The news of Java's declaration of war on the Ming Dynasty also reached the capital at this moment, and Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but laugh when he learned about it. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Facing a group of cabinet officials, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but say: "I didn't expect that this Javanese Congress would directly declare war on my Ming Dynasty, whether he is arrogant or deliberately bluffing to promote his national prestige, since he has declared war, we can't be perfunctory, we should take out all the military strength of the Ming Dynasty to fight a decisive battle with this Javanese country, and don't return to the division if it is uneven!" ”

As soon as Zhu Youxiao said this, Qian Qianyi stood up, and directly bowed his hand: "Your Majesty, Java is just a small country, a barbarian state, because the crown prince was beheaded by my Ming Dynasty, so its king has to declare war, it is nothing more than to use this to calm the hearts of the people in the country, if Your Majesty makes a big move for this, it is just a waste of people's wealth, so the ministers have the courage to admonish, and take a blind attitude to the rebellious actions of this small overseas country. ”

Zhu Youxiao didn't expect that Qian Qianyi would directly stand up against his will, so although he was a little displeased with his point of view, he was also a little surprised.

And at this time, Li Mingrui also stood up: "Your Majesty, Weichen doesn't dare to agree with the words of Qian Ge Lao, no matter whether this Java country really wants to invade my Daming, as long as he has declared war, it is to provoke the dignity of my Daming, and it is to ignore my position as the suzerainty of the Ming Dynasty, and he should be punished!" What's more, Your Majesty has already made it clear that Java is the territory of my Ming Dynasty, and the indigenous Du family of Java is a generation of robbers, driving and slaughtering our Ming overseas people, stealing my Java territory for many years, and now is the best time to restore its Han family system. ”

Li Mingrui's words were also in line with Zhu Youxiao's intentions, but Zhu Youxiao did not make an obvious statement, but he didn't expect that Qian Qianyi would stop his military strategy.

But Qian Qianyi didn't notice the displeasure in Zhu Youxiao's heart at this time, he had already made up his mind to fight with Li Mingrui, so he completely ignored the will of the above, so he directly continued to retort: "Your Majesty, please be careful, my Ming Dynasty has now eliminated the external troubles, Jiannu and the Mongolian generation can no longer pose a threat to my Ming Dynasty, the giant of the sea frontier Zheng Zhilong has also fled to the East, and after the westward expedition, he recovered Hamiwei, but the military expenditure in the Guannai is high, and the collusion between officials and businessmen has caused the people's lives to be miserable. If it is not contained, I am afraid that a large number of landless people in the entire Ming Dynasty will do extraordinary things because they cannot survive. ”

"Qian Ge Lao is too alarmist, when will the external troubles be completely eliminated, Jiannu and Mongolia still have the strength to fight, and they are both wolf ambitions, how to relax their vigilance, in addition, how the so-called collusion between officials and businessmen is related to the misery of the people's lives, not to mention that His Majesty has been exempted from forced labor and most of the taxes, even the funds for the war in these years are mostly from the royal sales and commercial tax collection, Your so-called collusion between officials and businessmen not only solved the problem of the treasury eating grain, but also avoided the fact that the imperial court apportioned the people because of the war, so it can be seen that you are talking nonsense! ”

Qian Qianyi's eyes were still focused on Guannai, as a conservative official, he didn't seem to care too much about foreign expansion, so he still wanted Zhu Youxiao to solve the problem of unclear domestic officials and businessmen, and Li Mingrui's words were undoubtedly refuting Qian Qianyi's dissatisfaction with the dominance of the commodity economy by court officials.

Zhu Youxiao saw that the two of them were about to quarrel about whether the court officials were involved in commercial activities, so he coughed a few times and said: "Shut up for me first, now is not the time to agree on these things, the war in Java must be fought, whether he declares war or not, I will never allow a regime that hates the Han people to exist, even if he is at the ends of the earth, I will completely eradicate him, this is called the death of those who follow me and those who oppose me, understand?" ”

"However, Your Majesty, if you win the war, it is good, if you lose, I will spend a lot of money and food in the treasury in vain, and at the same time encourage the arrogance of some corrupt people, so I hope that Your Majesty will think twice, do not use military force, since ancient times, the virtuous and virtuous monarch must not be tolerant and prosperous", Qian Qianyi thought that what he said was very reasonable, but unexpectedly, his sentence of "poor soldiers" directly touched Zhu Youxiao's scale.

Zhu Youxiao immediately stood up and scolded Qian Qianyi angrily: "Qian Qianyi! Get out of here with me! ”

Qian Qianyi was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect His Majesty to suddenly come to such a sentence, which made him very embarrassed, and at this time, Xu Xianchun, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, ran over, and only came in directly after seeing Zhu Youxiao nodding his head: "Your Majesty, I just got the news from the front, the indigenous people of Java have once again begun to massacre my Han people in Java in the name of declaring war on the Ming Dynasty, the first brigade of the South China Sea Fleet has rushed directly to Java first, and Gu Sanmazi, the chief officer of the South China Sea Fleet, asked Your Majesty how to deal with the massacre in Java." ”

"It's despicable! This Java country wants to declare war with my Ming Dynasty on the surface, but does not directly challenge my Ming army, but points his swords and guns at these innocent Han people, and it is also a shame that these Han people are also serving his Java country, Your Majesty, now that my Ming intends to control the Java country, I can't sit back and watch these Han people being slaughtered by the natives of Java! Wechen dared to suggest that His Majesty immediately take action to destroy the country of Java! ”

As soon as Li Mingrui saw His Majesty, whose expression suddenly became more hideous and terrifying because he knew that Java had slaughtered Han people, he immediately seized the opportunity to step forward and bow directly.

Seeing this, Yang Sichang also stood up and suggested that Zhu Youxiao directly eliminate the Java State.

Zhu Youxiao was not disgusted by the behavior of Li Mingrui and Yang Sichang for a while, but was even more excited because of this, and couldn't help waving his sleeves: "According to what you said, since the country of Java has declared war on our Ming Dynasty, we will also declare war on him, and the Ministry of War immediately came up with a plan, I want to see this country of Java disappear from the map in the shortest possible time, and in order to minimize the losses of the Han people." ”

"Your Majesty! The country of Java is just a disease of scabies, strengthen the defense around it, and send an envoy to warn and condemn it, there is really no need to make such a big move, I am a state of etiquette, and I should influence the barbarians from all directions with benevolence and virtue, so that they can return to their hearts, and the sword soldiers will only cheapen the corrupt criminals! ”

Qian Qianyi was completely stunned at this time, and when he saw Li Mingrui directly asking Zhu You to proofread the Java country to destroy the country, he couldn't help but stand up, and knelt down directly again: "Weichen has the courage to impeach Li Mingrui, a cabinet scholar, for his ill-intentioned intentions, and for his own selfishness, he is trying to trap His Majesty in unkindness and injustice, please punish this person severely!" ”
