Da Ming may really be a source.

This is a lot of people's thoughts, and this idea is not unprovoked, or any idea is not unprovoked, at least there will be a source.

Whether it is an extension or a reverie, without a source, it will not be generated.

The first year of Hongxi.

On the first day of the first lunar month, the Yongle year name, which lasted for 22 years, finally ended its mission and was written into the history books, replaced by the word Hongxi.

The new emperor ascended the throne and established the era name, which should have been a universal celebration, and people did celebrate it in this way.

After all, Emperor Hongxi is famous, as early as when he was the son of King Yan, he was famous for his benevolence, and now he has become the emperor, which can be said to have fulfilled the wishes of most people.

Civil officials have always been staunch princelings, and now that the crown prince has ascended the throne, they are naturally the most willing to see it.

In addition to civil officials, there are also ordinary people.

They are very optimistic about Zhu Gaochi, who is famous for his benevolence, after all, a benevolent emperor has a great chance of allowing them to live a good life.

At least, on the surface, that's how it looks.

Probably, only the generals are not satisfied with Zhu Gaochi's succession.

No, it can't be said that they are not satisfied, it can only be said that there is a better choice in the hearts of the generals, but this choice is not up to them.

Therefore, the arrival of the first year of Hongxi can be described as a celebration of the whole world, but before the first month, a piece of news shocked people.

Jin Yiwei commanded Ji Gang, privately kept soldiers in captivity, hoarded weapons and baggage, and was punished for the crime of rebellion, beheaded his family, and connected the nine clans!

No one expected that this Emperor Hongxi would ascend the throne and succeed to the throne...... No, it can't be said that he ascended the throne and succeeded to the throne, it should be said that in the first month of his first year, he connected a nine clans.

As for why Ji Gang came to this point, people all know, after all, they have said it, captive soldiers, hoarding weapons, and intending to rebel.

But in reality? ——

Astrakhan.

When Zhu Zhanyan received the news, it was already March, but he didn't have any thoughts about this matter.

If you insist on saying that there is, it can only be funny.

Ordinary people may not know the deep-seated reasons for this, because their knowledge and ideas are blocked by class.

The lower-ranking officials may not know either, because they are not strong enough to touch the top things.

Top officials, such as cabinet scholars, may know that something important must have happened here, after all, this generation of Jinyi Guard commanders has always been the best sword.

If there was no reason, Ji Gang would not have died so inexplicably, and he was charged with a crime of rebellion.

But it is impossible for Zhu Zhanyan not to know.

After all, this incident can be said to have been created by him, or he made a start, and as for this result, it was Emperor Hongxi who came out of it himself.

The conscience of heaven and earth, he didn't plan to bring any trouble to the emperor, he just wanted this Zhu Yunwen to go to Changling to pay respects, and no matter how bad it was, he could bring his head over to make the old man feel at ease.

But when Zhu Yunwen arrived at Shuntian Mansion, everything had nothing to do with him Zhu Zhanyan, what was the final result of Zhu Yunwen and what kind of impact it would have on the Ming Dynasty, it was all the emperor's thoughts.

"Your Highness." Jian Xiao watched Zhu Zhanyan throw the secret letter into the furnace and asked softly.

"Do you want to send someone to Shuntianfu to investigate?"

Nowadays, the first line of King Wu and the first line of Shuntianfu cannot be said to have no intersection at all, after all, the land under the jurisdiction of the first line of King Wu is still nominally hung with the name of the Ming Dynasty, and there is a very important intersection.

Merchant.

The wool trade was decided when the old man was still alive, but it was not the same as Zhu Zhanyan's original plan, after all, Warat was already ready to move at that time.

The wool trade is ostensibly a benefit to Wara, but in fact, Zhu Zhan is a bad intention, so even if he hopes that the wool trade will be as big as possible, Daming's side can't show it too obviously.

The processing of wool requires a large amount of caustic soda, which has always been from King Wu's side.

Therefore, if you want to find out the news, it's not that you can't, but it's a little difficult.

"There's no need." Zhu Zhanyan waved his hand, with an indescribable expression on his face.

Not happy, not sad.

"I can probably guess a little bit about this, maybe it's a little different from reality, but it should be about the same."

"Besides, Ji Gang has been taken out and used for the last time, and I think it's not a small matter here, and it can't be found out by just asking."

"However, I can send a message to the imperial court, saying that we need warm clothes here, so that the wool trade on the imperial court side can be tightened."

"Yes!"

Jian Xiao bowed and retreated, while Zhu Zhanyan leaned back in his chair, thinking about the recent events.

He didn't know what was going on in Shuntianfu, so that his uncle could use Ji Gang's chess piece as a stepping stone, he only knew that it must be related to Zhu Yunwen.

As for the wool trade, he just reminded his good uncle that now that the old man's Yongle year had passed, it was time to do something about the grassland.

Zhu Zhan Yan didn't expect his uncle, who was known for his benevolence, to attack the grassland with fierce means, but that didn't mean that he couldn't do anything to the grassland.

For example, under the banner of benevolence and righteousness, the trade in the grasslands can be relaxed, which can strengthen the spying on the strength of Warat, and second, it can promote the wool trade.

The wool trade has been established for several years, and Zhu Zhanyan doesn't know what the situation is in the grassland, but it should have an effect.

However, this is just Zhu Zhanyan's suggestion to his uncle, as for himself, it doesn't matter, because he doesn't have to be wool.

In Daming, there is cotton, and wool clothing has always been something enjoyed by the aristocracy, and in the past two years, the amount of wool trade has slowly risen, and the price has slowly fallen, and it has begun to slowly enter the homes of ordinary people.

For marching and fighting, it is enough to keep warm, and as for what the material is, it is not demanding.

Moreover, Zhu Zhanyan's current energy is not in this regard.

Next to his room, there lived three white women, and if you want to talk about the origin of these three white women, then there are some to say.

The three women were sent by Murad, the monarch of the Ottoman Empire, and the purpose was somewhat amusing.

They wanted the Ming army to stop its advance and leave them the land on the opposite shore of Constantinople from the northwest coast of Ankara, that is, to the Turkish Straits, while they regarded themselves as vassals of the Ming Dynasty and paid annual tribute.

For this request, Zhu Zhanyan was actually quite speechless, because he didn't know if Murad's impression of Daming was still stuck in the previous era of governing the country with benevolence, or whether he had never understood himself.

Anyway, because of Zhu Zhanqi, the Ottoman Empire was forced to attack Constantinople in advance, and after encountering the Byzantine Empire, which was not weakened, defeat was the only result.

Now that he has found himself, Zhu Zhanyan probably knows Murad's thoughts.

Either he wanted to get a chance to survive, or he wanted to attack the Byzantine Empire himself, so that he could reap the benefits of the fisherman.

Zhu Zhanyan didn't want to deal with Murad, because he didn't need it, as long as he wanted to, the fall of the Ottoman Empire was just a thought, and although the Byzantine Empire was a little difficult, it was only a matter of time.

However, the funniest thing is not this, but the identities of those three women.

The three women had a common surname, but the Ottoman monarch Murad was not white, so why were the three women sent white?

Because these three women were not chosen by him, but were given to Zhu Zhan by the Kingdom of Naples to seek an alliance.

To put it bluntly, nothing came out of the Ottoman Empire...... It's not right, they also asked people to send some property, but it wasn't a lot for Zhu Zhanyan.

This is also the reason why Zhu Zhan Yan obviously bombed away the envoys of the Ottoman Empire, but the three women stayed.

All three women were the daughters of the royal family of the Kingdom of Naples (later known as Idali), the current ruler Jeanne II.

As the daughter of the royal family, she was also sent as a bargaining chip, and the reason for this was that Jeanne II made a decision after learning that Zhu Zhan had occupied the Suez region and was going to dig the Suez Canal.

Daming's ocean-going treasure fleet can be said to be world-famous at this stage, although it has never reached the Mediterranean region, but after all, it has also arrived at Kurumus, so Europe also knows Daming's seafaring strength to some extent.

If the Suez Canal is opened, it means that the treasure fleet of the Ming Dynasty can directly enter the Mediterranean.

It stands to reason that the Ming fleet sailed into the Mediterranean, which was of little benefit to the Kingdom of Naples, but it was precisely because of this that Jeanne II chose to unite with Zhu Zhan in advance.

More than a hundred years ago, the Kingdom of Naples was called the Kingdom of Sicily (Sicily), but thanks to the intervention of the Pope, the Kingdom of Sicily eventually became the Kingdom of Naples and the Kingdom of Sicily.

Since then, the Kingdom of Naples occupies the Idalian Peninsula and the Kingdom of Sicily occupies Sicily.

Speaking of which, Jeanne II's purpose is very obvious, that is, to let Zhu Zhan send troops from the sea to promote the unification of the Kingdom of Naples.

The purpose is so big, it is naturally impossible for the woman sent to be ordinary, but Zhu Zhanyan is keeping filial piety to the old man, and the result of this matter is basically needless to say.

But in addition to keeping filial piety, there is another point: Zhu Zhanyan almost threw up when he saw these three women for the first time.

It's not that they're not beautiful, on the contrary, they are all superior, and the reason why Zhu Zhanyan almost spit it out is the smell on their bodies.

As we all know, white people are born with a great body odor, which is why the perfume industry in Europe is so developed, but the development of the perfume industry in Europe is not just because of this reason.

In the Middle Ages, when the Black Death was raging, it was surprising that people chose not to take a bath in the face of this infectious disease.

It doesn't sound ridiculous, but it's actually true.

As I said before, cats are considered to be the embodiment of Satan, and the Black Death is also believed to be a disease transmitted by Satan, and at that time the church propagated that this disease spread by Satan has no effect on people covered in dirt, after all, Satan is filthy in the eyes of people, and if you are also filthy, you will be mistaken for your own person by demons.

As a result, Europeans, who did not like bathing because of their religious beliefs, did not like bathing even more, and it is said that Louis XIV did not take a bath for 64 years.

The smell is great, coupled with this history, which is the reason for the development of the perfume industry in Europe.

However, this is only one of the reasons for Zhu Zhanyan's refusal, and the other makes him refuse...... Or should it be said that it made him careless about these things in a short period of time.

Emperor Hongxi, who had only ascended the throne for a little more than three months, fell ill.

The end of the month, the end of the month! Ask for tickets! Ask for tickets!
