I'm sure of the prosperous age of Kangxi and Qianlong!

Chapter 270 Ba Paiyao

Badai Yao is the collective name for the Yao people who live in Lianzhou (Lian County), Lianshan, Liannan and other places.

In contrast, there are Guoshan Yao who live in Ruyuan County.

Both Yao people are in Shaozhou, and they are also rebelling against the forest king.

The Bapaiyao people are accustomed to living together and building houses close to the mountains. The houses are stacked on top of each other to form a village called Yaopai by the Han people, so they are called Paiyao.

The eight platoons refer to Youling Pai, Nangang Pai, Hengkeng Pai, Junliao Pai, Huo Shao Pai, Da Zhang Pai, Li Badong Pai and Ma Jian Pai.

Among them, Youling Pai, Nangang Pai and Hengkeng Pai belong to Lianzhou and are to the east, so they are called "Three Pai Pai of Prefecture".

Junliao Pai, Huoshao Pai, Dazhang Pai, Li Badong Pai and Majian Pai are in Lianshan County, in the west, so they are collectively called the "Five County Pai".

The Bapai Yaoyao people call themselves "Bayang Yao".

As for the eight rows and below, there are still 24 punches, so I won’t say more.

Although Ba Pai Yao and Guo Shan Yao were both in Shaozhou and opposed by the afforestation king, the two did not actually work together and had little contact.

In addition to the difference in residence, there is also a dependence relationship with the Han government.

Badai Yao was closer to the Han people, knew how to farm, and also shouldered taxes and labor for the Han government.Even if there is no chieftain, the chieftain is elected and called Yao Lao.

The Guoshan Yao are even more primitive. The main reason is that the local Yao people couldn't stand the government's exploitation, so they hid in the mountains to farm and live, almost like savages.

The Yao people have many disparaging names, and most of them describe these Yao people who have crossed mountains.

Speaking of which, the name Yao (Wang Zi Yao) did not really appear until later generations after the founding of the People's Republic of China. It was a name specially given by a certain red regime to show respect for the Yao people.

Zhu Yijiong opened the memorial jointly delivered by Jiang Chengzhang, governor of Southern Jiangxi, and Lu Feng, commander of the Eighth Army.

Lu Feng's bet was right. He conquered eastern Hunan and captured the southern gate of Hunan, which was a great achievement.

It is definitely impossible for Zhu Yijiong to really punish him. At most, he will just show it and stop it.

As for Zeng Jing, Zhang Xi and other literati who got into trouble when their minds got hot, Zhu Yijiong had to summon him once.

Of course, Zhu Yijiong did not know the victims of this literary prison. He only made a routine meeting once and then placed these people in the Propaganda Department to build public opinion.

Although these people also made Zhu Yijiong quite speechless, they were not very capable, and they also caused Chenzhou to be in chaos.

But at any rate, the starting point was indeed good, and it did create a fighter opportunity, allowing the Ming army to successfully open up the bridgehead to invade Hunan.

Moreover, these rebellious scholars are academically extreme and have rebelled. How can they not be extreme?
It's just right to be placed in the Propaganda Department, but it's not appropriate to be placed as a local official.

"Um……"

Zhu Yijiong flipped through the memorial in his hand, his expression gradually becoming thoughtful.

The original text of the memorial: Badai Yao of Lianzhou was in contact with Guiyang (prefecture) and planned to send an envoy to pay homage to the Ming Emperor. He also euphemistically expressed Badai Yao's idea of ​​getting married to Emperor Zhu.

Cabinet vote proposal: It is recommended that the emperor consider it carefully, and also outlines the benefits of having a Yao concubine, and even if the emperor refuses, he should not be too straightforward.

Secretariat: Second the motion.

Obviously, these courtiers did not express any discrimination against Badai Yao.

No, it should be said that there must be discrimination, which was common in ancient times.

But discrimination is discrimination. These courtiers are no longer children. They must consider politics first in everything they do.

As long as one Yao concubine is accepted, Bapai Yao can return to his heart. Considering the benefits and costs, it is absolutely guaranteed to make a profit without losing any money.

Anyway, the emperor has more than one concubine for political purposes.

In the first few months of spring, the beautiful women from rich families selected from each province have already stood out, and there are only two or three in each province.

Counting the empress, there are now more than a dozen people in the emperor's harem. Except for the empress, they are all politically aligned.It’s just that I’m marrying one more person now, so what does it matter?
Furthermore, it was not Emperor Zhu’s exclusive right to marry a young woman from the minority as his concubine or even his queen.The biological mother of Zhu Youtang, the famous Hongzhi Zhongxing emperor in the former Ming Dynasty, seems to be a Yao girl according to records.

Some clues about this can be seen from the portraits. Before Hongzhi, the emperor basically looked like a bearded warrior, but by Hongzhi he suddenly became thinner and fairer.

Moreover, it is still the Qing Dynasty (era), and the Qing emperor often has Mongolian concubines to maintain the political alliance between Manchu and Mongolia.

The famous Xiaozhuang Dayu'er is a Mongolian, and she still looks like an aunt in her portrait.

It is rumored that Dorgon and Huang Taiji were jealous of Da Yuer. It may be true, but it is definitely not because of Da Yuer's "beauty".

The "Fragrant Concubine" of Princess Huanzhu was also a Mongolian woman, and the real ending was just to have enough food and clothing. The emperor often rewarded her, but Qianlong rarely went to her...because she didn't look good.

Zhu Yijiong thought carefully for a moment, then wrote and replied: "Yes."

If you accept a concubine, just accept a concubine!

Anyway, his concubines are not lacking in this one. Now there is only one more minority, and there will be no problem of language barrier.

Ba Pai Yao are familiar with Yao, many of them can speak Chinese, and those Yao elders of Ba Pai Yao are not fools.

Since there was a political alliance, how could they find a Yao girl who couldn't speak Chinese to be Emperor Zhu's concubine?

After dealing with the issue of Badai Yao, Jiang Chengzhang also mentioned in the memorial the situation of contact with other Shaomin rebels. Of course, it was not ideal.

Most of these minority rebels hold the belief that as long as the officers and soldiers don't come, they can peacefully become the emperor of the country.When the officers and soldiers come, if you can beat them, you can continue to be the Tu Tu Emperor. If you can't beat them, you can be the Chieftain again!
It would be very difficult to take down these minority rebels without any bloodshed unless the Ming Dynasty first defeated a leader to establish his authority.

Even Badai Yao had no choice but to rebel against King Lin, but he was surrounded by King Lin from all directions, and the only ones who could contact him were the Ming army.

From this we can see what the hell King Lin is like under his rule.The fundamental reason is that Lin Jun only cares about military affairs and ignores civil affairs.

Although Lin Jun replaced almost all local officials, he completely ignored or ignored the local staff system.

The consequence of this is that the new local officials are either the same as the original local officials.

Otherwise, even if they are honest officials, they will be quickly corrupted by the local official system in a short time.Maybe there really are those who are young and ambitious and will not be easily corrupted.

But there are many ways to deal with these people, those who are old and experienced. As long as the staff system is slightly uncooperative, these people will not be able to accomplish anything practical.

Oh, Bapai Yao wanted to surrender to the Ming court, but Guoshan Yao did not. These Guoshan Yao had been nesting in the mountains all year round, cultivating slash and burn farming. Even the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty had no good way to deal with them. They could only wait until Guangdong was captured, and then Digested slowly.

"..." Zhu Yijiong looked at the memorial with deep eyes.

King Lin has been wandering around in Guangdong and Guangxi for a long time, and it’s time to find time to close the net.

In addition to the south, some rebel leaders in Henan and Shandong in the north are also trying to contact the Ming army.

These powerful rebels planned to use the Ming army on the front line to truly ask Emperor Zhu of Nanjing for a title. In exchange, they were willing to serve the Ming court as Zhengshuo, and even obey orders, but not Xuan.

This is normal. Even if you are ambitious, you must first find a backer when you are not strong.

Lao Zhu also regarded King Xiao Ming as Zhengshuo.

Of course, Zhu Yijiong will definitely not be that little Ming Wang.

The military reports sent back by Yang Gong and Yu Kecheng both stated that these rebels were either useless or too selfish and should be treated with caution.

Treat it with caution, it is usable.

The Ming Dynasty had previously watched the remnants of the Bagua Sect in Huaibei sit and watch their demise. In addition to the fact that these people went too far and caused great harm to the place, there was also the reason why the remnants themselves did not listen to orders.

After all, this is a group of religious lunatics, the kind of cult lunatics that even Hou Tang can't restrain.

In contrast, the current local rebels in Henan and Shandong are not completely incapable of being used together. At least the two sides can still make sense.

　According to the custom of Bapaiyao, unmarried men are called Manengge (young man) and unmarried women are called Shayaomei (little girl).
