The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

After initially stabilizing Beiyuan, the next step is to develop the black land.

If this piece of black land can be fully developed, for Daming's current population of more than 6000 million, it will already be able to truly solve the problem of food and clothing.

Even if it is tens of millions more, it is completely affordable.

That piece of black soil is really like a piece of fertilizer. If you plant food directly on the fertilizer, you can imagine the harvest.

But before that, we must first do a good job of protection.

Liaodong black soil is not like other places. It is a vast plain, and it is impossible to build defenses and cities.

The only way is to station a large army in the surrounding area, and bring all the scattered tribes in the surrounding area under the direct rule of Ming Dynasty.

This one involves the grassland military base.

At this moment, Zhu Di had already returned to the grassland military base.

"Is this the way to reach a peace treaty?"

Zhu Di asked a little speechlessly.

Zhang Yu next to him nodded helplessly: "My lord, my subordinates have inquired everywhere. In order to express his sincerity, Bei Yuan gave up all the Han officials and reached a real peace covenant with our Ming Dynasty."

"Now on the grassland, all the caravans of the Ming Dynasty will be protected by the Mongolian cavalry, and Taisun is also constantly transporting supplies to ensure the supply of the grassland."

Zhu Di snorted coldly: "He's raising tigers as a threat. When the grassland regains its vitality, he will definitely invade our Daming."

"No matter how much meat you feed this prairie wolf, you won't be able to get enough."

Zhang Yu smiled bitterly, but did not refute the prince.

Zhu Di asked in a deep voice: "Why, don't you think what I said is wrong?"

Zhang Yu hesitated for a moment, then said: "I heard that His Royal Highness Taisun is dealing with Bei Yuan's mercenary matters, saying that he wants Bei Yuan's cavalry to go out and follow our Daming caravan to fight overseas."

"Make a settlement according to the price of the guard, and give Beiyuan a way to develop."

After Zhu Di listened, he immediately became thoughtful.

After thinking about it for a while, he understood Zhu Ying's plan here.

This is tantamount to continuously extracting Bei Yuan's source of troops, simply treating the entire Bei Yuan as a spare.

Of course Zhu Di was very aware of the overseas interests of the Daming caravan. When the Beiyuan cavalry earned their first pot of gold, they would definitely want to earn more.

At first glance, it seems that Daming is training for Beiyuan and supporting the cavalry.

In fact, based on Zhu Di's understanding of the grassland and Zhu Ying, these cavalrymen are very likely to be meat buns beating dogs, and they never return.

Everyone wants to live a better life, let alone the current Beiyuan cavalry.

They themselves have very good ideas about the Central Plains, and now they can come here in a legitimate way. When they are used to the prosperity of the Central Plains, will they still think about living a hard life on the grasslands?

"Zhu Ying, he really has something. After all, this king underestimated him."

Zhu Di sighed and said with a bit of helplessness.

Then he said: "I heard that there are frequent wars in the country of Wa, Zhang Yu, you said that the king is now asking Zhu Ying to go to the country of Wa, will he agree?"

Hearing this, Zhang Yu said hastily, "My lord, please keep your voice down. This is a grassland military base, and there are people from His Highness Taisun everywhere. If some words are passed on to His Highness Taisun, it will inevitably have some bad influence."

Zhu Di shouted: "Why, what bad influence can there be, this king is his fourth uncle."

That's what I said, but even if Zhu Di asked, his voice was much lower.

It's really a dead duck with a hard mouth.

Speaking of which, Zhu Di is really worried that Zhu Ying will target him again. If he is not allowed to control the military power and wreak havoc on the battlefield, it will indeed be more uncomfortable.

Zhu Di, who has been fighting for most of his life, doesn't want to be idle like this now.

Jingshi Mansion Newspaper.

Concubine Yue, who returned to Annan to visit her relatives, will soon return to the capital.

Of course, Zhu Ying already knew about these news being able to be published in the residence newspaper.

Not only did he know, but for the details of the entire itinerary, basically within seven or eight days, someone would continue to report it.

The influence of the Ming Dynasty on the surrounding countries, or the Central Plains Dynasty, is really too great.

Especially when the Central Plains Dynasty was in its heyday, no matter how noisy the surrounding small countries were, they would all become obedient little brothers.

For example, in the current Champa, its own culture has been greatly influenced by Tianzhu, and as the caravans of the Ming Dynasty continue to come, all the cities in Champa have opened Chinese language schools.

Of course, these Chinese schools are mainly studied by the nobles or noble children of Champa.

Champa is a caste system, under the blessing of the surname, nobles are born and noble.

Regarding these, Daming did not intervene, and did not pay too much attention to the enlightenment of Champa.

Similar to this kind of culture, it is actually very well-behaved and obedient, why bother to bother.

Today's Champa already has Ming's garrison, not what they need, all are provided by Champa.

Even if Chen Muyue returned to the capital, half of the sailors had already returned, and the remaining 1 sailors did not mean that Champa could be easily offended.

Chen Muyue's trip to Annan can be said to be very smooth, with almost no disturbances.

Especially after arriving in Annan, under the protection of Xuanjiawei, it had a great impact on the political situation of the entire Annan.

The current situation of Annan itself is very complicated. Annan, who seems to be prosperous, is actually leaking from all sides.

Just like the separatist regimes of the Tang Dynasty, each region has its own commander, and they don't pay much attention to the Annan royal family.

Coupled with the fact that Hu Jishou was involved in it, the situation became even more complicated.

It's just that Chen Muyue's arrival now is like a shot in the heart of the Annan royal family.

After arriving, in just seven days, the Annan royal family received the allegiance of several forces around the capital.

The situation is changing, the Annan royal family has become stronger with Daming as its support, and others are not fools, Princess Anxiu is back, so they don't understand Daming's attitude.

Especially the appearance of Xuanjiawei, let all Annan people who have seen it truly understand what it means to be a strong soldier.

Compared with Annan's army, this majestic style is completely a heaven and an underground.

With Chen Muyue's return to the capital, it was time for Zhu Yunqi to go to occupy the city.

The Lu family, who understands the truth, has already started to let the servants pack their things at this time.

Once you go, you may never come back.

"Yuan'er, have you ever regretted it?" Mrs. Lu looked around the palace and finally said with a sigh.

Zhu Yunwen was stunned for a moment, and then said: "My child doesn't understand what mother means."

Mrs. Lu was stunned for a moment, and after a slight pause, she continued, "Actually, your elder brother's identity has a lot to attack."

"Even my mother has made a lot of preparations here."

"If Mother had stood up and fought for that chance for you back then, it wouldn't necessarily be impossible."

"Your Majesty's love for your elder brother is naturally extremely doting, but once some things are really put on the table, it doesn't mean that our mother and I will lose."

Lu's mood was somewhat complicated.

Although she has been backing down, it is not because she has no chance to attack. An eldest grandson who has been dead for many years suddenly appears, and there are many doubts in it that can be discussed.

As the concubine of the crown prince, Lu's words carry a certain amount of weight even when the crown prince has passed away.

The reason why he kept silent was not because Mrs. Lu was afraid, but because he was worried about his son, and in the end he couldn't win.

In such matters, once you can't compete, you can imagine the days ahead.

So in the end, Mrs. Lu chose to be silent and avoid.

It is also because of the choice at the beginning that it has the vitality of today.

Zhu Yunqi is relatively simple. In fact, in his world, many things are not complicated.

"Mother, maybe you will say that the boy is too cowardly, but the boy still wants to say it."

"Look at today's Daming, it's not the same as it used to be. Eldest brother may not be able to recite poems, and may not understand the Four Books and Five Classics, but he is far superior to my son in governing the country."

"Haier thought carefully in his heart, if Haier came to be this grandson, would Daming be as grand as it is now?"

"Probably not, it may even be worse."

"The emperor's grandfather once asked me, what should I do if there is any change in the vassal kings?"

"The boy's answer is, courtesy first, soldiers later."

"It can be seen, brother, that the threat to the various feudal lords in the capital has been planned and gradually disappeared without a trace."

"Whether it's the emperor's uncles or the younger brothers, who can resist the elder brother's arrangement?"

"This is something only a big brother can do."

"So Hai'er doesn't regret it, and is very grateful for the return of the eldest brother. When the grandson was designated as the great-grandson, Hai'er was actually terrified in his heart."

"I always feel that Virtue is not suitable, and it turns out that the eldest brother is the most suitable person."

Zhu Yunqi's tone was a bit relaxed, and he looked at the place where he grew up, and he also had a bit of memory.

He had never traveled far before, and this time's departure almost meant that it was difficult to come back.

And coming back, it won't be like it is now.

After listening to Zhu Yunqi's inner monologue, Mrs. Lu paused slightly, and finally nodded slightly.

It is very lucky to have the current result.

This is also the generosity of the grandson, who never thought about suppressing him.

In fact, even if the overseas domain is not given, no one will say anything.

Now that I have given it, it shows that I still care about this brotherhood.

As long as you stay in the overseas feudal land well, you don't have to worry about settling accounts after the fall.

This is also the reason why other princes admire the grandson.

After all, overseas and Ming are two completely different concepts.

"A few days ago, I received news that the navy has made preparations, and your elder brother has also arranged troops for you."

"In the past few days, you should pay more respects to His Majesty and your elder brother, so that you can try to get acquainted with your future soldiers."

"For the soldiers, be kind and don't have the stink of the scholars. From now on, our mother and I will rely on them the most in Champa."

Lu said instructingly.

She is very clear that internal affairs are necessary, but military power is more important. Only when the soldiers return to their hearts is the foundation of their lives.

In other aspects, even if it is a little bit close, the impact will not be too great.

After all, there is Daming behind him.

There is no need to be afraid of anything.

"My child understands." Zhu Yunqi nodded seriously.

In Kunning Palace.

Zhu Ying was looking at the crude map on the table and meditating.

His purpose, of course, is not just Annan, Zhancheng.

Speaking of these places, for the current Zhu Ying, there is really no challenge.

Most of the countries next to the Ming Dynasty were counties and counties belonging to the Central Plains Dynasty. As long as there are enough talents, they can be easily controlled back.

However, an army of 20 can easily sweep the entire Nanyang region.

Pure war is not what Zhu Ying wants.

The development and advancement of the Nanyang region is Zhu Ying's ultimate goal.

Now on Annan's side, Daming's army is constantly reclaiming and farming, just wanting to develop Annan into Daming's back garden and granary.

"I hope Mrs. Lu won't disappoint me. After all, I sent [-] soldiers this time."

Zhu Ying never said that the possibility of taking root in Zhancheng was placed on Zhu Yunqi, but on a woman like Lu.

Going overseas to become a vassal is not what you should do, but an enterprising heart.

Lu Shi is such a good candidate.

If it were not for other reasons, Zhu Ying really wanted to hand over the army directly to the Lu family for restraint.

Judging from the current situation, it can be said that almost all the arrangements and preparations for Zhu Yunqi's vassal were operated by the Lu family.

Even a scholar like Huang Zicheng was fooled by Mrs. Lu and went to Champa together.

Huang Zicheng had a bad reputation in history. After all, it was because of his mistakes that Zhu Di was able to seize the throne smoothly.

But no matter in terms of loyalty or personal ability, Huang Zicheng is a first-class player.

Otherwise, Zhu Yuanzhang would not be entrusted with it, and he would even be allowed to read as the companion of the East Palace.

Without real materials, how could he be favored by Zhu Yuanzhang.

With the help of someone like Huang Zicheng, at least as far as the internal affairs of the Champa domain are concerned, it can be said that no one should worry about it.

After Chen Muyue came back, Ye Yueqing's body basically recovered.

The imperial physicians in the court naturally have real skills, especially in the aspect of taking care of the body.

Next, it can be regarded as a relatively important link, that is Ye Yueqing's re-pregnancy.

Only when Ye Yueqing gave birth to a baby boy, can it be considered as a guarantee of inheritance.

And other concubines can also start to get permission to conceive.

In just one month, the imperial physician diagnosed Ximai again on Ye Yueqing's side.

In other words, in September, it is possible to usher in Daming's great-eldest grandson.

Zhu Yuanzhang has been looking forward to it.

He has always wanted to hug his great-grandson.

Whether it is a man or a woman, that is to say, we will find out after ten months.
