Chongzhen and I became partners

Chapter 676 Franchising Overseas (Add more monthly tickets)

Afterwards, Emperor Chongzhen turned back to the front hall.

At this time, Sun Chuanting had finished reading the memorial, and was very surprised. When he saw Emperor Chongzhen, he immediately played excitedly: "Your Majesty, I don't know if there is an earth dragon in Liaodong?"

Today's emperor can actually make Dilong stand up according to the order, so it will not be too easy to fight in the future.An imperial decree has passed, and where there are earth dragons, let them turn over, how simple!
Although this kind of thing is really unbelievable, it has indeed happened, and the victory report cannot be written indiscriminately, after all, there are so many people on the battlefield!
So Sun Chuanting is in for a pleasant surprise.

Upon hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen immediately understood that Sun Chuanting, who dared to love, wanted to turn himself over during the war in Liaodong!

Thanks to Liu Weichao's reminder, you can't pretend in this regard, otherwise, you will probably be slapped in the face!
You said that there are no earth dragons in Liaodong, what if an earth dragon turns around and appears?

You said that there are earth dragons in Liaodong, right? Sun Chuanting insisted on ordering him, what if the earth dragons don’t stand up?
Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen hurriedly said: "Emperor Taizu calculated Lu Song Dilong's turning over. He gave the order to Dilong, and Dilong would be able to turn over. How could I do it!"

"..." Sun Chuanting couldn't help being very disappointed when he heard this, otherwise, it would be easier for Ming to fight in the future!

When Wang Chengen heard it, he immediately said: "This must be because the Long Live Lord has his heart attached to the army of Lu Song, so he begged the Emperor Taizu to reveal the secret!"

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen squinted at him and said, "The heavenly secret must not be leaked, and this matter must not be publicized. Can my companion understand?"

Wang Chengen was taken aback for a moment when he heard this, and looked at Emperor Chongzhen's face, and immediately came back to his senses, and quickly replied: "Your servant understands, my servant understands!"

As expected of Emperor Chongzhen's number one confidant, he immediately realized that this matter cannot be publicized with great fanfare, but it can be said in private.

At this moment of their conversation, Sun Chuanting regretted it, and put aside the influence of the power of gods and ghosts, and considered the influence of the Luzon war.

Just listen to him playing to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, I believe that the great victory of the Luzon Expeditionary Army in Luzon will definitely shake the countries of Nanyang. No matter what power it is, including the Dutch, it will be shocked. The Battle of Luzon , It has been proved that as long as Ming is willing, the army will go on an expedition to Nanyang, and no country or the western barbarians such as the Netherlands will be able to withstand the wrath of Ming's thunder!"

After a pause, Sun Chuanting thought for a while, and then added: "Not to mention, the Emperor Taizu is considered to be a Dilong turnaround, and this matter will shake Nanyang even more!"

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen immediately said happily: "That is to say, on the Nanyang side, would the Dutch and Portuguese dare to think of going against Daming?"

Kill all the Spaniards in Luzon, and the rest of the Western Yi, that is, the Dutch and the Portuguese.Among them, the Portuguese have always been more submissive to Daming, and this must be no problem.On the Dutch side, the strongholds on the Dongfan side were easily removed by the Luzon Expeditionary Force, and if they wanted to make an enemy of Ming Dynasty again, they had to think about the fate of the Spaniards, whether it would be their fate tomorrow!
At this time, although Emperor Chongzhen was asking Sun Chuanting, he actually had an answer in his heart.

Another big difference between the Luzon war and the past is that the expedition to Luzon will not waste money and people.Luzon's food, especially minerals, can make up for the consumption of the army's expedition.In addition, it also helps Daming to move further.

No, after Sun Chuanting convened the cabinet to discuss with the six ministries and nine ministers, he sent an order to the King of Zhou, Zhu Gongyun, to have an audience.

Soon after the end of the Battle of Kaifeng, Zhu Gongyun went to Beijing by order and has stayed until now. Hearing the emperor's summons, he hurried to the palace immediately.

After seeing the ceremony, Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said to him: "I promised before that if the vassal kings from all over the country donate money to help the court put down the rebellion, I will seal him as a vassal overseas and take charge of the military and political power. Now, the court has just laid down a rich land overseas. , I intend to give it to you."

Although this matter has been mentioned before, it has never happened before.Zhu Gongyun was a little at a loss when he heard Emperor Chongzhen say this.

Surely this is not a test, right?It was the emperor himself who said he was in charge of the military and political power!

How far is it overseas?Is it rich?Could the emperor be deceiving himself?
Zhu Gongyun couldn't make a decision at all, he hesitated and didn't know how to answer for a while.

When Emperor Chongzhen saw it, he didn't take it seriously. He asked his servant to hang up the world map, and then he went over in person, and said to Zhu Gongyun, "You must have heard about the Lu Song incident, right? This is the place, and now the imperial army has taken down. "

After saying this, he pointed to the mainland island of Luzon, which is not the entirety of the Philippines in later generations, and then continued to say to Zhu Gongyun: "The food here is cooked three times a year, and there are still a lot of minerals here. I will give it to you. It’s marked. I don’t want too much, you only need to pay [-]% to the court for the minerals dug up in the future, what do you think?”

Speaking of this, before Zhu Gongyun could speak, Emperor Chongzhen continued: "This is also what Emperor Taizu meant. Otherwise, I don't even know what mines will be in these places. Do you think so?"

It is very convenient that Emperor Taizu has manifested himself, no matter what happens, he can be blamed on Emperor Taizu.

At this time, Emperor Chongzhen never thought at all that if Emperor Taizu really had a spirit in heaven, what would he think of his false decree?
After hearing this, Zhu Gongyun confirmed in surprise: "Is this what Emperor Taizu meant?"

He understood that everything about the feudal king came from Emperor Taizu.

This reassured him a little, that he could really go overseas and become a real feudal lord.

Emperor Chongzhen nodded immediately after hearing this, and said, "That's right, Qing's family of kings of Zhou, let's make preparations first, and they will all move to Lusong in half a year. The lands granted to Qing and his family of Zhou kings in the past dynasties will naturally be Take it back and hand it over to the local government, is there any problem?"

Zhou Fan Zhu's family is one of the fastest-growing and most populous families among the many Ming Dynasty vassal kings, comparable to Jin Fan.Zhou kings of all dynasties had many descendants. By the Wanli period of Ming Dynasty, the number had grown to 32897.If so many people were raised in the country, the salary alone would be an unbearable burden for the court.Now throwing all of them to Luzon not only saves a lot of expenses for the court, but also can take back the land granted to the kings of Zhou in the past, which is definitely a big profit.

Another point is that Emperor Chongzhen entrusted King Zhou to Lu Song for the first time, not only because King Zhou saw the situation clearly and generously donated money in the previous Battle of Kaifeng, but also because King Zhou had always been a member of many vassals in the Ming Dynasty. One of the better ones is the kind of scholarly family of vassal kings.Enfeoffment to Nanyang is also conducive to the spread of Ming culture.

For the King Zhou family, the arrears of the imperial salary are just literal money, which is almost the same as if there is no money.In the territory of Ming Dynasty, high-level clans, such as vassal kings, are under the supervision of local officials, and even going out of the city to go to the grave requires the approval of the local officials, which is very unfree; No income, just like a beggar.

If they go to Luzon, it will be a place where they can truly make their own decisions, no longer bound by the laws of the court, and become the real masters themselves, which is definitely a good thing.

Zhu Gongyun just thought about it for a while, looked at the marked minerals on Luzon Island, and quickly replied: "The humble minister leads the decree!"

In fact, he saw very clearly that he was not qualified to bargain with the emperor.Not to mention, now that he is the first to go overseas, it must mean that there is a lot of money, just look at the minerals.If you pick and choose and insist on bargaining with the emperor, if you offend the emperor, you may be given a worse place, and there is no place to cry!
Because, this is not only the meaning of the emperor, but also the meaning of the emperor Taizu!
Regarding the specific matters concerning King Zhou's vassalage to Luzon Island, Emperor Chongzhen did not personally intervene. Naturally, his courtiers came forward to discuss with King Zhou.After everything has been discussed, report to him.

After the news spread, it immediately aroused discussions from the ruling and opposition parties.

After all, this vassal king is a vassal overseas, which has never happened since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and of course it is a new thing.

Even the Dutch who are still in the capital know about the excitement of this discussion.They were also very shocked: the Spaniards were finished, they were all killed by the people of the Ming Dynasty, and that territory was sealed to the vassal king of the Ming Kingdom!

Of course they immediately thought of it, what about Batavia, what will happen to Batavia?If he still tries to fight against Ming Dynasty, will he be wiped out by the expeditionary army sent by Ming Dynasty in the end, and then another vassal king will be sealed in the past?
They have heard that there are many vassal kings in the Ming Dynasty.According to the news heard, this king of Zhou was the first feudal king to be confiscated, and certainly not the last feudal king to be confiscated.Doesn't that mean that many overseas places are more dangerous?

The huge Ming Dynasty is an empire equivalent to the entire European countries combined, and it is far richer than Europe. It has a huge population. Such a country has to go out to grab territory, at least in the vicinity of the Ming Empire. Who can grab it? Pass?
The Dutch were shocked by this.

At this time, there was a decree to repatriate these Dutch people to Batavia to inquire about the situation in order for the Netherlands to become a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty.If he continues to be an enemy of Da Ming, then Da Ming is ready to send a large army to crusade.

As for how they go back, this is quite simple, rent a large lucky boat in Tianjin Port, and they can go back to Batavia.I don't have any money now, so I can pay on delivery.Including the cost of staying in the capital for so many days, if it is not given, the imperial court will send troops to collect it.

Kuiyi and the others did not dare to be negligent, and hurriedly set off for Tianjin. Under the arrangement of the Ming Dynasty government, they rented a sea-going ship, and when they were about to leave the port, they were suddenly shocked.
