The ministers misunderstood the meaning of Emperor Fulin, and thought that they had held a half-day meeting and were busy with a lot of work, but Zuihou was about to "become nothing", and they all spoke out to persuade him, and he seemed a little chaotic for a while.

"Ladies and gentlemen, when did I say that I was going to repeal the ban?" Fu Lin stopped everyone's noise with his words, glanced at Tuhai and Zhekune, and then said:

"But you have to come up with a way, how can our DPRK enforce the ban, and how can North Korea abide by the law."

……

Continue to be silent - the emperor can't help it, and the ministers are not supernatural, how can there be a way?

"Huang Ama, the sons have a plan, maybe it will work." At the critical moment, I have to help this little kid who has crossed over to solve your difficulties.

Hongyi was ready to make a decisive statement, just in front of more than a dozen important cadres to establish his prestige. Originally, doing this in front of the emperor was a bit of a bad idea, but who made you unable to solve my problem, then I will go out myself.

"Okay, I and the ministers will listen to you!" Fu Lin actually came to such a sentence, in his own understanding, now Xuan Ye has something to say, and he can be trusted. But in the eyes of everyone, it is equivalent to saying that the emperor is absolutely obedient to the little guy!

"Xie Huang Ama! Erchen thought that since he couldn't help it, he might as well let it go! "Hongyi echoes loudly!

"Put?" Even the emperor, everyone was amazed.

"Nonsense! How can I put it? This military item must be banned! "Fulin was the first to express strong opposition! In fact, he knew very well that with Xuan Ye's current mind. would never be such a mindless "nonsense", but the surprise in the eyes of the ministers just now also reminded him that I am the emperor, and the danger of the courtiers being high and overpowering the lord is the same. scolded, this is called being positive and suppressed, and giving some advice to the younger son who is becoming more and more proud.

"The emperor calmed his anger and allowed his ministers to elaborate." Hongyi knelt decisively, but still straightened his stubborn little head.

"You may elaborate, it's not right—I won't spare you!" Fu Lin did not give his youngest son face in front of many courtiers. Despite your recent favor from God. But after all, you are only a prince, and in front of me, the emperor, you must bow your head!

"Huh! Thank you, Emperor Amalon! At this time, Hongyi knew the mood of the young emperor who was less than twenty years old: with the knowledge of later generations, he was now increasingly demonstrating the so-called superb political wisdom. In this case. Take the initiative to give the emperor a chance to reprimand one or two. That's a good thing, so as not to cause yourself a lot of trouble.

"What Erchen said is by no means to let go of military supplies. Contrary. The DPRK should survey and formulate the "Munitions Regulations" at an early date, and not only control the munitions items, but also firmly control the various "goods and resources on which the war and strategy depend," strictly prohibit and control their outflow, and absolutely not let them go unchecked. Hongyi still started with "forbidden", so that the resistance is less.

"The material resources on which the war and strategy depend...... Strategic goods? Fulin grabbed the new word he was interested in, repeated it, and wisely "omitted and merged" it.

"Emperor Ama Shengming! The term strategic goods is really useful! Hongyi finally took great pains to say this important word commonly used in later generations through the mouth of the emperor.

"Well, don't be sycophant, let's get down to business first!" Although Fu Lin had a cold face, he was still very useful to his son in his heart.

"Erchen knows his mistake! Huang Ama, the sons of the world's things, can be roughly divided into royal things, military supplies, people's livelihood, and trade things. The things used by the emperor are enjoyed by the Son of Heaven, and naturally they should not be taken lightly; The things of military supplies involve war and strategy, and they are even more important; The use of people's livelihood is related to social security, and it is also the most complicated, and it needs to be paid more attention; The goods of trade are those that have a large surplus and are highly profitable after the above three items are eliminated. Hongyi knelt and looked at Fulin.

"Well, there's some truth. Get up and speak! Fu Lin still feels sorry for his son in the end, so he will find an opportunity to "rehabilitate".

"Xie Huang Ama! In the humble opinion of the ministers, everything involved in the royal service, military supplies, and people's livelihood can be counted as 'strategic materials' according to the Emperor's holy words, and they must not be exported from trade. However, in addition to strategic materials, other items with large output and sales, such as porcelain, tea, silk, etc., were flocked to by foreign vassals. We can keep enough of the common things that are necessary for the life of the people of the Great Qing Dynasty, as well as the precious and profane things, for our own use, and then allow the ban on trade. First, you can take its huge profits, and second, you can slack off the ambition of the subjects of the Korean monarch to play with it. Hongyi got up with the order, but his mouth was not idle.

"Well, in other words, in addition to the strategic materials that I have decided not to be allowed to be traded, Xuan Ye thinks that tea, porcelain, silk and other surplus things that the people can't use up can be allowed to trade?" Fu Lin asked patiently again.

"Emperor Ama Shengming."

"How to trade?"

"Emperor Ama, Korea must be tributary-oriented, so as to clarify the relationship between respect and inferiority, order, and vassals of the Celestial Empire. I still give back to nature, but only for the sake of the tree monarch and the grace of the tree. In addition, two ports were opened on the road and along the coast, and Korean merchants were allowed to trade back and forth. Hongyi diligently recalled the articles he saw later on the difference between the tributary system and tributary trade, and quoted the classic arguments from them.

"The example of tributary reward has existed in the previous Ming Dynasty, and it is only used in this dynasty. Xuan Ye wants to open another trade with North Korea, and it is also open by land and sea, what is the purpose? Fu Lin asked.

"Huang Ama, the tribute reward cannot be abolished, this is because the Korean vassal country, if you don't pay tribute, how can you respect the Heavenly Dynasty? This is also upheld. But it is also imperative to open up trade. If the ban of our dynasty is strictly enforced, and no goods are allowed to be traded privately, and only the imperial court rewards them, even if they are generously rewarded, the Korean monarchs and ministers will not be enough. What's more, the previous tributes have only been widowed with me, and the court has not gained much. But every time you give back, it is extraordinarily gracious, and even the Emperor Ama didn't you say that 'the gifts of the Celestial Empire and the envoys are all from the people, and they are really afraid of disturbing the people'? That's why you've made it down again and again, and that's why you have the regulations that Hu Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites just mentioned. But even so, it is generous. However, it is difficult to fill the gap between the selfish desires of North Korean businessmen. Hongyi first wooed the two Manchu Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, and when he saw that they were all nodding, he continued.

"What's more, I am the Heavenly Empire, regardless of the Western vassal states, such as Korea, Ryukyu and other vassal countries to and fro to pay tribute, but the Chinese vassal states of the past dynasties are far more than that. But that was because the remnants of the Southern Ming Dynasty were not extinguished, and the Qing Dynasty was cut off from many subject countries. In time, the Qing Dynasty will have far more vassal states than the previous dynasties! Hongyi only named the two subject states under the Ministry of Rites, deliberately ignoring the so-called "subject states" under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Court of the time, including Tibet, Huijiang, Outer Mongolia, Inner Mongolia, Gurkha, Kazakhstan, Nepal, Sikkim, Bhutan, Kokand, and Russia. Thereinto. Moxi Mongolia and Mobei Mongolia. As well as Uszang (Tibet), which should be counted as "native", and those other independent countries of later generations, Hongyi has other plans!

"What Lord Belle said is very true! Slave admiration! There is the emperor's grand plan. I will create a prosperous cause that has never been done before! The Ministry of Rites is full of Shangshu and Engde praised it in time. Lead everyone to kneel together. The little prince said his business scope. This kind of beautiful haode wishes, as the supervisor of Shangshu must take the lead!

"The Ryukyu Kingdom is commendable for its loyalty to the Qing Dynasty, and it can be an example for its subjects!" Tobe Shangshu and Jueluo Langqiu also echoed a sentence. And it's quite impressive!

It turned out that Ryukyu had a very close relationship with China since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty. After the establishment of the Qing Dynasty, the Ryukyu envoys came to China to pay tribute in the third year of Shunzhi (1646) and were personally received by the Shunzhi Emperor. At that time, the book of the Ministry of Rites was Jueluo Langqiu! From then on, the Ryukyu envoys continued to communicate with the Qing court. In 1662, the Qing court sent Zhang Xueli, the deputy commander of the military department, as an envoy to Ryukyu. Since then, every time a new king of the Ryukyus succeeds to the throne, there are Qing Dynasty envoys who go to canonize and celebrate. In 1663 (the second year of Kangxi) and 1756 (the twenty-first year of Qianlong), the Qing Emperor gave the seal to the king of the Ryukyus twice, and the seal given by Qianlong was written with the words "seal of the king of the Ryukyus". Until the 60s of the 19th century, Ryukyu always recognized itself as a vassal of the Qing Dynasty, and was more loyal and devoted to Korea than the first subject of the Qing Dynasty!

But then again, until the twelfth year of Shunzhi, the real "subject countries" of the Qing Dynasty were actually Korea and Ryukyu. Others, such as Annam and Siam, were not officially called ministers until the seventeenth year of Shunzhi, especially in the Kangqian era.

"Well, the lord of the Ryukyus is truly obedient, and I naturally won't treat him badly!" Fulin agreed with Lang Qiu with satisfaction.

Ryukyu! Ryukyu! I will not let you fall under the iron hooves of the Japanese in "my" history! Not only you, but everyone in the Chinese civilization circle, I want you to snuggle in the arms of China happily and harmoniously! Not to mention the sons and daughters of Macao, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Weihaiwei, Guangzhou Bay, Kowloon, and Luda (Lushun-Dalian) mentioned in Wen Yiduo's "Song of the Seven Sons"! - Xiao Xuanye secretly swears!

"Xuan Ye, you go on." Fu Lin noticed that the little guy opposite seemed to be a little distracted, so he reminded him kindly.

"Huh! When he heard that Emperor Ama had comforted the Ryukyu Kingdom, he was grateful for his loyalty to the country, which was naturally an example for North Korea, and should also be a model for all the subject countries of the Qing Dynasty in the future! Therefore, I wandered my mind and asked the emperor to forgive my sins! Hongyi hurriedly gathered his thoughts.

"It's okay, you can go on." Fu Lin was in a good mood when he thought that there was finally a subject country that satisfied him and put him there as a model.

"Huh! From this, Erchen thought that he could make a secret evaluation of the subject country, and divide it into three, six, nine, etc., in case of emergency. The Ryukyu Kingdom was loyal and could be a first-class country, and the imperial court could reward it with more rewards to declare its loyalty. However, if Korea is still the first and the second end, it will inevitably fall behind, and naturally it will not be able to benefit as much as the Ryukyus with a first-class subject country. Hongyi's heart suddenly moved, and he had a suggestion that he hadn't thought of before.

It is said that it was not expected, but in fact, this is similar to what allies, strategic partners, rogue states, terrorist sponsors, potential confrontational countries, and so on were later distinguished by the United States.

"That's a good idea! Enged, Hu Shi'an, your Ministry of Rites can do the same, but you have to keep it secret, just for my reference. "FLM adopted reasonable suggestions in a timely manner.

"Slave (minister) command!" The two scholars of the Ministry of Rites glanced at Xuan Ye very gratefully - although they were "secret", they got the opportunity to befriend the master, and the reason for exploiting the subject country, this can't forget the power of the little prince!
