Chapter 591: A Twin Kingdom
Master, what do you think you are going to do about this? Li Wuflawless anxiously asked. Originally, the eldest brother died, she was extremely sad, and even blamed herself a little and regretted it, if she could have a good talk with Liu Chun, maybe the eldest brother would not have died.
But now that Li Jinglong is suddenly alive, Li Wuflaw was overjoyed at first, but soon he couldn't be happy. Your Majesty has done all the funerals, how will this end?
Speaking of which, is there any precedent?
There really is!
Far away, close at hand.
It's Yoo Chun.
He "died" in Lingdingyang at that time, and Zhu Yunwen hurriedly held a funeral for him, but Liu Chun and Zhu Yunwen were not cars running on the same road at all, so it was nothing remarkable.
But now the situation is different, Li Jinglong suddenly lived, do you want to take back all the holy decrees?
"I think that's probably the only way to do it, and it's a mistake." Liu Chun said helplessly: "You can't go and strangle your eldest brother to death, right?" ”
Li Wufeng glared at him, "What nonsense are you talking about?" That's my big brother! Li Wuflawless said this, but it was difficult to calm down in his heart. It is easy to say that it is easy to take back your fate, but where to put the face of the Son of Heaven? When Li Wufeng was reading history books, he found that there was once a minister who was just sick, but the emperor personally visited him and died within a few days.
If you don't die, you can't do it, otherwise you're a bully!
Maybe letting the eldest brother die, maybe it's still a way that doesn't work.
Of course, Li Wufang will not let Li Jinglong die, she is just worried now, what should I do about this?
It's nerve-wracking!
In fact, she is not the only one who is worried, the Ministry of Rites, the Cabinet, as well as the Hanlin Academy, the Guozijian, and the big guys are all staring at each other. How do you calculate this?
Daming does not have a tradition of being crowned king with a different surname, unless he dies, he will be posthumously crowned a king, Li Jinglong has now won the king of the open sea, this must be taken back.
But what procedure to follow?
Simply annul the will, or recover the gift...... How to write this will, because the court did not understand whether people are dead or alive, and made a joke, so it was canceled?
There is also the matter of Li Xian, now that he is Cao Guogong, what should I do, tell him, you return Cao Guogong's position to your father?
Historically, titles have only been inherited, and there is no return......
This, it's too hard!
The Ministry of Rites called the Hanlin Academy and the Guozijian over, and even the cabinet inquired about it, and they got together, but they didn't come up with a plan.
In the end, they had to find Yoo Chun.
"Lord Liu, you have revised the Emperor Ming Ancestral Teachings, do you know what to do with this kind of thing?"
Liu Chun rolled his eyes, "I'm not familiar with etiquette, how do I know?" ”
Yang Shiqi was about to cry, "Lord Liu, you must find a way to do this, Your Majesty will ask tomorrow, if we can't satisfy Your Majesty, we will be in big trouble." ”
Liu Chun thought hard, "The prince must be recovered, as for the prince, I think it is enough to let Li Jinglong hand it over to Li Xian directly." ”
Yang Shiqi said: "This can save half of the trouble, but can Li Jinglong be willing?" ”
"The meat is rotten in the pot, what is he not going to promise. Besides, without the status of a national prince, he may be able to be more free! I'll find a way to talk to him. ”
When these people heard this, they immediately happily accepted the order, and with Liu Chun's help to settle the matter, it was much more convenient, and they could finally have an explanation.
Everyone couldn't help but be overjoyed, but no one expected that when this plan was sent, Zhu Di would oppose it.
"Since Li Jinglong is alive, he should not be crowned king, I agree with this, but he has made such a great contribution, he can't help but reward him. How can you take it away if you are a good countryman? ”
Yang Shiqi hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, if Li Jinglong is allowed to restore the position of Cao Guogong, Li Xian will be abolished, this matter is a bit troublesome." ”
"No trouble!" Zhu Di laughed decisively, "What's the trouble, this thing is very easy." ”
Everyone was puzzled and said together: "Your Majesty respectfully listens to His Majesty's hadiths. ”
Zhu Di said happily: "It's very simple, Li Xian is still Cao Guogong, and Li Jinglong is renamed Taibao, and Hai Guogong is it." ”
Zhu Di gave the simplest plan, he only needed to make an order to change Li Jinglong to the Duke of Haiguo, and there would be no controversy - a fart!
The courtiers present were insane.
What are you kidding?
Li Jinglong, how can he be a double man, is he worthy?
You must know that Xu Zengshou is still alive at the moment, the title of Duke of Wei has been temporarily abolished, and there is only one Duke of Dingguo in the entire Xu family.
Li Jinglong is what kind of thing, he actually has Cao Guogong and Hai Guogong, two big princes, and one double duke!
Your Majesty, have you gone mad?
Even if you are kind to the warriors who go to sea, you can't go too far.
Li Jinglong escaped death and gave him some rewards, which is naturally deserved, but it can't be too much, so what do you think of the founding heroes and the upstarts of Jingnan? Will they be convinced?
Everyone shook their heads together, and none of them agreed.
Some people even put their eyes horizontally, and said that if they really did this, we would fight! Especially the six branches, according to the ancestral teachings, they can still refute the holy decree!
This power was given by Zhu Yuanzhang, but in the Hongwu Dynasty, no one dared to use it, and now in the face of Emperor Yongle, he had to try.
Even if we annoy the Son of Heaven, we will not hesitate to do it.
Zhu Di looked at these courtiers and smiled slightly, "Spread my will, go and call all the courtiers, I have something to say to the big guy." ”
Mu En hurriedly went to deliver the decree, Zhu Di temporarily retreated to the back to rest, and before retreating, he gave Liu Chun a look. Liu Chun understood and didn't say much.
His heart quickly calculated, and according to Li Jinglong's return, he found Dongfan Island.
Compared with Java, Dongfan Island is closer to Daming and has better development conditions. If everything really goes well, it is not too much to give Li Jinglong a position as a national prince.
After all, Dongfan Island is too important to Daming.
Liu Chun is also quite confused now, could it be that Li Jinglong, this guy is really lucky, he can pick up artifacts when he goes out, and he can hatch strange beasts by buying an egg?
Could it be that he should change his name to Li Aotian?
The more Liu Chun thought about it, the more interesting it became, and he couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth.
At this time, the other ministers had already arrived one after another, and when they found Liu Chun smiling secretly, Qiu Fu couldn't help but walk in front of him, "Lord Liu, I know the relationship between you and Li Jinglong, but this time, I, Qiu Fu, must not sit idly by and watch the Li family become a double prince!" ”
Even Zhu Neng secretly poked and ran over and chatted with Liu Chun, "Isn't it too good for Li Jinglong?" ”
Liu Chun spread his hands and said: "What you should do, I have no opinion, it is all up to Your Majesty to decide." Liu Chun was very unrighteous and kicked the ball to Zhu Di.
At this moment, all the important ministers came, including the old thief Daoyan, almost everyone was ready to fight to the end!
At this time, Zhu Di finally returned to the dragon chair.
"Ladies and gentlemen, what happened this time, I think you all know it, Li Jinglong is not dead, he found a desert island for me, a desert island with a big top. You say, 'How shall I reward him?' ”
After a moment of silence, Qiu Fu stood up, "Your Majesty, Li Jinglong has indeed made meritorious contributions to the sea, and he has died nine times in his life, which is also admirable, and the minister thinks that His Majesty can reward ten thousand gold, which is enough to show the emperor's grace." ”
After Qiu Fu finished speaking, it was very rare, and a large group of civil and military officers stood up, and their tones were similar.
can get the unanimous opposition of the civil and military, Li Jinglong doesn't know whether to be happy or cry.
Zhu Di smiled and slowly stood up, "I understand your thoughts, do you think that a desert island is irrelevant?" ”
"Then I will tell you! How amazing this desert island is! ”
Zhu Di's tone suddenly became high-pitched, and his expression was full of strong excitement.
"This Dongfan Island is one-third the size of Zhejiang. The acres of land that can be developed on the island are at least more than 10 million acres! Moreover, the island has fertile land and very high rainfall, which is most suitable for growing sugar cane. ”
"Sugar cane, you know? It's the kind that can squeeze sugar! Ladies and gentlemen, how much is a tael of sucrose on the market now? I can tell you that the best cane sugar can be sold for 25 Wen, and the worst can be sold for 15 Wen! A mere tael of cane sugar is so much money! ”
"If tens of millions of acres of fertile land are planted with sugarcane, how much sucrose can be produced? I'm afraid that every family can't finish it! ”
Zhu Dixing hurriedly said: "The population of Dongfan Island is not large, only some natives and a small number of Han people. Sugarcane is grown there, and there is no worry about occupying rice fields, and it can be planted openly. Not only to sell to Daming, but also to sell overseas! The price of sugar overseas is more than ten times higher than that of Daming! ”
"You understand, Dongfan Island, if it is properly managed, cane sugar alone can supply the national treasury with 10 million taels of annual revenue!"
After Zhu Di said this, he couldn't help but raise his arm and wave it hard, he was so excited.
"I now ask you, if anyone can add 10,000,000 taels of income to me every year, I will immediately crown him the title of the prince! If you have the ability, stand up! ”
In the huge Golden Palace, only Liu Chun can turn stones into gold, and he will not jump out and dismantle the stage. The rest of the ministers can only look at each other, what else can they say, it turns out that fools also have spring!
Zhu Di patrolled three times, no one dared to look at him, Zhu Di sneered, "Very good, since you don't have this ability, what else are you not convinced?" ”
Stalemate for a moment, Ru Yu, Yang Jing, Jian Yi...... Including Zhu Neng and Qiu Fu, like dominoes, they all knelt down, pinched their noses and said: "The ministers have nothing to say, Li Jinglong deserves his name!" ”
The civil and military officers were like eating flies. Zhu Di was overjoyed, "Zhongqing, how to develop Dongfan Island, I want to hear your opinions, this is a business of tens of millions of taels a year!" ”
