Chapter 1265: Lion King 1 Wakes up, 0 Beast Panics
"...Java repeatedly bullied the old port, and the surrounding small countries were silent. When the grandson arrived, Vikrama avoided seeing him, and the grandson immediately ordered the fleet to set off, and the enemy was defeated in one battle..."
In the bedroom, Concubine Wang Guifei sat by the bed with Wanwan in her arms and listened, only feeling fascinated.
"...The local situation is complicated. The descendants of the Tianfang people have a high status. After the grandson defeated the rebels, he made some adjustments. The Han people are the first..."
Zhu Di squinted his eyes, clenched his right hand from time to time, and then relaxed.
Zhu Gaochi stood with his eyes downcast, his body shaking a little.
But Yang Rong and the others had different complexions, feeling a little depressed about Zhu Zhanji's way of doing things.
Destroying Java with just a word of disagreement, this style of behavior is more domineering than Zhu Di!
"...When I came back, my grandson went to Luzon to have a look. At present, most of them are natives, so I sent some weapons to the local Han people, and left a small banner department there to train the local Han people full-time."
After Zhu Zhanji finished speaking, Zhu Di said: "You are covered in dust, go to the back and wash before coming back."
Tut tut! This kind of treatment is only available to Zhu Zhanji, and even Zhu Gaochi can only watch it.
In Zhu Di's harem, people with business affairs don't even think about taking a step, let alone go to the back to wash up. After the front feet have been washed, the back feet have to go to Xishi to wash their heads.
"Your Majesty, Jubao Mountain Guard and Suzaku Guard are already in place."
The eunuch came in and reported.
Zhu Di's eyes were instantly cold: "Are those rebellious officials and thieves timid?"
At this time, the reason why Zhu Di hesitated about the musket equipment came out.
If Yanshan Zuowei is equipped with all firearms today, there must be blood flowing at Donghuamen.
"Stand back, let Fang wake up and see me."
...
When Fang Xing arrived, Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Zhanji and his son were all in the bedroom, Fang Xing couldn't help feeling relieved.
This is a good thing!
If only Zhu Zhanji was there, Fang Xing worried that after Zhu Gaochi took over,
Zhu Zhanji's life is not easy.
"What do you think of overseas?"
Zhu Di probably slept for a long time, so he was extra energetic, which made Fang Xing worry about whether he would return to the light.
Zhu Gaochi's eyes turned, Fang Xing and Zhu Zhanji looked at each other, wanting to exchange some information.
"There is no outsider here, what are you trying to hide? Say it!" Zhu Di frowned.
Fang Xing said embarrassingly: "Your Majesty, most of the people in the Old Port area are natives, but they guard the entrance of Daming. If they don't control it, the navy of Daming will only be able to wander in the inland river."
"Once Java is gone, there are Sumatra and Managa around the old port, which will become a disaster sooner or later. Your Majesty, you should take it slowly."
Zhu Gaochi lowered his eyes, but he held his hand tightly.
Zhu Di asked, "Are you still saying between countries?"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Fang Xing said firmly: "There will be no long-term peace or conquest between countries. The only thing that can be connected is interests. Just like those small countries paying tribute frequently, why? Could it be that they are really devoted to Ming?"
Zhu Di snorted coldly: "You don't need to say this, I know."
Zhu Di was annoyed by those small countries coming to take advantage, and finally reduced the size and number of missions.
It's just a matter of face. As a central country, if there is no grand occasion of paying tribute, how can it prove its strength?
"Your Majesty, Siam is also eyeing the strait. It is only because of the strength of Ming Dynasty at this time that it was frightened by the fleet, so they withdrew their claws. However, they are still constantly at odds with Chenla, and their ambitions are not small. As for Champa , a small country with few people.”
"Your Majesty, the strait is very narrow. If you build a castle by the sea, the sea route will basically be blocked."
Fang Xing saw the sheepskin map in Zhu Di's hand, and said, "Whether it's offensive or defensive, this strait must not be lost, it's Daming's throat!"
The route to Europe can be clearly seen from the map, but the channel ends abruptly at the end, and a big bend must be made.
"If you can get through that strait, you can go directly to those countries."
Zhu Di felt a little regretful, because the map clearly marked the direction. If Zheng He had gone a little further, it would have been a new discovery.
"Too far!"
This big bend is too big, and the fleet set off, the future is uncertain.
That's the Suez Canal!
Fang Xing secretly shouted in his heart, but the countries along the coast need to be conquered, otherwise this strait does not belong to Daming.
However, the English people can travel all over the world, and the land and resources are even bigger. Why can't the populous Ming Dynasty do it?
And this needs to mobilize the power of the entire Ming Dynasty and form a consensus from top to bottom.
Remembering that Zhu Di was just sick, it caused such a big panic, if there is another big move...
"How about those countries?"
Zhu Di asked habitually.
"Your Majesty, the meat-misering country is recovering, and the surrounding countries are facing great enemies. If they want to expand to Daming, they will encounter the country of Halle. It is said that the king of the meat-misering country was captured by the country of Halle last time, so Meat Lost Country is a bit apprehensive, they want to expand in the west compared to the long and barren eastward route, at least they won't look east until they are full."
If the Ottoman Empire goes east again, those Western countries will definitely form a coalition again, and attack back and forth with the Timurid Empire, killing this formidable big guy in one fell swoop.
Zhu Di carefully looked at the map, nodded and said: "Yes, obviously the harvest in the west will be greater. As for the country of Harleigh...their old lord wanted to invade Daming when I had a weak foothold, and I couldn't wait to prepare to fight this It is a pity that a powerful opponent has fought, but it is a pity that he left halfway. Now that I have swept the grassland, do his children and grandchildren feel chills down their backs? Hahahaha!"
Zhu Di's heroic laughter was interrupted by coughing, and the imperial doctor hurried forward to persuade him to rest.
Zhu Di followed the advice, Fang Xing and others withdrew.
At the entrance of the bedroom, Zhu Gaochi looked into the distance, and said calmly: "You stay and take care of your grandfather, and go back to handle political affairs for your father."
"Yes, father."
Zhu Zhanji respectfully agreed, and sent Zhu Gaochi away with Fang Xing.
When Zhu Di fell, all political affairs were gathered at Zhu Gaochi's disposal. Except for the important matters that had to wait for Zhu Di's instructions, there was not much difference between him and the emperor.
After Zhu Gaochi was sent away, Fang Xing was going to Donghuamen, and his life was not easy. Before Zhu Di sent to take over the army, he and Jubaoshanwei had to stay there.
"Grandpa Huang has just woken up, and many things are complicated, so take your time."
Zhu Zhanji vaguely stated Zhu Di's situation at the moment: Suspicion!
Fang Xing nodded, saw Wanwan looking at the door of the bedroom, smiled at her, then turned and went back.
"Brother, there is so much chaos in the Heavenly Palace these days. I heard that someone burned the house at my father's side. Well, I don't know who did it. My mother has been praying for the emperor's grandfather all day long, and my father has been dealing with political affairs all day long..."
Wanwan's big eyes flashed with exhaustion, and her crisp voice was pleasant, but Zhu Zhanji felt guilty.
"It will be fine, Grandpa Huang has woken up, and he will be able to rejoin the board of directors soon, Wanwan..."
Zhu Zhanji touched the top of Wanwan's head, and said solemnly: "You are well, elder brother will take care of you in the future, definitely will."
Wanwan raised her head in confusion, the setting sun shone on her purple clothes, like a girl walking out of a painting.
The eunuch stood on the steps, looking at the brother and sister under the setting sun, his numb heart felt warmer.
The news of Zhu Di's waking up was specially released by Concubine Wang, and the people in the palace immediately had a backbone, and the entire imperial city became orderly.
No one dares to make mistakes at this time.
