Suning knew that he had abolished the death penalty, and many people would find it very inappropriate. However, Suning had his own purpose, and it was definitely not to show off his "benevolence and righteousness."
"Your Majesty, the Haining County magistrate is seriously corrupt, and the charges have been verified. Because Your Majesty has canceled the death penalty, the officials of the Ministry of Punishment don't know how to deal with it." Maha has now been promoted to the prime minister of the cabinet, and Xu Da was sent to Beidu by Suning to lead the army.
guard.
"Your Majesty, I think that when dealing with these corrupt elements, we should all be skinned and cramped." Zhu Chongba may have been too obsessed with corrupt officials in his heart, but he still couldn't change his way of dealing with them.
The Prime Minister Maha on the side also looked at Zhu Chongba in horror. He felt that this man was so reckless and murderous. He was really worried that Emperor Hong Zhao would be affected by Zhu Chongba's murderous nature.
"Haha, corrupt officials are like leeks in the field, they can never be killed and killed!" Suning saw Zhu Chongba with an angry look on his face and couldn't help but smile and shook his head.
"Then kill until the day they are afraid!"
"The Prime Minister, Haining County Magistrate and others were all demoted to slavery and assigned to the Ministry of Industry as professional craftsmen. All their property was confiscated and their family members did not need to sit together. As long as they produced research results and performed meritorious services, they would have the possibility of demobilization.
.”
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
"Well! From now on, all corruption crimes in Ming Dynasty will be carried out according to this example."
"Yes! Your Majesty! I know!"
After Maha went down to do some work, Suning looked at the angry Zhu Chongba in a funny way, but Suning directly asked Liu Bowen and Zou Pusheng, who had been thoughtfully beside him, "How did the two dear ladies treat me?"
How does it feel?"
"Your Majesty, I also agree that Zhu's way of governing is more appropriate." Zou Pusheng also came from a miserable background, so he also hated corrupt officials.
"Your Majesty, do you attach great importance to the research and development of the Ministry of Heavy Industry?" Liu Bowen looked at Suning meaningfully.
"Yes! Bowen, you still understand me!" Suning nodded and smiled in agreement, and then expressed his own point of view, "You may think that I am too pedantic, but in fact it is definitely not the case!
These craftsmen in the Ministry of Industry are almost all illiterate, and scholars do not like to get involved in them, and a very few scholars only treat them as their own hobbies, so they will still be said to be miraculous and cunning."
"Haha, since scholars don't like "strange and obscene skills," then I will be an adjuster and first make these scholars who made mistakes into craftsmen."
These people have committed a serious crime of confiscating their families and exterminating their families. Now they are just being reorganized into slaves. There is still hope for survival and change. These corrupt officials will definitely try their best to behave.
"Your Majesty, this plan is far-reaching!" Liu Bowen and the other three finally understood Suning's purpose, and they couldn't help but agree.
"It is impossible to change the Ming Dynasty just by relying on a wealth of economics. Only through the revolution of mechanical manufacturing can we, the Ming Dynasty, be able to completely control the world.
What I mean is to rest and recuperate for a few years first, and then launch a large-scale offensive to the east and west, so that we can plan our foreign policy."
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, the people of the Ming Dynasty have heard that the Queen is compiling medical books, and are preparing to build medical clinics across the country. They are also preparing to spontaneously erect immortality tablets for the Queen!"
"Haha, you are serious!" Suning knew that his ministers deliberately spread the news like this, and of course Suning would accept the favor of his ministers.
"Bo Wen, Song Lian is dealing with the matter of opening schools and compiling textbooks across the country. You should keep an eye on it and don't let him invent some pedantic experts on classics for me."
"Yes! Your Majesty! I will definitely pay attention to this matter.
However, I believe that Song Lian is a measured person and should know His Majesty’s thoughts.”
"Hmph! That's not true!
I heard that people from the Kong family in Shandong have been in frequent contact with Song Lian recently?
Do I not know what their plans are?"
"Eh? Your Majesty, the Kong family is very uncooperative in the matter of dividing the children into their own land. How should we deal with it?"
"The Kong family is demonstrating against us, forcing us to change the national policy of dividing a small family into a small family, and continue to confer the title of Duke Yan of the Confucian family." Of course, Suning could understand the Kong family's intentions, and then showed a sneer, "Zhu Yizheng
!”
"I'm here!"
"I order you to go to Qufu, Shandong. For the serious crime of colluding with the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty and resisting the national policy, the Kong family will be directly demoted to common people, and all their property will be confiscated. The Kong family will not be able to study or participate in the imperial examination for generations."
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
"Ah? Your Majesty, wouldn't this be too..." Liu Bowen couldn't help but persuade.
"Haha, what's too cruel? Too cruel and tyrannical?" Suning looked at Liu Bowen with a sneer, "You must know that the Yan Shenggong of their Kong family was canonized by Meng Yuan. Is it wrong to say that they colluded with Meng Yuan?"
"Of course, I've always been reasonable.
Zhu Yizheng, just tell them clearly.
If you want to continue serving as an official and studying, you must be patient and inventive. As long as the Kong family has made meritorious deeds, the name of Duke Yan will be returned to them, and the wealth and status will continue to be enjoyed by them."
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
Only then did Liu Bowen and others realize that Emperor Hong Zhao was waiting for the Kong family here. This was because Emperor Hong Zhao took a fancy to the leadership of the Kong family in the literary world. If the Kong family yielded to Suning's request to create inventions, other scholars would never
Let’s talk about the objections.
At this time, everyone who understood Emperor Hong Zhao's intentions couldn't help but admire in their hearts. It was really that Emperor Hong Zhao's methods were too clever, and every step had its own clear purpose.
...
Emperor Hong Zhao Suning came to the Ministry of Industry, bringing with him skilled craftsmen gathered from all over the country. Some of them were engaged in carving gold and silver jewelry, there were also master carvers who made "ghost ball", and of course there were leaders in various other handicraft industries.
When these masters were summoned among the people, it still caused quite a stir in the Ming Dynasty, because the people did not know the truth and kept guessing.
"Why did Emperor Hong Zhao suddenly summon so many skilled craftsmen?"
"What else can you do?
He must have thought the crown was too rough and asked masters from all over the country to work together to make the best one."
"Huh? Why is what I heard different from yours?
What I heard is that Emperor Hong Zhao was very much in love with the Empress. It happened that during this time the Empress was busy compiling medical books, and Emperor Hong Zhao was going to make a rare phoenix crown and give it to the Empress."
"Ah? No wonder!
Our empress is the most beautiful woman in the world, and her heart is the reincarnation of Guanyin, so she is definitely worthy of the love of Emperor Hong Zhao."
"Yes! It is really good news for our people that we can be protected by the Queen.
A few days ago, my son suddenly suffered from convulsions. If it hadn't been for the medical clinic opened by the Queen, he might have been unable to recover."
"Well! It seems that we need to go home immediately to set up an immortal tablet for the Queen!"
"Yes! What a great idea! Let's go together! Let's go together!"
Suning looked at the many skilled craftsmen in front of him, and looked at their cautious faces, and couldn't help but smile. These are the fundamentals of whether China can rise in the future.
"Masters, don't be nervous, I want to show you something!" Suning explained to the nervous craftsmen, and then nodded to the eunuchs, "Bring it up!"
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
Under the curious gaze of the skilled craftsmen, the eunuchs brought up a charcoal stove and a kettle filled with water. When everyone was puzzled, Emperor Hong Zhao just asked the eunuchs to boil the water directly.
Everyone was confused by Emperor Hong Zhao's actions, but no one dared to question him. They all followed Emperor Hong Zhao "boringly" and looked at the stove that was boiling water.
Suning saw that the skilled craftsman in front of him was confused, so he just smiled silently and did not explain anything for the time being. After a while, the water in the kettle boiled, and the lid of the kettle was buzzing with steam.
.
Suning suddenly looked at everyone with a smile, "Everyone, have you seen it?"
"Ah?" Everyone was confused by Suning's question.
"Haha, I'm asking you what did you see?"
"What? You didn't see anything?" Every skilled craftsman lamented in his heart, but no one dared to say it out loud.
Seeing that these skilled craftsmen did not understand what he meant, Suning shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly. Just when he was about to explain something, suddenly an inaudible voice came from a large corner.
"The water vapor made the lid move!"
"Huh? Who is talking? Stand up and say it loudly." Suning suddenly felt an unexpected joy.
The person speaking in the corner was the master of "Ghost Ball" who came from Guangzhou. He quickly stood up in fear and said, "Your Majesty, the vapor from the boiling water made the lid of the kettle move."
"Yes! Not bad! That's what it means!"
"I have called you here just to let you build a machine that relies on water vapor to produce power, just like a horse-drawn cart, where horses provide power.
In other words, I ask you to use this water vapor instead of horses to provide power for the car."
"Ah?" Only then did everyone vaguely understand. Fortunately, Emperor Hong Zhao's explanation was straightforward enough, otherwise they might not be able to even vaguely understand.
Suning also knew that it would be a bit difficult for them to understand everything at once, so he patiently explained the principles to them in a straightforward manner, and finally took out the steam engine blueprints that he and his Queen Liu had made together over the past few days.
"Everyone, this is the drawing of the machine. I ask you to make it according to the drawing. I named this machine a steam engine."
"Steam engine?" Everyone looked curiously at the detailed drawings provided by Emperor Hong Zhao.
Suning believes that Chinese craftsmen are not inferior to Western scientists, but Chinese craftsmen are just satisfying the arrogance and extravagance of the nobles, and have no energy and mind to focus on research and creation.
The steam engine is the most suitable machine for the era of the early Ming Dynasty. With the inspiration of myself, a latecomer, skilled craftsmen will definitely make a steam engine.
Looking at the busy craftsmen, Suning smiled silently, then left here with his eunuch, and then went to another place in the Ministry of Industry.
The craftsmen here are busy. They look at the fine parts on the table and prepare to completely imitate them. These are all the parts of the AK47 provided by Suning.
Although the material does not meet the standards of later generations, Suning still hopes to inspire them. If it can reach 30% of the power of later generations of guns, it will be the biggest improvement in the early Ming Dynasty.
...
Emperor Hong Zhao Suning had been busy all day. Just as he was about to return to the harem, Liu Bowen called out, "Your Majesty, something big has happened!"
"Bowen, what's wrong? What happened?" Emperor Hong Zhao looked at Liu Bowen in confusion.
"Your Majesty, Xu Shouhui of Goryeo and Ni Wenjun are fighting."
"What? You are really a guy who can't serve dog meat at the banquet." He thought that if Xu Shouhui and Ni Wenjun ran to Goryeo, there would be no more historical fights. "Bo Wen, let Hu Dahai lead 50,000 troops to cross the sea to guard Goryeo!"
"Yes! Your Majesty!" Liu Bowen was now accustomed to Emperor Hong Zhao's orders and still expressed his worries, "Your Majesty, will fifty thousand officers and soldiers be too few?"
"Haha, just like Xu Shouhui's chickens and dogs, fifty thousand officers and soldiers are too many!"
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
"Also, draft an appointment document and appoint Chen Youliang as the Provincial Envoy of Korea and Hu Dahai as the Chief Military Officer of Korea. Zhang Dingbian responded that Tianfu had other arrangements."
"Ah? What if Chen Youliang and Zhang Dingbian don't accept the appointment?
After all, they still haven’t acknowledged their ownership issue with our Ming Dynasty.”
"Haha, Chen Youliang and Zhang Dingbian are not fools. They should know that Goryeo is a Jedi. Whether they can stay safely in Goryeo depends on my Ming Dynasty's face."
"Well! What about Xu Shouhui and Ni Wenjun?"
"Haha, Bowen, do you think they both still have hope of survival?
Believe it or not, the fierce fighting in Korea will end soon, and Chen Youliang and Zhang Dingbian will be the biggest beneficiaries."
"Yes! Your Majesty! I will go down and take charge of this matter."
Suning was very satisfied when she saw Xu Shouhui and the others going to Goryeo. As long as they were willing to strive for success and no longer just care about their own affairs, Suning didn't mind them being alone overseas, and would even help them if possible. But
What disappoints Suning is that they are still so selfish and end up fighting with each other.
So Suning made up his mind to deal with them. Xu Shouhui and Ni Wenjun had no other way to survive except death. If Chen Youliang did not accept the appointment of the Ming Dynasty, what awaited them would be the Ming Dynasty's army, and Hu Dahai's 50,000 army was not going on a trip.
of.
Zhang Dingbian, the most powerful general in the late Yuan Dynasty, has always been coveted by Suning. This time, he has an excuse to bring him over. After all, it is more suitable for such a fierce man to be under his command.
Now that the Ming Dynasty has just been founded, it can just take a while to recuperate and recuperate. At this time, there are no border conflicts in the outside world, so as to accumulate strength for the next expansion plan of the Ming Dynasty.
Chahan Tiemur and Wang Baobao were finally tamed by Suning and kept in a dark room all day long. Both Chahan Tiemur and Wang Baobao felt that life was worse than death. When the Emperor of Yuan Dynasty removed his title, he was
Emperor Hong Zhao of the Ming Dynasty was conferred the title of King of Mongolia, and the father and son surrendered to the Ming Dynasty.
There was no discrimination against Suning, an old minister and general of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty. They were treated equally with all Han generals, except that all soldiers were unified and disrupted, and then underwent unified training and education.
In the Ming Dynasty, generals were only leaders who led troops in combat, while another system in the army was responsible for logistics and training. Coupled with the large number of military supervision systems in the army, the possibility of rebellion by generals was eliminated.
The current supervisory army has been established at the company level. It always pays attention to the ideological problems of Ming soldiers. At the same time, it insists on uniform payment of wages by the Ming royal bank. This also blocks the connection between soldiers and generals to the greatest extent, and there will be no embezzlement by generals.
