Reborn as a tyrant in the Ming Dynasty

"Perhaps the Liao strategy can be further improved!"

Thousands of miles away in the capital city, the sky was clear and blue. In the Dongnuan Pavilion, Zhu Youxiao stood with his hands behind his back, staring at the map hanging in front of him, and said with excitement, "How can I compare Li Jian with the Westerners Jin Yao, Li Gui and others?" Forget about the following conspiracy, as the suzerain state, Ming Dynasty has not officially canonized Li Jie yet!!"

After returning to the palace from inspecting the capital camp, Zhu Youxiao focused his attention on the strategy against Liao. After all, this was a battle that must be promoted for him, the emperor of tomorrow!

If we want to truly solve the long-standing evils and cancers of the Ming Dynasty, it is far from enough to rely solely on brutal killings. This can solve a group of demons and demons, but it is not enough to scare everyone. Therefore, we must use both civil and military strategies and various means. Only by completely subduing them!

"What is the emperor talking about?"

Zhu Youjian stood nearby with a puzzled look on his face.

"Royal brother, I want to test you on what is a suzerain state and what is a vassal state?"

Zhu Youxiao suppressed his smile, looked at Zhu Youjian and asked.

"The suzerain country is the superior country and is the common master of the world."

Zhu Youjian looked arrogant and said loudly: "In the whole world, is it the land of the king? On the shore of the land, is it the minister of the king! In the territory outside the Ming Dynasty, any country or tribe must pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty to show that the vassal country posture, and only the canonization carried out by the Ming Dynasty's decree to the world can have the true legal authority, otherwise it will be treason!"

"Yep."

Zhu Youxiao clapped his hands and laughed and said: "So there are some things that must be changed. I feel that it is time to resolve the issue of the vassal North Korea."

Is Li Jie following the tampering issue?

Zhu Youji thought of something, but he was not very clear about why his royal brother suddenly became interested in North Korea. You must know that North Korea's envoys stayed in the Ming Dynasty for a long time, in order to win the recognition of the Ming Dynasty and make them The current so-called king can truly gain a foothold in North Korea.

"The tribute system is such a good system. With just a few modifications, it can become an important pillar supporting the Chinese civilization circle."

However, Zhu Youxiao didn't care at all about Zhu Youjian's suspicions. What he was thinking about now was the path that the Ming Dynasty would take in the future. "When the appropriate period comes, the vassal Korea, Ryukyu, Annan and other places will be brought under central rule." , let them willingly choose to annex, then the limits of Ming’s local rule can be expanded accordingly.”

"At the same time, we try to build an overseas scope, and move forward alternately on both domestic and overseas legs. It will be difficult for Ming Dynasty not to become strong!"

The more Zhu Youxiao thought about it, the more excited he became.

Because he discovered a brand new path, riding on the wave of the Age of Discovery, he renamed some of the problems that had arisen in the Ming Dynasty to take root in farther areas. This could actually become a pillar supporting the Ming Dynasty!

However, Zhu Youxiao also knows very well that if he really chooses to take such a path, he will inevitably encounter many challenges and difficulties during the period. After all, there are too many things that cannot be achieved by just talking.

What he needs to solve now is the internal problems of Ming Dynasty.

It's just that the area of ​​North Korea has already come into Zhu Youxiao's sight, because if something can really be promoted, the effect will be immeasurable!

"Your Majesty, Fang Zhenghua would like to see you!"

While Zhu Youxiao was thinking about it, Liu Ruoyu, the eunuch of Qianqing Palace, lowered his head and walked into Dongnuan Pavilion.

"Xuan."

Zhu Youxiao said in a good mood.

"Brother Imperial, I will leave first."

"Go."

Zhu Youjian's training is a step-by-step process. Before Zhu Youjian reaches his expectations, there are some secrets that he cannot know.

No rules, no standards.

If Zhu Youjian knew everything, then Zhu Youxiao could not guarantee whether other thoughts would arise in Zhu Youjian's heart.

After all, people who grew up in the royal family were very precocious.

What Zhu Youxiao has to do now is to enrich Zhu Youjian's knowledge and vision, so that he can further understand human nature. As long as he can do these things well, there is nothing wrong with his character flaws.

Even if Zhu Youjian is to be reused in the future, it will be outside the Ming Dynasty. He governs a territory far smaller than the Ming Dynasty. This shortcoming is really nothing.

"Your Majesty, something happened."

Fang Zhenghua, who hurried in with a look of worry on his brows, bowed to his emperor and said, "Food prices have increased significantly in Tongzhou, Changping, Miyun, Tianjin, Baoding and other places. People's resentment has been bred in the above-mentioned areas. The people from Beijing who have rushed to various places to investigate Huangzhuang do not dare to act rashly now."

Zhu Youxiao, who was originally smiling, lost the smile on his face when he heard what Fang Zhenghua said, and his eyebrows also widened.

"When did this start to appear?"

Zhu Youxiao said in a low tone.

"Your Majesty, according to the news from various places, I speculate that it gradually appeared after the imperial village under Shuntian Mansion was investigated." Fang Zhenghua said matter-of-factly.

"Moreover, in Tongzhou, Changping, Miyun, Tianjin and other places, there were signs of a huge price hike, and this happened not long after the first batch of Xiaoxiao people were taken to Xishi for execution."

This is someone who can't sit still.

Zhu Youxiao frowned and couldn't help but secretly said in his heart.

"Your Majesty, there is one more thing."

Fang Zhenghua hesitated for a long time, but decided to tell it, "In several official fields in Shuntian Prefecture, the Liao people who were resettled suddenly rioted for unknown reasons, which caused a large amount of food to be destroyed."

"Does Yousi know about this?"

Zhu Youxiao stared at Liu Ruoyu who was serving in front of the emperor with cold eyes.

"Your Majesty, the Chief of Ceremonies has not received these memorials."

Liu Ruoyu hurriedly lowered his head and said.

"This is to express dissatisfaction to me!"

Zhu Youxiao snapped at the crime and said angrily: "Okay, that's great. I killed so many people before, but I still didn't scare them."

From the moment he decided to join the foreign court, Zhu Youxiao thought that no one would watch and do whatever he wanted to do.

After all, if this happens, their interests will inevitably be damaged.

It's just that the counterattack came too fast.

"Since they want to play, then I will play with them!"

Thinking of this, Zhu Youxiao said with sharp eyes: "If they want to use this method to demonstrate to me, then I will not rely on factory guards, but rely on what they are good at to defeat them and make them commit suicide!!"

Governing this vast Ming Dynasty can often not be solved simply by killing. All forms serve to rule.

Now some people know that relying solely on the central game can no longer play a role in checking and balancing the imperial power, so they want to expand the scope. If they blindly use force, they will fall into the trap of some people. This is the most insidious place! !
