Chapter 137: The King of Yue's Expectations
Chapter 137 The Expectation of King Yue
King Yi, King Ying, King Tibetan, and King Yue have been there for a long time.
Zhu Qizhen has not been seen before.
However, Zhu Qizhen did not talk to his sons about the fiefdom. After all, this time Zhu Qizhen dealt with the vassal kings, and the sons came back just a match.
They could not oppose Zhu Qizhen at all.
Whether it is in the relationship between father and son or their power base.
Compared to the vassal kings of the Taizu lineage who had been passed down for several generations and had his potential to penetrate into the local area, Zhu Qizhen's four sons were too young, only about thirty years old. They were only a few years old in the fiefdom.
They could not escape Zhu Qizhen's influence.
Therefore, even based on political reality, they would not be able to do this with Zhu Qizhen.
Between priorities, their situation in the fiefdom is just the lightest, and compared with the overall situation of the world, it is not worth mentioning at all.
Now the overall situation has almost been finalized.
Zhu Qizhen also has time to ask his son how he is in the fiefdom?
Zhu Qizhen didn't know anything about their sons, but he always asked them to say it in person.
It’s like a teacher checking homework. They explain their situation one by one in an orderly order of seniority and young age.
The first thing we are talking about is the second son of the emperor, King Yue.
King Yue said, "Father, Qinghua has now settled, and the remnants of Annan have been cleaned up by my sons. The people of Qinghua support the Ming Dynasty, just like other prefectures in Jiaozhi. My sons are also vigorously promoting education in Qinghua, abolishing the Nanwen, and those who dare to use the Nanwen as their literary works will be killed. I believe that only two generations of people, Qinghua is the land of my Ming Dynasty, and will never change."
When King Yue talked about these things, he couldn't help but use his fingers to silently use his wrists.
There was a knife mark there.
The King of Yue said it easy, but it is not too easy to do.
Qinghua is the place where the Li family in Annan is hidden, just like Emperor Taizong of Beijing. It can be said that it has been in operation for a long time. After several generations of grace, there are many people who are willing to die for the Li family.
Qinghua is also the place where the last battle was located in the Battle of Annan.
At that time, the Shenglong had been broken, the Lord of Annan had already set himself on fire, and the situation of the war was no longer possible. However, even in this hopeless situation, the people of Qinghua had already supported the Li family and fought with the Ming Dynasty.
This shows that the Qinghua people were loyal to the Annan Li family.
Even after Qinghua was occupied by the Ming army, it was the place where the resistance was the most intense.
When the King of Yue was guarding this place, the prince and Han Yong had already cleaned up a group of the toughest rebels. But it did not mean that the King of Yue was safe and without danger.
Even the opposite is true.
When the war is really fought, as long as the army is not wiped out, as the commander, there will be no major problems. However, the remnants of the Li family have changed from open to dark. That is the way to prevent it.
King Yue was assassinated countless times because of various things.
This time the scar on the wrist almost digged the entire arm from the middle. If King Yue took off his shirt, he would see that the wounds stretched more than a foot long on his arm, as ferocious as centipedes.
Although King Yue did not say anything, how could Zhu Qizhen, the father, not know about some things?
Zhu Qizhen said: "Thank you for your hard work, but you can leave other things alone, but you must not be ruthless in the matter of nanwen. No matter who you have to do with the government, you can deal with it strictly," he said.
The so-called lanwen is one of the predecessors of Vietnamese characters in later generations.
During the Li Dynasty, it was vigorously promoted. If the Ming Dynasty wanted to maintain long-term stability in Southeast Asia, it was something that must be cleaned up. The same was true for the Ming Dynasty's rule in North Korea.
The predecessor of Korean, namely, Yanwen, also handled this way. However, compared to Nanwen, the history of Yanwen is a little shorter. It was created by King Sejong of Korea, and now it has only been a few decades.
The creation of King Sejong of Korea itself did not use him as an official text. The Korean government text has always been in Chinese. In Annan, the Li family has been promoting it, writing in Nang, and even writing poetry.
"The child understands." said the King of Yue: "The child must do this, but the child has already cleared everything, and the child has no effect in the cleansing. He is willing to serve his father and be in the south of the ocean."
As Zhu Qizhen's son, King Yue certainly had the intention of considering Zhu Qizhen, but also had the intention of considering his descendants.
After this time of relocation of the vassal kings, the future policy of the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty was undoubtedly confirmed.
Although Qinghua is a new place, Annan is different from other countries in Nanyang after all. Annan has always been in the Chinese cultural circle.
And as time goes by, the remnants of the Li family have been almost cleaned up.
King Yue knew very well that after about one or two generations, the situation of Qinghua was similar to that in the mainland.
But Qinghua really has no room for development.
The terrain of Qinghua is semi-closed, almost a basin. Except for the plains to the east, the rest of the places are mountains. Although it is Laos to cross the mountains, it is difficult to pass the mountain. It is difficult to expand towards Laos.
Now the father is in power, and it’s easy to talk, but he has to consider it for the future.
After all, the position of the prince has been determined long ago.
When he was there, he was a brother of the prince and could maintain a relationship, but after two or three generations, he would definitely be like the current Taizu lineage, and he would be removed from his vassal state.
By then, all the treatment he enjoys now will no longer exist. There may not even be any new fiefdom.
Instead of doing this, it is better to prepare for the future.
Anyway, he is still young and has experienced it once, so he doesn't feel that the countries in Southeast Asia are more difficult to deal with than the remnants of the Li family.
It's better to take advantage of this time to raise it.
After hearing this, Zhu Qizhen thought for a moment and then understood the thoughts of King Yue. He sighed slightly in his heart and said, "Okay, let me agree, but there are some priorities. You should prepare after you go back. However, the premise of all this is to clear everything and everything is safe."
When Zhu Qizhen's son faced Zhu Qizhen, he was both a son and a minister. When Zhu Qizhen faced his sons, he was also both a father and a monarch.
Without violating the court's major policies, Zhu Qizhen was also willing to give some benefits to his sons.
Although there are more than a dozen princes of the Taizu lineage, deep down in Zhu Qizhen's heart, it is best to become a vassal state of the Nanyang vassal state in the future, and it is best to be his own sons.
This is also a little selfish as a father.
Moreover, King Yue’s mission in Qinghua was also completed. If he had no such intention and wanted to be the Prince of Taiping, Zhu Qizhen would not have much trouble. However, since he had this intention, how could a father not do anything?
After hearing this, the King of Yue was overjoyed and said, "My son thanked my father."
Zhu Qizhen nodded and said, "Third brother, how are you doing in Japan?"
The third brother was adopted by King Hui first, and later changed his title to King Ying. His fief was in Nagasaki, Japan.
King Ying said: "I have been building Nagasaki City over the years. With the trade between Japan and the court, I raised 300,000 taels to build a big city in Nagasaki, which is comparable to a domestic city. To the west of Kyushu Island, all the major Japanese names have surrendered one after another. I intend to go north to Japan. Can the father give me some support?"
It can be said that among Zhu Qizhen’s sons, the one who lived the most comfortable life was neither others nor King Ying.
First of all, although he was adopted by King Hui, in terms of patriarchal law, he was no longer Zhu Qizhen's son, but Zhu Qizhen's nephew. But who dared to be serious with the emperor? In this way, he inherited King Hui's team.
King Hui has been in North Korea for many years, but he still has a little team. This saves him from starting from scratch.
Secondly, he was granted the position of Nagasaki.
Backed by the Ming Dynasty, Japan was weakened so badly that it had no decent enemies at all. In addition, Nagasaki, as the important place for trade between Japan and the Ming Dynasty, King Ying obtained hundreds of thousands of taels of silver from Nagasaki every year through taxes and industries.
Only then did King Ying have a region to rebuild Nagasaki Castle, train his army, and even want to go north to Japan and destroy Japan.
Of course, this also leads to the internal chaos of Japan.
