DAY 271 DISCUSSION
The reward of Baiming He is still like what he said that day, and Baiming He still doesn’t understand it very much.
It has been the year when we arrived in the Ming Dynasty. If Bai Minghe had placed his ancient Chinese texts in later generations, he would probably reach the level of a major undergraduate student in the ancient Chinese literature department of university.
But I still don’t understand much about the contents of the reward, but there are definitely many benefits.
Not to mention anything else, it is the goldfish bag, and Bai Minghe doesn't understand it. Even though he has seen the goldfish bag countless times, he doesn't know the name of the Dongchang. A rectangular bag with six fish lined up in two lines of fish, it seems to be a carp, and has no connection with the goldfish.
This cavalry, that lieutenant, Bai Minghexin said that it is impossible for a person to work part-time.
Bai Minghe didn't have a deep understanding of titles, honors, ranks, and titles, because he had never worked hard on these things, but only knew the official rank. He didn't even know that both princesses actually had different levels, first the difference between being a title and not being a title, and then the noble and ordinary titles.
Moreover, the length of this title also has different meanings.
Even the title of each generation of the Ming Dynasty princess has special considerations.
To put it further, the names of each generation of the royal descendants of the Ming Dynasty royal family have very deep considerations in the use of characters.
After kneeling for a quarter of an hour, the little eunuch in front of him had a row, and there were more than a dozen trays alone, four seals, eight rolls, six sets of clothes, various decorations for displaying their identities, as well as royal accessories gifted by the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, etc. The white-famous crane had a dazed eyes.
Finally, Eunuch Cai shouted again: "The Bai family in Guanzhong has good teachings, so reward..."
This time, Bai Chongyuan came out on behalf of the Bai family in Guanzhong to receive the reward, and also gave his mother, Bai Minghe's grandmother a title of imperial edict, and then a scroll of the title of king for Bai Qi, the ancestor of the Bai family.
Bai Minghe understood this time. It seemed that his ancestor Bai Qi was not far from the founding of the gods.
Anyway, I'll just kowtow and thank you now.
After Bai Chongyuan stood up, Bai Minghexin said that the reward he gave him should be over. But Eunuch Cai shouted: "Xuan Guanzhong Bai family, the third son Bai family, Chongxiong entered the palace."
Bai Chongxi was coming, Bai Minghe was a little surprised. He didn't even know.
Bai Chongxi followed Bai Chongyuan in, and he received a direct edict from the inner palace.
"Added to the royal family, Princess Yongqing, Princess Ruixiang, and given the name, Zhu Qijue!" After Eunuch Cai read it, an eunuch immediately came out with a piece of three-foot square paper, which was the word Jue, Jue (jue Jueyin)
Many civil officials were puzzled. Even if they knew that they would give white-named cranes, they did not have this method. Hu Yi, Chen Xun, He Wenyuan... came out seven or eight people at once. You should know that the name of the Ming princess has nothing to do with the genealogy. This princess who grew up outside the palace not only used the word Qi, but also had the same name as the current emperor.
The emperor's character is the golden character, and the princess's character is the king character.
"White-named He took out the jade pendant given by the late emperor to show all the beloved ministers. This name was ordered by the late emperor. I am just a son and abide by the late emperor's will. I know what the beloved ministers want to say. I have decided to give this name!"
After the white-known He took the jade pendant from his neck, several ministers took turns to look at it. Hu Yi said, "Since it was given by the late emperor, we have no objection. I just dare to ask long live. According to the Ming Dynasty, women must have amazing achievements in entering the genealogy and pass on the virtue of a hundred years. So I will be the one who attaches to the horse's commander, Bai Minghe. He will either seize the title now or be a minister who is looking for merit."
Bai Minghe was stunned and stared at Hu Yi blankly.
My heart said: Old man, I didn’t offend you, you will take my title if my woman takes my name. What does it mean to be a minister who is waiting for meritorious deeds? Could it be that I owe a merit to pay back in the future?
"I have already taken away the vassal, and I have made a contribution to the Bai Minghe according to the will of Chengzu, and I can be granted the title. I have asked the sermon to inspect the files and seize the title. This man rewarded him with the merits of the Little Luzon, and everything can be investigated according to the case. However, the will of Chengzu is not suitable for public disclosure. The cabinet and the six ministries, and the head of the clan's office can enter the palace to verify!"
"I have no objection anymore!"
Speaking of this, Hu Yi couldn't say anything else. Even if he had a good relationship with Bai Minghe, he would not give in to such a major issue in the minds of the Ming officials.
Next, we were given a marriage and a New Year's wedding. Because Bai Minghe married two princesses, they were both righteous wives.
The congratulations were connected, and many officials came to congratulate Bai Minghe. Those who could not get close to Bai Minghe also found Bai Chongyuan and Bai Chongxi.
Gao Gu also smiled and congratulated Bai Minghe. After all, even political enemies should congratulate him for something like a big wedding.
Next, it seems that the matter should be discussed.
But still rewards.
I was awarded Yu Qian, the Minister of War. He was surrendered to three cities, and the Lvzon was stable and eliminated the siege of the four seas. He was granted the title of Zhenyuan Bo, the Prince Taibao, and the first-rank official. He was rewarded with horses in the palace, a house, and a stone of gold...
Listening to Eunuch Cai receiving the reward, Zhu Qiyu sighed in his heart that it was great to have silver. Especially when he heard this gold stone, Zhu Qiyu had a very wonderful feeling in his heart. When he planned to change the prince, he finally squeezed out a sum of silver from the inner treasury, and the rewards he gave to many officials were fifty taels and one hundred taels of silver.
The more I hear this reward of gold, the more I feel excited.
Yu Qian rewarded him, and the cabinet and the six ministries all gave some small rewards, one stone of silver. The navy, governor and inspector in Guangdong, Fujian and Nanjing were rewarded. Then he rewarded two governors of Datong and Xuanfu and three governors. Next, generals, lieutenants and soldiers at all levels were rewarded.
The worst soldier is also thirty taels of silver.
Before the blink of an eye, the total amount of 500 stones of silver was rewarded. How much is the 500 stone of silver? 800,000 taels.
Zhu Qiyu sat on the imperial throne and listened quietly. At the beginning of his ascension, 800,000 taels of silver would definitely make him starve to death and not save himself. Thinking about the time when the battle of defense of the capital, if Jin Lian, the Minister of Revenue, hadn't done a good job, the battle of defense of the capital might not have been able to end.
At present, it's only five hundred stones of silver.
Just pull dozens of carriages from Baiminghe to the capital. Thinking about the fact that Baiminghe still has 20,000 stones of silver on the boat, Zhu Qiyu was very confident and stood up with a chair: "Yu Aiqing, can you reach Yinshan before the end of next year, and rebuild Longtian!"
"My teacher, receive the order!" Yu Qian felt really uncomfortable.
Yinshan means taking down all areas with abundant water and plants in Hetao.
You should know that the original strategic idea was to use Hetao as a buffer zone, but now it will become all occupied. Do you still need to spend manpower and material resources to build all three surrendered cities into fortresses? Taking all Hetao is not just a matter of Xuanda Prefectures, but it is related to the joint operations of the three provinces of Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningxia, and the nine guards of the Ministry of War.
Well, I have received such a heavy reward, so I must not say that it is not possible at this time. The Emperor of Ming Dynasty was on the verge of happiness.
Even if you have different ideas, wait until you leave the court and discuss it privately.
Yu Qian's other idea was even heavier at this time, that is, how much silver and steel could be squeezed out from Baiminghe.
"Retreat the court. Tomorrow the grand dynasty meeting, discuss the issue of maintaining honest money. I think that all officials who are allowed to come to Beijing to report their duties can be present, and everyone can have ideas. Even the officials in the capital can also select several representatives to come, how much money can be maintained and enough to spend."
After Zhu Qiyu finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Gao Gu was stunned. It was over. Is this money to raise money for the six officials of the Ministry of Finance held a night meeting at Baiminghe Mansion last night? Isn’t this a joke?
No! Gao Gu glanced at Bai Minghe and thought to himself that the Emperor of Ming Dynasty looked like Bai Minghe's way. He first gave many benefits. When almost all the officials were thinking about it, they suddenly took out a machete. It was really hard to say that the knife would cut to the point.
What is the final move? No matter how Gao Gu thought, he could not think of what the last move was.
Hu Yi yawned and said to himself: "Go back to your house to sleep." After walking a few steps, he smiled at Bai Minghe: "Minghe, I'm afraid that many of the goods on the ship today will be transported to Beijing. Tonight, ask the chefs in your house to prepare it and go to your house for dinner today."
"Ah, huh!" Bai Minghe's answer made many people laugh.
When officials left the palace, many low-level officials could no longer help but start discussing the issue of maintaining clean money. Especially the officials who were originally very honest were even more excited. They could be good officials or have a wealth.
What else can compare to this one.
"Bai Minghe, don't you go back to your house?" Yu Qian walked to Bai Minghe's side.
"Mr. Yu wants to ask me how much money I have in my hand to call. I will answer you a few days later. I will settle the accounts with the merchants in the past two days. Now I can't go back. I want to go to Donghuamen to check the tributes transported into the palace. Jindajian is probably waiting for me there." Bai Minghe said his guess very directly.
Yu Qian nodded: "Go to your house for dinner tonight, and I will talk about money in a few days."
After Yu Qian left, Bai Minghe greeted several officials again. His father and second uncle came to him: "This long live marriage is a big deal, what preparations should be made at home."
"My father worked hard on this matter, and Mr. Yuan has discussed it with the manager of the palace. Gold, silver and jewelry are not a problem. It can be said that there are things in the palace, and we have them at home. However, in the end, we will have to look at the opinions of the palace. This matter is a bit troublesome. I don't know if it was the prince who presided over the ceremony, and the clan mansion will also go to. The most troublesome thing at the moment is not the wedding, but I want to meet the two empress dowagers and the queen of the current dynasty!"
Bai Minghe didn’t need to explain, Bai Chongxi knew how troublesome it would be to meet the two empress dowagers.
Chapter completed!
