Chapter 1270 Lengtouqing, Zhu Di's Strategy

"I've seen Uncle."

Fang Xing hurried home early in the morning, just in time to meet Yu Qian visiting.

Yu Qian was wearing a green shirt, not an official uniform, and looked very relaxed.

_

"Is the family here?"

Fang Xing led him to the study, asking questions as he walked.

"Here it is, the family is reunited, and finally settled down."

Yu Qian was very relaxed, and when he entered the study, Fang Xing said unceremoniously: "I read the content of the test papers of your knowledge test and palace test, I'm stunned!"

"Shocking words in the imperial examination, you are still surprised in the palace examination, you didn't surprise the examiner and His Majesty, but you surprised yourself from the sixth place in the rural examination to the top three in the palace examination, almost went home and read it again, tell me, you think you did it right ?”

Xie Jin had no hope of returning to official career, so he pinned all his enthusiasm on Qian, who taught him a lot. It stands to reason that Yu Qian should know those taboo contents.

But on this issue, Yu Qian insisted on refusing to admit his mistake.

"Your Majesty thinks that since it's a palace test, His Majesty's imperial examination, you have to write down your own thoughts, so that you can be worthy of no shame."

This guy is still ignorant!

How could Lao Zhu have the heart to read the test papers one by one? At most, more than a dozen of them are selected to take a look, and generally the rankings set by the examiners will not be rejected.

"If you want your majesty to read your article, you have to wait until you are in the eyes of your majesty, and then your majesty will ask you to take your test papers for the general examination and palace examination for a closer look."

Yu Qian's lips trembled, and the image of the emperor's brilliance and martial arts suddenly collapsed in his mind.

"Your Majesty is busy with state affairs every day. If you take care of everything, it will be putting the cart before the horse. What do you think?"

Fang Xing felt that Yu Qian was still a bit idealistic, imagining the world too beautifully.

"Fortunately, I didn't give you an official position. Otherwise, with your ignorant temperament, you would either harm the common people or harm the superiors when you go out. You should learn from it."

Yu Qian sat and thought for a long time, finally got up, bowed and said: "Thank you uncle, I would like to be taught!"

Fang Xing knew that this guy was stubborn in the first place,

It definitely cannot be changed.

"You have to learn the ways of the world, go down and hang out with the common people more, and then you will know what kind of place Daming is."

Yu Qian read Fang Xing's book 'My Country' and admired his 'big talent', so he didn't feel disgusted by Fang Xing's scolding, and decided to go out often when he returned home.

When he reached the front yard, Xie Zhenliang came out in a hurry.

"Ting Yi and so on."

Xie Zhenliang grabbed a handful of treasures from his chest indiscriminately, and he couldn't count them correctly, so he fumbled for a while, and finally gave them all to Yu Qian.

"It's not easy to live in the capital. Your family has brought them here, and you rented a small yard yourself. It's definitely inconvenient to turn around. You keep the money. It's not for you, it's for you. It's for you to be an official in the future." Pay it back."

Xie Zhenliang didn't allow him to refuse, and ran away as soon as he stuffed the money, followed by a half-sized mountain dog, one person and one dog running fast.

Yu Qian took the money and suddenly smiled.

If Xie Zhenliang really wanted to subsidize him, then he would definitely not put money indiscriminately.

Thinking about the distance from the study to here, I walked slowly enough to take a shortcut with a knife and send the money to Xie Zhenliang. Then Xie Zhenliang was afraid that it would be too late, so he randomly stuffed the money into his arms...

Even paying attention to the method of sending money, I am worried that I will not accept it...

"Thank you Brother Zhenliang!"

Yu Qian cupped his hands, and strode away.

...

Zhu Di's health gradually improved, and he was able to get out of bed, but the imperial doctor didn't let him out of the palace, saying that the dryness of Beiping in autumn would make his condition worse.

And Fang Xing also patrolled around Donghua Gate every day, thinking about Zhang Shuhui at home.

"How much longer?"

Zhu Zhanji often sneaked over to chat with him, and the two found a place where no one was around, and then each took out delicious food for dinner.

Fang Xing likes the mutton in the palace the most, but Zhu Zhanji prefers Fang Xing's spicy sticks, so the two find the right food to start.

After eating for a while, Zhu Zhanji suddenly said: "Zheng He met with the emperor's grandfather earlier, and he had objections to some things about our going to sea this time."

Zheng He is Daming's expert on the South China Sea issue at this time. He said that if he has any objections, Zhu Di will definitely pay attention to them.

Fang Xing said proudly: "But now it's done, even if he goes down next year or the next year, he won't be able to change the current situation."

But Fang Xing's complacency didn't last long, and Zheng He came to find him.

"Xing Hebo, our family has no problem with Java being moved, but those Fan people don't want to move!"

Zheng He cupped his hands at Zhu Zhanji, and then said straightforwardly: "Our family wants to move a few times, but most of the surrounding countries are like this. If they move, they will arouse vigilance and even hostility. Xing Hebo's move is because Meng Lang gone."

Zhu Zhanji wanted to talk, but Fang Xing didn't want him to have conflicts with Zheng He. After all, Zheng He had traveled to the West during the Xuande period.

"What does Zheng Gong think about the future of Ming Dynasty?"

Fang Xing said with piercing eyes: "Da Ming's momentum will only become more and more prosperous, so what about the hostility of those countries? Could it be that if they are hostile, Da Ming will give up its expansion in the West? Whoever dares to be hostile to Da Ming will be an example to others!"

Zheng He listened with lowered eyes, and then said: "Our family doesn't know what the future of Ming Dynasty is. It's just that the South China Sea is far away from Daming. Unless it can emigrate and garrison a large number of troops, otherwise it will be causing trouble for ourselves."

As a representative of Ming Dynasty, Zheng He took a huge fleet to sea, and Zheng He was in a state of fear, so before making any decision, he always had to think twice, and the motto was - one more friend is better than one more enemy!

"Once Java is destroyed, Sumatra must be worried, and there may be some troubles in the future."

"Then take control there."

Zheng He looked at Zhu Zhanji in surprise, and immediately said, "Your Highness, this requires His Majesty's approval."

Zhu Zhanji's sharpness showed slightly, "Before going to sea, the emperor's grandfather promised to do things cheaply. The situation in the countries in the South China Sea is delicate, and Java dominates. Taking down Java will not only deter the countries, but also balance the power in the South China Sea. Da Ming only needs to If you have to deal with it one or two times, you won't be able to escape that strait."

"Otherwise, can such a large fleet go to sea only for trade and deterrence?"

Zheng He bowed his head and said: "Your Highness, this will encourage the ambitions of the Siamese. Once the Siamese control the strait, it will be a big trouble."

"That's why His Majesty ordered the army to go out from the southwest and directly attack Burma!"

Zheng He moved his body and looked up at Fang Xing.

Fang Xing nodded, "Myanmar is a small country, if His Majesty wants to move it, he only needs to let the Mu family eat it up step by step, no need for an army."

There is no doubt about Zhu Di's strategic ability, otherwise he would not have moved the capital to Beiping.

Myanmar often harassed the border, this is not a big deal, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and those Burmese chieftains thought that the Ming Dynasty would not work hard, so they came to attack the city from time to time to occupy land and plunder.

At this time, Myanmar is not good enough. In the future, they can even break through the city and start a fierce battle with the Ming army.

Zheng He only paid attention to the fleet and the sea for a long time, but he was a general after all, so he immediately realized it.

"To capture Burma, as long as the fleet goes to sea, Siam will be attacked from both sides. The second is Banggala. If it is well managed, Daming will not need to worry about threats from the sea."

Zhu Di's layout, how could he make a move without big gains!

With Myanmar in hand, Ming did not need to attack, and Siam and Bangkala would be restless.

Either completely surrender to Daming, or take back the claws and honestly farm at home.

"And Champa!"

Zheng He said with admiration: "Your Majesty is indeed wise. From now on, Champa will treat Daming like a parent. Otherwise, with just a hint, Siam will break through Chenla and approach the city!"
