Chapter 2306

"I see."

In the morning, during breakfast, Zhu Zhanji listened to Yu Jia's report.

Then he dressed up and went to the front.

Today is just a small court meeting. There are not many people.

"Your Majesty, please send someone to the south to inquire about the Navy's going to sea."

A minister's suggestion of leaving the class immediately attracted everyone's agreement.

"Your Majesty, I'm worried that the Taixi people are really bold and come out to fight against Daming, but xinghebo left a lot of warships when he set out. I'm afraid they underestimated the enemy!"

"According to the calculation of time, Xinghe Bo should have passed the wood bone at the moment. He may have arrived at alligator Bay. If there is a war there, it will be bad..."

Almost all the officials in the hall showed fear, not that they were timid, but that they were ignorant.

They are ignorant of the sea, so they are afraid.

But they knew that once they were defeated at sea, it would almost be the end of the whole army.

The fleet that has lost supplies is similar to the wandering ghosts. Even if some ships and manpower come back, it will only bring depression.

In the Three Kingdoms of Taixi, meat fan Hari, the enemy of Daming did not decrease, but increased.

Why?

If it had been in the past, some people would have said that it was the result of militarism.

But now Daming's economy is booming. At the end and beginning of each year, Xia Yuanji reads the budget and settlement with a straight face. The irrecoverable complacency makes people know that Daming's Day is very good and very good.

Daming is not poor. As for the use of troops, under their supervision, Daming never used troops at will.

Therefore, the accusation of militarism is not right at all. Compared with Hongwu year and Yongle year, the number and scale of troops in the Ming Dynasty are very small and the cost is very low.

Take the Navy's voyage to sea as an example. It was originally a scheduled action - to comfort all the way, send envoys from all countries back to China and trade.

Zhu Zhanji naturally knows this. He said, "it has been a custom for many years for the navy to send envoys from all countries back to the country and trade with all countries. Hong Bao also explained when he came back from Taixi last time. I don't think he will be misunderstood."

The emperor put aside this worry in a word, but the ministers heard the meaning.

……

"Your Majesty means that if they really misunderstand..."

Jin Youzi said angrily, "I think they will probably misunderstand. Somehow, after seeing the Three Kingdoms missions, I feel that Daming seems to be watched by tigers and wolves."

On their way back to the duty room, several people walked back and forth, and no one dared to approach.

"Isn't the Frank mission back? I don't think they will be so stupid."

However, from the perspective of interests, Yang Shiqi felt that the Taixi people would not go to war with Daming foolishly.

Yang Pu walked behind him and said, "Lord Yang, the warla and Tatar in those years were not big, but they also dared to provoke Daming. Such things do not depend on national strength, but on ferocity."

Yang Rong, who walked in the front, said: "yes, it's just to see the ferocity. The grassland people used to be fierce, so they always harass the side wall. And the Thai people... Hong Bao said that they were wild and naturally refused to hibernate."

Yang Shiqi also said: "after years of internal struggle, Taixi can raise brave people, which can not be underestimated!"

Jin Youzi sighed slightly and said, "so your majesty sent Xinghe Bo to master the scale, whether to fight or not, how to fight, and what to do after fighting... These are not what generals can do, whether Hong Bao or Fu Xian are not qualified!"

"What if he wins?"

Jin Youzi suddenly asked in a low voice.

The front is the duty room. As soon as Yang Rong's footsteps stagnated, he turned back and said, "Xinghe Bo has said before that he will only be Xinghe Bo of Daming in this life."

"It belongs to Emperor Wen."

Jin Youzi muttered. Yang Rong frowned and said, "he doesn't solicit military power. He has a bad relationship with Wu Xun. His relationship with civil servants and scholars is like water and fire. Who believes in rebellion?"

Jin Youzi said bitterly, "but he is making great achievements. What will your majesty do with him?"

"What if you lose?"

Yang Pu put forward another possibility: "after all, he is not familiar with water warfare. What if he is defeated?"

Jin Youzi found that he had never thought that Fang Xing would fail. He patted his forehead angrily and said, "failed? Failed... At least become white. Maybe it's Qiu Fu's second."

Qiu Fu was a meritorious hero in Jingnan. He was juxtaposed with Zhang Fu's father Zhang Yu as the double wall of the king of Yan at that time.

But it was such a successful Duke who died after the defeat of the northern expedition. His Duke was deprived and his family was exiled to Hainan.

Fang Xing

Jin Youzi suddenly smiled and said, "the little uncle of Xinghe's family..."

The faces of several assistant political scholars remained unchanged. Some sighed and some gloated.

……

Qin Lou.

After learning the name of the restaurant for the first time, Zhang Shuhui wished she could bring someone to smash it and burn it.

But then it didn't work.

At the command of the king of Han Dynasty, the Qinlou reopened, as if he had just drunk too much when he smashed the lobby last time.

Since then, there will be one more guest in the lobby or the second floor of Qinlou every noon.

Potato is very tangled into the lobby. The shopkeeper who has long estimated the time greeted him with a flattering face and said, "little uncle, where are you eating today?"

The two men behind Tudou said, "Your Highness said, I'm in the lobby today."

The shopkeeper didn't wait for Tudou's opinion, so he turned back and shouted, "prepare a place for my uncle."

The two guys scrambled over and whispered to the guests at the middle table. The table looked at the potatoes and moved to the side with a smile.

It took no effort to clean the table. After the potatoes were seated, the tea came. The shopkeeper personally sent it.

"Three dishes and one soup can't be eaten and wasted."

Potato always keeps in mind his father's teaching: no matter how rich, no matter how much food, you can't waste it. Waste doesn't make you happy and proud. It doesn't make others think you are noble. It will only make you despise what supports you.

The shopkeeper said clearly: "I know. Today there are fresh chicken, duck, beef and mutton, little uncle..."

The potato said casually, "chicken and beef, vegetables."

The shopkeeper arranged for Tudou to sit down in person, but the two big men went outside the door and left him alone.

There are several tables in the lobby. At the moment, they are full. Even the private room on the second floor is crowded, but the shopkeeper insists on leaving a private room for potatoes.

As for the indescribable third floor, it is said that only one room is available at the moment.

And that empty room is also a hidden rule. It is empty every day.

When the dishes come up, a plate of fried beef and a plate of spicy chicken, plus a plate of vegetables. As for soup, it is a small bowl of vegetable egg soup.

As the eldest young master of the Fang family, it's really shabby to go out for dinner.

But Tudou is very satisfied. Now he has to practice equestrian every day. By the way, he has to practice his ability to shoot on horseback, which consumes a lot.

Beef and chicken have low fat content, which Fang said before waking up, so potatoes need these two kinds of meat every time to supplement the consumption of the body.

The children of the Fang family always know more than others.

Therefore, the three brothers of Tudou regarded their father as heaven and man since childhood. When they grew up, they felt that their father was not simple.

At this time, a man who had been standing in the corner came and asked for dishes and chopsticks in full view of the public. Then he tasted each dish, aftertasted it carefully for a long time, and said, "great young master, good."

Potato nodded and said, "it's hard for you. Go back and thank my aunt for me."

The man bowed away.

This is the cook of Shenxianju. His taste is surprisingly sharp. Therefore, after Zhu gaoxu asked Tudou to come here for lunch every day, Zhang Shuhui, who was worried that he would be plotted against, asked Mo Chou, and then Mo Chou sent this cook.
