The matter in Liaodong mentioned by Zhu Jianshen was to ask Zhu Ji to go to Liaoping Mansion and assist Shi Biao in organizing the first army composed exclusively of Jurchens in Liaoping Mansion.
The administrative and military administration of Liaoping Mansion is now almost complete.
At the end of the eighth year of his stay in Chenghua, Shi Heng, in order to better deter North Korea, reported to Zhu Jianshen and proposed to set up the Liaodong Deputy General Military Mansion in Anping County, Liaodong. The deputy commander-in-chief was Shi Biao, and Zhu Jianshen agreed.
The construction of Liaoping City was coming to an end. The first magistrate of Liaoping Prefecture, who held the third rank title, was Wang Hong, general magistrate of Taining Prefecture, Shandong Province. Before Wang Hong entered Liaodong, he went to the capital and received imperial courtesy.
The officials below were also selected by Sun Xiang, the governor of Liaodong. There were not enough scholars, so Sun Xiang wrote a letter to select veteran generals who had served the country among the military households and arranged to work as officials in Liaoping Mansion to manage the Jurchens.
Zhu Jianshen also agreed, and he also thought that Sun Xiang's idea was a good idea, but he also put forward his own request, which was to select people with meritorious service and those who had no ability to farm as officials, and also solve the problem of resettling some injured sergeants.
Under Sun Xiang's arrangement, more than 60 former grassroots officials from Guangning, Shenyang, Fushun, Jinzhou, Haizhou and other places were transformed into high-ranking officials in Liaoping Prefecture, and more than 600 veterans from military households also dragged their families. The leader arrived at Liaoping City and took charge of the hundreds of households below.
The first set of military and political ruling collectives in Liaoping Mansion took shape.
At the beginning of the ninth year of Chenghua, Shi Biao was promoted to deputy general of the army for the first time. Although he was the deputy general of the army, he exercised the power of the general of the army and governed Liaoping Prefecture. He was subordinated to four deputy generals, eight guerrillas, and twelve thousand generals. , counting the troops and horses of the headquarters, there are 30,000 cavalry and 20,000 infantry.
For the first time, the 50,000-strong army exceeded the sum of Fushun and Shenyang. Of course, the deployment of so many troops was a bit stretched for the vast Liaoping Prefecture.
In the ninth year of Chenghua, Shi Heng once again asked whether Jurchen soldiers could be formed. Zhu Jianshen replied, yes, but they could not stay in place and needed to be exchanged. They could discuss with Duke Chengguo and exchange with Jiubian.
The bottom line is that the Jurchen army cannot stay in Liaoping Mansion. Let them stay in Xuanfu and Datong for two or three years first.
Although Cheng Guogong and Shi Heng were not on good terms, they did not dare to delay the matters assigned by His Majesty. At that time, Cheng Guogong arranged for Datong and Xuanfu border towns to accommodate more than 5,000 Jurchen soldiers.
Zhu Jian thought about it deeply and decided to let Zhu Ji go there in person.
Because this time, according to the books written by Shi Heng, Shi Biao, Cheng Guogong and others, people between the ages of fifteen and twenty should be allowed to join the army. This first group of people experienced the most severe torture by the Ming army. At that time, they were transferred to Xuan Mansion. During Datong training, there must be enough spies.
And Zhu Ji went there personally to select hundreds of these people and develop them into Ming's subordinates in the Jurchen army.
This is a sharp blade, you must use it with caution...
After Zhu Ji withdrew, Zhu Jianshen immediately summoned Yu Qian and told Yu Qian about the incident. Yu Qian had no objection to Zhu Jianshen's treatment of the students.
The biggest reason is that Yu Qian has gradually changed. Now His Majesty is no longer the little emperor who is held in the arms of the Empress Dowager and cries from time to time.
He has grown up.
When emperors grow up, the most taboo thing is for someone to take away the power in their hands. Even if it is a suggestion, he will overthink it.
Therefore, as long as it was not excessive, Yu Qian let it go and didn't say much.
Of course, Yu Qian's change is the result of Li Xian's decades of hard work...
Zhu Ji, who left the palace, did not even return home, but returned directly to the Yamen, taking three thousand households and hundreds of Jin Yiwei directly south...
Yingtian Mansion...
Yingtianfu's new tax system has been implemented, and the progress is very fast.
But Xu Youzhen used a lot of tricks to beat the officials of Yingtian Mansion, but he forgot to teach those young and hairless Imperial College students.
After Xu Youzhen's court meeting at Fengtian Palace, she faced her first ambush from the Imperial College of the Capital.
However, at that time, the capital's vigilance level was relatively high, and the Imperial College was also the focus of Jin Yiwei's attention. Therefore, just when the Imperial Guard was preparing to ambush, the Imperial College was discovered and captured.
But more than two months later, Xu Youzhen still didn't run away.
There are no officials in Yingtian Mansion who openly oppose it, and the land surveying has been progressing very quickly.
But the seeds of resistance still drifted to the last piece of soil, the Imperial College, and gradually took root and sprouted.
At first they were the children of Yingtian officials, but what they talked about was the content of the new tax system. Under their father's instructions, they were very sensitive to it and did not express any dissatisfaction with the new tax system.
But when other Tai students who were not well-informed found out, they got out of hand.
At first, it slowly fermented inside the Imperial College.
At first, I didn't go to class alone.
Then dozens of people, and finally dozens of people.
I am over 70 years old, and I went to find them to comfort them. Is there any psychological burden? Why don't I study anymore?
An imperial student replied: "At first, we studied for the imperial court and the common people. But once the new tax system was promoted, the spirit of scholars no longer existed, and the righteousness of a great country no longer existed, and we no longer found a reason to study. Born in the world, we are like ants. Only the way of the sages can make us understand things. Without the etiquette of the sages, we can only follow our own hearts and use our own actions to tell the court about our students' sincere heart."
After these words spread, they had a sensational effect on the Imperial College. Some wise imperial students still turned a deaf ear to the outside world and only read the books of sages. However, there were also a large number of imperial students who were affected by these words and did not attend class. .
They wanted Jijiu to report the matter to the official of the Ministry of Rites as soon as possible.
However, in response to the arrest of the Minister of Rites of Tianfu, the minister, Lang Zhongguan and other officials also understood that if they reported the situation of Tianfu Imperial College to the court at this time, His Majesty might misunderstand.
They still thought it was them who was instigating him, and they were concealing the true situation of the Imperial College.
There was no report from the Ministry of Rites, and there were no rules for offering wine.
Classes are open, whether you love or not, and whether you learn or not are all your business.
The Tai students who went on strike were left out for more than ten days without any attention.
Seeing that waiting like this was not an option, these students jointly wrote a petition and went to the Ministry of Etiquette.
The Ministry of Rites accepted the petition, and the minister came to appease the imperial student.
But after these imperial students left.
Hundreds of people signed a petition denouncing the new tax system and impeaching Xu Youzhen, but it was burned to the ground.
These imperial students waited eagerly for another month, but still no one responded to them.
Some were even more annoyed and angry, angrily scolding the officials for protecting each other, while others were silent, understood that things must be done, and went back to class and study honestly.
These even more angry students learned about Xu Youzhen through various channels.
Xu Youzhen, the leader of the capitulation after the Tumubao Incident, and the Southern Migration Faction. Ever since His Majesty the Emperor became wise, he has been acting as a eunuch in front of His Majesty, making slanderous remarks and doing things that harm the country. He is more than Wang Zhen. There is no difference in the rest. .
He went on a mission to North Korea, and after he came back, the country began to have civil strife. He was really a minister who brought harm to the country and the people. After harming North Korea, he wanted to harm the Ming Dynasty again after he came back.
The new tax system was proposed by Xu Youzhen. He deceived all the officials of the court, deceived Yu Taibao, Li Fuchen, and deceived His Majesty, but he could not deceive us, the aspiring Ming Dynasty students who are devoted to the country and full of passion.
The imperial students scolded Xu Youzhen every day, in the Imperial Academy and on the streets. After drinking, they went to the government office to scold Xu Youzhen.
At this time, Xu Youzhen had already discovered something was wrong with the imperial students, but he didn't just ignore them.
The biggest reason was that Xu Youzhen was careless and didn't dodge.
He thinks he knows scholars. In his opinion, scholars without any fame have negligible influence on the new tax system.
The various departments and yamen of Yingtian Mansion did not ask any questions, in order not to affect the implementation of the new tax system and cause trouble.
Xu Youzhen didn't want to cause this trouble, so she talked openly about Tai students' opposition to the new tax system.
Amid the scolding, more rumors spread.
Some people say that Xu Youzhen arrested more than a dozen officials at all levels in Yingtian Prefecture for improper reasons to force other officials to succumb to the new policy of chaos.
Some people say that Xu Youzhen used this to make a lot of money from the national crisis, often accepting bribes from Yingtian officials, cheating with Xu Youzhen, and implementing a new tax system, which actually became a tool for himself to make money.
Some people also say that the current Duke of Wei is closely aligned with Xu Youzhen. They attack literati officials, criticize the ancestral system, and belittle the scholarly style, just to let Wu Xun carry the Ming Dynasty again.
Xu Youzhen's own reputation as a scholar was not good. Coupled with the occurrence of these things, big hats were slapped on her. The asymmetry of information made the students regard Xu Youzhen as the first person to steal the country during the Chenghua period.
From the initial superficial dissatisfaction to the organized and purposeful implementation, Xu Youzhen must be given a good look.
To eliminate thieves for the country, the core team consists of more than 30 people. The leader is Qian Guangdi, a famous talent in the south of the Yangtze River. He can pick up girls and compose poems every day, but he fails in the imperial examination every year.
Under the leadership of Qian Guangdi, these core personnel made inquiries and learned from other channels that Xu Youzhen was coming to the city on August 12th. It would be a good opportunity then.
However, these Tai students have never planned this kind of thing, and they are obviously inexperienced. The guys they prepared are only short sticks and wooden boards, which are obviously unable to kill anyone. biquge.biz
August 12 is a very good day for Xu Youzhen.
It was also on this day that the first step of Yingtianfu's new tax system, measuring the land of officials and gentry, was initially completed.
In less than two months, the household registration and land register has been almost completed. This speed is faster than that of Fengyang Mansion in Zhongdu and the capital.
Although Xu Youzhen was reviled and slandered, he didn't care at all.
As long as the task is completed well, your banner will never fall.
Xu Youzhen returned to Yingtian Mansion from Shangyuan and entered the city through Yifeng Gate. He was accompanied by more than 30 Yingtian officials, more than 300 accompanying soldiers, and more than 60 Jinyi guards.
Xu Yan rode next to Xu Youzhen's carriage. During this period, he really did everything himself, worked hard, got up early and went to bed late, mingled with the officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs who came from the capital, and of course established a relationship with Xu Youzhen. Deep feelings arose.
This made Wei Guogong watch eagerly and felt very uncomfortable.
Xu Youzhen, who was sitting on a carriage with enhanced security, crossed her legs and closed her eyes, thinking about His Majesty's commendation to her after she returned to the capital. I feel extremely comfortable in my heart.
Suddenly, the carriage stopped, and a series of chaotic sounds came from the city gate.
"We want to see the censor of Xudu..."
"We want to see the censor of Xudu..."
Xu Youzhen stuck her head out, feeling a little strange.
At this time, Xu Yan and Zhao Cong, who were riding horses, also rushed over from the front.
Zhao Cong was about to speak, but Xu Yan beat him to it.
"Censor of Xudu, the group of scholars from the Imperial College are blocking the road ahead. I will lead people to drive them away."
After Zhao Cong listened to Xu Er's words, he glanced at him. In the past two months, Xu Er had opened Zhao Cong's horizons.
Xu Er is the eldest son of the Duke of Wei, and his status is logically higher than that of Xu Youzhen.
But regardless of his identity, he desperately fawned over Xu Youzhen, almost treating Xu Youzhen as his father.
