The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Chapter 253 Zhu Ying's Han Culture Export Strategy
"What does Dasun mean to move all these people outside of Daming?"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked in a deep voice.

Zhu Ying nodded and replied, "That's the case."

"Whether it's Annan, or Korea, or even the future Wa country, the natives in these places need to be educated."

"Whether it's from the Jiangnan area, or a scholar who has committed a crime, Sun Er feels that they should be given a chance to make a contribution."

"And in the future, the vassal kings will go to the vassals outside of Ming Dynasty, and they will also need the assistance of literati and businessmen around them, so that they can take care of the vassal state well. In the eyes of grandson, they can be regarded as not reading sage books in vain."

"It is also a good publicity for my Ming Dynasty's reputation."

The punishment of exile has existed since ancient times. What Zhu Yuanzhang heard from Dasun was to increase the number of exiles.

After thinking about it, Zhu Yuanzhang still felt good.

First of all, there is the problem of distance. Unlike the previous migration, you can pretend to be a refugee and run back. This is out of the territory of the Ming Dynasty, but it is not so easy to come back.

It's a journey of thousands of miles, and it doesn't mean that you can return by begging along the road.

"We don't care about reputation or anything, but Dasun's method has given many people a way to survive. Anyway, according to Dasun's method, except for some heinous criminals, all of them will be exiled instead."

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't feel much about Dasun's proposal, so he agreed directly.

Only Zhu Ying knew how much influence the decision made at such a meal would have on the future Ming Dynasty and even the whole world.

This is a continuous output. The most important thing is that these people, mainly scholars, will exert an inestimable influence outside of Daming.

It is an important foreshadowing of Zhu Ying's cultural export route.

The policy of establishing the Public Security Department, the Public Security Department, and the Public Security Department has separated the most important armed power from the magistrates, prefectures, and magistrates.

In the imperial court, no one dared to disobey Zhu Yuanzhang's decree.

But secretly, many officials and literati are resistant to this.

Suzhou City.

This place used to be the most prosperous place in Ming Dynasty, but now, it seems to be in decline.

After experiencing the 'Hongwu dispersal', many big clans in Suzhou City were directly moved out.

Even Changmen, the busiest place in Suzhou, is now much quieter than before.

However, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Compared with other areas in Ming Dynasty, Suzhou is still prosperous.

Suzhou prefect yamen.

Yang Youwen, the prefect, Song Xin, the prefect, and Xu Zhen, the prefect, gathered together.

Everyone was last year, and Hong Wu took office around 24 years, which can be regarded as the same period.

Among them, Yang Youwen was transferred from the Secretary of the Ministry of Industry of the Beijing Normal University.

From the ninth rank before to the current fourth rank, Yang Youwen has reached the sky in one step.

This is also because of the special nature of Suzhou.

The reason why such a situation can occur is only because of the position of the prefect of Suzhou, basically eight out of ten who came to take up the post died, and the remaining two, one was exiled and the other was demoted.

In the past 20 years, the prefect of Suzhou has changed 28 people.

Relatively speaking, when the Ming Dynasty was first established, there would be more replacements. For example, in the fourth year of Hongwu, four people were replaced one after another in just one year.

You know, this has to add the time on the road.

That is to say, each of these four magistrates worked for an average of three months, including those who took office.

Among the four, three were sentenced to death, and one was demoted to magistrate.

That's why the situation like Yang Youwen appeared.

Yang Youwen's previous magistrate, Wang Guan, worked for five years from 19 to 24.

This has something to do with Wang Guan's background, after all, he is a candidate for the imperial examination.

Most of the official positions now are still in the form of recommendation. Relatively speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang pays more attention to officials who have passed the imperial examination.

However, it may also have been corrupted by the local big family, and the end is not good.

From working last year to this year, Yang Youwen has been frightened for a long time. He often wakes up in his dreams, and suddenly a Jinyi guard arrives and arrests him to the capital.

"Master Yang, what do you mean by the order from the imperial court? To open a public security office in our city of Suzhou, isn't this equivalent to dividing your military power, my lord?"

"These individuals are said to have all come out of the army. In the future, Suzhou City, one prefecture and seven counties will have the right to arrest them."

Tongzhi Song Xin said in a strange way.

As a co-prefect, he was in charge of local salt, grain, piracy arrest, river defense, sea frontier, river engineering, water conservancy, clearing up military registration, appeasing the Sui people and barbarians and other affairs.

Now that the public security department came over and the robbers were arrested, it was not a big deal.

The key is that even most of the yamen servants under his command were directly sent away.

There is no one here, so there is nothing easy to do with things these days, which means that, as a fellow acquaintance, he has to negotiate with him on most matters.

This is actually not a big deal.

The most important thing is that the commander of the public security department belongs to the fourth rank, not to mention half rank lower than the magistrate, and is not under the jurisdiction of the magistrate.

Its superior officer is the Secretary of Justice corresponding to the Chief Secretary.

In other words, the current situation is that Suzhou Prefecture is no longer dominated by the magistrate, and the armed forces have been completely separated.

The magistrate no longer has the power to arrest people. Anyone who wants to be arrested must go through the Public Security Department. Whether to arrest or not is not the prefect's decision, but the commander of the public security department.

These are the contents of the authority of the Public Security Department in the documents issued by the imperial court.

Yang Youwen glanced at Song Xin, he knew very well that, unlike himself, Song Xin was recommended, and secretly had some unclear relationships with some big families in Suzhou.

Today's meeting of the three of them was also proposed and initiated by Song Xin.

As soon as these words came out, Yang Youwen understood that this was to provoke him to fight against the new Public Security Department.

"According to Song Tongzhi, what should we do? This is determined by His Majesty's decree. If you resist, you will have a bad life in the future."

"Oh, maybe I can't even pass the day. Is Song Tongzhi going to fight against His Majesty?"

Yang Youwen didn't speak, but Xu Zhen, the general judge on the other side, spoke directly without hesitation.

Obviously, Xu Zhen is with Yang Youwen, otherwise Yang Youwen alone would not be able to fight against these big families in Suzhou.

After all, the yamen servants in the yamen are basically locals from Suzhou. I don't know if the people below will follow some decrees.

And because the prefects of Suzhou changed too quickly, few prefects were able to support the corresponding resistance forces, and they were pulled down before they had time to take any action.

When Song Xin heard this, he immediately said: "Your Majesty's meaning, we naturally dare not disobey, but those Qiu Ba, who can't read a single character, know how to arrest robbers."

"In my opinion, even the Public Security Department has to rely on the magistrate to complete the matter successfully. Otherwise, we ordinary people in Suzhou may not be able to take care of them."

"Master Zhifu thinks that the words of the next official are justified."

Song Xin has the support of a big family in Suzhou, and he speaks extremely tough. He is not too afraid of Yang Youwen and Xu Zhen.

Although it is a two-to-one situation in this room.

But apart from this house, the magistrate and the general judge are in charge of the entire Suzhou.

Hearing this, Yang Youwen glanced at Song Xin lightly, and said: "Your Majesty's arrangement, I will definitely have to follow it, and what's more, I heard that the people from the Public Security Department who came here are all of great military exploits." Pawn."

"Even the commander this time is still related to Liang Guogong. If Song Tongzhi thinks that Liang Guogong is no big deal, I naturally have nothing to say."

When Song Xin heard this, he immediately stopped talking.

Suzhou people have a natural sense of fear for this series of military generals and nobles led by the Duke of Liang.

When Zhu Yuanzhang attacked Suzhou, his troops were strong and his horses were strong, but he suffered heavy losses outside the city of Suzhou. After fighting hard for ten months, Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that he vowed to slaughter the city of Suzhou.

Those who beat Suzhou were the famous generals Xu Da and Chang Yuchun.

Chang Yuchun was a famous butcher, when the city of Suzhou was broken, he kept clamoring to massacre the city to vent his anger.

At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, Zheng Kui, Zheng De, a talented man from eastern Zhejiang, moved to Suzhou from Suichang, and took refuge in Zheng Yuanyou, who had entered Zhang Shicheng.

Prior to this, Qingtian Liu Ji, Jinhua Song Lian, and Zheng Kui father and son were all talented people in eastern Zhejiang. They cherished each other and appreciated each other.

Hearing that Zhu Yuanzhang was going to massacre Suzhou, Zheng De immediately wrote to Song Lian and Liu Ji for the safety of the people in the city and his uncle Zheng Yuanyou, asking them to try to dissuade Zhu Yuanzhang from massacring the city.

That's how it managed to prevent Suzhou from being massacred.

However, although there was no massacre of the city, the rampage of the Huaixi generals still caused great damage to the city of Suzhou.

Under Zhu Yuanzhang's indulgence, the generals showed no mercy.

At that time, Lan Yu was under Chang Yuchun's command and left a great reputation in Suzhou City.

Song Xin maintained his last stubbornness, snorted coldly and left.

This is the current state of mind of most people in the Jiangnan area. For Zhu Yuanzhang, they fear and hate but have to join.

Zhu Yuanzhang also knew about these situations.

But as the literati in the Jiangnan area said, there is only one stone in the world, and Jiangnan monopolizes the Eight Dou.

At present, there is a big difference in talents and learning between the north and the south. In the imperial examinations, most of them are from the south. This is something that is difficult to change in a short time.

After Song Xin left, Yang Youwen and Xu Zhen began to communicate more casually.

"This time, His Highness Changsun personally arranged the matter. I think these people in Suzhou City may not even know His Highness Changsun's existence very well."

"Look at it, if you want to fight His Highness the eldest grandson, there is no good end to come. Song Xin, the position of acquaintance, can be regarded as the best."

"He really thought those people in Suzhou could keep him. It's really funny."

Yang Youwen looked at the untouched wine on the table, picked up a glass and drank it, and said with a sneer.

It's just that these words made the judge next to him, Xu Zhen, a little embarrassed.

Because he didn't know who His Royal Highness Changsun was, he couldn't understand what Yang Youwen said at all.

Fortunately, there were only two people in the room, so Xu Zhen said euphemistically, "I'm a lowly official, so I'd like to ask Mr. Yang to give me some pointers."

Yang Youwen was not surprised to hear this. What he said just now was actually testing Xu Zhen to see how well his subordinates had connections in the capital.

Now that the answer is out, even the existence of His Royal Highness the eldest grandson is unknown, obviously the way is not good.

Otherwise, it is impossible not to know the big secret that has alarmed the officials of the capital.

Slightly pondering, Xu Zhen poured wine for Yang Youwen, and after Yang Youwen finished drinking, he said slowly:
"His Royal Highness, the grandson of His Majesty, the eldest son of the Crown Prince, is also His Royal Highness King Yu who became famous in the plague in Henan."

"Ordinary people don't know about His Royal Highness Yu Wang. Xu Tongpan can go to understand the Xiaoling incident in the past few months, and he will understand roughly."

When Xu Zhen heard this, the hand holding the flagon trembled, and he almost didn't drop it.

After a long time, he said in shock: "So, the rumors about Xiaoling are true?"

Yang Youwen smiled lightly and said, "If it's not true, it's about Xiaoling, how can it spread so widely?"

At this time, Xu Zhen's face gradually smiled, and he said: "It seems that there will be a big change in Suzhou City."

Yang Youwen said with a smile: "I'll tell you one more thing, anyway, you will know it soon."

"The commander of the public security department in Suzhou City this time is none other than Liang Guogong's nephew, the commander of Yingwuwei, Lan Tian."

"Master Lan, go slowly, I won't see you off right now."

"Congratulations, big brother, for being promoted. My little brother has heard that the city of Suzhou is very prosperous. It is said that it used to be no worse than the capital."

"Master Blue"

Amid the compliments, Lan Tian got into the carriage and headed back to his house.

Although he is a commanding envoy, Lan Tian's family property is obviously not rich. In the inner city of the capital, it is just a three-entry yard, and his father Lan Rong helped to buy it with funds.

In fact, the personal conditions of most of the Beijing officials are very average. Now it is the Hongwu period, and the Beijing officials are the most incorruptible, and those who are not incorruptible are basically gone.

That is, all the ministers live in the yamen, and most of the Beijing officials live in official houses.

That is to say, the military generals and nobles, relying on their past contributions, have the mansions and mansions bestowed by His Majesty.

These three yards were bought by his father Lan Rong when he got married.

At the gate of the yard, the butler had already been waiting.

Seeing Lan Tian getting off the car, he hurried over.

"Master, you are back. Master and Duke Liang have been waiting at home for a long time."

When Lan Tian heard this, he was a little dazed because of drinking and suddenly sobered up.

Hastily walked towards the yard.

In the lobby, Lan Yu, Duke of Liang, and Lan Rong, his father, were sitting at the head.

Beside him is his wife serving.

After entering the lobby, Lan Tian bowed his head and said, "Greetings to my father, my respects to my uncle."

"You good boy, just after this appointment, you eat and drink outside, and your uncle is so tired that you wait here for half an hour. It's really audacious."

Seeing this, Lan Rong was reprimanded.

"Brother, don't blame me. We came in a hurry, and my nephew didn't know about it. Besides, it's inevitable to have a few drinks with my colleagues after being promoted."

Sapphire persuaded with a smile.

Lan Rong snorted coldly, and remained silent.

Of course he wasn't really angry, it's just that his younger brother waited for so long, afraid that his younger brother might complain about his son.

When these words come out, naturally there is no problem.

Unlike Sapphire, although Lan Rong is the eldest brother, to a large extent, he relies on Sapphire.

It can be said that Sapphire is the backbone of the entire Lan family.

Lan Yu pondered for a while, and said, "I came here suddenly this time, because I have a few things to explain to you, and this is also the meaning of His Royal Highness the eldest grandson."

Hearing His Royal Highness Changsun, Lantian stood straighter.

This was an instinctive reaction after practice in the palace school.
