Chapter 412: The Three Great Edicts

The era of Jianwen, like fireworks, ended after just four years.

A new dynasty, the era of Yongle has come. Although its ascension ceremony was shabby because of its haste, and because of its haste, there were no four Yi to congratulate and the kings to come to the dynasty, but it turned out to be a new beginning.

Fengtian Palace, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, was wearing a dragon robe, wearing a crown, sitting majestically on the throne, the princes and the country, the father and the military officials gathered, those old ministers saw Zhu Di sitting on the top, and there was an illusion in a trance, it seemed to ...... Thirty years ago, Emperor Hongwu, who had just expelled the Tatars and rebuilt China, returned.

At that time, Emperor Hongwu was also so old, also like this, so confident, and so vigorous, although there was a short break in the middle of the dynasty, but it seems that Emperor Yongle was the son of heaven who coerced Hongwu Yulie and opened a different era.

Mu En, who had been promoted to the rank of lieutenant eunuch, held the treasure seal with both hands, held it high above his head, and all the officials knelt down with a brush, shouting long live.

After accepting the congratulations of the hundred officials, Zhu Di opened his arms and said majestically: "All the kings are flat!" ”

Hundreds of officials knelt three times and bowed nine times, and after the big salute, they got up from the ground and stood in the class.

Zhu Di stood up slowly, his eyes swept over the faces of his father's military officials and ministers one by one, and said loudly: "I am light and virtuous, and I am embarrassed to take on a big responsibility. ”

Baiguan bowed again: "Long live!" ”

But Zhu Di and Zhu Yunwen are obviously two ways of playing, his Dengji ceremony does not have a lot of complicated fatherly courtesy, and the etiquette that makes people dizzy.

"Since I am the emperor now, I should seek the government of the Son of Heaven. Princes and ministers, civil and military officials, should work together to help me! If there is a traitor who is a traitor, who is unable to serve the king, and who is unable to serve the people, he will be punished according to the law, or if he has other aspirations, no matter what position he is in, I will severely punish him and never forgive him! ”

The old ministers and gods of Beiping, who were accustomed to Zhu Di's words, were standing there on the ground, and the officials in Beijing almost fainted when they heard Zhu Di's tone: "They have all become emperors, why are they still one by one, and I have to be amazed!" ”

However, Zhu Di, the emperor, is obviously not the same as Zhu Yunwen, and there are no Huang Zicheng and Fang Xiaoru next to him to teach him what "etiquette" is. Zhu Di thought that his father's words would bite his father and chew Yu, the bigger problem was that he was not on the point.

After Zhu Di finished, he waved his hand to another eunuch, the eunuch dog in the palace of King Yan, who was born and died with him, and fought a hundred battles, and the dog stood still under the imperial steps, and slowly unfolded Zhu Di's edict.

More importantly, he used the most concise and powerful language to tell how Emperor Jianwen was instigated by traitors to change the ancestral system, and how Emperor Yongle was forced to raise troops and restore the ancestral system today. These words must be said, because the implication of these words is that Emperor Yongle inherited the mantle of Emperor Taizu Hongwu, and he actually did not recognize the legitimacy of what Zhu Yunwen had done in the past four years.

This decree was made clear at the beginning, declaring that this year was the thirty-fifth year of Hongwu, and the following year was the first year of Yongle, that is, the reign of Jianwen in the fourth year was not recognized. Immediately afterwards, it was announced that all the decrees and systems of the founding emperor and Taizu Hongwu would be restored, and all the official names would be changed back to the old Hongwu system in accordance with the Zhou rites and the annexation of prefectures and counties.

This punch made everyone dizzy, and the edict was announced, and the hundred officials had just loosened. angry, I thought that today's ceremony was next to tell the ancestors to tell the heavens and the earth, a large set of red tape, and I didn't want the dog to hand over the edict to Mu En, followed by another holy decree.

This holy decree is the placement of personnel, and it is obviously the content that everyone is most concerned about, and the father and military officials immediately perked up and listened attentively.

The first is the placement of the funeral of Emperor Jianwen, the queen and the crown prince, and the funeral is held according to the ceremonial system of the emperor and the prince, which is not only a consolation for the old ministers of Jianwen, but also shows the generosity of the new emperor, but the attentive civil officials noticed that the Yongle Emperor did not give the Jianwen Emperor a nickname.

Immediately afterwards, it was the placement of the kings who had been impacted and rectified by Emperor Jianwen for four years.

Zhu Bai, the king of Xiang, Zhu Yunwen gave this uncle the nickname "戾." Zhu Di changed "戾" to "dedication." "Named the king of Hunan Xian. The tomb of the king of Xiang died because it was burned by an old family, and there were many palace slaves and maids who went to die with it, and they were all buried together, and a large tomb was built, and Zhu Di also announced that he would re-collect the bones and bury them solemnly, and because the king of Xiang had died, he specially appointed the ancestral officials to guard the ancestral hall.

Some of Jianwen's former ministers originally wanted to implore Zhu Di to give Emperor Jianwen a nickname, otherwise it would be too shabby to turn out to be a generation of emperors, and he didn't even have a nickname, but when he heard that Zhu Di was immediately placing Xiang Zhubai who was forced to die, he immediately shut up and didn't say anything. Compared with Zhu Yunwen's unkindness to the deceased, it seems that it is easy to accept not to give a nickname, if you want to give a nickname, Emperor Yongle will give a bad nickname.

After that, that is, the king of Zhou was reinstated, and he still returned to Kaifeng, the king of Qi and the king of Dai were also released from prison, and the king returned to the fiefdom, and the king of Ning rewarded him heavily, but did not ask him to return to Daning, but changed his title to Nanchang, Nanchang is much richer than the bitter cold land outside the Saiwai, and it is obviously much more comfortable to be a vassal king there than outside the Saiwai.

But there is one point, King Ning is outside the Saiwai, because of the proximity to Mongolia, in order to garrison the border, he can control 80,000 jingping, and when he arrives in Nanchang, except for the three guards and horses, he will not be able to have such a large military power.

Before the people could taste the taste, the main event came, and the kings and below, the reward and placement of the ministers began. First of all, it is natural to have the merits of the dragon of the Beiping department, the first person is Dongchang in the first battle to think that Zhu Di was besieged, bravely entered, so that he was trapped in the enemy camp exhausted and died in the general Zhang Yu, with it as the first hero of the Jingjing, posthumously presented to the British duke, Zhen Zhongxian, and crowned the king of Zhongwu in Hejian.

The second is the first to advocate Jingnan, four years to assist the prince to guard Beiping Master Daoyan, Daoyan master common name Yao Guangxiao, the official crown prince young master, Feng Rong Guogong; the third is Xu Zengshou, who was named the Duke of the Kingdom; the fourth is Qiu Fu, the Duke of Feng Qi; The fifth place is Zhu Neng, who is filled in as the Duke of Guo, and the sixth place is Yang Xu, who is the Duke of Fuguo. The above six national princes are Fengtianjing, it is difficult to push the sincerity of Xuanli, Wuchen, and the special entry of Ronglu doctor, the right pillar country, and the food Lu 2,500 stones, and the descendants are hereditary.

The first five are all known, but many people don't know who this Yang Xu is, and he has to be crowned hereditary prince, the ministers are inevitably surprised, and some people are even very unconvinced, although there is no whisper, so many officials are standing there, but some people feel a commotion when they move slightly. However, the officials of the Peiping department, especially the high-ranking officials of the Beiping department, looked calm and comfortable.

What credit does Yang Xu have? The imperial court secretly detained the king of Yan, Beiping commanded Zhang Xin to run to the king of Yan to report a letter, the seal was the prince of Xunguo, Yang Xu saved the life of the king of Yan before the martyrdom, after the martyrdom, in Jinling deliberately assassinated the failure, and saved the king of Yan again, and then saved the prince of the king of Yan and the two princes, the battle of Baigou River strategized, and the commander of Li Jinglong was cut off, so that the southern army was defeated in the victory, and then the city of Jinan warned, and then saved the life of the king of Yan, infiltrated the city of Nanjing to grasp confidential information, so that the king of Yan burned the grain and grass of ten thousand boats gathered in Pei County, and persuaded Chen Hui to surrender, So that the northern army has to have countless warships, cross the river freely, and decide the world in a war, such a merit is not enough to qualify for the title of the prince?

The people who can stand on this Jinluan Palace, all of them are human spirits, and it is natural to see the senior officials of the Beiping Department on their faces, although the others do not know the secrets, they no longer complain, but they just listen patiently, but after listening to the rewards of the officials of the Beiping Department, and then when they were sealed to the old ministers of Jianwen, the first one was actually Li Jinglong, the Duke of Cao Guo, and the ministers couldn't help but be in an uproar.

Really, this Li Jinglong's reputation is indeed not very good, although most of the old ministers of Jianwen look down on him, and the civil and military generals of the Beiping Department look down on him the same, such a good thing, he actually has to be crowned Zuo Zhuguo, the prince and the prince, Cao Guogong, Zenglu 1,000 stones, and the descendants are hereditary, is there still heavenly reason? Just because he opened the city gates?

This time the commotion was even bigger than hearing the news that Yang Xu Feng Guogong had made, because this time it was mainly the heroes of the Beiping Department who hinted at their dissatisfaction, Zhu Di sat on the dragon chair and smiled slightly, but he didn't really care.

Ru Chang, who was the first to advocate persuasion, also won a great reward, and Ru Chang was awarded the title of Fengtian Yiyun Shouzheng Father's Minister, Special Jin Ronglu Doctor, Zhuguo, Prince Shaobao, and the Secretary of the Military Department, Loyal Uncle, and a thousand stones.

Zhu Di rewarded them lavishly, naturally he has his own affairs, except that these people have always been the leaders of the Jianwen Dynasty's peace faction, and later burned the grain and grass in Pei County, had to open the Jinchuan Gate, and entered Jinling City with the most casualties, they also have their merits, and more importantly, these two people are the representatives of the old ministers of Jianwen and the courtiers.

Zhu Di actually didn't want to make a big move, he hoped that people's hearts could stabilize as soon as possible, and the court could stabilize as soon as possible. Governing such a big world, only the generals he brought from Beiping could not be done, the scene outside the Xiangyang Gate deeply moved him, whether it was a subordinate or an old minister of Jianwen who followed the flow to welcome the new lord, he hoped to give them a clear signal: as long as I support me, I will not blame the past, treat everyone equally, and I will never treat anyone badly.

Therefore, many heroes and veterans who fought the world with him were indignant, and Zhu Di sat on the top, so he had to see that he had never seen it.

This edict is sprinkled, and it takes the longest time to proclaim, and it is more relaxed than this edict, no matter what kind of thoughts the ministers have. angry, because the ceremony of welcoming the new monarch in the Golden Palace has finally ended. Unexpectedly, Zhu Di, like his son Zhu Yuanzhang, is also a workaholic, and the civil and military officials widened their eyes, and watched the Zhongguan Gou'er pick up the third edict: "......, Susong Sifu, restore Hongwu taxes." Floods and droughts in all directions shall be exempted from taxation, and those who have good years without disasters and barren land shall also be exempted from taxation. In all famine years, all the shells are exempted from two taxes, and the local government must first open a warehouse to help the people, and then report to the imperial court. The Metropolitan Procuratorate sent inspectors to inspect the premises, and those who concealed the disaster and did not report it, and those who did not provide relief to the disaster were to be punished by law. At the beginning of the new dynasty, the local government should especially appease the army and the people, and if there are traitors and greedy, they will be arrested and punished for serious crimes! Beijing officials more than seven products, foreign officials and county orders above, each of them will raise one person, and the amount will be promoted, if there is corruption, sit together! ”

Unexpectedly, on the day of Emperor Yongle's ascension to the throne, he announced a government edict, the focus of this edict is the rule of officials, that is, anti-corruption, and this edict was deliberately announced on the day of the enthronement, which is clearly Zhu Di's anti-corruption order.

Yongle Yuji, issued three major edicts, the first one, to overturn the old government of Jianwen, this is courage; the second way, the big seal of the old and new officials, this is Huairou; Third, the officials who were excited seemed to feel a little bit of the iron-blooded taste of Taizu when he was alive. Following Jianwen's "Four Years of Leniency and Frosting", officials whose hands and feet are not very clean seem to feel the sassy autumn ...... again,
