The pampered kings knelt for half a quarter of an hour, but their knees hurt. They were wearing royal robes, and their obscene clothes stuck to their bodies, which made them very uncomfortable.
The wine was so strong that they had headaches and made them feel like vomiting, and all of them cried uncontrollably.
I started to miss my days in the fiefdom.
When can I go home?
Come on, Tartars, break up the capital and capture the emperor. This dog emperor is mean and ungrateful and has no regard for family ties. He deserves to die!
The kings howled loudly.
But no one dared to whisper to each other, because hundreds of eunuchs were guarding it. Xu Gan was sitting on the railing, two eunuchs fanned, and two eunuchs caught mosquitoes. He drank herbal tea and admired the ugliness of the kings.
There was also a eunuch who wrote down dragons and snakes to record the behavior of the kings.
Finally, it was collected and handed over to the emperor.
The emperor was also quite wicked and liked to see the ugliness of his relatives.
at this time.
Zhu Qiyu was sitting at the gate of the Qianqing Inner Palace, while Kong Hongxu was kneeling outside the door, trembling.
"Dong Yan Sheng, forcibly moved the Kong family, although I have to bear the infamy."
"But you, the Kong family, are quite honest and obedient."
"I have received a secret message from Lin Cong. The entire Kong family has already set off for Siping City."
Upon hearing this, Kong Hongxu was stunned.
Since you are obedient, why are you asking me to kneel here?
His energy has been particularly low recently. Xiang Sibao even refused to let go of the toothpick. He was almost tortured to death. For the first time, he was afraid of that kind of thing.
"I asked you to come here because I want to move out of your house and go to Huguang."
"The people of Huguang have admired the saint for a long time."
"But there is no divine grace."
"Huguang students are suffering..."
"How about splitting the two houses and moving one to Wuchang Prefecture and the other to Changsha Prefecture."
"Let the people of Huguang see the demeanor of the descendants of the saint."
If Zhu Qiyu wanted to give benefits to the Kong family, he had to ask for them first.
Originally, the top management of the Kong family firmly disagreed with the split of the Kong family, but when the news spread to all the houses, they exploded and went to the ancestral hall to make a fuss.
Those who are from the side branches and concubines are oppressed at home, and they all want to break away and become the eldest boss.
The last time Xi Kong was split up and given the title of Marquis Wenchang, the Kong family had a fight in the ancestral hall, killing people, and even the clan elders could not control it.
Those side branches wish they could all be separated. They are inferior to dogs in the main sect, but when they go to other places, they are like human beings.
"I obey my orders!" Kong Hongxu agreed honestly.
Zhu Qiyu didn't expect it to go so smoothly.
Immediately, the conversation changed: "I forcibly moved the Kong family, which caused chaos in the world. My reputation is absolutely terrible."
"The humble minister is guilty!" Kong Hongxu was so frightened that he peed. What else could the emperor do?
"Don't be impatient, Mr. Yan Sheng, just listen to what I have to say."
"The forced relocation of the Kong family was indeed my own decision. I regret it when I think about it."
"So I thought about giving Kong some compensation."
Is this what the emperor said?
regret? compensate?
Snapped!
Kong Hongxu slapped himself, it hurt, it was not a dream.
"I don't dare ask for extra compensation, I just want to serve your majesty with peace of mind." Kong Hongxu didn't dare to ask for it because he was afraid of being played by the emperor.
In fact, he wanted to say that it would be nice to stop the split and restore it to the original state.
"I plan to crown Kong Sheng as king, and the descendants of Yan Shenggong will be crowned kings!"
hiss!
This is killing my family!
Kong Hongxu's body softened and he lay on the ground: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, I am not worthy of being a king because of my poor fortune. Besides, Yan Shenggong is a rule that has existed since ancient times. How can I be granted the title? I am not worthy of my virtue." I beg you, Your Majesty, to take back your order!"
Take a look at the kings with different surnames in the Ming Dynasty. Are there any alive?
Wang Jue was granted posthumously. How did Xu Da, a living king with a different surname, die?
That's Xu Da, who is he? Can it be compared?
"How dare you not accept my seal?" Zhu Qiyu said in a gloomy tone.
"I can't bear this. Please forgive me!" Kong Hongxu cried non-stop.
Emperor, this is not a reward, this is a punishment!
Believe it or not, if Kong Hongxu accepted this king with a different surname, those literati would have to stab his spine to death. If the legacy of Kong Sheng is used a little less, it will not be able to withstand the disaster.
The emperor is cruel enough. He got into the shit pit himself and dragged Kong into the shit pit with his backhand. He used a saint to block the knife. Can you be a human being!
"I have been reading history books recently and learned about the ins and outs of the Yansheng Dukedom."
"The Duke of Yansheng has been in power for more than a thousand years since Song Renzong."
"And during the Kaiyuan period of the Tang Dynasty, the sage was pursued as King Wenxuan."
"The Emperor Ming of the Tang Dynasty said: 'I have reviewed the pre-examination training and gathered extensive opinions from the public. They all concluded that it is appropriate to follow the old traditions of the Han Dynasty and revolutionize the mistakes of the Tang Dynasty. I have reviewed the past and rectified the name, and have done justice. I remember that the late emperor advocated Confucianism and personally visited the temple, so I began to add The title of the Holy Saint is meant to be extremely respectful. Now that I have compiled it, I will continue to follow the previous aspirations, respect Confucianism and Taoism, and dare not lose sight of it.'"
"I thought about it and followed the wishes of Emperor Ming of the Tang Dynasty and conferred the title of Saint Wenxuan on the throne. Later generations will follow the title of King Wenxuan."
"King Wenxuan, get up."
This is Zhu Qiyu's great gift to Kong.
The gift of being kicked into a shithole.
Those literati, if you continue to scold me, you will have to take the Kong family with you. His family moved to Siping for the sake of King Wenxuan's title. It has nothing to do with me. Don't scold the wrong person.
Woohoo!
Kong Hongxu cried endlessly but refused to get up.
"Prince Wenxuan, please get up." Huaien said sadly.
Kong Hongxu wiped his tears, got up and continued crying.
My family is so obedient, why are you treating my family like this?
My family agreed to forcibly move my family to Siping; to split up Xikong, my family also agreed; and to split up two houses and move them to Huguang, we agreed again.
Why are you still treating my family like this?
What did my family do wrong?
The more Kong Hongxu thought about it, the more he felt aggrieved. But when the cool breeze blew at night, he was on the verge of falling, and he felt even more sad. I am only ten years old, and the dark circles under my eyes are bigger than those of fifty years old. What am I trying to do?
"Your Majesty, Emperor Ming of the Tang Dynasty named the ancestor of Wei Chen King Wenxuan, and his descendants took the posthumous title from the state title and called him Wenxuan Gong."
"Your Majesty, please also grant me the title of Duke Wenxuan, and please take back the royal title!"
"I thank you for your holy grace!"
Kong Hongxu was very familiar with his family's history.
He firmly refused to accept King Wenxuan.
"Huh? I have such a good saying, am I going to go back on my word because of you?"
Zhu Qiyu's tone dropped: "What? Do you still want to change to someone else, King Wenxuan of Xijue?"
Plop!
Kong Hongxu knelt on the ground again.
My brother is only eight years old. After you have done harm to me, are you harming my brother?
Forget it, let me continue to suffer!
Kong Hongxu secretly added four words in his mind: The title is so fragrant.
"Go back and think about your mistakes. You will leave for Siping City in a few days."
"Don't make yourself uncomfortable."
"I gave it to you, and you take it obediently!"
"Don't ask for trouble!"
"roll!"
Zhu Qiyu was furious.
I'm really angry today.
Kong Hongxu outside the door kowtowed to thank him and left the palace crying.
"The prince is not interested. Do you want to go to Mobei to become the Holy Duke of Yan? Continue to kowtow to Dayuan to thank you?"
"Reminiscing about things from the previous dynasty, the Ming Dynasty has raised you for almost a hundred years, are you still not well-fed?"
The more Zhu Qiyu thought about it, the angrier he became: "Send an order to Lin Cong to speed up the migration! Don't be afraid of death!"
"We will arrive in Liaodong within five days!"
"Slow down, no need to keep it!"
"If Lin Cong can't do it, I will take off Lin Cong's head!"
Feng Xiao knelt on the ground: "I will go and deliver the order right away."
"Where are the White Soul Army?"
"Back to your lord, Uncle Ping Jiang has sent a message that he has arrived at Hejian Mansion!" Feng Xiao reported back.
"Speed up and join forces with Yu Qian. The regiment and camp in Lin Cong's hands will be given to Chen Yu to reorganize and form another army. If there are not enough, we will recruit from the refugees and station them temporarily in Shandong."
Zhu Qiyu's eyes flickered: "For the time being, Chen Yu will serve as the commander-in-chief and will be under the control of Lin Cong."
"Urge Xiang Zhong again to quickly lead the Wei army to Shandong and temporarily station it in Jinan Prefecture."
"Establish another army and name it Fei Xiong, the commander-in-chief..."
Zhu Qiyu hesitated to choose the commander-in-chief.
"Has Sun Yuanzhen entered Beijing?" Zhu Qiyu suddenly asked Feng Xiao.
"Back to the emperor, Sun Shangshu has arrived in the capital and will enter the capital soon."
Sun Yuanzhen was the Minister of War in the third year of Jingtai. He had guarded Fujian in the past few years and was transferred to Beijing some time ago.
This person was Zhu Qiyu's internal candidate for Minister of War.
"He is old and cannot run around too much."
Zhu Qiyu thought about it repeatedly: "Take Guo Jing, Song Rang, and Chen Zhi as the commander-in-chief of the Flying Bear Army."
"Your Majesty, no!"
Feng Xiao knelt on the ground: "These three people are the emperor's confidants. They are in charge of the imperial guards so that the emperor can sit firmly in the center."
"If they are transferred to another place, the imperial guards will have no one to lead, and the emperor will have no confidants to use. In case..."
"What's more, these three fathers and brothers all hold important positions. If they are all reused, the lintel will be too glorious and will not be a blessing to the ministers."
"Slave, please use it with caution, Your Majesty."
Yes, these three people are the hostages left in the palace by Guo Deng, Song Cheng, Song Wei, and Chen Xun.
If you are released from the palace, people outside may not be loyal.
Li Jin and Chen Shao cannot be sent out, but must stay with them to defend the center.
"It would be great if Xu Guishang could fight." Zhu Qiyu sighed, after all, he lacked generals.
"For the time being, let Chen Yu also write it."
"Let's talk about it after we get back to Beijing."
"Put your chariot in charge of the Qian Palace."
Zhu Qiyu went to Chengqian Palace to lay down his pillow.
Morning next day.
After two days away from Fengtian Hall, Zhu Qiyu found that if he didn't sit in this seat for a day, he would feel upset and uncomfortable.
This is the charm of power.
"Let's all be flat."
"Well, the kings miss me very much, so they want to stay in the capital for a while and get together with me often."
"I have ordered the Ministry of Industry to build the Hundred Princes' Palace outside Andingmen."
"Generals at all levels in the clan must participate in this year's examination."
"The Ministry of Etiquette has begun preparations for the examination, and the date is set for June 15th."
The ministers in Fengtian Palace clicked their tongues.
When it comes to ruthlessness, it depends on the emperor.
That's all for forcing the kings to come to the capital. You can give them a good place to live. At least they should live in the Tenth Prince's Mansion.
It would be better for you to settle outside Andingmen. There are slums there, where beggars and homeless people live.
It is estimated that two guard posts will be set up to keep a close eye on the kings.
If there is any trouble, you will be aware of it.
Emperor Taizong is not as ruthless as you.
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
Hu Xi said, "Your Majesty, whose expenses are spent by the kings in Beijing?"
hiss!
There are really as many ministers as there are emperors!
You have controlled all the other kings, and you still have to give them some food and drink!
"Your Majesty, the household department is not well off." Geng Jiuchou said with a heartbroken look on his face.
"Look at how stingy you are. The kings have hundreds of millions in their fiefdoms. Will they care about this little money?"
Zhu Qiyu sneered: "You are really embarrassing me and making fun of all the kings in the world!"
You are still ruthless!
Not only imprisoning the kings, the kings had to pay for food and drink themselves.
Does the money for building the mansion also have to be paid for by others?
"The Ministry of Industry, all expenses for the construction of the Hundred Princes' Mansion must be recorded, and then reported to the kings for them to pay."
really!
Not only are you mean and unkind to civil servants, but you are even more cruel to your relatives.
Now I feel mentally balanced.
"After building the Hundred Princes' Palace, we will build the General's Palace. Build more. I have many relatives. When I become a capital official in the future, I will always have to live there."
From what you say, do you not plan to release me from Beijing?
Those who are in the fifth server will not be released from the capital, and those who are out of the fifth server will go to local officials to work. Those who pass the exam will have their clan salary suspended, and those who fail the exam will have their clan salary confiscated.
If you can give birth, you can raise them yourself.
Don't bother me, I don't have money to support you bunch of losers.
"We use the best materials, purchased from all over the country, and all the laborers who are recruited are paid."
"It's magnificent and magnificent. As long as it doesn't violate the rules, we only choose the most expensive and best products."
"The land needs to be large, leaving room for them to build gardens. If there are many houses, leave room for a few large gardens."
"Give the people more money for the requisitioned land, and then select some abandoned land and distribute it to them. We can't let the people suffer."
"Outside Anding Gate is called Baiwang City. The city walls are built high, using the best bricks, the best materials, gold bricks, etc. The streets are wide and the best stones are used to build the roads. Anyway, all the money Get all the kings to come out."
"Anyway, you are going to die. The kings have money, so don't save it for them. They are all so rich that they bloom."
"Made the City of Hundred Kings into a magnificent state. Kuai Xiang personally designed and led the construction. Drum towers, markets, temples, schools, etc. were all built according to the most luxurious regulations. Everything in the capital was built. All must be built.”
"Kuai Xiang has designed the drawings and shows them to the kings. They must be satisfied."
"I will advance the money first. When the construction is completed, I will go to them with the account book to ask for the account."
hiss!
When it comes to black heart, it depends on the emperor.
You go to death to build a city of hundreds of kings. The kings think that they don’t spend any money, so they must also be thinking of building a city of hundreds of kings to go to death.
As a result, when the construction was completed, the emperor took the account book and asked for the accounts.
All the kings were dumbfounded. Did I spend my own money on this thing? Then I made a fool of myself! I can live with it just fine!
"When there is slack time in farming, let the people in the capital go to work, and the wages will be determined by the Ministry of Labor and Industry. We will give the people more benefits and let them get more benefits."
"The Ministry of Works cannot provide services to the kings for free. It also has to give money. The money will be provided by the kings. The salary during the construction period will also be provided by the kings. I will not go out."
"Don't look at the kings pretending to be pitiful in front of me. In the fiefdom, they are all extremely rich. I eat pickles every day, and they only eat duck tongue every time. They throw away the duck and feed it to the dogs!"
"If they don't prepare a hundred dishes for a meal, they can't show off the royal style."
"Look, I've been wearing a dragon robe for four or five years."
"Their clothes can be changed a hundred times a day."
"Everyone has money!"
"Ke Jinzao, the flowers bloomed!"
"Build them their own homes, there should be no ambiguity."
"Pick the best and most expensive in the world, build it for them, and let them spend it."
"Let's see who dares to owe me money?"
"When one day, whoever dares to default on my account, I will let their whole family work on the construction site and pay me back until the money is paid off!"
Zhu Qiyu's eyes were sinister.
The courtier's eyes were opened.
I heard that all the kings were injured last night and are still kneeling in Qianqing Palace. Whoever lies down will be whipped.
Now the palace is empty again.
Do you want to turn all the kings into paupers and let them be at your mercy?
If you treat your relatives like this, I'm afraid you will be scolded again.
"Your Majesty, if any of the kings refuse to pay, then you will not lose money." Hu Hui meant that the kings should pay first.
Look at how reluctant you are to invest.
If you don't want to let go of your children, you can't trap the wolf. Let's invest first and we can always make money.
"Old Master, the kings have no money. The king of Korea has money, the king of Japan has money, the king of Annan has money, and the king of Hami also has money. Once the house is built, it can be sold."
The courtiers were convinced.
What the emperor meant was that those who had no money would not be allowed to live there, and then they would be sold to other kings.
It's not a loss after all.
"Your Majesty is wise!" Hu Hui kowtowed.
The courtiers followed the mountain and shouted long live the mountain.
Shi Pu is happy, which is a good thing.
The Ministry of Engineering is going to make a fortune again. If you do a little bit of engineering work, money will pour into your pockets.
After the Hundred Princes' Mansion was built, the money coming in was enough to build a Forbidden City.
"Forget about the kings, I have sent eunuchs to take over the palace and ordered the kings to escort them into the capital. This matter is settled."
"Talk about Liaodong."
"The Haraqin tribe has already attacked Shenyang. Li Xian reported back secretly that the Jurchens had no intention of uniting with the Ming Dynasty, but instead wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight."
"The Tatar Mandulu Khan is moving south, aiming for Daning."
"Gentlemen, please tell me your opinion."
The cabinet discussed it yesterday.
Wang Wei left the squad, saluted, and said: "Your Majesty, although the Karaqin tribe has 50,000 elite soldiers, they cannot break the Liaodong defense line."
"Wei Chen believes that we should ask the Taibao troops to move to Daning and coordinate with Jizhou Town to defend Daning."
"Summer is coming, and the weather is getting hotter and muggier. Mantulu's march south should be just a show of force, not a war."
"So when Taibao moves to Jizhou Town, Mandulu will naturally retreat."
"Then we can invite Taibao to move to Liaodong and repel the Karaqin tribe."
After clearing the court.
The collaboration between the cabinet and the ministry is extremely efficient. Unlike in the past, when something went wrong, you would just blame this person and scold that person. Now, you can directly come up with countermeasures and issue imperial edicts directly after discussing them together.
Zhu Qiyu nodded slightly: "Wang Qing's words are very true. I also thought Mantulu was just a false shot."
"Firstly, it is to show force, and secondly, it is to take advantage of it."
"Zhang Gu led the Jiefan Army and settled in Jizhou. There are about 45,000 people in Jizhou Town."
"There is also the danger of the Great Wall and the city."
"I thought Daning couldn't be broken..."
But the emperor was not finished.
Hu Xi then knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, Daning is endangering the capital, so no mistakes can be made. I ask your majesty to follow the advice of the cabinet and transfer the Taibao to Jizhou. Daning will not allow any mistakes!"
Yu Qian's soldiers were human beings. They walked from Shandong to Jizhou and finished fighting. Then they walked from Jizhou to Liaodong and still had to fight.
There will probably be a lot of complaints and there is a possibility of mutiny.
Yu Qian was shocked, but told them to switch to fighting with Karaqin without even thinking about it.
It is equivalent to saying that you can only be beaten passively.
"What if the Henan Bei Cao Army is transferred to Daning?" Zhu Qiyu asked tentatively.
By doing so, he put the capital in the tiger's mouth.
"Your Majesty, please bear with your anger for a moment. When your troops are well-prepared next year, you can sweep across the grassland."
Hu Xi smiled bitterly and said: "Don't you want to include Liaodong into the territory of the Ming Dynasty? Next year, you can send troops out of the Great Wall to attack Haraqin, Wuliangha, and capture the territory of Duoyan and Sanwei."
Zhu Qiyu's eyes lit up: "Old Master, are you serious about this?"
"As long as your Majesty guards Daning, I will agree!" Hu Bi also spent a lot of money.
Now, the national strength is far less than it was in the orthodox years.
In the Zhengtong Dynasty, after four generations of holy kings, the treasury was full, the soldiers were well-supplied, and the dynasty was full of generals who were good at conquering and fighting. However, Zhu Qizhen defeated Tumubao and lost all his family wealth.
It has only been eight years now, and the treasury has just accumulated some food. At the beginning of the year, a great victory was announced, but it was all gone again.
Fortunately, the emperor is calm enough. As long as Duoyan's three guards are able to hold on to the dangerous terrain, he will live a hard life for a few more years.
At least the emperor's thoughts of putting the capital in danger will be calmed. The capital must not be turbulent and must be firmly guarded.
"What if the Jingying camp in Yu Qian's hands is split?" Zhu Qiyu still didn't give up.
He believed that Mantulu did not have the strength to break Daning.
Although Jizhou Town has few soldiers, it is close to the capital, and the capital camp can rush to Daning at any time.
So he wanted Yu Qian to go to Liaodong to fight against the Karaqin tribe.
Push back the Kalaqin tribe, and then take the opportunity to attack and harass Wuliangha. The troops advance northward and still have some remaining strength.
The weakness of this approach is that the capital has no troops to defend it. Once Daning is defeated, the capital will be in danger and the world will be in danger of overthrowing.
"Absolutely not!" Hu Hui refused to agree even if he died. He couldn't besiege Beijing again, even if it was possible!
All the important ministers of the cabinet knelt down.
All the courtiers in Fengtian Palace knelt down and did not allow the emperor to do whatever he wanted.
The last time such a willful emperor was Zhu Qizhen, he did not listen to the advice of his ministers and insisted on conquering the emperor himself. As a result, he was probably captured.
"Okay, I'll listen to the cabinet's opinion."
Zhu Qiyu sighed: "Pass an order, order Yu Taibao to lead troops into Daning and garrison in Daning."
"It is conveyed to Li Xian that in an emergency, the three armies of Bai Qian, Beiwei and Feixiong stationed in Shandong can be mobilized to assist in the defense of Liaodong."
"Your Majesty, your Majesty!" Hu Bi breathed a sigh of relief.
The cabinet ministers all breathed a sigh of relief.
This is the best answer, and Daning cannot afford to miss it.
Even if Liaodong is defeated, Daning must be defended.
If Daning is here, the capital will not be in danger.
"Ask Li Xian to bribe the Uliangha people and Jurchens. As long as they can put pressure on the Haraqin tribe later, I will increase the trade quota."
Zhu Qiyu considered it and said: "Sell them weapons."
"Your Majesty..." Wang Wei was moved.
In order to understand Li Xian's pressure, the emperor was even willing to sell weapons directly.
"Sell!"
Zhu Qiyu gritted his teeth: "In exchange for Karaqin's head, I don't want money or horses, I just want the head!"
"Except firearms, all weapons are for sale!"
"Your Majesty..." Wang Wei wanted to persuade.
"Wang Wei, I know that weapons should not be given lightly."
Zhu Qiyu waved his hand: "But it's not easy for Li Xian and Cao Yi. They are facing 50,000 elite soldiers. It is a great achievement to be able to hold on!"
"I have to give them hope. I cannot let them think that the central government has given up on Liaodong. The people of Liaodong must also have hope in order to persevere."
"Tell Cao Yi that after this battle, I will make him a marquis."
"Li Xian can also choose to return to the center and be promoted."
"Tell them that I understand their difficulties and allow them to retreat strategically. As long as they defend Liaodong, it will be a great achievement!"
"We will then send a batch of money and food from the capital, give lots of rewards to the soldiers and civilians, and give them a full meal. If they unfortunately die in battle, it will be considered a small favor to the central government."
Zhu Qiyu gritted his teeth and said, "I will have to settle this account sooner or later!"
"Your Majesty, your Majesty!" The courtier knelt down.
Civil servants and generals who have led troops all know a truth. It is not difficult to fight on the front line. The difficult thing is how to make the emperor trust him.
The greatest advantage of today's emperor is that he absolutely delegates power and gives the greatest trust during wartime. He never dictates or makes decisions haphazardly. The layman guides the expert.
"Let Li Jie and Cao Zhen deliver the order in person."
"Look at their fathers and ancestors, how difficult it is to guard the border, so that they can serve the court diligently in the future."
"Tell Li Xian and Cao Yi that I am in the court and caring about them."
"I also tell the people of Liaodong that I will not give up on them."
Zhu Qiyu sighed.
After all, the stalls were spread too large, causing the troops to be stretched thin.
But we can no longer recruit troops. The Ming Dynasty produces a certain amount of money and food every year, and there are also a number of small households. If there are more, the court's money and food will not be enough, and the people will delay farming.
We are short of money, food and people.
Nothing is missing.
"I'm not worried about Northwest. With Fan Guang, Kou Shen, and Guo Deng, Wala can't beat them."
"I'm just worried about the Northeast."
"I hope Li Xian and Cao Yi can defend Liaodong, and wait until Yu Taibao goes to Liaodong."
"That's all, it's useless for me to worry."
"Your Majesty."
Zhu Qiyu took a breath and said, "It's time for Huguang to be managed."
"Let me tell you the truth. The kings can no longer leave the capital, and the constraints in Huguang are completely gone."
"I have said before that the time has not yet come to govern Huguang."
"But the time has come today!"
"I have ordered Kong to move out two houses, move one house to Wuchang Mansion, and move one house to Changsha Mansion."
"Split Huguang into Hubei and Hunan."
"The area of Huguang is too large to be managed easily."
"After the split, it will be easier to govern and manage."
"Then I sent capable ministers from the court to govern Huguang for me."
"At the beginning, Zhu Ying told me that it would take three years for Shandong to be brought under control."
"Huguang is different from Shandong. It has been desolate for too long."
"I will give you ten years to see a large granary in the Central Plains. The food produced in Huguang can support the world's food."
"The ministers come forward, who is willing to govern Huguang!"
Zhu Qiyu glanced at the ministers with his tiger eyes.
"Wei Chen is willing to govern Huguang!" Han Yong took the lead.
Wang Yue, Ye Sheng, and Nian Fu all stepped forward.
"You are all talented people, and I can't bear to have you leave the capital."
Zhu Qiyu's eyes were filled with joy: "Moreover, just governing a province is an understatement for you."
But looking around, the best of the capable ministers of the Jingtai Dynasty are all in the middle of the court.
Zhu Qiyu was reluctant to let anyone out.
"Your Majesty, the edge of a sword is sharpened, and talents also need experience before they can become great talents." Han Yongzhen wanted to go to Beijing.
Although the emperor valued him very much, he was so busy that he hit the back of his head in the capital.
But it made him very uneasy.
When he examines himself three times, he always feels that nothing has been gained, his talents have not been put to use, and his abilities have not grown.
But I am so busy every day that I have no time to eat.
The emperor also valued him very much, and he was grateful in his heart.
But I also want to go somewhere and express my ambitions.
"Han Yong, do you know where you are in the distribution bureau?"
"Although his official position is not high, he has great real power. Even if he is an important cabinet minister, he may not have more real power than you."
"Are you really willing to give up such a good position and go somewhere to suffer?"
Zhu Qiyu was puzzled.
"To be honest with you, Your Majesty, I want to become a general and become a prime minister, and I want to make my name go down in history."
Han Yong said generously: "If you only serve as a capable minister for one day, and a weak minister as a doctor in the distribution bureau, and steadily rise, you can also join the cabinet one day."
“But it’s very difficult to be famous in history.”
"Only by making achievements at the local level and then returning to the central government, His Majesty often said that officials must have actual achievements. When the ministers enter the central government based on their local performance, they will be able to become generals and prime ministers."
"Only when you show your ambition can you be remembered in history."
"This is my humble minister's wish. Please fulfill it, Your Majesty!"
Han Yong said it very generously.
Zhu Qiyu's face was full of approval: "Han Yong, you are ambitious! You are worthy of being a talent that I value very much. Well, if you go to Huguang for ten years, I will allow you to join the Cabinet and become a general and prime minister!"
"Even if I am no longer here, please remember this sentence. In ten years, you, Han Yong, will become an important minister in the cabinet and your name will go down in history!"
"Hunan and Hubei, you choose!"
"I have appointed you as governor, and I will take control of the military and administrative affairs. I will not restrict you, as long as you make actual achievements."
"I want to see the results and see a prosperous Huguang!"
"Whatever you want, I will allow you. If I don't have it, I will go out and grab it for you, and I will satisfy you!"
"how?"
Zhu Qiyu looked at Han Yong with appreciation.
Han Yong kowtowed respectfully: "Thank you for your attention, but ten years is too long. It only takes three to five years for your majesty to see a prosperous Hunan!"
He chooses the harder one.
Hubei has a strong foundation, but Hunan is very poor and has many mountains. There are many unnaturalized natives in it, which is difficult to deal with.
It can be seen that Han Yong wants to find a way out of becoming a prime minister.
There are many opportunities to fight in Hunan, and he can be gentle with the natives, and his contribution is greater than that of governing Hubei.
"Okay! Be ambitious!"
"I don't force you to do anything. As long as you complete it within ten years, I will grant you anything you ask for!"
"Based on your merits, I will let your descendants live with the country!"
Zhu Qiyu said loudly: "My lords, no matter who you are, as long as you can make great achievements, even if you don't get a title, I will allow him to be rich and noble for hundreds of years!"
"I thank your Majesty for your kindness!" Han Yongyun was a handsome man, Wen Yunwu.
Zhu Qiyu attaches great importance to him.
I really don't want to let him go out of Beijing.
"Whatever you want, go and tell the Ministry of Cabinet, and I will agree to it."
"Hunan is up to you."
"I also know that Hunan is already poor and harassed by natives, making it difficult to govern."
"But the harder it is, the more important it is."
"When you go somewhere, if you need anything, please give me a secret report at any time, and I will allow you to do so."
Zhu Qiyu stood up excitedly.
Han Yongque's words were not shocking, but he continued to die: "Your Majesty, I want to rebuild the Hunan Guards."
Although he is the governor, his military power is very sensitive.
You haven't gone to Hunan yet, and you need to go to the health center. What are you going to do?
"allow!"
Zhu Qiyu didn't care at all: "You can re-conquer the military households, or you can abolish the military households and recruit soldiers from the people. I agree. I will take the money from the central government."
"How many people should be recruited? There are natives in Hunan and natives from Yunnan and Guizhou. It is not easy to manage, so let's set up three armies."
"If you still need it, you can give me a secret message at any time, and I will allow you."
hiss!
The people in Fengtian Palace looked at each other in confusion. Is this still the emperor?
Everyone knows how much the emperor values military power, but the emperor approved the three armies of Han and Yong in one go, that is 45,000 people!
What if Han Yong rebels?
Isn't he worried?
The emperor was generous, but Han Yong did not dare to agree.
He is not a fool. He recruits three armies at once. The sky is high and the emperor is far away. What is he going to do?
Even if he is loyal, what will he do if someone blind puts a yellow robe on him and Huangdi's crotch falls?
"Your Majesty, please send three honorable ministers to Hunan along with the minor ministers."
Han Yong is sensible.
How could Zhu Qiyu not be on guard?
The newly recruited soldiers must be branded with Zhu Qiyu's mark, otherwise who are they?
Can he sleep peacefully?
"Let's consider the candidates later. You go to Hunan first, and the people behind will arrive later." The emperor wanted to separate them and not allow them to collude with each other.
Don't forget, there are also guarding eunuchs.
There are eunuchs in each army, and there are also eunuchs in local areas.
It would be difficult for Han Yong to rebel, not to mention why did Han Yong rebel?
The emperor valued him so much, and he was a great talent. The road to the future was a prosperous road, he would leave his name in history, and his descendants would live with the country. What was the purpose of rebellion?
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!" Han Yong was already very satisfied.
He took the initiative to ask for conscription to test the emperor to see where the emperor's boundaries were, but the emperor told him that there were no boundaries and he was open to play.
As long as Hunan can be managed well, if you want the moon, I will send it to you.
"Wei Chen, please go to Hubei!" Nian Fu stood up.
Zhu Qiyu also couldn't bear to be rich in old age.
This is another minister of the prime minister and auxiliary, a capable person with both civil and military talents.
"Nianfu, I also plan to let you take over the distribution bureau."
Zhu Qiyu sighed: "You are all my Zhuge Liang. I don't want you to go, but since you want to go, it means you have made up your mind."
"Same as Han Yong, I will grant you whatever you want, and I want to see great rule of Hubei!"
"Whatever you do is up to you."
"Even if you want to reform the system, please give me a secret report. As long as it is reasonable and reasonable, I will agree to it."
The rich man kowtows respectfully: "I am still young. I want to go somewhere for some experience, and then return to the center to make suggestions for His Majesty and serve His Majesty."
"Han Gong chose Hunan and gave up the fertile Hubei to Wei Chen."
"Your Majesty, please rest assured. Within three years, Hubei will definitely be under great rule!"
"I just ask Your Majesty to allow some sinners to be given to minor officials."
Nianfu wanted those sinners in Shandong official circles.
These people want to fill the Loop.
Going to Hubei will be cheaper for them.
"Nian Fu, if you want it, I will give it to you."
"But these people are sinners, and their descendants are not allowed to take part in the imperial examinations or serve as officials."
"This needs to be agreed upon in advance."
Zhu Qiyu always kills these sinners.
Not used to it.
Don't want to use it either.
"Wei Chen understands." Nian Fu wiped the sweat from his forehead.
These sinners in Shandong's officialdom are at least well-educated people. Even if they are officials, they are also experienced people and are very familiar with the routines of officialdom.
Hubei is different from other places, with refugees and bandits everywhere.
It is better to use sinners to govern them than to use Jin scholars.
When sinners govern bad people, it's easy to catch them.
Han Yong glanced at Nian Fu. In terms of boldness, he has to look at you. He also covets these sinners.
"No need to worry about money and food. All the wealth of the kings of Huguang belongs to you."
"I have already disparaged the four kings of Huguang."
"The King of Min was demoted to the King of Wugang, the King of Liao was demoted to the King of Jingzhou, the King of Chu withdrew his vassal, and the King of Jing remained the same, but the property was returned to the public."
"So, when you arrive in Huguang, first send people to occupy the palace. The wealth will be yours and will be used to govern Huguang."
"I will send factory guards to follow you."
"Whoever dares to touch this money will be killed without mercy!"
"Even the general of the country can be killed!"
"When we arrive in Huguang, we must first use the vassal king to establish authority. How to establish authority in the officialdom? Don't you need me to teach you?"
"Kill whoever deserves to be killed, don't be vague, and don't worry about who has any background."
"I am your backstage!"
"I will kill anyone who dares to deal with you!"
"Those relatives in the royal palace can confiscate their homes and exterminate their clans if they want. The money will be used to govern Huguang."
"Han Yong, Nian Fu, I will give you the greatest authority. Within ten years, you will see an extremely wealthy Huguang!"
"I hope to hear that Huguang is familiar with the world!"
"Huguang has become the granary of the Ming Dynasty, the granary of my sweeping across Mobei and dominating Annan!"
"Can it be done?"
Zhu Qiyu's eyes were burning.
"Weichen is confident that he can do it!" Han Yong and Nian Fu said in unison.
Both of them are great talents, and it would be a shame to put them in Huguang.
"Okay, go get ready, say goodbye to your family, and set off the day after tomorrow."
Zhu Qiyu warned again: "I will hold a banquet in Qianqing Palace on the day you come back and personally welcome you. I wish you a safe journey."
"I bid farewell to Your Majesty!" Han Yong and Nian Fu knelt on the ground and bowed respectfully before leaving the palace.
"Two more talented people have gone to the place."
Zhu Qiyu looked sad: "Minister of the Cabinet, please help them. If they go to clean up the place, they will definitely offend many people. The Ministry of War will send guards to them to protect them personally, and send imperial doctors to accompany them to prevent them from getting sick."
"This Ming Dynasty, if there were more Han Yongs and more years of wealth, it would really be peaceful."
"Why should I worry about my hair turning gray?"
"Nothing can happen to them."
Zhu Qiyu wiped his tears.
The ministers of Fengtian Hall kowtowed.
Knowing that the emperor was trying to win people's hearts, he felt warm in his heart.
"Your Majesty, I have something to tell you!" Bai Gui said suddenly.
"Say!" Zhu Qiyu gathered his thoughts.
Bai Gui said: "Your Majesty, the government has recruited folk miracle doctors to come to Beijing, which has resulted in a shortage of doctors in many places. Many people have died from treatment. There are some bad voices among the people, saying that your Majesty is in bad luck!"
"snort!"
Zhu Qiyu sneered: "Those useless people, what's the use of living?"
"If you die, you will die! There is no pity!"
"Curse me, let them curse me."
"When there is a severe shortage of doctors among the people, some people will naturally go to study medicine."
"It's useless for me to force others to learn medicine. Only when they know the difficulties and that they can't do it without a doctor will some people take the initiative to learn medicine."
"Don't worry about them."
"The cabinet has issued a decree that doctors should be removed from humble households and converted into civilian households so that they can participate in the imperial examination."
Zhu Qiyu smiled strangely.
"Your Majesty, this move will inevitably lead to fewer and fewer people studying medicine..." Bai Gui made a mistake.
"I just want the people to have no doctors."
"Anyway, the people who can treat patients are all gentry and wealthy people, or they are high-ranking officials."
"If they want to cure diseases, they should learn it themselves!"
"Anyway, with their brains, it only takes a few days to learn medical skills. It's too late."
"I believe them."
Zhu Qiyu just wanted to force people all over the world to study medicine.
Things are rare and valuable.
Don't think of the ancients as fools. People's hearts tend to be profitable, and they always do things that are beneficial.
"Let the economics factory print more medical books again."
"Let it be sold among the people."
“The prices range from high to low, making it affordable for ordinary people.”
"Relax the issuance of medical licenses."
"It won't take long for there to be more private doctors."
Zhu Qiyu smiled.
"Your Majesty is wise!" Bai Gui wanted to say, Your Majesty is really harmed.
You are forcing the world's literati to study medicine.
However, we also hope that ordinary people will study medicine and improve their lintels.
"Feng Xiao, tell Taiyuan Hospital to compile more medical books and compile a few in vernacular so that the people can understand them."
"Also let the imperial doctors of the imperial hospital select some good medical talents from the people and follow them to study medicine."
Zhu Qiyu said: "Let the classics factory print them again, use the cheapest paper and ink, and sell them cheaper so that the people can afford them and let them learn by themselves."
"How many down-and-out scholars are there in the country?"
"With their ability, they can learn a few medical skills at their fingertips. It won't delay them from taking the imperial examination, and they can make extra money. Why not?"
"It won't take long before there will be more private doctors."
I took care of some trivial matters before going down to court.
When Yu Yan entered the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Qiyu looked around, all kneeling.
The kings were crooked, her knees were swollen, painful and sleepy, and there were still injuries on their bodies. No one cured.
Instead, if someone falls, it will be a whip.
The eunuchs were unambiguous no matter what they were king.
"See Your Majesty!" The kings were weak.
"But all you want?" Zhu Qiyu stood above the Royal Mo, looking at them high.
"Wechen didn't want to return to the land, so he wanted to stay in Beijing and serve His Majesty!" Wang Wang cried.
The kings are echo.
If you don't want to go back, if you talk about it, you will die here.
"But true?" Zhu Qiyu was weird.
"All are sincere, all are sincere." The kings were miserable.
Zhu Qiyu nodded slightly: "Since the kings really want to serve me, then it will be full of filial piety.
"Someday to see you annoying, then go back to the ground."
The king's eyes were released.
In the blink of an eye, it was burst.
I am annoyed, not the place of return, but to hell.
"The kings are exhausted, so go back and rest."
Zhu Qiyu said in a crushed: "After the king of Zheng returned, he practiced well, and when he was busy, he still had to watch."
"Wechen follows the purpose!" King Zheng cried.
You can't be bullied by the family!
Bull more bullying the far away kings.
Zhu Qiyu glanced at him, and the kings were distant, and the king was caught.
There is no ability, and you have to eat the noble meal of Tianhuang. It is feasible here.
This person, everyone should show their own value. Those who are worthless, live 100 years old, and cannot create value for Daming, it is better to take a step as soon as possible.
"Zhao Hui stays, let others go back."
Zhao Hui, who had just got up, kneeled on the ground when he heard this.
Why do you still toss me?
Seeing that the horse Wang Yi and Shi Yan left, Zhao Hui could only cry.
