Thang Long Province.

The two kings of Annam were brought back to their capital.

As far as the eye can see, it is full of devastation.

The streets and alleys are full of unwashed blood stains. Walking through the streets, you can occasionally see houses that have been burned by fire. The once prosperous city of Thang Long was plundered by the Mo clan for a few days, and the population had been directly halved.

Of course, not all of the city's lost population died, and many families fled elsewhere.

Li Shenzong, Li Zhenzong, father and son, rode in the same carriage, and after entering the city, they were dumbfounded.

Li Dingguo said to Li Shenzong: "I am a soldier in the sky and will not harass the people, these are the sins created by the Mo father and son." “

Before everyone arrived at Lord Zheng's residence, Zhang Dai had already brought officials to greet them.

Zhang Dai served as a diplomat very early, and when the Datong Army made a northern expedition to Shandong, Zhang Dai was ordered to recruit Zuo Liangyu. Now, he is the Zuo Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, and after completing this mission and returning to China, he can be promoted to Honglu Temple.

Li Dingguo and Zhang Dai exchanged hands with each other, and Li Dingguo asked, "General Liu and General Ding are not in the city?" “

Zhang Dai replied: "General Liu is chasing the remnants of the Mo clan, and General Ding is attacking Haiyang and its surroundings. ”

Zheng's father and son failed to escape into the Ailao Mountains, but Mo Jingrui did. He heard that his father Mo Jingyu was defeated and died, and immediately withdrew his troops and returned to Gaoping's lair. As a result, halfway through, he learned that Liu Xinyu led the Datong army to capture Taiyuan, so frightened that he hurriedly ran to the west and plunged headlong into the mountains in the northwest of Vietnam

Next, it is definitely necessary to arrange the stationing of the Datong army for a long time. The first was to prevent the Vietnamese gentry from rebelling, and the second was to go into the mountains to exterminate the remnants of Mo Jingrui's forces.

The two chatted for a few words, and Zhang Dai suddenly took out the edict of questioning the guilt, and shouted: "Puppet Emperor of Annan, get off the car immediately to receive the order!" “

Li Zhenzong couldn't understand Chinese, but his father Li Shenzong was so frightened that he pulled his son and hurriedly got out of the car, knelt down on the street and kowtowed to listen to the holy decree.

Without any receiving ceremony, Zhang Dai opened the holy decree and read it, and asked the official to translate it to the people:

"Emperor Fengtian Yingmin, Zhao Ri: Annam has been the land of China since ancient times, Qin set up Xiang County (northern Vietnam), and Han set up Jiaozhi, Jiuzhen, and Rinan three counties

(North Vietnam, Central Vietnam), after thousands of years are our Chinese territory. However, it lives in a corner, has been dyed by barbarians for a long time, gradually does not learn the teachings of sages, and even forgets who their ancestors are...

"The former Ming Dynasty recovered Annam, set up the Jiaozhi Political Division, and its people returned to the embrace of the mother country. And there were traitors who rebelled and raised troops to stand on their own, and the virtuous king could not bear to be robbed by the soldiers, so he gave the king of Annam the golden seal, allowing it to be China's fence forever."

"Lord Annan, who has been created in this way, is not grateful for virtue and has delusions. He changed the name of the country to Da Yue, and arrogated Yue Yin to be called the emperor. If the lord of the southern kingdom is the emperor,

Where is the Son of Heaven in China? ”

"There is also the puppet emperor Li Weimu of the Annan Li Dynasty, who killed the virtuous concubines and virtuous ministers, reused the traitorous ministers' relatives, exploited excessively, and the people resented. so that there are many uprisings,

The warlords have seized the remnants of the people and put our Chinese remnants in fire and water. Many of the puppet emperors of the Li clan died unexpectedly, and the clan was slaughtered. Now the lord of Annan, his ancestors were found in the mountains, and the rebellious ministers and thieves supported him, and he was the descendants of the Li family. “

"As for the founding of the Holy Monarch of Datong, Li Weiyou (Li Zhenzong), the lord of Annan, and the traitor Zheng, who did not serve the Emperor of Datong, secretly married the puppet emperor of the Zhu clan in Yunnan, which was a great disrespect, and his heart could be punished! The puppet emperor of the Zhu clan in Yunnan was destroyed, and the monarchs and ministers of Annan did not repent and embezzled more than 200 miles of Chinese territory.

It's tolerable, it's unbearable..."

This is not a holy decree at all, but an essay against thieves!

I am afraid that the Vietnamese will not understand, and there is no quotation of scriptures throughout the text, and the whole process is plain and reasonable.

Li Shenzong was in a cold sweat when he heard this, because it was determined from the beginning of the holy decree that Annan had belonged to the territory of China since ancient times. The entire Li Dynasty belongs to the traitors who steal the country. Then the lord of the Li Dynasty was not even a traitor, but a puppet found in the mountains with an unclear bloodline.

After reading the holy decree, Li Zhenzong saw that his father was trembling, and couldn't help asking: "Father, what does the Chinese emperor's holy decree say?" Do you want to help me get back to the country? “

Li Shenzong did not answer his son, but kowtowed and cried: "Holy Mingjian, all the actions of chaos are all done by the powerful minister Zheng clan. My father and son, although they are the lords of Annan, they are both involuntarily! “

Zhang Dai sneered: "Can't help yourself? Changed the name of Annan to Da Yue, and called the king Emperor Da Yue, is this also involuntarily? Your Li clan has been usurped for hundreds of years, and there is still no way of being a monarch and a minister in your heart! ”

Zhang Dai took out another holy decree: "Fengtian Yingmin Emperor Annan Junchen is unprovoked." Now take back the golden seal of the king of Annam, withdraw the kingdom of Annam,

Set up Quang Nam Province to give it! “

Li Shenzong fell to the ground in an instant.

Li Zhenzong had the idea of dedicating the country to Nanjing, and wanted to go to Nanjing to be an Le Gong and spend the rest of his life in peace.

But Zhao Han's holy decree did not even give the opportunity to dedicate the country. Directly said that the lord of Annan violated the way of the monarch and the minister, and there was no need for the existence of Annan.

It was the inherent power of the Chinese emperor to take back the legal system of Annam and destroy the country and establish provinces.

Is this reasonable?

This is very reasonable, even if it is taken to Europe and judged by those European kings, it is a reasonable behavior!

Because the successive lords of Annam have indeed transgressed.

Before Napoleon, which French king dared to claim to be the emperor of France?

The King of England was promoted to Emperor and also after colonizing India, and his title was King of England and Emperor of India.

And the king of Annam, who dared to call himself the emperor of Dayue, was strictly investigated for pure death, and Zhao Han had an extremely legitimate reason to annex his land.

You see how self-conscious the king of North Korea is, and he never dares to call himself the emperor. Whether it is a Korean palace or a Korean costume, everything strictly abides by the etiquette system, and even yellow clothes are not daring to wear. The king of Joseon's dragon robe, although it is a five-clawed dragon, but it is a special treatment, which is granted by the Ming Emperor, and the rank of the king of Joseon is the king of the county, and the etiquette is equivalent to the prince.

There is no need to find other reasons, if the Vietnamese lord dares to usurp the emperor, the Chinese emperor has the right to destroy his country!

Zhang Dai put away the two holy decrees and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, although you are guilty of the great crime of rebellion, you should be exterminated by the nine clans." But I'm a pilgrim king,

He has always been merciful, and has not condemned you to death. The Li family, all of whom moved to various counties in Hebei, will also give you a place to settle down and divide the land. When you arrive in Hebei, you should work hard to learn farming, farm and pay grain for the Son of Heaven, and be a good citizen with peace of mind... Don't thank Jun En yet? “

Li Shenzong cried with a sad face, and in addition to grief, he felt happy. At least, he doesn't have to cut off his head because of rebellion, and future generations can still live as farmers.

"Grass people... Thank you, Lord Longne! Li Shenzong kowtowed to the north.

When Li Zhenzong saw his father kowtowing, he hurriedly asked: "Father and Emperor kowtow to thank you, does the Chinese emperor want to help me restore the Li family?"

Li Shenzong explained weakly: "I, the Li clan, usurped the throne and committed the crime of rebellion. In the future, I will migrate to northern China to farm and become farmers.

You should be grateful, so that you can finally get a life back. “

Li Zhenzong had long been scared by Zheng, and he lived a precarious life. He was just a little disappointed that he would not be able to be an Anle Gong in the future, but would instead be a farmer who farmed the land. He can't even distinguish the grains, how can he cultivate them?

In order to avoid long nights and dreams, the Li father and son were quickly taken to Guangxi, and then sent someone to send them to Hebei to settle down.

In the next month, until the typhoon hit the sea, the three divisions of the Datong Army were busy recovering the entire territory of the Zheng clan, including Gaoping, which was occupied by the Mo clan.

Only Mo Jingrui is still surviving, the Ailao Mountain is too big, the terrain is complex and remote, and it needs to be kept for the future to be slowly cleared.

And the officials of the Zheng court in Annan were almost killed by the Mo father and son. The court officials who escaped with their lives, as well as those magistrates, came to Thang Long Mansion one after another, wanting to get some official positions.

"Why doesn't the imperial court send officials at all levels to govern?" Li Dingguo asked.

Zhang Dai replied: "When Lao Yu left Nanjing, His Majesty was summoning local officials. They are all those who excelled in last year's political performance evaluation, and it seems that some of them will be selected to come to Quang Nam (Annam). ”

Quang Nam was a province in Annam, and even the ruling center of the Nguyen clan. At the same time, there is also a province in Yunnan, which is called Quang Nam Fu.

Zhao Han destroyed the Zheng regime and set up a province, and it was not named Jiaozhi Province, nor was it named Annam Province, but Guangnan Province!

China has Guangdong Province and Guangxi Province, and it is normal to have another Guangnan Province.

This was also intended to frighten the Nguyen Clan, who were also often referred to as Quang Nam Quoc for their southern secession regime.

Li Dingguo asked: "Those with excellent performance evaluation come to Guangnan to be officials?" “

Zhang Dai nodded and said, "This is the result of discussions between His Majesty and the cabinet. Qianming set up Jiaozhi Province, and those who came to Jiaozhi to be officials felt that they were being assigned.

In addition, the emperor was far away, so he exploited the people excessively, and only wanted to go back after making enough money, which led to the continuous peasant uprisings in Jiaozhi at that time. Therefore, when His Majesty selected the officials of Quang Nam, he decided to choose all the officials with excellent political achievements. Moreover, I heard that the officials who went to Quang Nam Province would be given an additional level in their evaluations in the future. Not only is it faster to be promoted, but you can also be selected as a Beijing official first! “

"I see, Your Majesty Shengming!" Li Dingguo said with emotion.

The special selection of those with outstanding political achievements to serve as officials in Quang Nam Province has eliminated the illusion of the distribution of officials.

In the evaluation of political performance, an additional level is promoted, and priority is given to the selection of Beijing officials, which makes these officials more motivated.

This is not only the case in Quang Nam Province, but also in the ruined north, if those officials do a good job, they will also be promoted by Zhao Han as an exception. In the future, the officials of Ryukyu Prefecture, Hojo Prefecture, Taiwan Prefecture, and Qiongzhou Prefecture will also follow this method until the local government really develops.

Zhang Dai said with a smile: "There is another big event, this year will be the resumption of the autumn season." “

Autumn is the imperial examination and township examination.

Li Dingguo didn't feel anything about this, but he didn't know that in the northern and southern provinces, scholars had already rushed to tell each other.

Moreover, the regulations on the township examination made the traditional scholars ecstatic, and Zhao Han left a crack in the imperial examination door for the traditional scholars.

Although it is narrow, there are still a few people who can get in.
