Chapter 343: It doesn't matter who wins or loses, as long as you play well
The queen is not pregnant so far, it is Zhu Yijun's problem, of course, this is not his physical problem, but a choice problem.
He has no intention of getting the queen pregnant recently, the reason is very simple, Wang Yaozhuo is still young, and young pregnant women are still very dangerous in the current sanitary environment of the Ming Dynasty, and for Wang Yaozhuo, at the age of sixteen, the risk of childbirth is extremely high.
When the mother is still developing, the fetus develops in the mother's womb, and the development will become extremely unstable, which may cause miscarriage or even malformation, and the fetus born is easy to die.
The three ladies are very strange, the Ming Emperor has been married for so long, and the three concubines in the harem are really not angry, and there is no news of pregnancy until now, because of the lack of material conditions, giving birth to children on the grassland, how can there be so much attention, when they are grabbed and when they are born.
For example, when the third lady was robbed by Altan Khan to be his wife, she was just nine years old.
Zhu Yijun looked at the surrounding environment, the bright yellow curtain hanged, the crane-shaped palace lamp floated with wisps of incense, the left and right were the correction officials, and the palace maids and eunuchs stood on the left and right, under the platform, there were Ming civil and military officials sitting on the left and right, in this kind of scene, here Zhu Yijun is the emperor, he is not good to discuss these physiological issues with the bewitching beauty of Sanniangzi in this environment.
"Mrs. Zhongshun came to Beijing this time and sent back the Marquis of Duntai who was captured by the king of captivity, I am really happy, this is Mrs. Zhongshun's loyal heart, I am a stingy person, but Mr. often tells me that as a monarch, only the word reward and punishment are two, Mrs. Zhongshun has merit, and I will naturally be rewarded." Zhu Yijun chose to divert the topic and let people appreciate it.
The issue of having a child should not be discussed in such a serious setting.
"This is..."The third lady thought it was a routine reward, a three-piece set of silver, national cellar, and dayu, but this time the reward was very rich.
A complete set of bestowal clothes, including seven Zhai crowns, jackets, gold-embroidered Yunxia Zhai pattern Xia veil, chest and back decorated with gold-embroidered round-necked robes, leather belts, gold pendants, jade gui, etc., are completely made in accordance with the grade of Princess Shunyi.
I replied to the tribute, and the king of Shunyi was crowned, but the king of the five chapters was crowned, according to the "Notes on the Ritual of the Domain" compiled by Hu Hui, the princess of the king of the five chapters was not given, and this time Zhu Yijun gave the service is a special reward.
This thing is expensive, it is made of silk, that is, the Ming Emperor is so rich, and there is not much silk in the palace, so he sold it to Hongmao Fan for silver.
In addition to the service, it is the seal of Mrs. Zhongshun, which is a thumb-sized gold seal, which represents the recognition of the Ming Emperor to Mrs. Zhongshun herself, this recognition is very important, and represents the title of Mrs. Zhongshun, from the subordinate status of Altan Khan, even if it is separated from Altan Khan itself, the three ladies can continue to act as a political figure, whether it is in the Ming Dynasty or in the grassland.
Crown ribbon and seal ribbon, this is the emperor's reward to the third lady herself.
The rest of the silver, silk and other things appear to be outside the body.
His Majesty himself said that he was very picky, but in this matter, the emperor was very generous, and the reward was very rich.
"The concubine bows and thanks Your Majesty for her grace." The third lady gave a big gift again, and received the crown and ribbon and ribbon given by the emperor, if one day he really tore his face with Altan Khan, the third lady also had a little more confidence.
"I don't quite understand why Altan Khan is willing to agree to send these distant marquis back?" Zhu Yijun leaned on the back of the chair and asked his own question, Altan Khan is a very strong person, and his lifelong record is indeed qualified to be strong, the Ming Emperor wants, and he Altan Khan can choose not to give.
Altan Khan fought all his life, rarely defeated, even if he was old, he still had full military talent, and he suffered several losses in the hands of Ma Fang, the former chief soldier of Datong and the deputy chief officer of the current Beijing Division.
Altan Khan, who has been strong all his life, does not have a lot of time to make him soft, and the last time the court did not allow Altan Khan to go to Xining through the Hexi Corridor, Altan Khan also had trouble with the court for a long, long time.
"He's going to fight the earth barbarian Khan." The third lady explained the reason succinctly.
Before the left and right wings of the Tatars, there were still the Great Xianbei Mountains that could be blocked, but now, the left wing of the Tatars, the Tuman Khan, has been forced back to the west of the Great Xianbei Mountain, and the fundamental contradiction between the left and right wings has intensified again, and the fundamental contradiction of competing for material resources and survival.
Zhu Yijun was stunned, and said with a smile: "I thought that Altan Khan and Tuman Khan, the left and right wings would be reconciled, and then jointly attack the Ming Dynasty, but now it seems that this is not the case." ”
The third lady said bluntly: "I tried it before, this spring, the combined troops are in one place, and the combined troops can't defeat the Ming army at this time." ”
The logic is also very clear, in summary, I can't beat Da Ming, I can't beat you!
The fiasco of the combined forces completely bankrupted the reconciliation process of the left and right wings, mainly because the loss was too ugly, and the Ming Dynasty repelled the combined attack almost at any cost, making the left and right wings panic.
In the face of the Ming Dynasty, it is a very normal thing to lose, since the Hongwu years, in two hundred years, as long as the Ming Zhenwu, the grassland can only eat defeat, lose for so many years, and completely lose the habit.
The third lady looked at Qi Jiguang, this man with some gray hair on his temples, he was a feared existence on the grassland, he couldn't beat Daming, so in order to live, he had to fight in the same room.
On the one hand, there are limited resources for survival, and on the other hand, heretics are more hateful than heretics.
The third lady said with a strange face: "It is an extremely unwise decision of Altan Khan to use force against Ying Chang, who is personally guarded by Qi Shuai, even if he pretends to be his eldest son. However, this defeat has reduced most of the prestige he has accumulated, and he must re-establish his prestige, otherwise rebellion will occur at any time. ”
"The grassland and the Ming are not the same."
Daming and the grassland are completely different, but where the specific difference is, the three ladies can't fully express it.
Zhu Yijun thought for a moment, and said with a smile: "I know what Mrs. Zhongshun means, what is the rule of the system on the grassland is the prestige of the individual, but in the Ming Dynasty, it is the system that maintains the rule. ”
The Ming Dynasty is too big, relying on personal prestige to rule, is not a long-term solution at all, so a set of widely recognized systems is needed to make the Ming court operate normally, so that the upper and lower levels perform their duties, and the grassland is different, the rule of the grassland, many times, is carried out by relying on personal prestige, once personal prestige is seriously damaged, the rule will become precarious.
Altan Khan was in desperate need of a victory to reassert his prestige and rule.
"Your Majesty Shengming!" The third lady praised from the bottom of her heart, and the third lady only vaguely felt this way, but the emperor's summary was very accurate.
The Ming Dynasty relied on the system, the grassland relied on personal prestige, and the stability was completely incomparable.
"No wonder the king was willing to agree to negotiate peace, obviously the king has been winning, but he is still willing to bow down." Zhu Yijun understood the reason why I was willing to negotiate peace during the Longqing period, and the appearance of Ma Fang made Altan Khan deflated several times in a row.
Altan continued to fight with Daming, but before Daming could fight, Altan Khan himself was about to be chopped off by his subordinates and sent to Beijing to invite merit.
This kind of thing has not happened before, Jingtai five years, Ah Ra Zhiyuan attacked and killed Ye Xian, and took Ye Xian's head off and thought of the Ming Dynasty for a reward, Ah Ra Zhi Yuan sent the head to the Admiral Xuanfu Military Affairs Right Du Yushi Li Bingyan, in exchange for a lot of property, Jing Emperor Zhu Qiyu out of various considerations, did not give Ah Ra Zhi Yuan any title, the grassland was more infighting, and then Ah Ra Zhi Yuan was also killed by his subordinates.
The war with the Ming Dynasty is meaningless for the king of captivity.
Even if you win once, twice, what can you do? Daming slowed down a little and eased up, and when the king was defeated once or twice, he had to worry that his head would be screwed off as a ball to kick, the infighting in the grassland, and even the ancestors' law.
The political stability of the Ming Dynasty is much higher than that of the grassland, because the politics of the Ming Dynasty rely on the system to operate, and the politics of the grassland rely on personal prestige to operate.
Zhu Yijun is very diligent in government, but most of the time he also follows the advice of the ministers, if he wants to be a faint monarch, let the eunuchs pave the music every day, go to stamp a seal to get off work, and even do not need to go to the palace gate of Wenhua Palace to listen to the government, let alone preside over the new policy, do not have to fight on land and sea, do not have to fight with the real swords and guns of the luxury households, the Ming dynasty can still run stably, although it will decline slowly, but it can also survive the day of Zhu Yijun's death.
The Wanli Emperor in history was so messy, and the heavy blood of the Ming Dynasty still lasted for more than 70 years.
Altan Khan can't be rotten, Altan Khan is not bad, the eldest son Sangge was directly killed to sacrifice to the sky, to bear the price of defeat.
"Altan Khan is going to fight against the Tuman Khan, who does Lady Zhongshun want to win?" Zhu Yijun pondered the position of the Ming court on the internal strife in the northern captives.
The third lady asked curiously, "Who does Your Majesty want to win?" ”
Where Daming stands, he thinks about it, he doesn't stand at any end, but stands in the middle, and it is more appropriate to sit and reap the benefits of the fisherman.
There is no need for Daming to support anyone, no matter who he supports, he will not get any gratitude, but it will cause the joint vigilance of the left and right wings.
"No one wins, no one loses, keep fighting." Zhu Yijun chose sincerity, sincerity is the greatest nirvana, and told the third lady, Daming's position.
It doesn't matter who wins or loses, just play well.
The three ladies are speechless, Daming is too honest, she is in the side hall of Wenhua Palace, even if the Ming Emperor is doing superficial things, he should support his own vassal state, King Shunyi is the king canonized by Daming!
Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "Mr. said that since he doesn't plan to give, there is no need to give people unrealistic illusions, and then because he can't ask for it, he will be resentful." ”
"Mr. Gaoyi." The third lady had no choice but to get off the donkey and praised Zhang Juzheng for teaching well.
In addition to negotiating the supply of wool business next year, when the Tatar left and right conflicts, the three ladies hope to win the support of the Ming Dynasty for the Shunyi Wang Yida, even if they do not get clear support, they must get a clear commitment that the Ming will not personally intervene.
The Ming garrison in Yingchang was like a sword hanging over the heads of the left and right wings that fell at any time.
But the Ming Emperor was so stingy, even in the case of the Sacred Heart, he still refused to give even a good and obedient word, and even did not let Honglu Siqing pass the word, but explained it directly to his face.
This made the third lady quite worried, and her face was full of gloom.
"Mrs. Zhongshun, let's talk about something that everyone is interested in." Zhu Yijun ended the topic of internal strife in the Northern Captives, whether the Ming Dynasty should intervene or not, and when to intervene, all depend on the will of the Ming Dynasty.
The third lady's eyes lit up, and she said with interest: "Have you a child?" ”
Emperor Ming's Liuhe big gun is a tiger and a tiger, and his waist strength must be good.
Zhu Yijun clenched his fists violently, shook his head and said, "I mean, wool business." ”
Daming needs more wool, and the grassland needs to raise more sheep and increase the supply of wool, this is the basic consensus, even more than the contradiction between Daming and Beiyu.
After there is a clear basic consensus, communication with each other can be smooth.
Regarding the wool production in the coming year, Zhu Yijun and Sanniangzi made a clear confirmation to ensure that the amount of wool next year is more than this year.
The three ladies very much hope to buy a little tires this new goods back to the grassland, the road of Daming has an official post road, which is extremely smooth, even if it is bumpy, it is limited, but the bumps on the grassland, that is the wild environment, a complete set of tires, wheels, '宀' spring steel shock absorption, etc., for the meat eaters of the grassland, the temptation is great.
Zhu Yijun said that he could not do anything, the rubber plantation in Luzon had just been put into production, and the output was extremely limited, and the Ming Dynasty himself was not enough, let alone supplied to the grassland, but if there was more, did the Ming Emperor dismantle his own jade chariot?
In a peaceful, happy atmosphere, the Ming Emperor ended the three ladies of the audience, the atmosphere is harmonious, because in the wool business, everyone has to earn.
After the three ladies left, Zhu Yijun started the year-end meeting, and at the end of the year, it was the busiest month for the six departments of the Ming Dynasty.
This month, the abacus of the household department should audit the accounts of the Ming Dynasty and make next year's budget, especially the audit, which is very important, and it is closely related to the Ming Dynasty's examination to become a legal official; The Ministry of Industry should put a finishing touch on this year's Dingjian Dagong of Daming, and make an expected plan for next year's Dingjian Dagong to facilitate the Ministry of Household to make a budget; The Criminal Department should cross-examine the files of each local area throughout the year to prevent unjust, false and wrongly decided cases; The Ministry of Rites should prepare for the New Year's celebrations, feasts, Aoshan lights, etc.; The Ministry of War should also conduct further verification of this year's payment of military salaries.
The inner court is not idle, the twenty-four yamen of the inner court, must carry out a comprehensive inventory, prepare for the New Year, cleaning, not only cleaning, but also some palace maids and eunuchs whose hands and feet are not very clean to dispose of, the inner transport warehouse is particularly important, and the assets in the palace and the imperial village must be comprehensively inspected.
This is all the troubles of happiness, in the past when the country used a big loss, where there is so much work, before the New Year, the inner court and the outer court, are busy scratching their heads, the Ministry of War has to deal with the soldiers to ask for money and rewards, the household department can only find a crack in the face of hundreds of officials to drill into, this year's Yulu has not issued much, the Ministry of Industry is going around asking for project money, before that was the real trouble, because there is no way to solve it.
There is only one disease in the world, and that is poverty.
"Busy, busy, busy." Zhu Yijun looked at Tan Lun and said with a smile: "Da Sima's trip to Xuanfu is extremely hard, but it still has to be hard Da Sima and Qi Shuai, this year's Beijing New Year's Silver will be two, personally staring at the point, I don't want to go to Beidaying, suddenly a soldier stopped my big driver, saying that this year's New Year's silver was deducted." ”
"The ministers obey." Qi Jiguang and Tan Lun took the order.
When the Beijing camp celebrates the New Year, each person has a silver, this is the rule set in the first year of Wanli, it has been six years, the Ming Dynasty Beijing camp has a total of 100,000 people, the New Year's silver is 100,000 silver, for the emperor, a drop in the bucket.
"This year's New Year's silver of the 100 officials in Jingtang, according to the convention, two taels per person for the fourth grade and above, one tael per person for the fifth grade and below, the audit of the big Situ and the household department is harder, and it is best to report the account book before the twenty-fourth of the lunar month." Zhu Yijun looked at Wang Guoguang and Zhang Xueyan, and said quite sincerely.
"The ministers obey." The two officials of the household department bowed to the leader.
Zhu Yijun explained a lot of work, then looked at Zhang Juzheng, and said with a smile: "Sir, have the foreign officials and people who entered Beijing to meet this year have been arranged?" ”
"Nope." Zhang Juzheng bowed his head and said.
"Huh?" Zhu Yijun was stunned, Zhang Juzheng, who has always been vigorous and resolute, actually has a day of procrastination? ! Last year, Zhang Juzheng was worried about Ding Wei, and he also played the 'recommendation' of the foreign officials and people who met him, this is about to be the New Year, Zhang Juzheng has not done it yet?
"To meet with foreign officials, the elderly, and the common people, it is naturally appropriate for Your Majesty to appoint it." Zhang Juzheng held a hand and said with great certainty.
After Zhang Juzheng Ding Wei returned to the dynasty, the biggest difference between him and before Ding Wei was that Zhang Juzheng no longer abused his power, even if His Majesty supported him, but Zhang Juzheng began to perform his functions, as a Yuan Assistant, assisting in state affairs, not as a regent, he had to participate in decision-making in everything.
This is the biggest change.
"So." Zhu Yijun didn't say much, and agreed.
Zhang Juzheng Ding is worried about returning to the government, and he can't return to the government after returning to the dynasty, isn't that Bai Ding's worry?
Zhu Yijun ended the court meeting, arranged many affairs before the end of the year, completed within a time limit, and spent the New Year in peace, this year's new policy has two major directions, one is the selection of official examinations, which has been carried out as scheduled, and the system design has become more perfect after Wang Chonggu supplemented the prison officials; New contradictions also emerged when wealthy households migrated to Beijing, and thousands of wealthy households in Nanya entered Beijing as scheduled.
"Your Majesty, Third Lady, do you need to arrange it?" Feng Bao asked His Majesty, as for what was arranged, Feng Bao didn't say it clearly, but he believed that His Majesty could understand what he meant.
Zhu Yijun thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "Forget it, trouble." ”
It's not that Zhu Yijun dislikes the three ladies, this is indeed an exchange of body fluids, isn't it a political exchange? Under the framework of political games, under the condition of ensuring safety, Zhu Yijun is still a little interested in bewitching beauties, who is not a thief.
But this thing, when it comes to the inheritance of the Ming throne, it can't be sloppy, if the third lady runs away with the ball, in case Zhu Yijun learns the Taoist in the dog fight with the courtiers, and even his own children can't be protected, isn't it an illegitimate son who grew up on the grassland and has the legal inheritance of the Ming Dynasty?
"Mrs. Zhongshun's idea is still good, but it is not easy to realize." Zhu Yijun appreciated the idea of the third lady very much, the Wanghua grassland started from the partition, but the Han king who was put in the grassland must be a prince, and the rank of the county king was not enough, and he could not carry out the king.
Then to be crowned a prince, you must be the emperor's brother, or the emperor's son.
Zhu Yijun's eyes looked at Zhu Yiyi, the king of Lu.
Zhu Yiyi, who was listening to the government, felt a chill inexplicably, and he woke up suddenly in a daze, he looked at his imperial brother, and always felt... The gaze of his own brother is ill-intentioned!
Zhu Yijun originally wanted to throw Zhu Yijun to Bansheng to be the king of the Saiwai Han, but after thinking about it, he still didn't make up his mind to seal Zhu Yijun outside the Saiwai, and the Empress Dowager Li must, certainly, and inevitably find Zhu Yijun desperately.
Zhu Yijun can't go, and Emperor Longqing has no other illegitimate children, thinking about it, thinking about it, only Zhu Yijun, the emperor, has worked hard for his waist.
In the afternoon, Zhu Yijun determined the list of foreign officials and ordinary people and sent it to the cabinet, which means that Zhang Ju is the first assistant, and if it was someone else, Zhu Yijun really wouldn't ask.
Let Zhang Juzheng take a look, because Zhang Juzheng is not only a courtier, but also a gentleman, and Zhang Juzheng directly posted a blank floating ticket, indicating his attitude of not interfering much.
Another year of spring is coming, the year is approaching, the Ming Emperor's car began to go out frequently, Beidaying, Xishan Coal Bureau, Yongding woolen factory, Chaoyang Gate outside the happy stele forest, Daxing County Nanhaizi, East and West City Shefan Temple, Nursing House, and the Ming Empress has been accompanied.
After inspecting these places, Zhu Yijun met with foreign officials at the Imperial Gate, and the first foreign official he received this year was King Shojiu of the Ryukyus.
"Aiqing, can you still adapt to Daming?" Zhu Yijun asked Shang Jiu, who was kneeling on the ground, to stand up and reply.
"Very well, Thank You, Your Majesty." Shang Jiu's character is the kind of person who can get by, and if he can live a good life, he can live a good life for a day, and the degree of 50,000 silver a year is enough for Shang Jiu to live an excellent life.
"That Yamada Yushin has been arrested, and I have fulfilled my promise." Zhu Yijun talked about his promise, Chrysostom Yuyan, since the promise must be fulfilled, he promised in the holy decree to hang the people and avenge the people of the Ryukyus, and he would definitely punish the culprit, and Yamada Yuxin was sent to Beijing with weapons.
Shang Jiu didn't know about this situation, and no one told him about it, the matter of the Ryukyus, the affairs of the Wa Kingdom, no one dared to reveal it to Shang Jiu without the emperor's order, this is the ban of the Ming Dynasty, that is, the ban specially formulated for the vassal king, also known as the happy pig plan.
At this moment, Shang Jiu once again recalled the fear of being dominated by the Japanese Invaders, that kind of panic and uneasiness, in the presence of the emperor, finally became a peace of mind, and the culprit who harmed Shang Jiu who ran to Daming for refuge was the Japanese Kou.
"Your Majesty, what are you going to do with this Yamada Arishi?" Shang Jiu asked in a low voice.
Zhu Yijun smiled and asked, "Leave it to Aiqing to dispose of?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, there is no good way to punish this fang, it is better to hand it over to the Jie Ji Yuan, the craftsmanship of the chief medical officers of the Xie Ji Yuan is extremely professional." After thinking about it for a long time, he killed this Yamada Youxin with one sword, and he was angry, if he didn't kill him, he would have no good way to torture him, and it would delay his enjoyment.
Professional things, leave it to professional people to do, that Wang Jinglong, in the palace of the king of Hades in the world, in the eighteenth layer of hell, reincarnated for a full six years, before ending a terrible life, walking the last part of life, death is not terrible, waiting for death This period of time is the most torture, and dead and alive, not dead or alive, is the most cruel punishment in the world.
Zhu Yijun thought for a while and nodded and said, "Then send Yamada Youxin to the Solution?" ”
"Ministers for the people of the Ryukyus, thank you for Your Majesty Longen." Shang Jiu squeezed two tears hard, he was really good in Daming, back to Ryukyu, Shurifu was burned clean by a fire, how long will it take to go back and run around to settle down?
This was the last time that Shang Jiu spoke on behalf of the people of the Ryukyus, and after that, he was a happy king of the Ryukyus.
Zhu Yijun chatted with Shang Jiu for a long time, and after a reward, Shang Jiu left happily.
Zhu Yijun looked at Shang Jiu's back, Liu Chan said the sentence in Wei State, how much helplessness, and how much sincerity, I don't know, but this Shang Jiu is really happy here, don't think about Ryukyu, the luxury of the Ming Dynasty is something that Ryukyu can't enjoy.
This is the best choice for Shang Jiu.
The Ming Dynasty opened the sea, the sword pointed at the Wa Kingdom, Ryukyu as the sea beam of all countries, such an important place, the Ming Dynasty's coercion and temptation will only become more and more intense, which is the inevitable driven by interests, and on the other hand, the Ming Dynasty for the stability of the sea frontier, the expansion of the water division, is to go to the Wa Kingdom, the position of the Ryukyus, it is decided, Ryukyu is the battlefield.
No matter how Shang Jiu chooses, for him, saving his life is a luxury, how to talk about pleasure? And now the offline monarchy he has chosen can definitely save his life and continue to enjoy luxury.
For Shang Jiu, the choice is greater than the effort.
The second foreign minister Zhu Yijun saw was Wang Xiyuan and Zhang Chucheng, who returned to the Ming Dynasty from Yunnan, these two people were the descendants of Zhang Dang, Zhang Juzheng's students, and Zhang Juzheng's fellow villagers.
At the end of the three-year period, he returned to Beijing to report on his work, and then went to Huguang to serve as the inspector of the imperial history, responsible for the dredging of the Yangtze River and the major event of casting copper coins.
Putting aside the identity of the emperor, Zhu Yijun and these two are brothers in the same sect, so they naturally have something to talk about, Yunnan copper is not as good as the output of Tongxiang Town in Luzon in terms of output, but it is also rising.
The supply of red copper in Luzon is already higher than that of Yunnan copper, but this does not mean that Wang Xiyuan and Zhang Chucheng are meaningless in mining Yunnan copper, on the contrary, it is extremely important to stabilize the border.
"How about that reckless dragon? Can it be a problem for my henchmen? Zhu Yijun was very concerned about the rise of the Donghu Dynasty in the Indochina Peninsula.
"Mang Yinglong is invincible to the Qianguo Mansion." Wang Xiyuan also said something, Mang Yinglong just can't play the Qianguo Mansion.
Strength does not allow.
Zhang Chucheng thought for a moment and said: "The Duke of Qianguo may not be able to attack and destroy Mang Yinglong, but it is still possible to resist the enemy. ”
"The infighting over there is also quite powerful."
Please, beg for a monthly pass, woo!!!!!!!
