Chapter 463: A Long Way to Go
Chapter 463: A Long Way to Go
"Your Majesty, Shanhaiguan Manchurian traitor Nikan leads his troops, please surrender..."
Huang Taiji conferred the head, the Qing Dynasty was dead, and Prince Nikan was so embarrassed that he was trapped in Shanhaiguan, and he was already seeking his own death, so he asked Liu Butang who was besieging Shanhaiguan to surrender.
Whether Nikan is surrendered or not depends on how Chen Cao chooses, although Liu Butang is the prince of the country, he does not dare to overstep his authority without authorization, after all, Nikan's identity is not simple.
"Only kill Nikan, and the rest will be incorporated into the construction corps..."
In addition to the intact palace, the city of Beijing left to Chen Cao was actually a mess in private, and at this moment Chen Cao felt that the huge empire needed extremely satisfying energy to plan, and one person was completely insufficient.
"The emperor of the old Zhu family is really hard."
The first imperial meeting was held in front of Hongwu Gate, that is, outside Tiananmen Square in later generations, and there were many old and young people who stayed in Beijing in the previous dynasty, and most of Chen Cao looked down on them, because this group of people had knelt down in Manchuria, and their minds were not pure, and the Nanjing city team that received Chen Cao's order to the north had not yet fully arrived, so it was a good choice to let these old and young people become microphones.
"Since the establishment of the Ming Dynasty by Emperor Hongwu, he chose to rule the world with scholars, which also made Confucianism shine in my Ming Dynasty, and the identity of a scholar is also noble;"
"Since my accession to the throne in Nanjing, I have issued several important edicts, one of which is the abolition of the traditional status of Confucianism in this dynasty..."
The old and young people at the bottom looked at each other one by one, what does this mean?
After the abolition of Confucianism, wouldn't it be that the fame and identity of scholars would be useless?
Of course, their worries are still about the benefits of being Confucian apprentices.
"I said that Confucianism is a very good knowledge for teaching and educating people, but it just can't be in politics.
"His generation didn't produce, and the champion of the previous dynasty couldn't even tell the grains, so what was the use? Expecting this group of people to rule the world, wouldn't it push my Ming Dynasty into the fire pit again? ”
"It is because I announce today that Confucian learning is used to enlighten the past and the next, and to set up four schools in the world: primary, secondary, high school, and university, with 6 years of primary school and 3 years of middle school, and all students are exempt from tuition and miscellaneous fees, and if there are really poor students, they can be managed by the school, and the food expenses are settled by the imperial court, so I call this education a 'nine-year compulsory education', and all children in our Chinese territory must enter school after they reach the age of six..."
"As for Confucian enlightenment, I also think that from the age of four, you need to remember that if the youth is strong, China will be strong, and the education of children is indispensable, so I feel that in addition to the nine-year compulsory education, the cost of enlightenment education at all levels in the territory of China is borne by the imperial court, and if the governments at all levels shirk the blame, I will definitely not spare it, and this enlightenment education is called a preschool school..."
"Your Majesty..."
"The blessing of the people of the Ming Dynasty..."
"Long live Your Majesty..."
This is a great thing, and it is a good thing for the people, because the people gathered outside the Hongwu Gate spontaneously shouted one by one after hearing these words.
"Second, it is the exemption of the field, the taxes of the past dynasties are the last straw that crushed the people, I deeply think so, doing this, although it is the cake of the landlords in the world, but I think that the people's life is rich, is the foundation of a country's strength, not only rich part of the people, is this part of the people, but also insatiable, in the end, it has become the moth of the country, the death of the country is here, it is precisely because there are more such people, will give rebellion an opportunity."
"It is imperative to exempt the land from endowment, not a few of you have the final say, but the people of the whole of China have the final say, I want to see how many unknown and stubborn people want to keep their hundred, thousand, and ten thousand acres of land and give up their lives before such a general trend."
The people present basically knew that the local landlords in Suzhou and Hangzhou fought extremely fiercely, and those rich families who would rather keep their fields than hand over their fields were left with only a dead end in the end.
Or maybe the whole family is unlucky.
"Each household has 3 acres of land, each household is divided into one point of self-reserved land according to the mouth, the people's fields can be hereditary, 2 acres of 3 acres of land can be bought and sold freely, and self-reserved land is not allowed to be bought and sold, if there is no heir to Toda, it should be nationalized, and I have re-planned and measured the field, plus there is no need to pay taxes in the future, and there is no need to serve in the conscription, and the income is your own thing, presumably there will be no more starvation in the world..."
This is also a benevolent government, and even when the history books of later generations describe the policy of the Shengwu Emperor Chen Cao Juntian to exempt from endowment, they are called the 'Shengwu New Deal'...
"The whole people should be invested in large-scale production and construction, but also for the people to live and work in peace and contentment, of course, I still say that the Chen royal family, in the end, will not need to be supported by the whole Chinese people, this matter, I should be established as the ancestor of the Chen royal family, if the descendants of the future generations go against my will, the people of the whole world will supervise it."
"One person joins the army, the whole family is glorious, the current soldiers are not the guards of the past, in the future, I will carry out the conscription system in the Ming Dynasty, and all the details will be announced in the provinces, governments, counties, and cities..."
After the conscription system was opened, it was not compulsory military service, and it was not possible to be a soldier with crooked melons and cracked dates, and the selection of its winners was the same as that of later generations.
Chen Cao felt that his mouth was on fire, and after taking a sip of herbal tea, he instantly felt a lot more comfortable: "Remember clearly, the Ming Dynasty is not the Ming of one person, but the Ming of the whole Chinese people, and I am not the emperor of the people of the world, but the emperor of China..."
Once the republican system is opened, the future Chen emperors may be beheaded like Louis XVI of France, and their constitutional monarchy is imperfect, only the British Empire is the best target for reference, and finally become the emperor of Thailand, the people support it, is the best choice for the Chen royal family.
In this case, Chen Cao will publish a book of "Holy Ancestor Teachings" to teach the Chen emperors of later generations.
Yes, Chen Cao even thought of his own nickname----- Emperor Ming Holy Ancestor Wu
......
Hongwumen's precepts raised Chen Cao to a perfect height in the hearts of the people, and he believed that in the near future, with the spread of these old and young people stranded in the capital, he would definitely become an active supporter of the people all over the world.
Whoever dares to oppose the emperor is against us and will be killed...
After thinking about this for a while, Zhao Xin entered the Dongnuan Pavilion: "The emperor, all the departments in Nanjing, except for the people left behind, have all arrived in Tongzhou, and the queen's car is also on the way to Beijing from Tongzhou. ”
"Hmm..."Thinking of the upcoming reunion of the concubine's family, Chen Cao was overjoyed, but thinking that there were still Bumu Butai and the concubines of Huang Taiji, Chen Cao smiled and said, "Zhao Xin, let me ask you a question." ”
"The emperor is worried about those people in Horqin?"
"Yo..."Chen Cao looked sideways: "Are you really the roundworm in my stomach?" ”
"The minister knows that the queen mother is already right... Hehe, so, the minister thought that if they lived in the palace permanently, I was afraid that it would make Niangniang angry. ”
Thinking that Li Xiang was furious about Zhou's pregnancy and imminent delivery, Chen Cao shuddered, Li Xiang was rarely angry, but what made her furious was always that Zhou had assassinated Chen Cao, and this kind of woman couldn't stay.
"What do you think?"
"The minister thinks that it is most appropriate to place them in the Beihai Garden."
Hiss...
Chen Cao suddenly thought of the palaces of the Summer Palace and the Old Summer Palace, and then thought of Zhu Youxiao playing with the Hakka family in Yingtai, so he nodded: "You are smart, you really reminded me, by the way, I heard that my daughter-in-law is pregnant?" ”
Zhao Xin smiled: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, the emperor and grandson who will be able to rejoice soon..."
Although Chen Cao ordered a woman to marry at eighteen, after all, the royal family is different from ordinary people, and they can only turn a blind eye.
"No, I have to congratulate the Duke of Chu Guogong, you are..."
"Your Majesty, hehe..."
"Your Zhao family should be the richest family in the world after a hundred years, after all, it is the hereditary Duke of Chu, and the daughter is the future queen, you kid really have luck..."
"The emperor carries love, the emperor carries love..."
......
In the Yingtai Palace, Chen Cao was on the Nanmu desk where Zhu Youxiao and the Hakka family were happy to do personal work with Da Yu'er, and at the last moment, the palace maid's soft call sounded outside the door: "Your Majesty, there is a letter from Yingzhou Waguo, please meet Your Majesty..."
Well...
With a muffled snort, Chen Cao breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Da Yu'er, who was cleaning himself, and said in a long voice: "Call someone..."
"Your Majesty, Uncle Xinyang has sent a military report from Yingzhou, saying that the Toyotomi clan and Tokugawa may break out in the last decisive battle this year."
Squeak
Chen Cao opened the door of the palace: "Immediately convene the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, and I want the military to discuss..."
The Qianqing Palace was very noisy, and the princes who participated in the meeting were red-faced and red-eared, and they all had to fight, Chen Cao saw it in his eyes, and his heart was refreshed, and it was a good thing for the country to fight.
"Ahem..."
Chen Cao coughed, and then looked at the people who were slowly quieting down: "Fu Yingxing is in Fangjin, no, Daming City has gathered more than 30,000 exiled warriors, trained and reorganized, and can already fight, since the time has come to conquer the Japanese, I can't let it go." ”
The generals looked at Chen Cao one by one, the reason is very simple, the use of the most advanced artillery and firearms to fight the Japanese country is simply like an adult beating a child, it is only a matter of time, and this is simply the credit of sending it to the door.
Destroy the country...
Who doesn't want to
Chen Cao looked around, and then said: "In this expedition, I decided to order Song Che, the Duke of Qin, as the commander-in-chief, and Cao Wenzhao and Qi Xianyun as the deputy commanders-in-chief, to lead the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th group armies to go on the expedition, and the three fleets will cooperate with the troop carriers to transport them. ”
Song Che stepped forward: "Minister Song Che commands..."
Cao Wenzhao and Qi Xianyun, who heard the roll call, were stunned, but then they were overjoyed, this was a great achievement: "The ministers and other leaders are ordered..."
There are no five main forces to accompany him, and anyone with a discerning eye knows that this time it is the new army training, and the mature and steady Song Che is the best candidate, of course, there is also a Tang Kainian...
"Don't be discouraged, I haven't finished my words yet," Chen Cao knocked on the table: "Jiaozhi has been my Chinese territory since ancient times, after Zhang Fu took it, he was given up by Zhu Zhanji, and it is not a good thing for me to think day and night, so I ordered Tang Kainian to be the commander-in-chief, Han Xianchu and Li Xiukuan as the deputy commanders-in-chief, and led the 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th group armies to march south. ”
"The Decree of Thanksgiving..."
