Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 475
When Zhu Yunying was raising children, many people were extremely busy at this time.

We must consider the matter of imperial examinations, prepare for spring plowing, and never neglect the promotion of banks and other things.Don't forget that the matter of sharing the land into the mu has officially started now.

The emperor will be very busy, and the civil and military officials below cannot be idle, unless they are some official bastards, otherwise don't think about taking it easy.

After resting in Lian Qiongqiong's bedroom for one night, Zhu Yunying went to court again, and continued to discuss some government affairs.

Only after returning to the Hall of Martial Arts, Zhu Yunying received a secret report from Song Zhong.This is not some investigation report about Xia Yuanji, but some news that Jin Yiwei got from North Korea.

Li Fangqian, the fourth son of Li Chenggui, launched a coup in order to get rid of his younger brother Li Fangyuan. Naturally, Li Fangyuan, who was more powerful, won the victory.This is also the second time that Li Fangyuan has won a complete victory in the "Battle of Seizing the Inheritance". This is also the second time that he eradicated dissidents in the way of the two prince rebellions, and also put Li Chenggui under house arrest.

"This Li Fangyuan sounds a bit like Li Shimin." Zhu Yunying couldn't help laughing, and said, "Helping Li Chenggui establish the Joseon Dynasty, his talents are more outstanding than his elder brother and younger brother. Now, kill brothers, exile brothers, Then he put his father under house arrest and seized power, and it was immediately estimated that he was about to usurp the throne."

These things are really interesting, and Zhu Yunying also thinks that this matter should not be careless.

For people like Li Fangyuan, as an emperor, he would definitely look down on him, and Zhu Yunying also felt that this must be taken seriously.

Therefore, I have to say that the rules established by Lao Zhu at the beginning were very good, and such a battle for succession cannot be allowed to happen in the Ming Dynasty.Speaking of which, if Zhu Yunying hadn't succeeded to the throne now, and if Zhu Yunqi had ascended the throne, some emperor uncles would either be forced to self-immolate or imprisoned.

Of course, the fourth uncle will not found a country in Dongying, but has already raised troops to calm down.

Looking at Song Zhong, Zhu Yunying said, "Let the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple know about this matter."

The emperor can know these things first, but the courtiers should also know about it later.After all, North Korea is a vassal state that Ming Dynasty does not recognize.

In the final analysis, it was Li Chenggui who previously mobilized the Weihua Island to return to the army and took control of the Goryeo regime.He proclaimed himself king and changed the name of the country to Joseon.Even if he cleared the power of the former King of Gaoli and wanted to claim his vassalship to Daming, Daming never recognized it.

In fact, this Li Chenggui is still somewhat capable. He conquered the Jurchen tribe in the northeastern part of the Korean peninsula by appeasement and force, and made his territory reach the Tumen River at the east foot of the main peak of the Changbai Mountains.

Perhaps in the future South Korea and North Korea will never forget 'Baekdu Mountain' because of Lee Sung Gye now.In fact, it is precisely because of this that Changbai Mountain is called "Baitou Mountain" in North Korea.Not only the holy mountain of Jurchen, but also the holy mountain of North Korea.

Song Zhong and the others naturally knew what to do, Jin Yiwei was not just supervising officials now.In fact, the Jinyiwei did not always supervise the officials. Even during the Hongwu Dynasty, when the Jinyiwei was at its most powerful, they did not seldom check the intelligence of surrounding countries.

But now, the focus of Jin Yiwei's work, not to mention focusing on intelligence collection outside of Daming, etc., but it is indeed continuing to increase its efforts.

This is also something that Zhu Yunying is looking forward to. He really doesn't want to be 'infighting' all the time. He still hopes to be able to expand externally.

Zhu Yunying knew very well that if one day he died, it would be 'Taizong' if nothing unexpected happened.After all, the only 'ancestor' of the Ming Dynasty can only be Lao Zhu, the 'great ancestor'.

As Lao Zhu's successor, Zhu Yunying hopes that he can be worthy of the temple title of "Taizong".Of course, if he is not successful, or if little Zhu is not good enough in the future, it is also very likely that the legitimate temple name of "Taizong" will not be obtained.

After a busy day's work, Zhu Yunying sang a ditty and walked towards Qianqing Palace, "Grandfather, Li Fangyuan is making trouble again, and he is exiled by his fourth brother."

Old Zhu was stunned for a moment, and then said, "It's from North Korea again? That bastard, how many times is this causing trouble?! This brother is fighting against the wall, so it's impossible for him to end well."

Zhu Yunying smiled and nodded, and said, "That's why our grandpa Huang is still far-sighted, and we can save a lot of trouble by establishing a son and a son in the Ming Dynasty."

"Speaking of this matter, we want to talk about you." Lao Zhu said angrily, "Although we are established as the head of the lineage, but now these clans of our Ming Dynasty are either in Yingtian Mansion or Beiping Mansion. What's up?"

A large part of the reason why Lao Zhu said this is because in order to cultivate successors, many emperors are used to driving other heirs out of the power center, so as to save a lot of trouble and avoid the situation of seizing the heir.

Zhu Yunying laughed, and said to Old Zhu, "Although our emperor's uncle is now in Yingtian Mansion, our emperor's younger brother is also here. It's just that these clans are under their noses, and they are not afraid of making troubles." matter."

Driving the clan out of the center of power seems to be able to completely cut off some of their ideas that they shouldn't have.But to be honest, it's okay for the clan to be in the center of power. Anyway, it's impossible for these clans to have real access to power and government.

If the clan is released, they can also slowly establish their own power in the local area.As long as some people are not allowed to come into contact with authority, it can basically be more at ease.

Old Zhu looked at Zhu Yunying, and said with a smile, "You came to talk to us about this, I'm afraid you want to mobilize troops first when the time is right?"

"There are four Han counties over there. We are taking back our homeland." Zhu Yunying said with a smile, "We still want to be Taizong in the future, so we have to do something."

Old Zhu pointed at Zhu Yunying, and said with a smile, "You bully me because we don't have enough books? Although there are four Han counties over there, we remember that there are Mahan, Chenhan, and Bianhan in Busan?"

The four counties of Han do not completely occupy the Korean peninsula.However, Sanhan at that time was indeed driven to a place extremely close to Dongying.Most of the Korean peninsula is occupied by the four Han counties.

"It's been shot down there, and it will save a lot of trouble in the future." Zhu Yunying stopped joking and said seriously, "We still miss Yinshan, and Busan Guard is hanging outside, it's not a big deal. Besides, it's now Fourth Uncle is down-to-earth, but it's hard to guarantee that his heirs will live in their duties."

Hearing what Zhu Yunying said, Old Zhu naturally had some thoughts. He didn't think Zhu Yunying just thought too much.

The Iwami Silver Mine, which the Ming Dynasty could not release no matter what, was one of the main sources of silver in the Ming Dynasty.

Now Zhu Di's territory in Dongying is relatively stable, and his strength is constantly growing.The current Zhu Di really didn't dare to confront the Ming Dynasty, basically he didn't dare to make any plans for the Ishijian Silver Mine.

But there is no guarantee that one day Zhu Di's descendants will not think about it. After all, there is too much gold and silver in the Iwami Silver Mine.It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a mountain of gold and silver. With so many good things under your nose, it is hard not to be tempted.

As for the control of the Iwami Silver Mine by the Ming Dynasty, it was naturally the guard station of the Iwami Silver Mine.Busanwei seems to be looking at the Iwami Silver Mine, but it is also across the sea.What's more, Pusanwei is also alone overseas. Maybe Li Fangyuan and the others will think about wrestling with the Ming Dynasty sometime.

Once the guards of the Iwami Silver Mine are destroyed, the source of income of the Ming Dynasty will be affected.Once Busan Guard is breached, it will become more difficult for the Ming Dynasty to increase troops to the Iwami Silver Mine.

Although the two places have special status, they will not simply place a guard.But in the final analysis, there are many uncertainties.

"We have agreed that the North Korean side has been defeated, and your uncle or brother must leave some space for them." Lao Zhu said, "Let's talk, just leave some room. "

Zhu Yunying also understood what Lao Zhu meant. It meant that if the Korean peninsula was conquered, it would definitely be divided up.But it is not completely sealed off. Strategically important places like Busanwei should also be linked with Liaodong.

Otherwise, the embarrassment of Pusan ​​Wei and the embarrassment of Iwami Silver Mine will still exist.

"This grandson naturally knows." Zhu Yunying laughed, and said to Lao Zhu, "Grandfather, if you really talk about it, do you think it would be better for Fu Youde to go there, or should we let Lan Yu go?"

Old Zhu thought about it carefully, and said, "Lan Yu still wants to hold back the Northwest, and sooner or later you will mobilize troops there. This time, let Feng Cheng and Chang Mao stay at Yingtian Mansion, and Fu Youde takes Xu Huizu out."

Chang Mao and Feng Cheng stayed in Yingtian Mansion to help Zhu Yunying control the capital camp.Even though it seems that the Ming Dynasty doesn't need to worry about the self-respect of someone holding soldiers, it's just that the emperor is easily paranoid, and military power is very sensitive.

Let Chang Mao and Feng Cheng stay in Yingtian Mansion. Although they have limited talents, they are absolutely loyal and reliable.

It is easy for Xu Huizu to follow Fu Youde. One is to worry about Fu Youde's age, and the other is to let Xu Huizu learn from him again and learn to lead the army.Who made the Ming Dynasty stable now, with relatively few battles and limited battles in the large corps, Xu Huizu still needs further training.

Zhu Yunying couldn't help laughing, and said to Lao Zhu, "It's just right, the new weapon from our Institute of Engineering can be used for practice."

Lao Zhu didn't say much, but continued, "It just so happens that there are a lot of our soldiers in Liaodong. They were driven away by Meng Yuan before, and there have been soldiers in Liaodong these years. Speaking of which, those people in North Korea should not be underestimated. Meng Yuan works under him. Over the years, he has also absorbed a lot of Meng Yuan's remnants and Jurchen savages."

Lions fighting rabbits also need to use all their strength.

Old Zhu is full of confidence in the military power of the Ming Dynasty, but he absolutely does not want to see Zhu Yunying being blindly confident.North Korea is really not very easy to fight.
