Domineering Daming

King Ping strode out towards Su Tai and E Zhe.

Su Tai glanced at Ezhe, and said in a low voice, "Low your head."

E Zhe took a deep breath and said, "Yes."

Without waiting for King Ping to approach, Su Tai came forward with E Zhe, bent down and saluted: "Su Tai (E Zhe), I have met the Lord Shang."

King Ping came not far away from them, with his hands behind his back, with a majestic expression, he said: "You can understand the righteousness, this king and the emperor are very pleased, there is no need to be nervous or worried, this king can't promise anything else, a prince title, glory and wealth, Enough for you to live comfortably and freely!"

Su Tai showed a trace of gratitude, and said: "Thank you, my lord. We only want to return to our hometown, and we have nothing else to ask for."

King Ping nodded, looked at the young and vigorous E Zhe, who was still somewhat unconvinced, waved his hand, and said, "Open the door and let them enter the city!"

The three doors opened together, and groups of soldiers lined up neatly, filled with a murderous aura.

E Zhe's face changed slightly, and Su Tai spoke first, "Thank you, my lord!"

Xiong Tingbi, Zhao Han and the others remained expressionless, and the joy in their eyes could not be hidden.

Er Zhe is the son of Lin Dan Khan. His surrender is very important to Ming Dynasty and Mongolia as a whole. It will make this grand ceremony complete, and it will also allow Ming Dynasty to completely eliminate the border troubles in the north!

King Ping welcomed Sutai, Ezhe and more than a thousand Mongolian households into the city, and then held a banquet.

Er Zhe presented the surrender form in person, declaring that Chahar would formally surrender to Daming and would never rebel.

After the banquet, King Ping and Xiong Tingbi invited Su Tai and E Zhe to inquire about other situations.

Su Tai ranked third among Lin Danhan's eight great fortunes. She has a prominent background and knows a lot of secrets. Soon, the national teacher Nikru and other places where the fortunes might go were all asked. Xiong Tingbi immediately dispatched troops. Prepare to look for these "hidden dangers" that have been missed.

While writing a letter to the capital, King Ping was waiting for tomorrow's "Sacrifice Ceremony".

The so-called "sacrifice", one canonization, the other is a sacrifice, and the two ceremonies are quite complicated. Generally speaking, Zhu Xu was given the honorary title. Sacrificing to the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty, swear an oath before.

Early the next morning, the great khans and envoys from all the khanates came together.

The three major tribes in Mobei, the Zaktu Khanate, the Chechen Khanate, the Tushetu Khanate and many small Khanates, the Heshuote Tribe, the Junggar Tribe, the Huite Tribe in Moxi, etc., there are hundreds of khans, large and small The Great Khan and envoys of the country gathered in Guihua City.

King Ping held a grand welcome ceremony, and the welcome banquet lasted for three days!

Among them are interspersed with various transactions, except for administrative and military affairs, the most important ones are economic.All tribes in Mongolia are in urgent need of materials from Ming Dynasty. Wei Liangqing and others took advantage of the mutual market negotiations and signed a series of contracts, involving armor, weapons, war horses, grain, salt, cloth, etc. The scale is quite large, and ten Years!

These Mongolian tribes felt more at ease when they saw that Ming Dynasty had no intention of meddling with Mongolia, and their economic cooperation was even more powerful.Even if Daming made some excessive demands, he still gritted his teeth and followed through.

Then came the "Conferment and Sacrifice Ceremony". The Mongols gave Zhu Xu the honorary title of "His Majesty the Great Emperor, the Lord of the Four Seas and Eight Desolations", and the following is the Ministry of Rites. The Great Khan of the country is a two-character prince, mostly beginning with "loyalty" and "shun", and then each Taiji is the king of the county. There are as many as [-] canonized in total!

Then there are all kinds of official positions, all of which are based on the Ming Dynasty's ritual system and laws, which are cumbersome, complicated, and time-consuming.

But everyone was surprisingly patient and waited quietly.

This process took three hours. When everyone was exhausted enough, the sacrifices began. After worshiping the heavens and the earth, the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty were sacrificed.

This ceremony lasted until dark!

When the ceremony was over, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The Mongolian tribe was sure that Da Ming would not have any thoughts about them, and was even more delighted with Da Ming's trade, which would bring them endless benefits.

A group of sweaters and envoys gathered together, drank wine, ate Ming food, and discussed today and the future.

On the other side, a group of important ministers in the Ming Dynasty were excited and "chatting".

Shen Yongmao smiled and said: "The Mongols have agreed to use our characters and learn from my Ming etiquette. They will carry out reforms..."

Xiong Tingbi said: "As for the Mongolian joint cavalry, they agreed to continue to provide them. They will be stationed in Guihua City. The number is tentatively set at 5000. They will also supply the horses. They are all the best horses..."

Wei Liangqing said: "A total of [-] contracts were signed, covering war horses, racecourses, gold and silver, minerals, cattle and sheep, and my Ming's seafood, weapons, cavalry, salt, cloth, etc..."

King Ping listened and nodded repeatedly, with a gentle smile on his face.

Everyone was very rejoiced. Before the apocalypse, the Ming Dynasty gave "rewards" to the Mongolian tribes, and barely stabilized the north of the Great Wall. Who would have expected that in just ten years, they would be able to accept the Mongolian tribes here. worship!

Everyone said something to each other, and they were all very happy, because after drinking, their faces flushed, and they were even more cheerful, and they spoke a little unscrupulously.

Solving the border troubles in Mongolia has been the dream of all generations since the founding of the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years. Now that it has finally been realized, it is naturally uncontrollable and difficult to contain!

Chapter 1107 New and old

King Ping's every move in Guihua City was transmitted to the capital in real time, and the Six Departments of the Cabinet, the Supervisor of Rituals, etc. got the news one after another.

Wang Qiaonian and Prince Jing have returned to Beijing, and they are drinking tea with Sun Chuanting in the small living room of the cabinet.

"After the fall of Mongolia, my map of Ming Dynasty has to be edited again. The Bureau of Surveying and Mapping must be having a headache..." Prince Jing said with a smile while holding a teacup.

Wang Qiaonian said: "It's not just the Bureau of Surveying and Mapping. The Ministry of Industry plans to build several roads to go to various parts of Mongolia. The things involved are more complicated. Xu Shangshu's hair is greying..."

Sun Chuanting was flipping through the letter from Mongolia, and said with a smile on his face: "These are small things, and this matter is of great significance. I plan to invite the emperor to go to Mount Tai to enshrine Zen. What do you think?"

This is not the first time that "Taishan Fengzen" has been brought up, but in the past the cabinet tried its best to prevent it, but now that it is brought up by Sun Chuanting, it is different.

King Jing thought for a while, and said: "What Baigu said is true. Our Ming Dynasty has an unprecedentedly vast territory, and the 'New Deal' is also vigorous and effective. The emperor's martial arts and martial arts are comparable to Taizu Taizong, and he should be enshrined in Zen!"

Without hesitation, Wang Qiaonian said, "I also think it's ok. When Elder Bi Ge and Elder Sun Ge return to Beijing, we will meet the emperor and report this matter together."

Sun Chuanting nodded, and then said: "Shenlong Mansion has published the memorial. This time, the 'Wan Guo Business Conference' was very successful. It has ordered 1000 million shi of grain from merchants from various countries at a high price. So far, 150 million shi have landed. To the capital, the others will enter the capital before the end of the year, this will help us a lot..."

King Jing glanced at Sun Chuanting, and said, "I heard that Fang Kongzhang moved all the officials from Southern Zhili there, and he harvested 150 million taels of silver and 30 shi of grain that day. The background is deeper than we thought..."

Wang Qiaonian glanced at Prince Jing, but said nothing.Who doesn't know the origin of Shenlong Mansion, who doesn't know who is the master behind it, no matter what the background of Shenlong Mansion is, they can't try to get their hands on it.

Sun Chuanting did not intend to get involved, and said, "Guomao Temple also participated this time, and gained a lot. I plan to make some changes to Guomao Temple."

Wang Qiaonian and Prince Jing frowned upon hearing this, their expressions solemn.

Guomao Temple is a formal state institution affiliated to the cabinet, which was established on the basis of the Huitong business operation.But because of Bi Ziyan's insistence, the functions of Guomao Temple were severely reduced, and the profitability was greatly reduced.Now that Sun Chuanting wants to "change", Bi Ziyan must pass the test.

In the cabinet, except for Sun Chengzong who doesn't care about government affairs, who can compete with Bi Ziyan?Even Sun Chuanting, who is in charge of the agencies directly under the cabinet.

Sun Chuanting naturally understood this, picked up his teacup, and said, "This time the imperial examination is fairly smooth, and the list of appointments from the Ministry of Officials will be announced soon. What do you think?"

As soon as Sun Chuanting finished speaking, Wang Qiaonian immediately said: "The imperial examination has been suspended for many years, and for other reasons, there are gaps in the officials. This time, we need 100 people in Dali Temple."

Prince Jing frowned, and continued decisively: "The Governor's Council also needs 100 people."

Sun Chuanting looked at the two of them, stopped drinking the tea, smiled and shook his head and said, "Don't think too much, the officials have stayed here this time, you can wait for the next time."

Fortunately, Prince Jing said that his Governor’s Council could be raised from “people”, but Dali Temple’s requirements are quite strict. If there is no fresh blood, these old officials will always be there. It can't be supplemented, I'm afraid the development will be limited.

Wang Qiaonian looked at Sun Chuanting and said unyieldingly, "Baigu, I really lack people here. If you don't let me go, I'll ask the emperor for it..."
