Chapter 103: Help Your Majesty to become Emperor Taizu!
Four and a half regimental battalions were newly trained, totaling 70,000 people.
It's impossible to give everything to Fang Ying.
The cabinet issued a list, Gong Yongji, Yu Shan, Li Xi, Zhang Gu, Huang Shijun, Feng Guanqing, Xiang Zhong, Cao Yi, Shi Ju, Jiao Li, Tian Li, Chen Wang, Zhang Tong and others.
This list is relatively reliable.
Gong Yongji worked with Yu Qian to ensure that Zhu Qiyu ascended the throne. He served as an official for more than 40 years and as a soldier for 20 years. It was more than enough to serve as a commander of a regiment and battalion.
Although Yu Shan opposed the appointment of Zhu Jianji as crown prince during the Yi Chu turmoil, he was a neutral faction.
Li Xi was originally the general political envoy and was later transferred to Nanjing.
Zhang Gun is the Shaoqing of Dali Temple. He once urged the Supreme Emperor during his Northern Campaign. Now he is patrolling Sichuan. He is a capable man.
Cao Yi guarded Liaodong, guarded the border areas, and did not make any mistakes. He was the most famous person who guarded Liaodong after Wu Kai.
Shi Ju and Jiao Li were Cao Yi's generals.
Tian Li was the commander of the regiment and made his mark together with Fan Guang. Although his ability was not as good as Fan Guang's, he was not Shi Heng's man.
Chen Wang is the chief military officer of Guangxi. Now that Liu Pu is in charge of Guangxi, it is okay to order Chen Wang to return to Beijing.
Zhang Tong was the commander of the Japanese army. He was not very capable, but he was a neutral faction.
Huang Shijun and Feng Guanqing are both capable and talented people.
The cabinet is finally willing to recommend reliable talents.
Zhu Qiyu nodded slightly: "Let's all go back to Beijing."
"Your Majesty, Cao Yi, Shi Ju, and Jiao Li, there are at most two people who have returned to the capital. Liu Guangheng returned to the capital. Liaodong has only Shang Guan to support him. The veteran is worried that he is unable to do it, so one veteran is still needed to guard it." Hu Hui.
Advice.
"No, call them all back!"
Zhu Qiyu shook his head: "The imperial court recommends another person to replace the Liaodong Commander-in-Chief."
He was a little unsure whether Cao Yi, Shi Ju, and Jiao Li were neutral, or people from Zhu Qizhen, so he simply ordered him back to the capital and watched under his nose.
Besides, these three veterans are already very young and it is time for them to return to Beijing and enjoy their old age.
There is also a deeper meaning: Shi Ju and Jiao Li are not Han people, they are the second generation of Han Chinese Mongolians. If these two people are left to guard Liaodong, Zhu Qiyu will not worry.
"There are very few people in Beijing who can guard Liaodong."
Hu Bi chewed and said that Liang Yun was qualified, but His Majesty would definitely not let him go.
"Your Majesty, there has been no war in Liaodong recently, so we can hold it in check temporarily. Although Shang Gong is pedantic, he can still be cautious and can guard Liaodong for a while." Lin Cong admonished.
Zhu Qiyu also couldn't make up his mind and looked at Hu Hui.
"Shang Lu is fine, but I'm worried that he won't be able to suppress the arrogant and powerful generals in Liaodong. It's better to keep Cao Yi in Liaodong and transfer Shi Ju and Jiao Li back to the capital first." Hu Hui weighed and said.
Because of the civil servants' side, those who are good at organizing the army will also be transferred back to the capital to take over the regiment and camp. There is indeed no candidate who can supervise Liaodong.
Zhu Qiyu glanced at Hu Bi, who nodded slightly.
Obviously, Hu Hui was not worried about Shi Ju and Jiao Li. Without Cao Yi, what would happen if they surrendered to the enemy?
"Leave Jiao Sheng, Jiao Qian, and Shi Zhi in Liaodong to calm Jiao's rites and show his devotion to gathering." Hu Hui added.
Jiao Sheng and Jiao Qian were Jiao Li's elder brothers, and Shi Shi was Shi Ju's younger brother. They stayed in Liaodong to show the sincerity of the central government.
"Let's do this first, and then let Cao Yi return to Beijing when a suitable candidate is found!"
Zhu Qiyu nodded slightly: "My lords, since you have decided to recruit troops, you must first settle their families. For those who are recruited by the regiment camp, their family members will first be placed in Chaoyang City."
"Your Majesty's words are very true. Firstly, they can calm the hearts of the refugees; secondly, they can inspire young people to join the army."
Hu Bi did not mention recruiting from military households.
Military households have long since died. Today's military households are actually a group of slaves who cannot escape. If we expect them to fight on the battlefield, it is more practical to build another archway and spend money to recruit soldiers.
"This is a decree sent to Shi Pu to properly identify the refugees and give priority to the resettlement of military dependents. Those whose family members are in the military will be allocated real estate in Chaoyang City first. Houses can be selected and houses will be built for them first."
Zhu Qiyu changed the subject: "Now that the regiment is recruiting, I plan to break up the guards and reorganize them, and those who do not meet the conditions will be eliminated directly!"
"Your Majesty, I have no objection to reorganizing the Imperial Guards. However, the commanders of each Imperial Guards are all served by Xunchen. But now that the Xunchens are all in Xuanzang, how can they come back to reorganize and train the Imperial Guards?" Hu Hui retorted.
"What the old lady said is true."
Zhu Qiyu nodded: "I plan to order the sons of hundreds of Chinese and civil military officials to enter the palace as sword-wielding guards. Of course, it is not mandatory. Those who intend to join the military can enter the palace and accept the call. Those who don't want to do so can also do it. I will never force it."
"I plan to promote commanders and train guards from among these newcomers!"
Hu Hui's face tightened, thinking that after the emperor had harmed the daughters of the officials, he was now attacking his son!
I was relieved to hear that it wasn't forced.
"I also know that forceful melons are not sweet, and there are dangers in joining the military. Letting these pampered children join the army and suffer the hardships of the wind and sand is probably wishful thinking on my part and that of the ministers."
"However, in the families of the ministers in the court, there are not only legitimate sons, but also many common sons."
"Usually, the court doesn't care about these bastards. These bastards are either hanging around in the rouge and gouache; or they are bullying the good and bullying outside. Anyway, they have no future in life."
"But things are different now. I have decided to clean up the atmosphere in Gyeonggi and train these bastards into talents!"
"You don't have time to take care of it. Throw it into the palace and I will take care of it for you."
"No one is born to be a famous general, and no one is born to be a coward!"
"You don't dare to take care of things at home. If you can't take care of them, send them all to the palace. I'll help you take care of them. I don't think they'll all be successful. At least they don't dare to relax in front of me! In the future, no matter what, at least they will get out of here.
Come and show yourself!"
"My lords, what do you think?"
After arresting Baiguan's daughter, Zhu Qiyu wanted to arrest Baiguan's son.
However, the official lady and the rich young man rub shoulders in the palace. If something happens that messes up the palace, people will laugh at them if the news spreads.
Hu Hui was unwilling in his heart. His son was not a fuel-efficient lamp, and he did not want to be tricked to death by his son.
Including Lin Cong, Wang Wen and others were unwilling.
However, Wang Zhi knelt on the ground with a bang and burst into tears: "Your Majesty, your words have touched my heart!"
"Those unfilial sons in my family have made me exhausted physically and mentally."
"You want to take care of me, but firstly I don't have time, and secondly, the tigress at home is blocking me and I won't be disciplined."
"The old minister's sons have all been raised to waste!"
"The sons of the old minister are all willing to enter the palace and be trained by Your Majesty!"
Wang Zhi cried so hard that he felt numb.
Lin Cong felt an inexplicable chill in his heart. His position as the number one licking dog was not guaranteed.
"Your Majesty is really my reborn parent. You know what I think and you are willing to worry about my family. How dare you not dedicate yourself to me?"
Lin Cong immediately knelt down and flattered him to the fullest.
Then, all the officials in the Qinzheng Hall knelt down and begged the emperor with tears to control the unfilial sons in the family.
There was a sound of crying in Qinzheng Hall, and some people thought that their son was dead.
Hu Xi felt a toothache, and finally sighed, these sycophants!
Seeing that the officials were so obedient, Zhu Qiyu raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Please rest assured, sir. If any of your family members are good at reading and become guards with swords, I will also allow them to take part in the imperial examination."
Immediately, Wang Zhi, Li Xian and others' eyes lit up.
What civilian officials pursue diligently is military power!
Wouldn't it be beautiful if the legitimate son joined politics and the concubine joined the army?
Hu Xi frowned. The emperor was blurring the dividing line between civil and military affairs. Isn't he afraid that Yang Jian and Gao Cheng would appear?
"Then the matter will be settled and the cabinet will pass the decree."
Zhu Qiyu wanted to control the imperial guards, but he did not have enough direct lineage, so he had to send more people in to supervise each other.
Of course, the distinction between civil and military forces must never change. Civilization is civility and military force is martial arts. Civilization can override military force, but military force must not surpass civil service. That is the way to create chaos.
He can still suppress it while he is alive, but what if a young monarch appears?
Military generals must be born from honorable ministers, and they can be recruited from the public, but they must not be born from civil servants.
Besides, who said there is no need for civil servants in the army?
Are you thinking wrongly?
"Your Majesty, it's time for breakfast." Feng Xiao reminded in a low voice.
"Pass the meal, all the gentlemen will also have a bowl of white porridge and a bite of pickles with me."
Zhu Qiyu was a rare generous person and gave Feng Xiao a wink, saying, "Don't serve the eggs. I have to eat them secretly."
Have had a meal.
Zhu Qiyu asked people to retreat.
He took out the box and looked at it carefully. When he found that there was no sign of it being opened, he breathed a sigh of relief and found a place to hide it.
At this time, it was already broad daylight, and the Military Aircraft Department sent the memorial.
At the same time, Zhang Yong's godson Liang Fang sent a secret message, which was sent by Pingjiang Marquis Chen Yu.
Chen Yu was originally Pingjiang Bo. After he ascended the throne, he was granted the title of Marquis of Pingjiang by the Jin Dynasty and was given a three-generation certificate. He is now the garrison of Nanjing.
Expand the memorial.
"Huguang, a large vassal in the southeast, plans to lead the Hujiang River, control the barbarians and Yue, and establish diplomatic relations. There will be a meeting between Guangzhou, Guizhou, and Shu, where the people will live together, merchants will come and go, and there will be four gatherings of boats and carriages."
"For example, the Chu Mansion, since the founding of the country at the beginning of Hongwu, has had three guards, and no officers, soldiers, and ceremonial guards. In the past forty or fifty years, the population has increased, and there has been no accumulation of food and wages. Thousands of ships have been built, tens of thousands of horses have been purchased, and soldiers have been
A strong country and a rich country cannot be matched by other vassals."
"However, most of the officials in the guard office are married to each other, and they have branches and branches. The villains have different plans at times, and it is really difficult to control them. I beg the emperor not to have any doubts, but to be honest."
"At this time of peace, I entrusted the grain reserves of the capital to refuse, and ordered the important ministers and the Huguang Division to select the elite escort officers to provide grain and ships, and order them to be transported to Beijing. If they are retained as envoys for preparation, their wings will be clipped and they will be eliminated.
With his evil plan, the king can protect the country forever, and the court will have both justice and justice in mind."
Zhu Qiyu read it carefully and sighed: "Who said there are no pillars in the imperial court!"
Judging from the time of signing, it should be that Chen Yu received the memorial written after the death of King Xiang and spread it to the capital.
He didn't know that so many things had happened in the capital.
What's more, he didn't know that Prince Xiang's family assets had been swallowed up by some vassal kings.
"O loyal minister!"
Zhu Qiyu sighed and immediately thought about Chen Yu's meaning.
Pingjiang Marquis Chen Yu is flattering, does he want to be transferred back to the capital? Or is he simply flattering? To seek refuge with him?
"Chen Hu, are Chen Rui in the capital?" Zhu Qiyu asked Feng Xiao.
Chen Hu is Chen Yu's younger brother, and Chen Rui is Chen Yu's eldest son.
"Your Majesty, Chen Rui is in the capital, and Chen Hu came to the capital from Nanjing with a secret." Feng Xiao reported back.
Zhu Qiyu raised the corner of his mouth. Chen Yu was a smart man. He was worried that he would not be able to move, so he sent his brother back and allowed the emperor to send him around to find a way for his brother.
If this secret message to cut down the feudal vassal is spread, it will definitely cause an uproar.
When it comes to cutting down vassals, not only Jianwen and Yongle were cutting down vassals, but Emperor Xuanzong was also cutting down vassals.
The Hongxi Dynasty had nearly 20,000 guards guarding various royal palaces. Emperor Xuanzong cut off 10,000 of them with one blow, leaving only a fixed number of 5,600.
Chen Yu's sword is feasible. The princes of Huguang and Jiangxi are not honest. Prince Xiang's family members dare to embezzle money and steal money from me?
Haha, those who robbed me of money must either return it obediently or go to see the King of Hell.
Where should you go?
Zhu Qiyu's eyes flashed with murderous intent.
Taizu's establishment of vassals was definitely the trigger for the demise of the Ming Dynasty. Each government supported a vassal king, and some counties even had to support a vassal king.
Who will support the few thousand or tens of thousands people in the feudal prince's palace? Where does the money come from?
Anyway, it is definitely not from officials or gentry.
Only the people at the bottom are unlucky, especially as time goes by, there are more and more sects and clans, and the size of the clans is extremely large, and they are all freeloaders, which can be called the largest in the history.
The people became increasingly impoverished, the court was so poor that it vomited blood, and the clans that traded economy for politics were extremely dissatisfied. Even the lower-level clans could not even eat enough to eat, and they rebelled one after another.
To put it bluntly, the Ming Dynasty was sucked to death by the feudal kings.
Instead, we can take the opportunity to cut down the vassal's guards first, then kill a group of them, imprison a group of them, and give those who are honest and obedient a way to survive.
"When Chen Hu and Chen Rui enter the palace, they will first serve as guards with swords."
Zhu Qiyu's eyes flickered: "I am sending a message to Li Zhen that the capital is experiencing food difficulties. I would like to purchase a batch of food from Huguang and pay for it from internal funds."
"Your Majesty, there are so many refugees in Huguang, how can we still sell grain?" Feng Xiao was puzzled.
"Huh, refugees? Where there are more refugees, there will be more food!"
Zhu Qiyu sneered: "Let's not talk about the merchants, nor the local officialdom, but those sects and vassals will definitely make a lot of money. If I spend money to buy it, they will definitely sell it!"
"The refugees in Huguang..."
Zhu Qiyu glanced at him, and he was so frightened that he knelt on the ground.
"If I don't buy it, will the refugees be able to eat?"
Zhu Qiyu asked back: "It is precisely this food that prevents the refugees from eating!"
Feng Xiao kowtows to apologize, but doesn't understand.
If the food is gone, in order to make money, the feudal princes, officials, and grain merchants will resettle the refugees and allocate land to them for farming.
Otherwise, no matter how the Chaotang regulates it, the refugees will not be cut off.
"Go and deliver the message."
Zhu Qiyu continued to review the memorial.
…
Wang Zhi burst into tears as he walked out of the palace.
He was still a human before entering the palace, but now he is worse than a dog.
"Master, is there still a way?" Wang Zhi asked crying.
Hu Zhi despised Wang Zhi as a human being, but the emperor was so domineering and the court was under his control, what could Wang Zhi do?
He sighed quietly and looked at Li Xian and Lin Cong.
Lin Cong bowed first: "I am a low-ranking official who has no choice but to do so!"
"Old Master, this is not the place to talk. Please go to the lower official's house and talk to each other." Li Xian looked carefully at him.
Nowadays, their life is not happy, but some of them are high-spirited, such as Yue Zheng.
"All right."
Hu Hui could also see the pain in their hearts.
There is always a process for turning a person into a dog.
The emperor probably knew it too, so he allowed him to vent his anger at the gate of the palace without paying any attention. This was actually because he was confident that the court would not be able to cause trouble.
Arrive at Li Xian's house.
Hu Hui said lightly: "He wanted to be the Taizu, so the courtiers offered him the chance to be the Taizu."
"Ah?" Lin Cong didn't understand.
But Li Xian thought about it and raised his thumb: "Wonderful!"
Didn’t Zhu Qiyu want to be the Holy Emperor?
Then just follow him and let him do it!
Leave all the problems that have troubled the court for many years to him and let him solve them.
Don’t you want to be Taizu?
Okay, we will help you and become Taizu!
Taizu took care of all kinds of things every day, so you should take care of all kinds of things every day. Problems that throw the sky are as big as a cart. If you want to be Taizu, you have to cure the stubborn diseases and bring peace to the world.
Just see if you have Taizu's ability to forcefully solve problems!
"Your Majesty, your Majesty, will immediately report the shortcomings of the capital to your Majesty!" Li Xian smiled mischievously.
Hu Xi shook her head: "Take your time."
Li Xian was stunned for a moment and then laughed.
Boil the frog in warm water.
Throwing out difficult problems in one breath can easily scare the emperor away. What if he becomes Emperor Xuanzong instead of Taizu?
Hahaha!
Li Xian paid homage to Hu Hui: "I admire you very much!"
Lin Cong, Wang Zhi and others also kowtowed.
"Your Majesty needs capable ministers and officials, so we must become capable ministers and officials."
"I know your abilities well. As long as you are willing to focus half of your energy on government affairs, no one can compare with you."
"Your Majesty wants to be the Taizu, and I will support him as the Taizu!"
"If Your Majesty wants to criticize the ills of the times and wants to reform, I would like to be Wang Anshi!"
"If Your Majesty personally conquers Mobei and wants to conquer the world, I will serve as the pillars of the Yongle Dynasty!"
"We will do whatever His Majesty wants us to do!"
"One day, Your Majesty will become Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty."
Hu Xi chuckled.
Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty was an eternal sage in his early period. As wise as he was in his early period, he was also mediocre in his later period.
Does the Taizong of Tang Dynasty mentioned by Hu Hui belong to the early period? Or does it belong to the late period?
Besides, can Zhu Qiyu have the skills of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty? It would be fun if he did not become Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty and became Emperor Gaozu of the Song Dynasty.
Li Xian, Lin Cong and others couldn't help laughing.
"Then I'll do this Wei Zheng!" Li Xian chuckled.
"Although Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui can't do it, they can do it with integrity!" Lin Cong chuckled.
"I cannot be a famous official, general or minister, but I can be your Majesty's favorite!" Wang Zhi said with a smile.
"Praise to death, praise to death, the most terrifying thing in the world is praise to death."
Hu Hui disliked Chen Xun's attitude of being a powerful minister the most.
Therefore, it is not unjust to cause the disaster of death.
He likes to make a fortune, just like he is peeling off the cocoon to remove the false and retain the true on the way to find Jianwen.
He likes to look like the emperor likes.
Praising and killing the emperor bit by bit, leading him to destruction in his arrogance.
For example, Emperor Taizong!
Yang Shiqi's methods were more clever and he coaxed the good saint grandson into obsolescence.
It's not easy to be fooled today, so let's be the stupid Emperor Taizong, who started from conquests and died in conquests. Even his own son is like water and fire with him.
The supreme Emperor Yongle! Haha!
…
Dai Han took Cui Ying, the former eunuch in charge of the military affairs bureau, and four craftsmen to the Qinzheng Hall to pay a visit.
The craftsman's name is Zhang Dajian.
He stutters a bit, but he is the best gunpowder craftsman. The gunpowder he mixes is very precise and has the lowest rate of bad things.
"Your Majesty, the military battle station is close to water and is prone to moisture. Firearms are most afraid of moisture. The maintenance cost is too high. I am worried about the impact of the lead."
Zhang Dajian spoke intermittently, and what he said was not very clear.
That is to say, if it is close to water, the projectile will be susceptible to moisture.
"Moreover, I'm worried that if the gunpowder explodes accidentally, it will affect the imperial city. Even if I kill my whole family, I don't dare to disturb the Holy One!"
Zhang Dajian was out of breath before he finished speaking.
It's not clear either.
They were afraid that the gunpowder would explode and affect the imperial city, and they would be beheaded.
Zhu Qiyu didn't feel dissatisfied and asked him to speak slowly.
But after waiting for a long time, he actually finished speaking.
Feng Xiao coughed and reminded Dai Han, why did he bring such a thing into the palace?
Dai Han glared at Cui Ying angrily. They were all recommended by Cui Ying.
"It's just that I didn't think carefully."
Zhu Qiyu nodded slightly: "The war situation has been cleared, right?"
"Your Majesty, the work has been completed," Dai Han reported back.
"Then let's install the Ordnance Bureau."
It’s not bad to keep the armor right under your nose.
Zhu Qiyu asked Feng Xiao to bring the map and pointed to the location of the Supervisor of Ceremonies: "What do you think of this place?"
The Si Li Jian is located on the north side of Long Live Mountain, next to the Internal Officials Prison and the Scarf and Hat Bureau.
"Your Majesty, you don't dare to occupy the place of the Supervisor of Ceremonies! The Supervisor of Ceremonies is the center of the palace. Compared with the military bureau, ten thousand military bureaus are not as valuable as the Supervisor of Ceremonies!" Dai Han knelt on the ground.
But why does this sound like giving Zhang Yong eye drops?
How did Zhang Yong offend him?
Or, just after living a stable life, do you want to start dog-eat-dog fights and engage in internal strife?
"It doesn't matter, the Supervisor of Ceremonies has just moved back to the palace."
Zhu Qiyu pondered and said: "Build a row of houses outside Huiji Gate and inside Donghua Gate to serve as the place for the Supervisor of Ceremonies. If the house is bigger, it doesn't hurt to occupy more space. From now on, the Supervisor of Ceremonies will be placed here. I
Pick up the book and list it in person."
"My slave obeys the order!" Feng Xiao bowed and said.
Zhu Qiyu looked at Zhang Dajian: "What else can I do?"
"No, no." Zhang Dajian waved his hands repeatedly, forgetting the rules. Feng Xiao wanted to hit him, but Zhu Qiyu stopped him.
"I will satisfy every request you make!"
Zhu Qiyu looked at the other three craftsmen. These three were named Liu Shangxue, Shen Chang, and Yu Zhongguang. They were all outstanding craftsmen.
The three of them said no.
"Then I will make a request!"
Zhu Qiyu stood up slowly: "I restructured the military strategy because I hope that the Ming Dynasty will develop more powerful firearms!"
"You should know clearly that if I want to travel across Mobei, I will not be short of firearms."
"So, I can satisfy all your requirements!"
"You must also meet my requirements!"
Zhu Qiyu's voice became louder and louder: "I know that the military affairs bureau is full of officialdom. The craftsmen are treated as adults, and the craftsmen are just messing around. They don't regard the military bureau as a family!"
"But after I restructured the Military and War Bureau, the Military and War Bureau was subordinate to the Military Aircraft Department and was under my direct control!"
"There are no more craftsmen in the war bureau!"
"Only if households improve their firearms and make more practical and powerful firearms, I will not hesitate to reward them!"
"If you want to become an official, you can do it. If you want to be rewarded, you can become a rich man. If you want your son to join the Imperial Guard or the East Factory, you can do it!"
"Zhang Dajian, did you hear what I said?"
"Young man, I heard it!" Zhang Dajian looked excited. He didn't quite believe the imperial edict before, but when he heard His Majesty personally admit it, he really believed it.
The craftsman household has a lowly status and has been a lowly status for generations. To become a civilian household is tantamount to crossing the class, which is even more difficult.
"In this war bureau, I only appoint Dai Han as the admiral eunuch and Cui Ying as the palm eunuch. I will not appoint any other officials!"
"You, Zhang Dajian, are the ambassador; Liu Shangxue, Shen Chang, and Yu Zhongguang are the deputy envoys!"
"I didn't ask you to be an official!"
"I want you to serve the craftsmen!"
"Remember, it's service!"
"You have to keep an eye on the craftsmen. Tell me what they lack or want!"
"I give it!"
"As long as you can make me excellent firearms, mass-produce them, and provide me with armaments across the desert, I will be satisfied with everything."
Zhu Qiyu turned over these few sentences over and over again.
Need a powerful firearm!
Zhang Dajian and four others were shocked. Did the emperor let them serve as officials?
Kneel down quickly to give thanks.
Zhu Qiyu clapped his hands, and Fu Gang brought up a world certificate: "This is the world certificate of marquis. It is hereditary and irreplaceable. You can also be made a marquis!"
boom!
This sentence frightened Zhang Dajian and the four others.
Are they bitches? Can they also be granted the title of marquis?
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, are you trying to deceive us?" Zhang Dajian was so anxious that he stopped even calling His Majesty.
Feng Xiaogang was about to scold, but Zhu Qiyu waved his hand.
"If you don't believe it, you can make it and see if I reward you!" Zhu Qiyu said with a smile.
Gulu!
Zhang Dajian's eyes gleamed.
The most valuable thing in Ming Dynasty is the title.
"Your Majesty, whatever you want to do, I will do it! As long as you are willing to reward me with any coupons, I will be willing to pay anything!"
Zhang Dajian was so anxious that he kowtowed.
The other three people also shouted.
Feng Xiao frowned, how could such a bitch deserve the title?
Zhu Qiyu noticed his expression and couldn't help but sneer, "Taizu, Taizong, which one of the knights is not a mud-legged person? Who is noble?"
Talented people are noble!
"good!"
"In a few days, when the construction of the military warfare bureau is completed, I will go to the military warfare bureau personally to test the guns."
"I will tell you what kind of gun I make, and I will reward you with a title!"
"The Marquis is not the only one who gets the reward, the Duke also gets it!"
Zhu Qiyu's words made Zhang Dajian completely crazy.
It can stimulate Zhang Dajian's enthusiasm more than letting him be the ambassador.
After chatting for a few more words, they left.
"Feng Xiao, I asked you to summon the craftsmen before, why didn't I see it?" Zhu Qiyu just remembered that he wanted to light up the technology tree.
"When I return to the Emperor, the craftsmen have been summoned, but the Emperor is too busy and has no time to see them."
"Um."
Zhu Qiyu nodded: "Is Dong Ci's workshop open for business? Those women must be properly placed. I don't know how many of these women are the family members of the soldiers in the Beijing camp. If they become Changji, how should I explain to the soldiers?
!”
"Back to the emperor, Dong Ci is still collecting the workshops of merchants in the capital. It will take some time to organize them." Feng Xiao said cautiously.
"Where are those women? Where are they placed?"
"Place it in Rabbit Mountain."
Zhu Qiyu nodded: "It's okay in Tu'er Mountain. Let the eunuchs in the palace guard it. Don't touch the men, so as not to make a joke!"
"The women and girls who were rescued by the factory guards were also placed in Tu'er Mountain."
"Give stuttering food every day, don't starve to death." Zhu Qiyu warned.
"My servant obeys the order!" Feng Xiao accepted the order.
Zhu Qiyu frowned: "I urge Dong Ci. If he doesn't do it well, I'll replace him with someone else!"
"Don't look for merchants' belongings by yourself. Go and bribe those in charge. Recruit them all and let them serve the royal merchant house. Put the deeds in the palace. Anyone who is dishonest will be dealt with directly."
"Let Xu Gan send the eunuch who knows the eunuch to help him!"
"Speed up, don't wait for those merchants to come to their senses and ask for it from me when the time comes. I have to give it back, do you understand?"
"This slave understands the emperor's painstaking efforts!"
Feng Xiao took the lead.
It’s just that eating alone looks so ugly.
Zhu Qiyu let all the officials go out to eat and drink, but later regretted it and asked them to hand over the stolen goods to the internal funds in the name of corruption.
He had just killed the merchants and grabbed some extravagant wealth, but he was still not satisfied. He wanted to turn all their fixed properties into his own.
Everyone is a fat sheep!
If I don’t eat everything, I will still be poor.
Zhu Qiyu did not feel any psychological burden and continued to deal with the memorial.
Feng Xiao reported Lu Zhong, and Shu Liang paid him a visit.
Zhu Qiyu summoned Lu Zhong first. Seeing Lu Zhong's evil spirit, Zhu Qiyu nodded with satisfaction: "This is my Tiqi!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment!"
"Wei Chen passed Wu Zheng and discovered a total of 110,000 shi of dirty grain!"
"90,000 dan were intercepted, and 20,000 dan of grain sank into the river. Wei Chen is currently salvaging it. I don't think the loss will be much."
Lu Zhong reported the truth.
Zhu Qiyu seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "How much did you take?"
Lu Zhong's expression changed, and he kowtowed: "Without your Majesty's consent, I will never dare to touch a single grain of food. Your Majesty, please give me a clear warning!"
"Get up, take what you got, and do things for me. The rewards from the court are not many, and it is human nature to have unclean hands and feet." Zhu Qiyu comforted him.
Lu Zhong insisted that he didn't take it.
Zhu Qiyu just smiled and sunk 20,000 shi. What a good excuse for being greedy.
Fortunately, the food crisis has been alleviated for the time being, otherwise, I will pluck your dog's head!
Feng Xiao came in holding a bronze talisman.
"This bronze talisman is engraved with your name and achievements. I give it to you as a reward for your merits!" Zhu Qiyu put his hand on his hand.
Lu Zhong thank you.
"Lu Zhong, I am not satisfied with Tiqi, do you know?"
As soon as these words came out, Lu Zhong fell to the ground, trembling all over.
"The purpose of my formation of Tiqi is to monitor the world for me. Jinyiwei, Dongchang, and Tiqi will monitor them separately and gather them into my hands. I will then distinguish them."
"However, Tiqi did not exert the power I wanted."
"Indeed, it is not easy for you to win over the people's hearts among the orphans of those who died in the Tumubao war. I can understand that."
"Tiqi has only been established for a short period of time and its capabilities are insufficient. I can understand that."
"but!"
"Whenever, as long as I give you an order, you must do whatever it takes, even if it means risking your own life, to repay my kindness!"
Zhu Qiyu's voice changed: "This time, your merits and demerits are equal to each other. I will no longer pursue your faults, nor will I reward you."
"You can still take Tiqi with you."
"Continue to expand the number of Tiqi, and pay close attention to training."
"Don't embarrass me when you go to the battlefield and see blood!"
Lu Zhong was shocked. Going to the battlefield was not a good thing. Who would want to die on the battlefield if they were used to living in peace.
But on the surface, he pretends to be happy.
Zhu Qiyu saw this in his eyes: "From now on, the Tiqi will only have commanders, not admirals. You will be the commander of the Tiqi, and Yu Kang will be the admiral of the Tiqi."
Yu Kang is Yu Qian's adopted son.
Lu Zhong's expression changed slightly. From admiral to commander, his authority was reduced.
Adding another deputy envoy, it is obvious that the emperor does not trust him.
"Don't think too much. Admirals are eunuchs. Do you also want to be a eunuch? Focus on Tiqi and clean up Tiqi. I will naturally promote you. Not to mention being a commander, the general can do it.
,don’t you want to earn a title?”
Gulu!
Lu Zhong swallowed his saliva, who doesn't want to earn a title?
"Just do things honestly if you want. If you do well, I will give you a title. If you do it extremely well, I will give you a marquis. Why not?"
"By the way, don't interrogate those merchants you caught. They are wasting food rations. Kill them all!"
"I will send Dongchang to search the house!"
Zhu Qiyu encouraged him a few words and then sent him away.
Shu Liang came in to pay his respects.
Let me tell you what happened in Mengzhou.
"Shu Liang, do you think I should punish you?" Zhu Qiyu's eyes flashed.
Shu Liang knelt on the ground with a thud: "I know my mistake, but I don't dare to defend myself. It's all my fault!"
"You do know how to say nice things!"
Zhu Qiyu asked him to get up and asked: "That Mengzhou, I heard you say that you value him very much, why did you fall to this level?"
Because Shu Liang had controlled Dongchang for a short time and controlled more than 300 people, it was already pretty good.
People like Zhang Yongnian, Meng Zhou and others are not his direct lineage.
It's inevitable that something will go wrong.
"It turns out that Mengzhou's confession was all his own doing."
"But this slave refuses to listen to one person's words."
"After being tortured that night, I found out that it was a man named Zhou Cheng who killed Zhao Rong while Mengzhou was not paying attention."
"This Mengzhou is very heroic, values loyalty, and takes responsibility for Zhou Cheng's crimes."
"The slaves also tortured Zhou Cheng."
"Zhou Cheng admitted that he hated Mengzhou because when Mengzhou appointed the general banner, he chose Fan Qing instead of him, so he hates him."
"In order to frame him, I killed Zhao Rong."
"Then he tricked Mengzhou and asked him to distribute the money to his brothers, and asked Dongchang fans to keep it secret and not to spread it out."
"As far as I know, this Mengzhou regretted it very much afterwards. He didn't want to eat or drink, and he also lost weight."
Shu Liang is still returning to Mengzhou to protect him.
Zhu Qiyu frowned. In fact, this is the most difficult thing to solve.
Loyalty and righteousness, sometimes you really can't have both.
"What do you think of Mengzhou?" Zhu Qiyu could tell that Shu Liang valued Mengzhou very much, otherwise he would not risk being blamed and speak for Mengzhou.
"This slave is very optimistic about Mengzhou!"
Zhu Qiyu nodded: "Then I will demote him to Ding, and you can take him with you first."
"Your Majesty, isn't this contrary to the national law?" Shu Liang couldn't believe it, that your Majesty actually came back to protect Mengzhou.
Mengzhou is so lucky to be protected by the emperor.
"Mengzhou is going to die, but people will fake death to survive!"
Zhu Qiyu's eyes flickered: "Shu Liang, I ask you again, is this Mengzhou trustworthy?"
"I don't dare to vouch for him, but this person is very charlatan in his behavior. I think he can be trusted!"
"Okay, let him fake his death to survive, change his identity, and go to Xuanzang for me!"
Zhu Qiyu has always wanted to know the real situation in Xuanzhen.
But the factory guards have all been abolished. Now that the framework has just been built, the factory guards outside Beijing are not trustworthy enough.
This Mengzhou can be put to use.
The point is that he has no interest in Yu Qian, Zhang Fu and other nobles. He was born in Liaodong.
"My slave, please thank the Emperor for your kindness on behalf of Mengzhou!" Shu Liang kowtowed.
Zhu Qiyu waved his hand: "It may not be some kind of heavenly grace. Maybe it would be more pleasant to die now than to be played to death in Xuanzhen."
"Go and ask him. If he wants to go, I will spare him. After finishing the errand, I will let him return to Dongchang."
"Your Majesty, it is better to die later than to die early. Mengzhou will definitely be willing to do so." Shu Liang laughed.
"That Zhou Cheng is really a villain. Mengzhou promoted him before, but he actually took revenge on Mengzhou afterwards. He is quite a talent."
Zhu Qiyu sneered.
"This slave wants to kill him. What's the point of keeping such a villain alive?" Shu Liang said.
"He and Mengzhou are naturally at odds with each other. Let's keep him first so that he can suffer more in prison and make him hate Mengzhou."
A cold smile appeared at the corner of Zhu Qiyu's mouth: "If Mengzhou is unreliable, let him out and bite Mengzhou to death. If Mengzhou is really a compassionate and righteous person, then execute him and make Mengzhou happy."
"My slave obeys the order!"
Shu Liang could see that the emperor did not trust Mengzhou and was worried about Mengzhou's rebellion.
"That Fan Qing can be used. He has brains, but he is hesitant in doing things. He has no decision-making ability and no ambition. This man is capable and is a good knife. Don't worry about using him as a dog."
Zhu Qiyu reminded Shu Liang: "Kill that Zhang Yongnian. Anyone who associates with businessmen should die!"
"My slave obeys the order!"
Zhu Qiyu encouraged Shu Liang again before sending him away.
Also processed some memorials.
Wang Xian, the right deputy imperial envoy to the capital, wrote a memorial.
Presented by the cabinet.
"The year comes to spring for this government, which is expected to be prosperous. The two counties of Wanping are built. In addition to the Mang Shen and the native ox, every spring there is an ox, a flower, 72 pearls, a golden foot, weighing 1.3 taels, and a gold medal.
, weighing 2 coins; 5 taels of gold-plated gold and silver wire, 12 green leaves, a total of 40 taels of silver..."
Zhu Qiyu was confused by this memorial.
What's all this?
He summoned Yin Zhi and asked Yin Zhi to read it to him.
"The two counties have been hit by disasters year after year, and the people are particularly embarrassed. They have flowers in front of them, and they have not received permission from the Ministry of Rites to coordinate the affairs. It is cheap to manage internal affairs..."
Zhu Qiyu seemed to want money!
Daxing and Wanping counties were indeed severely affected by the disaster.
"Your Majesty, this is the imperial censor's request to your Majesty to abolish the bad custom of welcoming the spring!" Yin Zhi understood.
Every year on the day before the beginning of spring, the governor of Shuntian Prefecture leads a crowd to the Spring Field, carries the spring ox and the God of Jumang back to the Yamen, and then parades the spring ox through the streets to be whipped, which is called spring beating.
However, this cost is borne by the two counties.
If there is no money in the county, the people of the two counties have to bear the burden.
Therefore, Wang Xian proposed that before the day of welcoming the spring arrives, the court should abolish the bad customs of welcoming the spring, save waste, and show pity for the people.
Only then did Zhu Qiyu realize what kind of broken memorial this was, I had to guess!
The key point doesn’t even have a punctuation mark, and I can’t even finish the sentence to understand!
The problem is that when Yin Zhi came to read it, I didn’t even understand it. It didn’t even mention the bad customs of welcoming the Spring Festival!
From now on, all such pretentious memorials will be typed back and copied ten thousand times!
When Yin Zhi saw the emperor's expression of displeasure, he lowered his head and did not dare to say a word.
In fact, this memorial was published every year, and the emperor issued an edict to reprimand it, but it could not be changed every year.
Wang Xian brought up the old story again because he wanted to give His Majesty the opportunity to become Taizu!
"hehe!"
Zhu Qiyu smiled suddenly.
This is Hu Hui's handiwork. He came to embarrass me with difficult problems.
"It is decreed that the Yin of Shuntian Prefecture will not welcome the spring this year. If there are people from various places who welcome the spring and increase the burden on the people, they will tie up those who welcome the spring, parade through the streets, and be whipped by the people. This is called dog beating!"
Zhu Qiyu curled his lips and sneered, how can this kind of problem defeat me?
"Anyone who is beaten by a dog will be fired and will never be hired!" Zhu Qiyu added another sentence.
Yin Zhi's eyes widened, this, is this possible?
"The cabinet delivers the decree to the world."
"Your Majesty, do you need to polish it?" Yin Zhi felt that these words were too explicit.
"No need, just tell the truth. If anyone can't understand the human language, I will send him to the Palace of the King of Hell to learn nonsense!"
Zhu Qiyu curled his lips and sneered: "Is there any other memorial to be submitted by the cabinet?"
Hu Hui wants to boil a frog in warm water?
Then I will take this opportunity to criticize the current situation and reform the government!
The war in Xuanzhen has not yet ended. When the war rate is reduced, I will send factory guards and cavalry to patrol the country. My tentacles are not limited to Gyeonggi.
Chapter 53 has been blocked and needs to be revised. I will see how much is left tomorrow. Those who haven’t read it are in great pain!
