Snowflakes are flying again. It's New Year's Eve all over Tokyo. Fireworks and firecrackers are all over the city. Every household has pasted red spring couplets with the word "Fu" to welcome the New Year. Zhu Yihai, who drives away the Nian beast, holds up the wine glass in the water and says, "Come on."
, raise a glass!”
Song Zhipu, Chen Hui, Xia, Dafu and others all stood up and toasted together. In addition, Wang Xiang Wang An, Wang Zhongyuan Yesan, Wang Zhiren, Wang Mingqian and his son, Zhang Mingzhen, Zhang Mingyang, Zhang Mingyang, Zhang Mingjia, four brothers, Zhang Huangyan, Qian Sule, and his brother-in-law Dong Zhining.
Liu father and son, Wu Kai father and son, brothers Zheng Zunqian, brothers Zhang Yi and other generals also stood up to toast Shen Wenzhong, and Yang Boxing also said "Do it!"
Everyone drank it all in one drink. On the ice boat on the small sea in Peng Palace, the emperor entertained a group of soldiers from eastern Zhejiang and drank it all in one glass. Zhu Chenggong, Zhu Shengli, Zhu Zhongyi, Zhu Fei, and Zhu Dingguo were the adopted sons of the five emperors.
, came up and poured the wine for everyone. The guide Zhu Yihai smiled and asked a few young people on the side to pour the wine together. The eldest prince Wang Jia, the third prince Han Wang, and the emperor heard the decree and held the pot to pour the wine. Last year at this time, the emperor still had no children.
At that time, I was even thinking about Sun. Who would have thought that now the emperor has not only recovered the nine princes born to the kings of Jin, Tang, and Song who were expelled from Chen, Zhang, and Huang, but now the emperor now has seven princes and five adopted sons.
The eldest prince was thirteen years old, and the third prince was twelve. After this period of time, his temperament had changed greatly. At this time, the emperor entertained a group of Zhejiang Dongyuan followers.
In the month of August, the summer heat continued to consume me, and Niha, the Northern envoy, was bullied to Taizhou. When I raised an army in anger, I still remember the day when the king led dozens of brave veterans to fight in front of the Ziyang Palace. At that time, we could not bear to retreat and had no choice but to retreat. At that time,
I never thought I would be here today!"
As he said that, the emperor stretched out his wine glass and asked his uncle Nanyang Wang Zhujian to pour him another glass of wine. He walked up to the king and said, "Chuangzi, I want to toast you with this cup. It was you who stood up and defeated the bully who came to the door that day.
You are the leader of the uprising. Wang Chuangzi, now a hereditary Duke, with the title of Governor-General of the Left, and a rank-first cavalry general, stood up quickly, held the wine glass in both hands, and asked the king to fill a glass of Shaoxing daughter's red wine for him. "
At first, I was just a defeated army, like a lost dog. I asked me to wait for the kills. The confused minister suddenly became cheerful and found his direction again. In the past few years, the number of soldiers under my command has increased, and the number of kills has increased.
More and more people were killed, including several sub-leaders, counselors, and even the guard commander Melezhang, Jinggu Shanerzhen, but the Niha who was killed that year was the most unforgettable one for me. Zhu Yihai clinked glasses with Wang Xiang. At that time, Taizhou Linhai,
Who knew that this business venture would be so successful? Although the world has not yet been restored, it can already be said to be a success. Zhu Yihai also lived up to his mistreatment of Wang Chuangzi. Now he is the commander-in-chief of the left army in the imperial camp, and his position is inherited from Huang Degong's Duke.
, the scattered officials have also reached the top of the military ministers, and there are still 1,200 households with real seals, and the rewards they have received in the past few years are countless. His two adopted sons, Wang Zhongyuan and Wang An, are now chief military officers, and he is also the uncle.
His wife, Na An, gave birth to five sons and six daughters in just a few years. This life can be said to be very successful. Although the king has not been with the emperor most of the time in recent years, he has faithfully performed his loyalty and duties.
, firmly supports the emperor. The emperor's current achievements are also indispensable for his strong support. Among the veterans of the Yongwei camp, there are now generals like Zhang Quan, the admiral of the second town of the imperial camp. The others who are not dead are at least as bad as they are.
It's a guerrilla, it's called Conglong Zhigong, it's called Yuan Yicong. Although the official system has changed greatly now, the scattered officials have restored the system of the Tang Dynasty, and even the positions are basically restored to the system of the Tang Dynasty. Compared with the original treatment of the Ming Dynasty, it is far inferior.
Even worse, he is still a dignified prince, right?
To be demoted to the first level, from the prince of the country to the people, it has to be passed down for eight or nine generations. Moreover, where is Wang Chuangzi's background? He was from a military household in Liaodong. To put it bluntly, they were the most miserable group of people in the late Ming Dynasty. They put their heads between
When he was defeated from Hu to Taizhou, he was really just a soldier. The loss of a dog is not an exaggeration. Except for his dead life, he had nothing. His hometown, his hometown, and even his ancestral graves were all taken over by Jizi, and he had nothing.
Wife, children, only a bachelor, a few soldiers brothers who share the same disease, and two adopted sons in the army. Now, the court has rebuilt the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army and is in charge of the fifth army of the Imperial Camp. He, Wang Chuangzi, is the Commander-in-Chief of the Left Army.
, last year the emperor admitted Ci Fujia’s daughter into the palace, Wang Chuangzi also took Ci Fujia’s daughter as his concubine, and even became a company. He had become successful and famous. He was very satisfied with the role now. Several palace assistants were painting quickly.
To paint today's scene, there are not only palace painters from Nanjing, but also Western painters from other places, each with their own techniques.
They were all from the Yongwei camp, and they were all old brothers Wang Chuang. At this time, they all stood up and toasted to the emperor, and drank "Wu!"
Zhu Yihai took out a few banknotes and said, "When I first came to Haimen, I was deeply moved by the saying that I am grateful to the country. Later, I lent him ten thousand taels of silver. I promised to repay the principal and interest in three years, with a profit of three cents.
The IOU states that a total of 20,800 taels are due. After tonight, it will be Shaotian's fourth year. This IOU is about to expire. Well, I paid it back in advance today. This is a banknote of 20,080 taels.
, you can withdraw the notes from the Royal Bank of the Ming Dynasty and exchange them for Haimen at any time. Wu Kai stood up and looked at the bank notes handed over by the emperor. He remembered the ten thousand taels he had lent when he originally lent them.
I once thought that the emperor would return this favor. It took almost three years, but I almost forgot about it. Among the generals from Longyuan, Wu Kai was actually the worst in terms of fighting ability, and he had not fought many battles. In the past few years,
He has been guarding the rear for many years, but although Wu Kai is not good at fighting, he is actually quite good at leading troops to stay behind and so on. He has also completed the task of guarding very well. He even assists local governments in collecting taxes and recruiting troops.
His sons are also deputy generals of the general army. At the beginning, there were 3,000 people in the Haimen camp, and there were only 120 servants. Now, among the 100 or so people, the lowest living person is a battalion officer. In the army, the same is true for the Haimen camp.
The emperor on Hill 1 did not treat him badly. Wu Kai is now the general logistics minister of the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion, and his status is quite good. The casual officer is the second-rank auxiliary general, and his military rank is the right governor. He is Wu Guogong, hereditary, and has the title of Thousand
He has become even fatter in the past few years, like a brown bear that was bitten and swollen after stealing honey, but he is still quite trustworthy in the emperor's eyes.
, is he the one who doesn’t keep his word?”
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Wu Kai said with a smile: "Actually, although I haven't stolen, robbed or embezzled anything in the past few years, my business has become prosperous.
There are a lot of people offering rewards, and my family has some foundation. In the past few years, those who have invested money in mining, merchants, and merchants have made a lot of money. Following the investment of shares in arsenals, shipyards, etc., the income has been very generous. I guess I
The current scholar is also rich. "Of course I know that you are rich now, but one code is one code. This is borrowed and must be paid back. You can't let your words be broken. Accept Wu Kai and take it. "I hope to collect this bank note.
, never exchanged, left to descendants, passed down from generation to generation, Zhu Yihai reminded Wu Kai, this banknote is not exchanged for coupons, but equivalent to a check. Such large amounts have a valid exchange period of ninety days, and they will be invalidated after expiration.
But Wu Kai smiled and said that the silver note had the following signature, which was far more than 20,800 silver dollars. He also said that he still kept the calligraphy treasure Zhongxiao heirloom given to him by the emperor before, and now they happened to be collecting it together, and Zhu Yihai knew it.
Wu Kai is indeed quite rich. He borrowed 10,000 yuan at the beginning, which was considered as borrowing half of his net worth. It was not easy. However, he later followed Zhu Yihai and did not lose money. Except that it was difficult at the beginning, but after opening up the situation, the money came.
There were more channels, such as selling tea and selling salt, selling silk weavers, and even Zhu Yihai later established an arsenal and shipyard in Zhoushan. He also attracted ministers, and Wu Kai and others invested money in shares. This was not only to raise funds, but also extremely important.
Good project dividends are all extremely profitable projects. Other projects such as foreign trade companies, maritime trade fleets, etc., will return several times just by investing in shares, not to mention they will open mines and workshops, and they will even take advantage of the chaos to acquire some fields, tea mountains, etc.
Wait, anyway, the advantage of having status is that their interests can be guaranteed and will not be misappropriated. Zhu Yihai has run many industries in the past few years and has made a lot of money. Wu Kai and the others are also similar. He knows this very well, but for Zhu Yihai
, in fact, he intentionally pulled them into a partnership. Firstly, some projects did require relatively large start-up capital, such as cannon casting, shipbuilding, maritime trade, or even mining and iron smelting, etc. In addition, he guided these people to invest money together, and they made profits.
Generous, in fact, it is not harmful to North Korea. For example, it is precisely because so many dignitaries who are now in power are engaged in maritime trade, industry and commerce, etc., that North Korea is also relatively active and open in terms of policies. Of course, these close ministers, with so many fair and legal
After increasing their income, it will naturally reduce their possibility of corruption. "Yue Guogong!"
Zhu Yihai also gave Wang Zhiren a silver note to pay him back. "I won't show it." Wang Zhiren is now the Duke of Yue, the governor of the Right Army Governor's Mansion, and his son Wang Mingqian is also the admiral of the town. At that time, Wang Mingqian was relatively young and served under Zhang Guozhu.
He made mistakes in the past and lost Dinghai City, but after several years of experience, he actually gained merit in battle and grew into a very stable young man. Zhu Yihai returned Wang Zhiren's daughter to the palace, and Wang Mingqian became Zhu Yihai's brother-in-law. Although Wang Zhiren initially relied on his eunuch brother
He started his career, but as the biggest supporter of the military when Zhu Yihai started his army, he has been a figure in the military for the past few years. To such a Yuan, Zhu Yihai could not only make him the Duke of his country, but also his son.
It can only be a place to reward money, and finally he brought his daughter into the palace. A few years ago, Zhu Yihai didn't like this kind of political marriage. When Huang took the initiative to propose a marriage and sent his daughter here, he was still very unhappy. In the past two years,
However, he has already begun to actively and extensively marry the Qi ministers, Zheng Zhilong, Yan Keying, Shi Daxuan, Huang, Chen Hui, Song Zhipu, Xia, Zhang Guowei, Chen Qianfu Zhiren, Jia, Zhu Dadian, Liangyu, Zhang, Wen Anzhi, Shi
, Mao You, Huang Daozhou, Liu Zongzhou, Fang Fengnian...
Years ago, there were only about ten people in Zhu Yihai's harem. But by this time, there were more than 30 people in the harem. They even admitted the king of Korea and asked the king's daughter to enter the palace. Even the daughter of King Mongolia and Tehan was included in the palace.
, and even took the initiative to send envoys to Annan to find the king of Li, Lord Zheng, Lord Wu, and the patron saint of Annan. At the same time, they asked the great scholars, prime ministers, six ministers, governors of the five armies, and local officials to send women to the palace.
Governors and governors, unless they had no suitable daughters or granddaughters, Zhu Yihai would take the initiative to propose marriage to the emperor. This sudden change was actually quite surprising. However, the ministers actually found it difficult to refuse such active requests, and they even had no reason to refuse.
, the emperor did not hold any national drafts, and directly took the initiative to marry ministers. This was of course not a bad thing, as it would help stabilize the political relations in the court. However, Zhu Yihai did not actually become addicted to the beauties of the harem, he just adopted this method.
A political strategy to stabilize the current court. As the Northern Expedition became more and more successful and ZTE was in sight, Zhu Yihai actually became more and more cautious in adjusting the political forces in the DPRK and China to minimize internal conflicts. When external threats became smaller and smaller,
Internal conflicts will inevitably begin to rise. He is now building Chongwen and Wen Er Pavilion, which is actually to increase the welfare of the children of princes, princes and ministers. In addition, he is building a women's pavilion in the palace to recruit the daughters of princes, princes and ministers. In the future, he will also provide
Their marriage is also a way to integrate internal factions. There are no factions in the party, and there are all kinds of strange things. Even if Zhu Yihai continues to oppose party struggle, factions are everywhere. There are people who form local parties based on regions, and there are people who are appointed by the imperial examination, and the same ranking.
Those of teachers and friends, as well as those of the army, were divided into towns and villages. Anyway, there were various factions, and they even intertwined with each other and married ministers. The most important thing was of course to strengthen the authority of the emperor and control the power. However, Zhu Yihai never forced
For others, he will take the initiative to propose marriage, but allows the other party to refuse, but no one has refused yet.
