Two living princes are about to appear in the Ming Dynasty!
This will undoubtedly become the biggest hot news event in the 28 years of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, except for the New Deal.
And if the founding Duke Chang Sheng and Cao Guogong Li Jinglong are really promoted to princes this time, the Ming army will surely fall into a new frenzy.
The canonization of the king's title is just like the time when he moved to wood to establish his trust.
When everyone knew about the millions of troops in the Ming Dynasty, the court really awarded him a royal title. No one dared to imagine how much potential those soldiers who had come out of the founding war would unleash.
Zhu Yunxi stepped forward and said casually: "Before the merit awards are given, the Governor's Office and the Ministry of War should review the military achievements of the Eastern and Southern Expeditions, sort them into a volume, and distribute them to the court and the public at a time to show the fairness of the court."
The steps to be crowned a king are very cumbersome. The court must give a formal explanation, clearly announce the decree, and it must be reported to all the prefectures and counties in the world.
Rujun, the Minister of the Ministry of War, who had been stripped of many powers, immediately responded and stood still with his hands folded, but he glanced at Xu Yungong first.
Then Ru Ruan said to Zhu Yunxi: "Your Highness, the imperial court's merit examination and the Ministry of War's merit examination are all archived and available for the court's review. The Ministry of War believes that if military merit alone is used, then Founding Duke and Cao Guogong can be promoted to the Jin Dynasty due to their merit. It's just that the imperial court should have a priority.
The founder of the country led the southern expedition and destroyed two areas. He established two new routes to continue the expedition to the west. When the imperial court decides on canonization, the founding father should be given priority.
Cao Guogong's Eastern Expedition was behind him, and there were still rebellions in Yingzhou. The imperial court had not established any prefectures or counties. Although it had contributed to the destruction of the country, it should be ranked second to the founding of the country. "
This is a matter of common sense, but Ru Ru is helpless and must find an opportunity to say these things.
The Ministry of War is becoming increasingly inconspicuous now. Under the restoration of the Metropolitan Governor's Office, the Ministry of War must firmly grasp the few remaining powers.
Rather than saying that Rujun was talking about the imperial court's merit-based awards, it was better that he was talking about the existence of the Ministry of War.
Zhu Yunxi smiled slightly: "The Ministry of War has worked hard these years."
He didn't say any more words, but as soon as he said these words, Ru Rui's face became visibly relaxed.
In the surrounding area, the officials who originally had contempt for the Ministry of War due to the re-establishment of the Metropolitan Governor's Office and the continuous stripping of the Ministry of War's authority have quietly restrained their contempt for the Ministry of War these days.
Zhu Yunxi looked at Ru Yu, a veteran minister who had been sitting in the position of Minister of the Ministry of War for many years.
"Since the Ministry of War has archived it, the merits of this Eastern Expedition and the Southern Expedition should be sorted out by the Ministry of War."
Ru Yu felt a little grateful in her heart and cupped her hands and said: "My lord, take your orders."
Zhu Yunxi waved his hand and continued: "Actually, the rewards for the Eastern and Southern Expeditions still have to be judged by His Majesty. But the soldiers have been away fighting for many years, and the court cannot forget them.
The Ministry of War will review it clearly with the Governor's Office. There must be no errors or omissions in the military merits of the officers and soldiers in the Eastern Expedition and the Southern Expedition.
On the contrary, it was the reward given by the founding Duke and Cao Guogong. If Jin was awarded the title of king, the title of king would be easy to obtain. Following the royal titles of their fathers, the two men complemented each other. After the Ministry of War and the Governor's Office sorted out the military achievements of the officers and soldiers in the Eastern and Southern Expeditions, they wrote a memorial together and submitted it to the cabinet before sending it to His Majesty for reading. "
After Zhu Yunxi finished speaking, the civil and military officials who arrived at Wenyuan Pavilion today all bowed down to take orders.
As for the founding Duke Chang Sheng and Cao Guogong Li Jinglong, the royal titles submitted to the emperor through court consultation did not need to be complicated.
The father of the founding Duke Chang Sheng was Chang Yuchun, who was known as Chang Shiwan in the army. During his lifetime, he was an official in Zhongshu Pingzhang and was responsible for important military affairs. He was also the prince Shaobao and was granted the title of Duke of E.
In the second year of Hongwu's reign, Chang Yuchunbao died in the army at the age of forty.
The imperial court posthumously awarded him Yi Yun Cheng, Xuande Jingyuan Meritorious Officer, Kaifu Yitong Sansi, Shangzhu Guo, Taibao, Zhongshu You Prime Minister, posthumously named Kaiping King, posthumous title Zhongwu, and was entitled to enjoy the Imperial Ancestral Temple.
King Zhongwu of Kaiping is Chang Yuchun's royal title.
It is impossible for a prince of the Ming Dynasty to be given a different surname no matter what. The two-character title of "County Prince" is the highest honor for Chang Sheng, Li Jinglong and others.
Chang Sheng's father, Chang Yuchun, screamed and pursued the title of King of Kaiping. If he is now promoted to the title of King of Kaiping due to his merits, he will naturally be blameless.
The same situation happened to Cao Guogong Li Jinglong.
During the Hongwu period of the early Republic of China, Li Jinglong's father Li Wenzhong was awarded the title of Cao Guogong for his meritorious service. In the twelfth year of Hongwu's reign, he was appointed as the governor of the governor's office and also in charge of the Imperial College. In the seventeenth year of Hongwu, Li Wenzhong died of illness. The imperial court named him King of Qiyang with the posthumous title Wu Jing. He was entitled to enjoy the Imperial Ancestral Temple. His portrait was hung in the Temple of Meritorious Officials. He was ranked third and buried in Zhongshan Mountain.
Li Jinglong's current title of Duke Cao is the title he inherited from Li Wenzhong. He and Chang Sheng were in a similar situation. In terms of merit and promotion, the Prince of Qiyang was the most suitable.
At this point, all the matters arising from the victory of the Eastern Expedition today have been discussed.
Zhu Yunxi also had the intention of leaving Wenyuan Pavilion.
On the other hand, Zhu Gaochi coughed lightly and looked at Zhu Yunxi with dull eyes.
Only then did Zhu Yunxi remember it, he steadied his feet that were about to lift up just now, and said softly: "There is one more thing that needs to be discussed by the cabinet as soon as possible, and the regulations should be written and submitted to the emperor."
Ren Hengtai was exhausted today and seemed a little tired at this time. He cupped his hands together and whispered: "Your Highness, please speak."
Zhu Yunxi smiled and said: "It's not a big deal, I just feel that although Yingzhou is not a small place, it is isolated overseas, so the court cannot set up too big a road. The cabinet will come up with it as soon as possible, and how many places should be set up for Yingzhou? Dao, when the time comes, we will send them along with the merit examination of the officers and soldiers of the Eastern Expedition and the Southern Expedition."
Even if the entire land of Yingzhou is added up, it is not the largest among the current Fifteen Dao of the Ming Dynasty.
But destroying the Japanese species was not Zhu Yunxi’s last step.
Completely dividing Yingzhou, a large island outside the East China Sea, and allowing it to die from its roots is Zhu Yunxi's ultimate goal.
No matter how big Yingzhou is, can it be bigger than Shaanxi Road? Can it be bigger than Huguang Road?
Obviously, Ren Hengtai, the chief minister of the cabinet, was well aware of the emperor's grandson's intentions.
He didn't object much and just replied softly: "Wei Chen has accepted the order and will sort out these two matters today."
Zhu Yunxi nodded: "With you in the cabinet, not only I, but also your majesty and the prince are relieved."
After that, Zhu Yunxi ignored the civil and military crowd and left on his own.
"I will respectfully send you off to His Royal Highness the Emperor Grandson."
All the officials bowed their hands and shouted respectfully.
After waiting for a long time, Ren Hengtai was the first to straighten up.
He sighed silently and said, "Everyone, I would like to trouble you to supervise and handle the matters entrusted to you by Your Highness today as soon as possible."
After saying that, Ren Hengtai waved his robes with both arms and turned around to enter the house.
Wang Jun, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, who was completely deemed unsuitable today, had a look of panic on his face, and walked forward quickly without caring about how many people were present.
"Ren Ge Lao!"
Xie Jin, Xu Yungong, and Gao Yangzhi, who were about to enter the house behind Ren Hengtai, stopped in unison, turned their heads and looked calmly at the anxious-looking Minister of the Ministry of Industry.
Ren Hengtai finally let out a loud sigh, turned around and glanced at Wang Jun indifferently: "The Ministry of Industry has a lot of affairs now, and construction is going on everywhere in the court.
Pan Deshan was on the embankment of the Yellow River, sleeping in the wind and rain, and heard that he personally led people to build embankments to resist materials. Zhang Ergong rushed around day and night at Taipingfu Mine, Longjiang Shipyard and several cement roads under construction.
The affairs of the Ministry of Industry are very important. Wang Shangshu should go back as soon as possible and don't let the ministry's affairs stagnate. Now that the country is undergoing a new campaign, all ministries and departments should also be more diligent. "
At the end of his speech, Ren Hengtai looked past the gray-faced Wang Jun and looked at the other court officials in front of him.
"This time, the second quarter of gold and silver from Yingzhou is about to be released to Beijing. His Highness has communicated with the Cabinet before, and His Highness has already informed His Majesty. The imperial court has been living a tight life in these years, except for those unclean hands and feet. Yes, most are too tight.
At that time, a portion of the income from the second quarter will be distributed, and it can be regarded as a reward for the happiness of the Taisun's family. There is no need for everyone in the imperial court to write letters of thanks, they can just do their own government affairs diligently. "
Wang Jun is finished.
The chief assistant used Pan Deshan and Zhang Ergong as examples. He did not simply say that the Ministry of Industry had too many things to do. The Chief Assistant was warning Wang Jun that he, the Minister of Works, could not be the Minister, and the court would immediately find two more suitable people to take the position of Minister of the Ministry of Works.
But no one cares what will happen to this idiot Wang Jun.
Now everyone is looking forward to Yingzhou's second quarter earnings and when it will be released to Beijing.
Yuan Sutai should have given himself a half-day of rest today, so that he could temporarily stay away from the fields of crops in Shanglin Yuanjian and clear his mind with countless complicated thoughts.
At this time, he heard that the court was going to reward him with gold and silver, and a smile appeared on his face.
Yuan Sutai raised his hands and faced the direction of Qianqing Palace.
"Thank you, humble minister. Long live my emperor."
As soon as Master Yuan opened his mouth, everyone present raised their hands towards Qianqing Palace and thanked him.
That’s it for now.
Many of the civil servants present today were promoted after the previous imperial court begged for bones. Although they were hesitant about the imperial court conferring titles on kings with different surnames, they had no further thoughts.
The turmoil in the court this year has been too fierce. At this time, no one wants to have any major troubles in the court.
At least, you should wait until your butt has warmed the seat underneath before talking about anything else.
The civil servants were leaving.
Cao Zhen looked left and right, but suddenly he raised his arms and shouted: "Old brothers, today I, Cao, will be the host, and the Jiaofang Secretary will have a drink! Celebrate my Ming Dynasty!"
Marquis Jingchuan had no scruples or cover-ups at all.
It immediately attracted a group of meritorious generals in Beijing to cheer loudly.
The civil servants all looked sideways, with mixed feelings, but they just shook their heads.
But inside the cabinet, Xu Yungong's scolding came from behind: "You bastard!"
Cao Zhen immediately shrank his head.
Kick, kick, kick.
In the cabinet, at this time, another young Hanlin came out and came to Jingchuan Hou Cao Zhen.
"Marquis Cao, the prince said that you are all national meritorious generals and hold official positions. The imperial court is not allowed to drink wine, but it is better to wait until the imperial court orders Maoxia Yamen before going. The rules cannot be abolished. If it is in vain, King Gu According to law, the Lord personally called the people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate to impeach you."
Cao Zhen's face was tense, and he nodded repeatedly: "I know, I know. Please tell me, sir, that we people still know the rules. We will go to the Governor's Mansion to discuss military affairs, and we will go to the Yamen after dinner."
Hanlin didn't say much, he just said yes and turned back into the cabinet room.
Cao Zhen stared at the squad room for a long time, and when he saw that there were no more scoldings inside, he took a deep breath, turned around, straightened his chest, and looked at the meritorious generals around him.
Cao Zhen grinned again and said: "Go to the Governor's Mansion! We still have to discuss the matter of suppressing Yingzhou. The officers and men will take turns, which is a lot of things."
Some people rolled their eyes at Cao Zhen.
This guy is just returning to the capital for a turn. When the new batch of Beijing troops are reorganized, they will continue to lead their troops out of the capital to join Liang Guogong and Xipinghou.
No matter how many things there are in the Governor's Mansion now, it has nothing to do with him.
"Go back to the Governor's Mansion! After we finish our work, our brothers, each of us must order ten points today!"
Someone growled.
Even then, someone smiled evilly at Cao Zhen, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you so much, Marquis Cao, for hosting the banquet today. Brothers, please remember this!"
Cao Zhen looked at the meritorious generals present, and his face turned green without counting the number of them.
…
"Ahhhhhhh..."
"Uh-huh, uh-huh..."
"Sheng'er, be good, don't cry, don't cry, grandpa will make faces for you!"
"You dog slave, get out of the way. Fu Ling is having a bowel movement, so stay out of the way and come over with a diaper."
Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Gaochi had just arrived at the Qing Palace when they heard the sound of children crying, the old man coaxing children and scolding from inside the palace.
When the two of them entered the main hall of the palace, they saw that little Zhu Wensheng had already obediently stopped crying with just a few pats from the old man.
The old man even took the diaper from Sun Gou'er and was about to put a new diaper on Zhu Fuling next to Zhu Wensheng.
When Zhu Gaochi saw this scene, the corners of his eyes trembled a few times.
Zhu Yunxi hurriedly stepped forward and snatched the diaper from the old man's hand: "How can you do this job? Just send the child to the harem and let Queqing and Caiyun handle it. Even if you don't want to let them Two people are affected, and there are so many nuns in the palace, so we just have to do what we do."
As he said that, Zhu Yunxi was already looking at the two pitiful palace maids in the corner, with expressions on their faces worrying that they might lose their jobs at any time.
The palace maid hurriedly stepped forward and took the diaper from the grandson's hand.
Zhu Yuanzhang, on the other hand, snorted dissatisfiedly and said: "You are teasing your grandson with pleasure, you are teasing your grandson with pleasure. This is what I should be doing at my age. You kid is causing trouble for me every day."
Zhu Yunxi was a little helpless.
That’s not what your old man said at the beginning!
Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the palace maid who was changing the diaper of his beloved granddaughter Zhu Fuling. He felt relieved when he saw that her hands were moving gently.
He turned to look at Zhu Yunxi: "How is that boy Li Jinglong? What did the cabinet discuss today."
Zhu Yunxi immediately said: "Gong Cao Guo has contributed to the destruction of the country. Today, my grandson was in the cabinet and discussed with the courtiers the issue of the Jin Dynasty title for the Founding Duke and Cao Guo Gong. There are also matters about the rewards for the meritorious officers and soldiers in the Eastern and Southern Expeditions, and the Yingzhou branch. A few things to level the place."
"snort!"
Zhu Yuanzhang immediately snorted even more seriously: "It's just a matter of making those two boys a county king. I asked you to leave me here to cause trouble and delay my grandson!"
