Unlike the return of Yehhauran, this time a full 500 Janissaries and 500 New Army soldiers returned from the front and were arranged to participate in the parade of prisoners at the Taimiao. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThis is also the first military parade celebration since Zhu Mu ascended the throne, although the scale is not large, but the emperor himself is still quite fresh.

After all, in the past, even on the National Day military parade, he could only sit on the emperor's side as a prince and watch the excitement as soldiers pass under the city gate. This time, he was able to preside over the celebration in person, and here he could review all the meritorious soldiers who wore the commemorative medals of the Liaodong military operation.

Moreover, this time the sacrifice of prisoners is extraordinary, you must know that since the death of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, the quality of the Taimiao prisoner sacrifice activity has not been as good as once. As this time, it was more than a hundred years ago that the true leader of the enemy army was captured and escorted to show off in front of the tablets of the ancestors and ancestors.

Therefore, the civil and military officials were arranged on both sides of the temple early, standing quietly waiting for the start of the celebration, and behind them, there were a full 1,000 Ming soldiers who returned from the battlefield in Liaodong. These soldiers fought all the way from Panjin City to Fengtian, and from Fengtian City, all the way to Jilin.

The ceremony of offering prisoners in this temple has undergone many modifications, adding many modern items and cutting down a lot of torturous red tape. But on the whole, the whole process is still very boring and boring, full of content that makes Zhu Mu himself disgusted.

If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to use such a ceremony to sacrifice prisoners in the Taimiao Temple to build momentum for his father, that is, Zhu Changle, who had lost Fengtian, to change his nickname, he would not have bothered to waste his time on such a trivial matter of boasting about his merits. He prefers to find time to do something meaningful, such as going to the front lines to inspect his invincible army.

"The bandit disaster of the Jianzhou Jurchens gradually started in the Wanli period, and they committed rebellion against officials and officials. The head of the self-proclaimed Nurhachi, when he was a child, he was a slave of Li Chengliang's family on the border, and he did not want to make progress to serve the master of the country's family, but he betrayed the thief heart of the rebellion! Treason with thirteen pairs of armor without self-determination, and even took advantage of the ignorance of our empire to occupy Jianzhou and other places and claim to be kings in vain. "But it's a pity that the emperor's thoughts sitting on the chair are unknown to the officials of the Imperial Ministry of Rites, and the wine sacrifice official is holding the speech and reading out the speech that has been revised for five days in the most solemn and steady voice in front of the microphone.

"To the Emperor of the Apocalypse Zhongxing years, the chaos in Jianzhou has been out of control, thanks to my Emperor of the Apocalypse to revitalize the people, clean up the country, with the power of the Son of Heaven to help the people, and lead hundreds of thousands of Chinese soldiers to sweep Xiaoxiao, and clarify the United States! Ten years after ascending the throne, the chaos in Jianzhou began to subside, and the old chief Nurhachi conferred the first ...... "The official presided over the prisoner sacrifice ceremony in a serious manner, and read his speech endlessly, starting from the Wanli period, so that Zhu Mu almost lost the patience to listen.

Do you have to take out these old sesame rotten grains and dry them? During the eleventh year of Wanli, until the forty-third year of Wanli, the Ming Empire sat back and watched Nurhachi develop and grow itself, raising a man-devouring tiger that almost caused trouble. If it weren't for the Emperor of the Apocalypse who turned things around, Nurhachi, who was already rampant outside the customs at that time, might have been a steel nail that buried the Ming Empire.

"And then...... The Jurchen tribes of Jianzhou were afraid of power but not gratitude, and when our Ming Empire was advancing westward and competing with the heroes of the world, they had evil intentions again and continued to cause trouble in Liaodong, so that the local people were not able to make a living, and the people who originally belonged to my Ming Dynasty were miserable. Its chieftains, Ye He and Jue Luo, are the same raccoon dogs, both of them are ......" The minister on that side said three whole paragraphs, and there was no mention of the victory in the Liaodong War, which made Zhu Mu yawn.

"Your Majesty, be cautious." Standing beside Emperor Zhu Mu was Chen Yue, the commander of Dongchang, who heard the sound of Emperor Zhu Mu yawning, bowed behind Zhu Mu and put it to his ear, reminding him softly.

"I forgot to let the people from the Ministry of Rites say a few words...... Wouldn't such a lengthy memoir be read until the afternoon? This is just a prisoner sacrifice, and I am so excited, and when I arrange him to preside over this kind of every day in the future, I see that he still makes up such a long draft? Zhu Mu looked at the old sacrificial wine in charge of presiding over the Taimiao prisoners in the distance with dissatisfaction, and muttered.

"Hehe......" Chen Yue was also amused by Zhu Mu's words, he continued to bend over, and teased Zhu Mu's ear: "Your Majesty, don't be unconvinced, even if you let them write such a long manuscript every day, they will definitely be able to play tricks on their own, and they will be the sacrificial wine in the Ministry of Rites, which one is not a rich five-car?" ”

"I can't wait to use one day as two days now, how can I have time to listen to their articles here? Next time I sacrifice prisoners, I'd better let the cabinet ministers attend for me...... It's a sin. After Zhu Mu finished speaking, he closed his mouth, and Chen Yue also stood up straight, continuing to make a harmless expression.

What made Zhu Mu feel very boring, in addition to the lengthy sacrificial articles of the officials of the Ministry of Rites, there was also a suggestion made to him by a large group of ministers yesterday that made him a little overwhelmed: Cabinet ministers Ma Siyuan and Huang Yao took the lead and actually persuaded Zhu Mu to get married......

This incident can give Zhu Mu a headache, because he feels that he is not ready to get married at present. And what's worse is that he was busy with government affairs all day, and he didn't know any of those girls - for this, the suggestions of the ministers made him even more annoyed, from the first assistant Wang Jianfeng to the smallest official who could go to the court, they all agreed that His Majesty's wedding was enough as long as it was in political interest.

However, Zhu Mu personally believes that he should make his own decisions about his marriage, and at least he should find a girl who satisfies him, so that he can willingly marry home and be his wife. Although the Ming Empire has never restricted a man to marry only one woman, the monogamy system is really a clear provision of the law, and choosing a wife is still a very cautious thing for men in the Ming Dynasty who are not short of women.

Yesterday, Zhu Mu used "Liaodong's affairs are not over, and I should not consider family affairs" as a reason to refute this suggestion. However, he knew that this postponement was not a long-term solution, and the ministers would definitely use this matter to repeatedly criticize him and put pressure on him with this matter--if he really married a queen casually, wouldn't he continue to marry all kinds of concubines at will, and let the ministers arrange all kinds of "fathers-in-law" for themselves?

In order to prevent relatives from interfering in court politics after the royal family married, the Ming Dynasty generally chose a woman with ordinary status as the emperor's concubine. But as time passed, this line of defense has long been broken by officials. Generally speaking, the ministers who recommend show girls to become queens or concubines have a close relationship with these relatives and families, and they can also send women who meet their interests into the emperor's harem through a similar form of choosing spokespeople.

As for what to say gentle and graceful, dignified and beautiful, it is nothing more than the last fig leaf in the description. Otherwise, the emperor would not have wanted to cause harm as soon as he left the palace, or he would have thought about it when he saw a palace maid in the palace - it was really because those women in his backyard could not only intrigue but also connect with the court, and he really couldn't expect too much in appearance.

Of course, maybe there are many women with sweet facial features and pleasant appearances, and first-class singing and dancing figures, but after all, Zhu Mu hasn't seen it yet, right? He is also a young man of twenty years old, and naturally he also has his own longing for the opposite sex, but when the ministers stirred it up like this, the original haze turned into a resolute resistance.

Do you say that these ministers have nothing else to do on weekdays except to try their best to pit me, the emperor? Wouldn't it be good to study and study the economic situation, draw up more accurate financial statements, and catch the moths of corruption? Thinking of this, Zhu Mu's mind was full of boredom and not doing business.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his best friend Wang Jue was more in line with the appearance of a minister: he would not ask about Zhu Mu's private affairs, and he could use his wisdom and his own ability to do a good job of the things Zhu Mu handed over to him - this is what a qualified minister should do!

Thinking of this, Zhu Mu followed his thoughts and remembered the description and experimental report about the container that Wang Jue personally sent two days ago. After he read it once, he knew that this thing was very important, and it was definitely a force multiplier that his army could run amok in the world.

Look at Wang Jue, look at Chen Zhaoming! The things sent by people are really useful and important things that can solve the actual problems of the Ming Empire! Look at these ministers in front of you, what do you think about every day? The emperor got married, formed a party and ran a private business!

"My Ming Empire is now in command of millions of elite soldiers, won a battle, calmed down the judgment, captured the bandit leader Ye He's name Hao Lian, and captured the rest of the traitor Ye He Haolan and other thirty-three people......" The priest over there is still reciting the manuscript in his hand, highlighting the greatness of the Ming Empire's victory this time.

Zhu Mu finally came out of his thoughts, and saw that the speech had already talked about Ye He Haolian, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he stared with great interest at the "prisoner carts" that were decorated with sedan chairs, and looked at the faces that had given his father a headache. After a long while, he smiled, laughing very presumptuously and heartily, he finally helped his father to find the field, and the rest of the days were the time to realize his ambition......
