Song Gu Xi squirmed his chapped lips with difficulty: "Water, water......"

"You can't drink water right now!"

Zhu Qizhen turned around and took a bowl of water, dipped it in a soup spoon, and gently tapped it on her chapped lips.

"That knife pierced the intestines, and the water will flow out of the belly when you drink it, so bear with it!"

Hearing Zhu Qizhen say this, Song Guxi's face was a little shocked, as if he was imagining the situation of flowing water from his intestines.

"You don't have to worry, I have already sent an imperial doctor to show you, the injury is not deep, and you can get better after a few days of recuperation."

In this situation, even if Zhu Qizhen knew that it should be stitched up immediately, in this era, there were no conditions for surgery at all, so he had to rely on Song Gu to carry it by himself.

Fortunately, the injury is not deep, and I hope she can get through this hurdle.

"The Emperor...... Your Majesty, White Lotus ......"

Song Guxi seemed to want to say something, but his physical strength was too weak, and he was out of breath as soon as he said a few words.

"Don't worry, I know, it was Yang Xiong who coerced you, didn't you?"

Song Guxi's eyes were very surprised, and a little frightened.

Unexpectedly, the emperor knew about his meeting with Yang Xiong!

"I can't spare them!"

Zhu Qizhen said hatefully: "However, I don't know something, what exactly did they coerce you to do?" ”

Song Gu Xi once again showed an aggrieved look, and struggled to say, "They ...... In collusion with the Japanese Invaders, they plan to ...... Fan Huai'an ...... Ahem......"

Zhu Qizhen couldn't help frowning, and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, speak slowly!" ”

Song Guxi nodded slightly, and then tried to narrate what happened.

It turned out that Yang Xiongde asked Song Guxi to pass on a piece of information to Jinyiwei, probably the content of which was that the Japanese were ready to attack Ningbo as a whole.

Song Guxi was very puzzled about the source of the intelligence, and after repeated questioning, Yang Xiong revealed the truth.

Wang Yonghe, the left attendant of the Ministry of Works, went to Huai'an Mansion to control the flooding of the Yellow River and requisitioned 60,000 people locally.

Huai'an Mansion is close to Nanjing, which is an extremely sensitive place.

For the White Lotus Sect, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

If Song Guxi's transmission of false information works, then next, Nanjing's troops will be transferred to Ningbo to deploy, and their people can take the opportunity to make some big moves in Huai'an.

The base camp of the White Lotus Sect is in Nanzhili, and there are many internal responses in Nanjing City, and even some imperial court officials have been infiltrated into it.

If you can successfully fan the rebellion of 60,000 people in Huai'an, coupled with the Japanese invaders attacking from the sea, it is not impossible to take Nanjing in one fell swoop!

In fact, before Yang Xiong came to find Song Gu Xi, the White Lotus Sect was eyeing the 60,000 people in Huai'an Mansion, and the only thing they were worried about was the problem of Nanjing's city defense.

After hearing this, Zhu Qizhen looked very shocked, during this time, he put all his energy in the north, and he never expected that someone would quietly target Nanjing.

Five Generations of Rivers, Mountains and Moons

From this point of view, it is not easy to be the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and if you are not careful, you will catch fire in your backyard.

"Your Majesty!"

At this time, I heard Jin Ying shouting softly outside the door: "It's time to go to court!" ”

Zhu Qizhen said to Song Guxi: "You can recuperate from your injuries with peace of mind, and I will come to see you after I am busy with business." ”

Song Gu Xi nodded lightly and let go of the hand that was tightly gripping Zhu Qizhen's clothes.

On the Fengtian Palace, hundreds of civil and military officials have been waiting for a long time.

Zhu Qizhen wore a robe and came to the main hall, and the ministers were headed by King Yu and shouted long live.

In the early days of this day, the first major event to be discussed was the reward of the soldiers.

On the way back to Beijing, the cabinet had already drawn up a charter, which was presented by Zhu Qiyu.

Yu Qian, the left attendant of the Ministry of War, was promoted to the secretary of the Ministry of War, added the prince and the prince, and awarded the special doctor Guanglu;

Kuang Yu, the former secretary of the Ministry of War, was reappointed as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Hu Hu, the former secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was old and had resigned to his old age.

Commander of the guards, loyal to the martial arts and Fan Zhong, promoted to the Marquis of Zhongwu;

Li Zhen, the commander of the 3,000 battalions and the Marquis of Xiangcheng, was promoted to the Duke of Rui;

Chen Ying, the commander of the Shenji Battalion and the Marquis of Taining, was promoted to the Duke of Yasukuni;

Jinyi Wei commanded Yuan Bin, and added the title of governor of Zuodu;

Beihaiwei commanded Ha Ming, pardoned the Marquis of Beihai, hereditary replacement, and guarded Beihai;

Chen Mao, Marquis of Ningyang, was promoted to the Duke of Junguo, hereditary replacement, and guarded Hami;

The horse is Wei Jingyuan, promoted to the Marquis of Julu, hereditary replacement, and guards the Mohe;

In addition, Li Shulin, the right attendant of the Ministry of Engineering, who was responsible for the research and development of firearms, Chen Huai, who was in charge of Pingxiang Bo Chen Huai, who was in charge of the Engineering Institute, Lu Xiang, the left attendant of the Ministry of Engineering, who built the Martyrs' Shrine, Duo Yanwei, commanded A'er Begging, Hu Lin, who commanded Suzhou Wei, and Fan Guang, the chief military officer of Liaodong, all had different degrees of rewards.

The two largest knighthoods in the history of the Ming Dynasty were the first was the founding of the country and the second was Jingjing.

This reward appeared three princes, three marquises, plus the reward of the orthodox fourteenth year, which can be regarded as the third large-scale knighthood activity after the founding of the country and the Jingjing.

In fact, for civil officials, they do not want to see this situation.

Since the emperor's decree to build the Martyrs' Shrine, the status of military generals has been steadily improved, which is bound to suppress the voice of civil officials.

When Zhu Qiyu and the cabinet drafted this charter, they were already cautious, but the merits of this battle were here, and it was impossible to say that they were not knighted.

Therefore, although extremely reluctant, the civilian-bureaucratic clique has nothing to say.

Zhu Qizhen was very satisfied with this list of awards, and immediately asked the cabinet to draw up a decree and announce it to the world in recognition of the merits of the secretaries.

Next, he struck while the iron was hot and announced several decisions:

First, the people of the Central Plains migrated to Mobei and Liaodong.

The displaced people from all over the country have all migrated outside the border.

Ordinary people, as long as they are willing to move, the government must cooperate unconditionally, and anyone who dares to stop them will be punished for disobeying the order.

The household department allocates necessary daily necessities such as money, grain, seeds, and farm tools.

Second, for the vacant posts in newly established prefectures, counties, and health offices, the Ministry of Officials will send corresponding officials to take up their posts as soon as possible.

Except for the main prefects, who need to submit to the royal approval, other subordinate officials can be determined by the ministry and the cabinet.

Third, amnesty for the world.

With such a large area of land in the north, now is the time when people are needed, and the prisoners in the prisons cannot be wasted, and all criminals except for the crime of treason are pardoned.

However, felons and condemned prisoners are not allowed to return to their places of origin and can only go to Mobei.

If other prisoners take the initiative to go to Mobei, the imperial court will give corresponding subsidies.

Fourth, improve the treatment of craftsmen.

Xishan Wang Gong factory and cement workshop many times, many craftsmen are dissatisfied with the existing treatment, are trying to get out of the craftsman's status, in the final analysis, is not enough silver, now the court has money, but also to vigorously develop industry and commerce, not afraid of spending money.

In Zhu Qizhen's eyes, the household registration system of the Ming Dynasty has been a serious constraint on the current social development, and it is urgent to make changes, but it is not too hasty, you can first improve the treatment of craftsmen, and then gradually relax the restrictions between the household registrations, and when the time is ripe, you can make an order to abolish it.
