Fengtian Hall
A group of big-bodied men with round waists lined up on both sides of the hall.
Every breath was heavy with blood.
it's here,
Every one of them is a ruthless character crawling out of the dead.
Standing on the left side under the dragon chair are Lao Zhu’s children.
It’s not just the vassal kings such as King Zhu Fang of Qin, King Zhu Fan of Jin, King Zhu Di of Yan, etc.
It also includes Lao Zhu’s adopted sons.
Li Wenzhong, the Grand Governor of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, stood at the front, side by side with King Zhu Ping of Qin.
Li Wenzhong was originally Lao Zhu's nephew, and was later adopted as his adopted son by Zhu Yuanzhang.
Deeply loved by Lao Zhu,
In charge of the Governor's Mansion.
This can be said to be the most valuable official position in the Ming Dynasty!
In order to prevent military generals from taking over the military power, Zhu Yuanzhang divided the military power into two parts.
The Prime Minister of the two organizations, the Governor's Office of the Fifth Army and the Ministry of War,
The Commander-in-Chief of the Five Armies has the power to command the troops.
The Ministry of War has the power to mobilize troops.
Coupled with Zhu Yuanzhang's deployment of tiger talismans, it can be said that there are three locks on military power.
Although it cannot be used, all the soldiers and horses in the world are indeed in the hands of Li Wenzhong.
It is not enough for him to be the Grand Governor;
Zhu Yuanzhang also appointed Li Wenzhong as the Imperial Academy's wine minister.
Prior to this, Li Wenzhong had already been granted the title of Duke.
Whether it is power or fame, it has reached its peak.
One person is inferior to ten thousand people!
Therefore, only Li Wenzhong is qualified to stand side by side with King Zhu Chong of Qin.
The only person who can stand in front of them is Zhu Biao.
but,
Zhu Biao hasn't arrived yet.
So now it is Qin Wang Zhu Feng and Li Wenzhong who stand at the forefront.
Behind all the vassal kings,
They are the two adopted sons, Ping An and Xu Sima.
These two people are naturally not extraordinary.
Standing on the right side is,
Xu Da, Feng Sheng, Fu Youde, Tang He, Guo Ying and other foreign ministers and generals.
But no matter who it is,
At this moment, I have a big question mark in my heart.
What is the purpose of Your Majesty in calling these people here?
When there is no war, generals can have free time all day long.
Coming to the morning court is basically just a formality.
Lao Zhu also had nothing to say to them.
after all,
This group of people are all good at fighting on the battlefield. If they are allowed to handle political affairs again, it will be too difficult for them.
And today all the martial arts heroes are here,
This made the generals excited.
Could it be that there is going to be a war? !
While everyone was thinking,
I saw Zhu Yuanzhang in front, wearing a dragon robe, and Zhu Biao in a python robe behind.
The two walked into the hall one after the other.
When the generals saw this, they all shouted,
"See Your Majesty!"
This sound was so powerful that it made people feel numb all over.
It was indeed extremely useful to Zhu Yuanzhang’s ears.
Zhu Yuanzhang walked up to the dragon chair and said with a big smile,
"Hahahaha, this is right!
We are getting tired of hearing the mosquitoes of those civil servants every day! "
"Hahahahaha!"
All the generals couldn't help but laugh boldly,
suddenly,
Let everyone feel that the familiar Majesty is back!
It was Zhu Yuanzhang standing in the military tent, drawing his sword and scolding him!
Zhu Yuanzhang swept through the generals,
There was uncontrollable joy between his eyebrows.
"Boss, please order someone."
Zhu Biao, who stood at the front, swept through the crowd,
I couldn't help but feel a little thump in my heart,
I was so stunned by Chang Sen's fart that I even forgot to call Lan Yu and Chang Mao to court!
Zhu Biaodun said,
"Father, Lan Yu and Chang Mao are not here."
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand nonchalantly,
"Okay, there's no need to wait for them, they have other things to do."
Zhu Biao understood and responded,
"Yes, Father."
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and glanced at the generals.
asked,
"Do you know why we are urgently recruiting you today?"
The full-blooded Ping An couldn't bear it any longer, so he took a step forward and said excitedly,
"Father, is there going to be a war?!"
Zhu Yuanzhang glared at Ping An and said,
"Bao'er, your brain knows how to fight every day?!
beat?
Beat your ass! "
He said peacefully and stepped back again.
but,
After Ping An made such a fuss,
All the generals couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
Your Majesty even said there would be no more war.
Then there is nothing to look forward to.
Lao Zhu rarely discussed political matters with these warriors.
First, it's a waste of time and energy, and you can't explain it to them.
Second, this is good.
If a man with both civil and military talents really emerges, Lao Zhu will still have to pay attention.
Seeing the listless look of everyone below,
Lao Zhu couldn't help but drink,
"What we're doing today is no worse than fighting!"
Everyone cheered up a bit and pricked up their ears.
Pretend that you care.
Seeing the messed up appearance of these generals, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but sneer,
He said directly,
"We are planning to set up a Xiongwu Division in the capital and various local and state capitals.
Oh, each of your vassals must also be established,
That's why I called you here. "
King Qin Zhu Fang and Li Wenzhong looked at each other.
They don't understand a little bit,
Is this just a matter of calling everyone here?
It's just a department, and His Majesty can just issue an imperial edict.
but,
The two of them did not ask questions, just waiting for His Majesty's next words.
Zhu Yuanzhang paused and continued,
“This Xiongwu Division is responsible for the security situation in the city.
To put it bluntly,
Help people deal with emergencies. "
All the generals looked at each other,
Still do not understand.
Zhu Yuanzhang held his forehead,
After staying with his eldest grandson for a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang has not spoken so straightforwardly for a long time.
But it’s all about this,
Still can’t understand? !
Compared with our eldest grandson, you look like stupid cows!
no way,
If we don’t explain this matter clearly, they really won’t understand.
Zhu Yuanzhang said in a bad tone,
"The Xiongwu Division we set up only recruits retired soldiers.
There are five thousand in the capital, three thousand in the vassal area, and one thousand in each of the local and state capitals. "
As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, a burst of exclamations broke out in the court room.
They finally understood.
Zhu Biao, who was standing at the front, heard this.
I can't help but feel my pupils tremble,
I just heard that the blind man arranged an assembly line to house disabled veterans.
My father is about to set up a department to resettle retired elite veterans!
One is bottom-up, the other is top-down,
A businessman, an official,
The cooperation was extremely tacit!
Judging from Zhu Biao's political insight, there is nothing wrong with it at all!
Accommodating veterans is a morale-boosting move.
For the troops in the government,
They can go into battle with more passion!
I didn’t do it before because I couldn’t help it.
But suddenly,
Does your father have a trick? !
No!
That ordinary face flashed in Zhu Biao's mind.
It's him!
He came up with it!
There was a commotion in the palace,
Even Xu Da and Feng Sheng, who had no longer participated in political affairs, couldn't help but look happy!
If we can resettle the veterans,
Not only will you gain a good reputation, but it will also make you feel much better!
for a time,
After the generals figured out the pros and cons, they shouted in unison,
"Your Majesty is Holy Mighty!!!"
And in the midst of great joy,
King Yan Zhu Di took a step forward,
There was no joy at all on his face, but his brows were tightened.
"Father."
"Fourth, tell me."
There was silence in the court room.
Zhu Di opened his mouth and said,
"Father, this is a good move, but I don't know how to select one?"
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flashed,
"Naturally, each of your vassal kings will make your own selections."
All the vassal kings were finally relieved.
Lao Zhu’s meaning couldn’t be more obvious.
Take care of the affairs of your own domain by yourself.
In this case, as long as the quotas within the domain are arranged by themselves.
"By the way, after changing your salary allowance,
You have to pay for this yourself. "
Lao Zhu was very stingy and emphasized again,
However, none of the feudal lords had any objections.
after all,
None of us are hard-hearted people.
The veterans who retired from the army shed their blood for the Ming Dynasty.
We can't just ignore others now that there's no war, right?
so,
They are still willing to pay some money.
but,
Zhu Di's words made the foreign ministers and generals freeze in place.
The feudal king can decide the number of veterans by himself.
But the capital and state capitals,
But it won’t work!
In the end, His Majesty has the final say!
The foreign ministers and generals present,
Who wouldn’t want to stuff some of their veterans into it? !
Xu Da took a step forward bravely.
said,
"His Majesty."
"Tiande, haha, I haven't seen you speak for a long time.
Come, let's hear what you have to say? "
Xu Da bowed respectfully and asked,
"May I ask Your Majesty, how will the quotas be allocated between the capital and the localities?"
Everyone couldn't help but hold their breath,
This is also the information they desperately want to know!
Zhu Yuanzhang put his hand on the dragon chair and said with a smile,
"How should we allocate it? Let's see how we allocate it. You all have to complain in your hearts.
How about this? Your strength is fighting.
It's almost time for Qiu Mi,
Let's give you a chance to hold a military parade!
All strength speaks for itself,
Winners will naturally have more places, while losers will naturally have fewer places.
There will be no quota for those who are too disdainful. "
As he said that, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flashed coldly,
"This is the fairest solution we can come up with!
If anyone is still not convinced by then, then don’t blame us for falling out! "
Zhu Yuanzhang slapped the dragon chair hard,
The generals were so frightened that they trembled unconsciously.
"Do you have any objections to our arrangement?"
