Chapter 91 You are a little less courageous than your father (2)
"This..." Zhu Gaochi was speechless for a moment and could not speak.
"If you were the King of Yan!" Zhu Yunxi looked at him, "What would you do? Should you befriend and support Wala, win over other tribes, and then enjoy the benefits of being a fisherman? Or should you resolutely gather troops and directly join the war?"
Zhu Gaochi lowered his head, "Well...if it's a minister, the first option is to wait and see what happens and form an alliance with him."
This is the safest way to support Oara as a thorn in the side of various ministries in the Northern Yuan Dynasty, and then the Ming Dynasty can obtain maximum benefits at the minimum cost.
But.....
"What your father thinks is definitely completely different from yours!" Zhu Yunxi smiled.
Zhu Gaochi said nothing and smiled honestly.
"This is the difference between you and your father. You want to be safe, but your father, King Yan, wants to be safe once and for all!" After saying that, Zhu Yunxi paused and smiled, "I guess your father should be here now.
On the way to Beijing, the troops and horses in Peiping have already been prepared!"
Zhu Gaochi was shocked and quickly stood up and said, "Of course my father would not dare to do anything about such a big matter..."
"If you miss an opportunity, you won't get it again. Your father came to Beijing to see me just to explain to me why he did what he did! Come to Beijing quickly, return quickly, and then send out troops immediately!" Zhu Yunxi interrupted the other party with a smile, "Wala and
The tribes of the Northern Yuan Dynasty were fighting head-on, and your father's extraordinary troops attacked, using the Oara tribe as bait to surround and annihilate the tribes of the Northern Yuan Dynasty."
"What the hell, how did he know?"
A thin layer of cold sweat broke out on Zhu Gaochi's forehead, and he was filled with surprise.
"If the fight doesn't go well, use the Wala as cannon fodder. If the fight goes well, turn around and eat the Wala." Zhu Yunxi said with a smile, "Isn't that right?"
After saying that, he looked at Zhu Gaochi and asked, "He hasn't arrived yet, but I already know his intention. Do you think your father's plan for Beiyuan can be accomplished?"
"I dare not speak nonsense!" Zhu Gaochi stood up and said.
"Sit down!" Zhu Yunxi pressed his hands, sighed and laughed, "This is the difference between you and your father! This is also the place where you are not as good as him!"
Zhu Gaochi was startled and his face was full of surprise.
"Do you think it is most time-saving and labor-saving to form an alliance, canonize and then divide?" Zhu Yunxi asked with a smile.
"I just saw you for a moment!"
"Actually, you are right to think so. If the Ming Dynasty also participated in the civil strife in the Northern Yuan Dynasty and directly used troops, it would not only easily cause the various ministries of the Northern Yuan Dynasty to unite to resist, but also cost countless dollars."
"But you haven't seen the other side!" Zhu Yunxi said, tapping the table again with his slender fingers.
Seeing that he only spoke half of what he said, Zhu Gaochi said with a knowing voice, "I am stupid and my eyesight is not as good as the emperor's case!"
"You're already doing well!" Zhu Yunxi smiled, and then said seriously, "You haven't seen that now is when Bei Yuan is at his weakest!"
"In a few years, the Northern Yuan Dynasty was defeated at Yuerhai, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses outside the Great Wall were wiped out. Their vitality was seriously damaged!" Zhu Yunxi said in a low voice, "Elbek is ignorant and ignorant, and all the ministries are clumsy.
.Moreover, under the continuous attacks of the Ming Dynasty, all the tribes in the grassland have continued to shrink and move northward. The tribes have suffered heavy casualties and have long been tired of war. The way of animal husbandry economy is even worse."
"Now Bei Yuan is the weakest Bei Yuan. Your father's idea is very simple, kill him while he is sick! Your father wants to kill others, but what you want is to give others a chance!"
"If you cut the grass without eradicating the root, it will grow again when the spring breeze blows! You should understand this truth!"
Suddenly, Zhu Gaochi felt a bit competitive in his heart, and said unconvincedly, "The grass can never be removed cleanly. I feel that it is better to use it for military purposes than to use it for military purposes. The Northern Yuan Dynasty is too weak to be a climate."
, the internal strife in various ministries will only become weaker and weaker. It is best for our Ming Dynasty to reap the benefits, and the use of troops is a major matter. If the war does not go well..."
"You are a little less courageous than your father!" Zhu Yunxi interrupted with a smile.
"My lord..." Zhu Gaochi was speechless for a moment.
What Zhu Gaochi thought was not wrong, and was even the most correct approach, but he never thought of one thing, that is, only dead enemies are the best enemies.
Perhaps that was exactly what he was thinking, so later Ming Dynasty's active attack on foreign countries turned into passive defense. As a result, his grandson, the second generation of the Ming God of War, directly let the Mongols catch the Mongolians on the grassland to eat the leek flowers and eat the meat with their hands.
Conservatism is a common problem in the entire empire, not just Zhu Gaochi.
"Where is your father now?" Zhu Yunxi asked casually.
"he....?"
"Don't hide it. I just said that your father will definitely be on the way when this letter arrives. He came to Beijing this time to explain his interests to me and ask me to allow him to send troops. With his temperament,
It’s impossible to stay in Peiping.”
Zhu Gaochi looked at Zhu Yunxi's face and said, "My father told me to hurry up and work harder. I think we should be in Shandong by now."
"Well! That'll be soon!" Zhu Yunxi put the letter into the drawer of the imperial cabinet.
Zhu Gaochi slowly stood up and said, "If nothing happens to your Majesty, I would like to..."
"Why are you so anxious?" Zhu Yunxi said with a smile, "I saw it was dinner time, so you stayed and ate with me!"
~~
The bastard took two eunuchs and brought the dining table in from outside.
Zhu Gaochi glanced at the dishes on the table, his expression full of surprise.
A small bowl of rice, a dish of fried bacon with dried radish, a dish of fried fish, and a bowl of cabbage and tofu soup.
"This...?" Zhu Gaochi hesitated for a moment, "Your Majesty, will you use this...?"
"It's already very good!" Zhu Yunxi smiled and sat cross-legged on the edge of the kang table. "I always like to eat these home-cooked meals, but I can't eat big fish and meat!" He said, smiling, "Come together!"
Zhu Gaochi hurriedly stood up and loaded food for Zhu Yunxi.
"I feel that Your Majesty is too austere!" Zhu Gaochi thought about it and said with a smile, "I'm afraid even the wealthy families in the south of the Yangtze River would disdain this kind of dishes..."
"You also said that you are a rich man. Ordinary people celebrate the New Year when they see meat. There are fish and meat on my dining table, so how can I live in poverty?" Zhu Yunxi smiled and poured the soup from the dried radish and bacon on the rice and said.
, "You and I, the emperor's descendants, must not be arrogant and extravagant!"
As he said that, he took a few mouthfuls of rice and continued to smile, "The palace's annual expenses from now on will be controlled at around 70,000 yuan. The royal family is a model for the world. It should cherish the people's power when it is supported by all the people."
"Not only am I like this, but my descendants will also be like this in the future. Diligence and thrift are good strategies for running a family and virtue for governing a country."
"I still remember that when the emperor's grandmother was still alive, whenever the emperor led the officials to pray for rain, the meals they ate were prepared by the emperor's grandmother, which was coarse grain leaf vegetable porridge from poor families. I remember one year,
Because the Great Drought Emperor lived in the Temple of Heaven for three full days, and all he ate during those three days was whole grains, leafy vegetables, and paste."
"At that time, Grandpa Huang and my late father said, compared with the war period, this is already very good, at least it is food for people to eat!"
"It is not easy to lead a country, but it is even harder to build a country. I know that you are very dissatisfied with my dealings with you vassal kings. You think that I am making a fuss out of a molehill, and privately say that I am mean and ungrateful..."
"I understand this!" Zhu Gaochi broke into a cold sweat.
"I didn't say it, but I must have it in my heart!" Zhu Yunxi smiled, "Have you ever thought about it, if the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, the first generation of feudal princes will be arrogant and extravagant. What will happen in the future?" As he said, he gave the gift with his own hands.
Zhu Gaochi took a chopstick of vegetables and put them in his opponent's bowl, "I heard that my sixth uncle, King Chu, had more than seventy kinds of dishes for a meal. So where is eating? Is that money? Where did he get the money?
"
Zhu Gaochi lowered his head fiercely and filled his mouth.
"Don't pick it up! Don't pick it up!" Zhu Gaochi thought to himself, "If I follow his words, maybe I will be the knife in his hand when dealing with Uncle Six in the future!"
"It's a good thing that your father is here this time. I have a lot to say to him!" Zhu Yunxi continued with a smile, "By the way, look at me, I forgot that you father and son haven't seen each other for a long time!"
As he spoke, he pondered for a moment, "Family and flesh are separated, hey, two people miss each other!"
"What do you mean? You want me and dad to go back to Peking?" Zhu Gaochi was shocked.
"You are also a married man!" Zhu Yunxi said, "Well, when I see your father, I will tell him to send your wife to the capital so that you can reunite!"
"I'll kill you!" Zhu Gaochi cursed in his heart, "You don't count me, but you also bring my wife here, right? You are so bad, you bad bastard!"
