my brother-in-law is the prince

Chapter 594 Attack
In fact, after Zhu Di issued his will, the officials standing here already understood what was going on.

Isn't it obvious that several sons of His Royal Highness have come to supervise the matter of rebellion?

Then think of Zhang Anshi's recommendation of Zheng Chenren and others.

What a nice guy...

This is not helping the Japanese, it is clearly pushing the Ashikaga Yoshikon into the pit of fire.

People have already made up their minds!

It's ridiculous that people in the world don't know about it, and they thought Zhang Anshi was trying to trick the Japanese.

Now that I think about it carefully, this matter from beginning to end, in the final analysis, is still a problem of everyone's perception.

People like Zheng Chen are only good at summing up experience and lessons, but how can things in the world be summed up only by relying on some textual research and research on paper?
Everything is full of hardships, there are countless variables, and the blood and sweat of the real doers, is it just the people in the study, which can be summed up in a few empty words?
A person like Zheng Chen appears to be a great scholar of new learning, but his essence is actually no different from the great Confucianism back then.

It is nothing more than a blind belief that as long as the lessons and experience are summed up, some dogmas can be come up with, which can become a universally applicable principle.

In recent years, because of the success of the New Deal, many great Confucians have turned to study the New Learning. Their voices are louder, and they are indeed better at explaining the truth than others. Because of this, they are also decent. On the one hand, it is impossible for the people of the New Deal to compete for words and voices in practice, and on the other hand, they may not be able to speak more rationally than people like Zheng Chen.

As a result, people like Zheng Chen seem to have become the mainstream all of a sudden and achieved the New Deal, but the countless disgraceful executors all over the states and counties seem to have nothing to do with the New Deal.

But to a certain extent, today has taught many people a lot of lessons and made people think carefully, especially Xie Jin, who couldn't help but feel his heart tighten, but his mind was thinking about Java.

Immediately, Zhu Di looked at Cai Min again and said: "I have fulfilled your request, and I will soon enter Fusang to take the place of the Japanese king to counter the rebellion and rescue all living beings. This time you will also go with the army and lead the way on your behalf. How about it?"

Cai Min's whole body was still in a state of distress, but his heart was calmed down a little, and he felt much at ease. He didn't dare to refuse immediately, and sincerely kowtowed: "The student is willing to go."

Zhu Di nodded, glanced at the crowd, and said: "If you have nothing else to play, let's all leave, the crown prince and Zhang Qing will stay."

All the ministers retreated with a heavy heart.

When there were only the three of them left here, Zhu Di showed a smile in his eyes, looked at Zhang Anshi and said, "Well, Zhang Anshi, you are so bold that you recommended so many people to the King of Japan, but made them suffer It’s gone. It’s still unknown whether these people are alive or dead. If they die, someone from the spring will know and will hate you.”

Zhang Anshi laughed dryly and said, "Your Majesty, don't I have nothing to do? There are always priorities, and their lives matter, but when I think about those nephews of my minister... I will stop thinking about it. If there is any retribution, it will be retribution to the minister."

See Zhu Di showing appreciation.

Zhang Anshi continued: "Furthermore, in the past few years, I don't know what kind of atmosphere has arisen. People have been studying the new learning, hoping to sum up some of the gains and losses of the previous New Deal, so that the new learning can be implemented once and for all. The constitution governing the world. I think this is an extremely dangerous thing, but I don’t know that the situation in the world is changing at any time. Just like Confucianism, placed 2000 years ago, it advocated unity, monarchs and ministers, and benevolence. Isn’t it the most reasonable? It’s just that it’s already unrealistic now.”

After a pause, he went on to say: "For the affairs of the world, we must never use some superficial experience summed up by scholars to think that they have never changed. It needs to be adjusted to the current situation, local conditions, and people's conditions. Through today's world situation, To make relatively favorable judgments and stick to incompleteness, in the end, it will only make the scholars of new learning become corrupt scholars of the day."

Speaking of this, he sighed lightly and said: "But these scholars are all very loud and eloquent. I can't say what I say, and I want to suppress it. But after all, what they study is new learning. Promotion is not without some benefits. So I had to grit my teeth, tearfully kill Ma Su, and borrow their heads for use, so as to teach future generations a long lesson. No matter how beautiful the world is, no matter how perfect it is, After all... you can't tell the bloody truth."

Zhu Di: "..."

Zhu Di nodded subconsciously, but he also agreed with Zhang Anshi's words from the bottom of his heart.After thinking about it for a while, I felt that Zhang Anshi's move was thought-provoking. I'm afraid many people can understand the truth from it.

Seeing that Zhu Di was thinking, Zhang Anshi paused for a moment, and then explained to himself: "Besides, although I expected that the New Deal of the Japanese would fail, I dare not be [-]% sure. Ability to turn the tide, do they really have such ability?"

"Now, in today's situation, although the ministers have certain responsibilities, don't Zheng Chen and the others have a little bit of responsibility? As long as they have a little bit of ability, as long as they are less boastful and less blindly obedient, no matter what, they will not down to where it is today.”

Zhu Di smiled and said: "Okay, okay, I know you have good intentions too, your heart is good, it's just that people like Zheng Chen are not capable enough."

Zhang Anshi said without blushing, "Your Majesty knows me."

Zhu Di then smiled again, changed the topic, and said, "It's just that North Korea... but I don't know what's wrong?"

Zhang Anshi raised his eyes slightly, and said confidently: "Your Majesty, in my opinion, it will be soon. At least now, there are dry firewood and fire everywhere. Even if there is no chaos, the king of Joseon is afraid to be frightened, and he is afraid of repeating the same mistakes. It should be at these times On this day, there will be envoys from North Korea to ask the imperial court to send some troops and horses in case of accidents."

Zhu Di's eyes lit up, then he squinted his eyes, nodded and said, "Should it be enough to entrust four or five princes in these two countries?"

Zhang Anshi said: "It should be enough. For example, the country of Wa can be divided into four parts, and another part can be reserved for the Ashikaga family. In any case, this is also the country that Emperor Taizu Gao left without conquest. The imperial court awarded the golden seal. Furthermore, after the Heavenly Soldiers arrive in Fusang, there will always be Japanese people who can come out and sign a contract to protect the Japanese country..."

Zhu Di nodded his head and said: "For this matter, you can make a charter. North Korea will also place two grandchildren for me. In this way, I will feel relieved."

As he said that, Zhu Di's eyes overflowed with a smile, which shows the joy in his heart at this time.

Zhang Anshi said abruptly, "Your minister is here to set the rules?"

Zhu Di said slowly: "Why, do you think you have too many burdens?"

Zhang Anshi hurriedly said: "Don't dare."

Zhu Di said again: "Just work hard."

Hearing these familiar words, Zhang Anshi was a little dazed.

At this time, Zhu Di turned his attention to Zhu Gaochi and said, "You married a good wife."

Zhu Gaochi was waiting for a response, and then he heard Zhang Anshi say: "Your Majesty, this three-legged cat's ability, I have been taught by the young prince's precepts and deeds. If it wasn't for the careful teaching of the prince, how could we be where we are today."

Zhu Di only smiled, but did not refute. He sighed with some emotion: "I am old, if I used to be, I would have to scold you, a smooth-tongued guy, severely."

Zhang Anshi also laughed.

Zhu Gaochi on the side also showed a sincere smile.

Back at the palace, a charter is being drafted.

To put it bluntly, it was not difficult for the Ming Dynasty to enter Fusang, not to mention that within the Wa country, there was support from the Ashikaga family's party members. In recent years, the Navy and the Model Battalion have also advanced by leaps and bounds.

Japan is an island country. As long as the navy has an overwhelming advantage, it can attack any place at any time, and it will also be of great help to the supply of the model camp.

If it is an inland enemy country with vast land, this advantage may not be obvious. After all, the supply line is too long, and the weapon advantage of the Model Battalion may not be fully utilized because of the long supply line.

But for such a long and narrow island country, it is easy to transport as much gunpowder and shells at low cost. The continuous supply of materials and abundant supplies is really urgent. Any so-called fortress can be destroyed by bombardment. Indiscriminate frying to complete.

But how to distribute the profits is precisely the most troublesome thing for Zhang Anshi. In the Wa country alone, his four nephews have to be settled.

Here, among the adult and near-adult grandchildren, besides the grandson Zhu Zhanji, there are two who were born to his own sister, the princess, Zhang, one is the third son Zhu Zhanyong, and the other is Zhu Zhanji. One is the fifth son Zhu Zhanqian.

But because of this, Zhang Anshi would not be too biased. The other two nephews, because they were not born to his own sister, would inevitably be criticized if all the benefits were given to his own nephew.

Regarding this point, Zhang Anshi knows his sister Zhang's temperament best. If it were her, at least on the surface, she would appear fair and would not be too partial!

After all, in the future, she will be the queen, the lord of the harem, the mother of the world, and her food is too ugly, which is not appropriate after all.As her own brother, he couldn't leave her anything to say.

Therefore, for the entrustment of the kings, Zhang Anshi can be said to have broken his heart, trying his best to make a bowl of water even.

Zhang Anshi on this one had a lot of headaches because of this, but on the other, Wenyuan Pavilion had a falling out in the past two days.

Because troops are going to be dispatched, and according to His Majesty's wishes, the rebellion is to be suppressed quickly. Therefore, in the past two days, the Model Battalion has been dispatched urgently, telegrams have been sent to Songjiangkou and Huating Ports, and all the ships that the navy can use are also assembled , a large amount of supplies, relying on water and rail transportation like crazy, and moving them to sea ships.

Xie Jinren and others, with the Ministry of War, are in charge of scheduling, and they are afraid of making mistakes, so they are almost sleepless.

There are many trivial matters, if there is no plan and regulations in advance, it may slow down the overall progress.

As for this point, it is precisely the forte of the Wenyuange University Scholars.

They may not have Zhang Anshi's foresight, nor Zhang Anshi's resourcefulness, but they are far inferior to Zhang Anshi when it comes to the details of the incident, as well as picking up omissions, scheduling and coordination.

Naturally, Zhang Anshi had to be re-examined by the scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion.

Especially Hu Guang, who met Zhang Anshi when he was on duty, he smiled and said: "Your Highness, have you read the newspaper? Countless soldiers and civilians along the southeast coast say that Your Highness is a clever planner, haha... before raising your hand , and avenged blood and blood for them, I don't know how many people, praise Your Highness for planning a strategy."

Zhang Anshi didn't take this exaggeration seriously.I was thinking silently in my heart, I scolded me a few days ago, but when I turned my head, I praised me lavishly.

Zhang Anshi said with a stern face: "Nothing, what is planning, what is Mr. Hu talking about, Zhang can't understand at all! I, Zhang Anshi, recommended people like Zheng Chen for the good of the Japanese country and to promote the Japanese country. The New Deal has made the country rich and the people strong, alas, it’s just my bad luck, but my heart is good..."

"Okay, okay." Hu Guang didn't believe Zhang Anshi's words.

He winked at Zhang Anshi and said: "Your Highness wants to explain, but you can justify yourself to the people of the world. What's the use of telling this old man? Could it be that if this old man believes His Highness's nonsense, will others also believe it?"

Immediately, he suppressed his smile and said, "Your Highness, it's up to others to laugh and scold you. Since you have the measure to be criticized by others, you don't have to be so humble when others praise you. I am a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion. Although I am not a prime minister, But the prime minister's belly can hold a boat... our stomach..."

Zhang Anshi put on a look of grievance, but interrupted him with a sigh: "Hey... After all, it's because the world doesn't know my kindness from Zhang Anshi, whatever."

"The first batch of pioneers have already set sail." At this moment, Xie Jin paced towards him.

He glanced at Hu Guang and Zhang Anshi, and then said: "The telegram just received, the fleet has already set off at this hour, as the vanguard, and landed at a harbor in the Wa Kingdom, where...a wealthy family of the Wa Kingdom is entrenched , known as the Edo family, they have close ties with the Han merchants, once the navy arrives, they will have to meet the heavenly soldiers, and after landing, they will occupy this place first, deploy defenses, and then support the follow-up army."

Zhang Anshi looked up at Xie Jin, nodded his head and said, "I am relieved to have Zhu Yong and Zhang Fu here. However, I am still concerned about the safety of the Ashikaga Yoshikon..."

Just as I was talking about this, someone came in a hurry, holding a note in his hand, and when he came to the three of them, he said anxiously: "My lords, telegram, telegram...the latest telegram is from Huating Port. Telegram."

Everyone kept silent, and looked at the Sheren with burning eyes.

Sheren said: "Over at Huating Port, there are Han merchants who fled back from Japan and brought the latest news. It is said that... Ashikaga Yoshinaka was captured by rebels, and he was chopped into meat overnight, not only that. , the Ashikaga family... Up and down, 73 members of the family were also killed at the same time, and their family members were either killed or injured! The samurai are still fighting stubbornly in various places, but this rebellion is extremely ferocious... I am afraid that if the rescue of the imperial court is not timely, I am afraid that it will be more dangerous. However, there are a few big names who are still willing to serve the Ashikaga family... Now ...just waiting for the court's military horses."

After Zhang Anshi heard this, he couldn't laugh or cry.

Well, he hated himself for being a crow's mouth, how could his whole family die when he came to Ashikaga Yoshito.

Xie Jin and Hu Guangren looked at each other in blank dismay, Xie Jin immediately raised his eyebrows and asked, "Does the Ashikaga family have any side branches?"

This Sheren said: "There are indeed. The Ashikaga family is a big family of the Wa Kingdom, and there are many side branches."

Xie Jin nodded, calmed down again, pondered for a while and said: "The so-called success does not have to be my fault. The whole family of Ashikaga Yoshikyo was brutally murdered by rebellion. It can be seen how vicious these traitors are! Ashikaga Yoshinaka is Taizu Emperor Gao Imperial Japanese King, they have violated the rules of heaven by punishing my vassals of the Ming Dynasty. Immediately call back and teach the troops not to be polite to the rebels. , all beheaded and killed, although my Great Ming has benefited the world, I also have the wrath of thunder."

Hu Guang said on the other side: "After arriving in the Wa country, I still have to look for the offshoot of the Ashikaga family. If there is a whereabouts, I will report it immediately. At that time... the imperial court will inevitably give Yulu the grace."

Xie Jin pinched his beard, and couldn't help but add from the side: "You don't need to be older. Older people don't live long. I'm afraid there will be troubles. If it's a child, it's safe. Children live longer."

Sheren carefully wrote down one by one.

At this time, Hu Guang looked at Zhang Anshi: "His Royal Highness, is there anything else to add?"

Zhang Anshi scratched his head and said, "I'm full of grief and anger at this moment, but I have nothing to explain. When sending the telegram, remember to say hello to Zhu Yong and General Zhang Fu, and tell them to work hard."

Sheren said well, then hurried away again.

When the family left, Zhang Anshi sighed and said: "Oh, Ashikaga Yoshinaka is so pitiful, he was so good, why did he die? Last time he came, we still had a good talk. I didn't expect it to be so soon. There is a separation between heaven and man, hey... I feel sorry for him."

The corner of Xie Jin's mouth twitched almost inaudibly, and then he glanced at Zhang Anshi with a strange look.

Zhang Anshi continued: "I've thought about it, and now that I'm ordered by the Holy Spirit, I can't go to Fusang to collect the bones of the Ashikaga Yoshinaka in person. I can't help but feel ashamed. In any case, it's finally an acquaintance. I want to write an article for him. A eulogy, at least it can be considered as a friendship."

Hu Guangdao: "Your Highness is kind."

He is not in the mood to deal with Zhang Anshi at this time, the situation has changed, and next, there may be some regulations that need to be deleted.

But Zhang Anshi said: "Mr. Hu, your article is well written. Why don't you write this eulogy. Just treat it as a face for me. I will sign it and send it to the mansion when the time comes."

Hu Guang's face was serious, and he gave Zhang Anshi a blank look: "Your Highness, the old man is very busy."

Zhang Anshi mournfully said: "I just ask Mr. Hu to take a break from his busy schedule. Brother Ashikaga, but the whole family is dead. Doesn't Mr. Hu have any sympathy?"

Hu Guang: "..."
