Chapter 74 Young Army!

The next day.

Fengtian Hall, civil and military personnel, all gathered together until they stood in the square under the steps of Fengtian Hall.

The officials of Honglu Temple shouted: "Li!"

Everyone bowed in unison: "Long live your Majesty."

The Honglu Temple official shouted again, "Bye!"

Everyone fell to the ground again, "Long live!"

Officials of Honglu Temple sang again: "Goodbye!"

Everyone fell to the ground again and shouted: "Long live forever."

I have to give a thumbs up to His Majesty Taizu. This rule has been continued from the Yuan Dynasty. Zhu Qiyu sat on the dragon throne and watched all the talents and dignitaries in the world kneeling at his feet. The emperor's majesty was so majestic that it didn't feel too good.

Zhu Qiyu nodded.

Honglu Temple officials immediately shouted again: "Get up!"

Xing'an, the eunuch and eunuch in charge of etiquette, took a small step forward and spoke in a sharp voice that penetrated the room, "If there is something to do, we will start to play, if there is nothing to do, we will retreat."

The ministers held the imperial huts and looked at the nose and heart with their eyes.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who has never attended any court meetings since the first day, also came today. In addition, Bai Gui entered the palace, Fang Ying returned to Beijing, and there are various signs that indicate whether the recent court will be peaceful.

The first thing today is either to discuss Fang Ying's merits or to choose a concubine for the prince.

Everything else will come later.

Fang Ying waited for a while, but saw no one coming out.

Cough.

It means that I'm going to play, please don't crash.

The officials of Honglu Temple said nothing.

So Fang Ying came out and said, "Your Majesty, Fang Ying, is following your Majesty's order to conquer the rebels in Huguang and defeat the rebels. They have conquered a total of 270 rebel strongholds and captured alive the fake Hou Bo and 102 people below. Now the chaos has been settled.

Reply to His Majesty."

This is an opening statement.

The court had already received the battle report.

The implication is that the humble minister has returned from quelling the chaos and has achieved great success in battle. Your Majesty, please look at the reward.

Zhu Qiyu smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Nanhe."

Xing'an came forward with a piece of edict in his hand, "I have been entrusted by heaven to carry the emperor. The edict says: Nanhe Bo Fangying quelled the Miao rebellion, established the territory of our Ming Dynasty, and pacified our hundreds of millions of people. He has made outstanding achievements, and his principles have been used to serve the generals of the world. He has been granted the title of Nanhe."

Hehou, the annual salary is 1,500 dan, and he will be given 30,000 coins and coupons, which will be inherited by his descendants."

Fang Ying was overjoyed and received the order to express her gratitude.

The annual salary of a marquis is usually around 1,200 dan, but His Majesty made an exception and gave him 1,500 dan!

There is a profound meaning in this.

The title of a marquis, an increase in salary, the gift of money, and hereditary inheritance by descendants. Such a reward is completely worthy of Fang Ying's efforts, and his reward is a separate imperial edict, which shows that His Majesty regards him with special regard.

Xing'an picked up another imperial edict and continued to reward Chen You and others.

as I thought.

Most of the generals were promoted for their merit, but only Chen You was rewarded with coins.

No knighthood!

With such military exploits, he was not even rewarded by an uncle, and received the same treatment as Zhu Yong who stayed in Huguang as the chief military officer.

Zhu Yong can understand.

After all, I had only been to Huguang for half a year. There were not many battles during the final period, and I had no military exploits. Moreover, I had just been granted the title of Marquis of Funing. It was impossible to grant the title of Duke of the State so soon, so I only rewarded him with coins.

And Chen You made great achievements following Fang Ying.

It doesn't make sense not to call him an uncle.

But His Majesty's reason for not granting the title of marquis to Chen You is reasonable: the faults of Jingtai in four years are worth the loss.

In the fourth year of Jingtai's reign, Chen You lied about his military exploits, and Your Majesty asked him to kill the enemy and serve himself.

Without waiting for the ministers to discuss, Zhu Qiyu immediately said: "After the chaos in Huguang was over, most of the people were displaced. Bandits were rampant and the laws were broken. The local government should take it seriously in order to achieve long-term peace. However, Huguang Cheng announced that all the ministers in the political envoys should sit down and eat vegetarian meals.

I have sent an edict to punish you, and I accept that there is a vacancy for the administrative envoy Si You. Do you have a suitable candidate for your family?"

Zhu Qiyu glanced at Wang Ao intentionally or unintentionally.

Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, don’t you recommend someone?

Wang Ao is not stupid.

Your Majesty got Wang Zhi off the hook and let him take charge of the civil service department alone.

He should share your worries.

The prince is over ten years old, and it is time to choose the concubine. Bai Gui entered the palace yesterday and brought his eldest daughter Bai Li with him. At this time, His Majesty also raised the vacancy of Huguang Chengxuan's political envoy Si You, which was obviously a problem.

Prepared by Bai Gui.

It is beneficial and harmless to sell Bai Gui a favor and support His Majesty at the same time.

What's more, as a civil servant, after Bai Gui took office in the Huguang Chengxuan Envoy Department, if he found out that Chen You, Liang Yue, and Fang Ying were guilty of something fishy, ​​he could take the opportunity to suppress the military commanders represented by Fang Ying.

Why not?

Wang Ao immediately came out and said, "I believe that Bai Gui, the deputy envoy of the Shanxi Ancha Division, is virtuous, intelligent, intelligent, and diligent in helping the world. He is loved by all the people of Shanxi. He is also a shining star in the evaluation of the company of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. He can be

This is a great responsibility.”

Shang Ren, Chen Xun and Wang Wen came out and said: "I second the proposal."

Yu Qian also wanted to join the ranks.

As a civil servant, Yu Qian certainly liked to suppress military generals.

Unexpectedly, Hu Xi coughed behind him.

Hu Hui is reminding Yu Qian that as the head of civil servants, it is not a wise move for you to enter the court at this time. It will directly set off a dispute between civil servants and military generals. If things get out of hand, the outcome will be unpredictable.

Yu Qian woke up and stopped moving.

After Wang Zhi was impeached by Lu Zhong and took the initiative to become an official, Hu Hui became the oldest official in the Ming Dynasty and had the most experience in officialdom. Even Yu Qian respected him.

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said, "In this case, Bai Gui will be appointed as the Chief Envoy of Huguang Chengxu and Siyou Chief Envoy. He will take up his post tomorrow."

All the ministers knelt down and worshiped: "Your Majesty is wise."

In the crowd, Chen You and Liang Yue looked at each other.

My heart is uneasy.

Your Majesty's move is obviously aimed at the two of them. Fang Ying is clean and fearless, but they are different, leaving some hidden dangers. Furthermore, as a scholar, Bai Gui has to list some crimes.

The pen thing.

It should be noted that the civil servant's heart-killing sword has three feet of writing on his desk.

Fang Ying must be encouraged to fight back!

Both of them are self-aware. Without Fang Ying, they are not even as good as Wang Ji and Zhang?

After the ministers stood up, Zhu Qiyu said expressionlessly: "In the tenth year of Yongle, His Majesty Taizong set up a young army for His Majesty Xuanzong, which was under the jurisdiction of the forward guard of the imperial army. It was intended to defend the entire country. During the invasion of the south by Wala, the battle suffered great losses.

Nowadays, the staff is thin and ineffective, which has deviated from the original intention of its establishment. Prince Zhu Jianji is ten years old. He likes martial arts and respects virtue. In line with Taizong's ambition and inheriting Xuanzong's ability, I plan to strengthen the young army and hand it over to the direct control of the prince to uphold his military ethics.

What do you think, ministers and ministers?"

After finishing speaking, he glanced at the ministers.

Who objects?

Who agrees?

The whole hall was in an uproar.

Zhu Jianji was a little confused, the cheap daddy suddenly came to do this.

What an unexpected surprise.

But martial virtue...I have plenty of it!

After Xuanzong ascended the throne, the Young Army was under the control of the avant-garde of the government army. The battle suffered heavy losses in the defense of Beijing. Afterwards, regimental camps were set up to mobilize troops again, and the Young Army existed in name only.

Otherwise, if Shi Heng was in turmoil, how could there be no young army to quell the chaos?

Because there is only one name left.

Now His Majesty has strengthened the young army and handed it over to the Crown Prince. His intention is clear.

I'm afraid this is only the first step.

The military commanders and nobles are happy to hear this. They will strengthen the young army and there will be a group of generals who will be the prince's confidants and will become important ministers of the emperor in the future. This is a good thing.

The civil service group doesn't matter either.

Anyway, the young army will not go to local areas to quell chaos or conquer foreign invaders. They will only defend the East Palace and will not harm the interests of the civil servant group.

But some people don't want to see this situation.

Once the East Palace takes control of the young army, plus the four Tengxiang Wuxiang guards in His Majesty's hands, the strength will be nearly 35,000, not to mention the tens of thousands of Jinyi guards. With such a force, as long as Yu Qian does not resist, he can completely control the capital.

How can we support the restoration of the emperor?
