[Not even a year after Emperor Hongxi Zhu Gaochi ascended the throne, he followed the old man to the temple named "Renzong". The person who succeeded the throne was your eldest nephew, Zhu Zhanji. 】
[He is now Emperor Xuande. 】
[The first thing Emperor Xuande did when he came to power was to kill several of his uncles. The rebellion of King Han was quelled by Zhu Zhanji with a snap of his fingers and he made "the best barbecue". King Zhao foresaw the crisis and scattered his wings. Although he was imprisoned for life , but at least one life was saved. 】
[For Emperor Xuande, his only remaining threat is King Qi, who controls a hundred thousand southwest troops, that is, you. 】
[Many generals in the Southwest Army have advised you to make plans early. These generals are all your trusted confidants. They are worried that Emperor Xuande will do something to you, but you are not worried. 】
[In the end, Emperor Xuande did not swing the knife to cut down the feudal vassal to the southwest. First, he was afraid of the 100,000 southwest troops of Prince Qi's Mansion. The national treasury was in deficit and could not withstand too much trouble. The second reason is that once the southwest loses Prince Qi's Mansion, the territory of Annan will be abandoned, and the gain will outweigh the loss. 】
[It doesn't matter to you. 】
[The flintlock muskets developed by the Southwest Academy of Sciences are now being mass-produced on assembly lines, forming a "musket army" of tens of thousands of people. 】
[Under the terrain conditions in the southwest, the combat effectiveness of the Musketeers can be maximized. Even if Zhu Zhanji sends troops to attack, you will not fail him. Whether you can fight all the way to Shuntian Mansion may be a problem, but if you want to defeat The imperial army was easily defeated. 】
[You have no intention of taking over the Central Plains. In the perfect geographical location of the Southwest, if you take over the Central Plains, it will restrict your layout. Your vision has never been limited by the Southwest. The Central Plains cannot satisfy your appetite. You What we want is not the Central Plains, but the world! 】
Zhu Di's eyelids were twitching.
It turned out that King Qi already had the strength to fight against the imperial court at this time.
Using the power of one place to fight against a country was something Zhu Di had also done.
The right time, place, and people combined together, what a great opportunity it is for Zhu Di to successfully enter Jinling City. If he makes a slight mistake or is not lucky enough, he will die without a burial place!
But what Zhu Di is more interested in is that thing...Southwestern Academy of Sciences? Flintlock gun?
What is King Qi doing again? !
[Zhu Zhanji has not taken action, so you can devote more energy to the Southwest Academy of Sciences. 】
[You have invested countless efforts into the Southwest Academy of Sciences and constantly poached people from the south. The academicians of the Academy of Sciences are neither Juren nor Jinshi. They may not be able to read the books of sages, but they know how to develop new firearms and advanced weapons. Technology Products. 】
[You are responsible for providing ideas and general content, and these academicians are responsible for drawing from the gourd and racking their brains to turn the drawings into physical objects. From muskets to flintlock muskets, the Academy of Sciences has initially developed a steam engine under your guidance. 】
【Everything is tending towards good, better, best! 】
[The simulation of Zhu Gaojie’s identity of King Qi ends. 】
Zhu Di: "Oh my god!"
Is this the end?
Who can read this short paragraph?
Knock on your mother!
Get your money back!

Liaodong, Guangning Prefecture
Liu Rong walked into the study room of the mansion and asked outside the door: "Your Majesty, North Korea has sent an envoy to Liaodong to see you. Do you need to refuse?"
A calm voice came from the door: "No, let him come to see me."
"promise."
In the study, Zhu Gaojie looked at Lu Chaoyang beside him with a smile: "What do you think it means when North Korea sends an envoy?"
Lu Chaoyang thought for a while and replied: "Our navy is stationed at Lushunkou, but Liaodong has not moved its troops. Presumably the Li Dynasty is also suspicious. The king of Korea, Li Fangyuan, can't help it anymore and wants to test us. Let’s see what Ming Dynasty is going to do.”
"Yes, that's why we can't refuse the North Korean envoy's invitation." Zhu Gaojie nodded slightly.
"If we refuse their invitation, although we do not reveal the truth to the Li Dynasty, it will indicate that the Ming Dynasty will use troops against the Li Dynasty, making the King of Korea feel more and more threatened and vigilant. The gain outweighs the loss. But if we receive the North Korean envoy, it will Let Li Chao take off his guard, this is our goal."
While the two were talking, the North Korean envoy had also arrived and bowed to Zhu Gaojie.
"On behalf of the King of North Korea, I, the envoy of North Korea, would like to extend my highest respect to the Ming Dynasty. Your Highness, King Qi, may you be blessed!"
"Your Majesty, please rise. If you have anything to say, please tell me." Zhu Gaojie nodded and raised his hand to signal.
The North Korean envoy stood up and said: "I have been ordered by the King of North Korea to come to Liaodong to say hello to the prince. My king has prepared a small gift to offer to the prince to express our country's respect for the prince. I hope His Highness King Qi can accept it."
The deputy envoys behind him brought over two large wooden boxes and opened them. Zhu Gaojie glanced at them. They contained nothing valuable, but some local specialties from the Northeast, such as Korean ginseng and Matsutake mushrooms. Jianzhou Province sends a lot of these gadgets to Prince Qi's Mansion every few months, and the Prince's Mansion's warehouse can hardly hold them.
If Zhu Gaojie read it correctly, among the gifts sent by the King of Joseon, there seemed to be two large jars of kimchi?
These Koreans don't seem to understand the second meaning of Chinese. The "little gift" in Chinese is just a courtesy. Do they really think of it as a thin gift?
You are a king of Joseon, so you only give these things as gifts?
Just make these two jars of pickles, and I will destroy the Li Dynasty for you!
The corner of Zhu Gaojie's mouth twitched slightly, but he still said politely: "I have already felt your country's sincerity."
Well, I really feel it clearly.
Let your King of Korea wash his neck and wait for death!
The North Korean envoy said: "My king heard that the navy of the Ming Dynasty was stationed at Lushunkou in Liaodong. I don't know why?"
Now that it was time to get down to business, Zhu Gaojie had a gentle smile on his face: "The navy at Lushunkou was brought by the king. If the King of Korea minds, I will order the navy at Lushunkou to be transferred now."
[The problem of slow update of new chapters can be solved by
King Xian obviously came to test Ming's attitude and see if Ming really wanted to fight. At this time, the more Zhu Gaojie wanted to get the matter over with, the more suspicious the Korean king became, and the more certain he became that the Ming Dynasty was going to start a war.
And Zhu Gaojie's look like "I'm going to kill you, you bastard" would actually make Li Chao feel at ease. The harder he yelled, the lighter he was hit with his hands.
Deceiving people also requires skills.
This force must be just right. If it continues, it will be a trivial matter to lose the manners of a great country. Zhu Gaojie has never cared about this. The country will be destroyed by the Li Dynasty in a short time, so why does he care about manners? What he cares about is paralyzing Li Chao before the war.
It is obvious that Zhu Gaojie's attitude has been deceived by the North Korean envoy.
"The navy of the Ming Dynasty is a fleet led by Zheng He, the maritime envoy of the Ming Dynasty. It is temporarily reorganized at Lushunkou and will be transferred soon." Zhu Gaojie said, "Their mission is to escort the pilgrims who are coming to the Ming Dynasty to worship. Envoys from various countries have returned to their countries. Why, do you, the King of Korea, want to send these envoys back for the Ming Dynasty?"
The North Korean envoy suddenly understood and said with a wry smile: "If we can serve the Ming Dynasty, our country will naturally be extremely happy, but there is nothing we can do...the sea is far away and our boat masters are beyond their capabilities."
The envoys who came to pay homage to the Ming Dynasty came from all over the world. Where could the Li Dynasty have the strength to escort them?
Most of their boats are small offshore boats. They are afraid that the boat will sink before they get halfway!
"In that case, why bother saying more?"
Zhu Gaojie stood up with a flick of his sleeves and said, "Your envoy will leave on his own, but I will not send you far away."
Knowing that King Qi was expelling people, the North Korean envoy cupped his hands and said, "I dare not let you see me off, so I will leave."
…
After the North Korean envoy left, Lu Chaoyang said with emotion: "Your Majesty is really powerful. In just a few words, he was able to trick the North Korean envoy into applause."
Zhu Gaojie laughed and scolded: "When did you, Lu Chaoyang, learn to flatter you? Stop talking nonsense and let the hawks and dogs under your hands start to move. Li Chao should feel more at ease this time. Our plan in North Korea can start to launch." .”
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, Jinyiwei will never let you down!"
After speaking, Lu Chaoyang looked at the two large boxes of gifts brought by the North Korean envoy and asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to put these things away?"
"What to charge?"
Zhu Gaojie said coldly, "The gift given to me by the King of Joseon will be returned as it is, but it will be returned as a sacrifice to the King of Joseon!"
Poor Atu
