Chapter five hundred and seventy-ninth jade seal is not as good as gold seal
Zhu Yuanzhang was suddenly so interested in the Imperial Seal. Zhang Ximeng was still a little hesitant. He didn't just show up for no reason, right?
"My lord, this jade seal is big or small. If there is really a good way, I am willing to make it perfect without any regrets. Please let me know clearly."
Zhu Yuanzhang looked solemn, as if he had some concerns. Song Lian saw this and planned to resign. He was an ordinary minister and it was better not to know so much.
But Lao Zhu didn't let him go, "Scholar Song, you should also listen!"
Then Zhu Yuanzhang glared at Zhang Ximeng and snorted: "This matter comes from Mr. Zhang."
"I?"
"Yes!" Lao Zhu hummed: "When we attacked Jinling, the queen gave birth to the emperor's eldest son at Chen Di's house. What did you do?"
"I!"
Zhang Ximeng was suddenly stunned. What did he do? He gave Zhu Biao a piece of jade! It also cost him a lot of salary, and the account was not even settled!
Lao Zhu snorted coldly: "The prince has it, but we, the father, don't have it? Could it be that our virtues are not enough? Not enough to rule the world?"
Zhang Ximeng was dumbfounded by the question. It really makes sense. He started with the younger one, but now he wants to double it with the older one. No wonder he asked me for the jade seal?
Zhang Ximeng thought for a while and couldn't help but ask: "What do you plan to do, my lord?"
Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while and said: "Sir, the prince was born with a jade in his mouth. This arrangement is really great. It would be tacky if only farmers found it and came to sell it. Do you think this will work? Let's go back this time and sell it in a certain place."
There, suddenly thunder fell from the sky, and a box popped out, which happened to contain the national jade seal. The auspicious clouds and auspicious energy, a treasure given by God?"
Zhang Ximeng couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard Lao Zhu's description, "Master, if this happens, you won't be ordered by heaven again, wouldn't you just turn back?"
"This..." Zhu Yuanzhang felt discouraged for a while and couldn't help but said: "Yang Xian, after all, he is not thinking fully, and he almost let us slap him in the face. How come he can't even think about this matter when he is in charge of the imperial court?"
It turned out to be him!
Zhang Ximeng secretly laughed in his heart, it was so easy for Li Shan not to commit suicide, why did Yang Xian jump out?
Could it be that seeing Li Shanchang offending many people and losing points among the officials, Yang Xian couldn't wait to climb up. There were people below to support him, and all he needed was Zhu Yuanzhang's nod?
For a moment, Zhang Ximeng thought of many possibilities, but in the end, he just smiled indifferently. This method was not very good!
"My lord, with the help of destiny, the foundation is not solid, and it is not in line with the foundation of our Ming Dynasty. As for the imperial seal, it is just a seal left by Qin Shihuang. It is said that it was cut out with He's jade, and He's jade
It is just one of the two treasures of the Spring and Autumn Period. It is not necessarily how precious it is. I would like to tell you that Dayu's Nine Cauldrons are probably still better than He's Bi."
"Dayu Jiuding?" Lao Zhu said in surprise: "Mr. Zhang, can you still find Jiuding?"
Zhang Ximeng said with a smile: "It's hard for me to say this, but I think my lord can imitate Dayu, collect red gold from all over the world, and cast a treasure seal as a symbol of the Ming Dynasty!"
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned slightly, thought for a while and said: "Sir's suggestion is not bad, but as the saying goes, gold has a price, but jade is priceless. The First Emperor has passed down priceless jade for thousands of years. If we only get a gold one, I'm afraid it won't work!
"
Zhang Ximeng smiled slightly, "But what if this gold comes from all over the world?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was slightly stunned. Zhang Ximeng continued to explain: "I proposed to your majesty that to restore order in China, if all the vassals were to donate gold, the gold from the mountains and rivers where the sun and the moon were directed would be melted together to make the Ming Dynasty.
As a national treasure seal, it seems that it can be compared with He's Bi, right?"
After Zhang Ximeng finished speaking, Song Lian on the side immediately said: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Zhang's proposal is really great! Such a treasure seal can rival the Jiuding of Dayu, and it can be called the most precious treasure of the Ming Dynasty and the seal of China!"
Lao Zhu fell into deep thought, gathering the world's gold, gathering the world's treasures, and casting the treasure seal together. This is a good proposal, "It's just that it's not easy to do this!"
Zhu Yuanzhang has long known that Mongolia is vast. In addition to the Yuan Dynasty, there are many vassals in the west. And outside Mongolia, there are countless countries.
The mountains and rivers are vast and boundless, and there are even many unknown islands and countries overseas... I think most of these places will bring gold.
Logically speaking, we have to find it, take it back to Ming Dynasty, and cast the golden seal together.
The more Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it, the more he felt that this was a conspiracy by Zhang Ximeng, and that this kid was plotting against him again!
"Sir, I'm afraid that collecting red gold is fake, but overseas trade is real, right?"
Zhang Ximeng laughed and did not deny it, "My lord, in the final analysis, the jade seal of the country is just an object. Qin Shihuang unified the six countries, which made the jade seal valuable. If my lord can establish a prosperous age far beyond the Han and Tang Dynasties, surpassing the Yuan Dynasty
The territory of Jun Lin Yu covers eight wastelands. When the time comes, it will be extraordinary to take the initiative to designate anything at will."
Zhang Ximeng looked at Song Lian again and said with a smile: "In my opinion, in the hands of the First Emperor and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the jade seal of the country is certainly the most precious treasure in the world, but if it falls into the hands of the subjugated king, it will only cause various problems.
The party covets and robs it, but it doesn’t bring much dignity at all! In the final analysis, there is the Mingjun Holy Lord first, and then there is the national jade seal. It is clear at a glance which of the two is more important!"
After all, it depends on the person!
For example, if Mr. Zhang goes out in civilian clothes, he will only talk about simplicity. If he goes out as an ordinary person, he will probably think, does this guy have no money?
Song Lian was secretly happy in his heart. Prime Minister Zhang was trying to persuade his majesty to do something and not to worry about unexpected things... It is also the right thing for a minister to persuade the king. It is rare for him to be so clever as Prime Minister Zhang.
Moreover, Prime Minister Zhang has always regarded himself as a humble social official, but he never expected that he could do such a thing... Song Lian couldn't help but smile and said: "Your Majesty, I think what Prime Minister Zhang said is quite reasonable. If nothing else, if Song Zhezong's
The jade seal is real, but it still did not prevent the demise of the Zhao and Song Dynasties. After Jingkang, the jade seal passed around and fell into the hands of the Yuan Dynasty. Now the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty has been in the hands of his majesty, and he is just a prisoner. Even if he has the real jade seal, he can
how?"
Lao Zhu nodded vigorously and said with a smile: "Now I have made it clear, we still have to expand our territory and make contributions, and we can't slack off day and night!"
Zhu Yuanzhang added: "But since the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty was mentioned, you should accompany us to Gongde Camp to see what happened to those people!"
Zhang Ximeng nodded quickly. To be honest, he was also a little curious. He still didn't know what happened to the iron pot now?
The monarch and his entourage arrived at the Gongde Camp. Coincidentally, the place was in chaos. Timur, Qian Tang, and several people from the Gongwei Division were interrogating one by one.
When Zhu Yuanzhang arrived, Qian Tang immediately came over, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and introduced the situation to Zhu Yuanzhang.
Not long ago, there was a poisoning of eucalyptus.
Someone poured medicine into the Iron Pot Emperor's bowl. After Iron Pot had eaten, he suffered from vomiting and diarrhea and turned blue. Fortunately, the condition was not serious and he was rescued.
As a result, the Iron Pot Emperor cried loudly and begged, saying that he should just kill him. He didn't want to live anymore. Scholars can't be killed, let alone the emperor.
Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly: "I, Daming, have always been upright. Even if I wanted to kill him, I would not use such a despicable method. What is going on? Is there any conclusion?"
Qian Tang immediately said: "Replying to Your Majesty, I found something dark in the bowl, which seemed to be a mushroom. I asked a few more people to inquire, and found that next to the latrine, there was a growth... It seemed to be a dog.
Urine coating.”
"Dog piss?"
"Well, maybe someone thought it was a poisonous fungus and put it in the dish. It didn't taste very good. It was just dysentery and no death."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, "I see, then have you found out who did it?"
"It's been found out, and Yesu is the most likely suspect. Someone saw him picking dog urine and moss, and someone else reminded him that he can't eat it because it's poisonous!"
Lao Zhu took a deep breath and said, "That's it, bring him here!"
Not long after, Yesu was brought over, and other people also followed. These people had sullen faces and solemn expressions, and they had finally reached this point.
Someone has long been planning to kill the emperor to preserve dignity.
But when it was actually delivered, no one dared to take action.
Yesu is a good guy after all!
I actually thought of using mushrooms to kill people, but it was a pity that the amount used was too small, and the success fell short!
"Kill me! I died for Dayuan, and I deserved to die!" Yesu raised his head, which was a bit tragic.
Lao Zhu looked at him, then turned to ask Zhang Ximeng, "Sir, how should he be punished for poisoning and harming people like this?"
Zhang Ximeng said: "If you poison someone to death, you will naturally have to pay with your life... But if you don't poison someone to death, it won't be a death penalty. Maybe you can be sentenced to a few years in prison. But now that he is in prison, he will be considered to have committed a major negligence while serving his sentence."
,How about extending the sentence to five years?”
Qian Tang hurriedly bowed and said: "It is very fair for Prime Minister Zhang to deal with this... Do you think I can clean the latrine quickly as a punishment, and at the same time do the daily hard work for the victim?"
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, "Indeed it should be! That's it!"
Yesu was dumbfounded. He yelled anxiously, "Kill me! I assassinated the emperor! It's an unforgivable crime and a heinous crime! Why don't you kill me? Just cut me into pieces!"
He yelled heartbreakingly, and escaping with his life was even more uncomfortable than killing him!
First, Timur took a big step forward and sneered: "What emperor? The one in front of you is the emperor of tomorrow! The one who is still vomiting and having diarrhea in the barracks is just an ordinary person in the merit camp. His name is
The iron pot is no different from you people!"
Yesu roared angrily, "No, it's different. He is the Emperor of Dayuan. He should die for his country and cannot live to be ruined by you. I am thinking about Dayuan!"
At this time, a military doctor came out with an iron pot on his hands. He was pale and staggering. He walked up to Yesu, suddenly stretched out his hand, used all his strength, and slapped Yesu hard in the mouth!
"Your Majesty, you, why don't you know my painstaking efforts?"
"Bah! If you really think of me as the emperor, how come you don't die when you assassinate my father? Wouldn't it be better if you ate all those poisonous mushrooms? Hypocrisy! Shameless! Get out and clean the latrine!"
At this moment, the iron pot actually showed some signs of wisdom...
