Transformed into a Princess of the Late Ming Dynasty: Invincible

Zhu Mianzhu opened her eyes and looked at the gradually rising dusk outside the window. She spread her mind and sensed that there were more than a thousand officials coming to court in front of Taihe Gate.

I guess the spies sent by the Ministry of War to Liaodong have returned and verified the accuracy of the news, so so many people came to the court.

Not to mention anything else, just the hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, tens of thousands of war horses, and hundreds of thousands of young and strong men, the benefits are too huge.

Zhu Mianzhu touched Man Sui's collarbone beside her and said, "It's time to get up. I'm afraid I have something important to do today."

Hearing Zhu Mianchu's voice, Mansui and Xiaohuan opened their eyes in a daze. They had been having fish soup for dinner these past few days and were so sleepy.

In front of the dressing table, Man Sui and Xiao Huan opened their hazy eyes, helping her wash and dress. Zhu Mianzhu looked at the little girl in the mirror and thought to herself:

"The Ming and Qing dynasties were the two most oppressive dynasties for women. As a woman, being granted a manor and fields would already be something other princesses would envy, let alone this request for a fiefdom and the position of Shangshuling."

The fiefdom plus the Shangshuling is equivalent to a country within a country, and all income from the fiefdom does not need to be handed over to the court." The Shangshuling can promote officials at will without reporting to the court, and the taxes and personnel are all his own people. No wonder Chongzhen reacted so strongly at the beginning.

However, for these civil service groups, a new emperor appoints new ministers. After Zhu Mianzhu came to power, she would definitely promote people who obey her orders. Therefore, there is no need to care about the opinions of these people. Just let them shut up today.

A mortal world involves too much energy. If it is not the world you were born in, there is no need to spend so much energy!

After washing up and putting on a Confucian dress, Man Sui looked in the mirror and braided her hair in imitation of the Daci Tree King's hairstyle. The young version of the Daci Tree King appeared...

At this time, a eunuch's voice came from outside Kunning Palace:

"Your Majesty has ordered Princess Kunxing to immediately appear before the Taihe Gate for an audience."

You came so soon, turning to look at Man Sui and Xiao Huan:

"You guys can eat breakfast first, no need to wait for me."

After saying this, he stepped out of the palace and followed the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict to Taihe Gate.

In front of the Taihe Gate, Zhu Mianzhu, dressed in a Confucian dress, stood in the center, looking out of place with the officials on either side in their court robes. Then she heard Chongzhen say from above:

"How should Kunxing's Princess Guard be rewarded for such a great achievement?"

The officials in the audience said nothing. In their opinion, how could this be possible? Not to mention the princess, even if the prince had 20,000 soldiers obeying his orders, it could be considered treason, not to mention the rewards.

It was a great blessing that he was not arrested and imprisoned immediately.

Chongzhen saw that all the ministers below were silent. Great, no one spoke up for me and shared my worries.

Then he said to himself:

"Princess Kunxing's troops wiped out over 50,000 elite Jiannu troops and rescued over 200,000 Ming civilians, securing countless treasures."

After saying that, Chongzhen stood up and looked at the officials who were bowing their heads and keeping silent below, and sneered in his heart, since you are so united, let's make the fire burn bigger!

I was thinking about the reward that Li Yuan of the Tang Dynasty gave to Li Shimin, which I had written down last night.

"Given Princess Kunxing's great achievements, I will grant her no honors too great. I will further confer upon her the title of Prince of Yan, with a fief of 20,000 households, and I will also grant you the title of Minister of the Henan Circuit."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Chongzhen glanced at Zhu Mianzhu, his eyes indicating that he had said what he wanted to say, and now it was her turn to act.

Chongzhen then said: "If there is no objection, then the title will be conferred accordingly."

All the civil servants below looked up, as if stunned by Chongzhen's words! Those who could enter the court were all scholars. Even if they were not well-versed in ancient and modern times, they must at least have read history books. Who didn't know the stories of Emperor Taizong of Tang and Emperor Wu of Han?

The Grand Chancellor of the Imperial Secretariat was an exclusive reward given to the princes in the early Tang Dynasty. Only members of the royal family could have it. The Grand Chancellor of the Imperial Secretariat could freely promote officials without reporting to the court, and could even set up imperial examinations on his own!

Henan Dao was even more astonishingly large. There were only thirteen provincial governors in the entire Ming Dynasty, and Henan Dao occupied two of them. The area east of Luoyang, including the entire Shandong Province, most of Henan, and the northern part of Nanzhili were all under the jurisdiction of Henan Dao.

The title of Prince of Yan has never been conferred since Zhu Di, the fourth son of Taizu, led an army to quell the rebellion and ascended the throne.

A fief of 20,000 households is something that few people could achieve even through searching through history books. The last person to have a fief of 20,000 households was Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin, more than a thousand years ago.

Hundreds of officials immediately stood up, saluted, and said in unison: "Your Majesty, I have a memorial to tell you."

Hearing the unanimous voices of hundreds of people behind him, Zhu Mianchu turned around and looked at them with the look of a loyal minister, and then used elemental power to seal their mouths.

Zhu Mianzhu looked at the hundreds of people standing in front of the Taihe Gate, as if she wanted to speak but no sound came out. The six ministers and cabinet ministers in the front did not hear any sound from the back for a long time, so they secretly turned around to look.

Seeing the scene of hundreds of people losing their voices, everyone was shocked and couldn't help but think of the meteorite a few days ago. Could it be that a god really came to the world?

However, the title of princess was such a great reward, and in history, only Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin, had ever given such a great reward. After all, a princess is a woman, so...

Zhu Mianzhu watched as the Minister of Rites and several other ministers were about to step out of the procession. She smiled faintly at the ministers with the highest official positions in front of them.

"Those who oppose it will be punished by God."

Several ministers were about to raise their legs when they heard Zhu Mianchu's voice and immediately retracted their legs. Although they didn't know whether it was really a punishment from heaven, they recalled the meteorite a few days ago and what they saw in the court today.

"I'm scared, I'm scared. Anyway, you Zhu family can do whatever you want with the world. Even if there is a change of dynasties, it will not affect the status of my family."

Afterwards, these ministers and the prime minister made a gesture to the back, and the hundreds of people behind them slowly retreated to their original positions.

Chongzhen looked at the civil officials in the court below who were all of one mind, and suddenly felt that he didn't want to be the emperor for another day.

Seeing that no one objected, Chongzhen said:

"Since no one has submitted a memorial, I will announce the reward to the Princess to the world."

After saying that, he walked towards the door.

Wang Chengen also preached at this time:

"Retreat!"

Zhu Mianzhu looked up at the dragon throne, then at the officials who turned and walked out of the palace. She suddenly felt that it was not easy to be Emperor Chongzhen. No one listened to him. Even if he issued an edict, the people below would only pretend to obey and not put in any effort, so nothing could be done.

Zhu Mianzhu waved to the eunuch who had not left yet.

"Your Highness Prince Yan, what are your instructions?"

"Go to Kunning Palace and call my two maids over."

After hearing this, the eunuch quickly said, "As you command, Your Highness Prince Yan."

After a while, Xiaohuan and Mansui arrived in front of Taihe Gate and stood silently behind Zhu Mianzhu.

Zhu Mianzhu looked at the two people in their palace maid uniforms and said to them, "Follow me to the camp outside the city."

In the east of the city, Zhu Mianzhu's eight hundred men were training in a simple field. They saw Man Sui, dressed in palace maid's clothes, from a distance. They all stopped and said:

"Lord Mansui!"

Zhu Mianzhu didn't say anything. After all, this world was just a mortal world. With the full force of the Great Compassion Tree King, destroying a star would be just a matter of raising his hand. However, this was the world that gave birth to her, so she couldn't be as ruthless as Zhao Fujin.

Pack up your firearms, put on your armor, wear your swords, and follow me to the capital.

He spread his divine consciousness and found the two people in Pinggu County. Then a voice came to Zhao Yi and Wu Cheng's mind:

"Ride your horses and bring your men to the capital."

Zhao Yi and Wu Cheng exchanged a look of shock. What was he trying to do? A usurpation of the throne?

Then I couldn't help but think of the horrific scene of the meteorite falling a few days ago. Even if a million-strong army came, they would be reduced to dust in one blow.
