Although Zhuang Jing doesn't look down on Yang Zhangde, a lucky person, because the two of them have too similar styles.

But Yang Zhangde is with the grandson, and the future is limitless, so he still said very kindly: "Yang Qianhu, who also works for His Royal Highness, dare not say anything." I wonder when Your Highness sometimes sees me indirectly? ”

Yang Zhangde smiled: "Come with me, Your Highness will settle down, and I should see you." ”

The two of them turned their heads, and the smiles on their faces faded.

Of course, the county guard of Jeju Island is not called by this name, and since the Tang Dynasty, the king of Tamna has been called the Star Lord, and this title has continued until eleven years ago.

After Zhu Yuanzhang handed over Jeju Island to North Korea, in order to strengthen the administrative power over Jeju, Joseon Taizong changed the star lord to the left governor and the prince to the right governor. Since then, they have lost the power they once had.

In the fourth year of Yongle, North Korea continued the tradition of using Jeju Island as a pasture during the Yuan Dynasty, and set up Jeju herdsmen, which deprived most of the power of the hereditary star lords.

In the lobby of the Star Lord's Mansion, Zhu Zhanji, who was dressed in military uniform, met with the frightened contemporary Star Lord Gao Yide.

When the Japanese invaded, the shepherd fled into the island in a hurry, and Gao Yide wanted to escape, but before he could escape, he was arrested.

However, the Wako did not embarrass him, but just wore countless green hats on him.

When Tang Jing and the others attacked, the Japanese were defenseless, and they didn't have time to do anything to him when they fled, but let him escape.

Gao Yide is about the same size as the inhabitants of the island, less than 1.6 meters, short in stature, and has a beard (shaved hair), similar to the Xianbei tribe.

Originally, it was recorded that their clothes were up and down, similar to naked, but after so many years of development, the people of the island are now accustomed to wearing clothes.

When he learned that the tall young man in front of him was the imperial grandson of the Ming Empire, Gao Yide cried excitedly and crawled on the ground.

"His Royal Highness the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, please call the shots for Xiao Wang......"

Although his Da Ming words are a little out of tune, they can also be understood.

Zhu Zhanji said with a smile: "Your Tamluo Kingdom first surrendered to the former Yuan, and then to the DPRK, and my Ming Dynasty is just at the right time to save you." As for the call for it, there is no need to mention it again. ”

He wept bitterly and said: "Your Highness, Xiao Wang is a widow of the remnants, and he has always been devoted to China, but he has to be included in North Korea. In addition to the confession, the Korean kingdom turned a blind eye to us, and even when the Japanese invaded, they never came to save us. How can you hope for such a kingdom? ”

Zhu Zhanji's heart moved, and he didn't think that he had been detained for a few days, and his whole body smelled. He helped him up with his own hands, invited him into the lower seat, and sat unceremoniously on the throne in the middle of the main hall.

"Lord Gao Xing said cautiously that Tamna had become Jeju County in North Korea at this time. My Great Master is unknown, so it is naturally inconvenient to carry it. ”

As soon as he heard this, he knelt down again, and said with a long bow: "Your Highness, Xiao Wang is willing to submit his credentials to the Ming Empire, and from now on he will respect the Ming Dynasty, and I only hope that His Royal Highness can save Xiao Wang's subjects from fire and water." ”

Zhu Zhanji smiled at Zheng He, who was doing it, motioned to Li Liang to help him up and said: "This is a major national event, and Gu has not yet been in power, so it is inconvenient for him to be self-dictated." However, after the army rested for a few days, the remaining pirates were eliminated. Lone can take you to the Ming Dynasty, and His Majesty the Emperor will be the master for you. ”

To be honest, Zhu Zhanji is really not used to it.

In modern society, he was very dissatisfied with the subsequent international situation of his homeland. After coming to this era, he always wanted to expand his territory and conquer all directions.

But now I find that these small overseas countries are even more kneeling and licking than dog legs, and they want to hug their thighs as soon as they meet.

Do you still need to send out an army to fight? Not at all! You only need to send an envoy to it, and these small countries will take the initiative to attach it!

All of a sudden, he felt like he had nothing to do!

Of course, this is just a delusion.

If this High Star Lord hadn't been tortured at the hands of the Wako and had been given a green hat, I'm afraid he would have preferred to be his Earth Emperor here.

Zhu Zhanji didn't know what Zhu Di was thinking at this time, so naturally he couldn't give him any promises. After thinking about it, I didn't have the heart to deal with him.

Now that Jeju Island has fallen into its own hands, it is natural that it will not be easily returned to North Korea.

But on the bright side, Da Ming can't go too far, and he can't lose big because of small things.

The reason why Zhu Yuanzhang returned Jeju Island to North Korea was, on the one hand, that North Korea had robbed the demand and wanted to use North Korea to contain Dongying, so he gave up this island that could only raise horses.

On the other hand, it is also to set an example, and to make the small countries around Daming submit to Daming, highlighting the great power of Daming.

If North Korea is centrifuged because of a Jeju Island, and other small countries feel that the Ming Dynasty is too ugly, it will be worth the loss.

But Zhu Zhanji is a pure profiteer, and controlling Jeju Island is equivalent to controlling the throat of North Korea and Dongying, how could he give up so easily?

Even if he wants to return it to North Korea in the open, he will keep it firmly in his own hands.

Not only here, from Jeju Island, to Tsushima Island, to Zuodo Island, Hokkaido, he had to firmly control it, forming the Ping Domain on the eastern coast of the Ming Dynasty, and at the same time ensuring the safety of the Ming Dynasty's route to the north.

Zheng He, the officials of the General Administration Department and the Ministry of War quickly reached an agreement with Gao Yideok on the statistics of Jeju Island losses and the calculation of the existing population and resources.

In this way, the time for the departure of the Ming fleet will lag behind again.

However, there is still a month before the Chinese New Year, and there is still plenty of time!

Zhu Zhanji did not occupy the original bedroom of the Star Lord's Mansion, which was also tossed by a group of pirates.

His bedroom was a small two-story building in the style of a hexagonal pavilion in the original garden, which was originally the library of the Star Lord's Mansion.

In order to welcome Zhu Zhanji, all the books here were transferred, leaving only a few for him to pass the time.

Zhu Zhanji picked up a copy casually, and when he saw it, it turned out to be a Song Dynasty engraved book "Tokyo Chronicles". Of course, this Tokyo was not the footbasin Tokyo of later generations, but Kaifeng, the largest city at the time.

Raising the book in his hand, Zhu Zhanji said: "Look at what other books in the library pavilion are the only books of the previous dynasty, and bring them back to the Ming Dynasty." By the way, call Zhuang Jing in. ”

Although he made great contributions this time, Zhuang Jing still behaved very humbly in front of Zhu Zhanji, and when he met, he paid a big salute to pay respects, ignoring Li Liang's obstruction, and kowtowed three times.

"Weichen Zhuang Jing Dai Ji commanded the envoy to ask His Royal Highness."

This also made Yang Zhangde, who was standing on the side, pouted secretly, this guy really doesn't want any face! Anyway, he is also a fourth-grade official of the Ming Dynasty!

Zhu Zhanji knows very well that Ji Gang and Zhuang Jing are not good birds, and don't take their shamelessness as one thing.

"Zhuang Yanshi, please get up, take a seat." Zhu Zhanji put down the book in his hand and said with a smile: "This time, the army can completely suppress the Japanese invaders, and Zhuang has made great contributions. When he returns to Beijing, he should ask for credit for Zhuang and Ji Commander. ”

"Wei Cheng doesn't dare to take credit, this is the strategy of His Royal Highness and Commander Ji, and Wei Chen is just executing."

"Let's tell you all about your experiences after you arrived in Dongying, but you only exchanged letters, and you don't have an intuitive understanding of the local details."

Wait for Zhuang Jing to tell the story of his experience from going to sea and then to Izumo Province and being hooked up with the Kyogoku family.

Especially in the last stage, after they bewitched the Kyogoku to hold the post, they ventured to join the Japanese team, which is even more exciting.

Although he didn't dare to take credit for his words, he was afraid that Zhu Zhanji would forget these credits.

"Where is the Kyogoku Gang now?"

"Held in solitary confinement in a private house."

"If this person can be used by my Ming, I should keep him safe. However, this person dares to venture into danger alone, and he is also a vicious wolf, which can be used but not reused. This time against the Kyogoku family, he is a knife, and when the Kyogoku family finishes dealing with it, he will be sent to a corner casually and left to fend for himself. ”

Zhuang Jing said with a smile: "At this time, I already have a case with Commander Ji, and I will not leave any troubles. Your Highness, this time the army is dispatched, and the army is mobilized, if you return to the Ming Dynasty, wouldn't it be a pity......"

Zhu Zhanji glanced at Zhuang Jing obliquely, and Zhuang Jing's smile froze immediately. seemed to feel that everything in his heart had been seen through by Zhu Zhanji, and for a while, he didn't dare to say anything more.

Zhu Zhanji said at this time: "Zhuang has something to say. ”

Zhuang Jing didn't dare to play tricks, but he didn't want this opportunity to slip away in vain, hesitated for a moment, and said stubbornly: "Your Highness, Weichen gathered with all the Japanese in Tsushima Island this time, stayed in Tsushima Island for ten days, and also has a little understanding of the local area. This is the perfect time for me to make a move on Tsushima. ”

Zhu Zhanji glanced at Li Liang, Li Liang laughed knowingly, and said, "Zhuang Yanshi, do you think that His Royal Highness led the army to go out this time, just for this group of pirates?" The two ends of the head of the Tsushima Island Zong Zhenmao provided assistance to the Japanese Kou, of course, they could not escape the sanctions of our Ming Dynasty. ”

Using Li Liang to suppress Zhuang Jing's arrogance, Zhu Zhanji said again: "Tsushima Island is already in my plan, so Zhuang Don't worry about it." But since you have lived there for ten days, you will tell Feng Qianhu and Jiang Qianhu about the situation on the island later. ”

These two people went to Zhu Zhanji's side with Yang Zhangde to serve as guards, because their strengths are different, and they are currently responsible for Zhu Zhanji's intelligence collection work.

Zhuang Jing knew them all, and nodded when he saw this. Zhu Zhanji said again: "You are more familiar with the leader of the Japanese Bandits, so in the past two days, I will first go to Huang Yuan and Huang Garrison to be responsible for the cleaning up of the Japanese Bandits, and identify all the leaders. ”

Zhuang Jing was still a little confused, why he had to check the information with two thousand households for a while, and then he had to cooperate with a garrison to clear out the widows.

When he got out of the small building, Jiang Wanli still had some incense with him, and couldn't help but remind him: "Lord Zhuang, Your Highness doesn't like to be played as a fool, don't test Your Highness again in the future." Otherwise, no amount of credit will keep your head. ”

Although it was a cold winter wax moon, the cold sweat of Zhuang Jing who said it in a sentence flowed down immediately.
