Chapter 296: The Idea of Feudal Overseas
"Since all of you Aiqing have agreed, let's take a look at these places!" Chongzhen stood up, pointed to the full map of the emperor behind him and said: "This is the map remade by the Ministry of Industry, referring to some map materials sent by the Portuguese, and now the land given to us by the Dutch is in this location, there is the old land of the Manchurian Sultanate, and the island next to it, from the data, they are all inhabited by barbarians, and the other two on the far right are also islands, and they are also inhabited by the Manchus, but this red-haired fan is cruel in nature, and the cruel killing in these lands is now the native barbarians. It's good for us to manage and develop! After speaking, Chongzhen circled the map with his hand and said, "These are the places!" ”
"These red-haired fans are interesting! The wild land is given to us, and the most prosperous area is still occupied by ourselves! Xu Guangqi said with a smile. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Son first! If this is for us Daming, it will be a headache, and the middle piece, there are many barbarians, and the Mataram Kingdom and the Wandan Kingdom will be tossed enough, which is not a good thing for my Daming! Sun Chengzong said with a smile.
"That's what the teacher said! Although the Mataram Kingdom and the Banten Kingdom are now fighting each other under the instigation of Hongmaofan, their unanimous enemy is Hongmaofan after all! Chongzhen nodded.
"If you have the general guidelines and policies, you will proceed according to what we talked about before, if it really doesn't work, then it doesn't matter if you exterminate the remaining thirty percent of the barbarians! In addition, if you have any other ideas, you can talk about it! Chongzhen continued.
After listening to this, everyone looked at each other, and finally Liu Hongxun said: "Your Majesty! Although there are a lot of people who originally belonged to my Ming Dynasty, but this has been gone for a long time, after all, there is a lack of a sense of belonging, Weichen thought that the implementation of management at the same time began to immigrate some people from the Ming Dynasty, such as from Fujian, Guangdong to immigrate to the past, now many people's ancestors are Fujian, Guangdong people immigrated to the past, so that they can get along and integrate more easily, after the situation is stable, we can immigrate from Shaanxi, Shanxi and other famine areas, In this way, it can also reduce the pressure on the imperial court, and it can also make the people's lives better! ”
"At the same time, you can bring some of our newly researched crops to the past, the profit of this rice, in my Ming Dynasty is two seasons a year, you can plant four seasons a year there, this increased production of food is very important for my Ming Dynasty, the disaster is still not good in the past three years, even if there are more new crops, the imperial court also buys grain from everywhere, but the overall situation is still not optimistic!" After listening to Liu Hongxun, Xu Guangqi added on the side.
"That's right! Xu Aiqing is right! This is important! Aiqing mentioned it very well! Chongzhen nodded and expressed his appreciation for Xu Guangqi's words, what Daming lacks most now is silver and food.
"Your Majesty! This is all done by ZTE Intelligence! Xu Guangqi said with a smile.
"Not bad! I have to reward Gonggong Zhu well! This time Zhongxingwei is also indispensable! Chongzhen nodded.
"Anything else? Go on! Chongzhen continued.
At this time, everyone looked at each other and discussed in a whisper, as if they wanted to say something and stopped, Chongzhen who saw it was itching in his heart, so he said: "You Aiqing can say whatever you want, don't hide it, if so, I will be angry!" ”
Everyone looked at each other, and in the end Sun Chengzong was pushed out, Sun Chengzong pondered for a while, and then said, "Your Majesty! In order to show that the court attaches great importance to this, the ministers have the courage to suggest that Your Majesty should seal a prince's fief to this new land, for three reasons, first, now the imperial court's move is also regarded as expanding the territory, and sending a prince over to show that the court attaches enough importance to this; Second, this suggestion is just thought of by the first minister and a few others, and now the problem of the royal family in the Ming Dynasty is becoming more and more serious, the specific micro ministers will not be detailed, Your Majesty also understands, now that there is a new land, the ministers want to transfer this problem to my Ming Dynasty, this move can be said to be beneficial to the court, but also to the people, of course, also conducive to the future development of the royal family! After Sun Chengzong finished speaking, he looked at Chongzhen cautiously.
After hearing this, Chongzhen smiled and said, "You Aiqing dare to think about it!" Very good! But you Aiqing put yourself in your shoes, if you are the prince of my Ming Dynasty, do you want to give up the prosperous Ming Dynasty and go to the wild land overseas? ”
"Your Majesty! Wechen dared to suggest that His Majesty relax the restrictions on the prince who was sealed overseas, and allow him to move freely in the fiefdom, and at the same time freely appoint local officials and even prepare for the army! This fiefdom is his kingdom! All he had to do was pay tribute to the imperial court every year! I believe that if you do this, it is still very attractive to the princes! Sun Chengzong thought for a while.
"Sun Shoufu! This is not the way to go! Aren't the lessons of the dynasties enough? Cheng Jiming objected, and Xu Guangqi, Liu Hongxun and Guo Yunhou also objected.
"Your Majesty!" Sun Chengzong looked at Emperor Chongzhen, and saw Emperor Chongzhen leaning on the dragon chair at this time, his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was thinking.
Not long after, Chongzhen opened his eyes and said, "It seems that the opinions of all Aiqing are not very unanimous!" But I thought it worked! Since you put it down, let it go thoroughly! ”
"But Your Majesty! This...... The others persuaded him.
Chongzhen waved his hand and said: "I know your Aiqing's concerns, it's nothing, you Aiqing, if my descendants are not able to hold this country and finally be returned by these princes who were sealed overseas to seize the country, then what does it matter, this country is still my Ming Dynasty's country, or my great-grandfather's country!" It's better than being taken by outsiders! Besides, isn't there a place near this fiefdom that is managed by the imperial court? No problem! If it works, then there is another piece of land that is larger than all the land in this whole area will be implemented according to this method, otherwise in such a big place, the pressure on the imperial court will be very great, and it is far overseas, as long as the imperial court manages this piece of land in the Central Plains, it will become, didn't the grandfather just hope that many princes would come to defend the imperial court? Now doing this can be regarded as a remembrance of the great grandfather! ”
"Your Majesty Shengming!" Sun Chengzong said.
Chongzhen said with a smile: "If it can go well, then many problems can be solved by the imperial court now!" In this case, you will make a bill, and then release it at the court meeting, see if the other ministers have anything to add, if not, pass it, and then screen a capable prince to come out, summon the Beijing Division, and then follow me to sail out to sea with the Ming Navy! Create a new world for my Daming! ”
A few other people wanted to say something, but it was difficult to say anything when they saw that Chongzhen had made up his mind, "Sun Shoufu, I don't know if your suggestion is a blessing or a curse for my Daming!" Liu Hongxun sighed
"How do you know if you don't fight?" Sun Chengzong looked at Liu Hongxun and said, "Besides, do you have a better way to solve this royal problem?" Now these problems are all problems that I can't wait to solve, and this is an opportunity! On the other hand, with His Majesty Shengming, as well as you and I waiting in the court, can they make any big waves? ”
