Reborn Ming Dynasty as Emperor

Chapter 518 The Emperor Wants to Have a Banquet
Liu Rushi was originally a smart and dexterous person, so he naturally understood the meaning of Wang Chengen's words. For a moment, his ears turned red, his almond eyes widened, and he said angrily:

"What's the matter, Prince, who do you think His Majesty is? Besides, I'm not the kind of casual person you imagined. You are an old man who has served His Majesty for more than ten years, and you still guess Your Majesty like this!"

Although Liu Rushi said so, he still snatched the small medicine box from Wang Chengen's hand, and hurriedly ran into Ziwei Palace with a stack of notes like a thief.

Not long after, Zhu Youxiao also came back from his afternoon nap, still alive and well, as soon as he sat on the throne, he asked Liu Rushi, "Where's the urgent delivery today?"

"Hey," Liu Rushi raised his head and raised his chin slightly as he spoke, and told Zhu Youxiao where the urgent delivery was placed today through his eyes. Seeing this, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but smile, as if nothing had happened. It seemed that Liu Rushi didn't see it, so he took a fold of the memorial and read it naturally: "This Qin Botong's calligraphy is getting better and better now, it seems that the few months of studying in the Imperial University are not in vain, it is hard work. Mr. Wen Zhenmeng."

At this time, Liu Rushi had already brought a cup of fragrant tea. Zhu Youxiao was only concerned with reviewing the memorandum, without looking back at Liu Rushi. He poured it into his mouth like a cow drinking water, but at this moment he noticed that Liu Rushi kept staring at him after he drank the tea.

Zhu Youxiao couldn't help turning his head suddenly, staring at Liu Rushi: "You won't add anything to my tea, will you?"

"No, no, really not!" Liu Rushi quickly waved her hands, denying it categorically, but seeing that Zhu Youxiao was still staring at her, and she was not used to lying, she quickly lowered her head and buzzed like a bee: "It was given to me by that old fellow Wang Chengen, who said he could raise dragon bodies."

Zhu Youxiao smiled, then turned his head to continue reviewing the memorial, and glanced at the inkstone beside him. Liu Rushi understood, rolled up his sleeves, took off the ink stick and rubbed the ink in the inkstone pool.

In many cases, this kind of urgent delivery of eight hundred miles (this kind of urgent delivery from the ocean may not be eight hundred miles) has to be approved by his majesty the emperor himself, and even Wang Chengen, the chief minister and inner court prime minister, has no choice. right to participate.

"These old eunuchs like to come up with some miscellaneous panacea, and this Wang Chengen is the most abominable. Knowing that I trust Li Shizhen the most, did he tell you again that it is the miracle medicine left by Li Shizhen, the genius doctor of the Jiajing period?" ah?"

While Zhu Youxiao took the ink pen from Liu Rushi and prepared to review it, he chatted with Liu Rushi, and Liu Rushi nodded hurriedly: "Well, yes, that's what he said."

Zhu Youxiao just nodded, he knew what kind of medicine Wang Chengen gave Liu Rushi, so he didn't say anything more, and at this time his thoughts had shifted to the important things in the memorial, Liu Rushi also shrugged it off with interest. Five steps away, stand respectfully.

What Qin Botong said was naturally after the combined Western Fleet was defeated by the Ming Fleet. He said that the Western countries had quickly retreated to the west of Manga and concentrated in several important strongholds in places such as Mughal and Ceylon. The fleet has entered Malawi.

Manlajia is today's Strait of Malacca. Zhu Youxiao naturally knew the important location of this place. This is an important gateway to the Pacific Ocean or the Indian Ocean. If he wants to go to Europe and Rome in the future, this is undoubtedly the place he must pass through.

Therefore, Zhu Youxiao immediately gave instructions in the memorandum, and immediately let Tian Fei, the most powerful First Fleet Vice Admiral of the Ocean Fleet, lead his troops to Manlajia, and immediately established the Manlajia Prefecture, with Tian Fei concurrently serving as the prefect of Manlajia. Immediately carry out military management of the local area, and prepare for the future when the Ming Fleet goes west to Manga and competes for more maritime interests.

In addition, there is also a secret report from Xu Xianchun, the commander of Jinyiwei. What he said is that there have been internal conflicts in the Luocha Kingdom recently. Because of the intervention of the Ming forces, Eastern Ukraine began to dissatisfy that the Romanov Dynasty could not provide They Ukrainians are very well protected, therefore, Eastern Ukraine wants to break away from the Romanov Dynasty, and wants to be merged with Ming Dynasty, and wants to be ruled by Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Youxiao is very satisfied with this. This is also the first European country that is willing to submit to the rule of Ming Dynasty. This also shows that the strength of Ming Dynasty has indeed been recognized by most countries in this world. Otherwise, Eastern Ukraine would not want to separate from Romania. The Romanov dynasty of Shaguo should be subordinated to the rule of the Ming Dynasty.

"Tell Xu Xianchun that as long as their leaders promise to use Chinese as their official language and Chinese characters in the future, and wear Han Chinese uniforms on official occasions, I, Ming Dynasty, can agree to their surrender, and grant their leaders the title of Prince, and give them military and economic help from above”, Zhu Youxiao is not interested in a country like Eastern Ukraine, but as the first country and nation willing to submit to Ming Dynasty, he will naturally not refuse, and he doesn’t care about including Eastern Ukraine into his Ming Dynasty’s center Centralized administrative system, but it can transform the mainstream culture of Eastern Ukraine into Han culture. This is also the first attempt to unify the world of culture. Perhaps more Chinese-speaking countries will appear in this world in the future.

After dealing with today's urgent delivery report, Zhu Youxiao didn't stay in front of the case anymore, and seeing the Western wine brought in by Nanyang Governor Du Yingxi yesterday, he couldn't help but have the idea of ​​having a Ming Dynasty version of the beach party. So he ordered Liu Rushi to order the young supervisor of the imperial dining room to get more fresh fish so that he could directly grill the fish on the beach in the Royal Garden.

In order to show the joy of the monarch and the people, Zhu Youxiao also asked Wang Chengen, the chief inspector of ceremonies, Li Mingrui, a scholar of the Zhongji Temple, Du Yingxi, the governor of Nanyang, the left servant of the Ministry of Industry, Gu Sanmazi, the commander-in-chief of the South China Sea Fleet, and the commander-in-chief of the Fifth Army. Guan Liu Bin and other civil and military ministers also summoned to the beach of the Royal Garden to attend the banquet.

In Java Island, far away from the capital, there is no censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Six Divisions to watch over, and these important civil and military officials in Java Island are regarded as practical officers, and they do not have the duty to advise His Majesty to behave properly, so they are happy to come To attend His Majesty's Royal Banquet.

Liu Rushi was quite happy about this, and even laughed at Zhu Youxiao as the empress master of Chen, and came to have fun with a monarch and his ministers. Fortunately, Liu Rushi said so, so Zhu Youxiao was not angry, and smiled and said that even if he was Empress Chen didn't have Zhang Lihua to play Yushu backyard flower for herself.

At about three o'clock in the unitary hour, Li Mingrui and Wang Chengen brought a group of civil and military personnel into the Royal Garden under the special order of Zhu Youxiao. At Zhu Youxiao's request, they all just wore ordinary clothes to meet the emperor Zhu Youxiao. He was also so happy that he directly said that there is no need to pay attention to the etiquette of monarchs and ministers at this moment, and joy should be the most important thing.

Except for Du Yingxi, the governor of Nanyang, who was a little ignorant of current affairs, no one said anything, and Zhu Youxiao also ignored Du Yingxi's advice. If you can't be more casual outside the mainland, then This emperor is really too boring.
