Daming Super Daddy

This is really a cheat!

"Brat, don't worry!" Seeing Zhu Zhanji's sullen look, he said, "What do you think these missionaries from different countries are here for? They are just here to express their sincerity in submitting to our Daming." Yes, as the eldest son and grandson of my Zhu clan and the eldest grandson of Brother Four, even if you wipe out these guys, what will happen!"

"But, but..." Zhu Zhanji doesn't know this truth, but the impact of this matter is not very good!

"How can there be so many?" Zhu Song stretched out his left hand and patted the little guy's shoulder, pointing to the entire team exposed when the smoke subsided, and said: "Look at the things these guys are pulling, that carriage A carriage, and those tightly wrapped women, aren’t these here for me, Daming?”

Seeing the thoughtful expression on Zhu Zhanji's face, Zhu Song continued: "Also, you know that the envoys from these twenty small countries have been playing in our Ming Dynasty for nearly a month. , During this period of time, the various ministers have been paying money from the treasury for their expenses!"

When talking about this, Zhu Song stroked his chin and said, "Look at it according to uncle, the envoys from all over the world are here to express their sincerity and participate in the feast of a hundred nations. They are clearly here to enjoy it. Now let's They have a little bit of trouble, but also to beat them, don't take yourself too seriously."

When Zhu Di was just appointed as the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Zhu Song was quite resistant, but after reading the information gathered by Dongchang and Jinyiwei, Zhu Song gritted his teeth and took over the position.

It's not about taking Zhu Di's face into consideration, or expecting foreign envoys to send gold and silver treasures, what Zhu Song wants is deterrence, or making these foreign countries fear Daming, preferably for a lifetime, a few lifetimes!

Because, according to the information collected by Dongchang and Jinyiwei, these twenty Fanbang kings have not stopped since they entered the territory of Daming. Secretly contacting the high-level executives of various ministers and ministers, or bribing them with gold, silver, pearls and jade, or seducing them with women's sex and antiques... In short, there are not many good birds.

Hearing Zhu Song's words, Zhu Xuankun, Zhu Zhanji, Han Qingshan and the others all began to think silently. The expenses of more than 5000 people, even if they don't count their purchases, just the daily rations and accommodation. How much will it cost?

Besides, you can't let these guys all eat corned buns and dried radishes, right?Except for those guards and servants, the rest of the helpers are all the kings and royal families of the small countries around the Ming Dynasty. Isn't it a joke to let them eat bran and swallow vegetables?

Calculated in this way, these guys spent at least two or three million taels of silver in the past month.

What a waste, two or three million taels of silver, how many Ming people have to be fed!

"How about it, what are you worried about now?" Zhu Song had a faint smile on his face, "This time, this king is using the banner to welcome them. After all, these salutes are not dangerous, are they?"

"What Uncle Song (Wang Ye) said is very true!" This time everyone understood that King Han planned to take back all the gold and silver that Daming spent on these foreign envoys from these guys!

As the saying goes, wool comes from sheep!

……

The army of diplomatic missions from various countries, which was a little chaotic in the distance, finally stopped after a long period of turmoil.

It's just that the guards of these missions have all changed, and almost all of them have become little natives.

But the guys in the carriage, except for the big carriage in the middle, everyone is fine, even the carriage just shook a few times, the ultra-luxury carriage in the middle has fallen apart, and the twelve horses pulling the carriage are only There are four remaining horses, each of which sticks out their tongues and shakes their heads, probably because they are too tired!

And look at those kings in the carriage?They were all sitting on the ground, with a dazed face, and a dazed face... At this moment, they don't have the dignified and majestic appearance before, not to mention the disheveled face, and some kings even have a crown on their head. The crown fell to the ground.

"Who, who can tell Gu, what happened?" The western king Steins, with dusty clothes, a crooked crown on his head, and even a piece of snack on his forehead, had an angry look on his face.

Monka, the king of Ceylon, had an ugly expression on his face: "Guards, guards, what's going on?"

"Damn it, what's going on here?"

"What kind of tricks is Daming doing?"

In fact, not only Stans and Monka, but the other [-] foreign kings sitting on the ground at this moment are all going crazy. They have never encountered such a thing after being the royal family, princes and kings for so many years. , so they were furious and wanted to figure out what happened first.

"Your Highness, are you alright?"

"Hurry up, help His Royal Highness up?"

"Aren't these smart people crazy? Why do they do such a thing?"

The ultra-luxury carriage was pulled to pieces by the horses, and the surrounding guards and attendants finally reacted, and rushed over one by one, carefully helping their respective kings up.

Chapter 525 The Punching Bag

The palace, the warm pavilion.

"Zheng He, what happened outside the city? Why is there the sound of artillery fire?"

Just when the salute was fired outside the city, Zhu Di was crouching at his desk in the warm pavilion to review the memorial, but at this moment, loud noises came into the warm pavilion, like thunder.

After finding Zhu Song, Zheng He hurried back to the palace after informing him of the news of his foreign country coming to Beijing. Hearing Zhu Di's words, he said, "Long live Qi Zuo, I don't know about this, but news will come back soon!"

"Long live!" Just as he was speaking, a young eunuch came in from outside the hall and bowed to salute.

Zhu Di glanced at the little eunuch and said, "What's the matter?"

The little eunuch replied respectfully: "Long live, just now the news came from the city gate that twenty foreign envoys are about to arrive in Nanjing, and each envoy has sent people to send letters of credence. Your Highness King Han, in order to welcome all the foreign nations, Specially ordered people to go to the firearms camp to bring six salutes, and fired a total of [-] cannons to show welcome!"

"Salute? When will there be a salute in the Huoqi Battalion?" Zhu Di was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Zheng He, and said, "Zheng He, do you know?"

Zheng He frowned and said, "Long live, this firearms camp is the top priority of my Ming Dynasty, so the slaves never arranged for manpower in the firearms camp. The slaves are also not very clear about the affairs of the firearms camp."

"Oh!"

Zhu Di nodded, and then he remembered that because of the importance of the Firearms Battalion, Dongchang, Jinyiwei, and the newly established Six Gates had never arranged for manpower to enter. After all, Long Live God did not speak, and none of them dared to make their own decisions.

After being silent for a while, Zhu Di seemed to have remembered something, looked at the little eunuch dumbfounded, and said, "What did you just say? Those cannons were set off specially to welcome the envoys from various countries?"

The little eunuch nodded seriously, and said: "Yes! It's just a little bit troublesome right now. The carriages that the Fanbang kings were riding in were torn apart by the horses because the horses were frightened. The kings were not injured at all, it's just their appearance. Rather embarrassing!"

"Hahaha, this kid will find a chance for himself to vent his anger!" Zhu Di knew what was going on as soon as he rolled his eyes, and immediately burst out laughing.

"Out of anger?" Hearing Zhu Di's words, Zheng He didn't know what was going on.

On that day, when Zhu Di named Zhu Song the foreign minister, Zheng He happened to go to Dongchang, so he missed what happened in the warm pavilion.

Seeing the slight doubt on Zheng He's face, Zhu Di didn't close his grinning mouth, but sent the little eunuch away first, and then said: "Zheng He, do you feel strange?"

Zheng He knew what to say when he knew what to say, so he said directly: "Long Live Lord, has His Highness the King of Han been angry somewhere, otherwise, how could he have vented his anger on those foreign kings?"

"Where is it?" Zhu Di grinned even more, and said happily: "Of course I got angry with me. I want him to be the reception minister. Brother Song refused to agree to it. I forcibly gave it to him, and you said that with Brother Song's temper, can you lose your temper?"

"Ah?" Zheng He finally understood, and the emotional side said, "Long live, if His Royal Highness King Han goes too far, those foreign kings may have a rebellious mentality!"

"Why do you think I want Brother Song to go?" The expression on Zhu Di's face became strange, "These people, in their respective countries, are people who keep their promises, and when they come to our Daming, they can live with peace of mind. To be an obedient citizen? It's good to be able to express the meaning of submission, how can you be polite to outsiders? The reason why I let Brother Song be the reception minister is to let Brother Song frighten them and tell them who is the master!"

After all, he is the emperor of Ming Dynasty. There is really no one who can be the emperor. Zhu Yuanzhang is like this, killing countless people, and this is also the case for Zhu Di, but he found someone to take the blame. Zhu Song is responsible for singing red faces, and Zhu Di is It's the one who sings the white face.

……

"Don't touch Gu, Gu can stand up by himself!" Sparrow had a gloomy face, he swung his arms, and he fiddled with the person who was going to support him, stood up straight away, and then began to look around.

When he saw those suffering brothers and sisters, some of whom were not as good as him, his heart was immediately balanced.

The foreign missions did not suffer any loss, but the group of people sitting in the big carriage lost their share.

"This is really a great gift!" Mengka smiled wryly, and a look of surprise appeared on his face, "It seems that some people don't like us! Sigh, but what happened to those voices just now?"

All the people stood up, and all the kings were ashamed, looking really embarrassed.

"Hahaha, my kings, we really look a little... embarrassed!" Stans took over the conversation and laughed, "Look at Yigu, let's take a quick rest. If there is anything, we can talk about it later. , what do you kings think?"
