My Daming New Empire

In the second year of Song Kaixi, Qutb Aibak, the governor of Delhi who was ruled by the Gur dynasty of Afghanistan, established himself as the sultan of India and made Delhi his capital, marking the beginning of the Delhi Sultanate's rule of India.

The Sayyid dynasty is the fourth dynasty of the Delhi Sultanate. It was founded in Yongle 12 years ago. The founder was Hazel Khan, the former governor of Punjab.Because the family claims to be descendants of the Prophet Muhammad, it is called the Sayyid dynasty.

Hazel Khan was once the governor of Multan, Lahore and other places appointed by Timur, a Turkic from Chagatai. After Timur's death, he gradually became powerful and became king the year before last.

This dynasty mainly believes in the Green religion, and is incompatible with the local Hindu and Buddhist sects in India, and has always been suppressed by force.

Hou Xian is a Tibetan and believes in Buddhism, so he has no good impression of this country.Hearing Zhu Zhanji ask about the local situation, he actually said a lot of bad things about the Said Dynasty, and wanted to arouse Zhu Zhanji's conquest.

When he set off on this trip, Zhu Zhanji was just about to exterminate the pirates. When he came back, Zhu Zhanji had already occupied the palace of Dongying and made Dongying surrender at the feet of Daming.

The development of the Daming Musket has made the war no longer as stalemate as before, but has become a one-sided situation.He really wanted Ming to directly occupy the South Asian continent, because under Ming's rule, Buddhism would not be oppressed by Hindu sects and Green Sects like it is now.

Today, Buddhists can no longer survive in the place of origin, and can only move to the east and enter those remote and remote places.

What he didn't know was that if Zhu Zhanji didn't get involved, Buddhism would indeed have been expelled from India and never went back.Hundreds of years later, there are almost no Buddhists in India, but it has been passed down in Bago, Nanzhang, Siam, Chenla and other places.

He didn't know, because of Buddhism's ignorance of the people, all countries that believe in Buddhism and take Buddhism as the state religion, although there is plenty of food, are all poor and have no oil or water.

There is only one Siam, and it is better to rely on sex, love and tourism.

Zhu Zhanji is really interested in India, because the Hindu teachings of this country divide people into different classes. This rigid political system is most conducive to rule and management.

Moreover, this is also the most fertile area in the world, with a vast land area, fertile land, and rich products.

If the Indian continent is turned into a colony, or even a country, then Ming's radiation capacity will increase by more than one-third compared to now.

It is easy to conquer, easy to manage, rich in resources, and fertile land. The only disadvantage is that there are too many people.

Compared with Australia and North and South America, which were waiting for Ming to occupy, although this place is close, the temptation seems to be not so great.

However, Zhu Zhanji decided to leave it to Zhu Di to make a decision on this matter. If he wanted to attack Timur, he would definitely come back to the South Asian continent and see his decision then.

If he wants to turn India into a colony, he can send a prince surnamed Zhu, or even two to manage it.If he wants the Indian mainland to become the land of Ming Dynasty, Zhu Zhanji will not object.

Anyway, for Zhu Zhanji now, Australia is more important to let the population of Daming increase rapidly, and then occupy North and South America.

Zhu Zhanji finally ordered him to say: "When you go back, write a book describing the situation in Nanyang Continent in detail, and submit it to the emperor's grandfather. I think he will reward you..."

Hou Xian's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Could it be that His Majesty intends to take action against the Said dynasty?"

Zhu Zhanji said with a smile: "A small Sayyid dynasty is not worthy of the grandfather's temptation. What he really wants to deal with is the Timur country."

Hou Xian was overjoyed and said: "Write more reminders from Your Highness. After the ministers go back, they will describe today's words in detail in a book and submit them to His Majesty."

Before leaving, Zhu Zhanji gave him a copy of "Yingya Shenglan". "Go back and read this book more, and write policy theory according to this model."

Hou Xian laughed and said: "The ministers have already bought this book, and Ma Zongdao is familiar with the ministers."

Zhu Zhanji smiled. Ma Huan was the translator of Zheng He's fleet, and Hou Xian was Zheng He's deputy. They should have known each other.

This "Yingya Shenglan" was written by Ma Huan under Zhu Zhanji's instructions.The book consists of [-] chapters, which describe the places visited by Zheng He's fleet, such as Champa, Java, Old Port, Siam, Managa, Yalu, Sumatra, That Orphan, Ledai, Nambori, Ceylon, and Xiaoge. The territory, roads, customs, products and national history of [-] countries including Lan, Azhi, Guri, Liushan, Zufaer, Adan, Banggala, and Horumos are outlined.

Each country has an article, and because the orphan is very young, it is attached to Sumatra.

This book can be said to be the most complete and detailed introduction to the countries in Southeast Asia, and it has a very significant effect on Ming people's understanding of the outside world.

Zhu Zhanji himself likes this book very much. During this time, when he is free, he likes to read it for a while to deepen his impression.

But it is a pity that there is no introduction here of Luzon and Sulu, which are the closest to Ming Dynasty, because these two countries are closely related to Ming Dynasty and can be regarded as the territory of Ming Dynasty.

In the third year of Yongle, Zheng He sailed to the west for the first time and commanded a huge fleet to Luzon. According to the edict of Emperor Yongle, Xu Chailao, the leader of overseas Chinese in Jinjiang, was appointed as the governor of Luzon.

It has been 12 years since Xu Chai Lao has dominated the political, economic, military, and cultural power of the region.

During this period, Xu Chai Lao spared no effort to promote the culture of the Chinese nation and practice the rule of Confucianism, courtesy and benevolence.And spread the advanced technology of agriculture, fishery, industry and commerce in southern Fujian, and greatly promote the shipbuilding, textile, pottery, and tea planting industries, making outstanding contributions to Luzon's social stability, economic and trade development, and cultural prosperity.

Although Luzon is full of miasma, the north of Manila in later generations is a vast plain area, which is developing very rapidly today.

The three sultans of the Sulu Kingdom were so envious of Luzon's economic development that they wrote letters many times, hoping to change from a vassal of the Ming Dynasty to a citizen of the Ming Dynasty.

However, this was opposed by many ministers, because for these Confucian ministers, a small country that refuses to be enlightened and believes in Green Religion is not worth having.

But no matter what, the Philippines in later generations is now the place with the closest relationship with Ming Dynasty.Quanzhou, Fujian and other places, because of the large population and limited land, many people go to Luzon every year to discuss life.

But in the original history, because the capital was moved to Beiping, Ming almost gave up on the south. After Jiaozhicheng announced the abolition of the political envoy, the countries in Southeast Asia realized the weakness of Ming, and gradually ignored it, and did not recognize it as a vassal state of Ming.

The last time Zheng He sailed to the West, the original Zhu Zhanji realized the mistake of giving up Cochin and wanted to make up for it.

But there is only the fleet, no action, and no desired effect.

Especially after the death of Zheng He, the fleet no longer cruised.After the Old Port Consolation Department was invaded by Sumatra, Ming did not take any punitive actions. From then on, the Nanyang countries and Ming only had nominal ownership.

If it hadn't been for moving the capital or abandoning Jiaozhi, not only the Southeast Asian countries, but also the Indian countries of later generations, the east coast of Africa, and Tianfang Kingdom (later Saudi Arabia) would still consider themselves vassal states of Ming Dynasty.

Although Zhu Zhanji didn't know much about these histories, he had already made up his mind when he saw that all nations were coming to court. Daming would never give up on these places.

Ming Dynasty is not only the empire of the Han people, but also the kingdom of heaven for all people.

After Hou Xian left, Zhu Zhanji also came to the yard and stretched himself.It is now the beginning of September, and the weather is neither hot nor cold, but very comfortable.

Li Liang said softly behind him: "Your Highness, Ma Liangyuan's birthday is today, and Ma Zhide and his son have come to the other courtyard to celebrate Ma Liangyuan's birthday. Do you want to go there?"

Zhu Zhanji was overjoyed, nodded and said, "Ma Di is here! Guzheng is looking for him, let their father and son come to see him."

Zhu Zhanji has many wives and concubines, and there are people celebrating birthdays every three days.Each of them has a monthly bill ranging from 20 taels to 50 taels. Zhu Zhanji covers everything for basic necessities, food, housing, and transportation, including music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and there is nothing to spend money on.

Today's servants and maids are not of high status, and they don't even need a reward.Nowadays, the purchasing power of silver is very strong, so they are all little rich women.

This is not a big deal, every three festivals and one birthday is a time when they can receive gifts in a legitimate way.

The local officials in my hometown will give gifts every Spring Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, and my birthday.In addition, there are rewards from the palace, which are more than silver.

Thanks for the wing-wing, the super cute fur ball, the bamboo stick, I spit on you, the lights see people, and the rewards for running with the pigs, thank you for your support

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

This is Ma Xin's fourteenth birthday, and Zhu Zhanji has already prepared a birthday gift for her as usual.In this regard, you must follow the rules, and you cannot give gifts randomly based on your own likes and dislikes.

Otherwise, with so many wives and concubines, he would give more expensive gifts if he is in a good mood today, and cheaper gifts if he is in a bad mood tomorrow.

If you follow your own temper, good things will only turn into bad things.

Although Xingqing Palace is only Zhu Zhanji's small world, it is located at the top of the pyramid, and the heights are extremely cold.But the more you want to be stable, the more rules you can't break.

Although Ma Xin is young, she is a good girl.Apart from a concubine grandson and two concubines above her, only the four daughters of Fenghua Xueyue and another Chen Liangyuan are on the same level as her, and everyone else is lower than her.

In addition, her father and brother are valued by Zhu Zhanji, so in the harem, no one dared to bully her.
