Chapter 1113 The real unification of the world!
For the obvious myth of "all nations come to pay tribute", Chinese dynasties in all dynasties are willing to pay any huge price, using countless time, energy, wealth and life.
To enrich this "myth" and make it "real"!
This is a huge face-saving project, and the process of creating it runs through the entire Chinese history. It is so beautiful for all nations to come to the North, but there is only one question: how good it would be if all this was really!?
Yes, it is actually fake.
From the beginning, "All nations come to the court" was a grand performance, using endless luxury and amazing waste to show the face of the Chinese empires throughout the ages, which seemed extremely powerful on the surface.
From the prosperous Sui and Tang dynasties to the Song Dynasty, which was later called the "Confucian Empire", to the Yuan Dynasty ruled by the Mongols.
Furthermore, to the Ming Dynasty when the Tartars were wiped out, this vein was endless and led to the prosperous era of Qianlong when the grand ceremony was held on New Year's Day in 1761.
Such a huge face-saving project of "all nations come to pay tribute" was passed down in this way.
-
The so-called tribute to small countries, merchants (basically all are impostors) bring some local specialties of very low value in exchange for a large amount of high-value returns in China.
Some businessmen in small countries are greedy for cheap things and even pay tribute several times a year.
Zhu Zilong did not deny that Zheng He's contribution to the voyage to the West.
However, the process is not discussed, but the result is very deceptive.
This incident was one of the most talked about by Ming fans when they mentioned the Ming Dynasty, which was that there were many vassal states in the Ming Dynasty - from Ethiopia in East Africa, to Korea, Japan, and even Turkey, they sent people to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty.
However, Zhu Zilong, who had traveled through time, only realized it when he sat on the position of emperor.
Yongle is actually the world, the biggest silly emperor who wants to be face-saving and not want to be a fool.
Regardless of the life or death of the people in China, they plunder the wealth and ointment of the people, and then send Zheng He to sea to send money to the countries that Zheng He could reach - of course, the money is not for free. You must admit that the Ming Emperor was the co-lord of the world in order to get the money, otherwise, everything will be free of negotiation.
As long as you talk, you will have money to get it?
Is there such a good thing in this world?
At first, both the black chiefs of Ethiopia and Somalia, and the indigenous people of Sri Lanka were somewhat suspicious whether they had encountered a liar.
After Zheng He gave a lot of money and things, he gradually realized that the envoy of the Ming Dynasty was not a liar. But there were indeed people in the world, such stupid people did such a stupid thing.
So, the chiefs and kings of various countries rushed to send people to the Ming Dynasty to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty, which led to the scene of the third emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
After all, it was actually caused by Emperor Yongle’s guilt.
When it comes to "usurping the throne", many people will think of Zhu Di, the Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty.
In the ancient Chinese society of "family and worldly", the emperor who was at the top of the power chain can be said to be a combination of power, wealth, and beauty. He is so powerful that he looks down on all living beings. Once the orders are issued, everyone in the world will obey.
In order to compete for the throne, there have been scenes of bloody stories of brothers killing each other and father and son killing each other in history.
However, since all the dynasties in China have long been influenced by feudal orthodox ideas. The throne has its own order of seniority and high school prescribed by etiquette and law. Those who usurped the throne are often regarded as tyranny, and social public opinion always gives more negative comments.
Although Yongle's "usurpation of the throne" did not cause a historical regression, it was a positive factor in promoting social progress. However, after all, the country was not upright, so he felt a little guilty.
From later saying that he was the son of Empress Ma, to asking Zheng He to go to the four oceans and let all nations come to the court, it seemed that they were all for the purpose of gaining recognition from the people and everyone.
However, the more countries come to the court, the harder the people's lives are, the more ruthless the Ming Dynasty plunders the people's wealth and ointment, and the more farmers starve to death.
Finally, some conscientious Ming Dynasty officials could not bear it anymore and burned the chart of Zheng He's voyage to the West to prevent the Ming Dynasty emperor from getting into trouble and sending money all over the world - although this could not stop the situation of the country coming to court (actually to cheat money), at least it was effectively prevented.

Zhu Zilong naturally would not do such a loss-making business. Those foreign merchants pretended to be messengers and used some garbage to exchange for gold, silver and treasures.
Do you think I'm a fool?
Don’t say that you are not messengers, even if you are messengers, the real nations come to pay me a favor, not me a favor!
What?
No one can do such a thing? Haha, I have a gun, are you afraid?
You don’t have any benefits to me. I will call you one day. Are you willing to destroy the country or give me benefits to the Ming Dynasty regularly?
Zheng He went to the West seven times that year, but the reason why he was not on the way was to launch a colonial country for the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Zilong understands him because his main purpose is:
First, people at that time had no vision and underdeveloped science. There was no territorial demand for foreign countries. A strong and prosperous country would invade barren lands that could not pose a threat. It would not be feasible to pay for their own money to support foreigners.
Second, look for Emperor Jianwen. (When I heard the wind, it was said that Emperor Jianwen ran overseas, organized forces and borrowed troops)
Third, at that time, Timuer assembled a large army of 1 million to prepare to attack the Ming Dynasty, and Zheng He went to the West to find allies overseas.
The so-called time, place, and people are not in harmony.
Therefore, although the Ming Dynasty's shipbuilding technology was the best in the world more than 200 years ago, its purpose was not overseas colonization.
The nature of Zheng He's multiple voyages did not have much progress, but instead consumed a lot of manpower and financial resources. The treasury could not afford it, and it was gradually abolished in the middle and late Ming Dynasty!
-
However, colonization was not suitable at that time. Zhu Zilong was now suitable for the right time, place, and people.
If you don’t start colonization now, it’s simply incompatible with nature.
If you don’t colonize, others will rob the colony. You will be in danger of face and suffer a lot!
Since colonial plans were carried out in Southeast Asia, Japan, and North Korea, this person has killed more people, and Zhu Zilong's original heart has become hardened. He could have seen some personal reputation, but now.
What is that? Can it be eaten as a meal?
I can live thousands of years, and all those who oppose this generation will die. The Han people born later will only remember my positive image under the rule and brainwashing of my brother.
After all, history is always written by the winner.
By then, thousands of years of history will be written by an emperor. Zhu Zilong said that he is not the eternal emperor and no one else agrees.
Well, at that time, there was probably only one country in the world.
"China"!
-
Putting down the last memorial in his hand, Zhu Zilong's emperor clone, Meziz, thought, what is unification for all ages? Brother's plan is the real unification for all ages.
Oh, right.
In the modern 21st century, I have to help you with anything I can do.
Even if we cannot let the 21st century New China become the only existence, we will only help it defeat Japan and the United States.
Let the Chinese nation be truly revived in modern times.
