Chapter 473 We are the Central Country
"His Majesty."
"Sister Yan, you were pregnant just now, why haven't you gone to rest yet?"
Seeing Zhang Yan walking into the imperial study room with a tray, Qin Yu hurriedly got up to meet her, took her to the desk and sat down together.
"Your Majesty, the state affairs are complicated, why do you need to hurry up? The future is long and you will slowly innovate and develop. Such hard work day and night will make you exhausted, but what should you do?"
Zhang Yan said with some distress, and leaned forward and took the ginseng soup placed on the tray on the table.
When Qin Yu was not doing his job properly and threw all the state affairs to her and the State Council, she was worried that Qin Yu would become a foolish monarch. Now, seeing him working so hard and worried that he would be exhausted, she felt really contradictory.
"Hey, isn't this time immemorial? Business development does require long-term planning and adjustment, but taking this opportunity to put on the airs so that all businessmen in the world can see my determination and courage to develop business."
Qin Yu sighed helplessly. As the saying goes, "Don't destroy, no establishment." This time, the relationship between Jiangnan's wealth and the official and businessmen was completely broken, which was a great opportunity for reform.
As soon as it was delayed for a long time, those businesses were in panic all day long. Not to mention expanding their business or developing business, they might collude with foreign enemies to develop other ideas.
Secondly, he wanted to deal with these things as soon as possible, then go to Shanghai and Rocket Research Institute to check out, and finally go to the five major legions to inspect and prepare for the next Northern Expedition.
At this moment, he finally realized the hard work of Chongzhen, and even became too lazy to make trouble. After unifying the world, he would do it casually and create a so-called prosperous era. Then he would enjoy his happiness every day and play in a mini-dress.
As for whether people will die in the future, there is no saying that if I die, will I care about the flood?
But whenever Qin Yu thought of the historical sufferings in modern China, he had to give up this negative idea of enjoying happiness because he was still young and restrained. It would be too late to enjoy happiness for another 20 years.
What's more, after the world is unified, he doesn't need to work so hard.
Zhang Yan also knew the grand blueprint in Qin Yu's heart. She sighed in her heart, and did not persuade her anymore. She gently scooped up a spoonful of soup and handed it to his mouth.
However, I regretted that I only wanted the prince, so I couldn't share the burden with him now when I was pregnant.
"By the way, Your Majesty, the two foreign envoys have been here for more than a month. They have come from thousands of miles to pay homage. They are the first envoys to pay tribute after the founding of the Great Qin Kingdom. Have you taken the time to summon him?
Also, Lu Xiangsheng's injuries have recovered long ago and is still under house arrest in Taihu County. Now it is the time to hire people. If he can take them under His Majesty's command, it will be a great help."
"It's a good thing that you reminded me, otherwise I would have forgotten that guy was still locked in Taihu Lake."
Qin Yu slapped his forehead, and he really forgot about Lu Xiangsheng, and then said, "Let me do this, take him to Nanjing first, and then send some acquaintances to persuade him to surrender. It would be best if he was willing to surrender. If he continued to be stubborn, then keep it closed."
Zhang Yan was relieved to see that he did not think of killing Lu Xiangsheng. After all, Lu Xiangsheng's reputation in the minds of the people in Jiangnan was not comparable to Zhou Yanru and Qian Qianyi. It can be seen that he did not mention the two red-haired ghosts and looked at him in confusion.
"Haha, Sister Yan, those two red-haired ghosts are not here to pay tribute, but to discuss cooperation with Zheng Zhilong and business matters. They will not be our vassal state. This is the memorial of Dingguo, you can see!"
Qin Yu chuckled, then started rummaging on the desk, and it took a long time to find the booklet and hand it to her.
Zhang Yan took it curiously and started to look at it. After reading it, she said in surprise: "This... this Dutch Kingdom is so powerful?"
"Haha, that's not a big deal, Sister Yan, the territory of the Netherlands is probably as big as Songjiang Prefecture, with a population of one million. In front of our Daqin, they are a country of Yelang. However, their navigation technology and number of ships cannot be ignored, otherwise they would not have come to our China from thousands of miles away."
Qin Yu couldn't help laughing at first, then cursed and explained it to her, but in the end, his face became ugly and said: "And this Dutch wolf ambition has always wanted to invade the coast of China since the Wanli period. He has often disturbed the people and merchant ships along the coast for more than ten years. Now he has occupied Dongfan Island and wants to take it for himself. It is ten times more hateful than the Portuguese and the Spaniards. Even if he wants to trade in the future, he will first expel him from Southeast Asia and get hurt."
"Oh? There's something like this?"
"It's unreasonable. Such a small country dares to talk nonsense. Not only do they deceive me into lie to the general of the country and pretend to be a tribute envoy, but they also want to invade my China. They are simply ignorant of life and death. If they were not far away, they would have to attack him and let him know the majesty of my central country."
Zhang Yan was stunned at first, then she blushed and said angrily.
If the Netherlands is as small as Qin Yu said, then it would not even be qualified to be a foreign country for the Qin Dynasty. If they come to pay tribute honestly and see their sincerity, they could also enthrone it. But now they not only deceive and deceive, but also have also disturbed the merchant ships of the people along the coast, then it would be unforgivable.
Seeing that she reacted like this, Qin Yu was a little surprised and said something to attack him. He immediately realized that it was the late Ming Dynasty, not the late Qing Dynasty.
I'm afraid even an ordinary citizen believes from the bottom of his heart that except for China, other countries are small foreign countries and barbarians, and there is only tribute in subconsciously, and cooperation and trade does not exist, because they are not qualified, ordinary people think like this, let alone the queen of Zhang Yan, the two dynasties.
"Let them fight with the Zheng family for a while first. After my warship is built, they will be able to see what the majesty of the Central Kingdom is."
Qin Yu waved his hand and said that cooperation was impossible, and business was not possible for the time being. However, in order to restrain the Zheng family and gain some time, there is no need to rush to turn against each other.
After all, if there is no restraint from the Dutch, Fujian and Zhejiang will probably become the back garden of the Zheng family's fleet in a short period of time. The 100,000 troops will be exhausted from defending and putting out fires at that time, so don't mention attacking Guangdong.
Although the arrival of the Dutch made Qin Yu feel a little urgency, even if he was anxious, he had to settle the domestic affairs and then turn his attention to the sea.
Qin Yu had expected Zheng Zhilong to retreat to Taiwan, and this was inevitable.
However, thinking of Sun Kewang and Liu Wenxiu, who are now entrenched in Guangdong and Guangxi, Qin Yu decided to transfer Li Dingguo and Qin Shuang to each other and let Li Dingguo go to Nanyang to prevent the King of Rebellion, and at the same time, the external departments will be established.
