These days, Shen Cong has been staying in Zhu Di's palace, although Zhu Di is still quite polite to himself, but there is no respect between words. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Shen Cong hasn't done much these days, because he doesn't know why Yanwang Zhu Di watches himself very closely, and someone will follow him every day, and Shen Cong is particularly tired of this kind of surveillance.

So I didn't bother to go out, I just ate and drank every day, and then I made plans for the future business and the future.

It has been a few years since I came to this ancient period, and I have changed from a teenager to a young man, and modern times are the era of highly developed science and technology, and this ancient era is a typical era when agriculture and cottage industry occupy the vast majority.

So in such a cottage industry occupies the vast majority of the environment, this business is very difficult to do, after all, the imperial court is very suppressive of commerce, although the Ming Dynasty has a broad market, but it is really difficult to have a breakthrough in commerce.

"It's really not suitable for business in a place with a lot of people, but a place with few people can develop business." Shen Cong smiled bitterly, he really wanted to do something in Daming, but the policy restricted him.

After thinking about it, Shen Cong finally decided to set his sights on foreign countries, since the Ming Dynasty could not do it for the time being, then it could only turn abroad, after all, it was still a long time before Zhu Yuanzhang returned to the west, and he couldn't spend it in a hurry.

Looking for someone to ask for a few maps, and asked for a few foreign history books, Shen Cong began to understand the history of these countries one by one.

In the current era (1374), the surrounding countries are Japan, Korea, and Southeast Asia, and South Asia is India.

"What dynasties are Korea and Japan at the moment?" Shen Cong's eyes first looked at North Korea and Japan, after all, these two countries were the closest to his ports.

Open the history books and start looking at North Korea.

"Oh, it's the last days of the Goryeo Dynasty." Shen Cong looked at the history books, combined with the history in his heart began to locate the history of North Korea at this moment, then the name of the Goryeo stick should also be combined with this historical period, after all, for many Chinese, Goryeo is really too famous, as far as Shen Cong himself is concerned, his understanding of Korean history is mainly based on the Goryeo Dynasty.

Goryeo, also known as the Goryeo Dynasty and Wang's Goryeo, is one of the ancient countries of the Korean Peninsula, founded in 918, and the capital of Goryeo is Kaegyong (now Kaesong, North Korea). The territory roughly corresponded to the south-central part of the present-day Korean Peninsula, and the north expanded from the Taedong River to the banks of the Yalu River in the 12th century.

"Goryeo's ambition is not small." Seeing this, Shen Cong sneered.

He once read a wild history, that is, in order to deal with the Mongol Empire when the Goryeo Dynasty faced the Mongol Empire, Goryeo sent a lot of women to the Mongol Dynasty, so the Goryeo Dynasty is also known as a country preserved by women.

The Goryeo Dynasty received its power from the Silla Dynasty, which in turn dates back to the Tang Dynasty.

Shen Cong threw off the useless information and directly began to understand Goryeo at this moment.

Goryeo at this moment is the period of the descendants, and the period of the descendants began with Wonjong of Goryeo, during the reign of Wonjong of Goryeo, the Yuan dynasty tried to use Goryeo as a springboard to conquer Japan. Goryeo was forced to provide the Yuan Dynasty with troops, ships, grain, and grass in preparation for the conquest of Japan, which increased taxes. In 1274, Wonjong of Goryeo died and was succeeded by King Chungyeol, who proposed to Kublai Khan to marry a Mongolian princess, and married Kublai Khan's eldest daughter, the eldest princess of Qi, Kudulu Jieli, who was lost and became a concubine of the Yuan Dynasty.

With the decline of the Yuan Dynasty's national power and its inability to protect Goryeo, from 1349 onwards, Goryeo was frequently attacked by the Japanese invaders, and King Chungding, who was the king of Goryeo at the time, was very dissatisfied with the rule of the Yuan Dynasty.

King Chungding's uncle, King Wang Qi of Gangneung, was very appreciated by Emperor Yuan Shun, and was a concubine of the Yuan Dynasty.

"Then the current Goryeo should be the era of King Gongsu of Goryeo." Shen Cong quickly figured it out, because he knew that the Goryeo Dynasty had collapsed in 1392.

According to Shen Cong's knowledge, in 1382, the Ming Dynasty ordered the late Yuan to surrender Hu Badu to the Eastern Jurchen region, to appease the local Jurchens, etc., in August of the following year, Hu Badu led his troops to Duanzhou, the Jurchen leader Jin Tong Buhua surrendered, Goryeo ordered its general Li Chenggui to lead the troops to attack, the two sides fought in Jizhou Ping, and the Jurchens were defeated and retreated.

In the twenty-first year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1388), he sent a document to inform Goryeo that the king of Goryeo, Wang Yu, and Cui Ying, the servant of his subordinates, conspired to attack Liaodong, and Li Chenggui, who was guarding the door, opposed it to no avail.

After reading the history of Goryeo, Shen Cong's heart also knew a lot.

The fall of Goryeo must have something to do with the Ming Dynasty, after all, Goryeo actually wanted to attack Liaodong.

"In the last days, the king was tyrannical and the people were struggling to make a living, but for merchants, it was a good opportunity to make money." Shen Cong was keenly aware of the mystery: "After the Goryeo Dynasty, there should be a new dynasty, if this new dynasty is established, and he will fund and help the new dynasty, then the Shen family can also take this opportunity to establish their position in the Joseon Dynasty." ”

Shen Cong looked at the map and fell into deep thought, now that the tile spur has the strength to contain the Zhu family with the help of the Shen family, what about one more Joseon dynasty?

Shaking his head, Shen Cong still stopped this bold decision, this is a traitorous act, at present, it is better to make money from the North Koreans first, if Zhu Yuanzhang presses himself step by step in the future, then as a last resort, he will fund North Korea a little, so that they can contain Zhu Yuanzhang's energy.

"After Goryeo, it should be the Li Dynasty." Squinting his eyes, Shen Cong thought carefully: "It seems that after the Li Dynasty replaced Goryeo, the country was named Korea, and Ning and others played the Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang ruled, and Zhu Yuanzhang chose the new country name as Korea." ”

"In this way, Zhu Yuanzhang and the Li dynasty should have a hand." Shen Cong scratched his head and thought again: "If Zhu Yuanzhang really intervenes, then it seems that there is nothing wrong with interfering in the Li dynasty of North Korea." ”

"Then let's march to Goryeo." Shen Cong finally raised his hand and wrote these words on the paper.

Note: North Korea, the name of the ancient country built by Jizi
