Jin Lian stood up and said with a glance: "Your Majesty, the conclusion of the household ministry is that Xizhimen and Yexian will fight with the main force, and they should be given preferential pensions, and each person and each household will be promoted by two taels." ”

"The first-level commanders who died in battle received a pension of ten taels of silver per household, and the thousand who died in battle received a pension of eight taels per household, a total of six taels, a total of five taels per hundred, and three taels of soldiers."

"More than 600 soldiers of Xizhimen survived, and each household was awarded a plaque to prove their merits."

A speech official immediately stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the minister is opposed!" ”

"Even if Xizhimen fights with the main force first, aren't the soldiers guarding the rest of the Jingshi gates fighting against Warat with their lives?"

"If you only give preferential compensation based on the proportion of the killed, what should the rest of the soldiers think, Your Majesty's move will definitely chill the hearts of the soldiers in the world!"

Zhu Di looked at this official and laughed angrily.

Look at these good civil officials of mine, the upper lip and the lower lip touch like this, open and close the mouth full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, as if he went into battle to kill the enemy.

In fact, Zhu Di understands that this one who jumped out is really as he said, for the sake of others?

Impossible.

Even if he agrees with this statement, there will be other statements, the purpose is not for the sake of other goalkeepers as stated in the words, but just for the sake of his face.

"Have you ever been on the battlefield?"

"I haven't."

"Have you been to the barracks?"

Seeing that the official shook his head when he asked, Zhu Di couldn't help but sneer: "Tell me about you, you don't know anything about the army, but you are pretending to be the master of the soldiers here?" ”

"I've been to the barracks, I've been to the battlefield, and I know what soldiers need."

Zhu Di looked directly at the official and said, "Do you think what they want is this pension of two taels of silver per household?" Wrong, very wrong. ”

"What they want is the attitude of the imperial court towards them desperately defending the Beijing Division, and this time I want to give the soldiers of the whole world an attitude."

"Their exploits will not be forgotten by the imperial court!"

Then, without waiting for the official to say more, Zhu Di turned his head and said: "The script of the household department is approved, let's delegate it to implementation, what about the opinion of the cabinet?" ”

Wang Zhi said: "The minister has no objection. ”

The second assistant Chen Xun also said: "The minister thinks that if you give Xizhimen preferential pension, it is better to build a praise workshop outside Xizhimen and engrave the names of the surviving soldiers, so that it can inspire the soldiers of the world." ”

Zhu Di sat down and thought about it.

"And what about those who die in battle, they don't deserve to have their names engraved?"

Chen Xun also seemed to realize that there was a loophole in his words, so he immediately admitted his mistake, bowed down and said, "The minister was negligent, Your Majesty forgives you." ”

"It's okay, that's a good idea." Zhu Di crossed his waist and paced back and forth on the imperial steps, and he didn't know how long he hadn't sat on the dragon chair.

"I see, there is no need for Baogongfang, build a martial temple?"

As he spoke, Zhu Di suddenly looked to the side and said, "What about the opinion of the Ministry of Industry?" ”

Everyone in the Ministry of Industry immediately began to discuss.

"Your Majesty, there are already martial temples in Nanjing, and there are martial temples built in various places, if Your Majesty means to sacrifice the soldiers who died in battle, it should not be called a martial temple."

"What's that called?" Zhu Di sat back.

"It should be called the Temple of Divine Soldiers, the Temple of Divine Generals." The Ministry of Industry official said.

Zhu Di laughed and said: "Forget it, I can't think of this matter, your Ministry of Industry will say whether there is any difficulty, as for the name and system, this is the result of the discussion of your ministry." ”

"When the time comes, just present it to the Qianqing Palace."

There was another discussion among the people in the Ministry of Works.

Strictly speaking, Jiang Yuan, the current Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, is the first person to echo Zhu Qiyu in the real sense.

When Xu Hui proposed to move the capital, the first to reprimand him was Yu Qian, but the first to focus on Zhu Qiyu was Jiang Yuan.

At that time, Jiang Yuan was the first to stand up and reprimand Xu Hui, and let Zhu Qiyu, who was already in charge of the country, preside over the overall situation, but Yu Qian only reprimanded Xu Hui at that time.

In the first year of Jingtai, Jiang Yuan was promoted to the secretary of the Ministry of Industry for his military efforts to counsel Deshengmen and defend the Beijing Division, so he was also a member of the Jingtai Party.

Jiang Yuan naturally would not object to the emperor's idea of winning over the army, he said: "The Ministry of Industry has an old treasury in Shifang, west of the city, which has not been used for a long time. ”

"The minister thought that this piece of stone workshop could be demolished, stone and wood materials could be transported from other places, and an area could be demarcated to build a sacrificial workshop."

"In this way, it can be regarded as Your Majesty's meritorious work."

Zhu Di laughed: "Haha, what I see is not a thousand years of merit, but for the sake of the soldiers defending the city, I can't let them die in vain, and I can't let the living forget this defense battle." ”

"Since the Ministry of Industry and the Cabinet have no opinions, let's do so, decentralize the discussion, and submit the results to the Qianqing Palace as soon as possible for me to see."

"The ministers obey." Everyone said.

Cao Jixiang shouted in a loud voice: "Scatter the dynasty!" ”

......

After the court meeting, Zhu Di returned to the Qianqing Palace.

saw that Wang Cheng was waiting for him.

Seeing Zhu Di coming back, Wang Cheng immediately stepped forward and said with a smile: "Master, it's been good lately." ”

"It's good, why are you back, don't you have much business in the East Factory?" Zhu Di passed by him, walked to the back of the imperial eucalyptus, sat down and asked with interest.

Wang Cheng came to Zhu Di's back familiarly, and said while pinching his shoulders: "The slave maid is here, first, to visit the emperor, and second, to ask the emperor to play." ”

"Please play?" Zhu Di was stunned for a moment, and then said cheerfully: "If there is anything, you can just say it, and please play what else you want to talk about." ”

"Well, that's what the slave said." Wang Cheng said: "The slave maid thinks that this palace is not very safe, and the slave maid wants to let Dongchang Fanzi sift through the palace." ”

"Some people of unknown origin have all been cleared, and those former court-show girls in Chuxiu Palace have also given them money to go home."

"Stay in Jingshi, think about something useless all day long, sooner or later there will be changes."

"What's the matter, what did Dongchang find?" Zhu Di's face changed slightly, motioned for others to go out, and said, "If you have something to say, I will listen." ”

Wang Cheng hurriedly knelt down and said, "Master, the slave maid has no intention of getting involved in politics, but the concubines who were left in the East Sixth Palace by the former Emperor Taishang are not right-minded. ”

"What's wrong?" Zhu Di was stunned.

Wang Cheng said: "Some of the slaves and maids in Dongchang have worked in the inner court, and I heard them say that Concubine Wanchen and Concubine Zhou Guifei of the East Sixth Palace have been in close contact with the queen mother recently. ”

"The slave maid only asked the master one sentence, how is the queen's recent phoenix body?"

"What do you mean?"

Zhu Di felt more and more that something was wrong, and it was also said that these two women had been talking to the queen recently, and Zhu Di hadn't been back to the harem for a while.

Wang Cheng prostrate on the ground and said in a hurry: "Master, you better go to Kunning Palace as soon as possible to have a look!" ”

"Some words, coming out of the mouth of the slave maid, are involved in politics, the slave and maid don't want to learn from that Wang Zhen, Ye Tianzong is wise, and he will definitely be able to find clues when he goes to Kunning Palace."

"If you come back and still ask, the slave knows everything!"

Zhu Di got up, looked at him coldly, turned around and said:

"I want to see if it's you, the commander of the East Factory, who is making flowers, or the second concubine Zhou Wan is making waves, no matter who it is, I want him to look good!"

"Swing, Kunning Palace!"
