Chapter 341 You dont have to accept the orphans, but they have to give them away
"Southern Tour?"
In the Palace of Qianqing, Zhu Di thought he heard wrongly, "Are you kidding me?"
Zhu Gaojie said seriously: "Dad, I am serious."
Zhu Di sighed and advised: "It's not like you don't know about the current situation. After I moved the capital, the power of the southern provinces, except for Southern Zhili, the imperial court's control over other provinces has declined, although it is not that Dao It’s a dangerous thing to say, but in terms of stability it is ultimately inferior to Beijing.”
"You know how my body is now. The only support the imperial court can rely on now is you, the prince. Your life is much more valuable than mine. In the Ming Dynasty, no one can die, and I can die. , but nothing can happen to you."
Zhu Gaojiu smiled and said: "I just went to the south to have fun and have fun for a while. Look at what you said, it's like the south is full of mountains and seas of swords and fire. When I walk there, it's like walking around the gate of hell. How can there be so many dangers? As you said, it is precisely because the imperial court does not have strong control over the south that I should go to the south."
"The sky is high and the emperor is far away" is well known to everyone. The Ming Dynasty's system of two capitals, the north and the south, ensured that the power of the imperial court could cover the south, so that someone would not suddenly appear one day claiming to be such-and-such emperor. Huang Tian is dead. Stand up, and then thousands of people will respond and join in the rebellion and leave early."
"But it is limited to this. The control power of the south is not as good as that of the north. The best way is for me to go to the south in person. Firstly, it will solve the problem of collecting grain and grass from the north. Secondly, it will stabilize our Lao Zhu Home’s Dominance in the South.”
Zhu Di smiled bitterly and said: "The more you say that, the more scared I am. If you really just go to the south to have fun and have fun, I will let you come. You are busy with state affairs all day long and forget yourself. It's not too bad to do this occasionally." It’s also good to indulge too much to please your body and mind.”
"But if you want to do serious business or big things, I really don't want to do it."
He understands Zhu Gaojie very well.
This son was exactly like Emperor Taizu Gao. He was very oppressive towards others and even more oppressive towards himself.
He said he was going to go to the entertainment and debauchery of the south of the Yangtze River, but when he actually got to the south, he didn't know what kind of bloodshed he would cause.
The credit was due to the country, but the fault was himself. Everything he did was for the Ming Dynasty, but he always put himself in the most dangerous situation. This made Zhu Di unbearable.
This kid really doesn't regard his own life as important.
Zhu Gaojie just smiled slightly and said: "Father, don't worry, my son will come back safely."
Zhu Di knew that he could not stop the other party, so he shook his head and sighed in a low voice: "As long as you can come back safely, everything will be fine."
…
[Do you want to continue simulating Zhu Qiqin’s life? 】
"yes."
After Zhu Gaojie left, Zhu Di was a little upset, so he simply continued to simulate.
The last time he saw it, half of it was broken. He only knew that Zhu Gaojie's grandson had become the general of Tiance. The country had no heir, and its foundation was unstable. He didn't know what would happen next.
Is it possible that Emperor Taichang Zhu Zhanyi is really old and confused and wants to lose his security in the late festival?
This doesn't make sense. King Qi's lineage has been proud for more than two hundred years, but it has languished since he became the royal family. Could it be that the country is too powerful and cannot take care of it?
[Since you became General Tiance, the whole country has been suspicious.]
[You are ready to become enemies with your two brothers. Even if you risk everything, you must protect the Liaodong that the eldest princess left for you. 】
[However, Emperor Taichang did not give you this opportunity. He directly sent an imperial edict ordering you to go to the west. 】
[The western part of the Ming Dynasty, which was formerly known as the West, is now also called "Europe". 】
[You are a little confused and can’t understand the confusing behavior of Emperor Taichang. Not only you, but everyone can’t understand it. 】
[First, I made you the general of Tiance, which shows that the emperor intends to pass the throne to you. But if he really wants to pass the throne to you, then you should be transferred to the capital so that you can become familiar with state affairs. After he suddenly passes away, you can
Inherit the throne immediately.]
【Beijing is the core of the world.】
[But now the emperor has asked you to go to the west. It is said to be a transfer, but it feels more like a dispatch. Going to the west and staying away from the political core of the Ming Dynasty is undoubtedly a kind of rejection. No one understands why Emperor Taichang did what he did.
Such inconsistent behavior.]
[Could it be that Emperor Taichang regretted it after appointing General Tiance?]
[I’m afraid this is not a serious illness!]
[Officials in the capital shouted outside the Fengtian Hall: The great achievements of the ancestors for forty years have been destroyed in one day!]
[I don’t know what will happen next for this official, but I think it won’t be too good.]
[Emperor Taichang's current attitude toward his ministers is very perfunctory: polite, enthusiastic, and clueless when asked. I am grateful, thank you, but sorry. I understand, I understand, but there is really nothing I can do.]
[You are not willing to leave Liaodong. You want to protect this high-walled city left to you by the eldest princess. However, you cannot disobey Emperor Taichang's imperial edict. You can only sigh and lead the team of Tiance Mansion far away.
Go west.]
Zhu Di was confused. Why did this look more and more like... Tang Xuanzong Li Longji?
This is so mysterious!
He was extremely wise in the first half of his life, but in his later years he went crazy.
Who can't you learn from? How about learning from Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty?
Ming Xuanzong?
[You have been appointed as the Governor of the West, in charge of the military and administration of the West. No one has held the position of Governor of the West before you. Power in the vast West cannot be concentrated in one person. Most of the Western provinces are divided into four divisions. Each province is divided into four divisions.
It is also divided into eight major officials to manage government affairs, military, criminal law, personnel, culture, economy, integrity, and supervision. A province needs to have eight major officials, not to mention that there is only one governor in the entire west.]
[You originally wanted to set up your governor's palace in Paris, the provincial capital of France, but this was rejected by Emperor Taichang. Emperor Taichang ordered you to set up your governor's palace in Berlin, the provincial capital of Prussia.]
[If you are thinking about Berlin, just go to Berlin. Berlin is closer to Liaodong, so you might as well settle in Berlin.]
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! [In Berlin Mansion, you merged the Governor's Mansion with your own Tiance Mansion, distributed your team to the western provinces, and served as the eight top officials in each province.
You are conducting remotely from Berlin.]
[When you were still familiar with the west, the Qintian Supervisor of the capital decided to name the world "Earth" after deliberation. The word "Earth" originated from a missionary in the Roman Province and came from "The Complete Map of Kunyu and Ten Thousand Kingdoms".]
[But the cabinet elders felt it was inappropriate, and they suggested that the earth be renamed "Bright Sphere"]
[Although everyone now knows that the world is actually round and everyone lives on a ball, even if it is a ball, it must be the ball of the Ming Dynasty. Under the sun, all territories are the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and all people
We are all smart people, so this ball should also be a bright ball.】
[After hearing this, Emperor Taichang thought it was very good, so he followed the opinions of the elders and happily named the world "Ming Sphere".]
[Seeing that His Majesty the Emperor listened to the advice, the elders continued to petition, asking Emperor Taichang to appoint the eldest prince, King Yu, as the crown prince. Some elders felt it was inappropriate and suggested that Prince Heng be made the crown prince. 】
[The former Ge Lao thought that the title of King Yu could tell that the eldest prince had the appearance of the Great Yu, which was very auspicious. However, the later Ge Lao who proposed to establish King Heng as the crown prince rebutted that King Yu was the Great Yu, so King Heng
Doesn’t he have the appearance of an ancestor? Although he only occupies a single word in Hengjing, he has half of the ancestors, and the second prince is enough to conquer the world...Ah no, it’s Zhenmingqiu.】
[Faced with the controversy among the cabinet ministers, Emperor Taichang dismissed all the cabinet ministers who had reported to King Yu and King Heng to establish him as prince.]
[Only one cabinet minister who proposed the establishment of a prince has not been dismissed.]
[This person is Yu Yunzhong, the successor of Hengjing’s important minister Yu Qian.]
[Yu Qian's son, Yu Mian, had six daughters but no children, so he adopted a son from the clan as his adopted son. Yu Yunzhong once served as the commander of Shanhaiguan, and was later promoted to Minister of the Ministry of War and to the Cabinet.]
[He is the only cabinet minister who petitioned to appoint King Zhu Qiqin of Liao as the crown prince, and the only cabinet minister who petitioned to establish the crown prince but was not dismissed.]
[Although he was not beaten to the end, Yu Yunzhong was still demoted. He was relieved of his positions as cabinet scholar and war minister, and was sent to the Prussian province to serve as the left-hand chief envoy. The left-hand chief envoy was one of the eight top officials in the Prussian province.
The first.]
[Anyone with a discerning eye can see that it looks like a relegation, but in fact it is a protection. In the capital, except for the Yu Wang Party and the Heng Wang Party, there is no such faction as the Liao King at all. Yu Yunzhong is seeking death by siding with you, or being alone.
I will either become a lonely soul.]
[And Emperor Taichang sent him to Prussia, which is your territory. At least he can keep Yu Yunzhong safe and sound.]
[In the face of the emperor's kindness, Yu Yunzhong not only did not feel grateful, but instead wrote an article with a wave of his hand. The article was on the surface to praise the emperor's wisdom, but in fact it was hidden in mystery and the writing was spicy. It was satirizing Emperor Taichang's fatuousness in his later years.
Employing people.】
[Emperor Taichang also responded to an article written by Yu Yunzhong. The words and sentences were exactly the same. On the surface, he lamented that Yunzhong was really a loyal minister, but in fact, he was ridiculing that the other party was useless except for his pen. 】
[Yu Yunzhong laughed and left Beijing, got up and headed to Berlin Palace.]
[You greeted the other party at Berlin Mansion, brought him under the command of Tiance Mansion, and inspected him for a period of time.]
[You have discovered that Yu Yunzhong is really capable. He is not like his father who only knows how to write articles. Yu Yunzhong once served as Minister of the Ministry of War, but what is surprising is that this man does not know how to use the army.
He understands politics and logistics, and can manage hundreds of thousands or even millions of troops in an orderly manner, but he only does not know how to form formations for combat.]
【But this is harmless.】
[Although Yu Yunzhong doesn’t know how to lead troops, you do.]
[You have followed the eldest princess for many years. After the death of Emperor Zuwu, the eldest princess is the only one in the country who knows how to use the military best. And the eldest princess has given everything to you, her adopted son. You grew up in the military camp and inherited your adoptive mother.
The ability to gallop on the battlefield.]
[But you find it boring. For you, this is too easy.]
[You have made the western region prosperous, but it means nothing to you. It is too easy. In the western region, you can’t even find a decent opponent, which makes you feel a sense of absurdity.
The sense of emptiness.]
[King Yu and King Heng, in your eyes, they are just a joke. If you really intend to be enemies with these two brothers, they may not even survive a month. 】
[You suddenly have a bold idea: become a competitor with your father. 】
[Looking around the world, apart from Emperor Taichang, you can’t find a decent opponent!]
【Simulation ends.】
Zhu Di was so angry that he turned over the table on the spot!
That’s it again!
Grass mud horse!
As soon as the key plot is reached, I will break the chapter and use it as a simulator!
What’s the follow-up, I ask you what’s the follow-up?!
What plans does Emperor Taichang have in the future? Is Emperor Taichang uncertain about his old age or is he far-sighted?
What methods did King Zhu Zhanqi of Liao have to deal with the situation in the Ming Dynasty in the west?
Grass!
…
Zhu Gaojie rode on the magnificent imperial boat and admired the scenery on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.
This royal boat was used by the emperor, but Zhu Di lent it to him for this southern tour. Firstly, the royal boat was huge, and with the fleet following it, it could carry tens of thousands of sergeants. Secondly, it served as a card for Zhu Gaojie.
, come and tell the world that this is the successor he chose, please be respectful to me.
Although the old man was not willing to let Zhu Gaojie patrol south, he carefully escorted him behind the scenes.
"Going south along the canal, according to your plan, Prince Edward, we will stop at... Yangzhou."
Zhang Muzhi reminded him with a small notebook in his hand that he was now Zhu Gaojie's personal secretary.
There are many talented people around Zhu Gaojie, but the only two brothers who can serve as his secretaries are Yang Rong and Su Wensu Wu, and Lu Chaoyang can only count half of them. Although Zhang Muzhi is a martial artist, he is elegant and capable in his conversation and careful in his work.
Not flashy, but very sensible.
Zhu Gaojie asked: "Do you know why we want to go to Yangzhou?"
Zhang Muzhi thought for a moment and said: "Yangzhou is located at the intersection of South Zhili, the Yangtze River, and the Grand Canal. It faces Zhenjiang across the river. It relies on Nanjing and has rich culture?"
Zhu Gaojie shook his head: "What you said is a geographical understanding and has nothing to do with the Southern Tour. I went to Yangzhou because Yangzhou is rich."
"Why am I on a southern tour?"
"Make money, make money, make fucking money."
"Yangzhou is located in a strategic location. It is quite prosperous and has prosperous commerce. The Yongle Dynasty had many preferential policies for it, and it is one of the places most lacking in money and food."
"There is no food and grass for the army to go on an expedition. The Yongle Dynasty has maintained Yangzhou for so many years, so it must make some contribution to let the officials and nobles of Yangzhou have a good start."
He raised his hand and ordered, "Write a handwritten letter to the magistrate of Yangzhou in Gu's name and ask him to inspect the granary and bank in the next few days and visit the chamber of commerce and clans in Yangzhou on behalf of Gu."
"We need to remind them not to act like there will be no fish until the water is clear, and let the bad atmosphere of the officialdom blow in. They may not accept it, but they must not not send it."
Zhang Muzhi sweated profusely when he heard this: "Prince, isn't it good for us to do this?"
"What's wrong? You, the dignified Jin Yiwei, have seen a lot of darkness in commanding us. These tricks are just the simplest principles. Can you not understand?"
Zhu Gaojie said patiently, "Think about it for yourself, Yangzhou is close to Nanjing, and it is one of the beneficiaries of the North-South two-capital system. If Yangzhou is not a real one, what will other places think?"
