Four Japanese pirates' dens were wiped out in a row. In addition to seizing a large amount of money, Zhu Zhangui also got what he wanted.

Looking at the ledger in his hand and the letter from the Japanese pirates contacting the shore, Zhu Zhangui showed a satisfied smile.

These sea merchants are all wealthy households, so many people ransacked their homes, at least tens of millions of taels of silver.

After completely solving the problem of Japanese pirates in the coastal area, Zhu Zhangui wrote a memorial and sent it to the capital in a hurry.

The old man only gave him the task of exterminating Japanese pirates and water thieves. Things like ransacking homes and arresting people are not within his scope of authority.

Besides, he is still going to do some renovations, so he is going to play the role of a pirate and go to Xiaotian's house. How can he have so much time to do these things.

Jingshi replied very quickly.

Jin Yiwei Commander Ji Gang accompanied the imperial historian Zhang Xuan, and came directly to arrest people with the imperial decree.

The maritime merchants in Fujian, Jiangsu and Zhejiang fell into a catastrophe.

A large number of Jinyi guards rushed into the luxuriously decorated mansion, captured everyone and sealed off the entire mansion while the female scroll screamed and the guards were terrified.

Yongle 13 years of historical records.

On March 3, His Royal Highness Taisun used tricks to lure the Japanese pirates out of their nests. After a night of hard work, they wiped out most of the Japanese pirates in the coastal area at the Quanzhou Wharf.

Then he personally led the army to completely destroy the Japanese pirates' lair, and solved the Japanese pirates' trouble in the Daming sea area in one fell swoop.

At the same time, in the Japanese pirates' lair, many evidences of collusion between businessmen and Japanese pirates were found.

His Majesty learned that Long Yan was furious.

It was ordered that all those traitors who colluded with Japanese pirates and harmed the people of Ming Dynasty would be severely punished by ransacking their homes.

In this move, a total of hundreds of people who colluded with the Japanese pirates were arrested, and tens of thousands of family members were implicated and arrested.

After the Ministry of Criminal Justice interrogated and investigated Jin Yiwei, the first criminal who colluded with Japanese pirates was sentenced to beheading and his family property was confiscated.

The male members of the prisoner's family sent slaves to serve as slaves in Gandusi, while the females served as slaves in Jiaofangsi.

The Chief Political Envoy of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Fujian were arrested and imprisoned for crimes such as incompetent management of the local area, corruption and bribery, and thousands of officials were implicated.

For these corrupt officials who are benevolent and corrupt, according to Zhu Di's order, they will be killed without mercy.

The two chief envoys were even sentenced to Lingchi.

Of course, there are those who are dismissed and those who are promoted.

Because of his meritorious service in reporting and assisting Taisun in suppressing thieves, the prefect of Ningbo was recommended by His Royal Highness Taisun and assessed by the Ministry of Officials, and was officially promoted to the chief envoy of Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

The old man was promoted several levels in a row, weeping with joy, and at the same time completely labeled the Taisun Party on his forehead.

Thousands of households in Ningbo fought bravely, loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and adjusted the [-] battalion as the left guard general.

Quanzhou Weisuo and Zhangzhou Weisuo, which assisted Taisun in eradicating Japanese pirates, collectively recorded merit once, and the two guards commanded generals, recorded great merit once, and the next assessment will select the best for promotion.

The Ming Navy of the Shenji Battalion made great achievements in exterminating the Japanese pirates, and collectively recorded a great achievement, and all officers and soldiers received a [-]% increase in their salaries.

In terms of titles, there is no seal.

It wasn't long before Jianghuai was appointed uncle, and it wasn't a big battle, so it was impossible for him to be promoted.

That's right, in the eyes of the elders in the imperial court, the Japanese pirates are actually equal to the bandits, and they are nothing compared to the Northern Expedition.

Although Li Hu made a lot of contributions this time, the title was still a little short.

After discussing with the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Rites, it was decided to reward him with a thousand pieces of gold and give him a flying fish suit.

As for the grade, there is no increase.

The position of chief officer of the navy was set by the old man, and he is already a second-rank official rank. If he is promoted, he will enter the first-rank rank.

Li Hu was very sorry that he did not get the title.

I decided in my heart that I must work hard to fight the war in the future, and strive to get a title before I die, so as to exchange a guarantee for my stupid son.

The third day of May in the 13th year of Yongle.

In the Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Guangdong and Guangxi regions of Fujian, the grandson of the Japanese pirates and water thieves who had been disturbing for more than a month suddenly ordered the entire sea area to be under martial law.

The reason given was that warships from other countries were found overseas, and it was suspected that other countries were going to invade Ming Dynasty.

In order to prevent the enemy from stepping into the territory of Ming Dynasty, no ship is allowed to go to sea in all sea areas of Ming Dynasty without the emperor and his orders.

Anyone who dares to go to sea without permission will be punished as collaborating with the enemy.

At the same time, he will take the navy and the Shenji Battalion to Xiaoliuqiu Island to establish a sea frontline defense base to block the invading enemies of other countries.

The imperial court also strongly agreed with it, and even announced it to the people of the world and the surrounding foreign countries.

The land of the Ming Dynasty is inviolable, and if anyone dares to invade, all the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty will live with it.

Yongle August 13, 5.

The navy, ready to go, officially left the Quanzhou Wharf, pulling a boat full of soldiers from the Shenji Battalion, and headed for the opposite Xiaoliuqiu Island.

Standing on the deck, Zhu Zhangui was in a very good mood looking at the scenery at sea and the mighty fleet beside him.

"For the players who live a good life, I'm already hungry and thirsty for my sword. Are you ready for hell?"

Wa country, my grandson is here.

Chapter 169: Cut off the king's title and be demoted to common people.

"Oh, what's the matter with you? Why are you turning around in circles? Your head is sweaty. Did something happen?"

"By the way, there is also Zhan Yu. Didn't you say that you sent him to the new school? Why hasn't he come back after so long? I heard that they have Xiumu. It's been almost two months since he left. Why is it that one day? Never came back."

In the Palace of the King of Han, Princess Wei of the Han Dynasty was looking at the new gadgets she had just bought from the shop, and at the same time curiously asked the King of the Han Zhu Gaoxu who kept going back and forth.

"You play with your ball, why are you so idle!"

Zhu Gaoxu glared at him, and turned around again with his hands behind his back.

"Your Highness, Your Highness..."

A steward ran in quickly.

"How is it? Any news?"

Zhu Gaoxu grabbed the steward and asked quickly in a low voice.

The steward glanced at it, and Princess Webster, who was eavesdropping with her ear sideways, whispered the report in Zhu Gaoxu's ear.

"The villain has already inquired. The carriage did go out of the city, but it disappeared after a short time after leaving the city. I also inquired on the south side. No one else was found on the pirate's lair."

"Bastard, where did the people go!"

Zhu Gaoxu cursed angrily, and then asked, "What did King Zhao say?"

The steward replied.

"King Zhao said that after he sent people out of the city, he sent a few people to protect him, but he lost contact not long after he left the city."

"He suspected that he was taken away by the people from His Royal Highness's old father-in-law. He went to inquire about it in the past two days, but the mouth was very strict and he didn't inquire about anything. He asked you to wait! "

"Wait a fart!"

"I still need to inquire about it. It must have been taken away by that little bastard old father-in-law."

"Bastard, you dare to arrest my people and my son. You are looking for death. You think you can do whatever you want with a little bastard under your wing."

"Wait, I won't kill you, my fucking surname is dog!"

Hearing that his son and his subordinates might have been taken away by Zhu Zhangui's father-in-law, Zhu Gaoxu was so angry that he cursed.

Of course, more panic.

I teamed up with Japanese pirates to entrap my nephew, and even took my son as a hostage. If the old man found out, I would definitely have no good fruit to eat.

As for the life and death of his subordinates and his son, he didn't care at all.

There are many subordinates, and there are several sons. If they are gone, they will be gone. At worst, recruit more subordinates, and I will work hard to have more sons.

"Hanwang Highness, His Majesty declares you into the palace!"

Just when Zhu Gaoxu was yelling, an eunuch came in, saluted Zhu Gaoxu, and announced that the old man was going to summon him.

When he heard that the old man was going to be summoned, Zhu Gaoxu panicked, stepped forward and took out a handful of golden beans from his bosom, and stuffed them into the hands of the little eunuch.

"This…"

The little eunuch hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether he should take it or not.

"Take it, this is your hard-earned money!"

Zhu Gaoxu smiled and put the golden bean into the opponent's sleeve.

Feeling the weight in the sleeve, the little eunuch looked around and said in a low voice: "The emperor doesn't seem to be in a good mood. He sent his highness back to the East Palace in the morning. Since then, there has been no smiling face. Be careful." point."

"Also, not only have you been notified, His Royal Highness Zhao Wang has also been called over."

After the little eunuch finished speaking, he bowed and withdrew.

"Hoohoo!"

Knowing that the old man was in a bad mood and had sent his Happy Treasure back to the East Palace, Zhu Gaoxu's heart was pounding in a panic, and he took a few breaths before calming down.

He gritted his teeth and stomped his feet for the last time.

"Whether it's a blessing or a curse, I can't avoid it. With a bowl-sized scar on my head, I don't believe that he will really kill me."

Cheering himself up, Zhu Gaoxu ignored the Han Princess Webster who was shouting behind him, changed clothes, took a fast horse, and hurried to the palace.

When he arrived at the palace, he inquired, and after confirming that Zhu Gaosui had not entered, he was not in a hurry to enter, so he waited at the door.

After a while, Zhu Gaosui also hurried over.

"Second brother!"

Zhu Gaosui, who jumped off the horse, said hello.

Zhu Gaoxu looked at the gatekeeper, and pulled Zhu Gaosui to the corner.

"Tell me the truth, do you know where he is!"

Zhu Gaosui was also flustered.

"I did send people out, but they disappeared after I went out, and I don't know."

"Since the news came from the south, I have been going crazy for the past few days. I kept sending people to look for it, but I couldn't find any clues."

"The entire capital can do this, except for Ji Gang who is the father-in-law of that brat."

"I have eyes and ears at Jinyiwei. If Ji Gang arrested someone, I will definitely receive news. But now I can't find any clues, which means that the person is not in Jinyiwei, but somewhere else, probably in Where is the old father-in-law of the little boy."

"After all, there is only there, I have no eyes and ears!"

After hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu gritted his teeth and wandered back and forth for a long time.

"Then do you know why the old man called us over?"

Zhu Gaosui spread his hands.

"If you ask me to check other people, I can still find out a little bit. Do I have the guts to arrange people around the old man?"

Zhu Gaoxu was so angry that he pointed at Zhu Gaosui, and finally flicked his sleeves and left for the palace.

Looking at the angry and somewhat messy back, Zhu Gaosui showed a theater smile.

The old man told them to go over at this time, what else is there besides that matter?

The south side has been settled now. Those who should be liquidated and those who should be arrested have been dealt with. Now the old man has freed up his hands and can clean up his family.

Thinking of the old man's angry appearance, Zhu Gaosui reminded himself in his heart.

Don't be confused today.

This matter has nothing to do with me. If I get confused and get angered by the old man, it is pure bad luck.

With their own concerns, the two quickly walked to the Shang study where the old man was.

But as soon as he arrived at the place, Zhu Gaoxu panicked again.

In the past, at the door of Shangshu's office, Jin Yiwei, eunuchs or court ladies were on duty.

But today, there was a team of armored guards standing at the door.

"Hoohoo!"
