Reborn Regent of Ming Dynasty

On the fifth day of the lunar new year, Zhang Shouren returned from outside the city, exhausted, and held an emergency military meeting, recalling most of the rangers.

After suffering a loss under the city, the Qing army seemed to exert its strength. The scouts sent everywhere were strongly suppressed. According to the results of the military discussion, including the staff office, it was inferred that the main force of the Qing army should be In preparation for the siege.

As for why they didn't come to attack the city in the first two days after the thirties, that is, the first and second grades of junior high school, it should be the result of some hesitation among the upper echelons of the Qing army after encountering unexpected setbacks.

In any case, the city defense of Jinan cannot be relaxed, this is for sure.

Now I have summoned thousands of people to go to the city and prepared a large amount of supplies, at least in terms of military supplies and rations. Since the chamber of commerce is very effective and the distribution is orderly, even Zhang Bingwen and other officials in the city are full of praise. , no one mentioned it for the time being. [

In fact, it is a northern city like Jinan that is still too conservative. In the Jiangnan, Fujian, and Zhejiang areas, as well as in Shanxi, businessmen have long had a fairly good political status, and even many official and gentry families have been doing business secretly. □□, in fact, the big officials and gentry are in the back, and the small businessmen and citizens are in the front. The purpose is to oppose the collection of commercial taxes.

It doesn't make much sense to mention this matter now, and the situation in Jinan is different from that in the south.In the south, the merchants were still attached to the gentry, but in Jinan, the merchants had their own guilds and dealt directly with the government. This feeling was completely different from being a lackey for others.

The big proprietors of various commercial firms in Jinan have been elated for a while, even walking with dust and wind, very proud, which is understandable.

Everything in the city defense went smoothly, the Fushan Camp is here, the people in the city are at peace, and even Prince De's Mansion has returned to calm.

On the evening of the sixth day of the lunar new year, the palace specially hosted a banquet and sent middle officials to summon them. When Zhang Shouren entered the Forbidden City from the west archway and arrived at the gate of the main hall of the palace, he saw a group of clan members with the status of generals or lieutenants in Jinan. Greeting him at the door, as a guerrilla general, he gave him enough face.

After entering the main hall, Zhang Bingwen and others had been waiting for them in red robes and jade belts. In the middle of the hall, sitting was an obese middle-aged man, wearing a black gauze wrapped around a crown of golden silk wings, and wearing a blue dragon robe with four dragons. , Zhu Luyu belt, sitting in the middle, naturally is His Royal Highness De Wang.

The vassal seal of the Prince of Ming Dynasty was originally wishful thinking by Zhu Yuanzhang. He did not practice the land with the people, so he was not afraid of the disaster of splitting in the Western Han Dynasty, but he also gave him the right to control the local soldiers and horses. Xiaoxiao, guard against treachery and rebellion.

But this is just wishful thinking.

As soon as old Zhu kicked his legs, Jianwen began to cut down the feudal clan, and then in the battle of Jingnan, after Zhu Di secured the throne, he also cut down the feudal clan, and all the three guards were taken back.

To this day, all the princes and counties have no guards, no military power, and no administration of the people. They are not allowed to leave the city. The two kings are not seen each other. They are not allowed to meet relatives. Otherwise, if the local officials impeach the prince, the prince must suffer.

However, the national system still needs to be talked about. In the Song Dynasty, the status of the prince was lower than that of the prime minister, which meant that the prince had to bow and greet the prime minister first, and the prime minister had more authority than the prince.

The prince of Ming Dynasty is extremely courteous, even if you are a senior scholar, you will kneel twice and kowtow six times when you see the prince.
