Chen Ju is not dissatisfied with Gao Pragmatic, he has always been Gao Pragmatic's ally, and to some extent, he is one of Gao Pragmatic's two major helpers in the inner court.

Of course, this can only be "to some extent", because whether he is or Huang Mengyu, in the final analysis, he is the emperor's domestic slave, not a pragmatic domestic slave. Therefore, if they have to "divide the components", both of them can only be regarded as allies with high pragmatism, but this "alliance" is mainly based on high pragmatism.

Therefore, when facing Zhu Yijun, although Chen Ju can be biased towards high pragmatism, he cannot completely stand on a highly pragmatic position to speak, and it is possible that he will never recover.

The two points he put forward were not aimed at Gao Pragmatic, in fact, according to his understanding of Gao Pragmatic, such an obvious loophole, it is impossible for Gao Pragmatic not to know, and it is impossible not to plug the leakage, so he put it forward, which can not only show that his position is consistent with the emperor, but also lead to Gao Pragmatic's backhand, so that the emperor can dispel the last trace of concern.

Sure enough, as soon as Chen Ju said this, Zhu Yijun smiled and said: "Whether the toasts can beat Annan or not, this I am really hard to say, but pragmatic people are in Guangxi, and he knows the strength of the toasts better than me in the palace, since he dares to do this, he should be somewhat sure." ”

"What's more, take 10,000 steps back, even if the toasts can't beat it in the end, it's not a big problem. The loss of some strength by the toasts is not unacceptable to me. And the threat of Annan...... Heh, even if the Tusi are defeated, I don't believe that Annan would dare to offend me in Guangxi without solving the Li Dynasty. ”

This is true, if the Mo Dynasty dares to send troops north to Guangxi now, Zheng Song on the Li Dynasty side will definitely lead the troops to attack Shenglong without saying a word, so Zhu Yijun's judgment is no problem.

Although there is an old saying, "Brothers are on the wall, and they are insulted by the outside", but the Li Dynasty did not regard Mo Chao as a brother, they regarded Mo Chao as a rebellious, rather than paraphrasing this sentence, it is better to paraphrase the sentence of the old witch of Cixi in Taqing Dynasty: "Rather give to friends than house slaves"! Because the Li Dynasty and the Mo Dynasty have been fighting for so many years, the two sides have long formed a blood feud, and it is simply a situation of endless death.

Zhu Yijun said again: "As for whether the toasts are willing to send troops, I am not worried about pragmatic means, not to mention that these toasts themselves were targeted by Mo Maoqia, even if they don't, most of them have to give pragmatic face." ”

Chen Ju fully did a good job of the role of praise, and said with a surprised face: "Why is this? ”

Zhu Yijun sat on the royal couch, leaned back obliquely, and said comfortably: "First, he is a patrolman, and no one dares to be involved in one of these toasts, otherwise, even if he does not die, he will lose his skin; Second, he just negotiated such a big deal with this group of toasts, and the toasts are waiting for his rice to be cooked, and if they don't listen to him at this time, will this business continue? Is that because you are afraid that you will be stuck if you have more money? ”

Chen Ju suddenly realized and praised: "I see, the slave and maid understand, it is really a saint but the emperor." ”

Zhu Yijun smiled, but unceremoniously took this sycophant, and then said: "As for whether pragmatism will lose a lot, it depends on which aspect you are talking about." Although he said that he would mobilize some of his family members to go with the Tusi, but as far as I know, his family members have not fought any battles, and in the past few years, they have often suppressed bandits near Gyeonggi, and Shuntianfu has spent a lot of money on this, and the effect is good, but it should be very different from fighting with the army......

I estimate that if he doesn't send his family to fight a big war, but just beats the side drum, it might be fine, but if he fights, it's hard to say. But with my understanding of him, I'm afraid he won't easily let the family members fight too dangerous battles, and the losses should be relatively limited, the main role of these family members ...... In my opinion, one is to show an attitude, and the other is to deter Toast. ”

Chen Ju naturally touted again, and then said: "What about the loss of financial resources?" Gao Zhi pointed out that not only did he send thousands of troops, but also supported some expenses of the toasts, this ...... Adding up before and after, I'm afraid that I can't beat it without hundreds of thousands of taels, and this money is a little distressing. ”

Zhu Yijun laughed, laughing inexplicably, and said with some embarrassment: "Slave maid...... But something wrong? ”

"It's not okay to think about it, but you are too underestimate and pragmatic, when did he ever make a loss-making deal?" Zhu Yijun touched his chin that didn't have a thick beard at all, and said: "He has two considerations, one is that if he can occupy Annan and truly expand the territory for my Ming Dynasty, then he will ask me to give him the right to open mines and ports at will in Annan; The second is, if it is untenable, then break Thang Long and give Thang Long City to ...... Well, clean it up. ”

After all, he is the emperor of the Celestial Empire, and it is a little disgraceful to say that the looting, so Zhu Yijun temporarily changed his words, and "looting" became "cleanup".

However, what Chen Ju cared about was not the idea of sacking Thang Long City, but the first thought, Gao Zhizhi wanted to occupy Annan?

"Emperor, the place of Annan...... Do you really want us to take it ourselves? Chen Ju asked tentatively.

Zhu Yijun waved his hand: "Don't, what are we going to do when we occupy it, do you think that the loss was not enough back then?" The pragmatic meaning is that let the toasts occupy it, and the court only needs to give the toasts a name. ”

Chen Ju couldn't believe it and asked, "But the toasts are not stupid, go and occupy Annan...... Will they be willing? ”

Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "Their original territory is not as good as Annan, and now one acre of land in Guinan, Guixi, will be changed to two or even three acres in Annan, do you think they will be unwilling?" It's like if you are a court official, you were originally the prefect of Liuzhou, and now I have transferred you to be the prefect of Suzhou, are you happy? ”

Nonsense, of course I'm happy, in this era of the Ming Dynasty, ten Liuzhou mansions can't catch up with one Suzhou mansion to be rich, so fools are not happy.

Chen Ju understood now, and also laughed: "It turns out that Gao Zhizhi is generous to others, Gao Ming, Gao Ming!" ”

Zhu Yijun laughed, Gao pragmatic did it beautifully, and his classmate was also very happy, and said: "It's not just generosity to others, he is actually driving tigers and wolves, he wants the toasts to take the hereditary territory to exchange with him for the land of Annan, maybe one for two, maybe one for three, but no matter how it is exchanged, in short, let them hand over their 'ancestral property' in Guangxi, but go to Annan to seek greater benefits." ”

Zhu Yijun said, feeling more and more that Gao Pragmatic was really the best auxiliary minister left to him by his father, and said with a smile: "One for one, that is definitely no one to change, after all, the land of the ancestral industry, where the foundation is." One for two, that's not easy to say, it's a good deal, and pragmatic and ready to allow them to move the people of their ancestors' old land. If it's one for three...... I really can't think of anyone who would refuse, it's equivalent to a county for a house, a house for a house, this deal is simply too cost-effective, even if I am in the position of those toasts, I can't help but eat this fragrant bait! ”

"Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor!" Chen Ju hurriedly said: "Gao Zhi pointed out that if this plan is realized, it will not only expand the territory, but also lay the most solid foundation for the imperial court to completely pacify Guangxi." When the local people move south, the imperial court can move a large number of Han people to Guangxi, and once the Han people account for the majority, like the Yao people rebellion, there will be no more trouble. ”

Zhu Yijun said with emotion: "Yes, yes, if this thing is done, it will be a real achievement, Yu Zhen is like this, and Yu Pragmatic is the same." Previously, I was pragmatic and forced to go to Guangxi to take up a foreign post, and I really felt sorry for him, but now it seems that he is not discouraged at all, let alone the slightest resentment, he is still conscientious and conscientious, and he does his best for me. ”

He suddenly said with a resolute face: "Chen Ju, since this matter was told to me in the form of a secret performance, it can be seen that its internal situation cannot be passed on, but you can quietly let out the wind and let the outer court know that I have made up my mind, and you must help pragmatic settle this matter, not only for him, but also for me, for the southwest border of the Ming Dynasty to be forever!" ”

"Slaves obey!"
