After entering the Ministry of War, Zhu Houzhao sat on the main seat, Liu Daxia was with him, Zhu Houzhao looked around curiously, and then a faint smile appeared on his face: "This is the first time to come to the Ministry of War, wait a minute, Mr., why don't you accompany the palace around?" Saying that, Zhu Hou looked at Liu Daxia.

"Since His Highness has this Yaxing, the minister is naturally willing to accompany His Highness to go around the military department." Liu Daxia hurriedly said with a smile.

Zhu Houzhao nodded, he didn't continue to go around the bend, if he was going around, it was estimated that Liu Daxia would think more.

In fact, at this moment, Liu Daxia has already thought about it a lot, the prince personally went to the military department, this is definitely not a trivial matter, Liu Daxia repeatedly reminded himself in his heart, be careful, be careful, be careful.

"Sir, I heard a few days ago that Mr. refused to hand over the record of the use of troops against Annan during the Yongle period?" Zhu Houzhao said this sentence in a gentle tone, but the words themselves were very polite. Refusing to hand over the record of the use of troops against Annan during the Yongle period is not something that a courtier should do, especially if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asks you.

Liu Daxia was shocked, this is a slander who entered in front of the prince, it's too bad, don't let the old man know who he is.

"Back to Your Highness, this is indeed the case!"

Liu Daxia is a secretary of the military department, and he has been in the sea for a long time, although he is very unhappy in his heart, but his face has not changed at all, and he still replied very peacefully, that feeling is like you are saying "Have you eaten?" Then he replied "I ate" as if it were a very normal thing.

"That was the old thing in the Chenghua period, when the minister was still in the military department, Wang Zhi came to the military department to ask for the military record of the British Gongnan expedition in the Yongle period, but it was not hidden by the minister as said outside, nor was it burned by the minister as said outside." Liu Daxia explained with a smile: "Don't talk about burning, it's a big crime to hide it privately." ”

"The minister just didn't hand him over to Wang Zhi, but went to find Lord Shangshu, and Lord Shangshu went to meet the emperor, and it was over later."

Zhu Houzhao nodded suddenly, and then said: "This palace still doesn't understand, it should be a good thing to conquer Annan and raise the prestige of our country, why does Mr. do this?" ”

"Your Highness, at that time, the imperial court was under-prepared, the soldiers were also lacking in training, and the treasury was empty, so how difficult was it to conquer Annan? It took a lot of effort for the British to conquer Annan at the beginning. When Liu Daxia said this, his emotions were a little excited: "How can Wang Zhi He De lead the army to conquer Annan, he can compare to the British duke?" ”

"Annan is remote, miasma is everywhere, the slightest carelessness will defeat the battle, and the land of Annan does not have to be conquered, so why bother to increase the national consumption to conquer them? If you are defeated, it will cause Yungui to erode, and the gains outweigh the losses! ”

"Wang Zhi wants to invite merit and favor, but he shouldn't think about it, this is a state affair, and he can't let him spoil state affairs by inviting merit and favorit."

Zhu Hou looked at Liu Daxia, his expression became serious, and then he said: "Mr. is really righteous, this palace has been taught!" ”

Liu Daxia hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Your Highness, these are just the duties of the courtiers, they are nothing, these are some old things, it is rare that Your Highness is interested." After so many years, if it weren't for His Highness mentioning it, the ministers would have forgotten it, Your Highness must remember, don't use swords and soldiers! ”

"Hongu knows!" Zhu Houzhao hurriedly put on a teachable look, and then said respectfully: "This palace has been learning these things in recent days, and I originally wanted to wait for Mr. to ask for advice when he arrived in the East Palace, but I couldn't bear to be curious, don't blame Mr.!" ”

"It is an honor for the minister to be able to solve the doubts of His Highness!" Liu Daxia also smiled and stroked his beard, feeling relieved.

Zhu Houzhao saw that the atmosphere was almost over, and he had a little bottom in his heart, so he said directly: "Sir, in addition to this matter, there is another thing that comes to the palace today. ”

Liu Daxia was stunned for a moment, then squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has anything to ask!" ”

Although he didn't care much and was very indifferent, Liu Daxia's heart still lifted, and he carefully prepared to deal with Zhu Houzhao's tricky questions.

"The palace wants to find some old files in the Taizong period, about the old files of the Three Treasures eunuch going to the South Seas, the palace heard people talk about this matter a few days ago, the palace wants to see, learn about the Nanyang customs, and learn about some chartered ships and going to the South Seas." Zhu Hou looked at Liu Daxia and said with a gentle smile.

Liu Daxia was stunned when he heard Zhu Houzhao's words, and then thought about it and said, "I'm afraid I'm looking for it!" ”

"It's okay, the main palace is empty today!" Saying that, Zhu Houzhao said to Liu Jin behind him: "You take a few people to look for it with the people from the military department." ”

Hearing Zhu Houzhao's words, Liu Daxia's face was a little unsightly, but he still didn't understand, why was this? However, Liu Daxia can be sure that someone has done a black hand to him behind his back. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince first asked about the old files of the expedition to Annan, and now he asked Zheng He about the old files of his trip to the West, which must be related.

Now send someone to follow to find it, this shows that he doesn't believe in himself, it's strange that Liu Daxia can be in a good mood, it's just terrible.

Zhu Houzhao naturally saw Liu Daxia's face, but at this time, he couldn't care so much, although Zhu Houzhao believed that Liu Daxia did not hide Zheng He's files, but Zhu Houzhao still didn't dare to take risks, what if Liu Daxia hid now? At this time, Zhu Houzhao doesn't believe anyone, the matter is too big.

Through the conversation just now, Zhu Houzhao can confirm that it is true that Liu Daxia hid Annan, but it was not really hidden, but it was just not handed over for the time being, which are completely two concepts.

Judging from Liu Daxia's reaction, he has not hidden or burned the charts, it is now the Hongzhi period, and it is not far from the Chenghua period, Zhu Houzhao has checked, and the Chenghua period has not set off a trend of going to the West from the new one at all, there is no such thing at all, obviously this is made up by later generations.

You must know that Liu Daxia's most famous deeds in his early years were to hide archives to fight against the eunuch Wang Zhi. With the passage of time, word of mouth, the fact is recolored by the preachers according to their own misunderstandings or likes, to carry a eunuch who fell very early? How could it be more painful than the demand against the emperor? Annan? No one has ever heard of a place, how can it be compared to the treasure shipyard built in the city of Nanjing!

Unconsciously, Liu Daxia inexplicably became a hero who was even greater and dramatic than his original deeds, bravely using violations of the laws of the Ming Dynasty to stop the emperor's frivolous behavior, and thus won respect and was considered a real important minister.

Liu Daxia is not the same as most of the Ming ministers, he is the seven Zhu Ming courtiers who were qualified to enshrine the emperors of the past dynasties during the Yongzheng period, and Li Wenzhong, Yang Shiqi, Yu Qian, you will find that Yang Shiqi is against Emperor Jiajing, Yu Qian is against Emperor Yingzong, hype up the courtiers, improve the status of the courtiers, so as to achieve the goal of the black emperor, this is not a great routine at all.
