Zhu Yijun raised his hand and twisted his right eyebrow, and said with a faint smile: "Hao Shen threatens me, and now you Zhu Shenyuan also come to threaten me, am I so good to be threatened?" ”

"Your Majesty, what the minister said is just stating the facts, for the sake of Your Majesty's country."

Zhu Shenyuan replied.

Zhu Yijun smiled coldly, ignored Zhu Shenyuan, and only turned his head to ask King Zhou:

"You say, now in the clan, there are princes like them who don't treat the low-level clans as people, is it because the imperial court used to be too lenient with these powerful clansmen?"

King Zhou got up and replied: "Your Majesty, the strong clan does not remember the friendship of the clan, all because the law is not strict with them, and they are arrogant like this. ”

"Then drag Zhu Shenyuan down and cut it!"

"He colluded with Hu Lu and slaughtered the clan, which can be regarded as a traitor, so like other scholars, Ling Chi will be executed! To warn the king of the world! ”

Zhu Yijun said and looked at Zhu Zaiqi: "Zhu Zaiqi." ”

"The minister is here!"

Zhu Zaiyi replied.

"You personally supervise the execution, and after the execution is over, you will take his head to inspect all the feudal clans in the world, and pass it on to the princes of each feudal clan to know, so that they can see the fate of colluding with foreign Yi and mutilating their own clan!"

"The imperial court can't indulge them anymore, it's already connived to the point that they don't treat their own clan children as human beings!"

"If this continues, how can they be expected to treat the people as human beings?"

"In the future, I am afraid that they will be so selfish that when the country needs them to donate food and donate money to save the society, they will not be willing to contribute, and would rather hope that the enemy will treat them leniently!"

"So, you don't ask for mercy! If the people of the world support them, they will have to set an example for the people of the world. ”

After Zhu Yijun said, Zhu Zaiyi said yes.

After Zhu Shenyuan heard that Zhu Yijun was going to cut him, the whole person was in a state of confusion on the spot, and his mouth was wide open and couldn't close for a long time.

This is a result that he really didn't expect.

"Zhu Yijun!"

Zhu Shenyan didn't come back to his senses until he was dragged down by the Jinyi guard, and then directly shouted Zhu Yijun's name at the mouth, and said:

"If you are so willful, aren't you afraid that you will really force the king of the world to rebel and repeat the mistakes of Jianwen?!"

"What qualifications do you have to teach me to do things?"

"What a self-inflicted cleverness! A person who has grown up in Ningxia City all his life, does he know that there is a sky outside the sky? ”

Zhu Yijun asked, and then waved his hand: "Drag it down!" ”

So, Zhu Shenyuan was dragged out.

Zhu Zaidi walked out with him, and on the same day, he had Zhu Shenyuan tied to the execution rack, and a surgeon was transferred from the army to execute him.

Zhu Shenyuan looked at the surgeon in the pro-army guard holding a knife and walking towards him, the whole person suddenly trembled like chaff, and couldn't help but ask the prisoner Zhu Zaiyan:

"Why does he dare to brutalize the clan like this?!"

"Because you dare."

Zhu Zaiyi replied.

"But he is the emperor, and we can be unruly, and that's because he can forgive us by grace; But he must keep it, otherwise the emperor will probably not be him, doesn't he understand?! ”

Zhu Shenyuan asked.

Zhu Zai sneered: "Your Majesty is not wrong, you are really a frog at the bottom of the well, after listening to a few words of literati, I feel that I can teach Your Majesty to do things, what kind of holy lord will Your Majesty do stupid things like you?" ”

"You must know that there are people in the world who want Your Majesty to obey the rules, and there are also people who want you to obey the rules, not that you can do what Your Majesty wants, you can do what Your Majesty wants, you go to Jiuquan and think carefully about what I say."

After Zhu Zaiyi said, he said: "Execution!" ”

"Ahh

Zhu Shenyan immediately cried out in tears, and he realized how painful the clans that he had killed would be when they were captured and killed.

And after Zhu Shenyuan was delayed, Zhu Zaiyan took his head and began to inspect all the domains in the world.

Zhu Zaiyi first went to the Tang Palace, Nanyang.

After Zhu Shuoxi, the king of Tang, learned from Zhong Huamin, the governor of Henan, that Zhu Zaiyi came to see him by order, he did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly went out of the palace to greet him: "I don't know what will the sect wants to pass on?" ”

"The people of this sect are ordered to pass on the head of Zhu Shenyuan to each domain, and inspect the living conditions of each clan clan, and ask His Royal Highness to cooperate."

Zhu Zaiyi, who served as the right sect member of the Zongren Mansion, replied with a smile after King Tang asked.

When King Tang heard this, his face turned pale with fright, and then he asked:

"So, Zhu Shenyuan has been beheaded?"

"Not only was he beheaded, but he was also executed by Ling Chi."

Zhu Zaiyi replied.

King Tang was even more shocked for a while, and then knelt down in a panic: "Please also ask the sect to tell Your Majesty that the Tang clan will never dare to do something rebellious like Zhu Shenyuan." ”

"Your Majesty sent me, in addition to this, mainly to see if you have harmed the clan of this domain."

Zhu Zaiyi continued at this time.

King Tang hurriedly replied: "The ministers will never dare to harm the clan of this domain, please ask the clan to investigate carefully, this clan has never had a time when the clans have short hair, and they have never been restricted from going out of the city, let alone let them not know the new policies of the imperial court." ”

"Your Highness gets up first."

Zhu Zaiyi first helped King Tang up, and then said: "I will investigate carefully, but now please ask King Tang to open the middle gate first and summon the various clans of your clan to receive the order." ”

King Tang said yes.

And then, King Tang also accepted the order, and he really looked at Zhu Shenyuan's head with the clans in his house.

For King Tang, who had never seen anything bloody, the impact was not small, and the whole person almost fainted on the spot.

Therefore, after Zhu Zaidi inspected the Tang clan and left, the Tang king took the initiative to allocate a part of the income from the field and shop industry as a public property of the feudal state, and used it to help the low-level clans who encountered major changes in the clan to tide over the difficulties and help students.

Meanwhile.

King Tang also hurriedly sent someone to inform the other vassal kings of this situation, telling them to be careful, not because they didn't take the low-level clan seriously and didn't take the people seriously, so they fell to the ground.

As Zhu Zaidi began to inspect the various feudal domains, and the Tang King and others took the initiative to inform them of this situation, many feudal kings had to be more restrained, and they did not mean to raise troops to make it difficult.

Because to tell the truth, without the support of the local governor and the commander-in-chief, who have actual military power, it will be difficult for them to succeed in raising troops.

After all, the current vassal kings have long been cut off from the three guards, and even if they want to rebel, they are easily suppressed by the governor.

But now the governors and bureaucrats in various places also dare not indulge the vassal kings too much because of Zhu Zaitong's inspection of the feudal domains, not to mention, many bureaucrats have also learned about the pro-army guards in Huazhou in the past through the internal channels of their own official and gentry class, and they are all clear that it is no longer as simple as the emperor wants to implement the new rites and implement the new policies, but that many middle and lower-level pro-military guard official schools and the new martial arts group represented by Qi Jiguang and Liu Wei, as well as Wang Xijue and Shen Shixing, are actively doing so, even if the emperor is unwilling. Even if these governors had such thoughts, they would not dare to do nonsense again.

Therefore.

The situation in various parts of the world is really becoming more peaceful and peaceful at a speed that is visible to the naked eye.

Especially in the Xi'an area where Zhu Yijun is now located, it is most obvious.

With the recovery of Xi'an City, after Shen Yi was directly appointed as the prefect of Xi'an by Zhu Yijun, and the deputy envoy Tian Le was appointed as the governor of Shaanxi, the people of the entire Xi'an Mansion began to be returned to the overpaid Ding Yin, and the paid employment model was restarted to hire the people to repair the city wall and assist the army to quell the rebellion.

In addition, many impoverished clans were also relieved and repaid, and the commodity economy gradually re-energized.

Many officials and gentry have also begun to honestly use the people's power by employment, and dare not collude with the government anymore to let the people provide free labor for themselves in the form of forced labor.

"Is the salary set?"

On this day, Bian Xian, a wealthy gentleman in Lantian, asked his son Bian Jun about recruiting people to pay the workers of his family's winery.

Bian Jun replied: "It's settled, according to your instructions, the salary is not the lowest wage in Lantian County." ”

"That's fine, so even if the people in the government find out, it's not good to say that we are enslaving the people."

Bian Xian nodded.

Bian Jun asked: "Father, the son is thinking, if these people are really used to the fact that there is no forced labor in the world, and they need to be paid for their work, will it be difficult to restore the old system in the future?" ”

"You're not wrong, otherwise, why do many officials and gentry have been dragging their feet and unwilling to come according to the holy decree, and still let the people serve?"

"Are you really reluctant to pay that money?"

"I am worried that they will become too lazy, become too lazy, and forget to respect the lowly, which will lead to an increase in the number of lazy people and the people, and even if they want to restore the old system in the future, it will be difficult!"

Bian Xian sighed as he spoke: "Today's saint is really too lenient to the people!" ”

Bian Jun also said with a sad face after hearing this: "It's only hateful, now this is not the meaning of Your Majesty alone, but the meaning of those arrogant generals, if we force Your Majesty to depose those new party ministers, the arrogant generals dare to force Your Majesty to use those new party ministers, in today's domain, I don't know whose world is!" ”

"Naturally, it is Your Majesty's world!"

"As soon as the civil and military are balanced, it seems that anyone can resist, but in the end, it can only be His Majesty's decision, and in fact, no one can resist, which is different from the civil and military forts after which only civil officials can resist."

After Bian Xian said this, he sighed: "It would be nice if there was another big defeat like the civil fort." ”

……

"In order to prevent my relatives from encountering the affairs of the civil fort, the matter of command will be decided by the Duke of Jiguo, and neither I nor the ministers and ministers shall interfere, I will give Qing Shangfang the sword, whoever dares to interfere can be killed first!"

"I only inspect the border towns now and ask about the situation of the border army."

"Therefore, the next step is to be followed by Fuyuan Tian Le and the chief soldier Chen Wenliang and Jinyi Wei Zhang Jingxiu, and Luo Wanhua, the secretary of the ministry, and Liang Menglong, the deputy privy envoy, will stay behind to cooperate with the Duke of Ji Guo."

Zhu Yijun saw that the poor clan was relieved, and the people began to be returned to Ding Yin, and even the former governor of Shaanxi, Dang Xin, was ordered to make up for the deficit because of the conclusive evidence, so he arranged the next matters for Qi Jiguang and others, and then took Zhang Jingxiu, Tian Le, Chen Wenliang and others to inspect the border affairs along the border wall of Shaanxi Town.

The last emperor of the Ming Dynasty who inspected the border affairs was still Zhengde.

Zhengde often patrols the nine sides of the north, and sometimes directly visits the micro-service.

Therefore, in history, the loyalty of the Ming border army to him, the Zhengde Emperor, has increased a lot, so that he can easily dispatch the border troops of various towns to help in the state war, and the border troops of each town have also shown good combat effectiveness.

The reason behind this is that Zhengde forced many officials in the border towns to actively improve the treatment of the border army in order not to let the emperor see that the border preparations were too bad.

As recorded in the "Ming Shilu", Meng Chun, the governor of the Xuanfu of the Zhengde Dynasty, thought that the price of grain in the nine borders was different from that in the mainland, and that the border army only bought grain for seven yuan silver every month, which was not enough to eat at all, so he took the initiative to propose to raise it to eight yuan silver, and was finally approved by Zhengde.

Zhu Yijun is now patrolling the border, which also means this.

He needs to know the true situation of the border army, and he also needs to let the border army know that he, the emperor, cares about them, so that even if the border army is dissatisfied, it is not easy to be provoked by a few uncooperative border ministers to directly betray the court.

"How many people are in the family?"

Zhu Yijun really just walked the streets to visit the situation of every border military household, especially the middle and lower class military households, and took the initiative to ask about their living conditions and family conditions.

On this day, Zhu Yijun sat on the kang in the house of a border army sentry officer named Wu Xu in Ganzhou, a town in Shaanxi Province, and asked about Wu Xu's family situation.

Wu Xu was flattered and replied: "Back to Your Majesty, there are six people in the courtier's family." ”

"It's also considered a thriving person."

Zhu Yijun nodded, said a word, and then asked: "Is the salary and silver enough to buy food at home?" ”

This Wu Xu replied: "It's enough, there can still be surplus." ”

"In recent years, a large amount of overseas grain has been transferred back to China by the imperial court's official grain store, which has caused the price of grain in border towns to fall a lot, and the salary and silver have been rising, so as long as they are fully paid, the soldiers of the official academy below are well fed and even have more money to let their families save some savings to cope with changes."

Tian Le said with a smile on the side at this time.

Zhu Yijun said after hearing this: "In this way, if you don't have enough money, you will still be hungry." ”

Tian Le restrained his expression after hearing this: "What Your Majesty said is true." ”

"Dong Chaoying and others launched a rebellion because Dang Xinke deducted military salaries, how many people in the entire Shaanxi town owed military salaries?"

Zhu Yijun asked as he spoke.

Tian Le replied: "According to the minister's later calculations, in addition to the serious arrears of the governor's standard battalion, there is also the Zheng Qi battalion, the governor of the standard battalion needless to say, the party Xin owes the military salary to be easy to suppress, and the guerrilla of the Zheng Qi battalion Quan Dingyue because he is his brother-in-law and the old department, so he is often short-haired military salary, in order for his brother-in-law to be able to suppress him, now Quan Dingyue has committed suicide in fear of crime, and the remaining Zheng Qi battalion soldiers have not been paid, and the minister has ordered the confiscated Dang Xin to go to Zheng Qiying to make up the arrears because he is his brother-in-law and the old department. ”

After hearing this, Zhu Yijun said: "When the time comes, I will also go to Zheng Qiying and pay them in person." ”

"Yes!"

Three days later, when a battalion of soldiers in Zheng Qi's battalion was digging Guanyin soil and cutting the bark of trees on the slopes of the mountain in groups of three or five, they saw a yellow umbrella cover and a large umbrella coming out of the foot of the mountain.
