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

Chapter 427 Lao Zhu’s teachings!Put the world first!
And just when Zhu Yunzhen re-appointed Xu Huizu, and planned to continue to lead the Ming Dynasty navy southward, and fight a mighty and vigorous battle.

The Khmer Empire and the Srivijaya Kingdom, which were far away in the Indian Ocean, had an unprecedented and grand meeting.

Among them, the Khmer Empire was a land country, while the Srivijaya Kingdom was all islands. Together, the two were just stuck at the gateway of the Ming Dynasty's westward expansion.

As long as these two countries unite.

Then the merchant ships of the Ming Dynasty would never be able to travel through this sea area unless they took a detour from further away.

But this is a detour, given that today's technology is not advanced.

It will take at least half a year!

This is undoubtedly equivalent to blocking Daming's way to go to sea!It even blocked the possibility of Ming Dynasty developing maritime trade in the future!
……

Three Buddhas bring the country together.

Envoys from the Khmer Empire crossed the sea and came to discuss important matters with the people of Sri Lanka.

What they did was to completely cut off the Ming Dynasty’s maritime trade path!

So that the Ming Dynasty's maritime trade can only be controlled by them, and all Ming Dynasty ships traveling in this sea area must pay them to pass!

At that time, you can use Ming Dynasty’s money to support your own army!
As long as they can continue to suck blood from the huge empire of the Ming Dynasty, even the Khmer Empire and the Srivijaya Kingdom will no longer be weak before long!

in the palace.

The king of Srivijaya warmly received the envoys from the Khmer Empire.

And they solemnly introduced Captain Edward, the leader of the fleet from the West, to the Khmer Empire.

When asked how to evaluate the Ming Dynasty's navy.

Captain Edward just hugged his wine can, thinking about it without letting go, and said drunkenly:
"Huh? The navy of that distant Eastern Empire?"

"I admit, it's scary, but I have the most heroic crew!"

"And last time, their navy was severely damaged by me! I also captured one of their most magnificent warships!"

"Now their navy is only half as effective in combat. Thank God!"

"Hiccup~"

Suddenly, people in the Srivijaya Kingdom and the Khmer Empire were overjoyed.

The Ming Dynasty's navy is famous!Although they have never come into contact with each other before, the opponent's fighting power is well-known far and near, and has spread to all surrounding countries!

Good at this time.

Captain Edward from the West appeared and killed the Ming Dynasty's navy by surprise.

It actually severely damaged the Ming Dynasty's navy!

"This is really great news! Now, those fat merchant ships of the Ming Dynasty will no longer be able to escape from our grasp!"

"Yes, these merchant ships will be the treasury of our two countries!"

"Hahaha!"

They believed the information from Edward's mouth.

Even if the other party is even an alcoholic!

"Send the order! From now on, all routes along the way will be blocked and no merchant ships from the Ming Dynasty will be allowed to pass!"

"Unless you are willing to hand over one-fifth of the commission!"

"Otherwise, we will not let you go! If anyone dares to break through, no matter who they are, they will all be snatched away by me!"

It has been several years since Ming Dynasty went to sea.

For the first time, we encountered a joint blockade between two major powers!The purpose is to block the Ming Dynasty's merchant ships in the offshore sea and prevent them from sailing far!

And when Zhu Yunzhen knew the news.

Not furious.

He just smiled indifferently, the Khmer Empire and the Sri Lankan Kingdom really treated Ming Dynasty as a soft persimmon!
Then come and give it a try!
Let’s see who is the weak persimmon!
Zhu Yunxuan immediately ordered: "Take Xu Huizu and Zheng He and go south immediately!"

"Lead our Ming Navy into an all-out war with the Khmer Empire and Sri Lanka! We must let them see how powerful our Ming Navy is!"

But it's a long way to go.

I'm afraid there won't be any news within a month or two.

………………

Daming Hospital.

Quiet room.

After dealing with the affairs of the Khmer Empire and Srivijaya Kingdom, Zhu Yunzhen had some leisure time.

So he came to take care of Lao Zhu.

Even if Lao Zhu doesn't need his care, there are many imperial doctors here and some are maids.

But Zhu Yunxuan felt that what Lao Zhu needed most at this time was definitely companionship.

Especially the company of loved ones.

In fact, throughout Lao Zhu's life, we can find that Lao Zhu was a person who cared very much about future generations. This can be seen from the fact that Lao Zhu named his sons kings and set such a high salary.

But unfortunately.

Throughout his life, Lao Zhu always gave gifts to people with white hair and those with black hair.

One of his sons died earlier than the other!

In this life, Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Yunxi even wanted to plot regicide and kill their own grandfather!

Such actions hurt Lao Zhu's heart even more.

So at this last moment, although Lao Zhu didn't say anything, in his heart, he still hoped that Zhu Yunzhen could come and spend more time with him.

"Grandpa Emperor."

"Your first regret has been fulfilled for you by your grandson."

"I wonder what your other regrets are?"

"My grandson wants to help you complete it as well."

One duck is also being chased, and two ducks are being chased. Zhu Yunxuan felt that it was best for Lao Zhu to express all his regrets in one breath.

Zhu Yunxuan can also help Lao Zhu realize his regrets.

But what regrets does Lao Zhu actually have?His life was already complete enough.

The so-called regret was just a lie made to make Zhu Yunzhen less lazy.

But now, Lao Zhu was moved by Zhu Yunzhen's filial piety. If Zhu Yunzhen could really fulfill his three regrets, it might become a good story in the future.

But Lao Zhu also knows that now is the most dangerous and critical period.

If the regret raised is too difficult, it will undoubtedly distract Zhu Yunzhen and create opportunities for the enemy.

So Lao Zhu thought for a while.

Said: "Our second wish seems simple, but to implement it, it is definitely the most complicated thing in the world."

"We don't force you to finish it all at once. As long as you can finish it in this life, then I, Lao Zhu, will probably wake up laughing even underground."

Zhu Yunzhen was a little curious.

Asked: "Grandpa Huang, what exactly?"

Lao Zhu smiled.

Said: "This is a regret that we have never been able to complete in this life."

"The ancients said: The resident has his own house, the sick has his doctor, the diligent has his industry, the laborer has his reward... The worker has his salary, the farmer has his land..."

"These seem to be just the most basic requirements."

"But in this world, it is the most difficult requirement to fulfill!"

"How difficult is it to make the people of the world truly enjoy happiness?"

"But we just want to save the people of Ming Dynasty."

"Everyone can live a good life."

This time, Lao Zhu's regret can be said to be very simple, but also extremely difficult.It's all based on your own understanding.

To put it simply, for some people who only have themselves in their hearts and have no world or all the people, the current Ming Dynasty has already achieved the four words of living and working in peace and contentment, and almost achieved every one of them!

It seems that the current Ming Dynasty is not much different from what Lao Zhu said!
Who among the people of the Ming Dynasty did not have a place to live?
The construction of Daming Hospital also solved the problem of medical treatment for the people.

Workers have their wages, farmers have their land, and this can only be realized here with Zhu Yunxu!In the past dynasties, there was no way to solve this problem!

Just rely on one to be exempted from corvee.

Zhu Yunxuan is enough to rank at the top of the emperor list!
But is the 'good life' in Lao Zhu's mind really that simple?No, it's far from that simple!
Zhu Yunzhen knew it very well.

Daming looks good now, that's because he sees it from the court's view.

That's because I stand at the highest point of the capital and look down!

That’s why we can see the peace and prosperity of the country and the peace of the world!Only then can we see that all the people of Ming Dynasty are living a good life!

But actually?
Zhu Yunxuan knew very well, especially after his last inspection of Shaanxi, that the good days of the Ming Dynasty were not so easy to achieve!
In a place where Zhu Yunxuan can't see.

I don’t know how many tragedies are happening!In places where Zhu Yunxuan could not see, I don’t know how many people of the Ming Dynasty were still being oppressed!

I want to truly realize these.

It cannot be solved by Zhu Yunxuan's reforms in the court.

Even in later generations, it is impossible to completely avoid these problems.

Zhu Yunzhen does not expect that everyone in this world will not suffer injustice and that everyone can live the life of their dreams. After all, this is not realistic.

But Zhu Yunxuan hopes.

The Ming Dynasty under his rule was a Ming Dynasty in which dreams could be pursued and realized!
Rather than a Ming Dynasty that can never be achieved despite its efforts!
The people all have the life they long for and pursue. This is the real 'good life' of the Ming Dynasty!
But want to do it.

What Ming Dynasty wants now is not money, nor Zhu Yunzhen's more reforms, but the most important thing.

law!

In the sixth year of Hongwu, although the Ming Dynasty Law had been compiled.

And it spreads all over the world.

However, it was abolished and modified several times later.

Then re-issue it.

It is precisely because Lao Zhu found that this law had many problems at the beginning and needed to be constantly improved!

And now the Ming Dynasty has once again become out of date due to the many developments brought about by Zhu Yunxuan!

The re-editing of the Ming Dynasty Code is extremely urgent!

Maybe it’s time to start pushing forward!

Because only when a brand new Ming law appears, when everything in the world has laws to follow, can fairness and justice be put into action!

"Grandpa Emperor."

"I already know your regret."

"this matter."

"My grandson will definitely regard it as his life's mission! It will also be passed down to future generations!"

"Let all the descendants of the old Zhu family."

"They all aim to lead a 'good life' for the people of Ming Dynasty!"

Three simple words, but the meaning behind them is the most difficult thing to find in this world!
It's easy to want someone to be nice.

But if you want every household and millions of people in the world to be happy, it’s not easy!
Zhu Yunzhen can only do his best!

Lao Zhu was lying on the hospital bed and looking at Zhu Yunzhen kindly.

Said: "You have to remember that you will become the emperor in the future and sit in the position we have now."

"We must put the people of the world first!"

"You have done a good job in this regard. Those conspiracies and tricks will not accomplish anything big!"

"You have the sincerity and ability to solve problems!"

"But they can't!"

"Lao Si is a man who is brave, courageous and capable. To be honest, he is a good candidate to be the emperor."

"But you know why we don't want him to be the emperor."

"Do I have to let you do it?"

"It's precisely because we see the righteous way of heaven and earth in you! What I think about in my heart is the people, and everything I think about is the Ming Dynasty!"

"You bring down the world, and you put the lives of all people more seriously than yourself!"

"Having been the emperor for decades, I know very well that the rights of our old Zhu family are not wrested from the hands of ministers."

"Nor does it come from the support of tens of millions of soldiers."

"It's the support from all the people in the world! Only the people of the Ming Dynasty can truly take it to heart!"

"in this way!"

"Only in this way can the Ming Dynasty last forever!"

Zhu Yunzhen sat aside.

With an unprecedented serious expression, he stood up, cupped his hands and said, "My grandson, please remember Grandpa Huang's teachings!"

"In this life, the world will be my top priority!"

"We must put the common people first!"

"The Ming Dynasty must be our top priority!"

When Lao Zhu saw Zhu Yunxuan being so diligent and serious, he couldn't help but laugh happily.

But he smiled a little too hastily.

After only laughing twice, he started coughing, but he couldn't stop the happy smile on his face.

Ming Dynasty...there are successors!
……

Return to the palace.

Zhu Yunxu was sitting in the imperial study room, but this time there was no confusion in his heart. Zhu Yunxu was completely clear about his future.

That is to lead Ming Dynasty to become the overlord of the world!
Let Ming Dynasty stand proudly on top of the world!
At the same time, we also want to let the people in the Ming Dynasty live a truly good life!
For a moment, endless thoughts began to pour into Zhu Yunzhen's mind!

During this period of time, although Zhu Yunxu said he was fishing for the big fish with a long-term view, the interest groups lurking in the capital always refused to take the bait, which indeed made Zhu Yunxu a little anxious.

Even on weekdays, I am always distracted.

Thinking about when these people will show their flaws.

And when will they really start taking action?
Even more, who is behind these interest groups?And who brought them together!

He was able to hide himself so well under the eyes of Zhu Yunzhen, the capital of the Ming Dynasty, which was strictly guarded.

Zhu Yunzhen didn't believe it.

There is no powerful person behind them to help them cover up!

In fact, this high-ranking person may be right in front of Zhu Yunxu, or he may be Zhu Yunxu's confidant!

So this time.

Zhu Yunxuan had been very tired and wanted to catch clues to uncover this group of people.

Otherwise, Zhu Yunzhen would really have trouble sleeping and eating.

But today, after receiving some teachings from Lao Zhu, Zhu Yunxuan has completely figured it out.

Conspiracies and intrigues never achieve great things!
Only by putting common people first and being kind to them can we truly rule the world!
Even though Zhu Yunzhen is the only one.

There wasn't a single guard around.

All you need to do is raise your arms and countless people will follow!Gather around Zhu Yunzhen and protect him!
This is the real righteousness!

It is also the greatest right path for an emperor!

This is what Lao Zhu wants him to take, and it is also the path Zhu Yunzhen should take!
