From this point of view, it is actually not an exaggeration to say that this is a humiliation. If a local official from North Korea came to say that he would surrender to the Ming Dynasty, is this a slap in the face? I want you to surrender? What are you?

Zhu Houzhao thought about this layer and immediately slapped the table and angrily scolded: "Fortunately I called you to come, otherwise I would almost let the Honglu Temple start to contact them. If the letter of nationality was exchanged, wouldn't it be a joke? It's ridiculous." He slapped the table hard and then said: "I want to expel their envoy immediately and come!"

Zhu Houzhao just shouted, and someone came in carefully outside. It was Liu Jin who had been outside.

Liu Jin has been a reminder these days, and he has become particularly cautious in his work. Whenever he hears Ye Chunqiu entering the palace, he immediately comes from the Sili Supervisor and stands quietly outside waiting, fearing that Ye Chunqiu will shoot him in the back.

At this time, he quickly walked to Zhu Houzhao and gasped and said, "What are your instructions?"

Zhu Houzhao said coldly: "Give me a note to the cabinet and immediately expel the Franchise man. All the Franchise mans will be expelled. Don't ask the reason, do you know?"

The real reason must be hidden, after all, it sounds very bad when it is spread.

Liu Jin looked at Ye Chunqiu very cautiously, but nodded respectfully and said, "I'll go now."

Ye Chunqiu had no objection to expel the Franji people. After all, the exchange between China and the West is essentially a technical approach to complement the shortcomings. Ye Chunqiu has a bright mind and a research institute underneath. To be arrogant, they do not even have the qualifications to communicate with themselves.

As for the so-called trade, I have no interest in it for the time being. Ye Chunqiu has never had a good impression of these colonists. When these people arrived at the place, they began to plunder and do everything they could. The reason why the Ming Dynasty did not suffer the harm from these people was just because the Ming Dynasty is still strong now. If it was weak at this time, God knows what would happen.

Zhu Houzhao was still angry and couldn't help but curse again: "Franjiren, it's really ridiculous, a little Ningbo prefect..."

Uh... Ye Chunqiu suddenly felt that he had made his hometown black, so he had to quickly correct it: "Your Majesty, it is actually the Governor of Malacca."

Zhu Houzhao said angrily: "No matter who he is, huh, if it weren't for the mountains and rivers far away, I must teach them a lesson."

Speaking of this, Zhu Houzhao remembered something again, took a sip of tea, and said, "By the way, I have heard a lot of criticism now."

Seeing that Zhu Houzhao's face looked a little bad, and seemed to be related to him, Ye Chunqiu said, "I don't know what criticism is?"

Zhu Houzhao said: "Many people say that you spend too much, and many people in the court are jealous. They only train a thousand soldiers with more than 400,000 silver patterns. Although it is the money of Zhenguo Mansion itself, many people are dissatisfied."

Ye Chunqiu knew very well that those who caused these criticisms were probably not a group of good people, but most of them were some shareholders.

Their mood is understandable. If they share 400,000 taels of silver, it would be a considerable amount of real money. Now it would be fine, and it would be all hit on the head of the new army in the country, which would be like throwing it directly into the water!

In the past, everyone only knew that the new army of Zhenguo consumed a lot, but in fact they didn't pay much attention to it. They just regarded it as an interesting news. But now it is different. Now, when the accounts are published, they see the real number much more than they imagined, and it is closely related to the interests of many shareholders. Many people know that they owe Ye Chunqiu's favor, but this does not mean that they will not make a few complaints. But they can't say these complaints themselves, so they naturally have to say them out of others. It is precisely because of this that it is obviously an internal matter of Zhenguo Mansion, but it turns out to be brewing in the court.

Zhu Houzhao looked at Ye Chunqiu's frowning brows, then smiled and said, "Of course, I'm just talking to you casually. But when I was talking a few days ago, there were a few Hanlins talking nonsense. Of course, I would not listen to them and ignored them. Let me tell you today that it's not that you want you to obey their words, but if someone says something, don't be angry. I'm here to remind you."

Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but smile, nodded and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Zhu Houzhao patted Ye Chunqiu on the shoulder and said, "Anyway, just do your best to do whatever you want. Don't think that I am the emperor, but people usually sarcastically, I don't care, it's just a little annoying."

Ye Chunqiu smiled and said, "I don't care about these gossips. My mother has a bad background. I have been used to it since I was a child. When it comes to being thick-skinned, Your Majesty should be inferior to my brother."

"Is that true?" Zhu Houzhao became competitive and said domineeringly: "I dare not say anything else. My face should be more reasonable than you. Come on, let's compare."

Compare yarn.

Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but complain in his heart that he had never seen such an exaggerated person.

Looking at Ye Chunqiu's tense face again, Zhu Houzhao laughed and said, "Look, you really lost. If I want to compete with you, you will remain silent. Doesn't it mean that you are still a little thin? Don't you compare this kind of thing with me in the future. Humph, what do you think of your mother and I usually say to me? I am comparable to the city wall of Fengyang, Zhongdu."

Fearing that Ye Chunqiu didn't understand it very much, Zhu Houzhao continued exaggeratedly: "This Fengyang city wall was built during the reign of Emperor Taizu, and it is more than twice as thick as the ordinary city wall."

After a haha, Zhu Houzhao continued with a smile, "Okay, I won't joke like this with you." He sat on the sofa in the warm chalet, with his legs raised, showing a little lazy, and said, "Since you become the Duke of the State, our monarch and ministers have fewer opportunities to meet. It's boring to be alone, but what can I do? I am the prisoner in the Forbidden City. Sometimes I really envy you and can let go and do what I want. If I were you, how great would it be."

His sighing felt quite like a full man was not aware of hungry man.

Ye Chunqiu didn't know how to answer. In fact, to some extent, when facing this little emperor with too much imagination and too divergent thinking, Ye Chunqiu often felt a little powerless.

Zhu Houzhao continued to sigh: "If I could leave the palace, it would be fine if I moved out. It would be fine wherever I went. Speaking of which, I like Datong very much, well... Actually, I like it too outside the pass, Chunqiu, what do you think of Liaodong?"

"this……"
