Jinyi Night Walk

The trip to Beijing has only been prepared for a long time in order to present a companion gift. After waiting for the arrival of the emperor, some details were only fine-tuned according to Zhu Di's intentions, so the preparations were very fast. Two days later, it was in the T-shaped [Guang] outside the palace. A grand military parade and prisoner offering ceremony were held on the field, as well as an audience ceremony for the subordinate tribe.

The place where the ceremony was held was on the huge square between Lingxingmen, the south gate of the imperial city, and Lizhengmen, the south gate of the capital. This location was the location of the Tiananmen Square.

Zhu Di's military parade this time was actually to pave the way for the ceremony of presenting prisoners, not to show off his force to China and foreign countries. Therefore, it was somewhat different from the military parade organized by Xia Xun in Dezhou. There were no actual combat exercises, and the army mainly walked in ceremonies and queues.

There is no need to go into details about the process of the military parade. Whether it is the Liaoyi guards and soldiers brought by Ding Yu, or Qiu Fu's Beijing garrison, they are all battle-hardened troops. In the queue, they are definitely not as good as our modern, almost terrifying They are neat and uniform, but the murderous aura that rushes into the night cannot be manifested by a neat queue.

Zhu Di led the ministers of civil and military affairs to go up to the city tower to review the army in person. After all the soldiers and horses leaped and swung their bows all the way, they walked past the city tower and stood in neat square formations. Fuguo Gong Yang Xu came with a team of prisoners.

Tens of thousands of captives were not brought here, they were only escorted by sergeants, and they brought the captured generals and a phalanx of about a thousand captives. Xia Xun, surrounded by four armored guards, rode a white horse , walked in the front, stopped in front of the city tower, dismounted to meet, the emperor approved, Xia Xun then climbed the tower, and behind him were captured 30 prisoners of the centurion level and above, each of whom was guarded by two sword guards. Hold on, and climb the tower together.

When the captives knelt down in front of Zhu Di, Zhu Di laughed loudly, and all the civil and military officials congratulated Xia Xun for finishing his speech, and waited for the emperor to reprimand them before taking all the captives under custody.Speaking of which, those captured captives may not be willing to kneel down obediently, but these aspects are naturally expected. Neither Qiu Fu nor Telluqian will allow the emperor to make any trouble when he is so happy. He has already done something to the captives A lot of processing.

Including not giving food a few days in advance, firstly, it can make them unable to struggle and resist because of hunger, and secondly, it can make their posture and gait look even more embarrassed, which highlights the strict military appearance of the Ming Dynasty and the majesty of the emperor.For Han Chijin Tuha, a fierce fighter who is determined and unwilling to surrender, he even used some medicine from the doctor doctor to temporarily make their throats hoarse, making them unable to shout or scold even if they wanted to. speak out.

After the military parade and the presentation of prisoners, there is a reward for meritorious service.

Xia Xun was the first to manage two consecutive victories in Liaodong. He was promoted from Special Jin Ronglu Doctor to Special Jin Guanglu Doctor, from Youzhu Kingdom to Zuozhu Kingdom, and was awarded Prince Shaobao. At this time, his rank, honour, and title have all reached the highest level. It really is a moment of glory.

The rewards for the generals in Liaodong were also announced on the spot. If so many people read all the rewards, there is no need to do other things today, so I only read the rewards for some major senior generals.

Among them, Ding Yu really got what he wanted, and he was granted the title of Marquis Kaiyuanhou.

When discussing rewards for meritorious deeds, someone once suggested that Ding Yuruo can be named uncle.

In the Yuan Dynasty, the male fifth-class title of Gonghou Bozi was a bit tasteless because the corresponding treatment of the two titles of son and male was too low, so at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, these two titles were abolished, leaving only the third-class title of Duke and Duke.Of course, these third-class titles are further subdivided into seven classes, the public is divided into the first-class duke and the second-class duke, the marquis is divided into the first-class marquis, the second-class marquis, and the third-class marquis, and the uncle is divided into the first-class uncle and the second-class uncle.

Zhu Di did not agree, and he was never stingy with rewards for meritorious ministers.Well, at the beginning, Sheng Yong fought against him repeatedly, until finally he was unable to recover, and then led the remnant soldiers to defeat him in the future. Zhu Di even promised him the Marquis of Licheng, so how could he treat Ding Yu so badly? of soldiers.

Zhu Di said, "Let's not mention the son of the grand master who killed the shoes in front of Ding Yu's battle. He captured Han Chijin's ten thousand households alive and captured a ten thousand households for me. Can't I return him a ten thousand households? Reward, Fenghou!"

Zhu Di made the final decision, and Ding Yu got his wish, and he was indeed named a marquis. Although he is only a third-class marquis at present, he has already reached the sky in one step.Ding Yu was so overjoyed that he almost scratched his head and jumped around like a hozen.

Fortunately, although this guy is bold, but this is the first time he saw the emperor, he was terrified, he didn't even dare to breathe in front of the emperor, and he didn't do any disrespectful behavior. Xun breathed a sigh of relief.

After the military parade, presentation of captives, and rewards, it was time for Aha Chu, Meng Ge Tie Muer, and other tribal leaders to meet with them. Zhu Di received these tribal leaders cordially and rewarded them one by one. When the series of grand ceremonies were over, it was time dusk.

As the governor of Liaodong, Xia Xun has a lot of responsibilities. If something happened here, he should return to Liaodong in time to preside over the local military and political affairs, and at the same time convey the emperor's reward to every specific official.But Xia Xun didn't leave. After the ceremony, he also returned to the palace with the emperor. Whether the situation in Liaodong can be completely resolved, the crux must be resolved here. What's the use of him returning to Liaodong?

He was reminded of the opposition voices he encountered when changing the Liaodong ethnic policy last time. Right now, Beijing seems to be a base for those who disagree with his political views. He is now playing an away game. will be more cautious.After all, although the current policy has drawbacks, it can calm disputes and resolve conflicts to a certain extent.

Don't look at the last brief talk, Zhu Di was very interested and did not show any resistance.However, your leader showed an attitude of listening carefully to your suggestions, and even kindly praised your creativity and sense of responsibility, but it does not mean that he would agree with your ideas. Xia Xun has been in the officialdom for nearly six or seven years. Of course he won't be so naive, he has to treat this as a war and prepare seriously.

So today Xia Xun went uncharacteristically, went back to his dormitory, had dinner with Ming'er, then walked to the desk and sat down, getting ready seriously.

The same three nights, Qingyang Castle in Liaodong.

As a benevolent elder of his clan, and living alone, Amu'er, as always, connected the door after dinner, and went to the clansmen who were also resettled in the local area to sit and chat with each other.

Taking advantage of such an opportunity, after some Jin's instruction, he quietly deployed it.

, "Huhelu, you Lie, are you doing something to make a living?"

"I have missed the farming season this year. After the land was reclaimed, I first planted some vegetables, picked the grown ones every day, and sold them in Kaiyuan City. Then I went to help labor, mainly pulling horses from Hada City. The various goods that were carried were sorted, sorted, reloaded, and after they were bundled, they were transported to Jinzhou by Han merchants."

Amu'er nodded and said happily: "Great, this way you will have the opportunity to get in touch with their various forces, you have to play it by ear, create some disputes as soon as possible, and provoke conflicts among them, the bigger the matter, the better. "

"Little man understands!"

"Well, the other tribesmen in this castle, as well as those stationed in other castles, have received orders and are looking for opportunities to create conflicts for various forces. They are not very friendly with each other, as long as they are a little bit Dial..., as long as you are careful about your actions, you won't attract others' attention. Don't forget, your old parents, your wife and children are all in the hands of the grand master. If things are done, you will be my family If you are a meritorious minister, if you fail, do you understand?"

"Yes Yes!"

Amu'er went out, looked left and right, walked towards the second family with seemingly leisurely steps...

Hanyang, North Korea, Royal Palace.

Li Fangyuan convened Liu Cao Judgment, and the main ministers were listening to Li Judgment, who had returned from Daming with injuries, to explain the results of his trip to Liaodong.

Li Juanshu angrily explained how Xia Xun had been avoiding him all the time. Li Fangyuan said worriedly: "I, North Korea, used meng yuan to fight against Ming Dynasty, and had no time to take into account the opportunity of Liaodong. I have successively controlled some tribes in Liaodong. With these The subordination of the tribe, their tribal people are my Korean people, and the land they actually occupy is my Korean territory.

Now, the Ming court is powerful in Liaodong, and all the tribes in Liaodong are stalking and submitting one after another. Even some Jurchen tribes who settled in the north of our country are also eager to move. , is it tolerable or unbearable?However, the Ming court is so powerful that we cannot fight against it, so it is not advisable to resort to force. My dear ministers, what are some good strategies? "

All the ministers were silent for a moment, and Liu Songgeng, the judge of the household department, had an idea and said, "Your Majesty, what Yang Xu did in Liaodong is completely different from what the officials of the Ming court did in the past. His actions may cause the Ming people to There is also disagreement. At the beginning of the founding of the country, Emperor Gao, the great ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, once said frankly that the Ming Dynasty was replaced by the Yuan Dynasty. The Yuan Dynasty was replaced by the Jin and Song Dynasties, and the Jin Dynasty was replaced by the Liao Dynasty.

Liaodong has always been under the rule of the Liao people and the Jin people. According to the historical materials that I know, the Liao and Jin dynasties did not pay much attention to literary affairs. There is no record of place names, so we can claim that the above places are all the former places of our country. If we want evidence, we can learn from the "Geography Chronicles of Liao and Jin Dynasties".

Back then, Tamna Island (Jeju Island) was originally a pasture owned by Meng Yuan. In the Ming Dynasty, the island should have been owned by the Ming Dynasty. There are no historical records to prove that they should be owned by them.A gentleman is a metaphor for righteousness, and a divination is a metaphor for profit. He is a great country in the celestial dynasty. He has always prided himself on being a country of etiquette and a country of gentlemen. "

Li Fangyuan happily said: "A great strategy! What Liu Juanshu said is true. Now that the Ming Emperor is in Beijing, this king wants you to represent me in Korea and hurry to Beijing to seek the permission of Emperor Yongle of Ming Dynasty on this matter!"

Liu Songgeng quickly paused and said, "Minister, lead the decree!" @.
