Chapter 453: It's better to bring a grandson than a king

The Ming Dynasty is about to have two living princes!

This will undoubtedly become the biggest hot news event in the 28 years of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, except for the New Deal.

And if the founding prince Changsheng and Cao Guogong Li Jinglong really become crowned kings this time, the Ming army will definitely fall into a new frenzy.

The canonization of the prince is just like the migration of the wood in the past.

When everyone knew that the Ming Dynasty was a million-strong master, the imperial court was really awarded by the king. No one dared to imagine how much potential those soldiers who had come out of the battle for the founding of the country would burst out.

Zhu Yunxi grinded his footsteps and said casually: "Before the meritorious service was awarded, the Metropolitan Governor's Office and the Ministry of War still reviewed the military achievements of the Eastern Expedition and the Southern Expedition, sorted out the book, and sent it to the government and the opposition at the right time to show the fairness of the imperial court. ”

The steps of sealing the king are very cumbersome, the court must have a formal explanation, a clear will, and a newspaper to spread the news of all the provinces and counties in the world.

Shangshu Ruyu, who had been stripped of many powers of the Ministry of War, immediately responded and stood still, but he glanced at Xu Yungong first.

Then Ru Yu said to Zhu Yunxi: "Your Highness, the merits of the imperial court and the military department are all archived for the imperial court to deliberate." The Ministry of War thought that if it was based on military merit alone, then the founding prince and the prince of Cao Guo could be promoted for merit. It's just that the court should have a priority.

Before the founding of the country, the southern expedition had been wiped out, and two new roads were set up, followed by the expedition to the west. The matter of canonization by the imperial court should be given priority to the founding father.

After Cao Guogong's eastward crusade, there were still chaotic people in Yingzhou, and the imperial court did not set up a province to divide the county, although it had the merit of destroying the country, but it should also be second to the founding father. ”

This is a matter of common sense, but Ru Yu is helpless and must find an opportunity to say these words.

The Ministry of War is now becoming more and more inconspicuous, and under the restoration of the Metropolitan Governor's Office, the Ministry of War must firmly grasp the few remaining functions and powers.

It is not so much that Ru Yu is talking about the court's meritorious rewards, but that he is talking about the existence of the military department.

Zhu Yunxi smiled slightly: "The military department has worked hard all these years. ”

He didn't say anything more, but as soon as these words came out, Ru Yu's face obviously loosened a little.

In the surrounding area, the officials who were originally despised because of the restoration of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion and the continuous stripping of the authority of the Ministry of War have also quietly restrained their contempt for the Ministry of War these days.

Zhu Yunxi looked at Ru Yu, an old minister who had been sitting in the position of the secretary of the military department for many years.

"Now that the Ministry of War has archives, the merits of this Eastern Expedition and the Southern Expedition will be sorted out by the Ministry of War."

Ru Yu was a little grateful in her heart, and arched her hand and said, "Minister, take the order." ”

Zhu Yunxi waved his hand and continued: "Actually, how to reward the Eastern Expedition and the Southern Expedition, it still has to be judged by His Majesty. But the soldiers have been fighting outside for many years, and the court can never forget them.

The Ministry of War should make it clear to the Metropolitan Governor's Office that there should be no mistakes, omissions or omissions in the military exploits of a soldier in the Eastern Expedition and the Southern Expedition.

On the contrary, it is the reward of the founding prince and Cao Guogong. If it is a king, the king is easy to take. Following the name of the two fathers, it can be regarded as complementing each other, and when the military department and the Dadu Governor's Office sorted out the military exploits of the soldiers of the Eastern Expedition and the Southern Expedition, they wrote a chapter together, submitted it to the cabinet, and then sent it to His Majesty to read it. ”

Zhu Yunxi finished his words, and the civil and military officials who arrived at Wenyuan Pavilion today bowed down one after another to receive the order.

As for the founding prince Chang Sheng and Cao Guogong Li Jinglong, the royal titles presented to the emperor through the collegial meeting of the imperial court, there is indeed no need to be cumbersome.

Chang Yuchun, the father of the founding prince Chang Sheng, was called Chang 100,000 in the army, and was an official to the Zhongshu Pingzhang military affairs before his death.

In the second year of Hongwu, he often encountered spring explosions and died in the army, and he was only forty years old.

The imperial court posthumously presented its Yiyun Tui Cheng Xuande Jingyuan Meritorious Hero, Kaifu Yi with the Three Divisions, Shangzhu State, Taibao, Zhongshu Right Prime Minister, posthumously crowned Kaiping Wang, nicknamed Zhongwu, worthy of enjoying Taimiao.

Kaiping Zhongwu King is the title of the prince who often meets spring.

The one-word prince of the Ming Dynasty, no matter how it is, it is impossible to seal it with a different surname. The two-character county prince is the highest glory of Chang Sheng, Li Jinglong and others.

Chang Sheng's father often met the spring roar to chase after the king of Kaiping, if he is now promoted to the title because of merit, and attack him with the king of Kaiping County, it is naturally blameless.

And Cao Guogong Li Jinglong is in the same situation.

During the Hongwu period at the beginning of the country, Li Jinglong's father, Li Wenzhong, was awarded the title of Duke of Cao Guo for his merits. In the twelfth year of Hongwu, he served as the governor of the official metropolitan government and the governor of the country. In the seventeenth year of Hongwu, Li Wenzhong died of illness, and the imperial court posthumously crowned the king of Qiyang, nicknamed Wujing, worthy of enjoying the Taimiao, and the portrait was hung in the temple of meritorious heroes, ranking third, and was buried in Zhongshan.

Li Jinglong's current Duke of Cao Guo is the Duke of Guo from Li Wenzhong's predecessor. He has a similar situation with Chang Sheng, if he is promoted to the title of county king, he is the most suitable for the king of Qiyang County.

At this point, today's events arising from the success of the Eastern Expedition can be regarded as almost discussed.

Zhu Yunxi also had the intention of leaving Wenyuan Pavilion.

Zhu Gaochi, who was on the side, coughed lightly, and looked at Zhu Yunxi with surging eyes.

Zhu Yunxi only remembered at this time, fixed the foot that was about to be lifted just now, and said softly: "There is still one more thing, and the cabinet should discuss it as soon as possible, and write the charter and present it to the imperial front." ”

Ren Hengtai was deflated everywhere today, and he looked a little tired at this time, arched his hands together, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, please speak." ”

Zhu Yunxi smiled: "It's not a big deal, but I just feel that although Yingzhou is just a small place, it can be isolated overseas, and the imperial court can't set up a road too big." The cabinet came out as soon as possible, and Yingzhou should be set up as a few provinces, and when the time comes, it will be sent together with the examination of the soldiers of the Eastern Expedition and the Southern Expedition. ”

Even if the land of the entire Yingzhou is added up, it is not the largest among the fifteen roads of the Ming Dynasty.

But the extermination of the Japanese seed is not Zhu Yunxi's last step.

Completely dividing Yingzhou, a big island outside the East China Sea, and letting it die out from the roots, is Zhu Yunxi's ultimate goal.

No matter how big Yingzhou is, can it be bigger than Shaanxi Road? Can it be as big as Huguang Road?

Obviously, Ren Hengtai, the first assistant of the cabinet, knew the intentions of the imperial grandson.

He didn't have much objection, but replied softly: "Weichen received the order, and these two things will be sorted out today." ”

Zhu Yunxi nodded: "With you in the cabinet, not only is it lonely, Your Majesty and the crown prince are very relieved." ”

After that, Zhu Yunxi no longer paid attention to the civil and military scene and left on his own.

"Ministers send His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson."

Hundreds of officials bowed down one after another, shouting and sending them off.

After waiting for a long time, Ren Hengtai was the first to straighten up.

He sighed silently and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, the matter entrusted by His Highness today has to be supervised by you as soon as possible." ”

After speaking, Ren Hengtai waved his arms and robes, and was about to turn around and enter the house.

Today, Wang Jun, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, who was completely condemned as inappropriate, had a hurry on his face, and he didn't care how many people were present, and hurried forward.

"Ren Ge Lao!"

Xie Jin, Xu Yungong, and Gao Yangzhi, who were about to enter the house behind Ren Hengtai, stopped tacitly, turned their heads to look sideways, and looked at the Ministry of Industry Shangshu with an anxious face calmly.

Ren Hengtai finally let out a long sigh in his voice, turned around and glanced at Wang Jun: "The Ministry of Industry is now complicated, and the court is working everywhere inside and outside.

Pan Deshan was on the embankment of the Yellow River, eating and sleeping in the rain, and I heard that he personally led people to build an embankment to resist the material. Zhang Ergong ran day and night around the Taipingfu Mine, Longjiang Shipyard and several cement roads that were under construction.

The affairs of the Ministry of Industry are very heavy, Wang Shangshu should go back early, don't let the ministry stagnate. At the moment of the country's new conquest, the ministries and departments should also be more diligent. ”

In the end, Ren Hengtai's gaze had already passed over Wang Jun, who was pale, and looked at the other court officials in front of him.

"This time, the gold and silver in the second quarter of Yingzhou are about to be released into Beijing. His Royal Highness has previously explained to the Cabinet, and His Royal Highness has already asked His Majesty. The court has lived a tight life over the years, except for those with unclean hands and feet, most of them have lived a tight life.

At that time, part of the income of the second quarter will be shared, and the right will be regarded as a reward for the joy of the Taisun Mansion. The court does not have to write a letter of thanks, and it is necessary to be diligent in government affairs. ”

Wang Jun is finished.

Shoufu used Pan Deshan and Zhang Ergong as examples, but it was not simply to say that there were many things in the Ministry of Engineering. Lord Shoufu is warning Wang Jun that he can't be the secretary of the Ministry of Works, and the imperial court will immediately find two more suitable people to sit in the position of the secretary of the Ministry of Works.

But no one cares what will happen to Wang Jun, an idiot.

Now everyone is looking forward to the income of Yingzhou in the second quarter and when it will be released into Beijing.

Yuan Sutai should have given himself a half-day rest today, so that he could temporarily stay away from the patches of crops in Shanglin Yuanjian and clean up his head with countless complicated thoughts.

At this time, when he heard that the imperial court was going to reward gold and silver, a smile appeared on his face.

Yuan Sutai arched his hands and headed in the direction of the Qianqing Palace.

"Wechen thanksgiving, long live my emperor."

As soon as Young Master Yuan spoke, no one present arched his hands and headed towards the Qianqing Palace, followed by thanks.

That's it.

Many of the civil officials present today were promoted after the beggar bones of the previous imperial court, although they hesitated in their hearts that the imperial court would canonize a prince with a different surname, but they had no more thoughts.

This year, the court has been in too much trouble, and no one wants any more big chaos in the court at this time.

At the very least, wait until your ass is warm up in the seat below.

The civil servants are leaving.

Cao Zhen looked left and right, but suddenly raised his arms and shouted: "Old brothers, today I Cao someone is the east, and the teacher eats wine!" Congratulations to my Daming! ”

Jing Chuanhou did not have any scruples and concealment.

It immediately attracted a group of meritorious generals in Beijing to cheer loudly.

The civil servants looked sideways, with mixed feelings, but they only shook their heads.

But in the cabinet, Xu Yungong's scolding voice came from the closer: "Bastard! ”

Cao Zhen immediately shrank his head.

Peal pedal, pedal, pedal.

In the cabinet, at this time, another Xiao Hanlin came out and came to Jingchuan Hou Cao Zhen.

"Cao Hou, my grandfather said that you are all national meritorious generals, and they are all official positions. The court can't help but eat and drink, but it should wait for the court to order the government before going. The rules cannot be abolished, if the king's law is ignored, the grandfather personally called the people of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to impeach you. ”

Cao Zhen's face was tense, and he nodded again and again: "I know, I know." I bother Your Excellency to return to your grandfather, we still know the rules, so we will go to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion to discuss military affairs, and then go to eat and drink. ”

Na Hanlin didn't say much, just hummed and turned back into the cabinet room.

Cao Zhen stared at the squad room for a long time, and when he saw that there was no longer any scolding inside, he let out a sigh of relief, turned around and puffed up his chest, and looked at the meritorious generals around him.

Cao Zhen grinned again: "Go to the Dadu Governor's Mansion!" The matter of pacifying Yingzhou still has to be discussed, and the soldiers take turns, which is a lot of things. ”

Someone rolled their eyes at Cao Zhen.

This guy is just going back to Beijing in turn, and when the new batch of Beijing troops are rectified, they will continue to take soldiers and horses out of Beijing to join Liang Guogong and Xiping Hou.

No matter how much the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion has now, it has nothing to do with him.

"Go back to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion! When we're done, our brothers, we guys have to get ten for each person today! ”

Someone let out a low roar.

When someone smiled wickedly at Cao Zhen, he clasped his fists and said, "Thank you Cao Hou for making the East Banquet today, brothers remember this!" ”

Cao Zhen looked at the meritorious generals present, and without counting the number of people, his face was already green.

……

"Ahh......h

"Boom, Boom, Boom......"

"Sheng'er is obedient, don't cry, don't cry, grandpa will make a grimace for you!"

"You dog slave dodge, Poria has poop, and dodge, take the diaper."

As soon as Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Gaochi met the Qing Palace, they heard the sound of children crying, the old man's coaxing and scolding from the palace.

When the two of them entered the main hall of the dormitory, they saw that the old man had just patted him a few times, and the little Zhu Wensheng had already obediently put away his crying.

And the old man took the diaper sent by Sun Gou'er, and was about to change a new diaper for Zhu Poria next to Zhu Wensheng.

When Zhu Gaochi saw this scene, the corners of his eyes twitched a few times.

Zhu Yunxi hurriedly stepped forward and snatched the diaper from the old man's hand: "How can you do this job, send the child to the harem, and let Queqing and Caiyun manipulate it." Even if you don't want the two of them to suffer, there are so many grandmothers in the palace, just call them. ”

As he spoke, Zhu Yunxi's eyes were already looking at the corner, the two pitiful palace ladies with expressions on their faces worried that they might lose their jobs at any time.

The palace grandmother hurriedly stepped forward and took the diaper from the grandson's hand.

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted twice dissatisfied: "Teasing the grandson, teasing the grandson." At my age, that's how it should be. You kid is doing everything you can to block me day by day. ”

Zhu Yunxi was a little helpless.

That's not what your old man said at the beginning!

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the palace grandmother who was changing the diaper of Zhu Fuling, the great-granddaughter of the Emperor of the Heart and Liver, and saw that the movements of his hands were gentle, so he was relieved.

He turned his head to look at Zhu Yunxi: "How is that kid Li Jinglong, what has the cabinet discussed today." ”

Zhu Yunxi immediately spoke: "Cao Guogong has the merit of destroying the country. Today, Sun Er is in the cabinet, and the courtiers discussed the matter of the founding of the country and the promotion of the Duke of Cao Guo, and the reward of the meritorious soldiers of the Eastern Expedition and the Southern Expedition, and Yingzhou divided several roads to level the local affairs. ”

"Humph!"

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately snorted more coldly: "The left and right are just a matter of giving those two boys a county king, so that you can put it aside here to cause chaos and delay me to make fun of my grandson!" ”
