The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Chapter 261
Zhu Yuanzhang's voice echoed in Zhu Ying's ears.

What he said was to tell Zhu Ying that as an emperor, he does not have to be bound by the law. In his opinion, what Wu Zhou did seemed to be upholding the so-called king's law, but in fact he put himself in the king's place. below the law.

What is Wang Fa?

Zhu Yuanzhang told his grandson: What we say is Wang Fa!
"Grandson understands." Zhu Ying replied with a light nod.

At this moment, he really understood what kind of concept the emperor's power is.

"The eldest grandson has now been announced as the great grandson. According to the usual practice, he should be in charge of the East Palace. I don't know what the eldest grandson thinks."

Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

The concept of declaring and canonization is similar, basically it has been settled.

Like the previous Zhu Yunwen, after Zhu Yuanzhang announced, he was already called His Royal Highness Taisun, and there was only one canonization ceremony missing.

The same is true of Zhu Ying now.

The current officials or other people can have three titles for Zhu Ying, His Highness Changsun, His Highness Taisun, and His Royal Highness King Yu.

These titles are also important.

For example, on the royal side, it can be called His Highness the eldest grandson.

For officials, they need to be addressed as His Royal Highness Taisun.

Ordinary people can use the title of His Royal Highness King Yu.

When Zhu Ying heard the news that it was the East Palace, she pondered for a while and shook her head, "Grandpa, my grandson lives quite comfortably in the Kunning Palace, but I have never been to the Chunhe Palace."

"I heard from my grandfather that my grandson also grew up in Kunning Palace when I was a child, so my grandson wanted to live here."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, and said, "That's fine, our grandfather and grandson are also close together. Since the eldest grandson likes it, we can live like this."

Since Zhu Ying's identity was announced at the court meeting.

Apart from causing quite a stir in the court, it seems that as far as the entire capital is concerned, there is no discount event that has left a deep memory.

The days in the palace did not seem to have changed significantly because of the addition of Zhu Ying.

For Zhu Ying, the biggest difference is that he has an extra seal in his hand.

This is the seal of the crown prince, also known as the seal of the grandson, which means the crown prince.

The power of the prince's seal is basically endowed by the emperor, and the power can be as great as it is open.

Among the dynasties and dynasties, the crown prince's seal is not well-known, and its symbolic meaning far exceeds its actual function, basically nothing can be governed.

But for Zhu Ying, this seal is almost equivalent to half of the Ming emperor.

That is to say, all the current official documents and approvals, basically stamped with Zhu Ying's seal of the prince, can take effect immediately.

Even civil and military officials below the third rank have the power to directly appoint and dismiss.

Putting aside the three lords and the three orphans, Zhu Ying, such as the six ministers and the left and right ministers, cannot be appointed and dismissed immediately, and the others have the power to directly decide.

Of course, if Zhu Yingzhen took Shangshu or killed him, it is estimated that Zhu Yuanzhang would reprimand him at most. If there is a reason for the incident, even if there is only a small reason, then it is nothing.

"Grandpa is going to add burden to me directly."

Zhu Ying played with the seal and said helplessly.

He was already very clear about what the old man conveyed, which was for him to form his own small team now.

And formally announcing his identity in the court will help him get close to civil servants, or absorb civil servants.

Regardless of whether officials want to seek refuge with the grandson, it is very difficult, the most important of which is the door.

Without connections, they don't even have the qualifications to meet the grandson, so how can they have any chance to display their talents and be valued by the grandson.

It's just that Zhu Ying is not very interested in civil servants, especially in internal affairs.

In terms of internal affairs, the biggest problem for Daming at present is food and land.

Most domestic affairs basically revolve around these two.

Only when these two problems are greatly alleviated can we do something else.

Whether it's economics, education, culture, legal popularization, etc., it's nonsense to talk about these things with hungry old Bai surnames, and it doesn't make any sense.

It was almost time for dinner, Ye Yueqing returned to Kunning Palace.

For Ye Yueqing, it is roughly equivalent to the status of a female official, but Zhu Ying has never given him any actual official position.

Walking in the palace now is also holding the badge on his body.

Although he has no official position, anyone with a discerning eye knows that no one dares to offend Ye Yueqing's future possibilities.

"Your Highness, as of today's Shenshi [-]:[-], all the goods in the participating stores in the capital have been completely sold out, and there is no one left."

"In the capital city, about half of the people did not buy it. Now many people are still gathering outside the store, complaining about their dissatisfaction."

"At the moment, almost everyone hopes that such an event can happen again."

Ye Yueqing said slowly.

After listening, Zhu Ying nodded slightly.

This is his test for Daming business.

He found that the business of Ming Dynasty was very different from the business outside of Ming Dynasty.

Daming business is the main consumer group. In the middle and high-end segment, it is mainly the landlord class, nobles and other big households.

Like many landowners, they can almost reach the concept of self-sufficiency.

What does it mean.

That is to say, they don't like to spend the silver and money they get everywhere, but dig a cellar at home and hide it.

Because of natural disasters, almost all landlords have the habit of storing grain.

The family has been storing a lot of food and money.

Except for some simple daily needs, there is basically no desire to shop.

The essence of commodities lies in circulation.

Only when everyone spends their money can business prosper.

So what Zhu Ying has to do now is to stimulate the market economy.

In this regard, discounts are the best way to go.

Greed for petty gain is inherent in nature, and Zhu Ying is not surprised by the current situation.

"Next, we can buy goods from all over the Ming Dynasty and sell them. The positioning is still as I said before, and the target must be clear."

"Now that the capital is successful, the same strategy must be possible in other places."

"Especially in Su and Song areas, you can do it several times."

Speaking of this, Zhu Ying sighed a little.

Money is really needed everywhere.

Although he could go directly to the old man to get it, or even let the Banknote Lifting Department print a large amount of treasure banknotes directly.

But this is undoubtedly killing the chicken and taking the eggs, and it will only make the depreciation of the Daming treasure faster.

What Zhu Ying is doing now is, in a sense, repurchasing precious banknotes.

At the same time, Zhu Yuanzhang has issued an edict to the Baochao Lifting Department and began to restrict the printing of the Baochao Lifting Department.

When the precious banknotes on the market start to become scarce, the value of the precious banknotes can be increased without flooding.

It's kind of funny to say.

When Zhu Ying received these precious banknotes, she did not store them immediately, but destroyed them centrally.

Of course, only the profit part is destroyed.

This is equivalent to wiping the old man's ass.

Just when Zhu Yingda was engaged in business activities.

Koryo Yao Guangxiao's side has already begun to prepare to march on Tsushima Island.

"National Teacher, it's only been over a month now. Didn't it mean that the official attack on Tsushima Island will be two months later? Why is it suddenly brought forward? The brothers are not ready yet."

Wei Guang asked involuntarily.

At the meeting just now, Yao Guangxiao proposed to dispatch [-] troops as the vanguard to march directly to Tsushima Island in three days.

Of course, the reason for the number of 8 troops is because all the current ships can only carry [-] people.

The reason why Wei Guang raised the question was because a lot of food was still on the way and was being continuously collected into the army.

Seeing that the logistics support gradually stabilized, the national division wanted to go to war directly.

"Soldiers, it's tricky. You can't tell the poor monk that it will be two months, so it will really be two months."

"Now the poor monk got the news that a large number of Japanese pirates are gathering towards Tsushima Island. At this time, the other party's military camp is naturally in chaos."

"And attacking Tsushima Island at this time, even if the offensive is unfavorable, it can also have the effect of encircling the point and attacking reinforcements."

Yao Guangxiao explained slowly.

Hearing this, Wei Guang wanted to speak, but after looking at the other generals around him, he finally didn't speak.

Speaking from the words, there is absolutely no problem with Yao Guangxiao's statement.

In reality, however, there is a big discrepancy.

The first is the food supply of the [-] army. According to the current meaning of the national division, there is no plan to replenish the ships that transport food.

It also means that the army can only carry about ten days of rations at most, and it has to fight against Tsushima Island, and it can only be a quick battle.

If it is delayed, it may collapse on its own without waiting for the enemy to attack.

Secondly, although the current army has a large number, in fact most of the soldiers are landlubbers.

Seasickness aside, most of them are not used to water.

Recently, all the generals have been training their soldiers for maritime combat in order to adapt to this combat situation in advance.

The limited number of ships has led to the fact that [-]% of the soldiers' sea training has not yet achieved results, and they have to drive ducks to the shelves.

This made Wei Guang a little worried.

Although the other Koryo generals did not speak, many people were a little dissatisfied.

It felt like a monk like Yao Guangxiao was a little unconvinced when he commanded them military.

Yao Guangxiao looked at this scene and said calmly: "According to the information from Xizuo, there are only about 2 households in Tsushima Island, and there are only more than [-] people stationed in Wa Kingdom this time."

"I am waiting for 8 people to fight against 2 people. This is a battle without suspense. Perhaps in many respects, the timing of the generals' promotion is not yet ripe."

"But everyone should know that the current Japanese pirates are also gathering continuously. If we wait for a long time, we will be harassed by a larger scale of Japanese pirates."

"The Japanese pirates who are good at naval warfare may bring more losses."

Hearing the explanation of the national teacher, many generals looked at each other and felt that there was some truth.

In the end, it was approved, and after the meeting was dispersed, it immediately began to mobilize the army and prepare for the attack.

Wei Guang was at the end and did not leave.

After everyone had left, he said to Yao Guangxiao with a wry smile: "National teacher, is it too cruel to do this?"

Wei Guang already understood Yao Guangxiao's thoughts thoroughly.

For Yao Guangxiao, he didn't treat the Goryeo soldiers as human beings at all, and he didn't even care about the casualties caused, so he fought forcibly.

You must know that among the current number of nearly eighteen armies, not even half of them are capable of fighting.

The others are basically field soldiers, and their weapons and armaments are very backward.

Especially when fighting at sea, it was obvious that Yao Guangxiao was going to risk his life.

"General Wei misunderstood. The poor monk is a monk, so naturally he would not make such a move in vain. But for now, it is impossible for us to give the Japanese side too much preparation time."

"General Wei should also have heard about the current situation in the country of Wa. It is equivalent to the beginning of our founding in the Ming Dynasty, waiting to be destroyed."

"At this juncture, the sooner we start, the sooner we can drag the Wa country into the quagmire of war."

"Under such circumstances, the resistance that our Ming army will encounter when it marches into the Wa country after the spring of next year can be reduced a lot."

Yao Guangxiao's words echoed in Wei Guang's ears.

After Wei Guang finished listening, he no longer wanted to refute.

When it comes to Daming, it is worth the price that Goryeo paid.

The reason why Wei Guang has such an idea is because he has gradually integrated into the life of Korea during these years of living in Korea.

In terms of appearance, there is no difference between the people of Goryeo and the people of Ming Dynasty.

That's why Wei Guang said such words.

Looking at the back of Wei Guang leaving, Yao Guangxiao couldn't help but said: "He is a general who has achieved great success, but he still has a heart like a Bodhisattva, which is a bit interesting."

"Among the officers and soldiers of His Royal Highness Changsun, or among other members, it seems that Wei Guang's thinking is similar to that of Wei Guang."

"Could it be because of the influence of His Royal Highness the eldest grandson?"

Yao Guangxiao frowned slightly.

It is difficult for ordinary people to find such details, but to Yao Guangxiao who is good at studying people's hearts, they are like candles in the dark, very eye-catching.

Especially for all the core members who follow His Highness the eldest grandson, this characteristic is even more obvious.

It is a habit for the army to kill innocent people indiscriminately and seize food.

But including the generals headed by Wei Guang, they are truly teachers of benevolence and righteousness to the common people.

"Perhaps, only His Highness the eldest grandson is worthy of everyone's following."

"It's just that His Royal Highness's subordinates can't all be like this. There are always some dirty things that need to be done."

"The poor monk doesn't care about these things!"

Yao Guangxiao couldn't help sighing.

From the very beginning, while Yao Guangxiao was conquering the Japanese kingdom, he also planned to consume a large amount of Goryeo's troops.

Only under such circumstances, it will be much easier to turn Goryeo into a part of Ming Dynasty.

What he needs is the result. As for the process, it doesn't matter.

After three days,
Along the coast, hundreds of large and small ships set off with a mighty [-] army.

Among this group of personnel, ninety-nine percent are generals and soldiers of Goryeo.

Wei Guang and others were not among them.
