Yongle Emperor's grandson: Zhu Yuanzhang with cheats, Zhu Di went crazy

Chapter 144 New Changes after Promotion (Subscription Request)
"After the Battle of Tumubao, the Ming Dynasty's noble military system fell into decline, and the civil officials gradually took control of the military power."

"The cabinet system established by Zhu Di has evolved from an auxiliary system at the beginning to a powerful institution that controls the court, and it is very large."

"Later, the land was annexed seriously, and the military households' farming system set by the Ming Dynasty completely collapsed. The military households completely lost their fighting power, and the millions of soldiers became a joke."

"In the later period, generals can only train their servants to serve as elite troops for the main attack. However, the status of military generals is low after all, and any orders can only be obeyed by civil officials."

"Those who understand military tactics are better. Those who don't are completely blind in their command, and they will lose miserably even when they can obviously win the battle."

"Coupled with successive natural and man-made disasters, the people could no longer bear it and chose to rise up in rebellion."

"The most powerful of them, Li Zicheng, invaded the city of Peking. The last emperor, Chongzhen, hanged himself on a crooked tree in Coal Hill, ending the Ming dynasty's 200-year history."

"The border guard Wu Sangui opened the border and let us in, and then the Ming Dynasty was ours."

"Although there was resistance from the Southern Ming later, their civil officials continued to fight for power and had no intention of counterattacking. I destroyed Xiaoliuqiu some time ago, and the inheritance of the Ming Dynasty also came to an end."

Surrounded by Zhu Lao, Zhu Biao and Zhu Qizhen, Kangxi briefly explained the subsequent events.

When he talked about the Qing Dynasty replacing the Ming Dynasty, there was still a hint of arrogance on his bruised face. It was not until Zhu Yuanzhang raised his fist that he became a little more obedient.

But looking at his flickering eyes, it was obvious that he was not convinced.

"Tumubao, Tumubao..."

After listening to the story, Old Zhu murmured something and slowly turned his gaze to Zhu Qizhen next to him.

Zhu Qizhen was instantly terrified and turned to run, but was grabbed by Old Zhu, pinned to the ground and beaten violently.

"master."

After escaping, Kangxi showed a hint of flattery on his face and ran to Zhu Zhanjun to greet him.

Zhu Zhanjun nodded.

"Master, I'm willing to ask you a question. Who are these people?"

The space only told him the identities of Zhu Zhanjun, Zhu Yuanzhang and others. He knew from the conversation that they were people from the Ming Dynasty, but his specific identities were not clear.

Zhu Zhanjun pointed at Old Zhu and said, "This is the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang."

Then he pointed to the side, trying to stop the fight but not moving his body, Zhu Biao: "This is Prince Yiwen Zhu Biao."

He pointed at Zhu Qizhen, who was being attacked by Old Zhu, and said, "This is the one who was captured in Tumubao that you just mentioned, Zhu Qizhen."

Finally, he pointed to the helpless Empress Ma next to him and said, "This is my great grandmother, Empress Ma, the most virtuous empress of the Ming Dynasty."

Kangxi was dumbfounded.

My goodness, he said he was beaten just now, why was he beaten so hard, it seems like he ran into his mortal enemy.

"Then Master, you?"

Recalling how Zhu Zhanjun addressed Lao Zhu and others, Kangxi asked Zhu Zhanjun nervously.

Zhu Zhanjun smiled and introduced himself: "The second grandson of Emperor Yongle of the Ming Dynasty, the second son of Emperor Renzong Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Zhanjun!"

Upon hearing the above, Kangxi's face turned pale. This family all had the surname Zhu, and he was from the Qing Dynasty. Damn it, it's all over.

However, when he heard Zhu Zhanjun's name, a look of confusion flashed across his eyes.

He had also read the history of the Zhu family and some information about the Yongle period, and he probably knew all the royal family members of the Yongle dynasty.

According to his memory, Zhu Gaochi's second son was not named Zhu Zhanjun.

Seeing the other party's confused look, Zhu Zhanjun patted Kangxi on the shoulder and said, "Don't say some things carelessly. Just know what's going on in your mind."

Kangxi's body trembled, as if he understood something, and he nodded repeatedly, "Master, don't worry, I will definitely keep my mouth shut."

After seeing that Old Zhu still had some work to do for a while, Zhu Zhanjun took Kangxi into the house.

Zhu Zhanjun sat on the chair, and Kangxi stood opposite him like a servant.

Nodding with satisfaction, Zhu Zhanjun asked, "You should have contacted Western countries by now, right?"

Kangxi thought for a moment, then suddenly realized, "Master, are you talking about those foreign devils?"

Zhu Zhanjun ordered: "When you go back, find a way to find their guns and various industrial blueprints."

Kangxi looked puzzled and said, "Why do we need those? Our Ming Dynasty is rich and powerful, and these things are useless to our Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Zhanjun was speechless for a while. He was indeed a good servant. Now he kept talking about the Ming Dynasty and didn't care at all that he was the emperor of the Qing Dynasty.

"Don't ask so many questions. Just do it if I tell you to. Good or bad, I want the worst."

"twitter!"

Kangxi quickly knelt down on one knee.

Zhu Zhanjun did not let him stand up, and continued to explain: "Not only do we need to get the information, but we also need to let people in your court study it. The better, the better."

Kangxi nodded repeatedly.

"That's right." After giving instructions on a lot of things, Zhu Zhanjun asked Kangxi: "When you go back and promote me, my name will definitely not be suitable."

Kangxi nodded in agreement. After figuring out his identity and mission, he began to worry about how to promote his master when he returned.

To talk about identity directly, isn't that pure nonsense?

He was an emperor of the Qing Dynasty, but he promoted a non-existent prince of the Ming Dynasty, who lived two or three hundred years ago.

Oh my god, if this gets out, those Eight Banners descendants will make a big fuss. No matter how prestigious he is, he will be overthrown by them.

Zhu Zhanjun thought about it and said, "You can just spread the word that you met a god in your dream. This god can bless you with good weather and good harvests. His name is: Holy Emperor Mingfa Tiandi!"

Kangxi silently recited a few words, and with admiration on his face, he said: "This name is very majestic and worthy of the master's majesty."

Zhu Zhanjun waved his hand and said, "That's enough. I'll arrange things for you later if there's anything. Go back and get busy." Kangxi immediately knelt down and said, "My lord, I wish you all the best. I'll take my leave."

The light faded, and Kangxi disappeared into space. When he opened his eyes again, he was back on his dragon bed.

He sat up suddenly, without even putting on his shoes, and ran directly to the mirror. After seeing the pockmarked face, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Someone come, someone come..."

Several eunuchs and guards came in quickly.

Kangxi turned around and was about to give an order when he noticed a guard who looked familiar.

I took a closer look and found that the guy in front of me had eyes that were a bit like Lao Zhu's.

Kangxi instantly remembered the scene in which he was beaten up by Zhu Yuanzhang in the space.

He instantly became furious and swung his fist at the guard, who fell to the ground in a daze.

Kangxi did not stop. He rushed forward, sat on the guard's body, and started punching him.

The eunuchs next to him were so frightened that they knelt on the ground and kowtowed continuously, shouting at the emperor to calm down, their bodies trembling.

Kangxi ignored them until the anger in his heart was gone, then he stood up, panting.

"Issue an order to announce to the world that all craftsmen who are good at making firearms and smelting iron should report to the Ministry of Works."

"If there are such talents in foreign countries who are willing to come, as long as they are recognized by me, they can be rewarded with high positions, generous salaries and beautiful women."

The eunuch was a little surprised. The emperor was just going crazy, so how could he issue another imperial decree?

Although he was confused, he immediately obeyed the order and ran out to convey the will to the ministers on duty.

Waving his fist, Kangxi sat back on the bed, thinking about how to expand his manpower.

He didn't want to occupy any position in the space. After all, the moment he entered the space, his heart was loyal to Zhu Zhanjun and he would not do anything to harm the interests of the space.

He wanted to add more manpower so that when Lao Zhu beat him up next time, there would be someone to help him so that he wouldn't be pinned to the ground and beaten.

Thinking of himself being pinned to the ground unable to move and having to take a beating, Kangxi hammered the bed hard and decided to start promoting Zhu Zhanjun's Taoist name tomorrow and quickly increase the spring water in the lotus altar in his room.

Then he would flatter his master and try to expand his manpower to prepare for the next battle between the two sides.

In fact, Kangxi was worrying too much. Zhu Zhanjun pulled him over not because he was impressed by his abilities.

Instead, he wanted to use his bloodline inheritance and relationship system to pull in the people behind him, obtain more information and data, and strengthen the overall strength of the current Ming Dynasty.

There was no need for him to worry. Zhu Zhanjun planned to summon his people the next time the golden spring water reached the critical point.

After seeing Kangxi off, Zhu Zhanjun heard screams outside and did not go out immediately. Instead, he strolled around the house.

When the room is upgraded, there will definitely be new things. Otherwise, if it is just an upgrade of the appearance, it would be better not to upgrade it.

The warehouse has been moved to the west wing, and the main house has been completely vacated.

In the middle of the main hall is a lotus altar, and there is no overall change.

The east room is the farmhand's bedroom. Apart from the bed, there are some simple furnishings.

Kangxi would not live here for a short time, so Zhu Zhanjun planned to let Zhu Biao and Zhu Qizhen live here.

It's a bit unreasonable for two grown men to have no place to live and use the sky as a blanket and the ground as a bed every day.

After strolling around the east room, Zhu Zhanjun walked towards the closed room in the west.

Zhu Zhanjun pushed the door open, but before he could see what was inside clearly, a message came directly to him.

After checking the content of the message, Zhu Zhanjun showed a hint of surprise in his eyes.

The west room was empty except for a huge chandelier overhead.

Above the ground, there is a huge lotus painted.

The lotus is not solid, it's a bit like a sketch without filling.

"What does this lotus represent?"

Zhu Biao, who had no idea when he came in, looked curiously at the house covered with lotus flowers.

Zhu Zhanjun smiled and turned around to explain, "This is a teleportation array. It allows farmhands to transport some items in."

Zhu Biao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he quickly asked, "So, that guy named Kangxi can transmit things from his world here."

Zhu Zhanjun nodded: "Not only them, but also my great grandfather's room, but the world I am in will be teleported to."

Zhu Biao asked hurriedly: "Then can you take it away?"

Zhu Zhanjun smiled and nodded: "Of course, if they can be teleported in, I can naturally take them away."

But then a look of helplessness appeared on his face.

Zhu Biao saw Zhu Zhanjun's expression and asked, "Are there any more restrictions?"

Zhu Zhanjun said helplessly: "We can only deliver raw materials, that is, various materials that have not been processed."

"For example, raw materials such as iron ore, coal, and trees. In addition, each transmission requires the consumption of golden spring water as power."

Hearing about such restrictions, Zhu Biao sighed, but then smiled and comforted him: "It's good to have these, you don't have to worry too much, who knows, the next upgrade may be able to transmit manufactured things."

ps: Let me explain. Currently, the data has been reduced due to intelligent downscaling. The update of four chapters has caused the data to decrease instead of increase. The editor asked me to compress the content of four chapters into three chapters to improve the overall average data.

So even though there are three chapters, the word count has not decreased at all and is still around 10,000 to 11,000.
