Chapter 674: Outstanding Nanjing People (1st Update)
Chongzhen was very happy to get Nanjing.
Nanjing and Beijing are the two systems of the Ming Dynasty, and the configuration of officials and the architectural layout of the capital are basically the same.
That night, Chongzhen entered the Nanjing Imperial Palace.
In order to show the importance of these martial arts people, Chongzhen sent a decree to vacate a palace in Nanjing's imperial palace for these martial arts people to live.
These hundreds of martial arts people led by the Shaolin faction knelt down and kowtowed to thank him, such treatment is absolutely unique. Living in the palace and living with the emperor, isn't this equivalent to the integration of rivers and lakes and temples?
But to live in the capital, you must definitely have the rules of the capital.
Especially these martial arts people, some people have a lot of strange problems.
Wang Chengen, the governor of the inner house, gathered all the heads of the various sects and factions together, and made three chapters of the law. Let them have to understand the rules and abide by the rules, otherwise they will collide with the Son of Heaven, startle the holy driver, or commit the crime of defrauding the king, and they will have to move for food.
These martial arts people are submissive, and the awe of this Ming Emperor Wu was planted on the Wangxiang platform, gratitude and awe are intertwined, and the words of this prince are also like gods.
The next day, that is, the second day of Chongzhen's men and horses occupying Nanjing, Chongzhen ordered to go out to Anmin, and told the military and civilian ministers of Nanjing to state the guilt of Zhu Yousong and Ma Shiying and others.
At the same time, military discipline is strictly enforced.
Originally, Chongzhen led this army, and the discipline was strict. is fundamentally different from those warlords who robbed the army, Chongzhen's generals along the way, including Jinyiwei, no one dared to come nonsense.
These former ministers of Nanming, led by Shi Kefa, knelt in front of Chongzhen to plead guilty.
Chongzhen forgave their sins.
Those who committed the most heinous crimes had already run away with Ma Shiying and Zhu Yousong, and the rest were basically loyal to Daming.
Of course, Chongzhen can't kill old ministers indiscriminately, and those courtiers who are female offenders will be punished after they are convicted of crimes, and of course they can't be one-size-fits-all.
For example, although Shi Kefa, the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department, was guilty of dereliction of duty and negligence, and also participated in the party struggle of the Southern Ming court, this prince was oriented to the Ming Dynasty.
This time, he led tens of thousands of troops to surrender the city, and this kind of merit can definitely atone for his crimes.
Shi Kefa and others saw that the emperor did not hold them accountable, and they were grateful, and everyone in the world knew that Chongzhen was mean and good at settling accounts after the autumn, it seems that the emperor has changed, and after the change of Jiashen, he has become a great emperor and a blessing to the world.
Next, Chongzhen ordered Wang Chengen to reorganize the prisoners.
With the addition of prisoners, the army of King Qin of the Ming Dynasty has now exceeded 300,000 in Nanjing. Together with the prisoners on the Zhenjiang side, including the Nanjing side, there were fifty or sixty thousand people.
Since these tens of thousands of horses were willing to surrender and were willing to make meritorious contributions to the Ming Dynasty, Chongzhen forgave their sins, did not blame them in the past, and allowed them to eat food and serve as soldiers.
But tell them that there is only one such opportunity, and if there is another mutiny, it will be beheaded after seizing it.
According to the previous policy of taking prisoners, the prisoners were re-disrupted in battle, and then the food was issued, and all the silver was distributed to the soldiers, so that the superiors would not withhold them.
These captured generals had not seen any money for months, and some of them did not even have enough to eat. Even if you can send back the silver once in a while, you will be stripped and deducted layer by layer, and in their hands, there will be little pitiful.
The full amount of silver is not delayed or owed, they never thought that seeing the emperor so close to the people and loving the soldiers, tens of thousands of prisoners, all of them followed Chongzhen with all their hearts, and they were all determined to eat food and serve as soldiers for the Ming Dynasty.
During the rest of the soldiers and horses, Chongzhen took the brocade guards to tour the mountains and rivers in Nanjing.
Compared with the two capitals, Chongzhen feels that the south is very distinctive. The simplicity of Nanjing City and the prosperity of the Qinhuai River, as well as the creation of the Purple Mountain, all made Chongzhen linger and praise.
Taking this opportunity, Chongzhen visited Nanjing. In the past, it was just hearsay, especially in later generations, I only heard about the long history and cultural convergence of this bustling big city.
This time it was a personal experience, and I heard and witnessed the outstanding people of Nanjing, and I was deeply touched.
During a visit to the Purple Mountain, one place attracted Chongzhen, and that was the Arctic Pavilion.
This is the observatory of the Southern Ming Dynasty, which was set up by Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, that is, the astronomical and meteorological observatory of later generations.
There is Riguan Peak on it, climb Riguan Peak, the fairy aura is swirling, the distant mountains and near scenes, the mountains and rivers, the whole Nanjing City, take in the bottom of the eye, that feeling, such as in the clouds and fog, fluttering like immortals, it makes people feel refreshed and happy.
However, what attracts Chongzhen the most here is not the wonderful scenery here, but the strong aura of heaven and earth gathered here.
It is very suitable for him to practice and upgrade.
Therefore, after returning to the palace from here, Chongzhen passed a decree to Wang Chengen, and no one should be disturbed without my will, Wang Chengen knew that his emperor was going to practice again.
Wang Chengen took the eunuch maid and a group of brocade guards to serve carefully outside, and no one was allowed to approach the emperor's bedroom.
At the second watch, Chongzhen left the palace as soon as he arrived at the phantom, because he had already been there once during the day, so he was familiar with the road.
Now his body is extremely fast, and it didn't take half an hour for him to appear on the Riguan Peak of the Purple Mountain North Pole Pavilion.
Coming to the summit at night is a different feeling. The surroundings were dark and quiet, but it did not affect Chongzhen's vision in the slightest, almost the same as in the daytime.
This is what Chongzhen wants.
He meditated cross-legged on the platform, took two pills, absorbed the aura of heaven and earth, and began to practice his exercises......
