Chapter 292: The vassal kings are all locked into Beijing
King Zhu Huakui of Chu was pulled out. He had no time to make up his head, so he tilted his body and looked at Zhu Youxiao weakly.
"Take him down, escort him to Beijing, hand him over to the Ministry of Justice, and follow the regulations." Zhu Youxiao asked again after saying that, "Where is Miss Wei."
"It has been handed over to Qin Botong," Fu Dahai replied, Zhu Youxiao nodded after hearing this, and said, "This time, the rebellion of King Zhu Huakui of Chu, most officials in Huguang were coerced. Except for those who were extremely guilty, the rest can be released to restore local order. At the same time, the family of King Zhu Huakui of Chu was escorted to Beijing, and the department arranged his housing and allowed him to make a living by himself. The older males could be sent to the Ordnance Department or the affiliated training institutions of the Royal Industrial Company for training to promote their living skills; in addition, young people, both men and women, were ordered to enroll in school, and the Ministry of Rites selected a site to establish a Royal Academy, and invited famous teachers and professors. They could also go to the Royal Academy of Engineering and the Royal Academy of Sciences to further their studies. Of course, they could also participate in the Imperial Guards, but they must undergo strict political review."
Zhu Youxiao's purpose is very simple. He wanted to lock these royal relatives and nobles into the capital and take the lead in the court to give them a living skill, so that they can create wealth for society when they reduce their social resources.
Not only the King of Chu, Zhu Huakui, but also the princes from all counties to the generals of the auxiliary state, they had to be locked into the capital. At the same time, the other vassal kings involved in the case of King of Chu, Zhu Huakui's rebellion were also locked into the capital.
But taking these vassal kings into the capital does not mean keeping them as pets. It is no different from having these vassal kings in fiefdoms. Instead, the court needs to train them and give them the opportunity to create wealth with their hands.
However, these training and employment issues cost nothing compared to the land reclaimed from these vassal kings. Zhu Youxiao did not mind giving them such high salary, but he did not allow these vassal kings to plunder the resources of the Ming Dynasty and thus destroy the ruling foundation of the Ming Dynasty.
Let these vassal kings use their generous salary, sufficient time and unique talents to choose the direction they study according to their own interests, and become a master on one hand, and thus make contributions to society. Even if the treasury expenditure is spent, it is worth it, and even a big profit will be made.
Zhu Youxiao temporarily turned the Chu Palace into an open palace. This time he came to Huguang not only because of the rebellion of King Zhu Huakui and Wei Min'er, but also to reshape the pragmatic atmosphere of the officialdom. So he decided that when he came to Huguang, he had to mention Zhang Juzheng's affairs during the Wanli period and find ways to restore Zhang Juzheng's honor, not only Zhang Juzheng, but also Qi Jiguang.
When Zhu Youxiao learned that Zuo Liangyu was captured and that Zuo Liangyu's more than 100 elite cavalry were wiped out by a Qianhu Qi Changguo named Yiyang Institute, Wang Chengen hurriedly came to tactfully and whispered: "Your Majesty, this Qi Changguo is the son of Qi Shaobao back then. Because Zhang Ge Lao was later defeated, the man named Qi Changguo was also demoted to this Yiyang Institute as a Qianhu, but he did not expect that he could capture Zuo Liangyu with hundreds of people."
Zhu Youxiao was naturally a little excited when he heard that Wang Chengen said that he was Qi Jiguang's son. He was now in need of a descendant of a hero, fortunately, in front of all officials, formally proposed to make great contributions to the Ming Dynasty and re-elected the title. Now Qi Changguo is just around the corner.
Zhu Youxiao proposed to personally meet Qi Changguo on the grounds that Qi Changguo had made great contributions to capturing Zuo Liangyu alive.
...
Wei Min'er, her little niece and her personal maids were being detained on a warship by Qin Botong with heavy troops. Wei Min'er hated the feeling of being locked up like a prisoner, so she glared at the imperial guards outside and shouted: "How do you want to let me go?"
Wei Min'er was still wearing red makeup at this time, with the rouge on her face not leaving, adding a little pure beauty, but her anger was not gone. She knew that all this was arranged by His Majesty the Emperor named Zhu Youxiao, but because of this, she expressed her emotions more unscrupulously without any fear of the majestic imperial guards in front of her.
"Miss Wei, don't be in a hurry. Although Your Majesty made a clear decree, saying that you followed you to Wuchang Mansion because you were hostage by Zhu Huakui. For safety plans, after we rescue you, we can only let you stay on the boat temporarily to prevent accidents. As for when you can let you leave here, it depends on your Majesty's intention." After Qin Botong said that, he rubbed his temples with a headache. He was the most difficult to serve such a person. After expressing his meaning, he immediately withdrew his ship warehouse.
Wei Min'er groaned, and she was also a little panicked, afraid that after seeing Zhu Youxiao, she would not know how to deal with it. Will this emperor who had never been able to tolerate sand in his eyes choose to come to the Chu Palace with the King of Chu because she betrayed him and now she almost married the King of Chu and was hated by Zhu Youxiao, which would cause herself to be punished or even die.
But at the same time, because Zhu Youxiao's reluctance to come, Wei Min'er could not confirm the true thoughts of the emperor, His Majesty Zhu Youxiao, which made her feel even more irritable and anxious.
Therefore, Wei Min'er hysterically smashed the porcelain in the house on the wooden boards, and even smashed the window glass to attract the attention of the Imperial Guards and eventually Zhu Youxiao's attention.
"Report to the commander that Miss Wei was smashing things again, and even crazily tearing the bed sheets and pillowcases. Do you think she was crazy?"
A soldier who was in debt to observe Wei Min'er's movement ran to report this incident to Qin Botong. Qin Botong immediately scolded his mother and shouted: "Isn't it just a few sheets? What's the point? The porcelain is smashed and the glass is smashed. What else can I do? Hold on! Let's talk about it when you come down!"
The soldier had to retreat in disappointment, but at this moment, he happened to meet Zhu Youxiao and couldn't help but ask: "How did you come in? Who brought you in?"
Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but smile and said, "You Commander Qin asked me to come."
"Commander Qin, can you call Commander Qin? Do you know the rules?" Before the soldier finished speaking, Zhu Youxiao slapped him.
With a bang, before the soldier could react, Zhu Youxiao pointed at the soldier and scolded: "I let you know what the rules are."
Seeing this, Qin Botong and Wei Min'er knew that it was Zhu Youxiao who came, but Wei Min'er calmed down because of this, but she was still confused and didn't know where to put her hands and started from scratch.
Wei Min'er was very worried that the emperor named Zhu Youxiao would hate her for refusing to become his woman because of her promise to the King of Chu, Zhu Huakui, that time, she promised a vassal king, and that she was a vassal king who was going to rebel.
However, Zhu Youxiao did not come in to see Wei Min'er. After slapped the soldier, he just glanced at the direction where Wei Min'er was and walked in the other direction.
