At the beginning of May, the north and south of the river vaguely seem to be able to feel the sullenness of summer, for the Huai River (the Yellow River returns to its hometown) in the capital, but it is the most pleasant time of the year, after a few days, after the summer, the court and the royal family will go to the summer palace in Haizhou to escape the summer.

At this time, the palace is full of flowers among the lush trees, and walking on the cobbled paths is greeted by the pleasant fragrance of flowers and grass.

It's all so good!

Different from the previous dress, Zhu Mingzhong is now dressed very casually, and it can even be said that he looks out of character - short pockets, shorts, look at that appearance, there seems to be no difference from the soldiers in training, in fact, this kind of T-shirt and shorts are the summer training uniforms in the army, compared with other clothing, it is more comfortable to wear in the summer.

Zhu Mingzhong's face was full of joy. The female officials and palace ladies who were close to them saw it, and they all felt His Majesty's joy, but they were not worried that His Majesty would lose his temper with them, in fact, in their eyes, His Majesty was a person without temper, of course, this is also fundamentally related to the stability of the country and the stability of the current situation. If the country is troubled, the emperor will definitely become suspicious and irritable.

But now, Daming has something to do except for Shaanxi, and the world can be said to be "peaceful", and the emperor's mood is naturally impossible to get worse.

There are two reasons why Zhu Mingzhong is happy today. First of all, the military commander entered the palace to play a secret message to him, saying that the Qing captives had entered the Western Regions, and Yarkand and Oirat Mongols were destroyed.

This news is a very good news for Zhu Mingzhong, I am afraid that only God knows, for him, the decision to suspend the use of troops in Shaanxi has put him under pressure, not only the dissatisfaction of the army, what the army needs is only military merit, and military merit is only a matter of time.

The real pressure comes from the imperial court, from the people, and even from Shaanxi refugees from all over the country! They are constantly exerting pressure to use troops in Shaanxi, of course, they have good reasons to make this request, Shaanxi is the land of the Ming Dynasty, and the people of Shaanxi are the people of the Ming Dynasty.

"Today, the world has been restored by the king, and only Shaanxi is still in the hands of slaves."

"Millions of Li people in Shaanxi are all bitter slaves for a long time, and Yu Wangshi is eager to wear it!"

All these officials will play every month, and their reasons are all these reasons, simple and direct, and no one will refute them.

Shaanxi must be recovered!

Of course, Zhu Mingzhong will not object to this, and he also knows that he should not continue to drag it out. However, the reason why he has been waiting, of course, the so-called "waiting for the railway to be built" is just an excuse, what he needs is to borrow the hand of the Manchu Qing Dynasty to solve the hidden dangers in the western Ming Dynasty.

Facts have proved that the original decision was correct, at least now the affairs of Hezhou and other places have been very successful with the hands of the Manchus, and as a group, those hidden dangers have disappeared, or rather, in the "national harmony", they have been integrated by the Manchus. Of course, this melting is carried out under the action of a butcher's knife.

The man was killed and reduced to bones. Women were snatched away and became fertility machines.

And in the process, the power of the Manchus was strengthened and restored.

Of course, this is not what Zhu Mingzhong wants. In fact, for the Manchu Qing Dynasty, his intention was very clear "to kill people with a knife".

It's to lend their hands and solve problems.

"Yarkand!"

Saying this term, Zhu Mingzhong's face once again squeezed out a smug smile.

This kind of pride is because of the last hidden danger in the Western Regions of Yarkand, only the Manchu Qing continue to treat those people like those colored people, then the problems there will be solved, of course, there are Kazakh and other khanates in addition to Yarkand.

After all, the Manchus needed to strengthen their own strength, and they needed to plunder the population of Kazakhstan and other places, especially women, and in the process, the Manchus seemed to have been strengthened, but the hidden dangers of the Western Regions would also be cleared.

At that time, the railway to the Western Regions was built to Yumen Pass, and at that time, the Ming Dynasty could march into the Western Regions. Of course, when the Manchus were completely defeated, the "female slaves" and their daughters who were plundered by the Manchus would find their masters again.

At that time, the Western Regions will no longer be green, but yellow, which is the color of wheat, and it is the color of the farming people.

The railroad will bring a large number of Central Plains immigrants there, and they will change everything in the Western Regions.

"Almost, it's time to do it!"

Talking to himself like this in his heart, Zhu Mingzhong's brows raised slightly.

In the past five years, he has been patient, enduring all kinds of requests to attack Shaanxi, and some people even said that "Your Majesty wants to avenge the first emperor, and you must die in the West!" ”。

Indeed, in the eyes of many people, the imperial court did not use troops in Shaanxi, just to borrow the Manchu Qing Dynasty to make Shaanxi people, after all, they had forced Chongzhen to death back then.

But...... It's about Lao Tzu!

The originally good mood suddenly became a little bad at this moment, because this statement can be said to be quite marketable in Daming, and it is even widely spread.

"The bird's ambition is to know the bird! I am for the great cause of the Ming Dynasty to occupy the Western Regions! ”

With a sneer, Zhu Mingzhong's tone was full of contempt, he knew who was spreading such rumors, it was nothing more than two kinds of people, one was the frustrated scholars, they were not willing to go away to the South Seas, and they were unwilling to lose their former glory, so they would make a lot of nonsense. There is also a kind of people, their identity is special, they may be refugees from Shaanxi, but they are different from ordinary refugees, their appearance is very different from the Han people, since they are slightly similar, but it can also be seen that they are mixed-race, they are the most miserable group of people under the rule of the Manchus, men were slaughtered, women were plundered into slavery.

But the slaughter inevitably has some fish that slipped through the net, and after those fish escaped to the Ming Dynasty, they cried about the brutality of the Manchus, and cried about how the Manchus killed the people, and in addition to crying, they began to make up what "I want to kill the Westerners by the hands of the slaves to repay my father".

"Do they really think I can't kill?"

With a sneer, Zhu Mingzhong didn't continue to think about those people, when he needed to solve them, he would become more ruthless than the Manchu Qing and would use more ruthless methods to solve them. But now, it's just the wailing of a few ants.

Perhaps, Zhu Mingzhong can dress very casually in the palace, but when he meets the minister, he always has to change into a formal suit.

After changing his clothes, as in the past, Zhu Mingzhong met Gu Yanwu in the imperial study, as the first assistant of Daming Most of the time, Daming's government affairs are in charge of him, which also allows Zhu Mingzhong to be "lazy", of course, this is only relative, after all, many things still need him to make decisions.

"On the third day of the fifth month, Ma Da Lan Su Dan was defeated, in order to retaliate against Ma Da Lan for rebellion, the shock is small, Gui, Qin, and Zhou adopted the method of drawing ten kills and killing tens of thousands of people to the prisoners and the native Ding Zhuang, and then the three kingdoms plundered their natives as slaves......"

Although Gu Yanwu's voice seemed calm, there was inevitably some excitement in his tone, destroying the country of people and plundering people as slaves, what else could they not do?

"They're doing a good job!"

Without waiting for Gu Yanwu to express his dissatisfaction, Zhu Mingzhong took the initiative to praise him.

"Otherwise, you can't deter the crumbs, well, that's good."

Noticing that Gu Yanwu seemed to be dissatisfied, Zhu Mingzhong said with a smile.

"Gu Qing, it's different from the Ming Dynasty, those natives are all people at both ends of the snake and rat, if they don't use thunder methods, how can they be afraid of the might of the Han people? Willing to return to Zhuxia? ”

Stopping Gu Yanwu, who wanted to speak, Zhu Mingzhong said.

"As for the others, although these countries are my Great Ming Sect Domain, they have also been divided into feudal states, as for the imperial court, try to ask as little as possible."

Zhu Mingzhong's words carried the meaning of beating, "cutting the domain" was the national policy of the Ming Dynasty for hundreds of years, and because of this, for hundreds of years, from local officials to the center of the imperial court, they have taken "cutting the domain" as their responsibility, and they will do everything possible to find reasons to suppress the clan, which was the case in the past and is the same now.

But the problem is that they don't know that for Zhu Mingzhong, he doesn't care about the "threat" of the clan at all, in his opinion, the clan cannot pose a threat at all, at least not for the next few hundred years.

"Your Majesty, this time the Gui State was attacked, Zhou and Qin were invited by it to help each other with the soldiers of the country, although it is said that the countries of "respecting the king and destroying each other" are screens, which is really the original intention of the imperial court, but so the countries are united, the imperial court can not be good, after all, in the long run, this is not necessarily a good thing for the imperial court. ”

Although they advocated separation, the performance of the current Nanyang countries was completely beyond Gu Yanwu's expectations, not only because they had completely departed from the traditional concept of the Ming Dynasty on many issues, but more importantly, the enterprising spirit shown by the countries made him feel afraid.

And what frightened him even more was that behind the "respect for the king", the countries were united, and the combination of the countries was very likely to endanger the Ming Dynasty, and it was even possible to make the Ming Dynasty become another Zhou room.

"How can you say it's not a good thing?"

Zhu Mingzhong shook his head and said with a smile, unlike the ministers' worries about the unity of the countries behind the "respect for the king", he was happy to see it.

"What makes me most pleased this time is that they know that they know that they are "respecting the king", and they know that they can use their own strength to gain a foothold in Nanyang, instead of relying on the Ming Dynasty for everything, so that they can really grow up, and as for the unity of the nations...... Gu Qing, it's too early to think about these now, after this battle, even if the countries have a firm foothold in Nanyang, we can also withdraw our hands and start thinking about other places, are you right......"
