I'm only seven years old, Lao Zhu, you let me supervise the country?

Chapter 149 The people's hearts are available, is the magic stick going to the end?

coast.

When Zhu Yunxi landed with the soldiers of the new army, the crowd who came to greet them burst into cheers like mountains and seas.

At this moment, waiting for his triumphant return here, there are not only the army led by Lan Yu, but also many local people in Songjiang.

Most of the people in the Ming Dynasty still lived in the countryside.

Not many people live in Fucheng.

But once the Japanese pirates and rebels occupy the city and defeat the army, they will also go to loot the villages.

It’s just that the distribution of villages is very scattered.

Looting one by one takes a lot of time.

The Japanese pirates and rebels occupied Songjiang Mansion for too short a time, and most of the villages have not been slaughtered and looted by them.

Despite this, people in the countryside are also panicked.

In this era, there were no advanced means of transportation in later generations, and it was very difficult to escape.

Although many people fled, there were many more who still stood firm in the village, leaving their fate to God.

Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, Songjiang Fucheng had been recovered.

The imperial army almost fell from the sky and swept away the Japanese pirates and rebels in an instant.

The news that the new army was a heavenly soldier and that the emperor's grandson was the reincarnation of a god spread like the wind throughout Songjiang.

It spread vividly and vividly.

"Even the Japanese pirates and rebels knelt down and worshiped the grandson, calling him a great god."

"Isn't it? If it weren't for God, would a seven-year-old child be able to command thousands of troops?"

"I don't think any of the famous generals from ancient times are as good as him. Even if the Soldier Immortal is reincarnated, it's impossible to pacify the Japanese pirates and rebels so quickly, right?"

"I heard that His Royal Highness Taisun took back Songjiang Prefecture City with only five hundred soldiers, and now he is bringing troops to attack the old stronghold of the Japanese pirates."

"500 people will wipe out the Japanese pirates and rebels? Impossible? There are far more than 500 people in our village!"

"Can the people in your village compare with His Highness Taisun's Heavenly Soldiers?"

"That's true."

"I also heard from the teacher that since ancient times, even for seven-year-old emperors, after ascending the throne, ministers such as Gu Ming have been responsible for handling government affairs. How can anyone really let children handle government affairs? That is, our emperor's grandson is the reincarnation of a god. , that’s why you have such ability.”

"Isn't that right? Just because he is not the eldest grandson and is only seven years old, His Majesty is still very hesitant to canonize him as the emperor's grandson. Later, all the civil and military officials, the people of the capital, the Imperial Academy's students, and the military generals submitted a letter together , and made him the crown prince."

"I have also heard about this. At that time, a fisherman in the capital cut out a piece of cloth with the words "Great Ming Dynasty, the King of the South is established" from the belly of the fish. At that time, His Highness Taisun had just been canonized as King of the South."

"I've also heard about this. Someone fished out a stone in the Yangtze River. On it was written, "The King of the South will be established, and the world will be prosperous." Sure enough, this god is different from ordinary people. God has given a will."

"Hahaha, we also have a scholar there who said that this kind of thing is man-made and can only deceive ignorant people. They scholars will not be deceived. I think he is just stupid because of reading."

Everyone nodded.

A scholar is only stupid when he reads books, so he will question everything.

The more everyone talked, the more excited they became, and the more outrageous they became.

"If he becomes the emperor in the future, then we Ming people will all be blessed."

"That's for sure. At that time, the world will be peaceful, the weather will be good, the grain will be plentiful, and there will be more than enough every year!"

"It is said that when His Highness Taisun was born, auspicious auspiciousness descended from the sky and purple energy traveled thirty thousand miles from the east."

"Isn't this normal? Whenever a saint ascends to this world or a god reincarnates, visions will come down from heaven."

"I've also heard people say that His Majesty the Great Sun can write at the age of one and martial arts at the age of two. At the age of three, the teacher can no longer teach him."

"When His Highness Taisun was writing poems in Jixian Tower, many people saw dragons rising into the sky from the Yangtze River."

"His Royal Highness Taisun is so powerful that he can catch a tiger with his bare hands."

"No way, he is still a seven-year-old child."

"You know nothing. He is a god. Do gods understand? Does Nezha know? He can make trouble in the sea at the age of three. Even the dragon king was caught, skinned and cramped. Our great grandson is not half inferior to Nezha. He can catch a tiger with his bare hands. What?"

"That's right. Without this ability, how could we have wiped out tens of thousands of Japanese pirates and rebels with just a few hundred soldiers and horses."

"Makes sense!"

"Makes sense!"

……

Three become tigers.

People always like to add fuel to this kind of story.

Each person adds a little bit, and gradually becomes beyond recognition.

From boasting that His Royal Highness Taisun is versatile in both civil and military affairs, he slowly went to the legend of the prehistoric.

If I keep talking, I'm afraid it will turn into holding the sun and moon in my hands and picking stars...

Everyone's eyes widened when they saw the ship approaching the shore.

I want to see if His Royal Highness the grandson in the legend is like Na Chi, with three heads and six arms?

Amidst deafening cheers, Zhu Yunxu walked off the boat.

The common people could clearly see that it was really a six or seven-year-old baby, followed by a girl of average age.

He is majestic and full of energy.

Surrounded by many majestic and mighty sergeants, although they don't have overpowering arms and don't hold weapons in their hands, they seem to be more powerful and domineering than Na Chi in the temple.

It's really a fairy reincarnation!

Hurala!
The common people knelt down in unison.

"See His Royal Highness Taisun!"

"See His Royal Highness Taisun!"

……

Zhu Yunzhen didn't expect such a big scene, but he felt a little uncomfortable.

Lan Yu stepped forward to greet him.

"His Royal Highness, the battle of annihilating the Japanese has created miracles in a row. I am afraid that there is no one before, and there will be no one to come."

The fire in the Japanese pirate stronghold burned for three days.

He had sent someone ashore to notify him before, and Lan Yu received the news as soon as he arrived at the beach.

"It was rumored everywhere that the grandson was the reincarnation of a god, but we never believed it. Now it seems that it is true." Lan Yu was filled with emotion.

Jiang Yu said next to him: "If His Royal Highness was not the reincarnation of a god, how could he have such abilities at the age of seven? Although the common people like to spread rumors, but what they said this time is really true."

you two...

Zhu Yunxi's face turned red.

I am just trying to fool the Japanese pirates and their traitorous servants into killing each other to prevent the New Army soldiers from bleeding and dying. Do you still take this seriously?

But after looking at their expressions, and then at the people kneeling on the shore, he suddenly felt that this magic stick might have to continue to pretend.

"Folks, please get up."

Zhu Yunxi shouted to the people.

The common people kneeling on the ground got up from the ground after hearing this, and thousands of pairs of eyes looked at him.

The common people are all very curious about this "immortal grandson".

"The Japanese pirates have been wiped out, and their nest was destroyed by fire."

"All the Japanese pirates were either buried in the sea of ​​fire and burned to ashes, or jumped into the sea to feed the fish."

As soon as Zhu Yunxi's voice fell, the common people cheered again.

Many had tears in their eyes.

Although the city of Songjiang was captured, it was the first time since the founding of the Ming Dynasty.

But before that, the small-scale Japanese pirates harassed the countryside, but never stopped.

As a commoner in the coastal area, which family has no relatives killed by Japanese pirates?
Whose house has not been robbed?

At this moment, when they heard that the Japanese pirates had been wiped out by the grandson, all of them burst into tears.

After the cheers gradually died down, Zhu Yunxi went on to say:

"Gu has invited the imperial court to release the sea ban and allow the people along the coast to go to sea freely, fish, and trade with overseas merchants."

As soon as these words came out, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.

The eyes of the common people are full of inconceivable colors.

In the arena, a gray-haired old man asked tremblingly, "This... this... is this true?"

Zhu Yunxuan smiled and said: "Old man, although Gu is a child, he is also a grandson. He is ordered to supervise the country. How can it be childish?"

"Great!" The old man made a plop with excitement, knelt down, looked up at the sky, and said, "God is open, the Ming Dynasty has banned the sea."

Not only him, many people are like this.

Excited one by one.

With the production conditions of this era, all the people can do is rely on the mountains to eat, and rely on the sea to eat the sea.

Only in this way can we support our family.

But because of the Japanese pirates' rebellion, starting from the Yuan Dynasty, the court began to ban the sea.

Despite this, people secretly go to the sea to do business and fish... There are always many people who go to the sea to make a living.

But once discovered by the court, he will be severely punished.

Many people lost their lives because of it.

But the people had no choice. They had to get something to eat and survive.

Looking at the sea in front of them is like guarding a treasure mountain, but they are not allowed to enter the mountain. Who can bear this?
Moreover, in order to prevent the people from secretly going to the sea, the government also drove them inland and did not allow them to live on the seaside. Many of the fertile fields along the coast were abandoned.

Many people who originally lived not far from the sea even died because of the destruction of their homes.

At this time, when they heard that the sea ban was to be lifted and they would be allowed to enter the sea freely, it was no wonder that these Songjiang people couldn't help but feel happy and filled with emotion.

The Japanese pirates are gone, and they are free to go to sea in the future.

His Highness Taisun is definitely the reincarnation of a god.

The people knelt down again and kowtowed in thanksgiving.

Zhu Yunzhen said: "Gu Huan decided to pick a place on the seaside in this area and build a harbor city for ships to berth and trade."

"The imperial court will withdraw money, and Gu also hopes that you will contribute money if you have money, and if you are strong, you will work together to build this city well."

"Everyone say, okay?"

"it is good!"

As soon as his words fell, the people answered in unison, and the sound shook the nine heavens.

A smile appeared at the corner of Zhu Yunzhen's mouth.

Today's Songjiang Prefecture governs the area that will become the international metropolis of later generations - Shanghai.

As the outlet of the Yangtze River, connected to the Yangtze River above, the sea below, and the Huangpu River passing through it, this place undoubtedly has unique geographical advantages.

In addition, the foundation of Songjiang Mansion itself is also very good.

The soil is fertile, the yield per mu of fields is high, and the commodity economy is developed.

If we want the Ming Dynasty to usher in the Age of Discovery, conduct overseas colonization, and develop international trade, then Songjiang Prefecture is undoubtedly the most suitable as a central node city.

He wants to build a miracle city here to promote the entire Ming Dynasty to accelerate towards a new era.

This must first obtain the support of the local people.

If anyone obstructs them on the grounds of destroying Feng Shui, although Zhu Yunzhen can suppress it and enforce it, I am afraid it will still have a huge adverse impact.

Why not use my status as a "fairy" at this moment to resolve possible conflicts in the future invisibly?

What's more, Zhu Yunxuan was still very clear about the economic situation of the Ming Dynasty.

To be honest, the treasury does not have much money.

After all, Daming has only been established for more than [-] years, and it uses troops every year, which costs a lot.

But he wants to vigorously develop the new army, engage in technological research and manufacturing, and build ocean-going treasure ships...all of which require money.

How much money can be spent to build a new seaport city?

It would be best if private forces can be mobilized to raise funds.

But don't underestimate this.

Many temples among the people were built with donations from the common people.

Even poor people with no money can still contribute through work.

After all, doing farm work is seasonal.

The really busy time of the year in the fields is mainly spring plowing and autumn harvest.

When you have free time, you can focus on construction.

Looking at the boiling people and enthusiastic crowd below, Zhu Yunxi seemed to see a new city slowly rising from the horizon.

……

……

……

Jinling.

The Imperial Palace, the Temple of Heaven.

While the court meeting is in progress.

After all the civil and military officials paid their respects, the eunuch shouted: "If there is something to do, we will start to act, if there is nothing to do, we will leave the court."

"Your Majesty!"

Huang Zicheng walked out of the queue of courtiers.

"I heard that there was a good news ahead, but for some reason, Song Guogong Feng Sheng received the good news, but he didn't submit it to the court. Instead, he locked up the person who reported it."

"Oh?" Old Zhu's voice was slightly surprised, and he asked, "Feng Aiqing, is there such a thing?"

Feng Sheng quickly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I am waiting to report this matter. The good news I received yesterday is full of absurdity, and it is obvious at a glance that it is nonsense."

"Although it is not uncommon for generals at the front to exaggerate and falsely report military achievements, but this is the first time I have seen something as absurd as this successful report."

"So the person who reported the news was captured and questioned strictly. But this person insisted that the good news was true."

"I don't dare to make the decision without permission. I have brought the good news and submitted it to the emperor for your Majesty's decision."

As he spoke, he took out the good news from his sleeve, bent down and held it in both hands.

The eunuch hurriedly came over, took the good news, and delivered it to Lao Zhu.

Zhu Yuanzhang turned it over and looked, his face suddenly changed again and again.

He was overjoyed at first, but then his face slowly turned gloomy.

After a long time, Lao Zhu put away the good news and asked: "Feng Aiqing, are you saying that you suspect that this good news is false?"

Feng Sheng raised his head and said: "Since I followed Your Majesty, I have led troops in east and west campaigns for more than thirty years. I have fought hundreds of major and small battles. If I ask myself, I can be called a man who knows the military."

"In my view, the war process contained in the victory report is not only exaggerated, but made up and made up indiscriminately."

"I'm not a three-year-old child, how can I be deceived by such good news?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was thoughtful, but remained silent.

After a while, he ordered the eunuch: "Send the good news and let everyone see it."

The eunuch quickly took the report and sent it to the leading minister, and then circulated it one by one.

"Everyone has finished watching! Tell me, what do you think?" Old Zhu asked.

All the ministers immediately spoke out.

"Your Majesty, Song Guogong is right. The content of this good news is too ridiculous."

"This is not like a military intelligence report, but more like a fairy tale told by a storyteller."

"False claims of military merit have always been common, so it's not surprising. But his fabrication is too outrageous, right?"

"Fake, this is absolutely fake!"

"If this is true, I will write my name backwards from now on!"

……

In court, almost all civil and military officials believed that the victory report must be false.

Only Huang Zicheng said loudly: "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations to Your Majesty! In just a few days, good news came from the front line. It seems that the Japanese pirates' rebellion can be settled at a snap. Songjiang City will definitely be recovered within a few days."
