Domineering Daming

Calming down Shenyang meant too much to him.He felt a sense of bewilderment, as if he had solved the Liaodong issue, his mission was completed, and everything below didn't matter, and his heart was empty, unusually empty.

Zhu Xu stood in front of the window in draped clothes, looking at the snowflakes all over the sky, his eyes were very dazed.

After Jin died, Da Ming was saved. With Da Ming's current strength, as long as he didn't make a big mistake, Li Zicheng would not be able to succeed.

Jiangshan, beauties, Wenzhi, martial arts, everything is there.

Everything is there, but the heart is empty like never before!

Standing in front of the window, Zhu Xu stared blankly at the snowflakes that came from the sky and disappeared on the ground.

"Your Majesty, are you awake?" After an unknown amount of time, there was a soft knock on the door.

Zhu Xu opened his eyes, woke up from the chaotic thoughts, took a long breath, and the whole body came to his senses, recalling the messy thoughts, he couldn't help but said to himself: "So this is what I miss the most in my heart. However, the Hou Jin has not yet been completely destroyed, the Ming Dynasty is surrounded by crises, and the internal reform is at a critical time, I still have too many things to do..."

"Your Majesty, are you awake?" There was another soft knock on the door.

Zhu Xu wrapped his clothes and realized that his legs were numb. He walked towards the door with difficulty, opened the door, and said with a smile, "I'm awake."

Outside the door was a pretty girl of fifteen or sixteen years old, who belonged to Mrs. Zu Dashou's natal family, and Zu Dashou came to take care of Zhu Xu.

The girl's pretty face is like jade, her skin is as smooth as snow, her figure is slim and slim, her big eyes are shining, and she has a sense of charm that does not match her age.

She looked at Zhu Xu, her pretty face blushed slightly, and said: "Your Majesty, the maid brought you water, you wash up first, and the maid will make cakes for you."

Zhu Xu smiled and said, "Okay."

The girl glanced at Zhu Xu again, put the water basin down decently, watched Zhu Xu wash up, then turned and left.

Not long after, Zhu Xu was fully dressed, sitting in the lobby, eating the pastries made by the girl, and then flipping through various information passed down from Shenyang Feige.

Among them, Jinyiwei recorded everything that happened in Shenyang City, including Xiong Tingbi, He Hucheng, Bao Chengxian, Meng Qiaofang and others.

When he saw "Bao Youding Twelve Strategies of the Liao Dynasty, in order to present it to the emperor", the corners of Zhu Xu's eyes twitched, and he sneered and remained silent.

The next one came from the capital, from the supervisor of ceremonies, Liu Shimin.

There are six words written on it: "Jingping", "Xingyuan" and "Wende".

It was only then that Zhu Xu remembered that he intended to change his Yuan before, and quietly ordered Liu Shimin to choose the year name, but looking at these three, he shook his head slightly, dissatisfied.

Such things as the year name are decided by court officials and court officials. Generally, the emperor cannot decide, just like the "Chongzhen" in front of him.

"What should I call it?" Zhu Xu was also thinking about it.The year name is for the world to use, and it must be included in the history books, so it must be tall.

Chapter 487 The envoy congratulates

"emperor."

Zhu Xu was thinking about it when Sun Chengzong came in from the outside.

Zhu Xu raised his head and smiled, and said, "Master Sun, have you eaten yet? If not, let's go together."

Sun Chengzong also knew that the emperor is sometimes very easy-going, and he takes some etiquette very lightly, or even doesn't care, but he didn't have time to care about these, and raised his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the envoy sent by North Korea has already departed from Phi Island yesterday. , should be able to reach Jinzhou today."

Zhu Xu just remembered that Qin Yiming was still in Seoul, looked up at Sun Chengzong, tapped his fingers on the table, and said, "What do you think about North Korea?"

Sun Chengzong was a little confused, so he thought about it for a while and said, "Your Majesty, North Korea has gone through wars and is very weak, but now that the Japanese country is closed to the sea, and Shenyang has fallen, there should be a period of time to rest and recuperate, and people's livelihood can gradually recover."

Zhu Xu tapped his fingers on the table, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "What I'm talking about is, should the Royal Political Council also enter North Korea?"

Sun Chengzong was startled, looked at Zhu Xu's expression, his heart moved violently, raised his hand and said: "Your Majesty, North Korea has always admired me, Daming, if the Academy of Arts enters North Korea, it will also be my care for North Korea, and it is very exciting to think about coming to North Korea. Gladly accepted."

Zhu Xu just smiled and said, "Well, who is here?"

Sun Chengzong said: "It's Dr. Zhengxian, Jin Zhongshan."

"It's an old friend." Zhu Xu narrowed his eyes.

Through the "Mutual Defense Treaty", Qin Yiming has basically mastered the dilapidated army of North Korea after the war. With the relationship between Ming and North Korea, North Korea will not have the slightest resistance, but will be very happy. After all, North Korea was facing post-Kim The threat from Japan, even now that the gold is gone, the weak North Korea needs Ming's protection, and most importantly, Ming has no intention of annexing North Korea.

This is proved by the fact that there are more than 200 years, especially the three major signs of Wanli!

The political system of North Korea is basically copied from the Ming Dynasty. However, with years of development, North Korea’s current court is divided into two groups. .

Zhu Xu wandered in his mind for a while, and while eating the cake, he asked, "By the way, when will Yuan Keli arrive in Jinzhou?"

Sun Chengzong is also Zhu Xu's old minister, listening to his series of questions, he instinctively sensed that the emperor was doing something in North Korea on purpose.

He thought for a while, and then said: "Yuan Keli did not go to the capital, but has already sailed northward by boat, and it is estimated that he will arrive at noon. In addition, North Korea handed over half of Jeju Island to the northern navy for use as a joint naval base."

Zhu Xu glanced at him, and said with a smile: "Well, after the war, the population of Korea declined, and there was a shortage of young adults. I promised to provide North Korea with a population of 100 million as early as the reign of Emperor Tianqi. Now it seems that it is time."

Sun Chengzong knew the emperor in front of him very well. He knew that he would not do business at a loss. He often hid several purposes in doing something. Listening to his words, he asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, do you want to annex North Korea?"

Zhu Xu ate the pastry, took a sip of tea, stood up, took a few steps forward, looked at the snowflakes that were getting bigger and bigger outside, and said, "Rape within marriage is unnecessary. What I care about is the Japanese country overseas."

Only then did Sun Chengzong wake up, his expression thoughtful.

The Ming Dynasty, or the Central Plains Dynasty, basically had no idea of ​​going to sea except for the Yuan Dynasty’s failed attempts against Japan. Whether it was Ryukyu or Japan, in the eyes of the Central Plains Dynasty, they were all barbarian lands, poor and scarce. There is no need to rule.

Sun Chengzong also thinks so.

He looked at Zhu Xu's back and said, "Your Majesty, Liaodong has been liberated, and now it is time to major in internal affairs and promote innovation to complete the established government affairs. After the previous lesson, the Wa country should be unable to invade North Korea again. I think it can be wrong for the time being." Japan uses soldiers."

Zhu Xu can roughly understand Sun Chengzong's thoughts, put his hands behind his back, and said with a smile: "I didn't plan to do it right away, let's make preparations first. The northern navy sent a part to garrison Jeju Island, and moved the family members there to appease the hearts of the soldiers. The basic facilities must also be gradually improved, and the wasteland should be reclaimed quickly..."

Sun Chengzong heard that the emperor had made a decision, so he raised his hand and said, "Observe the order."

Zhu Xu hummed, looked at the snowflakes all over the sky, and was a little lost in thought. After temporarily solving Hou Jin, the pressure on his shoulders was even greater, and there were more things to do.

Sun Chengzong also had too many things to do, so he simply reported for a while and then left again.

Zhu Xu sat in the lobby, watching the reports that were constantly being delivered from everywhere, as if in a palace, never idle for a moment.

Before noon, Jin Zhongshan went ashore by the seaside of Xingshan, rode a horse, and rushed to Jinzhou without stopping.

Now south of the Daling River and north of Shanhaiguan, there are hard concrete roads everywhere, even if there is heavy snow, it does not affect the speed at all.

Not long after, Jin Zhongshan and his party arrived in Jinzhou City, and they couldn't wait to see Zhu Xu.

Wearing ordinary clothes, Zhu Xu watched as Jin Zhongshan rushed to the lobby from the outside in the heavy snow.

Jin Zhongshan's face was a little excited, and he knelt on one knee and said: "My minister Jin Zhongshan, see the emperor!"

It is still the awkward Chinese, Jin Zhongshan, a Japanese general, and the second-ranked Jeongheon doctor of North Korea.

Zhu Xu looked at him with a twinkle in his eyes, and with his left hand held up, just like a few years ago, he smiled and said: "Mr. Jin, please rise up. I haven't seen you for many years. Your demeanor is still the same."
