Chapter 139: The Heart of the World

After Feng Sheng and other generals returned to their original positions, Zhu Yuanzhang said in a deep voice to Xue Jing, the head of the imperial study standing solemnly beside him: "Zhao Nai stabbed no into the hall. ”

As Xue Jing's sharp voice sounded in the "Fengtian Palace", a thin man wearing a seven-rank civil official costume walked into the main hall under the leadership of the eunuch, knelt on the ground three times and knocked nine times, and said in a slightly trembling voice: "Weichen is a thorn without knocking to see Your Majesty." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's scorching finger Jinyiwei Tongzhi Jiang Xian said: "Jinyiwei Tongzhi Jiang Xian led Naijian Wu to Liaodong, willing to take risks, and made great contributions to the Liaodong Yuan army to which Nahachu belonged. ”

When the civil officials in the DPRK and China saw that none of the Mongols were wearing the clothes of the Ming civil officials, they all felt a little ridiculous. It turned out that although there were many low-level officials in the Ming Dynasty, there were Mongolians who were obedient to the Yuan court in the past, but because of their living habits and other reasons, they were all officials near Beiping. It was the officials of the DPRK and the Central Committee who were below the six Shangshu departments who were very fresh when they saw this. Some young people, due to the solemn atmosphere of the temple, can only smile and endure without making a sound.

Hearing this, Jiang Xian hurriedly walked out of the queue and bowed to the ground.

Xue Jing unfolded the holy decree in his hand and preached loudly: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, today there is a Jinyi Wei Tongzhi Jiang Xian, who went to Liaodong, willing to take risks, and made great contributions to the Nahachu Department of the Yuan Army in Liaodong. He was specially promoted from the Tongzhi of the Sanpin Jinyi Wei to the commander of the Sanpin Jinyi Guard, and commanded the North and South Jinyi Wei Zhenfu Division. Immediately afterwards, he announced that Nai Thorn Wufeng would be made a five-grade official of the Ministry of Rites.

It is a prosperous place in the capital that has not been admired for a long time, and he knows that the officials of this Ministry of Rites are relatively the smallest in real power among the six departments, but they are also the most leisurely, and they can't help but be overjoyed.

When Jiang Xian kowtowed to thank him, his always calm heart couldn't help but feel a burst of joy. It turned out that the commander of the Jinyi Guard, after his boss Mao was executed for involvement in the Hu Weiyong case, he has been empty. Over the years, he has fought very hard with Cao Wenbin, another fellow in charge of the edict, and he wants to compete for this position. At this moment, once he gets the position of commander, this former opponent has become his subordinate, in addition to the "gold" guard led by Li Ling is responsible for the security of the palace, and the Hongwu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang is directly led by him, tens of thousands of Jinyi guards' subordinates in Yingtian City and all the Jinyi guards in various places are firmly in their hands.

The filial piety of the Chinese side and Huang Zicheng and other civil officials heard that Jiang Xian, who was the first time to go to the court, was already the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and they were unconsciously uncomfortable in their hearts, and they all frowned.

Zhu Quan's eyes slowly turned, and he saw that the faces of the civil officials on the opposite side were faintly showing disgust, and it was obvious that he had no good impression of Jiang Xian, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and said: Jiang Xian once intended to assassinate Arutai, the leader of the "Asute" tribe in Liaodong, and provoked Guilichi, Dehuan, and the Allied forces of the three tribes of Arutai to kill each other. In the eyes of these scholars, these assassinations and methods of sowing discord are naturally "dirty things" that cannot be seen in the light, and everyone likes to do things that are above board, but these "dirty jobs" must be done by someone, right? Militaristic affairs are not as simple as you think. Just thinking of this time, not far from the entrance of the main hall, a group of figures wearing Mongolian generals' uniforms came in a queue, and under a closer look, it was Nahachu, Guantong and other high-ranking officials in the Liaodong Yuan army.

Nahachu and the others taught the etiquette to the officials of the Ministry of Rites yesterday, and at this time, they also knelt down and bowed to the ground.

Naha Chubai squinted before he fell down, and touched Zhu Yuanzhang's eagle-like gaze, but what he recalled in his mind was the relationship between him and Zhu Yuanzhang's Red Turban Army in Taiping more than 20 years ago, and after being captured.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the Yuan Court general who was kneeling on the ground, and said with a smile: "Nahachu, you are also old, and since you have returned to my Great Tomorrow Dynasty, I will give you a title, each of you will receive a title, and scatter all over the world to live for a long time." You and other Mongolians can live according to your own tribal habits, and you can rest assured. Speaking of this, Huo Ran stood up, pointed at Nahachu and said in a deep voice: "More than 20 years ago, when I conquered the peace, you would rather die than surrender, and when you wanted to kill Chang Yuchun, I saw that you were loyal to the Yuan Dynasty, so I released you. East$Fang$ .com I said a word to you before you left, do you remember? Are you convinced of me and the Ming Empire today? ”

Nahachu heard Zhu Yuanzhang's words, his heart was violently shocked, and he recalled in his mind what Zhu Yuanzhang had said to him at that time, recalling that in the past, when he was in Dadu, the Yuan Dynasty classified the Han people as the fourth class after the Mongols, Semu people, and Tubo people, and listed them as the fourth class, and they would fight if they wanted to fight, and they would kill if they wanted to kill, recalling that Zhu Yuanzhang said that he could live with the customs of the Mongols, and the sense of honor of the descendants of Mu Huali in his heart had disappeared, and he couldn't help but be discouraged, knocked to the ground, and did not dare to look at Zhu Yuanzhang's gaze, and said slowly: " Your Majesty once told me that those who win hearts and minds will be at peace in the world. Weichen never fully understood in the past, and it was not until this time that he woke up to the fact that the Han people are all over the world, countless, far more than all the Mongolian tribes, even if we have millions of elite soldiers and countless good generals, how can we be the enemy of all the Han people in the world? Weichen was convinced. "Speaking of this, his voice couldn't help but tremble slightly, and his body was rickety, as if he was no longer the Yuan Court Lieutenant who commanded 200,000 soldiers in the past, but just an old man in his last years."

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was standing a few feet away with his back to Nahachu, couldn't help but laugh loudly when he heard this, looking full of pride.

Zhu Quan licked his lips, couldn't help but secretly laughed, and said in his heart: "The old man has been playing with intrigues and tricks all his life, unfathomable, I am afraid when I see it, at this time he laughs like this, not like an emperor, but like an invincible general who commands thousands of troops and horses." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his hand at Xue Jing and motioned for him to read out the holy decree.

Xue Jing showed a respectful face, read out the holy decree, and sealed Nahachu and Guantong as marquis, and offered 2,000 stones a year. The rest of the high-ranking officials of the Yuan Dynasty also had their own titles and salaries, which were more generous than many civil and military generals in the court.

After Na Hachu and the others waited for Xie En to withdraw from the "Fengtian Palace", Zhu Yuanzhang sat back in the dragon chair, his eyes swept over the left and right civil and military officials, and suddenly asked in a deep voice: "Is there a book to play for Aiqing?" ”

Zhu Quan heard him ask like this, knew that it was time to get down to business, and hurriedly collected his thoughts, looked at Zhu Di, the king of Yan, on the left, and said: Zhu Laosi's eyes are also a little dark, and it is estimated that he was similar to me last night, and he didn't sleep until midnight until his homework. I'll listen to his opinion first. ”

At this moment, not far behind Zhu Quan, in the queue of military generals, a thin man walked out of the queue slowly, bowed down and said: "Weichen Jinyi Guard commands Jiang Xian, there is a book." ”

The monarchs and ministers in the Fengtian Palace, from Zhu Yuanzhang and below, saw that this Jiang Xian participated in the deliberations of the early dynasty for the first time, and had just taken over as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and they couldn't help but be stunned, and hundreds of eyes immediately focused on him.

Hongwu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to start discussing the matter of moving the capital, but when he heard this, his face sank slightly, and he said slowly: "What's going on?" Tell me more about it. ”

Jiang Xian said aloud with a respectful face: "Before the court this morning, Weichen received a report from the lieutenant of Jinyiwei's subordinates, and was selected by the Guozijian a few days ago, with Li Xuanting, Zhao Runan and other Guozijian students, who were responsible for investigating the flood situation in neighboring prefectures and counties, they accepted the banquet of the squire, and also accepted some local products. ”

"How can that be?" When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, his face suddenly became cloudy, and he reached out and patted the armrest of the dragon chair heavily, Huo Ran stood up, pacing back and forth.

Although Zhu Quan has seen Zhu Yuanzhang's expression when he is angry, it is the first time he has seen such a violent state under anger, although it is not his own business, he can't help but feel a sense of melancholy in his heart.

Zhu Yuanzhang Huo Ran stopped and turned around, stretched out his hand and lifted the jade belt around his waist, raised his eyebrows, and pointed at Jiang Xian and said coldly: "You immediately lead Jinyiwei's subordinates to escort Li Xuanting, Zhao Runan and other Guozijian students back to Beijing, and interrogate them carefully. When he said the last three words, his words were sonorous, and his face was already full of murder.

When the Chinese military officials heard that these Guozijian students were going to be sentenced to a summary just because they had eaten a meal and received some rural property, they couldn't help but be shocked, which was greatly unexpected. Suddenly, four civil officials stood up in line, wanting to intercede for those students of the Guozijian.

Jiang Xian knew Zhu Yuanzhang's temperament very well, who he wanted to kill, what he wanted to do, that is, the king of heaven Lao Tzu didn't want to stop it, so he didn't care what the civil and military officials in the court wanted to say or do, after bowing down to receive the order, he turned around and went out of the palace to carry out the task of His Majesty the Emperor's dictation.

Zhu Quanyan's back and Jiang Xian's back frowned, and he thought in his heart: What a new official has three fires, and this fire will burn a bunch of people's heads.

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, and before those civil officials had time to kneel on the ground, he raised his left hand to stop them, and said coldly: "Enough, this matter has been decided, and it cannot be discussed again, if anyone intercedes for them, they will receive twenty court rods." As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Zhu Biao, the crown prince, who also wanted to intercede for these Guozijian students, with a pair of unquestionable eyes.

Zhu Biao just heard that these scholars of the Ming Dynasty, the pillars of the court tomorrow, were going to lose their heads for a meal, and they couldn't bear it in their hearts, and they just wanted to plead out, but their eyes touched the murderous gaze of his father Zhu Yuanzhang, and he was unconsciously afraid in his heart, and he couldn't say it anymore.

Zhu Yuanzhang saw his son retreating, sighed secretly in his heart, and said: Biao'er is too generous, and he is afraid that he can only be a gentleman in the future. Although the matter of accepting the banquet may not seem to be big, it is related to the official atmosphere of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China, how can it tolerate the benevolence of women? He knew that at this time, among the hundreds of Chinese military officials in the dynasty, the vast majority of them were loyal to the crown prince Zhu Biao, and if he let his son make a plea, he was afraid that the people in the court would instantly kneel down and obey the people, and he would not be able to pull the Manchu Dynasty out to fight, so he preemptively stopped Zhu Biao's words of intercession.
