Chapter 444: Preparing for the Meeting
"It's hard for you." As soon as Hu Yan spoke, Yang Chendong figured out what the problem was, and nodded immediately, "Then go into the city and have a look, Humang, tell Tie Qingyi and them to get ready, and transfer the First Guard to the two ladies." ”
"It's better not to, it's okay to have Iron Captain, and the First Guard Team should stay by your side." Hu Yan said with a look of refusal.
"It's okay, the Second Guard Team has already been trained, and Captain Dao Xiao has complained to me more than once, saying that he has the ability to take the lead alone, so give them a chance now. Besides, as long as Kuang Ye and the others were not kicked in the head by the donkey, they would definitely not dare to embarrass my husband. ”
"Huh." Listening to Yang Chendong's last witty words, Hu Yan covered her mouth and chuckled, knowing that this was her husband's own good, and it was also a sign of concern, so she agreed, "Okay, then I'll tell Sister Xue the good news, and make her happy." ”
After Hu Yan finished speaking, she really left the big tent, and her face was very happy when she left. Looking at this scene, Yang Chendong also had to sigh, it's good to be young.
Yang Chendong is still very satisfied with the relationship between several ladies, but he also knows that it can't always be like this. Once they get older, their ideas become more mature; Once you have a child, conflicts of interest will naturally appear; Once you really create something great, then the question of who inherits and how much each inherits. At that time, I still want to have such a close relationship as I do now, I'm afraid it's impossible.
But after just thinking about it, Yang Chendong quickly shook his head, that is still a very distant thing, why think about it so much now, let's think about the meeting with Kuang Ye first.
After receiving information about Nanjing yesterday, Yang Chendong knew that he was disappointed, and he also saw clearly the status he wanted in Zhu Qizhen's mind.
Others can be crowned kings, but they can't be born themselves. In this way, how jealous the other party is of himself!
In other words, I have formed such an image in the other person's heart, and it is difficult or even impossible to change. Even if you disband the mercenaries now, it is just a temporary peace, and it is equally impossible to have peace for a lifetime.
Once the opportunity is seized and any trick is created, I am afraid that then it will be the time when the army is coming to the door and being locked up.
In the final analysis, after the temptation required by the king this time, Yang Chendong had already seen that Zhu Qizhen would not tolerate his results. Even if this is the case, then he does not have any illusions, and directly shows his strong side, that is, even if it is for self-protection, for the safety of his family and relatives, he must have enough strength.
Of course, even after experiencing these things, the strategy in Yang Chendong's heart has not changed. That is, to encircle the light and not attack.
Although the Ming Dynasty was divided into north and south, most of the people still lived a good life. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the social economy was restored and developed through the Hongwu, Jianwen and Yongle dynasties, and the two dynasties of Renzong and Xuanzong saw a social and economic prosperity.
During the reign of Emperor Akihito, "stop purchasing, redress injustice, pay tribute to all accompanying assets, and benefit the people together." He ordered the rest of the army to support the people, and stopped the treasure ships from going to the West, and stopped the royal procurement of jewelry. These practices have eased social contradictions, allowed the people to recuperate, developed productive forces, and opened an era of stability and prosperity. After Ming Xuanzong ascended the throne, he quickly quelled the rebellion of Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Han, and continued the concept of governing the country of Ming Renzong, implemented the policy of heavy agriculture, punished corruption for famine, continued to reuse the "three Yangs", rested the army to support the people, and punished the famine and punished corruption, so that the Ming Dynasty was stable and the social economy developed rapidly.
During their reign, the politics were clear, the law and discipline were strict, the economy was developed, the warehouses were substantial, the people lived in peace, the society was stable, and there was a sign of peace, forming the Shengping landscape of the early Ming Dynasty. Later generations called it "the rule of Renxuan", which was comparable to the "rule of Chengkang" in the Zhou Dynasty, the "rule of Wenjing" in the Han Dynasty and the rule of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty.
If it weren't for the tenth year of Xuande (1435), Zhu Zhanji died at the age of thirty-eight. If Renxuan's rule is over, even if Yang Chendong comes here, he will also appear with Okura, and it will be very difficult to make any achievements.
In the face of the Ming Dynasty, which is extremely powerful economically and militarily, Yang Chendong wants to do something, which is tantamount to disobeying social development, and he is unpopular with the people first.
It is precisely because the foundation of the Ming Dynasty is so good that after the defeat of civil engineering and the rebellion in the south, the strong foundation of the Ming Dynasty is still there, and many people still have their hearts returned to the imperial court, especially in the hearts of the people, the Ming Dynasty is still very strong and worthy of their reliance.
In such an environment, even if Yang Chendong can win the Ming Emperor of the North and South and rule the imperial court, it is inevitable that there will be many complaints among the people, and even those who rise up should not be few. If this is the case, that is Hermes-Epitek's infighting, a powerful self-consumption, which is definitely not what Yang Chendong wants to see.
Is he going to take them to dominate the world? In the future, they will be extremely proud to be born in a Han family. Just like the people of country M in later generations, they are not arrogant wherever they go, and in other countries, if something happens to the people of country M, the attention of the local government is not completely different, which is the benefit that strength brings to the people.
Yang Chendong pursues an existence that is still higher than the people of country M, and the place to be conquered is too big, and countless pure Han people are needed to rule there. If it is consumed too much in the Ming Dynasty, there is so much territory, and there is no reliable person to manage it. With this article, he can't have a civil war in the territory of the Ming Dynasty and in the place where the Han people live.
Thinking of this, Yang Chendong shook his head lightly, he believed that Zhu Qizhen would not know these thoughts of his own, not only him, but also other people would not know, and they didn't even dare to think about it. But it can't be denied that although Zhu Qizhen doesn't know what he thinks, such a step-by-step pressure makes him unable to fight back, so he can only admit it.
Of course, while reluctantly admitting everything, Yang Chendong also has to actively ask for benefits, as long as it is not too much, presumably the other party will definitely agree. Even if you want to make your own efforts, it is unjustifiable not to give the slightest benefit.
"Young Master, you're all ready to go." Hu Mang once again entered the account and asked for instructions.
"Let's go." Yang Chendong agreed, strode straight out of the tent.
Gaozhou City.
Although not far from the city, the nearly 70,000 troops of the Miao army were stationed, but under the pacification of Kuang Ye and others, the order in the city was still carried out in an orderly manner.
This is the benefit of being able to be a minister, just like Kuang Ye, although he is a secretary of the military department, but in fact, the ability to manage the place is also very strong, this kind of all-round talent is also what the emperor likes, if you meet a famous monarch, there will be more room for development.
Speaking of which, if it weren't for Kuang Ye's age and a little rigid thinking, Yang Chendong would have thought about tying up this person and sending him to Chiji City to be reformed for his own use.
Under the tower of Gaozhou Mansion, the city gate was opened. But unlike in the past, the city gate was opened, and the people could not go out of the city at will, only some Ming soldiers were guarding here, and there were Kuang Ye, Guan Ying, Ma Wei, Yu Guang and others with them.
They appeared here to welcome Yang Chendong. When they saw the army in camouflage uniforms coming from a distance, Kuang Ye and the others even arranged their official uniforms and looked ahead expectantly.
Although Yang Chendong's wish to be crowned king did not come true this time, this did not prevent Kuang Ye from thinking about his people. In their hearts, if anyone can solve the dilemma and crisis in the southwest of the Ming Dynasty, then Yang Chendong will definitely be the best choice.
It's just that the emperor doesn't agree to be crowned king, and Kuang Ye, as the secretary of the military department, can naturally only obey. While he took today's opportunity to transmit the holy decree, he also hoped to persuade Yang Chendong to focus on the overall situation, even if the emperor did not promise you, but if there was a good performance, the matter of sealing the king may not be unrealized.
Of course, for such a conversation, even Kuang Ye himself has no confidence, so that it is clear that he is already the secretary of the military department, and he still has the official position of the crown prince and the prince, and he is already an official from the first grade, but when he saw the iconic luxury carriage coming, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous in his heart.
Don't look at Yang Chendong is only twenty-one years old, in Kuang Ye's heart, he is indeed enough to treat him as a contemporary, because this person is too smart, talking about things with such a person, all the cleverness can be avoided, it is better to be sincere, and maybe a good result will be achieved.
The luxury carriage is getting closer and closer, and at a distance of three hundred meters from the Gaozhou city gate, a company of elite cold fronts has already rushed forward first, taking over the city defense here, and after not finding any danger, this made a safe gesture, and then the luxury carriage continued to move forward until it came to Kuang Ye and the others.
Seeing such a cautious look in Kuang Ye's eyes, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he knew that this was not Yang Chendong's fear of what kind of trap he would set, but he just wanted to tell him in this way that the relationship between the two parties was far less intimate than before, and even if you make a request, you have to be a little measured.
The carriage finally stopped in front of Kuang Ye and the others, and then the tall Yang Ershen opened the curtain of the carriage, and then Yang Chendong, who was dressed in green clothes, walked out of it.
Compared with Yang Chendong he saw a while ago, this time his complexion has become much more ruddy, and his whole person seems to be a little more energetic, of course, it is not enough to compare with the best state before. But the more he looks like this, the more he looks like he has just recovered from a serious illness, and the more it can be confirmed that he did have a serious illness before.
