729 The Blood Debt
In later generations, Emperor Chongzhen was very angry whenever he saw overseas Chinese being bullied by Western barbarians and natives. It was also because of this that he particularly admired the glory of the powerful Han and prosperous Tang Dynasty.
Now, he has traveled through time to become the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, determined to revive the Ming Dynasty, recast the glory of the Eastern Empire, and always keep this ancient empire standing on the top of the world.
However, what he never expected was that reality slapped him in the face. The Spaniards on Luzon slaughtered the Ming people a few times before they settled the score with them, but when he was the emperor, they slaughtered the Ming people in Luzon again.
This kind of thing is unbearable for both uncle and aunt!
Needless to say, Emperor Chongzhen was immediately furious and immediately summoned all his ministers to Wuying Hall.
The ministers who were suddenly summoned to meet were hurriedly inside and saw that there were both civil and military officials. They learned from the eunuch who was sent to the imperial eunuch in private that when the emperor was furious, they could not help but worry.
In Wuying Hall, the ministers were waiting for the emperor and couldn't help but whisper.
"Can it be that there was a reply from the Mongolian Anti-Lat tribe in the western part of the United States? Could it be that they refused to submit?"
"This is impossible. The cabinet has not received any relevant information!"
"The Ministry of Rites has not received it. According to the distance, it is estimated that the road is blocked with heavy snow at this time. If there is news, it has been waiting for the next year!"
"Is it possible that Gushikhan from Wusizang Xuanweisi Department killed the angel?"
"Don't guess. If this is the case, the cabinet will definitely receive the news!"
"Yes, the Ministry of War will know about this, but it's all very calm!"
"Yes, not only does there not be any news from these two places, but there is even no bad news in other places. Liaodong, North Korea, Japan, Togo, Annan, etc. are all good news!"
“…”
After guessing, they couldn't guess thoroughly. I wonder why the emperor was furious?
While discussing, the voice of "The Emperor is here" immediately calmed down in Wenhua Hall.
Emperor Chongzhen strode into the back hall. When the ministers were present, they secretly looked at the emperor and found that the emperor was indeed angry. Suddenly, they all held their breath one by one, dared not make the emperor unhappy.
Emperor Chongzhen suppressed his anger and let them calm down, and immediately said straight to the point: "I just took a nap and dreamed that Taizu told him to warn that tens of thousands of Ming people in Luzon were slaughtered by Western barbarians again, and blood flowed into a river. You don't have to doubt it, Taizu said that this matter is true. If I remember correctly this incident of bullying me, the Ming Dynasty, is already the fourth time..."
Hearing this, the ministers in Wuying Hall couldn't help but look at each other. Such a big fight was just because the emperor had a dream, this...
They are all a little speechless, just dreaming, no matter how realistic the dream is, it is still a dream!
I'm afraid I'll think about it every day and dream about it at night?
Of course, some ministers don’t think so. Because this is actually a dream for Taizu!
This Taizu's dream is so amazing!
Before the eleventh year of Chongzhen, most of them knew what kind of person the emperor was today. However, since that time when Taizu held a dream, the emperor had become wise and powerful, became the emperor of the ages, and became glorious again with the Ming Dynasty.
Being skeptical is what most of the ministers in Wuying Hall think at this time.
However, Emperor Chongzhen ignored them and his tone became fierce, and he shouted loudly: "I once said that those who dare to offend the Ming Dynasty will be punished even if they are far away! My people, no matter where they are, are my people! Do you think I am a mud when you dare to kill my people so unscrupulously?"
In the furious emperor, the dragon power appeared, and all the ministers in Wuying Palace felt invisible pressure. For a moment, no one dared to think about it again. The emperor just had a dream.
The Wuying Palace was very quiet, with only the angry voice of Emperor Chongzhen.
"Tell me my will!" Emperor Chongzhen ordered, "I ordered the governor of Fujian to send troops from Taiwan and the Ming army stationed in Annan to fight from Annan. They were all led by the commander of Bolu Xiangsheng from Liaodong. They attacked Luzon and killed all the Western barbarians in Luzon. If they fled, they would chase them to the ends of the world. Even if they were to chase them to the ends of the earth, they would kill them to the end. Many local people who helped the evildoers killed them. I want everyone in the world to remember that they would pay their blood debts and blood debts!"
If they were either too much for a tit, or condemn or negotiated again, those vicious people would not be afraid or remembered. Only when they hurt them and even if they had a little bit of similar thoughts, they would think of Luzon's lessons and could not bear the consequences, so they would not dare to do similar things again.
This imperial edict can be said to be a murderous imperial edict. The many ministers in the Wuying Hall were awe-inspiring for a while. At this time, they all remembered that the current emperor was not just the emperor, but also the commander who was used to life and death in battles.
Some ministers were originally thinking about whether to advise the emperor, after all, it was just a dream. Even if it was really Taizu's dream, such a big thing would be issued without waiting for the local report. Wouldn't it be too hasty? What if we find that the Western barbarians in Luzon did not massacre the Ming people there?
However, Emperor Chongzhen is now speaking with a firm and murderous intent. Those present, including the "stones in the pit", dare not rebel against the emperor's intentions.
In Wuying Hall, there was only Emperor Chongzhen's voice. At this time, he turned to look at Xue Guoguan and gave a serious expression: "My decree is issued by the Ming decree. In addition, the cabinet will draw a manifesto to spread it all over the world and let the world know the evil deeds of the Western barbarians!"
When Xue Guoguan heard this, he was a little stunned.
It is okay to have the Ming Dynasty’s order to spread the world. But if he wants to draw another manifesto, if the Western barbarians on Luzon are not massacred, such a big mistake will be caused, how can the Ming Dynasty bear the feelings, and how can the chief assistant bear the feelings, it will probably become a laughing stock of a generation!
However, Emperor Chongzhen was staring at him at this time, and his erectionary momentum did not give his ministers a chance to refuse. Xue Guoguan had no choice but to receive the order.
But how could a living person be suffocated to death by being urinated?
After Xue Guoguan and others returned to the cabinet, they discussed it for a little while and a manifesto came out. However, although this manifesto was written according to the intention of Emperor Chongzhen, it did not clearly state that the Western Yi of Luzon had just massacred the Ming people, but instead accused the Ming people several times since the 31st year of Wanli.
In this way, if the Luzon massacre told by Taizu in his dream is not true, it doesn’t matter. Who told you, the Western Liberation of Luzon to raise a knife to kill the people of the Ming Dynasty several times in the past? It’s not that you don’t repay you, but that’s not the time, now it’s the time to retribution!
If the thing Taizu told the dream was true, then this manifesto was not wrong, it was to retaliate against the Western barbarians' massacre of the Ming people.
Of course, this manifesto would be read by Emperor Chongzhen first and agreed. Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen could see the "makes" in it at a glance. But he did not explain it and agreed directly.
In fact, Emperor Chongzhen knew very well that he had once again used the excuse of Taizu sending a dream to decide this matter in advance, which would probably make people disbelief. However, after returning to Lu Xiangsheng's urgent memorial, he could prove to the world that Taizu sent a dream to the world that the incident was true.
So in this way, the dream of Taizu that he had had before was true, of course!
…………
On that day, the imperial edict and manifesto were announced to the world together. It can be said that the world was shocked when it heard it.
Some of them were shocked by the emperor and actually had Taizu dreams again? Some of them expressed regret for the emperor's great war because of his dreams.
However, as far as the Ming Dynasty was concerned, more people were very welcome to Emperor Chongzhen’s decree.
Most of the people who went south to make a living were from the south, most of which were from Fujian and Guangdong.
From the massacre that began during the Wanli period, at the beginning, not only did the Spanish worry about the revenge of the Ming court, but even the people of the Ming Dynasty themselves also hoped that the court could uphold justice.
However, the result was that the Spaniards breathed a sigh of relief and became more and more unscrupulous; while the people of the Ming Dynasty were very disappointed and finally even more desperate.
The slogan "Those who dare to offend the Ming Dynasty will be punished even if they are far away" that Emperor Chongzhen shouted was more familiar to the people in the north. However, the people in the south rarely heard of it. Even if they heard of it, they did not expect that the emperor would really send troops to Nanyang to avenge the people of the Ming Dynasty!
Now, as Emperor Chongzhen’s decree was issued, especially when they had no hope for the court, this surprise was indescribable!
Another point is that there are many merchants in the south, and Emperor Wanli’s previous disposal opinion was that merchants were untouchables, not to mention that those merchants left the Ming Dynasty privately, were no longer considered the people of the Ming Dynasty, so they ignored them at all.
But now, Emperor Chongzhen not only made it clear that my people, no matter where they are, were my people! He also directly sent troops to destroy the Western barbarians in Luzon, and also helped the evil people to avenge the murdered Ming people!
For southern merchants, if this matter is true, then if they go overseas to do business in the future, they will have enough confidence in their hearts. Because they know that behind them, there is a strong backing, that is the Ming Dynasty!
From then on, when they go to sea, they no longer have to beg for others to beg for help; their backs will become hard from this time. Whoever dares to bully them will be the court that will make the decision for them!
Against this background, with Lu Xiangsheng's urgent memorial sent all the way north, the people along the way soon realized that it was really happening in Luzon that the Western barbarians massacred the Ming people!
To be honest, since I heard about this, everyone believed in the existence of my ancestors, and many unworthy descendants dared not be disrespectful to their ancestors.
