First Prince of Ming Dynasty

A group of people walked around the Fengtian Hall in a mighty manner, and the Habayashi Zuowei who was in charge of guarding along the way gave way one after another. It is said that no one is allowed to come and go in this area at this time, but who dares to stop the crown prince.

Zhu Biao stepped into the Hall of Martial Ying, and Guiyi Hou Mingsheng had been waiting for a long time. When he saw the prince, he came forward to greet him and saluted: My minister, see Your Highness the Prince.

Well, how are you resting these days?

Zhu Biao naturally sat on the top seat and asked with a smile, Ming Sheng had been in contact with him for a long time, and he was no longer so sincere and fearful, and replied with a smile: I have nothing else to do after returning to Beijing, it is nothing more than to accompany Jiaci and be free.

After all, Ming Sheng, Chen Li, etc. are in an awkward position. Although they are nobles in name, they have no real power under their hands. They don't even need to go to the morning court on weekdays. Only major festivals have the opportunity to show their faces.

A few pleasantries heated up the scene, and Zhu Biao pointed out: Sichuan Pingzhang's political affairs, Liu Bowen, begged for the bones again. My palace also took pity on his old, weak and sick, but the governance of Sichuan is really inseparable from others.

Ming Sheng thought that the crown prince wanted him to recommend candidates. After all, there were indeed many talented and learned people among the ministers of Ming Xia in the past, and he, the old lord of the country, knew it best.

Ming Sheng pondered for a moment and bowed: I don't dare to talk nonsense about local political affairs, but your Highness doesn't dare to slander when you ask me. I can only try to recommend a few people, whether they are suitable or not. Please let Your Highness judge wisely.

Zhu Biao observed Ming Sheng's demeanor and said slowly: It's so difficult to control the military and political power of a province, and to appease the important officials of one side, especially in Sichuan, which is close to Yunnan and Guizhou. One is missing.

This palace belongs to him.

Hou Ye was okay after hearing that, but the first sentence made me fall to my knees in fright. Since ancient times, there is no reason why a king of a subjugated country can return to his homeland, let alone go to Kaiyajian Mansion to rule and seal the border Oh, is it to test whether I have the heart of a minister?

I dare not have such a heart...Chen...Chen...Happy here, thinking of Shu!

Lord Hou regretted degrading himself to be a Dou who helped him rise up. It can be seen that there is no less panic. Ming Sheng did not sneer but said seriously: Qing is not the former Lord of Shu, and this palace is not Sima Zhao. Sincerely, I am a scholar of the country. Treat each other, Wang Qing don't want to shirk.

That...that...

Nuo Xiao's imperial court actually managed to find even a talented person to seal the frontiers, but after all, Qichuan is in an ordinary situation, it only connects Yunnan and Guizhou, and it is also an important place for Xiao Ming to intervene in the Nanyang countries in the future.

What is needed is a long-term and stable person to govern. Liu Bowen is old, and the rest of the people with sufficient qualifications are young and old, which meet the standards in Mingsheng's mind.

Although Hou Ye is old, he is a serious old master. During the years when his father Ming Yuzhen was in power for two generations, he practiced frugality, promoted culture and education, warded off heresies, and reduced taxes. Has there been any long-term small-scale incidents in the territory? Military action.

Compared with the turmoil and the decline of the people in other places, compared with the two poles, one side relies on great prosperity. Although the years have passed forever, the people still lament that it is the thoughts of Shu people who can do their best in writing.

Prestige without talent is lack of people's prestige is very low, how to use it?

This palace has already given the decree to Hou Yiyi to build an ancestral hall in Chengdu to commemorate your father's merits. On the day of completion, the imperial court will confer the imperial seal on it, and no director of the Ministry of Rites will go to worship it in person.

In addition, my Marquis can refuse, but as a son of man, I can definitely refuse that matter. I knelt down on the ground: I thank the Lord for the kindness of heaven, and I hate that I can smash my body to repay it.

It must be so, Zhu Biao, give Gui Yihou a seat.

Zhu Biao responded and helped Lord Hou up, and the eunuch on the other side moved a brocade stool, Lord Hou stood up with tears in his eyes and sobbed, Thank you, Your Majesty, please, please, Eunuch Liu.

Zhu Biao helped me to sit up and said with a smile: Liu Jin, please sit down. Your Highness always says that Liu Jinxiu is out of class. His talents and virtues are unmatched by others. Now he is finally entrusted with the important task of honoring his ancestors. Jiang Jing must seize the opportunity. .”

Hou Ye is only one year older than Ming Sheng, and he can still maintain his dignity on weekdays, but in the face of the sudden little surprise and joy that caused sadness, he couldn't restrain himself for a while, and his sleeves were so soaked that he could wring out water. coming.

Ming Sheng felt a bit of compassion, of course, mainly because of whether the Ming family had any grudges with Lao Zhu's family, whether Ming Yuzhen guarded the Shu land by herself, and whether she participated in the competition in the sky, but she was the same as Chen Youliang, Zhang Shicheng, etc. same.

I took out a handkerchief embroidered with a cloud and dragon pattern from my sleeve and handed it to Zhu Biao, and asked me to deliver it to Jiang Jing. If I get benefits, but do a good job, then I will be stingy with the punishment.

It was Tihou who was so moved and grateful when he took the scarf, and when I gradually came up, Mingsheng said: I have asked someone to sort out the memorials and documents of Qichuan's two years of communication, and he will read them sloppily before going back. .”

Lord Hou stood up and replied solemnly: Shu people respect Zhuge Marquis Wu the most. Although I am a lowly minister, do you have the talent of Marquis Wu to govern the country and the country? The kindness of kindness, if there is no negative relationship, willing to suffer the pain of Ling Chi.

Mingsheng believed that what I said at that time was true from the bottom of my heart, but people’s hearts rarely change. It’s another matter what I thought before returning to my homeland and encountering the old instigation and instigation. Those pasts are all important. Because Jiang Jing is a stupid person, just like Liu Chan who misses Shu.

When Yunnan and Guizhou were not pacified, Ming Xia was taken by Xiao Ming like a broken bamboo. Now that Yunnan and Guizhou are all settled, and the Southern Conscript Army is very powerful, Jiang Jing dared to go against it, but it was nothing more than adding more dishes.

Even when it was their turn to conscript the Southern Army, the group of people who instigated and induced Hou Ye to return to the country would immediately take Jiang Jing and use him as a stepping stone for his own promotion. An emperor who rebelled and founded the country is a small feat, and it would be an exaggeration to say that he reached the sky in one step.

Those who want to come to the Marquis themselves also understand that the restoration of the country is a mistake to mislead others and themselves. If you don’t have this leisure, you should work harder to stand firm in Xiaoming, begging for the title of prince, at least the name of marquis for the prisoner. If you change it, you will leave hereditary wealth and honor to your descendants, which is to bear the spirit of your father in heaven.

Jiang Jing got up and clapped her hands and smiled, If I believe in him, I will doubt him again. I will work with peace of mind, and I will be rich and honored forever in the future.

promise.

However, the two of them started talking about Qi Chuan's recent official document. What Hou Ye arrogantly received was the royal education of governing the country and the people, and he also personally managed the government affairs. Although he is still old and inexperienced, he has a good view of the small situation.

Thinking about it, there will be nothing wrong with retreating according to the policy plan left by Jiang Jingchun. After a few years, I have enough experience, so I have to worry about it.

Mingsheng insisted on using Jiang Jing and asked me to return to my home country to take charge of the government. The main reason was to show my political attitude. Yunnan and Guizhou include the countries of Southeast Asia, where there are many Han people and few barbarians. The status is guaranteed.

I am afraid that I will become a prisoner before I surrender, and I will not escape death sooner or later.

Ming Sheng uses Lord Hou to tell us that as long as he sincerely surrenders to Xiao Ming, he will not only enjoy wealth and honor, but also have the opportunity to be in charge of the ruling party and become a small border official in the Xiao Ming Dynasty.

In fact, Mingsheng really thinks that way. It is best to get the land and the people at the highest price. If we really have no talent, why use it.

The official career is the best cage. If you fall back, you will only want to climb down. The assimilation was completed a few generations ago. When the time comes, we will take the initiative to abandon the old inheritance, and we will desperately integrate into the glory. Sombre Xiao Ming.

A country without self-confidence is afraid of being understood, let alone China, which is a civilization disguised as a country. Its assimilation power in that era was very scary. As long as we dare to understand it deeply, we will escape.

Before Ye Sudie'er became Khan, he was determined to restore the Mongolian traditions, because too few Mongolian nobles had been assimilated by the Central Plains, so he changed quickly, and sooner or later, even people and land were dedicated to Xiao Ming.

It is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal, that is the reason.
