I am the king of the dead

After the five-person tomb resisted the tax, the yellow-clothed envoys of the Ming Dynasty could no longer leave the capital for half a step.

Zhu Qiyu put down the memorabilia and said with a smile: "These people can always come up with some new tricks, so I can make you smile."

Xing'an said suspiciously: "Your Majesty, do you want to send a few cavalry to protect Li Binyan, or order him to return to Beijing? It just so happens that Chen Yi and Chen Zongxian want to go to Nanya to supervise the important affairs of Qiu Wei. It will save money if you change it." Governor Li suffered a disaster."

Xing'an is really for the good of Li Binyan. Li Binyan hasn't been in Beijing for a long time, and he happened to return to Beijing under the pretext of confiscating Zhao Mingrui, profiteers and other criminals.

First, you can go to the capital to meet the saint, and explain it clearly face to face. Li Binyan said that the holy family is upright, but the holy family is easy to lose if you don't meet the holy family for a long time.

Second, avoid the sharp edge for the time being. This time there was a lot of noise. Nearly [-] people were arrested at once, and more than [-] of them were beheaded. This is really a major case.

The wind in Nanya was extremely strong, Xing'an was afraid that Li Binyan would not be able to withstand it, Chen Yi just wanted to go to Nanya, isn't it just right?

Thirdly, it is natural to let Li Binyan rest and rest. Li Binyan has returned to Beijing once since Jingtai left Beijing to govern Shandong in early [-]nd year. He has been busy all the time, not only busy but also dangerous. Take a few months off.

Three birds with one stone.

Protective recall to the capital, protective temporary rest.

Zhu Qiyu said with a smile: "Your idea is very good, but Li Binyan himself is not happy."

"Why isn't he happy?" Xing'an said suspiciously: "A reward card? He can indeed have a reward card for this Zhoushan naval battle, but he shouldn't be so desperate."

Why don't you want to go back to Beijing and get promoted after the case is over?

"He's for himself." Zhu Qiyu nodded and said with a smile: "I can't control him, of course I decree that he will come back naturally, but since he wants to, then let him do it, let him go .”

Zhu Qiyu picked up the memorabilia of the three of Yue Qian, looked at it twice, his eyebrows twitched, and he said helplessly: "The third prince and his grandfather, how can he be so troublesome, now he is a guest of honor in the Ryukyu Kingdom."

Tang Yunyan has nothing to do with this adventurous father, if Tang Yunyan finds out about it, there will be no lack of pillow trouble.

"Yue Qian, Ji Duo and Yuan Bin have done a good job, and I am very pleased." Zhu Qiyu was very satisfied with the three people's pursuit of souls and lives.

"As for the Ryukyu Kingdom's request to Ming Dynasty to give officials and soldiers, you go and ask Hu Shangshu to come."

Xing'an left in a hurry, and before he went out, he saw Hu Yan walking into the courtyard of the capital lecture hall, and had already walked to the gate of Juxian Pavilion.

"Coincidentally, Your Majesty asked Hu Shangshu for some questions." Xing'an greeted him and said with a smile.

When Hu Wei went upstairs, he paused for a moment before reaching the second floor.

"See Your Majesty, is Your Majesty safe?" Hu Wei saluted.

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said: "I bow down, sit down, Hu Shangshu has a look, the memorial from Ryukyu."

Hu Wei put on reading glasses, looked at it for a long time and said, "Your Majesty, Yue Qian and the other three are very powerful."

"The Ryukyu Kingdom invites officials and soldiers, what does Hu Shangshu think about this matter?" Zhu Qiyu said a little uncertainly.

"The merit of opening up the border was requested by the king of Ryukyu, but it was requested by the people of Ryukyu, and I think it is a good thing." Hu Wei first expressed his opinion on this matter, and then changed the subject: "But you can't act too hastily."

"The minister thought that the officials would be sent first, then the officers and soldiers, and finally the prefectures and counties of Ryukyu, just like the prefectures and counties of Jiaozhi."

Zhu Qiyu couldn't stop nodding and said: "I think so too, first send envoys there, and make plans after getting to know the details."

"Hu Shangshu is really old-fashioned to seek the country."

Hu Yi hurriedly bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty praises you so much, but I'm terrified."

"That's what was done in the prefectures and counties during the Yongle period. The minister is just picking up people's tooth wisdom."

Everything can be done according to the law of the ancestors, Hu Wei's meaning is very clear, what is the country without conquest?

Isn't Annan a country without conquest?Wasn't it the same afterward?It also transformed Jiaozhi County into a county.

The times are changing, and the law of the ancestors is not to stick to the rules, but to understand its spirit, adapt to the current situation, and adjust the policy.

What an outrageous thing, the ancestors have done it before, Your Majesty has done it boldly, the Ministry of Rites has finished watering, and His Majesty can start washing the floor with an order.

Zhu Qiyu took out Li Binyan's memorial and handed it to Hu Wei.

When Hu Yan saw half of it, his face turned red, he blew his beard and stared and shouted angrily: "Three times, lawlessness! It's lawlessness! Your Majesty, they are... lawlessness!"

Hu Yan's mouth is so capable of talking, it can make Hu Yan run out of words, which shows how angry this incident made him.

What made Hu Wei so angry was naturally that he saw that the Ming army used rotten pork when rewarding the three armies, and more than [-] people died in the end.

After the Zhoushan naval battle, 300 people have not died yet!This was a reward, but he died. This has exceeded the bottom line that Hu Yan can bear.

"Damn! Damn! Your Majesty, sit down!"

"How to show the power of heaven without killing a few families!"

Hu Min's face was flushed with anger, and the Ministry of Rites could say the word Lian Zuo, which showed how angry Hu Min was.

Hu Yan clapped the memorabilia in his hand, and said with lingering anger: "Pingjiang Jinghai, for whom? Isn't it for the sea trade and people's livelihood? It's good for them, not working, and dragging their feet?! It's simply unreasonable!"

Zhu Qiyu signaled Xing'an to make a cup of tea, and said helplessly: "I had anticipated this kind of thing before, and specially ordered Li Binyan to teach the boss, don't make mistakes, don't make mistakes, how did they do it? "

"Ugh."

Hu Wei said with great conviction: "Your Majesty, this must be killed. Otherwise, the Ministry of War will have to play the chapter. 300 people died at the celebration banquet after the victory. If this is not punished, who will serve as a soldier in the future?"

Before the case of Hao Ren, there were happy events and funerals, and this time the celebration banquet was also held for happy events and funerals.

Although there are too many people involved this time, thousands of people will be beheaded at a time, but it is impossible not to kill them.

Zhu Qiyu said as a matter of course: "I didn't say I won't kill. After the investigation, I won't wrong the good people, but I will never let any bad people go."

"The wind in the Nanya, does Hu Shangshu think that Governor Li can resist it?" Zhu Qiyu still loves people very much, Li Binyan's straightforward nature, don't make things out of hand.

Hu Wei thought about it seriously, and said with a smile: "I thought that since Governor Li dared to do it, he must have been prepared, and he has gone through so many things."

"Let him try it. Anyway, with His Majesty around, things won't get out of hand."

Zhu Qiyu suddenly asked Xing'an suspiciously: "What has Yu Shaobao been up to lately?"

Chapter 415 Father is kind and son is filial, meet each other in battle

"I don't know too well." Xing'an said helplessly.

The matter of Yu Qian was not within the purview of the Supervisor of Rituals. Xing'an, who had always been very measured, did not pay too much attention to Yu Qian's actions.

There are some things that Xing'an can't touch, such as monitoring Yu Qian, or asking what Yu Qian is doing.

His Majesty did not grant him this authority. When arranging the defense of the Jiuzhong Hall, His Majesty selected two hundred Tielin soldiers from the Beijing camp instead of Jinyiwei.

Your Majesty is a very definite person and does not need to guess.

For example, His Majesty ordered him to kill the eunuchs such as Jin Ying and Cao Jixiang, completely replace the eunuchs in the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and monitor Ji Wangfu from top to bottom, etc.

His Majesty's orders are always very clear, such as curing Prince Ji's son's illness, and don't let the Tai Hospital make a misjudgment.

His Majesty seldom puts on airs and plays with the difficulty of the Sacred Heart.

Therefore, Xing'an did not monitor Yu Qian, whether it was Zhu Qiyu, Xing'an, Lu Zhong, or the ministers in the court, they would never believe that Yu Qian would do anything against the interests of Ming Dynasty, such as rebellion.

On this point, no one will doubt it.

"Does Hu Shangshu know what Yu Qian is doing?" Zhu Qiyu asked another person.

Hu Wei is an evergreen tree in the Ming Dynasty Hall, with many eyes and ears, if Yu Qian wants to do something big, he will definitely communicate with Hu Wei.

But Hu Wei shook his head and said, "I don't know what Yu Shaobao is doing recently."

Zhu Qiyu thought for a while and said, "Then let Yu Shaobao answer."

This is Zhu Qiyu's approach. Since you are curious, you can just call and ask.

Yu Qian is speaking in the martial arts hall. Although he is not in Juxian Pavilion, he is offering wine. Recently, he has indeed done a lot of things besides lecturing on the martial arts hall.

Xing'an said suspiciously: "Yu Shaobao, he seldom plays chess with His Majesty recently. What are you busy with? It's not what our family wants to ask, but His Majesty wants to ask."

Yu Qian said with a smile: "In that case, let's go with Da Dang."

He stood up, took out a few scrolls of paintings from the cabinet, and said with a smile, "Let's go."

"See Your Majesty, is Your Majesty blessed?" Yu Qian bowed his head and saluted with a smile on his face.

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said, "I bow, sit down."

Yu Qian did not wait for Zhu Qiyu to ask questions, but handed the scrolls of paintings in his hand to His Majesty, and said with a smile: "I have been studying the Western Regions recently."

In the broad sense of the Central Plains dynasty, the scope of the Western Regions is too large.

Out of Jiayuguan is the Western Regions. During the Hongwu period and the Yongle period, two attempts were made to fight out, but the pulling force was too small and the resistance was too great, so they failed to open up in the end.

Hu Wei looked at the map and said with a sigh: "The ancestors established Hexi, and the territory reached Shazhou and Hami."

"Since October of the fourth year of orthodoxy, the Seven Guanxi Guards outside Jiayuguan have continued to vengeance and murder. In the end, the Shazhou Guards moved inward, and the Ming Dynasty could no longer move westward."

Yu Qian has been busy with the westward march of the Oirats recently, and the first map he drew was the Chagatai Khanate.

What Hu Wei was talking about was a sign of the decline of Ming's dominance in the northwest region.

In October of the fourth year of orthodoxy, the Shazhou Guards moved inward, and Ming lost control of the Seven Guards west of Jiayuguan. This loss meant that all the efforts made during the Hongwu and Yongle years were in vain.

The Seven Guards of Kansai were the nails set up in the Western Regions during the Yongle period. The intention at that time was obvious. Once the Western Regions changed and the time was right, they would move westward, but the pull of westward movement was too small.

Hu Wei thought about it a little and said with emotion: "Hongwu and Yonglezhong, because the local chieftains are attached to them for defense, they are located near me and thinner than the north, so they cannot be regarded as foreign countries."

"This is the fifth year of orthodoxy. When the British Duke Zhang Fu heard that the Seven Guards of Kansai had moved in, he told King Jili the original words. They should not be regarded as foreign countries. They should find a way to regain the rule of the Seven Guards of Hami."

Zhu Qiyu asked calmly, "What did King Jili say?"

Hu Wei shook his head and said helplessly: "No, what I mean is that King Jili will not be released in the middle school."

"The vendetta of the seven guards in Kansai was actually done on purpose by Daming. During the Yongle period, Daming conferred the titles of Zhongshun and Zhongyi as Kings and Kansai, just to make them vengeful and unable to disturb the border."

During the Hongwu period, the hereditary emperors of the Northern Yuan Dynasty were abolished. During the Yongle period, Zhu Di took advantage of the contradictions of the various tribes in the Northern Yuan Dynasty in the fields of military, culture, economy, and tribe, and divided them into three parts: Tatar, Wala, and Wuliangha. big clan.

This division made it impossible for them to form a joint force to attack Daming together.

The same is true for setting up seven guards in Kansai and enshrining the second king.

Zhu Di conferred the titles of Zhongshun and Zhongyi Wang Jue, and let them fight each other. As long as they fight, Daming can be the referee. The main intervention method for the referee is the military strength of the Kansai Seven Guards.

As long as they fight, they don't have the strength to disturb the side.

But in the fourth year of orthodoxy, the last Kansai guard moved inward, which indicated that Ming was no longer able to be a referee.

But facing the out-of-control Kansai, Ji Li Wang Zhu Qizhen chose to close the door and live his own life.

This practice of closing the door to live his own life made Zhu Qiyu frown.

Every time Hu Wei talked about the Zhengtong period, he would frown, frown, and sigh. There was no way, he was not used to such a Ming Dynasty.

He worked as a governor everywhere during the Yongle period, and he had a contrast in his heart.

Hu Wei said helplessly: "In the fifth year of orthodoxy, Yang Shiqi made a memorial and said that the kindness established by the imperial court was very generous to the ancestors. It is ominous to be immoral. Be careful not to be deceived by others. However, he did not want to benefit the captives and detain the Han people, so he resold them. There were so many of them that the envoys continued to be violent and beaten to death, and they marched to the side of the military academy, and the ministers begged to cut off their tribute, and ordered them to loan them."

This is a very strange memorial. The background of the incident has a great relationship with the Kansai Seven Guards.

After the Qiwei moved inward, whether it was King Zhongshun or King Zhongyi, their goal of getting rich was immediately aimed at the people of Ming Dynasty.

King Zhongshun and King Zhongyi began to collude with captives to varying degrees, flirting with the Wala people.

The second king of Hami began to arrest the Han people who went out to do business and live. They were sold in a long string with ropes. If they wanted to go to the toilet, they had to untie their hands, so going to the toilet is also called "relieving hands" in some northern areas.

Moreover, the envoy sent by Daming was beaten to death.

Yang Shiqi's opinion on how to deal with it is: cut off the tribute, cut off the tribute of King Zhongshun and King Zhongyi!

It happened ten years ago, and the trees on Yang Shiqi's grave have all withered.

Hu Wei continued: "In the eighth year of orthodoxy, Wala attacked Hami, broke the city, and captured King Zhongshun, Queen Mother, Princess and others."

"King Zhongshun filed a complaint with the Ming court, and King Jili sent an envoy to Wala to appease the order. The Waranu chief also released King Zhongshun first, but did not let the queen mother go."

"Ten years of orthodoxy, Wala attacked Hami again, and captured King Zhongshun, Princess Wang and others for the second time. Wala is ambitious. He is testing the reaction of the Ming Dynasty."

"When the envoy was sent again for the second time, King Zhongshun was not released, and he has been living in Wala."

Zhu Qiyu frowned and savored for a long time, then asked doubtfully, "Singing double reeds?"

Hu Wei nodded and said, "Sing the double reed."

"Because the slave chief Yexian is actually the uncle of the loyal and obedient King Hali Suolutan, the mother of Hali Suolutan, and the sister of Yexian."

"Since the four years of Zhengtong, after the death of the previous King Zhongshun, Yexian's sister has been regent."

Fooling the Ming Dynasty, testing Ming's foreign policy, repeatedly jumping on the verge of death, watching Daming's reaction, and going further if there is no reaction.

Zhu Qiyu was almost laughed out of anger, he didn't know Yexian's relationship with King Zhongshun, let alone Yexian's sister's regent, he instinctively sensed something was wrong.

"After that, there will be the change of the civil castle." Hu Wei stopped explaining how Daming lost the Seven Guards of Kansai during the orthodox years.
