The empire on which the sun never sets on those magical Western barbarians will be just a false legend. ("", watch the latest update of this book) As for the future situation where the earth is full of golden-haired monkeys, it will no longer appear in our eyes.
Thinking of this, Zhu Qizhen laughed ferociously. Coupled with the howling cold wind outside the palace door, it really had the effect of an ancient Chinese horror movie, at least those who were standing outside the room.
The eunuchs and maids couldn't help being frightened, and their faces turned pale.
One of the eunuchs got bold and cautiously put his head next to the screen. He looked inside and saw Zhu Qizhen, who was not sleepy and had a wretched expression on his face, sitting cross-legged on the bed, next to him.
The dim candlelight made the outline of his face look particularly sinister and ferocious.
Seeing this scene, the eunuch who was so frightened that his hair stood on end quickly retracted his head. It seemed that the True Dragon Emperor was not someone who could be seen by anyone. The eunuch chanted Amitabha several times,
I finally calmed down my frightened mood.
His performance shocked the eunuchs and maids next to him, but no one dared to ask, for fear of upsetting Zhu Qizhen in the back room, and who knew what kind of punishment he would receive.
And Zhu Qizhen was sitting on the bed unaware, thinking about the future of his children. Zhu Qizhen had other plans for Qian Niang's child. Since he was the queen's legitimate son, no matter what, he couldn't be worse than Na.
Ren's son, well...he must prepare a large enough territory.
However, forget about Siberia. After all, there has not been any development there. It will become the resource land of the Ming Dynasty in the future. Moreover, the climate is too cold. If you want to develop there, I am afraid you will have to wait at least three more years.
Fifty years later, all that needs to be done now is to occupy and rapidly expand the territory of the Ming Dynasty, all the way to Europe, so that those Western barbarians can no longer advance to the east.
After careful calculation, Zhu Qizhen found that there seemed to be quite a lot of territory that was large enough, such as the fertile land in Asan, India, south of the Ming Dynasty, or the Luzon Island, which was full of gold and various mineral resources.
, or Australia, the largest island in the world, or perhaps the North American continent or the South American continent, are all very good choices.
However, the North American and South American continents can barely be sailed with the current level of navigation. However, this alone is not enough. What Zhu Qizhen needs is colonization. Yes, it is better than Westerners.
A colonization plan hundreds of years in advance.//《》.com《》Novel Network//

At this moment, a rough plan has been formed in the mind of Zhu Qizhen, a time traveler from the future and a shameless cheater of history. In other words, an unprecedented and huge colonial plan unprecedented in the history of the land.
"I only have three sons. It's not enough. It's too few. We are also emperors after all. The emperor of the Ming Dynasty. If I don't have more than ten children, I would be very sorry for my status as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. If I don't have more children, how can I have any?"
Reason to occupy the land?..." Zhu Qizhen twitched his fingers, and the look of obscenity on his face became even stronger. "The current population of the Ming Dynasty, including those who live in hiding, is at most more than 100 million.
This is really too small. With so many continents, how many people are needed to develop them?"
In addition to vigorously supporting the development of the population, there are still many important things to do, such as vigorously supporting the navigation industry, so that the level of maritime trade in the Ming Dynasty can surpass that of Britain and catch up with the United States? Bah! In this day and age, will those Western barbarians still do this?
Howling and wielding swords and spears in tin cans is useless beyond them. It should be far ahead of the Tang and Song Dynasties, so that on the seas of the entire world, there are Ming warships and fluttering Ming dragon flags.
In a word, if you want to play the colonial game, you must first play the Age of Discovery. You must first let the Chinese people look into the distance. You must also let your own will become the will of the Ming Empire. Only when you become a person like Zhu Di or Zhu Yuanzhang
Only when there is such a strong dictator-like emperor can all this be realized.
If you want to be that kind of person, then many of the civil and military officials in the dynasty will definitely stand against you. To put it more bluntly, these officials will become your first
A target that needs to be cleaned up or suppressed.
"It seems that in addition to the army that must be firmly in the palm of my hand, I also need a group of people, a group of scholars who will wave the flag and shout for my will and eliminate those old ideas for me." Zhu Qizhen touched his chin and couldn't help but
He muttered quietly.
As the emperor of the Ming Dynasty and the ruler of the Ming Dynasty, it is difficult to completely control the army. Although it is not easy, it is not much more difficult. At least Zhu Qizhen now controls the border towns of the Ming Dynasty and the capital.
There are nearly 600,000 troops including the military camp, which is already two-thirds of the military strength of the Ming Dynasty, and it is the most elite.
As long as Zhu Qizhen is given another two to three years, he will have the military education and ideological education that later generations have, and hard training and education methods for both. I dare not say that there are too many, at least 20 people in the Beijing Army Camp.
Wan Jing Rui was completely loyal to the Ming Empire without any compromise.
The troublesome thing is for those who are studying. After all, this era is not like the era in later generations when there were so many students as dogs, and graduate students were everywhere, and the teaching beasts roared all day long.
The scholars of this era are very respected in the eyes of the common people, and not all of these scholars are people who care about the country and the people, and the scholars of today are far from the scholars of the past.
In the early days of history, the classes of scholars, peasants, industry and commerce were clearly divided. However, with the change of dynasties in the Central Plains, the original class of scholars, peasants, industry and commerce was broken up, kneaded together, and then separated again time and time again.
But every time, such a move makes the originally clear-cut barriers between these four classes become weaker and weaker. It can even be said that today's scholars, farmers, industry and commerce have completely become an inseparable group.
Especially in the Jiangnan area, commerce and trade are the most developed, and those wealthy landowners and merchants will build schools for their children and grandchildren, and even the children and grandchildren of their own families, and find the best teachers for them, just in the hope that their families will cultivate a good teacher.
Batch scholars. If one or two people can be elected as officials, then their family can be covered with a layer of official skin. According to the practice passed down from ancient times, officials do not need to pay taxes, and
Their family, whether it is the money earned from business or the output from farming, can completely go into their own pockets, and they can also bribe their superiors as officials to strive for a higher salary.
status to obtain greater benefits for the family.
Well, I seem to have digressed again. In short, the disease must be cured from the root. Don’t be anxious. First of all, let’s start with the Imperial College.
Zhu Qizhen is quite dissatisfied with the current teaching methods of the Imperial College. Taken together, they are the so-called Six Arts of a Gentleman. However, for today's scholars, these things are almost dispensable, because the major imperial examinations
The test is not about the Six Arts of a Gentleman, but only the Four Books and Five Classics.
Since the establishment of the imperial examination system, or in other words since the Song Dynasty, if you want to take the imperial examination, in a word, you have to memorize all the Four Books and Five Classics, and you will definitely pass the exam. Therefore, in the eyes of those scholars, in addition to the Four Books and Five Classics,
Or the Four Books and the Five Classics? Could it be that the five thousand years of Chinese culture can only be read through the Four Books and the Five Classics?
This made Zhu Qizhen very unhappy. At least, he preferred the contention of a hundred schools of thought during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. In that case, it was possible to promote the Chinese nation's positivity, pursuit of truth, broad vision of the world, and strong thirst for knowledge.
Today's Imperial College does indeed need to make changes, and with the banner of Master Confucius, I, as the Emperor of Heaven, naturally have the duty to raise the banner of the Six Arts of the Gentleman high.
In later generations, morality, intelligence, physical education, art, and labor were comprehensively developed. By the Ming Dynasty, they were actually integrated into rituals, music, archery, imperial duties, calligraphy, and mathematics, and they were even more detailed and clear. The more he thought about it, the more proud he became. Zhu Qizhen simply called
The eunuchs came to grind ink for themselves, and then took the quill pen and quickly recorded their thoughts one by one. Of course, the sooner they can get these things out, the better.

The howling cold wind carried large swaths of snowflakes dancing in the sky. The last dead leaves on the old trees that had been shivering in the cold winter were also pulled out of their branches, and were helplessly swept into the cold wind, heading towards
Fly away into the distance.
But inside the Shi Mansion, Shi Heng, who was originally high-spirited and ambitious, now looked gloomy and was sitting in front of the stove with a sad look on his face, his eyes drifting away from the flickering firelight from the iron ring of the stove.
Sitting directly opposite him was Shi Biao, who was equally tall and tall, but younger and more energetic. At this moment, Shi Biao, who was regarded as his own son by Shi Heng, was sitting here. At this moment, Shi Biao was looking at him with a worried look and was deep in thought.
Uncle Shi Heng.
In the past few days, after being scolded by Zhu Qizhen, Shi Heng, who was thinking about it behind closed doors in his house, was really not having an easy life. In other words, his confidence and pride were not that easy for the big man Zhu Qizhen.
In front of Tomorrow, he suffered a terrible setback.
Thinking of Zhu Qizhen's cold face, gleaming eyes, and undisguised anger and disgust that day in Chongzhi Hall, Shi Heng still couldn't help but sweat on his clothes when he thought about it now.
.
"Uncle..." Shi Biao picked up the water heater on the stove, filled Shi Heng's tea cup with water, and carefully pushed it to Shi Heng. "Actually, His Majesty is not just targeting uncle.
you."
"How could I not know this?" Shi Heng smiled bitterly and shook his head. He picked up the cup of hot tea, took a sip and sighed: "After all, I listened to the villain's words and let him
The rich and powerful are so blinded that they do such extremely stupid things."
