Chapter 199: Recalling the Capital (Part 2)

Zhu Youcheng waited for a lucky ship to return to his voyage at the port every day, but although there were many ships entering and leaving the port, he did not see a lucky ship belonging to the Denglai Navy. $. However, in this busy port, Zhu Youcheng did not see a tax collector wearing the Ming Dynasty's official uniform. That is, although the port's throughput was very large, it was not profitable for the country. Zhu Yuanzhang's policies when the founding of the country were lagging behind the times. The Ming Dynasty should vigorously reform and stick to the incompleteness, and the finances would definitely go bankrupt and repeat the mistakes of history.

After working on the husband's stone for two days, Zhu Youcheng finally saw a team of tall blessed boats slowly docked, and the gangway was set out, and a group of magical officers and soldiers came down from the boat. Yes, this was the blessed boat of the Denglai Navy Division.

Zhu Youcheng nodded, and the Jinyiwei rushed onto the ship immediately and controlled the lucky ship.

He took the in charge and asked, the ships were from Japan. After boarding the ship, he counted the cargo, and Zhu Youcheng was shocked to find that there was a lot of sulfur inside, and there were silver. It turned out that Japan's land was barren, with only the sulfur mines and silver mines. Therefore, after the Denglai Navy sold the goods on the ship, he felt that it was too wasteful to come back from the empty ship, so he bought these things back.

Zhu Youcheng was overjoyed. It was a surprise. The West Punishment envoy was insufficient gunpowder, so it was very troublesome to collect it from the Ministry of War. Now that he has such sufficient high-quality sulfur, he will not worry about not having gunpowder for a few years.

Zhu Youcheng had no navy, so he had to rely on veterans of the Denglai Navy. He sent people to board the boat and arrested the loyalists of Li Song and his party on the boat, and then added some sailors loyal to the Ming Dynasty. Finally, he controlled the twenty-five lucky ships in his hands. The size of these lucky ships was far beyond his imagination. With these ships, his Jinyiwei and his baggage could be placed on Juehua Island at one time.

When he returned to the station, Zhu Youcheng saw Tu Wenfu waiting for him at first sight, and he couldn't help but feel happy. The emperor was so fast that he wrote back to him so quickly. After this storm, he was a little discouraged about the task of rescuing Juehua Island. Now he is just doing his best and leaving his will. Tu Wenfu's arrival undoubtedly gave him a shot of a heart-warming injection, which strengthened his confidence. He decided to handle the matter here and immediately take a boat to Juehua Island.

Tu Wenfu sat on the chair, looking very tired. One Dongchang Actor was rubbing his back and the other was pounding his legs. Seeing Zhu Youcheng coming in, he stood up and said, "The Emperor ordered our family to come and pass the order."

Zhu Youcheng immediately knelt down, Tu Wenfu stepped forward to support him, and said, "The emperor specially ordered you not to kneel down to receive the imperial edict, just stand and listen."

Zhu Youcheng was not pretentious and stood up with the trend. Tu Wenfu launched the imperial edict and started to recite it. The imperial edict was polished by a special person. The general idea was that Zhu Youcheng's suggestions were approved by all the Emperor Tianqi. He couldn't help but be happy. Now the Denglai Naval Division would not make any mistakes, and in the future, these naval divisions could still give him a lot of help. It would be better to find an opportunity to ask the emperor to ask the Emperor to expand the Xizhen Fushi. All of them were placed in the naval division. This would harass the rear of Jiannu and recover the islands of the South China Sea. It would be even more certain.

After reciting the imperial edict, Tu Wen said, "Our family came in a hurry for 800 miles, so other officials are not so fast. It will take at least ten days and half a month."

Zhu Youcheng quickly took out a gold coin from his arms and put it into his palm in the pretext of shaking hands with him and thanking him. Tu Wenfu glanced at the gold coin and smiled into a flower. He said, "How can you be so embarrassed? You are all doing things for the emperor. This time, our family came here, in addition to telling you the emperor's handling results first, he also brought a secret order."

Zhu Youcheng stood up solemnly and prepared to listen to the secret order. He did not want the secret order to be a letter, but a letter.

Tu Wenfu handed him a sealed letter and said with a little jealousy: "Our family is not qualified to know. This secret order is sealed. The emperor said, let you see it yourself."

Zhu Youcheng took the letter and checked it briefly. It was indeed not dismantled. He took the envelope and walked to the head coach's seat, sat down, then tore open the envelope and took out the secret meaning inside. It was said that it was a secret meaning, but it was actually a letter, the handwritten letter of Emperor Tianqi. The letter was written in vernacular and was a little inconsistent with the emperor's identity. No wonder it had to be sealed. The general meaning of the letter was that his elder brother, the Emperor Tianqi himself, his sister-in-law, Empress Zhang Yan, and his goddaughter Princess Huaining missed him very much, so he told him not to go to Juehua Island and return to the capital directly.

Zhu Youcheng's hand trembled slightly with Xin. He had to go to Juehua Island, because he heard that Yuan Chonghuan refused to withdraw his troops from Ningyuan, so he knew that history would happen again.

There are 14,000 people on Juehua Island, not 1,200. In front of him, he seemed to see the soldiers and civilians on Juehua Island struggling and crying under Jiannu's butcher knife: a commoner knelt down and begged for mercy to Jiannu, Jiannu slashed him with a knife, cut off his hands and feet, and watched him cry for a long time and die; a woman was raped by Jiannu in front of her family, and then broke her chest and dug out her heart; a young child was swung up by Jiannu's beast, and his head was smashed to the wall...

If you can't leave, you must not leave. There is still food on Juehua Island, with a total of 80,000 stones of food. If you steal this food and Jiannu gets full, you can better invade the Ming Dynasty and kill the people of the Ming Dynasty.

But the emperor issued a secret order, and it was a serious crime to refuse the order. Wait, Yuan Chonghuan stayed in Ningyuan against Gao Di's order. It seemed that Emperor Tianqi not only did not blame him for not listening to his superiors' orders, but was very happy and praised him as a man. Emperor Tianqi is a passionate young man, only 21 years old this year, and he was the age of loving heroes. If he went to Juehua Island by himself, he might not be so angry. Because the emperor did not let him go to Juehua Island, it was not because he suspected him, but because he loved him. On the other hand, Zhu Youcheng had no selfish intentions, purely to save the people on the island. Of course, if he could kill hundreds of Jiannu, the emperor would be happier. However, his ideas were full and his reality was skinny. The Jinyiwei was not trained enough and he might be defeated by fighting with Jiannu.

Tu Wenfu saw that his face was gloomy and he didn't know what was written on the letter. However, he didn't dare to inquire about the contents of the letter. Since the emperor sealed the envelope, he just didn't want him to know, so he waited quietly.

When Zhu Youcheng's eyes moved away from the letter, Tu Wenfu asked, "Mr. Zhu, when will he leave?"

"Oh, tomorrow morning. Today, the Fu Ship is just here to the port and is unloading the goods. Tomorrow morning, I will take my troops on the ship and head to Juehua Island."

"Aren't you going back to the capital? The emperor asked our family to 800 miles to rush to Dengzhou to pick you up."

"Yes, after the military and civilians on Juehua Island evacuated, I will naturally return to the capital. I am tired of eating seafood from Dengzhou and want to eat roast duck from the capital. I really want to go back to the capital now, but I can't. You think, the emperor held a grand farewell ceremony in the capital to send me to Liaodong, but he didn't even get to the border of Liaodong, so he went back to the palace. The imperial court's lords were still laughing to death."

"Mr. Zhu is right. But since that's the case, why did the emperor ask our family to rush to Dengzhou for 800 miles? As we walked along, our family's bones were almost dispersed."

"The emperor probably urged me to send troops as soon as possible. You said that I should go and go back quickly. Alas, it's not that I wasted time, but the officials in Denglai were too uncooperative. But now the blessing ship has arrived, so I won't be delayed anymore."
