Rebirth of the Ming Dynasty: Sixth Generation of Glory, I don't want it

Ming Dynasty, the tenth year of Yongle, August.

Just do it.

The King of Ceylon, Alekunail, and his family arrived in the capital with all their limbs intact.

But after the grand ceremony of offering captives, Zhu Gaochi wrote a letter to the emperor, asking him not to kill them indiscriminately, and he stayed in the capital.

Zhu Di's number one confidant Qiu Fu, together with the attendant Guo Ji, escorted the newly-appointed King of Ceylon, the former King of Liao, to take over Ceylon. They set up the Ceylon Commandery on the spot, and built the Provincial Administration, the Garrison, and the Maritime Customs.

This time, the Liao King and his entourage set out in a swift and decisive manner, and the court was very efficient.

It took more than half a month to prepare it.

Zhu Gaochi accompanied the fleet all the way to Zhigu, and only returned to report to Zhu Di after watching the fleet go far away.

"Well, now Uncle Fifteen has gone to Ceylon, Uncle Seventeen has gone to Jiaozhi, Uncle Fourteen has gone to Ryukyu, and Uncle Nineteen has gone to Japan. What plans does Dad have for the rest?"

"without!"

Zhu Di was playing with a Japanese sword given to him by Li Jinglong.

"Don't be so righteous!"

Zhu Gaochi was quite speechless about his father.

"I've been sidelined by you, and I still have to be unreasonable!?"

Zhu Di asked back.

"Fake... Dad, you are just saying whatever you want now!"

Zhu Gaochi was completely speechless this time.

"I don't care. I want to go out. I want to take your mother out. You make the arrangements."

Zhu Di acted like a rogue.

He's really fine now.

A man whose only hobby is fighting, is so bored that he can only kill time by making Xu angry every day.

Originally, after conquering Annan, Zhu Gaochi thought he could conquer Mobei, but he ended up directly finding someone to be the Khan of Tatar.

Over the years, he has only gone on a few minor expeditions.

Zhu Gaochi made being an emperor boring.

This time he had been thinking of taking the opportunity to go out to sea, visit Ceylon, and then show off his power along the places where Zheng He had walked, to see if there would be any foolish people who would bump into him.

But this idea was unanimously opposed by civil and military officials.

The only time.

All the officials said in unison: Your Majesty, this is absolutely not possible~~~~

The word "ah" was shouted over and over again, lingering in the ears for three days!

He originally wanted to take care of state affairs to pass the time, but the cabinet team he had randomly selected before was quite outstanding.

Xie Jin had already compiled the "Yongle Encyclopedia".

The entire book consists of 22,937 volumes, bound into 11,095 books, which are piled up in the study. The bookshelves on three walls of the study are not enough to fill them all.

Hu Guang, Jin Youzi, Yang Shiqi, Yang Rong, Hu Yan, and Huang Huai were well versed in the principles of state governance and did a good job in assisting in the administration of the country.

Xia Yuanji filled the national treasury to the point where even the price of ordinary banknotes was raised to the face value.

Among the last batch of young eunuchs from Jiaozhi, the last few were selected to help classify and summarize the facts when there are too many of them.

Besides, he also has a fat son, Zhu Gaochi.

When he is lazy in governing, he lets Zhu Gaochi take over; when he is diligent, he takes over himself.

These days are so comfortable, really, so boring.

I really want to go out for a walk!

~~~~

Shocked by Zhu Di's rogue behavior, Zhu Gaochi returned to Wenhua Hall at noon and handed this huge problem to Zhang Xin.

His father wanted to go out and take his mother with him, so Xu had to take care of this matter.

He and Zhang Xin were unable to persuade Zhu Di, only Xu could.

Even if Xu also wants to leave the palace, Zhang Xin can go to Xu's place during the day to discuss where to go and how long to stay.

Zhang Xin accepted this quickly.

After Zhu Gaochi finished his lunch and went out, he went to the study and began to think.

There was nothing that could be done about the several times my father-in-law had to lead the army in person in my previous life.

There is a real lack of young military commanders.

First, the successive rebellions in Jiaozhi delayed the generals in the south.

Mu Sheng's first expedition with 50,000 men to conquer Jiaozhi Jianding was a failure.

These 50,000 people were an army equipped with firearms, cannons, and the most advanced weapons! And they actually lost!?

This forced his father-in-law to transfer Zhang Fu as well, and with an additional 50,000 troops, he was able to capture the Jianding Army.

After the Jianding Army, there were two more large-scale uprisings in Jiaozhi. During these rebellions, large and small, occurred one after another. Countless generals and soldiers stationed in Jiaozhi were killed or wounded. Many middle and senior officers were killed in Jiaozhi by mistake.

As a result, while Zhang Fu was following his father-in-law to fight in Mobei, he also took advantage of opportunities to launch the third and fourth expeditions to Jiaozhi.

During the entire Yongle period, Zhang Fu was ordered by his father-in-law from south to north and from north to south. He was never idle at all.

Don’t you want to be idle? No, it’s because your father-in-law has no one to use.

The first time the imperial court sent an army of 100,000 to the north, the entire army was wiped out.

Qiu Fu, a capable general under my father-in-law's command, Guo Ji, a secretary, He Fu, the general commander of Gansu, Li Yuan, Marquis of Anping, Wang Cong, Marquis of Wuyuan, and Wang Zhong, Marquis of Jing'an, all died in this first northern expedition.

After the abolition of the feudal system, there had to be people stationed at the borders across the country. They had to be both loyal and capable. More than half of the people had already gone, and the troops could not be easily transferred.

Those who died in the Northern Expedition are almost the only ones left in my father-in-law's hands.

When my father-in-law went to war in the later period, he had very few people at his disposal.

Speaking of the rebels in Jiaozhi, Zhang Xin always felt that the people sent by the imperial court were not competent and did not do a good job in pacifying the people.

But she also had doubts: where did the money for the Jiaozhi rebels to fight come from?

How could a small country that had been fighting against the Ming Dynasty's army for twenty years have the financial resources to support them for so long? In the end, Zhu Zhanji had to withdraw his troops.

But she didn't think about it carefully at that time. As she was in the deep palace, she only knew how to save money and not increase income.

Now she understands.

Those who supported Jiaozhi were the group of people in Jiangnan who had secretly engaged in maritime trade and became wealthy during the Hongwu Dynasty.

They couldn't let the royal family or the imperial court take away this big piece of pie.

Therefore, it is necessary to support the Jiaozhi people and force the imperial court to give up this enclave because of the trouble and huge military expenses.

They can only keep control of Jiaozhi, a very important supply point for going out to sea.

Now, after Zhu Gaochi's adjustment, the salaries of all officials have increased a lot.

The officials did not rely on them to provide money, so naturally they were not subject to their control. In most cases, the court's decrees were just what they said, and there was no bias towards the Jiangnan gentry.

Especially in recent years, most of the scholars who have entered officialdom through the imperial examinations have clean backgrounds compared to the officials left over from the Hongwu Dynasty.

After the imperial court fully liberalized the Ming Dynasty's maritime trade.

Anyone can have a piece of the pie of maritime trade.

They couldn't stop it.

In this life, there have been sporadic rebellions in Jiaozhi since my father-in-law conquered it. The largest one was still the Jianding Army, and the one sent by my father-in-law was still Mu Sheng.

There were casualties, but there was no need to send more people over, as Mu Sheng put the situation under control directly.

Prince Ning, who was enfeoffed there, wrote back.

The so-called descendants of the Chen family nominated by Jian Dingjun were nothing, but they gathered a group of people for no apparent reason.

Zhu Gaochi told her that this was a test of the court's bottom line.

If the court retreats, they advance.

If the imperial court does not retreat, they will stop.

There are so many twists and turns, really, she wouldn't realize it at all unless she lived her life over again.

She only looked at what happened in her own little piece of land.

I had no idea what an uncontrollable situation my father-in-law, husband and son were facing out there.

The situation in this life is very good now, so it’s okay for my father-in-law to want to go out and have some fun.

She already found it surprising that her father-in-law had been able to be patient and had not traveled far until now.

Since ancient times, when the country is peaceful and the people are prosperous, the emperor will go on tour.

Then let's go on a big outing.

It's the right time to tour the south of the Yangtze River, kill some corrupt officials, and rectify the administration.
