Due to the military situation, other matters had to be suspended, but Zhu Houzhao still did not forget to bring some sweet potatoes back to the palace.
This thing is not suitable for eating as a staple food three times a day, but if the roasted sweet potato is only eaten as a snack or something, it is still delicious.
Traveling back to this era, he is indeed unparalleled in status. However, due to the limitations of the times, many things have already left him. If he can find something familiar to reminisce about, of course he cannot let it go.
It's a pity that now in the cultivation and promotion stage, I can't eat them all, so I just wanted to satisfy my craving. I took about 10 of them, thinking that I would give some to the concubines in the harem.
This is nothing, the key is the report he carried in his arms.
Listening to the pattering of horse hooves, Zhu Houzhao moved inside the carriage, lifted the door curtain and looked at the private houses on both sides of the capital quietly, while his thoughts had already flown thousands of miles away.
Even though he was not in Ningxia, he could basically be sure that the Anhua County Prince's rebellion would not cause any serious trouble.
It's just that the feudal king rebelled, which was really nothing to add glory to.
"Your Majesty, what are you thinking about?" Outside the emperor's carriage, Xu Guan was riding a horse to guard him.
"Nothing. By the way, does the man named Han Twelve Lang have a special relationship with you?"
"Weichen is indeed familiar with him."
"He has made new achievements."
Xu Guan was delighted, but said: "That is also thanks to His Majesty. Without Your Majesty's planning, he would not have achieved any great achievements."
Zhu Houzhao was speechless, "Why do you just talk to Liu Jinxue?"
Liu Jin: ┭┮﹏┭┮
"I, I, I am telling the truth." Xu Guan smiled sheepishly.
This is silly.
The chief soldier and deputy chief soldier of Ningxia Town were indeed dead. Zhu Houzhao originally thought that these corrupt officials would not be of much use, but he did not expect that they could still stick to the bottom line on major issues of right and wrong.
Most people may be like this. They are greedy for small things, but it is different when they encounter big problems.
In this way, regardless of the past, as the emperor, he would give these two people some posthumous honors.
At the same time, Ningxia Town does not yet have a general soldier.
After the establishment of Shuofang Town, the military status of Ningxia Town declined, and the status of the military garrison became more important.
In addition, a new garrison eunuch must be sent.
The emperor shook his sleeves and his expression became serious again.
After arriving in the palace, he only retained four cabinet ministers.
Apart from them, only Liu Jin was playing with the incense ash, scooping it out and pouring it out, then covering it with the golden lid. Then a stream of incense floated out, and white smoke slowly rose.
The gentle breeze passing through the hall blew the emperor's long black hair, this refreshing feeling... Autumn just made him feel more comfortable than summer.
Three old men and one middle-aged man were behind him, each sitting on a stool.
At some point in the quiet hall, the emperor's voice came out,
"It is the decree of the imperial court to clean up the pastures and military camps. I..." Zhu Houzhao turned sideways and said, "I and all the cabinet ministers had already thought about it at the time. The pros and cons... The four of you are all very knowledgeable people. Talented people would never say anything about the shortcomings of military settlements that should not be eliminated."
The emperor waved his hand.
Liu Jin, who was standing next to him, understood the situation and handed the memorial to Yang Yiqing first.
At the same time, the emperor continued: "I remember what Mr. Wang just said: There will be no hungry people in the Ming Dynasty. The vision is great, but I'm afraid it will not be easy. No matter how high the yield of sweet potatoes is, if the people have no land at all, However, those are still hungry people.
In the past, you all used to talk about sage kings and benevolent kings in my ears. Of course I would not dislike these titles. But apart from these titles, what I care most about is the strength of the country and the prosperity of the people. For this reason, I have come to this day. But I didn't expect...but I didn't expect that there would be a rebellion within the sect now...Did I do something wrong? "
Mr. Ge is not an ordinary person after all.
Yang Yiqing saw the words "Wang An's Rebellion" in plain sight. Although his eyes widened suddenly, he did not act impolite in front of the emperor and waited until the three colleagues behind him had finished reading.
"Your Majesty did nothing wrong." Mr. Yang Ge lifted his butt off the stool and bent down to reply, "Even if they are born from the same father and mother, there is still a difference between virtuous and unworthy. Although the rebel king is a descendant of Taizu, he still commits treason. , is something that God will not tolerate. Why should Your Majesty be harsh on yourself?"
Wang Bing was also shocked, and he said: "What Mr. Yang Ge said is true. Since His Majesty's reign, everything has been renewed and prosperous, and the world has shown signs of resurgence. Occasionally, there are those who rebel against the king, and it is these unscrupulous descendants who have turned their backs on their ancestors and the world. Minister. I thought that at this time, the imperial court should dispatch a large army to quell the rebellion with thunder and shake Xiaoxiao!"
"Yizhen Xiaoxiao?" Zhu Houzhao turned around, "Does the Xiaoxiao that Mr. Wangge said refer to other vassal kings in the world?"
When the four pavilion elders heard the emperor's words, their hearts beat violently.
Could it be that King Anhua's rebellion caused His Majesty to have doubts about all the vassal kings in the world?
Even Wang Bing, as the elder of the pavilion, did not dare to take on this kind of thing. He immediately explained: "A minister refers to a person who is not loyal to the emperor and father. Your Majesty always attaches great importance to the relationship between relatives, and there will never be a second person in the clan." There are more vassal kings who are safe and considerate of His Majesty."
"Okay. I won't argue with you about this." Zhu Houzhao passed by the water and gave them a hint first, "Then he said that the matter of clearing the pastures and military camps should continue. The court has to make a decision on this. Otherwise, Shaanxi officials may not know what to do."
Wang Hao said: "Your Majesty, should we put down the rebellion first?"
"You have to ask Mr. Yang Ge about this. Shaanxi Governor Wang Tingxiang is a member of Mr. Yang Ge."
Yang Yiqing said calmly: "Under the sky, all the people are the king's soil; on the shore of the land, are the king's ministers. There are no people in the world who are not Yangge Lao, they are all your majesty's people."
Zhu Houzhao smiled and said, "Do you think Mr. Yang Ge can quell the rebellion?"
"Ningxia Town is bordered by Shuofang to the north and Guyuan and Gansu to the west. It is difficult for an anti-king to accomplish anything. However, I don't know how much criticism has been caused by cleaning up military camps and pastures."
"Who is criticizing?" Zhu Houzhao asked.
"Of course they are those who invaded the military camp."
"What's the criticism?" Zhu Houzhao still refused.
But there is no way to answer this question.
With a cry, the autumn wind blew by again.
Why can't I answer it? Because the content of the criticism is to clean up the military villages, and cleaning up the military villages... is an imperial decree.
Zhu Houzhao said with some fierceness, "If my imperial edict is in line with their wishes, they will abide by it. If it does not suit their wishes, they will not abide by it? Then who has the final say in this world?! If you think about it carefully, those people are more like It’s an emperor!”
Four bangs.
The four pavilion elders all knelt down.
Understanding this matter from this perspective is a big problem.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. I thought Ningxia Town would not be so bold! No one would dare to disobey His Majesty's imperial edict! It's just that An Ni deceived people and deceived the people, so this happened."
Zhu Houzhao said simply: "I can't do so many twists and turns. The key to Ningxia's rebellion is not what I think, but what the world thinks. I have no choice but to tell the world what the imperial edict is. Mr. Yang Ge ,"
"The old minister is here."
"You have a message for Wang Tingxiang. Just say that the imperial edict has been issued and there is no reason to change it. Ask him to cooperate with Zhang Cong and complete the cleanup of the military camp as soon as possible. If anyone is really dissatisfied, then let him learn from An and raise troops against the grain. rebel!"
Wang Hao was a little worried, and he said silently: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to break just now."
"Sir, these words should be said to those rebels. My imperial edict is useless. This is because they have just passed the test. They want to put me on the fire. If the imperial court retreats from this matter, it will not only clean up the military garrison." It is impossible to do anything other than a slightly difficult task. The imperial edict cannot be violated!"
