Chapter 768: Rewarding Aggressively

Yongle Emperor Zhu Di moved the capital to Beijing that year, and the Nanjing Imperial City was also copied in the past, so the layout of the Nanjing Imperial City is similar to the layout of the Beijing Imperial City, there are also Chang'an Street, Jinshui River, Zhengyang Gate, Fengtian Gate, etc., and the place where the officials of the ministry and the academy go to work is also located on the opposite side of the noon gate, and the imperial city is only separated by a Chang'an Street.

On the tenth day of the seventh month of the third year of Jiajing, that is, the morning of the second day when the imperial driver arrived in Nanjing, Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi held a grand court meeting, and the first arrangement of the court meeting was to sacrifice prisoners.

Early in the morning, Chang'an Avenue was already empty of thousands of people, crowded with people who came to pay homage to Tianyan, and all the soldiers and horses of the five cities were responsible for maintaining order on the street.

Under the morning sun, the Jinshui River in front of the noon gate was sparkling, and Xu Jin, the governor of Zhejiang, was dressed in a cyan five-grade civil official uniform, standing calmly in front of the Jinshui Bridge, with a dignified appearance and a calm and elegant temperament, which made the young women on the street blush and heartbeat. At this time, Xu Jin, the famous governor of Zhejiang, turned out to be such a young and handsome little Langjun!

Behind Xu Jin, a group of generals wore armor and lined up majestically, a total of Wang Lin'er, Xie Erjian, Qi Jingtong, Cen Lan, Yu Linsheng, Xiong Bai, Wang Duo, Wang Zhi, Feng Guoqing, and their respective middle-level generals, about 30 people.

Hundreds of Japanese and Yoban, including Hosokawa Takeshu and Pires, all knelt down behind the generals, one by one, as if they were mourning filial piety, or they were terrified, waiting for the verdict of fate in panic.

Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi deliberately changed into a military uniform today, standing at the highest point of the Jinshui Bridge with a sword in his hand, looking around triumphantly, and accepting the admiration and worship of the people of the whole city with a posture of looking at all directions, in order to show off the supreme virtue of the Son of Heaven.

"Ming Wansheng, my emperor Wansheng!!" Under the leadership of Xu Jin, a group of soldiers raised their arms and shouted, and in an instant, the people on the street knelt on the ground and shouted ten thousand victories, straight into the sky, and the sound shook the universe.

Zhu Houxi's kid was like being drunk, his handsome face was flushed with excitement, the sword in his hand was raised to the sky, and he blurted out: "Those who offend me will be punished even if they are far away, and the Ming Dynasty will win!" ”

Those who commit crimes against me will be punished even if they are far away. This slogan shouted by Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty shocked the past and the present, and still makes the people proud and excited, and now shouted by Emperor Jiajing, the same inspiring people, the soldiers and civilians present all spontaneously gave birth to a sense of pride, especially a group of military generals, as if they had beaten chicken blood, let go of their throats and roared: "Those who commit me to be strong, although they are far away, they will be punished, and they will win!" Wansheng!! Wan Wan Sheng!! ”

As the so-called acquisition of literature and martial arts, goods and the emperor's family, to be loyal to an ambitious and ambitious king, is undoubtedly a great blessing in life for military generals who are eager to make contributions. Therefore, Emperor Jiajing shouted the slogan "Those who commit me strong, although they are far away, they will be punished", and all the generals were ecstatic.

On the contrary, the civil servants either frowned, or looked at them coldly, or even sneered. Now the Ming Dynasty has been established for more than 150 years, swords and guns have been put into Kuma and put in Nanshan, and the civil dignity and military humility, once the emperor began to reuse the military generals to expand the territory, he will squeeze the status and interests of civil officials.

Therefore, a virtuous monarch is not necessarily a good thing for civil officials, but they prefer an open-minded and open-minded monarch like Emperor Hongzhi. Therefore, in the end of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor most respected by civil officials was still Emperor Zhu Youzhu of Hongzhi.

After the ceremonial ceremony was completed, Emperor Jiajing returned to Fengtian Hall to ascend to the throne and meet the civil and military officials, and today's early dynasty was officially started.

At this moment, Zhu Houxi's kid had already changed into a set of dragon robes, wearing the imperial crown and sitting on the throne in front of the Fengtian Palace, and the civil and military officials were on both sides of His Majesty Dan. The eunuch Bi Yun, the eunuch of the master of ceremonies, held the dust in his hand, and stepped forward from behind the throne and sang a promise: "Hundred-official worship!" ”

Yang Tinghe, the head of the hundred officials, held a jade wat in his hand, took the lead in kneeling down and shouted: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live." ”

After a round of tedious etiquette, the worship finally ended, and the eunuch Bi Yun, the eunuch of the master of ceremonies, stepped forward again and said loudly: "Xu Jin, the governor of Xuanzhi Zhejiang, Yu Dayou, the commander of the Nanyang Battalion, Wang Lin'er, the commander of the 500 battalions, the commander of the Tongzhi Xie Erjian, and the commander Qi Jingtong...... Come and see you. ”

After brushing it, almost all the eyes of the audience looked at Xu Jin, and there were those who were envious, jealous, resentful, and sneering.

Xu Jin held the wat in both hands, and walked out of the civil official formation without squinting, and then Wang Lin'er, Xie Erjian, Cen Lan and other generals also came out one after another, and lined up behind Xu Jin in the order of the names they read.

When all the generals arrived, Xu Jin led the team to climb the steps of His Majesty Dan, and came to the Dan Qi in front of the throne to kneel down and bow: "Minister Xu Jin see my emperor." ”

The generals also knelt down and bowed.

Zhu Houxi raised his hand and said, "You love Qing's body." ”

"Emperor Xie!" Xu Jin bowed again, and then took the lead in standing up.

Zhu Houxi said with a spring breeze on his face: "Xu Qing led the generals to level my Ming coastal bandits, and then went on an expedition to Nanyang to recover Manraka, and raised my Ming national prestige. Father-in-law Bi, declare the decree! ”

Eunuch Bi took out the holy decree that had been prepared a long time ago, cleared his throat, and preached loudly: "Xu Jin, the governor of Zhejiang, and Yu Dayou, the chief soldier of Nanyang...... Pick it up! ”

Xu Jin and the generals knelt down again, and Yu Dayou was still in Manlaga now, so naturally he couldn't personally receive the decree, so there was a vacant position behind Xu Jin, followed by Wang Lin'er, Xie Erjian, Qi Jingtong, and Cen Lan......

After the generals knelt down, Eunuch Bi Cailang said: "Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: ...... Xu Jin, the governor of Zhizhejiang, was the Marquis of Jinghai, with 2,000 stones, a coupon, and a hereditary title. Yu Dayou, the chief soldier of the South China Sea, Feng Zhong Yongbo, Wang Lin'er, Wu Anbo, Xie Erjian Feng Poyang Bo, Qi Jingtong Feng Yongyibo, Cen Lan Feng Erpin, Shilu 1,200 stone ......"

Xu Jin's decree to be crowned as the Marquis of Jinghai had already been issued a long time ago, and this time it was just fried cold rice, which had the meaning of telling the world, and once the rewards for the generals were recited, it instantly caused a sensation in the audience.

Oh my God, this holy decree is definitely the most rewarded knighthood after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, it's crazy!

Xu Jin himself was made a marquis, and his command Yu Dayou, Wang Lin'er, Qi Jingtong, Xie Erjian, Yu Linsheng, Xiong Bai, Wang Duo, and Shaoxingwei commanded Feng Guoqing were all made earls, and there were as many as eight people, although the title could not be hereditary, but it was also quite scary.

This time, not only the civilian officials, but even the other generals were as red as rabbits.

Xu Jin was also taken aback, Zhu Houxi, this kid can't be crazy, he made so many counts at once. Wang Lin'er, Qi Jingtong and the others were also stunned, but soon they were so excited that their breathing accelerated and their blood boiled.

"The last general will thank you, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" The generals shouted in unison, their voices trembling a little with excitement.

"Everyone, love Qing Ping!" Emperor Jiajing laughed, obviously extremely satisfied with the reaction of the generals, although he sealed eight counts in one go, but none of them were hereditary, and the burden on the finances of the imperial court would not be very large, it was worth spending this price to envelop this group of fierce generals!

Xu Jin glanced thoughtfully at Zhu Houxi on the throne, and couldn't help but secretly sigh that the little emperor had really grown up, and at the same time secretly alerted himself.

Last night, I heard Fei Shi say that there is a book in the imperial history to impeach him for supporting the army and self-respect, although Emperor Jiajing pressed down the book and left it in the middle, but now judging from his behavior of rewarding the generals, this kid still cares about this.

At that moment, Xu Jin did not hesitate, and knelt down in front of the throne and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to do!" ”

Zhu Houxi was stunned for a moment, and continued to smile: "Xu Qing, please speak." ”

Xu Jin held Wat Lang in both hands and said: "Now that my Daming Haijiang has been pacified, and the thieves have been eliminated, the minister wants to resign from the post of governor of Zhizhejiang and return the military department." ”

As soon as these words came out, all the generals were taken aback, and His Majesty Dan's civil and military attachΓ©s also whispered.

Zhu Houxi was stunned for a moment, and then said with an unnatural expression: "Why did Xu Qing resign from the post of governor of Zhejiang, now that my Ming Haijiang is just a preliminary decision, I still need Xu Qing to sit in charge and deter the younger generation." ”
