The current time is already May of the thirteenth year of Hongxing in the Ming Dynasty, and according to the Western calendar, it is June 1660. Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Zhu Cihong is already an uncle in his thirties, and his father, Emperor Chongzhen, is already fifty years old.

Fifty years old is a big birthday, and Zhu Cihong, who is the first filial son of the Ming Dynasty, naturally has to take care of it for Emperor Chongzhen. Therefore, in the middle of April of the thirteenth year, he temporarily suspended the seemingly endless personal expedition, and led the imperial court down the mighty river, and only returned to the Laoshan Palace in early May.

On this day, he was in the newly completed Renshou Palace in the Laoshan Palace, and accompanied Chongzhen, who had just finished hunting and returned from the Laoshan Hunting Ground, to drink milk tea, and the Japanese music was delivered.

Because the Japanese chapter is related to Emperor Zhu's filial piety - the elixir of life prepared for Emperor Chongzhen's 50th birthday! Therefore, Zhu Cihong issued an edict that as soon as the Japanese recital arrived, it would be sent to him immediately.

Therefore, Huang Xiaobao, the eunuch who was in charge of the seal, immediately sent it to Zhu Cihong after receiving the Japanese national medal sent by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Emperor Zhu took the recital and flipped through it, and after reading it, he just sighed lightly.

Emperor Chongzhen, who was sitting opposite him, was drinking milk tea while talking to Mary. Mancini talked about where Western clocks were better – Mancini liked Milanese clocks, and Emperor Chongzhen liked Amsterdam clocks. But when Emperor Chongzhen was talking about clocks and watches, he was also paying attention to the great filial son Zhu Cihong, and when he saw him sighing, he asked curiously: "Emperor, is there something wrong with Japan?" ”

Zhu Cihong handed the piece back to Huang Dabao, and then said, "Father, what I sent today is the piece of the Queen of Japan. ”

"The Queen of Japan?" Chongzhen was stunned for a moment, "Wasn't the previous King of Wa a man?" How did you become a woman? ”

"It's not to become a woman, how can this change?" Zhu Cihong shook his head, "It's a different woman...... This woman had also served as a king earlier, ascended the throne at the age of 7, and became the Taishang at the age of 19. ”

"19-year-old Taishang?" Chongzhen pondered: It's worse than me! I let the rebel son take away the throne, what's the matter with her? At the age of 19, there is a rebel who can grab the throne?

Zhu Cihong said: "I started to be the Taishang for 17 years at the age of 19, and I was actually reset at the age of 36...... What a world of impermanence! ”

What the? Can it still be reset? Chongzhen's eyes lit up, he has been a ...... for 13 years Is there a chance in another 4 years?

"How did she get reset?" Chongzhen asked tentatively.

Zhu Cihong glanced at Chongzhen, and said angrily: "She was reinstated by sleeping with the rebellious minister and thief Tokugawa Mitsukoku!" ”

Oh, sleep with a loyal servant and filial son...... Chongzhen frowned, he can't learn this! He was willing to go to bed, but he didn't know who the rebels were!

Zhu Cihong said again: "Tokugawa Mitsukuni is ready to marry the Queen of Japan, and the Japanese shogunate and the imperial court will be combined in the future!" ”

Chongzhen nodded, "Emperor, you just sighed about this?" ”

"Of course not," Zhu Cihong said, "as long as the Japanese Imperial Kingdom can become the Kingdom of Japan...... It doesn't matter what the surname of the king of Japan is? Besides, Erchen has already arranged a stumbling block for Tokugawa Mitsukoku, and he will have a headache in the future! ”

Tokugawa Takawa Hoshina's recital came a few days earlier than Empress Mingzheng's recital, so Zhu Cihong already knew that Masayuki Hoshina was ready to be Xu Masayuki - in the future, Kyushu would be an independent kingdom within Japan!

Zhu Cihong calculated that the future Ming Emperor should have a concubine from the Xu family in Kyushu. Through this layer of relationship, the Xu family in Kyushu was firmly tied to the chariot of the Ming Empire.

"The Queen of Japan admits that she is a descendant of Xu Fu in the recital...... She also said that her ancestor Xu Fu did not find the overseas immortal island, so he did not get the elixir of life. ”

Chongzhen said in his heart: You rebel still want to live forever? Aren't you afraid of living too long and being overthrown by unfilial descendants?

"Father, don't worry!" At this time, Emperor Zhu comforted Chongzhen and said, "The Queen of Japan mentioned in the recital that her ancestor Xu Fu left many clues about overseas immortal mountains...... This overseas immortal mountain is in the center of the Pacific Ocean, 10,000 miles southeast of Japan, and the retainers will organize an expedition ship to find it as soon as possible, so the emperor still has hope to eat the elixir of life. ”

Of course, Hawaii is the "overseas fairy island" in the center of the Pacific Ocean, which is 10,000 miles southeast of Japan!

Because Hawaii is not on the ocean currents and shipping routes, Zhu Cihong is ready to send an expedition ship to find it, and if he can find it, he will occupy it as soon as possible.

And to carry out such a big exploration project, there must be an excuse, otherwise the Admiralty will not be able to make a budget for the upcoming separation from the military department!

Chongzhen smiled and said, "Don't report too much hope for the emperor...... The matter of immortality is too mysterious, and it is not something that a human monarch should believe. ”

Zhu Cihong nodded: "What my father taught me is, but what about filial piety, how can I bear to see my father old and frail and his body is declining?" ”

"What?" Chongzhen became angry when he heard this, "Where is my father old?" Where is the weak? It's good to be in good health for my father, and it won't be a problem to live another 50 years! It's you...... Don't worry too much about state affairs, take good care of your body, so that you can prolong your life. If you feel that state affairs can't be taken care of by no one, you might as well let the local tyrants have more experience. This son is very smart, just like you when you were a child! ”

Zhu Cihong smiled: "The local tyrant is the king of the United States, and he will become a country sooner or later, so he should have experienced it earlier, but it's still early, and he will talk about it after he finishes studying in Nanjing University Hall...... In fact, going to middle school and going to university is also a kind of experience, which is better than being bored in the palace. When he finishes his university studies, let him be a soldier for two years, and then go to the Royal Chamber of Commerce to train for a few years, he should be able to become a weapon, and the prince will also have this experience in the future. ”

"The same is true for the prince?" Emperor Chongzhen was stunned, "Emperor, governing the country is not the same thing as doing business and joining the army...... You have to understand the art of the emperor, and you have to have the ability to control the subordinates! ”

Zhu Cihong shook his head: "For the emperor, you must at least have middle and upper talents and knowledge, know some people and sophistication, know some people's sufferings, and have practical experience in management. ”

Of course, Emperor Zhu knew how to cultivate a famous monarch - there were too many experiences in this area for later generations to refer to.

He glanced at Chongzhen: "Experience more...... At least you can't be a faint king! ”

Later generations said that the end of the Ming Dynasty was rotten to the roots...... However, Zhu Cihong couldn't think of any country in the future that would give a sixteen or seventeen-year-old otaku who had no work experience, no social experience, no serious schooling, and never even left home to take full power with life and death!

Even the United States and Rakshasa can't hand over the nuclear button to such a person - maybe the end of the world has been rectified!

Emperor Chongzhen knew that this rebel was treating himself as a negative teaching material again, so he snorted, stopped drinking milk tea, stood up and said: "I am tired of hunting Laoshan today, I want to rest early, you can go back!" ”

Zhu Cihong also knew that he and Chongzhen had reached the time when they didn't talk for more than half a sentence, so he got up and saluted Chongzhen to the emperor, "Father, the son and son retire." ”

Mary who came with him. Mancini also curtsy and the two of them left Inshou Palace together and headed for the Pang Family Garden (Mancini's residence).

However, the two of them just walked to Yanshan Palace, Zhu Cihong's dormitory, and Huang Xiaobao handed Emperor Zhu a notebook, and Zhu Cihong took it and saw that it was a book for you to see. The person invited to meet was Zhu Cihong's eldest son, Zhu Hehao.

Zhu Hehao is now a fourth-grade student at Laoshan Middle School, and he will be admitted to the university in a few months - although he is a prince and can rely on the recommendation letter of the emperor Laozi to go through the back door, Zhu Cihong still hopes that his son can be admitted with his ability!

So he has already confessed, let Zhu Hehao use a fake name to take the test, and if he fails the test, he will use his privileges to go through the back door......
