Chapter 1670 Your Majesty is really in a good mood this time
This change seems to have started after visiting Daning.
As someone who accompanied him to Daning, Han Chong knew the general reason.
His Majesty ascended the throne and endured the humiliation to seek peace, hoping to give the Liang Kingdom a chance to breathe. However, he went there in person and knelt down. In the end, he did not even see Emperor Yuan Wu's face and only received a message.
There is no chance of reconciliation between Daning and Liang.
This means that Daning retains the option of starting a war at any time, and Liang may not even have a chance to breathe.
His Majesty is under endless pressure... Under this heavy pressure, he can do anything, and he can become anything...
The originally hazy sky began to rain, and the entire Bianjing city was shrouded in mist and mist. People went out and held up white oil-paper umbrellas, which looked like white flowers in the rain curtain.
Prime Minister Daliang passed away!
The whole country is sad!
Zhu Zhen gave a civil servant the highest honor, posthumously named him King Wen, and nicknamed him Duke Wen. However, he still felt guilty and ordered to keep his mouth shut. Prime Minister Pang Shigu died outside the palace gate...
But how can there be airtight walls in this world, and the seal is only silent in public, how can it be silent in private?
He was once recognized by the court officials and the people as the master of ZTE, but now he has done confusing things one after another.
Where will the Liang Kingdom go?
The spring rain brings moist air to this dry spring, sweeping away all the restlessness in people's hearts.
The raindrops fell on the willow leaves, but they did not slip off. They were crystal clear. The willow leaves swayed with the spring breeze, and the raindrops dispersed, moistening the land again.
Guan Ning, who was about to embark on the road after the New Year, arrived in Liang State by the spring breeze after more than three months of journey...
wrong!
It should be said to be Daning!
Because the areas we came to were already the territory of Daning!
Liang State is the largest and most populous country in the Central Plains. It is located in the southwest of the mainland. Unlike the Daning state government system, Liang State has a provincial system, with a total of fifteen provinces in the country.
Now Daning has occupied Beilin Province, Shangyun Province and nearly half of Liaoqing Province in the north.
This is already quite a small area.
The territorial name system has not been changed since the occupation.
Guan Ning thought that after the Liang Kingdom was completely annexed, it would be unified and divided. This day would not be too far away.
Another consideration is that in order to have a clear distinction, Daning itself will be managed by the imperial court at the three levels of prefectures and counties, while the newly occupied areas will be enfeoffed.
In other words, these areas will be entrusted as territories.
These are the two systems proposed by Guan Ning.
For him, stepping into this land is not a stranger, but a return visit to his old place, especially the Beilin Province, where he is quite familiar.
Previously, Beilin Province was ceded to Daning by Zhu Zhen. Later, when the war broke out, it was recaptured by Liang Jun, and then captured again. Now it has completely changed hands.
Daning has devoted a lot of money to Beilin Province, and has given the original residents preferential treatment, such as exempting them from taxes, providing them with farmland for residence, etc...
The Liang people who lived in Beilin Province were not hostile to Daning and respected Guan Ning quite a lot.
When the war broke out with the Liang Kingdom, Zhu Zhen, who was still the prince, acted impulsively and radically. He did not care about the livelihood of the people, and went on a large-scale forced conquest, which lost the support of the people.
People's hearts are easy to lose and hard to come by.
After the war, the imperial court sent officials, and the people naturally obeyed and restored their homes step by step.
Guan Ning's trip was very purposeful. Among his entourage, there were a large number of people who had made donations and were about to obtain fiefs, and there were also people who had been granted fiefs but had not yet obtained fiefs.
Emperor Daning kept his word.
I'll give you a fiefdom when I say I'll give it to you. This time I'll take you to see it on the ground first.
Liang State is located in the southwest, and the climate is much more moderate than that of Daning in the north. As soon as you arrive here, you can notice the obvious difference.
He took people around for sightseeing, and he didn't just scold Fang Qiu.
"This area may belong to one of you in the future. Take a look. The river flows through it and the land is flat and fertile..."
Guan Ning thought to himself that if he were to change his outfit, he would be a gold medal salesperson at this moment, but it was almost the same.
All he has to do is sell all these lands!
Liang State has a large territory, so enfeoffment is the best choice.
"Don't worry, the areas given to you will definitely be good areas. There must be at least three areas with flat and fertile land, sufficient water sources, and a large population!"
Guan Ning's words made the accompanying people exclaimed that they were of great benefit.
This is a good deal.
In the imperial city, doing everything under the emperor's feet is done with trepidation. It is better to get a fief and become a lord and feel comfortable.
A piece of fiefdom can make the whole family prosperous. If it is passed down from generation to generation, the family will become more and more prosperous!
A real family has a fiefdom!
Some navy generals who had already received the title were secretly happy, and they did not compare themselves with those who made donations.
Your Majesty has already said that the income from charity donations will definitely not be comparable to those of their actual meritorious service.
Moreover, there is an upper limit for charity donations. The most you can do is to be granted the title of earl. That is still a truly sky-high price. It is not ordinary people to donate so much wealth to the court...
Due to the tight itinerary, I couldn't take a closer look and could only take a quick look at it, but I was still satisfied.
It is said that during the war, the Ministry of Industry and War had sent people to collect the actual situation and draw the map. It had been perfected and could be realized after returning to Beijing. In other words, they could arrive as early as the end of the year.
Become the lord of the new land.
Chapter completed!
