The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Chapter 611 Annan Cabinet System

For the time being, the matter over Timur has little to do with Daming.

And Zhu Ying has been constantly expanding the navy.

It is estimated that it will only take about two years to produce enough sea-going ships.

The future is the era of great navigation. Whoever controls the sea power will mean a lot of wealth. Zhu Ying is already making sufficient preparations for this.

And at this time, with the transportation of the silver from the Wa country to the capital, it also brought a piece of news.

The Kyushu Island of the Wa Kingdom has been completely occupied by Ming Dynasty.

"The Japanese royal family has learned to be smart. They know that even protesting is useless. We are a little surprised that they didn't even send envoys."

After Zhu Yuanzhang got the news, he laughed and said.

Zhu Ying's face was slightly stiff, and she explained: "Grandpa, it's not that they don't want to send people over, it's just that none of these envoys have arrived in Daming."

As soon as this sentence was said, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately understood why there were no Japanese envoys to protest.

Then he asked, "Did the second or fourth do it?"

The corner of Zhu Ying's mouth twitched: "Several emperor uncles should have a share."

How could the Wa Kingdom not send envoys over, and they wanted to take a breather no matter what.

However, no matter whether it is the King of Qin Zhu Yu, the King of Jin Zhu Yu, or the King of Yan Zhu Di, or the King of Qi Zhu Yu, they all discussed this aspect and blocked the news of the Wa Kingdom.

All the envoys sent by the Japanese royal family basically did not go far, and they were intercepted and killed by the road.

Even if some of you slip through the net and reach Daming, it is impossible to say that they will go all the way to the capital.

Although several princes have all arrived in the Wa country, it does not mean that they have no influence in Daming. With an order issued, these things can be done easily.

The coastal government, even if they don't take action directly, will find ways to help convey the news.

The envoys of the Japanese kingdom set off in wave after wave, and wave after wave died on the road. Not to mention meeting the emperor of Ming Dynasty, they couldn't even enter Nanzhili.

"That's good, so that those individuals don't upset us."

As long as you didn't come to the capital, you should treat it as if you didn't know. It is absolutely impossible to say that it will stop. After Wa Kingdom discovered a large amount of silver deposits, it is doomed to be impossible to say that there is any possibility of surviving.

Now the four vassal kings who can fight the most in Ming Dynasty have all gone to the Wa Kingdom to make a fortune, one can imagine what kind of chaos the Wa Kingdom has become.

As Zhu Ying expected, after Zhu Gaochi didn't follow, Xia Yuanji came back on the silver ship back to Daming.

He didn't bring a few people with him, and with Xia Yuanji, there were only three or four people, and there were also family members who were with him.

After returning to the capital, Xia Yuanji naturally came to visit King Yan's mansion.

"His Royal Highness, the veteran is incompetent, and only brought two people back this time."

Xia Yuanji had a bit of shame on his face.

Zhu Di didn't make it difficult for them to return, on the contrary, he went with them before, and now he doesn't want to come back.

Now that the country of Wa is hot, a large number of Han people are trying their best to go to the country of Wa. These are already settled down, and they are not willing to come back easily for Zhu Gaochi.

Besides, after Yan Wang Zhu Di arrives, Yancheng will definitely usher in greater development.

Following Zhu Gaochi to Annan, it was like starting from scratch again.

Zhu Gaochi hurriedly supported Xia Yuanji and said, "Sir, you don't have to blame yourself. This is also human nature. I am very touched that Mr. can come back."

Zhu Gaochi said this from the bottom of his heart.

In any case, he is just a prince, not a prince.

The father is now in good health. To put it bluntly, Zhu Gaochi may not be able to inherit the throne in another 34 years.

These ministers are not young anymore, most of them are older than King Yan.

If there are no other accidents, it means that it will be difficult to see Zhu Gaochi, the son of the king, become the king of Yan in his lifetime.

If this is the case, then following Yan Wang may lead to a brighter future.

When I first went to the Wa country, except for Xia Yuanji, most of them were depressed and unable to stretch their ambitions.

After arriving in the Wa country, I already felt the beauty of power, so how could I give up.

And they don't have to worry about what will happen when King Yan arrives, because King Yan also needs a lot of officials to help with things.

I do it everywhere, why go all the way to Annan.

Even if they arrived in Annan, they would just continue to be Xia Yuanji's subordinates.

It was different if they stayed in the Wa country. After Xia Yuanji left, the position of head of the civil service was temporarily vacant, and they had new room for advancement.

Even if the King of Yan did not arrange for the chief of civil servants, the civil servants similar to the prime ministers were still imitating the Six Departments of Ming Dynasty.

Besides, this kind of transfer doesn't mean that I will go alone, and there will be a large number of family members.

Under such circumstances, there are still two people who are willing to return to Daming with their family with Xia Yuanji, which shows that they are true confidants.

Zhu Gaochi was worried that Xia Yuanji would not come back, or that his father would not let him go, so he could only fight alone.

Now that I see people, I finally feel relieved.

"When I come back this time, sir, I will take a rest for a few days. His Royal Highness has already arranged for us to go to Annan with the next navy ship, which can save us a lot of traveling."

"I'm in the capital these days, and I have the guidance of His Royal Highness, and there are also many alternate officials who are willing to go to Annan to take office. When the time comes, I will ask you to check the specific personnel."

Zhu Gaochi's tone was very polite. As the eldest son, he always referred to Xia Yuanji as a gentleman, and discussed many things with him.

Xia Yuanji nodded slightly when he heard Shizi say this.

Just in the past few days, he also needs to worship his ancestors. After that, he will go to Annan again, and he doesn't know how long it will take to come back.

Obviously, the situation on Annan's side is more suitable for talents like Zhu Gaochi and Xia Yuanji.

The Wa country still needs to fight, and Annan has already won all of them, and only needs to be governed.

Compared with the Japanese royal family, the Annan royal family is obviously more resigned to fate.

Annan Taishang Huang Chen Yong lost all his power after Ye Sheng abolished the so-called emperor system.

After thinking hard, Chen Yong found Liu Sheng directly.

It was no longer an invitation to come to the palace, but a respectful handing over a letter of worship, and then came to the door in person.

On this day, Chen Yong no longer wore the royal clothes, he was dressed in simple casual clothes, and there were only a few guards around him.

At the door, Chen Yong stopped the guard next to him from wanting to go forward, and said to the guard on duty at the door, "Please pass on, Chen Yong pays his respects to Supervisor Liu. He has already handed over the call letter and made an appointment for today's visit."

The Ming soldier on duty, of course, knew the former Annan Supreme Emperor, and immediately said: "Please wait a moment, I will go in and report."

Chen Yong nodded slightly, but the faces of the guards behind him were ashen.

This is the real king of their Annan. When he was so low-key, he used to summon others, but now he came by himself and waited for someone to announce.

This made them, the imperial guards, feel very aggrieved.

Not long after, the door opened.

Liu Sheng naturally set out to come by himself, bowed at once and said: "It's really my fault, I'm still counting the time, His Highness should have a stick of incense to arrive, I didn't expect to arrive earlier, blame me, blame me."

Liu Sheng said with a face full of self-blame, his tone towards Chen Yong was as respectful as before, as if there was no change in the slightest.

The name is also His Highness, and it seems that he doesn't know that Chen Yong was deprived of the power of the Supreme Emperor by Ye Sheng.

Chen Yong felt a lot more comfortable when he heard Liu Sheng's politeness.

These days, since his power and status were deprived, although he still lives in the palace, it is obviously not as good as before.

Everyone is very clear in their hearts that Annan's world has changed. Although the Annan royal family has reservations, they actually no longer have any power to speak of. It's just a name.

Except for some elderly veterans, most people have no intention of flattering the Annan royal family.

Especially on the side of the generals of Ming Dynasty, even a small official of a hundred households has no respect for the Annan royal family.

Perhaps the only reliance is Annan's eldest princess, Chen Muyue, who is the concubine of His Royal Highness, and this is the biggest fear.

These days, Liu Sheng has been thinking about what his daughter Chen Muyue said when she came back to visit her relatives.

Chen Muyue told Chen Yong.

If a huge change happens to Annan one day, then he must not confront Daming.

The power of Daming and the power of Taisun are existences that Annan can't afford to offend. Not only Annan, but the entire Nanyang region is not worth mentioning in the eyes of His Highness Taisun.

The only way out for Annan in the future is to follow His Highness Taisun's wishes.

After thinking about it, Chen Yong went directly to Liu Sheng.

Because Chen Muyue told him that Liu Sheng was not only as simple as an inspector, but also the eldest disciple of His Highness the Grandson.

Although he was a little puzzled as to why the grandson of the Ming Dynasty had such an old disciple, this did not affect Chen Yong's coming to Liu Sheng to negotiate.

After entering the lobby of Liu Sheng's mansion, Chen Yong waved gently to the guards of the imperial army after exchanging slight greetings.

All the guards retreated.

Seeing this situation, Liu Sheng also nodded.

Soon there were only Chen Yong and Liu Sheng left in the lobby.

"I also ask Supervisor Liu to teach me what to do in the future."

Chen Yong bowed deeply at the moment, and said in a pleading tone.

"Why is this so, Your Highness?" Liu Sheng hurried to help.

Chen Yong was also unambiguous, and said bluntly: "The little girl Mu Yue told me about Liu's identity when she came back to visit relatives last time."

"This time, my Annan royal family has encountered such a catastrophe, and now I don't know where to go, but I ask Liu Jianshi to point out a clear way."

After all, Chen Yong immediately added: "I am not greedy for the power of the royal family, but there are many relatives in this clan, and every night I feel uneasy and can hardly sleep."

Don't expect the generals of the Ming Dynasty to have any intentions of never committing crimes. Although there are no excessive actions on the surface, it is naturally inevitable to take advantage of these things.

Apart from the royal family, a large number of Annan nobles were miserable, and their property was taken away by the generals of the Ming army, and they did not dare to take any action of resistance.

For the Ming army, so many brothers lost their lives when they came all the way to fight Annan, and now of course they need a lot of pension compensation.

No one dared to touch the royal family, no matter what, they were regarded as the in-laws of His Royal Highness the Grandson.

But there is no scruples about those Annan squires and nobles.

Once there is a little resistance, they will be arrested directly, and they will be imprisoned on a random charge. If there are some people, they will be executed.

Dongdu Shenglong is still restrained, but in Annanxidu Qinghua, it is completely unscrupulous.

Some aristocrats who had fled from the disaster cried and asked Chen Yong to call the shots.

However, Chen Yong is also a mud bodhisattva who can't protect himself when he crosses the river, so he can't manage so much.

According to the current situation, in Chen Yong's heart, the Annan royal family seemed to have no support other than Chen Muyue, a life-saving straw.

Obviously, the Annan royal family is now more like a threshold that hinders Ming Dynasty from ruling Annan. Many people, officials, and nobles still miss the Annan royal family.

This is equivalent to roasting Chen Yong on the fire.

Preserving the royal family is obviously a temporary means of Daming. When Annan stabilizes, it is hard to say what will happen next.

Liu Sheng comforted him and said, "Actually, His Highness is worrying too much about these things."

"No matter what it is, Your Highness will be taken care of by Concubine Yue, so naturally you don't have to worry about the safety of the royal family in the future."

"However, since His Highness is here today, let me just say a few more words about His Highness Grandson's meaning."

Chen Yong's eyes lit up, and he bowed and said, "I also ask the envoy Liu to make it clear."

After Liu Sheng pondered for a while, he asked, "Does Your Highness know about the Emperor of Japan and the shogunate system?"

Chen Yong nodded and said, "Of course I know."

Liu Sheng continued: "Now under the leadership of His Royal Highness Taisun, my Ming Dynasty has achieved greater development, whether it is in terms of economy, military, trade, or various infrastructure constructions."

"His Highness Taisun's prestige in Daming has already reached a level almost similar to that of His Majesty. Last year, Beiyuan Khan also reached a peace treaty with His Highness Taisun and established the Beiyuan Employment Guild."

"This is equivalent to saying that the entire north will no longer restrict the development of our Ming Dynasty, and after the manpower is drawn, the remaining direction is maritime trade."

"Whether it's Annan or Champa, it's time for these territories that once belonged to the Central Plains Dynasty to return. This is the general trend."

Hearing this, Chen Yong felt cold and cold in his heart.

Could it be that the Annan royal family really wants to end here.

Liu Sheng saw Chen Yong's worry, and said: "As long as His Highness is willing, His Highness Taisun can canonize His Highness as King Annan, hereditary succession, and enjoy the extra salary of Ming Dynasty."

"Only above the internal affairs and military affairs, His Highness should only be like the Emperor of Japan, and must not interfere in the military and internal affairs."

"After all, Your Highness is my family, and this is the decision His Highness Taisun made because of the face of Concubine Yue."

"After that, Annan will establish a cabinet system, and several cabinet elders will jointly handle Annan's political affairs."
