"Your Highness, that Mahamu has murderous intentions today."
In the bright study room of Taisun Mansion, Tian Mai, who had accompanied Zhu Yunxi back from Dongcheng Huitong Hall, frowned and persuaded in a low voice.
Huitong Pavilion is under the jurisdiction of Honglu Temple and is responsible for receiving local officials visiting Beijing and envoys from various countries. To the west of Huitong Hall is Wumanyi, which can also be called Wuman City.
It can be used for envoys who come to the Ming Dynasty to place their goods or conduct transactions with each other.
Zhu Yunxi was holding a document on the situation of the Oara tribe in recent years that he had taken out from the archives. He leaned on the chair and lowered his head to read it.
Seeing that his grandson was silent, Tian Mai patiently waited quietly.
But his eyes were silently looking at the windows around the study.
It is bright and transparent, as if there is no obstruction, but it can block the wind and dust outside outside the window.
The window was glowing with light, allowing him to see the scenery clearly, which made Tian Mai a little curious.
I heard that this was something that Zhang Ergong, the left minister of the Ministry of Industry, made with His Highness Taisun in his spare time.
It's called glass.
Although it is bright and transparent and almost colorless, if you look closely, you can still see that these glasses have some color.
However, such a thing was already priceless in Tian Mai's heart, but it was used like this in Taisun's house.
Ming Dynasty has really undergone too many changes in these years.
Tian Mai sighed silently in his heart.
"Mahamu didn't dare to kill Gu, but he still worried that Gu would be left in Yingtian City forever."
Zhu Yunxi suddenly spoke.
Let Tian Mai, who was still thinking about whether he should take another look at Yingtian City now, wake up if he has free time.
Tian Mai bowed and said in confusion: "He is just a leader of the Wala tribe. Even if he has murderous intentions, he does not dare to take action seriously. However, with such ambitious people like Mahamu, why would your highness..."
"Why not really let him be buried in Yingtian?" Zhu Yunxi put down the document recording the situation of the Wala tribe in his hand, chuckled and looked up at Tian Mai who looked puzzled.
Tian Mai nodded, then immediately bowed his head and said in fear: "Subordinate Meng Lang, you shouldn't speculate about the country."
Zhu Yunxi waved his hand: "As you said, he is just a tribal leader on the grassland. Letting him die in Yingtian will stain the city of Yingtian."
After finishing speaking, Zhu Yunxi looked at Tian Mai casually.
Tian Mai bowed: "I understand."
"I asked Fan Chong to come to Taisun Mansion and told him that I wanted to make a big deal with him."
…
"His Royal Highness Taisun wants to make a big deal with Wei Chen?"
In the hall, Fan Chong, who had just settled down, looked at Tian Mai who had rushed over from Taisun's Mansion with a surprised look on his face.
Compared to Mahamu, Tian Mai preferred the blue-eyed and red-haired Fanchong in front of him.
Just because he brought sweet potatoes with a yield of thirty shi per mu to the Ming Dynasty, Tian Mai felt that he had no reason to dislike this Hongyi man.
Tian Mai nodded with a smile on his face and said: "Emperor Ou should hurry up and follow me to Taisun's Mansion to meet His Highness."
Fan Chong rubbed his hands, stepped forward with a flattering face, bent down and whispered: "Your Highness didn't summon that soft-footed horse, did he?"
Tian Mai didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
This guy was really mocking that Mahamu all the time.
"His Highness has not summoned Mahamu and his party yet."
Snapped!
Fan Chong's face became more and more excited as he clapped his hands: "Your Highness is wise!"
After finishing speaking, Fan Chong turned around and looked at the surrounding followers under Tian Mai's uncontrollable smile.
"You continue to clean up here, I have to go to see His Royal Highness the Emperor."
"My subordinates respectfully send off Inspector Ou."
Tian Mai, who was standing aside, saw his eyes widened.
The people who stayed with Fan Chong in the Huitong Hall were all Europeans, but what Tian Mai didn't expect was that Fan Chong's subordinates could actually understand Ming Dynasty Mandarin.
But I can only understand it
Not what surprised Tian Mai the most.
Just now Fan Chong gave instructions to these people in Ming Dynasty Mandarin, and these people also responded in Mandarin.
This is the most unexpected thing for Tian Mai.
Tian Mai couldn't help but look at Fan Chong, whose face was full of joy.
This guy is really interesting.
"Sir, I heard that Your Highness already has a son and a daughter. Shouldn't I prepare a gift for the son and daughter?"
"When Xianguan returned to the Ming Dynasty from Europe, he heard that there was a legend of wealth in Tianzhu, with countless gold, gems, and fist-sized colorless diamonds."
"According to the customs in Europe, the lower official can take the navy to Tianzhu to retrieve the wealth and congratulate the prince and daughter. Those colorless diamonds as big as fists can also be used to make gorgeous heads for the prince and daughter. crown."
"..."
"Sir, that soft-footed horse is so bold that he should attack the imperial officials in our Ming Dynasty. Do you think they still want to return to the Central Plains?"
"Although I have never practiced martial arts, I am willing to take someone with me to personally see the head of the soft-footed horse and present it to His Highness if His Highness needs it."
"..."
"Yes! I also heard from the naval generals that the imperial court now has newer and larger warships equipped with more powerful artillery."
"I wonder if the imperial court can give me a few more warships when I go to Europe next time. I think our dragon flag of the Ming Dynasty will also be planted on the land of Europe."
[An app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old book-chasing tool, used by all old bookworms.
What's the matter? "
After Tian Mai went to the Huitong Hall, Zhu Yunxi retrieved a lot of documents and records related to the grassland.
At this moment, Gao Yangzhi's greetings made people wake up.
"Ah, Brother Chunfeng is here."
Zhu Yunxi raised his head with a look of relief on his face. He put down the paperwork in his hand and waved to Gao Yangzhi, motioning him to sit on the chair beside him: "Sit down, I won't move. The tea is at hand. Brother Chunfeng just takes care of it." Do it yourself."
It's a very gentle opening.
Gao Yangzhi's initially solemn mood relaxed a little, and he cupped his hands to Taisun who was sitting behind a bookcase: "I thank you, Your Highness."
Zhu Yunxi waved his hands casually, minding his own business and tidying up the messy books in front of him.
Gao Yangzhi also turned sideways with contentment, took the teapot on the coffee table at hand, and poured the tea soup into the tea cup whose carcass glaze was as delicate as mutton-fat white jade.
"Brother Chunfeng must have killed a lot of people on Jiaozhi Road."
Suddenly, Zhu Yunxi suddenly changed the topic and asked calmly.
Gao Yangzhi, who was about to pour himself a cup of tea, was immediately stunned.
winter.
The teapot, which was still dripping with water, was gently put down by Gao Yangzhi again and landed on the coffee table.
Gao Yangzhi had already clasped his hands again and nodded, turning around to face the Taisun: "Reporting to Your Highness, in the 25th year of Hongwu, the imperial court mobilized a large army, with Duke Founding as the general to conquer Annan and other places in the south.
At that time, His Highness led an army alone and was stationed in Thanh Hoa Prefecture. At that time, I was only in the second grade of high school. He went south with the army, first observed the government in Qiongzhou Prefecture, and then ascended to Jiaozhi, where he served as an official for three years. Although there is a large army to suppress it, turmoil is inevitable in the New Deal.
As an official of the imperial court, I am responsible for pastoring and guarding a place on behalf of the emperor. I should prioritize the stability of the place and the stability of the people. The imperial court is benevolent, but I do not want to increase the number of killings.
However, the importance of Sheji is more important than Mount Tai.
Although I am a scholar and a member of the community, I can still kill you with a knife. "
Gao Yangzhi did not say how many people he killed on Jiaozhi Road, but his attitude was extremely clear.
As long as it is for the sake of the country, killing people is nothing.
A smile appeared on Zhu Yunxi's face, and he stretched out his hand to press down: "This is why I want to call you Gao Chunfeng today."
Gao Yangzhi clasped his hands together and fell on his lap, nodded and raised his chest: "I am all ears."
"The Ming Dynasty has been going abroad in recent years, and the court needs people who can endorse these things." Zhu Yunxi glanced at Gao Yangzhi blankly, and continued: "Jie Dashen has never been an official. He will have many things. Hesitation. As for Ren Gu Yong... he has more than enough to defend, and it is acceptable to weigh the pros and cons in the court."
After finishing speaking, Zhu Yunxi stared blankly at Gao Yangzhi, who looked thoughtful.
In Gao Yangzhi's mind, what Zhu Yunxi just said was constantly echoing.
The imperial court had two completely different attitudes internally and externally.
Even during the chaos in the Central Plains this year, although the imperial court also killed many people, everyone made a decision about life and death after careful consideration. Not to mention that if it concerns the largest number of poor people, the court will basically treat it lightly if they don't pursue it.
However, the imperial court rarely made such a request for newly conquered areas such as Jiaozhi Road.
The only focus of the court is whether the newly conquered land is stable and whether the court's share of income can be escorted into the official warehouse of the Ministry of Household Affairs as scheduled.
As for the rest?
Nothing else.
Over in Yingzhou, the Eastern Expedition army seemed to have killed many people. What Cao Guogong Li Jinglong did in Yingzhou has often been reported back to the capital in the same tone recently.
There were fewer and fewer Japanese in the land of Yingzhou, the imperial court received more and more Japanese workers, and the Eastern Expedition army became more and more merciful.
"For example..." Zhu Yunxi spoke softly, hesitating a little, and then slowly said: "Although the Japanese country is gone now. But logically speaking, those Japanese workers cannot be regarded as my Mingren. The imperial government's employment should be returned to the Ministry of Industry, The Ministry of Household Affairs is in charge of it. But since these Japanese workers are not considered Mingren, they are
Don't you need someone to take care of it? "
Ming people are noble.
Even if he is a Akito beggar on the streets of Yingtian City, his life is more precious than the emperor of Japan in the past.
Today Taisun first asked how many people he had killed, and now he also talked about Japanese workers.
Gao Yangzhi stood up immediately and said, "I am keeping an eye on His Highness Taisun. In the future, I will pay close attention to all matters within the Ming Dynasty and outside the Ming Dynasty, so as not to cause the court to lose its dignity."
Zhu Yunxi burst into laughter, pressed his hands to Gao Yang, motioned him to sit down, and then said: "Speaking of which, when Tie Xuan who is still in Yingzhou returns to Beijing, you can have more contact with him. I want you to come." The two of them are compatible."
"I have heard about this Iron Minister for a long time and am looking forward to it."
Zhu Yunxi nodded and said, "There is another matter today that is not related. I will discuss it with you when we arrive. I will also leave this matter to you in the future."
Customs?
This is a sensitive word above the Ming Dynasty.
Gao Yangzhi raised his head and looked at the emperor's grandson: "Your Highness, are you waiting for Mahamu, the envoy of the Oara tribe?"
At this time.
There was a noise outside the small study, which disturbed Gao Yangzhi's thoughts.
Seeing that Fan Chong had finally calmed down, Tian Mai stood outside the door and cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, the European Supervisory Envoy has arrived. I respectfully invite you to see him."
In the study room, Gao Yangzhi was quite unexpected.
Regarding matters outside the customs, Taisun summoned the green-eyed and red-haired Yi merchant.
Zhu Yunxi smiled and glanced at Gao Yangzhi, without explaining, turned to look at the door: "Come in."
He just finished speaking.
Fan Chong, who had been waiting impatiently outside the door of the small study for a long time, rushed into the small study before Tian Mai.
After entering the small study room, Fan Chong didn't care about anything else. He identified the position of the emperor's grandson and knelt down, sliding all the way from the door to the bookcase.
"The humble minister Fan Chong meets His Highness the Emperor Grandson!"
"Wei Chen is willing to go through fire and water for the Ming Dynasty!"
"I am willing to do my best for His Highness!"
