Returning to his hometown where he had lived for more than twenty years, Zhu Di was very happy and in high spirits. He should have gone straight to the palace, but Zhu Di was so excited that he walked around everywhere. Accompanied by officials such as Qiu Fu and Luo Qian,
I purposely wandered around the streets of Peking for a long time.
Seeing that the streets of Beijing have become much wider, with row upon row of residential buildings, many houses have been built in areas that were once empty. In the streets and alleys, hook-up tiles, taverns and teahouses have also sprung up. The whole city of Beijing has taken on a new look and is more prosperous.
Zhu Di was very happy.
He smiled and said to Qiu Fu and others: "When I first conquered Beiping, Beiping's wealth, silk and population were plundered by the Yuan people when they fled north. It was extremely depressed. After more than 20 years of construction, it has improved again, but it has never been as prosperous as it is today.
Later, I Jingnan launched an army, and the city of Beijing suffered from man-made disasters many times, and the city became depressed again. In just two years, it became as prosperous as it is today, and all the ministers are indispensable!"
Qiu Fu hurriedly said: "The emperor's praise is not the credit of the veteran and others. Since the emperor promoted Peiping to Beijing, established the city, and moved residents from various places to fill the population of Beijing, Beijing has begun to regain prosperity and become what it is today. The veteran just
He is a rough man who has nothing to do but train soldiers and fight in wars. Even if there is some hard work in running the place, it is only the skill of Master Luo and other civil servants!"
Luo Qian smiled and waved his hands, showing humility in his busy work.
The four seasons in the north are distinct, and the air is not as wet and humid as in the south. Zhu Di joined Peiping before he was a weak crown. He has lived here longer than in his hometown and is very adapted to the northern climate. As soon as he arrived here, he felt refreshed and energetic.
There was plenty of food, and it was especially comfortable compared to the south. I didn’t want to go back and rest for a while, so I just wandered around the streets, giving advice and talking and laughing from time to time.
While walking, Zhu Di suddenly remembered something and asked Qiu Fu: "I heard that Yang Xu has taken all the captured Tatar soldiers to Beijing?"
Qiu Fu quickly glanced at Luo Qian and replied: "Yes! Tens of thousands of captured soldiers and dozens of captured generals are now being held in the barracks on the outskirts of Beijing. They are only waiting to present the prisoner ceremony to the emperor.
Then they will be resettled. Will the Emperor go and see them?"
Zhu Di was really interested in going to take a look, but he was the emperor now, and he had his own rules for every move. If Yu Zun deigned and went to the barracks to watch the surrender of prisoners with great interest, the officials accompanying him and those in Beijing would probably chatter endlessly.
, couldn't help shaking his head and laughing: "I won't go. When Yang Xu arrives in Beijing and presents the prisoners, I will naturally be able to see them. Well, how do you plan to deal with these prisoners?"
Luo Qian then stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, for the captured generals, we should follow the laws of the imperial court. Those who should be imprisoned should be imprisoned, and those who should be beheaded should be beheaded. As for those captured soldiers, I plan to disperse them according to the example of Liaodong.
Resettlement, registration and naturalization. Those who were our subjects in the Ming Dynasty were bound to be uneasy at first, but with careful supervision by the local government, as time went by, they took root and naturally no longer had different thoughts."
Zhu Di nodded repeatedly after hearing this: "Okay! This method is very good! Look at the people in Beijing like me, Zhang Wang, Li Zhao, all over the world. Their ancestors are not the Xianbei, the Xiongnu, the Khitan, the Japanese, the Jurchens, and the remnants of the Bohai ethnic groups.
They lived in different places with us Han people, intermarried and multiplied, learned Chinese, wore Han clothes, changed their surnames to Chinese, and were born in Han areas, and now they are Han people.
In the whole world, is it the land of the king. On the shore of the land, is it the ministers of the king. I own the world, and my mind should be as broad as the world. If I cannot tolerate them, how can they be willing to be my people? Let’s settle them like this.
This is a good way to deal with it! Haha, this Yang Xu, I really underestimated him, Yun Wen and Yun Wu are really my best help."
Luo Qian smiled and said: "What the emperor said is that Yang Xu is indeed an official of the imperial court. I dare not hide anything from the emperor. Yang Xu is still young, and the various tribes in Liaodong live together, and there are strong enemies outside. The situation is very complicated, so I only have to be good at writing."
Those who are not good at martial arts will not be able to rule Liaodong! Those who are good at martial arts but not proficient in literature will surely come back in vain. When the emperor first sent Yang Xu to manage Liaodong, I was very worried, but unexpectedly..., the emperor has a keen eye like a torch, and I am sincerely convinced!"
Zhu Di laughed loudly after hearing this.
Chen Shou, who participated in politics in Beijing, smiled and said: "Officials in Beijing, big and small, are most aware of Yang Xu's every move in Liaodong, so they also admire them the most. After Yang Xu arrived in Liaodong, the first thing he did was not to defend foreigners, but to
It is to vigorously develop the economy of Liaodong, open up commerce and farmland, and develop industry and animal husbandry. People of all ethnic groups in Liaodong benefit from it and regard Yang Xu as the Buddha of thousands of families.
Because of this united will, we won great victories against the Tatars in both battles. The various ethnic groups in Liaodong who surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, including the three guards of the Uuliangha, were originally rebellious and often caused troubles, causing local officials great headaches.
But now they are very well-behaved. Yang Xu conducted a strategy in Liaodong. He first benefited the people economically and won the hearts of the people. He also defeated the Tatars in two battles and killed the son of the Tatar Grand Master Arutai, establishing his military power.
The shogunate officials were set up to control their government... Today's Liaodong is very different from before. Today's Liaodong is completely in the hands of the imperial court."
Zhu Di nodded slightly and said nothing.
When Zhang Lingyi, the minister of the Beijing Ministry of Finance, saw the emperor's praise of Duke Fu, he also cheerfully joked: "The emperor praised Beijing for its great changes and its new atmosphere. In fact, the changes here are far behind the rapid changes in Liaodong. Now
In Liaodong, martial arts were at their peak, and culture and education were popular. Military generals all expected to make military exploits for the court and secure territories. However, leaders of various clans sent their children to government schools to receive royal education. The soldiers and civilians in Liaodong all respected and obeyed Yang Xu.
, no one has ever been able to achieve this great situation of being able to respond to everything at once!"
Zhu Di said "Huh", and Zeng Liang, a doctor in the Ministry of Rites in Beijing, smiled and said: "I remember one thing. Yang Xuxuan promoted Liaodong and became famous. When the tribes who originally submitted to North Korea saw this, they all joined me.
North Korea was so angry that it sent envoys to Liaodong many times to negotiate with Yang Xu, but they all came back with weak points..."
Before he finished speaking, someone next to him pulled his sleeve. If Zeng Liang noticed something, he immediately shut up.
Zhu Di glanced at him, smiled faintly, and said, "Okay, I'm a little tired. Let's go back to the palace to rest."
Zhu Di's camp was the Prince's Mansion of Yan when he was King of Yan. It was the place where he had lived for more than 20 years, and he lived comfortably.
As soon as they arrived at the camp, the ministers resigned and dispersed. The emperor's entourage was busy arranging everyone's residence. The accompanying eunuch was a former member of the Yan Palace and was familiar with the original arrangements, so he arranged for the emperor and empress according to the old rules.
and everyone’s residence.
When Zhu Di resigned and dispersed, he left Qiu Fu and Luo Qian alone. He still wanted to ask clearly about the current detailed situation of Beijing and its surrounding counties. While leaving people behind, Zhu Di deliberately scanned the
In the eyes of the ministers, Tang Jie, the official of the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion in Beijing, also stayed behind.
Tang Jie held a high official position in Beijing, so he was always in front of Zhu Di. Zhu Di had already seen his lonely face. Although he forced a smile when he greeted him, he even looked uncomfortable when he heard people talking about Yang Xu, so he secretly said
Pay attention.
When he returned to the palace, he first asked Qiu Fu and Luo Qian to wait in the outer hall, then called Tang Jie in alone. After he had just finished saluting, he suddenly asked: "Tang Jie, I saw that you were accompanying me all the way, and you were depressed. Are you okay?"
What's on your mind?"
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Xia Xun passed Shanhaiguan, and the large group of people was turning towards Beijing.
After passing Lulong that day, suddenly a man with a lot of travels came rushing towards him, and he was quickly taken into Xia Xun's car.
This man's name is Wang Rufeng, he is also a member of Metallurg, but he used to be a pirate in Shuangyu.
Among Xia Xun's original team, many members came from the Three Guards of Yanshan. There is no doubt about the loyalty and ability of these people, but they were the emperor's old troops, so most of them were left in the Feilong Secret Agent, and Qianlong's main
Most of the members are his close relatives who were trained on Yangjiao Island in eastern Zhejiang. Now Xia Xun wants to find out the news in Beijing. For safety reasons, he uses another group of people who have nothing to do with the Yanshan Three Guards.
"My lord, the emperor has arrived in Beijing. Qiu Fu and Luo Qian led the officials in Beijing to greet..."
Wang Rufeng carefully reported the news in Beijing to Xia Xun. Most of the members of Qianlong Secret Agent only knew that their leader was named Xia Xun. Only a few of them knew that their boss’s true identity was Yang Xu, the Duke of Fuguo.
Those who know his true identity are naturally his direct descendants and absolute confidants.
Xia Xun listened quietly, interrupting to ask a few questions from time to time.
He came here to see him, firstly, to ask the emperor for instructions and report on Liaodong affairs; secondly, to claim merit and receive rewards on behalf of the Liaodong soldiers. Originally, there was no need to be so cautious. But in Kaiyuan, he beheaded Tang Jie's son, and he already knew that Tang Jie
Jie is a high-ranking official in the Fifth Army Governor's Office in Beijing and Qiu Fu's absolute confidant, so it is impossible not to pay attention to his movements.
He had an old grudge with Qiu Fu, and now he killed Tang Jie's son. If he hadn't been wary of Tang Jie hanging around under his nose, he wouldn't be here today. Tang Jie's move
As soon as he made a move, he had already been under his surveillance, including Tang Jie running around Liaodong, collecting all kinds of information, and welcoming officials for communication after returning to Beijing.
However, it was impossible for him to find out some detailed information. For example, what Tang Jie said when he met him; after the emperor arrived in Beijing, the officials in Beijing praised him with ulterior motives. He would not know these things.
You may know. His intelligence agency is not that perverted and can penetrate into any situation and find out any information.
If he wanted to know more detailed information, it was not impossible. Among the officials accompanying the Northern Patrol, there were officials who were good friends with him. Among the eunuchs around the emperor, there were also people he had befriended over the years. It was just that
If you want to get information from them, you have to wait until he arrives in Beijing. If you just send someone there casually, it is impossible for them to tell you the truth.
After listening to Wang Rufeng's report, Xia Xun did not hear any very critical news, so he said: "Qiu Fu was demoted to Beijing because of me, and Tang Jie's son was beheaded because of me. They have resentment towards me."
, you don’t need to guess, you will definitely say some slanderous words about me in front of the emperor. Haha, it doesn’t matter, a man’s heart is magnanimous enough, but he doesn’t necessarily have to be an upright gentleman, and I, Yang Xu, am not a persimmon I just have to pinch!”
He knocked on the car window and ordered outside: "Speed up your journey and enter Beijing before sunset!"
