Chapter 857: Ruthless and Righteous Zhu Di
"These people have become so cunning, I really should have slaughtered them!"
Zhu Di pinched the music, and he was angry.
Chang Mao returned and saved the envoys who had sent Haret in the past. They went to Harlie in the Hongwu Dynasty, a total of more than ten years, more than 100 people, only a dozen returned, and the standard of ten did not survive one. In any case, they are all heroes and must be rewarded.
But the problem is that over the years, the reform of the Ming Dynasty has been completely different from the original.
These princes also suggested that they should be given a wife.
"If I agree to their proposal, wouldn't I be setting a precedent? The entire military reform will not be able to be pushed forward, it is simply hateful! Dare to play with me, believe it or not, I cut them all off, not a single one is left! ”
In the face of Zhu Di's complaints, Liu Chun was very relieved and agreed from the bottom of his heart. You'd better hurry up, I'll save you trouble, there's a kind of let's not hide in Miyun and pretend to be a dead dog!
Zhu Laosi also knew what Liu Chun meant, and he snorted viciously.
"They are all old brothers for many years, I can't help but think about the old love, but they are so uninteresting, I am helpless. If they still have to toss and fight against me, I will never be relentless! ”
Zhu Di gritted his teeth, but the meaning was obvious, this time he was not willing to do it, or rather, he couldn't do it at all.
After all, they are all heroes of the appeasement, what should he do?
"Your Majesty, there is only one way to do it for now."
"What's the solution?" Zhu Di said with a smile, although he didn't know what Liu Chun's method was, Zhu Di was still full of confidence in Liu Chun, and this kid would definitely be able to come up with a refreshing solution.
"Your Majesty, in the past, the rewards for meritorious heroes were more materialistic, such as promotions, knighthoods, acres of land, money, and wives and children...... From now on, can it be changed to honor-oriented? ”
Zhu Di hesitated: "What do you mean...... Don't play real, changed the fiction? ”
"No, no, no!" Liu Chun hurriedly waved his hand, "Your Majesty, the minister has the courage to ask for advice, you get up early and go to bed late, work hard, eat and clothe at night, what is it for?" ”
Zhu Di kept a straight face and stared at Liu Chun viciously, "In half a year, I will have my fiftieth birthday." Zhu Di said very abruptly, but Liu Chun hadn't reacted yet.
"That...... Congratulations to Your Majesty, long live and live a long life! ”
Zhu Di slapped the table angrily, "Liu Chun, I want to tell you, don't treat me as a three-year-old child...... Say whatever you want! ”
Liu Chun was said to have no temper, this person is of course very materialistic, but from ancient times to the present, there is no shortage of people who sacrifice their lives for righteousness, and there is no lack of self-sacrifice, just like many literati, what they seek is not fame and wealth, but fame and history. In order to be able to leave a line of words, and even take the initiative to anger the emperor, change the board, life is meaningful.
Although such a person is very distorted and very undesirable. But at least it shows that there are many people who still pursue spiritual satisfaction.
is like Zhu Di, he works hard, but he just wants to engrave his name in the annals of history.
In life, you always have to leave something for future generations to remember, if it is just money and wealth, it is too embarrassing......
Liu Chun explained his thoughts, but Zhu Di was not surprised.
"If I'm not mistaken, you did it this way in the factory, right?"
Liu Chun nodded, there is indeed a rating system in the factory, and when the craftsman reaches a certain level, he will get the corresponding treatment. If you have outstanding contributions, you can also get a card, hang it on your chest, and everyone should respect and look up, which is the embodiment of real ability and great merit.
"Your Majesty, in fact, this mode has also been used by the first emperor, it is Pixiuwei!"
"Pixiuwei!"
Zhu Di finally remembered that Liu Chun had also been in charge of Jade Pixiu...... From the jade pixiu below, there are different grades of gold, silver, and bronze, so it seems that Dad is really a genius.
"Liu Chun, tell me the truth, how many Pixiu Wei people are left?" Zhu Di asked.
Liu Chun stretched out two fingers, "Just two." ”
"Who?"
Liu Chun pointed to his nose, and then said, "Zhang Dingbian!" ”
When Zhu Di heard this, he also hesitated.
That old guy seems to be older than his father, and his father has been gone for more than ten years, why is he still alive? If this trend continues, maybe I won't be able to survive him, so how can I be reasonable?
If I can't stand it anymore, I'll take all these threatening people away, and leave no one behind!
Zhu Laosi thought through gritted teeth.
"Let's not talk about Pixiuwei, do you plan to use jade, gold, silver, and bronze as a distinction to reward meritorious soldiers?"
"The minister does have this intention, but this time the medal should be beautifully designed, and the minister will come up with plans and samples soon."
Zhu Di was pleased, "I'm waiting for your good news." ”
Liu Chun returned to the mansion, and unexpectedly, the three ladies all came over, and after listening to Liu Chun's introduction, they understood. Especially Li Wufang, she smiled and said: "Don't worry, my lord, this thing can be done well by the concubine, and I guarantee that this medal will look luxurious and magnificent, and everyone wants it!" ”
As soon as they said they would do it, they immediately took action.
Liu Chun's subordinates have a large number of talents, not only those civil and military generals, but also many skilled craftsmen.
Li Wufang first drew a sample of the pattern, and then handed it over to Lan Xinyue for review, and after it passed, it was Xu Miaojin who organized the manpower to rush to make it overnight.
Take the first-class gold medal as an example, the whole medal is star-shaped, the middle is round, and there are two golden dragons entrenched on it, with red gold ground, a green dragon, gold scales, a large pearl embedded in it, a small pearl embedded in the dragon, and a small pearl inlaid along the edge, red gold star.
The second class is based on silver, the two dragons still use gold land, the green dragon, and the golden scales, but instead of using pearls, they are changed to small red coral embedded with a smooth surface, and a large red coral with a smooth surface is embedded in the middle, and a small pearl is inlaid with a week, and the silver star is ......
When these two samples were taken out, Liu Chun's eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't help but stretch out his thumb!
It's so good, it's beautiful!
The whole medal is full of materials and exquisite craftsmanship, which is very eye-catching.
Moreover, the first-class gold medallion is made of a bright yellow ribbon, which can be hung around the neck or pinned to the chest, no matter which way it is worn, it is as if the stars are worn on the chest.
"It's good, indeed." Liu Chun praised again and again, "It makes me want to wear one." ”
Xu Miaojin covered his mouth and chuckled, "As a master, the master is in power, and he doesn't wear whatever he wants." The concubine will be put on for you now. ”
Liu Chun hurriedly waved his hand and scolded: "Don't mess around! This is the highest honor of the Ming Dynasty, and it cannot be worn unless it is a great achievement, if I give myself a medal, I will laugh and be generous. ”
Thinking of the senior who kept giving him medals, Liu Chun couldn't help but shake his head, he couldn't be stupid.
The next day, Liu Chun brought the finished set of medals into the palace and sent them to Zhu Di.
"Your Majesty, please see."
After Zhu Di unfolded the box, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but clap his hands and praise.
"It's really good!"
Zhu Di grabbed a few more copies and handed them to Liu Chun, which had been sent to Zhu Di in the past few days.
The princes and nobles of Jingnan are all suggesting that the returning heroes should be rewarded heavily.
And they also said in their words that they had made such a great contribution to their lives and deaths, if they did not seal their wives and sons, how could they show respect for them?
The most important thing in the court is to reward and punish fairly.
Only in this way can the subjects and the people be willing to contribute to the court.
Otherwise, if there is a great merit and no reward, who will contribute to the court?
These people are talking about the heroes who have returned, but everyone can hear that they are crying out for themselves!
We are the heroes of Jingjing, without us being born and dying, why should you Zhu Di be the emperor?
As a result, it changed back and forth, changed to our heads, and deprived us of our military powers, so that we gave up control over the generals and soldiers below.
It's tolerable, it's unbearable!
Originally, I thought of admonishing His Majesty the Emperor through the Zhang family.
But now, the line of the Zhang family doesn't work, and we have to have a showdown with you.
Zhu Di, let me ask you, do you remember what you promised when you first ascended the throne? You have said that you will share the wealth and glory with us.
It's only been less than ten years, have you forgotten?
The nobles were filled with righteous indignation, and at this time, Zhu Di issued an edict to reward Chang Mao and other meritorious heroes in the Fengtian Palace. All civil and military personnel were required to be present to observe the ceremony.
At this moment, Wang Cong, Huo Zhen, Wang Zhong and others were all overjoyed, a total of nearly 20 princes and uncles who were martyred, and they were all gearing up, it depends on how Zhu Di treats the heroes!
