I, the grandson of the second emperor of the Ming Dynasty, earned 100 million taels at the beginning

At the same time, the Ministry of Officials selected 100 outstanding alternate officials to set off with the army. In the future, these people will be the officials who will manage the outer territories.

In order for someone to sign up voluntarily, the old man thought about it and offered a huge reward.

Officials who will be officials in the three countries in the future will be rotated every five years.

After returning to Beijing to report on his duties, the official is promoted to a higher level, and there are good places that need to be allocated first by officials.

And the salary has directly increased by 10 times.

When an official is an official abroad, these salaries will be sent directly to his family.

All the food, drink and lodging of officials outside are borne by the imperial court.

After the news spread that afternoon.

Those scholars who only passed the Juren examination but failed to pass the Jinshi examination suddenly became a sensation.

Although the place to be an official is far away and the culture and language are difficult, the conditions are really attractive.

After these people passed the Juren examination, Jinshi couldn't pass the examination.

Although juren in the Ming Dynasty were also qualified to select officials, the problem was that the most important thing in the Ming Dynasty was people who could be officials.

If these people don't care and have no money to bribe, they will never even think about being elected as officials in this life.

Even if they are selected, they are still some remote counties.

The imperial examination was just finished last year. If the emperor hadn't let Enke go, he would have to wait for three years.

Three years and three years, how could they have so much time.

Even if they can afford to wait, the family members can't afford to wait.

What's more, they can't guarantee that they will pass the next imperial examination.

Instead of waiting for three years or even six years, or even longer, it is better to follow the emperor to fight overseas.

When you get there, you will be a county magistrate at worst. As long as you come back after staying for 5 years, you can become a magistrate.

The more you want to lift people, the more cost-effective it is.

Before dark that day, the Ministry of Officials received more than 500 self-recommendation letters.

After discussion and selection by several elders of the official department, 100 places were determined.

Chapter 183: Xia Yuanji: My little Qianqian, here I come.

"Why haven't you come yet? Isn't it scheduled to arrive today?"

At the mouth of the Yangtze River, the old man hugged the little guy and led a large group of people, looking at the distant sea.

After it was decided that Zhu Zhangui went to sea together, the old man didn't want to stay in the palace anymore.

On the second day, Zhu Pangpang was given the task of supervising the country, and he took his people to the mouth of the Yangtze River to wait.

Originally, the old man didn't want to take the little guy with him, but when the little guy saw that the old man was leaving, he kept crying and insisted on following.

No way, after the little guy was born, the old man took him with him most of the time.

For the little guy, the closest person is not his mother, nor his grandma who thinks crazy about him, but the grandpa who loves him the most and loves him the most.

Seeing the little guy crying non-stop, the old man felt very distressed.

Gritting his teeth for the last time, he decided to take it with him.

Anyway, he only went out for a year, and a series of people including the imperial doctor followed.

In addition, Zhu Zhangui is not short of any medicine, and he is not afraid of the child getting sick in the vast sea.

So the old man set off happily with the little guy under the resentful eyes of Zhu Pang's daughter-in-law Zhang and the others.

In addition to the people who were appointed at the beginning, the accompanying eunuchs, court ladies, royal chefs, etc., and other related personnel.

The old man said that he went on an expedition with Zhu Zhangui, but in fact it was more like going on an outing.

To be honest, he didn't know much about wars at sea.

He went out this time mainly to observe the foreign environment and correct some of Zhu Zhangui's mistakes.

Regarding maritime operations and other aspects, he only focuses on observation and will not speak easily.

Wars are no joke.

If the coach doesn't know how to command blindly, it will implicate the entire army.

"Grandpa, are you tired? Let me hug you for a while!"

Knowing that the little guy that the old man was going to take with her husband went on a long sea trip, Zhao Ling'er was still reluctant to part with the child in the end, and couldn't help missing her husband, so she handed over the family affairs to Hu Shanxiang, and followed her.

As for the granddaughter-in-law, the old man didn't say anything.

That brat wanders overseas all day, so there should be someone close to him by his side.

Besides, the temptation of the colorful world outside is so great, this stinky boy has already turned his back on, what if one of them can't hold back, and he brings a lot of mixed-race great-grandchildren to himself in two years.

Thinking of a group of little guys in black and white calling him grandpa, the old man couldn't help shivering.

"It's okay, I can still hug you. The sea breeze and the sun are strong here. Don't be exposed to the sun. Go and wait in the pergola!"

The old man who had already regarded the little guy as a pendant on his body waved his hand casually, rejecting the granddaughter-in-law's idea of ​​taking over the child.

Finally, I looked at the sun above my head and felt the strong wind blowing from the sea.

Thinking of grandson's daughter-in-law, a girl's house, she might not be able to bear the wind and sun, so she asked her to go back to the gazebo to rest first.

"Woooooooo..."

But before Zhao Linger could respond, a horn sounded from a watchtower not far away.

"Haha, Your Majesty, His Royal Highness is back!"

Xia Yuanji, who was waiting with a lot of household staff, rushed forward excitedly, picked up a single-lens telescope and looked at the sea.

Soon a group of small black dots appeared in his binoculars, and after just a few breaths, the figure of the battleship appeared in front of his eyes.

Upon hearing this, the old man quickly raised his binoculars and looked into the distance.

White sails are like forests, giant ships are like beasts.

Hundreds of warships are slowly approaching him on the horizon in the distance.

On the largest blessing boat in the middle, a huge Mingzi battle flag flutters in the wind, showing its mighty and domineering momentum.

"Hahaha, my little darling, look at your father coming back!"

The old man laughed and brought the observation hole of the telescope close to the little guy.

Obviously, this is not the first time for the little guy to play with this thing, and he is very excited to lie on it.

Zhao Ling'er, who was holding an umbrella to shield her son from the sun, stepped forward excitedly when she heard her husband came back, and took a telescope from the maid next to her to look into the distance.

When she saw the Ming character flag on the huge warship in the middle, and the bright yellow Zhu character battle flag next to her, her eyes were slightly red with excitement.

"Grandpa, granddaughter-in-law excuse me first!"

Taking back the binoculars, Zhao Linger nervously touched the clothes on her body, worried that her husband might not like the clothes, so she thought about going back to freshen up.

"Hahaha... let's go!"

The old man laughed. Having lived his whole life, he naturally understood what the young man was thinking, and waved his hand with a smile.

The huge battleship group slowly approached the dock at the mouth of the sea.

Not to mention such a huge fleet, most of the people present were seeing the sea for the first time.

Seeing the shocking giant and the fleet slowly advancing across the sea, many people were shocked.

The old man looked at the huge fleet with great pride in his heart.

This is my fleet, this is my valiant legion that conquers the seas.

The pier at the mouth of the Yangtze River is not big, and only three warships can dock at a time.

The first batch of warships to dock were not Zhu Zhangui's flagship and frigate.

Instead, a battleship with a soul-calling flag and two warships with herbal flags docked.

Looking at the flags of these three warships, the people who were originally shocked fell silent.

The soul-calling flag is to attract the soul, and the ashes of the fallen soldiers are placed on this ship.

The other two ships with herbal flags were battleships for the wounded.

When the three warships docked, a large number of horse-drawn carriages parked at the far end of the pier quickly marched over, waiting to pick up the wounded on board.

The plank of the battleship was lowered, and an officer with a serious expression appeared in front of everyone holding a banner of evocation.

Behind him, a well-dressed soldier walked off the battleship lightly, holding a box covered by the Ming military flag.

The expression on the old man's face slowly became serious, and he gave the little guy to Zhao Ling'er who had changed his clothes, and led the people behind him to greet him.

By the time they approached, the boat had almost disembarked.

Looking at the boxes covered with military flags, the old man bowed with a solemn expression and bowed his hands.

The other two warships transporting the wounded also began to release people.

A person with severed arms and legs, or someone who was lying on a stretcher helped him down.

Looking at the wounded in front of them, although they were injured, their momentum remained undiminished, and their chins were slightly raised.

Even if these soldiers were injured, their arrogance did not diminish at all.

The old man was extremely satisfied.

The momentum is like a rainbow, invincible, this is the reason why the Ming Army can defeat every powerful enemy.

When all the wounded came down, the three warships retreated slowly to make room for other warships.

Zhu Zhangui was in the second batch.

Leading the officers off the battleship, Zhu Zhangui first led the crowd to salute the old man, then turned his head and saluted the ashes of the wounded and fallen soldiers.

"Masters, you have worked hard!"

"Brothers, go back and take good care of your wounds. You will never forget what you have done for Daming Kingdom. Daming will never forget you, what you have done for the common people and the common people of the world."

The wounded soldiers stood there and accepted the ceremony without moving.

They can afford this gift.

"You guys have worked hard!"

When Zhu Zhangui got up with the officers behind him, the old man also led the officials behind him to salute the ashes of the wounded and fallen soldiers.

The emperor thanked him with a salute, and the soldiers were a little flattered, and looked at the old man excitedly.

The old man walked up with the people behind him, and patted the shoulders of these wounded soldiers one by one in the way of soldiers greeting.

At the same time, by the way, care about the emotions and injuries of the wounded.

The condolences went on for more than a long time before the disabled soldiers boarded the carriage excitedly and returned to the capital.

The ashes of the fallen soldiers were also loaded into the carriage under the arrangement of the Ministry of War.

Watching the ashes of the fallen soldiers get on the carriage, the old man seriously explained to the personnel of the Ministry of War.

To send the ashes of every soldier home, one copper coin is necessary for death benefits.

Whoever dared to touch the money, he would personally pick up the knife when he came back and cut the guy who moved the money.

He also told Zhang Xuan, the censor doctor who followed him, to keep an eye on him when he returned. Whoever dares to touch the money should write it down, and he will settle it one by one when he returns.

Watching the dead and wounded soldiers leave, everyone's heavy heart took a long time to ease.

Xia Yuanji, who had been scratching his ears and cheeks in the crowd, stepped forward quickly and grabbed Zhu Zhangui's hand.

"Your Highness, where is my money?"

Zhu Zhangui was speechless.

The people around are also a black thread.

The old man coughed and vaguely reminded Xia Yuanji.

"It's the court's money!"
