, as if to show his strength. He said that each crew member was equipped with two muskets and countless ammunition, and all eight ships were equipped with artillery.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Qiyu's eyes lit up.
The Fo Lang machine artillery is more advanced than the Ming Dynasty artillery. Can a batch of them be captured and ordered to be copied by Ming craftsmen?
The Ordnance Bureau has been developing it for so long, but it hasn't even been developed yet. It even keeps coming to the palace to cry and complain that there is not enough saltpeter or iron.
Zhu Qiyu asked them to go to the toilet and dig themselves.
Because the Ordnance Bureau had not yet released results, he began to reduce the meals provided by the Ordnance Bureau and expressed his dissatisfaction with the entire Ordnance Bureau.
However, Fo Langji has ready-made firearms. If he seizes a batch and then imitates them, he will take a shortcut.
At this time, Liu Yu entered the palace wiping the sweat from his forehead.
Seeing the bloodstains in the palace, he was so frightened that he knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, please forgive me! Your Majesty, please forgive me!"
His apology interrupted Zhu Qiyu's thoughts, and he waved his hand: "It has nothing to do with you, get up."
"Liu Yu, I ask you, can Guangdong prepare for the Japanese army and fight a battle offshore?"
"Ah?" Liu Yu didn't understand, and his words made no sense.
"These two businessmen are not sincerely performing Hajj, but they want to rob Daming Dingkou and colonize the Sulu Kingdom."
Zhu Qiyu said quietly: "The Sulu Kingdom regards the Ming Dynasty as its suzerainty, and I have the obligation to protect the Sulu Kingdom."
"So I thought, if I catch this fleet, can the Ming Dynasty win this battle?"
"These rotten people disrespect the Emperor of Heaven and should be punished for their crimes!"
Liu Yu knelt on the ground: "The emperor ordered me to recruit troops to defend the majesty of the Tian family. I am willing to die to protect the emperor's power!"
Flattery sounds nice, but maybe it shouldn't be spanked?
After a beating, how do you deal with the aftermath?
Zhu Qiyu wanted the ships of the Fo Lang machine and firearms such as the Fo Lang machine cannon and fire blunderbuss.
If you want to buy it, they will definitely not sell it, so why not take advantage of it and rob it offshore?
After getting it to the capital and starting to imitate it, by the time Fo Langji came to ask for an explanation, had Ming Dynasty already succeeded in imitating it?
Wait, are the firearms on his ship the most advanced ones from Folangji?
Zhu Qiyu was also unsure.
"That is to say, can the Japanese troops in Guangdong fight this battle?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
"Return to your Majesty, I can fight!" Liu Yu kowtowed.
Yamashi could understand a few words of Chinese and was full of surprise. Is this emperor a madman?
Isn’t it said that the Ming Emperor was the stupidest, giving out a lot of rewards after just flattering him a few times? This is how it is spread in small overseas countries.
Why is this emperor different from what others say?
Isn't this the Ming Dynasty?
Moreover!
We didn't do anything. We just went to the Sulu Kingdom to make a living. What does it have to do with the Ming Dynasty? Why are you beating us?
Your Ming Dynasty is a country, not a bandit to attack!
Yamashi looked at the three fingers on the ground miserably, and then he realized that whether to hit or not was only decided by the Ming Emperor's thoughts.
He suddenly understood that such a huge empire was in the hands of the Ming Emperor. No wonder the eunuchs serving him looked down upon the great Spain!
Compared with the vast and rich Ming Dynasty, Spain is indeed just a small place.
He spent the first half of his life wandering on a boat, just trying to grab some food and clothing. He thought he was already bad enough.
As for the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he killed people with joy and anger, and thousands of people died for him with just a touch of his lips.
This is power!
The supreme power!
At such a moment, he had an unquenchable thirst for power.
"I'll think about it some more."
Zhu Qiyu planned to go to the court tomorrow to discuss with the courtiers: "Let this man stay in the palace. After bandaging him, he will be castrated and stay in the palace to serve him."
"Liu Yu, be prepared, you may leave Beijing at any time."
"Go back to Guangzhou and find a group of red-haired ghosts for me to bring to the palace. It's best to have a group of knowledgeable people sent to the palace to serve me."
Liu Yu understood.
The emperor is interested in Western scriptures, so that's no problem. There are many Western merchants in Guangzhou, so he asked them to return home and plunder a group of people. The Ming Dynasty just sent a few ships of porcelain.
If there was none, they robbed the Taixi merchants. Anyway, the Great Cannibals, the Great Qin people, and the Taixi people all looked the same, like ghosts, and it was hard to tell them apart.
"This slave will take care of it when you get back." Liu Yu kowtowed.
The matter of the Emperor is a matter of great importance.
Yamas was confused. He didn't know what castration meant, but when he heard that he was going to stay in the palace, he burst into tears.
Can't go back, can't go back!
"Not only Thais, but also foreigners who you think are knowledgeable and capable, regardless of gender, are sent to the palace. I will hire them at my discretion."
Not everyone can be a eunuch.
It also depends on the emperor's mood.
"My slave obeys the order!" Liu Yu understood that the mission when he returned was to arrest people.
If the quality in the Ming Dynasty is not good, let those businessmen return to the country to catch it. The porcelain of the Ming Dynasty can make the world crazy, and just a few people are nothing.
"By the way, don't kill that Lidodd. Send him back to the palace to keep him company."
Zhu Qiyu glanced at Yamashi: "You are a good person, give me a ridiculous name, Yamashi, it sounds terrible. I will give you the name Liu Ya, and serve you well in the palace."
Bang!
Feng Xiao kicked Yamashi in the leg: "Why don't you kneel down to thank me?"
They all coveted the name given by the Emperor. Why did this damn yellow-haired monster receive the name given by the Emperor?
After entering the palace, our family should train you well.
Zhu Qiyu retracted his thoughts and dealt with the memorial, but his heart was impetuous and he couldn't see it: "Go and invite the old master, and use the royal chariot to pick him up."
It's not difficult to rob a group of Folangji people.
The difficult thing is, how to stop Fo Langji's revenge?
In recent years, pirates have become rampant and the shipping company has become increasingly depressed.
In addition, the Ming Dynasty's coastline is too long, and pirates are rampant in offshore areas, making it difficult for the Ming Dynasty to guard against it.
Fo Langji's ship can log in from any location, and it will be the common people who will suffer.
Therefore, the court issued decrees several times, ordering the people near the coast to move inland. However, if the people wanted to make a living, they would give up the fishing industry on the coast if it were not for the decree issued by the court.
As a result, they were frequently massacred by pirates.
If Fo Langji is angered and provokes Fo Langji to kill him, Ming Dynasty's already not wealthy navy will be defeated in another battle. How can he build a navy again?
Alas, how much I miss the Yongle era.
The Ming Dynasty has the best navy in the world!
Just as he was thinking about it, Hu Xi came in and knelt.
"Old Master, please get up and give me a seat quickly." Zhu Qiyu gave a brief description and specifically said that the Folang machine's firearms were more advanced than those of the Ming Dynasty.
Hu Xi was shocked and shook her head firmly: "Impossible!"
"The Ming Dynasty's firearms are number one in the world, how could it be surpassed by the Folangji?"
"Your Majesty must have been deceived by Xiao Xiao, that's for sure."
Hu Hui absolutely didn't believe it, and he also said that Folangji was a small country with few people and only a small country.
"Old Master, can the ships of the Ming Dynasty travel tens of thousands of miles from the distant west to the Ming Dynasty?" Zhu Qiyu asked him.
"It can be done in Zheng He's time."
Hu Bi's face was filled with glory: "When Zheng He sailed to the Western Ocean, the treasure ships scared the kings out of their wits. The people along the coast all kowtowed to the treasure ships, thinking they were gods."
"Old Master, has Zheng He arrived in Western Thailand?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
Hu Hui froze: "That, that's because the cargo is already full and we can't continue the voyage. There is no need to go that far."
Zhu Qiyu was still laughing: "Zheng He is indeed capable, but old master, can he still do it in this era?"
Hu Bi stopped talking and slowly lowered his head.
It really can't be done anymore. The former treasure ship has been eroded and can no longer sail far. During the Zhengtong years, it once sailed to the Western Ocean, but it ended in vain after not going very far.
He still said stubbornly: "That Fo Langji's firearms are not as good as those of the Ming Dynasty."
"It just so happened that Nayamas was castrated and stayed in the palace to serve him."
"If the old lady doesn't believe it, you can ask him to ask."
Zhu Qiyu sighed: "Old Master, you came from the Yongle Dynasty. You have seen the glorious Ming Dynasty, and you feel proud in your heart."
"But today is different from the past. Daming firearms have not improved for decades. The fire blunderbuss in the warehouse were still made in the Yongle Dynasty."
"But these Folangji people are traveling around the world. Can you tell me, are they at the peak of their national power?"
Hu Xi recognized this.
Why was Zheng He able to make seven voyages to the West? Isn't it because the Ming Dynasty's national power was at its peak and the court was willing to pay huge voyage expenses?
"And Folangji is just a small country."
Zhu Qiyu asked: "Why do they support the fleet's ocean voyage?"
Hu Bi was stunned.
It’s really scary to think about it.
Doesn't it mean that the national power of Fo Langji has surpassed that of Yongle Dynasty?
In fact, Zhu Qiyu secretly changed the concept. What was the scale of Zheng He's voyages to the West? What is the size of the Forron fleet?
Moreover, the Falangji people are free to go to sea, not the royal family to provide funds, troops, money and food to go to sea, it is not of the same nature at all.
Before Franco discovered American silver, he was not necessarily the number one in the world.
But after discovering American silver, Franchi became number one in the world and could buy the world with money.
We must occupy America as soon as possible. Even if we cannot take it all, we must share it equally with the Francois, at least get a share of the benefits.
"So I want to fight this battle and seize the firearms on their ship."
"Send it to the Ordnance Bureau and ask it to be copied."
"But I have to consider how to prevent the Folangji from retaliating."
Zhu Qiyu expressed his worries.
Hu Bi was still immersed in the shock of Fo Langji's power.
After a long time, he sighed, his eyes as sharp as a knife: "Your Majesty, although Fo Langji is thousands of miles away from the Ming Dynasty, we must be on guard. His country is like the Meng Yuan, attacking from west to east, and the consequences will be unimaginable. .”
Hu Hui is a typical land hegemon.
The former Emperor Yongle also had the idea of expedition to the west. However, Mobei is not destroyed, how can he conquer the west?
So he subconsciously thought that the Fo Langji people might use their powerful force to conquer the east.
Then Daming will be in danger.
In fact, times have changed, and concepts should also change.
Fo Langji only wanted to be the overlord of the sea and had little interest in being the overlord of the land.
Zhu Qiyu made a mistake and sighed: "That's right, old master. When the Timur Khanate was strong, it focused on conquering the east. If a new overlord appears on the grassland or in the west, it will be like Genghis Khan. Then the Ming Dynasty will never have peace."
Hu Xi actually nodded in agreement.
He used to think that Folangji was a weak country with a small territory and few people, but now it has become his imaginary enemy.
"Your Majesty, please send someone to envoy Fo Langji!"
"Bring back books from Fo Lang Ji and invite Dr. Fo Lang Ji Jingyi to learn from Fo Lang Ji."
"Your Majesty, please ask Hanlin to learn the language of Folangji, translate the articles, eliminate the unnecessary and retain the essential, and use the essence for the Ming Dynasty."
Hu Hui knelt on the ground, his eyes flickering: "This is not enough. Fo Lang's powerful function must be closely related to the military. We simply move their weapons to the Ming Dynasty."
"We will use whatever firearms they use!"
"Whatever horse they ride, we buy the horse breed and ride whatever horse they ride."
"What kind of armor they wear, we can also imitate it!"
"Old minister, I ask your majesty to fight this battle!"
"Don't be afraid of Fo Langji's revenge afterwards. At the worst, you can just spend some money to avoid disaster and repair the relationship. You must get Fo Langji's firearm."
"The Ming Dynasty cannot be worse than any other country!"
Hu Hui made a loud noise.
Zhu Qiyu was dumbfounded. Is this still the same Hu Hui who protected himself wisely in the court?
Definitely the most powerful minister in the Jingtai Dynasty.
Think of Fo Langji as an imaginary enemy, and then shout to kill him?
Where is your morality? What about morality in the scriptures? Forgot everything?
Is this still a scholar-official?
In Zhu Qiyu's inherent impression, scholar-bureaucrats were pedantic, ignorant, and ignorant, but Hu Hui taught him a vivid lesson: what kind of king there is, what kind of courtiers there are.
It turns out that the root lies with the emperor.
"What the old master said is absolutely true, beat him!"
“We’ll think about the aftermath later.”
Zhu Qiyu personally helped him up: "The greatness of the Ming Dynasty lies in inclusiveness. We can learn from others' strong things, eliminate our weaknesses, and constantly improve ourselves. This is the real Han people!"
Hu Hui said generously: "Your Majesty's words are very true. The Han people are great only if they are tolerant!"
"May I ask where the Xiongnu, Xianbei and Qiang Jiedi are now?"
"In fact, they have all been assimilated into Han Chinese!"
"Han people can tolerate race and culture."
"The reason why Confucianism endures is because in any era, there will be new annotations on the classics. The classics of saints are applicable to any era, so saints are saints."
"Chinese is even more all-encompassing. Many of the words used today did not exist in the Tang and Song Dynasties. However, the Chinese will continue to create new Chinese characters and use new combinations to form different meanings. This is why the Chinese language will last forever and will never change. Reason for being replaced.”
"So, I would like to invite your Majesty to learn Fo Lang Ji."
"Learn Fo Langji and then destroy Fo Langji. Everything about Fo Langji will become my Ming Dynasty's."
"The Ming Dynasty is the most powerful country in the world!"
"The Han people are the best ethnic group in the world!"
Originally, Hu Hui’s words were full of national pride and honor.
I just added the last sentence. Isn't it too shameless to destroy others after learning from them?
However, the current Hu Hui is a Hu Hui that Zhu Qiyu has never seen before.
Hu Hui seemed to notice the emperor's eyes and chuckled: "Your Majesty, who has never been young?"
"When I was young, I traveled the world with my sword."
"Isn't it full of passion?"
"However, I am in a high position and my words can affect thousands of living beings, so I don't dare to be presumptuous, let alone speak casually."
"Your Majesty, you have great talents and strategies. How could I, an old minister, not have ambitions?"
"If you want to be an emperor for eternity, don't you want to join the Confucian Temple?"
"Your Majesty said that you and I should support each other."
"I hope that when your majesty supports my spirit, you can say: Hu Ming can also rival Fang Du."
Hu Hui's eyes were soft.
He promised to protect the emperor's life, then he would sharpen the rusty sword, unsheath the dragon, and cut the world with the sword, just like he is now.
The unsheathed sword!
The sword dotted with cold stars!
Zhu Qiyu helped Hu Hui up with his own hands: "Old Master, I will work with you as emperor and ministers. As Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, you must be Fang Xuanling or Du Ruhui, and your name will go down in history!"
Hu Xi also wants to thank you.
Zhu Qiyu refused and pulled him: "Old Master, you must pay attention to your health. You are the Dinghai Shenzhen of the Ming Dynasty. I can really make the decision on many things in the court, but after all, I lack some firepower. Please support me, Old Master, as I go further." A long way.”
Hu Xi is eighty this year, how many more tomorrows are there?
"Old ministers will help Your Majesty!" Hu Xi choked with sobs.
"After this battle, Mr. Fo Lang came to ask for an explanation. How should the court respond?" Zhu Qiyu asked him to sit down and continued to talk about the aftermath.
Hu Hui's cloudy old eyes shined with light: "His Majesty previously ordered Chen Wang and Weng Xin to build shipyards in Lianzhou Prefecture and Leizhou Prefecture."
"Simply expand the scale, build Guangxi Shipyard and Guangdong Shipyard, build big ships, and let them accumulate wood to build treasure ships."
"If the Fo Langji people bring troops to fight, we will pay compensation. If the worst happens, we will give in. When the Ming Dynasty's new ships are built and equipped with new artillery, then we will fight."
Hu Xi sneered: "If you hit Fo Langji, please beg for mercy and pay us compensation, but Ming Dynasty does not value immediate interests."
"Take this opportunity to send an envoy to Folangji, and the two countries will have good relations and learn from Folangji's excellent culture and weapons."
"If you have learned everything, then there is no need for the master to exist."
"A small country dares to compete with the sun and the moon? How ridiculous!"
Peace is created.
This is true.
The Folangji is indeed powerful now, but how many ships can it send across the ocean? How many soldiers? They all feel bad if one of them dies.
Therefore, if Ming gave in, Fo Langji would naturally show his favor.
When Daming had room to protect himself, he turned over the table and beat them until they called them daddy.
Even more cruelly, Hu Hui wanted to destroy his country directly and shock the whole country.
Hu Hui saw clearly: "To make friends from far away and attack at close range, Fo Langji is too far away from the Ming Dynasty after all. We can make friends and learn from each other. The biggest enemy in front of us is Mobei after all."
"With the imitation of new firearms, the Ming Dynasty will be able to shock Mobei."
Hu Hui thought deeply.
Zhu Qiyu praised: "The old master will do what the old master says when he wants to build a country."
"There is no shame in admitting defeat for the time being. The compensation will come from internal funds. I can also issue an edict to sin on myself. I will bear the humiliation."
"The top priority is to get Fo Langji's firearm and bring it back to the Ming Dynasty to imitate it."
"If the imitation is successful, we will have a better chance of winning in the attack on Mobei."
Zhu Qiyu was in a good mood and chatted for a few more words before sending Hu Hui out of the palace in an imperial chariot.
Then proceed with the memorial.
"Feng Xiao, candidates taking the Chunwei exams are arriving in Beijing one after another, and the guild hall has to accept guests on a large scale. These people are all wealthy people. I'm embarrassed if they don't make a lot of money."
Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "Let the club launch something new, and we must pay attention to seizing the hot spots. Making money can't be so rigid."
Feng Xiao was lying on the ground, but he knew that the emperor would not remember this because of a small amount of money.
"Let the guild hall find out the details of these candidates."
Zhu Qiyu said calmly: "Before releasing the list, I want to see all the information."
"My slave obeys the order!" Feng Xiao sent someone to convey the order.
Zhu Qiyu saw the memorial written by Peng Shi, the chief envoy of Zhejiang Province.
"Oh, this Nan Kong is interesting. I forced the Kong family to move, and I allowed them to talk. He said he had no objection."
"I ordered Nankong to move out a few branches, and Nankong did it obediently."
"I thought he was a filial person."
"But you don't want to write poems to ridicule me behind my back, pretending that I am uneducated? Can't you read a few acid poems?"
Zhu Qiyu suddenly stopped smiling: "Proclaim Kong Gong sincerely comes to Beijing for pilgrimage."
"The Northern Sect changed Yan Shenggong to King Wenxuan. Is the Southern Sect also coveting this title?"
Zhu Qiyu lost his voice.
But everyone in Qianqing Palace was trembling.
"Bring King Wenxuan here."
Feng Xiao quickly went to deliver the order.
It's time for Kong Hongxu to go to Gaizhou. Before leaving, he will discuss with Kong Hongxu how many Dingkou are needed in Siping City and how many people will be Kong's slaves. They must be determined.
A line is drawn and no one is allowed to cross it.
Once the bottom line is crossed, you can't just say no to killing.
"This Peng Shi is trying to please me." Zhu Qiyu sneered. He had indeed thought about using Peng Shi before, but the time he was reprimanded was too short to temper him.
Otherwise, if future ministers follow his example, will they still respect the emperor?
Now that you've been reprimanded, go somewhere and stay there for a few years.
Let me see what you are capable of.
"Let the king return to the palace." Zhu Qiyu said again.
During this period, Wang Fu reorganized the General Administration Department and did it in an orderly manner, which can be reused.
He then dealt with the memorial.
The more he dealt with it, the more upset he became. There were more than a hundred memorials claiming that he had been affected by the disaster. This year's situation was really bad.
"Tell the military aircraft department that after severe drought and floods, we must be careful about the plague!"
"The imperial doctor who was sent out from the imperial hospital was sent back to prison again?"
"Release them all and let them go to the public to publicize the prevention of epidemics."
"There must be no more trouble in Gyeonggi!"
Zhu Qiyu put down the memorial and paced back and forth in the hall.
It started to rain again outside.
His mood was changing.
At this time, King Wenxuan came into the palace to pay his respects.
Today he was wearing the crown robe of a prince and saluted with the dignity of a prince.
"No need to be polite."
Zhu Qiyu stopped and returned to his seat: "King Wenxuan, although there is a war in Liaodong, we can't reach Gaizhou. It just so happens that Liang Yue is about to lead his army out of Beijing, and you will go with the army."
Known as the King of Wenxuan, Kong Hongxu's little face twisted into a ball.
People don’t want this king!
Now the scholars in Gyeonggi are scolding him!
He scolded him for giving up his ancestors for the sake of his title!
Especially in spring, when all the students from all over the world gather in the capital, the words of those literati can make you infamy for eternity.
Obviously, Kong Hongxu has been notorious for thousands of years.
However, the emperor's pressure has dropped sharply, and fewer and fewer people have written poems to criticize him recently. They are all scolding King Wenxuan and the Empress Dowager Fusi for interfering in politics.
Kong Hongxu, the scapegoat, should be considered a coward.
Knowing that he was leaving the capital, Kong Hongxu was in a happy mood.
In the capital, his wife relied on the emperor's favor to beat and scold him. There was no good flesh on his body, he was pinched, beaten, and dripped with wax...
That Xiang just bullies Toothpick, but he actually likes violence...
The wax oil dripped on the body...
Kong Hongxu shuddered. When I leave the capital, I will see how I will deal with you!
"King Wenxuan, how many Dingkou are needed in Siping City?" Zhu Qiyu asked directly.
"this……"
Kong Hongxu didn't dare to act vainly.
As long as he said no, the emperor would immediately agree, just because he didn't want to give it.
"Of course the more the better."
"You are greedy. Give me a specific number and I will immigrate there at my discretion."
Since you want to use the Kong family, you have to give benefits, otherwise why would they work for you?
"Your Majesty, the population of Qufu exceeds 500,000. We don't need too many ministers. We only need 200,000 households."
Kong Hongxu was indeed not as open-mouthed as a lion, and he was considerate of the emperor's painstaking efforts.
Qufu is not as small as later generations. How can it have less land to support the saint's family?
However, he secretly changed the concept and replaced "person" with "user".
Two hundred thousand households, even if there were three people in a family, that would be 600,000 people. But in this era, if there were about five people in a household, that would be over a million people!
Why does the Kong family need so many people? Can Siping City support that many people?
I'm afraid there are not so many people in Liaodong!
Can't afford it.
"Two hundred thousand households is really not that many."
Zhu Qiyu nodded slightly: "Move some from Shandong, some from Beizhili, and some from Liaodong, so we can make up a hundred thousand households."
"Luo Qi and Cheng Xin have arrived in Seoul."
"I will order North Korea to move 30,000 households into Siping City."
"Let the Jurchens, Uliangha, and Tatars move in in batches and try to gather 200,000 households."
Zhu Qiyu's tone softened: "King Wenxuan, I am very pleased that you can understand my painstaking efforts. You have indeed grown up and understand my good intentions."
"Don't worry, I won't treat you badly. I will give you ten thousand slaves of the Kong family."
"In the future, immigrants moving out of North Korea will be given priority in Siping City."
"what do you think?"
Kong Hongxu didn't even expect that the emperor would really give him 200,000 households.
That’s a population of one million!
What is the population of Ming Dynasty? There are only more than 50 million people registered, and if the number of slaves and black households doubles, the number will only be 10 million at most.
The emperor gave him one million in one breath, and he also had to bear the rations for one million people. The pressure on water transportation was huge.
but.
Then he realized that the emperor gave him so many penises just to devour slave Gandusi!
So immigrate there in advance and adapt to the climate.
When the time is right, they will send troops out of Liaodong, swallow up Nuergandusi, and then spread these 200,000 households to Nuergandusi.
That's right!
Kong Hongxu was right, I just want to devour Nuergandusi and spread these people to Nuergandusi.
We must definitely give the Kong family 200,000 households!
But you, Kong Hongxu, can secretly change the concept, but I can’t?
I will give you men, no women, no children, that is 200,000 men.
But this is still 200,000 households.
Not to mention 200,000 people, if you want 500,000 people, I can make it for you!
There are so many criminals in the world, and there are so many bandits who dominate the mountains. They are all sent to Liaodong. I won't feel sorry for them even if they freeze to death.
Why can't you give it?
Besides, how many people are there in Liaodong Dusi?
If you want 200,000 households at one go, how will you support them? Go eat shit?
Can food be grown in Siping?
I didn't even think about it. The south was already under huge pressure to supply water transportation to the capital. If we provide another water transportation to Liaodong, it would directly cause the collapse of the Ming Dynasty!
However, it will be different when it comes to promoting rice, potatoes, and sweet potatoes.
Liaodong is a treasure land, a treasure land where food can be grown!
It cannot be all men. It is best to move 30,000 women from North Korea.
If two hundred thousand men were guarding a city, something would happen.
"I thank Your Majesty for your grace!" Kong Hongxu said happily.
"So you are going to Gaizhou and make it clear to your Kong clan boss that I am doing it for your own good." Zhu Qiyu said with a smile.
Kong Hongxu had ulterior motives and thought he had taken advantage.
He quickly kowtowed and thanked him: "Wei Chen must convince the clan elders."
"What do you think of Duke Yansheng's title?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
Kong Hongxu knew the emperor's deep intention.
The emperor wanted to grant Nankong a title.
This is not okay, Beikong is the authentic lineage, Nankong must not be allowed to rise, it must be suppressed.
"Your Majesty, please abolish this title. This is the title of our ancestors and cannot be given to others easily." Kong Hongxu was ignorant.
You want to maintain the North Hole.
Can’t I put in place checks and balances?
Kong Hongxu knelt down to the end, but the emperor remained silent.
His heart skipped a beat.
The emperor is angry again!
As long as something doesn't go his way, he'll get angry.
If he gets angry, he will deal with me!
Kong Hongxu wanted to cry.
He knew that as long as he didn't say soft words, the emperor would let him suffer a cerebral hemorrhage.
After waiting for a long time, the emperor made no sound.
"The title is granted by His Majesty, and I don't dare to comment!" Kong Hongxu changed his mind. In order to protect his brain, he gave in.
But Zhu Qiyu was not satisfied.
This world belongs to me, who do you think you are?
Are you worthy of saying this and that?
Even if I grant a dog a title, it's not your turn to point fingers.
"I know I'm wrong, I know I'm wrong!" Kong Hongxu kowtowed in order to move his head.
"No, just get up."
Zhu Qiyu moved his lips: "The title of Duke Yansheng must still be passed on."
"Sage Kong is the sage of China and the ancestor of all people in the world."
"You are the descendants of saints. How can a mere King Wenxuan and a Marquis of Wenchang support the lintel of the Kong family?"
"But the title of Yanshenggong will not be granted for the time being."
"King Wenxuan, I also give you Kong a mission."
Zhu Qiyu stood up slowly and paced back and forth: "There are many literary masters in the houses of the Kong family, with heroic writing styles and prosperous cultural heritage."
"But Siping City is located in Liaodong, a barbarian land."
"So the task I give you as King Wenxuan is to soften the barbarians and turn them into Han."
"I will tell you the truth. After repelling the Karaqin tribe, I will consider embracing Rouwuliangha."
"You don't have to hold on to a title, Mr. Kong, just come out and become an official."
"Be kind and gentle to me."
"Three years, as long as Kong can use it to Chineseize Wuliangha, no matter what method you Kong uses, as long as Wuliangha people can speak Chinese, it will be considered a success."
"I will give you another title to the Kong family, so that you can inherit the Kong family hereditary and retire with the country."
"how?"
Zhu Qiyu wanted to use everything he could in order to Hanize Zhu Hu.
Kong is a pest in the Central Plains.
But if you go to Liaodong, it is a treasure.
Think about it, there are nearly 100,000 people in the Kong clan, all of whom are scholars. There is no shortage of scholars in the mainland, but there is a shortage in the border areas.
If used in the right direction, there will be no problem in using these 100,000 people to Chineseize the entire Nuergandusi.
Kong Hongxu's eyes lit up: "Does Your Majesty want to grant Duke Yansheng to my veins?"
What are you thinking about?
Duke Yan Sheng should be given to Nan Kong.
You Sinicize Beihu and Nankong to Sinicize Nantu.
There is a clear division of labor and benefits will be given to everyone.
"Are you so confident that you can Chineseize the Wuliangha people?" Zhu Qiyu wondered.
"Reporting to your majesty, when it comes to running a country and fighting wars, I, the Kong family, are not as good as others, but when it comes to making people study, then other families are not as good as me, the Kong family!"
Kong Hongxu was full of self-confidence. His family's cultural lineage had never been cut off, and his family was a lineage of its own.
Especially when it comes to collecting books, his family is ranked second, and no one dares to be ranked first.
For this move, more than 700 vehicles were used and nearly fifty times were used. It was a lot of work.
Even the emperor was jealous after seeing it.
Fortunately, due to the move, Zhu Qiyu ordered Yu Qian to make a copy and send it to the palace for collection.
The Kong family was so angry that they flew into a rage. More than a hundred old masters took turns to fight, spraying Yu Qian until he wanted to commit suicide, and Yu Qian also smelled bad.
"Your Majesty doesn't know something."
"The Wuliangha people are actually on the verge of sinicization many times."
"It's just that the court has been unwilling to allow it to be included."
"Now that His Majesty has made up his mind, I will naturally find a way to quickly Chineseize the Wuliangha people."
"Wei Chen also knows at home that His Majesty has ordered one hundred characters to be compiled. As long as the Hu people learn these one hundred characters, they are Han people."
"So Wei Chen has this confidence."
Kong Hongxu talked eloquently.
Zhu Qiyu hasn't discovered yet, does the Kong family have such a wonderful use?
"good!"
"King Wenxuan, I grant you more than just a title."
"Moreover, you are allowed to be rich and prosperous for generations to come!"
"As long as you convert Wuliangha into Han Dynasty for me, you will be the heroes of the Ming Dynasty, and I will no longer treat the Kong family differently."
Zhu Qiyu told the truth.
I was jealous of the Kong family's wealth before.
Your family has not contributed to the Ming Dynasty, so why should you enjoy the wealth that is admired by all people?
But it's different now.
As long as your family is useful, the people in the world will not be able to explain why it will support your family's wealth. They will only raise their hands to support it.
"I thank Your Majesty for your kindness!" Kong Hongxu quickly kowtowed.
Next, we had a great conversation.
Kong Hongxu himself was confused. He actually had a happy conversation with the emperor?
The emperor has always been biased against Kong, and he would intimidate and use soft violence against him every day. However, he did not expect that he and the emperor would now become friends.
Kong Hongxu understood a little bit.
What the emperor needs is capable people. He is friendly to all capable people and can talk happily with them.
His sarcastic remarks are directed at incompetent people.
So that’s it!
What the emperor wanted most was to recover Nuergandusi and convert Mobei into Han Dynasty.
If you look at it this way, the Kong family can not only produce titles, but also produce a large number of civil servants!
Isn’t the Kong family going to prosper again?
"Kong Qing, as long as the Kong family can transform the foreign race into Chinese for me, I will grant you a thousand years of wealth."
"I won't even hesitate to give you another king!"
"As many people from your Kong family are willing to become officials, I will agree to it."
"You can be a member of a thousand-year-old family, no matter what!"
Zhu Qiyu really respects talents.
It made Kong Hongxu's blood boil when he talked about it, and he was full of passion when he left.
Even Feng Xiao was stunned. The emperor had always had a strong opinion against the Kong family, so why did he actually promise the Kong family a prince after they had such a good conversation today!
Are there any pitfalls?
"Can't see through?"
Zhu Qiyu tilted his head and looked at him: "The Kong family was useless before, I hated them;"
"Now that the Kong family can serve the Ming Dynasty, I will naturally treat them favorably."
"I treat everyone in the world the same way. I will treat those who are useful and treat them lightly."
"I don't care how others scold me."
"I want Daming to become strong, strong, and stronger!"
Zhu Qiyu's eyes were burning: "As long as Daming can become stronger, who can use it for me, I will be rich!"
"The slave admires the emperor as the heart of Daming." Feng Xiao knelt down and hoeed.
"I am an emperor. No matter how much it is for Daming, it should be."
Zhu Qiyu's active body and asked, "Wang Fu can get it?"
"Back to the emperor, waiting for the door."
"Come in quickly."
During the talk, Wang Fu entered the hall to worship.
"Wang Fu, you have done well recently."
Zhu Qiyu asked him to get up, and laughed: "I plan to promote you to enter the cabinet, and the political ambassador is temporarily together."
"Well, there are fewer and fewer people in the DPRK."
"I can only do this first. When there is a suitable general government, you can enter the cabinet directly."
Wang Fu was overjoyed.
During this time, he kept doing his head to do his own business.
He knew that he had insufficient qualifications, and once worshiped the king of Mobe in the Walong Camp, and naturally caused the emperor's doubt.
Therefore, after the emperor reused him, he chose to do his own career and manages the General Administration of Political Affairs.
He doesn't want to have merit, just ask for nothing.
As a result, everything he did, the emperor looked at it, and this time he promoted him to enter the cabinet, that is, when someone could take over him, he officially entered the cabinet.
"Wang Fu, your ability, I saw it."
"You enter the roof of Yu Shan."
"I hope you will persist."
"You can be recommended in your heart?"
Zhu Qiyu raised the authority of the General Secretary of the Political Department and gradually recovered the use of Taizu.
But Wang Fu was not deeply found in the DPRK.
He asked Wang Fu to recommend talents, because he was building a team for Wang Fu, and he was giving him a chance.
"Back to His Majesty, Weichen believes that Wang Yan and Yao Yan have qualifications and ability to succeed in general." Wang Fu carefully recommended.
Both of them are no stranger.
Really capable.
But one of the names and reputation, one is Chen Xun's dead party.
How can I use it?
Wang Fu will pick people and have abilities, but they are all ride.
Is he hinting?
"Let Yao Yan follow the political envoy, Wang Yan enters the cabinet." Zhu Qiyu said faintly.
Wang Fu's eyes widened.
His words are used like this? A little bit, the emperor listened?
Didn't doubt that he was private?
"Surprised?"
"As long as those who have the ability, I will enable and reuse it."
"Even if some people were not loyal to me."
"I can bear it all."
"However, persuading them to do it, and who should know who the authority is given to them, you must know gratitude in your heart."
"I am exhausted, you can bring them with words."
Wang Fu was lying on the ground and kept his head: "Wechen knows that he is grateful to His Majesty, and his Majesty is the monarch of Wei Chen, the father of filial piety, is the nature of Wei Chen, thanks to His Majesty!"
He also understood that the emperor was building a team for him.
Let him enter the Pavilion, not to be lonely.
He was moved by this painting.
"After entering the cabinet, do good deeds with peace of mind and play for Daming."
Zhu Qiyu did not listen to his loyalty.
No matter what your civilians say, I don't believe it.
Zhu Youzheng, who believes you most, died early?
I only believe in the factory guard, and the factory guard is my eyes.
Sending Wang Fu and said to Feng Xiao: "Let Zheng Youyi speed up, establish a good Western plant, and Shu Liang will leave Beijing."
Shu Liang wants to sit in Shanxi, and cannot take time in Beijing.
"My slave obeys the order!" Feng Xiao kowtowed.
Zhu Qiyu continued to handle the chapter.
Apologize to a book friend. There was a book friend who said that there was no Forang machine gun during the Jingtai period. I also touched him. As a result, Chafo Lang's information was now known that it was the author's wrong. I don't know if he has seen this chapter. If you see it, I hope to see the author's apology. In the future, the author will not have a bar, half a bottle blind, and the clown is just himself! I apologize again, I hope he can see this chapter!
(End of chapter)
