Chapter 347: The Sun and the Moon Rise Shine in All Directions (Part II)
"Prime Minister Wen Tianxiang on the left, Prime Minister Su Liuyi on the right, and Lu Xiufu, Governor of Political Affairs." Standing beside Ye Yingwu, Liang Yanwu read loudly with a glance, "Chen Zongli, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Jiang Wanzai, the left waiter of the Ministry of Rites, Ye Yingji, the right waiter of the Ministry of Rites, Xie Fangde, the left waiter of the Ministry of Households, Li Si, the right waiter of the Ministry of Households, Jiang Duo, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, Wang Lixin, the left waiter of the Ministry of Officials, Li Si, the secretary of the Ministry of Justice, Zhang Shijie, the left waiter of the Ministry of War, Liu Shiyong, the right waiter of the Ministry of War, Zhang Gui, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Zhang Jian, the left waiter of the Ministry of Industry, Guo Shoujing, and the right waiter Chen Yuanliang of the Ministry of Industry. β
The black and red four-clawed golden dragon python robe was draped over his body, and Ye Yingwu's eyes were blazing, looking at the figures that slowly stood up on the main hall one after another.
This hall is a temporary renovation of the palace of the Song Gaozong period, not to mention the low eaves, so many civil and military ministers standing on the palace, it is already very crowded. Although it is impossible for Daming's palace city to be so shabby, Ye Yingwu can only endure it first.
After all, the design and planning of the new palace has already begun, but it will take time to avoid building it into a tofu slag project.
"Your Majesty, Your Highness." Wen Tianxiang bowed to Ye Yingwu and walked back.
One after another civil and military officials came out one after another, and when Wang Yao, the secretary of the ministry, stood up, Ye Yingwu was silent for a moment, and finally quietly watched Wang Yao come forward and bow respectfully. For Ye Yingwu, the founding of the new dynasty was established, and it was the time when a hundred wastes were waiting to be rebuilt, although Ye Yingwu knew very well that in fact, his uncles who had fought side by side were still interested in the old dynasty, but after all, Wang Lixin and Guo Shoujing were both young and first ascended to high positions, and Wang Lixin still had to sit in Lin'an, Guo Shoujing was busy planning Jiankang Mansion, and he couldn't get out of his body for a while, so it was helpless to let the two old men come out at this time.
"Let's keep reading." Ye Yingwu said in a deep voice.
Liang Yanwu at the bottom of the stairs nodded, and then read aloud: "Dazong Zhengye Mengding." β
The entire hall was suddenly silent and silent for a few minutes, and everyone's eyes were on the old man standing in front of Wen Tianxiang. Ye Mengding, who was nearly seventy years old, had a smile on the corner of his mouth, and the crutches in his hand struck the ground with a crisp sound.
And finally couldn't hold it back, Ye Yingwu slowly stood up, walked down the steps quickly, and before Ye Mengding could bow down, he had already stretched out his hand to support him: "Daddy, you don't need to be like this, please get up quickly." β
Ye Mengding had just arrived at Jiankang Mansion in the morning, so he came to this noon court meeting, so it was the first time Ye Yingwu saw his father after becoming king.
"Having come to this point, I don't know if my father should scold you for being a rebel, or thank you for being a glorious lintel." Ye Mengding's voice was very low, and he was standing at the front, so only Ye Yingwu could hear it clearly.
His heart shook slightly, Ye Yingwu just gently helped Ye Mengding up, for Ye Mengding, in fact, it was impossible for Ye Yingwu to say that he did not feel guilty, after all, Ye Mengding had always wanted Ye Yingwu to support the society and protect the Zhao family, but he didn't want to let this stinky boy kick away the official family and establish himself as the king. However, he has come to this point, and the Ye family has become a brand-new royal family, and there is no room for Ye Mengding to have more opposition.
Ye Mengding did not resist Ye Yingwu's support, even though he was already old, his hands and feet were still sharp, and after taking a deep look at Ye Yingwu, he slowly retreated.
Secretly sighed in his heart, Ye Yingwu knew that the position of Dazongzheng was the best compensation he could give his father, and it was also the best choice for his elderly father. And in fact, this also has Ye Yingwu's selfishness in it, after all, Ye Mengding, as a great sect, is naturally responsible for dealing with the former Song royal family, which actually means that Ye Yingwu still forgave the former Song royal family in the end.
After all, at least when Ye Mengding is here, he can still protect one or two, and others will naturally not show mercy to these remnants of the previous dynasty.
Seeing Ye Mengding standing there bowing his head and not saying a word, Ye Yingwu didn't say much, just waved his sleeves and walked back to the chair on the steps, but he stood straight and didn't sit down, and his eyes became cold and deep, making all the civil and military officers subconsciously hold their breath.
They didn't know what Ye Mengding and Ye Yingwu had just said, but looking at Ye Yingwu's obviously gloomy and cold face, they naturally knew that the envoy and this "Emperor Taishang" must be a little unhappy, and Ye Mengding was the well-known minister of the Great Song Dynasty.
After all, the dynasty he was loyal to was buried by his son, and his son personally established a new dynasty with his own family as the royal family, which is probably the same difficult choice for anyone. Even if there is more dissatisfaction in his heart, Ye Mengding has to obey the voice of the government and the opposition, and he has to consider the unity and future of the Ye family, so he has to stand in this place.
And the displeasure on Ye Yingwu's face was not concealed in the slightest, which surprised everyone's hearts.
His Royal Highness King Ming is telling everyone that his heart to be the king and hegemon has been placed here, and there is no need for you to speculate. And even if his own father is dissatisfied with this and has doubts, His Royal Highness King Ming can show displeasure on his face, not to mention those of you who are not related by blood.
Now in front of these civil and military forces, there is only one way to choose.
Follow Ye Yingwu, follow this Daming, and go one way to the dark.
Success or defeat is no longer something that these civil and military officials can decide for themselves.
Jiang Wanzai, Wang Yao and the others looked at Ye Mengding who was speechless with some concern, and everyone had mixed feelings in their hearts. They are old ministers of the former dynasty, and they are standing in this place again today, firstly, because Ye Yingwu inherited the mantle of the Great Song Dynasty and is still a descendant of Huaxia, so although the Great Song Dynasty is dead, Huaxia is still Huaxia, and Daming is just an existence that does not change the soup but not the medicine, and it is not unjustifiable in terms of morality and conscience; Second, the Jiang family and the Wang family are the founding heroes of the Ming Dynasty, and they are also the earliest families from the dragon, no matter how Ye Yingwu is, he will never forget their glory and wealth.
Standing in the interests of the family, Wang Yao and the others had to stand on top of this hall.
And at this moment today, when Ye Yingwu expressed his heart unabashedly, Wang Yao and the others suddenly realized that they were not only standing in the palace of a new dynasty, but also unconsciously changed from the elder uncle who supported and helped Ye Yingwu at the beginning, to a firmly inseparable part of this chariot, and became a person who advanced and retreated with Ye Yingwu.
In fact, this is also a nice thing to say, and the ugly thing is that these elders are no longer just elders and uncles from now on, and there is another relationship on their heads that they have to look up to-monarchs and ministers. Even if they and Ye Mengding are brothers, when they see Ye Yingwu, they should already salute, and they should put the etiquette of the monarch and the minister first.
A wry smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, Wang Jian subconsciously looked at Zhang Jian next to him, but Zhang Jian squinted, looked at it with a smile, and then turned back.
Wang Jian suddenly sighed secretly, Zhang Jian is clearly determined to go to the dark with Ye Yingwu, this old guy is not old and confused after all, since he is here now, since he has been difficult to ride a tiger, then simply close his eyes and move forward.
Regardless of whether this Ming future is really bright and shining, or whether the north and the south are separated and sunk, let him go. Originally, the remaining life span was not long, and when he competed with Jia Yidao in the court, he was no longer afraid of life and death, let alone now.
Looking around cautiously, Wang Yao found that most of the officials had their faces as usual, and immediately understood that Ye Yingwu was clearly showing them these old people, and his heart was simply calming down at the moment, whether it was ups and downs or inaction in his life, there was not much time left, it was better to use the spare strength of this old bone to do more things for the younger generations and do more things for the people, which was good after all.
Ye Yingwu waved his hand lightly, and Liang Yanwu hurriedly continued in a low voice: "The Imperial History Observatory supervises the Imperial History Jiang Wanli, the left capital Imperial History Chen Yizhong, and the right capital Imperial Envoy Yao Zhi." β
Jiang Wanli is still in the Nankang Army, and only Chen Yizhong and Yao Zhi came out to receive the order of thanks, but no one dares to underestimate these two imperial history, one is that the hundred officials know the origin of these two, one is to work with Ye Yingwu to overthrow Jia Yidao and even overthrow the entire Lord of the Great Song Dynasty, and the other is also a heroic figure who rose up to respond to Ye Yingwu when his safety was in danger.
And more importantly, don't look at Chen Yizhong's original supervision of the imperial history, but now it seems that he has been demoted, but everyone knows that Jiang Wanli is old, and he has rarely asked about the world since he returned to the Nankang Army, so he just hangs a nominal supervision of the imperial history, and the imperial history platform is still in the hands of Chen Yizhong and Yao Zhi, and the current imperial history platform is very different from the puppet in the hands of Jia Yidao before. It's just three or four levels down, and everyone wants to squeeze up when they break their heads.
And Ye Yingwu's arrangement has to be said to be ingenious, Chen Yizhong is witty and changeable, and Yao Zhi is the most upright and steady, the two cooperate with each other, this Yushitai will definitely not be an existence that can be underestimated in the future.
"Liu Chenweng, a scholar of Hallym Academy, Deng Guangjian, a scholar of the Academy of Sciences"
Originally, Liu Chenweng and Deng Guangjian were in charge of the education of the entire Tianwu military system, although for them it was from a few state capitals to the whole world, but after all, they were still the old business, and they also knew that Ye Yingwu had no one available on it, and these two scholars must be left for themselves, so they all calmly came out to receive the order.
"The general of the expedition to the north, the commander of the four compartments of the Tianwu army, Jiang Hao; General Zhenbei, leading the Tianwu Army to wait for Yin Yu. Liang Yanwu then read aloud, Jiang Hao and Yin Yu below have already been ordered, "General Long Xiang, Yang Bao, the commander of the four compartments of the Divine Guard; General Yingyang, leading the four compartments of the Divine Guard, are waiting for Bian Juyi. β
The Divine Guard Army was originally used by Ye Yingwu to guard Xiangyang, the original foundation place, and now that it is in Jinling, the Divine Guard Army will naturally move eastward to take over the duties of the town navy, so that the town navy can free up its hands to go north.
Yang Bao and Bian Juyi did not hesitate at all, after all, even if there was no way to participate in the Northern Expedition, they would not be able to run away from the honor of the "Praetorian Guard". Defending the safety of Ye Yingwu and Jinling is also an unshirkable burden.
"The general of the expedition to the east, the commander of the four compartments of the town and navy, and the king is used; General Zhendong, the commander of the four compartments of the town navy, the marquis of Yu and Huchen. β
Su Liuyi and Zhang Shijie entered the court, if it were not for the fierce battle in front of them, they would naturally not have left Beijing, and the commander of the town navy and Du Yuhou naturally could not let the two of them continue to serve, and they could just be handed over to the famous "double king" of the town navy.
"The general of the expedition to the west, leading the Sichuan and Shu armies to command the envoy Gundam; General Zhenxi, leading the Sichuan and Shu armies, all four compartments are waiting for Zhang Jue. β
Now that the war in Sichuan and Shu has subsided a little, the departments of Luzhou and Hezhou are still fighting with Liu Quan, so Gao Gao and Zhang Jue were not present, and the rewards that should be awarded are also received by Wang Shichang.
"General Hu Ben, leading the gods and commanding the army in all four compartments, Wang Jin; General Zhenyuan, leading the gods and the army, all four compartments are waiting for Tang Zhen. β
The Shence Army and the Tianwu Army are now fighting each other in Xuzhou and Caizhou, and they are also the main force of Ye Yingwu's Northern Expedition to drive Heluo in the future, and now they are named "Tiger Ben" and "Zhenyuan".
"General Zhengnan, leading the Xuanwu Army to command Li Fu; General Zhennan, leading the Xuanwu army to wait for Yang Ting. β
Li Fu and Yang Ting have already led the rear of the town navy to the south, and they are not there at this time, and from this, everyone can already see that Ye Yingwu did not plan to let the Mongolian Tartars of Dali and the monkeys of Annan watch the play happily, and this Xuanwu army is intended for them.
"Fubo General Sun Huchen, Dinghai General Zhang Shun, Henghai General Bai Nutao, Lou Chuan General Zhang Gui."
The sailor is the top priority, and with so many generals in a company, many civil and military forces naturally have no objections, not to mention that the merits of the sailor are really learned, and everyone has nothing to find fault with.
Liang Yanwu carefully put away the holy decree with the dense name written on it, and bowed respectfully to Ye Yingwu before retreating.
There are still many officials in the entire hall, and there are even more officials in the state capital of the world, so it is naturally impossible to read out the names one by one. What I just read is only the central officials of the future Ming Dynasty and the core generals of the army, and their previous exploits deserve such glory for them.
"A certain Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· You can also see the will of this king later, and the official positions of each person on it are all clearly written, and they belong to the political affairs hall, the six departments, the imperial history platform, the bachelor's Hanlin Academy, or all the military departments, all of which must be clearly understood. Ye Yingwu stood on the stage, his eyes were blazing, and he said in a deep voice, "Today is the first court meeting of the Ming Dynasty, do you ministers have something to play?" β
"Your Highness is tired and tired today, it is better to retire to rest as soon as possible." Wen Tianxiang stood up and said loudly, "Your ministers are also newcomers, the dust has not been washed, and most of the affairs have not been handed over. β
"That's fine." After Ye Yingwu was silent for a moment, he still nodded slightly, after all, he couldn't help but consider that many civil and military officers had just arrived in this Jiankang Mansion, and they didn't even have time to catch up with their own royal ceremony.
Because there were no eunuchs around him, Liang Yanwu, who was a scholar of Longtu Pavilion, had to stand up again with a bitter face at this time: "All the ministers have retired from the dynasty!" β
"Minister, obey!" A group of civil and military officers bowed to Ye Yingwu in unison, and then slowly retreated, and after a while, only that somewhat old figure remained in the entire hall.
"You should step aside, too." Ye Yingwu commanded softly, and Liang Yanwu hurriedly retreated.
The crutches gently tapped on the ground, Ye Mengding walked to the bottom of the steps step by step, and looked up at Ye Yingwu slightly: "Your mother must be already behind, and the old man will also go to see Wanniang." β
Ye Yingwu was stunned, and hurriedly stepped forward to support him carefully: "Well, my mother arrived at noon, but the child came directly before I saw her, so I don't know where my mother is now." Daddy, this is Gaozong's palace, although it has been dilapidated for a hundred years, but it can still live after renovation, and the backyard of the palace is big enough, and Daddy and his mother live here. β
His hands trembled a little, and Ye Mengding muttered: "That's it, if your mother wants to live, let her stay, and the old man should go to your brother's mansion to rest." β
"Is it because the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty once lived here?" Ye Yingwu said in a deep voice, looking straight at the old man next to him who looked getting older and older.
Ye Mengding didn't flinch, turned his head sideways to look at Ye Yingwu, and squeezed out a smile with difficulty at the corner of his mouth: "The old man is uneasy in his heart, maybe because of this." β
However, Ye Yingwu was not angry, but nodded: "Daddy's wishes, the child naturally can't disobey it, but in this way, the child can't be filial piety under his knees, and I ask my father to understand." β
Ye Mengding trembled and looked at his youngest son, who was actually the most promising, and stretched out his hand and patted him lightly on the shoulder: "Yuanlie, my father doesn't want to beg you to fulfill your filial piety, it's enough to have your brother." Daddy only asks you to do your best, with this civil and military, with this good man in the world, to recover everything we have lost in the past three hundred years. β
Seeing that Ye Yingwu was silent, Ye Mengding just muttered to himself: "Han Tang, Daming, Han Tang, DamingΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·" (To be continued.) )
