On the ninth day of the eighth month, the crown prince Zhu Jianshen was congratulated by hundreds of civil and military officials in Fengtianmen.

In the afternoon, the emperor replied to the civil and military officials and rejected the request for a court meeting.

After being taught a strange lesson by Zhou Xu, a lecturer at Nanjing Hanlin Academy, Zhu Qiyu was possessed by Zhu Yijun and began to break the jar.

When the emperor is still angry every day, why bother. You don't like me anyway, and your hearts can't be warmed anyway, so I won't see you at all.

The year after tomorrow, after the end of the second imperial examination of the Jingtai Dynasty, these messy people all let them go home.

In Qingyun Pavilion, Zhu Qiyu took the four favorite concubines and drank tea leisurely with Pei Dang, Huang Qi, He Yi, and Gao Yao.

Zhu Qiyu squinted his eyes, leaned on the backrest relaxedly, and listened to He Yi talk about how to govern Annan, the four favorite concubines were lined up on the left and right, some pinched their shoulders, and some beat their legs.

He Yi was full of interest, and the more he talked, the happier he became: "Shengshang, first of all, the land ceded to Annan by Xuanmiao must be returned to the three provinces of Yunnan, Guangdong, and Guangxi.

Then, the Xin'an, Fenghua, Jianchang, and Jianping prefectures of Annam were assigned to Guangdong, the Langshan Prefecture, Langjiang Prefecture, and Taiyuan Prefecture were assigned to Guangxi, and the Xuanhua, Guihua, Jiaxing, and Guangwei Prefectures were assigned to Yunnan.

In this way, the three provinces of Yunnan, Guangdong, and Guangxi, from the government to the people, have the motivation to invest resources in the development of Annam.

The land of Annam can be completely consolidated, otherwise if the provincial boundaries are still divided as before, Yunnan, Guangdong, Guangxi and Annam will still be blocked by mountains, and there will be very little communication between them.

After a few decades, maybe the story of Xuanmiao will be repeated again. ”

Zhu Qiyu nodded: "Yes, it is equivalent to the four provinces of Yunnan, Guangdong, Guangxi, and Annan of the Ming Dynasty, and jointly govern and manage the original land of Annan, and we will feud five or six princes and divide the original land of Annan."

In 50 years, two generations, the rule can basically be secured. Alright, let's move on. ”

He Yi continued: "In the future, the provinces of Annan can recommend three students to enter the Guozijian every year; Each state may nominate two persons per year, and each county may nominate one per year.

This number is much higher than the quota given by Taizong that year, and in addition, each imperial examination will give at least 300 lifting places and 30 jinshi places to Annan Province.

This preferential treatment was maintained for at least five terms, and some of these people could serve as officials in Annam, as a way to win over Annam's scholars. ”

Zhu Qiyu nodded: "Yes." ”

"In recent years, floods, droughts, and locust plagues have continued to occur in various parts of Annam, and this is one of the main reasons why we have been able to recover Annam so smoothly.

The ministers thought that land should be allocated to the people of Annam, and all taxes and forced labor should be exempted within three years, and grain, seeds, and farming tools should be transported by the imperial court and distributed to the people of Annam free of charge. ”

Zhu Qiyu nodded again: "Yes, have all the countries such as Zhancheng and Zhenla withdrawn their troops?" ”

"As far as we have so far, these small countries have agreed to withdraw their troops. Although it is easy to ask God and it is difficult to send God, but we regained Annam in less than three months, which is really too scary, and these small countries are all shocked.

Moreover, Xu Youzhen agreed with them to take away the wealth and population plundered in the six provinces of Thanh Hoa, Yanzhou, Nghe An, Tan Binh, Hue and Shenghua in Annam, and they took a lot of benefits and readily agreed to withdraw their troops.

The Burmese, Mubang and other Tusi who sent troops together with Mu Lan, the chief military officer of Yunnan, took the silver and treasures given by Xu Youzhen, and had already returned the same way. ”

Zhu Qiyu said with a smile: "Okay, after these small countries and Tusi withdraw their troops, things will be much easier, and then the people will be settled in the realm, and they will all be handed over to Xu Youzhen and Yang Xinmin."

What did Hao Yi say? ”

Qianxue replied: "Hao Yi sent a secret report, saying that Jing'an Bo Wang Ji and Ningyang Hou Chen Mao, Baoding Bo Liang Xuan and Fang Ying reached a consensus to attack thousands of miles and completely capture Mengyang.

If the timing is right, it will also take the opportunity to capture Burma. ”

"Hahahaha, this Wang Ji, but he really knows how to play. Forget it, let him go. If I don't defeat Burma, I really can't settle Wang Ji and the army under his command.

Let this army come back, they are all loyal to the Emperor. Destroy them, the pattern is too low, then they are also my people in the end, and they have not yet appeared, so we can't kill people indiscriminately.

On top of that, Myanmar is a great place to have the teak that I desperately need.

With teak, I can build the best warship.

With the best ships, I was able to cross the sea and fight to defeat Japan. With Japan's silver mines, Yunnan and Luchuan's copper mines, there is no need to worry about money every day. ”

He Yi asked: "If Burma is defeated, then what if everyone in the south is in danger?" ”

Zhu Qiyu sneered: "What toast, there will be no toast in the future." I will destroy all the small countries in the south. Six southern provinces were then established, including Annam, Champong, Chenla, and Burma.

The strategic significance of these places is not yet visible to people today, but two hundred years from now, the world will suddenly become enlightened and look to my work. ”

Lin Xiangyu praised when she heard this: "Husband's vision, we really can't keep up. ”

Zhu Qiyu shook his head: "The predecessors planted trees, and the descendants enjoyed the shade, and I will do these things that others can't understand based on my responsible attitude towards the Han people."

As the emperor of the Han Dynasty, I have the obligation to eradicate hidden dangers in advance to avoid Han people becoming inferior people in the future. ”

There are some things that Zhu Qiyu can't say directly, and if he doesn't do something in advance, the people of later generations will be divided into nine classes, of which the Han people are ranked first.

Well, that's good, it's just backwards.

Everyone present was confused, but fortunately, this lovely Jingtai Emperor has always been absurd, and everyone is used to it.

At this time, Gao Yao opened his mouth and asked, "Holy Lord, where do you plan to set up the Annan Metropolitan Protectorate?" ”

Zhu Qiyu was asked: "This is a good question, in fact, I don't know where it should be." Located in Annan, Tokyo Ascending Dragon City still feels a little too far north.

Located in Siam, it is relatively aggressive, and can attack Burma to the west, Annam and Champa to the east, and control the sea trade routes to the south.

In this way, wherever there is a rebellion, it is convenient to suppress it.

The most important thing is that dozens of princes must be sealed to the south, each with one or three guards, and then cooperate with the imperial army to completely gain a foothold. ”

Hearing this, Lin Xiangyu and the other sisters began to cover their faces.

Zhu Qiyu smiled and waved his hand: "You don't have to be nervous, you can let Brother Fang be this fertility tool, we will give him hundreds of concubines, and then let him work hard." ”

Ning Xiang asked, "Is the King of Chu free?" Marry whomever you want? ”

Zhu Qiyu nodded very affirmatively: "Yes, I promised, in the future, your son will marry whoever he wants, and then he can accept a hundred concubines, or if he doesn't accept concubines, he can do whatever he likes." ”

Qianxue hurriedly asked, "What about King Wu and King Jin?" ”

"Like the King of Chu, they are all free, so let them like it."

Lin Xiangyu protested when she heard this: "The world where only Zhu Wenfang is injured alone has been reached, right?" ”

"Uh-huh, who made him the eldest son."

"The eldest son deserves to be bullied? Does it deserve to be used as a fertility tool? ”

Zhu Qiyu looked innocent: "I'll give him hundreds of concubines, this is called bullying him?" Then why don't you bully me? ”

He Yi stood up, pulled Gao Yao, looked at Pei Dang and Huang Qi again, and then the four of them quit knowing and knowingly.

Ning Xiang hugged Lin Xiangyu from behind, and said with a smile while untying the beauty's clothes: "We not only bullied Zhu Wenfang, but also humiliated Zhu Wenfang's biological mother."

After a while, my sister obediently lay on the table by the window, and you looked out the window at Kunming Lake and Wanshou Mountain, and we played with your body together. ”

Lin Xiangyu begged Zhu Qiyu for help: "Ning Xiang is mean to the slave family again, husband, look at her." ”

Zhu Qiyu smiled: "Let me see what she does, I want to see you humiliated now." ”

Qianxue took the initiative to add: "Feng'er doesn't need to beg me and Xi'er, both of us are Ningxiang's accomplices and accomplices." ”

"Why is it always me who gets hurt?"

Ning Xiang smiled: "Because you are the most beautiful, not to mention the husband, even we want to play with you, and we all want to see your shy expression." ”

Zhu Qiyu watched the three favorite concubines fiddle with their tools for a long time, and then came to them with a smile.

Looking at the mountain and running horses, watching the lake into the port, hearty, happy life.

Nothing to say for a day.

On the morning of the next day, Zhu Qiyu set up a family banquet and summoned Li Shulin of the Ministry of Works.

Zhu Qiyu had a very kind attitude, for fear of scaring the eldest grandson of the founding emperor of the Annam Hu Dynasty.

"Li Aiqing, now that Annan has recovered, do you want to go back to your hometown to see?"

I didn't expect the emperor to ask this question, Li Shulin hesitated, thought for a while, and then replied: "Holy Lord, Weichen really wants to go back, but he is afraid to go back." ”

"What do you mean?"
