"colonial!"
It is in the Zhongji Hall of the Ming Dynasty that the Han family rules the nine states of the Central Plains.
For the first time, a word rang out that could make future generations angry.
Only this time, Daming will become the master of this word!
Zhu Yunxi looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with a firm look in his eyes.
"My grandson thinks that Emperor Qin ruled the nine states, and even the Han Dynasty, and the ancestors of the Tang Dynasty and Song Dynasty. They all used the land of the Central Plains and the Weijia Sea to dominate the four directions and conquer all nations to come to court."
This is the glory of the Han family and a glorious moment that belongs to the Han family in the Central Plains for thousands of years.
The sound emanating from the Central Plains can make the four seas sleep dormant, and can make all nations change their orders day by day.
"However, if our country only survives for a few hundred years, our Central Plains will be plunged into war and the people will be displaced. What is the reason for this?"
“It’s all caused by land loss!”
Whenever a new dynasty is established after a great chaos, the population is scarce and the land is relatively rich.
At this time, as long as any court implements good governance and has land for those who till the land, it will naturally usher in a prosperous era.
As the population increases, the dynasty ages, corruption becomes rampant, rentier groups emerge, and the population increases, the burden on the people will become heavier.
Once faced with natural or man-made disasters, people would sell their land and even their children and become refugees or tenants.
Land resources are further concentrated in the hands of a few people, and the government's fiscal and taxation will become increasingly difficult.
Coupled with the fact that traitors are in charge of the country, foreign barbarians are always coveting the fertile land of the Central Plains.
At that time, with just one fuse, the Central Plains will fall into the flames of war again.
This is like a curse that has been plaguing the successive dynasties in the land of Kyushu in the Central Plains and has never been able to be solved for thousands of years.
It's like a stubborn disease, rooted in this hard-working nation!
Zhu Yunxi's tone softened slightly: "To solve these problems, the imperial court needs to guide the world and look to places outside the region."
"Grandpa and father said before that if our Ming Dynasty wants to conquer southern Xinjiang, we will definitely invest a large army and spend a lot of money."
"If our Ming Dynasty takes the colonial policy as a long-term national policy, slowly moves the border people to the bordering areas, like cannibalization, and supplements it with border officers and soldiers to protect it, then our Ming Dynasty's territory will be endless!"
"As long as this is the case, the noble generals in the court and the wealthy businessmen in the world can see that there is a profit to be made. The court only needs to relax the conditions and exempt the newly levied land from taxes, and then it can get countless troops out of thin air and open up the territory for our Ming Dynasty."
This is what the British and the countless small countries in Europe did in later generations, and thus became the great powers that swept the world.
At that time, they only needed to sink a ship and dock it on the coast, and the goodwill of the people of the Central Plains would allow them to dock and live there.
Slowly, their population increased.
In the end, it became a true state within a state.
In Tianzhu, which is separated by a mountain, they used the method of using barbarians to control barbarians.
Finally, the shining crown was cast.
What he said is indeed a developmental guiding ideology.
For a while, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao were lost in thought.
After a while, Zhu Biao was the first to speak: "If we look at southern Xinjiang and the entire country fights against them, our Ming Dynasty will probably have to raise a large army to deal with it, which will be a huge waste of money."
"Unite vertically and horizontally, and use barbarism to rule barbarism!" Zhu Yunxi responded in a deep voice: "In addition to the millions of powerful troops in our Ming Dynasty, we also have the sharp tongues of the Gonggun princes in the court. All we have to do is find out the opponent's context and use it to our advantage. If you allow it, you can divide the other party's interior."
"What if our Ming colonizers...colonizers have evil intentions and go against the grain in an attempt to be independent?" Zhu Biao's eyes flickered and he asked again.
Zhu Yunxi replied: "If I, the prince of the Ming Dynasty clan, are the vassal king of the colonial lands outside the territory, and with the blood of my Zhu family to control the colonial lands forever, and with the support of the nobles, officials, and people of the Ming Dynasty in the colonization, we can intimidate the enemy." heart of."
"What if the vassal king gathers troops, secretly strengthens himself, threatens the capital, and raises troops to rebel?"
In the Zhongji Hall, there was silence as Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly spoke.
Zhu Biao blinked, forgetting to glance at the old man who suddenly spoke, and looked worriedly at Zhu Yunxi, who had spoken out about colonization today.
Zhu Yunxi's eyes were calm and unchanging, and he responded softly: "We, the Zhu family, have no distinction between each other! If the descendants of the future generations are unworthy, even if they uphold the central position and sit in the central government, they will be in danger of harming all the people in the world. And there are talents in the clan who should be able to do good to the world. For the sake of all the people. If this were not the case, how could our Ming Dynasty clan rebel against each other if we are very close to each other?"
The meat rotted in a pot.
Replace the Zhu family with the Zhu family?
Zhu Yuanzhang pondered for a moment and did not speak again.
This was somewhat biased in line with his idea of inheriting the throne, but it spoke to the bottom of his heart.
Ask yourself, if the future descendants of the co-lords of the Ming Dynasty in the Central Plains are fatuous and incompetent, and a wise king is born in the clan for the sake of the people of the world, Zhu Yuanzhang can no longer guarantee that he will stick to his own rules.
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and looked at Zhu Yunxi.
He could no longer understand this imperial grandson.
Is this a blessing or a curse for the Ming Dynasty?
"you……"
Zhu Yuanzhang spoke softly, but smiled and shook his head.
Zhu Biao called softly from one side: "Father?"
Zhu Yuanzhang still shook his head: "That's all, children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. You should learn to make a charter. We have to take a closer look."
…
"Do you know what the consequences will be if you say what you say today?"
On the palace road from Zhongji Hall to East Palace.
Zhu Biao walked in front with his hands behind his back, his steps bumpy due to his legs and feet.
Zhu Yunxi, who was following behind, whispered back: "I know."
Zhu Biao sighed: "Recently...I always feel..."
He was a little hesitant to say it, a little reluctant to say it.
Zhu Yunxi smiled: "Father, do you think your son is no longer like his son?"
Zhu Biao smiled, stopped, turned around and looked at Zhu Yunxi who stopped with a frown.
"Do you miss your mother-in-law?"
Zhu Yunxi was slightly stunned. He thought of many possibilities, but he did not expect that Zhu Biao would ask about this.
He nodded blankly: "I still miss you, brother..."
Zhu Biao had a sad face: "Xiongying is a good boy, just like you, but more like me. As for you...sometimes you are like my father, and sometimes..."
"I don't want my father to work so hard all day anymore!"
Zhu Yunxi raised his head and looked at Zhu Biao's head of slightly white hair.
Zhu Biao opened his mouth, and after a long time, he glared at Zhu Yunxi: "I still have work to do, so you don't need to worry about sharing my worries!"
Zhu Yunxi also smiled at the right time: "I know that my father will live a long life."
Zhu Biao was noncommittal: "I have returned to the palace and written the memorial. Let me read it first, and then submit it to your grandpa. From now on, no matter what happens to this matter, you must not make any unreasonable comments. A gentleman should uphold his integrity. The clan should be like this."
Zhu Yunxi nodded and suddenly asked: "Does father also agree with my son's theory of colonization today?"
Zhu Biao looked at Zhu Yunxi.
Immediately he reached out his hand and tapped Zhu Yunxi on the head.
"Still so impatient!"
