I, Zhu Houzhao, join the US imperialist chat group

Chapter 39 Celebrities gathered in Jinling! Zhu Houzhao meets the Portuguese!
Huai'an.

It is two hundred miles away from Jinling.

Li Dongyang finally couldn't hold it any longer.

At fifty-nine years old, almost sixty years old, he was finally tired.

"Help me up, I can still walk!"

"Cough cough..."

"Ouch……"

Stubborn, he tried to struggle on the hospital bed, but as soon as he moved twice, all the bones in his body began to hurt, and he immediately fell back on the hospital bed, feeling weak and coughing.

"Sir, just have a good rest. We are very close to Yingtian anyway. You really think you are a young man..."

"The doctor said, Sir, you have been tired from traveling, you have suffered from the wind and cold, and you don't have enough rest. You can just lie down for two days and you will be fine."

"Bo'an, why are you still standing there in a daze? Feeding the adults medicine!"

Wang Hua, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, held him down directly, then turned to glare at Wang Shouren who was watching the fun.

Wang Shouren, who was in a daze, came to his senses, quickly brought up the medicine, and handed it directly to Wang Hua.

"Dad, medicine!"

Wang Hua had blue veins popping up on his forehead. He couldn't see anything, so he didn't know how to feed Li Dongyang the medicine himself?
"Dehui, I'm old. I'm really old. I used to scold them for not being qualified to travel south in good clothes. Who would have thought that I would end up... traveling a hundred miles and a half with a team of 120 people. Now, only There are five or six of us left.”

Li Dongyang no longer struggled, but no longer struggled with his body. He looked weakly at the people in the room, including Wang Shouren.

There is no doubt that they all lost, losing to Xuanzong and losing to Zhu Houzhao.

"Mr. Ge, it's already very good. After all, we are not young people like Bo'an... To be honest, if we continue to move forward, I may not be able to support it anymore."

Wang Hua and Li Dongyang said nice things and glanced at everyone.

When they got here, there were only six people left in their team representing the cabinet.

After training all the way, they undoubtedly withstood Li Dongyang's test and followed him to the end.

Li Dongyang is the oldest. He, a minister from the Ministry of Revenue, and a minister from the Ministry of War are all in their fifties.

The remaining ones are Wang Shouren, the thirty-five-year-old head of the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War, and another young man from the Ministry of Household Affairs.

Among a group of old people, Wang Shouren is naturally the young man.

The two young men work part-time as their bodyguards. They are in good health and are now as good as normal.

"Yes, Mr. Ge, you have already set an example for all officials. Besides, you have arrived in Huai'an. In fact... it is no different from arriving in Yingtian. I just went outside for a while. In fact, we already know that His Majesty is not here. Less measures."

Wang Shouren did not listen to the greetings. Instead, a Ming Dynasty treasure note appeared in his hand. It was not from the Hongwu year, but from the Zhengtong year.

When he went out to inquire about information, a vendor secretly sold it to him, saying that he could double the price if he got it from Jinling.

He didn't understand why this outdated treasure banknote could be valuable again?

Isn't this a piece of paper?
Someone in Huai'an actually started reselling treasure notes.

He followed the hawker secretly, and found that the hawker was seeing a stranger, and that was what he was doing.

This behavior puzzled him.

What charm is hidden behind this little piece of paper?
At this time, Wang Shouren had not yet arrived at Longchang, Guizhou, where he was loyal, to attain enlightenment, but he would soon.

According to the original historical context, in the first year of Zhengde, he would impeach Liu Jin together with his father and others. Liu Jin could not deal with his father Wang Hua, so he used him as a junior official in the Ministry of War to scare the monkeys and was sent to the Dragon Field.

And his father, Wang Hua, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, would be transferred out of the capital under the protection of the cabinet and serve as the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites in Jinling, rising up and down secretly.

However, now the butterfly wings are flapping, and the impact is huge.

"Tokuhui!"

"I'm going to rest, but you're all right. I'll leave it to you for the rest of the journey!"

"In twenty days, our cabinet must go to Jinling!"

"You happen to be from the Ministry of Rites. First, on behalf of the Ministry of Rites... I would like to ask Your Majesty, how do you want to do this worship?"

"Your Majesty, if you do this, you are at odds with Li... At least you have to go through the cabinet... Let your Majesty stop it for now..."

While Wang Shouren was in a daze, Wang Hua got a new task from Li Dongyang. "Mr. Pavilion, I'm an official who speaks softly. Your Majesty, can you... listen to us?"

Wang Hua felt the difficulty of the task. Zhu Houzhao would not listen to what you said, but he would listen to him.

"This is an attitude that our cabinet must express! Whether your Majesty will listen or not is up to you. We represent the cabinet..."

Needless to say, after knowing Zhu Houzhao's series of measures, Li Dongyang had already realized that Zhu Houzhao was trying to seize power from the cabinet.

If the power vacuum of the cabinet lasts longer, the world will become more distrustful of the cabinet. They must announce the existence of the cabinet as soon as possible. Everything Zhu Houzhao does must go through the cabinet.

This is an invisible power struggle.

"Okay! Mr. Ge, I will obey your orders."

Wang Hua felt the weight of the task.

"Let's go! Go to Jinling!"

Two people were left behind, Wang Hua, another minister of household affairs, and Wang Shouren. They once again formed a cabinet team and continued to march to Jinling.

As they got closer to Jinling, Wang Shouren and Wang Hua discovered more strange places. Along the way, there were many more foreign faces, and there were also some vassal kings' teams, all of which were gathering towards Jinling.

……

"Your Majesty, King Ning, King Anhua, and a lot of vassal kings are all asking to see you now."

In the Jinling Palace, Zhu Houzhao had just dismissed the people from the Ministry of Rites, and Liu Jin came over again.

Zhu Houzhao rubbed his sore temples and waved his hand directly: "No, let's wait until all the vassal kings from all over the country have arrived. I will see them together again."

Zhu Houzhao had a headache for these senior vassal kings. Besides, how long would it take to meet them one by one?

Therefore, Zhu Houzhao always suppressed their requests for meeting.

He only met King Xing Zhu Youqi and handed over most of the affairs to Zhu Youqi.

"Your Majesty... Prince Ning asked me to ask if he has collected millions of Taizu treasure notes and can he have priority to see Your Majesty?"

After touching the banknote inside her sleeve, Liu Jin hesitated for a moment before truthfully reporting Prince Ning's special message request.

"Huh? Prince Ning wants to collect Taizu's treasure banknotes for me?"

Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up, he became a little more interested, and finally someone bit the hook he threw out.

"Well, yes... Your Majesty, since your decree came out, many feudal kings... they are actually working hard to collect treasures and want to see you alone."

Liu Jin thought about it for a while, and then said what other feudal kings asked him.

"Yes! I treat everyone equally. If they all collect millions of treasure notes, I will give them a chance to see me alone!"

Zhu Houzhao knew the thoughts of the feudal kings, especially Prince Ning and others, and agreed to this method without any hesitation.

Liu Jin breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Majesty, the Portuguese Franciscans you want to see, Qian Ning and others have already been found. There are about ten of them and they are waiting outside. Will Your Majesty see them..."

These days, Zhu Houzhao met a lot of people, but the most people were the small countries of Fanbang and some French people, but unfortunately, none of them were what Zhu Houzhao wanted.

However, Zhu Houzhao did not disappoint. From the envoys of these foreign countries, especially the Western countries, Zhu Houzhao got news about the Portuguese, so he asked Qian Ning to lead people to find them.

Qian Ning lived up to expectations and finally found him.

"Well done to Qian Ning and the others!"

"I hope you won't disappoint me!"

"Bring them in immediately... No, I will go see them in person!"

As he spoke, Zhu Houzhao took the initiative to leave his seat, unabashedly excited about the Portuguese, because with the use of Portuguese in his mind, he seemed to have discovered... vocabulary about Caesar.

The information about Caesar that Louis XVI mentioned earlier.

In a blink of an eye, it was time to chat for the third time.

The creation of the trumpet has not yet begun, and Zhu Houzhao plans to impersonate the emperor of other dynasties.

Now that a group of Portuguese people have arrived, it seems possible that he could impersonate some kind of Caesar!
