Chapter 233: Li Xian’s experience in the capital, I just despise Annan!What can you do to me?
Chapter 233: Li Xian’s experience in the capital, I just despise Annan!What can you do to me?
"Tell Lu Gao that if something goes wrong in Jiangxi, I will embed his head on the gate tower of Meiguan!"
On the first day of December, Zhu Qiyu received the report from Guangdong.
"Hou Chen committed suicide?"
"Where are Hou Chen's family?"
Zhu Qiyu asked Feng Xiao.
Feng Xiao trembled all over: "Go back to your Majesty, my family members are all in my hometown."
Even the princes and ministers dared to die, so their families must have been settled.
And Hou Chen is from Zhejiang.
This is Zhu Qiyu's weakest point.
If you go to kill the nine tribes, you probably won't be able to catch the rightful owner.
"At my hometown?"
Zhu Qiyu had a fierce look on his face: "Have your ministers whipped to death and hang them on the city gate of Guangzhou and never take them down!"
"Capture the nine clans and execute them!"
"Another decree is issued that all officials in the world and all their direct family members within three generations must settle in the capital for one year. Those who fail to enter the capital will be dismissed from their official positions and executed personally!"
Feng Xiao put his head on the ground: "Your Majesty, how many levels will it be executed to?"
"It is tentatively decided that from the ninth level and above, family members must move to the capital!"
"Those without family members are not allowed to be officials."
The incident involving Hou Chen served as a warning to him.
Emperor Taizong guarded against theft of military power and ordered his family members to stay in Beijing.
But there are not many restrictions on civil servants.
There are many reasons. Civil servants cannot rebel against the emperor. Moreover, Emperor Yongle needed to make political transactions with civilian officials at that time.
This gave civil servants great power.
But this time is different.
Officials entrenched themselves with the powerful gentry to form the gentry, and colluded with maritime merchants, salt merchants, iron merchants, etc. to form a large network that prevented the power of the central government from entering the local area.
The center and the place began to separate.
And Zhu Qiyu was an emperor who grasped power very much.
Controlling the families of civil servants can also control the civil servants of the world.
And the imperial edict was spread.
Suddenly caused an uproar.
The courtiers expressed strong opposition, and Chen Wen, the minister of official affairs, wrote directly to the emperor, hoping that the emperor would not stop eating because of choking, because the loyal people of the world would be blamed for a mouse excrement.
These remarks were approved by the Hanlin Academy and the Imperial College.
The capital is home to a large number of literati.
There are several Wenzong leaders, such as Tang Yinji, Su Ping, Su Zheng and other Wenzong leaders. They all wrote poems to satirize the emperor's pettiness.
On the contrary, he is a master of Neo-Confucianism and has a strict tone about this.
Because Wu Yubi did not dare to ridicule the emperor, he was ridiculed and his status declined slightly.
In the capital, three people become tigers.
However, Hu Hui, Yu Qian and others remained silent. They were forming a flood control department.
There was an abnormality in the palace.
The emperor was silent, and the mocking voices in the capital became more and more intense.
Strangely, important ministers, Neo-Confucian masters, and clan members all remained silent and refused to comment.
However, Zhu Qiyu issued an imperial edict to meet Wang Fu, a famous general in Liaodong.
Wang Fu's health was so bad that he returned to Beijing to take care of himself at the beginning of the seventh year of Jingtai. He has not been seen for nearly two years. Zhu Qiyu thought this old guy was dead.
Today, he suddenly visited the palace.
"Old general, your grandson Wang Xuan is really brilliant in the martial arts hall."
Zhu Qiyu smiled brightly: "I think your grandson can take over from you!"
Wang Fu has been in charge of Liaodong for more than [-] years and is known as a famous general.
But I didn't do much, and I was considered a general who defended the city.
Just old and reliable.
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty!" Wang Fu's hair turned white, his voice was loud, and he didn't look like he was about to die.
"Old General, why did you enter the palace? Tell me, I will agree to every request."
Zhu Qiyu must seize the military class.
He forcibly moved the families of local officials to Beijing, which was challenging the bottom line of civil servants.
That's why Wang Fu entered the palace.
Come to embolden the emperor.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty!"
Wang Fu kowtowed and said: "I still want to go to the battlefield again and earn a title for my unfilial children and grandchildren!"
However, Zhu Qiyu walked down the steps and helped him up personally: "Old general, you are in poor health. You should be raised in the capital and be used as a sea-calming needle for me."
"Your grandson Wang Xuan is not bad. Sooner or later he will earn the title of earl for your family!"
That's all Wang Xuan's abilities are.
Although Chen You praised him, he did not say that Wang Xuan had the qualifications to be a famous general, but he was just a general. It was difficult to make him a marquis.
Wang Fu's face showed bitterness: "So I want to make use of my last few years to earn a count for the family. If Wang Xuan earns a marquis, it will be considered an honor for me to belong to the Wang family!"
This is asking for a title.
It will definitely be no problem for Wang Fu to go out with the commander-in-chief.
But he was in poor health. If the general died on the way to the expedition, it would be very unlucky to destroy the morale of the army.
But the veteran’s heart cannot be ignored.
"Old general, can your body still support the expedition?" Zhu Qiyu helped him sit down.
Wang Fu knelt down and said with a smile: "Although I am sick, I can eat three bowls of rice at a meal and poop three times a day, so I can still fight for your majesty!"
This is borrowed from Lian Po's words.
Can Lian Po still eat when he is old? There is another sentence at the end: Although General Lian is old, he still has a good appetite, but he sat with me and pooped three times in a short time.
Wang Fu didn't understand the meaning and used the wrong allusion.
This is after Lian Po defected to Wei, when King Zhao Daoxiang sent someone to contact Lian Po, the spy reported back, which meant that Lian Po had diarrhea just after eating and his health was no longer good.
"Hahaha!"
Zhu Qiyu laughed and said: "Old General Zhuangzhao, you have been in Liaodong for many years. There will be a war in Liaodong next year. I can order you to go to Liaodong and lead the army to go on an expedition. How about it?"
Wang Fu kowtowed to the ground and said, "Thank you for your majesty's favor. I will live up to your majesty's high expectations, fight for the country, and ennoble my descendants!"
After chatting for a while, the old man was obviously in low spirits.
Zhu Qiyu sent him away.
Looking at his back, Zhu Qiyu sighed: "Beauty grows old, but the general grows old."
"If he were a few years younger, a count wouldn't be able to stop him."
"Wang Fu is capable, but he was born at the wrong time."
Feng Xiao reported back: "Your Majesty, I heard that Wang Fu took medicine today and became brighter. The imperial doctor said that he has run out of energy."
"I see."
"But at this time, he dares to enter the palace to support me, which shows his loyalty and bravery."
Zhu Qiyu withdrew his gaze: "Loyal bones are buried everywhere in the mountains, why return them wrapped in horse leather?"
"If Wang Fu is not dead next year, he will be carried to the battlefield. How can the old general die on the bed?"
"Having him die on the battlefield would be the greatest honor in his life!"
Zhu Qiyu helped him.
Let him become a monument to the Ming Dynasty.
"Loyalty bones are buried everywhere in the green mountains, why return the body wrapped in horse leather."
Feng Xiao muttered these words: "Your Majesty, is this a poem written by you?"
Zhu Qiyu was stunned. Isn't this the pair on Yue Fei's tomb?
"I read it in miscellaneous books." Zhu Qiyu said perfunctorily. He didn't know who the author was (Gong Zizhen). It was nonsense and he continued to deal with the memorial.
Feng Xiao was still reciting this sentence, and the more he recited it, the more powerful he felt.
Not long after, Feng Xiao whispered: "Your Majesty, Prince Jing was caught by the Yin of Shuntian Prefecture for teasing a good woman."
This is provoking trouble and deliberately lowering your title.
Zhu Qiyu responded and frowned. He read Liu Zhenhai's memorial over and over again. Things in Guangdong were not as simple as they appeared.
"Tell Liu Zhenhai to transport all the seized foreign goods to Beijing and let me see what they are."
"The slaves obey the order."
When it was getting dark, Geng Jiuchou walked into the palace quickly. He was wearing a large cloak outside his official robe and a sweater under his official robe, and his steps were hurried.
After entering the Yangxin Hall and saluting, Geng Jiuchou took out a memorial: "Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from Henan that there is a rebellion among the people in Huaiqing Mansion."
Zhu Qiyu's pupils shrank, and he immediately thought of the money coming to Beijing.
After he opened it, he read quickly.
The place for the rebellion was chosen well, Wuzhi, which could cut off the Si River, and Wuzhi was the only way for money to enter Beijing.
"What do you think?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
"Your Majesty, Wuzhi is located in a flat area and is not a place for kings and hegemons."
"Furthermore, the Ministry of Revenue received a report from the Henan Qing Li Department two years ago. Henan's warehouses are sufficient. It's winter again. If there is no disaster, there should be no civil unrest."
"Weichen speculates that this has something to do with Jiangxi's silver."
So Geng Jiuchou quickly entered the palace.
Discuss with the emperor alone.
"A small rebellion is nothing."
Zhu Qiyu said calmly: "Although Lin Cong is not a famous general or minister, this matter will not trouble Lin Cong, so don't worry about it."
"But what's behind this incident scares me."
"Jiangxi's money can actually encourage the people of Henan to rebel."
"When all the money comes to Beijing, will there be a rebellion in the capital?"
Geng Jiuchou's expression changed slightly: "Your Majesty, why not send troops immediately to clean up the bandits in the capital?"
The bandits in Gyeonggi Province are all afraid of being swept away.
They are the best training targets.
It was used by Yang Xin and Li Zhen for military training; by Ren Li for military training; by Song Jie and Song Wei; and now it is used by Fan Guang and Yu Kang for military training.
Even in martial arts halls and practical classes, students would lead troops to suppress bandits.
"Do not."
"If you do this, you will fall into someone else's trap."
Zhu Qiyu said quietly: "The struggle between the various forces in the capital can be described as turbulent."
"Soldiers from the capital camp and the Jiumen Admiral's Mansion must not leave the capital."
"It's winter again. If we force our soldiers to train, I'm afraid it will cause a backlash."
Geng Jiuchou was also thinking.
Yu Qian, Fan Guang, Yu Kang, Chen You, Cao Yi, Mao Zhong, Gao Li, Wang Fu and other generals are defending the capital, so the center is safe.
Huaiqing Mansion is just a small mess.
But how can we seize the opponent's tail and take advantage of the enemy from a small chaos?
"Your Majesty, why don't we abandon Huaiqing Mansion and let the war burn to the capital."
"First, clean out those who are not loyal to the Ming Dynasty, fill them in the border fortress, and fill the population of Jehol in the northwest."
"Secondly, the pressure on Gyeonggi will be relieved."
Geng Jiuchou used the capital as bait and watched the rebels grow bigger.
Then send troops to destroy them and consume the population.
"No way!"
"A single spark can start a prairie fire."
"It's easy to burn it down, but it's so hard to rebuild it!"
Zhu Qiyu even suspected that he was a spy. How could he come up with such a stupid idea?
The rebellion in Huaiqing Mansion was probably caused by the transit of money. As long as a group of people were killed and a group of people were exiled, it would be suppressed.
It is best if the rebellion is controlled in Huaiqing Mansion or even Wuzhi.
"Can a single spark start a prairie fire?" Geng Jiuchou chewed on these words.
"I read it in miscellaneous books, I don't know who said it." Zhu Qiyu said something shocking again.
This sentence was said by Zhang Juzheng, and who later carried it forward.
"The rebellion must be extinguished quickly. All the prisoners must be packed into the northwest. Gan and Ning are short of people, so just fill them in large numbers."
Zhu Qiyu said: "I am thinking about how to pinch the enemy's nose and make them use it for me?"
No one knows the key enemy, so how can you pinch your nose?
"By the way, has Annan's envoy arrived in Beijing?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
Annan's envoy arrived in Beijing on a ship belonging to the Guangdong Shipping Department and Liu Zhenhai's letter.
"Already arrived in Beijing."
"Xiao Weizhen is gone, who will be the minister of Honglu Temple?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
"Your Majesty, this is Qi Zheng, the former Zuo Shaoqing of Honglu Temple."
Zhu Qiyu nodded, recognizing Qi Zheng's ability: "Where is Taichang Temple? At the beginning of the year, Jiang kept his promise and reported illness and was bedridden. Can he still be in charge now?"
In the Ming Dynasty, foreign guests were received and returned to Taichang Temple.
Diplomacy is under the jurisdiction of Honglu Temple.
"Your Majesty, Jiang Siqing is in good health, but Xi Shaoqing is still here to assist you." Geng Jiuchou reported back.
Zhu Qiyu nodded: "Tell Qi Zheng and Jiang to keep their promise and entertain them well."
"Your Majesty, do you need someone from the Cabinet to coordinate?" Geng Jiuchou asked the emperor's level of attention.
"No need, just an envoy from a small country."
"Qi Zheng and Jiang kept their promise to entertain him, which is beyond the standard."
"There's no need to hold a big court meeting, I'm too lazy to see them."
"From now on, envoys from small countries will be received according to this standard. Unless there are special circumstances and I will issue a special order to see them, there is no need to see them."
Zhu Qiyu sent Geng Jiuchou away.
There were more and more voices from the capital mocking the emperor.
Newspapers were selling like hot cakes, and all kinds of short poems appeared in an endless stream, which satisfied the masses.
Li Xian, who had just come to Beizhili, was blinded by the prosperity of the capital. When he was sent as an envoy to the Ming Dynasty, he knew the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty.
Poverty limited his imagination.
The prosperity he thought was just a little more prosperous than Hanoi.
Even, maybe not as good as Hue, the old capital of Annam.
As a result, when the ship passed Wuhan, everyone was confused. How could there be such a majestic city in the world.
Wuhan was still under construction. It was ordered by the emperor to build a huge city in Hubei and carry out a large expansion on the original city to connect the north and the south and occupy Jingchu.
When crossing Kaifeng, although Kaifeng is ancient, the prosperity of the old capital is still not comparable to Hanoi and Hue.
I thought the shock along the way was enough.
But when entering the capital.
The first reaction is big!Ridiculously big!
The new city is still under construction outside the city. When the new city is completed, the capital will more than quadruple in size and become the huge capital of the Ming Dynasty.
There are so many cars and people, so don’t compare it to Hanoi. The most popular place in Hanoi is Wanping County in Shuntian Prefecture.
Li Xian is really squandering flowers and gradually becomes charming.
The capital is a city that never sleeps.
The emperor ordered that there would be no closing hours for the market, and the night market would be more prosperous than during the day.
Although it is already the twelfth lunar month of winter, the cold still cannot stop the people of the capital from being generous. They spend the day in the club and go to the night market to drink and talk.
Li Xian’s biggest feeling: There are so many people!Rich people!Proud people!
There seemed to be more people in the capital of the Ming Dynasty than in the entire Annan!
Moreover, all of them were dressed in brocade robes, with arrogance on their brows, looking at him as if they were looking at a country bumpkin.
He also found a strange piece of clothing, made of wool, with short sleeves and sleeves. It looked like the clothes of barbarians, worn underneath to keep warm.
But they sell very well in the capital and are hard to find.
Although the dignitaries don't like it very much.
But it is the favorite of middle-class people.
Some traveling men and women are proud to wear sweaters. It is said that in the countryside, a medium-sized sweater can be used as a betrothal gift to get a daughter-in-law.
Li Xian also bought one to wear, but found that it was too tight.
But the price is too cheap.
Some people say that this is His Majesty's grace, allowing the people to have clothes to wear. It can be seen that the people admire the current emperor very much.
Li Xian spent a few days in the capital.
I also participated in several literary conferences.
He also speaks Chinese, has read poetry and books since childhood, and can also write and write.
But the poem written by Wenhui seems to be slandering the current saint!
He was so frightened that he urinated and left in a hurry, never daring to attend the poetry gathering again.
What surprised him was that the emperor was so broad-minded?
Folk poems mocked him, did he really pretend that it never happened?
During the day, I wandered around the capital, and at night I stayed at the Seiyi Pavilion.
Siyi Pavilion is under the management of Taichang Temple.
When the Siyi Pavilion was first established, it was a translation department. Over time, it became a hotel for foreign guests to stay. Taichang Temple Admiral supervised the affairs.
What Li Xian was most dissatisfied with was the Siyi Pavilion. The living environment was too poor, drafts leaked from everywhere, and the food served every day was unpalatable.
The Siyi Pavilion is under the control of Xi Jiayan, the young minister of Taichang Temple.
But this Xi Jiayan was proficient in palindrome. He spent every day in the Huihui library, studying palindrome.
After being scolded by the emperor last time, he took his heart back and studied his knowledge. Instead, he was often praised by the emperor.
As for Li Xian's stay, he didn't care at all.
Li Xian sent people to find the minister of Taichang Temple, thinking that Ming Dynasty did not receive him with the courtesy of a prince, which was contempt for Annan.
Annan's envoys argued hard and gave Jiang Shouyue a headache.
Jiang Shouyue is studying the text.
Like Xi Jiayan, he knew that he was not very capable, and if he wanted to gain a foothold in the court, he must have unique skills.
It happened that he was well-read and had a talent for languages, so he began to study foreign languages and gained a lot, especially in the study of Zhenwen, which was unparalleled.
"Mr. Ruan, this is the Ming Dynasty's etiquette for entertaining foreign envoys, that's right."
Jiang Shouyue wiped his face.
Ruan Min, Annan's envoy, had a leaky mouth and sprayed saliva all over his face.
"How can this be the etiquette for entertaining a prince?"
Ruan Min was also a Ming Dynasty official and thought that Jiang Shou had deceived him: "Jiang Siqing, this is not the first time we have dealt with each other. I will appeal to His Majesty the Emperor at the court meeting!"
"Stop!"
Jiang Shouyue was upset by the quarrel, and his face darkened: "This is the etiquette revised by His Majesty years ago, and it is set as the norm. This is His Majesty's intention."
He was too embarrassed to say it was a new contract, so he said it had been a year.
The envoys of Wala and Tatar were also treated in this way.
"How is it possible? The Holy Emperor of the Ming Dynasty has a broad mind and is a saint descended from heaven. How can he descend upon me the courtesy of the court?" Of course Ruan Min didn't believe it.
"This is not the etiquette for surrendering to Annan. This is the etiquette for all foreign princes."
Jiang Shouyue issued an eviction order: "You go and argue with Honglu Temple about this matter. I have important matters, so I won't send you far away."
"What is your attitude!"
Ruan Min was anxious. This was clearly a push-over. He must have suffered retaliation from Taichang Temple because he did not give a gift.
Seeing that he still refused to leave, Jiang Shouyue sneered: "Among the envoys who came to the Ming Dynasty, there were not many envoys from Oara and Tatar. They were all disemboweled. You can still sit in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, so be content."
Ruan Min didn't understand.
what does it mean?
He ran to Honglu Temple, found Qi Zheng, and asked Qi Zheng to receive them with the courtesy of a prince.
"Are you mentally ill?"
Qi Zheng looked unkind: "Because of this matter, are you interrupting my work? Do you know how big a deal it is to delay me!"
Ruan Min was stunned.
Everyone in this Ming Dynasty has been fed up with gunpowder, so why are they so ugly?
Taichang Temple is busy, and Honglu Temple is also busy.
Why are the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty so busy?
"Master Siqing."
"I just hope to be received with formal courtesy."
"Instead of treating me, His Highness the Prince of Annan Kingdom, like pigs and dogs!"
"This is disrespectful to His Royal Highness."
Ruan Min argued hard.
Qi Zheng's face darkened and he put down the file: "When I first met you, I told you that I would receive you according to the etiquette of a prince."
"It is the highest courtesy to place you in the Sei Pavilion."
"and also!"
"Today is not the day for Annan's envoys to meet with Ming officials."
"You have violated the rules. According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, I can take you down on the spot."
"do you know?"
Qi Zheng was very angry.
He is sorting out the files from North Korea. After the files are sorted out, they will be sent to the palace.Your Majesty is waiting to see.
Honglu Temple is also trying to increase revenue and reduce expenditure, and find ways to make money to satisfy the emperor.
So Honglu Temple is very busy.
"Get out!"
Qi Zheng didn't bother to scold him.
Sit down again, pick up the brush, and reclassify the files according to the latest information.
This is top-secret information, just coming from North Korea.
In some cases, if it is different from what is recorded in the dossier, the contents of the dossier must be corrected.
Because it is top secret, he can only do it himself.
He was about to open the file, but found that Ruan Min hadn't left yet.
"Master Temple Minister, let's not talk about etiquette for the moment."
“Can you please hire someone to repair the doors and windows?”
"The capital is cold and the doors and windows are leaking."
"His Royal Highness has caught a cold."
"So please, Sir, please be accommodating."
Ruan Min could only lower his attitude.
The Ming Dynasty defeated the Oara and Tatars, and its force was strong, and its people were naturally tough.
Ruan Min endured it.
The problem is that they have to stay in the Siyi Pavilion, and the doors and windows belong to the Siyi Pavilion, so they are not allowed to repair them.
We can only ask Qi Zheng to be accommodating.
"This matter is not under the jurisdiction of Honglu Temple. You can go find Taichang Temple."
Qi Zheng drove people away impatiently.
Then keep working.
At Taichang Temple, Jiang Shouyue saw Ruan Min coming again, and said impatiently: "Didn't I ask you to go to Honglu Temple?"
"Sir, I would like to ask you to repair the doors and windows. This is the cost of repairing the doors and windows."
Ruan Min learned well.
Give me a gold ring.
Jiang Shouyue jumped up in fright: "What are you going to do? Are you going to bribe me?"
"This is the cost of repairing the doors and windows." Ruan Min laughed along.
"Hurry up."
Jiang Shouyue looked at the door and saw someone walking: "You can bear witness to me. I will confiscate nothing."
Ruan Min was confused. Ming officials were good at taking cards.
Why are you so afraid of gold?
Is it too little?
Ruan Min glanced at the two officials passing by outside. Do they still have to give them away?
Too greedy!
"Foreign Ambassador Ruan, this is the Ming Dynasty!"
"It's not you Annan!"
"I'll put an end to all your tricks!"
Jiang Shouyue angrily rebuked: "Just tell me when you are repairing the door, why insult me with these pickled things!"
Ruan Min was stunned. When did you become so innocent?
Last time I gave you a huge piece of jade, and you were so happy that you couldn't help but forget it?
"The foreign minister knows the crime." Ruan Min didn't understand where Jiang Shouyue sang.
"Just repairing doors and windows?"
"I know, please go back."
Jiang Shooyue sat down again and continued to read the text: "I am busy with government affairs. If there is nothing important, please do not disturb me."
Why are Ming officials so busy?
"May I ask Mr. Jiang, when will the foreign ministers and others be able to meet you?"
Ruan Min was ordered by Emperor Annan to pay tribute to two elephants.
In fact, I just want to repair the relationship with Daming again.
The Ming Dynasty defeated Oara and the Tatars, and the suzerain country became stronger again. Annan naturally had to be a good licker.
In fact, Annan, a licking dog, became disobedient after taking back Jiaozhi from the Ming Dynasty. He began to attack the Ming Dynasty's dependent countries everywhere, and did not take the Ming Dynasty seriously.
Now this runaway dog wants to return to the arms of the Ming Dynasty.
"Your Majesty is busy with government affairs and has no time to see you. If you need anything, just go and communicate with Honglu Temple."
Jiang Shouyue wrote something while reading.
Ruan Min can't understand it, it's not Chinese characters anyway.
"We are not in a hurry to return. We can wait until His Majesty has some free time to issue an edict to the foreign ministers." Ruan Min lowered his posture.
Jiang Shouyue raised his head and frowned: "Can't you understand people?"
"How can a mere envoy from Annan be qualified to meet His Majesty?"
"Honglu Temple is enough for communication."
"If you have nothing to do, please leave."
"Don't disturb my office!"
Ruan Min's face was full of confusion: "Master Jiang, we send auspicious auspiciousness to your majesty. We would like to present it to you in person and ask for your tolerance and tolerance."
Snapped!
Jiang Shouyue put down his brush: "You can't understand people, can you?"
"What auspiciousness, just a few broken elephants, trying to deceive His Majesty?"
"I'm tired of living!"
"Here comes someone, beat him out with a stick!"
"Don't let him in from now on!"
Jiang Shouyue was angry: "Everyone get out!"
Do you think this official is as idle as you Annan officials?
If Zhan Wen cannot study thoroughly, I will not be able to save my head!
After Ruan Min was kicked out.
Everyone was confused. Is this the Ming Dynasty?
Why is everyone so busy?
Watching the officials in Taichang Temple coming and going, they were all running quickly. After saying hello to each other, they left quickly, everyone was busy.
Ruan Min thought back to Taichang Temple in Annan. It was a place for leisure people.
Ruan Min returned to his residence in a daze.
Li Xian asked, when did the Ming Emperor order to see them?
"I'm afraid the Ming Emperor will never be seen again." Ruan Min recounted what he saw on the road and what Jiang Shouyue and Qi Zheng said.
Li Xian and others were surprised.
Annan obeyed the Ming system.
It can be seen from Li Xian's name that Li Jun, the contemporary emperor of Annan.
They are all named according to the five elements.
Plagiarized name of the Ming Emperor.
"No wonder Ming Dynasty has become so powerful."
"It turns out that people do their best, the government operates quickly, and the world is like an arm."
"The two capitals and thirteen provinces have become so terrifyingly powerful as they are twisted into one rope!"
"Only then can we have terrifyingly powerful combat power and be able to repel powerful enemies."
Li Xian's face was full of envy: "I really want to see His Majesty the Emperor!"
Ruan Min smiled bitterly: "Old minister, let's think of another way."
The next day, Ruan Min went to Honglu Temple to negotiate between the two countries.
"Want to meet His Majesty?"
Qi Zheng showed a strange smile and said: "Yes, as long as Annan returns Jiaozhi to the Ming Dynasty, I will go to the palace to ask for an imperial edict from your majesty to see you."
Ruan Min smiled bitterly and said: "Sir, you know that Jiaozhi fell into the arms of Annan himself. Annan never dared to compete with the Celestial Empire."
Yes, you do have a lot of arguments.
We also want to break away from the Ming Dynasty and become the sovereign state on the sea!
Are the wings hard?
Why is it soft now?
"This is the condition, there is no need to negotiate."
Qi Zheng said: "By the way, your majesty has no interest in the elephant that you offered and returned the same way. Ming Dynasty will not provide it with any food."
what?
Elephants are our national treasures.
"The elephant is a symbol of good luck, good health and longevity."
"These two heads are divine images that can distinguish each person."
"I have been searching hard for several years before finding a pair."
"This is to present the donation to the Emperor of Heaven to show your sincerity."
Ruan Min is just bragging.
Elephants are designed to recognize people, and their memories are particularly good.
But Qi Zheng felt that the elephant was too edible.
The rare beasts in the Royal Forest Garden were all sold by the emperor. Those that could not be sold were opened in a zoo for the people to pay to see.
However, the ticket price was too expensive. Ticket sales were okay when the park opened, but then gradually cooled down.
The money I make is not enough to raise animals.
The emperor decreed that these wild beasts should be transported to the south of the Yangtze River to be sold. If they couldn't be sold, they would be released.
Those breeding officials were all demoted.
Now there is no one in the royal family who knows how to raise an elephant.
"Stop!"
Qi Zheng said calmly: "The Heavenly Kingdom does not want this thing, so there is no need to discuss it further."
"This is dedicated to His Majesty. Even if His Majesty dislikes it, there should be an imperial edict or an oral instruction to pass it down!"
Ruan Min just wanted to take the opportunity to ask for an audience with the emperor.
Qi Zheng did not dare to disturb the emperor.
"I can make the decision on this matter!"
"Can Mr. Qi surpass His Majesty and become His Majesty's master?" Ruan Min is so courageous.
Qi Zheng was so frightened that he kowtowed in the direction of the Forbidden City until his forehead was swollen. Then he looked back and sneered: "Are you sure you want to see His Majesty?"
"I would like to offer my auspicious blessings, of course, to meet His Majesty."
"Don't blame me for not reminding you. Some things can still be undone before they reach that point." Qi Zheng didn't dare to tell the truth.
Anyway, the envoys who saw the emperor were either dead or staying in the palace as eunuchs.
There is no going back.
Ruan Min believes that the emperor of the Celestial Dynasty is the best to deceive. If he says something nice, he will show favor to others for the sake of face.
A hair from the emperor's leg was enough to live for Annan for ten years.
Therefore, Li Xian and Ruan Min insisted on meeting the emperor.
"That's all, I'll pass it on for you." Qi Zheng realized that he was very incompetent.
Zhu Qiyu was reading the memorial presented by Fang Ying. Regarding Guangxi's arrangements, he sighed: "It's a pity, it's not all work!"
He hasn't decided yet how to deal with Lu Gao.
The purpose of the Tiqi is already useless. Let's break it up and enter the factory guard. There is no need to exist alone.
"Your Majesty, it has been reported from Honglu Temple that Annan's envoy must meet you." Feng Xiao took advantage of the emperor's tea break to speak.
"Qi Zheng can't handle this?"
Zhu Qiyu put down the tea cup: "Incompetent person!"
"I think he is good at intelligence but not diplomacy. He should join the Military Discipline Department. His rank will remain unchanged."
"Xuan come in, I'll meet them."
"Your Majesty, are you issuing an imperial edict here?" Feng Xiao believed that such an edict would not demonstrate the power of the Ming Dynasty.
"Strongness does not lie in how you say it, but in your true strength."
"Stop doing those vain things."
"If they dare not obey, I will use the army to beat them until they obey!"
Zhu Qiyu hates the kind of blowing that relies entirely on mouth and can't do anything else except blowing.
The strength of a great country is always achieved through fighting.
He stood up and moved.
Then he picked up the ink pen and wrote on Fang Ying's memorial: "The affairs of Guangdong and Guangxi are all in your hands. There is no need to be taboo about the center. Don't be afraid if the Guangdong and Guangxi are messed up."
“True peace comes after chaos.”
"However, the people are the main focus, and the smaller the war, the better. Try not to harm the fish in the pond. The affected people should try to compensate as much as possible."
"List the urgently needed money, goods and materials, and I will allocate them as soon as possible to restore the vitality of Guangdong and Guangxi."
"Guangxi wolf soldiers will be placed in Guangdong. You can decide the amount."
"After Guangdong is razed, Qiongzhou Prefecture will also be razed, but the natives cannot be resettled. Some Han people will be moved there to educate the local people."
"Xue Yuan, the new governor of Guangdong, has great talents. You should use them as appropriate."
"To govern Guangdong, we must first control the sea. If the sea is level, Guangdong will be level."
"To govern the sea, you need ships."
"Zhu Yong must be firmly stationed in Guanghaiwei. No one is allowed to move. Shipbuilding is the most important thing."
"The governance of Guangdong also depends on the sea. When the sea opens, Guangdong will be prosperous. After you take charge of Guangdong, you can order the people to go fishing in the sea as appropriate. There is no need to be too restrictive."
"The prosperity of Guangdong lies first in trade, followed by seafood, salt, fruits and vegetables, etc. Inland, seafood, fruits and vegetables are scarce, but they must find ways to transport them."
Zhu Qiyu wrote a long and lengthy text of more than ten thousand words, but his thoughts are still unfinished.
He really didn't take the chaos in Huizhou Prefecture seriously.
Because Ou Xin is here, he can't make trouble. With this chaos, Ou Xin's reward can be returned.
Fang Ying has turned back and is about to pacify Guangdong.
The top priority is how to govern Guangdong and even Guangxi.
Seeing the emperor writing rapidly, Feng Xiao waited until the emperor finished writing, read it again in detail, corrected the typos, and then closed the memorial.
He then added: "Your Majesty, Prince Annan is already waiting in the side hall."
"Well, come in Xuan."
Zhu Qiyu felt that there was something to add, so he took up his pen and added another sentence: "If you go ahead and do it in Guangdong, I will support you!"
Li Xian and Ruan Min were among the few Annan officials.
Enter the palace slowly.
They thought they were going to bow three times and kowtow nine times, but they found that the emperor was busy writing and didn't even notice them entering the palace.
Feng Xiao coughed lightly before they bowed.
Zhu Qiyu was very rude. He didn't even look at it. He was focused on the memorial.
Li Xian carefully looked at the attentive emperor.
Is he the Jingtai Emperor who was so beaten that Wala and Tatar were in panic all day long?
Why are you so rude?
The image of the Holy Spirit, civil and military figures in his heart was collapsing.
"Huh? Coming?"
Zhu Qiyu spoke slowly. He no longer had a Nanzhili accent.
When you open your mouth, you will hear the accent of Beizhili.
But what Li Xian said was Nanjing Mandarin: "Li Xian, Prince of Annan of the Li Dynasty of the outer vassal, came to see His Majesty the Emperor of the Celestial Dynasty!"
The etiquette is sufficient.
But after a long time, he responded: "Hmm."
Zhu Qiyu did not regard this meeting as a diplomatic occasion between countries at all, but simply as the emperor's imperial edict to meet the county magistrate.
The truth is always within the range of the gun.
Toughness comes from fighting, not speaking.
No matter how much etiquette is done, what's the use?
These red tapes should be abolished, but they are always done, which is a waste of time.
A trace of displeasure flashed in Ruan Min's eyes, thinking that the emperor of the Celestial Dynasty did not take His Highness into consideration, which was a sign of contempt for Annan Kingdom.
"Your Majesty, the foreign minister has something to say!" Ruan Min said loudly.
interrupted the emperor's train of thought.
Zhu Qiyu frowned. Feng Xiaogang was about to scold him, but he waved his hand, raised his eyes and said, "What's the matter? Tell me!"
"Your Majesty, the foreign minister has three words to say. Please listen carefully to your Majesty."
"First, when I go to the prince to see your majesty with the salutations of a human minister, your majesty should return the courtesy of a king. This is the rite of Zhou."
"Secondly, His Majesty's imperial edict to meet foreign envoys in regular uniform is showing contempt for Annan and cannot demonstrate the majesty of the sovereign emperor."
"Thirdly, since the foreign ministers entered the palace, His Majesty has been absent-minded and extremely perfunctory towards us. This behavior is against etiquette."
"Your Majesty, please look squarely at the foreign ministers and others!"
Ruan Min spoke eloquently.
He thought this was called fighting for reasons, and even though he was abroad, he still wanted to win face for Annan.
Feng Xiao was frightened!
How long has it been since no one dared to scold His Majesty?
And His Majesty has always been rude, even when facing important ministers. He often does this. He has to finish reviewing the memorial before he can say the next thing. The important ministers have to wait.
According to Zhou etiquette, the emperor was extremely rude.
However, Hu Hui and others praised the emperor as a good emperor who had the style of Taizu and was diligent and caring for the people.
Even when the emperor was reviewing the memorials, he would speak out and ask Hu Hui and others to give their opinions, which was suitable for the emperor and his ministers.
We are all used to each other.
The censor didn't think the emperor was wrong. After all, his sword was sharp and he could chop twice at every turn. No censor could bear this.
But what Ruan Min said was really against Zhou etiquette.
Zhu Qiyu put down the memorial and narrowed his eyes: "When did I despise you?"
"Your Majesty ignored Prince Annan. Isn't that contempt?" Ruan Min asked directly.
He thought this was the Warring States period, but the envoy actually played tricks on the king, leaving a good story behind.
"Oh."
"It turns out that in your eyes, I am looking down upon you."
Zhu Qiyu suddenly realized and nodded slightly: "Then you are right, I am despising you!"
The emperor's words are not shocking and he will die!
But he still asked: "What can you do?"
what can you do
This sentence stopped Ruan Min. The emperor didn't play his cards according to the routine.
He should be praised for protecting the Lord like this!
This is ancient etiquette!
Isn’t your Ming Dynasty a country of China?Don't you do it according to ancient rituals?
"Why don't you speak? What can you do to me?"
Zhu Qiyu sneered: "It's just a small foreign country, but it's barking in the Hall of Nourishing Heart."
"I think you are arrogant and think highly of yourself."
"I despise Annan!"
"Let me tell you, I just despise! I just despise! I just look down on you!"
"What can you do!"
"With a wave of my finger, a million troops will cross Fenmaoling and march to Ping'an South. What do you think?"
Domineering!
Li Xian and Ruan Min looked in disbelief. Are they going to attack Annan because of the envoy's words?
Being so domineering, I'm afraid he's not a foolish king, right?
How could he defeat the Oara and Tatars? Are you confused?
"Your Majesty, how can your Majesty be guilty of what he said?" Ruan Min obviously softened.
He is just a messenger.
If it was because of his words that the Ming Dynasty attacked Annan, Emperor Annan would be the first to kill him.
"Is this called being punished for speech? How did you learn Chinese? Did you learn it with your butt?"
Zhu Qiyu sneered: "You are the envoy of Annan, and I am the emperor of the suzerain country!"
"Even King Annan must kneel down in front of me!"
"What are you?"
"Who is Prince Annan?"
Zhu Qiyu looked around.
Li Xian was stunned, don't you know me yet?
I have knelt down and worshiped so many times, and you still don’t recognize me?
"Your Majesty, I am Li Mian." Li Mian kowtowed and bowed respectfully.
"The Annan envoy was so rude and instigated the Ming Dynasty to attack Annan. According to Annan's national law, what crime should he be guilty of?" Zhu Qiyu asked coldly.
Li Xian was immediately confused. Just because of a few words, should he be punished?
"I asked a question, why didn't you answer it?"
Zhu Qiyu frowned: "Prince Annan, why do you act like a mother-in-law?"
Li Xian was stunned. Is this what the emperor should say?
Insulting Prince Annan.
This is about to start a war... Oh, it turns out to be the Ming Emperor, so that's okay.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, Annan will be governed by the Ming Dynasty."
"Lord Ruan is the censor of Annan."
"That's why you won't be punished for your words."
Li Xian helped Ruan Min cover, and the latter looked grateful.

(End of this chapter)
"Tell Lu Gao that if something goes wrong in Jiangxi, I will embed his head on the gate tower of Meiguan!"
On the first day of December, Zhu Qiyu received the report from Guangdong.
"Hou Chen committed suicide?"
"Where are Hou Chen's family?"
Zhu Qiyu asked Feng Xiao.
Feng Xiao trembled all over: "Go back to your Majesty, my family members are all in my hometown."
Even the princes and ministers dared to die, so their families must have been settled.
And Hou Chen is from Zhejiang.
This is Zhu Qiyu's weakest point.
If you go to kill the nine tribes, you probably won't be able to catch the rightful owner.
"At my hometown?"
Zhu Qiyu had a fierce look on his face: "Have your ministers whipped to death and hang them on the city gate of Guangzhou and never take them down!"
"Capture the nine clans and execute them!"
"Another decree is issued that all officials in the world and all their direct family members within three generations must settle in the capital for one year. Those who fail to enter the capital will be dismissed from their official positions and executed personally!"
Feng Xiao put his head on the ground: "Your Majesty, how many levels will it be executed to?"
"It is tentatively decided that from the ninth level and above, family members must move to the capital!"
"Those without family members are not allowed to be officials."
The incident involving Hou Chen served as a warning to him.
Emperor Taizong guarded against theft of military power and ordered his family members to stay in Beijing.
But there are not many restrictions on civil servants.
There are many reasons. Civil servants cannot rebel against the emperor. Moreover, Emperor Yongle needed to make political transactions with civilian officials at that time.
This gave civil servants great power.
But this time is different.
Officials entrenched themselves with the powerful gentry to form the gentry, and colluded with maritime merchants, salt merchants, iron merchants, etc. to form a large network that prevented the power of the central government from entering the local area.
The center and the place began to separate.
And Zhu Qiyu was an emperor who grasped power very much.
Controlling the families of civil servants can also control the civil servants of the world.
And the imperial edict was spread.
Suddenly caused an uproar.
The courtiers expressed strong opposition, and Chen Wen, the minister of official affairs, wrote directly to the emperor, hoping that the emperor would not stop eating because of choking, because the loyal people of the world would be blamed for a mouse excrement.
These remarks were approved by the Hanlin Academy and the Imperial College.
The capital is home to a large number of literati.
There are several Wenzong leaders, such as Tang Yinji, Su Ping, Su Zheng and other Wenzong leaders. They all wrote poems to satirize the emperor's pettiness.
On the contrary, he is a master of Neo-Confucianism and has a strict tone about this.
Because Wu Yubi did not dare to ridicule the emperor, he was ridiculed and his status declined slightly.
In the capital, three people become tigers.
However, Hu Hui, Yu Qian and others remained silent. They were forming a flood control department.
There was an abnormality in the palace.
The emperor was silent, and the mocking voices in the capital became more and more intense.
Strangely, important ministers, Neo-Confucian masters, and clan members all remained silent and refused to comment.
However, Zhu Qiyu issued an imperial edict to meet Wang Fu, a famous general in Liaodong.
Wang Fu's health was so bad that he returned to Beijing to take care of himself at the beginning of the seventh year of Jingtai. He has not been seen for nearly two years. Zhu Qiyu thought this old guy was dead.
Today, he suddenly visited the palace.
"Old general, your grandson Wang Xuan is really brilliant in the martial arts hall."
Zhu Qiyu smiled brightly: "I think your grandson can take over from you!"
Wang Fu has been in charge of Liaodong for more than [-] years and is known as a famous general.
But I didn't do much, and I was considered a general who defended the city.
Just old and reliable.
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty!" Wang Fu's hair turned white, his voice was loud, and he didn't look like he was about to die.
"Old General, why did you enter the palace? Tell me, I will agree to every request."
Zhu Qiyu must seize the military class.
He forcibly moved the families of local officials to Beijing, which was challenging the bottom line of civil servants.
That's why Wang Fu entered the palace.
Come to embolden the emperor.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty!"
Wang Fu kowtowed and said: "I still want to go to the battlefield again and earn a title for my unfilial children and grandchildren!"
However, Zhu Qiyu walked down the steps and helped him up personally: "Old general, you are in poor health. You should be raised in the capital and be used as a sea-calming needle for me."
"Your grandson Wang Xuan is not bad. Sooner or later he will earn the title of earl for your family!"
That's all Wang Xuan's abilities are.
Although Chen You praised him, he did not say that Wang Xuan had the qualifications to be a famous general, but he was just a general. It was difficult to make him a marquis.
Wang Fu's face showed bitterness: "So I want to make use of my last few years to earn a count for the family. If Wang Xuan earns a marquis, it will be considered an honor for me to belong to the Wang family!"
This is asking for a title.
It will definitely be no problem for Wang Fu to go out with the commander-in-chief.
But he was in poor health. If the general died on the way to the expedition, it would be very unlucky to destroy the morale of the army.
But the veteran’s heart cannot be ignored.
"Old general, can your body still support the expedition?" Zhu Qiyu helped him sit down.
Wang Fu knelt down and said with a smile: "Although I am sick, I can eat three bowls of rice at a meal and poop three times a day, so I can still fight for your majesty!"
This is borrowed from Lian Po's words.
Can Lian Po still eat when he is old? There is another sentence at the end: Although General Lian is old, he still has a good appetite, but he sat with me and pooped three times in a short time.
Wang Fu didn't understand the meaning and used the wrong allusion.
This is after Lian Po defected to Wei, when King Zhao Daoxiang sent someone to contact Lian Po, the spy reported back, which meant that Lian Po had diarrhea just after eating and his health was no longer good.
"Hahaha!"
Zhu Qiyu laughed and said: "Old General Zhuangzhao, you have been in Liaodong for many years. There will be a war in Liaodong next year. I can order you to go to Liaodong and lead the army to go on an expedition. How about it?"
Wang Fu kowtowed to the ground and said, "Thank you for your majesty's favor. I will live up to your majesty's high expectations, fight for the country, and ennoble my descendants!"
After chatting for a while, the old man was obviously in low spirits.
Zhu Qiyu sent him away.
Looking at his back, Zhu Qiyu sighed: "Beauty grows old, but the general grows old."
"If he were a few years younger, a count wouldn't be able to stop him."
"Wang Fu is capable, but he was born at the wrong time."
Feng Xiao reported back: "Your Majesty, I heard that Wang Fu took medicine today and became brighter. The imperial doctor said that he has run out of energy."
"I see."
"But at this time, he dares to enter the palace to support me, which shows his loyalty and bravery."
Zhu Qiyu withdrew his gaze: "Loyal bones are buried everywhere in the mountains, why return them wrapped in horse leather?"
"If Wang Fu is not dead next year, he will be carried to the battlefield. How can the old general die on the bed?"
"Having him die on the battlefield would be the greatest honor in his life!"
Zhu Qiyu helped him.
Let him become a monument to the Ming Dynasty.
"Loyalty bones are buried everywhere in the green mountains, why return the body wrapped in horse leather."
Feng Xiao muttered these words: "Your Majesty, is this a poem written by you?"
Zhu Qiyu was stunned. Isn't this the pair on Yue Fei's tomb?
"I read it in miscellaneous books." Zhu Qiyu said perfunctorily. He didn't know who the author was (Gong Zizhen). It was nonsense and he continued to deal with the memorial.
Feng Xiao was still reciting this sentence, and the more he recited it, the more powerful he felt.
Not long after, Feng Xiao whispered: "Your Majesty, Prince Jing was caught by the Yin of Shuntian Prefecture for teasing a good woman."
This is provoking trouble and deliberately lowering your title.
Zhu Qiyu responded and frowned. He read Liu Zhenhai's memorial over and over again. Things in Guangdong were not as simple as they appeared.
"Tell Liu Zhenhai to transport all the seized foreign goods to Beijing and let me see what they are."
"The slaves obey the order."
When it was getting dark, Geng Jiuchou walked into the palace quickly. He was wearing a large cloak outside his official robe and a sweater under his official robe, and his steps were hurried.
After entering the Yangxin Hall and saluting, Geng Jiuchou took out a memorial: "Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from Henan that there is a rebellion among the people in Huaiqing Mansion."
Zhu Qiyu's pupils shrank, and he immediately thought of the money coming to Beijing.
After he opened it, he read quickly.
The place for the rebellion was chosen well, Wuzhi, which could cut off the Si River, and Wuzhi was the only way for money to enter Beijing.
"What do you think?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
"Your Majesty, Wuzhi is located in a flat area and is not a place for kings and hegemons."
"Furthermore, the Ministry of Revenue received a report from the Henan Qing Li Department two years ago. Henan's warehouses are sufficient. It's winter again. If there is no disaster, there should be no civil unrest."
"Weichen speculates that this has something to do with Jiangxi's silver."
So Geng Jiuchou quickly entered the palace.
Discuss with the emperor alone.
"A small rebellion is nothing."
Zhu Qiyu said calmly: "Although Lin Cong is not a famous general or minister, this matter will not trouble Lin Cong, so don't worry about it."
"But what's behind this incident scares me."
"Jiangxi's money can actually encourage the people of Henan to rebel."
"When all the money comes to Beijing, will there be a rebellion in the capital?"
Geng Jiuchou's expression changed slightly: "Your Majesty, why not send troops immediately to clean up the bandits in the capital?"
The bandits in Gyeonggi Province are all afraid of being swept away.
They are the best training targets.
It was used by Yang Xin and Li Zhen for military training; by Ren Li for military training; by Song Jie and Song Wei; and now it is used by Fan Guang and Yu Kang for military training.
Even in martial arts halls and practical classes, students would lead troops to suppress bandits.
"Do not."
"If you do this, you will fall into someone else's trap."
Zhu Qiyu said quietly: "The struggle between the various forces in the capital can be described as turbulent."
"Soldiers from the capital camp and the Jiumen Admiral's Mansion must not leave the capital."
"It's winter again. If we force our soldiers to train, I'm afraid it will cause a backlash."
Geng Jiuchou was also thinking.
Yu Qian, Fan Guang, Yu Kang, Chen You, Cao Yi, Mao Zhong, Gao Li, Wang Fu and other generals are defending the capital, so the center is safe.
Huaiqing Mansion is just a small mess.
But how can we seize the opponent's tail and take advantage of the enemy from a small chaos?
"Your Majesty, why don't we abandon Huaiqing Mansion and let the war burn to the capital."
"First, clean out those who are not loyal to the Ming Dynasty, fill them in the border fortress, and fill the population of Jehol in the northwest."
"Secondly, the pressure on Gyeonggi will be relieved."
Geng Jiuchou used the capital as bait and watched the rebels grow bigger.
Then send troops to destroy them and consume the population.
"No way!"
"A single spark can start a prairie fire."
"It's easy to burn it down, but it's so hard to rebuild it!"
Zhu Qiyu even suspected that he was a spy. How could he come up with such a stupid idea?
The rebellion in Huaiqing Mansion was probably caused by the transit of money. As long as a group of people were killed and a group of people were exiled, it would be suppressed.
It is best if the rebellion is controlled in Huaiqing Mansion or even Wuzhi.
"Can a single spark start a prairie fire?" Geng Jiuchou chewed on these words.
"I read it in miscellaneous books, I don't know who said it." Zhu Qiyu said something shocking again.
This sentence was said by Zhang Juzheng, and who later carried it forward.
"The rebellion must be extinguished quickly. All the prisoners must be packed into the northwest. Gan and Ning are short of people, so just fill them in large numbers."
Zhu Qiyu said: "I am thinking about how to pinch the enemy's nose and make them use it for me?"
No one knows the key enemy, so how can you pinch your nose?
"By the way, has Annan's envoy arrived in Beijing?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
Annan's envoy arrived in Beijing on a ship belonging to the Guangdong Shipping Department and Liu Zhenhai's letter.
"Already arrived in Beijing."
"Xiao Weizhen is gone, who will be the minister of Honglu Temple?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
"Your Majesty, this is Qi Zheng, the former Zuo Shaoqing of Honglu Temple."
Zhu Qiyu nodded, recognizing Qi Zheng's ability: "Where is Taichang Temple? At the beginning of the year, Jiang kept his promise and reported illness and was bedridden. Can he still be in charge now?"
In the Ming Dynasty, foreign guests were received and returned to Taichang Temple.
Diplomacy is under the jurisdiction of Honglu Temple.
"Your Majesty, Jiang Siqing is in good health, but Xi Shaoqing is still here to assist you." Geng Jiuchou reported back.
Zhu Qiyu nodded: "Tell Qi Zheng and Jiang to keep their promise and entertain them well."
"Your Majesty, do you need someone from the Cabinet to coordinate?" Geng Jiuchou asked the emperor's level of attention.
"No need, just an envoy from a small country."
"Qi Zheng and Jiang kept their promise to entertain him, which is beyond the standard."
"There's no need to hold a big court meeting, I'm too lazy to see them."
"From now on, envoys from small countries will be received according to this standard. Unless there are special circumstances and I will issue a special order to see them, there is no need to see them."
Zhu Qiyu sent Geng Jiuchou away.
There were more and more voices from the capital mocking the emperor.
Newspapers were selling like hot cakes, and all kinds of short poems appeared in an endless stream, which satisfied the masses.
Li Xian, who had just come to Beizhili, was blinded by the prosperity of the capital. When he was sent as an envoy to the Ming Dynasty, he knew the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty.
Poverty limited his imagination.
The prosperity he thought was just a little more prosperous than Hanoi.
Even, maybe not as good as Hue, the old capital of Annam.
As a result, when the ship passed Wuhan, everyone was confused. How could there be such a majestic city in the world.
Wuhan was still under construction. It was ordered by the emperor to build a huge city in Hubei and carry out a large expansion on the original city to connect the north and the south and occupy Jingchu.
When crossing Kaifeng, although Kaifeng is ancient, the prosperity of the old capital is still not comparable to Hanoi and Hue.
I thought the shock along the way was enough.
But when entering the capital.
The first reaction is big!Ridiculously big!
The new city is still under construction outside the city. When the new city is completed, the capital will more than quadruple in size and become the huge capital of the Ming Dynasty.
There are so many cars and people, so don’t compare it to Hanoi. The most popular place in Hanoi is Wanping County in Shuntian Prefecture.
Li Xian is really squandering flowers and gradually becomes charming.
The capital is a city that never sleeps.
The emperor ordered that there would be no closing hours for the market, and the night market would be more prosperous than during the day.
Although it is already the twelfth lunar month of winter, the cold still cannot stop the people of the capital from being generous. They spend the day in the club and go to the night market to drink and talk.
Li Xian’s biggest feeling: There are so many people!Rich people!Proud people!
There seemed to be more people in the capital of the Ming Dynasty than in the entire Annan!
Moreover, all of them were dressed in brocade robes, with arrogance on their brows, looking at him as if they were looking at a country bumpkin.
He also found a strange piece of clothing, made of wool, with short sleeves and sleeves. It looked like the clothes of barbarians, worn underneath to keep warm.
But they sell very well in the capital and are hard to find.
Although the dignitaries don't like it very much.
But it is the favorite of middle-class people.
Some traveling men and women are proud to wear sweaters. It is said that in the countryside, a medium-sized sweater can be used as a betrothal gift to get a daughter-in-law.
Li Xian also bought one to wear, but found that it was too tight.
But the price is too cheap.
Some people say that this is His Majesty's grace, allowing the people to have clothes to wear. It can be seen that the people admire the current emperor very much.
Li Xian spent a few days in the capital.
I also participated in several literary conferences.
He also speaks Chinese, has read poetry and books since childhood, and can also write and write.
But the poem written by Wenhui seems to be slandering the current saint!
He was so frightened that he urinated and left in a hurry, never daring to attend the poetry gathering again.
What surprised him was that the emperor was so broad-minded?
Folk poems mocked him, did he really pretend that it never happened?
During the day, I wandered around the capital, and at night I stayed at the Seiyi Pavilion.
Siyi Pavilion is under the management of Taichang Temple.
When the Siyi Pavilion was first established, it was a translation department. Over time, it became a hotel for foreign guests to stay. Taichang Temple Admiral supervised the affairs.
What Li Xian was most dissatisfied with was the Siyi Pavilion. The living environment was too poor, drafts leaked from everywhere, and the food served every day was unpalatable.
The Siyi Pavilion is under the control of Xi Jiayan, the young minister of Taichang Temple.
But this Xi Jiayan was proficient in palindrome. He spent every day in the Huihui library, studying palindrome.
After being scolded by the emperor last time, he took his heart back and studied his knowledge. Instead, he was often praised by the emperor.
As for Li Xian's stay, he didn't care at all.
Li Xian sent people to find the minister of Taichang Temple, thinking that Ming Dynasty did not receive him with the courtesy of a prince, which was contempt for Annan.
Annan's envoys argued hard and gave Jiang Shouyue a headache.
Jiang Shouyue is studying the text.
Like Xi Jiayan, he knew that he was not very capable, and if he wanted to gain a foothold in the court, he must have unique skills.
It happened that he was well-read and had a talent for languages, so he began to study foreign languages and gained a lot, especially in the study of Zhenwen, which was unparalleled.
"Mr. Ruan, this is the Ming Dynasty's etiquette for entertaining foreign envoys, that's right."
Jiang Shouyue wiped his face.
Ruan Min, Annan's envoy, had a leaky mouth and sprayed saliva all over his face.
"How can this be the etiquette for entertaining a prince?"
Ruan Min was also a Ming Dynasty official and thought that Jiang Shou had deceived him: "Jiang Siqing, this is not the first time we have dealt with each other. I will appeal to His Majesty the Emperor at the court meeting!"
"Stop!"
Jiang Shouyue was upset by the quarrel, and his face darkened: "This is the etiquette revised by His Majesty years ago, and it is set as the norm. This is His Majesty's intention."
He was too embarrassed to say it was a new contract, so he said it had been a year.
The envoys of Wala and Tatar were also treated in this way.
"How is it possible? The Holy Emperor of the Ming Dynasty has a broad mind and is a saint descended from heaven. How can he descend upon me the courtesy of the court?" Of course Ruan Min didn't believe it.
"This is not the etiquette for surrendering to Annan. This is the etiquette for all foreign princes."
Jiang Shouyue issued an eviction order: "You go and argue with Honglu Temple about this matter. I have important matters, so I won't send you far away."
"What is your attitude!"
Ruan Min was anxious. This was clearly a push-over. He must have suffered retaliation from Taichang Temple because he did not give a gift.
Seeing that he still refused to leave, Jiang Shouyue sneered: "Among the envoys who came to the Ming Dynasty, there were not many envoys from Oara and Tatar. They were all disemboweled. You can still sit in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, so be content."
Ruan Min didn't understand.
what does it mean?
He ran to Honglu Temple, found Qi Zheng, and asked Qi Zheng to receive them with the courtesy of a prince.
"Are you mentally ill?"
Qi Zheng looked unkind: "Because of this matter, are you interrupting my work? Do you know how big a deal it is to delay me!"
Ruan Min was stunned.
Everyone in this Ming Dynasty has been fed up with gunpowder, so why are they so ugly?
Taichang Temple is busy, and Honglu Temple is also busy.
Why are the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty so busy?
"Master Siqing."
"I just hope to be received with formal courtesy."
"Instead of treating me, His Highness the Prince of Annan Kingdom, like pigs and dogs!"
"This is disrespectful to His Royal Highness."
Ruan Min argued hard.
Qi Zheng's face darkened and he put down the file: "When I first met you, I told you that I would receive you according to the etiquette of a prince."
"It is the highest courtesy to place you in the Sei Pavilion."
"and also!"
"Today is not the day for Annan's envoys to meet with Ming officials."
"You have violated the rules. According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, I can take you down on the spot."
"do you know?"
Qi Zheng was very angry.
He is sorting out the files from North Korea. After the files are sorted out, they will be sent to the palace.Your Majesty is waiting to see.
Honglu Temple is also trying to increase revenue and reduce expenditure, and find ways to make money to satisfy the emperor.
So Honglu Temple is very busy.
"Get out!"
Qi Zheng didn't bother to scold him.
Sit down again, pick up the brush, and reclassify the files according to the latest information.
This is top-secret information, just coming from North Korea.
In some cases, if it is different from what is recorded in the dossier, the contents of the dossier must be corrected.
Because it is top secret, he can only do it himself.
He was about to open the file, but found that Ruan Min hadn't left yet.
"Master Temple Minister, let's not talk about etiquette for the moment."
“Can you please hire someone to repair the doors and windows?”
"The capital is cold and the doors and windows are leaking."
"His Royal Highness has caught a cold."
"So please, Sir, please be accommodating."
Ruan Min could only lower his attitude.
The Ming Dynasty defeated the Oara and Tatars, and its force was strong, and its people were naturally tough.
Ruan Min endured it.
The problem is that they have to stay in the Siyi Pavilion, and the doors and windows belong to the Siyi Pavilion, so they are not allowed to repair them.
We can only ask Qi Zheng to be accommodating.
"This matter is not under the jurisdiction of Honglu Temple. You can go find Taichang Temple."
Qi Zheng drove people away impatiently.
Then keep working.
At Taichang Temple, Jiang Shouyue saw Ruan Min coming again, and said impatiently: "Didn't I ask you to go to Honglu Temple?"
"Sir, I would like to ask you to repair the doors and windows. This is the cost of repairing the doors and windows."
Ruan Min learned well.
Give me a gold ring.
Jiang Shouyue jumped up in fright: "What are you going to do? Are you going to bribe me?"
"This is the cost of repairing the doors and windows." Ruan Min laughed along.
"Hurry up."
Jiang Shouyue looked at the door and saw someone walking: "You can bear witness to me. I will confiscate nothing."
Ruan Min was confused. Ming officials were good at taking cards.
Why are you so afraid of gold?
Is it too little?
Ruan Min glanced at the two officials passing by outside. Do they still have to give them away?
Too greedy!
"Foreign Ambassador Ruan, this is the Ming Dynasty!"
"It's not you Annan!"
"I'll put an end to all your tricks!"
Jiang Shouyue angrily rebuked: "Just tell me when you are repairing the door, why insult me with these pickled things!"
Ruan Min was stunned. When did you become so innocent?
Last time I gave you a huge piece of jade, and you were so happy that you couldn't help but forget it?
"The foreign minister knows the crime." Ruan Min didn't understand where Jiang Shouyue sang.
"Just repairing doors and windows?"
"I know, please go back."
Jiang Shooyue sat down again and continued to read the text: "I am busy with government affairs. If there is nothing important, please do not disturb me."
Why are Ming officials so busy?
"May I ask Mr. Jiang, when will the foreign ministers and others be able to meet you?"
Ruan Min was ordered by Emperor Annan to pay tribute to two elephants.
In fact, I just want to repair the relationship with Daming again.
The Ming Dynasty defeated Oara and the Tatars, and the suzerain country became stronger again. Annan naturally had to be a good licker.
In fact, Annan, a licking dog, became disobedient after taking back Jiaozhi from the Ming Dynasty. He began to attack the Ming Dynasty's dependent countries everywhere, and did not take the Ming Dynasty seriously.
Now this runaway dog wants to return to the arms of the Ming Dynasty.
"Your Majesty is busy with government affairs and has no time to see you. If you need anything, just go and communicate with Honglu Temple."
Jiang Shouyue wrote something while reading.
Ruan Min can't understand it, it's not Chinese characters anyway.
"We are not in a hurry to return. We can wait until His Majesty has some free time to issue an edict to the foreign ministers." Ruan Min lowered his posture.
Jiang Shouyue raised his head and frowned: "Can't you understand people?"
"How can a mere envoy from Annan be qualified to meet His Majesty?"
"Honglu Temple is enough for communication."
"If you have nothing to do, please leave."
"Don't disturb my office!"
Ruan Min's face was full of confusion: "Master Jiang, we send auspicious auspiciousness to your majesty. We would like to present it to you in person and ask for your tolerance and tolerance."
Snapped!
Jiang Shouyue put down his brush: "You can't understand people, can you?"
"What auspiciousness, just a few broken elephants, trying to deceive His Majesty?"
"I'm tired of living!"
"Here comes someone, beat him out with a stick!"
"Don't let him in from now on!"
Jiang Shouyue was angry: "Everyone get out!"
Do you think this official is as idle as you Annan officials?
If Zhan Wen cannot study thoroughly, I will not be able to save my head!
After Ruan Min was kicked out.
Everyone was confused. Is this the Ming Dynasty?
Why is everyone so busy?
Watching the officials in Taichang Temple coming and going, they were all running quickly. After saying hello to each other, they left quickly, everyone was busy.
Ruan Min thought back to Taichang Temple in Annan. It was a place for leisure people.
Ruan Min returned to his residence in a daze.
Li Xian asked, when did the Ming Emperor order to see them?
"I'm afraid the Ming Emperor will never be seen again." Ruan Min recounted what he saw on the road and what Jiang Shouyue and Qi Zheng said.
Li Xian and others were surprised.
Annan obeyed the Ming system.
It can be seen from Li Xian's name that Li Jun, the contemporary emperor of Annan.
They are all named according to the five elements.
Plagiarized name of the Ming Emperor.
"No wonder Ming Dynasty has become so powerful."
"It turns out that people do their best, the government operates quickly, and the world is like an arm."
"The two capitals and thirteen provinces have become so terrifyingly powerful as they are twisted into one rope!"
"Only then can we have terrifyingly powerful combat power and be able to repel powerful enemies."
Li Xian's face was full of envy: "I really want to see His Majesty the Emperor!"
Ruan Min smiled bitterly: "Old minister, let's think of another way."
The next day, Ruan Min went to Honglu Temple to negotiate between the two countries.
"Want to meet His Majesty?"
Qi Zheng showed a strange smile and said: "Yes, as long as Annan returns Jiaozhi to the Ming Dynasty, I will go to the palace to ask for an imperial edict from your majesty to see you."
Ruan Min smiled bitterly and said: "Sir, you know that Jiaozhi fell into the arms of Annan himself. Annan never dared to compete with the Celestial Empire."
Yes, you do have a lot of arguments.
We also want to break away from the Ming Dynasty and become the sovereign state on the sea!
Are the wings hard?
Why is it soft now?
"This is the condition, there is no need to negotiate."
Qi Zheng said: "By the way, your majesty has no interest in the elephant that you offered and returned the same way. Ming Dynasty will not provide it with any food."
what?
Elephants are our national treasures.
"The elephant is a symbol of good luck, good health and longevity."
"These two heads are divine images that can distinguish each person."
"I have been searching hard for several years before finding a pair."
"This is to present the donation to the Emperor of Heaven to show your sincerity."
Ruan Min is just bragging.
Elephants are designed to recognize people, and their memories are particularly good.
But Qi Zheng felt that the elephant was too edible.
The rare beasts in the Royal Forest Garden were all sold by the emperor. Those that could not be sold were opened in a zoo for the people to pay to see.
However, the ticket price was too expensive. Ticket sales were okay when the park opened, but then gradually cooled down.
The money I make is not enough to raise animals.
The emperor decreed that these wild beasts should be transported to the south of the Yangtze River to be sold. If they couldn't be sold, they would be released.
Those breeding officials were all demoted.
Now there is no one in the royal family who knows how to raise an elephant.
"Stop!"
Qi Zheng said calmly: "The Heavenly Kingdom does not want this thing, so there is no need to discuss it further."
"This is dedicated to His Majesty. Even if His Majesty dislikes it, there should be an imperial edict or an oral instruction to pass it down!"
Ruan Min just wanted to take the opportunity to ask for an audience with the emperor.
Qi Zheng did not dare to disturb the emperor.
"I can make the decision on this matter!"
"Can Mr. Qi surpass His Majesty and become His Majesty's master?" Ruan Min is so courageous.
Qi Zheng was so frightened that he kowtowed in the direction of the Forbidden City until his forehead was swollen. Then he looked back and sneered: "Are you sure you want to see His Majesty?"
"I would like to offer my auspicious blessings, of course, to meet His Majesty."
"Don't blame me for not reminding you. Some things can still be undone before they reach that point." Qi Zheng didn't dare to tell the truth.
Anyway, the envoys who saw the emperor were either dead or staying in the palace as eunuchs.
There is no going back.
Ruan Min believes that the emperor of the Celestial Dynasty is the best to deceive. If he says something nice, he will show favor to others for the sake of face.
A hair from the emperor's leg was enough to live for Annan for ten years.
Therefore, Li Xian and Ruan Min insisted on meeting the emperor.
"That's all, I'll pass it on for you." Qi Zheng realized that he was very incompetent.
Zhu Qiyu was reading the memorial presented by Fang Ying. Regarding Guangxi's arrangements, he sighed: "It's a pity, it's not all work!"
He hasn't decided yet how to deal with Lu Gao.
The purpose of the Tiqi is already useless. Let's break it up and enter the factory guard. There is no need to exist alone.
"Your Majesty, it has been reported from Honglu Temple that Annan's envoy must meet you." Feng Xiao took advantage of the emperor's tea break to speak.
"Qi Zheng can't handle this?"
Zhu Qiyu put down the tea cup: "Incompetent person!"
"I think he is good at intelligence but not diplomacy. He should join the Military Discipline Department. His rank will remain unchanged."
"Xuan come in, I'll meet them."
"Your Majesty, are you issuing an imperial edict here?" Feng Xiao believed that such an edict would not demonstrate the power of the Ming Dynasty.
"Strongness does not lie in how you say it, but in your true strength."
"Stop doing those vain things."
"If they dare not obey, I will use the army to beat them until they obey!"
Zhu Qiyu hates the kind of blowing that relies entirely on mouth and can't do anything else except blowing.
The strength of a great country is always achieved through fighting.
He stood up and moved.
Then he picked up the ink pen and wrote on Fang Ying's memorial: "The affairs of Guangdong and Guangxi are all in your hands. There is no need to be taboo about the center. Don't be afraid if the Guangdong and Guangxi are messed up."
“True peace comes after chaos.”
"However, the people are the main focus, and the smaller the war, the better. Try not to harm the fish in the pond. The affected people should try to compensate as much as possible."
"List the urgently needed money, goods and materials, and I will allocate them as soon as possible to restore the vitality of Guangdong and Guangxi."
"Guangxi wolf soldiers will be placed in Guangdong. You can decide the amount."
"After Guangdong is razed, Qiongzhou Prefecture will also be razed, but the natives cannot be resettled. Some Han people will be moved there to educate the local people."
"Xue Yuan, the new governor of Guangdong, has great talents. You should use them as appropriate."
"To govern Guangdong, we must first control the sea. If the sea is level, Guangdong will be level."
"To govern the sea, you need ships."
"Zhu Yong must be firmly stationed in Guanghaiwei. No one is allowed to move. Shipbuilding is the most important thing."
"The governance of Guangdong also depends on the sea. When the sea opens, Guangdong will be prosperous. After you take charge of Guangdong, you can order the people to go fishing in the sea as appropriate. There is no need to be too restrictive."
"The prosperity of Guangdong lies first in trade, followed by seafood, salt, fruits and vegetables, etc. Inland, seafood, fruits and vegetables are scarce, but they must find ways to transport them."
Zhu Qiyu wrote a long and lengthy text of more than ten thousand words, but his thoughts are still unfinished.
He really didn't take the chaos in Huizhou Prefecture seriously.
Because Ou Xin is here, he can't make trouble. With this chaos, Ou Xin's reward can be returned.
Fang Ying has turned back and is about to pacify Guangdong.
The top priority is how to govern Guangdong and even Guangxi.
Seeing the emperor writing rapidly, Feng Xiao waited until the emperor finished writing, read it again in detail, corrected the typos, and then closed the memorial.
He then added: "Your Majesty, Prince Annan is already waiting in the side hall."
"Well, come in Xuan."
Zhu Qiyu felt that there was something to add, so he took up his pen and added another sentence: "If you go ahead and do it in Guangdong, I will support you!"
Li Xian and Ruan Min were among the few Annan officials.
Enter the palace slowly.
They thought they were going to bow three times and kowtow nine times, but they found that the emperor was busy writing and didn't even notice them entering the palace.
Feng Xiao coughed lightly before they bowed.
Zhu Qiyu was very rude. He didn't even look at it. He was focused on the memorial.
Li Xian carefully looked at the attentive emperor.
Is he the Jingtai Emperor who was so beaten that Wala and Tatar were in panic all day long?
Why are you so rude?
The image of the Holy Spirit, civil and military figures in his heart was collapsing.
"Huh? Coming?"
Zhu Qiyu spoke slowly. He no longer had a Nanzhili accent.
When you open your mouth, you will hear the accent of Beizhili.
But what Li Xian said was Nanjing Mandarin: "Li Xian, Prince of Annan of the Li Dynasty of the outer vassal, came to see His Majesty the Emperor of the Celestial Dynasty!"
The etiquette is sufficient.
But after a long time, he responded: "Hmm."
Zhu Qiyu did not regard this meeting as a diplomatic occasion between countries at all, but simply as the emperor's imperial edict to meet the county magistrate.
The truth is always within the range of the gun.
Toughness comes from fighting, not speaking.
No matter how much etiquette is done, what's the use?
These red tapes should be abolished, but they are always done, which is a waste of time.
A trace of displeasure flashed in Ruan Min's eyes, thinking that the emperor of the Celestial Dynasty did not take His Highness into consideration, which was a sign of contempt for Annan Kingdom.
"Your Majesty, the foreign minister has something to say!" Ruan Min said loudly.
interrupted the emperor's train of thought.
Zhu Qiyu frowned. Feng Xiaogang was about to scold him, but he waved his hand, raised his eyes and said, "What's the matter? Tell me!"
"Your Majesty, the foreign minister has three words to say. Please listen carefully to your Majesty."
"First, when I go to the prince to see your majesty with the salutations of a human minister, your majesty should return the courtesy of a king. This is the rite of Zhou."
"Secondly, His Majesty's imperial edict to meet foreign envoys in regular uniform is showing contempt for Annan and cannot demonstrate the majesty of the sovereign emperor."
"Thirdly, since the foreign ministers entered the palace, His Majesty has been absent-minded and extremely perfunctory towards us. This behavior is against etiquette."
"Your Majesty, please look squarely at the foreign ministers and others!"
Ruan Min spoke eloquently.
He thought this was called fighting for reasons, and even though he was abroad, he still wanted to win face for Annan.
Feng Xiao was frightened!
How long has it been since no one dared to scold His Majesty?
And His Majesty has always been rude, even when facing important ministers. He often does this. He has to finish reviewing the memorial before he can say the next thing. The important ministers have to wait.
According to Zhou etiquette, the emperor was extremely rude.
However, Hu Hui and others praised the emperor as a good emperor who had the style of Taizu and was diligent and caring for the people.
Even when the emperor was reviewing the memorials, he would speak out and ask Hu Hui and others to give their opinions, which was suitable for the emperor and his ministers.
We are all used to each other.
The censor didn't think the emperor was wrong. After all, his sword was sharp and he could chop twice at every turn. No censor could bear this.
But what Ruan Min said was really against Zhou etiquette.
Zhu Qiyu put down the memorial and narrowed his eyes: "When did I despise you?"
"Your Majesty ignored Prince Annan. Isn't that contempt?" Ruan Min asked directly.
He thought this was the Warring States period, but the envoy actually played tricks on the king, leaving a good story behind.
"Oh."
"It turns out that in your eyes, I am looking down upon you."
Zhu Qiyu suddenly realized and nodded slightly: "Then you are right, I am despising you!"
The emperor's words are not shocking and he will die!
But he still asked: "What can you do?"
what can you do
This sentence stopped Ruan Min. The emperor didn't play his cards according to the routine.
He should be praised for protecting the Lord like this!
This is ancient etiquette!
Isn’t your Ming Dynasty a country of China?Don't you do it according to ancient rituals?
"Why don't you speak? What can you do to me?"
Zhu Qiyu sneered: "It's just a small foreign country, but it's barking in the Hall of Nourishing Heart."
"I think you are arrogant and think highly of yourself."
"I despise Annan!"
"Let me tell you, I just despise! I just despise! I just look down on you!"
"What can you do!"
"With a wave of my finger, a million troops will cross Fenmaoling and march to Ping'an South. What do you think?"
Domineering!
Li Xian and Ruan Min looked in disbelief. Are they going to attack Annan because of the envoy's words?
Being so domineering, I'm afraid he's not a foolish king, right?
How could he defeat the Oara and Tatars? Are you confused?
"Your Majesty, how can your Majesty be guilty of what he said?" Ruan Min obviously softened.
He is just a messenger.
If it was because of his words that the Ming Dynasty attacked Annan, Emperor Annan would be the first to kill him.
"Is this called being punished for speech? How did you learn Chinese? Did you learn it with your butt?"
Zhu Qiyu sneered: "You are the envoy of Annan, and I am the emperor of the suzerain country!"
"Even King Annan must kneel down in front of me!"
"What are you?"
"Who is Prince Annan?"
Zhu Qiyu looked around.
Li Xian was stunned, don't you know me yet?
I have knelt down and worshiped so many times, and you still don’t recognize me?
"Your Majesty, I am Li Mian." Li Mian kowtowed and bowed respectfully.
"The Annan envoy was so rude and instigated the Ming Dynasty to attack Annan. According to Annan's national law, what crime should he be guilty of?" Zhu Qiyu asked coldly.
Li Xian was immediately confused. Just because of a few words, should he be punished?
"I asked a question, why didn't you answer it?"
Zhu Qiyu frowned: "Prince Annan, why do you act like a mother-in-law?"
Li Xian was stunned. Is this what the emperor should say?
Insulting Prince Annan.
This is about to start a war... Oh, it turns out to be the Ming Emperor, so that's okay.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, Annan will be governed by the Ming Dynasty."
"Lord Ruan is the censor of Annan."
"That's why you won't be punished for your words."
Li Xian helped Ruan Min cover, and the latter looked grateful.
