Daming: I became Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest son

Zhu Yuanzhang was obviously already looking for a step for Zhu Tao, and Zhu Tao had no choice but to go down the donkey.

He very solemnly saluted Zhu Yuanzhang before speaking.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. I will never come so late in the future. I will definitely get up early if there are important things."

Hearing what he said, Zhu Yuanzhang naturally knew that this could be regarded as a tacit understanding between father and son, so he exposed the topic.

"Your boy is right to say that. Remember that you must not be too lazy in the future. You are really indispensable in government affairs, but this time Beiyuan surrendered, you have made a great contribution. Today we have an important reward for you. "

After he finished speaking, he just waved his hand lightly, and then Xu Da commanded several school captains to bring the two prisoners up.

At this time, the two prisoners were none other than Yuan Tiandi and Lu Guan Tiemuer. They had been arrested for many days, and recently they lacked food and drink and had no strength.

When Yuan Tiandi was brought before Zhu Yuanzhang, he still looked angry and said to Zhu Yuanzhang helplessly.

"You Emperor of Ming Dynasty, you are so untrustworthy, I bowed my knees to you like that at the beginning, but you unilaterally tore up the contract, let the Lost Martyrs take my place, and brought my tribe to surrender to Ming Dynasty, what kind of emperor are you? ? You're nothing more than a contract breaker."

After hearing his words, Zhu Yuanzhang was not angry, he just glanced at the important officials present and said.

"Everyone also take a look, this is the original emperor of Bei Yuan, who lived to such an age and was so naive, no wonder Bei Yuan ended up in such a fate."

At this time, Yuan Tiandi looked at Lu Guan Tiemuer next to him and said guiltily.

"It's the old monk Yao Guangxiao who is very cunning. He turned our brothers against each other by means of alienation. That's why I deprived you of your military power and let you leave in anger. After all, it's all my fault."

At this time, a fierce light suddenly appeared in Lu Guan Tiemuer's eyes, and he stared at Yao Guangxiao who was smiling beside him and said.

"You old bald donkey, the way of heaven is clear, and the retribution is not good. Today is my death date, but after I die, I will definitely seek revenge from you."

At this time Xu Da glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang and asked for instructions.

"Boss, why are you talking nonsense with these two people? If you chop them off one by one, you don't need to bother."

Zhu Yuanzhang personally took two swords, one for Xu Da and the other for Lan Yu, and asked them to cut off the heads of Yuan Tiandi and Lu Guan Timur with their own hands and send them to the Taimiao to worship their ancestors.

And Zhu Yuanzhang personally wrote the sacrificial oration, which roughly means that since then, the Beiyuan has become history and completely destroyed.

And all the herdsmen in the Northern Yuan Dynasty will be brought under the management of Daming, and I will influence them with the virtue of the emperor. From then on, the Han people can be regarded as standing up.

After the two were beheaded, Fu Youde who was next to him suddenly stood up and said to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Your Majesty, now that the entire Northern Yuan Dynasty has surrendered to Daming, we only killed one Yuan Tiandi and one Lu Guan Timur. This is too cheap for them. I think that all civil and military personnel above Pingzhang should be killed."

There were indeed many second-rank and above officials in Dayuan who were already terrified, and they were tied up and trembling.

But Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile.

"Heart warfare is the top priority, and military warfare is the bottom. These people used to be the ministers of Emperor Yuan Tian, ​​but now they are also the subjects of Daming. Let them go, and then let them go to Zhu Tao's Huaxiang Village experimental field to do it. Hard labor for half a year, whether to be released or released after half a year is all up to Zhu Tao's idea."

Zhu Tao saluted Zhu Yuanzhang with a smile before speaking.

"Thank you, Dad. So many former ministers of Dayuan are now free long-term workers in my place. This is not bad. Letting them reform through labor there is also a contribution to Daming."

At this time, even if the matter was dealt with, Zhu Yuanzhang said to the civil and military officials present at the ceremony of presenting prisoners.

"You may know that the most important thing for Beiyuan to completely surrender this time is that our monarchs and ministers work together to achieve such a victory. Today we are going to praise the heroes."

At this time, he took out an imperial decree from his hand and handed it to Li Shanchang.

"Good sir, you are the second assistant of the cabinet, so it's up to you to read out the imperial decree of the reward."

Li Shanchang was a little excited, he took the imperial decree and read it out loud.

"Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and Zhu Yan, the king of Jin, each expanded their fiefdoms by thousands of miles. They were allowed to divide the land thousands of miles away from Yuerhai, and they were granted 3000 guards and horses."

Of course, the two kings of Sai, who were leading soldiers, knew very well what it meant for them to add fiefdoms and guard soldiers, and hurried forward to thank them.

"Li Shanchang and other ministers in the cabinet have ten thousand taels of gold and one thousand pieces of silk and satin in each game. Xu Da and other generals have made meritorious service in supporting the Northern Expedition. They have ten thousand taels of gold and five hundred pieces of silk and satin in each game. The Ministry selects the best and grants the vacancy."

Whether it's the cabinet ministers or the generals leading the troops, they are naturally very happy. Although they don't care about the money, it shows that the emperor has not forgotten them.

Next, Li Shanchang held the imperial decree and read it out again.

"For those soldiers who fought against Lu Guan Timur, all generals above a centurion will be promoted to one level, and they will be rewarded with 500 taels of silver. Guozijian studied or inherited his father's official position."

"Yao Guangxiao has made great achievements. He was awarded the title of second-rank, a thousand taels of gold. The new emperor of the Northern Yuan Dynasty came to surrender sincerely, and rewarded a hundred taels of gold and a hundred pieces of silk. The Ministry of Officials gave him the title of third-rank minister for the record. He studied with Zhu Tao. Get a real job again."

It can be said that Zhu Yuanzhang took very good care of this decree, whether it was the cabinet ministers, the generals, or even ordinary soldiers, and even the martyrs were arranged one by one.

But while everyone was happy, they suddenly thought of a question. Zhu Tao was the most important contributor to Bei Yuan's demise this time.

However, the imperial decree has been read until now, but there is no mention of Zhu Tao at all, which is really very strange.

Finally, Zhu Di couldn't hold on any longer. After all, he and Zhu Tao had always had a very good relationship, so he walked up to Zhu Yuanzhang and said.

"Father, the heroes, veteran generals, ordinary soldiers and even the emperor of the Northern Yuan Dynasty have all been rewarded, but as the person with the greatest contribution, how can Brother Tao not be rewarded?"

At this time Zhu Yan also rushed over and began to ask for rewards from Zhu Tao. After all, he also knew that rewarding Zhu Tao was indispensable, so if he came out at this time, he could be regarded as selling his brother's favor.

Of course, the civil servants, military generals and veterans next to him were not stupid, they all came over and started asking for rewards for Zhu Tao.

Zhu Tao himself was a little stunned by this whole thing, I heard that I'm a dude, I just want to eat and wait to die all day long, what's the matter with asking me to reward you?
The main reason is that this reward is not for nothing. After it is sealed, I have to work. I cook food at home all day. Are you unhappy with my wife? What kind of work are you doing?

However, he didn't dare to say this to Zhu Yuanzhang, so he just bowed his head there and remained silent.
