Chapter 617 Cognitive Disparity

"The world is divided into three parts of land and seven parts of ocean. The size of land is less than one tenth of the owners of the Ming Dynasty. Compared with the ocean, land is like a giant ship floating on the sea. The ocean connects the world together and is the eternal bond between the world. The land is limited, and the population increases infinitely because it can reproduce. Although the Ming Dynasty is very large, it has experienced the turmoil caused by natural disasters after an increase in population. Those who do not plan for the whole world are not enough to plan for the whole world. Those who want to plan for the whole world,

We should be the prophets about the world. As I know, there are many countries in Taixi, thousands of miles away, and they are fighting each other endlessly. In order to survive, these people came to boat, once raided the coast of Fujian in the Ming Dynasty, and occupied countless islands in the Ming Dynasty. These people are the most brutal people in the world. In Africa, they plundered everything and plundered human trafficking. In South America, the population of 20 million indigenous people has dropped by more than half. In North America, these people are still fighting with the indigenous people for all their lives.

Stay in the space. They are extremely vicious, their human nature is destroyed, and all the sins in the world can be found in them. I have turned these people into colonists! Colonists from Taixi Europe. Today they can burn, kill and plunder the coast of Fujian, and tomorrow they can enter the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty and do everything evil. Although Jiannu is cruel, it is slightly worse than them. I think that if the Ming Dynasty maintains the status quo, two hundred years later, the European countries in Taixi Europe will surely go deep into the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty and be the subject.

If you want to do it, you cannot control it. European countries are rich because of colonization, and they are able to study things because of wealth. They are powerful because of investigation things. They eventually come across the sea with strong ships and cannons. I do not want my descendants to encounter such things, so I plan ahead. I promote industry and commerce and advocate investigating things because of this. The purpose of sending troops overseas is to defend the enemy outside the country. The enemy comes from the sea, and I guard the important straits. I use arts to attack them so that they dare not invade the Ming Dynasty's sea border.

Now, I am entrenched in Java, going west to Sumatra, and occupies Borneo in the east. These islands are warships that never sink for the Ming Dynasty. And I and my descendants will be the helmsmen of these warships. In the future, with His Majesty's foresight and wisdom, I will definitely be able to deal with them properly. I kowtow beyond the border of thousands of miles."

This memorial is still very subtle. It is just this situation. Your Majesty should make the decision and how to locate the relationship between the two. As a minister, you can't say anything about this matter. Your Majesty should decide. But one thing is that Chen Xie made clear, that is, he doesn't want to establish a country, otherwise he would not regard himself as a minister.

Zhu Youjian understood Chen Xie's meaning. The Ming Dynasty was pitiful compared to the entire world. The continents in the world were also pitiful compared to the ocean. As Chen Xie often said before, the sea was his belonging. Chen Xie would not compete for anything in the Ming Dynasty. Now he said that. He did the same.

Zhu Youjian was very conflicted. On the one hand, he was happy to see Chen Xie's actions. On the other hand, he regarded Chen Xie as a cornerstone for his son to hold the throne in the future. If Chen Xie would not come, then whether Zhu Cixuan could sit steadily in the future is a question. After reading this memorial, Zhu Youjian was thinking about this all afternoon, how to locate the relationship between him and Chen Xie, or how to locate the relationship between Chen Xie and the Ming Dynasty. As an ordinary minister, look at it? Haha, Chen Xie agreed, but Zhu Youjian didn't dare to agree.

Can't think of a good method. Zhu Youjian and the headache. The emperor's concept of being rich in the world is deeply rooted in his heart. He cannot accept these overseas territories. He is even more worried that Chen Xie will not accept the so-called Xinghai City as a part of the Ming Dynasty. Wherever a person goes, his thoughts will certainly change. If he was Chen Xie, he might have to usurp the throne.

Zhu Youjian was puzzled, and Wang Chengen came and reported with a smile: "Long live, you are so happy. The imperial physician said that Princess Kunxing was in good health and had no problems at all. Thanks to Sihua's instructions to Liu Rushi, supervise the princess to walk for an hour every day, once in the morning and once in the evening. The miracle doctor is a miracle doctor, and he really has his own tricks."

Zhu Youjian smiled. Of course, his grandson liked it, especially those born by Zhu Ma, which was even more different. He stood up and walked two steps: "Now, the Chen family is very lively." Wang Chengen smiled and said, "Long live the wise man. There are many people who congratulate you at this time, and the Crown Prince has also gone. I was afraid that I would rush to the evil spirit, so the Queen asked someone to block the crown prince."

Zhu Youjian also felt that this was right. According to destiny, the prince was the future lord and had a very strong evil spirit. "Okay, I'll go and see it too, haha." After laughing, Zhu Youjian suddenly thought of something, laughed even happier, and his steps became lighter.

When the emperor arrived, everyone in the Chen Mansion came out to greet him and knelt all over the ground. Empress Zhou also knelt at the door. When Zhu Youjian came, he said, "I just came to see my grandson, there is no need to mobilize all the troops." Seeing Zhu Cilang beside Empress Zhou, he nodded and said, "The prince is here too. It's just right. I'll tell you something, just use Sihua's study room."

This is the emperor's behavior. He said he was to come to see his grandson and talk about his affairs first when he arrived. No one dared to say anything. The two entered Chen Xie's study. Zhu Cilang was very familiar with this place. He tasted a bite of tea and then placed it in front of the emperor. Zhu Youjian was extremely satisfied with this action and nodded with a smile. This son had nothing to say about filial piety.

"Crown Prince, I want to ask you a question. If you ascend the throne in the future, how should you face your brother-in-law Sihua?" There are many problems in this sentence, and there are many factors mixed in seemingly simple words. For example, this brother-in-law Sihua is a hidden problem. Since you have become an emperor, the relationship between the two daughters will be indifferent. For the sake of the country, there are many killing me and brothers. Isn't it a slight meaning to kill a brother-in-law?

"Father, you are in your prime, why did you come here to ask?" Zhu Cixuan was a little panicked. This question is difficult to answer. When it comes to the idea of ​​the Eastern Palace, what about the prince in the face of imperial power? Once the imperial power is threatened, there is no historical precedent for the deposed prince. With Zhu Cixuan's age and experience, how can he not panic when he was asked this question?

Zhu Youjian smiled calmly and said, "You don't have to think too much. Just to be honest, just do what you want to deal with your brother-in-law."

Seeing him panic, Zhu Youjian felt relieved, which shows that the prince was not prepared for this issue at all, which means he never thought of becoming the emperor now. If he had no reaction at all, Zhu Youjian would really be suspicious.

Zhu Cilang slowly recovered his calmness, sat upright and thought for a while before slowly saying: "Father, I think that Sihua's brother-in-law is a gift from the Ming Dynasty. The current situation of the Ming Dynasty and the future of the Ming Dynasty, he has a blueprint in his heart. When he was in Nanjing, his brother-in-law often said that the future of the Ming Dynasty is above the sea. Because the future world belongs to the sea. Although I don't understand this very well, I remember this and verify it bit by bit in the future. Now it seems that some of them have been verified. My brother-in-law is far away from the problem and rarely has any mistakes." Speaking of this, Zhu Cilang looked at Zhu Youjian, but he wanted to speak but stopped.

"Don't look at me, I understand in my heart that Sihua is destined to be a long-lived person. I dare not say that she is a hundred years old, but she is stable at seventy or eighty years old. As for me, I will be content with being able to live to sixty years old. Sihua is the pillar I plan to leave to you, inherit the past and start the future, and the overall situation of the Ming Dynasty forever will be on the prince and Sihua." Zhu Youjian did not forget what Chen Xie said. If the agricultural tax was exempted one day, no one would touch the foundation of the Ming Dynasty. Whoever came and died, no one would need to take action, and the people of the world could consciously destroy this guy.

"My son is not Adou, and my brother-in-law is not Zhuge Liang. My brother-in-law always does it first, and then let me see it and find the truth inside. He rarely talks about the truth, and always asks me to discover it by myself. My brother-in-law is now running for the Ming Dynasty in Nanyang, and Nanyang will definitely belong to a part of the Ming Dynasty in the future. I heard that there is a fire dragon car in Liaodong. My brother-in-law said that since the fire dragon car is available, the steamship is not far away. The fire dragon car can travel two thousand miles a day, and the steamship can travel thousands of miles a day. At that time, even the Nanyang thousands of miles away will only last ten days to the capital. With such a powerful tool

The court can calmly dispatch and respond quickly to what happens thousands of miles away. Instead, as now, if something happens on the frontier, it will take a month to wait for a while or two months to wait for a while, the court will respond. This is the power of investigating things! In general, my son hopes that my father will live a hundred years and live forever. If there is really one day, my son will definitely ask my brother-in-law to write a detailed report on governing the country and then verify it one by one. If the verification is not completed in his lifetime, he will tell his sons and grandchildren to verify it. The Ming Dynasty has a long history, and my sons think it is expected."

After Zhu Cixuan's words, Zhu Youjian was stunned. At this time, he realized that everyone, including himself, had no greater influence on the prince than Chen Xie. How did Chen Xie do this? Preach? The prince said just now, and he rarely preached. Then the answer was very obvious. Chen Xie was for the prince to show it, and he put everything in front of the prince with frankness, convinced him with facts, and then this effect would be achieved.

From this perspective, Zhu Youjian unconsciously reflected on himself, feeling that his understanding of Chen Xie was far less profound than that of the prince. One was to guard against Chen Xie, and the other was to leave the future plan of the Ming Dynasty to Chen Xie. What a trust this was. In contrast, he was still planning Chen Xie. The cognition between father and son was different, and the difference between the superiority and the inferiority was determined.

Looking back on every word in Chen Xie’s memorial, Zhu Youjian gradually had a formed idea in his mind.
