The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Chapter 171 Arrangements for Goryeo in the future
"Master, please take care of this trip to the north. It's just that I'm a little confused, why the master will leave early tomorrow morning, why don't you wait a few more days?"

In the study, Zhu Ying looked at Yao Guangxiao who was sitting opposite and asked.

While reviewing the memorial just now, Yao Guangxiao came over to pay a visit suddenly, and proposed to leave for Korea early tomorrow morning.

In the original plan, Yao Guangxiao would join the Korean envoys in a few days, but now Yao Guangxiao suddenly proposed to go first.

Yao Guangxiao clasped his hands together and said, "Your Highness, the poor monk is getting old, so he walks slowly on the road. It's the same if we leave a few days earlier and meet up with the envoy again."

"The poor monk's trip to Koryo this time may take a long time, so he also summoned all his juniors to accompany him, so we can make some arrangements here."

Hearing this, Zhu Ying paused slightly.

Good guy, I just want you to leave the capital, so as not to cause any other moths, but you gather a group of people and want to go to Korea to do something?

With just a few words, Zhu Ying sensed the fiery emotion in Yao Guangxiao's heart.

It is not difficult to guess that it is probably the lurking list in Korea that I gave him, which made him full of fighting spirit.

The voice of speaking became sonorous and powerful.

After pondering for a while, Zhu Ying said: "Korea is also being invaded by Japanese pirates. Master, you can pay more attention when you go there. It is best to find out the current situation of the Japanese country."

"I want Master to understand that if everything goes well, in the spring of next year, Daming may organize an army to rescue the people of the Wa Kingdom who are living in dire straits. After all, the Wa Kingdom has belonged to China since ancient times."

"There is absolutely no reason to stand by and watch the war in Japan. Goryeo is closer to Japan, and there are some things that the master can decide on his own."

At present, Zhu Ying will not go to war with Goryeo for the time being, and Li Chenggui can only let him do it well first.

Regarding Li Chenggui, Zhu Ying will not let him step down in recent years.

In fact, if Zhu Ying wanted to pass an order, the whole Goryeo could be transferred to Daming day and night, but this was not the result Zhu Ying wanted.

It is true that the current Goryeo is like a plaything in the palm of Zhu Ying, but you, Zhu Ying, who is well versed in people's hearts, know that if Li Chenggui is directly killed, Goryeo will be more easily out of control.

The whole situation will become uncontrollable instead.

The root cause is that Zhu Ying is currently arranged among the latent forces in Goryeo, and there is no one who can really stand alone.

If Li Chenggui is gone, unless Zhu Ying personally sits in Koryo, he can overwhelm many subordinates.

But this is obviously impossible. Zhu Ying had never thought of the founding of Korea before, and it is even more impossible now.

People's hearts are the most difficult to control. To be honest, there are currently three major groups of forces under the command of Goryeo.

They are respectively lurking in the Goryeo royal palace, civil servants, and generals, in three aspects.

That's what balance is.

Now everyone's goal is still very consistent, lurking in Korea, showing interests for the Qunying Chamber of Commerce, and achieving the goal of ultimately controlling Korea.

But in fact, Zhu Ying understands better that if the latent time is too long, there will be more accidents.

This is destined to be an impossible goal.

At the beginning, Zhu Ying's idea was to continuously absorb resources from Korea to replenish herself.

Once the change of dynasty is completed, under such circumstances, it is inevitable that there will be a few heroes who will secretly control their power in Korea.

That's really nothing to fetch water from the bamboo basket.

It is in Zhu Ying's best interest to maintain the current situation in Korea. According to Zhu Ying's forecast, at least in the next three years, the latent forces in Korea can still be controlled.

If it's too long, then I don't know.

Three years is enough time for the current Zhu Ying to completely merge into Daming.

In Zhu Ying's mind, if he wants to quickly and easily control Goryeo, and attack Wa country after the spring of next year, Goryeo must participate.

Li Chenggui definitely doesn't want to fight the Japanese country, but I'm afraid it can't be up to him.

And when Goryeo cooperates with the Ming Dynasty to attack the Wa Kingdom, it will definitely cause a burden to the people in Goryeo, and even arouse internal social conflicts.

These are all within Zhu Ying's guess. Although it is a bit cruel, it is necessary to consume Goryeo's vitality.

Only in this way, when Daming annexes Goryeo and appears as a savior, can it occupy Goryeo most easily.

Letting Yao Guangxiao pass this time is also for the better implementation of the plan.

When Yao Guangxiao heard this, he immediately understood Zhu Ying's thoughts. When dealing with smart people, sometimes he would understand everything after just a few words.

"Please rest assured, Your Highness Changsun, this poor monk will not disappoint His Highness when you go to Korea."

Yao Guangxiao said solemnly.

He is very clear, and at the same time, he also understands that this trip to Koryo is a test for His Royal Highness Changsun.

From the positions occupied on many lists, it can be seen that the current Goryeo is completely in the bag for His Highness the eldest grandson.

If I still can't achieve the goals and ideas of His Royal Highness the eldest grandson after all my past, then I will have no face to participate in some major operations in the future.

At this time, Yao Guangxiao suddenly felt very lucky for his choice.

From the layout and planning, he can easily guess that His Royal Highness Changsun's ambition is by no means just guarding the territory of the Ming Dynasty as His Majesty thinks now.

That is the lofty ambition of devouring the world with tigers and keeping wolves in Xuxu.

Yao Guangxiao's ambition is not to govern the region, but to write a strong stroke in the history to achieve his wish.

Thinking of achieving this goal, what could be faster than expanding the territory.

What he has always regretted the most is how he couldn't be born decades earlier, so that he could show his talent and ambition during the war at the end of the Yuan Dynasty.

But now it seems that Yao Guangxiao feels very good about the contest between countries.

This stage is also enough for him to display.

"Okay, I will leave everything about Korea to the master." Zhu Ying said with a smile.

When Yao Guangxiao heard this, his calm face was a little excited.

Until this moment, Yao Guangxiao felt like he was dreaming.

You must know that it has only been a few days since he took refuge with His Highness the eldest grandson, and he entrusted such an important matter to himself, and the trust in it made Yao Guangxiao feel a little ashamed.

Before, he always wanted to take advantage of Zhu Ying, but now he also wanted to confine himself because of Zhu Ying's power.

I am also getting old, if I really want to be confined for ten or eight years, then everything will really come to nothing.

According to the current situation, it is really possible in ten or eight years. By then, I will almost be buried in the ground, and no amount of ambition will become empty talk.

Behaviors like Yao Guangxiao's, as far as the current Daming is concerned, are actually very shameless.

To put it in an exaggerated way, it is no different from defecting to the enemy and clinging to power.

Even Yao Guangxiao was prepared to be despised by Zhu Ying in the past few years.

What he didn't expect was that His Royal Highness Changsun actually handed over Gao Li to him to take care of it.

The power that Zhu Ying granted to Yao Guangxiao could almost completely represent him in the internal hierarchy of the Qunying Chamber of Commerce.

That is to say, from the moment Yao Guangxiao crossed the Yalu River and set foot on the territory of Goryeo, he was the most powerful of Zhu Ying's forces in Goryeo.

In a sense, Yao Guangxiao who walked in Koryo was not much different from the King of Koryo.

This is what brought tears to Yao Guangxiao's eyes and really moved him.

There is nothing more than this when a scholar dies for his confidant.

As far as Zhu Ying was concerned, he actually didn't think too much about it, because he was too familiar with Yao Guangxiao's thoughts.

On the other hand, it is impossible for Yao Guangxiao at such an age to control Goryeo and establish himself as king.

Even if it is Yao Guangxiao who stirs up wind and rain in Korea, it doesn't matter too much.

Moreover, Zhu Ying is very familiar with Yao Guangxiao's thinking. You must know that Yao Guangxiao in the original history, after becoming the prime minister in black, didn't want money, power or power.

Such a person has a firm heart, and nothing outside can affect him except to achieve his own goals.

If he was really greedy for power, then Yao Guangxiao would not be Yao Guangxiao.

"By the way, Your Highness, Cao Guogong Li Jinglong has come to visit His Highness today." Yao Guangxiao suddenly remembered this and said.

For Li Jinglong, Yao Guangxiao used to be Zhu Di's military adviser, so of course he is very familiar with him.

"Oh, why did he come to see me?" Zhu Ying asked with interest.

Li Jinglong, this is the most famous Ming Dynasty's first God of War in later generations, and he can be called a legendary figure.

But after experiencing with the old man, Zhu Ying felt that this person was not that simple.

The old man is shrewd. If Li Jinglong had no real material, how could he be appreciated by the old man.

Yao Guangxiao sold Li Jinglong completely without hesitation after hearing Zhu Ying's inquiry.

He began to report to Zhu Ying that when Li Jinglong was in Xifan, through the tea and horse trade, he helped Yan Wang Zhu Di get many war horses.

He even helped Zhu Di to smuggle tea and raise money secretly.

"From the looks of it, the relationship between fourth uncle and cousin is quite good, and they can help each other in these things." Zhu Ying said with a smile.

According to Yao Guangxiao, he fully understands how close the relationship between Li Jinglong and Zhu Di is.

This is because Jin Yiwei did not check the emperor's relatives, or he knew in his heart that even if the old man found out, he would not punish the two too much.

"Your Highness does not know that King Yan and Duke Cao grew up together, and they have a very deep relationship. They have been helping each other since King Yan became a vassal." Yao Guangxiao added.

Zhu Ying nodded and said with a smile: "I'll see my cousin tomorrow, let's see what he thinks about coming to see me at this time."

The Daming Palace, the rear hall of the Spring Harmony Palace.

"You all go back and do your homework, Yun Wen stays here and tells you something for my mother."

After wiping it with a handkerchief, Mrs. Lu ordered.

These words were addressed to Zhu Yunxi, Zhu Mingyue, including Zhu Yunxi and others.

Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Mingyue also live in Chunhe Palace now, living with Zhu Yunqi.

It's just that Zhu Yunqi is considered semi-independent at present, and under normal circumstances, he seldom eats with many younger siblings.

However, after chatting with Mrs. Lu last time, Zhu Yunqi became more and more dependent on his mother, and took the initiative to eat with his mother in the back hall.

Zhu Yunxie and others heard Lu's order and left directly after agreeing.

It's just that they didn't notice that the way Zhu Yunqi looked at Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Mingyue had become a little unusual.

Backing away for four weeks, Lu frowned and said to Zhu Yunqi: "How did my mother teach you, Yunxi and Mingyue are both your younger brothers and sisters, even if you have some thoughts in your heart, how can you express them on your face."

During the meal just now, Mrs. Lu noticed that Zhu Yunqi looked impatiently at the two little ones.

In fact, before this, everyone's relationship was pretty good.

Zhu Yunxuan's temperament, no matter what, in normal times, he is worthy of the title of elder brother, and he usually cares for Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Mingyue.

But after knowing that the real big brother, Zhu Xiongying, was still alive, things began to change.

"But mother, I really can't help it." Zhu Yunqi said a little aggrieved.

"Hmph, what do you mean you can't bear it? Yun Wen, what's wrong with you recently, have you been stunned? You have been learning from your father since you were a child, where is the demeanor of Confucianism?"

"No matter what happens in the future, Yunxi and Mingyue are both your own brothers and sisters. You have to treat them well as before, but I understand."

Lu's voice had already taken on a slightly reprimanding tone.

This made Zhu Yunqi feel a little wronged, and argued: "But mother, if I guessed correctly, they must have gone to see elder brother before they left the palace."

"I heard Yunxi tell me in a private voice that the two of them still have the badges given by the emperor's grandfather, and they can freely enter and leave the palace. This must be the emperor's grandfather who asked them to see the elder brother."

Hearing this, Mrs. Lu had a look of hatred in his eyes, and wanted to reprimand him again, but seeing the unwillingness in Zhu Yunqi's eyes, his heart softened.

After thinking about it slightly, he followed the instructions: "Wei Niang told you last time that when your eldest brother enters the palace, His Majesty will definitely give your eldest brother the position of grandson."

"For now, don't think too much about the position of grandson. The only chance is to wait quietly. At this time, what you need is forbearance."

"You can't target Yunxi and Mingyue. They are very sensitive. Such behavior will only put you on the opposite side of your elder brother."

"When your eldest brother enters the palace, let alone speak ill of you in front of His Majesty, he will personally educate you as an elder brother, and a woman like your mother will not be able to help you. You must know it in your heart."

The current Lu family is very clear that Zhu Xiongying's entry into the palace has become an unstoppable trend.

His son's chances are very slim at present, but if he wants to really lurk, the first thing to do is not to be hostile to Zhu Xiongying.

The hostile relationship will arouse His Majesty's resentment, and it will also make Zhu Xiongying take action against Yun Wen, and then everything will be even more difficult.

"But mother, I feel that I can't do it." Zhu Yunqi said aggrievedly.

Hearing this, Mrs. Lu said angrily: "You can't even do this, so what are you thinking about? Even if you really get that position, I don't think you can do well."

"That is, tomorrow morning, you should go to His Majesty's side and tell the truth clearly. You will take the initiative to tell about the canonization in September. Don't think too much about the canonization. Designation is impossible."

Zhu Yunwen heard the words, but did not answer directly, there was an obvious struggle in his eyes.

He also thought that even if the eldest brother entered the palace, it would be impossible for Grandpa Huang to immediately step down as his great-grandson.

There should be some way, and there is still some hope.

Seeing this, Mrs. Lu said directly: "You can bring it up yourself, and it will be better for His Majesty and your elder brother."

"If you wait until His Majesty brings it up, you will have to think about how to face it at that time. In the hearts of all the officials in the court, it will be completely embarrassing."
