Chapter 133 Please Grandpa Rescue Dongying (2)
The next day, the Fengtian Palace Grand Court Meeting.
As usual, Zhu Yunxiu sat upright on the dragon throne high above and looked at the ministers.
But some ministers felt that the emperor was a little different today. In the past, before the emperor sat down on the dragon throne, the ministers who bowed to him would get up first and then sit down.
Today, the emperor sat on the dragon throne first and watched silently for a long time before slowly wavering his hand, and the eunuch conveyed the word "flat body".
Although the two are only changed in different orders, just such a small change can see many things, which also represents a different emperor.
"I am telling you to your Majesty!" The first to speak was Ru Wei, Minister of War. "Yesterday, Yunnan reported that the soldiers from Yunnan and Sichuan had gathered in Kunming, with a total of 35,080 people. The Duke of Qian, Mu Chun, sent a memorial to inquire about the extermination of the rebellious chieftains!"
This time, the military use of Yunnan chieftains and even Myanmar, is the largest foreign military operation of the state in the past two years. Although the scale is not as large as the battle with the Northern Yuan Dynasty, its strategic significance involves the peace in the southwestern border of the empire, and a series of policies such as setting up land reforms in Guizhou, Yunnan and other places in the future, collecting chieftains rights to local officials, and setting up counties and counties.
"I will not accept the orders of the king outside. I will sit in the capital with all the ministers. The war thousands of miles away will be handled by Duke Qian Mu Chun, so that he can let him fight!" As he said that, Zhu Yunxiu paused, "The Supreme Emperor once said that although his surname is Mu, he is also his own child, and I can trust him!"
"The chieftains in Yunnan are deeply grateful to the country. The state court used the comfort of the high officials to grant their autonomy. However, their wolf ambitions do not know the country. Instead, the snake and rat secretly communicate with Myanmar. Is it not good to bully me? "
"This time I go to the expedition, I will punish such a capricious and ulterior motives and ulterior motives and I will pass the imperial edict!"
Speaking of this, Zhu Yunxiu looked at the ministers and continued to shout, "I asked Duke of Qian to be the former general of the captive army, the governor He Fu, Xu Kai, and Zhai Neng as the deputy general, and to kill this villain for me and the Ming Dynasty!"
"I obey the order!" said Ru Feng, the Minister of War.
This war broke out at this point in history. The strategic policy assigned by Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang to Mu Chun was to completely wipe out once and for all. However, the next year, due to Ming Taizu's death and Mu Chun died of illness, Emperor Jianwen directly turned the Ming Empire's whale swallowing of the southwest into seclusion.
Therefore, in the next hundred decades, these military troubles in the southwest will continue to consume the Ming Dynasty's finances, and they will still torture the Ming Empire little by little.
Problems cannot be left to future generations.
"I will send an order to Mu Chun again!" Zhu Yunxiu continued to speak, "Don't be anxious about this battle. I will give him time and allow him to take his time. If there is not enough soldiers and money, I will give him another one. And you cannot ask for quick battles and cause illness." As he said, he said, "The young Duke of Qian was in the army and still had many secret injuries on his body. Let the Imperial Hospital choose a few imperial physicians, go to the Yunnan army to serve, and take good care of the Duke of Qian's health!"
"Abide by the order!"
After the words came, the ministers moved. The emperor not only gave him whatever he wanted, but also sent an imperial physician. This honor was truly unique to the state.
"Who else has this memorial?" Zhu Yunsheng spoke.
The left censor Yan Zhen went straight out and said loudly, "I have a memorial!"
"What's the matter with Yan Aiqing?"
"After my report, the king of the clan, Zhou Fan, embezzled the land of the people and took advantage of the robbery, causing the people to be homeless and displaced. Second, the king of the clan, Zhou Fan, built the palace of the former Song Dynasty, and was arbitrarily ruthless in using the emperor's form, and his intentions were ill-behaved!"
Buzz! In the hall, the ministers were suddenly surprised.
Many people looked at Yan Zhenzhi in confusion and said to themselves, "What are you trying to get evil wind?"
After the founding of the Kingdom of China for thirty years, who dared to attack the vassal kings? Especially now, the Supreme Emperor is still there. That old man cannot let others say that his son is not good at all.
"Oh?" Zhu Yunxiu asked in confusion, "But the news is still true?"
In fact, Zhu Yunxiu was really confused. First, he didn't expect that Yan Zhenzhi was the first to be the one who reported it, and second, the crimes he claimed were really a bit... not painful or itchy.
"I am the left censor of the Ming Dynasty. How could I falsely accuse the vassal king without evidence?" Yan Zhenzhi shouted, "I have complaints from local people and the seal of forced land deeds. The best land is only 20% of the actual price, which is simply an open robbery!"
"With the respect of the Ming Dynasty prince and the vassal king, robbing the land of the people, where is the state of the Ming Dynasty? What is the face of Your Majesty? Since the vassal king did not guard the ministers' principles and used the royal palaces of the previous dynasty, he was actually against Tiangang!"
The needles fell in the hall were silent. Zhu Yunxiu did not speak, but pondered for a moment, "Is there any?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Bao Zhao left among the ministers, "I have a report!"
"Oh? Did the comments from the beloved minister of the Zhou Dynasty also be reported to the King of Zhou?" Zhu Yunxi asked.
"I reported that the clan king Zhou Fan embezzled Sheng Heng's money house worth 300,000 yuan! I even privately used the military pay of the guards and guards under my command to grant loans to merchants and collect high interest rates!"
A single stone caused a thousand sensation. If the charge just now was a behavior that the vassal kings were unaccustomed to in private, then using military pay to lend money would be horrifying.
"Why is there such a thing?" Zhu Yunxiu said, "Speak slowly, be more serious!" As he said that, he stood up and slowly walked down the imperial stairs.
"There is a business name named Sheng Hengda started out as a military corps. The name is a rich cotton factory and it also involves loans and loans." Bao Zhao continued, "I have confirmed that Sheng Hengda has shares of the prince Zhou Fan. Over the years, he has sold tea and horses and collected cotton in the Central Plains, which has caused Zhou Fan to make money every day."
"Because this money house has a voice to lend, Zhou Fan also handed over the annual income to the business for lending. However, as a lack of people's hearts, Zhou Fan's Civic expanded and he could not help but use the military pay of tens of thousands of soldiers to deposit it into Shenghengda money house, and used usury to seek personal gain!"
Buzz!
It’s like a pot in the hall, no matter how cunning the ministers are, they are blushing at this moment.
The military pay of tens of thousands of troops? If one is not good, there will be a mutiny. Once the trouble starts in the heart of the Central Plains, it will be a major event that will hurt the vitality of the Ming Dynasty.
"These scholars with iron heads are not only iron heads, but they are really fucking bad!" Zhu Yunsheng said in his heart.
Yesterday, his suggestion to Bao Zhao did not have the serious crime of lending military pay. This is the ironclad evidence that Zhu Yunyu held it in his hand and killed the King of Zhou after the old man left.
It seems that these hard-working censors either do not do it, and they will be beaten to death with one stick, so that the King of Zhou will never turn over.
Suddenly, Zhu Yunqiu looked at the old Tietou Ling Han who had been silent.
The one who reported the first report was Yan Zhenzhi, and Baozhao came out later. He suppressed and then rose, and increased the amount layer by layer to make the crime of the King of Zhou appear in the court. This kind of thought may not be the gentleman who could deceive him.
It must be this old iron head who gave advice behind the scenes!
"Ling Aiqing, what do you think?"
Everyone was waiting for the emperor's thunder and anger. Misappropriating military pay was a death penalty, and he also gave usury loans, embezzled the people's land, and cheated on merchants' money.
If the King of Qin was the most tyrannical among the kings in the past, then the King of Zhou, who has always been quite famous, is the most traitor in the country.
