The queen's absolute words made Zhu Jianshen a little confused.

He looked at the queen and felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

However, after returning to the palace, Zhu Jianshen could only put the matter aside for the time being, because a memorial from Shi Biao was sent to the Qianqing Palace.

Shi Biao's memorial is the report of the great victory.

At this time, the Ming army had 130,000 troops in Annan. Among these 100,000 troops, there were 30,000 nobles from the north, 50,000 guards from Guangxi, Sichuan, and Yunnan, 20,000 chieftains' entourage, and 30,000 soldiers from the north and south of Annan. Soldiers who have been scattered over the years.

Over the years, the great war in Annan has disappeared, but small-scale wars have always existed.

Especially in the 17th year of Chenghua.

The powerful powers in the south rebelled one after another, and the Ming army also began to suppress them again and again. The situation in the south was originally okay, but with the rebellion launched by the powerful powers in the south, the south of Annan turned into a big battlefield. At this time, nine of the ten rooms were empty, a purgatory on earth.

Nearly 80% of the hundreds of thousands of troops were deployed in the south. Shi Biao personally led the army to fight. At the beginning of the 18th year of Chenghua, two relatively powerful rebels broke through the Ming army's blockade and joined together. The number one thief With one hundred thousand troops and more than a thousand elephant soldiers, they issued a proclamation to drive out the Han people in Wu and reestablish the Annan Dynasty. Once this proclamation was released, it really seemed like that.

There were many clouds rising in various places, but a single spark did not start a prairie fire.

The rebels in various places did not belong to each other and were defeated one by one by the Ming army.

One month after the announcement of the proclamation, the main force of the rebel army, more than 30,000 people, were killed, and more than 100,000 people who followed the people were killed. The Ming army massacred villages and cities, reaching the highest climax in history in these two months. , in less than a year, the people south of Thanh Hoa experienced human tragedies, either being massacred or suffering from famine, and the population dropped from the initial 980,000 to 300,000.

After reading Shi Biao's report, Zhu Jianshen knew that Annan had completely recovered.

Because the whole of Annan has exhausted their blood of resistance, within the past fifty years, even if the Han people treated them like slaves, they could not make any setbacks.

Of course, in a war like this.

The Ming army also paid a heavy price, with over 10,000 casualties, which was the largest casualty since the Ming army entered Annan. Shi Biao's memorial was not to seek credit for himself, but to strive for more pensions for the soldiers who died in Annan. , and hoped that His Majesty the Emperor could build a Yingwu Temple and a military monument for the soldiers who died in the battle on the main battlefield in Annan.

Just like those inscriptions in Tumu Fort, an important city on the nine sides.

After reading it, Zhu Jianshen sighed deeply. Soldiers who died on the battlefield should be respected and receive compensation after death.

He immediately summoned Ning Guogong Chen Ying, Li Xian, Xu Youzhen, Han Yong and others to the palace to discuss the matter.

During this southern tour, the state treasury was enriched by the seizure of family properties that were plotting against restoration, and the ministers were now rich in money and food.

Driven by Zhu Jianshen.

A series of pension standards were formulated for the soldiers who died on the battlefield in Annan.

If the family does not pay taxes for ten years, they can receive the same salary every year for ten years. If there are young soldiers in the family, an additional ten taels of silver will be given every year. Each soldier can receive a one-time pension of thirty taels of silver.

And officials from the Ministry of Rites went there to build temples and erect monuments...

Afterwards, Zhu Jianshen specially approved one million taels of silver to reward Annan's three armies, and issued an imperial edict that all Annan's generals were promoted to one level. The chief general, Shi Biao, was added to General Zhaowu: a first-class military attache...

Zhu Jianshen also knew that Annan would gradually stabilize after this war, and he would also have to consider Shi Biao's whereabouts.

Shi Biao wanted to stay in Annan and was unwilling to return to the capital. Of course, part of the reason was because he had killed Shi Heng and was too embarrassed to face his aunt and enter the ancestral hall. But Zhu Jianshen did not want Shi Biao to do it from the beginning. Biao has stayed in Annan.

Like Shi Biao's request, Mu Zan, the Duke of Qian in Yunnan, also submitted a letter, wanting the Duke of Guizhou to move south to Qinghua City, Annan, the world town of Annan.

It is more in line with the interests of the Ming Dynasty to move the Duke of Guizhou's mansion to the south...

As for Shi Biao staying in Annan, firstly, it was a waste of his military experience and talents; secondly, Zhu Jianshen was also somewhat worried.

Muying is the godson of Emperor Taizu Gao, and there is no need to doubt their family's loyalty.

With an army of 100,000 in his hands, Zhu Jianshen was really relieved. As an emperor, he had many things to consider. There would be no problem at this stage if Shi Biao killed his uncle in front of the formation, and Zhu Jianshen had no reason to doubt him.

But people change...

After much deliberation, Zhu Jianshen decided to move the Duke of Guizhou's government south. After Shi Biao's situation in Annan was completely stabilized, he transferred it back to the north and kept it for future use.

After discussing with the ministers and preparing all the imperial edicts, it was already evening. For some reason, Zhu Jianshen always felt a little uneasy. After drinking some rice porridge, he thought about going to bed early, but lying in bed, his heart was in trouble. clam down.

At this time, in Kunning Palace.

Queen Zhang Yan was sitting on a chair, while Zhu Youhua was kneeling on the ground, his face full of dissatisfaction...

The sixth child, Zhu Youkai, was outside, and several little palace maids were playing with him. Their clever laughter spread into the palace from time to time...

"If you were a child of an ordinary family, you would have to pay with your life if you killed someone. Your father is extremely unhappy with you now. Why don't you realize your mistake yet?" Zhang Yan said coldly.

Zhu Youhua is no longer afraid of his mother at this time. He is used to being arrogant. He knows that his mother has nothing to do with him.

"Mother, the child doesn't know what killing is, and the child doesn't understand either. The child just wants to watch people swimming. They jumped in one after another to let the child watch, but the child did not force them..."

What Zhu Youhua said was half true and false.

But at the beginning, he did just casually say whether he could survive in the water, and someone immediately jumped in and gave Zhu Youhua a good performance.

And this evil in his heart started from that time. He likes to watch people struggling in the water. Whoever has good acting skills will get many rewards.

But in the end, he discovered that no matter how painful or helpless the people who jumped were acting, they would all come out alive. Then, he had an idea, if he was not allowed to Going ashore, wouldn’t it be more exciting?

When Zhu Youhua told Zhang Daban of his idea, if Zhang Tong had reported it to the queen immediately, Zhu Youhua would have been stopped in time. However, Zhang Tong was afraid that Zhu Youhua would not like him, and he would lose his hard-won status. He chose to help Zhu Youhua.

Likewise, it also harmed Zhu Youhua.

If a person doesn't have the slightest bit of restraint and no fear, there will be no punishment for anything he does, and there will be serious consequences. That person is the most ruthless creature in the world, whether you are a child or an adult...
