Chapter 334: Rooster Transforms into Begonia

Things turned out just as Suning had expected. In the gunfight that took place in Goryeo, Xu Shouhui was beaten to death on the spot by Ni Wenjun. In the end, it was Chen Youliang and Zhang Dingbian who benefited from the conflict. Then Chen Youliang used the excuse of revenge for Xu Shouhui to beat Ni Wenjun to death as well.

Chen Youliang and Zhang Dingbian had just defeated Ni Wenjun, and before they could enjoy the fruits of victory, Hu Dahai's 50,000 Ming troops appeared in front of them.

Upon hearing the Ming Dynasty's appointment brought by Hu Dahai, Chen Youliang and Zhang Dingbian, no matter how reluctant they were in their hearts, had no choice but to accept the order and express their gratitude, and they also had to show an expression of gratitude.

Li Chenggui was a surrendered general recruited by Chen Youliang from Goryeo. Because of his bravery in battle and his high status and connections in Goryeo, he was also highly valued by Chen Youliang.

Seeing that Chen Youliang and Zhang Dingbian were both unwilling to give up, Li Chenggui suddenly made a sinister suggestion, "Your Majesty, why not just kill Hu Dahai and then eat up these 50,000 Ming troops in one go.

Then we will gather all the strength of Goryeo and attack the Liaodong region together. Now that the Mongols have just surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, they must be in the most panic. "

"Hehe, Li Chenggui, you probably don't know how brave Hu Dahai is?

Even Zhang Dingbian would find it difficult to capture Hu Dahai and escape unscathed.”

"Ah? So powerful?"

"Hehe! The Ming Dynasty is full of powerful generals. Emperor Hong Zhao might be hoping that we will do this so that he can deal with us directly."

"This"

"Lee Seong-gye, I know exactly what's going on in your mind.

However, I advise you now to give up your unrealistic fantasies and serve me honestly."

"Yes! Your Majesty!
I will definitely fulfill my duties faithfully!"

“Haha, from now on, I will call myself this official.

Goryeo Province Administration Commission?
Actually, this position is pretty good!" Chen Youliang suddenly smiled wryly.

"Brother, I don't want to go to Yingtian Prefecture. How about I ask Emperor Hong Zhao to let me stay?"

"Go! There will be a brighter future if you return to the inland of Ming!
Don't let your imagination run wild. Just serve Emperor Hong Zhao and the Ming Dynasty with peace of mind. I have a feeling he won't treat us brothers unfairly."

"This"

Chen Youliang was a real "dragon", but he knew that he no longer had any chance. Emperor Hong Zhao developed too fast, so fast that those who were interested in him had not yet reacted, and Emperor Hong Zhao had already solved all the problems.

No matter how unwilling Chen Youliang was at this time, he still had to face up to the gap in strength between the two sides. No matter how angry he was, it would be extinguished by Emperor Hong Zhao's casual "dragon urine".

At this time, Lee Seong-gye, who had been trying his best, was unwilling to accept the reality. He did not want to continue wasting time in Goryeo. He wanted to look for other opportunities. Looking around Goryeo, only Japan had this possibility.

Queen Liu brought a dozen beautiful women and ran to Emperor Hong Zhao, then excitedly told him her arrangements.

"Suning, are these women pretty?"

"What? What are you going to do again?" Suning was confused by his wife.

"Suning, they are all top beauties selected from Tohwan Temur's harem. Don't you like them?"

"Huh? Aren't you busy compiling medical books recently?

Where do you find the time for this stuff?"

"Haha, I'm just responsible for overall management and logistics of the world's famous doctors, but I'm not needed for the specific matters.

How is it? Do you like it? "

"Hey! All of you go down!" Emperor Hong Zhao Suning looked at his wife speechlessly, then gave instructions to the beauties.

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

After all the women had left, Su Ning looked at Liu with a wry smile, "Have you heard that in history, Zhu Di's background has always been rumored to be the son of Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty?"

"Huh? Is there such a thing?"

"Yes! There is a rumor in later generations that Ma was not Zhu Di's biological mother. Zhu Di's biological mother was a Korean woman who was once a maid or concubine of Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty.

Coupled with the various preferential treatments Zhu Di later showed towards Goryeo, this further "proved" this bizarre rumor.

"Ah? Looks like I meant well but ended up doing something bad!
Sorry! Suning! "

"Haha, nothing!"

"Suning, what should we do with these women in Emperor Shundi's harem?"

"Give it to a meritorious soldier as his wife!"

"That's fine too!"

"Suning, I heard that you plan to send Mao Gui to garrison the former Yuan Shangdu?"

"Yes! The current territory of the Ming Dynasty is the most ideal "crabapple leaf" terrain, so the garrison troops must advance."

"Haha, I can't believe we turned 'Rooster' into 'Begonia Leaf'!"

“Hehe, this is just the beginning.

"I want to try to conquer the world. India is pretty straightforward, but the Southeast Peninsula might be a little more challenging. The resistance in Europe and the Middle East is likely to be the most intense, so I hope Zhu Yuanzhang, a strong man, can go to Europe," Suning said with a smile as he analyzed the situation with his wife, Liu.

"Zhu Yuanzhang is the most suitable person in Europe, but the Middle East is all desert. There is no need to fight for it now, right?" Liu also nodded in agreement with her husband's analysis and arrangement.

“Haha, at least we should take possession of the ‘Middle Eastern Husky’!

That’s a real traffic artery.”

“Middle Eastern Husky?”

“Haha, it’s the Ottoman Empire now and Türkiye in the future.

And Persia is also a good place."

Now is the best opportunity for the Chinese nation to rise. If it wants to occupy the world, it is only possible now. It will be too late if it waits until the late Ming Dynasty.

The current Ming Dynasty is a newly emerging country. Although the change of dynasties did not consume much national strength, the Ming Dynasty still had to calm down and recuperate, and more importantly, it had to conduct large-scale military training.

Because Suning has always tried to solve problems peacefully, it rarely massacred Mongolian soldiers. There are a large number of surrendered soldiers and generals in the Ming army. The contradictions and problems are not prominent at this stage, but as time goes by, the contradictions and conflicts between them will definitely increase, and one day they will explode.

In order to completely solve this problem, we must follow the original training methods of the Red Flag Army and strengthen knowledge and ideological education. Only with such subtle guidance can everyone truly integrate into the Chinese nation of the Ming Dynasty.

Suning also knows that he is too idealistic and that various problems will definitely arise in the future, but the opportunity is right in front of him. If he doesn't try it, he will really regret it for the rest of his life.

Su Ning was reviewing memorials from various places in the imperial study when he suddenly saw Li Shanchang running in with an anxious look on his face. "Your Majesty, we are in trouble now."

"What's the matter, Shanchang?"

"Your Majesty, the Censorate recently seized a batch of illegal liquor in Yingtian Prefecture, and it was ultimately discovered that it was the work of Hu Sanshe."

"Hu Sanshe? Hu Dahai's eldest son?"

"Yes! That's the little bastard!"

Because Suning knew that it was better to loosen than to block, when the country was short of food at the beginning of its founding, it did not ban winemaking across the board. It only encouraged the people and merchants to make fruit wine, and only allowed grain wine to be run by the government. Unexpectedly, there were still people who took the risk to make illegal wine.

The reason why Li Shanchang and others thought it was troublesome was because Hu Dahai was now guarding Goryeo, and his son had made such a serious mistake. If Hu Sanshe was punished, it would likely cause Hu Dahai's dissatisfaction.

"Well! Shanchang, are you worried that Hu Dahai might have an opinion?"

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

"Haha, Shanchang, you worry too much!

It is a universal truth that those who make mistakes must be punished. Hu Dahai is definitely not a foolish person."

"Then how will Your Majesty deal with Hu Sanshe?"

"Well! Just carry out the punishment according to the rules!
Hu Sanshe was demoted to slavery, and since he enjoys brewing wine, his wish should be fulfilled and he should be responsible for brewing wine for the rest of his life."

"Eh? Yes! Your Majesty!"

The Ming Dynasty had abolished the death penalty, and beheading was absolutely impossible. If Hu Sanshe was not punished, the new laws of the Ming Dynasty would inevitably suffer a severe blow, so Suning still gave Hu Sanshe a chance to live.

There will definitely be more troubles in the future, and Suning also knows that it is impossible to absolutely prohibit criminal acts, so as long as those who make mistakes are investigated and those who are guilty are punished, we can achieve political stability and social harmony.

Hu Dahai, who was far away in Goryeo, learned that his eldest son had committed a crime. He immediately submitted a memorial of apology. Then Su Ning told Hu Dahai how to deal with the matter, and then comforted and appeased him with kind words.

Thanks to Suning's series of bold moves, the Ministry of Industry quickly gathered a group of knowledgeable slave criminals. Coupled with Suning's reward mechanism for craftsmen, these skilled craftsmen soon agreed to publish their family crafts. Then, with the organization of knowledgeable scholars, a truly complete set of skills inheritance was quickly formed.

The craftsmen recruited from all over the country did not disappoint Suning. They produced the first steam engine in the first year of Hongzhao, and then continued to improve it. Finally, in the second year of Hongzhao, the steam engine reached maturity and could enter the practical stage.

The staff of the Ministry of Industry's Shipbuilding Department immediately designed a steam-powered ship. Then, under the inspiration of Emperor Hong Zhao, Suning, the Ministry of Industry also developed a steam locomotive, which finally put the Ming Dynasty's technology on the right track.

Because Suning has always encouraged commerce, there are now many handicraft workshops in the Jiangnan area of the Ming Dynasty, unlike the historical era of feudal socialism. These workshops have also become the first users of steam engines. Watching the Ming Dynasty's national strength gradually flourish, Suning is also very pleased and proud, and his painstaking efforts to transform this parallel world are worthwhile.

Seeing that he could not stir up trouble in Goryeo and Chen Youliang was completely tamed by the Ming Dynasty, Lee Seong-gye immediately took his family to Japan. Because they had been fighting with Japan for many years, the emperor and the Muromachi shogunate of Japan were very aware of Lee Seong-gye's abilities, and all parties in Japan showed great enthusiasm.

However, they shook their heads in disapproval of Lee Seong-gye's request for Japan to attack Ming. After all, the Japanese were not fools. How could they provoke Ming for no reason? Then they directly and politely rejected Lee Seong-gye's request.

However, Lee Seong-gye did not give up. Instead, he continued to stay in Japan patiently. On the surface, he was working for Japan, but in fact, he was subtly influencing the upper class of Japan to have antipathy towards the Ming Dynasty. The Japanese, who were already full of evil, were finally moved by Lee Seong-gye's instigation.

When the Japanese learned that the Ming Dynasty had sent special envoys to Japan, demanding that Japan recognize the Ming Dynasty as its suzerain state, they were extremely angry. Then they remembered the Yuan Dynasty's previous conquest of Japan. The stupid Japanese decided to retaliate against the Ming Dynasty. When the Ming envoys arrived in Japan, they were immediately killed by the Japanese people at the instigation of Lee Seong-gye.

"Sir Hu, I never thought that His Majesty would send you to Japan!" The deputy envoy looked at Hu Weiyong with flattery.

"Haha, maybe His Majesty particularly values Japan!"

"Haha, that's right! Japan is still very important to our Ming Dynasty."

In fact, Hu Weiyong also felt helpless. Although the Ming Dynasty had been established, he was still assigned to be in charge of foreign affairs and was not valued as he expected. Hu Weiyong, who already felt that he was being wasted, felt very aggrieved. This time, he was personally arranged by Emperor Hong Zhao to visit Japan.

Although Hu Weiyong did not understand in his heart, he still did not dare to contradict Emperor Hong Zhao, because he still remembered the punishment that Emperor Hong Zhao had given him. Then he gritted his teeth and insisted on accepting the appointment and boarded the ship to Japan.

Unfortunately, as soon as Hu Weiyong and his party arrived in Japan, they were attacked for no reason by the Japanese. Just when Hu Weiyong wanted the guards to resist, he was shot to death by a Japanese arrow, leaving him with infinite regret and confusion.

The news that the envoy was killed by the Japanese was soon reported back to the Ming court, and then Emperor Hong Zhao became unusually calm, as if he had expected it.

"Your Majesty, our Ming Dynasty should punish the small country of Japan." Li Shanchang said while suppressing his grief when he learned the news of Hu Weiyong's murder.

"No! Your Majesty!

Our Ming Dynasty has just begun to recuperate, and is still engaged in large-scale warfare in the Southeast Peninsula. It is really inappropriate to start a war with Japan! "Liu Bowen hurriedly and rationally stopped Emperor Hong Zhao from getting angry. He always felt that something was wrong at this time. After all, there was no need to send Hu Weiyong to Japan. Liu Bowen always felt that Emperor Hong Zhao did it on purpose.

"The barbarians are beasts, they fear power but not virtue!" Emperor Hong Zhao, Suning, directly said a famous saying from the Northern Song Dynasty, then looked at Fang Guozhen beside him, "Fang Guozhen!"

"Chen is here!"

"I heard that you have been associated with coastal pirates?"

"Your Majesty, please listen to my explanation!" Fang Guozhen was so frightened that he immediately knelt down and wanted to explain.

"No need to explain! You just need to say yes or no!"

"Yes! Your Majesty! I know I was wrong!"

"Fang Guozhen, I don't want to accuse you of anything, but I want to give you a task."

"Ah? Your Majesty, I will do my best!" Fang Guozhen couldn't help but think of it in surprise.

"Yes! Contact all the pirates along the coast, go to Japan, and hire Japanese ronin as mercenaries in the name of Southeast Peninsula natives. Go to the Southeast Peninsula to fight against the Ming army."

"Ah?" Fang Guozhen widened his eyes in shock, and the other ministers were not much better than Fang Guozhen. They all looked at Emperor Hong Zhao in confusion.

At this time, Liu Bowen was already convinced in his heart that it was Emperor Hong Zhao who did it on purpose. It seemed that Emperor Hong Zhao had long had the idea of attacking Japan, but he didn't know why Emperor Hong Zhao hated the Japanese so much.

"While the ship is on its way or when it reaches the Southeast Peninsula, we will join forces with the Ming army to kill these Japanese wanderers."

"Ah? Yes! Your Majesty!"

"Chang Yuchun!" Suning suddenly looked at the "God of Killing" who had been suppressed by him. It was time to let him vent.

"Chen is here!"

"I order you to lead 200,000 land troops and 100,000 naval forces from the Korean Peninsula to attack and capture Japan. No one on the island of Japan will be spared!"

"Yes! Your Majesty!" Chang Yuchun felt that every pore of his body was excited.

"Wang Baobao!"

"Chen is here!"

"I order you to serve as Chang Yuchun's deputy general, to assist General Chang in his campaign against Japan."

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

Perhaps the former Mongols hated Japan more than anyone else in the Ming Dynasty. After all, the failure of the Yuan Dynasty's attack on Japan had always been regarded as a shame by the Mongols, and this time they finally had a chance to avenge the previous shame.

Suning knew the history of the Mongols and Japan, so he arranged Wang Baobao as Chang Yuchun's deputy general. This time, the 200,000-strong army was also planned to be mainly composed of former Mongols.

Suning knew that because of his forced harmony, not everyone was as happy as they seemed. Many former Mongolian subordinates were actually unwilling to accept this. He could take advantage of this opportunity to attack Japan to let them vent their animal nature.

Suning has always been committed to integrating multiple ethnic groups into the unity of the Ming Dynasty, and a common enemy must emerge. Japan is honored to have automatically become the unanimous "target". Only when they face the foreign enemy together, will the former Mongols and Yuan Dynasty members truly identify themselves as part of the Ming Dynasty.

Using an army of 300,000 to deal with a small country like Japan is like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. With the enthusiastic participation of the indigenous people of Goryeo, the Ming Dynasty quickly destroyed Japan, and then immigrants from the Ming Dynasty came to guard Japan for generations.

In the tenth year of Hong Zhao, after nearly ten years of recuperation, not only did the population of the Ming Dynasty explode, but its scientific and technological strength also increased day by day. Steam ironclad ships and steam locomotives were all used by the Ming Dynasty.

Inspired by Suning's later firearms and artillery, the Ming Dynasty's firearms became even more advanced, becoming a world leader and never lagging behind Western technology again.

On February 2, the tenth year of Hong Zhao, the Ming army began its westward offensive, occupying the entire Europe along the way and rapidly immigrating and stationing troops in Europe.

After completely pacifying the Southeast Peninsula, Guo Ying and Zhu Wenzhen once again led a large army from the Southeast Peninsula to cooperate with the Ming navy to enter Yudu (India), and then easily established a unified regime in Yudu.

The Ming army was invincible wherever it went, and quickly occupied the richest regions in the world. It immediately collected all the massive wealth from all over the place and transported it back to the Ming Dynasty, and then continued to station troops in various important strongholds around the world.

The Ming army was even more brave than the Mongolian army back then. Not only was it because of the destruction caused by the Mongolian army, but also because of the Ming Dynasty's own conquest and training. Soon the whole world was bathed in the sunshine of the Ming Dynasty.

Suning knew that one day people from all over the world would awaken to their thoughts, but as long as the Ming Dynasty persisted in guiding people's thoughts, there would definitely be many people like India who were born "obedient citizens". Even if the troops from all over the world were withdrawn in the end, the Ming Dynasty's Chinese civilization would still rule the world.

Because the territory of the Ming Dynasty expanded, all the arrogant soldiers and generals had a good home, so the four major cases in the early Ming Dynasty did not occur at all. This allowed Zhu Yuanzhang, who had always been the most nervous, to be at ease as the king of Europe. With the strong support of the Ming Dynasty, the Zhu family guarded the European land for generations.

Xu Da was arranged by Emperor Hong Zhao Suning in the Persian and Ottoman regions of the Middle East. He was the king for generations and guarded the Middle East, protecting the shipping routes from Europe to the East.

Because Chang Yuchun was the most favored by Emperor Hong Zhao, he was assigned to the Southeast Peninsula to guard the disloyal indigenous people in various places, while Guo Ying and Guo Xing were assigned to India, making India the brightest jewel in the crown of the Ming Dynasty.

Because of the rapid popularization of ironclad ships in the Ming Navy, the Ming army soon occupied Southeast Asia and Australia, and Hu Dahai guarded these places for generations.

The distant American continent has always been valued by Suning, so he finally handed it over to his sons, letting them become kings and establish countries there, and treating the local indigenous Indians with favor, trying his best to transform them into part of the Ming Dynasty people.

As for places like Goryeo and Japan, because they were too close to the Ming Dynasty, they were handed over to Suning's own sons. Because of decades of "struggle" day and night, Emperor Hong Zhao Suning had more than 60 sons in the Ming Dynasty, and countless grandchildren.

In the 68th year of Hong Zhao, Empress Liu of the Daming Dynasty was already terminally ill. Looking at Emperor Hong Zhao Suning, who had retired to the second line and became the Supreme Emperor this year, and her important children and grandchildren standing in the room, Liu showed a satisfied smile.

Liu suddenly looked at Suning, "Suning, I am so happy in this life!"

"Xixi, thank you! I'm very happy too!" Su Ning held Liu's hand tightly.

"Suning, I suddenly miss my mom so much!"

"Haha, it's okay! I'll take you back!"

"Ah? Can we still go back?"

"Of course! Your man can do anything!"

Su Ning kissed Liu gently on the forehead, and then Liu on the hospital bed suddenly disappeared miraculously under the gaze of all the dragon's sons and grandsons.

"what?"

"Shut up!" Su Ning stopped his children and grandchildren from exclaiming, then looked at Su Ming, the second emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Huaxing Emperor, and said, "Emperor, announce the death of the Queen Mother!"

"Yes! Father!" Emperor Huaxing Su Ming suppressed his grief and answered respectfully.

"The Empress Dowager has passed away."

With the death of the virtuous Empress Liu, it marked the end of an era, but the legend of Suning and the Liu family continued.
Liu Yifei suddenly woke up from her sleep, "Ah"

"What's wrong? Xixi, are you having a nightmare again?" At this time, the voice that Liu Yifei had been thinking about day and night sounded.

"Mom! Is it really you?" Liu Yifei looked at the owner of the voice in surprise, and then said in tears.

"Haha, silly kid, you're having sleep hysteria!"

"Mom! I miss you so much!" Liu Yifei hurriedly and nervously hugged her mother.

"Silly child, you just took a nap, why are you suddenly so weird!"

It took a long time for Liu Yifei to recover, and then she suddenly remembered something important, but she felt like she had no idea where to start, and the memory in her mind became more and more confused and fuzzy, it really felt like an illusory dream.

"Sissi, are you okay?"

"Ah? Mom, I'm fine!" Liu Yifei quickly smiled at her mother, then continued to mutter softly, "Suning? Who is Suning?"

　In the next world, "Parents' Love", the soul travels through time and space to become a scheming boy. The plot is absolutely passionate!
