Chapter 526: Enter the dynasty

Chapter 526 Entering the court

In fact, not only Li Chenggui, but everyone in Korea who had the opportunity to talk to Jiang Side sent letters. Zhu Biao glanced at the name and put it aside. There are few people in Korea who really deserve his special attention, and a group of officials who are sycophant are not qualified wasting his time.

Picking up Jiang Side's letter, since King Gongmin was assassinated and died, Empress Dowager Mingde and her servant Qing Fuxing planned to choose another person in the clan to be king, and even Ye Sudieer, who was far away in the north, also planned to intervene.

Under the support of the pro-Mongolian faction inside Goryeo, Tutuo Buhua, the king of Shen who wanted to be established in Oarai, became the new king of Goryeo. More than 20 years ago, he was sent to the Yuan Dynasty by the Koryo clan to serve as the guard of Emperor Yuan Shun, and he was actually a proton.

However, this person is indeed a member of the Goryeo clan. He is very good in terms of age and ability. It is rumored that Sudieer also trusts him very much. It is a pity that Zhu Biao has already started to deploy in Goryeo. It's so whimsical.

Even after nearly a hundred years of the Yuan Dynasty, there were many pro-Yuan official families in Goryeo, but they were extremely realistic, not to mention that the leader of the family, Li Renren, was an old and cunning person, and he knew that Goryeo was not qualified to sway.

Calculating the time, the imperial edict for the Ming Dynasty to confer Wang Xuan as the king of Korea should have arrived, and it is estimated that Li Renren should also follow the trend to push Wang Xuan to the throne. At this time, the overall situation has been decided.

In fact, this is the fact that Zhu Biao and the Goryeo family teamed up to completely suppress the strongest clan in Goryeo. It can be predicted that after Wang Yu came to power, the Empress Dowager Mingde and other clan forces would all be encircled and suppressed by the joint efforts of the two parties.

In the future, the royal family will only be puppets, and the real power of Goryeo will be in the hands of Zhu Biao and the Goryeo family. It will depend on who has the upper hand. Overwhelming time in all directions.

This battle within the rule system may last for several years. After all, Zhu Biao does not want to use force to resolve this matter, and the bitter cold of Goryeo is not worthy of Ming's mobilization.

But now the two sides are still in the honeymoon period, the benefits gained from the victory have not yet been divided, and the Goryeo family only thinks that Zhu Biao's arrangement is just to let him and the princess' heir inherit the Goryeo throne in the future. Opportunity for Daming Jiangshan.

Zhu Biao wrote a letter to Jiang Side and Li Renren each, requesting that Goryeo send troops to Liaodong to attack the Naha branch after the beginning of spring. It must be full of momentum, and the troops must not retreat without his order.

A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Regardless of internal and external troubles in Goryeo, it is not a problem to cause huge pressure on Naha.

After Liaodong was attached, Daming bordered on Koryo again. At that time, it was also beneficial for Daming to infiltrate and put pressure on Koryo, and the Jurchen Ministry entrenched in Liaodong also had to find a way to divide and disintegrate...

After finishing writing, Zhu Biao leaned on the chair and stared blankly for a while. Today's tossing, but in the next five days, it stopped. Officials can also go out to visit relatives and walk around with each other. It is conceivable that relatives The military captain's mansion and the inspection schools in various places are going to be busy again.

I don't know how many stupid people who think they are clever and want to give gifts to Shangguan, and then they are crushed into the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and their families are ruined. I have to say that the effect of using heavy codes in this troubled world is quite obvious. At least there are too few people who give gifts in secret. Yes, I'm really scared.

If it were in other dynasties, it would be very upright for lower officials to give grand gifts to upper officials, and for high officials to give rare treasures to the emperor, but it was obviously not acceptable in the Hongwu Dynasty.

Old Zhu will ask you directly, how did you get this treasure with your salary?

If you can’t answer the question, you can imagine the result. This is also a positive atmosphere. The effect is subtle, but it is real, at least far stronger than that of the Song and Yuan Dynasties.

After a while, Zhu Biao went back to his concubine's dormitory. At least until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, he would only rest at Chang Luohua's place. This is the honor of a first wife.

After the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the first court meeting of the year was ushered in. In fact, it was nothing special. It was just kneeling and worshiping as usual. In the afternoon, the father and son had to pay for the leisure of the previous few days, and they worked hard until late at night. go.

The yamen of all ministries are similar. It took more than ten days of busy work to completely resolve all the documents accumulated during this period, and the government affairs were back on track. That is, in the past ten days, eight officials above the fifth rank in the court were sent to the Ministry of Punishment. prison.

There are countless people who have been impeached by the imperial censor who inspected and returned to the imperial court, especially the officials of the seventh rank and above in the local state capitals. More than 40 people with convincing evidence of corruption and perverting the law are all guilty of copying and beheading.

The cold-faced Emperor Hongwu set off a new round of anti-corruption storm again. Just as the joy of the Spring Festival has not yet dissipated, officials big and small in the world fell into panic again.

The officials Zhu Biao asked Chen Youzong and others to prepare on New Year’s Day also came in handy.

Prime Minister Hu Weiyong naturally bears the brunt of the panic in the officialdom, but he can only carry out the will of the emperor on the surface, but secretly protects many officials and generals who hold important positions, but these are also under the watchful eye of Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Biao was detached from the temple, and could clearly feel the impact of the crackdown on corruption. Perhaps the officials did not expect that the emperor really planned to carry this matter through to the end, leaving them no room to breathe.

These officials who grew up in the Yuan Dynasty are really hard to accept. After all, in their era, it was normal for officials to oppress the people and search for the people's fat and anointment. They didn't even need to be ashamed. Why did the atmosphere change so suddenly?

It can be foreseen that such a result will be that severe punishment will obey the order and fear the law for a while, clean oneself and love the people, and become the top leader.

In mid-February, a group of chieftains from Guizhou finally arrived in the capital. Zhu Yuanzhang ordered officials from the Ministry of Rites to welcome them and arrange them properly. Obviously, they wanted to let them air out first, otherwise they would think that Ming was begging them.

Zhu Biao also meant the same thing. Guizhou is not easy to govern, but it definitely doesn’t mean that Daming has nothing to do with them.

The land of Guizhou is full of high mountains and deep greens, birds and silkworms, all kinds of barbarians, addicted to **** and killing, and irregular clothes. This is the impression of most officials in the court. They don't believe the chieftain who came to surrender this time , There are even extreme suggestions that these chieftains are directly killed, and they are sending troops to sweep up all the tribes in Guizhou.

Zhu Yuanzhang's answer is: "The barbarians are far away, and they come to pay rent and taxes, and they can obey the teachings. Caress them so that everyone can live in peace, and then they can enjoy wealth and honor for a long time. There is no more courtesy than respecting your superiors, and virtue is more prosperous than loving your subordinates. Being able to respect and love is the way of being a minister."

Zhu Biao ordered Wu Bozong and Li Qi, who had rushed back from the north, to arrange for these chieftains to watch in Beijing. After three days, they first summoned the group of chieftains in the Hall of Martial Arts.

Longzan Aqi, chieftain of Shuixi, Mongolian Ei of Song Dynasty of Shuidong, Shi Er, chieftain of Puding, Tian Jin, chieftain of Sinan, Yang Sui, chieftain of Bozhou, etc., led by Li Qi and other officials from the Ministry of Rites, entered the hall .

They had already arrived at the capital of Daming, so they were naturally unconvinced. They all knelt down on the ground obediently, and greeted His Highness the Crown Prince of Daming in a rather strange tone.

The group of people were dressed quite normally, Zhu Biao solemnly raised his hand slightly and said: "Everyone has worked hard from a long distance, and I will give you a seat free of charge."

The group of people didn't even dare to say anything, they just stood up in a regular manner, but they didn't dare to raise their eyes to look around, Zhu Biao was a little helpless seeing them so well-behaved, if this is the case, how can you kill the chickens to warn the monkeys, you shouldn't be more rebellious ?

It’s just that there are basically no stupid people who can lead a party. They are all human beings. The reason why people have to bow their heads under the eaves is very clear.
