Chapter 325: Criticism (2)

 Criticizing memorials is an extremely hard task, but if you have a beautiful woman by your side, you won’t feel tired at all.

"Your Majesty, I have prepared a bowl of white fungus soup for you, take a sip to moisten your throat." Zhu Hengjia was reviewing the memorial, and the sweet voice of Queen Shi came.

After taking a sip of the sweet soup, my heart felt hot, "The queen is waiting for me, I will approve it in an hour."

Queen Shi blushed, stretched out a pair of jade-like catkins, and massaged his head and cervical spine.

"Queen, use your left shoulder a little harder! Oops, use a lighter right shoulder!"

We are an old married couple, so there is nothing to be embarrassed about. While enjoying the massage, Zhu Hengjia actually gave instructions.

While the husband was singing and the wife was enjoying herself, he suddenly became happy "Hahaha".

"Why is Your Majesty laughing?"

"Sun Gui, the Marquis of Dinghai, said that hundreds of thousands of reinforcements from the Tatars have arrived in the north of the Yangtze River. It has been half a month since I took the throne, and the reinforcements from the Tatars just arrived. Could it be that they knew that I had ascended the throne and came here to give me gifts? Hahaha!"
"Your Majesty is quite proud of you. The Qing Dynasty actually sent more than 100,000 people to give you gifts." Seeing that the emperor was happy, Queen Shi also made a joke.

When I'm in a good mood, I don't follow the normal routine of reviewing memorials.

Zhu Hengjia wrote a limerick in Sun Guishang's "Please increase the river defense": "The city of Nanjing is blooming, and one hundred thousand soldiers from the north have just arrived. If you send someone to ask the Qing captives, are you sending me treasures?"<

/p>

The so-called sending someone to question the Qing captives was just a joke with Sun Gui. But Sun Gui didn't dare to take it seriously. It was a joke? What kind of joke? You have no joke! The Holy One ordered me to send someone to question the Qing captives. It must be done!

Sun Guizhen sent an unlucky man to Jiangbei and asked the commander of the Qing army, Prince Xinjun Doni: "What are you doing with hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses coming to Jiangbei? Could it be that they knew that the new emperor of the Ming Dynasty had ascended the throne and came here to give him a big gift?"

?"

Doni was furious and ordered someone to beat the unfortunate guy and drive him back to the south of the Yangtze River. Fortunately, Doni had read Nikan's book and knew the principle of "when two countries are fighting, don't kill the envoy", so he was able to save his life.

Saved a life.

??

He Wuzou, a scholar in the cabinet, also went to court and requested that Yang Guowei and other heroes who died for the country be granted the title of posthumous title.

Well, Yang Guowei was the first Conglong minister to support me, and he should indeed be granted the title!

To take a closer look, the heroes who died for the country should be awarded posthumously, but the living heroes should be added to the list? He Wuzuo is reminding me that when the new emperor ascends the throne, he should bestow the title of meritorious officials to appease people's hearts. But he is also afraid that I will misunderstand that he is.

I asked for a seal for myself, so I adopted this tactful way of admonition.

Haha, I thought he was just a nerd who could only write articles, but he turned out to be such a clever person!

However, He Wuzuo had always been outspoken before. Why did he become tactful as soon as I became the emperor? It seems that the greater the power in my hands, the fewer ministers who dare to speak out and remonstrate with me.

!

Suddenly a trace of sadness flashed in Zhu Hengjia's heart, and he commented with a pun in the title book: "I know. You have been in front of me for many years. You should know that I am a straightforward and sincere man, and I will never treat my heroes lightly. I encourage you!"< /p>

Immediately, an order was issued to assign Yang Guowei to the Hengtai Temple. In the Taimiao Temple of the Ming Dynasty, there were fifteen auxiliary halls on each side of the main hall. Among them, the west side hall was dedicated to the statues of heroes with different surnames. Only ministers who had made great contributions to the country could die with the emperor's permission. Then enjoy the treatment of the Ancestral Temple.

He also issued an order to grant iron certificates to honorable ministers and allow them to be hereditary. The dukes, marquises and uncles conferred by Zhu Hengjia in the past were only temporary titles, not worldly titles. Only after receiving iron certificates can they be hereditary and passed down from generation to generation.

In the official history, Qi Wen was the Duke of Dian, Yan Tianfeng was the Duke of Fujian, Fan Youxian was the Duke of Shu, Yan Zungao was the Duke of E, Li Mingzhong was the Duke of Chang, Li Dingguo was the Duke of Qin, Sun Gui was the Duke of Guangdong, Mu Tianbo was the Duke of Guizhou, and Jin Shenghuan was the Duke of Guizhou. The Duke of Yu State, Zheng Cai is the Founding Duke; Sun Kewang is the Pinglu Marquis, Yang Huai is the Zhongyong Marquis, Liu Wenxiu is the Fulu Marquis, Yuan Zongdi is the Jingguo Marquis, Lin Cha is the Fuming Marquis, Yang Fuchen is the Xingye Marquis, and Wang Deren is the Marquis of Jianwu, Gao Minggui as Marquis of Enping, Hao Shangjiu as Marquis of Xintai, Hao Yongzhong as Marquis of Nan'an, Li Laiheng as Marquis of Xingguo, Zhou Hezhi as Marquis of Pingyi, Zhou Rui as Marquis of Min'an, Zhang Mingzhen as Marquis of Dingxi; Yang Wu as Annanbo, Chen Youlong is Yuananbo, Ta Tianbao is Yidubo, Ma Jinzhong is Wuchangbo, Li Yuanyin is Guangchangbo, Bai Wenxuan is Wuchuanbo; He Jiuyi is Ninghaibo, Wang Guoxi is Wujingbo, Zhao Yong is Yixingbo, and Zhang Chengwu is Danyang Bo, Geng Jimao was Zheng Lubo, Sun Guangwei was Nanling Bo, Ruan Jin was Dang Hu Bo, Dynasty Xian was Pingxi Bo, Dong Fangce was Xuan Ping Bo, Luo Chengyao was Baofeng Bo, and Ma Bao was Pucheng Bo.

In addition, there are some honorary ministers who have not been awarded iron certificates, mainly civil servants. Conferring honors to civil servants is mostly an honor and is not hereditary.

Shengguan Shouzhen, Sun Jinding, He Tengjiao, and Du Yinxi became the bachelors of Wenhua Palace; He Wuzhi and Su Guansheng were the bachelors of Wuying Palace; Zheng Feng and Wen Anzhi were the bachelors of Wenyuan Pavilion.

Other civil and military officials are rewarded.

??

Zhu Hengjia's mood was initially a little sad due to He Wuzu's remonstrance, but he soon got better. This is the beauty of reviewing memorials. Reviewing memorials from ministers with different personalities, trying to figure out people's hearts, you can really taste it. The flavors of life!

His confidant, Duke Fan Youxian of the Kingdom of Shu, was dismissed. Fan Youxian was a minister of Conglong. He was straightforward and spoke casually. He first reported on the military situation in Sichuan and said that Wu Sangui and Li Guoying had been frightened by him and Li Dingguo. There is nothing I can do for you, please rest assured. I also said that I hunted a tiger in Sichuan and I couldn’t bear to use the tiger skin, so I specially presented it to you as a gift for your enthronement.

"I only know that Your Majesty is there in my eyes, and I only know that Your Majesty is in my mind. I can't bear to use this tiger skin, so I dedicated it to Your Majesty..." After reading this hot memorial, Zhu Hengjia's heart also became warm. He became excited and replied: "Looking at what you have written, it is so true, so sincere, so true! You are always so brave and loyal, I am very happy! You like wine, don't drink too much. Take good care of your body, and do it for me. It will be effective for several years."

??

Xiao Qi, the left minister of the Ministry of Industry, said that the section from Zhenjiang to Changzhou of the Jiangnan Canal is blocked. Now the national treasury is short of money and food, and the army has captured more than 10,000 Eight Banners prisoners. Can these prisoners be used to dredge the canal? In this way, only meals can be provided to the prisoners.

Just do it and save money.

Zhu Hengjia was delighted when he saw it. He didn't expect that Xiao Qi had such a smart mind and knew how to save money. He replied: "What you said is very good, so I will act accordingly." He also added jokingly, "I didn't expect that you are such a smart person."

Economical".

??

Yu Chao, Minister of the Ministry of War, said to the Prime Minister that it is advisable to take advantage of the strong momentum to completely annihilate the Qing army in Zhejiang.

The reply said: "What you said coincides with mine. I see that Li Benzhen and Hu Maozhen are quite capable of fighting, so I will go with these two men."

Saying that these two people can fight is an excuse. The main reason is that after a series of bloody battles, they want their direct troops to rest. Fighting is a hard job, so let the generals do it.

Li Benzhen was ordered to order 20,000 troops from Hu Maozhen's army to go south to Zhejiang and return to Fujian under the control of Duke Yan Tianfeng.

Yan Tianfeng was also given the power to control the Yang Huai tribe in eastern Zhejiang and the Yuan Zongdi tribe in western Zhejiang, and to invade Zhejiang from the east, south, west and north.

??

Yuan Pengnian, the governor of Fujian, sent a message saying that the three counties of Changle, Fuqing, and Yongfu were hit by floods. Please exempt the three counties from money and food for the year, and open a vassal treasury to provide disaster relief.

The reply said: "It is very commendable to read what you have written, and I will take it as a guide as soon as possible. You are a student of the saint, and you should treat the people with kindness, and you must not die of hunger to carry out the work!"

??

Zhu Hengjia was very angry about this statement from the governor of Changzhou. He said that there was auspiciousness in Changzhou. A farmer found a mountain turtle with six characters on its back: "Great Ming Dynasty Guangwu Ten Thousand Years". He asked you to go to Changzhou to see the auspiciousness.
What kind of bullshit auspiciousness do you think I don’t know? These words were clearly engraved by you. I take care of everything day by day, and review memorials and edicts until night every day. If local officials are like you, these words are nothing, and they harass me with inexplicable memorials.

, Aren’t I going to die from exhaustion?

He replied on the spot: "I have been ordered by heaven, so why do I need to watch for auspiciousness? I work hard and review hundreds of memorials every day. Are you bothering me with your nonsense and trying to exhaust me to death? You are truly a wolf-hearted person!"

??

The memorial from the governor of Changzhou only made Zhu Hengjia a little angry, but the memorial from the clan leader Zhu Renran made him furious.

Zhu Renran said that a monk escaped from Fengyang Mansion and claimed to be the fourth son of Emperor Chongzhen, the Yongwang Zhu Cizheng.
