Chapter 427: It is time to plan
The voice of the Doge stepping down soon resounded throughout Venice, and for a moment everyone put the blame for the Principality of Venice in such a situation on the Viceroy Francesco.
However, no one wants to sit still.
Public opinion is sometimes very free, but this is just those who can control public opinion are too lazy to care, and if they really want to manage it, then there is no freedom at all.
Soon, a diametrically opposed voice began to emerge, and people suddenly remembered something.
Originally, it was the governor Francesco who joined the alliance between the Holy See and the Holy Rome and started the war against the Ming army, but it was the Order of Ten who coerced Francesco by electing a new governor.
Soon, public opinion was reversed, and Francesco, who had just been a rat in the streets, quickly became a wise ruler who really saw the situation, a hero who wanted to pull the Duchy of Venice out of the abyss of destruction, but all this was destroyed by the Ten, cutting the only rope that pulled the Duchy of Venice out of the abyss of destruction.
The polar reversal of public opinion soon made the group of ten feel that something was wrong, and they immediately sent someone to find Francesco, because it was obvious that Francesco had done it.
For these people, there is nothing that cannot be traded, and since Francesco still has a backhand, it is better to make another trade.
However, it was not Francesco who was waiting for the Ten, but the empty Doge's Palace.
Yes, Francesco...... Ran.
……
The estuary of the Adige River.
In fact, this is already the territory of the Duchy of Venice, but because of the pressure of the Ming army, there are almost no people here, and there are two small cities on the road, and they were taken over by the Ming army without any resistance.
At first, Zhu Zhanyan thought that these European white pigs also looked at the art of war and played an empty city plan, but later when the soldiers rushed in, they realized that this was really an empty city, and everyone was scared away.
In fact, this kind of thing would be a very strange thing if it was placed in other countries, but if it was placed in the Duchy of Venice, it would really not be a strange thing.
The Duchy of Venice, which was dominated by commerce, would lose its population quickly in the event of war, which was the essence of merchants.
Zhu Zhanyan couldn't go any further.
In fact, except for the initial expedition to the east and the burning of the Indochina Peninsula, he has rarely been in the battle battle in person, after all, he is no longer a "minister" during the Yongle Dynasty.
Watching Jian Xiao and the soldiers set off to Venice, Zhu Zhan Yan was at the door of the makeshift camp, looking at the soldiers who were getting farther away from time to time, and looking at the direction of the sea from time to time.
Truth be told, he really wanted the Duchy of Venice to gamble, because it would be much easier.
"His Royal Highness."
However, before Zhu Zhan was quiet for long, Zhu Ping walked up.
"The son of the Duke of Qianguo came, saying that he had something important to tell him, and he couldn't fake others."
"Huh?" Zhu Zhanyan's brows furrowed.
There is confidential information, which is understandable, after all, it is a war at the moment, but if you want to say that this information is so secret that even Zhu Ping can't be trusted......
Zhu Zhanyan doesn't believe it, so there is only one situation.
The message is so important that it is not transmitted through paper, but by word of mouth.
"Let him come."
"Yes!"
In fact, if you want to let Mu Bin, the son of the contemporary Qianguo Gong and the eldest son of the eldest son, come over to deliver the news, then this news must be extraordinary.
Soon, Zhu Ping took Mu Bin to Zhu Zhan Ping, and when he saw Mu Bin, Zhu Zhan Ping's first sentence was not to care about the so-called news, nor Mu Bin's safety, but to ask as soon as he came up.
"It's quite bold, although this Adriatic exit is guarded by the fleet led by your father, the interior is still dominated by the fleet of the Duchy of Venice."
"In this case, you dare to come by boat, is it your idea or your father's idea?"
"Uh......" Mu Bin's originally elated expression instantly became low, and his head drooped.
Still, he wanted to defend himself, because he thought he had enough reasons this time.
"My dad asked me to come over, but mainly because the news was too urgent this time, and there was ...... at home."
Mu Bin is still a child from a family in the end, although he almost made a mistake in a hurry, but fortunately, he reacted quickly.
Seeing this, Zhu Zhan Yan waved his hand, and Zhu Ping quickly took the prince to clean up the surroundings, leaving only Zhu Zhan Yan and Mu Bin.
"At home? Is my eldest nephew on the throne? ”
Seeing that the people around him were cleared, Mu Bin just wanted to speak, but was blocked back by Zhu Zhanyan's words.
"You...... How do you know? Mu Bin was dumbfounded.
"Hmph......" Zhu Zhanyan laughed very coldly twice, which made people feel very perfunctory when they heard it, but they didn't explain.
Naturally, he wouldn't explain to Mu Bin that he had planned it, but the person who carried it out was his father, and Mu Bin hadn't reached the point where he could get in touch with this kind of thing yet.
Moreover, Mu Sheng is obviously measured, because Mu Sheng actually knew about this matter, but it is obvious that he did not tell Mu Bin, even if Mu Bin is his own son, he is also the eldest son.
"Is there anything else going on?" Zhu Zhanyan didn't care about Mu Bin's doubtful face, but opened his mouth to ask.
If it was just this one piece of news, Mu Sheng would not let Mu Bin take the risk to come over, obviously there were other things.
"His Royal Highness Hui Shizi, my father asks you, do you want to go back? Because my dad thinks this is a rare opportunity, and if he misses it, he may not encounter this opportunity in a short time. ”
"What else?" Zhu Zhanyan did not answer directly, but continued to ask.
"Uh......" Zhu Zhanyan's indifference was obviously beyond Mu Bin's expectations, but he could only answer Zhu Zhanyan's question step by step.
"Also, the matter of Chen Mao and Zheng Heng has been decided, but they should have come with the ministers this time, but they were called to Yingtianfu by His Royal Highness King Wu halfway, saying that they would come back with the next supply."
"There is also His Royal Highness King Wu who said that in addition to Chen Mao and Zheng Heng, Fan Zhong and Xu Heng will also come over."
"What else?" Zhu Zhanyan's brows furrowed, these were obviously not the most important.
Chen Mao and Zheng Heng, these two people can be regarded as a kind of temptation, and they can be regarded as a sign that the Han Dynasty began to give back to the generals.
During the Yongle Dynasty, it can be said that most of the military generals in the court supported Zhu Gaoxu, because Zhu Gaoxu was different from Emperor Hongxi and really represented the interests of the military generals.
However, it is a pity that later with the establishment of the domain, this power structure was destroyed, and many generals who lost their backbone had no choice but to accept the deployment of the imperial court, and changed from the Han Dynasty Party to the Emperor Party.
Now, the Han Dynasty has the greatest power, and naturally wants to take back some of it, but because more than ten years have been too long, it can only be done slowly.
Xu Heng doesn't need to say it, he went to the domain with Zhu Gaoxu's family back then, Zhu Zhanyan felt that his father transferred him over out of the heart of stabilizing the old-school generals, after all, you have begun to win people's hearts, you can't let the people who have been following you not eat meat, right?
As for Fan Zhong...... It's a kind of suppression.
Everyone knows that Fan Zhong is following Zhu Zhanji, and transferring him can be said to have cut off the last trace of thought of those who still have illusions.
However, whatever the reason, these can only be considered normal transfers.
"What else?" Zhu Zhanyan's brows became tighter and tighter.
"Uh......" Mu Bin didn't expect Zhu Zhanyan to be so calm, after hesitating for a moment, he looked around, and then leaned towards Zhu Zhanyan's side.
"Uh......"
Listening to Mu Bin's words, Zhu Zhanyan was stunned.
It was only at this time that Zhu Zhanyan knew why Mu Bin was so mysterious, and only then did he understand why Mu Sheng had to let Mu Bin come over to spread the word regardless of the risk.
The news is very simple, in fact, it is the news that Hu Shanshu is pregnant.
Because of the distance, it was not until this time that Zhu Zhanyan received the news, although at the beginning Zhu Zhanyan felt that Mu Sheng was making a fuss, but he quickly figured it out.
The so-called fuss is actually just because he is used to the thoughts of later generations, after all, in that era when marriage and childbirth need to be urged, people do not pay so much attention to the matter of having children, and even have some fear.
Among them, the post-90s generation bears the brunt, after all, the post-80s who should get married are all married, and the children who should have children are also born, and the post-90s are not yet old, and the post-90s generation has naturally become the largest group of people who are urged to marry and give birth.
It's just that in this era, with Zhu Zhanyan's identity, especially this situation, it is really not a big fuss.
Didn't you see that Mu Sheng let his own son, or the eldest son staring at the danger to send a message?
The reason is very simple, Zhu Zhanyan's children are directly related to the future interests of all the people who are now tied to the line of King Wu.
The news of Hu Shanshu's pregnancy, so far, it can be said that no one knows except trustworthy people, and even the transmission of this news was personally delivered to Mu Sheng by Zhu Gaoxu's personal guard Zhu Heng for decades, and then Mu Sheng let his son send it over.
It can be said that no more than three mouths passed through this message during the delivery.
"I see, you can go back first." After a short period of stunned, Zhu Zhanyan came back to his senses, looked at Mu Bin and said.
"Remember to go back by land this time, first turn back to Rome, and then take a boat from Rome to meet your father, don't go to the Adriatic Sea."
"Uh......" Mu Bin was stunned for a moment, his expression was hesitant, as if he wanted to say something but didn't dare to say it.
"What? You don't want to go back? Zhu Zhanyan raised his eyebrows.
"Not really." Mu Bin quickly shook his head, and then whispered.
"Your Royal Highness...... Don't you go back? You must know that this is the first time that the princess is pregnant, and this may be your eldest son......"
"I'll go back, but not now." Zhu Zhanyan first nodded, and then shook his head.
"After all, I am pregnant for ten months, and I don't have any other role to do when I go back now except to accompany me, instead of going back to sit down, it is better to do everything that needs to be done first."
"Uh...... All right. Mu Bin didn't expect Zhu Zhanyan to be so calm, but he could only bow down and prepare to retire.
"Then the minister will ......"
"Wait a minute, ......" Zhu Zhanyan beckoned, interrupting Mu Bin's words.
"Go back and tell your dad that the original plan was overturned and let him start cleaning the Adriatic Sea as quickly as possible, and I hope to see the results within half a month."
"Yes!" Mu Bin's spiritual head came up in an instant.
……
Watching Mu Bin leave, Zhu Zhanyan took a deep breath.
Soon there will be after.
At first glance, he didn't feel much of a thing, but as he slowly reacted later, he began to have a different feeling in his heart.
Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanyan couldn't help but take a deep breath and turned his head to look at the northwest.
There, in the direction of the Alps.
In fact, he had long thought that he was going to come again in this Alps, just like when he killed the emperor and sacrificed the mountain on Mt. Fuji in the Japanese country.
However, it is a pity that when the Duke of Rein entered Rome, he did not leave the life of Pope Martin V, but only brought the body of Martin V to Zhu Zhanqi.
Otherwise, Martin V, the pope, should be qualified to be dragged up the Alps by Zhu Zhan and slaughtered the mountain.
But it's okay, Martin V put it bluntly, he was a puppet pope after the 60-year split of the Holy See, and he sacrificed to the mountain...... Nominally he's qualified, but in fact it's almost meaningless.
Well, all that remains is the Holy Roman Emperor, Sigismund.
Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanyan's eyelids drooped slightly.
It seems that I am running out of time.
He didn't want to be like that cousin in history, who died young and caused his son to be taught to be a waste by the demon queen Sun Ruowei.
All along, Zhu Zhanyan only classified himself as the beginning of the plan, and the real executor of the plan was identified by him as his son.
Although it is still uncertain whether Hu Shanshu is a son in her womb and whether she can give birth safely, it is always necessary to prepare in advance.
Hu Shanshu will definitely go back when he gives birth, the first three years of the child...... No, count four...... Five years! He was free for the first five years, but after the child was five years old......
Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanyan took a deep breath.
It seems that it is time to speed up the process.
However, at this moment, Kun Tashi should have received the eagle too, right?
Moha Chi ......
