Ambassador Yang hugged him from left to right, and looked so arrogantly at the Gongyuan Courtyard one by one as he walked in.

Of course, this trial will take many days.

In fact, it was three sessions, one session lasted three days, and I was locked in for three full days. Moreover, it would take half a month after the exam was completed for the results to be released. It is now February, and the real results will not be released until March.

So there is enough time for the various rumors he created to ferment.

In fact, in the afternoon of that day, in front of the Gongyuan Palace, he promised his son Wang Fan from Shanxi Province that he would get a Jinshi, and the news spread as quickly as possible in the capital.

Then by the afternoon of the next day, it became a promise to all Shanxi Juzi, and then it became that the Emperor was forced to promise to give Shanxi Juzi ten Jinshi, and then it became twenty, just like this.

The number of candidates continued to increase, and by the time the first three-day examination was completed, I was shocked to learn that at least fifty Shanxi candidates had won the Jinshi...

And what he said was clear-cut.

Why did Ambassador Yang enter the palace late at night, and why did he argue face to face with the emperor?

Rumor has it that he was even violent.

In short, His Majesty the Emperor finally agreed to give Shanxi at least fifty Jinshi in this subject.

Of course, the examinees, including Shanxi examinees, also sneered at these rumors. After all, there are usually only a few dozen in one subject at present, but no matter what, those Shanxi examinees seemed to have support in their hearts.

Fifty is certainly unrealistic.

But what about ten?

The Shanxi scholars who had been suppressed by the southern scholars suddenly saw the light of hope...

"Ambassador, what do you want to do?"

Zhu Di looked at Yang Feng with interest.

In just a few days, this matter was already known to everyone in the capital, but Zhu Di knew very well that Yang Feng was really just talking about it. He didn't even mention it to the emperor's grandson, let alone asking the emperor for a scholarship quota.

.But with Zhu Di’s intelligence ability, he knew very well that these increasingly powerful rumors were probably spread by Yang Feng himself. His adopted daughters were as ubiquitous as little mice in the capital. They then spread banned books, spread rumors, abducted young children, and beguiled women from good families.

They have long been denounced by Yingtian Mansion as the number one danger in the capital, so if there are rumors that suddenly spread on a large scale, they are the right ones to target.

It can be said that the main culprit for the increasingly corrupt atmosphere in the capital is this group of girls who are like little demons under the demon king.

The widow was so seduced by them that she refused to keep her integrity.

The young man was so bewitched by them that he refused to study the Four Books and Five Classics.

Even young girls are bewitched by them, secretly wearing shameless and strange clothes, and even exposing their legs openly in summer...

Well, this is actually mainly his sister.

After all, his sister has such long legs, it would be a pity not to wear a short skirt.

And this time, these rumors can spread so quickly, basically they can do it.

"Your Majesty, I'm actually very curious, what do you want to do?"

Yang Feng said.

The two of them were currently on board a giant ship with 5,000 materials that was undergoing trial sea trials.

This ship already has the flavor of a sailing battleship, but it uses longitudinal sails, so its firepower cannot be compared with the sailing battleships of the same level in later generations. It only has a row of gun ports, plus deck guns, and the maximum cannon is only six pounds.

There are even some heavy-lift rapid-fire guns on the ship, but considering the current situation at sea and the main tasks ahead, this configuration is enough.

After all, with thirty-two-pound guns, there are no enemy ships worth firing.

Zhu Di is now focusing all his attention on building ships.

At present, eighteen ships have been built, including two ships with five thousand materials and sixteen ships with three thousand materials.

Building ships and training sailors at the same time.

Ten ships have already been transferred to Zhoushan for maritime training.

However, one ship hit the rocks and sank.

But in general, the Ming Dynasty's Ying Jiahe fleet is being completed step by step. According to the original plan, in early May, all 24 warships were completed and under the personal command of Zhu Di, sailing to Fuso's completed Edo Guard...

It's Edo.

The dividing line between the Fuso Metropolitan Commandery Division and the Japanese Empire is the Sumida River.

However, Edo Castle was returned to the Fuso Metropolitan Commandery Department.

If it weren't for the fact that the Ashikaga clan, the Prime Minister of Japan, was founded in Kamakura, and His Majesty the Emperor was merciful and left them a small half of the Kanto Plain, originally King Yan would have included the entire area into the Fuso Capital Commandery Division. But after all, they were Kamakuras.

In the Kura Shogunate, His Majesty the Emperor learned of the origins of the Ashikaga clan and Kamakura, and specifically ordered to leave a piece of land for them. However, because of its strategic location, Edo Castle was just suitable for the Ming army's material transportation, so it was regarded as the Ashikaga clan's sponsoring the Ming Emperor's welcome.

Jiahe was specially presented to the Emperor of Ming Dynasty. The Emperor of Ming Dynasty naturally accepted it happily and praised him for his loyalty.

In short, that is Edowei, and it is also the departure port for welcoming Jiahe.

The fleet headed north in early May this year.

Then go to Edo Guard for another three months of adaptive training and prepare everything.

Set sail in early August.

Of course, at that time it was not King Yan who was in command, but Ma He who was leading the team.

Regarding Yang Feng's strange question, Zhu Di just smiled slightly.

"Your Majesty, we are not outsiders. As for what I want to do, I can say it clearly. I just want to have fun because I got rumors that Liu Sanwu and others want to teach the northerners a lesson. In the previous incident in Shanxi, northern officials and

The performance of the Shanxi gentry made the southern civil servants very angry. After all, Shanxi's success made them envious and jealous. So they planned to use the power of taking the examination. No northerner would take this subject, and I would add fuel to their fire to see if they were good.

I don't really have the guts to do it.

But what exactly do you want to do?

You can say it clearly, you know I won't tell the emperor's grandson.

If your goals are in line with my principles, then I can help you to the maximum extent."

Yang Feng said.

"Xiao Wang has already submitted his petition to move to Fusang."

Zhu Di said.

Yang Feng looked at him quietly...

"However, Xiao Wang has asked himself to take charge of East Asia. From then on, all affairs in East Asia will be handled by Xiao Wang. This is in line with the ambassadorial principle."

Zhu Di said.

"Completely suitable."

Yang Feng said.

So he officially quit?

Of course, Yang Feng was not sure that this was what he really thought. After all, it was a bit surprising that a person like Zhu Di would admit defeat so easily. The situation was indeed unfavorable to him, but no matter how unfavorable it was, there would only be eight people left who could be exploited by his nephew.

Bai Guo was in a bad situation? He didn't admit defeat at that time. He is much stronger now than he was then.

He holds a powerful fleet and controls 20,000 naval forces.

There are three guards behind him.

If he retreats to Fusang, this strength alone will be enough to separate one party from another.

"Then how does the ambassador want to help me?"

Zhu Di said.

"We'll wait until Ying Jiahe comes back. But the king can rest assured. It's hard to say anything else. But if the king and the brothers of the three guards are not short of gold and silver, this Yang can still guarantee it."

Yang Feng said.

Isn’t it simple if there is no shortage of gold and silver?

Go to the Americas to pan for gold, or else there are giant silver mines in Mexico.

But I’m afraid that King Yan doesn’t want to just be a rich man!

Zhu Yuanzhang is getting older and older, and is now accumulating strength, preparing for a fight after his death. Not only Zhu Di, but also the King of Chu, who has hundreds of thousands of troops in Annan, has been deliberately procrastinating, obviously feeling that he has military power.

They couldn't let it go. The King of Hunan took over from the King of Chu to suppress Xiangxi and Guizhou, and he was obviously delaying. After all, the Tuesday Fan of Jin had clearly told them that once the emperor's grandson succeeded to the throne, they would not have a good life.

Although Zhu Yunwen suffered a series of blows, he probably would not admit defeat.

He has no way out.

In short, the Ming Dynasty is heading towards the most dangerous moment step by step, and everyone is waiting for the moment when His Majesty the Emperor dies.

Half a month later.

Embassy of Daxia.

Living room on the third floor.

"Come on, come on, don't be formal. This is not a dragon's pond or a tiger's den."

Yang Feng looked at the invited candidates.
