Taichang is going overseas again to conduct an imperial crusade. At this time, the atmosphere in the palace is very depressing.

There is no way, because every time he goes to the battle, it will take at least a few months or even a year, and there is a trend of getting longer and longer.

Several concubines couldn't stand it!

Over the years, he has fought Jiannu and beat pirates, fought pirates and fought Japan, fought Japan and the Netherlands, fought Donghu after fighting Donghu, and then ran to the New Jingzhou Prefecture south of the South Ocean. Not long after he returned from the New Jingzhou Prefecture, he ran to America, which is tens of thousands of miles away from the Ming Dynasty.

It can be said that he has been away from the palace for most of the years.

Moreover, he went out to fight every time, and the concubines not only missed him so much, but also worried him so much.

This kind of life is simply torment!

Therefore, every time he went out, the concubines were extremely reluctant and worried, and their sad little eyes were so heartbroken.

Taichang is most afraid of seeing such eyes.

However, every time he went out, he would try his best to accompany the concubines and princesses, especially during dinner, he would summon everyone to the Ganqing Palace to eat together.

In fact, he was extremely reluctant to leave!

There is no way. If he, the emperor, does not take action personally, many things will not be able to be done.

If he didn't take action himself, where did the Ming Dynasty come from the peace of the world?

When Jiannu invaded Liaodong on a large scale, if he had not led the army in person and had devoted all the Ming Dynasty to the decisive battle with Jiannu, Liaodong would have not been recovered at this time.

If he didn't take action himself, where did the huge territory come from the Ming Dynasty?

If he hadn't been against the public's objections, expanded his personal army madly, and destroyed Japan with the whole country's strength, the coast of Ming Dynasty would probably be full of pirates, Japanese pirates everywhere, and colonial robbers everywhere.

If he didn't take action himself, how could the Ming Dynasty have such sufficient resources?

Not to mention the North American continent, if he hadn't personally led the fleet to search, who would have found the New Jingzhou Prefecture and the New Yangzhou Prefecture in the vast sea!

Alas, he really has no choice!

If he was like Tianqi and Chongzhen in history, he stayed in the palace to command civil officials and generals to lead the army to fight, how could the Ming Dynasty be today?

Not to mention the ability of civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty, nor to say whether there would be anyone among the civil and military officials who were just doing things for their own selfishness. Just say that the vision is, who can compare with him?

Also, more importantly, who can compare power with him?

There are many things that he doesn't do in person if he doesn't do it.

Just like this time, who can he send to deal with South American affairs?

This time it was a major event that determined the entire world colonial pattern.

It can be said that at this moment more than 90% of the colonies in the world are in the hands of the Ming Dynasty, Portugal and Spain. If they are not done well, the European countries will gain enough colonies and even sufficient resources. The Ming Dynasty may be surrounded and beaten to death by these colonial robbers.

Who dares to make decisions about such a big thing?

He had to go!

Which wise rulers who created a prosperous era in history have lived in the palace to achieve great things?

Qin Emperor and Han Wu, Tang Emperor and Song ancestor, including Genghis Khan, who was not famous by personally leading the army?

The same is true for the Ming Dynasty. The reputation of Emperor Hongwu and Emperor Yongle was not born in the palace!

There was no way, in order to create a prosperous era and to conquer the world, he had to lead the army in person.

As for the concubines and princesses, he could only spend more time in the palace to spend with them.

That evening, in the imperial kitchen of the Ganqing Palace, he once again summoned a group of concubines and princesses to have a meal.

The dishes on the table were served, but everyone had no intention of moving their chopsticks at all.

Taichang looked at the concubines with sad and grieving eyes, so he could only pick up the chopsticks and said awkwardly: "It's almost dark, everyone hurry up and have a meal."

The imperial concubine Wu Wan'er just picked up the chopsticks, but her tears couldn't stop flowing out.

She couldn't help but choke and said, "Your Majesty, I heard that the place you are going this time is tens of thousands of miles away from the Ming Dynasty. It will take more than half a year just by going back and forth."

Uh, this one.

Taichang quickly comforted: "Wan'er, don't cry, I'll be back soon."

Wu Wan'er continued to choke and said, "It's very fast? Your Majesty, do you think it's one or two years or even three or four years? Your Majesty, do you know that every time you personally envoy us, we live like a year!"

How do you say this?

Taichang could only continue to comfort him: "Wan'er, don't worry, the world will be almost peaceful. At that time, I will be with you every day and I will not go anywhere."

Wu Wan'er said in a little despair: "Your Majesty, how fast will it be? Feng'er and the others are all six or seven years old. If you command the imperial army several times, they will marry and have children, and they will go with their husbands after getting married."

When Taichang heard this, his heart couldn't help but feel ache.

Since these children were born, he has not fulfilled his responsibilities as a father. He just feels that every time he comes back, these children have grown up a lot.

Perhaps, if he goes to war a few more times, these little princesses will be getting married!

Why is he working so hard to fight everywhere?

If it is for the people, he has done enough.

Perhaps, he should have considered it for his family.

He also told his subordinates that he could make innovations in everything he could, why did he have to stick to the rules?

Who stipulates that the emperor cannot bring concubines and princesses in person?

So what if he brings it!

The Ming Dynasty at this moment was not the Ming Dynasty during the Zhengorth period of Emperor Yingzong. Not to mention anything else, no one could break the defenses of the Dreadnought and ASCH ships.

What's there to be afraid of?

Besides, he is not a cowardly emperor who relies on eunuchs to command the army like Yingzong. No one can do anything to make trouble for him.

He can make the decision on the things on the battlefield!

This strategy is not about fighting with people, there will be no danger at all.

Thinking of this, he suddenly smiled and said, "Wan'er, don't do this, I didn't say I won't take you with me."

ah!

As soon as he said this, the concubines were filled with surprise.

Wu Wan'er couldn't help but tremble: "Your Majesty, what do you mean, take us to America this time?"

Yes, what's wrong with taking you there!

Taichang nodded slowly and said, "Yes, this time I will take you to America and the whole family will go together!"

OK!

Wu Wan'er couldn't help but cheer, and the other concubines were full of surprise.

Especially Su Concubine Su Yi, she really didn't expect that she would be able to return to her parents' home so soon, and she thought she would never have the chance to go back in her life.

Taichang was in a good mood after making this decision.

He originally wanted to solve the American problems as soon as possible during this trip and came back.

The problem is that no matter how fast he is, it will take more than half a year to fight back and forth from South America. Moreover, the strategy he has set is not a quick battle strategy.

To be honest, this time it really concerns the pattern of the entire world colonies, and even the pattern of the entire continent.

If he wants this strategy to be successfully completed, it is best to take it slowly according to the development of the situation, try to use various means to provoke wars among continental countries, and consume the strength of continental countries as much as possible.

The problem is that he misses his family, and he also wants to come back soon. He doesn’t want to fight this battle for one or two years or even two or three years!

He has been struggling about this these days. Now, he will take a group of concubines and the princess with him, so he doesn't have to worry about the time.

Anyway, the whole family is together, it doesn’t matter how long this battle lasts.

Of course, if you want to take a group of concubines and princesses to America for a few years, you can't just leave.

If he is alone, he can set off with all his troops, food, supplies and supplies.

This time I can’t be so bachelor with my whole family.

At least, the daily necessities of concubines and princesses have to be brought with them. There are ready-made items in these palaces, so he cannot go to America to buy new ones.

There is not as developed as the Ming Dynasty, and many things cannot be purchased.

There are also palace maids and eunuchs, and even the Jinyiwei should consider bringing more.

After counting this, I don’t know how many wolf-toothed warships are needed to load them.

The next morning, he issued an order and ordered the navy to drive a hundred wolf-toothed warships to wait in Taiye Pool.

Immediately afterwards, the palace began to move.

Hundreds of palace maids and thousands of eunuchs kept moving things to the Wolf-Tooth Warship, and the imperial palace and Taiye Pond were almost connected in a line.

After the morning court, Prince Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but be curious and hurried to the dock next to Yudai Bridge.

Taichang is arranging personnel there now.

Last time he took Wang Chengen and Liu Shiyou to America, so he must have a rotation this time. Considering Wang Chengen's ability and the relationship between this guy and the prince, he decided to keep Wang Chengen to assist Prince Zhu Youxiao.
