Zhu Houxi, father and son, appeared in front of Wang Yue.

"Let's go, I'll take a few of them to see the excitement, and then it's time to enjoy the mountains and rivers and enjoy the exotic customs." Zhu Houxi said lightly.

Wang Yue's face changed suddenly, and he was speechless.

What the hell are you kidding?

Can a dignified emperor go to sea casually? And even if the emperor runs away, he can't take away all the princes! In case of a big wave, you will have to feed the sharks.

Besides, you guys joining in the fun, it will disrupt my layout, you know?

Zhu Houxi knew Wang Yue well, he smiled, grabbed Wang Yue's arm, and said movingly: "You also watched these children grow up, I didn't give them fiefdoms, I just let them go to martial arts to study." But I thought left and right, and I felt that I had treated the child badly. Let's go out together, and find them a fief by the way, which can be regarded as a part of your master's heart. ”

Zhu Houxi said, glanced at the boy, and from Zhu Zaili down, brushed and gave gifts.

"Thank you, Master!"

What else can Wang Yue say, he won't turn his face with a few children!

Wait a minute!

"Your Majesty, what's the matter with me, the Grand Master?"

"Naturally, it's for your credit." Zhu Houxi smiled and said: "I have asked the celebrant to draw up a decree to add a master and a young master to you, and you will be awarded the title of Auxiliary Guogong." ”

After a pause, Zhu Houxi sighed again: "Actually, I thought about directly becoming the king, but then I thought about it, you are bound to make great achievements when you go to sea this time, and I will keep this prince for you." I will do what I say, but I will never break my word! ”

Wang Yue doesn't want to speak, who is rare about your knighthood, I want to go to sea, I have to find a way, when I am the son of overseas heaven, you bastard, you have to stir up not to say, and you also sent three sons, do you know too much?

When I get to the sea, I'll find a place where no one is around, throw you into the sea, and forget it, out of the Ming Dynasty, but no one cares about you, the great tomorrow!

Wang Yue complained frantically, but he couldn't stop anything.

Such a big thing as going to sea is ready to fly, and it has to be sent.

Just after it was confirmed, Wang Yue handed over his resignation.

The Son of Heaven highly praised Wang Yue's merits, and added the title of Taishi, and was still the head of the ministers.

Immediately afterwards, Yan Song, the second assistant, was promoted to the first assistant, commanded the cabinet, and became the head of the Ming Dynasty. Just facing the cabinet members below, he only said a few words.

"The posture of a servant is just a fluke. Since then, everything has been according to the old system of Yuanfu, and the servants dare not compare themselves with Cao Shen, but Yuanfu is ten thousand times better than Xiao He...... In short, let's follow the rules! ”

Since the first assistant, Yan Song's statement can be regarded as the most humble inauguration declaration, not humble, because the emperor has issued a decree again, and the crown prince will supervise the country, and the internal and external government will be regent.

Now people know that the son of heaven who dares to love will also go to sea!

How does this work?

The kingdom cannot be without a king for a day!

What's more, crossing the ocean, how dangerous things are, no, absolutely not!

For a time, the exhortations were one after another.

Zhu Houxi was all suppressed, and he was in the early court.

"I understand all Aiqing's intentions, but you don't need to make a fuss. At the beginning, Emperor Taizong frequently went to the desert, and he was the prince who supervised the country. Although I went a little far this time, it was not a direct war with soldiers, and it was not so dangerous. ”

"Also, people who still say that the sea is too risky are not aware of the current situation at all, which is not good!" Zhu Houxi smiled and said, "I have already asked, taking the fleet to and from the Americas as an example, the accident rate is less than one in a thousand. If accidents happen often, won't the insurance company pay for death? ”

"Also, this time I went out with a fleet, hundreds of ships, tens of thousands of people, don't you think that the shipbuilding technology of the Ming Dynasty is not as good as that of Taizong, right?"

When Zhu Houxi said this, he smiled again, "You guys, you should think about it from a different angle, I have gone out and seen the situation outside, maybe I will be much more tolerant of you!" I have heard many people say that after leaving Daming, I know how good Daming is! ”

Zhu Houxi smiled and said: "Don't persuade any of you, I also want to be auspicious." If you have a heart, you should assist the prince well, work hard, and don't slack off. ”

"By the way, you have also worked hard for so many years, I have always been mean, and I didn't give you much reward, this time I will give you three months of money as a reward...... The household department is not allowed to cry poor, and it must be implemented as soon as possible. ”

Zhu Houxi didn't want to talk nonsense, but he couldn't control the chatterbox when it was opened, one after another, repeatedly admonishing each department, and putting forward requirements for all departments.

The courtiers in the main hall were also related.

To be honest, Zhu Houxi's image is not very good, stubborn, tough, shrewd, mean, and has always been very strict with officials.

If you want to reward it, there is no door, and if you do something, you must be unlucky, in so many big tomorrows, Zhu Houxi's degree of danger can definitely rank in the top two.

And today, listening to the emperor's almost nagging-like admonitions, the big guy was shocked to realize that it was this not so friendly emperor who created an unprecedented prosperity.

Let's ask today's Ming Dynasty, from the national strength, from the territory, from the military, from the finance, from the people's livelihood, and even, even the level of education, all of them have crushed the past generations.

Today's Daming has poured too many people's efforts, including themselves,

Thinking of this, the ministers knelt down and praised the great virtue of the Son of Heaven, and some of them were emotionally fragile, and even cried.

This early court did not end until the afternoon, during which Zhu Houxi also served a bowl of bird's nest to each of the ministers.

"When I was very young, I heard that this bird's nest is the nest of swiftlets, and it is the finest nourishing treasure. The blood swallow, in particular, is extraordinary. The bird's nest must be destroyed twice, forcing the mother bird's nest to build a nest with painstaking efforts, so it will appear blood red, so it is particularly nourishing. ”

"But recently, I heard that swiftlets are not rare in the South Seas, on the contrary, they are everywhere, and as for bird's nests, they may not be the same, anyway, the locals don't eat them much."

Zhu Houxi held a small bowl and said with a smile: "Read 10,000 books and travel 10,000 miles." This time, I'm going south, let's go and see what's going on. ”

"By the way, the cabinet should be arranged, and I will regularly send back some news and publish them in the newspaper. As for the non-governmental newspapers, they can also be reprinted, but they are told that they must pay me a manuscript fee, not a single yuan. ”

At this moment, Zhu Houxi is afraid that he is the most easy-going and the best time to speak in his life.

After explaining them one by one, I can finally go.

"Actually, Your Majesty is still quite scared, otherwise how could he say so much!"

Zhu Houxi gave Wang Yue a roll of his eyes, "You have become bolder!" ”

"I've always been timid!" Wang Yue said with a smile.

The corners of Zhu Houxi's mouth converged, and he sneered in his heart, let you be proud! Don't think I'm going to suffer, if I can't deal with you, I'm not the emperor in vain.

These two people are like friends for many years, and they have never suffered losses in their mouths.

They took the train all the way south and went straight to Yangzhou.

That's right, it's by train, and this artery that runs through the north and south has been opened.

In just three days, they arrived in Yangzhou, galloping, but that's it!

After arriving in Yangzhou, they did not go to Yingtian, but went straight to Liujiagang in Taicang, Suzhou. The reason why I chose this place is because Zheng He's fleet set off from here back then.

When he arrived at Liujiagang, Zhu Houxi, the three princes, and all the other attachés were all stunned.

Dense ships cover the surface of the river, and countless white sails stretch to the sky.

How many ships are there? I can't count them.

Among the many ships, a huge ship with four decks crossed the eyes, and this large ship was like a city on the sea, towering like a mountain.

Among the tall bodies, there are as many as a hundred cannons, and it is completely a mobile battery.

In the cabin, there is a living room, a bedroom, a chess and card room, a shop, a post office, a medical room, and even a bathroom.

In fact, Wang Yue also planned to do so, the entire fleet has more than 500 ships of various types, with a total of more than 30,000 people, not counting the merchant ships that follow behind the fleet.

In terms of the size of the fleet, it was twice that of Zheng He's fleet, especially in the cabin, there was not much silk tea, and instead it was all weapons.

We're not here to give gifts and make friends, but to tell everyone that Da Ming is back!

Wang Yue and Zhu Houxi went to the Tianfei Palace together, sacrificed to the god of the sea, and then boarded the big ship together, this force that was enough to destroy the country, and put it where it should go.
