I am the king of the dead

But after that?

Whether it is the Japanese pirates entrenched on Jiming Island or the Japanese pirates in Zhoushan, the king's son of Joseon refused to kneel down to pay respects, and the Manjaboyi Kingdom annexed the old Hong Kong Xuanweisi.

If Zhu Qiyu is still immersed in the big dream of the suzerain Khan, he will eventually lose the sea. How can we talk about the pinnacle of China's sea power?

Zhu Qiyu thought for a while and said: "Take this memorial and go tell him a story about Mr. Dong Guo and the wolf, Lu Dongbin and the dog, the farmer and the snake, and the story of Daming and Fanyi!"

Xing'an is a bit confused. Mr. Dongguo and the wolf can be said to be the allusion of Zixi Zhongshan wolf.

Lu Dongbin and the dog naturally don't know good people.

As for the farmer and the snake, it was a story from the Arabian Nights, and Xing'an knew it.

But where did the story of Daming and Fanyi begin?

Zhu Qiyu sat up straight and said: "During the Hongwu period, Zhancheng, Annan, Suoli, Java, Hanni, Sanfoqi, Siam Dendrobium, and Chenla were newly attached to the country during the Hongwu period, and they were unable to build ships. Emperor Taizu Gao sent They hired Ming craftsmen to help them build ships."

"During the Yongle period, Mangawai Mansion, Sumatra Official Factory, Chadi Port Branch Office, and Guli Official Factory were built to help Yidi people build ships and pay tribute to develop people's livelihood."

"To show the prestige of China, the way is to use the law of kingship."

"Did Ming treat them badly? Promoting etiquette, promoting enlightenment, setting court guidelines, helping them sort out domestic and foreign affairs, and helping them change from savages to people."

"How did they repay Daming?"

"Human face and animal heart!"

"This story must be told! You go to the Hanlin Academy to tell it, and let the Hanlin of the Imperial Academy explain to me, this way of confinement, the way of cultivating literature and morality after obeying and pardoning, what exactly have you got?"

"In exchange for a group of white-eyed wolves who can't get enough to eat!!"

It was only then that Xing'an knew that under the tribute system, there was still the merit of teaching, and he knew that Daming had built so many factories overseas to help Fan Guo.

Knowing how the story was told, Xing'an bowed his head and said, "I understand, let's go to the Imperial Academy."

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said: "The emperor's uncle is me, with me, without me, and it must occupy the headlines. These stories should be placed on the second edition, so that everyone can see, this is the way since the cultivation of literature and virtue, what should I do? A law fix!"

"A bunch of fools."

Xing'an thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, the Zhoushan naval battle is imminent. Do you want to put this story of Ming and Fanyi on the headlines?"

Zhu Qiyu thought for a while and said, "What about the front page of Uncle Huang?"

"That can only be moved to the second edition." Xing'an said helplessly, after all, the Zhoushan naval battle was a major event.

Zhu Qiyu thought for a while and said: "Then move to the second edition."

The headlines of Zhu Zhanqian, the emperor's uncle, were eventually robbed by His Majesty's story.

Xing'an took orders and went to the Hanlin Academy. Under the summoning of Wu Jing, who was in charge of the academy, Xing'an told the story told by His Majesty.

Mr. Dong Guo and the Wolf, Lu Dongbin and the Dog, the Farmer and the Snake, and Daming and Fanyi.

Xing'an said to Wu Jing: "Your Majesty said, let the Wenlin Langs of the Imperial Academy combine these four stories to explain how to cultivate literature and virtue since then."

"Especially the recent Japanese envoys robbing the people's property, injuring officials of the Ming Dynasty, and disobeying the law of the Ming Dynasty."

"Explain clearly how to cultivate culture and virtue, so that these barbarians who are afraid of power but not virtuous will not bite Daming back!"

Wu Jing sighed and said, "Da Dang, how can this be explained clearly? It has already happened."

"It is clear that morality is to the essence and unity, but it is not separated from things."

Xing'an said with a smile: "Our family is only responsible for promulgating the edict, and we have no control over other matters."

"Shouldn't Lin Lang speak the truth better than us eunuchs?"

Xing'an left the Imperial Academy with his people, and then went to Huimin Pharmacy.

The Tai Hospital is divided into two. The one next to Mi Lane in the eastern suburb is the Jiejie Hospital, where no one can be seen, but on the other side is the Huimin Pharmacy, which is full of people coming and going.

Xing'an entered through the side door of Huimin Pharmacy and left after inspecting for a long time.

He is an envoy of flowers and birds, and he also met Ran Siniang before communicating with Lu Zi. His Majesty liked the soft bamboo and wicker chairs presented by the Tai Hospital very much, and expressed his high praise.

Xing'an also focused on chatting with Lu Zicai about Ran Siniang. He wanted to let Ran Siniang and His Majesty meet more often, so that the Imperial Hospital could cooperate more.

Lu Zicai expressed his full cooperation.

At this time, Ran Siniang was in the hospital, and she had gradually adapted to understand Ran Siniang in the hospital. She showed her professionalism and worked hard to learn many new medical skills.

When Xing'an left, he took a few pieces of reading glasses with him. Naturally, these reading glasses are also the latest achievement of Tai Hospital.

Reading glasses were not a rare thing in the Ming Dynasty. Marco Polo once said in his travel notes: Chinese old people always wear glasses when they read small print.

Hu Wei is getting old, and his eyes can no longer see clearly. His reading glasses are tied behind his head with silk.

When Hu Yan was at his own home, he was better, but when he arrived at the Yamen, he was a little out of character.

After all, there is a corrector in the main hall.

This presbyopic reading glasses is from the Tai Hospital, and has been comprehensively improved, such as adding a pine wood frame and fixing it on the ear, which is very convenient.

When Xing'an returned to the lecture hall, His Majesty was playing war games with Shi Heng, and the battle had reached its final moment.

Zhoushan naval battle.

His Majesty fought a great battle with the Ming army and the Zhoushan Japanese pirates, but within thirty rounds, Shi Heng was directly defeated.

The Ming army is fierce and brave, how can the Zhoushan Japanese pirates be their opponents?

Xing'an sighed, he was no longer needed, His Majesty had already learned to win by himself.

Zhu Qiyu put down the flag in his hand, and said with emotion: "After the Zhoushan naval battle, we will form a navy, but the commander of the navy has not yet been determined."

Shi Heng was taken aback for a moment, shook his head and said: "There's nothing to be sure about, then...it's really hard to be sure!"

After Shi Heng finished speaking, he immediately stopped his words, and a cold sweat broke out from his body. He was already the commander-in-chief of the Daming [-]th Regiment Battalion.

Although he marched and fought with the Siwu Regiment Battalion on weekdays, in name, whether it was Yang Jun, Sun Tong, Liu An and others, they were all his subordinates!

If he meddles in the navy affairs again, will it make His Majesty sleepless?

Shi Heng was halfway through speaking, and just pulled his mind away from the Bingpu chessboard, and immediately realized that he almost bit the bait that His Majesty randomly dropped!

Great!

Zhu Qiyu asked suspiciously: "Marquis Wuqing, is there any officer in the navy who can recommend you?"

Shi Heng said with a smile: "Chen Datong's mansion, the general immediately, and a landlubber, how can there be any recommendation from the waves? Your Majesty has a discerning eye, and naturally he has found a talent."

Zhu Qiyu nodded, picked up a thick inscribed book and said: "There are quite a few talents here, and they are all recorded in the record. This book is about the navy."

Zhu Qiyu said with a smile: "The first one is Tao Jin, the current commander of the navy, who has made great achievements in the battle of the capital."

"The second is Uncle Pingjiang Chen Yu. He is the one who formed the Yuegang Cao Cao Army in the Yuegang Xuanwei Division. He is also in Nanya now. The third is the governor Ma Yun."

Fandu commanded Ma Yun, neither the Liaodong fierce general Ma Yun who set up Liaodong at the founding of the Ming Dynasty and beat Naha like a grandson, nor the Ma Yun who engaged in subprime mortgages in later generations.

Instead, Fandu commanded Ma Yun.

Ma Yun in the orthodox years, who is he?

Chapter 400 Jinlian Road Falls

If you want to say that Ma Yun is commanded this time, then of course you have to talk about Zhu Qizhen.

In the eighth year of Zhengtong, Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen finally came back to his senses, he seemed to be fooled by San Yang!

Because his inner money is getting poorer and poorer.

Without the sea trade, his internal money can't even take care of his own expenses, let alone subsidize the hole of the court.

In fact, starting from the Yongle period, the bureaucratic system of the Ming Dynasty became larger and larger. As the times developed, the ranks of officials would inevitably become bloated.

The military expenditure of the army has also begun to increase day by day, including the expenditure of various guards, Confucian schools, and Huimin Pharmacy.

However, the Ming Dynasty's taxes did not increase significantly, and the court had begun to make ends meet, so Emperor Wen often subsidized the court with money and food from internal funds.

During the Xuande period, Xia Yuanji, an important minister of Yongle, strongly opposed the maritime trade, but Zhu Zhanji still went south to the West with all his strength. Although the scale was a little smaller, he still made a lot of money.

But in the Zhengtong period, because of the suspension of maritime trade, the court had to borrow money from internal funds all day long. Zhu Qizhen didn't realize until the eighth year of Zhengtong that maritime trade was really important.

In the eighth year of Zhengtong, Zhu Qizhen asked Nanya Longjiang Shipyard to build the Western Fleet again, but in the end it took half a year to build it, let alone the ship, and no boards were seen.

Because the person in charge of supervising the Western Fleet is Captain Zhao Hui.

Nanya did not cooperate with Zhu Qizhen's edict, but someone did.

Guo Yan, the magistrate of Fuzhou Prefecture in Fujian, asked for an order to open the sea, Zhu Qizhen agreed, and began to build and repair the shipyard on the current Yuegang Xuanweisi.

This shipyard dates back to the Yongle period. During the 15 years of Yongle's great voyage, Fujian Shipyard built a total of more than 320 ships.

Guo Yan was appointed as the chief transfer officer of the Eight Governments, and Jiao Hong, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, was in charge of supervising the orthodox voyages to the West.

It took a total of two years, mobilized more than 120 boatmen, and finally built [-] sea-going ships.

This is naturally not comparable to the Western fleet at its peak, but it is also a super fleet of twelve Fuchuan.

Ma Yun, the commander of Fandu, was appointed as the commander of Fandu in the West.

After ten years of orthodoxy, Zhu Qizhen gave an order to go south to the west to make money!

As a result, before the edict reached Fujian, there was a civil uprising in Fujian.

It was a civil uprising with only a single stroke in history, which was recorded in the epitaph and some fragments of Fuzhou Prefecture Tongzhi Guo Yan.

In that civil uprising, about a dozen blessing boats were burned, and nearly a hundred buildings, warships, battleships, warships, patrol boats, etc. were destroyed.

This was not the last time Ming tried to sail southward.

In April of the first year of Tianshun, Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen, who had just been restored, immediately prepared to go south to the West again, because the memorabilia of Zhang Feng, the Minister of the Ministry of Households during the Jingtai period, had already shown that the finances of the Ming Dynasty had reached a precarious situation.

However, the wave of opposition from the court and China was overwhelming, and Ming Yingzong was unable to implement the executive order at all.

In the end it was over.

Daming tried to go south to the Western Ocean again, and it was time for Liu Daxia to burn Zheng He's nautical charts.

This kind of game actually continued until the end of the Ming Dynasty, when Emperor Chongzhen took back the admiral and eunuch of the Yuegang Xuanwei Division, and then stopped.

Because after that, Daming was already in decline.

In the fourth year of Jingtai, where was Guo Yan, the magistrate of Fuzhou Prefecture in Fujian Province and the chief transfer officer of the Eighth Prefectures?

He was the magistrate in Sizhou Prefecture, Guizhou.

Guo Yan was thrown from Fujian to Guizhou, from supervising the construction of the Great Ming Armada, to governing the chieftains in the Hundred Thousand Mountains.

This is the consequence of supporting the emperor's voyage south in Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Qiyu mentioned the list, namely Tao Jin, Chen Yu and Ma Yun.

The emperor has already given a candidate, so Shi Heng has no worries.

He thought carefully for a long time and said: "Tao Jin is in Mizhou Shipyard, Chen Yu is in Ningbo Shipyard, Ma Yun is in Fujian Shipyard, and Yunji is in Songjiang Shipyard. Whoever does well will be a naval officer." Commander-in-Chief."

"Three years."

Shi Heng's opinion is easy to understand, just one word: "Juan".

Shi Heng's idea is based on the method of examination, and he won the true biography of the Ming emperor. He was an official in the Jingtai Dynasty, and he didn't know how to do it.

Zhu Qiyu nodded, smiled and said, "Very good."

Xing'an listened to His Majesty and Shi Heng's discussion with a smile on his face. The methods His Majesty is good at, fishing method, cricket fighting method, and examination method are not difficult to learn.

A small yellow door came in a hurry, and said with a panicked expression: "Your Majesty, Jin Shangshu was in the yamen of the household department just now, and he suffered from stomach pain again. After walking two steps, he fell on the road in the courtyard of the household department, and passed out from the pain! "

Zhu Qiyu's complexion changed suddenly, he stood up suddenly, and said angrily: "Didn't I let him cultivate at home? Why did he go to the household department to work again!"

Xiao Huangmen said in horror: "Jin Shangshu felt that he was in good health, and it would not be a problem to lie down all the time, so he went to the household department to sit for half a day, and something happened just after sitting."

This little Huangmen came a little late, and it was the first time seeing His Majesty so furious.

Zhu Qiyu flicked his sleeves, went downstairs, and said as he walked: "I know that he is ill, so I let him cultivate at home. That's good. Jin Lian is stubborn. Why don't these young people from the household department stop me?"

"Are you asking for a doctor?"

Xiao Huangmen said in a low voice: "Please, we have arrived at Dashi Yongfang Mansion."

Jin Lian was not only a civil servant, but he fought the rebellion with Ningyang Marquis Chen Mao in Fujian, and he also resisted and killed the enemy.

Zhu Qiyu breathed out and said, "Go and have a look."

When he travels on weekdays, he doesn't put on any airs of riding a jade horse, he just gets on his horse, and a group of more than ten people rushes to Dashi Yongfang.
