There is some truth to what the Minister of Punishment said. For this reason, Zhu Biao was not prepared to expand the case to the extent that it had been in history. In recent years, there has been a lot of food consumption everywhere, and he has been keeping a close eye on it. Even though the officials below have The number of profits to be made from it will not be too large.
It is necessary to kill one person as a warning to others, but it is still necessary to exempt most of them and modify the rigid rules.
After listening to the opinions of the courtiers, Zhu Biao hurried back to Jinshen Palace. By this time, Lao Zhu's anger had calmed down a lot. In addition, there were frequent reports of the imperial court's expansion in the southwest and Liaodong in the past few days, so he finally adopted his son's opinions. .
The case was handed over to the Xiuyi Envoy for investigation. In the end, more than 30 officials were found guilty of corruption, and their homes were beheaded and their families were exiled to Liaodong. Exiled to Yunnan and Guizhou.
There was no war in the Ming Dynasty for several years. Only the navy was called to Japan from time to time. Lan Yu had already raised the flag to independently judge the Southern Dynasty and abducted most of the Southern Dynasty's troops.
Emperor Changqing of the Southern Dynasty, Kuancheng, repeatedly sent envoys to the Ming Dynasty to ask for help, and promised to be a vassal and pay tribute for generations. The Ming Dynasty accepted the Southern Dynasty's vassalage, and formally rewarded the imperial robes, crowns and books and seals, but refused to send troops to help the Southern Dynasty.
At the request of the shogunate, the Northern Dynasty's later Yuanrong Emperor Suren sent the same envoy to seek canonization, but was rejected by the Ming Dynasty. However, the Ming Dynasty had no intention of sending troops to quell them on behalf of the Southern Dynasty.
In this way, while Aizakusaku and Ezo frequently raised troops, the Northern Dynasty had to forcefully send troops. It took two years to completely swallow the poisonous fat of the Southern Dynasty.
Before the envoys from the Northern Dynasty set foot on the territory of the Ming Dynasty with humiliating conditions, Lan Yu welcomed the only remaining princess from the Southern Dynasty with great fanfare and raised an army in the name of supporting orthodoxy.
Naturally, the Ming Dynasty also wanted to bring order to the chaos. Liao Yongzhong, Marquis of Deqing, led the navy to land in Japan. The Ming Dynasty also ordered the Southeast Asian countries to gather 20,000 troops and more than a thousand warships as support.
It's not that they lack the strength, but that they want to form a routine and show off their force.
The most difficult part of conquering the island country was the landing battle. The Yuan Dynasty was defeated here, and Da Mingming was well prepared and did not need to spend a single soldier for the landing.
Not only that, Lan Yu used extremely cruel methods to raise a large amount of food supplies, which greatly reduced the pressure on the imperial court to supply the army across the sea.
………
In the summer of the fifteenth year of Hongwu, Zhu Biao wrote a secret letter to Lan Yu. Only he could handle this matter. Not everyone can bear the eight words of "sin in the present, merit in the future".
Decades of war between the Northern and Southern Dynasties in Japan had already led to a depletion of the population. Needless to say, in the past few years, the organized army, equipped with weapons that were several generations advanced, carried out massacres on a large scale, and the damage caused was incalculable. There is a limited amount, not to mention a group of Japanese traitors who have taken refuge. They are the most cruel.
Almost all the Japanese in the city are dead, and most of the surviving ones are hiding in the mountains and ravines. Now if we talk about the young people of Japan, I am afraid that there are more people who were slaves in the Ming Dynasty than the local young people.
But since it has been done, why not do it absolutely? The so-called flying birds are gone, good bows are hidden, cunning rabbits are dead, and lackeys are cooked. We must not allow the Japanese to gather in excess of ten thousand. We must completely destroy them. This group of so-called warriors under Lan Yu's command who have taken refuge are the last The remnants need to be eradicated.
After that, they burned their historical texts, moved the Han, Mongolians, Koreans and Jurchens to Japan, established various academic regulations to suppress customs and habits, and divided Japan into six kingdoms, which would be enfeoffed to princes and princes in the future to establish the country.
As for Lan Yu and Tang Ding, they worked hard and achieved great results. Zhu Biao divided Huang Yuanshou's territory into three, let the three of them establish a principality, and divided some inhabitable islands in the Ryukyu Islands to give the marquises who made contributions in this battle as fiefs.
As soon as this case was started, the government and the public were in an uproar. No one thought that in addition to the royal family, there would be land that was actually sealed. This was something that no one had imagined since the Qin and Han Dynasties.
The founding warriors who were deprived of their military power and trapped in the capital were depressed and depressed, as if they had opened the door to a new world. No matter how big or small, the temptation to paint the land and seal the territory was not something that men could resist.
Although the censors objected to this, they still looked down on places outside the Central Plains from the bottom of their hearts. They also felt that the enclave was difficult to manage, and it was not unacceptable to divide the enfeoffment and meritorious officials, so they gave up.
In the Jinshen Hall, in addition to the desks of the emperor and the prince, there was an additional set of seats. The emperor's grandson Zhu Xiongying, with his back straight, watched the memorials reviewed by his father and grandfather in turn.
This was undoubtedly a torment for a child, so after about an hour, Zhu Biao signaled his son to put down the memorial and go out to play for a while. He had already spread the interesting story of sitting on the Nei Wulong Bridge and throwing stones into the river. Gave it to my son.
Zhu Xiongying jumped off the chair obediently, bowed to his grandfather in a proper manner, and then bowed to his father before retreating, but his steps were obviously much lighter than when he came.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at his grandson's back and smiled and said: "Although it is not as good as when you were a child, compared with the uncles and brothers next to him, Xiongying is much better in every aspect. We can feel relieved."
Zhu Biao didn't realize how smart his eldest son was. He could only say that compared to his uncles and brothers, the education he received since childhood was really good, and he wasn't too pampered, so he seemed to stand out.
"Yunxi is also very good at studying. Father, don't be too unfavorable to one or another."
Zhu Yuanzhang said helplessly: "Of course we love you the same, but the people below will always think too much."
"There are still rich lands overseas. In the future, the children of the royal family will often have to entrust the land. Yunxi will not be an exception. My sons and ministers will entrust him further."
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and nodded slightly. If he could, he would not let his direct descendants be enfeoffed to places too far away. The closer to the Central Plains, the better. However, it was about the country and the country, and it could not be based on a small personal relationship. And leave behind disaster.
"How about Shang Bing, Ji Xi, Gao Chi, and Youdou Xue?"
"Among the brothers of their generation, apart from Xiongying Yunxi, Gao Chi is very good. He is dignified and quiet, knowledgeable in words and deeds, likes to read, and his temperament is more like that of the fourth younger brother and sister."
"Ji Xi is normal even when he's in a stew, but Shang Bing's temperament is exactly the same as the second child's when he was a child. He doesn't obey discipline and likes to fight for everything. It looks like he's going to become crooked."
After the birth of the eldest son of King Zhu Xi of the Jin Dynasty, Lao Zhu ordered that all princes and princes should be sent to the palace for education when they reached the age of schooling, so as not to be raised in the hands of women in the back house.
When he got to the palace, Zhu Biao naturally took more care of him. He had to focus on the studies of his younger brothers, so having a few more nephews didn't matter.
Zhu Yuanzhang snorted: "Then beat him, we can't let him go crooked, and he won't be allowed to go back during the annual vacation. Everything will be fine if we don't see his stupid parents."
Zhu Biao responded. Seeing that his father had nothing else to say, he continued to read the memorial. As expected, there was another memorial asking for a fight. In the past few months, among the Wu Xun faction, the title of prince was It was good to wait, but the marquis couldn't help it.
Every day he went to Jinghaigong Wu Zhen's house when he returned to Beijing to inquire about any other suitable places for farming in the nearby sea area. He looked at the sea map and was eager to try.
Even the generals who usually looked down on the navy the most began to learn it quietly. They even sent their nephews to the coast to order ships and asked them to follow the trade routes to find any countries that were unwilling to surrender to the Ming Dynasty.
As a result, the Ming Dynasty is now peaceful, and all struggles have been put on hold. It can only be said that when external temptations are sufficient, internal conflicts cannot arise at all.
Hu Weiyong felt as if his vitality had resurfaced. The plan really didn't change quickly. Who would have thought that everything would go so smoothly? It was not luck, but God's blessing.
In addition to the Ming Dynasty's attack on Luchuan when it was strong, whether it was Goryeo, Japan, or overseas countries, it was also the time when the country's power was at its lowest in hundreds of years.
Liu Jin took out a porcelain bowl from under the bridge and gently delivered it to His Highness. For some reason, every time he accompanied His Highness, he couldn't help but recall the years after the founding of the People's Republic of China, when His Highness was often free. Now that I'm here, it's been five or six years since His Highness came here to get water.
……………
I believe everyone has also felt that the progress of the plot is accelerating. Unknowingly, this book has been written for more than three years. Because it is the first time to write a book, I have no experience. The previous timeline and other things are not well written, and there is nothing. The more I write the outline of the plan, the more difficult it becomes, like a running account, and my mind is empty.
If I insist on writing it, I feel that I can still write this book for two or three years, but forget it, I will also want to write other things (=`) People (`=)
I hope my book can help you pass some of your free time.
Super invincible, thank you all for seeing me now, I love you all (▽`)
