- In the study room of the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Hongzhi and his ministers were having a small meeting. The morning meeting was becoming more and more formal, and they could no longer discuss any major national affairs.
It is in line with the old saying that important meetings have few people, and meetings with many people are not important.
The affairs of the Ming Dynasty are basically discussed and decided in the study room. As for the morning meeting, many times it is just a briefing. There are really some things that need to be discussed in the morning, so they are discussed in the morning. Most of the time, there is no What to do.
"Your Majesty, Lord Yanshan of Korea requested Ming Dynasty to send troops to help. They are retreating steadily in West Africa, losing cities and territory, and they still cannot defeat the Spanish fleet."
Zhong Zhong delivered a memorial, which was written by King Yeonsangun of Korea to Emperor Hongzhi.
Nominally speaking, the Emperor of Heaven is also the emperor of the five vassal states of Korea, Japan, Luzon, Siam, and Sulu. The kings of these countries are also the ministers of the Emperor of Heaven. Every year, they pay tribute to the Ming Empire. Those who paid tribute would have to pay homage to Ming Dynasty from time to time.
强 牺   b x x . o   牺 。 What is wrong, natural Come.
No, the war between Korea and the Spaniards to compete for the colonies in West Africa freed up Spain's strength, especially its maritime power. Korea lost cities and land in West Africa, and colonies were lost to the Spaniards again. Take back more.
There is no other way, now I can only ask Daming¡¯s father for help.
Emperor Hongzhi took the memorial and read it quickly.
"My Majesty the Ming Emperor, Li? (long), declares The Western barbarians, ignorant of education and etiquette, are trying to become enemies of our Eastern civilized world and compete for the colonies and wealth of our civilized world. Although I try my best to fight, but However, our country, North Korea, is small and weak, and will ultimately be invincible. I ask His Majesty the Emperor to send the Heavenly Master to make decisions for me and safeguard the interests and order of our Eastern world."
"You all should take a look too."
Emperor Hongzhi read it quickly, and then passed the memorial to Liu Jin, Wang Shouren, Zhu Fu, Han Wen and other ministers as usual.
Liu Jin took the memorial and looked at it very quickly.
"Good guy, this tone and tone are exactly the same as the faces of some Westerners in later generations."
"They claim to be civilized, but everyone else is barbaric. They talk about the order, interests, and civilization of the Eastern world."
After reading the memorial, Liu Jin really wanted to laugh.
It is clear that two bandits are fighting for colonies and interests in West Africa, but Mr. Yanshan can be said to be high-sounding and righteous. He describes the Spaniards as barbarians, and the Spaniards compete with them for the colonies in West Africa. This is barbarism against civilization. A challenge is a provocation to civilized order and justice.
"Your Majesty, the fight between Spain and North Korea for the colonies in West Africa is of little concern to our Ming Dynasty. From the beginning, our Ming Dynasty has maintained the principle of neutrality."
"If North Korea cannot win the fight, it is because North Korea itself has no ability. If Ming Dynasty intervenes, it would be more direct than Ming Dynasty directly snatching all these colonies."
Liu Jin¡¯s meaning is very simple, that is, to always remain neutral. The West African colonies are the last colonies left by the Ming Dynasty to other countries that can be fought for.
There is no need for the Ming Dynasty to participate. If they participate, all the colonies will be occupied. This is obviously inconsistent with the original intention.
The Ming Dynasty has occupied enough land, and there are still a large number of vassal states and colonies in West Africa. It is still necessary to leave some land for other countries to snatch and divide, so that they will not be jealous of the Ming Dynasty's colonies.
This time .com Zhang Si. In the future, if there are rising and powerful countries, they will only dare to compete with Spain, Korea, and Persia for colonies in West Africa, but they will not dare to challenge the hegemony of the Ming Empire.
Historically, after the rise of Germany, all the colonies around the world were snatched away by the old Britain and France. Therefore, Germany and several rising stars also launched the First World War, with the purpose of challenging the original colonial system and order.
"Yes, Your Majesty, what Mr. Liu said makes sense."
"There is no need for Ming to get involved in the affairs of the West African colonies."
"The forces of North Korea and Spain are actually evenly matched. It can even be said that North Korea's national strength is stronger, with a larger population and more tax revenue received every year."
"In addition, North Korea is very close to us, and its development is much better than Spain. If it cannot defeat Spain, it can only"??Much more comfortable.
In addition, with the emergence of radio communications, even if Emperor Hongzhi was not in the capital, he could still control the entire Ming Dynasty, grasp the situation of the Ming Dynasty anytime and anywhere, and command and control everything in the Ming Dynasty.
So Emperor Hongzhi wanted to go out and take a walk to see the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty and the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains of the Ming Dynasty. There was actually another layer of consideration involved.
Emperor Hongzhi is also about to be fifty years old. He knows his destiny at fifty. In ancient times, when the average life span was only more than thirty years old, it would be considered good if he could live to be more than fifty years old.
Control the big one and control the owl. Emperor Hongzhi wanted to see the mountains and rivers of the Ming Dynasty while he was still in good health, able to move, eat, and see and walk. Otherwise, after the age of fifty, his body might not be as good as before.
By then, even if you want to go around and see various places in the Ming Dynasty, I'm afraid it won't work. The ministers will not allow Emperor Hongzhi to go out because he is not in good health.
¡°And I¡¯m not in good health. I can¡¯t fully experience the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty when I go out. If I want to try the local delicacies, I probably won¡¯t have much of an appetite and won¡¯t be able to taste anything.
So if you want to go out and have a look, now is the best time.
ps: If you were an ancient emperor, would you want to walk around?
