Following.

Early in the morning, Zhu Xiongying got up early, and after boxing, he began to pick up a toothbrush and wash.

This toothbrush is made of cow bones with a bristle inserted in the middle.

In the time and space of the previous life, many people thought that the toothbrush was invented by Ming Xiaozong who felt sorry for his wife, but in fact, in the ancient tombs of the Liao Kingdom unearthed later, toothbrushes have already appeared.

It is even an exaggeration to say that toothbrushes have appeared in the Tang Dynasty.

During the Song Dynasty, the royal nobles already had toothbrushes, but they were not popular.

Nowadays, this toothbrush has also entered the homes of ordinary people.

Zhu Xiongying brushed his teeth, listened to Ziying, and reported the military situation in Beiping to Yao Guangxiao.

A day ago, Zhu Di personally defeated the Northern Yuan Wanhu Solin Timur in a battle at Maju'er Fort outside Zhangjiakou Fort with superior forces, and captured him alive.

Na'er didn't see this, and was about to escape.

However, they had a large number of people, and they carried a lot of baggage, and they were defeated by Zhu Di's Qianhu Qiufu with a thousand elite soldiers and surrendered on the spot.

Now, Zhu Di is coming to Beiping with Naer Buhua and Solin Timur, as well as tens of thousands of surrendered people.

"Did you send an envoy to Goryeo?"

Zhu Xiongying asked vaguely while brushing his teeth.

Yao Guangxiao hurriedly bowed his hand: "His Royal Highness the Emperor and Sun of Qiqi, the minister has ordered Ji Gang to take a Mongolian eunuch and a Goryeo female official to Goryeo by land." ”

"Oh?"

Zhu Xiongying turned around.

"Ji Gang? He's still so young, and you're going to let him go alone? ”

"This envoy is to provoke the king of Goryeo, not for the envoy, but for an opportunity, Ji Gang blood letter to ask for the throne, saying that if you can't complete the task of Your Highness, you will travel back from Goryeo."

"Hahaha......"

Zhu Xiongying laughed.

"Okay, then I'll see what he's capable of."

"By the way, what's going on over there in Chagatai now?"

Zhu Xiongying asked again.

Yao Guangxiao's smile became solemn, and said: "That Timur Great Khan, has destroyed all the Ilkhanate, and accounted for most of the Golden Horde, and the Western Chagatai Khanate has also fallen into his hands, and now he has not yet freed up his hand to attack the east, just because the Kipchaks in the west, there is still a rebellion, and the caravan of our Ansi has been found in the Chagatai Khanate, and most of the Guichiwei, Kangliwei, Asuwei, Haralu Wanhufu, Xuanzhong and Luosihuwei have surrendered, and now only the Kipchakwei and a small number of Asowei are still resisting. ”

"I'm afraid, in another ten years, this Timur will be able to dominate the countries of the Western Regions."

Zhu Xiongying nodded solemnly.

Timur the lame.

Westerners also respect him, in the previous life of the time and space, Westerners ranked the top ten gods of war in the Middle Ages, this person can often enter the top five, established the so-called second Mongol Empire, the Golden Horde, the Kipchak Khanate, the Chagatai Khanate, the Ilkhanate almost all annexed, and captured the Sultan of the Heavenly Sect.

At its peak, the territory of the country was no less than that of the Northern Yuan.

In his previous life, Genghis Khan's heirs once ran to him and asked him to send troops to the east to restore the country for the Great Yuan, he was once very tempted, led 200,000 cavalry to the east, and finally died on the road.

And Zheng He went to the West several times, and also went to the rear of the Timurid Empire, looking for allies, and attacking Timur together.

Now he is freeing up his hands to deal with the Slavic Kipchaks in the West and the rebellion of the Heavenly Kingdoms.

Zhu Xiongying took a deep breath and said, "I still need time to maintain my health, the Western Regions will definitely have to be recovered, but now is not the time, at least I have to wait for my Ming to have five million silver dollars, and I can fight a battle beautifully......"

"Although the fourth uncle fought beautifully this time and recruited tens of thousands of Mongolians at once, these Mongolians are a great burden on my Ming finances, and they need money to buy them everywhere."

"I have to think of a way to open up sources and reduce expenditure for the Ming Dynasty, and save some materials in the north......"

Zhu Xiongying looked at Ziying.

"Ziying, where are you here?"

Ziying squatted down and saluted before she said: "Through the spies hidden in the officials of various ministries, the slave has basically found out about his corruption, and there is all the human and material evidence. ”

Zhu Xiongying nodded.

"This Naer Buhua and the Mongolian people under the command of Solin Timur, many of them are Han Chinese who have been given Mongolian names, since Naer Buhua doesn't like the Hui in Ningxia, why don't you let them go to Yunnan?"

"It just so happened that I caught a few corrupt officials in Beiping and went to Yunnan to be their officials......

……

Two days later.

Zhu Di personally went out to capture the Northern Yuan Wanhu Suolin Timur, and it didn't take any time to recruit Nai'er, which caused a sensation in Beiping for a while.

This surrender happened to be in the prince Zhu Biao came to Beiping in person, and announced that Beiping would be set up as a stall in Beijing, which undoubtedly gave Beiping great excitement, and the prince Zhu Biao personally went out of the city twenty miles to greet him, and the people along the way waved and cheered continuously, singing the Ming national anthem loudly.

It's just that after the carnival, the atmosphere in the Qianyuan Forbidden City in Beijing is particularly dull.

Beijing City, the former Yuan Forbidden City.

Zhu Biao set up a simple office residence in the palace of the ancient Yuan Dynasty and was dealing with some urgent affairs.

Peiping Cheng announced that Li Yu, the political envoy, stood outside the door, fidgeting.

As the governor of Beiping in charge of the tax on money, grain, and land, Li Yu held many tax collectors in Yandi, and over the years, as the imperial court continued to send materials from the south to the north, Li Yu handled a very huge amount.

Xu Da is the military and the government, but the specific implementation is them, the civilian officials.

He and Zhao Quande, the procurator of the criminal commission, glanced at each other, and both of them sweated in their hearts.

None of them.

They embezzled a lot of money and food......

In the eighteenth year of Hongwu, the original time and space "Guo Heng" case was set off in this year, but this case did not break out in Nanzhili at first, but in Beiping, where Li Yu, the political envoy of Beiping, first exploded the thunder, embezzled the materials, money and grain supported by the south, manipulated taxes, accepted bribes from powerful landlords of the Han nationality in the north, and did not collect taxes from them......

It would be wrong to say that they are corrupt.

Because the officials of the former Yuan were all playing like this.

Beiping, as the capital of the former Yuan Dynasty, has been gone for less than 20 years.

Many officialdom customs are passed down from generation to generation.

Even if it is a different generation, it will not make a difference.

In the time and space when Zhu Xiongying came, in the later Qing Dynasty, Kangxi resolved territorial disputes and strengthened centralized power through several major wars.

And Yongzheng used a whip law to reform the tax system and collect taxes.

This is the prosperous Kangqian era of the Qing Dynasty.

Now, according to Zhu Xiongying's thoughts, in the first five-year plan, that is, 20 years before the Ming Hongwu, to resolve most of the territorial disputes and recover the homeland, at least the previous life, the nine sides of the Ming Dynasty, Shaanxi, Gansu, and Nuergandusi should be recovered.

It will take another five years to develop the economy.

The economy, that is, taxation, requires officials to govern and talents.

In fact, with the current financial mobilization capacity of the Ming Dynasty, as well as military strength, it is also possible to recover Annam and Burma, but the gains outweigh the losses, Burma locality, the rule is extremely expensive and food-consuming, and many places in the Western Regions are also, out of the Jiayuguan in Gansu to the north, and many places bordering the Chagatai Khanate, are now the deserted Gobi Desert.

In the whole of Gansu, until now in the eighteenth year of Hongwu, there are only more than 30,000 households, among which many of the seven guards in Guanxi are descendants of Mongolians and Han Chinese, less than 5,000 households.

The same is true in Yunnan.

The collection is recovered, but taxes, governance, garrisons, everything costs money.

Zhu Xiongying looked at Li Yu and Zhao Quande outside the door, and thought in his heart, if it weren't for the fact that I would need to maintain my health for a few years, according to what you committed, I would have been stripped of skin and grass a long time ago, the whole family would have been confiscated, and my wife and daughter would have been reduced to official prostitutes in the teaching workshop, and they would have been slaves for generations.

Nowadays, Yunnan and Gansu, choose one of the two......

Hey, I really have the virtue of a good life.
