Daming Zhu Di: Father, why aren't you dead? !

The breeze is gentle and warm.

In the elegant room at the top of Zuixian Pavilion, there was a tea table by the window. The moment Ji Boying raised his hand to pick up the cup on the table, a bright purple-gold light flashed in front of his eyes.

I have long been extremely familiar with this flickering purple-gold light.

'very good. ’

The immortal master was very satisfied with this result.

"Congratulations: Zhengde time and space has successfully reached the 500th year of Guozuo, and the host authority of this time and space has been officially opened."

Now add the Zhengde time and space that has completed its mission, and then add the special existence of Hongwu Ming.

Do the math.

Among the sixteen time-spaces of the Ming Dynasty, five time-spaces in the early Ming Dynasty (Hongwu, Jianwen, Yongle, Hongxi, and Xuande) have all been completed. Chenghua, Jiajing, and Zhengde in the middle Ming Dynasty have also completed their tasks. Only Zhengtong, Jingtai-Tianshun and Hongzhi are left.

Among these three time-space Ming dynasties, the order of difficulty in completing tasks is probably Jingtai - Tianshun > Zhengtong ≥ Hongzhi.

In fact, from the perspective of the respective years of Guo Zuo, we can also get such a ranking answer. The Guo Zuo of Jingtai and Tianshun has reached 450 years, the Guo Zuo of the orthodox Ming Dynasty is 355 years, and the Hongzhi Ming Dynasty is 350 years.

Furthermore, the remaining five time spaces in the late Ming Dynasty are also the five most difficult to deal with.

「隆庆：420」「万历：325」「泰昌：360」「天启：400」「崇祯：330」。

These last five are the ones that give Ji Boying the most headaches.

After all, the orthodox Ming Dynasty and the Hongzhi Ming Dynasty in the mid-Ming Dynasty, with the young Zhu Jianshen and the young Zhu Houzhao studying abroad respectively, there will definitely be a new scene after these two return to the court after completing their studies.

Because whether it is Zhu Jianshen, the young man who orthodoxed the Ming Dynasty, or Zhu Houzhao, the young man who promoted the Ming Dynasty, both have shown the image of a heroic king. After he takes full power, there will be big changes in the promotion of Guo Zuo.

But in the five time-spaces of the late Ming Dynasty, this is no longer a problem that can be changed simply by studying abroad, but is largely limited by the limitations of the times.

"Lao Zhu, it's getting late. You should go back and rest today."

Ji Boying glanced out the window and saw the setting sun.

After all, Lao Zhu was already over fifty. He had stayed up all day. If he stayed up any longer, he might be in poor health.

"It's okay. We have nothing to do when we go back to the palace anyway. Why don't we just chat with my brother here to kill some time."

Lao Zhu said with a smile.

Although in his heart he really wanted to implement the affairs of the political hall as soon as possible, but for some reason, he always felt a sense of parting from his brother today.

It seems that in the near future, my brother will leave.

When he thought of this, Lao Zhu felt uncomfortable all over, and he didn't want to leave the Zuixian Tower.

Over the years, he has already become accustomed to the presence of his elder brother, the Immortal Master.

"Ah."

Ji Boying nodded slightly.

Since Lao Zhu doesn't want to go back, he won't force him.

then.

As a model worker, Ji Boying continued to work.

A thought moved slightly.

I saw two figures suddenly appearing beside the tea table.

These two people are no strangers.

These two people were none other than Zhu Qiyu, the Emperor of Jingtai in the Jingtai-Tianshun time and space, and Zhu Qizhen, the black man who served as the replacement for the Ming Dynasty in Chongzhen.

"Immortal Master, Great Ancestor."

When the two brothers appeared in the private room, they showed no signs of surprise. After all, they had been here many times and were already familiar with the roads. They all bowed respectfully.

"sit down."

Ji Boying glanced at the two of them and spoke calmly. At the same time, two cups of Dahongpao appeared at the table in front of them.

After Emperor Jingtai and Emperor Tianshun secretly looked at each other, they sat down side by side. Neither of them spoke, both waiting for instructions from the immortal master.

Although there seemed to be no surprise on their faces, in fact, the two of them still had some thoughts in their minds. After all, they were suddenly summoned to Zuixian Tower alone, and they were somewhat unsettled.

"You two, tell me brother how your situation is this time."

Lao Zhu was the first to speak, and he had already mastered the rules.

Compared with any other dynasty in the Ming Dynasty, this Jingtai-Tianshun dynasty can be said to be an extremely special dynasty.

Because in a sense, the current Jingtai-Tianshun dynasty is in an era where two dragons are in the same dynasty, especially after the enlightenment of the black man Zhu Qizhen and the release of the two brothers.

In the current Jingtai-Tianshun dynasty, as the emperor, Jingtai Emperor Zhu Qiyu was the de facto emperor and mainly managed political affairs.

As the Supreme Emperor, Heihua Zhu Qizhen was responsible for commanding troops abroad and wiping out all the barbarians for the development of the Ming Dynasty. Heihua Zhu Qizhen was also fully responsible for all matters related to the great voyage of the "Jingtai-Tianshun" dynasty.

The two brothers can be said to work side by side, working together in a tacit understanding, and working together to make the Ming Dynasty prosperous.

Moreover, the two of them spared no effort in cultivating the country's crown prince. At this time, Zhu Jianshen, the prince of the East Palace, spent half of his time with his uncle Zhu Qiyu to learn how to govern the country, and the other half of his time with his father. The black man Zhu Qizhen knows the tactics of the battlefield by his side. It can be said that he is grasping both civil and military forces, and nothing can be left behind.

"Yes."

Emperor Jingtai nodded.

In terms of political affairs in the DPRK, such as various institutional reforms, these are all handled by Emperor Jingtai.

Then, Jingtai Zhu Qiyu spoke very quickly, talking about the changes in these years. After finishing his words, it only took less than a quarter of an hour.

Listening to Emperor Jingtai's performance report, Ji Boying's expression didn't seem to change, but he was beating a drum in his heart.

Because from what I just heard, from the perspective of governance, it can be said that what Zhu Qiyu of Jingtai did is no worse than other Ming Dynasties in time and space. After all, Zhu Qiyu’s talent is more than enough to maintain success.

But why is it that Guozuo of the "Jingtai-Tianshun" dynasty is not as good as Jiajing Zhengde, who was also in the middle Ming Dynasty, and it can be said that there is a big gap.

"Brother, it's your turn."

After Emperor Jingtai finished speaking his part, he glanced at the blackened Zhu Qizhen beside him and signaled that it was the turn of the blackened Zhu Qizhen next.

"Ah."

The blackened Zhu Qizhen took a breath, and then continued to speak. After his successful comeback, he told the immortal master and Taizu one by one about the various military operations carried out in the "Jingtai-Tianshun" period. .

The mention of military affairs was Lao Zhu's strongest point, so he listened more seriously, but his brows became more and more wrinkled the more he listened.

Ji Boying also listened. Even though he didn't know much about military affairs, he felt more and more that something was not right. If we take a more vivid example, in terms of military strikes, the "Jingtai-Tianshun" has gradually turned into a gentle and drizzle in terms of military strikes. It has continued to invest in the surrounding barbarians and even overseas fleets. ground reduction.

To give another simple example, take the land of Japanese islands in the "Jingtai-Tianshun" dynasty. Although the entire territory of Japanese islands has been completely conquered by the Ming Dynasty, due to the continuous relaxation of post-war pressure, troubles continue to occur today. , these trouble-making indigenous Baga specifically targeted Ming Dynasty's silver mining, smelting factories and other underground gangs, which caused the development and smelting of silver to be extremely hindered, and the direct economic damage suffered was as high as 70 to 80 million taels of silver.

Another example.

"Jingtai-Tianshun" once launched a large-scale maritime expansion plan overseas. When the fleet arrived in Java, it was hindered by an extremely powerful religious state from the Java region.

Faced with this situation, the Ming fleet should use force to open the door.

However, in response to the offensive of the Javanese religious state, the Ming fleet attacked with lightning speed at first. However, after fighting for less than half a year, the offensive suddenly slowed down again. This small gap gave these small countries a chance to survive.

This led to the fact that in the end, the Javanese countries were still forcibly included in the Great White Bank system.

However, because the process of opening the country was not as strong as it was at the beginning, the local resistance to the Silver Plan continued to emerge, which greatly affected the Ming Dynasty's extraction of benefits from this area. In recent years, directly or indirectly The amount of silver lost was at least fifty million taels.

And these losses will be directly reflected in the growth rate of national power.

"Why has the intensity of military strikes been reduced so drastically in recent years?"

"We must do our best to eliminate evil. Don't you two understand this simple truth? What do you do for food on weekdays!"

Lao Zhu frowned and glanced at the two of them with a questioning tone.

"In the land of Japanese islands, the group of bandits should be suppressed with strong military power for ten years after the Japanese islands are pacified. This is the minimum period. How come the military forces stationed at the Japanese silver mines are slacking off?!"

"There is also this overseas silver expansion plan. Java is just a small country. After several years, it still has the power to resist."

"Don't you two know that the Japanese silver and the Ming Dynasty's great navigation silver expansion plan are the key to the growth of the Ming Dynasty's national power? My brother has already made this very clear in the first class. Neither of you have ears in class?!"

Facing the question from his great ancestor, Jingtai Emperor Zhu Qiyu looked panicked and said quickly.

"Grandfather, please don't blame me for this. If you want to blame me, blame me. It's because I'm not familiar with military affairs and there was a problem with the deployment, which led to the current chaos."

Emperor Jingtai stood up, saluted Old Zhu Zuo, and continued.

"In recent years, my eldest brother has been absent from the dynasty for most of the time, so many military and political matters have been handled by me alone."

The voice just fell.

The blackened Zhu Qizhen also stood up and said with a solemn expression.

"Immortal Master, Taizu, this matter has nothing to do with Qi Yu. I have always been responsible for the military affairs of this dynasty. Now that such chaos is spreading and affecting the great cause of the country, it is my dereliction of duty. I ask Immortal Master and Taizu to surrender." Punishment.”

With that said, the blackened Zhu Qizhen knelt down with a plop.

Jingtai Emperor Zhu Qiyu on the side also fell to his knees when he saw this.

"Master Immortal, Grandpa Taizu, I am the emperor of this dynasty and the first responsible person. If you want to punish me, punish me. It has nothing to do with my eldest brother."

Ji Boying watched the two kneeling brothers confess each other's crimes. This brotherly love was worth seeing. The two people could go from being hostile at the beginning to being in such harmony now.

To be honest, it was a bit beyond Ji Boying's initial expectations.

And this is the problem of "Jingtai-Tianshun".

With the two kneeling down, it was now roughly confirmed.

Regardless of whether it is the Japanese islands or the Southeast Asian countries, due to the blackening of Zhu Qi Town's replacement Chongzhen during the Ming Dynasty, the absence of military leadership halfway led to the replacement of those in charge of military operations, which ultimately caused many legacy problems in the Japanese islands and Java. , causing great losses and troubles, thus affecting the improvement of Guo Zuo.

Overseas rebellions continue to be cut off and chaos reigns.

In particular, the perennial rebellion by the indigenous forces is a matter that consumes the most energy and national power.

If Heihua Zhu Qizhen had done this from beginning to end, there would be no such problems. With Heihua Zhu Qizhen's murderous nature on the battlefield, how could the natives dare to rebel? I'm afraid they will be exterminated directly!

at this point.

The "Jingtai-Tianshun" dynasty Mobei Wala had a deep sense of experience. The blackened Zhu Qizhen did not accept surrender at all, and did not take prisoners. If caught, they would be slaughtered directly.

This group of horsemen were beaten by the black man Zhu Qizhen and all went to Central Asia to make a living. When they saw the Ming army flag, they hid themselves and ran away.

But now that a problem has arisen, what we have to do is to solve the problem, not the person who caused the problem.

"Get up."

Ji Boying said.

And it’s really about the origin of this matter.

If we really want to trace it back to the root cause, it is actually the problem caused by him as an immortal master, because he was the one who made the decision to let Zhu Qizhen, the black man, replace Chongzhen Daming.

"Brother has already spoken, why are you two kneeling down?!"

"Yes."

Hearing the words of the Immortal Master and Grand Ancestor, Jingtai Emperor Zhu Qiyu and Heihua Zhu Qizhen both stood up one after another.

"I will solve the problems you have left over from this day for you."

The Immortal Master glanced at the two people who were standing and said something lightly.

Jingtai Emperor Zhu Qiyu suddenly looked overjoyed. He had been worried about this issue for a long time and had never made up his mind, because if he wanted to be ruthless and completely pacify the indigenous people, he would have to spend a lot of effort and it would inevitably affect the growing national power of the Ming Dynasty.

Ming Dynasty, which is developing at a rapid pace, must not pause because of this incident.

The current Ming Dynasty is like a super ship sailing forward at full speed, changing with each passing day.

If the engine suddenly stalls midway and has to accelerate again, it is simply a waste of precious time.

Ji Boying naturally knew this.

and.

With the current manpower, there is no need to use the military power of the "Jingtai-Tianshun" dynasty.

Just foreign aid is enough.

Hongwu, Jianwen, Yongle, Hongxi, Xuande, Chenghua, Jiajing, Zhengde, the eight time-space Ming Dynasties, which means that 80,000 elites can come to any other dynasty at any time.

Moreover, both Japan and Java are within the territory controlled by the Ming Dynasty. According to the rules, these 80,000 foreign aid troops can arrive instantly.

Thoughts, slight movement.

All of a sudden.

In the elegant room at the top of the pavilion, four figures appeared.

They are: Hongwu Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, Jiajing Qi Jiguang, Yu Dayou. (End of chapter)
