The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Zhu Hongyu nodded slightly, indicating that Li Xuan could speak.

Hearing this, Li Xuan stepped out of the chapel, bowed to Zhu Hongyu, and then spoke.

"Report to Your Majesty, the slaves are now invading North Korea!"

"Three thousand miles of mountains and rivers in our country were broken, and the people suffered. It is really a terrible human tragedy!"

"My North Korean Li family is unable to protect the safety of tens of millions of North Korean people. If virtue does not match, can An Neng be on the throne of North Korea?"

"It's really frightening!"

Zhu Hongyu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he knew that the fish had taken the bait.

"Now, I feel that the situation in the world has changed!"

"I, the Lee family of Korea, want to resign from the position of the king of Korea, and present an album of mountains and rivers in Korea, which is attached to Daming!"

"For the sake of millions of people in North Korea, Your Majesty, please grant me North Korea's request!!"

"Your Majesty, please take pity on me and save my Korean people from danger!"

Li Xuan said with a sincere tone.

After finishing speaking, he knelt down on the ground and kowtowed to Zhu Hongyu in salute.

The attitude is extremely respectful!

His eyes were shining brightly, but he didn't know that he had already fallen into Daming's trap.

Although Zhu Hongyu was moved when he heard the words, he didn't agree immediately, but refused.

"North Korea is my first vassal in Ming Dynasty!"

"As the suzerain of Korea, how can Ming annex the vassal state?"

"I know the crisis that North Korea is facing now!"

"The Qing family doesn't have to be like this. Even if North Korea doesn't attach itself to Da Ming, when Daming frees up his hand, he will definitely not watch North Korea continue to be ravaged by the iron hoof of slavery."

"The Qing family should take back what they just said!"

Zhu Hongyu must have thought about North Korea.

But if he has a mind, he can't just agree to it when the North Korean side says it is attached.

The trick of three words and three concessions is still to be done!

Zhu Hongyu couldn't lose the golden signboard of the Celestial Kingdom, which his ancestors worked so hard for thousands of years.

Benefits are to be eaten, but face is also to be maintained!

Zhu Hongyu doesn't know how to imitate those white-skinned people in the West, all they see is profit, and they are completely shameless.

Li Yan heard the words, but thought that the Da Mingzi in front of him had been fooled.

There was a burst of joy in my heart, but I continued to speak.

"I, North Korea, have made up my mind. I am willing to merge into the Ming Dynasty and become a citizen of the Celestial Dynasty. I also ask for your majesty's permission!"

Zhu Hongyu still waved his hand and said.

"There is no need to mention this matter again, I will not agree!"

"Retreat!"

After finishing speaking, he got up from the dragon chair and turned to the apse.

Seeing this scene, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty did not understand what kind of medicine was sold in the emperor's gourd.

Zheng Chenggong stood in the court class, a little puzzled.

Is North Korea playing so big?

In order for Da Ming to send troops to aid North Korea, he actually planned to enclose Da Ming?

……

After going to court, Li Yun returned to Guozijian.

When he told Zhao Kang what happened in the hall today, Zhao Kang laughed out loud, patted the table in front of him and said.

"Haha, it's probably over!"

"As long as His Royal Highness strikes while the iron is hot, and submits a letter of state with the words attached, His Majesty will definitely send troops out of his heart!"

Li Xuan also nodded with a smile.

"Haha, sir, you are really talented!"

"Students admire!"

Hearing this, Zhao Kang withdrew the smile on his face, looked at Li Xuan rather complicatedly, and said.

"It's just that after this incident, His Royal Highness is going to suffer a lot!"

"At least, at least, I guess I have to pretend to be crazy!"

Hearing this, Li Yan also nodded solemnly in agreement.

This time, to put it bluntly, it was a trick to persuade Ming Dynasty to send troops to aid North Korea.

To put it bluntly, he is deceiving the king!

Since ancient times, it has never been heard that someone who committed the crime of deceiving the emperor can end up well.

Not to mention, what he, Li Xuan, is going to deceive now is the founding king who has almost unlimited power in his hands!

Even if Li Xuan is the heir of the Joseon Dynasty with a special status, but he has committed the crime of deceiving the emperor, he will definitely not feel better in the end...

If one is not handled well, Li Yun's identity as the son of the Joseon Dynasty will not even save his life.

The current Li Xuan has quite a spirit of sacrifice for the benefit of the whole of North Korea by sacrificing me alone.

He felt that he was so great now!
I have paid so much for North Korea, and even committed the crime of deceiving the king at the risk of beheading. The position of the future king of North Korea must be in my pocket.

Even, in the future, his historical status in North Korea will surpass that of King Yingzu!

……

Imperial study room!
Zhu Hongyu looked at the letter of credence attached to North Korea's request on his desk, and the smile on his face could no longer be concealed.

"Hahaha!"

"Hahahahaha!"

"It's done!"

"In this way, the matter of North Korea will be considered complete!"

The two oral requests in the court, plus the official letter of credence this time.

Such three words and three concessions are barely in place!

Next, as long as the news of Li Wei's death came, Daming would support Li Xuan to become the king of Joseon, and he would be able to eat the whole of North Korea in a legitimate way.

Thinking of this, Zhu Hongyu couldn't help laughing out loud.

After a while, Zhu Hongyu restrained his laughter and sat back on the seat.

Then he turned his head to look at Zhou Tianxu, and asked.

"How is the arrangement of the King of Korea?"

"Is there any mistake?"

Zhu Hongyu couldn't wait to attack North Korea.

Zhou Tianxu clasped his fists and said.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I have made all the arrangements for Jin Yiwei. I believe it will not take long for the good news to come back."

Zhu Hongyu nodded in satisfaction.

Obviously, he was very satisfied with Zhou Tianxu.

Zhou Tianxu may be lacking in ability, but he is loyal enough.

That's enough!
For superiors, loyalty is often more important than ability.

At this moment, a young eunuch hurried in from outside.

The little eunuch ran all the way to Zhu Hongyu, and after bowing and saluting, he spoke.

"Your Majesty, there is news from Shanghai that King Li Wei of North Korea drowned in drunkenness on the East Sea..."

The news was telegraphed into Nanjing!
When Li Wei was fished out of the sea, it was already completely cold on the spot.

After Li Wei's death, the fleet rushed towards Shanghai at full speed.

As soon as the fleet docked, they sent a message to Nanjing by telegram.

As soon as the eunuch on duty in the telegraph room received the news of Li Wei's death, he rushed all the way to the imperial study room to report to Zhu Hongyu.

Zhu Hongyu took a look at the telegram and nodded to Zhou Tianxu in satisfaction.

This time, Jin Yiwei did a great job!

When Li Wei drowned, there was no Ming people around him, only one eunuch, Li Wei's absolute confidant.

It can be said that Daming was completely removed from this matter!

Zhu Hongyu is quite satisfied with this!

After pondering for a while, Zhu Hongyu spoke.

"Pass down the order to temporarily block the news of the death of the North Korean king Li Wei!"

"And prepare the guidance of public opinion attached to North Korea, and prepare the ceremony and imperial decree for the canonization of the new North Korean king in advance!"

"Before the news of Li Wei's death comes to Beijing, try to get the North Korea issue cooked!"

"..."

……

Under Zhu Hongyu's signal, North Korea took the initiative to ask for the public opinion of Daming, and it began to brew in Nanjing.

In the streets and alleys, in Goulan restaurants, there are discussions everywhere!
"Have you heard? North Korea is going to include Ming Dynasty!"

A well-dressed middle-aged man with a two-character beard sat at a tea stand on the street, talking loudly to the people around him.

His identity is that he is a private school teacher, and he is considered noble.

"real or fake?"

An old man wearing a long gown with a ruddy complexion asked.

Obviously some do not believe it!

The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows and said in a very serious tone.

"Of course it is true, how can there be falsehood?"

"The fourth uncle of my neighbor's family is an official in the court. I heard from him that this time, the son of the Joseon Dynasty, Li Wei, took the initiative to propose to His Majesty in front of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty!"

The old man in long gown took a sip from his teacup, sucked his teeth, and said.

"I remember, North Korea is still at war right now?"

A young man with a slightly fat body and a pleasant appearance heard the words and couldn't help interjecting.

"That's not!"

"The Qing captives were beaten by my Ming Dynasty, and they couldn't stand in Liaodong. They went south and entered North Korea."

"Don't realize that Qinglu was no match for my Master Daming when he was in Liaodong, but when he faced the Koreans, his fighting power was quite fierce."

"I heard from my elder brother who was doing business in North Korea that almost the whole of North Korea has now fallen under the iron heel of the Qing captives!"

"That's miserable!"

Hearing this, the old man in long gown stroked his beard and said.

"If I'm not mistaken, the so-called internal attachment to North Korea this time should be a condition proposed by North Korea in order for me, Ming Dynasty, to send troops to rescue North Korea."

"Whether this thing can be done in the end is not certain!"

The middle-aged man who spoke at the beginning couldn't help asking after hearing the words.

"Why did the old man say this?"

"Could it be possible to go back on what the son of the Joseon Dynasty said in front of my grandson in the court?"

"Isn't that deceitful?"

The old man in the long gown was questioned, but he was not annoyed. He just stretched out the pipe and pot and tapped on the table lightly, knocking out the ashes in the pipe and pot.

Refill the tobacco, then take out a box of matches, light the pot, and take a deep breath.

The feeling of nicotine poisoning the lungs fascinated the old man deeply.

Coughing lightly, clearing his throat, the old man opened his mouth to explain the confusion of those who were looking at him eagerly.

"You are young, aren't you?"

"How can a North Korean son have the final say on matters attached to North Korea?"

"This kind of thing can only be done if the King of Korea personally expresses his opinion!"

After everyone was stunned, the old man changed his tone and said.

"But, it's not easy to say!"

"During the Japanese Invasion of Imjin, Japanese pirates invaded North Korea, and North Korea almost perished."

"At that time, in order to push my Ming Dynasty to send troops to aid North Korea, North Korea also proposed to attach Ming Dynasty."

"It's just that things didn't work out in the end. I, Da Ming, was once ordered by North Korea."

"Now that North Korea wants to use internal attachments to urge me, Ming Dynasty, to send troops to aid North Korea, things are hard to say!"

The old man did not say a subtext.

The Emperor Wanli Shenzong back then wanted to face, and he was embarrassed to eat North Korea.

But the current Da Ming Zi looks like he doesn't want to be a shameless master.

North Korea wants to exchange for Ming to send troops to aid North Korea. It is uncertain whether it will steal chickens and lose money in the end. It really involves itself.

Thousand-year-old foxes talk about chatting with each other, isn't that just to see who has a deeper morality?
"If North Korea can really attach itself to my Ming Dynasty, it will actually be a good thing for my Ming Dynasty!"

A businessman beside him couldn't help but speak.

"Now my Daming's industry and commerce is developing rapidly, which is the time when the market and labor force are needed!"

"If we can eat North Korea, it will indeed be a big help for me, Ming!"

After the businessman interjected, the topic gradually evolved into the benefits of North Korea's attachment to Ming, and the impact on Ming after North Korea's attachment to Ming.

……

In the second year of the restoration of Ming Dynasty, the ninth day of September!
Chongyang!

On this day, the eldest son of the Joseon Dynasty Li Xuan got up early.

With the submission of the letter of credence attached to North Korea's request, Daming has already begun to prepare for the dispatch of troops according to his vision.

After Li Xuan learned this, the smile on his face never disappeared.

The matter of Daming sending troops to aid North Korea was finally implemented, and he felt quite complacent.

Served by several maids, Li Xuan finished his breakfast, put on his clothes, and prepared to go out to visit Mr. Zhao.

It's just that he just walked to the door and was about to go out.

A group of Daming's servants came in front of him, the leader was Zhong Ming, the confidant and close minister of the Son of Heaven.

Often instead of the emperor holding the imperial decree to the bottom.

Seeing Zhong Ming coming to the door, Li Xuan's heart skipped a beat, and he had a bad premonition.

"My servant has seen His Royal Highness!"

Zhong Ming said with a smile.

Looks like a sly fox.

Li Xuan laughed dryly, subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said.

"Eunuch Zhong is very polite!"

"I don't know why Eunuch Zhong came to look for me?"

Zhong Ming twitched his face, and then spoke.

"This servant is here to tell His Royal Highness a sad news at His Majesty's order!"

Hearing this, Li Xuan's bad premonition became even worse.

He couldn't help frowning, and asked.

"Did something happen?"

The expression on Zhong Ming's face gradually changed to that of a secretary, and he spoke expressionlessly.

"The king of North Korea was drunk and drowned on the way to Daming, and now he is dead!"

"I also ask His Royal Highness to express my condolences!"

Zhong Ming came here, to put it bluntly, to report the funeral for Li Wei.

Then by the way, he handed over the imperial edict to enshrine the new Joseon king to Li Xuan.

The final step of preparations for the annexation of Daming to North Korea has been completed, and Li Xuan has been transformed from the son of Joseon to the real king of Joseon...

When Li Xuan heard the words, he still couldn't believe it at first.

But even after he realized it, Zhong Ming was the personal servant of Da Tianzi, so it was impossible to joke with him about such a thing.

The moment he realized this, Li Xuan felt his head explode, his eyes darkened, and he almost passed out.

"Father... Father King!"

"Father is really dead? What's going on?"

Li Xuan's words were full of unbelievable inquiries.

His legs and feet were weak, his throat was dry, and his head was dizzy. If he hadn't been supported by someone, he would have collapsed on the ground.
