Haisheng Mingdi

Chapter 694
Yunshanying Village is all after the guards of the original palace, so it is not a village with a surname. Unlike some villages with a family, there are many surnames here.

After nearly 300 years of reproduction, many people were abducted by the Tartars in the previous chaos, and many people fled famine, labor, and taxes. Now, among the nearly [-] families, many of them were brought back by the imperial court. Resettlement of the victims of the people.

With a population of more than 2000, it can be considered a large village.

The village compiled four armors and forty tiles. Today, the captains of the armors and the tiles helped to call the villagers to the drying yard for a meeting. A respected old man, he usually deals with things fairly and speaks with weight.

The bosses are all in their 40s and [-]s, and they lack some prestige compared to them. However, the bosses often go to the Baogong Office and the Township Office, which is not enough when they are old.

Four village elders and four armor chiefs sat in the middle as usual, but today the security chief also came down, and there were also a few soldiers in military uniforms.

The old village head stood up and pressed his hands down, and the villagers quickly quieted down.

"Since the Holy Emperor came back, our life has been getting better and better. We have distributed the land and granted land, and we can still earn wages by working in Huangzhuang, and reduce taxes and avoid debts. We used to borrow usury and so on. They are all interest rate cuts, even the land rent of our former tenant land has been reduced.

Saying that, the old village chief cupped his hands and saluted to the east.

"The sage, Hong En, is now giving us grace again, saying that we will choose clean and good children from our farm households, strong men aged 21 to 16, to be the guards of King Qin and King Han, and also select some girls from farm households. From four to [-] years old, they also entered the two palaces as maids.

If you choose, the monthly silver is one yuan and five, and from the second year onwards, there will be an extra.

After three years as a female baby, the sage can also give marriages to the soldiers of the imperial camp. If she doesn't want to, she can also leave the mansion and go home to marry herself. "

When the old village chief said this, the people below were surprised and delighted.

Not to mention anything else, just one and a half silver dragon emperors for this month is worth it, not to mention working in the palace, they all feel that there is a future.Seeing someone entering the imperial camp as a soldier, the treatment can make a person jealous.

"Everyone be quiet, don't make noise. This is a gift from the sage to us. We have been honored by the folks in the sage's hometown. However, the specific registration requirements are that the boy must be between 21 and 1.6 years old, with a height of more than [-] feet [-] inches ([-] meters) ), good facial features, strong physique, no criminal record, and three generations of innocence."

"There is one more thing, no only child, if there are two or more children in the family, you can choose one child."

"If you click on it, you will be given three Anjia silver dollars and a set of clothes immediately."

Condition is very good.

Villagers can sign up voluntarily, and then the Baochang, Jiachang and village elders will issue guarantee letters and certificates together, proving that the actual family conditions of these people meet the requirements, and they will act as guarantees.

The final qualified ones have to go through the selection of those imperial battalion non-commissioned officers.

Countless young people are eager to try it, and even the girls in the village are full of joy and want to enter the palace. Once the prince sees him, why don't they fly up to the branches and become phoenixes?
Zhu Jie is the personal guard of the four guards, the eleventh grandson of Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, a distant branch of Chu Fan, and a clan that never even had a name in the late Ming Dynasty.

After the promulgation of the Clan Law, he became a member of the imperial family, no longer enjoying the treatment of the clan, and no longer conferring titles and salary, but without that empty name, his actual life is much better.

He settled down in Changsha and was allocated ten acres of land. He found someone to name him according to his generation, and he also received a sum of money from the royal family and An Jiayin from the clan's government.

Soon he was selected as a bodyguard again, went to Beijing to study as a bodyguard, and got another [-] mu of land.

In Tokyo, she was also married by the emperor. The other party was the daughter of a troubled gentry. She was helpless, but she was able to read and write.

As soon as the two met, they felt that they had a good impression, so they got married. He worked as a guard in Tokyo, his wife lived in the military camp, and the land in Changsha was rented out for rent.

Today's Zhu Rongjie is not an officer yet, he has not been sent out yet, but he has also gained qualifications in the personal guard and was promoted to a non-commissioned officer. Now he is a sergeant, and his salary is higher than that of a soldier. If he is released, he will at least be a second-level sergeant major by then. If he can make meritorious service, he may be directly released as an officer from the ninth rank of martial arts.

His future is very good.

Looking at the enthusiastic villagers in front of him, he could feel their emotions at the moment, just like when he was struggling to survive in Hunan, the sudden grace of heaven came and rescued him from the sea of ​​suffering.

The emperor really wanted to recruit guards for the two princes, but it was actually very simple. Not to mention the soldiers of the imperial camp, even if they were selected from the auxiliary camp, or from the provincial camp, foreign towns, regiment training, and postmen, they were all ready-made. , has also received training, and has better physical conditions.

However, the emperor still planned to pick some children from his hometown in Yanzhou to give to the two princes. The children of the tenants are fine.

Be young and simple.

These people are like a blank sheet of paper, more malleable.

The emperor recruited a group of youths from the countryside and handed them over to the two princes, and also asked them to train and train this team with their own hands.I heard that the emperor told the two princes that when they become adults in the future, they will be given border lands and feudal vassals, and let them expand the territory for the imperial court and guard the borders.

So these guards are very important to them in the future.

The big Qiangzi and the second Qiangzi who got the certificate and the guarantee were full of excitement, but the third Qiangzi looked disappointed. Originally, the three brothers should be regarded as three families, but because they have not been separated, so although there are 11 members in their family, But still one.Of the three Qiangzi brothers, one is left, and the other two can sign up.

The third child also wants to sign up, but he is the youngest, and he can't compete with the top two, especially since he is not four feet eight inches tall, so he can't compete if he wants to.

The pole set up by the old man can't be fooled.

The big and second strong who got the guarantee came to Zhu Rongjie and the others with a smile.

The selection is also very simple. Take off your shirt to check your body, and then simply test your strength. Although the villagers are relatively thin, they are not weak in strength.

Big Qiangzi is even more powerful, Shi Suozi can throw flowers.

The top two are also good, picking up two hundred catties can walk like flying.

In the end, Zhu Rongjie stamped on the registration forms of both of them and passed.

"Go over there. There are prepared clothes, shoes, socks and hats. They will give you according to your size. Remember to wash your body before changing. After changing your clothes, you will be given An Jiayin."

Prepared in advance, even brought clothes.

There are nearly 2000 households in Yunshanying Village, with a population of nearly [-]. In the end, only [-] young people were selected as guards, and [-] young girls were selected as maids.

The Big Hadron Brothers are lucky, they were all successfully selected.

When they washed their bodies in the pond at the entrance of the village, they changed into the brand new clothes.

A blue-gray double-breasted Gebu jacket and trousers of the same color, a leather belt, and black cloth shoes. The clothes and trousers are narrow and close-fitting for easy movement. The hat is a fan yang hat.

As soon as the clothes were changed, the whole person was in high spirits.

The villagers looked at this group of young people in the village, and they felt a little afraid to recognize each other, while their parents, brothers and sisters surrounded them happily.

"After you arrive in Yanzhou, when everyone is here, you will divide the battalion and assign it to the two princes to lead.

Now, let's say goodbye to your family members. We won't be able to see each other often in the future, so we can only write letters to go home. "

Silver dollars were brought out.

Each of the selected young men and women will be given five silver dollars to settle down.

For some villagers, this is a lot of money.

Sun Erye was holding nine silver dollars, and the eldest girl of his family also chose it.

"Father, what are you crying about? We're paying off, and we're going to enjoy ourselves. Don't pay back the land loan for this silver dollar. The interest is not much, so it's not worth paying back. Let's talk about the money with the third child first." Regarding marriage, although he is only sixteen, he can give birth to a baby earlier if he talks about it earlier.

The rest is for the second sister to prepare a dowry, find a suitable family, let's not wrong the second sister, we must find a good family, and the family conditions must be good, don't let the second sister go to suffer, let's not be reluctant, set it up Dowry, you can't be worse than others, or you will be angry if you marry in the future, and you won't be able to hold your head up. "

Da Qiangzi confessed to his father and uncles, "Father, take good care of my mother, she has a bad mind, poor, but she is also a hero of our family, without a mother, she is not like our family now."

"Don't worry." Second Master Sun only said three words.

"Don't worry about us, we are going to enjoy the blessings, don't worry, I will definitely become an officer in three to five years."

Uncle Sun held Er Gou's hand, feeling a little bit reluctant. This was adopted by his brother and raised from childhood. Now that he wants to leave him, he feels empty in his heart.

The brothers are most worried about the eldest girl, "Otherwise, forget it, you are a girl's family, we don't worry about it."

But the girl Lancao's heart has already flown out. She has worked in Huangzhuang Workshop for half a year, and she has opened her eyes, knowing that there is a wider world outside.

So she wants to go out.

"Father, I'm going to work in the palace, don't worry, I'll settle down and write you a letter, and I'll send you my wages to send home, and then I'll pay back the money for the land and build a few new houses."

"Your money will be sent back, and we will save it for you. It will be used as a dowry in the future. After three years, you will be seventeen or eighteen years old when you come back."

Lancao never thought that she would come back three years later.

afternoon.

The village also specially made a farewell banquet, thirty men and women, each with a bowl of pork dumplings.

When they left the village, the boys and girls were full of joy, but their family members were weeping while being happy, and many women even cried after them.

There are also their young brothers and sisters chasing after them.

Thirty lucky ones, dressed in big red flowers, bid farewell to the village full of hope.

Zhu Rongjie was also bidding farewell to the villagers. He confessed to several village elders and Baochang Jiachang, "They were lucky enough to be selected to work in the palace, and they also served the country. The village and the local government should take care of their families so that they have no worries. "

"Master, please rest assured, we will take care of the family for them."

"This is His Majesty's hometown. Some of you used to be His Majesty's tenants. You don't have to worry about these children. They are both His Majesty's folks and His Majesty's people. This time is also a great luck and opportunity for them. They In the future, I will be able to return home in brocade clothes.”

June.

Zhu Yihai inspected his hometown Yanzhou, not only going deep into various counties and towns, but even going down to rural manors.

They also selected [-] youths from the countryside of Yanzhou, and gave the two princes [-] each as guards, allowing these rural youths to study and practice martial arts with the two princes and grow up through training.

"Your Majesty, the governor of Sichuan Qi urgently reported that Qin Liangyu, Duke of Shu, died of illness."

The emperor who was eating was stunned when he heard the news.

After a long time, there was a long sigh.

"Old general Qin is also a heroine, but it's a pity that there is no holiday."

Zhu Yihai called the bachelor to draft the decree.

"Pursuing Qin Liangyu, the Duke of Shu, as the King of Fuling County, posthumously titled Zhongzhen, gifting it to the Taibao, and bestowing loyalty and enlightenment on the heroes of the country! Burial with the prince's etiquette!"

"To be buried with the emperor's mausoleum is to be accompanied by the Taimiao. All officials, civil and military, are in mourning. They will stop court for five days, and the whole country mourns!

"A posthumous gift to Ma Xianglin, the envoy of propaganda and consolation, the admiral of Sichuan, and the Duke of Shu."

"Special decree that Qin Liangyu's eldest grandson, Ma Wannian Jiaen, inherits the Duke of Shu and is appointed Admiral of Sichuan."

Qin Liangyu passed away at the age of 75, and also died of old age, consummated meritorious deeds.But for the imperial court, this was a big loss, and the Southwest Optimus Pillar collapsed.

This chieftain female general is loyal and loyal. She has fought for the country for many years, and she is full of loyalty. No rewards or condolences can be overstated.

"Take plain clothes, I also want to mourn for the county king!"

The kindness that has always been achieved, the righteousness of the whole monarch and ministers, the virtues of the past are recorded by the virtuous, and the beauty of life, glory and death is listed in the annals of history to show the future.

It is also a kind of grace and honor for the minister to drop out of court to mourn.

In the Ming Dynasty, Duke Dukes and first-rank officials generally enjoyed the treatment of leaving the court for a day.

According to the Records of the Ming Dynasty, there were 170 and 140 times when officials dropped out of court, military officials accounted for 29 and [-] times, and civil officials only [-] times.

"Every newspaper issued an obituary, mourning King Qin deeply."

Zhu Yihai asked Qin Liangyu's coffin to be transported to Nanjing and buried under Zhongshan Mountain.That's where Taizu Xiaoling's Mausoleum is located, and Zhu Yihai has already planned to bury him in Zhongshan next to Xiaoling's Mausoleum in the future.

It is a great honor to be buried with the emperor's mausoleum.

Qin Liangyu served as the front stand for Zhu Yihai, and went to Jiuquan to recruit the old department and build a territory for him. After his death, he was also buried there.

Not to mention the sharing of Taimiao.

In each dynasty, the emperor usually selects a few civil servants and military generals who have made great achievements to share with them. In the future, they will continue to be with the emperor and ministers underground. The requirements for being selected are very high, and there are not many.

To enjoy the Taimiao together with the emperor, when future emperors come to offer sacrifices to this emperor, they also have to kneel down and sacrifice to the meritorious officials who are next to them. How much honor is this for the officials?

Qin Liangyu, a woman, was finally able to be made a duke of the state during her lifetime, and a king after her death. She could also be buried with the emperor's tomb and enjoy the Taimiao. It can be said that Zhu Yihai gave Qin Liangyu the highest honor that can be given to his officials.

This is not only a tribute to Qin Liangyu's loyalty and meritorious deeds throughout his life, but also an example to the world, and it also shows that he, Zhu Yihai, is generous in his gratitude to those who have made meritorious service.

Before Huang Degong died, he was named King of Jingnan, and now Qin Liangyu is named King of Fuling.

"For the Baiganchuan soldiers who followed the King of Qin and died in state affairs over the years, they will be registered and registered, and each family member will be given ten silver dollars as a pension. For the active Baiganchuan soldiers, each will be rewarded with five silver dollars."

"Baiganchuan soldiers have fought for the country in these years, and have shed too much blood and sacrificed too much. Their achievements must be remembered and commended."
