First Prince of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 275 Detention policy



On the fifth day after that day, the news of the Southwest victory finally came. After Fu Youde's soldiers surrounded Chengdu, Ming Sheng tied his hands behind his back, carried a coffin, and surrendered with his mother Peng and his officials. Tang He wrote a letter asking the emperor what to do disposal.

In ancient times, communication was troublesome. Fortunately, Zhu Yuanzhang's order had been sent to Bashu three days ago, and it had already written what to do if Mingsheng surrendered. Tang He could start to deal with it after receiving the order.

That night, specific information came from the Duwei's Mansion of the pro-military forces. It turned out that their people had already contacted Ming Sheng's mother, Mrs. Peng.

With the Empress Dowager at the helm, those ministers who had secretly taken refuge in Xia Guozhong naturally strongly supported it. Only Prime Minister Liu Ren insisted that he should abandon Chengdu and continue to flee south, relying on the geographical advantage to refuse to guard the pass. It is a pity that the general trend is not to mention Liu Ren, but Zhuge Wuhou Resurrection is also difficult to stop the trend of Haohao Tangtang.

The imperial court was full of congratulations, and Zhu Yuanzhang also gave a banquet and issued an amnesty to Bashu.

Liu Bowen and others have also officially set off, and they still have to rush to Bashu to take charge of the overall situation. Zhu Biao also added Liu Bowen's son, so that Liu Bowen will have someone to serve him along the way. After all, Bashu is different from the Central Plains. bother.

At this time, Zhu Biao also transferred the prefect of Hangzhou to Zhongshu Province. Chen Youzong had already kowtowed in the East Palace, and Zhu Biao didn't say much, but the chief officer of the newly created Tongzheng Envoy is currently designated as the fourth grade. Zhu Biao intends to let him take the position.

There were quite a few children from the Jiangnan family who accompanied them, but they were not qualified to visit the East Palace, and they were not easy to arrange because they had no official position or occupation.

Most of the people in Fengyang have also been transferred back by Zhu Biao, and those more than 200 new scholars from last year have also been sent to other places to serve. Among them, Guo Chong naturally entered the Imperial Academy. After all, he is the number one scholar. Not ordinary people are qualified to enter.

It is a place for talent cultivation and hope. It is responsible for compiling books and writing history, drafting imperial edicts, reading for members of the royal family, and serving as examiners for imperial examinations.

Zhang Fan is the second place in the list and should be the editor of the Hanlin Academy, but this person is more interested in local experience, Zhu Biao appreciates people who do practical things, and still let him be named in the Imperial Academy, and then transferred to Renzhi County in the north. Put it in Jiangnan.

There is also Wu Bozong and Li Jin, both of them have stayed in the capital. Wu Bozong is quite interested in astronomy, and Zhu Biao of course supports it. Li Jin entered the Ministry of Households and took the official position of the seventh rank. With his intelligence, it is estimated that he will soon will climb up.

There is also a large group of honorable children, their starting point is higher, higher than the Jinshi who were born in the imperial examination, Zhu Yuanzhang even specially met them once, and then immediately added them to the imperial court system.

There is a shortage of manpower everywhere, and the children of Xungui can be said to be the direct descendants of Daming, so they are naturally not comparable to outsiders. From the sixth rank to the fourth rank, they have been placed in all aspects. Fortunately, they have grown a lot after the experience in Fengyang.

In fact, if there is a choice, Zhu Biao is absolutely unwilling to put them into the imperial court just like this. Unfortunately, there is a shortage of cadres, and the Jinshi have to progress step by step, and they can't all be taken by the aristocratic family.

In the end, it can only be the lesser of two evils. However, after this major change, Daming will not make any major moves in recent years, and it can also train a group of officials with peace of mind. It has not stopped since the founding of the country. After fighting and taking Nabashu, you can rest and recuperate.

Except for the north, we still need to focus on defense, but the troops in other places have to start large-scale military settlements. Now the fertile land in the territory has basically been taken, and the rest of Tibet and Yunnan are a bit of a pity that they are tasteless and discarded.

Rather than wasting energy to attack, it is better to restore people's livelihood as soon as possible. It is not too late to make plans later. Zhu Yuanzhang has also sent envoys to appease, and the most important thing is peace.

Fortunately, the internal struggles in these two places were relatively fierce, and they didn't want to be enemies with Daming at all, so the envoys communicated quite harmoniously. The Duan family of Dali even sent a clan girl over, and Lao Zhu accepted it.

After Daming got in touch with the Duan family, the Liang Wang of the Yuan Dynasty who refused to defend Kunming also expressed his willingness to surrender and sent a lot of tribute. After the Sichuan-Guizhou area was pacified by Daming, he was very panicked, for fear that Daming would take advantage of the situation and go south. Recover Yunnan.

Zhu Yuanzhang also sent envoys to appease and provoke the relationship between King Liang and the Duan family from time to time. The harder the two dogs bite each other, the better. Daming is happy to see it.

As for Tibet, the so-called Tubo, in the second year of Hongwu, the Ming Dynasty sent officials to Tibet with edicts, ordering the chiefs of all ethnic groups to elect former officials to Beijing for appointment.

Zhu Yuanzhang wrote the edict in his own hand, saying, Order the generals to lead the division, and they will find peace in the sea. The subjects recommend him as the lord of the world, the country is named Daming, and the Yuan Hongwu is established. It is the way of my former king, using Kang Lishu. But you Tubo, the state lives in the West, and today China is unified. I haven't heard of it yet, so I'm hereby issuing an edict.

After that, Tubo was still watching, and only a small number of tribal chiefs went to Beijing to meet them. However, Suonanpu, the marshal of the Tubo Xuanwei Sidu who was conferred by the Yuan Dynasty, still did not surrender, but just retreated blindly to the plateau area.

Last year, the imperial court only sent tens of thousands of troops to recover Tao, Min and other prefectures, and entered Hezhou, the seat of the Marshal's Mansion of the Consolation Envoy Sidu in Tubo and other places of the Ke Yuan Dynasty. He looked very afraid.

However, the situation seems to have changed now. I don’t know what happened inside it. A few days ago, Pamu Drupadi Shi Shakya Gyaltsen, who controlled most of Tibet, sent envoys to the court to pay tribute to Buddha statues, Buddhist books, and relics. Ask Daming to canonize him as Da Situ and Vajra Mahayana Dharma King, and to recognize him as King of Xinzang.

Naturally, Zhu Yuanzhang would not agree easily. These titles were nothing to Ming Dynasty. After all, Ming Dynasty did not believe in Lamaism like the Yuan Dynasty, but they could not be canonized easily. At least they had to find out what happened in Tibet.

Within a few days, Tibet's hereditary lord of Xiwu Jingwang Bu Nala, who is the fifth grandson of Kublai Khan's seventh son, Xiping King Oruchi, also sent envoys to Beijing to request his surrender, but he hoped that Ming would support him. He rules Tibet.

Unexpectedly, the most powerful forces in Tubo suddenly asked for surrender. Daming originally planned to wait a few years until he became financially rich and managed Tibet, but he didn't expect them to mess up first.

This is naturally a good thing, but it is not good to agree too easily, so Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the prince to deal with the matter, and Zhu Biao naturally readily agreed. Reviewing memorials every day is almost boring to death.

Of course, not only Zhu Biao is boring, but Lao Zhu is also the same. He was quite relaxed when he was free, and it was over after going to court and meeting every day. But for a workaholic like him, it is shameful to just spend the day like this Yes, it is better to approve a batch of memorials for peace of mind.
