Chapter 842: The Glory of the Sun That Never Sets
Huang Sheng came to Daming step by step, from a cloth cloth to a nine-grade master book level by level, so that when the four grades of soldiers were prepared, he also had a unique face to participate in the imperial examination.
Then he entered the Hanlin Academy as a scholar as a scholar as the champion of the dynasty, not only won the marquis and duke of the Ming Dynasty with military merits, but also became a king with a different surname, and finally became the king of "Nanming".
When the Ming Dynasty was broken by the thieves who took the capital in one fell swoop, the "Southern Ming" and the Ming Dynasty announced their unification, and Huang Sheng announced that he would send troops to fight the thieves to recapture the capital as the proud son of the new Ming Empire.
In the face of many civil and military forces, Huang Sheng also gave everyone some reassurance, he said: "All of you Aiqing are the ministers of the humerus of the Ming Empire, and the north of the territory of the Ming Dynasty will include Lake Baikal, that is, the North Sea, which extends to the Arctic Ocean.
The west side will sweep through the Uighurs, Mongols, Tatars, and Turks to expand the territory of the Ming Dynasty to 500 miles west of Almaty, and the south side is known to have all the continents there are already completely Ming territory, and the next step is to take all the islands.
If there is a sea in the east, will it stop the Han people? No, the Japanese kingdom will be wiped out soon, and the next step will be to cross the Pacific Ocean to the east and take the entire American continent.
The sun never sets on the Ming Empire, how vast it is, such a large land area, and how many officials are needed, I hope that you will look at the world and reopen the ......territory for the Ming Dynasty."
This is akin to an inaugural impromptu speech, which was commonplace in later generations and should be unique in this era.
The officials of the Daming Hanlin Academy, who are in charge of literature and history, are excited, they are trembling by the territory that the new Ming Empire is about to have, and they are stimulated by the heroic words of the Zhongxing Emperor.
The Ming Dynasty heard the voice of the Emperor Zhongxing, and knew that from now on, the Ming Empire would continue to expand its territory, and there were many officials needed for large places and large populations, which meant that as long as everyone worked hard, opportunities were everywhere.
The military, civilians, and officials were all passionate, "Long live, long live!" The sound of the mountain resounded in the sky, and at this moment everyone was looking forward to the coming glory of the Ming Dynasty.
In the evening, the main hall in the backyard of Nanwang Huangjiawan Island Mansion was brightly lit, and there were many kinds of wine and delicacies.
Huang Sheng, the "king", finally saw Chongzhen, the "emperor", again, but the two changed positions, and Chongzhen has not yet adapted to the fact that he has now become the king of letters, and sometimes he calls himself me.
During the day, the scene of hundreds of civil and military officials kneeling in the port to greet Nanwang Mountain and shouting long live Chongzhen had already learned through Wang Chengen's mouth, and also knew that the farce of the ministers to show their swords and force Huang Sheng to accept the throne by killing themselves.
Now that the yellow robe of the Southern King has become a fait accompli, Chongzhen knows that he is the first prince of the new Ming Empire, and he has to participate in the battle to recapture the capital and eliminate the thieves.
He had imagined a variety of possibilities, but he didn't expect this result, and he was a little uneasy when he was invited to the banquet by Huang Sheng in the evening.
Several examples of emperors who were forced to abdicate the throne died after drinking the wine of the superior emperor came to mind, can this wine be drunk?
Wang Chengen, Cao Huachun, Liu Guozheng, Li Xihan and others were all standing outside, and when they saw Chongzhen, they all smiled and hugged their fists and saluted.
When he came to the main hall, Chongzhen saw his beloved daughter looking at him with a smile, and then saw the man who took away his family's country.
"His Royal Highness King Xin, I haven't seen you for many years and still walk like flying!" Huang Sheng saw Chongzhen, who was standing tall and maintaining his last dignity, smiled and took the initiative to greet him.
It stands to reason that the prince should give a salute when he sees the emperor, and it is not an exaggeration to kneel, but Chongzhen can't do such an action, he didn't know how to face Huang Sheng for a while, and he was stunned in place.
Huang Sheng didn't mind these false courtesies at all, and warmly took Chongzhen's hand and said:
"Come on, come on, Your Highness and I don't need to be polite to drink and catch up today, Your Highness don't have any worries, you are not Li Yu, the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and I am not Zhao Kuangyi of Song Taizong, the small-bellied Song Taizong is destined not to destroy the pride of Liao and swallow Western Xia, this is the character that determines fate."
Broken by Huang Sheng's words, Chongzhen blushed a little, and said: "I ......, this king actually wanted to have a good chat with His Majesty, His Majesty invited this king to drink is a good intention, where will this king have any concerns." ”
"Since you and I both have the heart to get drunk, what are you waiting for, what are you doing standing stupidly, pouring wine!"
One is his beloved father, the other is his admired husband, Kun Xing saw that the two of them were galloping thousands of miles, and Huang Sheng suddenly recalled the reality for a while.
"Twenty years of wind and rain in a flick of your fingers, when you first saw King Xin, you were a young man in his prime, I didn't expect to see you today, you are still two years old, you have gray temples, come, a toast to the years that have passed in a hurry."
Huang Sheng's words made Chongzhen sigh, he drank the wine in the cup and sighed softly: "This king has been thinking about it for seventeen years, and he doesn't dare to cross the thunder pond half a step all day long, but it's a pity that the country is still in such a trouble, I'm ashamed!" ”
"What's the point of success or failure? King Xin is still young, and there is time to see how heroic the Daming Society of Zhongxing is, and you will have the opportunity to cross the ocean to see our Daming land tens of thousands of miles away. ”
Chongzhen's eyes lit up, and he wondered: "Does this king really have such a chance?" ”
"Come, come, have another drink, I said, you are the king of Da Ming Xin, you are free, you can go anywhere you want, see any beautiful scenery you want to see, you still have to live well, live a happy life, this is not in vain I bothered to save your life."
Chongzhen suddenly came from sadness and cried, crying heartbreakingly, and the flustered Kun Xing was at a loss for a while.
Huang Sheng said: "Let him cry, he is sad in his heart, and if he doesn't let him vent, he will be sick." ”
After a long time, Chongzhen, who gradually calmed down, let Kun Xing wait to wipe away his tears, he picked up his wine glass and said:
"Your Majesty took the king's great Ming country but saved the king and the king's family, and the king didn't know whether to hate or be grateful. It is useless to say more about the matter at this point, this king will live well, if the people of the Ming Dynasty can really be rich and healthy, this king will sincerely thank His Majesty for the grace of regeneration. ”
"Hahaha, it's not at all possible to take the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty is mine, and the King of Faith is also hundreds of millions of Han people, and I don't change the name of the country just to prosper the Ming Dynasty. I am only satisfied with the prosperity and well-being of my people, and I want to make the Ming Dynasty an empire on which the sun never sets, the most powerful super empire in the world. ”
"Will my Da Ming really have that day?"
