I Am the Grandson of the Second Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Earning 100 Million Taels at the Beginn

Chapter 8 The first step towards the throne.

"I respectfully invite Sheng An!"

"I'm safe."

With Zhu Di's arrival, the specially-convened Grand Court Meeting officially began.

The Manchu Dynasty was civil and military, with civil left and military right.

Under the leadership of Prince Zhu Pangpang, he paid a respectful visit.

"Little brat, come here!"

As soon as everyone returned to their respective stations, Zhu Di called Zhu Zhangui and pointed to a staircase under the dragon chair.

Zhu Zhangui, who was squeezing his third uncle Zhu Gaosui, who planned to take a place beside him, cheerfully climbed up the stairs under the smiling face of his father Zhu Pangpang and his second uncle and third uncle, and stood where Zhu Di was pointing.

Seeing this scene, Manchu civil and military officials looked at Zhu Zhanji, the eldest grandson of the emperor, who was on the bottom step, and fell into deep thought.

Zhu Zhanji didn't seem to care about his second brother standing on a ladder higher than himself. He still kept a smile on his face, but no one knew what he was thinking.

"Little brat, I heard you were beaten last night."

Zhu Zhangui just climbed up.

Zhu Di looked at Zhu Zhangui gloatingly.

Zhu Zhangui, who was originally in a good mood, immediately darkened when he was mentioned by the old man.

Sure enough, the palace has no secrets. I was beaten the day before, and I knew it the next day.

"Hahaha…"

Zhu Di laughed, and pointed at Zhu Zhangui.

"If you didn't send me so much money, I would beat you up too. It's really heartbreaking. I knew that I ran away from home at a young age and deserved to be beaten. I think your mother is still playing lightly. Now You can still walk, but if I let someone beat you, you will have to lie on the bed for a month."

"Hahaha……"

Zhu Zhangui: "..."

Zhu Zhangui's deflated expression made the minister below him also laugh.

For a while, the solemn atmosphere of the Great Court Meeting also relaxed a lot.

"Humph!"

Zhu Zhangui, who was being laughed at, didn't say a word, snorted coldly, and sat down on the carpet.

"Hahaha……"

Zhu Zhangui's appearance of letting out his anger caused the laughter that had just stopped to ring out again.

"Okay, just be quiet."

Zhu Di reached out his hand to calm everyone down, and looked at Zheng He with a serious expression.

Zheng He, who was standing in the crowd, stepped forward to the front of the imperial court.

"Qizou Your Majesty, my minister Zheng He Yongle..."

With a serious expression, Zheng He reported the year he set off, which countries he visited, and what diplomacy he did.

Back and forth, a total of more than a quarter of an hour was told.

"The king of the country where the humble minister is going sent an envoy to Beijing with the treasure fleet to pay tribute, and I respectfully invite the emperor to summon him."

Say it.

Zheng He bowed deeply.

Zhu Di stretched out his hand in satisfaction, then looked down at Zhu Zhangui.

Zhu Zhangui pretended not to see the old man's gaze, and moved aside.

Zhu Di stared.

Why is this kid so angry.

Although I really want to go up and kick it, but considering the majesty of the emperor, I can only keep this matter in my heart, and when I find an opportunity later, I will educate this little brat.

Zhu Zhangui didn't go, so Zhu Di looked at Zhu Zhanji.

Zhu Zhanji, who had been waiting for a long time, nodded understandingly, and walked quickly to the gate of the palace.

Judging by his beating steps, it was obvious that he was in a very good mood.

Zhu Zhangui, who was sitting on the second step, just chuckled when he saw this scene.

He did it on purpose.

There is a saying that is good.

If you have been a good person all your life and suddenly do something wrong, many people will think that your goodness is just a faux pas.

And when a person who has been doing bad things all his life suddenly does a good thing unintentionally, people will think that this bad person is actually not that bad, and there may be some difficulties.

The same goes for grandchildren.

If you are an obedient and well-behaved grandson since childhood, if you have a conflict with your elders, the elders will think that you are a bad child.

The grandson who has been mischievous and difficult to discipline since childhood, occasionally obedient, will make the elders happy and feel that the child has grown up.

Zhu Di has no shortage of obedient grandsons, and Zhu Zhanji is the most among them.

If Zhu Zhangui also looked obedient and well-behaved, then the two would be a bit heavy.

More importantly, as an emperor, you must have your own ideas, and it is not necessarily a good thing to be too gullible or have a weak temper.

Zhu Qiyu is the best representative.

Who would have thought that this obedient and kind-hearted little fellow would actually carry the banner of Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Di is the emperor on horseback. From the fact that he hates Zhu Pangpang and likes the belligerent Zhu Gaoxu, it can be seen that he likes the kind of children who jump out.

Of course, there must be a limit to this. If you overplay it, it will be over.

Therefore, the details need to be carefully controlled by Zhu Zhangui.

"The emperor of Ming Dynasty has a decree to announce that the envoys of various countries will meet with them in turn."

"play music!"

Following Zhu Zhanji's biography, accompanied by court rituals and music, the first batch of envoys strode in.

Walked to the front of the hall, knelt down respectfully, and bowed to Zhu Di.

"The Great Ming Emperor Sheng Gong'an!"

Zhu Di smiled and nodded.

"I'm safe."

After paying homage to Zhu Di's envoys, he got up and looked at him in fear, and sat Zhu Zhangui on the second step.

Zhu Zhangui hummed softly.

Everyone in the diplomatic mission trembled, and quickly bowed respectfully and 90 degrees to say hello.

Seeing this scene, the civil and military officials of Manchu Dynasty looked at Zhu Zhangui with complicated eyes.

Zhu Di stroked his beard habitually, showing a proud smile.

He, Zhu Di, ruled the world, and the enemy would be terrified even when his name was mentioned.

Although the second child is brave, he lacks intelligence and has not gained much fame on the battlefield.

As for the boss and the third child, let's not mention this.

Zhu Di was originally worried that after his death, the descendants would not be able to deter the surrounding foreign nations.

Now it seems that this worry is unnecessary.

He had listened to Zheng He's report.

Zhu Zhangui, the second grandson, has a good and kind attitude towards those respectful small countries.

And for that kind of proud and arrogant vassal state that doesn't take the Ming Dynasty seriously, it's a river of blood.

When passing through Adan country, the Hu family sent people to pretend to be robbers and rob the Daming fleet.

The result was unsuccessful, but Zhu Zhangui, who was only 12 years old, was killed to the capital with 4000 soldiers.

In the end, if Zheng He hadn't stopped him, the country of Adan, which was already in civil strife, would probably be destroyed.

Envoys entered in batches, bowed and bowed to Zhu Di, and Zhu Di responded with a nod and a smile one by one.

After the last visit, it was already noon.

Zhu Di made some speeches to appease the countries that were robbed by pirates.

And expressed sympathy for their experience, and promised to send someone to help them expel the pirates.

Regarding Zhu Di's guarantee, the envoys were all moved and wept bitterly, but they didn't take it to heart at all.

Who are the pirates, they are all clear.

The biggest pirate leader was sitting on the second step of the dragon chair, looking at them through gritted teeth.

Will Zhu Di encircle and suppress pirates?
Just listen to this.

Seriously, that's a fool.

Finally, Zhu Di announced.

In order to welcome the envoys from various countries, a garden party was held in the evening three days later.

At the end of the court meeting, Zhu Zhangui ran away regardless of the old man's yelling.

The house hasn't moved yet.

A large pile of silver is still in the camp.

365 beautiful maids are waiting.

It is also necessary to select locations to open shops in various places.

3000 guards still need to be recruited.

Zhu Zhangui doesn't have so much free time to play with the old man.
