I'm really not doing business

Chapter 497: Where His Majesty’s sword points, the Ming army’s front is heading

Chapter 497: Where His Majesty’s sword points, the Ming army’s front is heading

Zhu Yijun waited until the reward money was distributed and Tiqi conducted a large-scale visit to confirm that the reward amount was in place before he prepared to summon the general Zhenglu. If he went out to the capital camp to ask for the reward, it would be a disaster. In Daji, Zhu Yijun thought something would happen. After all, the Ming Dynasty's reward system was just like the Ming Dynasty civil engineering. It was a good opportunity to be greedy for ink.

How can any cook not eat secretly?
Don't think that just because you, Qi Jiguang, have won a great victory and returned to the court, you can show off your power. Beijing officials have the final say on matters in the capital!

But this time, the reward distribution in the Beijing camp was extremely smooth. They were taken directly to the school grounds to open the boxes of silver coins, and then under the supervision of the three parties, civil and military officials, they were all distributed in just one day. No one withheld any money. After all, this was a game that had just been launched. After the battle, he returned to his hometown in Beijing.

If there really is a disturbance about asking for rewards, there will be fun to watch!

Zhu Yijun is not afraid of the Beijing camp, because everyone in the Beijing camp recognizes the emperor. His Majesty the Emperor galloping horses in the school grounds all day long is a rare thing that has not been seen in more than 170 years.

On the fourth day of the sixth lunar month in the tenth year of Wanli, Emperor Zhu Yijun of the Ming Dynasty reopened the Huangji Hall and held a great court meeting to welcome the triumphant return of the conquering general.

In the Japanese country, the general who conquered the barbarians was the fixed title of the shogunate and the king of the Japanese country. National affairs were enshrined in Rong, especially in the capital camp. If something went wrong, you would be in big trouble. To make contributions and expand the territory, it is inevitable. risks assumed.

On this day, the Xishan Coal Bureau took a day off. Although the change in monsoon meant that the summer coal smoke would not blow towards the capital, Wang Chonggu still stopped the coal mining and coking activities of the Xishan Coal Bureau to be on the safe side, and arranged a comprehensive inspection to prevent major production accidents.

Even the soot is filled with loyalty and belongs to yes.

The two small Huangmen brought the four-clawed python dragon suit of Feng Guogong and helped Qi Jiguang change into his outer robe. There was no problem with etiquette. Qi Jiguang was granted the title of Duke, but he was a four-clawed python dragon. He walked on the Shenglong Road. It's very reasonable. How could Zhu Yijun let Qi Jiguang fall into a dilemma of etiquette and law?
Qi Jiguang climbed up the stairs and stood in front of the platform. Tishuai Zhao Mengyou checked whether Qi Jiguang was carrying a murder weapon.

Qi Jiguang's angry voice echoed in the court.

No, not at all.

Qi Jiguang carried the murder weapon, a sword given by the Ming Emperor.

"When I was young, I often received the teachings of Commander Qi. When I was young and strong, Commander Qi was strong and sharp. He could identify the opportunities of the weather, observe the key points of geography, follow the people's feelings, observe the trends of safety and danger, and defeat the captives thousands of miles away. , made great contributions to China and became famous.”

There is nothing expensive about this sword. It is an ordinary military sword. The only special thing is that it is the sword that the emperor has used since he was a child.

This gold medal is passed down from generation to generation. It is two inches wide and one foot long. It has two dragons on the top (inlay) and two crouching tigers on the bottom, which means subduing the dragon and subduing the tiger.

Inside the Huangji Gate is the square of the Huangji Hall. Climb up the stairs and stand at the Huangji Gate to look at the Huangji Hall.

Pingbo is naturally Qi Jiguang's pacification of Japan, and Anbian is naturally the complete recovery of Daningwei to Hetao. This is a song specially composed by Zhu Zaiyu for Qi Ji. The tune is full of chilling atmosphere, and even the movements of the musicians are not soft. , but heroic.

"The ancestral teachings of the Emperor Ming Dynasty have determined that meritorious officials will not be awarded titles unless they have made great contributions to the country and the army. Today, General Xi Zhi is sent to the field with an order. The commander burns his salary until the end of the day. He conquers the country in all directions and fights in the four fields. He captures the thieves and chieftains in front of his majesty and has military merit. It's everywhere; the thieves are still scared after hearing about it."

Zhao Mengyou didn't take off his saber and let him go directly.

When Qi Jiguang's figure appeared at the Huangji Gate, the sound of drums and horns began to sound, from gentle to rapid, the sound shook the sky. On the platforms on both sides of the gate in front of the Huangji Palace, the orchestra followed the horn sounds and began to play. , musicians in colorful costumes began to dance gracefully, and the music they played was "Pingbo Anbian Music" composed by King Deok Zhu Zaiyu.

Qi Jiguang walked quickly across the Outer Jinshui Bridge, crossed the Meridian Gate, then walked through the Inner Jinshui Bridge, and arrived in front of the Huangji Gate.

Qi Jiguang took a step forward and walked to the front of the Huangji Palace.

"The Ming Dynasty's army is so powerful!"

"Declare the decree." Zhu Yijun waved his hand again and said.

"Appreciate this."

"General Xuan Zhenglu has an audience!" The small yellow gates in groups of two passed down the voice of Tianyu. At this moment, everyone looked at the Yunlong stone carving imperial road. This road was stamped by the imperial road. It is also called Yunlong Stone Steps, which means the rising dragon.

This seal is the seal of the general who conquered the captives. Handing back the general's seal means handing back the military power and mobilizing troops. Unless ordered by the emperor, if there are more than 100 people, they will have to go through the procedures of the Ministry of War. This also means that Qi Jiguang returned to Peking Camp. During the time before entering the palace for an audience, there was actually a danger of mutiny.

According to Qi Jiguang's idea, it would be enough to hold a ceremony to ennoble the prince in Beitucheng, read out the imperial edict, change the crown and sash, and return the seal of the general who conquered the captives. Anyway, the title was obtained.

"Your Majesty is mighty!" Qi Jiguang shouted loudly again: "Your Majesty, please take back your seal ribbon and let the emperor wear his sword."

The title of Marquis is not my intention, but I hope the sea will be peaceful? That was just to console himself knowing that there was no possibility of becoming a marquis. What he meant was: Even if he could not be granted the title of marquis, he would still be willing to fight to protect the safety of the Ming Dynasty. This ambition would not waver as long as he lasted.

Qi Jiguang stepped out of the Huangji Hall, held the seal and sword of the conquering general on his head, bowed five times and kowtowed three times and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, Qi Jiguang, has not insulted your order, led the elite soldiers of the Beijing camp, and returned from the expedition against Bansheng. Guest service!”

However, Qi Jiguang thought that the scene His Majesty caused was a bit too big...

"With the merits of pacifying the Japanese and conquering the captives, he was appointed as a military minister of Fengtian Zhongxing and sincere Xuanli, a special minister of Ronglu, a governor of the Youzhu Kingdom, a governor of the Zuo army, and the chief military officer of the Beijing camp. He was granted the title of Duke of the country and received annual salary. Three thousand stones, connected with the same spirit, share weal and woe, and the loyalty can only be learned from heaven!"

Zhu Yijun stretched out his hand and said calmly: "Shuai Qi has worked hard, and the Ming army has worked hard! Qi Shuai is mighty, and the Ming army is mighty!"

The third-level platform was filled with Han generals and red-helmeted generals. They were solemn and solemn. Under the platform, on both sides were officials who were not qualified to enter the Huangji Palace. They were wearing court uniforms, holding wat boards in their hands, standing looking straight ahead. It is straight, with Tiqi wearing bright yellow robes standing on both sides of the road, forming a vermilion passage directly leading to the Huangji Palace, paved with carpets.

Feng Bao shook his fly whisk and took two steps forward. The two small yellow doors opened the imperial edict. Feng Bao raised his voice and shouted with frustration: "The emperor is destined to be carried by heaven, the edict says:"

According to etiquette, Qi Jiguang, who was still wearing Qilin clothes at this time, should walk to the platform on the side path and enter the temple.

"The sun, moon, mountains and rivers will last forever, and the Ming Dynasty will be forever solid!"

It is dyed from Brazilian mahogany. Of course, there are rumors that it was made of decapitated heads at the Meridian Gate and dyed with blood.

But the red carpet was laid on the Yunlong stone steps.

In the 29th year of Jiajing, after Anda Khan invaded the capital, the haze of war completely left the heart of the Ming Dynasty. This day is worthy of such celebration.

Qi Jiguang stood at the Huangji Gate, looking at the Huangji Palace in the distance. Looking at this scene, he looked calm and unfazed, but the hand holding the silver seal was slightly trembling.

"I have governed the world with letters and put down rebellions with force. Since the rebellion of Gengxu, the king of the captives raised an army to overwhelm the country and came with great enthusiasm. From then on, the country has never had peace, the people have never had peace, and the country has not prospered without virtue. , A person without virtue cannot stand, and now Commander Qi leads a strong army and annihilates the barbarian robbers' nest. He is the mainstay of the imperial court and the main city of the country. How can he neglect his achievements instead of favoring his life? "

Feng Bao walked a few steps quickly and came to Qi Jiguang's side. The person Qi Shuai was kneeling on was the emperor, the Ming Dynasty, not the eunuch like him. He still knew the etiquette. He took back the silver seal and the sword on the plate and handed them to The eunuch sealed the seal and quickly returned to the platform.

The sun was high and the sky was clear. Qi Jiguang rode a tall horse slowly to the Jinshui Bridge. He dismounted in front of the dismounting stone. He was wearing a scarlet dark floral gauze sleeved unicorn patchwork suit, a seven-beam cage scarf and a mink cicada crown. He was holding a three-inch square and three-cent thick The nine-point silver seal walked onto the Jinshui Bridge step by step.

"The dynasty became a constitution after a long period of time, it was a good deed and a favor, and the edict was issued to the world, and the envoys heard about it."

Qi Jiguang was getting older and his temples were turning white. Not everyone was as ambitious and greedy as Sima Yi. When he took back Daning Guard and built the Rehe Military Fortress, Qi Jiguang already felt it was worth it.

The emperor's sword should not be taught lightly. It should be taught one at a time, and it must be taken back after the errand is completed.

After Feng Bao finished reading the imperial edict, he started working with a few small Huangmen. First, he had to replace the seven-beam cage scarf Diao Changuan with eight beams, and the marquis silver medal into a duke gold medal. On the gold medal there was a sentence written by His Majesty himself: God bless the people, I am the one who takes the lead. Weijiahuaxia is really relying on tiger ministers. Grant you a golden talisman and pass it on to your heirs forever.

Then a gold medal is given to the Hujia, two inches wide and three inches long. On the front of the card is written "Fengguo Gonghujia", and on the back it is written "All the guarding officers and soldiers wear this card". There is a word benevolence on both sides of the card, Dulong Panyunhua. Embellishment, this is the gold medal with the word benevolence, which is the gold medal for Hu Jia. Only with this card can one enter the Tonghe Palace and face the Saint.

Then replace the Yaxin plaque. Qi Jiguang's Fengguo official trust plaque is made of ivory. It contains the official's rank and part of his resume. It is a proof of identity. This is Qi Jiguang's official status. If one day he is deprived of his official status, this Yaxin plaque will be used. After taking it back, the Ministry of Personnel eliminated the official status, and he had no chance to have an official career from now on.

Then change the seal ribbon, and change the silver seal of Qian'an Hou to the duke's silver seal. The silver seal is already the highest grade. The gold seal is only used by the queen mother, queen, prince, and prince. The emperor uses the jade seal.

Finally, there is the most important iron certificate of the elixir, which is the hereditary certificate. Without the certificate, it is just a nobility. The iron certificate of the elixir is like a tile, with resumes and military achievements engraved, and the number of exemptions and reductions in salary are engraved in the middle. There are two copies for the left and right, one is in Wu Xun's hand and the other is in the palace. When it is necessary to reduce the crime of the holder of the alchemy iron ticket, take it out and cross it out.

The duke is exempted from death three times, himself is exempted from death twice, and his children and grandchildren are exempted from death once.

But by the Wanli period, this thing was regarded as a symbol of Spyker, because this thing really could not prevent death, but was a bit like a life-stimulating thing. If Wu Xun did not believe it, the emperor would not use it.

The Ming Dynasty's Alchemy and Iron Coupon was completely modeled after the Tang Dynasty's Alchemy and Iron Coupon, but it only had an additional contract of not being forgiven for treason and completely exempting death. With the clause of not avoiding death, it became more flexible. For example, in the Lan Yu case in the 26th year of Hongwu, there were a total of fifteen Wuxun mansions, including the First Duke, the Thirteenth Marquis, and the Second Uncle. Which one did not have the ironclad certificate in hand?

Later, everyone avoided talking about avoiding death.

"I thank the emperor for his kindness." Qi Jiguang finally changed all the seals, ribbons, crowns and other items that the duke used before he thanked the emperor for his kindness.

"Qi Shuai is exempt from the courtesy." Zhu Yijun said with a smile on his face: "Welcome Qi Shuai home."

This smile is a joy from the bottom of my heart. There is no impurity in the smile. The sun is shining brightly. The previous canonizations and imperial edicts are carefully prepared. They are the emperor's instructions to the general who has returned from the war, and the last sentence is welcome home. , is Zhu Yijun’s personal emotion.

After not seeing him for a long time, Qi Jiguang seemed to be a little bit depressed.

"Your Majesty has been wronged. I am not in the capital, but there are many people who are constantly making noises in your Majesty's ears, which makes your Majesty tireless!" Qi Jiguang said in a bad tone after standing up.

Qi Jiguang read the residence newspapers, miscellaneous newspapers, and even His Majesty's letters. After the cheap Confucians left the capital camp, they had a lot of troubles. If what they said was reasonable, that would be fine. Your Majesty is such a gentle person, but he actually ended up in exile. Bian Fang's situation shows his arrogance!

Zhu Yijun looked around and was also very happy. Several people's foreheads were glowing and they were sweating. He waved his hand and said: "No, no, this is a normal discussion of state affairs. The imperial court has appointed officials. It’s just for them to find fault. It’s their job to find fault in the eggs. There is no disobedient behavior among court officials. Qi Shuai is overly worried. "

Qi Jiguang blinked. After hearing what His Majesty said, he bowed his head and said, "If Your Majesty says no, then it means no."

"Your Majesty is wise!" I don't know which courtier took the lead in shouting. All the ministers bowed their heads and said in unison: "Your Majesty is wise!"

Zhu Yijun suppressed his laughter and danced again! Everyone was silent!

If we take a closer look, during Qi Jiguang's conquest, the officials were not too violent. Only the criticism of Wang Chonggu was a bit fierce, but it later subsided. No one criticized the emperor, and no one refuted the emperor. In the imperial edict, in Shilin, except for the completely liberal views, which really make people unable to resist fistfight, there is no such thing as overstepping the rules.

"If nothing happens, then retreat from the court, sir, Qi Shuai will follow me." Zhu Yijun looked around to see if anyone would come out to oppose Qi Jiguang's enthronement, but he did not wait for anyone to come forward. "I will send you off to your Majesty." The ministers bowed their heads and sent the emperor away. Today is a day of triumph and joy. You must not jump out to cause trouble for the emperor at this time. There are weddings and funerals. Your Majesty's sword is also very sharp!
After such a big battle today, we only did one thing, conferring a title on Qi Jiguang, and there was nothing else to do.

In fact, Zhu Yijun wanted to go directly to the Ancestral Temple to tell his ancestors, but the Ministry of Rites stopped him. At the end of the year when the Ancestral Temple was being held, it would be enough to say it. The standards of Huangji Hall were already very high. After all, Taizu Gao When the emperor ascended the throne, he only offered sacrifices to heaven and earth.

Zhu Yijun went to the side hall of Wenhua Palace, the main purpose was to show off.

"After Wang Daokun returned to Beijing, he presented a model of the Youlong. This is the Feiyun that was sent a few days ago. Youlong Feiyun is a fast sailing ship. If everything goes well, the round-the-world voyage can be shortened to six to nine months. Time is the real weapon in sea trade! Time is money!”

"Shengping No. 1 steam engine, a 7.5-horsepower steam engine, is a smaller, stronger, more stable, and lower failure rate steam engine. Now there is a 16-horsepower steam engine in the Imperial Palace. It is Shengping No. 2, and It’s only about the size of half a room, so if you sacrifice some power, you can get on track.”

"There are many engineering corps battalions in the engineering display window here. I think Qi Shuai has seen it. After the engineering corps battalion completed the construction of Wulongchi Road, it went to Suiyuan, and Lingbu Tang invited the engineering corps battalion and the official factory corps to build We need to control the virtuous rural gentry in Henan. Three coal and iron factories have been established in Henan. I plan to build a city of ten kings in a few days and move the vassal princes back to the capital, and then seal it."

……

Zhu Yijun chattered for a long time, explaining in detail that Qi Jiguang was not in the capital and the recent situation of the Ming Dynasty. He had nothing to hide from Qi Jiguang. He had already communicated with Zhang Juzheng about the issue of the vassal overseas and had given it up first. After the clan members of the fifth server leave, King Lu becomes the vassal, and finally he becomes the emperor's heir.

Qi Jiguang also asked while watching, and was very curious about the fast sailing ship. If this thing runs so fast, will it really not fall apart?

"I must be really old. I feel really weird when I see these things." Qi Jiguang finally shook his head and no longer wanted to explore the principles of these things. Since they exist, they are reasonable.

Zhu Yijun frowned, always feeling that Qi Jiguang's twilight energy was a bit heavier, more like he had lost his temper. He shook his head and said: "Qi Shuai is not old at all. If Ling Butang can't hold on in Henan, then why not?" Thank you Qi Shuai for your hard work."

"I'm afraid we have to rely on Qi Shuai's mighty power to reopen the Western Regions and destroy the Japanese."

Even if he is getting older and cannot personally charge at the army peak, as long as Qi Jiguang is still there, it is the Dinghai Shenzhen and the guarantee of morale. The reopening of the Western Regions will have to wait until Chidao Xiu Dao Jiayuguan, and the elimination of the Japanese may be a matter of these two years.

"That's it." Qi Jiguang was stunned, and then realized that during the Wanli years, under His Majesty, as long as he couldn't do it, he would do it to death, and he must play a role at all times, and he would never let talents idle, thinking Retirement and taking a break? There was no door, and immediately he became energetic.

Zhang Juzheng said before that once Qi Jiguang is granted the title of official, it means that Xue Zang will never have a chance to fight again. After all, he can no longer be sealed.

The dukes granted by Qi Jiguang were first-class dukes, while the dukes of the Ming Dynasty were divided into two classes, the marquises were divided into three classes, and the earls were two classes. The main difference was in treatment. The annual salary of three thousand dan was a first-class duke, and the iron coupon was one foot high. , One foot six inches is five minutes, while the iron bond is nine inches and five points high. One foot six inches is five minutes shorter than the first class, and it is a second-class male.

Qi Jiguang's Feng Guogong was a first-class duke, and no one with a different surname could be crowned king any further up.

Therefore, Qi Jiguang believed that taking the title of Duke = actual retirement. Qi Jiguang also thought that he would never be able to lead an army again and would only be able to talk about military affairs on paper. At that time, he felt a little depressed.

A general who can't fight is as boring as a cook who can no longer shake a spoon. He doesn't like the blade of the knife turning inward, and he doesn't like the meaningless internal friction in the court. He likes the iron horse to swallow thousands of miles like a tiger.

Generals died in hundreds of battles, and their bodies were returned wrapped in horse leather.

Now His Majesty's intention is very clear, and he wants to continue fighting. As for the reward, His Majesty will just have to worry about it.

Immediately, Qi Jiguang's waist no longer ached, his legs no longer hurt, and his whole body was full of energy. Where is the enemy? ! Where! I feel like I can fight ten with one!
"The fact that Lingbu Hall submitted this memorial is a matter of the boundary of Shaanzhou, Henan." Zhu Yijun took out a memorial from his hand. This memorial was written by Ling Yunyi after he took office in Henan. It was neither a request for orders nor a report on the famine. , but talked about a poor woman in Shaanzhou whose surname was Zhao Mingjuan.

Zhao Juan's father was a rich farmer. He farmed twelve acres of land at home and lived a decent life. It was a coincidence that a fellow villager made a lot of money in a gambling house, so he encouraged Zhao Juan's father to join him. , the game was small at first, but the more it played, the bigger it got. In the end, Tian, ​​his two sons, and a daughter all lost to the local Chen Dashan.

Chen Dashan is the banker of this gambling house.

Mr. Chen Dashan is not in a hurry, because this farmer has a lot of strength. If he is really anxious, he will probably be bloodied five steps. Mr. Chen Dashan does not ask for money immediately, but keeps urging debts, urging debts, and repaying debts. Money is a matter of course. The gambling debt you borrowed must be signed and pledged in black and white. You cannot default on the debt.

Zhao Juan's father went to steal something and was caught and beaten to death on the spot. The two sons at home wanted to run away, but the deed of betrayal was in the hands of a kind man, so there was no way to lead them. Where could they run? Simply do nothing and become a bandit.

The only one left was Chen Juan, who cried out to Tian Tian for no response, and cried out to the earth that the earth was not working, so he threw himself into the river and perished.

Why doesn't Zhao Juan just marry a good man? She will have food and clothing, and she will no longer have to live a life of one meal and one meal!

marry? That's to be a slave, not a lady.

Chopping firewood, serving tea and serving people, warming the bed at night, breaking ice to get water in the winter, if you are slow, it can range from a few slaps to a few whips, and you will take off your clothes and kneel as punishment. For a moment, this person will definitely not have status, because the deed of selling oneself is a low status. Where does a lowly person get his status?

Even if they have sons or daughters, they will be hugged by the landlord's mother-in-law. She will scold them as a cheap young man and want to climb into the master's bed, and then sell them out.

Whether the master is lucky or not, there won't be any changes. They may be sold at any time. You must serve them carefully, otherwise they will be taken out to be matched with the young man. '[Note 1]
The young man must be happy, because there is absolutely no way this young man can win over his mother-in-law. Even if he knows that the master wants her, he will be happy.

Children born to a young servant are also slaves. They have been slaves in Chen Dashan's family for generations. This is called a slave born in the family.

Zhao Juan had seen with her own eyes the life of a slave, so after she lost her support, she threw herself into the river without saying a word. It would be better to die happily than to live like that.

After Zhao Juan was fished out, he reported it to the county government. When Ling Yunyi first arrived in Henan, he encountered such a murder case. This immediately attracted Ling Yunyi's attention. It is easy to imagine the fate of Chen Dashan. He was immediately killed. Once caught, Ling Yunyi went to Henan to solve the problem, so naturally he started with Chen Dashan.

Judging from the laws of the Ming Dynasty, it seems that Chen Dashan did not violate any Ming laws, because the gambling house was not opened by Chen Dashan, but was built by the villagers in the countryside. Chen Dashan was just a money lender, and Zhao Juan's father left it on his own. Those who entered the gambling house were beaten to death after being caught stealing. Zhao Juan even committed suicide by drowning himself in the river.

Where did Mr. Chen Dashan die? Is it possible that Ling Yunyi killed someone without any reason? Ling Yunyi was a scholar, so he was reasonable. After he arrested Chen Dashan, he began to clear out the land of Chen Dashan's family.

Not one acre of land!

Ling Yunyi was also unambiguous. He scattered his guest soldiers into teams of twenty and scattered them everywhere, specifically to catch the rural sages and gentry who put usury money in gambling houses. He caught one accurately and found the same ones at home. The situation is that there is not one acre of land!

All the rural sages and gentry who were arrested were charged with one crime: disobeying the official order to conceal their property, and they were all imprisoned and began to starve.

Ling Yunyi didn't beat, scold or punish him, just one word: hungry. When he was hungry, he only had one worry, that is, he wanted to eat. If he didn't explain his property, he would starve to death.

The sages and gentry in the country refused to explain, but the young and old in this family couldn't bear it. After three days of hunger, people began to explain one after another, especially the slaves who had sold themselves to the master. They were afraid at first. Later, I was really hungry and felt uncomfortable. Plus, Ling Yunyi had enough food to eat if he gave me an explanation, and he would even give up the big cake of selling himself off.

The slaves rushed to expose it, and after a round of torture to confirm each other, a total of 140 households found 400,000 acres of land! All of them were placed in the names of various princes and generals, but not a grain of rice from these acres would be paid as tribute to the princes.

Now, the crime of hiding the property was confirmed.

"Your Majesty, it's really not that Henan Yousi didn't do anything. Ling Butang is the governor of Shandong, Henan. His holy family is in Long, and he has 1,500 guest soldiers under his command. He has a reputation for evil." Zhang Juzheng still said something good for the local officials in Henan.

It's not that Henan officials don't want to clear the father-in-law, it's just that they have no choice. The large and small prince's palaces, county prince's palaces, and general's palaces have all the land in the names of these clans. The local officials can't take action at all, and no one can deter Ling Yunyi from doing this. , Henan ground officials really don’t have the conditions.

The ground officials in Henan are not Ling Yunyi, they have no holy relatives, and there are no guest soldiers.

"I know. I never meant to blame. Otherwise, if I had passed the exams over the years, I would not have been open to Henan Net." Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "Isn't this why I sent Lingbutang? Everyone is fighting for it. I rushed to clear my father-in-law, for fear that if I were too late, I would be treated as an accomplice by Ling Butang."

The local officials in Henan were completely activated and exerted their subjective initiative. They did what Ling Butang told them to do, and they also did what Ling Butang did not tell them. They worked as if they were risking their lives.

It is true that the rumored Ling Yunyi is too cruel. In fact, Ling Yunyi is not so murderous as the rumors say, but the three of them became tigers, and the rumors became more and more outrageous.

"With the first batch of foundations in Lingbu Hall, with land and people, we can start to implement the engineering regiment camp method." Zhu Yijun said with emotion. Ling Yunyi did things vigorously and resolutely. There are about 140 slaves in these 140 families. There are nearly 3,000 people, nearly 30,000 tenants, plus 1,500 guest soldiers, it is more than enough to form three engineering regiments and battalions.

Zhang Juzheng looked around and said, "I think Ling Butang's idea is very good. He escorted these 140 rural gentry households to the capital for questioning."

These one hundred and forty rural sages and gentry were already on their way to Beijing. Ling Yunyi's intention was: don't kill them first and then take a look.

If the local gentry in Henan Province are willing to cooperate with the Qing Dynasty, they will not kill them, but will be exiled to Nagasaki, Jiugang, Java and other places. If they are unwilling to cooperate, they will kill the chickens to scare the monkeys.

Hiding the land was a violation of the emperor's express decree, and disobeying the decree was a real crime of treason, a crime that could not be protected even by the iron certificate of the alchemy.

If you kill a chicken to scare the monkeys, why don't you cooperate with your father-in-law to return the land? Then use the engineering regiment's camp method, and it will be all in vain.

Ling Yunyi's goal is to have nothing to allocate, and the landowners can only withdraw the land, but cannot buy or sell it. He plans to complete it in three to five years.

Ling Yunyi's current gentleness is because he is waiting, waiting for the Ten Kings City to be built, and waiting for the sects to move back to the capital. Otherwise, if there is a quarrel, the Ming clan relatives will become the key to the game. That will make it more difficult for the Qing abbot to return the land. He We are also waiting for the engineering regiment and battalion to gradually grow.

Ling Yunyi's intention was very clear. He wanted to transform Henan from a thorn in the side of clearing his father-in-law to a pioneer in returning farmland.

The Qing Dynasty in Henan was never fully launched, and when the emperor finally became completely impatient, it was doomed. If this old and difficult problem was not overcome, the Ming Dynasty's New Deal would be widely questioned.

The country has lost its great trust, and people's hearts are filled with doubts.

People do not suffer from the uneven situation. Once other places see that Henan Qingzhang is not a problem at all, other places will follow the same example.

Therefore, for the emperor, Zhang Juzheng, and the imperial court, the land issue in Henan must be resolved, and it must be resolved completely, in order to deter the stubborn and stubborn people.

"When necessary, I have to work with Qi Shuai. As soon as Qi Shuai came back, I had something to entrust to me." Zhu Yijun looked at Qi Jiguang. As soon as he returned to Beijing, he added another burden to Qi Jiguang.

Qi Jiguang said with great certainty: "Wherever your Majesty's sword is pointing, the Ming army's front is pointing! All directions are guilty, and all directions are guilty."

Your Majesty is not wrong. Even if the whole world says that Your Majesty is wrong, then the whole world is also wrong!
