In the tent.

Zhu Zhen and Naha were in a stalemate for a moment, then sighed and said: "The Taiwei is a man of understanding, and he will not speak secretly in front of a man of understanding. I can rest assured that Chahan will be the co-president of the Great Ningdu, but I can't rest assured of letting you." Come on."

"Yes, he is too stupid." Naha nodded in agreement: "Allowing this kind of person to lead the ministries will only exacerbate the conflicts and divisions among the ministries."

"You underestimate me, and you underestimate the court even more." Zhu Zhen shook his head and said: "My Ming Dynasty is inclusive. In Yunnan, chieftains can be prefects and envoys, and even now there are native officials serving in the Chief Secretary and Chasi. So the court I can accommodate you, but only if you make the court feel at ease.”

"I understand." Naha said: "I am the Dusi Tongzhi, and I cannot let the court feel at ease."

"No, it's Daning Dusi." Zhu Zhen corrected him: "Daning Dusi is outside Xifengkou, in the ancient Huizhou area, connected to Liaozuo in the east and Xuanfu in the west. The location is really important. The imperial court is on a business trip. If you make the wrong move, the tragedy of losing Youyan may happen again, so we will never let a strong man like Taiwei rule over a hundred thousand people and settle here."

As he spoke, he glanced at Naha and said, "In the eyes of many people, this is a greater threat than the Northern Yuan court."

"Okay..." Naha knew that his dream of getting Daning Dusi was shattered. I had no choice but to retreat and ask, "Where is Song Liao?"

"Song Liao can't do it either." Zhu Zhen still shook his head and said, "It's still too close."

"Then it's up to you, Your Majesty. As long as you don't leave the Northeast, you can go anywhere." Nahachu asked pitifully: "We have been living in the Northeast for generations, and we will definitely be acclimated to another place."

Zhu Zhenxin said that you are wrong. People from the Northeast will live a better life after leaving the Northeast. However, he could not correct Nahachu, so he said: "The old place of Marshal Zhengdong's Mansion can be used."

"Marshal Zhengdong's Mansion?" Naha was stunned. Of course he knew where Zhu Zhen was talking about, because it was a military institution established by the Yuan Dynasty in the north of Northeast China to guard the lower reaches of Heilongjiang and Sakhalin Island.

"That's right." Zhu Zhen nodded and said: "I have already asked the imperial court to set up the Nu'er Gandu Division at the old site of Marshal Zhengdong's Mansion. If you are willing, you don't need to be an acquaintance and can directly serve as the commander of the capital. "

"Yes, the imperial court must be worried about sealing me in such a far place." Naha said with a bitter face: "But that's too far. Nuergancheng, where he governs, is located at the estuary of Heilongjiang River. Liaodong is four thousand miles away, with dangerous roads and staggered cliffs, so even I have never been there. I have only heard that it is possible to go boating there because of the abundant water in midsummer. In winter, you can use dogs to rake the land without crops. Millet, the indigenous people make a living by fishing and hunting, and cannot graze.”

"You are wrong. The capital of Nuergan cannot graze cattle, but the entire Nuergan is so vast that it is beyond imagination." Zhu Zhen said solemnly: "The area under its jurisdiction extends to the sea in the east, Sakhalin Island in the northeast, and in the west The Onan River is connected to the Tumen River in the south and the Waixing'an Mountains in the north, and there are many excellent pastures. "

"The winter is really too cold." Naha said: "We authentic Northeasterners can't stand it."

"You can go south to Vladivostok for the winter," Zhu Zhen said: "The climate there is similar to that of Liaoyang, and the ice period at the port is also short. The imperial court can set up a shipping department in Vladivostok to facilitate the exchange of supplies."

"Is this..." Naha was no longer as repellent as at first.

"Nuer Gandu Sileng is a bit cold, but it is definitely a good place. Take the northernmost Waixing'an Mountains as an example. Han people moved here during the Tang Dynasty, and hundreds of tribes of all sizes are still living here, so you You can make a difference." Zhu Zhen continued: "And there is a lot to be done. Whether you want to expand northward or advance westward, the imperial court will support you!"

"Uh..." Naha looked confused for a while, and You asked reluctantly: "Is there no other choice?"

"This is the only place in the north." Zhu Zhen said: "If you are really afraid of the cold, you can come back to Yunnan with me. The next step for the imperial court is to explore the Indochina Peninsula. The vast world there is even more promising, not to mention commanding all the envoys. , even if I give you a country, it’s no problem.”

After a pause, he said: "And it's absolutely warm. You can go shirtless all year round."

"..." Naha became even more confused after hearing this. Of course he didn't want to move his family thousands of miles south, but the Northeastern people's desire for the warm south is like a bear that knows it will be stung into a pig's head, but still can't resist the temptation of honey.

Zhu Zhen waited for a moment and saw that he was still struggling, so he suggested: "Let's keep these two choices for you, and give you two years to personally inspect these two places. Then you can It’s okay to make a decision, right?”

"That's fine..." Naha nodded subconsciously, then came to his senses and said with a wry smile: "I'm obviously dissatisfied with both sides, since when did it become one of two choices?"

"Lieutenant, don't push your limits. What you said clearly is that you don't want all the ministries to become a piece of loose sand." Hearing this, Zhu Zhen's face darkened and he said, "Both of these two plans can unite the ministries closely under your command. What else is there to be dissatisfied about?" What about?”

"Your Majesty is right..." Naha Chu felt nervous, fearing that Zhu Zhen would fall out with him again, so he nodded quickly and said: "Indeed, whether you go north or south, you can get what you want."

Having said that, he, an old fox, still wanted to try and see if he could get better conditions, so he refused to nod.

"Enough is enough." Zhu Zhen persuaded with sincerity: "How can things in this world be as one wishes? Wasn't even this king forced into the water by you? So compromise is the right thing to do."

Finally, he spread his hands and said: "I have always said that I can only give you so much. If you are not satisfied, then write to the court and see if my father can give you more."

"It's too late..." Seeing that Zhu Zhen was about to give up his options again, Nahachu smiled bitterly: "They only wait for me until the end of August, and they won't wait until the end of August, so there is no time to report to Nanjing."

"So if we want to go on an expedition, we have to set off within the next few days?" Zhu Zhen lost his voice and said, "Naha comes out, Naha comes out, you want to kill me, right?"

As he spoke, he slapped the table angrily and said: "The Beiyuan royal court still has 100,000 forbidden troops. The imperial court must send at least 200,000 troops to fight and win! Do you think this king can use so many troops? Even if he can get it, How can we guarantee the logistics of an army of 200,000 people? This is a big problem! How can I solve it in a few days?"

"Yes..." Zhu Zhen was talking about actual difficulties. Even Nahachu had to nod his head and said: "It is indeed very difficult."
