"Long live."
Yuan Chonghuan responded subconsciously, "North Korea is a country without conquests, and this was decreed by Taizu."
"Do you know?" Li Yunze smiled with relief, "What are the prerequisites for a country without conquests?"
Yuan Chonghuan was stunned on the spot with a confused look on his face. He was really confused.
In Ming's view, the eldest son in North Korea is the eldest son. How can I beat my son... Well, it should be normal for me to beat my son.
Mao Wenlong, who was full of beard and looked very majestic, said happily, "Long live! That North Korea has surrendered to the Tartars, and is now a vassal state of the Tartars. We will naturally conquer it."
"You, the governor of Liaodong." Li Yunze pointed at Yuan Chonghuan and smiled indifferently, "You don't even know this. When you negotiated peace with the Tartars, they didn't tell you?"
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in Fengtian Hall.
When Nurhaci died, Yuan Chonghuan sent an envoy to express condolences and wrote a letter to Huang Taiji requesting peace.
Huang Taiji agreed to the peace negotiation, and after stabilizing the Ming Dynasty, he immediately sent troops to attack North Korea. Not only did he solve the hidden dangers in his back, he also got a channel to continuously obtain supplies.
After defeating Korea, he signed an alliance under the city, abandoned the Ming Dynasty and fell into the arms of the Tartars.
No matter what the original purpose was, it was to delay time, to paralyze the opponent, or simply to really want to negotiate a peace.
This thing is certain.
Yuan Chonghuan really reached a peace agreement with the Tartars as a local governor.
In nature, this is even more serious than his desire to kill Mao Wenlong.
No marriage, no indemnity, no cession of territory, no tribute.
The emperor guards the gate of the country, and the king dies in the country!
Ming Dynasty's foreign strategy has always been one word, and that is to fight!
This is a national policy, and no one dares to make mistakes on it.
Even the emperor did not dare to propose peace, but Yuan Chonghuan, a mere governor, dared to do it. This was asking for death.
Sun Chengzong on the side felt his heart pounding and realized that something serious was going on.
He hurriedly stepped forward to help Yuan Chonghuan, "Long live! Yuan Chonghuan is not negotiating peace with the Tartars. He just sent people to recruit the Tartars. The Tartars are bandits, so how can they negotiate for peace."
The Ming Dynasty never recognized the Tartars and regarded them as bandits from beginning to end.
Literally speaking, it would make sense to call the peace talks a surrender.
Li Yunze nodded, seemingly unconcerned, "Mao Wenlong, please continue."
"Long live." Mao Wenlong came to his senses and responded hurriedly, "I wanted to go back to Dongjiang, but Governor Yuan led people to chase him to the pier, intending to use the king's flag to harm me. It was all thanks to Mr. Sun Ge who arrived in time that he was saved. Take my life."
At this point, Mao Wenlong became emotional, bowed his head and cried, "Long live for me to make the decision~~~"
"Yuan Chonghuan, is what Mao Wenlong said true?"
"Hui Long Live, but this is the case." Yuan Chonghuan suddenly raised his head, "I am here for the imperial court, and I want to get rid of this overseas emperor for Long Live!"
This cannon was fired so hard that it directly wanted Mao Wenlong's life.
If he really proves his reputation as an overseas emperor, then he, Mao Wenlong, is really dead.
There were a lot of discussions in Fengtian Hall. Some people supported Yuan Chonghuan and believed that Mao Wenlong, who had evil intentions, should be killed. There are also people who support Mao Wenlong and feel that Yuan Chonghuan is treasonous.
After the commotion, everyone looked at Li Yunze.
He is the one who can really make the decision.
Li Yunze hesitated slightly, and after a moment he said, "Let's discuss it."
The so-called court discussion is when the ministers discuss how to deal with it.
As soon as this statement came out, Fengtian Hall immediately turned into a vegetable market, with all kinds of noise, accusations and debates.
Li Yunze watched this with cold eyes.
He had already made up his mind on how to deal with it specifically.
The purpose of the court meeting or something like that is just to see what the direction of the court is now after a series of rectifications.
After a fierce debate, Sun Chengzong, the chief minister of the cabinet, finally came forward to report.
"Long live, I am waiting for the court to discuss. If Mao Wenlong does not obey the laws of the court, he should be stripped of his rank and serve as the commander-in-chief of Dongjiang Town."
"As for Yuan Chonghuan, killing a high-ranking official without the emperor's order should be regarded as a great treason. However, his original intention was for the imperial court, so it is excusable. And the matter did not succeed. I would like to ask Long live to be kind and allow him to return to his hometown to think about his mistakes behind closed doors."
There was no way to wash away what he wanted to do to kill Mao Wenlong and put it into effect. He could only find a way to find a reason to get away with it.
Li Yunze, who was sitting on a chair drinking tea, laughed. "The matter of negotiating peace with the Tartars is just taken away like this? You are really a showman."
"Long live, Yuan Chonghuan is not negotiating for peace, but for surrender!"
Sun Chengzong had no choice but to insist on this point. After all, we can't drag Huang Taiji over to confront him in court, right?
"Well, after all, we can't call Huang Taiji to confront him." Li Yunze laughed again and shook his head, "Mao Wenlong."
"Your Majesty is here." Mao Wenlong hurriedly bowed and listened to the emperor's final ruling.
"Your adopted sons and grandsons have all been changed back to their original names, and they are not allowed to do this again in the future. The military register of the Qing Dynasty in Dongjiang Town has been reorganized, and the imperial court has dispatched inspectors. Are you willing to accept it?"
His adopted son and adopted grandson, that is, the entire Dongjiang Town became his private soldier, Mao Wenlong. Originally, Li Yunze planned to wait until the Tartars were destroyed before doing this.
But now that we've caught up, let's solve it in advance.
It is also necessary to reorganize the Qing military register. Mao Wenlong included the entire Dongjiang Town, men, women, old and young, into the military register. The amount of money and food he asked for could even reach nearly half of Liao's pay. Who could do this? I can bear it.
Li Yunze wants to reorganize the military roster. Fighting soldiers are fighting soldiers, and refugees are refugees.
The necessary subsidies and relief are essential, but the identities must be clearly distinguished.
Mao Wenlong pressed his forehead tightly against the gold brick: "I obey the order."
How dare he refuse to accept it? If there is a "no word" exit, he will immediately have to move to prison.
To put it bluntly, Ming's prestige and strength still exist, but Mao Wenlong doesn't have the heart or the courage to do so.
"You fought in the hinterland of the Tartars, and you have merit." Li Yunze has already mastered the technique of giving a sweet date after hitting a stick. "Since you have merit, you should be rewarded. I will confer you with the title of Jing Haibo. When the time comes, In the future, when the Tartars are pacified and rewards are given based on merit, it is not impossible for him to be promoted to noble rank or duke."
The title of meritorious service in the Ming Dynasty was only the third level of Duke, Marquis and Uncle.
And no knighthood is allowed except for military merit.
Of course, the queen's father was not included in this list.
Even if the queen's father is granted a title, it is only for life, which means that the title belongs only to the father-in-law. When the person dies, the title will be removed immediately, and there is no possibility of inheritance.
This is called a certificate.
What is really valuable is Li Yunze's words of "conferring the world to the world".
The meaning of the conferred certificate is that it can be hereditary, and future generations can inherit the title.
The difference between world certificates and certificates is the difference between gold and brass.
Mao Wenlong, who was still depressed at first, was overjoyed when he heard this. He kowtowed and saluted, "Thank you, my lord, for your kindness!"
If you risk your life to gain a hereditary title, your descendants will continue to enjoy it, which means you have done the best for your family.
When descendants worship their ancestors, they must be in the middle C position.
Mao Wenlong has made arrangements, and the next step is Yuan Chonghuan.
Facing this extremely controversial figure in history, Li Yunze made an arrangement after thinking briefly.
"Yuan Chonghuan, you have violated a taboo by negotiating peace in private. Killing a minister without permission is a crime of treason."
"But since Mr. Sun Ge said that you can discuss your merits, and Mao Wenlong has not really been killed by you, then I will give you a way to survive."
Li Yunze stood up, his eyes as bright as lightning: "I will seize all your official positions, take back the royal flag and Shang Fang's sword, and seize the words you have written since your birth. Are you willing to accept it?"
What does it mean that death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be forgiven? This is it.
It doesn't matter if I lose my job at my job, as long as there is still a chance to recover in the future.
It doesn't matter if he takes back the royal flag and Shang Fang's sword. It will naturally happen when he reaches a certain status.
But it would be fatal to pursue the words written since birth.
For scholars, this means abolishing fame and eliminating establishment.
Under such circumstances, there is no chance of getting ahead in this life.
In other words, he has been a white body from now on.
For scholars, this is a crueler punishment than direct death.
Sun Chengzong and others said that they would go back to their hometown and think about their mistakes behind closed doors. What they wanted was a chance to recover in the future.
But if we pursue the words we have written since birth, there will be no chance.
Yuan Chonghuan, who was in a daze, shook a few times, and after a moment he slowly saluted, "Common people, I obey the order."
Those who pursue the written word since their birth are the common people.
Sun Chengzong, who looked anxious, wanted to argue for him, but Li Yunze had already waved his hand and turned around to leave Fengtian Hall.
When Mao Wenlong stood up and left, he frowned proudly at Yuan Chonghuan.
Immediately, Sun Chengzong looked over, and he immediately lowered his head in fear and turned around to run away.
Sun Chengzong was the biggest boss in Liaodong, and Mao Wenlong didn't dare to stab him in front of him.
"Element..." Sun Chengzong, who was full of guilt, stepped forward to help Yuan Chonghuan.
"There's no need to talk anymore, Mr. Ge." Yuan Chonghuan, who was struggling to keep himself up, sighed, "That's good. From now on, it's also a good thing to leisurely go down the Nanshan Mountain."
Then he bowed his hands to the many officials gathered around him in a free and easy manner, "Thank you all for your help. We'll see each other again tomorrow!"
When he left Fengtian Hall, he was still filled with resentment.
In Yuan Chonghuan's view, he negotiated peace with Huang Taiji just to delay time.
As for Mao Wenlong, Dongjiang Town is almost becoming a vassal town in the late Tang Dynasty, so there is nothing wrong with it.
The emperor didn't care about this at all and just drove him away.
He wanted to see what His Majesty would do when Huang Taiji's army came over!
At that time, if there is an emergency, please get up and come back from the mountain. You will definitely not be allowed to do so.
Yuan Chonghuan left the capital and returned to his hometown in anger. The heated discussion about this matter only lasted for a few days before being replaced by another incident.
The exam for Enke, the second year of Chongzhen's reign, finally started.
After the exams that lasted for several days were over, restaurant business across the capital immediately boomed.
Many scholars who had put down their burdens gathered together with their friends to vent the pressure in their hearts.
"Brother Xian."
"Brother among men."
Shi Kefa and Chen Zilong gathered in a wine shop, and after exchanging pleasantries, the topic quickly turned to this exam.
"The exam questions are different from those in the past and are more practical."
"Students thought that they could do well in the exam by familiarizing themselves with the Ming Dynasty Laws, but they never thought that it would be a test of practical examples. I'm afraid many people would scratch their heads when they saw the test questions."
Sitting by the window, the lean Chen Zilong picked up his wine glass and laughed, "It is said that the questions in this exam were all written by Long Live. This shows that the saint is more capable. Brother Yu frankly exposed his shortcomings and slapped many people in the face... What's wrong?" ?”
Opposite him, Shi Kefa pointed at the window with a horrified expression.
Chen Zilong turned his head and looked over, and was shocked to see that the sun in the sky was gradually getting darker.
Tengu eats the day!
