Nine hundred and sixtieth chapters courtiers desire
He Xianzu's words made Zhu Yicheng think about it. Although He Xianzu only mentioned this matter but did not say it in depth, his meaning was already very clear.
Since the Ming Dynasty sent a fleet to Xinming a few years ago, Xinming has developed rapidly over the years. Now Xinming has occupied nearly half of the territory of the New World. Although it has been connected with the French Empire after advancing eastward, Xinming fought a fierce battle with the French coalition forces. On the surface, the victory and defeat of this battle was not decided, but in fact, the Ming Dynasty suffered a little loss.
After all, the Ming Dynasty had an unstable foundation in Xinming, and its power expanded too quickly. Moreover, its military power or local control was not as good as the powerful French Empire, and the other side had the assistance of the Spanish coalition. If the British had not taken the opportunity to stab the French behind the French, the final result would have been that the Ming Dynasty would have retreated directly to the west and lost a large area of control.
Since this war, the New World has temporarily returned to peace. The three major forces of the Ming Dynasty, France and Britain cannot do anything to each other, thus forming a balance. They tacitly divided the territory. Now, the Ming Dynasty and France have retracted their already extended tentacles back with the west bank of the Colorado River and the western part of the Rocky Mountains, and have developed northward, which is the west coast of Canada in later generations.
It was also because of this battle that Zhu Yicheng was very angry at the Spanish Kingdom, which led to the outbreak of the Luzon War. Now, although the Ming army of the New Ming Dynasty was in peace with France, they did not have such a good temper towards Spain. They directly extended the Pacific Ocean to the south and continued to erode Spain's territory in North America, causing the Spanish who were not strong enough to complain. Especially when the news of Luzon's fall came, the Spanish Governor's Office was even more shocked. On the one hand, they urgently asked for help from the local area, and on the other hand, they asked for help from France in North America.
Although they were two countries, no matter how much they said that Spain is now France's protector, and its king is also the blood of the Bourbon dynasty. Therefore, France had to save Spain, which was gradually retreating. After France's intervention, the Ming army appropriately stopped the attack on the Spanish colonies, and then focused on the internal affairs of the New Ming Dynasty.
From the perspective of land occupation, the land occupied by Xinming now exceeds nearly half of the local area, and the population of the Ming Dynasty has exceeded one million. If the Indians who surrendered, the total population is more than ten million. In addition, some Europeans who went to the New World were also under the rule of Xinming. For the Ming Dynasty, race is not a problem. Chinese civilization has always had an advantage in assimilation of foreign civilizations. Moreover, in the Ming Dynasty, it was originally an example of Europeans becoming a native of the Ming Dynasty. Not to mention the others, just in Macau, except for the original Portuguese merchants, there are many merchants from various countries who joined the Ming Dynasty. Now these naturalized people have long regarded themselves as the people of the Ming Dynasty.
With such a large territory and the rising cities, the development of the Ming Dynasty in Xinming can be said to be extremely gratifying. In addition, with the mining and utilization of mines and resources, Xinming gradually began to get rid of the early stages of relying on the Ming Dynasty's blood transfusion and had already had its own function of making blood.
From this point of view, within a few decades, Xinming can become a fertile land, and its future is also gratifying.
"He Qing has a heart." Zhu Yicheng said calmly.
He Xianzu was suddenly overjoyed, and on the surface he still looked like he was loyal to the country.
"Who can He Qing have a solution to the Xinming policy?" Zhu Yicheng asked.
"This matter is so big, and I dare not speak out. I secretly think that the emperor can consult military opportunities to help all the ministers. In addition, I think that the overseas places of our Ming Dynasty are different from the past, and the distances between the local areas are different. The court may set up a special yamen to govern the jurisdiction to make a fixed rule. As for the others, I have not yet thought of it..."
Zhu Yicheng nodded with a gentle expression: "I know He Qing is loyal to the country. You should write a question first and leave it to the Military Affairs Office for discussion after I have read it."
"I received the order!" At this moment, He Xianzu felt as happy as eating honey! Not to mention how much happiness he was, when he left the Yangxin Palace, his whole body walked with the wind.
After He Xianzu left, Zhu Yicheng smiled, and this smile was naturally about what He Xianzu just mentioned.
If you want to talk about He Xianzu, he was trapped in Hangzhou and had no choice but to join the Ming Dynasty. During the Qing Dynasty, He Xianzu had a great ability to be an official. He relied on his franchise to get the position of governor, and then he was temporarily appointed as a governor. He was considered a rank of chief officials.
But in fact, after the Qing Dynasty, He Xianzu threw away Zhejiang so quickly, but it was one of the main reasons. This person was very conscious of practical matters in terms of his lack of character. After winning over, Zhu Yicheng gave him the position of minister, but he did not give him any practical rights. In order to win the trust of Zhu Yicheng, He Xianzu spent a lot of effort and gradually fell into Zhu Yicheng's eyes.
In the court, He Xianzu's reputation was different. Many people believed that He Xianzu was good at changing his mind and flattering, and was not considered a minister. However, in Zhu Yicheng's view, although He Xianzu had all kinds of problems, he was an extremely smart person, because if he was not a smart person, he would not have occupied a high position in the Qing Dynasty, let alone such a senior official.
People always have their own abilities. For example, Liao Huanzhi was old and steadfast, Zhu Yicheng used it for stability. Dong Dashan's army was very prestige and loyal to himself, Zhu Yicheng used it for loyalty. Shi Yizhi was straightforward and not upright, Zhu Yicheng used it for straightforward. Wang Fan was good at financial management and management, Zhu Yicheng used it for rationality. Wang Dong was brave in fighting, Zhu Yicheng used it for courage. Zeng Yishu was outstanding in talent, and Zhu Yicheng used it for talent...
These ministers each have their own characteristics, and He Xianzu was no exception. Therefore, Zhu Yicheng made every effort to send him to Ryukyu. He did not disappoint the opportunity given by Zhu Yicheng, which made Ryukyu eventually return to the Ming Dynasty, which gave him the opportunity to enter the military plane and walk.
At present, He Xianzu raised questions about the new Ming government, which also showed his vision. As for his purpose, in addition to showing his abilities in front of Zhu Yicheng, He Xianzu also has his own little abacus.
Zhu Yicheng naturally understood this point. Especially the suggestion that He Xianzu finally proposed to establish a new yamen to unified jurisdiction over overseas places was enough to show He Xianzu's ambitions. According to his opinion, as long as this yamen is established, He Xianzu, who made the suggestion, is very likely to become an official in charge of the yamen.
