Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 408 Prohibition of preaching
As a time traveler, Zhu Youjian must not let the smoke and earth disaster spread in Daming, and he must not let Daming follow in the footsteps of the Eastern Captives.

In order to prohibit Yantu (that is, opium, in order to avoid being harmonized, so it is called Yandi), he will not show mercy to anyone, including the sitting ministers.

All the ministers trembled and hurriedly got up to salute:

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, we will definitely promulgate the anti-smoking law within three days, and we will never disappoint your expectations."

Zhu Youjian's face softened slightly, and he waved to them:

"Excuse me, I still have something to discuss with you, please sit down!"

Several high officials of the DPRK and China hurriedly thanked:

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I am all ears."

After the ministers sat down, Zhu Youjian looked at Liu Lishun, Minister of Honghe Temple:

"Minister Honglusi, I heard that there are Western missionaries who are preaching in our Daming territory, and there are quite a few believers. What do you think about this, the cabinet will also talk about it together."

The Minister of Honglu Temple hastily cupped his hands and replied:

"Reporting to Your Majesty, there are indeed some Western missionaries preaching in Daming, and Daming has never interfered in this aspect. If they are not allowed to preach, relevant laws and regulations should be issued, otherwise it will cause diplomatic disputes."

Zhu Youjian nodded slightly:

"Oh, roughly how many countries have diplomatic relations with Daming now? What are the specific situations? I have been busy with internal affairs and neglected this aspect."

Liu Lishun:
"Reporting to Your Majesty, there are more than 20 countries that have diplomatic relations with Ming Dynasty. Except for a few vassal states and some small northern countries, the rest are countries that trade with each other, including Japan, Portugal, Spain, England, and the Netherlands."

Zhu Youjian did not expect that there are so many ambassadors from Ming Dynasty.

If they are all allowed to preach in Daming, after a long time, they will definitely cultivate a group of things that worship foreigners, just like those so-called public intellectuals in our current society.

Zhu Youjian would like to seek the opinions of the cabinet:

"These western countries all have missionaries in Daming, and preaching in Daming is actually an invasion of Western culture. What does the cabinet think?"

Sun Chuanting got up and bowed deeply, and said solemnly:
"Your Majesty, my Chinese civilization has a history of 5000 years, and for thousands of years, all dynasties have followed the idea of ​​loyalty and filial piety as the mainstream.

The three cardinal guides and the five constant rules are obeyed among people, the ruler guides his ministers, the father guides his sons, the husband guides his wife, and the wife guides his husband.The five constants are benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith.

The family obeys the three obediences and the four virtues and fulfills filial piety, and the people and the country abide by the loyalty to serve the country. How can my magnificent China be compared to them in the West? To put it bluntly, when our China entered civilization, they were still monkeys.

What do they know about loyalty and filial piety?Their ancestors don't even want them, are they still human?The cabinet will never allow them to preach in our Daming, which is simply humiliating our Chinese civilization. "

"Clap clap clap...

Before Sun Chuanting finished speaking, applause broke out in the Imperial Study Room. The leader was Zhu Youjian, Emperor of Ming Dynasty.

Several important ministers of the Ming Dynasty nodded frequently, and they all agreed with Sun Chuanting.

Of course, Zhu Youjian agreed with Sun Chuanting's words. Before he traveled, there were religious believers around him. Since those people became religious, they never worshiped their ancestors.

A few years after the grandfather died, the grandson didn't know his grandfather's name because he couldn't see his parents paying homage to his ancestors for a long time.

China has thousands of years of inheritance, and Zhu Youjian cannot let his people forget their ancestors.

"Very good. I am very satisfied with the suggestion of the chief minister of the cabinet, Mr. Sun. The common people hardly read much. They don't know much about the outside world. They are easily bewitched by people with ulterior motives. We need to guide them correctly."

Liu Lishun, Minister of Honghe Temple, bowed again to ask for instructions:
"Your Majesty, I need an imperial decree from you, otherwise it will be very difficult to convince those Western missionaries. If diplomatic disputes arise, it will affect my image of Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Youjian laughed loudly:

"Diplomatic disputes? I don't care. Ai Qing, remember my words, a weak country has no diplomacy, as long as you are strong enough, you will be respected by other countries.

If Zheng He's voyages to the West were to promote the country's prestige, then if Daming goes to the West again now, what Daming wants is benefits.

I will give you an imperial decree first. With the permission of my Ming Dynasty, foreign countries can conduct friendly business with us, but all missionaries must be withdrawn within three days. Da Ming does not allow any country or individual to preach in Da Ming. Violators will be punished on the spot .

Also, if foreigners are found trading opium in Daming, they will be beheaded for public display, and their country is prohibited from doing business with Daming, and their ships are prohibited from approaching the waters of Daming. "

"According to the purpose"

Liu Lishun was a veteran minister during the Chongzhen period, and he had never seen the emperor so domineering and tough before.

After the battle to defend the capital, the emperor who was led by the nose by the civil official group disappeared again.

Although the emperor killed many people, even more ministers than Taizu, all he killed were treasonous and corrupt officials, and he never killed a good person unjustly.

"Your Majesty, there is an urgent military report."

At this time, the little eunuch Er Xi came in, holding a battle report in his hand.

Now the world is at peace, and the only place where war happens is the battle to regain Taiwan.

In the eyes of the ministers, it would be almost impossible to completely recover Taiwan from the Dutch in less than ten days and half a month.

They all looked nervously at the battle report that Er Xi handed over to the emperor, worried that the Daming navy would be unlucky.

After all, the Navy lacks experience in naval warfare, and now the Daming Navy has declined. It was not the time when Zheng He went to the Western Seas to have the strongest fleet in the world.

Of course Zhu Youjian knew very well that the war had been won, the system not only notified him, even the rewards had been issued.

Zhu Youjian took the battle report, and did not open it immediately to read, but handed the battle report to Sun Chengzong, Shangshu of the Ministry of War:
"Sun Aiqing, you should read it first!"

"According to the purpose"

When Sun Chengzong received the battle report, his hands were visibly trembling. Although he was the minister of the Ministry of War, he was really not very clear about the current combat power of the navy. The leader of the navy was Zheng Chenggong.

When Sun Chengzong slowly opened the battle report, other ministers also stretched their necks, wanting to know the result as soon as possible.

It's not right to say that Zheng Chenggong is wrong. Since Taiwan has been recovered, he should send a happy news, but he just sent a battle report, leaving many people in the dark.

"Starting to play Your Majesty, I led an iron-clad warship to sneak attack Zeelandia City on the night of the typhoon and wipe out the Hongmaofan. After Taiwan was occupied by the Hongmaofan for more than 30 years, it returned to the embrace of Ming Dynasty..."

Zheng Chenggong not only reported to Zhu Youjian the situation of the battle to regain Taiwan.

He also stated how to defeat the Dutch rescue fleet and how to let go of the Taiwan governor.

Of course, the Spanish fleet came to provoke and was severely damaged by the iron-clad warships of the Ming army.

The heart that the ministers had been hanging on, finally let go after reading the battle report of the navy's victory in recovering Taiwan, and they all shouted:

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, Congratulations to Your Majesty, our Great Ming Navy managed to regain Taiwan in a short period of time, the Ming army is mighty, and my emperor is holy..."
