Autumn of the 17th year of Chongzhen

Chapter 1219
After the Ming army regained Beijing, Wang Yan made some preparations, and worshiped the Ming Tombs the next day, chanted the sacrificial oration, and comforted the previous emperors of the Ming Dynasty.

Afterwards, Wang Yan ordered that a mausoleum be built for Emperor Anzong, and that Emperor Anzong be moved back to the imperial mausoleum in Beijing, and he suggested that the cabinet should reward the yellow salt plums that contained the corpses of Emperor Anzong and Concubine Huang.

On the day of the worship, there was a sea of ​​people outside the Ming Tombs, tens of thousands of people gathered outside the tomb, but they did not come here to pay homage to the former emperor of the Ming Dynasty, but mainly to see their enemies, who murdered and seized land. The demon leader Dorgon was murdered outside.

According to Wang Yan's original order, the violent corpses should continue until after Anzong's remains were moved into the imperial mausoleum. Who knew that the people in Beizhi hated Dorgon to the bone.

The enclosure order he issued caused [-]% of the land in Hebei to be forcibly occupied by the bannermen, plus fleeing people and filling up, tortured the people of Hebei into unspeakable misery.

Tens of thousands of people lost control of their emotions and tore Dorgon into countless pieces.

After simply offering sacrifices to the Ming Tombs, Wang Yan returned to Xingyuan, and Wang Fuzhi came to report and searched in Beicheng, accumulating 3000 million taels of silver. In addition, utensils, antiques, treasures, and even rare ancient books, paintings and calligraphy of the previous generation, their value , It is immeasurable, and it cannot be calculated with money at all.

What is even more fortunate is that "Yongle Grand Ceremony" was also found from the palace.

The silver coins and all kinds of antique calligraphy and paintings in front were all within Wang Yan’s expectation. Since the Manchu nobles entered the customs, the amount of silver plundered by the nobles of the Qing Dynasty was probably more than tens of millions. I'm afraid there are tens of millions in Jiangnan.

These things can be calculated, and Wang Yan has long been prepared in his heart, but "Yongle Dadian", which lasted six years and preserved the history, geography, literature, art, philosophy, religion and other encyclopedias of China before Ming Dynasty, was found. After coming out, Wang Yan was very grateful and excited.

Wang Yan immediately asked Wang Fuzhi to allocate a sum of money from the seizure, and transported this 7000 million-character masterpiece of Chinese civilization to Nanjing Guozijian, and recruited students to write and paint at least six copies. Then they were stored in Nanjing, Guangzhou, Wuchang, Luoyang, Beijing, and Hangzhou, respectively, for people to check.

The Western "Encyclopedia Britannica" is not yet available, but "Yongle Dadian" has been compiled for nearly 200 years. It is not just a set of books, but also an important tool to unite people's hearts, shape a sense of national honor and influence the world.

How can someone not be overwhelmed by it and be impressed by Chinese history and culture when someone crosses over and looks at the vast classics that can't be read in a lifetime?
There are more than 1 copies of "Yongle Canon". Such a huge project costs a lot, and the people have no strength to do it. Only the government can do it to preserve the treasures of national culture.

After dealing with this matter, Liu Shun came to report again that all the Han officials named in the city to be arrested had been searched out by the soldiers, and those who hid criminal officials were also arrested, and all of them were put in prisons, waiting to be dealt with.

Wang Yan didn't have the energy to deal with these matters, so he asked Liu Shun to be taken directly to Nanjing and handed over to the Ministry of Punishment. He would be killed if he should be killed, and exiled if he should be exiled. There is no need to ask his opinion again.

However, among the many criminal officials, Wang Yan made a special confession that he hoped that Fan Wencheng could go and be Hong Chengchou's companion.

Hong Chengchou's fate is known to everyone in the world.

As a big country, the Ming Dynasty was not afraid of challenges from enemies around it, but was afraid of internal problems, so it was necessary to set a negative example to warn the country.

After Fan Wencheng heard Wang Yan's confession, he was not convinced. He believed that Hong Chengchou was a high-ranking official in the Ming Dynasty after eating the salary of the Ming Dynasty. He deserved it, but he was different, he had never been a high official in the Ming Dynasty, and he had never received a salary from the Ming Dynasty, so he could not be considered a traitor and should be given a lighter sentence.

Later, when he arrived in Nanjing, he did the same, yelling at the court, but Du Yinxi, who was in charge of the interrogation, pointed his nose and scolded, "You pig and dog are not as good as things, where the water and soil support you, and where do you eat rice to grow up. If you don’t step on my Da Ming’s land, and you don’t eat a grain of Da Ming’s food in your stomach, and you live to this day, then I will give you a happy life. The imperial court has not forgiven you, and the world has not forgiven you. Why do you harm the world? You Your ancestors were also officials of the Ming Dynasty and received favors from the court, otherwise you would have the opportunity to study and be a scholar?"

Fan Wencheng was speechless, and soon after, there was another kneeling iron man next to Xiaoling. He and Hong Chengchou were on the left and right, kneeling beside Xiaoling forever, warning the people of the country.

After arranging these few things, the affairs in the city were almost handled, and Wang Yan began to be busy arranging affairs inside and outside the customs again.

With the demise of the Qing Dynasty, the situation in the northern border of the Ming Dynasty underwent earth-shaking changes.

The Mongolian tribes are in a state of chaos, and the strategy of the Ming Dynasty needs to be changed in response to changes in the situation.

Soon, Wang Yan ordered the North Korean army to return to North Korea, and Xie Qian led 1 people to temporarily station in Shenyang to appease the savage Jurchen and Xihai Jurchen and other ethnic groups outside the customs to prevent them from occupying Shenyang. Xia Wanchun was recruited to Beijing to report to Wang Yan on matters outside the customs .

Zhang Huangyan, Minister of the Ministry of War, was sent to Shanxi to reorganize Datong Town and the Shanxi Rebel Army. It was planned to be organized into two towns and given the designations Wuyi Zuozhen and Wuyi Youzhen.

Gu Yanwu, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, went to the various tribes of Mongolia to deal with the relationship between the Ming Dynasty and the various tribes, and told Horqin to hand over Fulin and others as soon as possible.

After dealing with these, Wang Yan began to prepare, carrying a large amount of seized money and supplies, and prepared to return to the dynasty.

In the city of Nanjing, after a series of celebrations and carnivals, the Nanjing court gradually calmed down.

This quietness became more obvious as Wang Yan was about to return to Beijing, and everyone seemed to be reluctant to speak out.

The Nanjing court is having a big headache now. According to the ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty, ministers with different surnames generally do not become kings, but this ancestral system has been broken. The Ming Dynasty not only granted kings with different surnames, but also more than one, and there will be more soon, not just. The king of the county was also named a king.

King Yan of Chu and He Tengjiao, King of Liping County, these are all hard-won nationals who have made great contributions to the court, especially Wang Yan, who is already powerful in the world. .

The embarrassment for the Nanjing court is that Yiziwang is already the best, but this time the king of Chu regained Shenjing and destroyed the Qing Dynasty. Such a great contribution is obvious, and they have no way to draw up rewards.

Such a great achievement, according to the previous generation, should give up the country.

The king of Chu was about to return Desheng to the court, and several cabinet ministers were already sweating on their foreheads.

The king of Chu didn't express his position on this matter, and it was difficult for several people to speak clearly, but if they didn't speak clearly, there was no way to discuss it on the table.

As a result, several cabinet ministers had their own thoughts, and the matter has not progressed. Seeing that Wang Yan is about to go to Shandong, Du Yinxi finally couldn't bear it, and expressed his opinion, "If the king of Chu dares to climb Mount Tai, Du Then you will be at odds with him!"
