Chapter 290: Chinese New Year's Eve Banquet, Hot Pot Last Year, Barbecue This Year!

Full Speed Er sent troops to attack Chen You's back road.

But I found that I went out from Turpan and ran all the way to the east, but I couldn't see anyone in sight after running for hundreds of miles.

Turpan, which was originally rich, has become uninhabited for thousands of miles.

Moreover, the Ming army was still driving the people to attack the city and burning pastures along the way, so that the fleeing herdsmen would easily starve to death in winter.

In the camp of the Ming army, Chen You and Kou Shen were also discussing.

The poisonous plan to burn the grassland was conceived by Kou Shen.

"It's getting cold, we can annex Turpan at the earliest, and we will have to wait until next year."

"Let those herdsmen cause trouble to the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, and it will not be in vain for us to send troops."

If there were more cavalry, Kou Shen wanted to send cavalry south and turn the whole of Turpan upside down.

After seeing the prudence of Man Suer, it is impossible to annex Turpan in a war, this is a tug-of-war, and it is impatient.

"It's a pity." Chen You wants to fight the marquis.

Kou Shen glanced at him: "Report to the court, if you want to annex Turpan, I'm afraid there will be a battle to fight, take your time." ”

"At least we know that the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, although it is crumbling, it is not weak, and this cavalry is stronger than our Ming cavalry."

"We are also ready at any time, and we will withdraw to Gansu as soon as the first snow falls."

Chen You frowned: "Don't go back to Hami?" ”

Kou Shen spread his hands: "We only brought rations for the soldiers, how can we have food to support the refugees?" ”

"This huge Hami, if we quit, won't it be occupied by the people of Turpan?" Chen You felt that this was the fat on the side of his mouth.

"They have taken advantage of the better, these Hami people are waiting to be fed, Turpan annexed Hami, and they have to take care of the Hami people."

Kou Shen smiled evilly: "This official wishes that they would occupy Hami, so he is worried that he will not be fooled." ”

Chen You understood.

On the way back, pull all the good things back to Suzhou and Xining, and let the Hami people fend for themselves.

At the beginning of spring next year, the supplies will be sufficient, and the land of Hami will be recovered.

If it can't be recovered, it will be burned again, and if it can't be recovered the year after tomorrow, it will continue to be burned until the Eastern Chagatai Khanate is dragged to death.

"It's another layer of credit." Chen You sighed, but this is the best result.

The Ming army was going to withdraw.

The cattle and sheep caught, the booty, etc., still have to be brought back to the Ming Dynasty.

Transit to the center.

It's mid-November.

Zhu Qiyu Longyan Dayue: "Spread the decree, seal Chen You as the Bo of Shazhou, give a world coupon, and grant Kou Shen the prince Shaobao, set up a statue for Chen You and Kou Shen in Hami City, and after a hundred years, build a temple to worship and show his contribution to recovering Hami!" ”

"Then pass on the decree, Hami will be included in Gansu, the territory of Gansu Province will be formally formed, Gansu and Ningxia will be split, Kou Shen will be the governor of Gansu, and Yuanjie will be promoted to the governor of Ningxia."

"Shenying and Tao Jin have both made great contributions, and they will be promoted to one level, and they will be rewarded according to the list of merits, and I will give an additional bronze talisman to the entire army of the Ningxia Army!"

"It turns out that Turpan is under full speed control."

Da Ming knew very little about Turpan, and he thought that it was given to his relatives in the distant branches, and he didn't want to be the eldest son of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, the future Great Khan, sitting in Turpan.

It shows that Turpan is very important, and the Eastern Chagatai Khanate does not want to give it up.

Then Da Ming wants it even more.

"Then pass the decree, from the Hami country, select 30,000 women, give 30,000 Ningxia troops, those who have no wives are wives, those who have wives are equal wives, and their sons have the right to inherit the family business, if the women have children, they will belong to the Ningxia military generals, and let them be raised."

"Split the Ningxia Army, pick out 15,000 people, and those who are willing to stay in Gansu will be changed to the Gansu Army, and the land will be divided in Gansu, according to the amount of military merits, women and children will be given land, and those who fight for me are all meritorious ministers, and I will not treat them lightly."

"Then from the Hami country, select 20,000 Hami prisoners and distribute them to the Gansu army as slaves."

"Then pass the decree to Kou Shen, and when I return to the teacher, I will settle in the Ma Wanhu Mansion of Dasi and ask Xuansi, are you willing to cut the land? Or are you willing to cut off your head? ”

Zhu Qiyu plans to use the method of dividing the land with military merit to stimulate the people's desire to fight.

Hu Wenlin wrote quickly, and then sent it to the cabinet.

Soon, Yao Kui and Wang Fu came in a hurry.

"Your Majesty, you are going to repeat the mistakes of the tyrannical Qin!" Yao Kui said angrily, the military merit knighthood has been swept into the historical garbage heap.

Why has there been no military rebellion since the Song Dynasty?

Because of the military merit knighthood was swept into the dustbin of history, this thing is too evil.

Look at Meng Yuan, in the final analysis, it is a military merit knight, look at what kind of dog brains they have become, there will not be a day to stop.

Only by abolishing the military merit knighthood system can the road of the warriors be cut off and the root of the rebellion can be eliminated.

Although looking at it now, these soldiers who have made fiefdoms because of merit are not successful, but what about a hundred years later? These soldiers are the local family of soldiers, they have money, food and soldiers, what will they do?

The Anshi Rebellion is close at hand!

"Your Majesty, do you know why Emperor Taizu didn't use military merits to be knighted?" Yao Kui asked.

Because at that time, the civilian clique was not large enough.

Zhu Qiyu needs to use the military merit group to balance the civilian group.

"Your Majesty!"

Yao Kui kowtowed heavily: "The civil officials are in chaos, but Your Majesty can be as stable as Mount Tai, if the martial arts are in chaos, what is the surname in the world is not necessarily!" ”

Wang Fu also said seriously: "Your Majesty, Weichen is also a member of the civil officials, even if Weichen is a cabinet minister, even if he is a powerful minister, you can kill Weichen with a holy decree!" ”

"But the military generals are in charge, no matter how many holy decrees you preach, it will have no effect, but not everyone is Yue Wumu!"

"The Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, and the five dynasties at the end of the Tang Dynasty were all chaotic caused by the martial arts in power."

"Any possibility of a warrior taking power must be eliminated! Have to! ”

Wang Fu kowtowed desperately, his eyes split.

Zhu Qiyu really thought about the situation simply.

Which one of Taizu or Taizong is not a masterpiece?

They didn't adopt this method, and even kept suppressing the status of the soldiers, and even demolished the martial temple, because they were worried that the martial arts would mess up the government and repeat the disaster of the feudal town.

Moreover, this Hami is a newly acquired land, and the land is full of foreign races, and if it is said to be a rebellion, it will be a rebellion.

When the time comes, it will not be certain who these soldiers will be loyal to.

"Two Aiqing, please, I take it for granted."

Zhu Qiyu also has to think about it.

When he was alive, he was still able to suppress these arrogant soldiers, but after he died, his son might not be able to control it!

In other words, it must be uncontrollable.

He doesn't have the ability of Taizu, he has the ability to kill whoever he wants, and he still has it now, because these generals are not in the climate, if he is allowed to become bigger, he may not be able to kill him, but he can't learn from Li Longji.

Therefore, he will not leave a mess for his children and grandchildren.

Yao Kui breathed a sigh of relief, the emperor was still very sensible.

"Tell me, two, how to seal the reward? I want to treat my soldiers well and make them loyal to the king. Zhu Qiyu said.

Wang Fu frowned slightly: "Your Majesty removes the military merits, and the rest is just like your holy decree." ”

Yao Kui is also worried about this.

The military general is the person the emperor should guard against the most.

On the issue of military generals, the interests of the emperor and civil officials were identical.

"I want to use military merit to encourage soldiers, work hard for the court, become a strong army, and win every battle." Zhu Qiyu said what was in his heart.

The corners of Yao Kui's mouth curled: "Your Majesty, the old minister said something arrogant, if the soldiers win a hundred battles, will you sleep peacefully?" ”

Suddenly, Zhu Qiyu's pupils shrank!

Are you speculating about the heart of the emperor?

In an instant, he smiled bitterly again: "Yao Qing knows my heart very well." ”

Yao Kui knelt on the ground: "The old minister didn't dare to trespass, but he also experienced the Yongle Dynasty, do you know that if there is no Emperor Taizong's personal expedition, it will be a hundred defeats, do you know the reason?" ”

No wonder if you look at Taizong's actual record, you will find that in the Yongle Dynasty, the most capable person is Taizong, and everyone else is scum.

Not really.

But no one dares to trespass, and the generals have to protect themselves, if they win a hundred battles, will the emperor let him go? The example of blue jade, isn't it still vigilant?

Zhu Qiyu does not have the ability of Emperor Taizong to fight, nor does he have sons like King Han and King Zhao, nor does he have a son like Emperor Renzong who is good at governing the country.

If you use it without authorization, it is very likely that you will shoot yourself in the foot.

Yao Kui saw that the emperor was thinking, and said slowly: "Let's just say that the Hongwu Dynasty, the first general, is it really the king of Zhongshan?" ”

No, it's Emperor Taizu!

Why are the people in Emperor Taizu's hometown all famous generals, naturally it is Taizu's ability to bring it well and turn waste into treasure.

This is also why Taizu dares to kill anyone, because he has trained his son so well, fighting wars and governing the country, all of them are talents.

Emperor Taizu can make everyone around him become a famous general and a famous minister, because he is the most bullish person.

Can you Zhu Qiyu do it?

History is eternal, and there are only a few people who can do it.

"I am self-aware, what does this have to do with my desire to train strong soldiers?" Zhu Qiyu asked again.

"Your Majesty, you are the rebirth of the two holy monarchs of Taizu and Taizong!"

Yao Kui patted his ass and said: "Maxima often exists, but Bole does not often have." ”

"As long as you can be good at employing people, then all the talents in the world will be used for you."

"Brilliant and bright, standing tall."

"You don't have to worry about no talents, no strong troops, as long as you can speak widely, select and use talents, and you can win any war."

"The so-called strong army is nothing but a paradox."

"Look at the strong soldiers who followed Emperor Taizu to fight the world, and when it came to the Jingjing period, hundreds of thousands of people couldn't defeat Emperor Taizong."

This shows that employing people is very important.

Soldiers have all kinds of shortcomings, in the hands of famous generals who can use soldiers, it is a strong army, and in the hands of waste who talk about soldiers on paper, it is all garbage.

"And, is it really good to have strong soldiers?"

After Yao Kui finished speaking, he kowtowed heavily.

The birth of too many military merit families will inevitably cause the rebellion of the six towns and repeat the Anshi rebellion.

His meaning is very simple, as long as the emperor is willing to use people, then the world will give birth to famous generals, famous ministers, and strong soldiers.

Strong soldiers are not trained, but come up with the emperor.

Moreover, it is not possible to train strong soldiers.

If the soldiers are strong, there will be many careerists, and the throne will be unstable.

Zhu Qiyu listened: "Then double the reward, what do you think?" ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Goods will always be spent.

The reason why soldiers are strong is because they are poor.

When the soldiers get rich, they are all wasted.

This is the human heart.

Moreover, those merchants in the world will sell all kinds of goods to the soldiers, and the money that the soldiers sell their lives in exchange for will be earned into the merchants' pockets.

This is also the human heart.

"Yao Qing, Wang Qing, you are all my ministers."

Zhu Qiyu invited Yao Kui to sit down and served tea: "Now there are only three people in charge of the cabinet, which is very busy, Wang Hong and Ye Sheng are estimated to return to Beijing next year, and I feel that it is time to add one person to the cabinet." ”

The cabinet was supposed to be seven.

But Zhu Qiyu has always used six people, and there are still a few people who are not in Beijing.

Yao Kui understood what the emperor meant, this was to transfer Peng Shi back to Beijing.

When Jingtai was eight years old, the emperor opened up to Peng Shi, did not kill him, and sent him to Zhejiang to avoid the limelight.

Jin Zhong purged Jiangxi again and found that the Peng Shi family was not involved in maritime commerce, which made the emperor's impression of him better.

"The old minister recommended Peng Shi......" Yao Kui said that Peng Shi had many benefits.

"Is he qualified enough?" Zhu Qiyu asked.

Yao Kui knew that his recommendation was very correct, because the emperor did not refuse, but asked for qualifications, indicating that he was also the emperor's candidate.

"Back to Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that Peng Shi's qualifications are sufficient."

Zhu Qiyu really wants to use Peng Shi, Peng Shi is in the place, and he is really talented.

Moreover, the center kept sending people to supervise the place, resulting in the emptiness of the center, and such a famous minister was indeed needed to return to the court to assist.

"Then use Peng Shi."

There is another reason for Peng Shi, his younger brother Peng Shao, who was in Jingtai Eighth Year High School, has now done a remarkable job in Hanlin Academy.

The holy decree was sent to Zhejiang, and when Peng Shi saw the holy decree, the whole person was stupid, and the emperor used him regardless of his previous suspicions?

And promoted him and went directly to the cabinet?

After thanking the holy decree, he packed up his things and immediately entered Beijing.

Meanwhile.

On the seventh day of December, Bien Yong entered Siam.

On December 19, he entered the capital city of Ayuthaya, which translates to Ayutthaya, to meet the king of Siam.

Now it is the most magnificent and powerful dynasty in the history of Siam, the Ayutthaya Dynasty, which is called the Ayutthaya Dynasty in the Ming translation.

The Ayutthaya Dynasty, established in the eleventh year of the Yuan Dynasty, was only a few years younger than the Ming Dynasty and was at the peak of the dynasty.

Now in power is the ninth king, Polonmo Delelogana.

His real name is La Meixuan, and he is a famous virtuous monarch of the Ayutthaya Dynasty.

He maintained good trade relations with the Ming Dynasty, and a large amount of silk and porcelain was transported overland to Siam, which was sold to Western merchants at high prices to earn the difference.

So, Benyong entered the big city and entered the splendid royal palace, Ayudea.

Bian Yong was warmly received by the King of Siam, and at night he was served by the Siamese beauties to the pain of his back.

After the two sides submitted their credentials, Bian Yong asked the King of Siam to contact the Xiyi merchants in Siam.

Naturally, Lamexuan did not object, Siam was strategically located and dealt with Xiyi merchants all year round.

But the Siamese are not good at business.

For this often suffers.

The King of Siam wrote a secret song and complained to the Emperor of the Celestial Empire, asking the Celestial Empire to allocate a group of merchants to do business for Siam.

Naturally, it was rejected by the Emperor of the Celestial Empire.

In fact, Siam is not only not good at business, but also not good at war, and not good at farming.

And in this strange place in the Indochina Peninsula, it is actually the most powerful dynasty.

However, Siam is relatively open, unlike the Ming Dynasty, which is closed to the rest of the country, they are allowed to do business, and their relationship with Xiyi is also relatively good.

But they don't produce silk, porcelain, they are just porters of silk and porcelain.

The Ming Dynasty closed the country, and people did not sell it.

Siam sells, but Siam does not produce and will not produce, so the king of Siam sent an envoy to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty, deceive the Ming Dynasty, and take it back and sell it himself.

This hand is wonderful.

Emperor Daming also knew, but these rewards were just a leg hair plucked by Daming, how could he care?

But Zhu Qiyu was not happy, so he cut off trade.

As a result, the king of Siam sent letters to the emperor every day, and sent envoys to the Ming Dynasty, asking the Ming to give silk, porcelain and other things.

"Your Excellency, the soldiers you brought are the strong soldiers of the Ming Dynasty to defeat the Warat and Tatars?"

The king of Siam was well-informed, although he did not know what level of Warat and Tatar was, but they knew the horror of the Mongols, so they thought that Warat and Tatar were very strong.

Of course, he was not worried, it was impossible for Mongolia, which was as strong as Mongolia back then, to reach Siam through countless miasma forests.

Da Ming doesn't have this ability.

So unlike Annam's submission, the King of Siam treated Bien Yong more with a level view.

This made Bian Yong very uncomfortable.

I am an envoy of the kingdom, how dare you look at me?

Wait, sooner or later, your kingdom will be destroyed!

"Returning to His Royal Highness the King, the soldiers brought by the foreign ministers are just temporary recruits, not the soldiers of the Northern Sweep."

As soon as she heard this, La Meixuan felt that Bian Yong was bragging, and planned to hold a banquet to let the Siamese elite soldiers fight with the Ming elite soldiers.

Bian Yong naturally agreed.

The 5,000 men brought in were to be familiar with the local terrain and war conditions, and if they could not train the male soldiers on their own, they would have to fight with the local soldiers as much as they could.

In the royal capital of Siam, there were many Xiyi merchants.

Xiyi and Siam have friendly relations, friendship from ancient times to the present, which is also the reason why Asia is the only country that has not been invaded.

There are all kinds of European and Central Asian merchants such as big cannibals, Franc machine people, red hairy fans, etc., and almost all the world's merchants, gathered in the royal capital of Siam.

Bian Yong was learning the language of the Buddha machine all the way, and the emperor sent several eunuchs from the palace to teach the delegation to learn the language.

Bian Yong was already able to communicate normally with the Franc machine.

However, the Francophone didn't understand what he was talking about, and after understanding, he found out that the Franco-Robot in Siam was Portuguese.

What I met in Daming was a Spaniard.

Because of their similar appearance, they are collectively called Franc Machine People by the Ming Dynasty, but they are actually people from two countries.

Bian Yong, Pan Benyu and Francois communicated for a long time before they could clearly distinguish the difference between the Spaniards and the Portuguese.

And Hongmaofan is not from the same country, but from the Netherlands and Italians.

In the translation of the Ming Dynasty, the Dutch translation is Helan, and the Italian is Italy.

Arabs like Da Shi, Da Ming is relatively clear.

Bian Yong recorded everything on paper: "The capital of Siam is very prosperous, but it is full of Yi people, Yi people walk on the road, the locals are not surprised, and even Siamese nobles marry Yi people and serve evil ghosts, which is really unethical, and Wei Chen can't bear to look at ...... directly"

"Wechen learned that the Franc machine is two countries, Spain and Portugal, how is the map of their countries, Wechen is exploring, please give Wechen a little time."

"The red hairs who come and go to the Ming Dynasty come from many countries, and Wechen learned that in Europa, there are many countries, that Spain and Portugal are like a drop in the ocean, and Wechen is worried about the strength of its Europa military."

"Wechen bought corn seeds in the hands of the big food merchant, but he was unwilling to sell them to Daming, Wechen knew that it was just bargaining, Wechen as you said, willing to trade with silk, and his people really agreed, vaguely revealing that the corn seeds are not in the big food."

"Your Majesty, Wechen was in Siam, and I met a poisonous merchant, and Wechen talked about Buddhism with him, but he didn't know what Buddhism was! Wechen was shocked, Buddhism has withered away from the poison in the body, and Wechen still has the heart to visit the Buddhas with the poison. ”

"Wechen learned that Siam has the intention of annexing Cambodia, and intends to go south, expand the power, Wechen thought that Siam is the first enemy of our dynasty, but its soldiers are weak, Wechen is rare, the soldiers in the hands of Wechen, and the Siamese soldiers fought ten games, ten victories, the last one allowed the use of weapons, my heavenly soldiers killed 154 Siamese soldiers, one killed."

"Siam wanted to buy a firearm from Wechen, but Wechen refused, and the King of Siam treated Wechen with the same attitude as before."

"Your Majesty, the King of Siam is also opening up the Ming army, and he is planning to help Bago (southern Burma) attack Ava (northern Burma), and Weichen thinks that once the war breaks out, the dynasty can take the opportunity to recover the lost territory of Luchuan."

"Your Majesty, Wechen has negotiated with the Portuguese merchants, the Portuguese merchants, are willing to sell Daming a ship's seeds, but the price is really high, a seed, it costs a foot of silk, Wechen felt that the seeds were more important, so he agreed to him, and the ship has set sail."

"Your Majesty, the Dutch are willing to sell a batch of warships to the Ming Dynasty, Wechen has seen it, their warships are no worse than the Franc warships, Wechen felt that the price was fair, so he agreed."

“……”

Like a diary, everything is recorded by Bian Yong.

Every day is all about buying, buying, buying.

La Meixuan can be regarded as seeing the solid family background of the Ming Dynasty, and all the Xiyi merchants in the royal capital seem to have done business with the Ming Dynasty.

Daming, who has always claimed to be rich in land and resources, and looks down on Xiyi things, actually began to buy on a large scale, and Pixiu turned sexual.

Pan Benyu left Siam, took a Portuguese merchant ship, and returned to Daming, where the ship ward anchored in Guangzhou.

It is expected to arrive in Guangzhou before Chinese New Year's Eve.

In the middle of the month, there is already a New Year's flavor, a dazzling array of small commodities, full of streets and alleys, and the city of Beijing is very lively.

This year, the tax is reduced, the people's families are more comfortable, and it is naturally better to do small business, and Beijing is more prosperous.

There are three hottest things in Jingshi this year.

One is a down jacket, the emperor encouraged the people of the world to raise ducks and geese, and the down of ducks and geese was made into a down jacket, which was worn in winter to keep out the cold.

The second is the fire kang, since the beginning of the year, the emperor has paid attention to the fire kang, in the autumn, finally caused, the center vigorously promoted, into the homes of ordinary people, now the most profitable in Beijing, is the fire kang craftsmen, the magnates in Beijing have set up the fire kang, the fire wall, the people also want to build.

The third is canned!

That's right, canned.

This autumn, after the harvest of the fruit, the fruit is not easy to preserve, so the emperor issued an order to order the royal trading house to establish more than 100 canneries in the south.

The fruits that cannot be sold are purchased, canned with sugar water, and bottled in porcelain.

You have to cover it with an iron cover.

The courtiers all scolded the emperor for being a loser, how good it is to use these iron to make farm tools, but it has become an iron cover, which is really a waste.

Zhu Qiyu sent people to explore iron mines all over the country and establish iron factories.

In winter, the stored canned food will be put on the market, the canned food is convenient to store and transport, and the canned food from the south can be sold to catch fish.

Naturally, the canned food sold out.

The porcelain vase is made exquisitely and beautifully, and how many people buy it back as an ornament.

The courtiers somewhat understood why the emperor asked the people to plant fruit trees, and said that he would harvest it, and sure enough, it would be made into canned food, and it would not be bad for several years, a profitable business.

A few years ago, the emperor waved his hand and rewarded the canneries in various places to this year's meritorious officials.

The businessman touched the bypass, and even developed canned meat, built a factory in Mobei, and made canned meat from beef and mutton that could not be eaten, and sold it to the mainland.

Canned food is the hottest thing in the winter of Jingtai's ninth year.

"You mean the glass was fired?" Zhu Qiyu looked at Fei Fan.

After Fei Fan came to Jingshi, he wrote to invite some of his friends, who were in the palace and had been studying glass.

"Your Majesty, please read it!"

Fei Fan presented a glass bottle, made according to the canned bottle, with an iron cap twisted, and the threads were closed.

"It's transparent."

Zhu Qiyu took it and put it on his eyes, and he could see Fei Fan, but it was not very clear: "How much does it cost?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, if you produce in Beijing, it is very expensive, but you can go to the desert to produce it, it is worthless."

Fei Fan was also very depressed, he developed glass, but in fact, he entered a misunderstanding.

I think that glass is the creation of heaven and earth, but in fact, this thing is fired from saline-alkali sand, it's as simple as that.

In the past, it was opaque when burned, that is, the sand was used incorrectly, and when it was burned with ordinary sand, it was opaque, and when it was fired with saline-alkali sand, it was transparent, and it was not possible to add additional saline.

"Let's talk about it."

Fei Fan gave a detailed description of what kind of sand can be used to make such glass, etc.

"It's worthless!"

Zhu Qiyu had a smile on his face: "You go to register a patent, and then open a factory, no, run a few more, you Fei family to run one, I will reward you." ”

The recipe cannot be disclosed, he needs glass to make money, to earn money for the war.

This time, the sand is also a treasure.

The court won't oppose his occupation of more deserts, right?

"Wechen dare not accept His Majesty's reward." Fei Fan was depressed in his heart, he was a literati, and he was going to be admitted to the Jinshi, but His Majesty let him go further and further in his obscene skills.

"I want to set up the Gewu Academy, and you will serve as the envoy of the Academy, which will be subordinate to the Military Aircraft Department, and I will be in direct charge."

Zhu Qiyu saw his reluctance: "Jingtai has entered the Shike for eleven years, how about I allow you to enter the palace examination?" ”

"How can Your Majesty cheat in the imperial examination because of one minister?" If Fei Fan agreed, it is estimated that he would be sprayed to death by the literati.

"Hahaha." Zhu Qiyu laughed.

Fei Fan kowtowed.

"The work of developing glass is greatly rewarded, and a collective silver charm is rewarded, and all participants are rewarded."

Zhu Qiyu asked people to pick a place near the Forbidden City and use it as a gewuyuan.

"Fei Fan, next year, I will replace the paper in the Forbidden City with transparent glass, can you do it?" Zhu Qiyu asked him.

"Weichen will live up to His Majesty's high expectations!" Fei Fan kowtowed.

"He Zhien has done a good job, when I want to split the Royal Commercial House in the coming year, he He Zhien can take on a big responsibility."

Zhu Qiyu said quietly, it was enough to beat He Zhien.

The canned food is all in charge of He Zhien.

"Emperor, you have also collected all the dates and wolfberries in the world, how can you sell them?" Feng Xiao whispered.

Zhu Qiyu glanced at him: "Jujube and wolfberry are good things, the people can't afford to use them, and those rich businessmen in Jiangnan want to buy them, but they can't buy them." ”

"Feng Xiao, tell me, what is the most profitable?"

Feng Xiao spread his hands, how do I know?

"Monopoly, dates and wolfberries are in my hands, I can sell them as I want, I want to use these to exchange for salt from salt merchants."

Jingtai ten years, must bring down the price of salt!

Feng Xiao's face changed, and he knelt on the ground, not daring to say anything.

Zhu Qiyu is in a very good mood, and this year he has won victories in foreign wars, opened up his territory, and opened up the situation in Nanzhili, and the situation is very good.

But the life of the people is still very hard.

"Tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, right?"

"I don't know how Fang Ying in Annan, Wang Yue in North Korea, Chen You in Suzhou, Li Jin and Mao Sheng in Rehe are doing?"

Zhu Qiyu pondered: "Can the things prepared by Shu be delivered to them before Chinese New Year's Eve?" ”

"Go back to the emperor, you will definitely be able to!"

On Chinese New Year's Eve this year, Zhu Qiyu carefully prepared gifts.

Everyone has governors stationed throughout the country.

There are all the courtiers who have made great contributions this year.

At this time, Wang Yue, who was in Chuncheon, sighed faintly: "The day after tomorrow is the New Year, and the New Year's flavor of North Korea is really not enough at all." ”

Nonsense, the people can't eat now, where can they be happy? What year is it?

However, the center allocated 200,000 stone of grain and transported it to North Korea to help the Korean people.

The situation in North Korea is very good, the Jurchens are blocked in North Korea, Jiang Wan and Mao Zhong are in the north, Wang Yue is blocked in the south, and the Jurchens have become turtles in the urn.

And the new king of Joseon is also a good one to control.

The Ming army recovered all the cities in the south, controlled one place, and opened the door to release grain to stabilize people's hearts.

The construction of Chidao will wait until next year, and North Korea is also winter, but the fire kang spread from Liaoning to North Korea, and Wang Yue's mansion also built a fire kang, and Wang Yue sat on the fire kang.

A group of men and horses galloped from the north and arrived at Chuncheon.

Outside the Joseon Governor's Palace.

Wang Yue was warming up in the house, and when he heard that the angel had arrived, he immediately went out to greet him.

Encounter old acquaintances in a foreign land.

When Wang Yue saw the eunuch, his eyes were shining, and he knelt down to listen to the order.

This is the decree of the reward.

The emperor named Wang Yue as the Marquis of Chunchuan, gave Jiang Wan I a world coupon, sealed Mao Zhong Fu Qiangbo, awarded Li Kanzhong Feng Doctor (Zheng Erpin), Yang Shou Chen Zhongshun Doctor (Zheng Sipin), Feng Duxi Zheng Sipin Riding Captain, Zhou Xianzheng Liupin Yun Cavalry Captain, Zhou Yu Cong Liupin Wu Cavalry Captain.

As soon as the generals were represented, all of them were rewarded.

Qin Cheng is a eunuch and did not get an official position, but he did have the most rewards.

He also ordered Wang Yue to form a Korean army, stationed in Korea, and accept the surrender of the Jurchens as appropriate.

"Please sit down with the Marquis of Chunchuan, our family still has something from His Majesty."

Wang Yue was classified as a martial artist by the emperor, which is the inevitable result.

The two lines of Wei Guogong and Dingguo Gong were beheaded, and there were only three Guogongs left in the court, there were too few Guogongs, Wuxun withered, and the emperor's heart was unstable.

Therefore, if Wang Yue is so capable of fighting, he will inevitably be the position of the prince of the country in the future.

The eunuch in the palace was talking, and a lot of food boxes were sent in.

Wang Yue guessed, it's hot pot again?

But.

But the palace people set up a stove and took out all the ingredients from the food box, all of which were threaded with bamboo sticks.

"What is this?" Wang Yue was surprised, this thing is a little familiar, but also a little unfamiliar?

"Your Majesty gave me the name of barbecue, please stay less."

Barbecue has been eaten since ancient times.

But I've never seen anything like this.

The charcoal was burned, and the eunuch personally took charge of the spoon, and after testing the temperature of the coal, he began to put the worn meat skewers on the stove and introduced to Wang Yue: "Chunchuan Hou, this charcoal is fruit wood charcoal, which is the most expensive and of the best quality in Beijing. ”

"Look."

"It's lamb skewers, beef skewers, pork skewers and chicken sausages, five skewers each."

"The emperor is worried that you won't be able to eat alone, so you haven't prepared too much."

"These are marinated chicken wings, duck wings and goose wings, two skewers each."

When the eunuch introduced, a fragrance penetrated Wang Yue's nose, this is the taste of ordinary barbecue, nothing special.

"These are chicken gizzards, chicken hearts, pig hearts, cow hearts, sheep hearts, heart tubes, and tendons, two strings of each."

"A pigeon, a quail, and a bird."

"There are also five skewers of fresh shrimp, five skewers of silkworm chrysalis, and five skewers of sausages."

"It's all meat."

The eunuch waved his hand, and the eunuch behind him came in with a big food box: "Chunchuan Hou, please see, this is a vegetarian dish." ”

"There are two skewers of potato slices and sweet potato slices."

"These two things are scarce, and the emperor himself is reluctant to eat them."

"It's vegetable skewers, dried tofu, and gluten, five skewers of each."

As he spoke, he took out a small jar from a food box, unscrewed it, and raised the ingredients for the first time against the meat skewers on the stove.

When you land, the fragrance comes out.

This barbecue is a little different.

"What is this?"

"Rejuvenate Chuanhou, this is the emperor's secret seasoning, and the slave doesn't know the recipe."

The eunuch waved his hand again.

The third big food box was delivered: "Please Chunchuan Hou's palm." ”

"Here are a few side dishes, cucumbers, celery segments, shredded kelp, edamame, four side dishes."

"This box is a few honeydew melons."

As he spoke, he brought up a fourth food box.

Inside were four jugs of wine.

"It's white wine, fruit wine, wine and sour plum soup."

"The emperor said that there is another kind of beer, which could have been delivered together, but the beer has not been made, and you will be able to taste it when the next banquet is given."

The eunuch turned over and took out the second ingredient, chili noodles, cumin grains and sesame seeds, and raised them on top respectively, and the fragrance suddenly took shape.

The eunuch put the grilled meat skewers in a tray, and the eunuch who was waiting for them offered them with both hands and handed them to Wang Yue.

Wang Yue first thanked the emperor.

I picked up a bunch and put it in my mouth, and it tasted really good.

But he ate with tears in his eyes.

His Majesty, who is far away in Beijing, is worried about him.

Not far away, the barbecue was sent to him, and the roast was given to him on Chinese New Year's Eve, and the emperor could not let his family have a reunion dinner, but told him that your king is more in his heart.

"Wechen will serve the saint with death!" Wang Yue kowtowed respectfully.

When grilling skewers, brush the oil first, and after baking a little moisture, start to sprinkle small ingredients, the main raw materials of small ingredients are pepper and cumin powder.

After baking until it is medium-cooked, it is necessary to sprinkle pepper cumin sesame seeds, and after sprinkling, it is half-cooked, and then remove from the heat and bake the skewers until fully cooked with residual temperature, and the taste is the best.

Yang Shouchen, Li Kan, Qin Cheng, Zhou Xian, Zhou Yu, Jiang Wan, and Mao Zhong are all the same skewers and the same wine.

A barbecue shows the emperor's grace.

It warms people's hearts more than cold holy decrees.

Mao Zhong also wanted some small ingredients, but the problem was that there were only so many small ingredients, and he only said that he would be able to eat them when there were more chili peppers next year.

And Li Jin and Mao Sheng, who were far away in Rehe, were wrestling with the Chechen Ministry.

He also received a decree from the palace.

"Jin Mao Sheng Nanning Bo is the Marquis of Nanning, Jin Li Jin Xiangcheng Bo is the Marquis of Xiangcheng, Feng Li Bingwen Xunzheng Wupin Correction Shu Yin, Feng Wang Shu and Chen Tai Cong Wupin Xiezheng Shu Yin ......"

Awarded according to meritorious service.

At the same time, it was the emperor's Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, a barbecue, which made Li Jin's eyes red.

Promoted to the Lord!

He is the fourth generation of Xiangcheng Bo, and finally with his military merits, he was promoted to the marquis, although there is no world coupon, but when the Ming Dynasty really occupies Helin, His Majesty will definitely give the world coupon.

As excited as he was Mao Sheng, Mao Sheng's granddaughter was proud and gave birth to a dragon heir for the emperor, but he was promoted to marquis by virtue of his military merits.

The barbecue is very fragrant, this is not a meal, but the emperor's grace!

And in Liaoning, the holy decree in the palace came.

"Awarded Prince Li Xian Shaobao, gave Fengrun Bo Caoyi III world bonds, sealed Shiju and Jiao Lizheng three products on the light car captain, and awarded the merchant Ronglu doctor."

And give a Chinese New Year's Eve feast.

Although Xu Hui was a eunuch, he was also given a banquet.

After this barbecue, everyone wants to eat again.

Li Xian clicked his lips: "This spicy taste comes from chili peppers?" ”

"It's chili peppers, I really didn't expect that the chili peppers I planted with my own hands would taste so good."

Xu Hui felt that this chili pepper was used just right, not particularly spicy, and particularly refreshing.

Originally, I don't usually eat much food, but today I ate more.

This pepper is very appetizing.

"Potatoes and sweet potatoes, so delicious?"

Li Xian thought in his heart, if corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes were planted all over the grassland, then what else could shackle the Ming Dynasty's external expansion?

As long as these three things can be planted, where is the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

Meng Yuan's rule relies on brutality and can still rule such a large territory, where is the Ming Dynasty worse than Meng Yuan?

Make up a thousand tomorrow~
