Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 603: The Korean Dynasty Guiyou Jingnan Emperor Jingtai’s destiny is there
The most difficult battles in the south have been fought, and all that's left is to abuse food, drive away tigers and devour wolves, and use barbarians to control barbarians. All that's left is to provide weapons, food, and wages.

The north is divided into three directions: northwest, northeast, and true north. The northwest is fought by the elite border troops of Shaanxi and Gansu, and their combat power is overwhelming. The only restriction is logistics. Don't worry too much about this direction.

To the northeast, the Lao Jingying and Kamizhiwei are on top first, so there is no need to worry about it for the time being.

To the north, the emperor's own army faced the main forces of Totuo Buhua and Ala.Firstly, the covenant between the two parties is still there, and secondly, there are three Duoyan guards at the front, so the pressure will not be great in a short period of time.

Taking advantage of this strategic buffer period, Zhu Qiyu decided to organize and train a new army: Shenshu Camp.

Liu Chang served as the admiral and Hao Yi served as the supervisor of the army. First, elites were recruited from the pro-army to form the backbone.

We had dinner until dark and then dispersed.

The others went back to their homes. Only Pei Dang and Huang Qi followed Zhu Qiyu and walked in the imperial garden to eat.

There were only three masters and servants in the garden, so Pei Dang lowered his voice and talked about the most confidential matter: "Your Majesty, on October [-]th last year, Lord Shouyang, the uncle of the King of Korea, launched a coup and killed Jin Zongrui, an important minister of Tuogu. , Huangfuren, exiled his brother Anping Dajun to Ganghua Island, and placed the Korean King Li Hongwei under house arrest.

The coup has been successful, and a purge is underway within North Korea.

God is really helping the emperor. He wanted to sleep, so he gave me a pillow.Our Ming Dynasty can send troops to North Korea in a reasonable and reasonable manner. "

Huang Qi smiled and retorted: "What kind of help from God? Why do you attribute the emperor's contribution to God?

Think about it for yourself. In April last year, Prince Shouyang led a North Korean mission to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty; in July, [-] North Korean troops marched on the border; in September, the emperor sent Jiang Shilang to supervise Liaodong military affairs and mobilized a large army to the North Korean border; In October, a palace coup broke out. "

Pei Dang was a little confused after hearing this: "Are you saying that the emperor is behind all this?"

Zhu Qiyu waved his hand: "Don't say it so harshly, as if I am the mastermind behind everything. It was Lord Shouyang who wanted to launch a coup. I was just noncommittal and optimistic about its success.

When chaos broke out in Xianjing Road, North Korea, which was close to the Jurchen tribe, Jiang Yuan was asked to send troops to quell the chaos.

Then the King of Shouyang and the King of Korea died together in the internal strife, and the Li family was completely destroyed. It was logical for me to establish Korea as a province, place it under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty, and guard it by the feudal princes.

The Japanese will definitely not sit idly by and will definitely send an overwhelming force to attack North Korea.

At that time, I can completely wipe out Japan's main elite in North Korea, and finally the Ming Dynasty Navy will land on the Japanese mainland.

North Korea and Japan have a combined population of more than 1000 million, and Annan has about 500 million, adding up to almost 2000 million.

When I took over the throne, the Ming Dynasty only had over 6000 million people.

Suddenly there were 2000 million more people supporting the imperial court, which greatly eased the life pressure of the people in the mainland.

By then most of the people will praise me as the Mingjun of Zhongxing. "

Huang Qi quickly praised: "In just five years, the Ming Dynasty has already begun to show signs of renaissance. In another 20 years, wouldn't it mean that the prosperous era of civilization and prosperity will be restored?"

When Zhu Qiyu heard this, he laughed happily.It's not because of the prosperous literary scene, but Zhu Qiyu suddenly thought that among his women there was a little fan girl Ningxiang, among his old servants there was a little fan brother Huang Qi Eunuch, and among the civil servants there was a die-hard supporter, the great scholar Wang, and the military general. There is a die-hard fan Liu Dahouye.

Among the vassal kings there is also the King of Soochow, and among the nobles there is Cao Guogong, all of whom are unswervingly loyal.

Looking at it this way, I have a representative die-hard fan in all walks of life.

If you think about it from this perspective, the emperor is quite decent.

Huang Qi thought he was flattering him, so he laughed along with him.

After finally waiting for the two of them to be happy, Pei Dang continued: "After the North Korean coup, the slain Assistant Minister Kim Jong-seo and his confidant Li Chengyu guarded Hamgyeong Province.

Lord Shouyang sent a man named Pu Haowen to remove Li Chengyu from military power, but he was killed by Li Chengyu instead.

After Li Chengyu killed Pu Haowen, he claimed to be the Emperor of the Jin Dynasty, gathered the Jurchen forces, and tried to raise an army to resist. "

Zhu Qiyu nodded: "Very good, very good, even the Jurchens were involved, and they followed the 'Great Jin Emperor' blindly. This is ironclad evidence of their intention to restore the Jin Dynasty and their disobedience."

They have all rebelled. Is it not too much to destroy our clan?
Pass a secret decree to Jiang Yuan, telling him to keep Li Chengyu and not let Li Chengyu be destroyed.

Let Li Chengyu and Lord Shouyang engage in civil war first, wait until they are almost done fighting, then rush forward and destroy them all.

Again, this is my suggestion.I won't interfere with Jiang Yuan's actions when he's out of town, and I won't interfere with his orders. Huang Qi asked curiously: "Your Majesty, this Minister Jiang has no experience in commanding troops. Can he win?" "

Zhu Qiyu shook his head: "Who knows, Xu Youzhen has no experience in commanding troops, how can he defeat Annan? And after capturing Annan, Xu Youzhen followed the way of Huang and Lao, calming the country and the people, and governing by doing nothing.

Annan was governed very well by him, the people were treated well, and there was no more resistance like the Yongle Dynasty.

So, since Jiang Yuan has been sent, let him go ahead and do it.This is called using people without suspicion and using people without doubting them.

This is also the way for monarchs and ministers to get along with each other. People must be allowed to fail and make mistakes. Even if they fail, I will not be too harsh on them.

Otherwise, when ministers do things, they will all be timid and hesitant, and they will only get twice the result with half the effort. "

Huang Qi nodded thoughtfully.

With his most trusted confidant, Zhu Qiyu had no scruples when speaking, and everything he said was the truth.

The next day came, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month and the Lantern Festival.

There wasn't much activity. Zhu Qiyu just issued an edict, conferring the titles of Wang Cheng's nephew Wang Min, Shu Liang's brother Shu Yu, Zhang Yong's brother Zhang Cong, Wang Qin's nephew Wang Xian, Hao Yi's nephew Hao An and other close eunuch relatives. Jinyiwei is hereditary for hundreds of households.

In addition, today is the day when the newly built lofts in Jietian Building and Shennu Pavilion are officially opened.

Xizhimen Street and Xinkaidao Street at the northern end of Mingyu Square form a key intersection: Xinjiekou.

Southwest of Xinjiekou is the largest restaurant in Beijing: Jietian Tower; the largest place for music and dance in Beijing: Goddess Pavilion.

Northeast of Xinjiekou is the Shangshengxian Palace, where the jade statue of the Shangsheng Queen stands. It is also the largest amusement park in the capital.

Southeast of Xinjiekou, the emperor transformed the large-scale Dalongshan Huguo Temple into Jingzhao Mansion.

The Xicheng Military and Horse Department was moved to the side of Jingzhao Mansion, across the street from Jietian Tower.

Northwest of Xinjiekou, there used to be many temples.Zhu Qiyu demolished it and designed a magnificent department store and trading market, preparing to sell all kinds of goods after the sea ban and voyages to the West.

Learning from the land development ideas of later generations, Zhu Qiyu set up Jingzhao Mansion next to Mingyufang and moved the Xicheng Military and Horse Department here.

In this way, the stability and prosperity of Mingyufang will be guaranteed.

When the new store opened, the owner of the Goddess Pavilion, Li Xier, did not receive guests. Instead, she received the honor of being taken to Prince Qi's Mansion as a guest.

The emperor has secured his position, and it's time to reward him for his merits.

Even those who have made meritorious deeds in the secret intelligence system will be rewarded heavily.

Li Xi'er arrived at Prince Qi's Mansion in a carriage. To his surprise, Empress Ningxiang, who controlled the Goddess Pavilion behind the scenes, came to greet her at the gate in person.

The two greeted each other and entered hand in hand.

While walking and chatting, Ningxiang smiled and said: "Sister Xi'er no longer has to do everything herself, just be the master of the pavilion and manage the Goddess Pavilion for me.

I invite my sister here today. One is to have a meal and exchange feelings. The other is to ask my sister to guide us sisters.

The situation in the government has changed drastically recently. Some bitches saw that our husband was firmly on the throne and he was the only one who lorded it over us, so they cried and shouted that they wanted to be concubines.

Therefore, we must constantly improve our skills, introduce new ones, and capture our husbands tightly. "

Li Xi'er smiled and said: "Don't you, the Holy Emperor, dotes on you very much? How can you be so prepared for danger in times of peace?"

Ningxiang shook her head: "Fighting for favor is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. You can't relax for a moment."

Li Xi'er smiled and said: "Could it be that my sister wants to do the actual operation with the Holy Master and let her check for leaks and fill in the gaps?"

Li Xi'er was originally joking, but Ningxiang nodded without hesitation: "Yes, that's what my sister means. Please give me some advice."
