"Rui De, you have a lot of backbone, and you are admired!" Zhu Yijun looked at Lu Yi who was pressed by Ti Cai, and recognized this bone spirit very much, in order to see the emperor, Lu Yi succumbed to the etiquette of the Ming Dynasty, but when he saw the Ming Emperor, Lu Yi refused to kneel, who gave him the courage?

Zhu Yijun couldn't help asking, did Lu Yi really come to negotiate peace? The Governor of Goa, Meneses, sent him, more like he came to declare war!

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty all looked at this scene in great surprise.

Since Zhu Yuanzhang opened up, how can there be any tribute envoys from Fanguo who refuse to kneel?

Wan Shihe knows one thing, that is, in the nineteenth year of Yongle, the envoys of the Timurid Kingdom Aldusha and Gaisuyaddin refused to kneel, Aldusha was the prime minister of the Timurid Kingdom, and Gaisuyaddin was a fierce general.

Between the Ming Dynasty and the Timurid Kingdom, separated by a Western Regions, the Ming Dynasty is indeed beyond the reach of the whip, and at that time the Timurid Kingdom was the overlord of Central Asia, known as the suzerainty of one hundred and twenty-seven countries, Timur defeated and captured the Ottoman Sultan Lightning Bayezid I, naturally has his own arrogance, but after witnessing the glory of the Ming army, the envoy of the Timurid Kingdom came directly to kneel.

The arrogance of the envoys of the Timurid kingdom was based on the strength of the Timurid kingdom and the fact that the Ming Dynasty was far away from the Timurid kingdom and could not reach it.

But where did Rui de get his arrogance? He actually dared to play tricks on the officials of the Ming Rite Department, rebelled, and did not kneel in the palace, and the water journey of the Ming army to the Goa Governor's Mansion was only two months, which was shorter than the time for the Beijing camp to arrive at Jiayuguan!

And all the officials of the Ministry of Rites are numb, when they teach, they are good, and when they go to the palace, they will regret it, if Your Majesty blames it, there will be no good fruit to eat in the Ministry of Rites, Chen Xuexue looked at Ma Ziqiang, Ma Ziqiang looked at Wan Shihe, Diego De is very honest now, after being beaten, he honestly went to the martial arts school to take classes, this Rui De, still underbeaten.

When some ministers saw this scene, they began to mumble in a low voice, this scene, the Ming Dynasty officials, really haven't seen it.

"The Goa Governor's Office will definitely use its own sword to protect its territory, the Ming Dynasty has given up the old port, the Strait of Malacca has been abandoned for more than 170 years, we have occupied Mangarat for 60 years, the Ming Emperor said a word, we have to let it out? This cannot happen, I am not kneeling down to you as a tyrant today, I am telling you about this tyrant! All of us in the Goa Governor's Palace, there is no lack of courage, and we will hold out to the last man! ”

"Your attempt will never succeed!" Rui was pressed by the shoulders and kicked to the ground, forcing him to kneel, but he shouted anyway.

According to Ruy's intelligence, the Ming Emperor spoke Latin very well, and the Ming Emperor must be able to understand what he shouted.

Zhu Yijun picked up a square towel, wiped his hands, took a box from Feng Bao's hand, and after making sure that there was no sweaty hands, he opened the box, and there was a scroll of holy decrees lying inside, he put on his gloves, and while opening the holy decrees, he said: "No, no, no, Rui, you are wrong, that land, not yours, I have to remind you that sixty years ago, you captured the city of Malacca, and the king and prince of Mangarat escaped, and since then the king has been organizing resistance and trying to recapture the city of Malacca." ”

"You extinguished the old king's resistance, but this prince is still alive in the Ming Dynasty."

"This prince's name is Duan Maimaiti, he went to Daming to find Qiu Daolong, the secretary of the Honglu Temple of the Ministry of Rites, and cried, Qiu Daolong reported to Emperor Wuzong, and Emperor Wuzong was furious."

"In December of the fifteenth year of Zhengde, Emperor Wu Zongyi issued a holy decree to tell the Portuguese envoy Huo Shi San, Mangara is the kingdom canonized by the Ming edict, it is the vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, and it is a subject country of the Ming Dynasty, and the Franco machine people actually dared to break through the capital and annex the land of Mangara, and also asked the Ming Dynasty to recognize the occupation of the Franc machine people, and the Ming Dynasty will never recognize the rule of the Franc machine people in Malacca, and sent the envoy Jiang Bin to the city of Malacca with a holy decree to make the Franc machine people return the territory, if they are obsessed, they will definitely declare your sins and crusade against your crimes."

"This holy decree is the original, Jiang Bin brought it back in March of the second year, the Francophile refused to agree, and chose to resist the decree, Jiang Bin was imprisoned by Emperor Wuzong because of his unfavorable mission."

Zhu Yijun opened the holy decree, even if it was a Gaoli tribute paper, but it was still slightly yellow, this holy decree was the original, Feng Bao turned it out from the ancient and modern collection library, Jiang Bin took it, the red hair was disrespectful, and Jiang Bin brought it back.

The reason for Jiang Bin's imprisonment is very simple, and Emperor Wuzong said it very clearly: you are an envoy of the Han Dynasty, and the thieves resist the decree, and they should be invited to attack him.

"In the first year of Jiajing, Emperor Sejong issued an order to execute Jiang Bin, as well as the Portuguese envoy Yasan, who had lived in the Ming Dynasty for twelve years." After Zhu Yijun closed the holy decree and put it away carefully, he picked up another driving sticker, which was the driving sticker that the Taoist Master beheaded Jiang Bin and the Fire Man Yasan.

The reason for Jiang Bin's death is also very clear, the vassal state of the Ming Dynasty was destroyed, and Jiang Bin did not do things well with the holy decree, so that the Ming Dynasty suffered humiliation, and he deserved to die.

Zhu Yijun took out another holy decree from the box and continued: "In the thirty-second year of Jiajing, Duan Maimaiti died in the Ming Dynasty, and Emperor Sejong ordered an official burial, and then still canonized Duan Maimat's descendants as the king of Mangara. ”

Dao Ye is a cautious eye, not to kill Jiang Bin, kill the fire Yasan, kill Tomee Piles, it will be over, Dao Ye has always remembered this matter, but in the thirty-second year of Jiajing, the northern captives entered the Kou, and the southeast was in turmoil, and Dao Ye can only remember this matter.

Zhu Yijun put the holy decree away, took out a holy decree from it, and said: "From the position of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty has never given up the claim to Mankala, Portugal has never been allowed to pay tribute, in the first year of Wanli, the governor of Liangguang Yin Zhengmao expelled the Francophone people who occupied the territory of Hao without permission. ”

"From the point of view of Portugal, Antonio, the heir of your king, accepted the canonization of the Ming Dynasty and dedicated the Strait of Malacca to the Ming Dynasty, which is a letter sent by Antonio, which is my decree to canonize him as the King of Portugal."

"Do you have any questions?"

Rui De listened very clearly, the Ming Dynasty was very well prepared, starting from the grievances and hatreds sixty years ago, and then to the various events in the Wanli period, the Ming Dynasty did have a very, very complete claim in legal theory, and even the descendants of the prince of Mangara were still alive and well in the Ming Dynasty.

Even if the old things are not mentioned, the Mangara Kingdom was de facto destroyed, and from the position of Portugal, Crown Prince Antonio also betrayed the ownership of the entire Strait of Malacca.

However, Portugal is Portugal, and the Viceroyalty of Goa is the Viceroyalty of Goa, and their interests are not completely identical.

"Now that we have de facto occupied the Strait of Malacca, what is the use of you tyrant saying so much! I'm telling you today that we're definitely not leaving the Straits of Malacca! Rui was pinned, still refusing to lower his head, holding his neck and shouting loudly.

Zhao Mengyou stretched out his hand and pressed Lu Yi's head to the ground, Lu Yi refused to kneel, and he was willing to bow his head to the ear, it was Lu Yi's business, and it was the duty of Zhao Mengyou to let Lu Yi kneel and bow his head.

Zhu Yijun put the holy decree and other things into the box, took off his gloves, looked at Lu Yi and said: "I am a reasonable person, the reason makes sense, let's talk about it, if the reason doesn't make sense, I won't talk about it." ”

"Didn't you say that you won't surrender until you die to the last man?"

"Well, I promise you, I'll kill them all."

"As a great tomorrow, I have said it, and I will never break my word."

"These documents, I have people rubbed a copy, you take it back, this is my truth, I tell you, you can not listen, but I must say, the Ming Dynasty is not a barbarian, it is a civilized country and a state of etiquette."

The Central Plains has a long history, this is a burden, but also a kind of pride, most people in the Ming Dynasty respect history, including Zhu Yijun, the emperor, picked up the holy decree during the Zhengde and Jiajing periods, the emperor is also cautious, because after a long time, the paper has become fragile, but it doesn't matter, Zhu Yijun has made people engrave these into inscriptions.

Zhu Yijun waved his hand and told Lu Yi to get out, since they want war, then give them war, Lu Yi is still shouting, but he was taken away by the correction officials, in the Imperial Palace, the civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty are a little silent, even those retro factions who are clamoring for the princes of Rouyuan can't say a word of bullshit at this time.

Rui De's reversal, obviously agreeing but refusing to kneel, humiliated the officials of the Ministry of Rites, humiliated the Ming Emperor, and humiliated the Ming Dynasty.

In the twenty-ninth year of Jiajing, Altan Khan entered Kou Jinggi, besieged the Beijing division, and sent envoys to Beijing to negotiate the withdrawal of troops, and Altan Khan's envoys knelt.

"Rui De, Hongmaofan, came from afar to Muyi, did not know the etiquette of the Heavenly Empire, and was an important minister of the court, so he went to Guangxiao Temple to practice the ceremony for three days. On the first day, he began to kneel on his left leg, on the second day he began to kneel on his right leg, and on the third day, he kowtowed, and he was introduced to Honglu Temple. Zhu Yijun took off his gloves and took out the music of the Ministry of Rites.

Lu Yi learned etiquette in Guangxiao Temple, he did learn it, and after learning it, he met Honglu Temple Qing Chen to arrange an audience.

"The minister is guilty." Ma Ziqiang, Chen Xuexue and other officials of the Ministry of Rites hurriedly went out to confess their guilt, and they could not escape the blame for such an accident.

"No, no, no, I clearly remember that when Wan Dazai was still the Great Sect Uncle, he patted the table and said to me: Yidi, wolf-faced beast-hearted, fearful of power but not virtuous! Today's incident just proves that what Wan Dazai said is true, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites have done their best. Zhu Yijun thinks he is a reasonable person.

Meneses sent Rui to negotiate peace, and those conditions were already very favorable, and Menezes's ultimate goal was to continue to exist in place of Mangalay.

The Ministry of Rites arranged an audience, Rui was very obedient, and Rui turned his face in the palace, which surprised everyone.

"Rui's behavior actually illustrates what Mr. Sima and Mr. said to me, what you can't get on the battlefield can't be imagined at the negotiation table." Zhu Yijun said with emotion.

The reason why Rui came to the temple to shout is that he can't be defeated on the battlefield? If he can fight on the battlefield, he will have to travel thousands of miles to Beijing?

Zhang Juzheng was ready to reproach Chen Shan, Hai Rui poked out one foot, His Majesty spoke, Zhang Juzheng breathed a sigh of relief, and Hai Rui's foot poked out was also withdrawn.

For the rudeness of a Fanyi envoy, killing important ministers of the court, isn't this a typical behavior of relatives hurting, enemies being fast, and ghosts in the door? Emperor, you have such a big temper, why don't you kill Fanyi?

As a result, His Majesty did not blame the officials of the Ministry of Rites at all, Zhang Juzheng was ready to have a stomach, and he prepared in vain, when he said in "Shi Zheng Shu" that the country's big disadvantage is that the rewards and punishments are unknown, Hai Rui found that during the Wanli period, he rarely had the opportunity to blame Chen Shan, so he could only catch a few more corrupt officials and be loyal to his duties.

"Your Majesty, thank you." Ma Ziqiang wiped the sweat on his forehead, His Majesty's temperament is indeed the same as what Yu Dayou said, too soft, according to the basic logic of the king's humiliation and death, Ma Ziqiang should lose his head at this time, even after thinking twice, coupled with Yuan Fu and Taiwan's advice to be benevolent, Ma Ziqiang's best fate is just to sit guilty and go to prison.

Jiang Bin was imprisoned because he didn't issue the holy decree, and then he was beheaded for public display.

Under the feudal monarchy, it was like this.

Your Majesty's temperament is soft and benevolent, and the reason why he is so good at killing people is not to blame His Majesty, but that the courtiers have lost their deference.

Zhu Yijun looked around and asked calmly: "Is there anyone who still opposes the restoration of the old Hong Kong Propaganda Department in the Ming Dynasty?" No one objected today, and there will be no more opposition in the future. ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!" Zhang Juzheng led the ministers to directly sing praises and sang praises.

"Alright, Xuansha Ammat." Zhu Yijun signaled the ministers to return to class, the main topic of the court meeting, the announcement that the foreign envoy is not over, Lu Yi is so noisy, but the court with a variety of opinions has reached an agreement, this Strait of Malacca is in the hands of foreigners, Daming eats jujube pills, this red hair fan is not only bold, but also very ruthless, which is also an unexpected joy.

There have always been people who have opposed the imperial court before, and then set up the Old Port Propaganda Department, and then seek the Strait of Malacca, if there is a voice in the court, then Zhu Yijun has to be careful of his head in his dreams.

The reason for the opposition is very sufficient, because of Menezes's obedience, the conditions he gave are indeed very moving, so that some retro officials regain their old dreams, and start the big dream of the people of Rouyuan and the princes of the world, it seems that this Strait of Malacca is in the Goa Governor's Palace, and it is not impossible, everyone is harmonious and wealthy.

The Confucian Nine Classics have poisoned the Central Plains for thousands of years.

But it turns out that Fanyi is Fanyi after all, and Lu Yi's behavior is like a slap in the face, slapping these retro Confucian students in the face and waking up their dreams.

The contradiction related to survival is the main contradiction and an irreconcilable contradiction.

Even those retro Confucian students who have any ideas in their hearts, no matter what the Strait of Malacca will not cause damage to the Ming Dynasty in the hands of Fanyi, they also have to consider today's scene, and if they talk nonsense, I am afraid that they will be accused of Yinjie Fanyi.

Of course, Shahmamat saw Ru Yi being dragged out, because Ru Yi kept yelling, Zhao Mengyou simply found a sock and stuffed it into Lu Yi's mouth, and he continued to speak wildly, Shah Mamat was extremely surprised, as far as he knew, after Da Ming changed from a conservative national policy to an open sea, he had never dragged out any envoy of Fanguo with socks.

What the hell is this Rui doing?

After Shahmatat was announced, he cautiously walked into the Imperial Palace, saluted very respectfully, did not dare to make any mistakes, and shouted in his ear: "Meet Your Majesty, Long live Your Majesty, Long live, Long live!" ”

Shahmat stayed in Daming for a year after entering the customs from Jiayu Pass, and only then did he complete the process of meeting the emperor and then came to Jingshi, and his Chinese language was excellent, and even idioms and colloquialisms could be correctly expressed.

"The Shah's envoy hasn't seen him for a long time, no need to be polite, please hurry up, this time the Shah's envoy has worked the horse boat." Zhu Yijun is a dog-faced! As soon as I saw a big customer, my face was full of smiles!

Shahmat's trip brought back 25,000 war horses to Daming, including 500 stallions, and there was no need to spend extra money!

"It's not hard, it's not hard, Your Majesty, Akbar the Great Trustee has brought the letter of state, and I ask Your Majesty to read it." Shahmat's heart when he mentioned his throat and eyes fell back into his stomach, the Ming Emperor is one more person, he is the emperor, so approachable, it must be the fault of that Ruyi.

Akbar's letter of state, according to a commercial tout, is full of praise for the five-masted ship, especially the Viceroy's Mansion saw the frightened face of the five-masted ship, which made Akbar very comfortable, and he hoped that there would be more five-masted ships to deter Tessie's red-haired fan.

The communication between Zhu Yijun and Shahmatat is very smooth, Shahmat does intend to live in Daming for a long time, he protested to the Ministry of Rites, the officials of Daming are too hardworking, he hopes to only look for him in odd days, and don't look for him in even days, he expressed surprise at the diligence of Ming officials.

It is not the diligence of the Ming officials, but the life of Shahmat, which is really enviable.

Qianmen Louzi listens to the commentary, and listens to it all day, that is, to go to the Siyi Pavilion to sit on duty, and also to go to rest for half a day and half a day, focusing on a relaxed freehand.

"Praise Your Majesty, Your Majesty's Huangzhuang's goods, it really opened my eyes, but unfortunately I don't know when to get the novelty goods." Shah Mamat was very satisfied with his shopping experience at the Royal Estate, and likewise, he was full of anticipation for the new goods.

"The Shah's envoy can buy a copy of the people's newspaper, which will publish the new Daming Emperor's Village, if the Shah's envoy wants to buy it, most of the goods will be left for the Shah's envoy, don't worry." Zhu Yijun was also very satisfied, and yesterday Shah Mamat spent 17,800 taels of silver in Huangzhuang.

"Thank you for the reminder." Shah bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, my monarch told me to maintain friendship with Your Majesty, in the hope of getting more five-masted ships, I wonder how much Ming can sell us this year?" Of course, it was still at the price of two hundred and fifty thousand silver. ”

"Five five-masted ships, Felipe II of Ctesy did not pay enough silver, he did not take the ten five-masted ships he had planned, only five of them, or borrowed silver." Zhu Yijun told Shah Mamat that the Mughal country's quota for this year is only five.

Daming's production capacity has been stretched to the limit.

"Thank you, Your Majesty for your generosity, and your benevolence will surely shine throughout the West." Shahmatat asked curiously, "Your Majesty, can you still borrow money here?" How is the interest paid? ”

Hubu Zuo Shilang stood up and explained Daming's borrowing policy to Shahmaiti a little, and the more Shahmamaiti listened, the more surprised he became, the words risk, extension, asset pledge, and sovereign pledge made Shahmamaiti can't help but break out in a cold sweat.

Borrowing money from His Majesty, at least several generations of people have to be used as cattle and horses for His Majesty to pay it off, and if it is not over, His Majesty's kindness of borrowing money is not over at all!

"Is the Shah's envoy interested?" Zhu Yijun asked eagerly.

"Your Majesty, the Mughal Kingdom is very rich, and I myself am not short of money." Shahmamat hurriedly refused, for fear that it would be too late to refuse, so the official pressed him to the ground on the spot and asked him to borrow money.

Zhu Yijun looked at Shahmat's back with great regret, the Shah's envoy left very resolutely, without any nostalgia, and he didn't even want to look back.

Zhu Yijun said helplessly: "Why doesn't he borrow a little?" He should have borrowed a little. ”

Then the envoys of Korea, Annam, Siam, and Tessi entered the Hajj to meet with them, and it took nearly an hour just to meet with the envoys from other countries.

"Your Majesty, Li Chengliang, Marquis of Ningyuan, arrived at Jimen yesterday." Tan Lun, the secretary of the Ministry of War, heard one thing, once in three years, Li Chengliang arrived at the time of entering Beijing to report on his work, Li Chengliang took a hundred personal guards, and had already arrived at Jimen, waiting for the will in Jimen, if His Majesty was not seen, Li Chengliang went to the Ministry of War to go around in a circle, and went back to Liaodong.

"Let Marquis Ning Yuan go to Beidaying to stay today, and announce it on a later day." Zhu Yijun thought about it, looked at Qi Jiguang and said with a smile: "Marquis Ning Yuan is coming from afar, Qi Shuai will definitely entertain him, and let Li Rusong go to Jizhou to pick up Marquis Ning Yuan into the camp." ”

"Obey." Qi Jiguang bowed to the leader's order.

"If there is something to do, it will be played early, and there will be nothing to retreat." Feng Bao saw that the hour was almost up, shook off the dust, took a step forward, and announced the successful conclusion of this great court meeting.

Zhu Yijun doesn't like the people of Rouyuan and cherishes the Confucian Nine Classics of the princes, but as a prince, Li Chengliang entered Beijing, and Zhu Yijun gave him enough face, because of the Liaodong problem, he had to count on Li Chengliang at this time.

After the end of the court meeting, Zhang Juzheng and Qi Jiguang were stopped by the small yellow gate, and led the two to the side of the small railway, the car driver was already waiting, and the Ming Emperor had already pedaled the landlubber to the Wenhua Palace.

Zhang Juzheng and Qi Jiguang went to the main hall, and were led to the side hall, in the side hall, there are still seven windows, Feng Bao took three small yellow doors to put the documents presented by His Majesty today into the third window, and the Ming Emperor stood on a huge map of Kanyu, standing with his hands in his hands.

"See Your Majesty, Your Majesty." Zhang Juzheng and Qi Jiguang bowed their heads and saluted.

"No courtesy." Zhu Yijun turned around and said with a smile: "Sit down and talk." ”

Zhu Yijun stood in front of the map, pointed to the place of the Old Port Propaganda Division, and planted a small red flag in his hand in the position of the Old Port, and then said with a relaxed face: "Zhang Yuanxun attacked the Old Port and won the Old Port Propaganda Division, which can be regarded as winning the initiative on the battlefield. ”

"According to the Songjiang Shipyard, the two five-masted ships deployed to Luzon this year have been surveyed at sea and can be deployed as scheduled in September."

Deng Zilong returned to Beijing, is to seek the support of the Ming Emperor, two five-masted ships, Zhu Yijun promised to deploy before September, Songjiang Shipyard built the ship, the C-type cross-ocean ship, is the warship used by the Ming Dynasty, the C-type five-masted cross-ocean ship, is a good thing that can not be bought with money.

Zhang Juzheng shook his sleeves, took out a book from it, and said with a smile on his face: "The surname Zhengmao sent the song, saying that the plantations in Nanyang have begun to make profits, and it is expected that there will be 720,000 silver this year, according to the original good 30% of the retention of Luzon, and about 500,000 silver will arrive in Beijing, including 200,000 silver, and 5 million catties of red copper will be delivered to Songjiang Mansion to mint copper coins." ”

Daming one tael of silver and twenty catties of copper, according to the market price of Daming, should have been four million catties, but Yin Zhengmao converted it according to the price of Luzon copper, so he delivered five million catties of red copper, and the five million catties of red copper were 1.6 million ingots, that is, 650 million copper coins.

Casting money is profitable, and private casting has become a trend, but private copper coins, most of them are flying money, thin iron money, not that the people of the Ming Dynasty do not want to use Tongbao, the Ming court used to cast up to 20,000 ingots of Tongbao a year, and it is an indisputable fact that there is no copper in the Ming Dynasty.

In Tongxiang Town of Luzon alone, there are 6.5 million catties of copper in a year.

"If you can, it would be best to exchange all the plantation for copper." Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Juzheng and said quite seriously.

"Your Majesty, the Luzon Governor's Mansion doesn't even have a single bronze artifact." Zhang Juzheng's meaning is very clear, it is not that the Luzon Governor's Mansion is disrespectful, but that Luzon is really gone, and Yin Zhengmao has done everything he can and done his best.

Li Yashi's judgment in the travelogue is correct, the purpose of the Ming Dynasty to open the sea is not exactly the same as that of Taixi, Taixi likes silver, while the Ming likes grain and copper.

"Uncle Huang said to me a few days ago that he hopes to send a few Gewu doctors and bring Gewu students to Nanyang to draw a map of Kanyu, this map is indeed bad." Zhu Yijun looked at the Kanyu map of Wanli Haitang, and also scratched his head for a while, on the Kanyu map, the area of Wanli Haitang is much smaller, and it is all based on the distance calculated by the water range, which is seriously distorted.

"The minister will arrange it." Zhang Juzheng is very concerned about this matter.

Especially the last time the doctors of Gewu used the triangulation method to draw the Kanyu map of the Northern Parallel Division, including Daningwei, Quanningwei, Yingchang and other places, Zhang Juzheng paid more attention to this, Confucianism does not teach geography, Zhang Juzheng used to think that the Northern Parallel Division and Shuntianfu were about the same, but after the picture was drawn, Zhang Juzheng was fooled!

(North Parallel Metropolitan Division)

I wish you all a happy new year, and in the new year, everyone will make a fortune.
