Zhu Ying's power reached its peak with the shouts of millions of people.

All the civil and military officials had a complex look on their faces.

Strictly speaking, these officials have no major connection with Zhu Ying.

Most of them achieved their current status only under Zhu Yuanzhang's appointment.

This is especially true among military generals. It can be said that almost all of them have fought with Zhu Yuanzhang in the world. Even those who are younger and were born after the founding of the Ming Dynasty have also received military training and other things arranged by Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Ying is the most favored grandson. He seems to have great power and wealth, but in fact he has no people of his own.

Whether it is Xuan Jia Wei or many stewards of the Qunying Chamber of Commerce, including Uncle Zhang, they have not actually entered the core team of the imperial court.

Their power is attached to Zhu Ying.

Even if Liu Sheng has real power, he can only do so in Annan.

There are six ministers, many ministers, and the governor's office of the five armies. None of them are really Zhu Ying's true confidants.

Many ministers previously thought that this situation might be a restriction imposed by His Majesty on His Highness the Grand Sun.

But the shouts and cheers of millions of people today made everyone understand.

It's not that His Majesty has any restrictions on His Highness Taisun, but that His Highness Taisun doesn't need to specially cultivate any talents at all.

Momentum is something that is sometimes not worth mentioning.

But if quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes, then it is already a completely controllable force.

At this time, it was not just the civil and military ministers who were shocked.

The one with the most powerful impact should be Chen Muyue, who is sitting on the dragon chariot.

At this moment, her mind was completely shocked.

She had never heard of such a grand scene in her life.

Compared with Annan, it is completely different.

Originally, Chen Muyue still felt a little guilty about what she had done when she returned to Annan, but now it has completely disappeared.

Being able to fully join the Ming Dynasty is a truly good thing for Annan.

Zhu Ying, who was sitting, stood up at this moment, raised one hand, and waved his arms to the people on both sides of Zhengyang Avenue.

Now, all the people were even more excited.

The black skin fell to his knees and shouted loudly for His Majesty Taisun.

In such an environment, the dragon chariot went all the way outside Zhengyang Gate.

The crowd on the pier became even denser, but this was not a star chase, and there was no saying that any common people would rush into the dragon chariot rashly.

Those who are grateful in their hearts will kowtow continuously on the ground to express their excitement and gratitude.

At the pier, more than a dozen blessing ships were waiting, and a large number of naval officers also knelt on one knee to welcome Zhu Ying's arrival.

When the dragon chariot arrived at the pier, the navy commander who was going to Annan this time walked quickly, knelt down on one knee and clasped his fists, saying: "I Jin Kaishan, I pay my respects to His Highness the Grand Sun."

Jin Kaishan was among the first batch of Ming Dynasty naval commanders to follow him.

When he was still in the Chaohu Navy, Jin Kaishan was a small leader. After the Battle of Panyang Lake, Jin Kaishan was proudly promoted to the position of general because of his merits.

But after that, there was no other movement.

It seems that the Central Plains Dynasty focused on land warfare and despised water warfare.

Even though the current Daming Navy is extremely powerful, even Yu Tongyuan.

That is to say, Yue Xunhou, the younger brother of Yu Tonghai, who built the Chaohu Navy. Although he is now the commander of the Ming Dynasty Navy, it can actually be said to be no different from a sinecure.

Even the Ministry of War doesn't care much about the entire Daming Navy.

That is to say, Zhu Ying worked hard to lift the forbidden sea, conquered the Japanese country, opened up maritime trade, guarded the sea routes, vigorously promoted private capital to participate in maritime trade, and built more warships.

This allowed today's Ming Dynasty Navy to have some say among many generals.

Of course, it is impossible to ask the Yuexun Hou to dispatch Chen Muyue to Annan. Jin Kaishan is a direct subordinate of the Yuexun Hou, and he is alert. He is not yet fifty, so he should be in his prime.

It is most suitable to fulfill His Royal Highness Taisun's decree.

"Get up." Zhu Ying nodded.

Then he ordered: "You must already know some of the specific things when I go to Annan this time."

"But I want to remind you that outside the Ming Dynasty, especially at sea, you must show the majesty of our Ming Dynasty, especially when it comes to any issue related to the face of the Ming Dynasty, even if it is the slightest, you must not let it go."

"The countries in Nanyang each have their own thoughts. As a general, you should not get involved in their interests. Just remember that if you feel that they are contemptuous, you must teach them a lesson.

.”

"Except for some arrangements made by Concubine Yue, I can allow you to act expeditiously on other matters."

"Remember, behind you is the entire Ming Dynasty."

Jin Kaishan didn't read much, but his brain was relatively flexible, and he immediately understood the meaning of His Highness Taisun's words.

Immediately, he respectfully replied: "Finally, Jin Kaishan will obey the order of His Majesty Taisun!"

Zhu Ying looked at Jin Kaishan who was slightly excited and knew that he was a sensible person.

As for what Zhu Ying just said, he almost didn't say it clearly, asking Jin Kaishan to try his best to create some trouble in Nanyang.

It's obvious that he wants to bully others.

Thirty thousand naval troops are absolutely powerful not just at sea, but also on land.

There are also elite cavalry.

How could it be possible for so many soldiers to go there just to complete the escort mission? Wouldn't that be a huge waste?

Promoting the national prestige of the Celestial Empire and so on are only superficial.

Secretly, Zhu Ying has to achieve a lot of benefits.

Things like tariff barriers are not new to later generations, they have already appeared now.

Collecting taxes was not the exclusive power of the Ming Dynasty.

When Ming merchants conduct trade in other countries, they also need to pay taxes according to the local country's tax requirements.

It is obvious that taxes protect local chambers of commerce, even in the Ming Dynasty.

There are also some types of prohibited trade, not just strategic materials, but also some unique items. Many countries will also prohibit trade when they are scarce.

What Zhu Ying wants to do is to find ways to open the tariff barriers in these countries.

After Chen Muyue boarded the ship, this episode was finally over.

Jin Kaishan stood on the deck, watching the long-lasting crowd on the pier as His Royal Highness Taisun left in the dragon chariot, and he naturally felt a little sigh in his heart.

This is the first time Jin Kaishan has met His Highness Taisun, and this meeting is also what Jin Kaishan is looking forward to the most.

To a certain extent, His Highness Taisun undoubtedly fits Jin Kaishan's imagination very well.

Although the Ming Navy itself had some relationship with His Highness Taisun, the implementation of a series of policies made all the officers and soldiers of the Ming Navy recognize Zhu Ying very much.

Not to mention the improvement in the navy's treatment, this feeling of importance alone makes all the generals of the Ming Navy feel grateful.

"The general is really calm. When my subordinates saw His Highness Taisun, they were trembling all over. It was as if there was a strong force pressing down on me. I didn't dare to raise my head to look at His Highness Taisun's face."

"General, can you describe me to your subordinates? I really regret it. Why am I so useless?"

The confidant next to Jin Kaishan didn't speak to Jin Kaishan until the dock was out of sight.

When Jin Kaishan paid homage to His Highness Taisun, he followed behind.

Originally, I had made up my mind to see what His Highness Taisun looked like, and whether he was as good as the rumors, as if he was a banished immortal.

It was a pity that he never dared to raise his head to look at His Highness Taisun because of the pomp and circumstance on the pier.

Even now, I waited until the dock was completely out of sight before I spoke to Jin Kaishan.

Jin Kaishan laughed and scolded: "You little bastard, you are usually the bravest."

"Why are you in front of His Highness the Grand Sun? I don't even have the courage to raise my head. I'm a coward."

"Why ask this general? Why don't you ask them?"

Jin Kaishan pointed to the other subordinates who had just followed him and said.

At this time, several other subordinates could only smile awkwardly and did not cancel the person who had just asked the question.

Jin Kaishan was stunned for a moment and said: "None of you dare to raise your head?"

One of them sneered and said, "That's because we respect His Highness Taisun from the bottom of our hearts. If we dare to go overboard in the slightest, we naturally never raise our heads."

"General, you just want to talk to us."

Jin Kaishan smiled and said: "You guys, if you want to know His Highness Taisun's face, then work hard for me. If you get credit, His Highness Taisun will naturally summon you again."

Several subordinates looked at each other, and then one of them said: "General, aren't we just escorting Concubine Yue to Champa? What merit can we get for this matter, and why is it worthy of being summoned by His Highness the Grand Sun?
