Inside the Harem Cining Palace.
The empress dowager just received great news that Jiangnan Xiu Nv had arrived in the capital and was about to enter the palace.
Since ancient times, beautiful women have appeared in the south of the Yangtze River, especially the generation in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Xishi is the most typical representative of this place.
They are always beautiful, and each one is good at qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, and various ditties are also good at it.
The first batch of beautiful girls to enter the palace, the emperor only favored Liu Ruyue alone, which means that the quality of the first batch of beautiful girls to enter the palace is not high.
After hearing the news, the Empress Dowager still gave instructions as soon as possible.
“It seems that this time Aijia will personally go to the draft for Zhao’er. Zhaoyi’s eyes are not suitable for Zhao’er’s aesthetics.”
“The slaves will all accompany the empress dowager and give the empress dowager’s counselor…”
They haven’t entered the palace for the time being. After they come in, I will let you go to the staff.
…..
Inside the Golden Palace.
The civil and military officials were all excited because of the victory at the front line of Datong Mansion.
Zhu Houzhao circulated the front-line report, and asked every minister to read it carefully.
“The leader of the Warat general was shot and killed on the spot and died in the chaos of the army…”
When Zhu Houzhao and the ministers read this one by one, they cried with joy, because many deeds of participating in the Tumu Fort were still vivid in my mind.
This time, it’s a shame!
All this is due to the present His Majesty.
If it weren’t for the wise decision of His Majesty today, I am afraid that I would still have to tighten my belt to live.
Even, many people have to think about being invaded by foreigners at any time.
Let Daming have undergone earth-shaking changes and reproduce the glory of the past, all of which depend on having a good emperor!
“The shame of Tumubao has been washed in blood for them, and now, our ancestors can rest in peace!”
“Those soldiers who died in the war can also rest their eyes!”
Some ministers knelt on the ground one after another and began to cry. Zhu Houzhao did not stop them from doing so, because the deep feelings are naturally strong, and these people really felt that today’s peace was hard-won.
The humiliation of the Tumu Fort in those days was not only the humiliation of the imperial court, but also the humiliation of the entire Ming Dynasty.
This time, the shame was completely washed away, and those foreign forces were attacked. This is a battle that will go down in history forever in the entire Ming Dynasty.
The anger that the ministers had suppressed in their hearts for a long time was all vented.
Zhu Houzhao glanced at the ministers and said: “My dear friends, the shame of the Tumu Fort in those days will be cleaned together today, but this does not mean that peace will definitely come, you must always remember my words, if I am here, Daming It would be so sorry for the ancestors to stop moving forward.”
“Only by self-encouragement can I make Daming a real kingdom of heaven!”
“All of this is not only decided by me alone, but also depends on all the loving gentlemen, so that I will always stand in the East.”
Zhu Houzhao’s remarks immediately made all the ministers excited, and the civil and military officials fell to their knees in unison, and replied in unison: “The ministers will follow His Majesty’s teachings!”
After the dynasty was dispersed, Zhu Houzhao stopped Qi Jingtong by himself, and he wanted to continue to ask for advice from this territorial official who had seen a lot of the world.
In the back garden, Qi Jingtong followed Zhu Houzhao to the place where the Marquis of Tiedan was summoned last time.
“What else did you find out?” Zhu Houzhao asked.
Qi Jingtong thought about Zhu Houzhao’s words seriously. Now, he wants to tell the young emperor more of what he has to say. If he misses this opportunity, he may never have another chance in the future.
It’s not that he didn’t know the difficulty of the reform of the Ming Dynasty. The biggest resistance belonged to the following aristocratic families. In addition, it was the power of the following vassal kings.
Now, taking advantage of the land and power in his hands, the vassal kings are slowly hoarding their own strength. While the vassal kings are constantly seeking dividends, they are constantly increasing the power in their hands, and then oppressing the good.
Thinking of this, Qi Jingtong cupped his hands and said, “Go back to Your Majesty, in the opinion of the ministers, apart from the deceased families, the most dangerous outside are the vassal kings of various places.”
“What? Are the vassal kings also making trouble?” Zhu Houzhao thought of his uncle Tiedan Shenhou, and what he was most afraid of was chaos within the royal family.
In the case of Emperor Jianwen, he was too soft-hearted towards his uncles and vassals, or else the course of history would have changed.
I saw Qi Jingtong shook his head and said, “Go back to your majesty, the vassal kings of various places did not make trouble, but they are using the power and special status in the hands of each place, often expropriating land and cargo ships outside for smuggling, and even forcing some unscrupulous businessmen to make profits for them.”
“Are they just bullying some businessmen?”
If you just bully some businessmen, that’s fine, anyway, in the eyes of the common people, except for some kind people, other businessmen are not good things.
Although Zhu Houzhao didn’t have much affection for these businessmen, and at the same time he couldn’t say how much he hated them, if it wasn’t for the fact that these people still had some useful value, Zhu Houzhao really wanted to issue a decree right now, which would remove the grind and kill the donkey.
After earning enough money from Daming, and then reinvesting all this money into the country and confiscating their homes, wouldn’t it kill two birds with one stone?
“But…”
When I heard Qi Jingtong say important things, I stopped for a while, knowing that what I was going to say next was also the key point, so I stopped interrupting Qi Jingtong’s words.
“However, Your Majesty, these are not the most terrifying. The most terrifying thing is that the firearms that these vassal lords don’t know where they got from are full of firepower, and there are even many artillery pieces inside, which are of excellent quality. And they have dedicated gunners, which is the scariest part!”
After Zhu Houzhao heard this, he frowned tightly.
What exactly is going on? The Ministry of Industry has never leaked the principle and machinery of making artillery. Is there still an expert in the world?
“Is there a tiger squatting gun in the hands of the vassal?”
“Yes, and there are a lot of them.”
This Daming standard weapon is the tiger squat gun, and the Shenwu artillery that has just been developed has not been put into use on a large scale.
“Are all these artillery pieces smuggled in?” A thought flashed into Zhu Houzhao’s mind.
When he heard the word artillery, a light flashed in his mind, doing business within the scope of Daming, you can also carry artillery, and you can install it on the ship, but these are all registered.
It is impossible for these vassal kings to have standard weapons. If they did, it would be a bit scary.
What is the problem in that part?
The emperor is very disgusted with the possession of weapons by the vassal. Although there are some regulations in the Daming royal family that the vassal must have certain weapons for self-protection, the weapons are too complicated, or they simply have artillery~www.readmtl.com~ It is not a good thing.
“You mean, they have the standard weapons in the army?” Zhu Houzhao’s voice was obviously a little weak, this must be someone who secretly did the arms business.
Smuggling is impossible, because many of the techniques of foreigners are still secretly learned from China.
The king has artillery in his hands, so what are they going to do?
“I still don’t know too much about the vassal kings in various places. When you come back, stay with me and give me a serious analysis. Especially if you see the vassal kings with standard weapons, I will deal with them properly.”
Zhu Houzhao turned around and said to Xiao Fangzi who was beside him: “It is said that Cao Zhengchun will come to see me immediately! Make no mistake!”
“According to the order!”
