I'm really not the carpenter emperor

When the battle progressed to a fierce stage, the number of white soldiers was extremely disadvantaged, but the rebels could not advance any further.The two sides fought together, and two or three rebels could not kill a white soldier.

And see, a white soldier first stabbed a rebel to death with a long pole, then raised his foot and kicked hard, riding on the face of another rebel, yelling:

"Short-lived turtle! I think you have a big brain and a big brain, and you are just poking me."

As the words fell, he drew out the dagger he had stuck in his calf before the battle without hesitation, and when the rebels were still in a daze, he slashed at the neck of the rebels.

Blood spurted on the white soldier's face, but without blinking his eyes, he turned around and rushed into more rebels, raising his hand and chopping off the left hand of one rebel.

"kill!"

She Chongming did not expect that there would be such people in eastern Chuandong who were loyal to Daming. These white soldiers were not human, they were the impermanence of Abi Hell!

At this moment, the earth-shattering sound of horseshoes sounded from the side, but it was a few chieftains loyal to the court who raided all the mules and donkeys in the territory and rode to support them.

"General Qin, it's not too late for us to come!"

Several chieftains looked at each other, looked at the mules and donkeys under each other's buttocks, and laughed loudly.

"It's not too late!" Qin Liangyu wiped the blood off his face, and said boldly, "The emperor personally conquered the Southwest. When he comes, I will ask for credit for the three of you!"

The three chieftains laughed, and one of the men handed the knife to Qin Liangyu, turned around and said, "Then please general command our three families!"

"it is good!"

Qin Liangyu was also unambiguous, received a hand knife that symbolized military power, raised it horizontally, and said: "Let these rebels see that there are still chieftains in Sichuan who are loyal to the imperial court!"

Once the two sides met, the rebels were frightened and fled in all directions.She Chongming himself was cast out of the shadows, fled all the way back to Chongqing, gathered the defeated troops, and no longer planned to attack Eastern Sichuan.

However, Qin Liangyu gathered the three chieftains, and his power increased greatly, but he was only able to protect himself, but not enough to attack.

At this time, Zhu Youxiao had just arrived in Luoyang.

Chapter 1 This Is Your Throne

Sunny after the rain, Luoyang.

The guard of honor of more than a thousand red official uniforms held the thin support, and the big Han generals marched on both sides, and came to the outside of the city in mighty strength.

Zhu Youxiao was dressed in fine armor, with the emperor's sword on his waist, riding on a horse, squinting at Luoyang Wenwu who had lined up outside the city to welcome him.

Not only Luoyang's civil servants and military generals came here, but also countless people watching from the sidewalk. They were very curious about what this young emperor looked like.

Zhu Youxiao looked down at the slightly trembling Luoyang civil servants, snorted coldly, and drove in from Changxia Gate.

"Long live the emperor! Long live the emperor!"

The common people shouted spontaneously, most of the common people present had lived for several lifetimes, this was also the first time they had seen the Emperor of Ming who ruled the world, if they said they were not excited, they would be lying.

This young man with a sword and determination in his eyes is our emperor!

How could he be so stupid as in the rumors? Thinking about it, it was those people making rumors and making troubles, nothing more.

With countless whimsical ideas, the common people raised their heads and watched with admiration and awe as Zhu Youxiao and the brave guard battalion behind him entered the city.

Accompanied by the sound of iron armor and leaves intersecting, and the sound of horseshoes stepping slowly on the stone path, many people felt at ease.

"King Fu, King Luoyang, etc., and all the emperors pay four respects—"

Stepping on the white jade bricks in the inner palace of Prince Fu's Mansion with his boots step by step, Zhu Youxiao saw a large wall with two dragons playing with pearls engraved in front of him.

With a click of his tongue, he turned his head:

"Uncle Emperor, your palace is much more luxurious than my emperor's."

The first words the uncle and nephew said when they met were in such a joking tone, the obese Zhu Changxun was helped up by his servants, looking a little at a loss.

After a while, he looked past the emperor who walked in with his hands behind his back, obviously sullen.

"Uncle Huang has already heard about the rebellion in the Southwest?"

Zhu Youxiao lowered his head and touched Zhu Changxun's exquisite utensils for drinking tea, clicked his tongue, and asked.

Zhu Changxun stood for a while, and began to pant heavily. Without waiting for Zhu Youxiao's order, he just sat down on the main seat, panting:

"I heard, isn't the emperor hurrying to put down the rebellion?"

"Uncle Emperor, the items in your palace must be worth a lot of money, right?" Hearing this, Zhu Youxiao glanced at him, and said with a half-smile:

"It costs the imperial court a lot of money to send troops. Years of conquests have exhausted the internal treasury. The emperor is so rich, why don't you consider lending me some money for emergencies?"

"Borrowing money?" Zhu Changxun suddenly spread his hands like a hypocritical little lady when he heard the words, "I'm so poor, how can I borrow money..."

Zhu Youxiao said with a smile: "No matter how poor you are, can you still be as poor as I am?"

"I've heard that you are almost occupying the entire area of ​​Henan's fields by yourself, and you don't have to pay taxes. The emperors below are showing off their power one by one."

"The country of the Ming Dynasty belongs to our Zhu family. You don't care if they make such a fuss."

Zhu Youxiao still spoke with a smile, saving enough face for King Fu.

After saying that, he picked up a cup of tea as if nothing happened, blew on it slightly, and was about to take a sip.

At this time, Zhu Changxun snorted coldly, slapped the table, and said, "Is the emperor making a special trip to expose me, or is he going to the southwest to suppress the rebellion?"

When the voice fell to the ground, the little Huangxun on the side also pursed the corners of their mouths, showing sarcasm, and did not even look at it. They performed the etiquette impeccably, and then stood sideways to Zhu Changxun's side.

Before the tea was in his mouth, Zhu Youxiao's smile froze on his face, like hot charcoal falling into cold water, all kinds of emotions rose up suddenly, and then died suddenly.

"I want to give you face, but, you are shameless..."

Zhu Youxiao thought this way, quietly put the tea back on the table, and walked towards Zhu Changxun, which made the latter nervous.

What does he want to do! ?

However, Zhu Youxiao put his mouth next to Zhu Changxun's ear, and his soft voice contained a coldness comparable to that of the frontier.

"If you had been the emperor decades ago, you would still have the capital to challenge me. But now, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty is Zhen, not you."

Hearing this, Zhu Changxun's eyes widened, and immediately fell silent, intending to fight silently.

"Hehe." Zhu Youxiao sneered and said, "Tell Qi Jin that I want to clean up the house here!"

"There are almost more emperors in Luoyang City than ordinary people."

……

"Lord Luoyang, I ask you, are you guilty?"

Not long after, thousands of brave guards surrounded Fu Wang's mansion, and the Luoyang Net, which was often domineering in Luoyang, and several generals of the state were tied to the wooden pillars in the courtyard of the Wang mansion.

Zhu Youxiao raised Luoyang King's chin with the tip of a knife, and said jokingly:

"Insult the gentry, beat the military officials, invade the school palace, rape the women of the people, and occupy the houses, what are you capable of!"

Hearing that the emperor had investigated these matters so clearly, the King of Luoyang no longer had the usual arrogance among the people.

The crowd of onlookers were applauding, but one by one smelled a fishy smell, and soon someone discovered that it was the King of Luoyang who was scared to urinate on the spot when he faced the black muzzle of the Yongwei campfire gunner.

"Look at your virtues, I feel ashamed for Taizu to have a junior like you." Zhu Youxiao sneered, and said while walking away:

"Looting more than 400 other people's wives, occupying more than 3000 private houses, and privately electing more than 12 women over the age of 700. You live much more comfortably than I do."

Zhu Youxiao retreated to the side and winked to the side.

Qi Jin took a few steps forward, raised his hand, and shouted loudly: "Let go!"

Immediately, gunpowder smoke filled the air, and after a crackling sound like roasted beans, King Luoyang and several other royal relatives all tilted their heads and were beaten into sieves.

The gunpowder smoke dissipated, followed by the smell of blood. King Fu frowned when he heard it, and vomited it out.

He really didn't expect that such a thing would happen in his palace.

"Long live the emperor!"

"Emperor Shengming!"

"Well played, well played!!"

There was a moment of silence around, and suddenly there was a violent shout, and countless people knelt down on the ground, admiring the emperor who dared to make decisions for the people in front of him.

The soldiers of the Yongwei Battalion also put down their knives and guns and knelt on the ground. Such a scene made Zhu Changxun's jaw drop in shock.

The King of Luoyang is a county vassal of the Yiwang family. During the Jiajing period, Yiwang was deprived of his title by Emperor Jiajing because he oppressed the people and was deposed as a commoner.

This, is this little emperor declaring his might to himself! ?

The army and the people waited solemnly, Zhu Youxiao turned to look at Zhu Changxun, chuckled narrowly, and asked:

"I'll ask again, will the imperial court conquer the Southwest, will you give the money to the emperor or not?"

depression to luck!

These four words appeared in Zhu Changxun's mind in an instant. With a dark face, he repeatedly picked his nails in his sleeves.

When the emperor's words fell, the surroundings were quiet, and all the soldiers on the expedition watched silently, which made Zhu Changxun even more nervous.

After a long time, he said something softly.

"Isn't it a few million taels? Take it, take it!"

Zhu Youxiao laughed a few times, stood in front of everyone, and said: "The houses occupied by the king of Luoyang and other emperors, I will not keep any of them, and they will all belong to the people!"

"Qi Jin, take Yongweiying to Luoyang Palace, rescue the captive women, and reunite with their families!"

"As for the belongings of the palace, all of them are used to reward the soldiers and civilians. I will have fun with the soldiers and civilians!"

Chapter 1

"Emperor Zhu You of the Ming Dynasty issued an edict:

The Taizu established the world at the beginning, feudalism was pro-vassal, and he wanted to share peace from generation to generation.It has been nearly 300 years since the throne was handed down here. Year after year, the land has been produced per mu, but the descendants of the vassal clan are multiplying day by day.

In the past, the people of one county supported one king, but now the people of one county support thousands of descendants of vassals.

The income is limited, the salary and food are infinite, and the people of Li are suffering.If I don't impose any restrictions, decades later, the clan will affect people's livelihood, which will lead to great disaster.

Today, I personally conquered the southwest, and sent guards to the people to investigate the situation of Luoyang's relatives. As people say, there are many families and few people.The king of Luoyang farmed a lot of farmland and occupied the people's fields. In times of disaster, there was not much grain production, and the people were in dire straits.

In my opinion, starting from July of the first year, the law of restricting the salary of the clan will be implemented.

Beginning in Luoyang, each province's Chief Secretary expediently determined the number of clans in each government, and set the average number. In the future, no matter how many descendants of clans and vassals reproduced, they would only support the salary according to the limited average amount. "

When the news came out, most of the world was shocked.

Since the emperor had this tendency, Wei Zhongxian was the first to bear the brunt, that is, to set an example in the capital.He ordered: This autumn and winter, all prisons, palaces, and bureaus will pay half of their expenses to save food, rice, clothing and shoes.

Wei Zhongxian took [-]% of the remaining expenses into his own pocket, [-]% was divided among the "eunuchs", and the remaining [-]% went to the emperor's internal funds.

Zhu Youxiao didn't say much, intending to acquiesce.

Anyway, he took the big head, and Wei Dang did things for him, so he always had to drink soup.

After the emperor showed his attitude, all the flatterers in the capital began to sing praises for Wei Zhongxian, praising his solidarity with the country.

It is worth mentioning that Wei Zhongxian took advantage of the opportunity of the imperial court to implement the "Clan Family Restriction Salary Law" to deduct the expenses of each palace, especially the residence of Zheng Guifei, and especially the residence of Empress Zhang.

The Kunning Palace where Zhang Yan lived, not only did not deduct expenses, but also added a lot of utensils. Recently, various palaces have been in the dark, and there have been many criticisms about the emperor being biased.

Regarding this, Wei Zhongxian was also decisive, and directly ruthless.

For him, the most important point in controlling the government is that nothing unfavorable to the emperor should not appear. Only when the emperor says one thing, can he "say one thing."

He still can't move Concubine Zheng, but Wei Zhongxian, the female officer in charge of Concubine Zheng's palace, is enough to use her to make her powerful and stop Youyou's mouth.

Thinking of this, Wei Zhongxian showed his trademark sly smile.

In the Forbidden City, outside a lonely palace, the female official Xu is talking and laughing with the people in the capital.

"Your Majesty's preference for the Empresses of the Central Palace, even surpassing the other Empresses of the other palaces, is it a little too much?"

After Mrs. Xu finished speaking, the people in the Yu Palace didn't take it seriously. In the past few days, this kind of gossip seemed groundless and everyone was talking about it.

The emperor was not in the palace, and Concubine Liu was more Buddhist in her handling of things, and she didn't want to ask more questions. Many people subconsciously relaxed.

"On the day when the emperor chooses the third, besides talking to the empress of the middle palace, can he also say a word to other empresses?"

"That's right, what's the matter."

"The Emperor Shenzong only dotes on the concubine Zheng Guifei, but now he dotes on the empress Zhonggong, what's so strange?"

The women were chattering non-stop, but a few Dongchang eunuchs came from a distance, and when they came here, they arrested Mrs. Xu and left without saying a word.

All the people and palace people were so shocked that their faces turned pale, and they dispersed like birds and beasts.
