The boy's depressed cry came from the Forbidden City.

It was not the little emperor, but his younger brother Zhu Yiliu, the King of the Ming Dynasty who was most favored by Empress Dowager Li.

In the revival of the emperor's journey towards the military battle, the eleven-year-old King Lu hugged the emperor's legs and feet and cried so hard that he could hardly suppress his tears.

"Why is my mother so cruel? My brother is far from being a vassal age, but he wants to enfeoff his brother thousands of miles away. All the relatives say that being a vassal overseas is the place for those who commit crimes. My brother did nothing wrong!"

Little Wanli is fifteen years old. In the few months after Chen Mu left, the young eunuch Zhang Jing measured his background and had three fingers, and his eyebrows were also spread out and he looked more like Emperor Longqing, an optimistic and cheerful Emperor Longqing. A young man could look like a few months in this era.

Wanli didn't say anything, looked down at his younger brother, raised his hand and gently waved the eunuch following behind him, and then slowly squatted down.

"Zhu Yiliu, when I was as old as you, I had not cried for two hours after kneeling down. Don't cry anymore."

King Lu cried so hard that his nose and tears rubbed against the hem of Little Wanli's regular clothes. His brother didn't mind his younger brother being dirty. He held Lu Wang's shoulders with both hands and whispered: "You and I will leave the Emperor's family, and I can't help myself. Don't cry, come with me."

King Lu was the little devil in the palace. He was spoiled by Empress Dowager Li and the emperor, and did not have the heavy responsibility that Wanli shoulders. No one except the Empress Dowager and the emperor could restrain this curious and noble boy, but he listened very much to his brother.

Although my shoulders kept loose due to the sadness of hearing the bad news, I stood up and clenched a finger of Wanli and walked along the bluestone road of the palace.

"My father named me Jun, hoping that I would govern the world as free as a craftsman to turn it into Jun, but he probably wouldn't have expected that the world would become bigger in my Wanli period."

"The servants in the palace are talking about it, and they have written them from the Han Dynasty. Moreover, the emperor is a family in the world. But I don't know how big the four seas are, nor do I know what the meaning of the four seas are my home. There is nothing but fish in the sea. What's the use of the four seas?"

After leaving Xihuamen and passing through the moat, Xiao Wanli led the Lu King all the way north. There were eunuchs who had left the eunuch Shang Baojian and Bingbi straight rooms, and they should not go out to disturb the emperor's carriage.

While walking, Xiao Wanli was muttering to comfort Lu Wang, and slipped into the sweets room and stuffed it into Lu Wang's mouth. As a result, he heard his younger brother smacking his lips with candy, and he turned back halfway and took two pieces for himself. When he came out, he was holding a silk nest in his hand and a lacquer food box that cuts muffins, which was very satisfied.

The palace maid and eunuch in the sweet food room were startled.

"It's delicious. The sugar is made of sugar cane. There are sugar cane in Asia, and there are a lot of it."

Not to mention that it’s okay, when the mention of Asia, King Lu cried again, and even vomited tiger-eyed candy: “I don’t eat candy! I don’t like eating candy the most!”

The disgusting little face and firm eyes, if it weren't for wrapping the silk scarf around half of the candy in his sleeve, Wanli would have really believed it.

"Okay, it will stick to it for a while and it will not be eaten." Wanli glanced at the sleeves hidden behind King Lu and said, "I have known about the matter of vassals for a long time. I just told you that you are still far from vassals. Don't make a noise because of this. If you make your mother dislike you, you will punish you to kneel down."

King Lu raised his little face: "My mother has never asked her to kneel down."

But before two seconds of pride, he immediately asked again: "How far is it?"

"I will be a vassal only after getting married. I will have to go to a few days for a wedding. You will have to say at least three years? If the Ming army goes well in Asia and is determined at the beginning of the third year, it will be possible to set up a mansion. I will repair your mansion for you. More or less three years, you don't have to leave and live in the palace."

Lu Wang put his fingers on his mind and calculated again and again. Three years and three years, are these six years?

After finishing, he opened his big eyes and asked, "Why is the mother planning to tell her ministers and brothers all over the world about to take up Asia?"

"Who doesn't know that I am closest to you, and who doesn't know that my mother loves you the most. Only by banning you to go to sea can the royal family know that going to sea is a good thing."

After Zhang Juzheng finished mourning, he submitted a memorial to the Empress Dowager to return the emperor, but was rejected by the Empress Dowager. Not only Empress Dowager Li, but Xiao Wanli was also sincere in this regard. He tried to govern the country by himself, but he could not do so.

All kinds of matters and rules can make him exhausted.

Empress Dowager Li also believed that it was too early for the emperor to take power now, so he should be asked to proceed step by step and grasp the principles of governing the country and the prestige of the court little by little. The court still needed Zhang Juzheng, which was very necessary.

However, since the emperor has taken more power than before, and he has indeed made decisions on several things. The most important thing is to inform the clans of the world that Lu Wang was in the vassal state.

It is not impossible to enthrone the clan relatives with punishment, but the person who can really enthrone the clan is definitely not what the emperor wanted to enthrone at the beginning. The threshold of the clan mansion was almost broken, and the princes and princes from all over the country were so panicked when they heard the news that they gave gifts to the palace endlessly, which made Xiao Wanli's heart soft.

In just half a year, not counting the calligraphy, paintings and jewelry that entered the inner warehouse, there were 170,000 taels of silver alone. The clans of Uncle Wanli, at least, were all very afraid of this decree.

Xiao Wanli decided to change his strategy to make them think it was a good thing, and then block them out.

"I can't explain the truth in detail. If you take the time to read the Tao Te Ching more, you will understand it. This is called allowing others to exert their subjective initiative. I can only tell you that this is very important."

"As I said, the world has become bigger in my age name, and the overseas land has gone far beyond the Han and Tang dynasties. Even when Cheng Zu Grandpa was not as much land as the West, South and East, which one has no land for thousands of miles."

Little Wanli concluded like a little adult: "The court cannot control it, and can still be at peace for ten or twenty years. Once the overseas wings are full, it will change sooner or later. Starting from the East, there must be a king-supporting position."

"The prince is in charge, starting with you and me. Asia, either you go or I go." Xiao Wanli didn't even say that I claimed to be like me, raised his hand and patted him on his chest, "If you don't want to go, I can only let my mother allow the throne to abdicate to you. I will go to Asia and become a vassal."

"I don't want to be the emperor. If I can let me stay in the palace and look at the heavenly face, I will be satisfied."

What Xiao Wanli said was indeed not polite. He really planned to do it like this if he really couldn't. He also knew that the Empress Dowager could really do this with the degree of love for her younger brother and herself.

In fact, he envied King Lu.

"Then what's good about overseas? Since the emperor knows that it will change, just ignore it."

"Silly, you like coral pearls, gold and silver, and there are in the South China Sea; there are also in the West and the East. Overseas barbarians and other countries are seizing land. Do you know what barbarians are?"

King Lu was destined to be unable to participate in politics, but he still read some books and memorized them well, saying: "Tang Taizong called the barbarians and beasts, fearing power but not merciful."

"Yes, comparing those countries on the sea to beasts is to praise them. Even the beasts are destined, but they don't know, then do you know how to deal with them?"
