    Beijing!

    As we enter the twelfth lunar month, heavy snow has already dyed the entire capital city white!

    Although it is freezing cold, the streets of the capital are still bustling with people. Seeing that the Chinese New Year is approaching, many people near the capital have begun to go to the capital to buy some new year goods. They also take a look at the scenery of the capital and brag about it with the folks in the countryside when they go back.  !

    In the study room of the Qianqing Palace in the Forbidden City, Zhu Youxiao was playing with four memorials. The old Duke Zhang Weixian, the first assistant of the cabinet Fang Congzhe, the second assistant Liu Yishen, and the two officers from the Military Aircraft Department Sun Chengzong and Sun Chuanting were all sitting at the bottom!

    "These four memorials were sent by Han Siwen and Hong Chengchou. Hong Chengchou said three things. One was that the West-Dutch Combined Fleet attacked Manila and was completely wiped out. The other was that the Balni Kingdom wanted to send envoys to pay tribute. This  Has the cabinet already responded to this matter?" Zhu Youxiao put the memorial on the desk, looked at Fang Congzhe and asked!

    "Your Majesty, the cabinet has asked the Ministry of Rites to reply. The envoy from the Bo Ni Kingdom should arrive in Beijing around the Chinese New Year!" Fang Congzhe leaned forward and said!

    "Hong Chengchou also said the third thing. He said that the Ming Dynasty has more and more overseas territories, and the court should make preparations in advance to prevent someone from plotting evil and making the land the king!" Zhu Youxiao's tone was a little cold when he said this, which made a few people laugh.  The minister couldn't help but tremble when he heard this!

    Since the pacification of Liaodong and the grassland, Zhu Youxiao has become more and more prestigious. Even though he has not changed his attitude towards the courtiers, the awe of the courtiers towards the young emperor has also grown day by day!

    "Your Majesty, although what Hong Chengchou said is not in line with the holy will, it is also for the sake of the court's preparation for a rainy day. Please don't blame me!" Liu Yisui stood up and saluted, trying to excuse Hong Chengchou!

    Ever since Zhu Youxiao asked Liu Yishui to draw up the list of civil servants, his intention to reuse Liu Yishui has been very obvious. Liu Yishui also knew that he would wait for another two years. When Fang Congzhe's term was up, the position of chief assistant would be  His!

    With this idea, Liu Yishui is now more diligent in doing things and takes the lead in everything. Fang Congzhe is also very cooperative and wants to help him. Therefore, Zhu Youxiao deliberately blames Hong Chengchou, but Liu Yishui is the first to blame him.  One stood up to intercede!

    "I know Hong Chengchou's thoughts, and his thoughts are also the thoughts of most people, but I don't think so!" After Zhu Youxiao said this, he picked up the two memorials of Han Siwen and said: "This is Han Siwen's memorial.  One is to report his discovery of South China, and the other is to ask the Guards Navy to form a training group for the Imperial Association Army, and use the Spanish and Dutch prisoners of war in the Battle of Manila as training to improve the Ming Navy's long-distance navigation capabilities as soon as possible  And combat effectiveness, I have already made up my mind about this. I can see my own shortcomings in victory and dare to learn from the defeated enemy. Such a broad-mindedness, such insight, and such courage can be said to be rare in the world!"

    "Everyone! Hong Chengchou was a Jinshi, and Han Siwen used to be just the general banner of the Han pro-army. The knowledge of these two people can be said to be very different, but now it seems that the knowledge of these two people is also very different, but this time  Han Siwen is in the sky, but Hong Chengchou is on the ground!" Zhu Youxiao got more and more angry as he talked, and finally he slapped the table!

    Seeing that the emperor Zhu Youxiao was angry, several ministers also stood up and saluted: "Your Majesty, please calm down!"

    Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and said: "You all sit down!"

    Several people looked at each other and could only say: "I obey the order!" Then they all sat down again!

    "I have personally written a letter to Hong Chengchou and scolded him severely. I will give him a chance. If he doesn't open up that needle-nosed petty mind again, get out of here and stop harming the Ming Dynasty outside.  Overseas territories!" Zhu Youxiao took a sip of tea and felt relieved!

    After hearing this, several ministers felt relieved. Since Zhu Youxiao could personally write a letter to scold Hong Chengchou, it means that this person is still in the heart of the emperor, and his official career will not be cut off because of this incident!

    Zhang Weixian took the opportunity and said with a smile: "His Majesty just said that Han Siwen reported that he had discovered some kind of Nanhua Continent. I wonder where this Nanhua Continent is? How big is it?"

    Thinking of this, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but smile on his face. He stood up and walked to the map, pointing to the continent below and said: "This is Nanhua Continent. When I got this map, I didn't believe in the world.  There is this place, so I asked Han Siwen and Wang Hua to look for it, and Han Siwen actually found it!"

    No wonder Zhu Youxiao was so happy. South China was Australia in later generations. It was a vast territory and rich in natural resources. It can be said to be a rare treasure. Unfortunately, Australia was occupied by the British in later generations. In this life, it finally became the territory of the Ming Dynasty!

    Several ministers here are also very familiar with Zhu Youxiao's map, and they also know a thing or two about South China, but in the past Zhu Youxiao always said that it was a legendary place, and they?I didn¡¯t take it to heart. I didn¡¯t expect that I would actually be found this time!

    Sun Chengzong looked at Nanhua Continent and said: "Your Majesty once said that this place is very vast, and there are only indigenous people who drink blood. This time the Ming Dynasty has nearly doubled the territory occupied here. It is really gratifying!"

    Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and said: "Although this place is good, it is too far away from the Ming Dynasty, and there are many poisonous insects and beasts on it. It is not easy to get enough benefits from South China Continent!"

    Fang Congzhe twisted his beard and said with a smile: "Since your majesty has asked people to find it, he must have a good idea of ??how to develop it. Please don't take the exam to be a minister again!"

    Everyone laughed when they heard this, and the atmosphere in the study relaxed!

    Zhu Youxiao didn't show off anymore and said directly: "After all, Nanhua Continent is a newly opened land. It is inappropriate to move people rashly. Therefore, I have decided that Nanhua Continent will be the Ming Dynasty's prison for exiled prisoners. The cabinet will issue a document to the whole country as soon as possible.  , send all the exiled prisoners to South China!"

    Fang Congzhe pondered for a moment and said: "Your Majesty's move can develop Nanhua Continent without disturbing the people. It is really clever. However, if the prisoner goes to Nanhua Continent, he needs someone to guard him. I don't know who will be responsible for guarding him?"

    Zhu Youxiao had obviously been thinking about this for a long time, so he said without hesitation: "I will decree that the Nanjing Fleet of the Guards be renamed as the Nanyang Fleet of the Guards, and Nanhua Continent will be used as one of the bases of the Nanyang Fleet. In addition, Han Siwen discovered Nanhua Continent.  If he has merit, he will be granted the title of Uncle Nanhua, and he will be allowed to choose a hundred miles of land in Nanhua Continent as a fief. The first batch of prisoners sent to Nanhua Continent will be Han Siwen's slaves, so let him do what he wants!"

    Several ministers thought for a moment. Although they felt that Zhu Youxiao's behavior would have the hidden danger of dividing the territory and dividing the country, they thought about it. Hong Chengchou had already been scolded for this matter, and of course they would not want to be in trouble!

    ??Furthermore, that Nanhua Continent is thousands of miles away from the mainland of the Ming Dynasty, and it is a barren mountain. Even if someone proclaims himself a king on it, it is just a mountain king, so they will not say anything!

    "One more thing!" Seeing that the matter was settled, Zhu Youxiao continued: "Now the Ming Dynasty occupies Liaodong and the grassland. Those two places are thousands of miles of fertile fields. Unfortunately, the population has been severely reduced due to the wars in recent years, so I decided to start from  Shanxi and Shaanxi moved people there, what do you think about this?"

    "Relocating people to protect their land is a precedent that has existed since ancient times, so several ministers were not surprised. However, relocating people often leads to troubles, so Fang Congzhe and Liu Yishui, as cabinet ministers, had to think carefully!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
