Zhu Yunxi smiled when he heard this.

"Grandpa, this time the fourth uncle won the northern expedition, didn't you hand over the matter of how the court and the central government rewarded him?"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.

Now Jinyiwei has confiscated the property of more than 300 officials, and the fines of Jingchuan Hou Cao Zhen and others have also been handed over.

After getting the money, he decided to do something to reward the Yan King's northern expedition.

Zhu Yunxi said: "Sun Er was thinking about it before, and it was a good thing that the army was victorious. But how to accommodate those disabled soldiers is a headache. ”

This time, it wasn't just Zhu Yuanzhang who nodded in agreement. Even Zhan Hui and the others nodded in agreement.

The DPRK and China have used troops again and again, and the disabled soldiers accumulated over the years are no longer ordinary. Every year, the imperial court has to spend a lot of money to support these soldiers, as well as the old and young in their families.

Zhu Yunxi continued: "My grandson thinks that no matter how disabled my Ming soldiers are, they all want to serve the Ming Dynasty. In this case, why not let them still do things for the court, and the court can also give them more benefits, so as to feed a large family. ”

This is the thing that really touches on benevolence.

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately looked forward to it, and hurriedly spoke: "Hurry up, if you can, grandpa will let you do it, don't chill the hearts of the soldiers." ”

Zhu Yunxi snorted and nodded: "My grandson thinks that the court and the central government have a lot of silver, but not much, which is probably enough for those soldiers and their families to eat." ”

"In this way, this is a good time for the post station to be restructured, why don't the imperial court select those soldiers who can't be engaged in farming, and those who can't support their families, let them go to the post station to do things."

"Even if you can't deliver letters, you can also record letters in the post station, tidy up the house, and take care of the storehouse?"

That's a good idea!

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded solemnly and expressed his approval.

Zhu Yunxi continued: "Sun Er thinks that this time the post station system of the DPRK and China is restructured, and the sale of stamps and other items on weekdays can only be carried out in Yingtian or in the local state capital. The imperial court naturally wants to take the lion's share of these revenues, but it also has to share some of the subsidies and supplies to the officials in the post station. ”

"In this way, even if the imperial court places soldiers in the post station as officials, there will be no shortage of money and money sources."

In addition, the DPRK and China can also send and receive letters, receive ordinary people, merchants, accommodations, and inventory according to the number of letters sent and received by each post station every month, and issue some reward money. In this way, the original officials and those brothers who have changed from soldiers to post officials can also get more money to support their families. ”

Military officer.

This is something that Zhu Yunxi suddenly remembered just now.

At this time, taking out this matter, for the old man and Zhan Hui and other ministers, it is a way to solve the possible shortage of manpower in the post station in the future, and how the imperial court can better support the disabled soldiers.

But for Zhu Yunxi, it was an experiment in the future to reform the court system and how to better settle the soldiers who fought bloodily for the Ming Dynasty on the front line.

Compared with the number of officials in the court, the Ming Dynasty has the most officials who have no official positions, but are still working in the official yamen.

These people are often the children of local big families, or old students who have not been able to succeed in scientific examinations.

It is precisely because of this that after a long time, it is easy to form a local government, and there is obviously the chief official of the state capital Mingtang with the seal of the imperial court, but many things in the local area often have to be supported by the old officials in the yamen and the clans behind them.

Over time, the core power at the local level has also become intertwined, and there is a ridiculous helpless situation in the imperial court that the imperial power does not go to the countryside.

Was it true that the emperor was unwilling to allow his authority to appear directly in the local countryside?

I don't know that the emperors of all dynasties are unwilling, but they can't do it.

Once the goal of transferring the army to the rear army is achieved, Zhu Yunxi can be based on the basis step by step, squeezing the right to speak of the local clans and the right to rule among the countryside.

In later generations, such a system was very popular for a certain period of time.

At this time, he saw that the old man had doubts on his face.

Zhu Yunxi immediately said: "Grandpa, there is not much time left before your longevity, my grandson thinks, the restructuring of this post station, as well as the implementation of the sale of stamps, is limited to Zhili."

And this time, you handed over the matter of rewarding the victorious soldiers of the fourth uncle to the Northern Expedition. The two things happened to collide together, how to settle those disabled soldiers, it is better to let the grandson do it in Zhili.

Even if there is any turmoil in the back, the court can also react and stop the deterioration of the situation as soon as possible. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang did not ask the courtiers for their opinions this time, but looked at the prince who was still basking in the sun.

As if sensing the old man's gaze, Zhu Biao, who had not flipped through a few pages, put down the scroll in his hand and turned his head to look at it.

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled on his face: "Prince, what do you think of what your son said about this?" ”

Zhan Hui and the others raised their heads at the same time, looking at the crown prince who was obviously no longer far away from taking care of the government these days.

It seems that because of this serious illness, the prince gave birth to the character of an idle cloud and a wild crane.

But fortunately, His Majesty is safe, and the imperial grandson has grown up.

Zhan Hui and the others felt that as long as they gave the prince a little more time to raise him, they would still be able to see the graceful Ming crown prince in the court after all.

Zhu Biao was a little helpless, and in front of everyone's eyes, he couldn't get out.

After pondering for a while, he had to speak slowly: "If the imperial court can take advantage of the post station restructuring to properly resettle the disabled soldiers in the army, it should be another benevolent government for our dynasty." ”

The crown prince's voice echoed in the side hall.

So in people's hearts, they all understood what the prince meant.

As long as this matter of military transfer is done, it will be the benevolent government of the Ming Dynasty.

You must know that the imperial grandson mentioned the reform of the post station before, but he never received such attention and praise from the prince.

Zhu Yuanzhang also nodded: "I can be a Ming soldier, the old have something to rely on, and the old and young at home have no worries about food and clothing, so we don't want anything more." ”

As he spoke, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Yunxi again, and his face showed some helplessness.

Subsequently, it is replaced by pampering and anticipation.

His eyes were like torches and he said, "Grandpa has also handed over this matter to you." Remember, the post station is restructured, and if you earn more and earn less, you don't have to do it, it's a big deal that grandpa won't do it on this Halloween.

But if you want to settle those soldiers who have retired from the army due to disability, you must settle down for your grandfather.

If things go wrong, we won't be able to eat good fruit! ”

Zhan Hui and the others stood aside, their feet and hands together, their eyes sinking.

Zhu Yunxi nodded vigorously.

This is the Emperor Hongwu of the Ming Dynasty who revitalized the orthodoxy of the Han family in the Central Plains, drove out the Tartar humiliation, and reorganized the Han family.

He didn't care if the imperial court could make much money on this matter.

He is more concerned about whether his soldiers and his people can live better under the rule of the Ming Dynasty and under his rule.

Zhu Yunxi agreed in a deep voice: "Grandpa, don't worry, grandpa will definitely handle this matter, and he will never chill the hearts of the soldiers!" ”

"Well, you can do it." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and waved his hand, and then looked at Zhan Hui and the others: "You all should go, there have been a lot of things in the court and the central government recently, and you must assist the grandson of the emperor to do everything properly and beautifully, and you must not make mistakes." ”

Zhu Yunxi, Xie Jin, Zhan Hui and others all condensed and bowed down.

"The grandson is leaving."

"The ministers are leaving."

……

When everyone dispersed, except for the emperor and the crown prince in the side hall, only Jiang Xuan, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, stayed.

Although he is a courtier, he is also a confidant of the emperor, and there are many things that are inconvenient for officials in the court and the central government to say in person.

At this time, there were no outsiders in the temple.

Jiang Yu spoke in a low voice: "Your Majesty, there was an accident when the envoys of the various countries stayed in the post house last night, and the imperial grandson went to appease the envoys of the various countries late at night. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was still watching the prototype of those stamps at this time, and when he heard Jiang Zheng's words, he just hummed.

Jiang Zhen observed his words and continued to whisper: "The imperial grandson met with Yoshinoji Ma, the envoy of the Southern Dynasty of the Wa Kingdom, afterwards to discuss. The order of the grandson of the emperor of Jinyiwei was reported and archived in the Yamen of Jinyiwei. ”

At this point, Zhu Yuanzhang gathered his mind and looked at Jiang Xuan: "The imperial grandson and the envoys of the Japanese state have discussed something. ”

Listening to the emperor's words, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

He was talking about Yoshino Terama, an envoy of the Southern Dynasty of the Wa Kingdom, but the emperor replied to the envoys of the Wa Kingdom.

Although they all sound the same, they are all envoys from the Wa Kingdom, but now the situation in the Wa Kingdom is in the division of the north and the south, and at this time, the emperor called the Yoshino Temple Ma of the Southern Dynasty an envoy of the Wa Kingdom, and its meaning has been revealed.

He immediately spoke: "The imperial grandson and the envoys of the Japanese State have discussed for a long time, and it has been decided that I will send troops to the Japanese State this year to help the Japanese State calm down the domestic turmoil and stabilize the situation of the Japanese State.

The emperor's grandson wants to set a land of fifty miles as the place where my Ming soldiers are stationed. It was also agreed that if the situation in the Japanese state was calm, the Ming Dynasty could occupy the scope of the Northern Dynasties and gain three percent of the mineral deposits. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang has handed over the affairs of the Wa Kingdom to Zhu Yunxi.

It's just that when he heard this point in time, he frowned: "This year, I am going to send troops to the Japanese country?" ”

Jiang Zhen nodded: "When the imperial grandson discussed with the envoys of the Japanese State, he had already found out the truth about the other party, at most tomorrow, no matter how much it was next year, the Southern Dynasty would be defeated by the Northern Dynasty." ”

Thinkers

Zhu Yuanzhang put down the stamp in his hand and patted the table: "Has the imperial grandson arranged how to send troops?" ”

Jiang Zhen replied: "The emperor's grandson ordered the founding prince to dispatch soldiers who can fight in good water, and Longjiang Shipyard organized warships, and sent troops to the country after the Wanshou Festival. ”

Why does the prince love to read so much now?

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the prince in the sun on the side, muttered dissatisfiedly, and then ordered: "Tell Chang Sheng, do this matter in a low-key manner, don't spread it." Jin Yiwei secretly spies on the ...... of the Wa Kingdom The other group of people will not want them to return to the country this year. In addition, the soldiers who were dispatched should settle their families, and you Jinyi Guards should put some people in, and now they must quickly place people in advance to go to the Japanese country. ”

The emperor commanded in the same way, and Jiang Zhen nodded again and again.

After that, Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand: "You go and do it, Jinyiwei has been complicated recently, let's ask the imperial grandson to reward him." ”

Jiang Zhen immediately spoke: "The ministers thank Your Majesty, the ministers serve the country, are loyal to Your Majesty, and do not ask for rewards." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang just smiled and waved his hand silently.

Jiang Zhen bowed and retreated.

After there were no outsiders in the hall, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the prince not far away.

"You're not afraid of getting sunburned?"

Zhu Biao, who had just picked up the scroll again, couldn't help but be stunned, so he had no choice but to put away the scroll in his hand and put it on the eucalyptus table on the side.

"Father, it was Yun Xi and his sons who said that if you want your legs and feet to get better faster, you have to bask in the sun more."

Zhu Yuanzhang opened his mouth, and finally took a sip of obscurity: "That kid is talking now, but you are listening more and more." Who is Lao Tzu and who is the son? ”

Zhu Biao smiled silently and stretched out his hands to pat his legs.

It seems that it is indeed because of the sun, the legs that were not much conscious a few days ago also have some feelings, only the blood veins on the legs are flowing slowly.

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, thinking that the kid had also told him not to watch the music for too long at night, so that he felt less delicious in his heart.

He beckoned to his son: "Come here, the matter of the soldiers in the army who Yunxi mentioned today has been turned into a post officer, I see that you still seem to have some words that have not been said in front of everyone, and now there are only the two of us, you can talk about it well." ”
