"Sit down and eat together."
Wang Chengen will bow and salute:
"My lord, this is inappropriate..."
Although Zhu Youjian is a time traveler, he still values Wang Chengen very much. The old eunuch who was able to accompany Chongzhen to hang himself on Meishan Mountain, his loyalty to the royal family need not be questioned.
Wang Chengen is different from the eunuch like Wei Zhongxian. He doesn't have that kind of ability, nor does he have that kind of ambition. He only has loyalty. Zhu Youjian looked at the somewhat frightened Old Wang and smiled slightly:
"Sit down! It's hard work taking care of the three princesses."
"That's right, the emperor has already spoken, Wang Banban sit down quickly!"
Weixie stood up and helped Wang Chengen sit down, and the old Wang was so moved that he hurriedly wanted to kneel down to thank the emperor and princess, but was held back by Zhu Weixie.
"Thank you Your Majesty, thank you Your Highness Princess, I will swear allegiance to the Emperor and Your Highness Princess to the death."
After seeing Wang Chengen take his seat, Zhu Youjian held up his wine glass and said to the three princesses Aqing and Wang Chengen:
"Don't be restrained, taste how my wine tastes."
Old Princess Wang and Ah Qing hurriedly got up and held up their wine glasses:
"I wish my father, my majesty, my lord, good health and a long life!"
"Okay, I wish everyone happy, cheers!"
"Thank you father, thank you Your Majesty, cheers..."
Zhu Youjian took a sip of wine lightly, motioned for everyone to sit down, and said slowly:
"In a few days, the emperor will take Batavia by himself, and the return date is yet to be determined. During this period, Ah Qing and the royal guards will be responsible for the safety of Weixiong, Jianwen and Ziwei.
During this period, Lao Wang will try his best to handle the outside business. I don't want the three princesses to leave Beijing. You don't have to deal with the affairs of the overseas company of the Royal Chamber of Commerce. You just need to check the accounts with them when handing over. "
"The imperial conquest?"
"Father, don't want it. Now that the Ming army is as strong as the sun, there is no need for your royal conquest. The sea battle is not like the mainland, and the sons don't want the father's personal conquest."
When the three princesses heard that their father wanted to conquest in person, they immediately ran over and hugged Zhu Youjian, and begged bitterly. They were all worried that something might happen to their father.
Princess Kunxing Weiwei has only her father as a relative. Although Jianwen and Ziwei are not born to Zhu Youjian, they are both orphans adopted by him. The four of them have developed a deep relationship.
The most loyal old eunuch to Daming, Wang Chengen even knelt at Zhu Youjian's feet:
"Your Majesty, no, any general of the Ming Dynasty can lead the battle. You really don't need to lead the expedition yourself. The Ming Dynasty has just been revived, so you can't be left alone for a day.
Zhu Youjian knew that these were people who really cared about his safety, so he patted the three princesses, then reached out to help Lao Wang and said with a smile:
"Back in the day, I was like a fish in water among an army of millions of rogues, and the foolish rogues fled, so I was afraid of a few red-haired and black ghosts.
Besides, I won't go into battle lightly, I'm just cheering for my soldiers of the Ming Dynasty to open up the territory and expand the territory. There is no danger at all. You all put your heart in your stomach and wait at home for my victory and victory.
Also, after this battle is over, I plan to find a good husband for Weixiong. Zheng Chenggong, the commander of the Daming Navy, is a very good candidate. Not only is he young and promising, he is also very handsome. My good daughter will definitely be satisfied. "
The few people never expected that Zhu Youjian's topic would suddenly change, and he would actually switch from the royal conquest to finding a husband's family for Princess Kunxing Zhu Weixie.
Zhu Weixi's pretty face was red to the ears at that time, and she didn't dare to look up at the crowd, and her heart was beating wildly:
"Father, my son-in-law don't want to marry, and my son-in-law wants to stay with my father until the end of his life."
Wei Xi is 15 years old this year. Under normal circumstances, she should be married, but she is not yet married.
Jianwen is 14 years old this year, Ziwei is 13 years old this year, Zao Daming has reached the age of engagement, but Zhu Youjian is a modern time traveler, and in his heart these two children are underage.
Wei's shy and nervous appearance made Zhu Youjian suddenly feel distressed. To be honest, it was too early to get married at the age of 15. Even if he went to the countryside to do as the Romans did, Zhu Youjian was still a little reluctant to marry Princess Kunxing right away.
"Weixi, Father doesn't force you. If you don't want to leave Father for the time being, you can wait a few more years to get married, but this time you'd better settle the marriage first!"
This time Weixi did not object:
"It's all up to the father to make the decision. The son just wants to spend more time with the father. Regarding Jianwen and Ziwei, the father should treat them equally. The son thinks that Xia Wanchun and Li Dingguo are suitable for them."
"Sister, don't cancel my sister, she is still very young..."
Princess Jianwen and Princess Ziwei were taken aback by her sister's words. The two girls fell into Weixiong's arms and acted like a baby, which made Zhu Youjian and Lao Wang laugh.
Princess Kunxing is a little older. She treats Jianwen and Ziwei like her own sisters, and never looks down on them. The three little girls are inseparable all day long, and their relationship is as good as one person.
Both Jianwen and Ziwei are orphans and have never felt the warmth of their families since they were young.
They didn't expect that after entering the palace, they would receive meticulous care from the emperor and the princess. In their hearts, the kindness of sister and father to them was beyond words.
Zhu Youjian looked at Jianwen and Ziwei, then thought about Xia Wanchun and Li Dingguo, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he felt that Weixie's idea was very good.
At this time, Zheng Chenggong, Xia Wanchun and Li Dingguo were not engaged to get married because they had fought all over the world, so it was time to settle their lifelong affairs.
If the three princesses are betrothed to Zheng Chenggong, Xia Wanchun and Li Dingguo, it will not only value the three outstanding young people, but also make them more loyal to Daming.
However, Zhu Youjian knew that now was not the time, he was about to set off, and everything had to wait for the victory before making a conclusion. If the three of them did not object, Zhu Youjian could give the marriage.
Chapter 465 Overseas Colonial Plan
Back at Qianqing Palace, the sky was already dark, Ah Qing will move to live with the princess from tonight.
Zhu Youjian sat on the dragon bed and thought about the battle for Batavia. The weather, sea conditions, and sailing routes were not a problem. He could exchange the best blueprints from the system at any time.
Daming's troops are strong and horses are good now, but the troops are still insufficient, and the territory that has been conquered must have enough troops to defend.
As for the consumption of money in wars, Zhu Youjian didn't take it seriously. No matter which country he fought, Zhu Youjian had the ability to make the country being beaten pay for the Ming army.
The Netherlands is known as the coachman of the sea, and its strength is still very strong, but its troops are scattered. If the Asian headquarters is attacked, they will definitely fight back desperately.
Zhu Youjian knew that as long as they destroyed their bases in Asia, without supplies and footholds, the Netherlands would be powerless even if they wanted to counterattack, and could only obediently give up colonizing those small countries in Asia.
In Zhu Youjian's heart, the small countries colonized by him used to be the vassal states of Ming Dynasty, and he would take them back one by one. When the small countries colonized by Western powers returned to the embrace of Ming Dynasty, they would become provinces of a certain country. .
Opening the system map, Zhu Youjian looked at the location of Batavia and the recent weather. He was going to choose the best time to impress Batavia with a sudden blow.Remember Biquge on the mobile phone in one second → m.BiqugeTv.Com provides you with wonderful novels to read.
Batavia is located on the northwest coast of Java. The city covers an area of about 740 square kilometers. It is 3800 kilometers away from Taiwan. The residents are mainly Javanese, Batavian, etc., and there are a few Chinese.
It is now the headquarters of the Dutch East India Company, and its trade covers Asia, Europe and Africa. It has a tropical rainforest climate and has always been a famous seaport for exporting spices and pepper.
The sea and land transportation hub is also the throat of transportation between the Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean, and it is also an important bridge between Asia and Oceania.
The terrain is high in the south and low in the north. There are more than ten rivers, the most famous of which is the Cirion River. The entire area is composed of sedimentary layers. The southern area is a lush bio-alluvial layer, and the land is very fertile.
Looking at the weather, there has been a strong typhoon in the past five days, which is not suitable for going to sea. The typhoon passed through on June [-], and there has been no strong wind and waves for the next half month. It is the best opportunity to attack Batavia.
