Ming Dynasty: Evolution from snake to national guardian beast

Chapter 165 Bai Chu’s treatment, Zhu Di’s doubts

"Stop talking about him. If you go in there, you don't know if he's dead or not, and there's no news about him!"

Thinking of Zhu Di's behavior at that time, several people sat together and did not dare to discuss it.

Even Qiu Fu, who had always supported Bai Chu, was completely disapproving of Bai Chu's offering of medicine. He was just waiting for the emperor to be angry and be the first to intercede on Bai Chu's behalf.

But what shocked everyone was that Zhu Di was stunned for a moment, and then Long Yan was so happy that he ran directly from the top to Bai Chu, took the elixir bottle with both hands excitedly, and then said excitedly:

"Thank you Mr. Bai."

"I will make good use of it."

Zhu Di held the elixir in his hand and returned to his position happily.

Everyone was shocked by Zhu Di's performance, but Bai Chu's next operation made all the civil and military officials even more numb!

Under everyone's surprised gazes, Bai Chu took out two more talismans from his arms.

Zhu Di explained to the superior:

"Your Majesty, of these two talismans, one is a refreshing talisman, which can relieve fatigue and make people feel refreshed."

"The other one is a disease-repelling charm, which can simply treat colds, headaches and other illnesses."

These were all redeemed by Bai Chu from the system.

Zhu Di's eyes were bright and excited, and he couldn't wait to look at Pang Mai and said:

"Hurry up and bring the things up!"

Zhu Di took the two talismans from the attendant's hands, touched them carefully, and then carefully put them into his sleeves.

Then he said to Bai Chu in a gentle tone:

"Mr. is still thinking of me. Thank you very much, sir.

Bai Chu's turns of operation and shield made all the civil and military officials dumbfounded.

Not to mention Bai Chu's behavior, the emperor actually accepted this situation?

A bold official from "653" stepped forward and spoke: -

"Your Majesty, it is a fact that Bai Chu has made great achievements in battle. I will not say anything."

"But Your Majesty, what kind of elixir is this, and it's made of talisman seals? Your Majesty, this is clearly a deep superstition and lies to deceive the public."

“Your Majesty, you can’t be trusted, why don’t you use it!”

The only person who could be so bold as to speak to the emperor was Jian Yi, the Minister of Civil Affairs.

As a veteran of a country, Jian Yi would still tell Zhu Di what was in his heart even if he died.

After Bai Chu heard this, there was no reaction on his face. He felt in his heart that there was nothing wrong with what Jian Yi said.

After all, this was ancient times, even though I had become a snake, it took me a long time to accept this fact.

And they, mortals, would need more time if they accepted it.

Zhu Di could accept it because he had seen the extraordinary Bai Chu's true form.

He can accept it, but others can't. This is really normal.

Therefore, no matter who spoke to criticize him, Bai Chu's expression remained unchanged and he was calmer and more composed than anyone else. He ate food and drank wine from time to time, very cool!

Perhaps in this world, only Zhu Di knows Bai Chu's identity now, and only he can understand the extraordinary thing in Bai Chu's hands.

In the hall, Gengyi was still feeling sad and crying, hoping that Yi Di would be awakened by what he said.

Zhu Di became more and more impatient as he listened. He couldn't get angry at this old minister, so he could only say helplessly:

"Jian Aiqing, I know all what you said, but Mr. Bai is different from those people. The things he gave me are all

is useful. "

"You people don't know, but I understand very well

This sentence directly drew a dividing line between all officials and Bai Chu.

Zhu Di's meaning is very obvious. Bai Chu and I are the ones who understand best. You can just leave it alone!

You don’t understand Bai Chu, how can I still understand you?

This man is a real dragon, more real than me, so there is no need for you to worry blindly!

Seeing that the other party seemed to want to continue persuading, Zhu Di suddenly felt a little irritated in his heart. He waved his hand and said coldly: "Ai Qing, please stop talking. I'm not stupid. I know very well. Please step back first." !”

The officials did not expect that the emperor actually believed in Bai Chu so much. Even in these superstitious things, Hou Zheng actually believed in them so much!

For a moment, everyone felt a line of defense in their hearts:

Dialogue with Bai Chu's defensiveness.

Zhu Di, who was at the head, was worried that Bai Chu would be affected by these words of right and wrong, and was about to say a few words of comfort. When he turned around, he found that the other party was fine and was drinking with a glass of wine.

Zhu Di suddenly laughed angrily. Is this the difference between humans and aliens?

The banquet broke up soon after, and all the officials left.

Zhu Di left Bai Chu behind, and then the two of them went to Jinshen Palace together. Although Wala was destroyed, Zhu Di still had questions in his heart and wanted to ask Bai Guang.

After arriving at Jinshen Hall, Zhu Di sat down on the ground casually. Bai Chu was slightly startled, and then sat cross-legged in front of Zhu Di.

"Mr. Bai, I have some questions and I would like to ask Mr. Bai to clarify them."

Bai Chu nodded lightly and said:

"Your Majesty, you may ask, but I will definitely tell you everything you know."

"When asked about Bai Shengsheng, it's like a prick on each other. The north is more

"I dare to ask Mr. Bai, now that Wala has been destroyed and there is no power in the north to threaten the Ming Dynasty, does the Lianlian still need to move the capital?" Zhu Di still had hesitation in his heart about moving the capital.

After all, the matter of moving the capital is of great importance.

Moving the capital is not just about simply moving the capital to Peking. It does not mean moving all civil and military officials and the imperial court to the north.

The capital often represents the political development direction of a dynasty and is the foundation of the country. Once one makes the wrong move, it is likely to be doomed.

Now that Oara and Tatars, and even the Jurchens, have all been wiped out by him, Zhu Di has some doubts. Is it necessary to move the capital again?

Bai Chu looked firm and said without hesitation:

"The Mobei Grassland has always been the biggest enemy of the Chinese nation. The tribes here are like weeds, killing one group and then growing another. Your Majesty must not be careless...

"Now it seems that only a few of the foreign races in the north have been wiped out by our Ming Dynasty, but as the saying goes, the weeds will grow again if they are burned by the spring breeze."

"The Han Dynasty fought a hundred-year war with the Xiongnu, but the Xiongnu were not completely wiped out."

"Even if the Xiongnu decline, other nomadic tribes will rise in the Mobei grassland, including Xianbei, Khitan, and Mongolia. Which one will not rise as a powerful tribe later?"

"So the emperor must not underestimate these nomads. As long as our Ming Dynasty does not completely occupy these Mobei grasslands, a new group of foreign races will rise in the Mobei grasslands."

Zhu Di understood what Bai Chu meant. If Wa Ci is eliminated now, there may only be a few decades of peace. Maybe in the near future, other grassland tyrants will rise.

Nodding secretly, Zhu Di pondered for a moment and continued to ask:

"In this case, what will happen to Yingtian after I move the capital?"

"The tiger in Yingtian City is sitting on the dragon's plate, and it has the aura of a king. If it suddenly gives up, or if someone is interested in occupying it, I am afraid that Tianming District will return to Houren Field and be destroyed."

There will be two disasters. "

Bai Chu already had the answer in his heart and answered directly:

"The terrain of Yingtian is steep, with the Yangtze River and natural dangers, and it occupies the southeast. It occupies the southeast's financial and taxation, so naturally it cannot be given up easily."

"After the capital is moved, can Nanjing be the companion capital?"

"Beiping, as the capital city, is close to the important towns on the nine sides, and the north is where the powerful troops are sent. If the emperor is personally in charge, he can have the power of the northern troops."

"Yingtian will be the companion capital, and six ministries can be retained to handle the government affairs of the southern region, and a heavy garrison will be left, and a person who is absolutely trustworthy will be sent to guard it. In this way, the southern finance and taxation zone will be owned by Tianming."

"If both the military and finances are firmly controlled by the emperor, the Ming Dynasty can rest easy."

Zhu Di's doubts were cleared, and he immediately decided to show off his cards to all officials the next day and announce the relocation of the capital.

What he didn't expect was that the capital move the next day would go through many twists and turns because of one person.
