Chapter 168 Triwizard Contest for Hegemony

Chapter 168 Triwizard Struggle for Hegemony

Xu Family Garden.

"Your Highness is sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai!"

Yang Feng looked at Zhu Di fishing in the pavilion and said.

"Di is not a person who is sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, but the ambassador is now like the one who is sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, sitting and watching the clouds rise and fall, quietly observing the disputes in the world of our Ming Dynasty. I wonder when the ambassador is going to see it?

How exciting are the conflicts in the Ming Dynasty?"

Zhu Di put away the fishing rod and said.

"Your Highness is joking, Yang is just a guest.

When you are a guest, you have to act like a guest.

No matter how turbulent the world is in the Ming Dynasty, it is ultimately your Zhu family's own business. As a guest, what else can I do other than just watch from the sidelines?"

Yang Feng sat down and said rudely.

Next to him, Zheng He or Ma He as he is now called, quickly poured him tea.

"Then why did the ambassador meet Duke Liang?"

Zhu Di said calmly.

"If I say we are actually here for friendship, will you believe me?"

Yang Feng said.

"I didn't know that Duke Liang was so generous and could still talk about friendship with someone who seriously injured him. However, there is no personal relationship between the two of them. Even though the two of them were friends, Duke Liang, as a minister of the Ming Dynasty, met with envoys from foreign countries in private.

It was also inappropriate. Now that Di knew that the two of them were just for friendship, it relieved his suspicion. He was just afraid that the censors still didn't know that the two of them were for friendship. Tomorrow, he should have seen the censor's memorial to impeach Duke Liang. There was nothing wrong with the ambassador.

, Your Majesty, thinking of the friendship between the two countries, will certainly not hold the ambassador accountable, but as a minister of the Ming Dynasty, Duke Liang will eventually have to face the laws of the Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Di said.

Yang Fenglao looked at him with interest.

"Therefore, Your Highness has to explain this matter to His Majesty the Emperor of your country."

he said.

Sapphire really ignored this.

Of course, it is possible that he didn't care. After all, the emperor's grandson was here. In the past, the emperor's grandson had always helped Zhu Yuanzhang handle memorials, and it would be difficult to impeach him.

But now the emperor's grandson is injured.

If the civil servants take the opportunity to attack, although Zhu Yuanzhang should not want to kill Lan Yu at this time, he does not rule out taking this opportunity to give him another blow. And Zhu Di has now taken the initiative to stand up and lend a helping hand. This clearly shows that he is afraid of the relationship between his two nephews.

The balance of power is out of balance!

After all, the two families are evenly matched, and what he likes is a fight in which both sides lose.

He wants to make the fight more intense.

If the civil officials failed to impeach Lan Yu, the emperor's grandson would inevitably fight back.

You come and I come!

The struggle gradually became more intense.

“It’s just a piece of cake!”

Zhu Di said.

"Has your Majesty ever found out the source of the magic gun used by the assassin? In addition, the person who assassinated the emperor's grandson today used a flintlock gun. No one else has this except the guards of your majesty and the emperor's grandson. Of course, these guards

It couldn't be an assassin, so someone must have imitated it.

That's strange.

These cannot be made by just finding a blacksmith anywhere.

There must be craftsmen on par with the Ministry of Industry.”

Yang Feng said.

So, do you want to deal with your third brother?

"This case is the responsibility of Song Zhong, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, and Di Bu is not involved."

Zhu Di said.

"As a victim, His Highness should do something about this case. I don't think Song Zhong would be so ignorant."

Yang Feng said.

If you want to deal with your third brother, you have to seize the opportunity. There will be no store like this after passing this village.

Zhu Di nodded slightly.

"The ambassador is really worried about me, Ming Dynasty!"

He then said sarcastically.

"Don't tell me, I told your sister the same thing on the way. She also said that Ming Dynasty should give me something in return! But I think since we are friendly countries, we should contribute some efforts for the sake of friendship between the two countries. There is no need for anything.

In return, I have always been selfless."

Yang Fu said shamelessly.

"Sister Fourteen really understands the truth."

Zhu Di said.

Of course, he had no idea what his sister was talking about in return.

"But with the ambassador's heart, you really don't need anything in return. After all, what you want, I, the Ming Dynasty, really can't afford."

He said immediately.

"Your Highness is joking again."

Yang Feng said.

Then the two looked at each other and smiled strangely.

"Is this the end of the friendship between the ambassador and Duke Liang?"

Zhu Di said.

“We had a great time chatting!”

Yang Feng said.

"Then I would like to congratulate you two for settling the old feud. If the emperor's grandson knew that you two would be like this, you would definitely be happy."

Zhu Di said.

"Your Highness is not pleased?"

Yang Feng said with a smile.

Zhu Di smiled slightly.

He was so happy.

The two of you are hooking up. This shows that you choose Zhu Yunxi and are completely on the opposite side. Although Zhu Di will not give up because of this, after all, there is no possibility of giving up now. What's more, Yang Feng has made it clear that the consequences of supporting Zhu Yunxi will only make Zhu Yuanzhang hate Zhu Yunxi even more.

worried.

This incident was a mixed blessing for Zhu Di.

However, the key depends on how far Yang Feng can support Zhu Yunxi.

Are you determined to help Zhu Yunxi ascend to power?

Or is it limited?

After the last conversation with Yang Feng at the Taicang Tower, Zhu Di already knew very well who this guy was. Even if Yang Feng supported Zhu Yunxi, there was a bottom line. The bottom line was that Zhu Yunxi had to follow his ideas, but Zhu Yunxi really knew how to do it.

Is it according to his vision? Now Zhu Yunxi is still young and may not understand many things. As he gets older, he will figure out many things. I am afraid that he will not be what he is now.

After all, he wants to be the emperor.

What he wants is imperial power.

He will change.

Zhu Di was waiting to see Yang Feng's joke.

At this time, the little princess and others appeared at the Moon Gate not far away. The two ended their conversation. The rest was naturally the Xu family's warm hospitality to Ambassador Yang and Princess Hanshan. They were not considered personal outsiders. After all, they were invited by Zhu Di.

Zhu Di did not give up his friendly attitude towards Yang Feng just because he made it clear that he was helping Zhu Yunxi. The two of them maintained their old relationship, which was not bad, but the popularity was limited.

Early the next morning, a dozen imperial censors jointly signed a memorial to impeach Lan Yu and Zhu Di's private relations with foreign ministers, and they were delivered to Zhu Yuanzhang.

It happened that King Yan was also in the palace.

Then King Yan quickly took the initiative to apologize to his father, and explained that it was not a personal relationship with foreign ministers, and his sister was still there.

Including when Lan Yu invited Yang Feng, his sister was also invited, so he mainly invited his sister, Mrs. Liang Guogong, and Mrs. Wei Guogong invited Princess Hanshan, and Ambassador Yang and Princess Hanshan were inseparable. There is no need to explain this, everyone

You know, this will naturally follow.

Therefore, there are no personal relations with foreign ministers.

Princess Hanshan was obviously invited, but Ambassador Yang shamelessly insisted on following her, and it was not convenient for a woman to receive him, so he could only be received by men such as Liang Guogong and Xu Qianshi.

King Yan is also in the Xu Mansion, and as the son-in-law of the Xu family, of course he has to come forward.

That's it.

In this case, it is a misunderstanding.

His Majesty the Emperor directly retained the impeachment memorial.

No processing.

After all, the issue of his daughter and Yang Feng being inseparable would have to be involved once the matter was dealt with.

This kind of thing needs to be kept low-key.

Of course, the main reason is that Zhu Di has already stepped forward to take over this matter, and Zhu Yuanzhang cannot take advantage of the situation to deal with Lan Yu, so let's just let it go!

But on this day, the sacrifice of prisoners that had been delayed due to the assassination was finally completed. Now there was no need to sacrifice prisoners to the Ancestral Temple, so King Yan once again brought his generals who conquered Japan to offer prisoners to the palace.

Ichiban pretended to be the emperor of Japan, and then, with a good attitude towards his confession, he was pardoned and made king of Japan. However, he did not give up the country, but gave him the capital to live in.

According to the standards of the county king.

At the same time, Yoshimitsu Fengyuan was appointed as the Prime Minister of the Japanese state, taking charge of the affairs of the Japanese state.

As for the annual contribution, of course it is also determined.

It's nothing more than a huge amount of gold and silver.

As for the Japanese country, which did not have that many, the Ming Dynasty would provide technical guidance, and then the Japanese country would send miners to mine and smelt. In short, the Japanese country would completely become the mining slave of the Ming Dynasty.

Just mine gold and silver for generations to come.

Just after conferring the title of Prime Minister of the Japanese Kingdom, His Majesty the Emperor also officially announced the crusade against Annan. With the King of Chu as the general commander, he conquered Annan's armies and marched by land and water directly towards Annan. Everyone has already known this, through the Japanese Kingdom

The surrender was officially announced, but His Majesty the Emperor also announced a strange decision at the same time...

Take the King of Yan as the envoy to welcome Jiahe.

Because according to Yang Feng, the envoy of the Daxia Kingdom, there is a land outside the ocean called America, and there are many golden crops in it. If you get it, you will no longer have to worry about famine. Therefore, you will set up an envoy to welcome the golden harvest and organize a fleet to sail to the East Ocean to America to welcome the golden harvest.

But this Ying Jiahe envoy has great power.

Because according to the imperial edict, as long as it is necessary to welcome Jiahe, he will make the decision.

The Ministry of Accounts will give you as much money as you need.

The Ministry of Industry must allocate as many craftsmen as it needs.

The Ministry of War must allocate as many soldiers and warships to him as he needs. It can be said that as long as it is to welcome the Jiahe envoy, it must be met. After all, it is too important to make the world free from famine. Just like other emperors asking for elixir, this

This is the highest principle. However, the official office to welcome the Jiahe envoys was established in the capital. Therefore, in the next period of time, King Yan not only had to be permanently stationed in the capital, but also held great power.

Even military power.

He will build a new type of large ocean-going warship at Longjiang Shipyard.

Different from the currently commonly used hard sails, this kind of warships will use soft sails to enable faster travel, and will also be equipped with a large number of artillery to deter the Native Americans, so these warships will also need a large number of sailors.

This is equivalent to King Yan having a very strong army outside the capital.

This is the scariest thing.

"Is there really a golden harvest in America?"

Lan Yu looked at Yang Feng.

This news is extremely bad for Lan Yu.

This means that Zhu Yuanzhang really wants Zhu Di and Zhu Yunxi to fight in the ring, and now he also adds Zhu Yunwen, because Zhu Yuanzhang then used Zhu Yunwen as a reason to have a family, and made him the county king, because he is the county king and not the vassal king, so

Build him a county palace in the capital.

He can move out of the Ten Prince's Mansion in the future.

The Three Wizards fight for hegemony!

Your Majesty the Emperor wants to play big.

"have!"

Yang Feng said with certainty.

“Can we really eliminate famine in the world?”

Lan Yu said.

"It depends on your definition of famine. If you have enough food, adequate nutrition, and a strong body, then there is no famine. It's a bit of a struggle to eat, and then everyone is sallow and skinny, as weak as a plague chicken.

, living without humans or ghosts, if this can be considered as there is no famine, then this thing can almost do it.

In short, it is incomparable to rice and white noodles, but it can save lives.

But if there is a natural disaster, you will starve to death."

Yang Feng said.

"That's not nonsense. If you don't encounter a natural disaster, why don't you eat rice and flour?"

Lan Yu said.

"That's true!"

Yang Feng said with a smile.

"This is for King Yan to win the hearts of the people. First, he shouts big words to make the people look at King Yan, and then King Yan goes to actually get it. As for whether it is as boasted, it won't be known for three to five years.

, but all of a sudden King Yan became the Buddha of thousands of families. He was invincible in all battles, welcomed the good harvests for the people, and made the people no longer famine. He was like the Three Sovereigns and the Five Emperors.

Like a saint.

Wouldn't it be the people's will to have such a virtuous king as emperor?"

Lan Yu sneered.

"Let's not worry about this. This is also a good thing. Besides, he can welcome Jiahe, and the emperor's grandson can also do other things.

He can establish a righteous school!"

Yang Feng said.

He has always tried his best to promote it.

Even the technology of soft sailing boats was given by him.

However, what he gave was the fore-and-aft sail technology, which was easier to transition from the hard sail technology. More importantly, the sailing speed was fast. After all, it was just to welcome Jiahe, and it was not a large-scale maritime trade.

If a longitudinal sail is used, it is estimated that the round trip can be completed in one year, which will also allow Zhu Yuanzhang to live to see sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn. Although Yang Feng has always been against Zhu Yuanzhang, he still has some respect for him in improving people's livelihood, which can make him

Seeing these things before he died was considered worthy of him.

"Do you think His Majesty can bear it?"

Lan Yu said.

"We don't need to teach those things that he can't bear, and just teach some practical techniques, such as farmland water conservancy, machinery, metallurgy, and textiles. In short, they are all the most practical. That's enough. It's not like the imperial court prohibits private businesses now.

Volunteer school. I will pay the emperor's grandson, and the emperor's grandson will be responsible for running the school. Even if the students who graduate from the school are not wanted by the court, I can still sign a contract with them and hire them at a certain monthly salary.

Isn’t it the people’s will?

We will too!

Then some stories about the emperor's grandson were compiled among the people and passed down.

He has been filial since he was a child, and has a kindhearted heart. He helped the old lady cross the road, and even wrote operas and printed comic strips for him, so that my adopted daughters can spread them, and you can also let your old military households spread them. In this way, coupled with these voluntary studies, the King of Yan also

We are studying Ying Jiahe, and our Holy Lord Mingjun has already come out."

Yang Feng said.

"Isn't this a lie?"

Lan Yu said in shock.

"How can this be a lie? This is called packaging, this is called image design. At that time, many countries relied on this method to select officials. When necessary, the emperor's grandson could be asked to send rice and noodles to the poor in the capital during the New Year and festivals.

Hype?

I am the professional!”

Yang Feng said reservedly.

Indeed, he is professional in hyping him up.

Of course, the key is to start the school first.

As for not teaching ideological things, of course there is no problem. First, teach science and technology. These are originally enlightenment ideas. When the students' thinking gradually becomes scientific, they will think on their own even if they are not taught.

think!

This is the most important.

"Aren't you going to teach you those fallacies?"

Lan Yu said warily.

"First of all, what I said is not heresy. It is a common thought in the future. But since His Majesty the Emperor doesn't like it, then he won't teach it. In the end, it's all for the sake of the emperor's grandson!"

Yang Feng said.

It's as if he is so loyal to the emperor's grandson.
