Daming: Distribution of Lingnan, you develop the Pearl River Delta?

Chapter 277 The Complex Chen Dynasty

What Zhu Fang wants is the land owned by the Chen Dynasty.

In his opinion, the whole world is not the land of kings.

It's all his!

Therefore, as long as the Chen dynasty is willing to hand over its territory and surrender, Zhu Fang will naturally welcome it.

only……

Chen Zhaoting is just a princess of the Chen Dynasty. Can she make this decision?

Zhu Ping expressed doubts.

However, Zhu Xi has many ways to test.

If Chen Zhaoting can't decide, then I'm sorry, but Zhu Xiang won't talk to her either.

Since we have to welcome guests, we definitely can’t do it in the mourning hall.

Zhu Ping ordered that all the envoys from the Chen Dynasty be sent to the hotel to receive and rest.

Then, wait for Zhu Xi's call.

Zhu Xi started to make a fuss here. He first called Du Ziping.

This was not Du Ziping's first visit to the Ming Dynasty.

He was here last time.

However, that experience left him in shock afterwards...

Can you believe it?

He was a dignified envoy of the Chen Dynasty, and he was sent to the most polite and civilized country in the world. However, he was repeatedly blackmailed and even spent a lot of money, but he couldn't do anything about it.

I haven’t said this yet.

In the end, the group of them was thrown directly onto the ship. When they woke up, they all returned to the Chen Dynasty...

If we were unlucky and the ship suddenly sank, wouldn't we risk our lives?

Not to mention that he was sent to Panyu Mansion several times later, but he encountered various situations every time on the way.

Now, Du Ziping was feeling panicked.

Especially when he saw that the building of Prince Qin's palace was so magnificent, but in his eyes it looked extremely gloomy and cold, which made him feel intimidated... In fact, the most important thing was the pressure from the upcoming meeting with Zhu Xi.

Yes.

This King of Ming Qin, whom he had never met before, already made Du Ziping feel extremely terrifying.

Du Ziping was very scared.

When he was brought to the front of a palace in Prince Qin's residence, Du Ziping even threw himself down on the ground and said to the people next to him: "Please tell His Highness the King of Qin, the foreign minister... oh, no! It's the slave Du Ziping, waiting for His Highness Summoned.”

What shape is this?
Xin Ying, who was in charge of waiting here, was dumbfounded. At this time, she was dressed in men's clothing and looked very heroic. She entered the hall and said to Zhu Ping: "Du Ziping is here, but... he is lying outside. "

"Lying down?"

Zhu Xi was speechless and wondered: "It seems that the Chen Dynasty does not have such a salute, right? No matter, let him in."

Xin Ying nodded and left.After a while, Xin Ying came in.

Du Ziping also came in.

However, it looked like he was being 'led' by Xin Ying... He crawled into the palace on all fours, not daring to raise his head, and his voice was trembling when he spoke: "Slave Du Ziping, pay your respects to His Highness King Qin!"

"You are a minister of the Chen Dynasty, why do you claim to be my king's slave?" Zhu Xi asked, his tone was flat, and he couldn't hear the sadness or joy.

This made Du Ziping even more confused about Zhu Xi's inferiority. He could only bite the bullet and replied: "Reporting to Your Highness, the Chen Dynasty is about to surrender to the Ming Dynasty. Our Du family moved to the Central Plains after the Tang Dynasty. Those in Champa now recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors, so everyone in the Du clan is very supportive of the Chen Dynasty's surrender to the Ming Dynasty and return to the rule of the Central Plains Dynasty!"

"Oh?"

Zhu Feng said: "You really support the surrender of the Chen Dynasty from the bottom of your heart, isn't it because the Ming Dynasty is too powerful?"

"I sincerely hope that the Chen family will surrender, but at the same time His Highness the King of Qin is also powerful!" Du Ziping responded cautiously.

"Haha, get up and talk."

Zhu Xi finally laughed.

This also eased the tension in Du Ziping's heart. He stood up carefully, but still did not dare to look at Zhu Ming.

Until Zhu Xi spoke: "Why, I am right in front of you, but you don't dare to look?"

"How...how can someone like a slave and dog tarnish His Highness's holy face?" Du Ziping explained quickly.

"It's okay, I allow you to see it."

Zhu Yu said coldly: "Didn't you see it when you were in the mourning hall? Du Ziping, put away what you did in the Chen Dynasty! In our Ming Dynasty, we actually didn't care about these so-called 'rules'." ’, when two people are talking, if you can’t look into each other’s eyes, I don’t think it’s easy to find out whether the other party is telling the truth or lying, right?”

"Your Majesty's enlightenment!"

Du Ziping was so frightened that he fell to his knees with a plop and said quickly: "Every word of this slave is sincere!"

After several tests, it seems that this Du Ziping and his family Zhancheng Du's family should all support the Chen Dynasty's surrender to the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Fang stopped probing and said: "Get up! I said that in the Ming Dynasty, there was no need to kneel down at every turn. Furthermore, I am not talking about you, but I want to know if the Chen Dynasty wants to surrender. How many people will oppose my Ming Dynasty? The most important thing is, what does your emperor think in his heart?"

Du Ziping stood up immediately after hearing this, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, to be honest, when the slaves discussed the decision to surrender to the Ming Dynasty at the Chen Dynasty's court meeting, there was indeed a lot of resistance. Among them, The biggest resistance is naturally the Champa King's party. As for the Emperor... To be honest, the current Chen Dynasty has reached the end of its dynasty."

"How do you say this?" Zhu Ping looked over curiously.

Sure enough, after going through this for a few times, Du Ziping's thoughts had completely turned towards the Ming Dynasty.

It seemed that he planned to tell Zhu Chen all the internal affairs of the Chen Dynasty.

Du Ziping replied: "Returning to His Royal Highness, the slaves and maidservants in the Chen Dynasty were not actually appointed by the emperor of the Chen Dynasty, but were recommended by the family. In the Chen Dynasty, people like slaves and maidservants are still there are many……"

He didn't finish what he said, and he didn't say it clearly and directly.

But Zhu Xi heard it, and he asked: "Are you saying that the Chen Dynasty has actually been controlled by major families?"

"The Chen Dynasty has four major families: Chen, Hu, Li, and Du. These four major families actually control the military power in various parts of the Chen Dynasty. The King of Champa is actually a sudden army. Although it is now defeated by the army of His Highness King Qin Although defeated, the King of Champa is still powerful in front of the four major families... However, the weakest one currently is actually the Chen family."

Du Ziping's words confirmed Zhu Xi's conjecture.

There seems to be a huge problem with the distribution of power within the Chen Dynasty.

Otherwise, how could the Champa king still dare to rebel openly?
The key point is that a Champa king rebelled, but for several years, the Chen Dynasty could not do anything against him... It turns out that there are so many factions in the army within the Chen Dynasty!
