On weekdays, Xia Xun does not need to go to court during the small court meeting, but on the fifth day of the morning, he has to attend the court meeting. The next day is the big court meeting. Xia Xun and Ming'er have already made plans and decided to go to court tomorrow.
He asked for leave from the emperor and left the capital to go to Shuangyu Island.
In the morning of the next day, Xia Xun also got up early and rushed to the palace. Today in the morning of the morning, Emperor Yongle ordered several more important things. The first was to rewrite the "Records of Taizu". The "Records of Taizu" were compiled by the Ministry of Rites in the first year of Jianwen.
The minister Dong Lun and others revised it once, but Zhu Di did not recognize everything in the Jianwen Dynasty. Due to political needs, he needed to revise a "Record of Taizu".
Zhu Di announced at that time that Li Jinglong, the Duke of Cao, and Ru Yu, Minister of the Ministry of War, would be the chief officials, deputy supervisors, and Shi Jie Jin would be the chief officials. Wang Jing, a Hanlin scholar, and Li Zhigang, the right minister, would read Huang Huai, compile Li Guan, and others.
When he compiled the Official Records and re-edited the "Records of Taizu", he did not recognize the four years of Jianwen's rule, but the deeds of these four years could not be erased out of thin air. Since the four years of Emperor Jianwen became the 32nd to 30th years of Hongwu
Five years later, some ministers suggested that the deeds of the Jianwen Dynasty be appended to the back of "Records of Taizu". Zhu Di thought about it briefly and agreed.
Subsequently, Zhu Di announced the reopening of Huayi Hall, Wuying Hall, Wenyuan Pavilion, and Dongge Grand Scholars from the time of Taizu to prepare advisors. He ordered his attendants to read Jie Jin and compile Yang Rong's entry into the cabinet. The two ministers'
Although the official position of rank is under the six ministries, there are no official subordinates and no jurisdiction over the affairs of the departments, but they are real ministers of the emperor. When Zhu Di revealed that at least four to five people would be selected to supplement the cabinet, all the officials became excited.
.
The ministers who compiled "Records of Taizu" were, without exception, all former ministers of Jianwen. The two ministers who joined the cabinet were also former ministers of Jianwen.
Chao Wenwu received a shot in the arm. In the past few days, Chen Ying and Ji Gang were arresting people so vigorously that everyone was in danger. Many people were worried about a political disaster like the Hongwu period, which involved countless people and lasted for several years.
Zhu Di's political signal obviously meant that the purge was about to end, and all the officials secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The two ministers who entered the cabinet were both young and junior officials with real talents and knowledge, so they were meritocratic.
This move has also given rise to fervent hopes among many officials who rely on their talents and knowledge, secretly gearing up to win seats in the cabinet.
Zhu Di was obviously not only good at fighting, but also a political master who knew how to make a big difference. Through these two things, he not only easily influenced the court's next move, diverted the public's attention, but also easily mobilized people's hearts. This
This is the best way to govern a big country like cooking small dishes.
Later, Zhu Di ordered the Ministry of Household Affairs to check the number of households without land in various parts of Shanxi and moved to Peiping in batches. Due to four years of war, the population of Beiping Prefecture dropped sharply. After Zhu Di took control of Jinling, he took his troops to the south, and Peiping
The labor force has been even reduced. Now that Beiping Prefecture has been upgraded to Beijing, it is second only to Jinling and Fengyang, the central capital. The policy will naturally be more tilted.
Zhu Di decreed that landless farmers from Shanxi who migrated to Beijing should be given banknotes on a per-household basis to purchase cattle, grain seeds and farm tools. The relocated people were exempted from taxes for the first five years, and taxation began after five years. At the same time, from South Zhili, Suzhou, etc.
A group of wealthy households from ten counties, Zhejiang and other nine provinces were selected to move to Beijing. In addition, regulations were formulated to banish convicts to tenants, and convicts with criminal offenses and below were sent to reclaim farmland in Beijing.
Supervising local officials to resettle relocated people, disbursing resettlement fees, supervising provincial officials to select wealthy households to move to Beijing, and banishing criminal prisoners to Beijing to open up wasteland. This series of matters is naturally the responsibility of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Chen Ying noticed that the emperor had stopped the purge and stepped up construction.
I was originally worried that I would have to step aside after losing my glory for two days, but I felt relieved after hearing the emperor's instructions.
As for Ji Gang, he has no worries. Through the purge, he has initially established authority for himself, and the next step should be the consolidation stage. Besides, because of Jing Qing's assassination, although the emperor vigorously eliminated Jianwen's old ministers, he wanted to win people's hearts.
However, he had great doubts about their loyalty, and he had been ordered to strengthen the supervision of the officials.
With just this order, he became a knife hanging over the heads of all officials. Who dares to ignore his discipline like Luo Kedi of the Jianwen Dynasty?
Going back to the source, the people who are most grateful to Jing Qing are probably Chen Ying and Ji Gang.
Only these three major events were promulgated and discussed. It was almost time for the morning court. When it was about to leave the court at noon, Zhu Di's smile faded and he suddenly said solemnly: "I have a few words of sincerity to say to Jing Nan today.
The heroes speak!"
There was a moment of silence in the hall, and all the civil and military officials pricked up their ears, especially the heroes of the Peking Department. They were always more relaxed than the old Jianwen ministers in the court. At this moment, they were startled and gradually became more serious. For a while, the hall was completely silent.
Zhu Di said solemnly: "In the past, monarchs who created the world with martial arts must rely on the support of their generals. However, in the end, it was often difficult to protect the generals. Why? Some people often say that this is because the emperors were cunning, their lackeys were cooked, and they slaughtered the powerful.
Meritorious ministers, in order to stabilize the clan. Is this really the case? There are many ways for the emperor to support his meritorious ministers and weaken their power. Does he have to use killing methods to leave a lasting infamy?"
Zhu Di's eyes slowly scanned the officials, and the officials in the Peking Department became a little uneasy.
Zhu Di said: "Has anyone ever checked whether those generals who were difficult to save were arrogant and perverted the law, or whether they were arrogant because of their favor? The monarch responds to the gods. Once he takes the throne, he is not just the monarch of the heroes, he is the whole
The monarch of the world and the whole world are the subjects of the monarch and cannot be biased.
Therefore, heroes who break the law must be severely punished in accordance with the law. I, Emperor Hongwu Gao, legislate the constitution in order to make future generations abide by it. If the heroes violate the constitution and do not obey the punishment, they will naturally be killed according to the law. Even if they are
No matter how close you are, you won’t be forgiven!
I have heard a lot of news in the past few days. Some of our heroes who were responsible for the Jingnan War were proud of their achievements and insulted the old ministers of the court. Some of them suddenly ascended to high positions and were greedy. They thought that the mansion I had built was too small, and some of them occupied civilian residences and expanded them illegally.
There are some; there are those who accept bribes from deposed convicts, to manage the superiors and downs, and to steal opportunities for profit; there are those who form cliques for personal gain, and to win over courtiers..."
Being a good general who is able to conquer battles does not mean that his personal character is flawless. Zhu Di's words were all pointed. All the officials from the Peking Department who were pointed out by him with similar behavior felt awe-inspiring in their hearts. These
They are the most unscrupulous people in the world. They rely on their own merits and regard the old ministers of Jianwen as being inferior to them. They boss them around even though they are insignificant. There are many people who want to extort benefits.
As for all kinds of illegal behaviors, they do exist, some are light and some serious, some are big and some are small. There are very few officials who keep themselves clean and do not get any undeserved benefits. Probably only Xia Xun feels that he is not ashamed. But after hearing what Zhu Di said
If you think about it carefully, is it really true?
Wang's consort said that the house was borrowed, but what would others think? Would they believe that he borrowed the house from Wang's consort or accepted it as a gift? Xia Xun suddenly realized that since Zhu Di had been in power, even though he had been constantly vigilant
He himself was actually a little confused. If he were in another situation, would he accept the King's consort's kindness so lightly?
In particular, forming a party for personal gain and winning over courtiers are the most serious crimes. Could the emperor be talking about me? Yesterday I advised the emperor to stop the purge. On the same day, someone knelt down in front of my house to ask for help. If someone told the emperor about this,
, the words were slightly ambiguous and deliberately did not mention the time sequence. What would the emperor think?
Not only can't you break the law, even if you are upright in your heart, you still have to be skillful in doing things in the officialdom. Because others can't see your heart, they can see your behavior!
Zhu Di's warning sounded in everyone's heart differently, but as soon as he ascended to the world, he promptly issued this edict to his heroes, which undoubtedly played a very important role. Few of the heroes who contributed to the Jingnan War ended well.
, has a lot to do with Zhu Di’s sincere words today.
Zhu Di's voice echoed loudly in the Golden Palace: "Today's words are just a slap in the face. Everything that happened before is considered to be something I have not said. You support me and accompany me through life and death, leading to the world today. I sincerely hope that all the heroes will
You can live long, be rich, and rest with your country. But if someone is stubborn and commits evil, don't blame me for my lack of virtue and kindness!"
After the dynasty was over, all the civil and military officials dispersed one after another with their own concerns. Those who entered the cabinet and took on important tasks such as compiling the "Records of Taizu" were very proud. Among them, Jie Jin was the most important. There were two major events.
His participation showed that he was highly regarded. As soon as he came out of the Golden Palace, he was surrounded by his colleagues to congratulate him. Seeing his beaming look, he was also in high spirits.
Some of the heroes who had done some illegal things recently were thinking about how to make amends and make up for their mistakes. Xia Xun deliberately slowed down and walked at the end. After much thought, he still had to bite the bullet and go to the emperor.
"Going to Shuangyu?"
"Yes, when I rescued the crown prince and the two princes from Jinling, it was with the help of Shuangyu bandits. At that time, I promised them on behalf of the emperor that they would never forget their contribution. I heard that the emperor was very dissatisfied with the Japanese pirates who invaded the border areas.
Yue, I want to teach them a lesson. These pirates are not only good at sea combat, especially those who often sail far away. Their familiarity with the ocean is a hundred times better than our navy. If these pirates can be recruited and reorganized a little, then the emperor will have a team that can conquer the sea.
A naval force that is good at fighting."
"Well..."
Zhu Di stroked his beard and began to think deeply. Xia Xun added: "When I was fleeing with the princess, General Yi Shaozong of the Thousand Households in Xiangshan was fighting fiercely with the Japanese pirates on the beach. Before his death, General Yi also said that it was because of the Shuangyu pirates' attack on the pirates.
The Japanese pirates restrained the people along the coast from being further harmed. It can be seen that although these pirates are lawless people, they still have a sincere heart in front of foreigners. Instead of encircling and suppressing them, the emperor would rather educate them."
"Um!"
Zhu Di nodded and glanced at him: "Your family members are all on the island now, right?"
"yes!"
Xia Xun smiled, and instead of being secretive to this shrewd boss, he told the truth: "I am favored by the emperor, granted the title of Duke, and am in a very popular position. I am... very proud. My parents are both dead, and I
I had a falling out with my clan, but only two good wives stayed with me and stayed by my side. The ancients said: Wealth and honor do not return to their hometown, just as they walk at night in brocade clothes. Now I want to take back the two ladies in splendor and enjoy the majestic grace of the emperor.
.”
Zhu Di smiled: "I'm afraid, this is your biggest goal, right?"
Xia Xunran said: "Your Majesty..."
Zhu Di waved his hand: "Haha, this is human nature. Okay, you go ahead and ask Chen Xuan to allocate a few warships from the Navy to you. Since you are going, you will be in glory. Don't let the prestige of my court be weakened."
, ruining the face of your auxiliary Duke."
