As usual, Zhu Youxiao still celebrates the New Year with his family in the fifth year of the Apocalypse, so that everyone has a concept of home in their hearts, so that the concept of home and everything is prosperous will penetrate into the hearts of every member, and completely erase the shadow of the most ruthless emperor's family.

The three imperial uncles in Beijing, Zhu Youxiang, the concubine of the king of Shu and Zhu Youzhen, seven people made up a table, and Zhu Youxiao did not let them share any distant and close relatives, and several people sat together to discuss some plans to be carried out this year. In addition to Duan Wang Zhu Changhao playing happily in the cabinet, the other two imperial uncles Hui Wang Zhu Changrun and Gui Wang Zhu Changying are all holding positions incognito in the local government, not too big prefects, county prefects, according to the officials of the Jingcha department, the official reputation of the two is excellent, Zhu Youxiao plans to add a burden to them this year, let them go to the position of governor, if they can still be competent, it will be much easier, let them exercise in various ministries in the future, and then go overseas to become a vassal, As for Duanwang Zhu Changhao, he can go directly to the domain in two years, this guy is now slippery in the cabinet, and it is not a big problem to rule a country.

Zhu Youxiao simply told the three imperial uncles what he meant, good guys, and the three of them were taken aback, saying that they would definitely not be able to govern a country, and would rather be a free king than go overseas to become a vassal. Zhu Youxiao explained the truth of how the United States used the "dollar" to rule the world in later generations, and gave a detailed introduction to the current British constitutional monarchy, telling them that as long as they have a good grasp of the finances and the military, the rest should be handed over to the cabinet to do the work, and they must not monopolize power.

After arranging the three imperial uncles, there is only Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, Zhu Youxiao's arrangement is very contradictory, he doesn't know if he will be like the original history in the seventh year of the Apocalypse, although history has changed a lot, but there are still many things that want to happen in history. After thinking about it, it was decided that it would be better for Zhu Youzhen to arrange Zhu Youzhen with the idea of an successor, so that it might be better for Zhu Youzhen, so with the previous arrangements, it depends on what Zhu Youzhen chooses to do.

Zhu Youzhen saw the imperial brother staring at him, so he said: "Since the imperial brother plans to let the three imperial uncles go overseas, then I will also go overseas in the future." But now I want to go to the army to exercise first, I don't know what the imperial brother wants? Please arrange a place for me to go. ”

Zhu Youxiao said: "Looking back and talking about the place you went, since you decided to go to the army for training, you must accept the discipline of the army and promote your position according to the promotion habits of the army, this will be very dangerous, you must have a certain amount of mental preparation, can you accept it?" ”

"There is no problem, I have also received a systematic education in a military academy, and I should be able to adapt to military life very quickly, and I promise not to disgrace the imperial brother." Zhu Youzhen said firmly.

"I also want to be a vassal overseas in the future, is it okay? Brother Huang. Leng Buding, Zhu Youxiang also said.

"Absolutely." Zhu Youxiao replied without hesitation, "The premise is that you must also join the army like King Xin, make enough meritorious contributions in the army, and at least become a general, can you do it?" Just do it. ”

"No problem, I also join the army, so I won't tease them with Lord Duan in the cabinet. Ha, ha. Uncle Wang, don't blame me. "It seems that Zhu Youxiang is tired of playing in the cabinet.

looked at the concubine of the king of Shu: "Brother Huang, do you want to be a vassal overseas?" ”

"I'm not going, I'll help Uncle Duan Wang look at the cabinet for Your Majesty first, so that you can save a little worry." The concubine of the king of Shu said respectfully.

After sending away a few princes, Zhu Youxiao called Zhu Youzhen to his study, and the two brothers had a long talk. Zhu Youxiao told Zhu Youzhen that he and he are both the legitimate heirs of the Ming Dynasty, although he is now in power, if there is any accident, Zhu Youzhen is the first heir, unless Zhu Ciran is an adult and has the ability to govern the country, the edict will be handed over to Empress Zhang Yan. Human life is in heaven, and no one dares to guarantee how long they can live, but the country must have a prince in case of emergency. Now that you want to go to the army, you must protect your life and always remember your status as a prince, not only for yourself, but for the sake of the Ming dynasty of the Zhu dynasty. The place you are going to is the Northeast, where you will go with Mao Wenlong through the icy and snowy extremely cold region, and build a base there, where you can only be active in the summer, maybe only three or four months a year, but next year I will catch some captives of the Japanese Kingdom, let them go to work as coolies for us, build a port, and in the future you will go farther away to fight the world, if you succeed, no less than rebuild a Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Youxiao said that he drew a map of the world on his desk, because of the arrival of Western missionaries, Zhu Youxiao could still find a map like this, so he drew a map for Zhu Youzhen according to the general appearance, telling him the key geographical location and where he would go in the future. There is the United States in the future, and now there are only some colonies of European countries in the east, and Zhu Youxiao wants to reach out there now, become relatives with the Indians there, arm them, and deal with the Europeans together. Zhu Youxiao felt that the appearance of the Indians was more similar to that of the Chinese, and they should be more able to get their recognition, especially when those Europeans began to massacre the Indians, the Daming army came to send charcoal in the snow, and they could definitely get their favor, even if they could not drive the European forces out of the Americas, but there should be no problem with the Indians occupying half of the Americas, so that there would be no super empire in the future.

Zhu Youzhen didn't expect that the imperial brother would have such great ambitions, looking at the vast land of America, his heart was full of longing, thinking that one day he could lead the army to gallop across that fertile land, he felt that it was really a wonderful enjoyment, and he couldn't wait to realize his wish immediately.

Shortly after the Chinese New Year, Zhu Youzhen came to see Zhu Youxiao again, but this time he came with a person. Zhu Youxiao saw that the person who came was five short figures, with a chubby face, two small eyes squinted, and his head was very bright, no matter how he looked at this person, he had a cunning feeling.

Zhu Youzhen saw that the imperial brother was a little confused, so he opened his mouth and introduced: "Imperial brother, this is Zhou Kui's little junior brother, named Song Kangnian, because of his short appearance, he often calls himself Song Shorty or Song Child, I came to find Zhou Kui a few days ago, I chatted with him a few times, I think he is very knowledgeable, he wants to meet you, I brought him here, how about you take a look?" ”

The person who followed Zhu Youzhen immediately knelt down and bowed: "Song Kangnian, grass people, kowtow to Long Live Lord." ”

"Calm down, you're welcome, since my brother brought you here, it's a friend, no need to be polite." Zhu Youxiao commanded lightly.

Song Kangnian, Song Dwarf, Song Child, isn't this Li Zicheng's founding army teacher Song Xiance? This guy is also a super god stick in the late Ming Dynasty, what is the "Eighteen Sons of the Main Artifact", isn't it this guy who proposed it? A series of strategies such as giving advice to Li Zicheng, attacking the east and west, and marching in a roundabout way made the Ming army tired, and finally attacked Beijing, captured Beijing in one fell swoop, and destroyed the Zhu family? This is a capable person, and this person is also very calm, and when Li Zicheng was most proud, he suggested that he treat the former officials of the Ming Dynasty calmly and strictly prevent Wu Sangui from leading Qing soldiers into the customs. If he is asked to give Zhu Youjian advice, he will definitely get twice the result with half the effort, this guy is a pedantic man, and his kung fu to fool people is much stronger than Zhao Benshan, so it is absolutely no problem for him to fool the Indians.

Zhu Youxiao asked, "Where did Mr. Song come to Beijing to play?" Or did you come to visit your brother? ”

As soon as Song Kangnian heard this, he knew that Zhu Youxiao meant to ask him if he was willing to become a teacher, so he said: "Not long after the grass people came out of the school, the master asked the grass people to travel the world to gain knowledge and increase knowledge. Cao Min thought that the capital is the largest and most prosperous, and there must be many learned people, and if he heard that his senior brother came to live in Beijing, he first said hello to his senior brother and met his senior brother. Fortunately, he met King Shin Chitose, and then he dared to offer to see the face of the sky. Thank you for your grace. ”

This guy is really exquisite, and he speaks well, but if you want to subdue this person, you must have enough ability, or enough interests, to make him die for the Ming Dynasty.

"Seeing that Mr. is quite knowledgeable, he must be very accomplished in his studies, and there are not many people in King Xin's mansion, so Mr. will stay for the time being, how about helping King Xin take care of it first?" Zhu Youxiao began to test Song Kangnian's bottom line.

"Long live you, the grass people will beg for this bowl of rice to eat." Song Kangnian also saw that Zhu Youxiao was testing himself, so he pushed the boat down the river and agreed.

made Zhu Youzhen inexplicable, why did the imperial brother just say these few words and give him to himself as a housekeeper. In fact, he didn't expect that Zhu Youxiao was giving him a big military division, a big fool, which can only be verified by what happens in the future.
