Chapter 104

"Your Majesty, Baihu Xuanwu is back, please meet him outside the palace."

One day later, when Zhu Youjian was about to go to the morning court, Ah Qing reported to him that when he heard that Baihu Xuanwu had returned, Zhu Youjian immediately gave up the idea of ​​going to the morning court.

"So soon, let them see me."

Ah Qing turned and went out, and soon Baihu and Xuanwu walked into the Qianqing Palace:
"Baihu Xuanwu pays homage to the emperor, and wishes my emperor long live long live."

Zhu Youjian waved his hands and said with a smile:
"Excuse me, how did Wu Sangui and Duoduo deal with it?"

"Report to the emperor, Wu Sangui Duoduo has been escorted to the capital by us, and even their family members have been escorted to the capital together. Dudu Qi wants the emperor to handle it personally."

Zhu Youjian was overjoyed when he heard that, Qi Jiguang and Li Cunxiao were so thoughtful, they even sent their families back to the capital.

"Okay, it's done well. Immediately cut off the limbs of Wu Sangui and Duoduo, put them in jars, and send them to the crowded vegetable market every day for people to visit. Be careful not to let them die."

"obey"

"Also, send Wu Sangui and the families of the rebels to several Yichun towers in the capital to increase publicity so that wealthy businessmen can go there for entertainment."

"obey"

Most of Wu Sangui's family members are in the capital, but how could there be no other women by his side? This is a good thing, all of them were sent to Yichun Tower.

Since the opening of Yichunlou, it can be said that Rijin Qianjin is not a dream, and Chen Yuanyuan is now the top brand of the largest Yichunlou.

The family members of the officials whose houses were confiscated in Nanjing also work in Yichunlou. They would never have thought that their families would pay back their debts after they died because of corruption and bribery during their lifetime.

Zhu Youjian's approach not only increased the revenue of the national treasury, but also warned those important officials in the court to see the fate of treachery, corruption and perversion of the law.

Everyone knows that these places are state-owned enterprises, so they take money honestly when they consume, otherwise Jinyiwei will greet them.

As for whether there is any business, there is no need to worry about it. The ladies and wives of high-ranking officials and dignitaries, who can look bad, and they all know some piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so the business of any Yichun building is booming.

Notices were pasted up in everyone's alleys, and soon everyone knew that Daming was going to deal with Prince Yu and the traitor Wu Sangui, and rushed to Caishikou to watch the excitement.

In this way, Wu Sangui and Duoduo were chopped off their limbs and put them into jars under the watchful eyes of everyone.

The jars are filled with antiseptic potions, so they won't be able to die for the time being.

At the court meeting, the civil and military ministers heard about Wu Sangui and Duoduo.

Those ministers with ghosts started to tremble at this moment, for fear of accidentally stepping into Wu Sangui's footsteps.

Everyone waited for more than two or one hours before the emperor came late. Zhu Youjian sat upright on the dragon chair and glanced at the officials.

The ministers stepped forward to salute one after another:

"See the emperor, I wish my emperor long live long live long live long live."

"All my lovers are free of courtesy."

"Thank you!"

In the Ming Dynasty, when there were no major events, or when there was not a big court meeting, the officials did not need to kneel down to worship, but they had to kneel down when receiving imperial titles and receiving imperial edicts.

Unlike the Qing Dynasty, the Han people were all slaves, not to mention seeing officials, even when they saw some Dong captives, the Han people would kneel down and call themselves slaves.

And these are Han Chinese with status, ordinary people, not even qualified to be slaves.

After all the officials were flattened, Zhu Youjian said:
"Wu Sangui's matter, all the lovers know, there is nothing I can do about it, the country is in crisis, I don't take responsibility for the country, and I betray the country and surrender to the enemy."

"You say, am I doing too much?"

When Zhu Youjian said this, which minister dared to say too much, unless he also wanted to enter the jar, and their wives and concubines also wanted to work in Yichun Tower.

The officials were frightened by Zhu Youjian and saluted again:

"My emperor is holy, that is what the traitor deserves, as it should be."

Zhu Youjian is a little bit satisfied:

"Well, you are all the pillars of my great Ming Dynasty, and you will definitely not be like Wu Sangui, but today I will put the ugly words up front. If someone dares to try their own methods, they must think clearly about the consequences."

"My emperor is holy, I dare not!"

All the ministers were distracted by Zhu Youjian. Since the capital wiped out the bandits, they found that the emperor had become a completely different person.

In the past, when the emperor wanted to do something, they all opposed it, and Chongzhen would take it back.

But now, as long as you dare to oppose the emperor's decision, you will be killed in the lightest case, or ransacked and exterminated in the serious case.

Of course, this is all taken for granted by them. Zhu Youjian will not punish ministers who have not made major mistakes easily.

"Shangshu Hubu, what I ordered you to do, how are you doing now?"

Ni Yuanlu, Minister of the Household Department, hastily stepped forward to salute:

"Your Majesty, according to your oral instructions, I have printed several manuscripts overnight and sent them to the cabinet for review. After the cabinet approves them, they will be officially implemented."

"Well, send it to me first, so that everyone can have a mental preparation."

"According to the purpose"

Hubu Shangshu with a sullen face, issued a notice of the printed manuscript to the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, asking them to visit first.

Ni Yuanlu felt that a storm was coming.

What kind of manuscript announcement would make Ni Yuanlu, Minister of the Ministry of household affairs, so worried, but it is actually a normal thing now.

But in that era, it was simply a big cake for all the officials, the gentry, the rich, the merchants and the nobles. This involved a lot, and most of the officials in the DPRK and China were involved.

The announcement is as follows:

Ming Dynasty will officially abolish all inheritance systems, all, remember all.

For example, in the Ming Dynasty, soldiers were employed for life, including border guards.

The head of a family is a soldier, and it is destined that their family will always be a soldier, grandfather, father, and continue from generation to generation.

Military families are in good health, but those who are old, weak, sick and disabled, how do you let them fight, this will cause a rapid decline in combat effectiveness, and give officials the opportunity to eat empty wages.

The same is true for artisans, farmers, absenteeism, etc., one generation after another. It should be said that the system was good at the beginning, which greatly stimulated the development of various industries in Daming.

However, this has been the case from generation to generation, coupled with the fact that officials are corrupt and cannot distribute the money they deserve on time and in full, making many people unwilling to do their own business.

You just dawdle all day, no matter how hard you work, you still get so much. If you don’t work hard, you will get so much. Over time, it will cause serious consequences, such as passive sabotage.

Think about Daming's firearms, why there are so many firearms that fail to ignite, those that explode after two shots, and those that do not explode when the flowering bullets are fired, all have something to do with this.

There are many more, not as good as farm tools for farmers, industrial machinery, tools for absenteeism, and so on.

Zhu Youjian's suggestion is to abolish the tenure system altogether, and let everyone do some work that they like and are interested in doing. This will definitely have a better effect.

Regarding the issue of enlisting in the army, no matter whether your family is a military family or not, as long as you have the ambition to serve the country and are strong and healthy, you can enlist in the army.

The salary of each industry is different, some are high and some are low, they choose voluntarily, and the imperial court will not interfere with their free employment.

Although many ministers felt inappropriate about this question, they could still reluctantly accept it because of the majesty of the emperor.

But the following one made these ministers start to be dumbfounded.
