The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Conquering the Wa Kingdom is currently the top priority of Ming Dynasty.

Because, this is a national war!
There is no doubt that the current Wa country must have already received the news.

The Japanese envoys had already arrived in the capital, but they had been lingering in the Tianjie Temple, and their daily travel was also restricted, let alone handing in documents.

According to Zhu Yuanzhang's words: See what you see, hit first and then talk.

A country that is not a subject, first crusade.

Now the time is ripe, there are already hundreds of sails erected at Zhengyangmen, all of which are sea-going ships.

Unlike the previous Mongolian Yuan fleet, each piece of wood in these sea-going ships is made of 50-year-old shade wood, which is enough to ensure that there is no need to worry about sailing in the sea.

There are also many types of boats.

Covering ocean boats, sealing boats, warships, sentinel boats, wave boats, chain boats, Dafu boats, etc.

Every ship is huge, like a building, standing above the river outside Zhengyang Gate, showing the majesty of the Ming Dynasty.

There are only more than 100 ships here, but there are thousands of sails waiting along the coast.

More than 50 soldiers, who set off early in the year, have now arrived at the coast, and they are mainly generals from all walks of life starting from the capital.

For example, Feng Sheng, and Zhu Di, the king of Yan, Zhu Wei, the king of Jin, and Zhu Wei, the king of Qi.

Three vassal kings, plus a duke.

This is the top upper-level lineup for this conquest of the Wa Kingdom.

Outside the Zhengyang Gate, the scene was even bigger this time.

Not only Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Yingqi arrived, but also hundreds of officials saw him off.

The entire pier has been sealed off and approaching is strictly prohibited.

Looking at the soldiers who kept boarding the ship, as well as his three sons, Zhu Yuanzhang was quite embarrassed.

In fact, a long time ago, Zhu Yuanzhang no longer had the idea of ​​​​conquering outside the territory, but only wanted to strengthen the Ming Dynasty and pass it on forever.

After all, there were problems everywhere in the Ming Dynasty, and even the national treasury was heavily in debt every year, which could only be maintained by issuing precious banknotes.

In war, what is fought is logistics.

For example, the surrounding small countries are not invincible, but after the war is over, the treasury will be short of money, and the territory that has been conquered cannot be filled at all.

If you hit here, you will lose, and if you hit there, you will lose, so just don't fight.

The savages on the prairie are those who are barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes.

In fact, the grassland tribes fought the autumn wind in Daming, and generally speaking, they seldom benefited. Compared with the border sergeants of Ming Dynasty, the ratio of casualties was greater.

Often an autumn wind may be the decline and disappearance of several tribes.

It's just that they have to fight.

"We know you want to go, but grandson, you have to be clear, you are now the great grandson of our Daming."

"The security of the country depends on one's life, so don't act rashly."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the eyes of the great grandson, how could he not understand what he wanted to do, but the position of the prince, although he was not the emperor, was not easy to move.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Ying nodded slightly.

Zhu Yuanzhang comforted: "It's not that you can't go, but you can only inspect after the front line has settled down and the dangers have been removed."

"You are a grandson, not a general. Naturally, you don't need to participate in the marching and fighting."

A trace of pity flashed in Zhu Ying's eyes.

I can't personally participate in such things as conquering the Wa country.

But it would be good to go on a tour after the Japanese Kyushu Island is taken.

"Grandson understands. Recently, grandson is very quiet and wants to take a good look at my Daming Jiangshan. Grandpa asks for permission."

Zhu Ying followed suit and said.

The current situation in the capital is very clear, but now Zhu Ying has more arrangements.

It is not enough to only have the capital side alone, not to mention far away, at least the entire Nanzhili area must be controlled.

Especially on the side of the guard, it was so urgent, and the matter of spring plowing had to be thoroughly implemented.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said, "That's fine. When the time comes, there will be a charter for where to inspect. It happens to be at Fengyang's hometown. Dasun should also go and have a look. We have stopped in Zhongdu now."

"Now that money and wealth are abundant, maybe it can be put on the agenda again."

The feng shui of the Nanjing Imperial City is not very good. Before Zhu Yuanzhang suffered from lack of money, he stopped the construction of the Fengyang Imperial City.

Now seeing that the treasury is getting more and more full, and now that high-yielding crops are cultivated on a large scale, the problem of food and clothing has been largely solved.

Zhu Ying frowned slightly.

He naturally knew what the old man was thinking.

There is a saying that fallen leaves return to their roots. Although the old man established his capital in Nanjing, he has always wanted to move the capital to his hometown in Fengyang.

It's just that Zhu Ying still has a lot of construction ideas in her heart, and spending a lot of money to build Fengyang Central Capital will naturally be delayed.

Just when Zhu Ying wanted to persuade the old man, she suddenly saw the old man's white hair.

This year's old man is already 65 years old.

According to historical records, there are only five years left.

But as far as the current situation is concerned, it is natural to live longer, but when it reaches 70 years old, how long can it live.

In this life, maybe I have been counting on this in my heart.

Thinking of this, Zhu Ying felt a little uncomfortable, and nodded heavily.

"These damn Japanese pirates are well killed."

"I've heard of Japanese pirates before, but I didn't take them seriously. How could I have imagined that they are so vicious and cruel, even children are not spared. If I knew the rules on the grassland, children who haven't reached the wheel can't be harmed."

"Their behavior is undoubtedly like animals. No, calling them animals is simply slandering animals. They are inferior to pigs and dogs."

"Before, I didn't understand why so many troops were sent to subjugate the Japanese country. Looking at each other across the sea, I felt thankless. Now I understand that these scumbags must be educated and let them know what is called etiquette, righteousness and shame."

"I hope the army will be smooth sailing, and the country of Wa will be conquered earlier."

With the release of the second edition of Dibao, the real capital began to discuss the Wa Kingdom.

The term "Japanese pirates" has become a hot topic in the streets and alleys of the capital.

The mansion newspaper recorded in detail the Japanese pirates' inhumane killings in the coastal areas, especially some extremely brutal methods. Even if the mansion newspaper only briefly described it, it would be extremely appalling.

Compared with the Japanese pirates, the autumn wind on the grassland seems to have become much more docile.

The anger of the Ming people was completely ignited.

At the foot of Jiming Mountain, Guozijian.

"I knew that the Taisun founded the Mansion Newspaper because he wanted to completely control the hearts of the people. The Mansion Newspaper for three pennies a piece is no different than cabbage. I don't believe that there is any profit in the three pennies."

A family member said angrily.

His words also got the approval of many classmates.

"His Royal Highness must have been confused by the villain. With such a huge sales volume, how much will he lose every day? I heard that millions of mansion newspapers are sold every day. Even if other items are not counted, this is just a fill-in. An endless hole."

"The most important thing is that all the students go out for a walk, even if they are traffickers and pawns, they are talking about state affairs. They don't even know big characters, so what can they understand, and they are full of vulgar language."

"That's right, those rough farmers, how can they be worthy of talking with us, they are just mud legs facing the loess and back to the sky.".
During the break time of the Imperial College, many students talked about it.

The current Guozijian is very lively, because Fengyang Zhongdu Guozijian was abolished last year, and its teachers and students were merged into Nanjing Guozijian.

So in today's Imperial College, there are more than 8000 students alone.

Guozijian, as the highest institution of the Daming Educational Institute, as long as it can come in, and if there are no accidents, it will be able to obtain an alternate official position if it has been saved for five years or more.

Of course, it is not that easy to become an official, but generally speaking, after seven or eight years, one can basically enter politics.

Easier and easier than the middle lift.

Of course, if you want to enter here to study, it doesn't mean that anyone can do it.

Even if you are a scholar, you may not have this qualification.

Most of them here are nobles, the heirs of officials, and at the very least they have to be the seventh rank of Beijing officials to be eligible.

And the relationship must be within three generations, distant relatives are not eligible.

But for many officials, this is not a big deal. If the family relationship is far away, they can just adopt directly.

But for the number of places, according to the different grades, there are also certain restrictions.

Further up is the Imperial Academy, but it is mainly set up for the princes and grandchildren. Even the Duke and Marquis are not allowed to study in it without His Majesty's personal permission.

There are also a small number of foreign ministers and students here.

Princes from some small countries can also come to study.

There is a clear distinction here, forming many circles, the one discussed just now can be regarded as a medium circle, the father's biggest official is the son of the six servants.

These remarks were extremely high-profile, and they even involved grandchildren, so many people couldn't help avoiding them.

One of them, with an angry expression on his face, pushed aside the crowd and came straight over.

"Who dared to talk about the grandson behind his back just now, stand up for me!"

This man is dressed as a young scholar, but he has a sturdy air, as if he is not a serious scholar.

Seeing this person come forward, the surroundings retreated further.

"It's Chang Jizu who's here, good guy, and things are getting serious now."

"The Chang family is the grandson's natal family. If you dare to say that, you are really offending me to death."

"These guys deserve to be unlucky."

Chang Jizu, the son of Chang Sheng, the founder of the state, and the grandson of Chang Yuchun.

He and Zhu Ying can be regarded as cousins.

Although Chang Jizu only met Taisun once, this did not prevent him from maintaining everything that Taisun had.

Seeing the seven or eight people in front of him froze and said nothing, Chang Jizu snorted coldly: "If you don't say anything, I'll take it as if you all said it."

"Stay away if you are interested."

As soon as these words came out, the few people dispersed without any hesitation, leaving only one person isolated in the field.

Chang Jizu didn't hesitate at all, he strode over a few times, and punched this person fiercely on the door.

"Ouch."

With a scream, the man was directly beaten to the ground.

Chang Jizu didn't intend to stop at all, he went up and continued with punches and kicks.

Seeing the heavy hand being thrown, the man on the ground didn't dare to shout, and could only scream again and again.

To be able to come here to study is to understand some sophistication of the world. If this matter gets out, even my father probably can't handle it.

Chang Jizu felt bored after playing and fighting. Without resistance, he naturally lacked passion.

Besides, this is the Guozijian, and it is definitely not possible to kill him, so he stopped.

"If you dare to talk about your grandson behind your back, I will smash your stinking mouth."

"Also, don't come here with muddy legs all day, go with muddy legs. In the next few decades, my grandfather will be what you call muddy legs."

"It's not only my grandfather, but most of the people who study here are two generations old, who are not eating from the ground, so don't show how noble you are."

Abandoning these words, Chang Jizu left in a cool way.

Seeing that there was no shadow, the classmates who had just left dared to come forward to help.

Seeing that the excitement was gone, the crowd of onlookers naturally dispersed.

Even the guards who watched quietly from a distance also left with the flow of people.

Just now when Chang Jizu was beating someone, the guards were ready to maintain order. They looked at Chang Jizu with sharp eyes, and turned in vain when they were walking straight, as if they didn't see it.

Speaking of which, most of the sergeants working in the capital had followed Chang Yuchun, so how dare they take care of this Kaiping king and grandson.

What's more, this remark also involves His Royal Highness today.

"Jizu, don't be angry, these guys are all facing literati now, you don't know what kind of sex is, even if you beat them up, how many people care?"

"They're good at ruining other people's reputations. Other than that, they're really a bunch of trash, but they're relying on their parents' cuteness."

Speaking next to Chang Jizu was Chen Zheng, the grandson of Chen Huan, Marquis of Puding.

At the same time, the descendants of the founding heroes naturally have to get closer.

Chang Jizu said disdainfully: "They are nothing, they are just playing tricks, if something really happens, the kneecaps are soft."

"I'm not angry with them, but I feel that the Guozijian is becoming more and more unpleasant, especially in the past two months, the ones from there have also been incorporated. It seems that they only talk about literature, regardless of martial arts, and don't have to think about it. There is no grandfather waiting for me." They fight on the battlefield and make meritorious deeds, how can they have the happy life now."

"Now he's getting more courageous, even His Royal Highness dares to talk about it without authorization, why don't you talk about it without being punished by words, and treat our Ming Dynasty like the weak bones of the Song Dynasty?"

"It really should be rectified so that these guys understand the truth."

"To be honest, I don't want to stay in this Imperial Prison any longer. The teachers from Zhongdu over there are all of the same virtue. It's annoying to watch."

Hearing this, Chen Zheng looked around quickly, but there was no one around, and then he said: "Ji Zu Shen Yan, if these words are heard and spread, those people must deliberately tarnish your reputation."

"It's just that it doesn't matter between classmates. If someone with a heart is involved, it will have a big impact on Jizu."

Even the descendants of heroes are somewhat afraid of these literati.

Such things as reputation are mainly spread by these people. If it is too bad, even if they follow the route of a military officer, it will still have a great impact.

Especially their three generations of descendants.

Chang Jizu heard the words, but said indifferently: "I'm afraid, His Royal Highness knows about the opening of the military academy. I have already received the news, and it will be opened in the next ten days."

"At that time, I will not stay in this bird's place, and following His Royal Highness is the right way."

Chen Zheng rolled his eyes when he heard this, and said, "Jizu, you are a cousin of His Royal Highness Grandson's natal family."

"Why don't you find a chance to meet His Highness the Grandson and tell about the smoky atmosphere in the Imperial Prison."

"We are leaving anyway. The chaos in the Imperial College must be rectified after all."

As the grandson of the marquis, Chen Zheng has no resistance to entering the military academy.

Thinking of the days spent in the Imperial College, he simply thought of a way to disclose all the situation here to the grandson.

If His Highness Taisun knew about these things, he would definitely clean them up severely.

Chang Jizu's eyes lit up: "Okay, your idea is good."

"I have to have a good chat with my father, and convey this matter to the past. It won't be difficult for my grandson to summon me."
