Chapter 667 Annan
In other timelines, the emperor murmured: "The emperor guards the nation's gates, the monarch dies for the state."
Each dynasty's "copy" is different; the founding of a dynasty is extraordinary, and the difficulty is even more different, yet it can only hover around three hundred years.
The ministers who heard this thought to themselves, "Unimaginable," for they remembered what their descendants had said about ethnic integration, and how in the new era to come, people who had been at odds for thousands of years would live in harmony.
The small screen in my hand is still glowing, and the wheels of history continue to roll forward.
During the Yongle era, Zhu Di, with a fierce and stern look, would seize upon Zhu Gaochi and berate him: "I've been moving house for twenty years, and now that I've kicked the bucket, you're in such a hurry to go back to Nanjing?"
Zhu Gaochi silently lowered his head. What was his father saying? His grandson hadn't listened to his father either! He was angry too!
Zhu Gaoxu had a sudden inspiration. He nudged his elder brother with his elbow and whispered, "Brother, how about I discipline your nephew and help you vent your anger?"
Zhu Gaochi: ? ? ?
Zhu Gaosui chuckled to himself, thinking, "Second brother, why don't you see the scheming on his face?"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Di frowned slightly. He now understood why his father used to beat them so often!

"Next, we will talk about Zheng He's voyages to the Western Ocean. As you all know, when Zhu Yuanzhang was alive, he implemented a maritime ban, which meant that no boat was allowed to go to sea."
"The prohibition of civilians from engaging in maritime trade and trading with foreign merchant ships was probably to prevent attacks from Zhang Shicheng's remnants, Japanese pirates, and other groups."
"Early in the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Zhu was probably too busy to handle everything at once. He had to build infrastructure while continuing to fight wars, and the Japanese pirates along the coast kept attacking, and natural disasters kept happening!"
Zhu Baba of the Ming Dynasty: Who understands the suffering of our old Zhu!
"However, Zhu Yuanzhang did not strictly restrict the tribute trade. He established maritime trade offices in some local ports to require foreign merchants to trade through official channels."
"Simply put, foreign envoys would bring their local specialties such as spices and ivory, and then Zhu would reciprocate with gifts."
"Anyway, if there are local specialties, they send local specialties; if there are no local specialties, they send animals; and some even send people. For example, during the Hongwu era, Zhu Yuanzhang received several hundred black slaves from Java."
"Zhu Di was more tolerant and open-minded than Zhu Yuanzhang. He wrote a letter to the vassal states: '...In all the land under the sun, where the sun and moon shine and where frost and dew fall, the people, young and old...I am the ruler of the world, and you all must obey me!'"
Judy: ?????????? )?
"Although some say it was to find his nephew Zhu Yunwen, compared to a chase where one could not escape, Zhu Di's Zheng He's voyages were more likely to promote national prestige, conduct diplomacy, and then make some money."
"Thus, the Ming Dynasty's Zheng He fleet set sail in a grand procession. Of course, this fleet was not only composed of officials like Zheng He, but also included doctors, soldiers, sailors, translators, and other talented individuals."
"Because not all vassal states understand the saying 'A wise man submits to circumstances,' they will naturally have to taste the bitterness of the Ming Dynasty's fist when faced with this situation."
"As the eldest son, Zhu Di also mediated the conflict between Champa and Annam. The Ming Dynasty was rising, but Annam was in the midst of a civil war, with a change of power, a usurper killing the original king, and the king of Champa complaining to Judy: Boss! I've been bullied by Annam!"
"In the fifth year of the Yongle reign, Annam was in high spirits, raiding the Ming borders and even killing the last descendant of the former king and capturing Ming soldiers. Zhu Di originally wanted to give him a chance to avoid fighting, but alas, this fellow did not cherish it!"
"Therefore, Judy decided to raise an army and sent Zhu Neng, Zhang Fu, Mu Sheng and others to lead troops to attack Annam. It took them almost a year to conquer Annam."
"Zhu Di established the Jiaozhi Regional Military Commission and the Provincial Administration Commission to directly govern the region, but Annam, which had been independent since the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, was not a compliant state in nature."
“During Judy’s reign, she repeatedly rebelled and caused unrest. Whenever there was unrest, the Ming army had to suppress it. When Zhu Zhanji succeeded to the throne, he withdrew his troops from Annam on the grounds that “the Ming army had been sent to Annam many years ago.”
