Domineering Daming

Zhang Jingyuan, the magistrate of Fuzhou, listened to the report of the yamen servant, and then looked at Xiao Er who was kneeling on the ground, his brows were straightly frowned, and his expression was a little impatient.

Fujian's "New Deal" has been promoted to the prefectural level, but the structure is established, and habits are hard to change. If something happens, you still go to the magistrate's yamen, and Dali Temple does not dare to oppose the magistrate. This is the reality.

A chief secretary whispered in Zhang Jingyuan's ear: "My lord, there are many Fanbang kings and envoys living in Fuzhou Mansion. If this matter becomes serious, the governor and even the emperor will look good."

Zhang Jingyuan turned sideways slightly, and said: "This official knows, what should I do now?"

The chief secretary glanced at the shivering Xiao Er, and said: "Sentenced to exile, lock it up first, and when the matter is over, this group of people will leave, just find a reason to let them go."

Zhang Jingyuan nodded and said, "It's a way, you go."

The master book nodded, came down from the top, and whispered a few words in Xiaoer's ear.

Xiao Er hurriedly said: "Thank you, my lord, I will listen to your arrangements!"

Snapped!

Zhang Jingyuan patted the gavel, and shouted in a deep voice: "Disturbing the envoys of the vassals will harm the prestige of our country. I will be sentenced to exile and will be executed in ten days!"

Xiao Er was worried at first, but now he said happily: "Thank you, sir."

"Press it!" Zhang Jingyuan waved his hand and said directly.

Since the yamen servant escorted the person down, Xiaoer was still shouting "Master Xie", this "quarrel" ended in such a muddled and funny judgment.

The envoys of Annan's Zheng family were naturally overjoyed when they heard it, and made a lot of noise at the post station, singing loudly.

The guards couldn't understand it, but Annan Ruan's face not far away listened indifferently, because it was full of insults to the Ming Dynasty, and they were extremely arrogant-they were worried that they would cause trouble for Annan.

Zhu Xu is still perfecting the treaties with Spain and the Netherlands, and setting up traps as much as possible. For this reason, he has racked his brains and lost many brain cells.

Zhu Xu was concerned about these "missions", so Cao Huachun naturally sent someone to watch them all the time, and the news spread quickly.

When Zhu Xu heard it, his temples twitched almost instinctively, and his eyes showed a cold light.

Cao Huachun looked slightly startled, rarely seeing Zhu Xu lose his composure, bowed his body and said, "Your Majesty, what's wrong?"

Zhu Xu glanced at Cao Huachun, feeling a little annoyed in his heart, but he couldn't express it.

He knew that the source of this unknown anger was a dirty thing done by the Manqing in history. Although Daming is not to such an unbearable level now, it still touched his sensitive nerves.

Zhu Xu put down his pen, his face darkened, and he asked for a long time, "What's Zou Weilian's attitude?"

Cao Huachun said: "There is no movement."

Zhu Xu tapped his fingers on the table, with countless thoughts in his mind.

Although the Ming people at this time had the pride of being a celestial kingdom, their national and national consciousness was quite weak.In history, after the fall of the Ming Dynasty, many people used the title of "survivors" in their poems, which is worth studying.

"It's time to cultivate the nation, national consciousness..."

Zhu Xu murmured to himself, and said in a deep voice: "Decree, the governor's yamen of Fujian, the prefect's yamen of Fuzhou, the governor's mansion, the governor's office, and the main officials of Dali Temple will come to see me immediately. Xiong Wencan of the navy, the king of Tang, and All the generals above, as well as the general soldiers, governors, governors, and those above the fourth rank, all come to see me!"

Cao Huachun looked slightly startled, and said, "Your Majesty, there will be a military exercise tomorrow, and it's so late now?"

Zhu Xu waved his hand and said: "I can't sleep, and they probably can't, why don't we come to hold a candle and talk about it in detail."

Cao Huachun hesitated for a while, and said: "Observe the order."

Zhu Xu's order shocked the entire Fuzhou government, and a large group of people rushed towards the base of Meizhou Island.

In addition to Fujian's military and political departments, the navy, Zuo Liangyu and Yang Sichang from Yunnan are also impressively listed, as well as Guangdong and Guangxi's ministers of civil and military affairs.

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the breeze is coming.

Zhu Xu was sitting at the front of the huge venue. The left and right sides of him were full of chairs, and there were nearly 100 people sitting there!

After the group of people sat down, Zhu Xu waved and said, "Bring tea to all the adults, let's chat today and relax a bit."

Who dares to relax, Zhu Xu said the same in the Governor's Yamen, and as a result, the entire Fujian officials were demoted by three levels.

Zou Weilian, Ma Yuan, Zhang Jingyuan and other Fujian officials were all relatively close, and they were all quite serious at the moment, wondering what happened at this time.Naturally, in their view, a "quarrel" is just a trivial matter and not worth paying attention to.

Zhu Xu took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Everyone, is there anything you want to tell me first?"

Most of the people came here in a hurry from other places. Naturally, there were many things to report to Zhu Xu, but the atmosphere was obviously not right now, and everyone was silent and did not speak.

Zhu Xu put down his teacup and said with a smile, "Okay, then let me talk about it."

A group of people leaned slightly, listening carefully.

Cao Huachun calmly raised his head and glanced in Zou Weilian's direction. He was sitting not far from Zhu Xu, holding a pen, and he wanted to record it himself today.

Zhu Xu considered his words, and slowly said: "A while ago, Frangji massacred our Ming people, and there was a disagreement in the Governor's Yamen in Fujian."

Zou Weilian and the others felt their hearts skip a beat, their expressions solemn.

Everyone also glanced in Zou Weilian's direction, waiting quietly for Zhu Xu to speak.

"The governor's yamen advocates not to ask, 'merchants and untouchables, there will be more than one death', probably this is what it means. I am very angry. My Ming people have been slaughtered. As a parent official and an important minister of the court, I have such an attitude..."

"I am very angry and chilled. I have punished the entire Fujian officials as a warning to others, and I have strengthened my determination to attack Frangji. Cao Wenzhao has already led his troops to sea, and will soon conquer Frangji's royal city in Luzon. After capturing the culprits and coming back to punish them, I believe that from now on, no matter where the people of my Ming Dynasty go, they will be able to hold their heads high and be fearless, because - behind them there is a powerful country: Daming - firmly protecting them !"

Zhu Xu sat up straight, and said in a loud voice: "Through this naval battle, I want to tell all the people and countries who dare to disrespect my Ming Dynasty and slaughter my people wantonly. Those who are far away will be punished!"

Everyone in the venue was shocked, and there was something indescribable in their hearts, but they still didn't understand why the emperor called them here so late.

Zhu Xu picked up the teacup, gave them a little time to digest, took a sip and then put it down, and continued: "Before, Fujian officials said 'provoking quarrels overseas', so don't worry about it, now they are bullying you, Fuzhou prefect, how did you sentence it? "

Zhang Jingyuan was taken aback by the sudden roll call, quickly stood up, stepped out of the queue, raised his hand and said to Zhu Xu: "Return to the emperor, for the sake of the overall situation, I have sentenced you to exile."

"Specifically." Zhu Xu said.

Cold sweat broke out on Zhang Jingyuan's head. He has already been demoted by three levels. If this is a bad one, his life will be over.

He didn't dare to wipe the cold sweat off his brow, and said in a straightforward manner: "At that time, the envoy of the Zheng family in Annan had a quarrel with the errand, and the errand was wounded on the skin. Boiling, the humble minister was worried that the grand meeting would affect the emperor's plan, so he pretended to sentence him to exile, and he would be released in a few days."

Zhu Xu turned his gaze to Zou Weilian and said, "Governor Zou, what do you think is wrong with this statement?"

Zou Weilian went out, raised his hands, thought for a while and said: "I think it's quite appropriate."

"Is it appropriate?" Zhu Xu was noncommittal, turned his head to look at the others, and said loudly, "Do you have any different opinions?"

Present here are the princes of the clan, the general of a province, the governor of a province, and the governor of a province. It can be said that they are all high-ranking and powerful, and they may be directly transferred to the capital at any time, becoming high-ranking officials in the middle of the capital, and entering the elite of the Ming Dynasty's decision-making hierarchy.

Now you look at me, I look at you, no one speaks.

Zhu Xu laughed and said, "Okay, let me tell you."
