Chapter 448 Mei Yin replaced Dao Yan in Zhu Di's position
"Second brother-in-law, do you think it would be more suitable for me to choose to entrust overseas in the future?"
Zhu Di lowered his voice and looked at Mei Yin asked aloud.
He has been thinking about this for a long time.
I have been undecided about where it would be better to seal my side in the future.
Speaking of which, it is no longer a secret that my father plans to send his brothers overseas in the future.
Father had already given them a message before this.
When he heard the news, Zhu Di felt a little uncomfortable.
But I also know that it seems that the best way so far is to entrust myself and others to go overseas.
Especially later, I learned from my father that his father actually owned an extremely mysterious simulator that could see a person's future.
After knowing that he had rebelled and became emperor in the future, he had no objection to this matter.
And I think it’s a good idea for my father to make such an arrangement.
Although in the future that my father saw, he became the emperor.
But he doesn’t want this way of being an emperor.
Really speaking, he hopes that his eldest brother can live a long life.
I even hope that my eldest brother can succeed my father and become the emperor.
When your eldest brother becomes emperor, he will definitely be able to govern the Ming Dynasty very well.
I also hope that in the future, Xiongying will succeed his eldest brother as emperor.
Compared to these, the throne is not that attractive to him.
But before him, he thought so in his heart.
However, when I think about the future, due to various reasons, I will have to stay away from the Ming Dynasty and say goodbye to my mother, stepfather, emperor, and eldest brother, and other close relatives.
I still feel uncomfortable in my heart.
But it’s different now.
Now he first led the fleet and fought a fierce battle with Chen Fang's two pirates at sea.
Later he sat in Jiangnan and helped establish the Municipal Shipping Department.
I have been exposed to many things and my horizons have been broadened a lot.
And I also learned a lot about overseas countries.
As he learned more and more about overseas, he discovered that there are such vast places overseas.
It’s not all bad as I imagined.
Of course, in addition to these, more importantly, I also experienced some feelings that I had never experienced before.
That is, after leading troops to sea, you can completely make the decision.
There is no need to be cautious about many things.
Being free and unrestrained is a feeling that cannot be felt at all in the Ming Dynasty.
In Ming Dynasty, although their status is princes.
But even the eldest brother who was born into an imperial family would never think too much about it.
Very good to them all.
But they, who are younger brothers, must also pay attention to the difference between king and minister.
You cannot act recklessly on some things.
Always need to be careful and cautious.
Even so, there will still be some gossips who make irresponsible remarks and give them eye drops.
All kinds of things are annoying.
Even if they come to the fiefdom to eat in the future, it will still not work.
It’s really embarrassing. Compared with the princes of the Han Dynasty and earlier, these so-called princes have far less power.
Will be restrained from all aspects.
Really counting them, these first generation feudal kings are even better.
Later, his descendants, these people will have more restrictions.
These are also what he doesn’t want to see.
How could living like a frustrated little daughter-in-law be as satisfying as being a real prince overseas?
When you come overseas, you have the final say on many things.
You no longer have to be careful, you can govern according to your own ideas.
Seize your own territory, govern your own country, and govern according to your own ideas.
Come wherever you want, no need to be careful everywhere. Be careful everywhere.
Especially later, I learned that this idea was actually given to my father by my second brother-in-law.
I feel even more grateful.
Thanks to my brother-in-law for giving my father a good idea.
At the same time, we must also find a very good way out for these vassal kings.
With such a path, their lives will be very different in the future.
Not only his first generation of vassal kings will benefit immensely, but even their descendants will also benefit immensely!
However, there were so many places overseas that Zhu Di was suddenly spoiled for choice and didn’t know where to go in the future.
Of course, in addition to being spoiled for choice, there is another important reason, which is that he feels that he does not know enough about overseas.
It is better to ask the second brother-in-law about this matter.
Although the second brother-in-law seems to stay at home, he is busy here in Shuangshui Village all year round.
But I know many things very thoroughly.
Very insightful.
Ask your second brother-in-law about this matter. There are only advantages and no disadvantages.
And this is also Zhu Di's most important purpose in meeting Mei Yin this time.
I really want to see Mei Yin, and I really want to eat the food cooked by my brother-in-law.
However, if I want to ask about this, it is also true.
This matter is related to his vital interests.
From afar, it is even related to the interests of his own children and grandchildren.
Something as far-reaching as this definitely requires more thought.
Hearing Zhu Di ask this, Mei Yin seemed a little surprised for a moment.
I didn’t expect that Zhu Di would ask himself this question at this time.
However, while I was surprised by it, I think it makes sense after thinking about it.
According to Fourth Brother’s mind and his ambition, it is normal for him to ask this question at this time.
It would be weird if you keep pretending to be confused and don't say anything.
It doesn’t look like Fourth Brother’s style.
It would be best for the fourth brother to have such thoughts.
Then in the future, the external expansion of Chinese civilization will be greatly promoted.
Let the glory of China shine in more places.
"Fourth brother, do you have something you like in your heart?"
Mei Yin did not express his own opinion first, but first asked Zhu Di his opinion on this matter.
Zhu Di is not the kind of hypocritical person. After hearing Mei Yin's question at this time, he immediately said:
"Second brother-in-law, I'm up here, There are indeed certain considerations.
For example, I think the Japanese country is pretty good.
Next, can we destroy the Japanese country?
Then it becomes my fiefdom? "
Zhu Di seemed very excited when he said this.
It can be seen that he is really interested in this and really wants to do this.
"I want to There are two reasons here. First, the Japanese country is relatively close to our Ming Dynasty.
It will be more convenient to come back in the future.
Another reason is that through my understanding of overseas countries and the recent establishment of the Municipal Shipping Department, I discovered that the Japanese country was actually quite wealthy.
In some places, there seems to be an extraordinary amount of gold and silver.
It is better to take it down.
If you take it down and use it as a fiefdom, it will be quite good in the future. ”
Hearing Zhu Di's candid words, Mei Yin shook his head and said, "Fourth brother, I think this place is not worthy of you."
Hearing Mei Yin's words, Zhu Di was stunned for a moment.
He did not expect that his second brother-in-law would actually say such a thing.
Mei Yin means what he said.
After all, others didn’t know it, but he still knew very well that the fourth brother in front of him was the famous Yongle Emperor in history.
The achievements made are heartbreaking. The only person who successfully rebelled as a feudal king.
It’s really frustrating to go to a place that is just a tiny place.
"Second brother-in-law, there... the place there is already very big, bigger than the Chief Envoy in Peiping.
The fiefdom my father has set for me is far bigger than that of the Chief Envoy in Peiping. Get on this.”
After Zhu Di was a little surprised, he looked at Mei Yin and said.
He was still surprised that his second brother-in-law thought so highly of him.
Originally, he felt that his appetite was already huge.
He really wanted the entire Japanese country as a fiefdom.
When I got here, after talking to my second brother-in-law, I realized that my appetite was actually much smaller.
My second brother-in-law has greater expectations of me than myself.
6◇9◇书◇Bar
Moreover, he really thinks that the Japanese country is quite good.
Not only is the place large, but it is also rich in gold and silver.
There are also a lot of people.
Although the status of Japanese slaves is not high, the existing problems are relatively big.
However, if I become the king there in the future, I will definitely bring them the high culture from the Ming Dynasty.
There will also be some methods, such as destroying all their history, or making secondary adaptations based on some of their histories and myths.
Make a new history.
Let them forget their roots and let them be deeply tied to Ming Dynasty.
Become an inseparable part of your own Ming.
This is pretty good too.
How could I have imagined that my favorite idea would be rejected by my second brother-in-law.
The second brother-in-law has great confidence in himself.
“Fourth brother, you need to have a longer-term vision and a broader vision.
According to your intelligence, it is really a bit frustrating to get there.
Overkill.
It looks nice there, but actually, that’s about it.
Although there is a lot of gold and silver, gold and silver are only external things after all.
Grain output is the most important, this is fundamental.
After all, it is just an island country, with many mountains and little land, and the land is barren.
Food is not abundant.
This is a big problem.
And because it is an island country, it is easily affected by severe weather such as typhoons.
There are also many earthquakes there.
Of course, there is another reason, that is, it is too close to the Ming Dynasty after all.
Fourth brother is really still willing to live so close to Ming Dynasty? "
Mei Yin looked at Zhu Di and asked a question that pointed directly to his heart.
Zhu Di was slightly stunned by these words.
I just feel like my heart can't help but beat a little bit.
Many things seemed to be seen through by my brother-in-law at once.
My second brother-in-law really understands me
And he really doesn’t hide anything from himself.
"The second brother-in-law, now in charge of the navy, still fought a war outside, and after learning more and more things overseas.
My mind has indeed changed a lot.
Speaking of which, it doesn't feel good to be crowned king because of your own father.
It is also restricted everywhere.
Not nearly as refreshing.
It is better to conquer the world by yourself.
And...and it's too close, there are indeed many restrictions.
However, I don't know what else is good about it. "
Zhu Di actually had other ideas in his heart.
That is to go to Goryeo.
However, after his second brother-in-law treated the Japanese country as a fiefdom, After the idea was rejected, he kept silent about Li.
The Japanese country was across the sea from the Ming Dynasty, and his second brother-in-law thought it was too close.
Goryeo can border on land with its own Ming Dynasty.
In this case, my second brother-in-law will definitely look down upon her even more.
And, really, it’s not too big there.
There will definitely be many restrictions in the future.
Zhu Di said: "Second brother-in-law, what suggestions do you have on this matter?
Where do you think it’s better to go? ”
After hearing this, Mei Yin thought for a moment and called Zhu Di to go to the study.
He got a globe in his study.
He made this globe,
He was already familiar with the globe
It's just that you need to cover your ears and eyes to some extent, and it was incomplete at the beginning.
Now, some additions have been made based on some overseas situations.
Make it more complete.
“Fourth brother, this is the earth, where we live.
This is where our Ming Dynasty is.”
Mei Yin pointed to the map, which marked the territory of the Ming Dynasty in different colors.
Then he said: "This is the Japanese country, and this is Goryeo.
Fourth brother, I think you should not go north here.
Especially this way North of the line."
Mei Yin said, drawing a line.
This line is actually the 200 mm precipitation line
“There is too little precipitation there, which determines that it is only suitable for nomadic herding.
Herding is far less stable than farming.
The conditions are even more difficult.
When we come to the north, we will eventually become enemies of the Ming Dynasty. ”
"Impossible!
I will never be an enemy of the Ming Dynasty. I will always be a member of the Ming Dynasty!"
Zhu Di shook his head firmly.
“Fourth brother, these things are not what I said randomly, nor can anyone decide them, but are determined by objective conditions.
In the future, if there is a snowstorm on the grassland, What should I do if it’s too serious?
What should we do if many people are going to starve to death?
Even if you are on your side, you don’t want to invade south and seek a way to survive.
But many tribesmen have such thoughts.
From now on, Fourth Brother will restrain them and not let them do this.
But you, the leader, cannot let them eat.
Then they will naturally make some choices on their own.
It doesn’t depend on anyone’s will.
In the final analysis, it is your stomach that decides. "
Hearing what Mei Yin said, Zhu Di thought about it seriously and became a little silent for a moment.
It seemed that his second brother-in-law was involved in this matter. , that's right.
This matter is indeed not that easy to solve.
It’s not just about saying it’s okay.
After being silent for a while, Zhu Di looked at Mei Yin and said: "Second brother-in-law, where do you think is better?"
"Go to a place far away from the Ming Dynasty, a vast place with a lot to do. "
Mei Yin said, turned a little, clicked on a place on the globe and said: "I think this place is pretty good..."
