Chapter 243: Imperial Pen (Asking for Support, Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Lanzhou Kefu!
Suzhou Kefu ......
Jiannu fled without a fight, and escaped thousands of miles away from Jiayu Pass!
With the news coming one after another, as the Ming army continued to play triumphant songs on the distant northwest battlefield, especially when the news of "Suzhou Kefu" came, the entire Ming Dynasty immediately boiled.
Suzhou Kefu!
Suzhou!
It was the northwestern city of the Ming Dynasty, and the restoration of Suzhou also meant that the Manchu Tartars were completely driven out of the Ming Dynasty!
From then on, the Manchu Tartars were no longer seen in the land of the Ming Dynasty!
From the imperial palace to the cabinet, to the five military governors and even the local government offices, until the ordinary people, the entire Ming Dynasty went from south to north, from the northernmost Heishui Governor's Mansion, to Nantianmen, to Pingnan. Everywhere was immersed in cheers, where people were celebrating, celebrating Suzhou's recovery, and celebrating this victory.
And the newspapers of the Ming Dynasty, whether they are government-run or private-run, are constantly repeating a voice in the following days - long live the emperor! Long live the Ming Army!
The Emperor is a saint! That's why we can prosper the Ming Dynasty and drive the Tartars out of China.
As for the Ming army, those who were brave and good at fighting at that time drove the Tartars out because of their selfless fighting.
In this kind of victory, people's blood boiled, and a kind of admiration for the soldiers also floated up, floating in the sky above the Ming Dynasty, and permeating the entire Ming Dynasty.
This summer, the Ming Dynasty is boiling, a kind of martial soul that has been lost for hundreds of years, with the rapid victory of the war, the Ming people in the world are all enthusiastic, when they look at the soldiers, they no longer regard them as Qiu Ba, but as pride.
This trend was reflected in the newspapers, and in the articles admiring soldiers and generals in the newspapers, Zhu Mingzhong, as the emperor, also noticed this strange trend of thought. He was naturally very happy about the emergence of this trend of thought, and for him in the 21st century, he was naturally well aware of how important this atmosphere of admiring the military was to rebuild the martial style of the Han people.
"I should write an article!"
After putting down the newspaper, Zhu Mingzhong also seemed a little excited, and after thinking for a while, he picked up the brush on the table and wrote with a wave.
However, it only took ten minutes, and the article was completed in one go, and after writing the article, Zhu Mingzhong said to Ning Yunting on the side.
"Ning Siji, send this article to the newspaper......"
After thinking for a moment, Zhu Mingzhong wrote three words in the name of the article. Then he instructed Ning Yunting again.
"Hmm...... Copy another copy and send a copy to the Gazette. Sent from the Palace Post Office. ”
When the words came to his mouth, Zhu Mingzhong still changed his words again.
"I'll copy it myself! Since you want to send it, send it yourself! ”
After copying this article, Zhu Mingzhong couldn't help but have a thought in his heart: Once this article is published in "Ming Pao" and "Gongyi Daily", what kind of sensation will it cause at that time?
Whether it is "Ming Pao" or "Gongyi Bao", they are the most influential newspapers in the Ming Dynasty, even if the article has not yet been published, he believes that the author of the article alone is enough to cause a sensation, not to mention, the article itself will cause a sensation, and it may also cause controversy.
Thinking of the possible controversy, the corners of Zhu Mingzhong's lips raised slightly, and he said to himself.
"Let's just let the storm come harder!"
Controversy!
Zhu Mingzhong is not afraid of controversy, and even in his opinion, only controversy will make this storm more fierce and make people's martial hearts even hotter, and only in this way can it be possible to fundamentally reverse the minds of the Chinese people who value literature over military force!
"...... that should send Speedpost"
Thinking of the sensation after the article was published, Zhu Mingzhong couldn't help but look forward to it, and at the same time regretted it, because he forgot to tell Ning Yunting to send her an express mail, but only sent a five-penny surface mail. Even if it is local mail, it will take two days to send it out at the post office.
Post office, which is the institution established in the first year of Xingqian, for thousands of years, the Central Plains Dynasty has always set up a post station, the post station is responsible for providing transportation and personnel accommodation, and another person is responsible for delivering official documents. In the Jiangbei period, it was merged into one, and the post station changed from an indirect service for the transmission of official documents to an institution that directly handled communication affairs. And began to get involved in the civil transmission of letters. Started to compete with the Minxin Bureau in Jiangnan and other places, and for the purpose of profit, its business not only delivered letters, but also involved sending parcels, exchange, cash escorts, and even transporting newspapers. After the first year of Xingqian, the official letter bureau in Jiangbei took over the post station of the whole country, in the process of renovating the official road and reforming the post station, Zhu Mingzhong drew on the experience of later generations to set up the post office, and issued stamps, the post office as a profit-making organization, naturally attaches great importance to business reputation, thoughtful service, simple procedures, flexible operation, and now the post office has replaced the civil signal in Daming to become the main institution of non-governmental correspondence.
Like any newspaper, there is a letter box at the door of the newspaper, and there is even a special person in charge of the letters—Wang Song, who is an apprentice at the Ming Pao newspaper, in addition to dropping off the reporters, one of his duties is to be responsible for sorting out the letters, and he will not even wait for the porter to ring the brass bell to remind him that he will see from the window whether the postman in his area is coming. If he saw the postman's green uniform from afar—because there weren't many people wearing green on the street, so he could see it from a long distance—he would rush downstairs and run to the door, and when the postman delivered the letter, he would take it as soon as he couriered it, and then take it upstairs to divide it, and then give it to the newspaper reporters and editors, and so on every day.
The newspaper has always been a big customer of the post office, because it receives hundreds, if not more, letters from readers every day, so its letters are delivered as soon as possible. As in the past, after seeing the postman, Wang Song immediately rushed down and took the parcel from the postman's hand.
Then, Wang Song returned to the second floor, neatly arranging the letters at the simple table in the corner of the second floor, and his task was simple, to separate the letters.
"The ...... of Li Chuanming and Zhang Du"
At the same time, the letters sent to the newspaper are separated one by one, and if they are submitted, they will often write the words "Ming Pao is submitted to the editor", and if they are readers, they will write "Respectfully submit to Ming Pao", anyway, it is probably the case, everyone will use some honorifics, which is etiquette and etiquette.
"Huh? It's ......"
Just when the letter was classified, Wang Song couldn't help but be stunned when he saw one of the letters, the letter was an ordinary envelope, with a five-text stamp on it, there was nothing new, but the envelope was written "Ming Pao received".
"Didn't use honorifics? This man is so rude, he doesn't even have the most basic courtesy......"
Muttering like this, Wang Song directly tore the letter open, he needed to read the contents, and then he could decide who to hand the letter to, which was his duty.
After tearing open the envelope, Wang Song was immediately attracted by the content of the letter, which was a text advocating military personnel, and the article was not long.
"I don't even know the minimum number of courtesies, but I still want to contribute......"
muttered like this, and when Wang Song finally saw the genus name at the end of the letter, he was stunned.
Zhu Cijiong ...... The name sounds familiar......"
"Xiao Song, what are you talking about, what Zhu Cijiong ......"
Chen Yuren, who was sitting at another table not far from him, only felt a little familiar at first when he heard his words, so he asked.
However, the name does sound familiar.
"Zhu Cijiong, Mr. Chen, have you ever heard of this name? This person sent an article......"
"It sounds familiar, it seems to be ...... Ah......h
Suddenly, Chen Yuren stood up violently as if he had been pierced by something, stared at Wang Song with wide eyes and said.
"You, what do you say...... Zhu, Zhu ......"
Then Chen Yuren didn't even dare to say that name anymore, and he asked urgently.
"Where is the letter?"
After receiving the letter, seeing the signature at the end of the letter, Chen Yuren believed that this article was likely to be His Majesty's imperial pen, after all, no one in the world dared to use His Majesty's same name, or fraudulently use the name "Zhu Cijiong", which is very disrespectful.
"Where is the envelope?"
After picking up the envelope again and reading the postmark on it, Chen Yuren no longer had any doubts. He looked at the article and said with a slight tremor on the corner of his lips.
"This, this is His Majesty's imperial pen, fast, fast, what about the editor-in-chief? What about the editor-in-chief? ……”
But it was only a short time before the news of the article of His Majesty's royal pen was sent to the newspaper office, and while the newspaper office of Ming Pao was amazed at it, the people in the newspaper office of the Gong Yi Bao were equally surprised by the letter sent by the postman.
On this day, the Ming Pao and Gongyi Pao, which received the letter from the palace post office, were the most influential newspapers in the Ming Dynasty, although their positions were different, and like the Ming Pao, they were also surprised by the text of the article when they received the letter from the palace.
"Respect Qiu Ba like this, how to convince the world!"
Wu Weiye looked at the emperor's imperial pen, his voice was a little excited, although he could never investigate the cause of his father's death, but it did not prevent him from being hostile to the emperor himself. Although this hostility has faded a lot now, his subconscious resistance makes him look down on many of the emperor's behaviors.
"It's not, it's just a group of barbarians, but it's worthy of such respect, it's actually compared to the Yangtze River, compared to Taiyue......"
Qian Sunai couldn't help but express her dissatisfaction with the article.
"We and other people in Shilin still don't dare to call themselves the mainstay, dare not compare the rivers, compare the Taiyue, and now they actually compare those ordinary Qiu Ba with this, it is really, it is really ...... Ridiculous! ”
Compared with Wu Weiye's resistance, Qian Sunai showed more dissatisfaction, dissatisfaction with His Majesty's emphasis on military force and light on literature. Of course, all the dissatisfaction now is due to the extreme admiration of the military in this article.
Of course, he is not the only one who is unacceptable, and even compared to the unacceptable, they are even more annoyed by His Majesty's "favoritism", after all, the former Shilin has become fragmented under the suppression of His Majesty over the years. I don't know how many Shilin Yingjie were forced to go away to Nanyang, I don't know how many Shilin Yingxian hid in the countryside, the so-called Shilin has become a thing of the past, and now those scholars have faintly replaced the old Shilin, all of them are based on "bachelors" and think they are proud.
The reality of "emphasizing reality and suppressing literature" itself made them quite dissatisfied, and now that even the Qiu Ba, whom they despised the most, rode on their heads, they naturally became a little indignant.
"But isn't this the truth, throughout the ages, only to take over the world with a horse, and how can there ever be a horse to control the world, Your Majesty will compare Qiu Bashi to the rivers and rivers Taiyue, Lone Pine Hanyue, so, how can the people of the world be convinced!"
Wang Shuren's tone was equally indignant.
What kind of person can be called the river Taiyue, the lone pine and the cold moon...... How many virtuous people have been able to wear these words throughout the ages, and there are not many people, but now in the mouth of His Majesty, those barbarians can wear them, how can this not annoy others.
"Our soldiers have been cold for decades, but they can't compare to that barbarian, Your Majesty admires martial artists so much, aren't you afraid of the cold hearts of the world?"
"Afraid? What has Your Majesty feared? ”
Wang Shuren smiled coldly, and then said.
"Since Your Majesty ascended the throne, how many things have you done that you have been afraid of others? How many have you ever cared about others? ”
Wang Shuren's words made everyone stunned, and they immediately thought of the words that were widely circulated in the Ming Dynasty, "Under the great tomorrow, I am the only one!" ”。
This sentence is the words of His Majesty to the subjects of the world, and it is also to tell them that in this great tomorrow, everything is ruled by him, as for the others...... Just like the abolition of the imperial examination back then, how boiling is the voice of opposition from the bottom of the world today, how can he ever care about the slightest public opinion?
Public opinion!
As far as His Majesty is concerned, it is not within the scope of his consideration at all, and even in terms of manipulating public opinion, His Majesty is far superior to others.
Even in recent years, social studies and so on have been run in order to control public opinion - the people can read the newspaper if they are literate, and they can know the original intention of the government decree by reading the newspaper, so that the public opinion cannot be controlled by the local gentry, even now the local gentry have also run a newspaper, just like these Qingliu scholars have also run the "Gongyi Bao" to supervise the government, but in terms of the prestige of the newspaper, there are a few that can compare with the "Ming Pao".
"I didn't scruple in the past, but now it's just right!"
Suddenly, Wang Shuren looked at the article in His Majesty's handwritten letter and sneered.
"The more you have no scruples, the more arrogant you will be, now Your Majesty has so much respect for those Qiu Ba barbarians, but it couldn't be better, in the past, we were soft-spoken, and now, there are millions of people in the world who read books, and Your Majesty doesn't care about the feelings of scholars like this, isn't it just right!"
Tapping his fingers on the table, Wang Shuren's eyes narrowed and he sneered.
"This time, let's send this article to the whole country, so that everyone in the world knows how much Your Majesty "worships literature and suppresses martial arts", and let the people of the world see how to rule the world on horseback......
