Chapter 170: The vassal king enters the capital
"The Governor spares his life"
"If the governor can spare me from dying, we are willing to cancel the name of the country and turn North Korea into a province of Daming......"
The monarchs and ministers of the Joseon Dynasty who knelt beside them began to beg for their lives.
Sun Chuanting's eyes lit up, and he felt that their suggestion was good:
"Oh, in that case, write down the edict and the proclamation at once, and this governor may report to the Holy Lord today."
"Commander Xie, we'll write it right away."
Seeing the tragic death of the Eastern captives, these Korean monarchs and ministers immediately got up to write an edict of abdication and withdrawal in order to save the lives of themselves and their families.
Sun Chuanting looked at them coldly, his eyes were full of contempt, these people actually sold the country directly in order to survive.
"Governor, please take a look, the edict has been written."
Soon, the king of Joseon respectfully handed the written edict of abdication of the state title to Sun Chuanting.
Sun Chuanting took the edict and the announcement, read it carefully, and nodded with satisfaction:
"Okay, this is something you took the initiative to put forward voluntarily, not that I forced you."
As soon as those Korean monarchs and ministers heard Sun Chuanting's words, they all began to scold their mothers in their hearts:
"It's not forcing us yet, if we don't, our heads will have to move soon."
Although he thought so in his heart, no one dared to say it, so he could only answer enthusiastically:
"Yes, please ask Emperor Ming for approval, we have no regrets."
The kings and nobles of the previous Joseon dynasty were all exterminated by the Eastern Exile, and there is no suitable person to inherit the throne at present.
It is also a good choice to cancel the name of North Korea and merge it into the territory of the Ming Dynasty.
Sun Chuanting put away the edict and immediately ordered:
"Come on, exile all their relatives and friends to the isolated island to be self-reliant, never leave the isolated island, if they find outlying the island or interact with outsiders, they will all be killed."
There are many isolated islands in North Korea, so just find a larger one.
When the Korean monarch heard this, he was reluctant and hurriedly began to bargain:
"Governor, you can't do this, it's no different from going to jail......
Sun Chuanting's eyes widened and he said angrily:
"It's good to be alive, but if you still want to live in the palace, tell you that you are not qualified to bargain with Pontus."
After Sun Chuanting finished speaking, he waved his hand below, and immediately a group of North Korean soldiers stepped forward to grab them and leave.
Li Dingguo stepped forward and asked:
"What's next for the Governor?"
Sun Chuanting looked at Lu Aiguo and said:
"This matter will wait for the Holy Lord's approval, and we will immediately set up an army, with Lu Aiguo as the main general, and lead these 6,000 horsemen and horsemen to garrison North Korea."
Lu Aiguo immediately gave Sun Chuanting a deep bow:
"Thank you for your attention, Lu Aiguo will definitely not disappoint you and Daming's expectations."
Li Dingguo clenched his fists and said:
"Commander, the last general thinks that urging Chengxiu can also be reused, and they are also loyal to my Daming."
"Well, yes, the herald appointed Ji Chengxiu as Lu Aiguo's deputy general to assist Lu Aiguo in managing North Korea."
"Yes"
After the appointment of the commander-in-chief of the garrison, the emperor also needs to decree a reward, and they are all temporary agents.
The DPRK has been pacified, and the next step is to rush to Shengjing to join the Central Route Army.
Sun Chuanting ordered a three-day rest and set off, during which time they worked out a new land and commercial tax system.
This system is implemented in accordance with the current system of the Ming Dynasty.
North Korea has been a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty for many years and has a high degree of recognition of the Ming Dynasty.
The aristocracy was driven to the island, and the people were very supportive of the reform, but there was no voice of resistance.
They are also very grateful to the Ming for their help, allowing them to change from slaves to normal people from the Eastern Tartars, and also have their own land.
The Korean rebel army was officially incorporated into the Ming army, and they were not only Ming nationals, but also became the defenders of the Ming Dynasty.
They also closed their mouths happily, and secretly swore allegiance to Daming.
Capital
Above the court, the ministers of civil and military affairs all found that today's court meeting was different from the past.
A group of people who had never appeared in the court before, all stood on top of the court today.
They were the vassal kings who had come from all over the world, and although many of them had died, there were still twenty-five of them.
The reform of the Ming Dynasty seriously violated their interests and made them all angry.
Also as a descendant of the old Zhu family, why did Chongzhen not only become emperors, but also began to cut them down.
If one or two vassal kings were touched, they would not dare to say anything publicly.
However, all the vassal kings were not spared, which provided them with an opportunity to unite against Chongzhen.
I had long wanted to reason with the Ming Emperor, but without the emperor's summons, they didn't dare to enter Beijing at all.
After receiving the emperor's holy decree, they were all overjoyed and immediately set off for Beijing.
Yue Fei wiped out the five tribes of Mengyuan in a row, and the Korean Eastern Capture Tartars were also killed.
Zhu Youzhen was in a good mood today, and accompanied by Ah Qing and Qinglong, he slowly walked into the Taihe Palace.
Seeing the emperor going to court, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty and the vassal kings who entered Beijing, they all came forward to pay respects:
"See the emperor, long live my emperor, long live!"
Zhu Youzhen glanced at the ministers and vassal kings, and said with a slight smile:
"All the lovers are free of courtesy"
"Thank you, Lord Longen, long live my emperor!"
After the ministers were flat, no one spoke for a long time, and Zhu Youzhen opened his mouth and said:
"Our Ming army has recovered Korea, and Mongolia is also retreating.
The Middle Route Army not only annihilated the traitor Kong Youde, but also captured the traitor Geng Zhongming alive.
How is the land reform and commercial tax collection carried out by the Cabinet, don't you have a plan? ”
Seeing the emperor's questioning, Ni Yuanlu, the head of the household department, and Li Banghua, the first assistant of the cabinet, hurriedly went out to give gifts:
"Back to the emperor, the land reform and the collection of commercial taxes have basically not encountered much hindrance in other places, but we really can't carry out it with the vassal kings, and we ask the emperor to decide."
When Li Banghua and Ni Yuanlu spoke, those vassal kings looked indifferent, and they had to ask the emperor for an explanation later!
"Smack......
Zhu Youzhen slapped the dragon book case and said sharply:
"Li Banghua Ni Yuanlu, as my Ming cabinet, you eat my Ming Dynasty's Yulu, are you specially serving the vassal kings?
I have already made a will, all those who obstruct the reform of the Ming Dynasty, no matter what their status, will be treated equally, what do you do, are you all ready to go home to retire? ”
"The emperor forgives sins, but it is the incompetence of the ministers......"
Seeing Zhu Youzhen angry, Li Banghua and Ni Yuanlu suddenly trembled with fright, and knelt directly on top of the Golden Palace.
Now the emperor is killing people without blinking, and the whole family will receive Zhulian.
In fact, Zhu Youzhen is killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys, and his purpose is to see the reaction of those vassal kings.
These people are not stupid, of course they can hear the emperor's words, but they don't care.
Most of their family property is left by their ancestors, and the Zhu family also has a part of them.
But they didn't think that not only did they not make a little contribution to the Ming Dynasty, but they were a great burden to the Ming Dynasty.
Not only does it have the best land, but it also occupies a lot of fertile land and shops, and now it forcibly prevents the reform of the Ming Dynasty.
They didn't expect that what was waiting for them would be the thunderous fury of the Ming Emperor.
