The two lords of North Korea still did not wait until early the next morning, but entered the palace overnight.

Not long after Zhu Xu slept well, he was woken up.

Cao Huachun and the others did not dare to delay this matter, invited the two into the palace, and woke up Zhu Xu while entertaining them with good tea.

Zhu Xu washed up, beat his spirits, and met the two lords in the East Warm Pavilion.

The reason why there are two lords in North Korea is because of the 'rebellion' in North Korea, and now Li Liang and Li Hui are standing opposite Zhu Xu, and when Zhu Xu looked at their script, the two of them are you and I add a sentence, and explain this script to Zhu Xu in detail.

Zhu Xu looked at the playbook and listened to the words of the two, with a strange face.

The method that North Korea came up with is also peculiar, it is to go to the country name to the outside world, and does not use the national title, and 'North Korea' is a province of the Ming Dynasty. Internally, it is still the state of Korea, the king of Korea is hereditary, and the whole country has changed slightly, and it is 'no different' from other provinces of the Ming Dynasty, taxes are handed over, and defense affairs are moved up.

Zhu Xu pinched his chin and said as quietly as possible, "You mean that North Korea ...... Keep the country name internally, go to the country name externally, I Daming sent some officials to North Korea, upload and distribute, and the others remain unchanged, is this what it means? ”

Li Liang hurriedly said: "Yes, the subordinates think that only in this way can the Ming Dynasty be reasonable and have a long-term garrison in Pyongyang." ”

Li Hui continued: "After careful deliberation, the subordinates and others believe that this method is feasible. ”

Zhu Xu looked at the two of them, and the corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously. The fundamental purpose of these two people is actually to want the Ming Dynasty to continue to garrison troops in Korea, and if the Japanese State returns, they can 'rest with the Ming Dynasty'.

It's just that although these two people are righteous and awe-inspiring, they seem to be changing their methods to deceive the Ming Dynasty and deceive the Ming Dynasty to defend North Korea, and they are blatant, fair, reasonable, and well-founded, and find His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

According to the etiquette system, the king of Korea is the county king of the Ming Dynasty, and the DPRK is a subject country of the Ming Dynasty, whether it is out of the dignity of the Ming Dynasty or geostrategy, the Ming Dynasty must defend North Korea!

However, under the special circumstances of the Ming Dynasty now, after Zhu Xu deliberately made it difficult, it is commendable that the two kings of North Korea can come up with such a compromise solution.

At the same time, this also pushed Zhu Xu's plan to annex North Korea one step further, to this point, North Korea is part of the Ming Dynasty, a province, once the time is ripe, the king of North Korea is emptied, and it is natural for the Ming Dynasty to directly send someone to take over North Korea - a matter of edict!

Zhu Xu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and his eyes flickered slightly. The first island chain is still far from the Wa State, and there is a North Korea between the Wa State and the Ming Dynasty, and now that North Korea has been resolved, the next step is the Wa State!

Zhu Xu's thoughts instantly returned to his eyes, looking at the notebook in his hand, and then looking at the two Korean kings, and said in a deep voice, "It is my Ming Dynasty's responsibility to defend Korea, and I will issue an edict to the cabinet that Pyongyang's garrison must not be withdrawn, and it is not in the plan of the 'New Deal'!" ”

Li Kun, Li Hui was overjoyed, knelt down and said, "Minister, thank you, Your Majesty Longen!" North Korea and the Ming Dynasty, with the same glory and retirement, will remain unchanged forever! ”

Zhu Xu looked at the two of them, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said, "Flat, however, there is still a problem." ”

Li Ju and Li Hui's faces changed slightly, and they said with some caution, "May I ask Your Majesty what is the problem?" ”

Zhu Xu put down the notebook in his hand and said, "North Korea is a province, but there are two kings, how to deal with it?" ”

As soon as Zhu Xu's words came out, Li Liang and Li Hui both had stiff faces on their faces, because both of them were considered to have obtained the throne by 'rebellion', and the past was not glorious, so they couldn't be explored, and they couldn't say more, 'not in line with etiquette'.

This matter is not only controversial in North Korea, but also the Ming Dynasty is now very dissatisfied with this state of North Korea. Yuan Keli's sentence of 'crown shoes upside down' is still echoing in the government and the opposition. Every time the king of Joseon entered Beijing, someone wrote a letter, asking the court to severely punish the DPRK and 'put things right'.

Da Ming Xiu's "Shenzong Record" and "Xizong Record" all involve North Korea, which is very disgraceful, and North Korea has written five times, and even sent people to Beijing to present their feelings, hoping that Daming will not write this paragraph.

After all, history is like a knife, this is the annals of thousands of years, and future generations must see it!

Li Kun, Li Hui knew all this, but they didn't dare to mention it more, this matter was 'only understood but not spoken', seeing Zhu Xu bring it up, the two of them were embarrassed at first, and then looked frightened.

They don't know if Zhu Xu's words imply that the Ming Dynasty wants to 'set things right' against North Korea, and they are uneasy.

Cao Huachun not far away, Liu Shimin looked at the two panicked kings, and shook his head secretly, without the bearing of the lord of a country at all.

The room was quiet for a while, Li Liang stiffened, looked at Zhu Xu and said, "I don't know what Your Majesty and the imperial court think?" ”

Zhu Xu didn't think as much as they thought, and pretended to groan: "I didn't think about it before, now that I think about it, it's really a problem, but it's easy to do, after all, it's your internal affairs in North Korea, I pay attention, I give North Korea two county thrones, one in Pyongyang and one in Seoul, you can form your own cabinet, divide the north and the south, and major Korean affairs, you merge and discuss, if it's a major one, ask me to adjudicate, so as not to cause you another trouble and make me embarrassed, what do you think?" ”

Li Kun, Li Hui was stunned when he heard this, and then his heart was relieved, whether Da Ming had 'set things right', and then pondered again.

North Korea is now facing a problem, that is, the inheritance of the throne, and the reason why there are two kings now is because Li Liang did not kill Li Hui, was rescued by the Ming Dynasty, and the result of multiple compromises. But there is only one country in Korea, and it cannot always be two kings. However, this matter is very secretive in the DPRK and there is no way to talk about it. However, the Ming court has always wanted to 'set things right', and wanted to re-select one from the descendants of Li Hao, the ancestor of Li Hao, to inherit the Korean throne.

In this way, Li Hui and Li Liang have to be abolished and sentenced to prison. Both of them committed the great crime of 'rebellion', which cannot be forgiven!

Li Liang and Li Hui were both thinking about it, and they couldn't make up their minds for a while, so they looked at each other and were silent.

Zhu Xu picked up the teacup and drank tea quietly, not in a hurry.

A united Korea is not in the interests of the Ming Dynasty, if it is not only two kings, Zhu Xu even wants to divide it, so as not to have too many domestic backlash forces in North Korea and cause trouble for him at that time.

Cao Huachun already understood what Zhu Xu meant, looked at the two kings of North Korea hesitated, stepped forward, and said: "The two princes, the cabinet of the Bi Ge Lao just said to the emperor that the 'new deal' will be decided tonight, the two of you had better think clearly as soon as possible, go to the cabinet before this, with the emperor's will, the cabinet will not embarrass you, if it is late......"

Li Kun and Li Hui shook their bodies and raised their heads violently.

North Korea is very similar to the Ming Dynasty, the civil ministers are powerful, if the Ming cabinet has a tough attitude, His Majesty the Emperor in front of him is afraid that he will have to give in!

Li Kun and Li Hui looked at each other, suddenly turned to Zhu Xu, and said with a deep face, "The minister respectfully listens to His Majesty's holy order!" ”

They are afraid of the invasion of Korea by the Japanese state, and they are even more afraid of losing their thrones, although half of them are better than going to prison!

Zhu Xu's eyes flashed deeply, nodded with a smile, and said, "Well, that's fine." In the future, you will be good at running Korea, treat the people well, and you must not have any other thoughts, and you will issue an edict to canonize your sons before I do. Although the crown is lost, it must be added to the first, and although it is new, it must be about the foot. Where, there is a distinction between the top and the bottom. In the future, North Korea must not have another reversal of the crown, otherwise it will ...... There will be thunder! ”

Li Kun and Li Hui were shocked, their faces were slightly pale, and they knelt down again and said, "The minister obeys the order!" ”

Zhu Xu glanced at the two of them, turned his head to look at Cao Huachun, and said, "Prepare the will, seal it, and then take the two princes to see Sun Baigu, and let him take time to go to North Korea and read the will." Qin Yiming remained stationed in Pyongyang and was not allowed to move. The Jeju base was expanded and 10,000 navies were stationed. Ordered Xiong Tingbi, the commander-in-chief of Liaodong, to move 20,000 troops to be stationed in Yizhou to defend North Korea. The two princes, what do you think of these arrangements? Is there anything to add? ”

Li Kun and Li Hui are all overjoyed, Daming has deployed 60,000 troops in North Korea before, during and after, which is already a reassuring pill for them!

"The ministers have no objections, thank Your Majesty for your mercy, North Korea has the protection of the Ming Dynasty, and it will be worry-free for ten thousand years!" Li Kun and Li Hui were completely relieved, kneeling on the ground and saying loudly.

Zhu Xu smiled on his face and secretly exhaled in his heart.

North Korea has finally settled the matter.

In the future, the policy of the Ming Dynasty can enter North Korea in a grand manner!

Step by step!
