The ministers were in an uproar, and several loyal ministers came out one after another, saying that Your Majesty is not allowed to be, and the country cannot be without a king for a day. It is really unwise for you to travel across the ocean, so you almost said that if you go to Japan for a year or two, the prince and His Highness of the Han Dynasty would probably have a quarrel in the country.

Zhu Di waved, "This matter is unquestionable, and you will retreat to the court."

...

...

Soon, a group of people was formed, with not many people, twenty-one.

One envoy.

Guard twenty.

In order to ensure that the envoys arrived in Japan safely, they would draw a warship of 200 materials from the navy to transport the twenty-one men. In fact, they were very dark-hearted, and the warship of 200 materials was relatively small. If the storm overturned in the sea, the delegation would not be able to reach Japan.

Since we cannot reach Japan, Japan will not know the Ming Dynasty’s edict of guilt.

But the Ming Dynasty issued an edict.

If Japan doesn't know, it won't reply, but the Ming Dynasty "doesn't know" and thinks it's your Ashikaga Yoshika despised me from the Ming Dynasty, and even thinks it's your Japan who killed my Ming mission.

So what else can I discuss when sending troops to fight you?

Moreover, the Ming Dynasty had the mental preparation for the mission to be killed by Japan, so the envoy was actually a minor official who was temporarily promoted from the Ministry of Rites, and temporarily granted a bunch of official positions to improve the rank. In addition, the Minister of Rites Lu Zhen also talked with the minor official, saying that Your Majesty had promised that as long as you can come back, a position of chief in the Ministry of Rites would definitely be safe. If you can't come back, your kid would have a honorary and a Jinshi in the future.

Similarly, the twenty guards were promised.

The mission set off soon.

Because of the grandson's wedding, many foreign envoys came to celebrate, such as Leli and Mahadevi, who came in person, including the Western side, and many kings brought their queens to "get more knowledge" in the Ming Dynasty.

The news spread quickly.

However, as the years approached, these envoys and kings and queens planned to return to their country after this year's tribute, so as not to go back and forth twice. Moreover, the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty was far greater than that of their own royal capital.

So Yingtian is very lively these days.

The Ministry of Rites is under the greatest pressure.

The Minister of Rites, Lu Zhen, became a dog, and then Lu Zhen keenly discovered a problem: many foreign kings and envoys secretly visited Duke Zhenxi, including Leli and Mahadevi.

These two people were the forces built by the Ming Dynasty in its expansion of territory and played an extremely important role in Jiaozhi and Angkor, so Lu Zhen did not dare to hide it and hurriedly reported to Zhu Di.

Zhu Di was playing chess with Zhu Zhanji at the right time. These days, the prince was in bed. Zhu Di personally took charge of the political affairs, so he took Zhu Zhanji aside and asked him to learn how to deal with it.

After hearing this, he smiled and said to Lu Zhen, "It's okay, Duke Zhenxi has already said it in advance."

He also said: "After Mahadevi and Lili asked me at dusk, I agreed. The Duke of Zhenxi invited these two to Huangfu. The main purpose was to ask these two to help Times Group recruit 大全彩 from Jiaozhi and Lancang to go to sea. I have no objection to this."

After Lu Zhen reported on the recent situation of missions from various countries and the Ministry of Rites' arrangements for missions from various countries during the Spring Festival, Zhu Di quickly issued instructions one by one, but finally said one thing.

He was going to inspect Zheng He's five steel warships before the end of the year.

Get the Ministry of Rites ready.

At that time, all the missions and envoys will go to Guangzhou with Zhu Di - there will be trains, and it will take only a few days to go back and forth.

This operation was proposed by Zhenxigong at dusk.

There is only one purpose: to promote the prestige of the Ming Dynasty, so that foreign envoys and kings, the queen knows how powerful the military strength of our Ming Dynasty is. If you are tactful, please return like North Korea as soon as possible, so that our Ming Dynasty can set up a general office in your country in advance to manage political affairs.

Well, in fact, the current territory of the Ming Dynasty has basically expanded outwardly.

Other places are colonial.

After all, setting up a chief executive in the farther West will basically not do cultural assimilation work. At most, it is to promote the Central Plains civilization and make them feel worshipful.

The most important thing is to plunder their resources.

There is another purpose.

The threats in the surrounding areas of China can be suppressed from the Ming Dynasty, and even eliminated. Once these operations are implemented, they are supplemented by a polar blueprint. I really didn't expect that after the 21st century, who else could threaten their prosperity and strength civilization in the country established by China and its own North American continent?

Lu Zhen hurriedly arranged related matters that should be under the responsibility of the Ministry of Rites.

Shortly after Lu Zhen left, Zheng He arrived.

After Zhu Di said this, Zheng He did not dare to neglect it. He hurriedly told Zhu Di that since this was the case, I would go back to Guangzhou first to prepare for this military exercise for the Navy. The time was urgent, and he also asked His Majesty to ask the Ministry of Works to urgently transfer a train to take Weichen to Guangzhou.

Zhu Di smiled and said that he had already arranged it for you, but before you set off, go to see Zhenxigong. He has many details to discuss with you about this military exercise.

He also said: "In addition, for this military exercise, the Ministry of War has been preparing to draw a large number of muskets from other places, about 20,000 to ensure that you have enough firearms in this military exercise."

Zheng He smiled and said, "That's great."

Zhu Di nodded, "Before you leave, go to contact the Ministry of War. The transportation of muskets and ammunition will be transported to Guangzhou as quickly as possible by trains and waterways. Well, don't worry, the Ministry of Works has built two more trains. Under full load, the transportation volume is extremely large, so before the military exercise, you will definitely be ready. For specific matters, you will go to Zhenxi Gong to discuss this military exercise. You and him will be responsible for this military exercise. However, Zhenxi Gong wants to go to Quanzhou with me first, so you will go to Zhenxi Gong today, prepare for the afternoon talk with him, and then set off to Guangzhou in the evening."

It is said that you two are responsible.

But I was going to Quanzhou at dusk, so the military exercise arrangement was arranged by both of you, and the real operation was Zheng He alone.

Zheng He had no objection.

Even if you can't find it.

If you have the opinion of Dusk, this military exercise will definitely be more successful. As for Your Majesty and Dusk to go to Quanzhou, Zheng He probably thought of the reason. Perhaps Your Majesty wanted that person to see the great national prestige of the Ming Dynasty before going to see Taizu.

To put it bluntly, this is the cause of His Majesty's vanity.

Of course, it was also the final handover between the uncle and nephew.

After Zheng He left, Zhu Di threw the chess piece, stood up and walked a few steps in the hall, and said to Zhu Zhanji: "The prince may have to stay in bed for five or six days. This time he goes to Guangzhou, you and the King of Han have to go, so the government affairs can only be handed over to the prince. When you go back, you tell the prince that I have compassion for him. After leaving, he will let him handle political affairs in the Eastern Palace and the State. Unless he can do something big, he may delay other matters, but his health is more important."

Zhu Zhanji quickly thanked the prince for his gratitude.
