"Could it be that powerful women are causing chaos in this country?" Lao Zhu said excitedly.
"It's even more exaggerated than that. Although Ashikaga Takauji of the Japanese country has great power, at least he still respects the emperor."
"Goryeo, on the other hand, was a complete military coup and a change of dynasty!"
"Thirty years later, a Goryeo general named Li Chenggui mutinied in front of the army and returned to the Goryeo royal city to implement 'military remonstrance.'"
"And in the end, the Wang family of Goryeo was completely banned and a new imperial court was established."
"Li Chenggui?" Lao Zhu felt that the name sounded familiar.
"Oh! Isn't he the Goryeo general who criticized our Ming Dynasty Li Ting for sweeping holes? Earlier, we were still thinking that Goryeo actually had such courageous heroes."
"Sure enough, we will do great things after that!"
"No matter how great your career is, you are just a traitor." Zhu Su said with a smile. "I, the Ming Dynasty, am the leader of the Goryeo clan. If I raise my troops to avenge the King of Goryeo, the people of Goryeo will already admire me as the king of the Central Plains. How can I not eat pots of pulp to welcome my king's master?"
"It makes sense, it makes sense!" Lao Zhu laughed loudly, with a face that should be honest and honest, but his smile was extremely evil.
"Even thirty years is too long. It's better to give him a push from behind and make him act faster!"
Zhu Su smiled and did not interrupt. Lao Zhu doesn't need his advice on this kind of thing, he just needs to put this opportunity in Lao Zhu's hands.
The faster you act, the more mistakes you make, and the Ming Dynasty has more loopholes... Lao Zhu knows more about these political intrigues than he does.
"Then there is Annan. The situation is similar to that of Goryeo. In a few years, the powerful minister surnamed Hu will replace the Annan royal family."
"The current Chen royal family in Annan has lasted for a long time and has reached its final stage. There are many wealthy families in the country, and the government is corrupt."
"If there is a slight disturbance, the day will change in an instant."
"Oh, you said before that when Lao Si was in power, County Annan saw this opportunity, right?" Lao Zhu said. He was familiar with everything Zhu Su said about the history of the Ming Dynasty and chewed it over and over again. He naturally knew about Zhu Di's capture of Annan and the establishment of counties during the Yongle period, but his final failure.
"Yes. However, during the Yongle period, our Ming Dynasty actually had no righteous intentions. The only heir of the royal family surnamed Chen was also poisoned. Therefore, although Annan was temporarily designated as Jiaozhi, it could not achieve long-term peace and stability."
"The civil unrest here continues, which eventually became a burden to the Ming Dynasty, and I had to give up voluntarily..."
"That's natural. Annan has been a country for a long time, and it will inevitably encounter many obstacles if it is suppressed by force." Lao Zhu said. "The Fourth took action at that time, but it was still too late after all."
"Let's start now, it's neither too early nor too late!"
The Tian family father and son looked at each other and laughed in tacit understanding.
"In this way, these three places were not disturbed earlier or later. However, they were turbulent almost at the same time during the Ming Dynasty. It is true that God gave me the place where the Ming Dynasty established the vassal state!" Lao Zhu looked at it The three countries of Japan, Goryeo, and Annam on the map have regarded it as their own territory, with expressions as salivating as a tiger looking at three pieces of plump meat.
But thinking about the current situation of Ming Dynasty, I can't help but sigh. "It's just that now, our Ming Dynasty is also in a state of chaos. I wonder if we can seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity..."
….
"Are you worried that the Ming Dynasty's national strength will not be restored in time?" Zhu Su said.
"Isn't that right? The Northern Yuan Dynasty has been raging for a long time. Compared with the Song Dynasty, every household in the world is no better than one in ten. For this reason alone, if you want to cultivate your vitality, it will not happen overnight." Lao Zhu said. "But we can't rush this matter, we can only take care of it slowly. Although we are the emperor, we can't decree that a lot of big fat boys will pop up in our Ming Dynasty right away..."
"Uh..." Zhu Suxin said there was nothing wrong with that. Even if the country is peaceful and the people are working hard to create humans, it will still take at least ten years before these children grow up!
"And our Ming Dynasty is actually just an outside glory! These days when we are emperor, we are not as comfortable as when we were just a mere king of Wu!" Lao Zhu simply poured bitter water in front of Zhu Su.
"This territory is so big that everything can happen! Today we need to provide disaster relief, tomorrow we need to build rivers, and the day after tomorrow we need to
Damn Bei Yuan is attacking again. Of the large amounts of discounts we approve every day, 99% of them come to us to ask for money. "
"My dear mother, I still want to ask them for money! Everyone has to worry about me, but we, the emperor, have to do this work for them!" Lao Zhu complained with his beard and eyes wide open. As an emperor, he There are not many people who can show their inner feelings, Queen Ma is one, and Prince Zhu Biao is one.
Today's Zhu Su can also be considered one.
"If our Ming Dynasty doesn't have enough foundation and rashly swallows up these territories, I'm afraid it won't be able to hold on easily."
"Well, you are right." Zhu Su also nodded. "If we want to establish vassal states in these three places, our Ming Dynasty must always remain strong, and we must intimidate the middle and middle schools of other countries for the vassal kings. It will shock three or four generations. When our Chinese kingship penetrates deep into the hearts of the people of that country, that country will The country can completely become the land of China."
"If our Ming Dynasty is weak, even if we take the country, it will not last long. Annan in the Yongle Dynasty is a clear proof."
He lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head again: "Dad, I will introduce you to a beauty. What do you think?"
"Beauty?" Lao Zhu was stunned. Then he showed an expression that was half-smiling, and his eyes revealed evil.
"How old are you, baby, and you want to introduce us to a beauty?"
"If your mother or our sister listens to this, do you think she will teach you a lesson?"
"Cough cough cough..." Zhu Su almost choked on his own saliva. Although Empress Ma showed great kindness to her these days, Zhu Su had not forgotten how when these brothers were messing around in the past, Empress Ma made them kneel down with a cold face.
When Lao Zhu was angry, it was mostly just a violent storm, which would pass after a while.
But if Queen Ma is angry...ahem.
If you don't let her feel that you sincerely admit your mistakes and repent, it will never end.
"I'm not talking about that beauty..." Zhu Su quickly explained. Why did Dong Zhongshu use this statement to arouse the interest of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty? When he used the same statement, Emperor Hongwu had this attitude: "This beauty is an extraordinary beauty. She can enrich the country, enrich the people, and ward off foreigners. Can be safe."
"If used properly, maybe it can help my Ming Dynasty break the three-hundred-year-old curse..."
"Oh?" Lao Zhu became interested. "How can there be such beauties in the world? The more the merrier, then. Tell me, who is this beauty? How can she be so capable?"
Zhu Su was almost stunned, what a waste of time... Lao Zhu's dialect was really down to earth. Is it really okay to use such down-to-earth words at this moment that will definitely go down in history?
After regaining his composure and coughing twice, Zhu Sucai said: "Just like Dong Zhongshu, who presented Confucianism to the beauty, I am also willing to offer to my father a knowledge that will make China increasingly prosperous and powerful."
"This knowledge is called: 'Science!"
