Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 297
Regarding the dilapidated Forbidden City in Yingtian Mansion, Zhu Kezang regained his mood a little bit. In order to vent his anger, he first found the groveling Niu Gulu Watai and changed his name to a Han surname.

According to history, after the Qing Dynasty was overthrown, Niu Colu meant wolf in Manchu, so the surname was generally changed to Lang. Zhu Kezang respected history, but it was not this good-looking Lang, but the "roach" of cockroaches.

Then, how to deal with these bannermen who surrendered became a big problem.

Zhu Kezang thought and thought, and suddenly remembered that there was no Ming Dynasty's garrison in Xiaotian.

Relying on the support of Daming, the Satsuma clan barely gained a firm foothold in Kyushu Island, but they were also unable to advance eastward.

It happened to be a good idea to send these [-] Banner soldiers and the packers all over the city to Kyushu Island, Japan, as reinforcements for the Ming Dynasty.

Worried that they are dishonest in Kyushu?

All the family members were forced to go to Luzon. If they didn't help Daming to work hard, all the wives and children would be sent to feed the sharks.

Since then, the governor of the Ming Dynasty in Japan, Huwatai, has been freshly released.

On the second day after conquering Yingtian City, there was already news in the city that the son of the new Da Ming would formally pay homage to the mausoleum and offer incense to the Taizu.

If the people in Yingtian City are willing, they can also offer incense with the emperor.

This is inappropriate in terms of rules, but in the new Ming Dynasty, Zhu Kezang has always said what he says, and now there are no civil servants around Zhu Kezang, so this order can be passed on.

On the day of Yeling, most of the people who came here were scholars, and many of them were old people from the Ming Dynasty who cherished their homeland.

The new emperor's worship of the Taizu is an announcement of the great success of the restoration of the Ming Dynasty, and it is also a comfort to the scattered people and hearts in the south of the Yangtze River.

A group of soldiers from the Great Ming Guards stationed at Xiamafang, which was regarded as a security check, but their greatest role was actually another matter.

"You can't go in." The unselfish soldier stopped a middle-aged scholar.

The scholar was stunned, perhaps because he knew that the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty Guards had strict military discipline and did nothing wrong with the common people, so he was a little bit more courageous and asked, "Why? Didn't the Son of Heaven invite the people of Yingtianfu to worship Emperor Taizu together? I am Yingtianfu People, why can't I go in?"

The soldier glanced at him, could not help but sarcasm, and said, "You drag a tartar's money rat tail, but you want to enter Xiaoling Mausoleum to worship the Taizu, is there something wrong with your brain?"

When the scholar heard this, his face turned red, and he tried to defend himself: "It's just too late to cut it off. I can't find a barber at the moment, so why don't you accommodate me first..."

This scholar talked a lot, and he would say from time to time: Is the braid of a scholar a braid?
The soldiers of the Guards were too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so they took out a pair of scissors, gestured, and said, "With braids, you can't enter Xiaoling. Ming Zimin, those with braids are barbarians, it’s as simple as that. You can go in if you want, let me cut off the money rat tail on the back of your head.”

But the middle-aged scholar faltered and became extremely coy.

A bald-headed young man on the side directly pierced his thoughts: "Dear man, don't you think that my master of the Ming Dynasty will be defeated by the Qing army, and the Qing army will invade Nanjing again in the future, and you still wear braids?" , can you be an obedient citizen of the Tartar Qing?"

"This... of course it's not, it's just that it's degrading to cut your hair in public..."

The young man couldn't help scolding angrily: "On the land of Ming Dynasty, it is really insulting to the gentlemen to drag a money rat tail. If you don't want to cut it, I will cut it for you!"

As he said this, the young man rushed forward to grab the money rat tail of the middle-aged scholar.

There was a lot of fighting here, and the middle-aged scholar finally left in anger and stopped worshiping the Taizu. The people around him laughed at him endlessly.

The crowd has basically entered the Xiaoling Mausoleum, and the ceremony is about to begin.

Many people were delighted to be able to restore the clothes worn by E Guanbo, but Zhu Kezang, who was standing on the high platform, still wore a neat military uniform and looked equally heroic.

Not long after, a group of people of certain ages and even disabilities walked onto the stage.

Zhu Kezang actually bowed deeply towards these people.Those people were obviously taken aback, and quickly knelt down to return the salute, but were stopped by the soldiers who brought them up, and only asked to bow in return.

"Who are those people? Why did the emperor salute them?"

"Xiaoling Guard, the Ming Dynasty is broken, and these people are still guarding Xiaoling. The emperor is paying respects to the people who are still loyal to their duties when the country is broken." The insider said popular science.

After the fall of the old Ming Dynasty, the establishment of the Xiaoling Guard has been cancelled, and some of the former "Xiaoling Guards" still stayed in their jobs and became ordinary people, continuing to silently guard Xiaoling for Zhu Yuanzhang from generation to generation.

The entire process of worship is very simple, and it does not fully conform to the so-called etiquette system.

Zhu Kezang didn't even read out any sacrificial oration this time, nor did he deliver any inspiring speeches to the common people and scholars in the south of the Yangtze River.

During the whole process, Zhu Kezang kept a sullen face, doing what he should do step by step.

In fact, the activity of Yeling itself, as well as various setting details, are enough to explain the problem.

From the fall of Yingtian Mansion in 1645 until today when the Ming Guards entered the city, the new emperor’s worship of the Taizu was a declaration that the Ming Dynasty had not perished and that the Ming Dynasty had returned!
The appearance and image of the Ming Dynasty guards guarding the Xiaoling Mausoleum during the Yeling event left a deep impression on people. Simply put, the people in the south of the Yangtze River have never seen such an army.

They no longer wore the mandarin duck war jackets of the Ming Dynasty, and they were even more different from the uniforms of the Qing army.

This time they didn't wear armor, but wore extremely handsome German military uniforms that looked more convenient to move about.

It stands to reason that this may be something that military strategists of all ages have been pursuing, but it is very difficult to achieve.

Orders and prohibitions are uniform, and thousands of people are the same. This kind of army, even the common people who don't understand military at all, can see their strength.

The Guards didn't have any cold weapons like the knife contradiction card at all, but were equipped with all firecrackers, except for the bayonet pinned to the waist, which looked like a sword.

With such a powerful army, the people present breathed a sigh of relief: the dog tartar will never come back!
Zhu Kezang finished participating in this activity, waved to the people, didn't say much, and left Xiaoling on foot surrounded by a group of Jinyi guards.

The soldiers in charge of security also coordinated the people who participated in the event to leave Xiaoling one after another. Some people were a little bit unsatisfied. They also had some conversations with the guards and learned a lot about the new Ming Dynasty.

Even after the event was over, many scholars were unwilling to leave easily.

After all, under the rule of the Qing Dynasty, the right to form associations for scholars in the south of the Yangtze River was forbidden. Everyone was cautious, for fear of causing trouble.

Now that Master Daming has finally arrived, many people are full of hope and want to make a career under the new rule of Daming.
