Section 222 The white crane that loses its brakes
Yu Qian was secretly ruthless in his heart, he must go to Guangdong once in person and make it clear to Bai Minghe in person.
The white crane is already a little lawless.
Zhu Qiyu still has ten letters in his hand, he is the emperor, and he also has his own plans and ideas in his heart. After flipping through the ten letters in his hand, Zhu Qiyu signaled that the number of people in the small court meeting would be reduced tomorrow, as long as the six Shangshu and the first and second assistants of the cabinet, as well as the left and right attendants of the Ministry of Officials were present.
That night, Zhu Qiyu summoned Jin Ying and Cheng Jing into the south study.
"The white crane wants 10,000 monks, 10,000 Taoists, and 10,000 Confucians. The reason is to educate the people of the small state and spread truth, goodness and beauty. The real reason is that Bai Minghe wants to annex Little Luzon, and plans to include Little Luzon in the territory of the Ming Dynasty within fifteen years. Tell us what you think. "Zhu Qiyu needs someone who can be discussed, and Jin Ying and Cheng Jing are the most suitable candidates.
Without waiting for the two of them to answer, Zhu Qiyu asked Gonggong Cai to explain Yu Qian's situation here in detail just now.
At the end, Zhu Qiyu said: "The hundred officials of the court will definitely not support me, even Yu Qian thinks that Bai Minghe is a bandit, and a gold mine cannot arouse the greed in his heart, but I think that Bai Minghe is not wrong. β
"Long live, Lord Yu is noble, honest and fair, and he is the pillar of the Ming Dynasty, he is right. It's just that he stood a little low, so he didn't look into the distance. Expanding the territory regardless of that dynasty or generation, that is an immortal achievement. I want to Qin Emperor Han Wu, Tang Dynasty and Song Chen, and count the wind-flow characters to see the present dynasty! β
Cheng Jing quoted a sentence from the poem that Bai Minghe had recited.
"Jin Ying, Yu Qian asked to go south, you are old, but I can't choose a more suitable person." Zhu Qiyu still has some respect for Jin Ying, although Jin Ying is a royal slave, but after all, he is an old slave of the Four Dynasties. And Jin Ying also made great efforts to sit on the throne, not to mention that Jin Ying is a rare talent.
Jin Ying knelt down: "Long live, although the old slave is old, he can still be loyal to Long Life." This time, the old slave thought that he would either leave immediately, or postpone it until after the year. But on the occasion of the New Year, the white-named crane was summoned to Beijing. After a year, they will go south in a big way. β
"What's the difference?"
"Leave early, let the hundred officials in the capital guess. Leave late, make full preparations, the old slave is ready to help the white crane, if the old slave didn't guess wrong, the white crane should still have a plan. β
At Zhu Qiyu's suggestion, Gonggong Cai sent Bai Minghe's other ten letters, as well as a copy of the copy to Yu Qian, to Jin Ying and Cheng Jing.
After reading one by one, Jin Ying and Cheng Jing's faces were almost the same. said in unison: "The white crane is a ruthless person." β
"What do you think?"
"Long live, the white-named crane is a desperate plan for the Wa Kingdom. I'm afraid that he will do this if he wants to destroy the Wa Kingdom, this move will not harm the Ming Dynasty, even if he is saddled with the name of the poor army, the old slave also asks Long live the Lord to expand the army according to the plan! Kim Young and Sung Kyung rarely agreed.
After Jin Ying finished speaking, Cheng Jing added: "The slave thinks that he will go south quickly." Recruit 20,000 elites of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies and transfer the army to the south. β
"Good. Good! Zhu Qiyu slapped the table hard.
Jin Ying and Cheng Jing are his think tanks, and Zhu Qiyu was originally tempted by the white crane to be corrupted. Now think about the white crane, after the Datong side is pacified, the combat power has doubled. In addition, the remnants of the Tumubao Rebellion were accommodated, and almost 100,000 troops were added to the Ming Dynasty, and it was not a problem for the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies to draw out 50,000 people.
It seems that the white crane is ambitious.
Zhu Qiyu was very satisfied with what Bai Minghe had done this time. The next day, he will start to implement the small pilgrimage.
The next day, the small court meeting was held in the south study, except for the Ming Emperor, a total of ten years of officials. Six Shangshu and two auxiliary ministers of the cabinet, Chen Xun and Gao Gu. Even Yang Ning and Shang Shi were not allowed to participate. Instead, he asked the servants to come over.
"Don't report today's affairs, big or small, unless they are very urgent." Zhu Qiyu was very open.
The ministers looked at each other, and they all understood that they were afraid that they had something to say today, they had something to report, but none of them were very urgent, not to mention delaying for one day, even if they were delayed for ten days and half a month, they would not be affected, and now Daming and QiΔ are on the right track.
"Let's get started!" Zhu Qiyu leaned back.
Under the command of Gonggong Cai, twenty little eunuchs came in with a few cases, and then the eunuchs and palace maids entered in turn.
Each minister has a chair, a table, and then there are four treasures of tea, snacks, and study. After the arrangement was made, the eunuchs and palace ladies all withdrew, and only a few eunuchs with official positions remained here, who sat down at the small table next to them, responsible for recording today's conversation.
"Fengtian presents the ......" Gonggong Cai took out a holy decree and read it in one go. The content of the holy decree is that the three places of Hetao, Datong, and Xuanfu, two governors, and three governors led troops and horses to sweep the desert and take the ancient surrendered city, with countless booties and countless prisoners of war. The five senior members jointly signed a letter, the Mid-Autumn Festival was raised, and the Hetao was invincible before October.
This credit is due to Yu Qian's command and arrangement, and the reward of the military general will be calculated after the Hetao is settled, and Yu Qian will be rewarded with an annual output of 100 stone gold mining area.
Yu Qian was pale, didn't say anything, and made an exception to kneel down to thank the emperor.
The Hetao is a great victory, which is a great joy. It can produce 100 stones per year......
When they heard the concept of Hyakkushi, everyone without exception thought of the white crane. Because of the gold, even the treasury records of the Ming Dynasty are calculated according to two, and only the white crane calculates the gold stone. One stone is one thousand six hundred taels, and one hundred stones is one hundred hundred thousand taels of gold.
This is gold, not silver. This figure tops the tax revenue of a province.
What kind of person is Yu Qian, even if it is a political enemy present, they have to say that Yu Qian is honest and honest. But Yu Qian has received this gold mine, and there must be many strange things in it.
"Transferred Fujian Zuo according to the inspection envoy Bai Qing as the Manila Port Inspector of the Fourth Grade, and transferred the Left Governor Mao Sheng as the Commander of the Four-Rank Rawag Thousand Households." Zhu Qiyu quickly told Bai Minghe about the two appointments carefully selected.
What the? The nine officials present were all dizzy, and Bai Qing was good or not. Mao Sheng is also a good second product. There must be a reason for this demotion.
"Long live Chen Qi, what a mistake these two people have committed, I am afraid that it will be difficult to convince the public if they are downgraded to the fourth level." He Wenyuan, the secretary of the ministry, was the first to stand up, according to his thoughts, you are the emperor, and you can't come by temperament.
Zhu Qiyu just smiled indifferently.
Yu Qian sighed softly and walked out: "Ministers, let this official explain." They are descending from the open and ascending from the dark, and Bai Qing's actual job is the governor. Mao Sheng's actual position is the governor. The port of Manila is just a port city in Little Luzon, but here, the white name crane controls the land of a thousand islands about the size of two Guangdong provinces, and the sea area is about the size of two Guangdong, and the gold mine that Long Live rewarded me. It is on the northern island of Little Luzon. β
"Long live, raising troops but fighting without purpose?" He Wenyuan fryed the pot in one fell swoop.
But the other nine people watched quietly, and even Yu Qian acquiesced, what is the point of saying anything at this time.
"There is no war, there is no need to ask more about this matter, for now I only talk about the takeover. Of course, the white crane wrote a letter asking for the enlightenment of the barbarian people, 10,000 Confucians, 10,000 Taoism. 10,000 monks went to the Thousand Islands of Luzon to educate the people. Scholars and politicians, monks and religions, and other officials must select reliable candidates, and the affairs of Luzon will be subject to the white name crane within two years! β
The white crane is a six-rank official, but this will become a senior official.
Speaking of which, Zhu Qiyu added: "I will take up my post next year." Let's go to Guangdong first to get acquainted with Little Luzon! β
"Long live the ministers, what is there in the Luzon Thousand Islands, the inhabitants are all barbarians and uneducated. Is it worth it? Hu Hu had already agreed with Emperor Ming's decision in his heart, but at this time he was the oldest. The oldest veteran minister of the Four Dynasties naturally had to come out to ask questions on behalf of everyone.
Zhu Qiyu thought of what Bai Minghe wrote in a letter to him, and couldn't help laughing.
Hu Hu didn't speak, but just gave another salute, which is hinting that you must give a reason, even if it's an excuse. It's always time to get this thing down.
In other words. What is the benefit of this matter to the hundred officials.
"I also asked Bai Minghe this question, but Bai Minghe asked me back, hoping for that kind of answer. The answer on the official face is still a nice answer, or the most practical answer. Which one would you like to hear? β
"Naturally, I want to hear it!" Hu Hu wanted to hear it. Another reason is to wonder what Shirana Crane will say.
The official answer is that as the Heavenly Empire, it is the task given to us by God to educate the uncivilized people to understand etiquette and religion, and it is also the obligation of the Ming Dynasty as the Celestial Empire. I don't know what Hu Lao thinks of this answer? Zhu Qiyu called Hu Hu Lao Hu, which is a kind of respect for the old ministers of the Four Dynasties.
In the Ming Dynasty, it was not the emperor who was high up and enslaved hundreds of officials.
Hu Hu didn't answer immediately, but exchanged two sentences with Chen Xun before he said: "Long live, the minister thinks that Bai Minghe is a scoundrel who is proficient in Confucianism, and one of the words that Bai Minghe once used to preface in front of the minister is, academic hooligan!" These words are high-sounding, but they can't hide his behavior like a demon fox. β
Zhu Qiyu laughed happily: "I like Hu Lao's comment on Bai Minghe. β
"Then please go on to sue SΓΉ Chen, etc., what about the nice answer?"
"Bai Minghe took a fancy to the gold mines of hundreds of thousands of stones and tens of millions of stones of copper mines in Little Luzon. and inexhaustible resources of abaca and coconut. The fleet of the white crane is non-stop day and night, and the port of Fujian is constantly expanding, in order to reach the goal of 50,000 stone of daily cargo required by the white crane by the end of the year, tens of thousands of craftsmen are rushing to work day and night. β
50,000 stone a day, that's an astonishing amount. The total volume of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal is also less than this 30%.
"Hu Lao commented one or two!"
"Long live, is there any information about Fuzhou Port in the palace, according to the minister's thoughts, the income of the people, merchants, and guards there will inevitably surge, at least ten times that of before."
"The commercial tax in Fuzhou is calculated in August, which is already 100 times that of last year." Zhu Qiyu smiled faintly.
Hu Hui understood that he couldn't stop it. No one can stop this matter, only support, and it is terrible to cut off the livelihood of millions of people. (To be continued......)
