Steam Daming: Stop calling me to supervise the country

Chapter 209 Preventing troubles before they happen

I slept in the familiar small courtyard, and went to meet my big brother early the next morning.

Zhu Zhanji still kept his diligence and got up early in the morning. Sun Ruowei was with him, but he didn't see the figure of his concubine Hu Shanxiang. He actually said that Hu Shanxiang was relatively boring, so Zhu Zhanji had not been very interested in seeing her, and everyone knew that Hu Shanxiang was not favored, but the crown princess recognized Hu Shanxiang abnormally, and said that a woman like Hu Shanxiang was a qualified concubine, who did not stick to men and did not occupy his working time.

Because Sun Ruowei did not become a concubine, his mentality still changed to a certain extent, and he had to follow Zhu Zhanji all the time, which was more interesting than Hu Shanxiang. Sun Ruowei was always favored by Zhu Zhanji.

"Big brother."

"Fifth brother."

"Big brother."

"Fifth brother."

As soon as the two met, they were filled with enthusiasm.

"Hello, sister-in-law."

Sun Ruo smiled slightly: "Your Highness, you have to call me sister-in-law."

The title of sister-in-law is given to Hu Shanxiang, but Zhu Zhanchang can't control that much: "It's okay, I'm used to calling me sister-in-law. It's fine for my sister-in-law to call me fifth brother, but it's unfamiliar to call your fifth highness."

Zhu Zhanji took Zhu Zhanchang and sat down and said, "Zhanchang, do you know about the grandfather's Northern Expedition?"

"Understood, the third brother told me on the way back yesterday."

"What's your attitude?"

"Yesterday, the third brother explained that my father asked me to persuade Grandpa Huang."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhan's brow wrinkled slightly. Zhu Zhan's persuasion would still have a certain effect. After all, Zhu Zhan's now has more soldiers than he and his second uncle combined.

Zhu Zhanchang laughed: "But when I saw Grandpa Huang yesterday, I said, you have to fight."

"You boy, if you want to promote it with me, you should suppress it first." Zhu Zhanji also laughed, he is a proper main battle faction.

"Daming has no reason to let the barbarians in the north be so arrogant now that the army is strong and strong. At the same time, the southern Jiaozhi has been pacified, and the Japanese pirates have not dared to approach the coast of our country in recent years. It is time to solve the northern expedition." It's still a little unpleasant.

Zhu Zhanji also agreed with him.

"Zhan Shi, this time it is expected to start after the spring of next year. During this time, my mother's intention is to decide the matter of choosing a concubine for you. My mother will leave it to your two sister-in-law to do this. Tell me what you like."

The prince concubine handed Zhu Zhanchang's choice of concubine to Sun Ruowei and Hu Shanxiang, and also let the two daughters-in-law exercise a little bit, of course, only the first half, and the most important final selection link still has to be done by herself.

Both Li Xiaozhu and Zara are of different races, and it is impossible to become Zhu Zhanchang's main concubine, so both of them will become side concubines. If you count the main concubine who is about to enter the door, the third concubine is certain.

The crown princess was very worried that Zhu Zhanchang would have a child, so she had to put it on the agenda quickly.

"As soon as the news of choosing a concubine for you is released, there are piles of princes and nobles who all want to be your concubine. There are so many people that I am shocked."

It is true that Zhu Zhanchang now holds the power enough to make all princes and princes want to marry him.

Sun Ruowei added tea to the two and asked, "Five halls... The fifth brother, the youngest granddaughter of Duke Qi, the direct daughter of Ping Jiangbo, the granddaughter of Marquis Yuanshan, and the youngest daughter of Duke Yingying, these are quite outstanding."

As soon as I heard about the appearance of Zhang Zhong, the daughter of British Duke Zhu Zhanchang, it would be fine if the two brothers and sisters looked alike.

Moreover, the Ming Dynasty royal family actually had an unwritten rule that they would rarely marry the daughters of high-ranking officials and noble families, and they were worried about foreign relatives interfering in politics.

Taisun Zhengfei's father was just a small official.

The only one among these people that Zhu Zhanchang really cares about is Uncle Ping Jiang's direct daughter. As we all know, Uncle Ping Jiang Chen Xuan has no direct daughter. His direct daughter is the daughter of his adoptive sister, that is, Cao Xinyue.

He hadn't seen Cao Xinyue again in these years, and every letter exchange was a business matter. The conversation was very simple, and it seemed that he deliberately wanted to keep a distance from Zhu Zhanchang.

"Fifth brother, you should have seen this daughter of Ping Jiangbo. I remember that you should be familiar with it."

Zhu Zhanchang nodded.

"Ms. Chen is very famous in Nanjing City, and she is perfect in poetry, books, rituals and music. Those who went to Marshal Chen's house to ask for relatives almost broke the threshold, but she has never agreed. It's a pity that she is more than You need to be two or three years older."

Generally speaking, the concubine will not choose someone older than himself.

Zhu Zhanji patted him on the shoulder: "Zhengfei has to choose well."

This sentence is meaningful, Zhu Zhanchang glanced at Sun Ruowei, her expression did not change.

But I, Zhu Zhanchang, are not like you Zhu Zhanji, I love the world.

……

The next morning, he had to go to Zaochao, so Zhu Zhanchang could only get up early.

It was a lively morning in the early morning. Zhu Gaochi's four sons, Zhu Zhanji, Zhu Zhan, Zhu Zhan, and Zhu Zhan, all arrived, as well as the second uncle Zhu Gaojiu and the third uncle Zhu Gaojiu.

The three generations of the Zhu family are full of talents, and Zhu Di is very happy today. When the court is discussing matters, the top priority today is whether or not to expedite the Northern Expedition.

In the entire Zhu family, only Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Zhanyong disagreed with the Northern Expedition. Zhu Zhanyong was told by Zhu Gaochi first, otherwise he would not be involved in this matter according to his character.

"Prince."

"My son is here."

Sure enough, Zhu Gaochi was called out as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Now that the treasury is full, do you think the Northern Expedition is acceptable?"

"Erchen believes that in recent years, the northern ethnic groups have been considered honest, and they have not violated borders, and have no basis for sending troops.

Zhu Di's good mood was dissipated by Zhu Gaochi's wrong name.

To dare to say that Emperor Yongle's name is not right, Zhu Zhanchang didn't expect Zhu Gaochi to say this, and gave him a cold sweat. My father, I haven't seen you so brave before.

"In the past few decades, the northern barbarians have treacherously slaughtered my people in the Central Plains. You told me that your name is wrong? Going forward a few hundred years, how many years did the northern barbarians bully the Central Plains, and you told me that your name was wrong?"

Zhu Di was instantly furious, and he was really angry.

If you want to know how to annoy Lao Tzu, you have to look at your own son.

Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Zhanchang immediately went out and said in unison, "Grandpa Huang, calm down."

Zhu Di's complexion is a little better. Everyone knows that Zhu Di is definitely going to expedition to the north this time, and most people also think that the current Daming is capable of laying down the grasslands.

No one wanted to touch this mold, only Zhu Gaochi came.

It is a bad thing if everyone in the court is against it, but it is not necessarily a good thing if there is no opposition in the court.

Zhu Zhanji was the first to say: "Grandpa Huang, grandson is willing to lead the army to be the pioneer, and go straight to the fishing sea."

"Grandpa Huang, grandson is also willing to lead the army to start from the west." Zhu Zhanzhen wanted to show himself at the right time.

Zhu Gaojiu immediately stood up and said, "Father, my son is also willing to lead the army."

"They are all my good sons and grandchildren, Zhan Chang." Zhu Di suddenly called his name.

"Grandson is here."

"Why didn't you say that you would lead the troops to fight? You also think it's wrong for me to go on the Northern Expedition?" Zhu Di asked Zhu Zhanchang for his opinion.

Zhu Zhanchang glanced at the pitiful Zhu Gaochi, hey, who is the biological father? I can only help you.

"What my father said is not without reason."

Zhu Zhan's words made Zhu Di frown.

"What's the point?"

Zhu Zhanchang went on to say: "The expedition is to open up the territory and expand the soil, but after the expansion of the territory, you have to recuperate, and the people of the grasslands have to surrender to Daming willingly."

"Oh? Then what do you say?"

"Grandpa Huang, you have assigned titles to several tribes in the north. Why don't you order that the grasslands like the Central Plains are generally divided into multiple administrative divisions for jurisdiction."

Zhu Di's eyes lit up. Because of the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty in recent years, the grassland tribes who were called the top ones were basically given titles. This was the opportunity that Zhu Zhanchang wanted.

"Okay, there's a way."

At this time, a minister came out and asked, "His Royal Highness the Prince of Zhujiang County, what if the barbarians of the grasslands are unwilling and resist?"

"Leading Daming's title and smashing Daming's job, isn't this a treason?"

Isn't this justification enough?

And the reason for this is that in case any tribe is willing to accept the Ming Dynasty's declaration of the Chief Executive's jurisdiction, just like Jiaozhi, it will be divided because of interests, so that there will be fewer enemies.

People in the grassland are more firm than Jiaozhi, but the whole grassland is a ranger and prodigal son who is unwilling to live a stable life. There are always some people who are willing to lead Ming's salary and become a Ming official.

Zhu Di smiled with satisfaction, while Zhu Gaochi sighed. He thought that Zhu Zhanchang had changed his temper, but he didn't expect that he was just saying something to himself for the sake of face. In fact, he helped Zhu Xi to make plans for the northern expedition to the desert.

Zhu Di looked at the extraordinary satisfaction of Zhu Zhanchang, who was now valiant and valiant, and remembered the memorial of Zhang Fu, the British public, that although the Prince of Zhujiang County was not good at leading troops to fight, he would only bombard indiscriminately, but he was shrewd.

"According to this method, the cabinet has studied the distribution of the various tribes in the grassland since today, and divided them as carefully as possible. We will divide the grassland into at least 10 and declare them to be the chief ministers." Zhu Di was very satisfied with Zhu Zhanchang's proposal.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince insisted on his own opinion: "Father, the desert is vast. If you want to conquer it, it may take several years to drag on, and the country's strength will be wasted."

"His Royal Highness is tired today, let's go down first." Zhu Di ignored Zhu Gaochi's advice and let the eunuch lead him down, but there was no punishment.

Zhu Zhanchang didn't quite understand why Zhu Gaochi came out to sing the opposite, and even the civil officials of the Manchu Dynasty did not dare to say so much this time.

After discussing other important matters, Zhu Di suddenly looked at Zhu Zhanchang and smiled kindly: "Zhanchang heard that your mother wanted to decide on your concubine selection a few years ago, what do you think?"

"The orders of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, the grandchildren all obey the mother."

Zhu Di didn't believe his nonsense. When did Zhu Zhanchang become an obedient baby and changed his temper in Guangzhou for a few years?Impossible, he also did amazing things in Guangzhou.

"Let's do this, I have authorized you to participate in the selection of concubine by yourself. Which one do you prefer?"

The main reason is that Zhu Zhanchang will make a fool of himself. He is such a big man. It's not like a child will make trouble. If something happens, the language ability will annoy you to death.

What is this wave?This wave is a precautionary measure.
