After Feng Ji delayed Liu Siming in Old Port, he knew that there was no longer any opposition in Old Port and it was time to return to Ming Dynasty.
What happened here did not go beyond the emperor's expectations, and Feng Ji's mission was completed. Ming Dynasty wanted to use the old port as a springboard to dominate the world from the old port.
The geographical conditions are unique. From the old port, the Ming Dynasty can reach the African continent, the Indian Ocean, the Mediterranean and other places. No coastal country can escape the surveillance of the Ming Dynasty fleet.
To enter the Central Asian continent from Europe, you must pass through the Strait of Malacca and the Old Port. Therefore, how could Zhu Houzhao not pay attention to the unique maritime location of the Old Port.
Feng Ji brought the fleet not only to explore the way, but also to completely occupy this place and slowly annex the surrounding areas. The next one will be Mancajia's turn.
Malacca must be the natural customs of the Ming Dynasty.
Feng Ji started writing memorials in Liu Siming's government office.
"Slave Feng Ji, I am reporting to you, Your Majesty. Hello, Your Majesty, my Ming Dynasty's fleet has completely captured the Old Port. If it is as your Majesty said, the Old Port is occupied by thieves. Fortunately, Your Majesty Long Wei protects me, and our Ming Dynasty fleet will not After taking the old port with all the effort, I learned that Mancijia is ambitious and covets the Ming Dynasty Old Port Xuanwei Division. It is really annoying and hateful. However, I have verified that Mancijia is dead in name only."
"The entire Mancijia was ruled by a group of red-haired foreigners. They relied on the strength of their ships and their powerful artillery. With only a hundred or so men, they defeated the Mancijia army and intimidated several surrounding countries."
"The people of the Ming Dynasty in Old Port were not as good as the local people before, and were as humble as dogs. The slaves were so angry that they killed the thieves and asked the emperor to judge..."
This memorial was basically delivered to Zhu Houzhao's desk shortly after Zhang Zhong returned to Beijing.
royal palace.
Zhu Houzhao looked through the memorials and frowned deeply. It was Feng Ji's memorials, and the content inside made him moved and angry.
I am moved because those people who have lived in Old Port for hundreds of years still yearn deeply for the Ming Dynasty.
Angry because those bastards who harmed the people of Ming Dynasty dare to bully the people of Ming Dynasty like this, which is intolerable.
"Good kill."
Zhu Houzhao stood up after snapping the case and shouted: "Feng Ji has merit, Liu Jin."
"My slave is here."
Liu Jin was overjoyed when he heard this. Feng Ji was his man. Feng Ji had made contributions, so of course he was honored, although he didn't know what the credit was.
Zhu Houzhao patted him on the shoulder and praised: "You are very good. Feng Ji is brave and resourceful. He has been promoted to a fifth-grade eunuch. You go and draw up the decree."
Hearing this, Liu Jin smiled and thanked Feng Ji, and then stepped back.
Zhu Houzhao also ordered Zhang Zhong to get the chart of all nations, put it on the jade table, pointed to it and said to himself: "The old port is just the beginning. Next, it will be full of thorns in Canada, red-haired ghost? Haha, it should be Portugal. Army."
Zhang Zhong remained silent on the sidelines, wondering why the emperor was so excited, even knowing everything about the sea?
Zhu Houzhao continued to mutter to himself: "The military power of the Ming Dynasty cannot be resisted by the little Portuguese. Qi Jingtong will hurt them in this battle. The maritime gateway of the Ming Dynasty is Malacca."
His eyes suddenly stared at a place, and he pressed a palm on a strait on the chart.
Zhang Zhong silently handed over a jade pen, and Zhu Houzhao wrote one or two blood-red Ming Dynasty words on the map of Canada.
"Send this picture to Liu Jin and ask him to bring it to Feng Ji and Qi Jingtong together with the imperial edict."
Zhang Zhong bowed and accepted the order and retreated.
Since the collection of commercial taxes, Ming's life has become much better. The inventory of the world's fields is still going on, but now there is not much resistance.
Zhu Houzhao finally looked overseas. If the invaders can go, I can go too. One day hundreds of years later, you will come to China, bringing opium and humiliation.
Now, I want to return them all to you, so that you can feel the humiliation and despair that China felt at that time.
Zhu Houzhao himself didn't realize that his personality was slowly changing. A year ago, he just wanted to spend more than ten years living happily, and then be reincarnated in ten lives according to his established destiny.
However, now, he has begun to look at the Ming Dynasty from the perspective of the emperor, a living creature. He wants the Ming Dynasty to be hard to come by. If he wants the Ming Dynasty, wherever the sun and the moon shine, and wherever the rivers and seas reach, it is the land of the Ming Dynasty.
Let future generations no longer have to bear the history of humiliation.
Zhu Houzhao's change may not have even been noticed by himself. He was too impatient, because he had been demanding himself based on the standard that he only had a life span of more than ten years, and tried to bring more vitality to Ming Dynasty.
At least, before he dies, he must build an iron-walled Ming Dynasty with his own hands and hand it over to future generations.
It may be from the guilt and regret of the first life, or it may be from the view of history in later generations. In short, maybe he wants to live a less muddled life in his lifetime.
As the number one dog-headed strategist beside the emperor, Yang Shen, no, this guy can only be ranked second. The first is Yan Song. Sometimes, Yan Song's role is greater than Yang Shen.
At this moment, Yang Tinghe entered the palace again, this time with a group of craftsmen and goods. The joy on his face attracted the attention of the officials. Yang Tinghe walked out of the cabinet and looked at his energetic son from a distance. He couldn't tell what he was doing at this time. What's your mood at this time?
Their father and son were so blessed that it was impossible for the ministers in the court not to be jealous, but what could be done? Who told them not to have a good son?
Of course, there is also Wang Hua, who also has a good son and is both civil and military. Although he does not accompany the king, he is already a popular figure in the court.
Someone joked with Wang Hua that Mr. Wang Ge really gave birth to a good son. He should be like Wang Shouren when he gave birth to a son.
Wang Hua would shake his head and smile bitterly every time this happened. Wang Hua had four sons. Wang Shouren was the eldest son. He had been smart since he was a child, but he was the one who worried Wang Hua the most.
He often does unexpected things, speaks directly and doesn't know how to adapt. Wang Hua often warns him, but Wang Shouren still goes his own way.
Originally, Wang Hua was deeply worried about his son leading the army, but he never thought that his son would be knighted for his merits, giving the Wang family an additional hereditary title.
This was something he never expected, but he became even more worried because of it. He even felt uneasy about resigning because of the emperor's favor.
Zhu Houzhao knew Wang Hua's worries. It was because of this in history that Wang Shouren was repeatedly squeezed and suppressed, and even the emperor was deeply displeased.
But he was not the Zhu Houzhao in the original history. Naturally, he understood Wang Hua's concerns, but he was even more gracious to the father and son. Wang Hua was a true gentleman, different from the gentleman praised by others.
Zhu Houzhao directly promoted Wang Hua to the cabinet to appease his heart.
"Father, gentlemen." Yang Shen saluted.
Old man Li Dongyang smiled and said: "Yong Xiu's face is full of joy. If I am right, I guess the Royal Manufacturing Bureau has found another treasure."
Others were also curious. Yang Shen entered the palace with great fanfare. With such movement, it was not difficult to guess that it must be related to the Royal Manufacturing Bureau.
Yang Shen nodded, but he said as if he was showing off his beloved thing: "Mr. Li, it is okay to say that this thing is a treasure, but it is more precious than it is. A treasure cannot be described. I would like to call it something that benefits the country and the people." A peerless artifact.”
Immediately, his words immediately aroused the interest of everyone present. What kind of thing could it be called a peerless artifact?
Xie Qian's eyes shone, and Yang Tinghe looked proud. Look, this is my son.
The ministers stepped forward to look at the box containing the artifact, their eyes shining. The product produced by the Royal Manufacturing Bureau must be a high-quality product.
Yang Shen was about to continue explaining when Liu Jin came out from a distance and said with a smile: "Our family has met all the masters of the pavilion. When the emperor heard that Yang Shen came to the palace to present the artifact, he specially ordered our family to invite Yang Shen to enter the palace quickly. Sir, please forgive me for offending our family."
Then Yang Shen followed Liu Jin into the palace.
Li Dongyang smiled and said: "Colleagues, since this is a divine weapon, why don't we also come together to see it, so that we can see what kind of divine weapon it is?"
Xie Qian, Wang Hua and others looked at each other, and everyone looked at Yang Tinghe.
Yang Tinghe smiled and said, "Let's go together."
Later, several bachelors and Yang Tinghe asked to see him. Zhu Houzhao had known that this would be the case and invited everyone into the hall with a smile.
"Xuan."
