Chapter 707: Covering one's ears and stealing the bell
Before noon, Zhu Gaoxu stayed in Rouyi Palace without going out. During this time, he did not see Queen Chen of Annan again.
Zhu Gaoxu spent the entire morning reading recent memorials, but he did not review most of them. Instead, he handed them over to the cabinet for processing; even so, it took half a day.
There was another memorial from a foreign envoy that caught Zhu Gaoxu's attention. The funeral document sent by the Japanese envoy was signed by "Prince Minamoto Yoshimochi of Japan" and reported the death of his father Minamoto Yoshimitsu.
Minamoto no Yoshimitsu (Ashikaga Yoshimitsu) once accepted the title of "King of Japan" from Emperor Jianwen of the Ming Dynasty and conducted Kango trade with the Ming Dynasty by paying tribute.
(Zhu Gaoxu understood the so-called Kange trade as a kind of official trade with political overtones. Japan sent envoys and merchants to the capital to pay tribute, and the court granted the merchants the goods they ne

She looked very similar to someone he met many years ago.Qi Tai immediately stood beside the cave entrance, silently observing the young lady not far away. He felt very complicated, and even felt that time was hazy and unreal.Last year, after he brought Yunniang back home, he left the capital for official business and went to the north to prepare food and fodder. After that, he had a lot of things to do and didn't have time to think about his own affairs. More than half a year later, when Qi Tai returned to the capital and saw Yunniang, he felt so strange.It is said that

The next day, Yao Ji sent a letter out of the palace. The letter to her brother Yao Fang was sent by the eunuch to Qingshou Temple, outside Taiping Gate, the northeast gate of the inner city, because Yao Fang was still living in the temple.He lived in the temple for so long, but he never became a monk and made no contribution to Qingshou Temple.At first, the monks were in awe of Yao Fang because of his status as a royal relative. But when the new abbot, Monk Qinghui, failed to ask Yao Fang to save Qingyuan, he gradually realized that Yao Fang seemed to have been abandoned by the emperor, and the monks' attitude became more and more disrespectful.In addition, Yao Fang had been staying for nearly a year, and the monks finally began to get impatient with him. They only provided vegetarian meals because of his family background.Yao Fang also had no money, and by this time he had already lived like a beggar, and was very depressed every day. The Yao fam

Many sea-going ships docked in the pond (dockyard) have been given a new look.

It was no longer cold in the capital at the end of February, and it was especially warm in the East Nuan Pavilion of Qianqing Palace.Charcoal is burning in the incense burner, but it is not for heating, but for incense. There is a hollow brass incense burner next to the wall. The craftsmanship is very exquisite and the surface is smooth. The palace people polished it until it was bright; the bright yellow color added a lot of luxury to the place.The Indian incense burning in the copper stove was a tribute from the envoys of Java Island. The smell is slightly pungent. It will not smell good at first, but after you get used to it, you will feel more comfortable.However, Zhu Gaoxu had already ignored the smell in the room, and his attention was distracted by other things. The ministers had not arrived yet, and Miaojin was talking to him.The imperial concubine Miaojin did not wear concubine's clothes, but she wore a purple cross-collar robe and a futou
Game of the Throne Chapter 712 National Morality
The first person to stand out against Xia Yuanji was completely unexpected by Zhu Gaoxu. He was Zhao Ping, Marquis of Yongqing.After the death of a group of the most prestigious founding heroes at the beginning of the country, there were the Jingnan Campaign, the Annan Campaign, the Conquest of Crimes, and the Northern Expedition to Tatar soon after. The frequent wars in the Ming Dynasty kept the status of military generals high. Although the system had been changed during the Hongwu period, most military and political offices no longer allowed military generals to hold power, but the meritorious military generals still had the power of public opinion, and their words were always effective in the court; the participation of military generals in political discussions was not the original creation of Zhu Gaoxu.When Zhao Ping was in Yunnan, he dealt with many chieftains. He was not very good at fighting, but he was a scholar before joining the army and was said to
Game of the Throne Chapter 713: Grand Vision and Strategy
The palace has chosen an auspicious date and festival to enthrone two concubines in early March of the first year of Wude. Among them, Li Xianhui, a member of the royal family of Joseon, will be the Consort Zhuang, and Shen (Baoyeon) will be the Concubine Zhuang.The Joseon envoy Kang Sun-sin originally thought that he could return to his country to report after seeing Lee Hyun-hye being canonized. However, they were not told when to attend the "horse-mounting banquet"; Kang Sun-sin and Park Gyeong-mu had recently met with the Ming Emperor in the Yoyi Palace, but they did not mention when to leave.It looks like the trip will have to be delayed for a while.As expected, Kang Shunchen soon found out some other things.The officials of the Ministry of Rites of the Ming Dynasty were discussing with the Japanese envoys about sending a Ming Dynasty delegation to Japan to confer the title of King. The final number of people was determined to be 30. The court
Game of the Throne Chapter 714: Moisturizing Things Silently
When Zhu Gaoxu was chatting in the living room, Ma Enhui occasionally had a funny feeling; because when Zhu Gaoxu talked about something he was proud of, he would look at Ma Enhui, and there was a sense of showing off in his eyes.In fact, the rule of the Jianwen Dynasty has completely collapsed, and reality has confirmed its failure. Zhu Gaoxu does not need to compare. But he seems to be very competitive, talking about cutting down vassal states, conquering the north, and achieving great achievements; this is incompatible with the saint's words of being unfazed by honor and disgrace, being indifferent and humble.Ma Enhui was not disgusted, she also felt that Zhu Gaoxu was indeed very ambitious; besides, the woman really didn't care about those achievements, as long as the family was not ruined. His greedy passion reminded her of the night a few months ago, and her heart was very confused for a while.The tea had been brewed, and Mrs. Shen Xu filled it with

From the end of February to the beginning of March, the capital experienced drizzle for several days.After coming out of Qingshou Temple, Yao Fang, who lived in simplicity, saw the people coming and going in the capital market. She felt that there was no change from half a year ago, but she also felt that something was a little different. Maybe it's just that his state of mind is different.The Yao and Qin families had completed the process of adoption and engagement, and had thought that it would be raining when they were welcoming the bride; but unexpectedly, on the auspicious day, the weather suddenly cleared up. The guests all took advantage of the weather to express their congratulations.Yao Fang's sister was a virtuous concubine and her father was a nobleman, but the emperor seemed to avoid them deliberately and did not send envoys to give gifts. However, there were many dignitaries who attended the banquet that day, including the Empress's family, t
