Fengtian Temple fell into a stalemate.
The ministers opposed the emperor's marriage with natives of various ethnic groups, and I am afraid they would also oppose the marriage with the Mobei Tatars.
This is the integrity of Ming Dynasty.
"Gentlemen, I want to do something for the border areas!" Zhu Qiyu sighed.
Yu Qian knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Your Majesty is wise, brave, self-denial and dedicated to the public. He is already a model of a wise king."
"Although it is difficult to convert the native people into Han Dynasty, our Ming Dynasty is full of people, and our ministers are as capable as crucian carp crossing the river."
"If you use marriage to insult your lord, the lord will humiliate his ministers and die, and our ministers will stand shamelessly in the Fengtian Palace!"
Yu Qian made a splash.
He firmly opposed the emperor's condescension and marriage with native women.
"What's more, if your Majesty shows kindness to the natives."
"Will the married families rely on their royal relatives to become bigger in the local area and become chieftains?"
"By then, although it will be Sinicized, it will still be China."
"In order to please the emperor's relatives, local officials must deceive at every level. When our country's national power weakens, they will definitely become members of Baiyue, Annan, and Korea!"
"Therefore, I am firmly opposed to showing favor to the natives!"
Yu Qian spoke eloquently: "The natives are just like the other tribes in Mobei, fearing power but not being virtuous."
"But the natives are weak, their troops are not strong, and they do not have a strong ruler."
"It relies on the famous mountains and rivers, and it only relies on the rugged terrain."
"But since the Western Jin Dynasty when Yiguan moved south, we Han people have been exploring the south, constantly transforming the land into Han, and compressing the living space of the native people."
"But if you look closely, the reason is that the Central Plains were lost, and the Han people had to rebuild their homes outside the Central Plains, so they developed the south."
"Nowadays, our Ming Dynasty Central Plains is full of beauty, prosperous, and the people are happy. Naturally, the government and the public are slack, so they are unwilling to expand their living area."
"Weichen suggested that the court should be used as ideological guidance."
"It is not appropriate to forcibly move people there. Instead, we should do it for the sake of profit. Tell the people that there are opportunities to make a fortune in the border areas and encourage them to voluntarily migrate there."
"Encourage local areas to carry out commerce, cultivate the soil, moisten things quietly, and Hanize the native people."
Listen to Yu Qian's talk.
Zhu Qiyu nodded. To put it bluntly, it is the concept of speculation. Speculating on jade in Yunnan and speculating on tourism in Guangxi are all the same.
If people's hearts are drawn to benefits and benefits, people will naturally flock to them.
Yu Qian changed the topic: "Your Majesty forcefully recruits the gentry from all over the world to fill the frontier."
"Have you ever thought that you are expanding the reach of the gentry?"
"Originally, the gentry of the country has become too big to lose its weight. The scholars of those gentry families are giving advice on the government and are dissatisfied with the government and the opposition."
"His Majesty used strong methods to forcibly relocate the gentry, causing great sorrow throughout the world."
"As everyone knows, the gentry family may be very happy. If you move to the border areas as a common people, they will naturally become a big family in the border areas if they have money, food and connections."
"When you are on the border, how can you not train your servants to be armed?"
"If you have money, scholars, and military skills, given time, won't the Tang Dynasty feudal towns reappear?"
hiss!
Everyone in the court gasped in air.
As soon as Yu Qian became an honorable minister, he turned around and dealt a fatal blow to the gentry class.
Zhu Qiyu's eyes lit up, this is Yu Qian!
Although he was forced to enter Wu Xun, he spoke from the standpoint of Wu Xun.
From Wenxun to Wuxun, no one knows the horror of the gentry better than him.
He dared to say today to repay the emperor's kindness of not killing.
Not only did the emperor not kill him, he also gave him unparalleled grace and told the world that I have a broad mind.
When Yu Qian's words are spread today, those literati among the people who praise Yu Qian will definitely be shocked and probably want to turn around and scold Yu Qian.
"What do you think?" Zhu Qiyu looked at the ministers.
Ye Sheng immediately said: "Even though your Majesty's method of forcibly recruiting gentry is excessive, it can quickly fill the population in the border areas, especially in bitter and cold places like Liaoning."
"If ordinary people immigrate there, let alone the huge cost, just say that the people are illiterate and there is a risk of becoming barbaric."
"If the gentry has money and food, they force immigrants to do so. The central government does not have to bear the immigration costs, it only needs to divide the land."
"So immigrating the gentry is the optimal solution."
Ye Sheng changed the subject: "But what Duke Xing said is not alarmist."
"Wei Chen believes that we should follow the trend, weaken the armed forces of the gentry all over the world, strictly prohibit private service, and force the private service of the gentry into the capital and charge them into the capital camp."
"In this way, no matter how big the gentry becomes, they will only suffer from scabies and will not become a serious problem on the frontier."
Another hard one!
Don't gentry families want to cultivate servants?
Once discovered, the servants were transferred to the capital camp and worked as military households, regardless of the reason.
Ye Sheng is talking about the gentry in the world.
If these words spread, Ye Sheng is afraid that he will cut himself off from the gentry class.
"Your Majesty, the gentry can become big in a local area, but in the final analysis it is a monopoly!"
Wang Hong kowtowed and said, "Scholars have a monopoly on knowledge, and only the children of a scholar's family can become a high school scholar."
"As long as Your Majesty lowers the price of books, promotes the simple drawings invented by His Majesty, compiles enlightenment books into scripts, develops opera, simple drawings, and lowers the price of paper, ink, pen and inkstone, the knowledge monopoly will naturally be broken."
"Secondly, there's the land."
"Gentry families control local land."
"For example, Lao Chen's family has thousands of acres of land under its name, which is not much. But if you look closely, hum, the land of Lao Chen's family covers the entire Jiangxia!"
"These lands are all affiliated. Even the old minister doesn't know whether it is the land of my Wang family or the land of the local gentry family affiliated to my family."
"I don't even know, hum, you tell me."
Wang Hongsha went crazy!
Directly self-destruct!
"Third, it's relationships!"
"Back when the old minister was in Fengtian Palace, he killed Ma Shun in anger and became famous all over the world."
"Your Majesty, please think about how this veteran became famous?"
"It depends on relationships!"
"Even if I don't want to become famous through this, some people will push me and force me to become famous."
"You also know that since the old minister killed Ma Shun, he has not been favored by the king. The old minister worked diligently in the Imperial Palace, but he has been the imperial censor for more than ten years!"
"Will this fame help me? Or will it harm me?"
Wang Hong is really crazy!
Use your own examples to analyze the origin, composition, and weaknesses of the gentry in detail.
Even Zhu Qiyu was dumbfounded.
Yu Qian has a title, and you Wang Hong and Ye Sheng are civil servants. You are digging your own roots. It's too cruel!
"Your Majesty, the Wang family is in chaos."
"But I, Wang Hong, behave uprightly. My father Wang Shaobao (Wang Zuo), my king Hong, and my descendants have all distinguished themselves in the court by their true abilities."
"I will never use the method of a fly trying to keep a dog in a trap, and I won't even bother to do it!"
This is Wang Hong's confidence.
So what if I blow myself up?
My father, Wang Zuo, I, Wang Hong, and my children and grandchildren all have real talents and learning. As long as the emperor favors them, they will naturally leap over the dragon gate without relying on evil ways.
"How magnificent, gentlemen!"
Zhu Qiyu stood up and said loudly: "When the Ming Dynasty was founded in the early days, Taizu placed great emphasis on the gentry to suppress the group of meritorious officials. The establishment of culture was a link between the past and the past. Only by using culture to govern the country did Taizong have the prominence of the gentry today!"
"I don't necessarily want to dig out the roots of the gentry and let them die!"
"but!"
"I am very relieved that you, gentlemen, can dig out your heart and lungs with me and say these words."
"I know that you, like me, all hope for the good of the Ming Dynasty. I, you and other monarchs and ministers will work together to create a prosperous Jingtai era! Our name will go down in history!"
A smile appeared on Zhu Qiyu's face: "Xing Guogong's worries, Ye Sheng's and Wang Hongzhi's worries are all justified."
"But filling the frontier with gentry cannot be shaken."
"Ye Sheng's method is very good. He forcibly recruits the able-bodied members of the gentry from all over the world to fill the capital camp, and private armed forces are not allowed to appear in the border areas."
"The Ministry of Punishment has written it into the laws of the Ming Dynasty. Anyone with private armed forces will be killed! Those who are young and strong and have not entered the capital camp will have their fingers cut off!"
"These people can't stay where they are. These people are pervasive and the guards are corrupt, which has nothing to do with them."
Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "I just said that I am not going to kill all the gentry in the world."
“It’s about restricting the gentry.”
"Let me put it crudely. We all eat in the pot of Ming Dynasty. If anyone dares to smash the pot, I will kill the nine tribes!"
"As long as those who want to eat peacefully in this pot will be tolerated by me, I will always leave a mouthful of food for them!"
"That's all for today's discussion."
"Everyone, please think about it after you go back. You will submit a memorial to me tomorrow and we will discuss it in court tomorrow."
"Today Duke Xing is talking about native people who are afraid of power but not virtuous."
"Then let's fight."
"Hit them until they're scared!"
There is no need for Zhu Qiyu to completely break up with the gentry.
His son has not been born yet and has not grown up yet. Now he must exercise restraint and endure.
Think about it carefully.
Why did Zhu Zhanxang not be chosen to help him inherit the throne at the beginning? It was because Zhu Zhanxang had an adult son who was difficult to control.
He, Zhu Qiyu, must not be like Emperor Xuanzong, who died at a young age, ascended the throne as a young king, and took charge of the young country.
So, exercise restraint.
"His Majesty!"
Yu Qian took a deep look at the emperor, who was mature.
Once you have an heir, you know it’s time for future generations to be considered.
Governing a big country is like cooking small delicacies. It must be done little by little. You are still young and the country is in your hands. The glory of the Han and Tang Dynasties will definitely be restored.
"You can never conquer the natives by force."
Yu Qian's words are shocking and he will never stop!
"Xing Guo Gong, please elaborate!" Zhu Qiyu looked pleasant. He did not think it was disobedience. If he had different opinions, he would speak out.
"Once upon a time, the Mongols were so powerful that they ravaged the Central Plains with their iron hoofs."
"But have we, the Han people, surrendered?"
Yu Qian said excitedly: "No! I, the Han, have never surrendered!"
"The natives are the same way."
"My Ming Dynasty's strong attack will only make the natives report to the group to keep warm."
"Do you know why the natives rebel so often?"
Zhu Qiyu just wanted to say that it was because of corrupt officials and harsh exploitation.
Yu Qian said: "Because, I, the Ming Dynasty, want to turn the soil into Han! So the natives don't agree!"
"Ah?" Zhu Qiyu was stunned.
Yes, he worked hard to completely turn Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangxi, Fujian and other border provinces into Han areas, let people speak Chinese, become Han people, and completely be ruled by the Ming Dynasty...
etc!
What is the difference between this and Meng Yuan's horse riding on the Central Plains?
The natives believed that it was their land, and the Ming Dynasty was the intruder!
The court officials also looked surprised.
"Your Majesty is right. To the natives, my Ming Dynasty is Meng Yuan!"
"We're squeezing their living space."
"That's why they are dissatisfied with me, Daming!"
"I don't want to be embraced, I don't want to be Chineseized."
Yu Qian said with a smile: "You can ask Chen Shilang how he did it in Yunnan's political affairs and people's affairs."
He looked at Chen Wen.
Chen Wen was the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs recommended by Sun Yuanzhen. He requested to leave the official position to observe filial piety due to his mother's death, and was appointed by Zhu Qiyu over his favor. Now he has just entered the court.
"I pay my respects to Your Majesty!" Chen Wen saluted respectfully.
Zhu Qiyu looked at him.
"Go back to Your Majesty, go back to Duke Xing."
Chen Wen is walking on thin ice because his candidate is Gao Gu. Logically speaking, Gao Gu's party should not be welcomed.
But after he entered Beijing, he found that all ministries were busy working, and the atmosphere was completely different from when he was a Beijing official.
The efficiency of work has been improved, and officials from all ministries are racking their brains to think about how to do practical things.
On the contrary, the competition has become more intense and the intrigues have become more intense.
"Wei Chen only did one thing in Yunnan, which was to think about the people." Chen Wen said simply.
But let me ask, how many local officials have done this?
Which of those officials is not dominating the local area? Become your own local emperor?
Has anyone ever thought about the common people?
Throughout the ages, this has rarely been done!
"What about the natives?" Yu Qian asked him.
"People's hearts tend to be profitable, so just give the native people appropriate benefits, and they will naturally be willing to be Hanized."
"It's just that the chieftain is difficult to control. The chieftain will prohibit the people in the chieftain's territory from being Chineseized."
Chen Wen said seriously: "As long as the chieftains are bulldozed and benefits are given to the natives, they will take the initiative to Chineseize. It is nothing more than following the trend."
“What a line to go with the flow!”
Yu Qian praised: "Your Majesty, have you ever thought about what would happen if we stopped sinicizing and stopped expanding our sphere of influence?"
"Instead, they sold weapons to major chieftains."
"Then act as the referee of the entire frontier, allowing these chieftains to attack each other."
"As long as we don't move, the chieftains will naturally be ready to take action, because for a little profit they will be beaten to death, just like the tribes in Mobei."
"When the time comes, our Ming Dynasty will be able to make a profit."
hiss!
Is this still what the scholar-officials said?
"This is unkind..." Chen Wen lost his voice.
"Shilang Chen, let's be benevolent and righteous to the chieftain. How does the chieftain treat us?"
Yu Qian asked back: "The chieftain is unwilling to be Chineseized. He thinks that the Ming Dynasty is seizing their territory! He thinks that the natives should be their own family! Be king and dominate!"
"I, Da Ming, am not a benevolent and righteous person!"
"Why should we be kind to foreigners?"
"What's more, if the whole world is not the land of the king, what about the natives? Your Majesty gave the Ming Dynasty Chinese studies to the natives to study. That is a great grace from heaven!"
"If it were the Song and Yuan Dynasties, they would have conquered them with powerful troops and killed them all!"
Yu Qian shouted sharply.
Chen Wen found that countless Dawsons in the court looked at him coldly.
Especially the emperor above Dan.
"Mr. Xing, please elaborate!" Zhu Qiyu was too lazy to answer Chen Wen.
Yu Qian cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, during the Sui Dynasty, Chang Sun Sheng used the strategy of 'making friends with distant countries and attacking those with close quarters, separating the strong and joining the weak' to divide and disintegrate the Turks."
"Today's chieftains are just like our Ming Dynasty, China."
"Instead of forcibly conquering, wasting money and food, it would also make each other bloody and enemies, which would make Chineseization more difficult."
"It is better to follow Taizu's strategy and build a royal palace in the border areas, divide the chieftains, separate the strong and join the weak, and slowly annex them."
"You were absolutely right to allow more roads to be built in the border areas."
"As long as there is a large army to intimidate, dig through the mountains, dig out a few roads, connect the water systems, and make the natural chasms accessible."
"We can encroach on the land of toast."
Yu Qian talked eloquently.
This is not the Western colonial style.
It was the colonial strategy used by Taizu, so the purpose of building Prince Mu's Mansion in Yunnan was to let Prince Mu serve as the referee for the chieftains of Yunnan. Taizu's intention was to encompass Yunnan to the south.
It's a pity that no one in future generations is using it.
"Is this method too slow?"
Wang Hong frowned: "I have been in the Ming Dynasty for nearly a hundred years, but not only has the land not increased, but it has been continuously occupied by chieftains."
Can this be blamed on the policy?
It's the emperor who can't do it, okay?
"Old Wang Ge, you are not slow at all!"
"It will take at least a year for our Ming army to recruit a large army, adapt to the climate, and train."
"Moreover, digging a road requires the cooperation of the local natives. We have to give the benefits to them. Those natives don't have much foresight, so they naturally flock to it."
"It all takes time."
Yu Qian said seriously: "Since the preparation time lasts for three to five years, why not weaken the chieftain's power during this period?"
"The Ming Dynasty just spent some wealth, just like the Xuande Dynasty used the horse market to tie up Mobei. It's the same reason."
"We can also take this opportunity to squeeze Tusi's pocket."
"When we bully the toast, the toast doesn't even have any money, so what can he use to fight us?"
"Is it because of the rugged terrain?"
"Don't forget, during this period, we have smoothed the roads!"
Yu Qian stroked his beard and smiled: "At that time, the entire border will be the territory of our Ming Dynasty. No one in the world dares to disobey His Majesty's decree!"
Most of the courtiers nodded.
In fact, toast has never been a personal concern of the Ming Dynasty.
Even the court officials were unwilling to expand the border to the south because it would cost too much and make governance difficult.
Look at the current prosperity of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. It is the result of hundreds of years of hard work by the Han people. Starting from Soochow during the Three Kingdoms period, it became truly wealthy and prosperous after Yi Guan moved south.
Therefore, when the Han people have a comfort zone, they are unwilling to open up new territories and cultivate new lands.
Because it takes too long, if a war breaks out, it will be easier for others.
If you want to fully mature the border provinces, it can take a hundred years as quickly as possible, or three to five hundred years as slowly as possible. During this period, you need to pile up a huge amount of materials. Which monarch is willing to do a thankless job?
"Mr.
After Yu Qian thought for a while, he replied: "Your Majesty wants to promote toasts. It is feasible in Guangxi, but it is definitely not possible in Yunnan!"
"Guangxi is not a birthplace."
"It has been continuously Sinicized since the Song and Yuan Dynasties, and it can now be regarded as inland."
"The most powerful chieftains in Guangxi are mostly on the border between Guangxi and Annan, the territory newly expanded by the Ming Dynasty."
"Fang Ying led the Zhenguo Army and trained hard in Guangxi for a year. It is not difficult to promote the West and govern Guangdong and Guangxi."
“But Yunnan is different!”
"To the south of Yunnan, there are Luchuan, Taungoo and other countries, which are complicated."
"Moreover, the Yunnan chieftains are united and powerful. If you want to completely Chineseize, you must first hide your strength and bide your time, and then push forward with a strong army."
"Another thing is that the miasma in Yunnan is too severe. Hundreds of thousands of mountains stretch across the border. The terrain is the biggest problem for our army."
Yu Qian cupped his hands and said, "Wei Chen thinks that in the name of conquering the Luchuan Kingdom, he can train the new army hard and recruit troops locally in Yunnan. In particular, he can recruit more native people to build the Yunnan Army."
Only local natives can adapt to the local climate and terrain and become a strong army.
Zhu Qiyu nodded slightly: "Xing Guogong is old and seeking for the country."
"Let the cabinet outline the terms and conditions. How many people are suitable to be recruited, and who should be sent to lead the army will be decided by the cabinet after discussion."
"Instead of building the Yunnan Army, directly build the Yunnan-Guizhou Army."
"First practice with Guizhou toast, and then use Yunnan toast!"
Speaking of this, Zhu Qiyu pondered and said: "If you want to buy Yunnan chieftains, then develop the Ancient Tea Horse Road vigorously."
"Use this ancient road to connect the border chieftains, and first hold their money bags."
"We will send people to instigate and join forces vertically and horizontally to make the chieftains continue to attack. We will sell them weapons."
"As for building the palace, let's build it as appropriate. We won't send the kings out of the capital. The courtiers will be in charge for the time being and act in the name of the palace."
Zhu Qiyu's son hasn't been born yet, so he can't worry about letting the other kings go.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" the courtiers bowed.
Down to court.
Entering Qianqing Palace, Zhu Qiyu stared at the map.
The map was redrawn, and Hanzhou Dusi, Yuerhai Dusi and Jilin Dusi were all drawn.
Territory doubled.
But they are all barren lands, and they have to rely on blood transfusions from two capitals and fourteen provinces to support them.
Geng Jiuchou was still crying about poverty in the early dynasty, and it will be even more difficult for the Ministry of Household Affairs in the next two years.
"Your Majesty, Xu Jue wants to see you." Feng Xiao whispered back.
Zhu Qiyu was stunned before he remembered that it was Xu Youzhen.
Soon, Xu Jue, dressed in eunuch clothes, kowtowed respectfully and opened his mouth to call the emperor.
Tears almost flowed out.
A good civil servant worked hard to become a eunuch.
"Back to your lord, the rice is ripe."
Xu Jue subconsciously called himself Wei Chen: "Wei, I have tried it myself. It is indeed non-toxic, and the fruits are plump and delicious. I estimate that the yield will be high."
With that said, he offered a corn cob.
Looking at the yellow corn cobs, I was surprised and happy.
This corn cob is not big, unlike the corn cobs developed using technology in later generations, which are large and plump.
The fruit was quite plump, not big, and was half eaten, which was the result of layers of poison tests.
"Can it be cultivated?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
"Your Majesty, it can be cultivated."
"Because a batch of finished products were shipped from the south, I used several methods to cultivate them."
"Now that the seedlings have grown, I don't know what they will grow into, but I estimate that they can be cultivated."
Xu Jue responded honestly.
"How much is the yield per mu?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
"This is the first plant you gave me. At that time, there was only one plant, and the yield per acre could not be determined, but this one plant produced two stalks of rice."
Xu Jue said: "My slave thought that if only one ear of rice was left when making the fruit, the fruit would be bigger than this one."
Zhu Qiyu nodded: "What do you think of this thing's habits?"
"It's very sturdy and easy to grow. The batch you sent to the palace were planted in the courtyard by your servants, and they didn't take care of them. They basically didn't fertilize them, but they still thrived."
Xu Jue said: "Only pest control is needed. I am mastering the experience and will compile it into a book in the future to teach the people how to plant."
This is a great talent!
It was indeed the right thing not to kill him in the first place.
Zhu Qiyu laughed: "Xu Jue, you have done a good job. There is an agricultural supervisor in the palace, and you will be the supervising eunuch."
"My slave, thank you for your grace!"
Xu Jue no longer resists his status as an eunuch.
For a person like him to survive is an act of mercy outside the law.
"You work well in the palace, and your family will naturally take good care of you!"
Zhu Qiyu said to Tianzao: "Enke will be held next year. Let your son Xu Shiliang participate."
"My slave, thank you for your favor!" Xu Jue kowtowed.
The reason why Zhu Qiyu kept Xu Jue.
Another reason is that he has two powerful grandsons, one is Zhu Yunming and the other is Jiang Tao.
Zhu Yunming Haozhishan was one of the four great talents.
Jiang Tao is the protagonist of the plot and a writer of his generation.
Furthermore, Zhu Qiyu really appreciates Xu Wei's talent.
His political skills are average, but he is a practical talent. Such talents are the most scarce in the Ming Dynasty.
"How are other crops being cultivated?" Zhu Qiyu asked again.
"Go back to your Majesty and plant them all. They all have seedlings. I think these crops are very strong and easy to grow."
Xu Jue said honestly: "It's just that I don't know whether these crops can survive in the cold climate."
He is also doing what he likes.
Since he recognized his identity as a eunuch, he had to work his way up in the palace.
Zhu Qiyu pondered slightly: "Let's do this. You take the crops out of the palace and go to Liaoning to plant them. I will let you be the guard eunuch of Jilin Dusi."
Xu Jue's eyes were filled with surprise, and the emperor's determination was unshakable.
As long as he succeeds in cultivating these crops, he will naturally rise to great heights. Maybe one day he will be able to be the eunuch in charge of rituals and palm seals!
Gulu!
Xu Jue swallowed his saliva, maybe it would be good to be a eunuch.
"Xu Jue, you are only responsible for cultivating crops in different environments!"
Zhu Qiyu looked at him: "Government affairs will be handed over to others for the time being. You will do this. As long as it succeeds, I will pick a city in Mobei and name it after you!"
"In the future, you will also be able to be a great minister and the chief minister of the Supervisor of Ceremonies!"
Xu Jue is an old official.
Instantly understand the emperor's meaning.
If he can't do it, then there is no need to go back to the palace, just dig a hole and bury himself.
This is a dead order.
"Slave, I will successfully cultivate it within this year!" Xu Jue bowed.
"If you need anything, ask Li Xian and Shang Ren. They must satisfy you." Zhu Qiyu warned him a few more times before sending him away.
"Send this half of the imperial rice to the cabinet and let the cabinet ministers taste it." Zhu Qiyu said to Feng Xiao.
Feng Xiao was stunned: "Your Majesty, how do you eat this?"
"How do the poison-testing eunuchs eat?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
"Eat it raw."
Zhu Qiyu was speechless: "Put it in the pot and cook it, then you can eat it."
So simple?
Feng Xiao quickly asked Shangshi Bureau to make it and then sent it to the cabinet.
Report to the Ministry of Industry.
The Yangxin Hall and the Military Aircraft Department were completed.
On the right side of Qianqing Palace and in front of West Sixth Palace.
From now on, go to the Yangxin Hall for work.
"Your Majesty, Empress Tan has sent someone to report that it's time to take your pulse. When will your Majesty go to Yonghe Palace?"
Zhu Qiyu, who was dealing with government affairs, raised his eyes: "I will go in the evening and rest in Yonghe Palace in the evening."
When Tan Yunxian was pregnant, Zhu Qiyu didn't let her travel back and forth to avoid damaging the fetus.
"Slave, please go report it now." Feng Xiaogang left.
Yu Qian and Hu Hui came hand in hand.
After entering the Qianqing Palace and saluting, Yu Qian asked anxiously: "Your Majesty, how much is the harvest of this royal rice?"
I knew I was here for Yumi.
Zhu Qiyu asked people to bring Xu Wei's records to them.
"I have asked Xu Jue to go to Liaoning to plant. We will know in a few months whether they are cold-resistant."
"Weichen ate one pill. It tasted sweet and sweet in the mouth. After eating one pill, I wanted to eat the second pill." Yu Qian said with a smile.
Hu Xi kept nodding: "I have a bad stomach, but I took a few pills and didn't feel any discomfort."
"I told you, this thing is a treasure."
Zhu Qiyu stood up with a smile: "You two, when the new year comes, my dream will definitely come true!"
"I also hope that your Majesty will have a clever plan."
"If Yumi can be grown in Liaoning, maybe it can also be grown in Mobei!"
Hu Xi smiled and said: "It doesn't matter even if the yield per mu is lower, as long as we can eat it, we can gain a firm foothold in Mobei!"
"Old Master, you will know when the potatoes and sweet potatoes mature and bear fruit. These are sharp weapons."
Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "Mobei, let's take root this time and never leave!"
"Potatoes, sweet potatoes?"
Hu Ming frowned: "The name is too vulgar, it's better to be more elegant than Yumi."
Zhu Qiyu named it Yumi instead of Corn, which already gave him a headache.
At that time, it was to promote convenience, but it was not down to earth and sounded awkward.
"The name doesn't matter, as long as it can be eaten, satiated, and can be grown in harsh environments, that's enough!" Yu Qian said.
After chatting and laughing for a while, Zhu Qiyu asked: "What do you mean when you two hurriedly entered the palace?"
Yu Qian took out a memorial from his sleeve pocket and presented it.
Zhu Qiyu frowned: "This post office is full of tricksters, so I caught these people and killed them with all my heart."
The memorial came from Yu Shan, about the anti-corruption courier system.
"Yu Shan is also a waste!"
"You can't do such a small thing well!"
Zhu Qiyu restrained his joy and said thoughtfully: "Don't go back to Beijing. Stay in Shanxi and be the governor of Shanxi. Yu Gang will be the governor of Shaanxi."
"Anticlimactic!"
Zhu Qiyu originally wanted to make a big fuss about the e-delivery system.
As a result, the thunder was loud and the rain was light.
Let those scoundrels become invisible again.
"You two, who in the court knows how to do business?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
This is difficult for Yu Qian and Hu Ming.
"Your Majesty wants to find an official who understands business to manage the post delivery system?" Yu Qian asked.
"That's right, I want to commercialize both Yi Delivery and Di Bao. The government needs people to keep an eye on them. They must understand business and not be fooled."
"Your Majesty, I think I can let a loyal minister take care of me." Yu Qian believes that character is more important than ability.
"I am very satisfied after reading the list of traitorous officials compiled by Qian Pu in the Imperial College Classics."
Zhu Qiyu nodded: "Let Qian Pu do it. If it doesn't work, replace him."
"I have no objection."
Yu Qian bowed.
"Xing Guogong, what do you think of North Korea?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
Yu Qian pondered slightly: "Actually, North Korea and Liaodong are integrated internally and externally. When I was in Liaodong, I often discussed the situation with Li Xian."
“Count North Korea in the mix every time.”
"But the king of Joseon was ignorant and ignorant and did not take the opportunity to attack the Jurchen tribe and recapture Changbai Mountain."
"So Wei Chen believes that North Korea is weak and as long as Ming Dynasty strong troops stationed in North Korea, North Korea will naturally succumb to our country."
Hu Xi said: "Your Majesty, judging from the news from Luo Qi, King Li Yao of North Korea is an ambitious monarch."
"He is a king who usurped the throne and seized power. He was canonized by our dynasty in the seventh year of Jingtai, and he was justly named."
In fact, Korean history is a replica of the Ming Dynasty.
Li Yao was unable to seize the throne, and he followed the example of Emperor Taizong. The Supreme Emperor Li Hongwei restored the throne several times, and almost succeeded in the restoration.
The battle of Jingnan and the change of seizing the gate.
Look, this is the Little China.
"I believe that Li Yao is not without ambition, nor is he without strength."
"But the situation between North Korea and China is treacherous and changeable."
"Pushing North Korea into internal strife."
"Fortunately, His Majesty foresaw the opportunity and sent Luo Qi and Cheng Xin to sit in North Korea as envoys of the Celestial Empire."
"We can take this opportunity to quickly soften North Korea."
Hu Bi glanced at Yu Qian: "Xing Guogong thought that a strong army would be used to suppress North Korea, but the old minister thought it was not necessary."
"The situation in North Korea has become a raging fire. We, the DPRK, are taking advantage of the situation to make the situation in North Korea continue to escalate."
"The fishermen will benefit."
"After all, North Korea has always been submissive, and our country has no reason to send troops."
Yu Qian was about to speak.
Hu Xi smiled and said: "We have to wait for North Korea to borrow troops from China. Once we borrow troops, we will guard North Korea and never come back!"
"If Yumi can really be widely planted, it can grow in harsh environments."
"Then the land of North Korea is the land of my Ming Dynasty!"
In the final analysis, it is still a food issue.
North Korea was poor, so it was despised by the monarchs of the past dynasties.
"Old Master, you think North Korea will borrow troops from China?" Yu Qian frowned.
Hu Hui smiled and said: "Monks from outside like to chant sutras."
Yu Qian was stunned.
Hu Hui used political means to solve the problem, and he wanted to use military power to suppress it.
Zhu Qiyu thinks they are all good.
"Who else needs to be sent?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
"Your Majesty, having Luo Qi and Cheng Xin in charge is enough."
Hu Hui was full of confidence: "Let Liaoning respond at any time. With Li Xian and Shang Ren in Liaoning, there is no need to worry."
"When our government promotes royal rice, the whole of Liaodong will be planted with royal rice."
"Hmph, then the whole world is my Ming Dynasty territory!"
Hu Hui was in a great mood.
"Old lady Fu Lao Cheng is planning for the country, so I won't worry about North Korea."
Zhu Qiyu looked at Yu Qian: "Where is the Jurchen Ministry?"
"Your Majesty, the Jurchens are unruly and difficult to subdue."
Yu Qian said with emotion: "Wei Chen thinks there is no need to show mercy for the time being. Let Wu Liangha and Jurchen be used up first. We are not afraid that they will run away."
"There are only so many suitable places to live in Liaodong, and they can't escape from the palm of our hands."
What Yu Qian means is that there will be no war this year.
Liaoning needs to recuperate and restructure.
"The decree is passed, ordering Yu Kang to gather the Liaoning Guards and form the Liaoning Army. Yu Kang will be appointed as the commander-in-chief, and Niu Zhen will be appointed as the deputy commander-in-chief."
"Order Hu Xi to build the Jilin Army, Hu Xi to be the commander-in-chief, and Gu Rong to be the deputy commander-in-chief!"
"Organization... one hundred thousand troops each!"
The words trailed off.
Hu Xi said: "Your Majesty, how can Liaoning Province support an army of 200,000 people?"
"How much does the old lady think is the limit?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
Hu Xi thought carefully for a while and then said: "Integrate Liaodong Town and maintain 120,000 to 150,000, and then let the local military households train and replenish it at any time."
"allow!"
Zhu Qiyu muttered: "It's time to mobilize the Henan Army back to Henan."
Liang Yue's trip to Henan was a complete waste.
What's more, Lin Cong was in charge of Henan and needed to be intimidated by the Henan army.
Yu Qian saw the emperor's worry and said, "Your Majesty, the top priority is to build a ship!"
Liang Yue is a close minister.
So Liang Yue was sent to supervise the construction of the ship.
However, Zhu Qiyu was daunted by the opening of Songjiang Shipyard. He could not rest assured about Jiangnan unless he was personally in charge of Nanjing.
"Your Majesty, the Japanese pirates are most rampant in the south of the Yangtze River and it is impossible to build ships safely."
Yu Qian smiled and said: "It is better to rebuild the shipyard in Liaoning. Weichen thinks Luda is good."
Luda is affiliated to Jinzhou Guard.
"Split Luda into two counties: Lushun and Dalian. Jinzhouwei, Fuzhouwei, Gaizhouwei, and Xiuyan were merged into Jinzhou Prefecture."
"Set up Jinzhou Shipyard!"
"Instruct Admiral Liang Yue to supervise the shipyard and train naval forces at Luda."
Zhu Qiyu walked to the map and said quietly: "This navy is kept secret from the outside world. It is only said that it is the Liaodong Army and should be supported by internal funds."
"Order a group of people to be transferred from the canal protection army and join the Liaodong Army."
"A group of naval generals will be transferred from the local area and put under the jurisdiction of Liang Yue."
"The shipyards are spending a lot of money."
"I have sent Tiqi commander Lu Zhong to personally take charge of Luda."
"Do you two have any suitable civil servants to recommend?"
Zhu Qiyu pointed out: "Be loyal."
Hu Xi pursed her lips: "Since Your Majesty wants to keep it a secret, why not select a few people from among the new Jinshi and go to the shipyard."
Yu Qian nodded.
"Then it's up to you to decide on the candidate according to what the old master said."
Zhu Qiyu said: "Japanese pirates are very rampant in the coastal areas. I have defeated the Tatars and driven back the Oara. It's time to attack them this time."
"Your Majesty, you should prioritize your work and prioritize." Hu Hui reminded.
"Don't worry, old lady, I know what's going on."
After discussing for a while, the two left the palace.
Zhu Qiyu then handled government affairs.
A boring day has passed.
In the evening, after having dinner and reading the memorial, we went to Yonghe Palace.
Tan Yunxian has not shown her pregnancy yet, and her body is slim and graceful, but she obviously spends a lot of money on food. All the food in her palace must go through at least a dozen poison tests before it can enter her mouth.
It definitely doesn’t taste good, but safety is the most important thing.
Zhu Qiyu gently placed his hand on her belly.
"Your Majesty, I haven't shown my pregnancy yet, and there is no fetal movement yet." Tan Yunxian said with a smile.
How she longed for this to be a son.
Then she can reach the sky in one step and become a mother in the world!
"How is my health?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
This time when taking pulse, Tan Yunxian was not kneeling, but sitting.
This is the emperor's grace.
"Your Majesty is in good health."
Tan Yunxian took notes and took notes every time she asked for pulse.
It must also be kept in the palace archives.
"I also feel that my body has become stronger and stronger recently, and the benefits of long-term exercise have become more prominent." Zhu Qiyu said with a smile.
Tan Yunxian chuckled.
The emperor never stopped exercising for a day, and he persevered every day, which shows his great perseverance.
"You too, you should move around more during pregnancy." Zhu Qiyu said with a smile.
Don't think that Chinese medicine's method of nourishing the fetus is to let people lie down.
In fact, Chinese medicine has long written down how to maintain health and how to maintain a fetus, and it has long been a system.
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."
Tan Yunxian chuckled and listened to her husband's greetings. Although she knew these caring words better than anyone else, her eyes curled up like crescent moons, full of joy.
"Your Majesty, I cannot serve you. Please move to another place."
What Tan Yunxian meant was that the emperor should favor the new Lin family.
Lin was placed in Jingyang Palace. After becoming pregnant, she would naturally be named a concubine.
"I'm not a breeding pig."
Zhu Qiyu hugged her and said with a smile: "You and I supported each other and got to where we are today."
"During your pregnancy, you opened up branches and leaves for Lao Zhu's family."
"I happen to not be busy with government affairs tonight, so I feel comfortable spending more time with you."
"Ke Lin chooses an attendant..."
Tan Yunxian knew that the emperor would not give his love to a woman.
Women in the harem are both the luckiest and the unluckiest people in the world. They are just the emperor's fertility machines.
But isn’t that true of a wealthy family?
"Did she bully you?"
Zhu Qiyu looked at her: "Then let her hang out for a few days and punish her."
"Your Majesty, please don't..."
Tan Yunxian was very anxious, but when he turned around and saw the narrowness in the emperor's eyes, he was instantly ashamed.
Zhu Qiyu laughed and said: "As long as my beloved concubine is happy, whatever my beloved concubine says will be whatever she wants."
"Your Majesty knows how to fool people!" Tan Yunxian pushed him away angrily.
Zhu Qiyu laughed: "How dare I deceive my beloved concubine? Otherwise, I would call her over and stand in line at the gate of Yonghe Palace."
Tan Yunxian snorted slightly, expressing disbelief.
But just as the emperor was about to issue an order, she immediately said: "Please calm down, Your Majesty, I am just having a little temper."
"Hahaha!"
Zhu Qiyu hugged her: "You are my wife. Playing with your husband is what a wife should do. Otherwise, why would a woman get married? Why don't you just find a man who loves you and your concubine, stay with him for life, and play with him? Play petty."
Tan Yunxian was surprised, she really didn't understand why the woman married.
It seems to be a convention.
"His Majesty's saying is too shocking."
Tan Yunxian exclaimed: "Women learn three virtues at home, how dare you make a small nature!"
"When the Tan Shi at home is stubbornly stubborn?" Zhu Qiyu was surprised.
"How can you have Chen Yue!" Tan Yunxian was anxious.
She did show up her head to see a doctor, but she was also wearing a hat, never showing her face, and never in contact with people.
But the folk still came out of her rumors.
"Hahaha!"
Zhu Qiyu gently stroked her belly: "I understand you."
