Section 271 Reward
The reward of the white crane is still the same as what he said that day, and the white crane still doesn't understand it.
In the year of coming to the Ming Dynasty, if the ancient text of the white crane is placed in the later generations, it is estimated that it can reach the undergraduate Cheng dΓΉ of the ancient literature department of the professional university.
I still don't understand a lot of the content in the reward, but it must have a lot of benefits.
If nothing else, it's the sentence of giving goldfish bags, and the white crane just doesn't understand. Even though he had seen what a goldfish bag was countless times, he didn't know the name of the East Factory. A rectangular bag embroidered with six fish in two rows looks like a carp, and has nothing to do with goldfish.
This ride, that captain or something, the white name crane heart said that it is impossible for a person to hold several positions part-time.
Bai Minghe doesn't have a deep understanding of titles, honors, ranks, and titles, because he has never worked these things, but he just knows the official character. I don't even know that the same princess actually has a difference in rank, first the difference between being named and not being sealed, and then the nobility and ordinary.
And the length of this title also has different meanings.
Even, the titles of each generation of princesses of the Ming Dynasty have special particularities.
To put it further, the names of the royal descendants of each generation of the Ming Dynasty are very particular about the words.
kneeling for a quarter of an hour, there was a row in front of the little eunuch in front of him, and there were more than a dozen trays alone, four of the seals, eight of the rolls, six sets of clothes, and various ornaments for showing identity, as well as the royal accessories given by the Ming Emperor, etc., the eyes of the white crane were spent.
At the end, Gonggong Cai shouted again: "The Bai family's godson in Guanzhong is well-organized, and the reward ......." β
This time, Bai Chongyuan came out to receive the reward on behalf of the Bai family in Guanzhong, and by the way, he also received a canonization of an edict for his mother, that is, Bai Minghe's grandmother, and then a copy for the ancestors of the Bai family. Wu Anjun's white scroll of the king.
Bai Minghe understood this time, it seems that his ancestor Bai Qi is not far from becoming a god.
Anyway, it's just kowtow for now.
When Bai Chongyuan stood up, Bai Minghexin said that the reward for himself should be over. But Gonggong Cai shouted: "In Xuanguan, the Bai family, the third son Bai Chongxi entered the palace." β
Bai Chongxi came, and Bai Minghe was a little surprised. I didn't even know.
Bai Chongxi followed Bai Chongyuan in, and he directly received the edict from the Inner Palace.
"The eldest princess of Yongqing of the royal family is the eldest princess of Ruixiang Yongqing. Give the name, Zhu Qijue! After Cai Gonggong finished reading, a eunuch immediately came out with a three-foot square piece of paper, and on it was the word Jue, Jue (JUE Jueyin)
Many civil officials were blinded, even if they already knew that they would reward the white crane, but they didn't have this reward. Hu Hui, Chen Xun, He Wenyuan ....... Seven or eight people stood up at once, and you must know that the name of Princess Daming has nothing to do with genealogy. This princess, who grew up outside the palace, not only uses the word Qi, but also has almost the same name as the current emperor.
The emperor's is golden, and the princess's is king.
"Bai Minghe, take out the jade pendant given by the emperor and show it to all Aiqing. This name was given by the first emperor, and I was only a son who obeyed the will of the first emperor. I know what Zhong Aiqing wants to say. This name has been decided! β
Bai Minghe untied the jade pendant from his neck, and several ministers took turns to look at it. Hu Hu said: "Since it was given by the emperor, then we have no opinion." Just dare to ask long live, with the law of the Ming Dynasty, a woman must have a shocking merit to enter the family tree and pass on the virtue of a hundred years. So long live the minister, attached to the white name crane of Ma Duwei. Either take the knighthood now, or wait for the meritorious service. β
Bai Minghe was stunned and looked at Hu Hu blankly.
The heart said: Old man, I have not offended you, my woman will take my title if she takes a name. What does it mean to be a meritorious man? Do I owe a meritorious service and have to pay it back later?
"I have already taken it, I have taken the marquis, and I have made a contribution to the white name crane according to the edict of Chengzu, and I can be sealed. I asked the celebrant to inspect the file and take the title. This uncle is rewarding him for his little Luzon merit, which can be checked according to the case. It's just that the edict of Chengzu should not be made public, the cabinet and the chief officials of the six ministries, and the chief officials of the Zongren Mansion can enter the palace for verification! β
"The ministers have no objections!"
Speaking of which, Hu Hu can't say anything more. Even if he has a good relationship with Bai Minghe, he will not back down on top of this kind of major matter in the hearts of Ming officials.
Next, it's time to give the wedding, the New Year's wedding. Because Bai Minghe married two princesses, he was the same wife.
The congratulatory voices were continuous, and many officials came to say hello to Bai Minghe, and those who couldn't get close to Bai Minghe also found Bai Chongyuan and Bai Chongxi.
Takaya also smiled and said hello to the white crane, after all, even political enemies should be happy about such a big wedding.
Now, it seems that we should get down to business.
But it's still a reward.
Reward Yu Qian, as the secretary of the military department. It was surrendered to three cities, and Little Luzon was stable, and bandits from all over the world were cleared. Seal the town of Yuanbo, add the prince Taibao, enter the first rank of officials, reward the palace horseback, reward a house, reward a stone......
Listening to Gonggong Cai receiving the reward, Zhu Qiyu sighed in his heart, it's good to have silver. Especially when he heard this golden stone, Zhu Qiyu had a very wonderful feeling in his heart, thinking that when he was planning to change the crown prince, he finally squeezed out a sum of silver from the inner treasury, and the reward for many officials was fifty taels or one hundred taels of silver.
The more I listened to this reward of a stone of gold, the more energetic I felt.
Yu Qian rewarded it, and the cabinet and the six ministries all had some small rewards, silver and a stone. The sailors of Guangdong, Fujian, and Nanjing have been rewarded for their administration and inspection. Then the two governors of Datong and Xuanfu and the three governors were rewarded. Next, generals, captains, and soldiers at all levels are rewarded.
The worst of the soldiers also had thirty taels of silver.
Before the blink of an eye, a full five hundred stones of silver were rewarded. How much is 500 stone of silver, 800,000 taels.
Zhu Qiyu sat on the throne and listened quietly, 800,000 taels of silver, at the beginning of his ascension to the throne, 800,000 taels of silver would definitely make him starve to death and not be saved.
Right now, it's only 500 stone of silver.
Just pull dozens of carriages on the silver transported from Bai Minghe to the capital, think about the 20,000 stones of silver on the white crane's boat, Zhu Qiyu was full of confidence, and stood up with a chair: "Yu Aiqing, before the end of next year, can you come to Yinshan and rebuild Longtian!" β
"Minister, Commander!" Yu Qian felt really uncomfortable in his heart.
Yinshan, this means to take down all the areas with fertile water and grass in the Hetao.
You must know that the original strategic idea was to use the Hetao as a buffer zone, but now it will become a total occupation. Is it necessary to spend manpower and material resources to build all the three surrendered cities into fortresses at the moment? Taking the Hetao in all of them is not only a matter of the two prefectures of Xuanda, but also related to the joint action of the three provinces of Shaanxi, Gansu, and Ningxia, and the nine guards of the military department.
Anyway, he has received such a heavy reward, and he must not say no at this time, the Ming Emperor is happy.
Even if you have a different idea, you can discuss it privately after you have retired from the court.
Yu Qian had another heavier thought in his heart at this time, that is, how much silver and how much steel could be squeezed out of Bai Minghe.
"Retreat. Tomorrow the court will meet to discuss the issue of raising honest silver. I thought that all the officials who were allowed to report to Beijing could be present, and everyone could have ideas. Even the officials of the capital can also elect a few representatives, and how much silver can be used to keep them rich and enough to spend. β
After Zhu Qiyu finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Gao Gu was stunned, this is the end, is this incorruptible silver worth the meeting of the six ministers last night on the White Crane Mansion? Isn't that a joke?
No! Gao Gu glanced at Bai Minghe, and said in his heart that Emperor Ming's hand, no matter how you look at it, it looks like Bai Minghe's way, first giving many benefits, and when almost all the officials are thinking about it, they suddenly take out a machete. It's really hard to say that this knife will cut there.
What exactly is the ultimate move? No matter how Takaya thought, he couldn't think of what this last resort was.
Hu Hu yawned and said to himself: "Go back to the house and sleep." After walking a few steps, he smiled at Bai Minghe again: "Minghe, I'm afraid that many of the goods on the ship today will be transported to Beijing." Ask your cook to prepare well in the evening, and go to your house for dinner today. β
"Ahh Shirana's answer made many people laugh.
When the officials left the palace, many low-level officials couldn't help but start discussing the idea of raising honest silver. In particular, the officials who were originally very honest were even more excited, they could be a good official, and they could also have a wealth of money.
What could be like this.
"White Crane, aren't you going home?" Yu Qian walked to Bai Minghe's side.
"Lord Yu wants to ask me how much silver I have in my hand that I can call. I'll answer you in a few days, and I'll settle the accounts with the merchants in the next two days. I won't be able to go back at this time, I'm going to Donghua Gate to check the tributes brought into the palace, and Eunuch Jin is probably already waiting for me there. Bai Minghe directly said his guess.
Yu Qian nodded: "I'll go to your house for dinner in the evening, and I'll talk about the silver in a few days." β
Yu Qian left, Bai Minghe greeted several officials again, and his father and second uncle came to him: "This long live marriage is a big event, what preparations should the family have." β
"My father has worked hard for this matter, and Yuan Jun has already discussed it with the steward of the palace. Gold, silver and jewelry are not a problem, it can be said that the things in the palace are all in our house. However, in the end, it depends on the opinion of the palace. This matter is a little troublesome, I don't know if it is the prince who officiates at the ceremony, and the Zongren Mansion will also go once. The most troublesome thing at the moment is not the big wedding, but that I want to meet the queen mother of the two palaces and the queen of the dynasty! β
Bai Minghe doesn't need to explain, Bai Chongxi also knows how troublesome it is to see the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces.
"For my father, I will live in your second uncle's house for the past few days, and your house is ......" Bai Chongxi said that there are too many big people in your house. (To be continued......)
