Chapter 279 Ning Wang: I am the sixth child
Early the next morning, all the princes came to Fengtian Hall in groups.

Zhu Qizhen looked at the ten princes and asked, "Have you all considered it?"

Everyone had already unified their voices last night, so naturally they would not express their opinions easily, and all looked at King Ning.

Unexpectedly, King Ning seemed to have stopped breathing like an old monk in meditation.

King Xiang sighed secretly, stepped forward and said: "The ministers and others are still unclear about some things. I came here today because I want to ask the emperor face to face."

Zhu Qizhen said with a smile: "You are not outsiders, if you don't understand anything, just be honest."

Nowadays, the biggest scruples of the vassal kings is one thing. Is the so-called giving two cannons to soldiers really true?
The answer to this question is very important, directly related to the life and death of everyone.

Because the vassal kings are famous but not powerful, and they dare not covet them on weekdays. Now that they have the opportunity, who wouldn't want it?
Even if there is only one state and one county, it is better to be a local emperor than to be raised like a pig.

However, if this is a temptation, then those who show their intentions will definitely not end well.

King Xiang thought in his heart, if he asked clearly, the emperor would definitely not say it, he had to find a way, why not sell it badly first...

Thinking of this, he suddenly choked up and said: "Your Majesty, I have heard some rumors in Xiangyang. It seems that the imperial court intends to cut down the feudal clan and call the clan into Beijing to imprison them. When I heard the news, I was terrified and disturbed. The emperor's blood is connected, and they are all descendants of the great ancestor, Emperor Gao. There is no fault. Why is the court so fearful of the ministers? The clan is the emperor's relatives, scattered all over the country, guarding the various states for my Ming Dynasty, why is it subject to such sinister speculation? The minister is the fan It has been twenty years, although Xiangyang is remote and insignificant, but..."

While King Xiang was talking, he was already crying.

"But I regard Xiangyang as my hometown. Now that I'm old, I can't bear the hardships of traveling. If I leave Xiangyang, I will be very reluctant!"

"The emperor summoned us today, could it be that he is suspicious of the clan? I don't know who it is, who actually sow discord in front of the emperor. Since I became a feudal servant, I have always been cautious and strictly abide by the patriarchal law. Why is the emperor suspicious..."

Zhu Qizhen saw King Xiang crying, and the expression on his face gradually became distorted.

I want you to go out and work hard, it seems that I didn't say anything else, right?
What's more, I will give you money, food, soldiers, horses, weapons and equipment. With such strength, you can crush the neighboring countries around you, including the Byzantine Empire, the Ottoman Empire, and the European countries.

Even if you can't beat it, just come back, why don't you cry?
Seeing King Xiang crying, all the vassal kings lowered their heads and wiped away their tears. It seemed that the imperial court was really planning to cut down the vassals and imprison them.

Zhu Qizhen waved his hands helplessly, and said, "Where did you hear these messages? When will the imperial court cut down the feudal clan?"

King Xiang's expression was shocked, and he asked: "The emperor summoned his ministers to come to the capital, no, no..."

Zhu Qizhen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he said sternly: "I have already made it very clear that the emperor Gao, the great ancestor, established the ancestral law in order to protect the clan. If you are an official in the court, you cannot join the army and serve the court."

"I started a new policy. What Ming Dynasty lacks now is talents. Wouldn't it be a waste of money to abandon so many outstanding royal children?"

"That's why I thought of this way!"

Zhu Qizhen ordered Wynn to take out the map, spread it out, and put it on the imperial case.

"My Ming Dynasty has a vast territory. I claim to be a kingdom in the sky, but I don't know that the world is so big that it is far beyond our imagination. I want to follow the example of Emperor Zhou and divide the world. Whoever conquers the land will be considered as his kingdom. You only need to pay food and taxes to the court, and all government affairs are taken care of by yourself, and the court will not interfere."

These words were so true that the vassal kings began to lose their composure and began to discuss in a low voice.

King Xiang said again: "However, we don't know anything about the geography, climate, customs and customs of these extra-fan places. On the other hand, the Ming Dynasty came from all over the world, so if we rashly start a war against our neighbors, wouldn't it be... inappropriate?"

After saying these words, everyone nodded their heads one after another. Daming claims to be a state of etiquette, but now he wants to attack others. Is this reasonable?

"King Xiang's words are wrong!"

Suddenly, a person stood up, and everyone followed the reputation, it was Ning Wang Zhu Mianpei.

King Xiang asked back, "What is King Ning's opinion?"

King Ning came up, smiled, and said: "There is a saying, under the sky, is it the land of the king, and the land on the shore of the land, is it the king's ministers? All the land under the sky belongs to the emperor, and now he just sends troops to station it. What's wrong? Your Majesty, please give me [-] soldiers and horses, and I promise that within one year, I will take Ryukyu and bring it into the territory of Ming Dynasty!"

King Xiang was angry and angry, it wasn't you who said it last night, let everyone be united, don't rush to express your opinion, wait and see.

Well, it turns out that the meaning of asking everyone to wait is to let you choose first?
Hearing this, Zhu Qizhen frowned slightly. Ryukyu, also known as Okinawa in later generations, is an independent kingdom.

This little brother is very loyal to Daming, to what extent is he loyal?

Since the fifth year of Hongwu, the Ryukyu Kingdom has been using the reign name of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty is named Zhengshuo.

All their official documents, diplomatic treaties, official history, etc. are written in Chinese.

This habit continued until the Qing Dynasty, when it was forcibly annexed by a certain country in the east that lived a good life.

Such a loyal little brother, why do you want to beat someone up?
Zhu Qizhen pondered for a moment, and said: "King Ning's intentions are very good, but... I suggest, let's change the place."

King Ning said without hesitation: "I don't know much about the Central Plains, so it's better for the emperor to designate a place for me!"

Everyone stared at him silently, cursing in their hearts, you old six, why don't you die!

Zhu Qizhen pointed at the map, swiped his finger over it, and said: "Wuszang belongs to Daming in name, but for many years it has been in harmony with each other. I heard that there are many remnants of the former Yuan Dynasty who are obstructing it. I will give you [-] soldiers and horses to wipe out the former Yu Nie of the Yuan Dynasty, Uzang government offices at all levels will no longer issue seals and titles, but will be appointed by the imperial court, and the imperial examination will be implemented among the people, and you will be given three years, can you do it?"

King Ning nodded heavily: "It's a great honor for the emperor to trust you so much. It doesn't take three years. After one year, the minister will definitely give the emperor an explanation!"

"it is good!"

Zhu Qizhen turned to Huai En: "Shangshu of the Ministry of Summoning, Minister of the Ministry of Households, and Minister of the Ministry of Industry go to the palace!"

Wynn left in a hurry, and the other feudal lords stepped forward one after another seeing King Ning taking the lead.

"Your Majesty, I beg you!"

"Your Majesty, I only need [-] troops..."

"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze, Your Majesty, I heard that there is a place called Kunlun Island..."
