Chapter 218: The ruler and his subjects decide the plan (Part 2)

Monk Daoyan was not afraid of Zhu Di getting angry. He said slowly: "Your Majesty, this matter can only be discussed for a long time. If Your Majesty's reputation is enough to shock the ministers at this moment, isn't it natural to move the capital as long as Your Majesty's order? After a few years, Your Majesty will accumulate his prestige in front of the ministers and the people. However, Yanjing City also needs to be renovated well, otherwise it will not be worthy of the title of this capital. Your Majesty's youth is just right, so how about it slowly, if it takes ten years?"

Seeing that Zhu Di's expression had calmed down, he immediately struck while the iron was hot and said, "Is this the world so unhurried, why should Your Majesty be angry?"

Monk Daoyan didn't see it. When he said that Zhu Di was young, Zhu Xi's face became ugly. Zhu Di was a congenital master, and it would be no problem to live for a hundred years. Zhu Xi was powerless. If Zhu Di could take over the throne a hundred years later... would he be able to survive until then? Even Zhu Di might not have the life of Zhu Di?

Zhu Di was happy. He kicked away the stone fragments that were smashed by him, walked to the steps and stood still, nodding and praised: "Master is right, come, come to my study, let's talk carefully. This is a matter of authority, hehe, even if the people are all full, they will not be afraid of me, right? Especially those pedantic literati ministers, no matter how careful I am in governing the world, they will only say that this is what I should do, so how can I be afraid of me?"

In the small study next to Zhu Di's bedroom, everyone sat down separately. Originally, the rule was that the ministers could not sit down unless the emperor gave you great grace. However, Shui Yuanzi ignored this and flew on a Taishi chair when he entered the door. Even if he didn't take Zhu Di's position, he would give Zhu Di a very good face. As for the kitten, he was careless and steadily pressed the Taishi chair and screamed. Zhu Di might as well be more generous and everyone would sit down to avoid the fact that he was like Zhu Di being favored.

Li Feng lowered his head strangely. Old Eunuch Lu was his adopted father. Now his adoptive father is standing on the ground and assigned the young eunuchs to serve tea and water. On the contrary, his adopted son is sitting here, which is really a bit strange. However, the royal family rules and there are so many strange things, so I don’t say much. It’s just that Li Feng is a little uncomfortable sitting by himself, but he will definitely not be able to stand up. Otherwise, Zhang Yu, who has a similar military rank to him, can only stand up?

Zhu Di was funny. He turned his head around and pretended not to see it. He casually said: "Mr. Lu, the matter here is almost done. You go out and do it. Well, go and urge the Tenglong Secret spy. Did Li Feng be the supervisor? They became bolder. After so long, they have not found Zhu Yunwen for me. Hey, hehe." He was giving a step to let the old eunuch out and busy, so that Li Feng would not sit there and the old eunuch Lu stood, and everyone felt uncomfortable.

Is there anything else that Old Eunuch Lu doesn't understand? He nodded with a smile, responded, gave Li Feng a very obscure look, and walked out in a daze.

At this moment, everyone felt relieved. Zhu Di said first: "Daoyan said it very reasonably. The capital move is related to the ten thousand years of foundation of our Ming Dynasty. We cannot be hasty. I think that no matter what the court officials think or what they say, the Yuan and Mongolian Tatars in the north are constantly fighting south. So I used this excuse to build the Great Wall first, then change the name of Yanjing City and start expanding it. When Yanjing City looks like a capital city, it will not be hasty to move it at that time."

Li Feng had to speak, and he was responsible for external information. He stood up and nodded and said, "Your Majesty said very well. Chi Menger and others were stubborn. Now they gathered more than 100,000 troops, yelling to break the Great Wall and go south again. If the area of ​​Juyongguan is in Juyongguan, the Great Wall is still strong, but if it is really a big fight, it is not enough for those barbarians to attack. Let's not talk about the Great Wall in other areas, which is already ruined. If it weren't for the steep mountains, the Tartars would have ridden over the mountain."

Shui Yuanzi muttered: "What's the point of riding a horse and climbing a mountain? I can even jump dozens of hills with a horse."

The kitten nodded and smiled at Shui Yuanzi. No one else paid attention to him. Shui Yuanzi was really bored sitting there. His eyes dripped for a while, and the stool under his butt moved a few feet away from the ground. He sat directly beside Zhu Di, grabbed the snacks, melon seeds and other things in front of Zhu Di, and started to eat.

Zhu Di was stunned for a moment and smiled helplessly: "Immortals eat slowly. These snacks are all specially made in the Forbidden Palace. They taste very good. Come on, please give them to the fairys..."

Shui Yuanzi raised a finger and said vaguely: "Don't have too much. I just ate buns in the morning. Isn't it still not yet? I'll make do with this snack for ten kilograms. After lunch, I'll go to the Hu merchants' guild halls to eat roast lamb. Oh, don't say that those Hu people are just living in the flock of sheep, that lamb is fragrant... Emperor, when will we go eat together? Don't worry, I think you look quite edible."

What is this? It seems like Zhu Di is like a bucket of rice. What does it mean to be very edible? But everyone knows that Shui Yuanzi is a powerful monk, and he is so old that no one cares about him, and he can't care about him. Is this very glorious if you are a big man and a child? Shui Yuanzi is so old that he lives as a dog at that age. He doesn't have any memory at all. He is an acquaintance who will not care about him.

Zhu Di pretended not to hear him and ordered: "Go, get ten kilograms of snacks, go quickly, if the imperial kitchen is gone, I will ask the imperial chef to make fresh." After a pause, I saw Shui Yuanzi crossing his legs and eating happily and not talking nonsense anymore. Then Zhu Di said to Li Feng: "Are those Tartars going to use force again? Well, I am afraid that they will not have the courage to provoke war again. They want to go south? No need to go south, I will bring my own troops to attack them."

Zhu Di said to Li Feng with praise: "The news from Li Qing's family is well grasped. It's very good. Sit down. When the spring of next year begins, all the sacrifices will be sacrificed and the scenes will be completed. I will personally fight to attack the remnants of the Yuan and Meng Party. Zhang Qing's family, the Qiqing's family, you must take care of the military affairs carefully. All the weapons and things must be prepared... Li Hu, can you be a vanguard officer at that time?"

The kitten raised his neck, stretched out his long arm, snatched a plate of snacks from Shui Yuanzi, and said with a humming voice: "Isn't it just a war to kill people? What's wrong? One is to kill one, and ten thousand are to kill them. Haha, kill him, blood flows into a river, and see how many of them are." After that, he opened his mouth and four pieces of meat cakes entered his mouth.

Li Feng glared out his eyes and kicked the kitten secretly. Zhu Di applauded and laughed: "Okay, you're so proud, good guys should do this. Hey, I personally led the army to fight, and it may not be possible to do anything about the Yuan Meng remnants, but I always have to teach them a lesson, kill them tens of thousands of strong men, and exchange them for a few years of peace. Hey, let those ministers see that the north is not peaceful, and then they will not be able to decide on the moving capital at that time."

Monk Daoyan smiled at the kitten, but the kitten only gave him a blank look. Just as the kitten looked to anyone, she was so rude and unwilling. Monk Daoyan didn't think it was a pestle and said with a smile: "Since Your Majesty decides to move the capital, some things must be arranged early. To be honest, today, the majority of people who are dissatisfied with Your Majesty still account for. They all think that Zhu Yunmin is the true dragon emperor."

Xiaoneng said carelessly: "This is easy to deal with, just kill it."

Zhu Di coughed, and Feng Neng immediately closed his mouth. Killing, it is easy to kill, killing all the people in the world, what is the point of doing this emperor? Is it very interesting to be alone? Zhu Di naturally could not agree with Feng Neng's method. He asked: "Well, Daoyan thinks, what should I do at this time?"

Monk Daoyan sneered: "What Your Majesty wants to do is to win people's hearts, establish authority in the world, and work together with two pairs. Just one kill, two cages, and three confusions can allow Your Majesty to control the hearts of the scholars in the world ten years. However, it is a bit troublesome to win the loyalty of the people in the world. These literati all know the benefits of high-ranking officials and generous salaries. As long as you give them a big cake to hang in the sky, they can chase them and chase them, and then have no other words to Your Majesty. But..."

Li Feng said, "But the common people in the world are very ignorant, and they may not be able to understand the great truth. As long as these people recognize a dead truth, no one except the gods and immortals can call them back." Li Feng smiled at the monk Daoyan and signaled that he was talking to him.

Monk Daoyan nodded and smiled, "Yes, what is really difficult to deal with is these ordinary people. Even if they dared not speak at that time, their resentment towards Your Majesty is in their hearts. After years of age, I am afraid that if someone uses Zhu Yunmin's name to deceive the people, the world will be in turmoil." Monk Daoyan chanted the Buddha's name together, with a compassionate heart.

Zhu Di frowned, picked up the teacup and took a sip of the tea, and whispered: "Then, can they do this?"

Li Feng had an idea and suddenly remembered the trick he played in Chengdu. He couldn't help but laugh and said, "Your Majesty, in fact, if you want the people in the world to be respectful of Your Majesty, you dare not have any blasphemy thoughts. This is also easy to do. It can even be said that the people are a real living god. In this way, this problem will be solved easily." Speaking of this, Li Feng paused for a moment and kept it a secret.

Sure enough, Zhu Di suddenly became interested and asked hurriedly: "Li Qing family, what kind of trick are you? If this can be done, the people of the world will eliminate the support for Zhu Yunmin and instead respect me, this will be your first great achievement."

Li Feng smiled sinisterly: "Didn't Your Majesty agree to the Taoist priests of the Kunlun Sect to overhaul Wudang Mountain to relieve Zhang Sanfeng's heart?"

Zhu Di nodded and said a little unhappily: "This is just a perfunctory statement. Hey, that old guy Zhang Sanfeng, I still have to cause trouble for him. How could I really repair Wudang Mountain for him? With this silver, I might as well build a few more sets of armor and cast more weapons. At that time, I can lead my men to kill the enemy for the country, and I can still win a great reputation."

Li Feng licked his lips and smiled strangely. He squinted his eyes and whispered: "Your Majesty is right, but if you do a little trick or a little while practicing Wudang Mountain, you may be the people of the world, but... Haha, especially the overhaul of Wudang Mountain, you can sell Zhang Sanfeng a favor. At least he is embarrassed to follow Zhu Yunwen again? In this way, as long as we can find Zhu Yunwen, we will no longer be afraid that Zhang Sanfeng will interfere in it."

Monk Daoyan nodded and asked with a strange look on his face: "Can Zhang Sanfeng afford to sell him a favor? But how can you make the people respect Your Majesty?"

Li Feng casually said: "Simplely, just carve the statue of Emperor Zhenwu into a similar shape as His Majesty."

Everyone in the study had a gloomy face, and Zhu Di jumped up suddenly, his face full of strangeness. After a long time, Zhu Di laughed wildly, his face full of joy. He walked to Li Feng, patted Li Feng's shoulder heavily, and praised: "Li Qing family, you are indeed smart and powerful. Hey, using my appearance to replace the appearance of a god, there is a lot to do. Hey, I understand what you mean, I want to show more signs to the civil servants, at least 300,000 people to overhaul Wudang Mountain, ha..."

He smiled: "At that time, at the consecration ceremony of the statue, let the people see that the appearance of the statue is what I look like. Hahaha, wouldn't they tell that I am the Emperor Zhenwu in the world? Miao, Miao, the incense in Wudang Mountain is the most prosperous, but believers tell each other that, in this way, hehe, do the people still have the truth that they are not afraid of me?"

He walked around the study excitedly, and praised repeatedly: "Yes, this idea is good, Li Qing's family, you have a good idea. Hey, gods, I am today, gods and immortals should also act according to my wishes." He suddenly took off a black jade dragon pendant from his waist and smiled and handed it to Li Feng: "I will give you this thing. In the future, I promise you to come and see me day and night. As long as there are important matters, I promise you to come in and out at will."

Li Feng quickly knelt down and took the jade pendant, and he had a face. Although being able to see Zhu Di at will was not a great power, it seemed to other ministers that this was of special significance. Being able to see Zhu Di at any time proved that Li Feng had become Zhu Di's absolute confidant. How much hidden power is there? As long as the news let other ministers know, even those top-notch officials who have been granted the title of Duke will be polite when they see Li Feng.

Zhang Yu, the expression of envy was unconcealed, but they were open-minded. Who said that he did not have the courageous and arbitrary idea of ​​Li Feng? Zhu Xi was beside him, showing a very happy expression. The more he was valued, the more he would help him. Zhu Xiba could not control Li Feng, so that it would be easier for him to become an emperor.

A group of people were in the study, and the monk Daoyan and Li Feng pondered and pondered over and over again. They thought about what Zhu Di said about the emperor's command in person. Before they knew it, it was late at night. The old guy Shui Yuanzi didn't know how much food he ate, but in the end he was so sleepy that he lay on Zhu Di's bookshelf and fell asleep. His snoring sounded, but no one paid attention to him.

Just as everyone was talking and the whole plan became clearer and clearer, the sound of light and powerful steps sounded, and horses and strodes walked in with big red robes. Li Feng suddenly realized that no wonder he returned to Yingtian Mansion this time and felt something was wrong, but he had never reacted. Now he remembered that after he came back for several days, why did Ma He, who had been inseparable from Zhu Di, have never seen anyone? Looking at Ma He's face now, it seems that he had been rushing a lot.

Seeing Mahe come in, Zhu Di immediately signaled Li Feng and the others to stop talking, and asked Mahe directly: "Ma Qing's family, how is the matter done this time?" Mahe had the title of General and was able to lead troops out of the battle, so unlike ordinary eunuchs, Zhu Di always called him Qing.

After Ma He knelt on the ground, kowtowed respectfully, he stood up and said, "Your Majesty, everything is in accordance with your will. The shipyards in Hangzhou, Quanzhou and Suzhou are working hard to build treasure ships suitable for ocean voyages. Now it is time to wait for the big wood in the northeast to transport it to the shipyard, but local officials have also ordered to speed up the progress. If it really doesn't work, you can also choose the good big wood from nearby prefectures and counties to replace it."

He breathed a sigh and said happily: "If everything goes well, in just over the years, this batch of treasure ships and supporting ships can be built. As long as the elite sailors are recruited and a navy army is trained, my Ming Navy can go straight to Southeast Asia and promote the glory of our heavenly dynasty."

Zhu Di suddenly punched the table and shouted: "Okay, thank you for your hard work in Ma Qing's family."

Li Feng, Xiaomao, Zhang Yu, Jianneng and others were confused when they heard this. Build a treasure ship? Going to Southeast Asia? What is this for?

Zhu Xi then chuckled and explained: "There have been a lot in the past few days, so I forgot to tell you that my father will send a navy to Southeast Asia to promote the prestige of our country and to intimidate the four barbarians."

Li Feng and the others were stunned and sent a large army to the South China Ocean? How long does it take to sail? Is it a good way to promote national prestige? Thinking about the barbarians in the South China Ocean, maybe they are the virtues of slashing and fire. When they saw the fleet of the Celestial Empire driving over, weren’t they scared to urinate and send people to pay tribute? As for the conservative ministers of the court, when they saw countless foreign envoys entering the court, were they still flattering and flattering the emperor?

It was indeed a good idea to shock the world. It seemed that before he discussed it with Li Feng and the others, Zhu Di had already had a solution.
