With Qin Feng's permission, Wang He immediately led a group of people to rush to the treasury of Seoul, completely emptied the treasury, and went to Gyeongbokgung Palace by the way, and poured all the previous things in Gyeongbokgung Palace onto the ship.

Originally, Wang He wanted to grab some beauties to go back, but when he saw that the ship was about to be full of belongings, he decisively gave up the beauties.

In his naïve cognition, as long as there is money, what can't be bought?

But he still arrested a few high-ranking officials in North Korea, and he had to let them testify to his gang that they really didn't start the war lightly, and it was completely out of self-preservation!

Qin Feng looked at the gold and silver treasures of the slow boat, his eyes were round, and he was both a little excited and a little scared. I am afraid that the emperor's grandson will blame them for this and punish them for the crime of not obeying military orders.

In order to atone for his sins, Qin Feng could only order someone to register and make a register, and bring them all back to the capital to be disposed of by the imperial grandson.

As for the hundreds of thousands of taels of broken silver, they were forcibly divided by Wang He, and each of the accompanying soldiers was divided into ten taels, and the rest was privately swallowed by several officers.

According to Wang He, this kind of broken silver nobles are not looked down upon.

When Qin Feng thought of hundreds of thousands of taels of broken silver, his heart was beating a drum.

They are all soldiers recruited by the imperial grandson from Yiwu, and they have never seen such a big scene, let alone do anything to share the spoils in private.

But the atmosphere in the army has been stirred up by Wang He, if he doesn't agree to divide points in private, it is estimated that the entire Jinghai Navy will mutiny!

Qin Feng refused his share of the silver and slowly returned to Nanjing City with a warship full of treasures.

Along the way, he kept thinking about how to ask the imperial grandson for guilt, so that he never even slept peacefully. It wasn't until he saw the city wall of Nanjing that his hanging heart fell to the ground.

Finally brought everyone back, as for the rewards and punishments, they will be handed over to the emperor's grandson!

After Qin Feng put down the messenger who reported the news, he ordered everyone to disembark and form a team.

However, Wang He is not among them.

When Wang He was in Qin Feng's team, he was leading a few veterans from Xingwuwei to face the Korean king Yi Chenggui and his first minister, Zheng Daochuan.

Wang He frightened Li Chenggui's ears.

"When you see the imperial grandson, what do you know to say no?"

"I know, I know!"

"Your army came with good intentions to deliver the decree, but unexpectedly, our North Korea mistakenly thought it was a Haikou attack, and then your army counterattacked......"

"Everything is Xiao Wang's fault, and it has nothing to do with your army!"

Wang He saw that Li Chenggui was so cooperative, and the strength in his hand was a little smaller.

"What do you mean by the ship's treasure?"

"This is a gift from Xiao Wang to the imperial grandson, if the imperial grandson does not accept it, he will look down on Xiao Wang!"

Li Chenggui said with righteous indignation, as if Da Ming did not accept his gifts, he would want to die!

"Yes!"

"After entering the palace, I will say so, if you dare to say more useless, we will go to your North Korean waters every day in the future!"

Qin Feng finished the whole team on his side, and came over impatiently to urge.

"What's wrong?"

Wang He looked at Li Chenggui and said.

"It's okay!"

"The old guy is quite cooperative!"

Qin Feng nodded when he heard this.

"That's good!"

"It is estimated that the imperial grandson is coming over soon, hurry up and line up!"

"Okay!"

As Wang He returned to the team, there was a sound of gongs and drums at the end of the pier. The well-informed people of the capital, when they heard the sound of the gong opening the way, knew that a big man was coming.

Therefore, they stepped aside one step ahead.

After a short time, a group of cavalry came to clean the street, and after the idle people on the street were cleaned up, the car of the emperor's grandson and his majesty the emperor came slowly.

Behind the car of the emperor and the emperor's grandson, there were not only the accompanying Jinyi guards, but also the civil and military officials on foot.

In fact, they didn't have to come over, but they really couldn't believe it, and they didn't want to believe that Zhu Yunxi could arrest the king of Korea with only 10,000 Jing Navy.

If it was so easy to conquer Korea, Emperor Yang of Sui would not have had to sink into the sand, and Li Shimin would not have to lose his troops and generals, and it was not until the Li Zhi period that Goryeo was completely pacified.

In fact, Zhu Yunxi didn't believe it either, but he believed one thing, that is, his subordinates did not dare to lie about the military situation.

Since they said that they had captured the king of Joseon, they must have been arrested, at most because of a mistake.

When Qin Feng and the others saw the car of the imperial grandson, they immediately knelt on the ground and saluted.

"Meet His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness Chitose Chitose Chitose ......"

"Meet His Majesty the Emperor, long live Your Majesty!"

The civil officials were very disgusted when they heard Jing Haijun's visit, because they had placed the imperial grandson in front of His Majesty the Emperor.

In their eyes, this is a courtesy that no one wants!

If it weren't for the close relationship between His Majesty the Emperor and the Imperial Grandson, they would even feel that the Imperial Grandson had a disobedient heart and were anxious to urge His Majesty the Emperor to abdicate.

Lao Zhu was also a little unhappy, and he kicked his ass against his grandson.

"Why are you training your subordinates, can't we see such a big emperor?"

Qin Feng really didn't see it at first, he only saw the emperor's car after meeting the emperor's grandson.

But at this time, there was no way to explain it, so he could only kneel on the ground awkwardly and wait for the judgment of the imperial grandson.

Zhu Yunxi explained with a grin.

"Grandpa Huang, don't be picky, they didn't shout long live me and have already given you enough face!"

Lao Zhu secretly rolled his eyes when he heard this, and then crossed over to Jing Haijun and came to Jing Haijun.

"What's your name?"

"Back to Your Majesty, humble Qin Feng, now the deputy commander of the Jing Navy!"

"We just heard from the messenger who reported that you have captured the king of Joseon for us?"

"Back to Your Majesty, the lowly rank did arrest a Korean king, but I don't know if it's true!"

Seeing Qin Feng say this, Lao Zhu nodded with satisfaction.

"Bring someone up and show us!"

When Wang He heard this, he didn't wait for Qin Feng's orders, and took Li Chenggui's neck and led him to Lao Zhu.

"Your Majesty, this person is the king of Joseon, according to the captured Korean soldiers, this person is Li Chenggui himself, who disrespects the Ming Dynasty!"

"In order to prevent mistakes, the lowly post also arrested several North Korean ministers, all of whom were brought back by the lowly position!"

When Lao Zhu heard Wang He's words, he was displeased for a while.

This man's greed for merit is too anxious!

Let's not talk about whether the king of North Korea in front of him is real, even if it is true, he shouldn't carry it like a chicken, right?

People are the masters of a country, and they still have to be respected.

In other words, if you don't respect the lord of other countries, how can you respect the lord of the Ming Dynasty?

"You're also from the Jing Navy?"

Wang He heard the emperor ask this, and hurriedly said as if offering a treasure.

"Back to Your Majesty, I originally served in Xingwuwei for a thousand households, and I once followed Lord Lan of Liangguo to fight outside the fortress......"

Lao Zhu interrupted Qin Feng without waiting for him to finish.

"No wonder you don't understand the rules so much, it turns out to be the person who is the dog of Lanyu!"

"This ......"

No matter how stupid Wang He is, he knows that he has angered His Majesty the Emperor, but it is not for him to know why he has angered the Emperor.

Lao Zhu waved his hand at Wang He, and only then did he come to Li Chenggui after driving Wang He away.

"You are the king of Joseon, Yi Sung-gye?"

Hearing this, Li Chenggui hurriedly knelt down respectfully and saluted.

"Xiao Wang is indeed the king of Joseon, Lee Sung-gye!"

"His Majesty Emperor Meng Daming will not give up the name of North Korea!"

"Xiao Wang has always wanted to come to Daming to meet His Majesty the Emperor and thank His Majesty the Emperor for his great grace in giving the country name. Just because the mountains are high and the roads are far away, across the mountains and the sea, there has been no chance to see the sky! ”

"It just so happened that the emperor's grandson sent a decree to the foreign domain, and Xiao Wang repeatedly asked General Qin Feng, and General Qin Feng promised to bring Xiao Wang to worship His Majesty, and I hope that Your Majesty will forgive Xiao Wang for his presumptuous crimes!"

When Lao Zhu heard this, he patted Li Chenggui's shoulder and stroked his beard and laughed.

"Not bad!"

"It is indeed the capital of a hero, that is, he can speak, no wonder he can create the foundation of the king outside Liaodong!"

Li Chenggui won Lao Zhu's praise, and also reciprocated Lao Zhu's sycophancy.

"His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty is magnificent, thrifty and loving the people, benevolent and courteous, generous to the people, on the shore of the woods, loyal and benevolent, virtuous and able, and the rule of the Ming Dynasty ......"

"Seeing Your Majesty's face today is really a blessing for Cheng Gui's three lives, and it is also a blessing for my small North Korean country for all eternity!"

"I hope that Your Majesty will forgive Xiao Wang for his previous sin of disrespect, and let Xiao Wang continue to guard the border for the Ming Dynasty, serve Your Majesty with the attitude of the stars, and serve the Ming ......"

Li Chenggui's words were very humble, and his words of praising Lao Zhu used all the idioms he had learned in his life, and he was satisfied with the group of civil and military ministers behind Lao Zhu.

Although the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty have many problems, they are born with a kind of arrogant arrogance, and they like the feeling of the heavenly kingdom the most.

Li Chenggui's sycophant can be said to be very comfortable for the Ming monarchs and ministers.

Lao Zhu touched Li Chenggui's shoulder with a smile again, and then ordered someone to bring him into Honglu Temple to entertain him.

"Li Chenggui, you go to the pavilion with our Hongluqing to rest first, and we will ...... tomorrow I will hold a banquet in the palace to entertain you and other monarchs! ”

Lao Zhu rarely calls himself "I", but in the current situation, he always feels that the momentum is wrong if he doesn't need to call himself "I".

Li Chenggui saw Lao Zhu sympathetic to him so much, and he was so moved that he cried on the spot.

"Your Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, your kindness is as generous and benevolent as rumored, Xiao Wang is really grateful for the five guiltes, woo woo woo woo ......"

As soon as Lao Zhu saw Li Chenggui crying so miserably, he knew that this guy had suffered a lot of sins on the way here.

"Go ahead!"

"If you have suffered any grievances, I will definitely seek justice for you!"

When Li Chenggui heard this, he was so excited that he almost hugged the old emperor's thigh and cried. But when he thought that the old emperor was so old, and the world would sooner or later belong to the emperor's grandson, he couldn't help it.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Xiao Wang, goodbye, ......"

"Go for it......"

Lao Zhu waved his hand at Li Chenggui, and Li Chenggui cautiously followed Hongluqing to the pavilion to rest.

The boat ride had exhausted him to death, and now he just wanted to take a hot shower and find two maids to rub his shoulders.

I just don't know if Daming can provide these services......

Lao Zhu was sending Li Chenggui away, and he invited the ministers of North Korea to ask about it.

"Are you Zheng Daochuan?"

Zheng Daochuan once sent an envoy to the Ming Dynasty in June of the 23rd year of Hongwu to defend Yin Yi and Li Chu's accusations against Li Chenggui, and had a relationship with Lao Zhu.

Lao Zhu made it clear at that time that he would not interfere in Goryeo affairs and let the Goryeo people solve their own internal affairs.

It's just that Zheng Daochuan never thought that after three years, His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty would still remember himself.

"The foreign minister is Zheng Daochuan, thank you Emperor Ming for remembering the foreign minister......"

Lao Zhu smiled and nodded to Zheng Daochuan.

"You're a talent, of course I have to remember you!"

When Zheng Daochuan heard this, his face bloomed like a chrysanthemum with surprise.

This is a compliment from His Majesty, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and if he returns to North Korea in the future, he can go down in the history of North Korea!

With this praise alone, he can ensure that the family has no worries for three generations in North Korea.

Even if Li Chenggui wants to move himself in the future, he has to weigh this sentence!

"The foreign minister thanked His Majesty for his praise to the foreign minister, and the foreign minister ...... The minister was so excited, woo woo woo ......"

Lao Zhu helped Zheng Daochuan up with a pleasant face.

"Get up!"

"Your behavior of following the lord of the country into Beijing this time is no less than the meritorious work of Gu Zhijiezi to assist the Duke of Jin Wen!"

"If you return to North Korea in the future and suffer any grievances, you can order someone to write a letter to me, and I will uphold justice for you!"

"Your Majesty...... Minister...... How can the minister be so loved by His Majesty, the minister is willing to always be loyal to the Ming Dynasty, loyal to His Majesty, and assist the Korean lord to serve His Majesty for generations! ”

"Uh-huh......"

Zhu Yunxi couldn't stand it anymore, and felt that the other party had asked Lao Zhu to call him his father.

Zhu Yunxi didn't like to listen to it, but the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty behind him listened to it with relish, and some people even figured out how to write this passage into the living notes and records.

This is a historic meeting!

Lao Zhu appeased Zheng Daochuan and ordered the people of Honglu Temple to take him back to rest.

As for the other officials of North Korea, Lao Zhu was not interested in greetings, but just accepted them for a visit and sent them to Honglu Temple.

After dealing with the Korean monarchs and ministers, Lao Zhu took time to ask Qin Feng and the others.

"What are the battle losses?"

"Back to Your Majesty, there are only a few dozen people who were damaged in the battle, and they were all injured by the opponent's arrows......"

Lao Zhu saw that there were only dozens of dead and wounded, and his face showed surprise.

"That's all there is to it?"

"Back to Your Majesty, this is all caused by poor training and panic on the battlefield, I hope Your Majesty will forgive ......"

When Lao Zhu heard this, he was so angry that he wanted to give this guy a kick. He clearly asked why there were so few deaths, and he listened to the other party's tone as if he had made a big mistake!

However, without waiting for Lao Zhu to kick Qin Feng, Zhu Yunxi spoke first.

"After so many deaths, you still have the face to come back?"

"Go back and write a 10,000-word inspection and hand it in, organize all officers at or above the rank of chief, sum up the lessons of this failure, and write a 1,000-word inspection for each of them, and give it to us tomorrow...... Give it to Lonely! ”

Lao Zhu was dumbfounded when he heard the number of the eldest grandson, and he said in his heart that the eldest grandson was too good at leading the troops, and they were only killed and injured, so they were not satisfied, and they had to punish others......

The civil and military generals behind the two were also stunned, is His Majesty the Secret Emperor so strict?

After such a big victory, not to mention the reward, isn't it a bit too much to punish his subordinates?

However, to their surprise, Qin Feng was not dissatisfied at all after hearing Zhu Yunxi's punishment, but happily accepted it.

"No!"

"Humble position, take people back to the camp to write an inspection!"

"We promise to deeply reflect on the mistakes of this campaign and conscientiously sum up the lessons and lessons ......"

Lao Zhu really couldn't listen to it anymore, and reprimanded with a straight face.

"Zhu Yunxi, you're too strict with your subordinates, aren't you?"

"Who is that, you don't have to listen to his nonsense, you go back and rest first, and we'll give you a lecture in a few days!"

"Grandpa Huang, you don't understand, in order to build the Jing Navy, my grandson spent a lot of money and a lot of effort, and I killed so many people, I didn't cut him down!"

Lao Zhu saw that the eldest grandson dared to speak back, and he was so angry that he raised his hand and was about to fight. Unexpectedly, as soon as he raised his hand here, Qin Feng spoke on his side.

"Your Majesty, the imperial grandson has learned the right lesson, this time it is indeed a miscommand of humble duty, which caused such a big loss!"

"The imperial grandson has obviously equipped us with a firearm with a range far beyond the bow and arrow, but he still brings the soldiers into the enemy's range......"

When Zhu Yunxi heard this, he scolded angrily.

"Where's the armor!"

"Didn't Lone give you light armor!"

"As long as you put on light armor, you will not be injured by bows and arrows!"

Qin Feng lowered his head in shame when he heard this.

"The officers and men in the army think that the weather is hot and humid, and many people do not wear light armor in private......"

"You!"

When Zhu Yunxi heard this, he kicked over, he wanted to kick a few more times, but was stopped by Lao Zhu.

"Alright!"

"We know that you have a good way of leading the troops, so you don't have to act in front of us!"

Zhu Yunxi saw Lao Zhu exposing his little tricks, and smiled awkwardly.

"Imperial grandfather Shengming, my grandson really can't hide anything from you, hehehe......"

Lao Zhu glared at Zhu Yunxi, and then said comfortably to Qin Feng.

"You guys did a good job, you didn't lose our face, hahaha!"

"All meritorious soldiers in this battle will be rewarded!"

When the officers and men of the Jing Navy heard this, they all brushed their respects and thanked them, and for a time the pier resounded with the earth-shattering sound of long live.

After everyone thanked him, Lao Zhu looked at the battleship on the river and suddenly became interested.

"This is the warship of your Jing Navy?"

"Yes!"

"Take us up there and have a look!"

When Qin Feng heard this, he didn't agree immediately, but looked at Zhu Yunxi on the side, and it wasn't until Zhu Yunxi nodded at him that he agreed.

Lao Zhu naturally noticed this little move, but he was in a good mood today, so he didn't bother to deal with his grandson.

When Lao Zhu followed Qin Feng to visit the battleship, Wang He came to Zhu Yunxi in a shy, and secretly stuffed the list of goods to Zhu Yunxi.

"Your Highness, this is a list of gifts from the King of Joseon!"

Zhu Yunxirao has seen the world, and he couldn't help but exclaim when he saw the list on the list.

"So much!"

Wang He said with a smile.

"Some things are too bulky to bring!"

"When I go back after the humble post, I will all move back for His Highness!"

Zhu Yunxi ignored Wang He's words and looked at the things on the list seriously. I saw that there were no less than hundreds of treasures written on it, including 300,000 taels of gold alone and as many as 2 million taels of silver.

Not to mention the miscellaneous corals, agate, pearls, ginseng and other miscellaneous things, just the real money will make him recover the capital!

"It's worth it!"

"With this money, Gu can build a navy again, hahaha!"

When Zhu Yunxi laughed with the list in his hand, the officials who passed by him all cast disdainful glances.

In this war, it is my Ming national prestige that is raised, and what is deterred is that the surrounding ministers are not subordinate, and the imperial grandson only cares about mere wealth, which is really insulting!

Although the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty did not look down on Zhu Yunxi's face of recognizing money, when they boarded the battleship and saw the goods piled up in the cabin, they all showed scarlet eyes.

"Your Majesty!"

"Money!"

"That's a lot of money!"

"There's a lot of gold, silver, jewelry, and coral agate in the cabin!"

When Lao Zhu heard this, he didn't care about admiring the cannons on the ship, so he followed the sound and ran into the cabin to count the money.

"That's a lot of money!"

"This time, our Daming treasury is finally full, hahaha!"

Zhu Yunxi heard the movement on the ship, and hurriedly rushed up to protect his property.

Lao Zhu drooled as he looked at the boatload of gold, silver and jewelry, but he was also embarrassed to rob his eldest grandson of money. After all, from the preparation of the Jing Navy to the daily training, he has not contributed a penny.

"Cut!"

"Look at your stinginess, like someone is going to rob you!"

"Didn't you want to rob me?"

"Let's ......"

Lao Zhu was speechless for a while by Zhu Yunxi's words, and in order to maintain his last dignity, he could only lead a group of officials off the boat with a snort.

"Reverse Sun, won't you go back to the palace with us?"

"No!"

"I'll have to watch these things go into storage to feel at ease!"

Lao Zhu pursed his lips disdainfully when he heard this.

"Virtue!"

Lao Zhu led a group of officials back to the palace and held an emergency meeting, the topic of which was how to place the king of Joseon.

The military generals believed that since the war had been defeated, it was naturally the land of the Ming Dynasty and troops should be sent to North Korea.

The civilian officials believe that Lao Zhu had issued an edict before, stating that the Ming Dynasty has a country that will not be levied, and North Korea will be among the countries that will not be levied.

Moreover, this expedition of the Jing Navy did not have a document of the imperial court military department, nor did it have an order of imperial power concession, which was an undeclared war, and it was a moral loss, and it should have escorted the Korean king back to Korea and let him continue to be a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty.

Lao Zhu also has a headache about this, as an emperor, of course he hopes that the eldest grandson will have the merit of expanding the territory.

But when he thought of the cost of the garrison, he felt a pang of distress in his heart.

In addition, there is no shortage of land in Daming, and North Korea is an enclave for Daming, and it is not easy to control and manage it.

Therefore, he did not take any position on the argument between the two sides, and just allowed the two sides to quarrel endlessly.

"Your Majesty, the old minister suggested that Li Chenggui be executed, Li Chenggui is a chaotic minister and thief, and it is not right to win the country!"

"Let's execute Li Chenggui, North Korea should naturally be assigned to the territory of the Ming Dynasty and become a part of the Ming Dynasty forever!"

When Chen Zongli saw Fu Youde finish speaking, he jumped out to object.

"Ying Guogong!"

"Have you ever calculated how many troops the Ming needs to station in North Korea to control the whole of North Korea?"

"One or twenty thousand is enough!"

"Then ask Ying Guogong again, what is the annual military expenditure of 10,000 or 20,000 people?"

"This ......"

Fu Youde was speechless for a moment when he heard this.

"Chen Zongli, this matter can't be dealt with purely by military spending!"

"If you take North Korea, there will be no more boundless troubles in Liaodong, and the Liao Wang's palace of the Liao King can also be built smoothly, and I will have a lot of land thousands of miles outside Liaodong, isn't this a great thing?"

This time, without waiting for Chen Zongli to speak, Tang Duo, the secretary of the military department, jumped out to fight with him.

"Of course it's not a good thing!"

"Not to mention the expedition to occupy the Korean labor division, the military expenses for the garrison alone will cost hundreds of thousands of taels every year!"

"Who's going to pay for this?"

"In addition, let's annex Korea is a small matter, how do other vassal states of the Ming Dynasty think about it?"

"Will everyone in Annam, Chenla, Siam, Champang, Japan and other countries be in danger?"

"At that time, all will attack Daming, how will Daming respond?"

After Tang Duo refuted Fu Youde, he bowed to Zhu Yuanzhang and sought the support of His Majesty the Emperor.

"Your Majesty, don't make a big mistake because of a small loss, so that Daming is in a situation where he is embattled!"

Lao Zhu was not unfamiliar with the broken place in North Korea, and when he heard Tang Duo's analysis, he was suddenly a little moved.

Feng Sheng knew Lao Zhu's temper too much, and as soon as he heard Tang Duo's words, he knew that he was going to suffer, so he hurriedly jumped out to oppose it.

"Tang Duo, is your special mother without eggs!"

"You are still a secretary of the military department, you should be a secretary of the military department!"

"The land that our Ming soldiers fought hard to grab, you actually said that you would send it, are you still human!"

The other generals were even addicted when they heard Feng Sheng's words, and they all clamored.

"Song Guogong is right!"

"This land was brought down by the Ming soldiers, why should it be returned to them!"

"If they want to, let them take it back on the battlefield!"
