As soon as Zhu Di's decree was released, many civil officials still didn't understand it.

In their eyes, Peiping is not important at all, and there is no need to make a big move to fight against some surrounding bandits who cannot get on the surface.

To eliminate these bandits, all local governments need to send troops to combat the bandits.

The reason for this arrangement is to gilt Zhu Gaoxu and delay Zhu Gaoxu's time in his career.

Perhaps because Qin Feng's performance was OK, although this time it was mainly because his goods were robbed, and he went to Zhigu to find his goods as a breakthrough, none of the civil officials accused him.

The next day, when Zhu Gaoxu and Qin Feng met at the city gate, they were like eggplant made from frost, and they were completely gone without the excitement they had yesterday.

"What's wrong with Your Highness? I suddenly didn't want to take on His Majesty's job after sleeping all night?"

After Qin Feng came out of the palace yesterday, he went to Feiteng Industrial for a walk, and he stayed at home and had no idea about the comments of civil officials outside.

Zhu Gaoxu became like this bird. He could not guess other reasons except that he was because Zhu Gaoxu changed his mind and was unwilling to go.

Zhu Gaoxu immediately became even more bitter and resentful, and there was a little resentment on his face. He complained unhappily: "Those guys actually said that my father asked me to go to Zhigu to gilt for me. Do I still use gilt? Even if I don't do gilt, it's much better than the fat man. Some people say that I went to Zhigu because I didn't want to go to Yunnan to be a vassal, and deliberately delayed time, which made me angry. What I did was wrong in the eyes of those people. The fat man was hypocritical and cunning, but the guys insisted on following the lead. They were afraid they were not good or bad, right?"

Birds of feathers gather together, and Zhu Gaochi's style of conduct is exactly the same as that of civil officials. Of course, those civil officials will support Zhu Gaochi.

Zhu Gaoxu was straightforward and careless, but he didn't look like he expected a monarch. Only those civil officials could support him would have a ghost.

Qin Feng smiled and ignored Zhu Gaoxu's complaints, and asked only: "How can your highness know these complaints about the civil officials?"

These people will definitely not say bad things about Zhu Gaoxu in front of Zhu Gaoxu, and Zhu Gaoxu must have special channels.

After knowing this channel, it may be useful to Zhigu.

Zhu Gaoxu did not hide it, and said directly: "It was Chen Ying who told me. He also said that these guys said that you might be able to get the goods back without using military force. I am afraid that it will cause a lot of losses if I participate. Some guys said that the father actually used you for me, saying that you are a loyal and kind person. Even if you unreasonable requests from the father, you will not say a word. What kind of ecstasy medicine do you give those guys? How can you be more popular among them than the fat guy?"

Ah, this...

His image in the circle of civil officials is so tall? Even if he doesn't need to explain his issues, he can develop in a good direction?

He also said that Zhu Di was robbed and sent Zhu Gaoxu out by using his goods. Those gossiped civil officials would definitely think that he had bewitched Zhu Di and attributed him to treacherous officials.

Unexpectedly, this can still be done.

Qin Feng smiled and said embarrassedly: "I can't guess it. I am always with Your Highness, and I am the minister I know first. Your Highness knows what I did or not. Your Highness is also clear. I don't know what I did."

He really couldn't figure out what he had done to buy the accounts of those civil officials.

Logically speaking, the things he made into science were contrary to the things he learned from civil officials, and those civil officials would be even more opposed to him.

Fortunately, Zhu Gaoxu no longer studied it in depth, and waved his hand and said: "Anyway, I can't pee in the same pot with those guys. They can think whatever they like. I just need to do what I like."

Zhu Gaoxu is not the opponent of those civil officials. If he had to fight against those civil officials, he would have to knock himself to his head and blood.

"That's right, your highness, let's leave now?"

Zhu Gaoxu didn't delve into it, so Qin Feng didn't need to explain too much.

He himself couldn't figure out where the civil officials' favor for him came from, and how could he explain it to Zhu Gaoxu.

That guy Chen Ying told Zhu Gaoxu this time. I don’t know if it was just to flatter Zhu Gaoxu or if he had other ideas.

If it is to frame him, it would be too vicious.

Before he set out, Zhu Gaoxu received two completely different comments from the civil ministers about Zhu Gaoxu and him. He was bound to have a knot in his heart and would also doubt that he had reached a shameful deal with the civil ministers.

Under such circumstances, how can the two of them work together to solve the problem of Zhigu?

If the bandits near Zhigu cannot be eliminated, it means that the implementation of the order is unfavorable. At that time, Feiteng Industrial's goods will not only not be able to be retrieved, but will also be held accountable by Zhu Di.

Zhu Gaoxu is Zhu Di's son, and even if he is held accountable, he will be the first to be blamed.

Fortunately, Zhu Gaoxu is not a petty person, so he doesn't know what he thinks, at least he has not been affected by Chen Ying's words on the surface.

However, based on his understanding over the years, Zhu Gaoxu should not be the one who is behind the scenes. He is not affected on the surface, and he should not have any effect in his heart.

Zhu Gaoxu turned over and followed Qin Feng.

Chen Ying is currently a trustworthy person from Zhu Gaoxu. If he says bad things about Chen Ying at this time, it will really affect his relationship with Zhu Gaoxu.

What's more, his current identity as an imperial envoy is still affiliated with the Censorate. He said bad things about Chen Ying. Even if Chen Ying stumbling on him, others would only be responsible for the conflict between the two sides.

He showed a little weaker, and Chen Ying was stumbling, so all the mistakes would be borne by him.

In about half an hour, the group arrived at the ferry.

After that, they will go north from Hailu to Zhigu.

The sea route has more uncertain factors than the canal transport and more dangers, but the speed is much faster than the sea route.

In the Ming Dynasty, due to the rampant Japanese pirates, it was also because the water transportation was related to the interests of each family. It once abandoned the sea route.

Giving up the sea route is actually equivalent to giving up the opportunity to become stronger. In the future, some Gentiles have relied on the ocean.

Da Ming clearly had this opportunity, but he insisted on giving up.

He has been traveling here since he was traveling, and he will definitely not let this possibility happen.

"What do you think?"

Qin Feng held it on the railing and looked into the distance. Zhu Gaoxu walked over with a pot of wine.

"Your Highness said what's there on the sea?"

This made Zhu Gaoxu yearn for the sea, and the Ming Dynasty became more likely to become the overlord of the sea.

Zhu Gaoxu poured two bowls of wine and replied: "Luzon, the Japanese pirates all came from the sea. What else is there except for some barbarian countries?"

This kind of self-proclaimed behavior of sitting in the sky is really unsatisfactory.

Qin Feng picked up the wine bowl and took a sip and said, "No one has enough gold and no one is perfect. In such a vast sea, even if there is no country that is stronger than the Ming Dynasty, will there be no more invented materials, more advanced technologies than the Ming Dynasty, and there are grain crops that the Ming Dynasty does not have?"

Zhu Gaoxu didn't believe this.

"Is there any? If so, hasn't anyone seen it for so long?"

The thoughts of the Supreme Kingdom of the Celestial Empire are deeply rooted, and it is not easy to completely reverse them.

Since the 1840s, there have been many unequal treaties and losses in the future, and finally realized their shortcomings and began to learn from the strengths of the barbarians to control the barbarians.

Qin Feng smiled slightly and said, "I haven't seen it before, but it doesn't mean I haven't seen it. When someone starts to go down the sea and take advantage of the advantages of all countries, by the time the Ming Dynasty really sees it, the Ming Dynasty may not have taken action, and it will be slaughtered."

This is a very realistic question, but it is OK to talk to Zhu Gaoxu.

If used as a debate, there will still be many people who seek various reasons to refute it.

Some people don’t want to move their own comfort zone, while others involve their own personal interests.

Anyway, no matter what policy, don’t think it will go smoothly, and there will always be those who oppose it.

"Do you don't know anything?" Zhu Gaoxu asked.

Judging from his understanding of Qin Feng, Qin Feng would not say anything without a clear understanding of it.

Qin Feng smiled slightly and said, "I do know something, but your highness can imagine that my clan has a long history and has developed to this day. Not all things were invented and discovered by us. The most significant ones are for now, such as all the arithmetic numbers in science, which are created by the great cannibals, and Buddhism. These are all foreign products. In addition, there are some crops, many of which are from the Western Regions. Since there are things that I do not have in my local area, there must be something overseas."

Only when you are curious can you have the intention to explore.

Zhu Gaoxu held the wine glass and remained silent.

"If we want to find these things, our current sea boats are afraid that they won't work?"

Since I asked this, it means that Zhu Gaoxu was still moved.

Qin Feng still smiled and replied, "I'm afraid it won't work. The storm on the sea is very strong. Even if you only walk from the sea to the Ming Dynasty, there will be dangers from time to time, let alone to resist it from unknown to the sea. The ship must be solid enough to withstand the wind and waves, and also have to install artillery to deal with the sudden time. Of course, Science is working on a telescope, and this thing must be added, so that you can discover the situation at sea in advance and respond earlier.

Of course, even if you really want to go out to sea, you still have to communicate as the essence and cannot rob it. Otherwise, once overseas countries unite to deal with the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty may not be an opponent."

If you go out to grab it in Zhu Gaoxu's style, you will get a discount sooner or later.

Now I just think about it. It's still early to go. Zhu Gaoxu didn't argue with Qin Feng's opinion and did not argue too much with Qin Feng.

But, he asked, "The overseas region is vaster than that of the Ming Dynasty?"

This can still be guaranteed.

Qin Feng replied: "Of course, after Your Majesty inherited the throne, how many envoys came to pay tribute? These countries may not be able to compare with the Ming Dynasty alone, but they must be greater than the Ming Dynasty. What's more, the Ming Dynasty is only part of it. If the overseas countries are added together, it will be too vast than the Ming Dynasty."

After the words came to an end, Zhu Gaoxu smiled without saying a word.

"Your Highness has any plans to go to sea?" Qin Feng asked.

Zhu Gaoxu replied with a smile: "If this is the case, going to overseas countries would be much more free than being in the Ming Dynasty, right?"
