The rest of the soldiers who participated in the counterinsurgency will be rewarded according to the size of their military merits, and I hope that my Ming soldiers will be united and will always protect my Ming Dynasty! Chin this! ”

Just when everyone in the hall was shocked by the rewards Li Yuntian received, Jin Ying methodically read out the list of rewards behind him, all of whom were high-ranking generals of the counterinsurgency army.

"Thank you Emperor Longen, long live my emperor, long live, long live." Hearing that Jin Ying read the word "Qin this", Li Yuntian hurriedly and solemnly bowed his hand to Emperor Xuande, bowed and thanked him.

Among the generals of the counterinsurgency, the second marquis and the fourth uncle were entitled, which was the largest number of people in the Ming Dynasty since the Jingnan Dynasty, and the third force in addition to the founding honors and the Jingnan honors was born in the Ming Dynasty - Xiaowu Honors, referring to those who came out of the Xiaowu army.

Since the Yongle Emperor, each of the three titles of the Ming Dynasty, the prince, the Hou, and the earl is divided into four classes, the first class is called the founding of the country and the auxiliary Yun Tuicheng, the second class is called Fengtian Jingnan Tuicheng, the third class is called Fengtian Yiyun Tuicheng, and the fourth class is called Fengtian Yiwei Tuicheng.

Among them, the first-class founding auxiliary Yun Tuicheng was awarded to those who followed the Hongwu Emperor to open the country, the second-class Fengtian Jingnan Tuicheng was awarded to the nobles who followed the Yongle Emperor to raise troops, and the rest of the honors who made military merits were awarded the third-class Fengtian Yiyun Tuicheng or the fourth-class Fengtian Yiwei Tuicheng.

Therefore, Li Yuntian and the others can only be awarded the third-class Fengtian Yiyun or the fourth-class Fengtian Yiwei, and the third-class Fengtian Yiyun is already the highest level of the current title of the Ming Dynasty.

"The emperor has a decree, and Zhenwu Hou enters the cabinet as a bachelor and assists the cabinet members in handling the chapters in various places." After Li Yuntian thanked him, Jin Ying closed the holy decree in his hand and announced loudly.

"Thank you, Lord Long." Li Yuntian knelt down again when he heard this, and kowtowed to Emperor Xuande in a proper manner, he knew very well that Emperor Xuande was paving the way for him to become a cabinet scholar in the future, so that he could enter the cabinet more conveniently in the future.

The officials present were not surprised by Emperor Xuande's edict, Li Yuntian was a Hanlin attendant, so he was naturally qualified to enter the cabinet to do things.

According to the promotion route of university scholars, if Li Yuntian wants to become a cabinet scholar, he must first become a bachelor of Hanlin University, and then become a scholar of Chunfang University on the left and right, so that he can be promoted to a cabinet scholar.

This is not to say that Li Yuntian must hold the official position of Hanlin Bachelor or Left and Right Chunfang University Scholar, as long as he has these two positions in his part-time job.

"Get up." Emperor Xuande smiled and bowed slightly to Li Yuntian, who was kneeling on the ground.

To tell the truth, if it weren't for Li Yuntian's lack of qualifications, Emperor Xuande wanted Li Yuntian to directly enter the cabinet, so as to lead the tax reform of the Ming Dynasty, implement the "apportionment into the mu" throughout the country, and return the financial power to the household department, so as to prevent local officials from paying taxes and filling their own pockets.

Since Li Yuntian Xuande reduced or exempted taxes in the Ming military-controlled Jiaozhi Prefecture for three years, secretly implemented the practice of "apportioning the land into the mu," and transferred the local financial power to the Jiaozhi Political Envoy, the finances of those prefectures not only did not deteriorate, but agriculture and commerce developed rapidly, and the economic situation can be said to be changing with each passing day.

According to Li Yuntian's report, last year, the agricultural and commercial taxes of those state capitals alone amounted to 2 million taels of silver, which not only fully covered the expenses for the operation of the yamen in various localities and the expenses for building bridges and roads in the state capitals, but also ended up surplifying 300,000 taels.

This really surprised Emperor Xuande, and it was hard for him to imagine how Li Yuntian could save 300,000 taels of silver in a barbarian land like Jiaozhi.

However, from this matter, Emperor Xuande realized that the tax policy and financial system implemented by Li Yuntian were far superior to the current Cai Fu policy and financial system of the Ming Dynasty, so he wanted to promote it throughout the country.

But this is not easy to say, because tax and fiscal changes would mean that the interests of local officials would be touched upon, and they would definitely be opposed by local officials.

It is worth mentioning that due to the underdevelopment of commerce in ancient times, the land tax and the ding tax were the most important forms of taxation, and it was from these two taxes that local officials collected money.

Therefore, in Emperor Xuande's view, Li Yuntian was not competent to do this matter, and Li Yuntian not only had the means to deal with those local officials and make them obediently subdued, but also could easily promote the reform of taxation and finance, so that there would be no mistakes.

"Your Majesty, the two great chiefs of the former Zhancheng Kingdom admired the emperor's heavenly might, and specially went to Beijing with his ministers to meet him, and now he is waiting outside the palace, I don't know if the emperor can send down grace to let them get what they want."

After standing up from the ground, Li Yuntian bowed his hand at Emperor Xuande and bowed down.

"The emperor has decreed that the two chiefs of Xuanyuan Zhancheng will meet you!" Emperor Xuande bowed slightly to Jin Ying, who was standing on the side, and Jin Ying immediately shouted at the attendant standing at the door of the palace.

With Jin Ying's voice, Dogesa and Lundes, who were dressed in the local festival costumes of Champa, were soon led into the hall by an inner attendant in the corridor outside the Taihe Palace, and walked towards Emperor Xuande under the gaze of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military.

Facing the magnificent Forbidden City, Lundes looked a little frightened, he saw such a grand building for the first time, and at the same time, he was also shocked by the dense civil and military officials on the Taihe Palace Square, it was hard to imagine that the population of the Ming Dynasty would be so large.

Compared with Lunds, Dogesa's mentality is much more stable, he once studied in Nanjing Guozijian and saw the imperial palace of Nanjing City, so he was not as shocked as Lunders.

"Chen Duogesa knocks on the emperor, long live the emperor, long live, long live!"

"Chen Lundes knocks on the emperor, long live the emperor, long live long live!"

……

After stopping in front of the hall, Dogesa and Lundes knelt on the ground side by side, and greeted Emperor Xuande in Chinese.

Because Dogesa had been in Nanjing for a long time, he could speak Nanjingnese fluently, while Lunders's language was very stiff, he had only started learning Chinese in the past six months, so his foundation had not yet been greatly developed.

"Get up." Emperor Xuande smiled and lifted up to the void of Dogesa and Lundus, motioned for the two to get up, and then said with a smile, "I heard that the two of them are one of the five chiefs of the city, and this time the city can be attached to me, the two of them are indispensable, tell me how you want me to reward you?" ”

"Your Majesty, this is the duty of the ministers and the blessing of the people of Zhancheng, there is no need for the emperor's reward, I just hope that we can stay in the army and continue to serve the Ming Dynasty."

Dogsa's good Chinese was naturally answered by him, so he looked at Emperor Xuande seriously when he heard this, politely refused Emperor Xuande's reward, and put forward his own conditions.

"Well, since you are so faithful, then I will fulfill you."

Emperor Xuande already knew about the agreement between Li Yuntian and Dogesa and Lundes, so he nodded and said in a deep voice, "Spread my will, enter the Fengtian Yiwei for the fourth-class Fengtian Yiwei to push Cheng Hai Weibo, and enter the Feng Longdes for the fourth-class Fengtian Yiwei to push Cheng Hai Pingbo, and enter the Xiaowu Army to serve." ”

"Emperor Xie!" Dogsa couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this, before this he was really worried that Emperor Xuande would change his mind, so he hurriedly thanked the emperor with Lundus.

The civil and military officials in the main hall couldn't help but be taken aback when they heard this, and looked at each other, the Xiaowu Army is now the elite division of the Ming Dynasty, but Emperor Xuande actually let Dogesa and Lundus, the two newly attached aliens, hold positions in the Xiaowu Army, in case the two of them have bad intentions, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Your Majesty, the minister has been in Jiaozhi for many years, and often receives reports of pirates in the South China Sea plundering civilian ships, and the minister implores the emperor to set up a sailor division to clear out the pirates in the South China Sea and ensure the smooth navigation of the South China Sea."

Just when the ministers thought that Emperor Xuande's move was quite inappropriate, Li Yuntian bowed his hand to Emperor Xuande and shouted a loud message.

"Your Majesty, according to the report of the coastal guard, in recent years, the Japanese have harassed our coastal areas more and more frequently, and the landing and looting of the Japanese in Fujian and Zhejiang have occurred from time to time.

As soon as Li Yuntian's words fell, Zhou Zheng, the Duke of Zhongguo, bowed his hand to Emperor Xuande and said quietly.

"Your Majesty, the Japanese are cunning, and the ministers also think that it is better to take the initiative to attack simply than to defend them, even if they can't be exterminated, they must be made to have scruples and dare not harass my southeast coast." Subsequently, Zhang Fu also spoke and seconded Li Yuntian's proposal.

"Your Majesty, in recent years, the number of reports on the attacks of the Japanese in the coastal state capitals has increased year after year, and it is time to teach those Japanese invaders a lesson." After Zhang Fu finished speaking, Yang Shiqi, the first assistant of the cabinet, also stood up and reported to Emperor Xuande in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, the minister feels that it is not appropriate to set up a water division at this time, thanks to the emperor's grace in recent years, my Ming people have been able to recuperate, and now the country is flourishing, once the formation of the water division will cost a huge amount, the treasury has spent a lot over the years, and there is not much surplus silver allocated to the water division, which is bound to increase the burden of the people, please think twice before acting."

Since the members of the military cabinet and the cabinet agreed with Li Yuntian's proposal, then the civil and military officials at the scene felt that the matter of forming a sailor division was a foregone conclusion, but after Yang Shiqi finished playing, an opposing voice suddenly sounded out out of place.
