I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 1130 Do What You Want
"Actually, we want to open up overseas, clean up noble moths by the way, and even pacify the Quartet.

The main reason is that a few months ago, that kid Zhanji was taken overseas, which inspired me! "

Zhu Yunwen stared,
"What's the situation, that kid Zhanji has encountered such a thing?
What exactly is going on! "

At the same time, Tang Sai'er was also extremely surprised, and said dumbly in his heart,

"What's the situation? It's my business! Why don't I know?"

So Li Tian simply told Zhu Yunqi about Zhu Zhanji's kidnapping, being trapped on a small island, digging treasures, and fighting pirates when he was besieging the remnants of the Ming Cult.

Of course, he skipped most of the things involving Tang Sai'er.

It's not that he doesn't want to mention it, but that he doesn't want more people to know that he came up with the following series of ideas only because he wanted to get acquainted with such a legendary woman.

If I said directly that I had such a great idea because of a woman, wouldn't I be ashamed of it.

"The people who kidnapped Zhanji didn't intend to hurt Zhanji, but planned to use his ability to open up a free country overseas that is not restricted by the rules of Ming Dynasty.

At that time, I felt that this idea was very good, so I came up with the current plan..."

Before Zhu Yunqi closed his mouth in surprise, Li Tian said slowly and meaningfully,

"I have also considered that one day in the future, if my sons are capable, I will throw them overseas and give them a piece of land.

Whether they want to be kings and hegemony and enjoy life, or develop the economy, or become a qualified regional governor, this is their choice. I don't care about future affairs, and I don't bother to care about them! "

Although Li Tian spoke plainly, in Zhu Yunwen's ears, he didn't hesitate to say thunder to Qing Tian.

If it was said that Li Tian planned to expel all those nobles overseas, it was just an expedient measure, but if he also threw his son, the prince of Daming, overseas, it would be tantamount to completely subverting Zhu Yuanzhang's decision. Under the basic national policy ah.

"Gao Chi, you... are you planning to turn Daming into your own back garden?

Aren't you afraid that if something happens to you, you won't even be able to find a person who will succeed you? "

Zhu Yunqi's words are not alarmist.

When Zhu Yuanzhang made the national policy of assigning princes, he was actually thinking about the fact that eggs cannot be put in one basket at the same time.

Just like the Han Dynasty back then, even if the emperor is gone, as long as there is still a county king, the Ming Dynasty will not be regarded as a subjugated country. In this way, the Ming Dynasty may become an undefeated dynasty for thousands of years.

It's just that neither Zhu Yuanzhang nor Liu Bang at that time could have imagined that their descendants would multiply to an astonishing extent after hundreds of years.

There are hundreds of thousands of royal children and millions of their vassals. These people need a huge and almost scary tax burden to feed them. In the end, the country will be overwhelmed and will be dragged down by these fat pig-like guys.

One King Jing of Zhongshan had more than 100 sons. In the late Ming Dynasty, there were more than one million clan children.

For such a huge group, the tax burden consumed every year is much higher than supporting millions of troops.

Especially in the late Ming Dynasty, after more than 200 years of development, a majestic empire can't even afford military expenditures of several million taels, which is no different from a joke.

In contrast, the nobles with big tails can only be regarded as small moths, while the children of the clan are huge and bloated vampires, and they will never stop until the country is sucked clean.

Li Tian also considered the situation in the future, so he treated them equally, and threw all these moths who were of no use to the country overseas.

Zhu Yunqi didn't understand, Li Tian also understood in his heart.

The Ming Dynasty has a history of only seven or eighty years, and there are only one or two hundred descendants of the clan, which is far from reaching the level of the late Ming Dynasty.

But this does not prevent Li Tian from planning for a rainy day.

Although there are certain risks in doing so, it can prevent ambitious princes like King Ning and Zhu Di from coveting the throne, which will lead to the disintegration of the country from within.

You must know that internal strife has always been the root cause of a strong country or a weak power.

After Li Tian briefly shared his thoughts with Zhu Yunqi.

Zhu Yunqi also fell into silence.

It seemed that he remembered his extreme actions back then and the tragic consequences in the end.

He sighed and shook his head wryly,

"I'm not as good as you, Gao Chi!
If I could have thought of the current method back then, why would I have used all my tricks, resulting in the loss of life, and finally returned with hatred, hiding for so many years without a human being or a ghost..."

Li Tian could tell that although he had been a monk for more than 20 years, he still felt somewhat regretful and resentful in his heart.

This is justifiable. For example, suppose you are the heir of a large group. Just a few days after becoming the CEO, you asked your own uncle to propose a settlement. Not only did you give yourself a dime of the property, but you also sent people around. Hunt down yourself.

No matter how big-hearted a person is, he probably won't be able to swallow this breath.

It's just that today, after chatting with Li Tian so much, Zhu Yunqi has completely thought about it.

I am indeed inferior to my fourth uncle, and far inferior to this cousin who is several years younger than me.

In the hands of their father and son, Daming may really be much better than in his own hands.

In addition to that kid Zhu Zhanji, he had seen him secretly, and he felt that he was almost carved out of the same mold as his fourth uncle.

Not only is he ambitious and talented, he is even more benevolent than his fourth uncle. With such an excellent heir, even if his cousin dies one day, Daming's country will not be shaken.

He really didn't have anything to worry about, and he had completely lost his mind to snatch the throne back from their father and son.

The moment he figured this issue out, Zhu Yunqi found that not only was he not lost, but he felt very relaxed.

It was like throwing away a huge ambition that had suppressed me for decades, and the whole person seemed to have been reborn from head to toe, and even every pore was extremely relaxed.

"Gao Chi, cousin, I am very happy, I have been able to talk with you for so long today, you have untied the knot in my heart for many years, and completely freed me from this knot.

This world will completely belong to you from now on.

I can finally do what I want to do with peace of mind. "
