My Daming New Empire

"Fuck! How can the old Zhu family produce such scum!" Zhu Zhanji cursed secretly in his heart, wishing to kill this person directly, but he could only suppress the anger in his heart.

According to the rules established by Zhu Yuanzhang, as long as these clans were not rebellious, it would be difficult for the emperor to kill people directly. At most, they would be imprisoned in the high wall of Fengyang.

These clans also have no scruples in doing things because they have the gold medal for avoiding death.

Zhu Guijuan, I remember you. If I don’t torture you to death this time, I won’t be named Zhu.

Today, I held a group wedding for dozens of subordinates. I was in a good mood, but now I have completely ruined it.Zhu Zhanji snorted, and stepped into the hall first with a cold face.

The hall was filled with tables and chairs. On a round table in the middle, Zhu Di sat there with a cold face. Not far from him, there was Zhu Guijuan, the son of King Liao, kneeling.

In the same line as King Liao, Zhu Di was not close at all.The original fiefdom of the Liao king was from Shanhaiguan to the Yalu River in later generations, but Zhu Di rebelled. Jianwen worried that Zhu Zhi, who was not far from Zhu Di and had a large army, would support Zhu Di, so he called Zhu Zhi to Nanjing.Zhu Zhi obeyed the order of Emperor Jianwen and came to the capital by sea.

At that time, King Zhu Bo of Xiang, who was originally sealed in Jingzhou Mansion, set himself on fire because he opposed the reduction of the vassal.He had no descendants, so the feudal vassal was abolished.

Seeing that King Liao was so obedient, Jianwen sealed him to Jingzhou.

But what Zhu Zhi didn't expect was that Zhu Di, whom he didn't want to talk to at first, became the emperor, and this time he bet on the wrong treasure.

After Zhu Di won the throne, he complained that Zhu Zhi didn't support him during the Jingnan Incident, so he didn't like him.In the tenth year of Yongle, Zhu Di also found an excuse to cut off his guards, leaving only 300 military school cooks for him.

A prince like this should keep a low profile, but he didn't expect that this Zhu Guijuan would dare to commit crimes in the capital.

And if Zhu Di knew about the case, it must be Jin Yiwei, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, or the Ministry of Punishment. One of the three departments must have accepted the case.

If Jin Yiwei and the Metropolitan Procuratorate knew about it first, it might be Zhu Di who wanted to deal with them.But if the deceased's husband's family sued the Yingtian government office or the Ministry of punishment, it would be a matter of business.

With some doubts, Zhu Zhanji walked towards Zhu Di while greeting the others. "Grandfather, grandson is back."

"Is the wedding still lively?"

Zhu Zhanji took out a stone from his arms and said with a smile: "Everything is simple, it is not lively or not, but the soldiers are very satisfied. One of the soldiers once picked up a Yuhua stone in Yizhenyuetang, because of its unique pattern , Tet asked his grandson to submit it to Grandpa Huang."

Zhu Di was a little curious. He knew that Zhu Zhanji didn't like these strange people. Now that he presented this stone in front of so many people, there must be something special about it.

After taking the white stone and seeing the patterns on it clearly, he couldn't help but gasped.The pattern on this stone is [-]% similar to his name Di, which is rare.

When he saw it, he liked it very much, and said with a smile: "This is really a good gift, but I didn't expect that I didn't give them a reward, but they still remember me. This is better than the clansman who only troubles me all day long." It's more joyful."

Zhu Zhanji said with a smile: "There are hundreds of people, and there are all kinds of strange things. If you want to be united, you need to set the same goal and impose a strict system. Letting go will only lead to bad things."

He didn't know whether he was looking at the stone or thinking about something. He held the stone and looked at it for a while, and then said: "Like this stone, although there are natural talents, most of them need to be carefully carved... Zhu Guijuan, you too Get up, today is the holiday, you can't spoil everyone's mood because of you, let's talk about your business tomorrow!"

Zhu Zhanji saw him smiling flatteringly at himself, but ignored him.This person is one year older than him, and he is also his uncle according to his seniority. Even if he is wrong, there is no reason for a junior to criticize him.

So it's best for him not to touch this matter now.

According to the rules left by Zhu Yuanzhang, at most he was punished with fines and confinement.The length of confinement is also related to the identity of the deceased. If it is an ordinary person, it would be considered good if he can be imprisoned for a month.

But, since he is such an unbearable person, Zhu Zhanji has already sentenced him to death in his heart,

Zhu Zhanji doesn't think that because he has the same great-grandfather, he should enjoy the privilege.Rather than being restricted by civil servants in the future, it is better to establish strict rules from the beginning, self-restraint and self-protection.

There is a curfew in the palace, and it is the eight o'clock in the future.In the summer of Haizheng, that is, ten o'clock in the later generations, the palace gate will be closed tightly and will not be opened again.

At this time, no one can open the gate of the palace except the emperor personally decreed.

The atmosphere of today's family banquet was not lively, Zhu Di was high above the others, and Zhu Gaochi, who had a close relationship with the clan, was now in the capital, but Zhu Zhanji had a normal relationship with these clans.

So before Xu time, this slightly dull banquet broke up.

Zhu Di was in a bad mood today, drank two more glasses, and then went back to the harem to rest.Zhu Zhanji originally wanted to talk to him about the arrangement of the head of the inner prison who went to sea with him, but it can only be another day.

This time he went to sea, he was the chief envoy, Zheng He was the deputy envoy, and Hou Xian, who had just returned from the sea, stayed behind this time, but there was also Wang Jinghong, who was also familiar with the Nanyang countries, to help Zheng He lighten the burden.

The three of them are responsible for the overall work of the entire fleet, whether it is the envoy group, the trade group, the navigation command, or the combat command, they are all under the overall control of the three.

The head of the internal prison is Zhu Zhanji's most caring eunuch Jin Kuo. He is the chief eunuch in charge of the internal prison trade, but there must be a few positions for Zhu Di's trusted eunuchs.

For this trip to sea, a total of 500 people were mobilized from the internal prison alone. They spent the past six months raising a large amount of trade materials from all over the country.

This time the internal supervisor is fully prepared to turn all these goods into gold and silver and various means of production and transport them back.

The envoys were jointly established by the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Political Affairs, and the Ministry of Jinyiwei. They were responsible for the diplomatic aspects of the fleet, and the chief manager was Jin Chun, the right minister of the Ministry of Rites.

After the Battle of Japan, Jin Chun, a rather staid civil servant in Zhu Zhanji's heart, became intimate with him.

This kind of intimacy is not intentional, but a little interest in Zhu Zhanji's way of doing things.

When he was in Dongying, he still had a lot of opinions on Zhu Zhanji, thinking that Zhu Zhanji was more than domineering but not kingly.

But after discovering that Zhu Zhanji's method was more useful than his, he happily and carefully studied Zhu Zhanji's way of life. This trip to sea was also at his own request.

There are more than 500 people in the diplomatic mission, and in addition to officials at all levels, most of them are translators, which also leads to the fact that foreigners account for more than half of them.

There are even people from Eastern and Southern Europe inside, some of them were captured, and some were brought here by their envoys to do business in South Asia.

The chief interpreter of the envoy is Ma Huan Ma Zongdao, whom Zhu Zhanji appreciates more. He is knowledgeable and has a high level of diplomacy.

As soon as the book "Ying Ya Sheng Lan" was published, he also became the most authoritative person in the diplomatic field of Ming Dynasty, only slightly less famous than Chen Cheng who is helping Zhu Zhanji manage the Xiamaqiao farm now.

This is mainly because Chen Cheng, as the chief official, was involved in Central Asia and helped Daming bring the entire Western Regions into the ruling circle.Ma Huan was originally just a translator, so he was not as good as Chen Cheng.

The chief of fleet navigation is Zhu Zhen, the commander-in-chief of the Second Fleet of the Navy. He will be in charge of the march of nearly a thousand ships for this trip.He once sailed to the West three times at the age of Zheng He, and these tasks are very familiar to him.

Secondly, he is also the commander of naval operations. Most of the [-] navies on this mission will be directly under his command.

However, with the strength of the Ming Fleet, I am afraid that no one would dare to stroke the tiger's beard. Therefore, although the navy has a large number of people, it is mostly used as a navigation support force.

The army combat commander is Zhu Zhanji's confidant Xue Lu. He leads the 2 Shenji Battalion, and the 1 Yulin Guards led by the deputy commander Zhao Yongliang will be the main force of the military combat part.

However, Huang Yuan, the garrison, has become the head of the logistics support department. Although his rank is not high enough, with the support of Zhu Zhanji and Zheng He, no one dares to raise opinions.

The projects he is responsible for are relatively complicated, and he is responsible for financial management, logistics supply, medical care, and communication.

The general manager of the young army is Zhang Fengshan, the former commander of the young army. He has now been promoted to the guard of the Habayashi Guard. The defense around him, and he is also the head of Habayashi Guard School, a general with great potential.

His disadvantage is that he is a bit old, so now he does not pursue a high official career, so he is at ease by Zhu Zhanji's side and helps Zhu Zhanji manage talent training.

During this mission, all eight hundred young troops traveled together. They shouldered the task of drawing the most detailed world map, which Zhu Zhanji valued more than other things.

Because although the scale of the current world map is similar to that of later generations, the interior of most continents is relatively blurred.There are also small islands, such as New Zealand, that are not shown on the map.

Randomly counting the people who have already confirmed their trips, this is almost 9 people, and this is not counting the clan members and their entourages with a total number of 3000 people.

In addition, there are hundreds of envoys from various countries. This time they will go to sea, and they will all be sent back. When they return, they will bring new envoys from those small countries.

In addition, those nobles will have at least dozens of ships to go to Nanyang for trade with the fleet. They have all paid customs duties, and the Ming Fleet has the responsibility to protect them.
