Annam, Thanh Hoa City.

This trip to Beijing is thousands of miles away, and the good news is sent out, and I am afraid that it will be two months later at the earliest to get a reply from the imperial court.

At this time, the importance of Zhu Qiyu is reflected.

He first mobilized a number of officials and scholars from Yunnan, Guangxi, and other places, and appointed them to various parts of Annan to temporarily take over civil affairs.

In terms of the army, all of them were controlled by Zhang Fu, and Li Kechang, the former king of Annan Guogong, assisted by it.

In addition to some major measures, such as how to choose the chief official after Annan's change to Jiaozhi, it is necessary to wait for the imperial court to make an order.

For the rest, Zhu Qiyu made clear arrangements on the spot.

After all, he has been in charge of the country for two years, and he has a lot of experience in governing the world.

When the people of Annam first learned that it was occupied by the Ming army, they were shocked and frightened.

In the past, when Annan changed to Jiaozhi, the officials of the Ming Dynasty were not friendly to the Annan people, and even had a feeling that the hearts of non-our races would be different.

However, this time I personally experienced that after the officials of the Ming Dynasty took over, not only did they not exploit and exploit, but instead reduced taxes and redistributed the fields, which made their attitude change immediately.

Occasionally, some places were controlled by the original nobles, ready to resist a wave, and before Zhang Fu could send troops, Li Kechang wiped out people.

He is now determined to mess with Da Ming, and he said that he would give a national *** title, who dares to do things, so that he can't be a national prince, it is tantamount to killing his father's hatred and taking his wife's hatred!

Zhu Qiyu was in the middle of the plan, and all matters were carried out in an orderly manner, and the next step was to contact the Zhancheng State to discuss issues related to port transfers, trade, tariffs, etc.

The Ming Dynasty had just opened the sea ban, and at this time it was necessary to expand the shipping lanes and find trade routes.

Chen Ying hurriedly entered: "Your Highness, Fan Jinglong is back!"

Zhu Qiyu was a little surprised and asked, "So fast?"

According to the distance, Fan Jinglong and his entourage arrived in Champa and then returned to Thanh Hoa, and it would take at least a month to go back and forth.

It's only been half a month, why did you come back?

Chen Ying smiled bitterly, "Something happened!"

"Oh?"

Zhu Qiyu's face changed, and he asked, "What's wrong?"

Chen Ying beckoned people and brought Fan Jinglong in.

Zhu Qiyu was surprised to find that the person was carried in.

"This person was found by a mountain hunter, and it is said that he fell from a cliff and hung on a tree before he picked up a life."

Fan Jinglong raised his head effortily and said weakly, "Your Highness, Your Highness......

Zhu Qiyu frowned and asked, "What happened?"

"The king of Champa sent troops to intercept him halfway, and we resisted to the death, but because we were outnumbered, in the end, we finally ......."

"What did you say?"

Zhu Qiyu was shocked, the king of Zhancheng actually intercepted and killed his own father halfway?

Fan Jinglong nodded effortlessly and said, "The old King of Zhancheng was beheaded, Pan Peng...... He also died, and the subordinate fought and retreated, but was forced to the precipice......

Zhu Qiyu darkened his face and asked, "What about Mahagui and Princess Xuanzhen?"

"Mahagui protected the old king of Zhancheng, was stabbed several times in his body, and was killed on the spot, Princess Xuanzhen was taken captive, and her life and death are unknown......

Chen Ying stepped forward and said, "Your Highness's previous worries were correct, in order to secure this position, the King of Champa didn't even let go of his own father and uncle, it's really fucking inhuman!" ….

Zhu Qiyu didn't think about these things in his heart, the king of Zhancheng arranged an ambush for the throne, no matter how bloody it was, it was their internal strife, but what Fan Jinglong and Pan Peng represented was the Ming Dynasty, and they even dared to kill the Ming officials, what does this mean?

Could it be ...... This person forgot his entrustment and did not reveal his identity in time?

"Did you identify yourself when you met the soldiers and horses of the city?"

Fan Jinglong's face was aggrieved, and he said, "Having said it, Master Pan and I identified ourselves on the spot, saying that we are officials of the Ming Dynasty and are ordered to occupy the city

But they don't listen at all!"

At this time, Chen Ying couldn't help but say, "In this way, isn't the king of Champa going to rebel?"

Things came to such a point, Zhu Qiyu didn't dare to make decisions on his own, so he ordered to go down and summon Zhang Fu, Mu Bin and others to come to Qinghua to discuss together.

After all, when it comes to diplomacy between the two countries, if it is not handled properly, the consequences will be serious.

However, before the people could discuss the result, the people of the city came to occupy the city.

Everyone knows this person, it is the Van Lai who can speak Chinese.

"The commander of the left sentry camp of the Champa State, Fan Lai, meet His Royal Highness the King of the Great Ming Dynasty!"

Chen Ying stepped forward and asked, "Van Lai, how will I treat you in the city of Zhancheng?"

Van Lai replied, "Grace and rebuild!"

"Now that you know, why did you, the king of Champa, send troops to intercept and kill my envoys of the Ming Dynasty?"

Van Lai hurriedly said, "There must be a misunderstanding in this, His Majesty Mahapancha sent his subordinates here just to explain the situation."

"Humph!" Chen Ying snorted coldly and said, "Tell me, what's the situation?"

Van Lai took out a letter and said: "There are bandits rampant in the territory of Zhancheng, accidentally injured the envoys of the Celestial Empire, and also kidnapped Princess Xuanzhen, after His Majesty Mahapancha learned of this, he immediately sent troops to clear it and rescued Her Royal Highness the Princess.

Chen Ying took the letter and brought it to Zhu Qiyu.

After Zhu Qiyu opened it, he glanced at it, and then said, "You mean that the people who blocked the road and intercepted my Ming envoys and the old king of Zhancheng were just bandits?"

Van Lai said, "Exactly!"

"Van Lai!"

Zhu Qiyu put the letter aside and said, "Since the beginning of the counterattack on Annan in Zhancheng, you have been with us, from a low-level officer to the commander of the left sentry battalion.

"Your Highness's kindness, your subordinates will always remember it!"

"In that case, tell me the truth, are those people really bandits?"

A cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but he insisted, "It's a bandit!"

Zhu Qiyu had a gloomy look on his face and said, "If it is really a bandit, I can not pursue it, but in this national letter, it only says that the two countries have good relations, and they do not talk about the port and trade-related matters that have been agreed in advance, why is this?"

"This ......"

Van Lai hesitated for a moment and said, "Please forgive your sins, these ...... The subordinates don't know about it......"

Zhu Qiyu said coldly: "Since this is the case, come here, detain this person for the time being, and wait for when the king of Zhancheng has fulfilled his promise, and then let him go!"

"Your Highness, don't!"

Van Lai was shocked, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed like pounding garlic.

Chen Ying said with a look of disdain: "It's just to keep you for a while, and I won't treat you badly, what are you afraid of?"

"No...... No, I can't!"

Van Lai looked anxious and said, "My father, mother, wife, and children are all in Champa, and if I can't return in time, they will ...... And they ......."
