Chapter 1106 Yiwu Celebration Banquet - Royal Family
"According to the imperial edict of Emperor Tianyun, Qian Shi, the governor of the Chinese Army's Dudu Mansion, was given the title of deputy general Zhang Fu, and led troops to pursue the defeated soldiers of the Western Capsules..., and was granted the title of Guazhou Bo. It is hereditary, and he is honored to do so."
"..., Tongshi Shiren was joined by General Yang Feng, and he commanded the five superior guards including the government army, and defeated the Western captives,..., and was granted the title of Anding Bo. It is hereditary, and he is honored to be hereditary."
"... Zhu Hengshi, the commander of the Baiyi Guards,... has been granted the title of hereditary commander. I express my gratitude for this."
…
Yun did not disappoint everyone. The rewards this time were indeed very generous. Only four hereditary titles were awarded. If Song Dynasty was not Song Sheng's son, he would probably be awarded five. It has been more than 30 years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, but there has never been one because of one
In this war, so many princes were sealed.
In addition, in addition to being awarded the title of Spyker, there are also many other rewards. Not many people directly receive gold and silver, but most people get a lot of high-quality silks and satins and other rare things, which ordinary people can't see in ordinary times.
.
Therefore, everyone was very excited. From time to time, some people knelt on the ground and shouted loudly: "I thank your Majesty for your kindness. Long live your Majesty! Long live your Majesty!" After all the awards were read out, everyone knelt down again and shouted three times in unison.
"All my dear friends, please get up." Yun said with a smile: "All my dear friends, you are all meritorious ministers of our Ming Dynasty. I will reward you for your merits and punish you for your mistakes. Your merits will be worthy of your rewards."
He then said: "Today is a celebration banquet for all the meritorious ministers. Since the imperial edicts on the awards have been read out, it's time to start the banquet." Then he gave Gao Xiang a wink.
After receiving Yun's signal, Gao Xiang immediately ordered the dishes to be served. Countless waiters reappeared, carrying plates with lids in their hands, walking in and placing them on each table. After a while, the venue was filled with the aroma of food, attracting people's fingers.
Big move.
Yun raised his glass and drank with everyone, then picked up the food and started eating. Everyone present could no longer bear it and started eating.
Yun called all the princes who came to the northwest for this battle to sit together, raised the wine glasses in their hands and said to them: "Thirteenth uncle, fourteenth uncle, nineteenth uncle, brother Ji, brother Shang Bing, Ji Ye
Brothers, brothers Shang Lie, we were able to defeat the Xilu so smoothly in this battle, thanks to the efforts of all uncles and brothers."
"Brother Imperial, this should be said by a younger brother." Shang Bing said with a smile: "Although we are all members of the royal family, we are also ministers of Brother Huang. Shouldn't ministers obey the orders of the Emperor? On the contrary, Yi
I am my brother's fief, so I should be grateful to you uncles and brothers for coming to my rescue."
"Thank you so much to Uncle Thirteen, Uncle Fourteen, Uncle Nineteen, Brother Ji, Brother Ji Ye, and Brother Shang Lie!" After saying this, Shang Bing drank the wine in the cup.
"Shang Bing, what you said is very polite. We are all a family. There is no need to say thank you or not!" "That is, the family said that Xie was separated." "Brother, I am the eldest brother's younger brother, and my family is in Yiwu.
"It's your duty to do your best, and I don't dare to thank my elder brother." Everyone said one after another. Shang Bing naturally had another set of words.
"You don't have to be humble to be humble." Yun interjected: "This battle is not only for the Ming Dynasty, for the Han people to have more land, but also for our Zhu family to rule a larger place. It is all for our own family.
People, there is no point in being so humble."
"That's what the emperor said," Ji said with a smile: "It's all for our family, there's nothing to thank you for. Cheers!" He raised the wine glass in his hand to signal. Several other people also quickly raised their wine glasses to drink, even Yun Yun said with a smile.
No exception.
Yun put down the glass of rice wine in his hand, chatted with them casually, and said to Ji Ye and Shang Lie: "Ji Ye, Shang Lie, you two were still fighting on the front line on the first day of August. Ji Ye
Together with Cao Xing and Song Dynasty, he led the army to bloom, and Shang Lie also commanded the war with Hui Zu. He is truly a role model for my royal family!"
"Brother Huang is so ridiculous!" Ji Ye and Shang Lie immediately stood up and said.
"Brother Huang just said that a family should not thank you back and forth, but your solid contributions cannot be denied. Brother Huang must reward you two. Tell me, what reward do you two want?" Yun said with a smile.
The two of them tried to evade a few words, but Ji Ye first said with a smile: "Since the emperor said so, I will not be polite."
"The emperor's brother has a BMW called Chaoying. I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it. But because the emperor seemed to like it, I didn't dare to ask for it. Now that the emperor said this, I take the liberty to ask the emperor for it.
I want this horse."
"Chaoying?" Yun thought for a while before he remembered this horse. Although he named his eight good horses after King Zhou Mu's eight horses, he only rode one or two on weekdays, and the others were used.
not much.
"Since you like it, the emperor will give it to you!" Yun said generously.
"Thank you, Brother Huang." Ji Ye said immediately.
After rewarding Ji Ye, Yun turned to look at Shang Lie. However, Shang Lie did not immediately say what he wanted like Ji Ye did. Instead, he hesitated for a long time and finally said: "Brother Emperor, can I please ask Brother Emperor?"
Give me a small fire gun carried by my royal brother? My brother is very interested in fire guns."
"Of course you can, but the emperor brother only has this one with you now. I will ask someone to give you one in the next few days." This time Xi Zhengyun brought some craftsmen who made fire guns.
"Thank you, Brother Huang." Shang Lie also said.
But Yun took another look at him when he heard this. Shang Lie's tone really didn't sound like he was very happy about the reward. He should have something else he wanted. But why didn't he say it?
Now that there are so many people, Yun has no time to ask, so he can only pretend not to notice and chat with the people around him. His contemporary Wang Zhugui said: "Uncle Thirteen has been in power in Datong these years and has governed Datong well."
"Hey, the people's livelihood in Datong is taken care of by the prefect. I've never had to take care of it. In Datong, I only lead troops to fight and other things."
"Datong is not far from the Mongolian grassland. Every year, a few Mongolians come south to plunder. The garrison in the north of Datong cannot build a continuous wall, and people are robbed every year."
"Is it impossible to stop it?" Ji Ye asked: "Behead all those who come to plunder and hang their heads! Scare them."
"It's not much use." Zhu Gui said: "The Mongols are too poor and have no craftsmen. They can't even make their own iron pots. The Mongolian grasslands don't produce tea. Even some small tribes can't participate in the mutual trade. Although I hate them very much.
, but I have to say that if we want to completely ban southbound looting, we cannot rely on the current methods alone."
"Then what does Uncle Thirteen think we should do? Increase mutual trade?" Yun asked.
"Increasing mutual trade is not very useful. Large tribes will block small tribes so that they cannot participate in mutual trade. Even if they participate, it will be difficult to bring things back."
