Chapter 131: Electric Lights

After the "Lease Contract" was passed to Seoul, Li Yu was first shocked and angry, and then became a little lucky under the persuasion of his ministers.

"Now the Ming Dynasty no longer attacks our dynasty, but wants to destroy the Later Jin Dynasty, which is a good thing for us."

"This is just a lease, not a cede land. The people there can continue to live. The general of the Ming Dynasty was still relatively benevolent and righteous."

"Mr. Cui's mission this time not only allowed the Ming Dynasty to eliminate the idea of ​​conquering our dynasty, but also reduced the land area on the contract from the entire Ping'an Road to only the Ping'an Road West Road, which was a great contribution."

Under the remarks of these ministers, Li Nei and Cui Mingji both made contributions, avoiding the feud with the Supreme Kingdom of the Celestial Empire, and maintaining the integrity of the nominal land. This is very difficult.

Therefore, the contract was recognized by Li Jue, stamped with the seal, and then Cui Mingji was asked to serve as an envoy again. One of the duties was to send the contract and get one back after the Emperor of Ming Dynasty stamped the seal.

In addition, it is to help divide the area and scope of the leased land in the past.

Then, the Li Dynasty announced the matter, especially notifying the people around Ping'an Road to cooperate with the requirements of the Ming army.

At the same time, in Ping'an Road West, people in the entire region were quickly registered and booked using special ID papers made by Huangxia Printing Factory and special hand-cranked printing machines.

Among them, Han people can directly obtain household registration documents symbolizing the people of the Ming Dynasty, while people from the Li Dynasty will be granted a "license" for bilingual production of Chinese and Korean characters.

Many people from the Li Dynasty hoped to obtain the identity of the people of the Ming Dynasty, so Mao Wenlong announced that as long as he joined the army for one year, or settled in this area for three years, he could change from a "license" application to a "household registration certificate". Of course, there is a simple test of language communication.

The arrangements for this matter were quickly sent to the capital, and the Denglai Navy recaptured Jinzhou and Fuzhou. The two incidents of Cao Wenzhao and Mao Yuanyi jointly destroyed the Korqin tribe were also spread here.

Although the time of action was different, the news that it was finally delivered to the capital was almost the same day.

At the court meeting the next day, Wang Chengen read out three news, and the ministers in the court, look at me, look at you, and don’t know what to say.

The military supplies of food and grass were handled by the Military Corps, and the generals outside had the privileges granted by the emperor and could act cheaply.

In this way, whether it is marching or deployment, or even the final result of the other party, they are ignorant of this.

It was silent, the court held three battles in the north at the same time, and the key was that they all won.

This further highlights that these civil officials have no effect on military affairs.

"Our court has won consecutive victories and the recovery of Liaodong is just around the corner. I am congratulating you for Your Majesty!" Qian Jiazheng was speaking.

This passionate young man has been to inspect the royal family last time, but he didn't return to Beijing a few days ago.

When I went out, I was no longer so sharp, but I still had a kind of high spirit that was not in the old ministers of the court.

As we all know, this Ming Dynasty's first "God of War" who destroyed the eunuch party first and then revolutionized the royal family, was quite strange to say such flattering words from him.

However, if someone takes the lead in this kind of thing, there are many people who follow and echo. For a moment, the court was full of congratulations from ministers.

Zhu Youjian said happily when he heard this, "Okay! Cao Wenzhao and others also made great contributions and passed on my decree. Mao Wenlong was promoted to Marquis of Dongjiang and established the Ping'an Governor's Office in the western road of Ping'an Road. Mao Wenlong was the first governor to take charge of land renting government affairs and military affairs.

Yuan Ke was appointed as the Marquis of Bohai, the Admiral of the Bohai Navy, and was in charge of the military affairs of Dengzhou, Laizhou, Jinzhou and Fuzhou, as well as the military affairs of the Bohai Coastal Navy.

Cao Wen ordered the promotion of the Marquis of Ping Liao, and from now on, he was in charge of military affairs in western Liao and Liaodong.

The Chahar General Secretary was established in the areas where the former Chaharxi and the Korchin tribe were located, and Sun Chengzong was transferred to serve as the governor.

Mao Yuanyi was appointed as the Marquis of Jingyuan, a first-class general of Wuwei, and continued to fight against other tribes of Jurchens who depended on the Later Jin Dynasty."

A reward is generous.

All four people were granted the title of marquis. What a great favor. I was granted the title of marquis so early, and the land of Liaodong has not been taken back yet. If anyone takes back, wouldn’t it be impossible to enfeoff?!

Xu Guangqi hesitated for a moment and came forward to persuade him, "Your Majesty, the generals have made outstanding achievements, but have they been awarded a marquis once they are granted excessive rewards? What I see, I will give you land, mansions, and a silver salary. No matter how great the merits are, it is not impossible to be granted a marquis again."

"I will not be stingy with titles. Military generals can be granted titles by expanding territory, civil officials can be granted titles by peace of mind, and civil officials can be granted titles by peace of mind. Anyone has a chance.

With the merits of these three, although the award of marquis is a bit favorable, it will not insult such titles. I believe that they can continue to make achievements and make themselves worthy of the rewards I give them.

As long as you have enough achievements, a marquis can be granted, a duke can be granted, and I will not hesitate at all!" Zhu Youjian said.

For a moment, the ministers had more thoughts in their hearts.

Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there have been no other kings of different surnames except those who fought with Taizu.

Now the emperor actually wants to reward the title of king, and not only target the military generals, but also has the opportunity for civil officials.

This is a good opportunity to glorify the ancestors, who doesn’t want to take a try?

The court meeting ended soon. Just as everyone was about to leave, a small eunuch suddenly came over and handed Wang Chengen a few words. Wang Chengen presented the words to Zhu Youjian.

Zhu Youjian suddenly looked happy when he heard this, and stood up and said, "My dear friends, everyone will go to the East Street of the Outer Ring Road tonight. I invite you to see the first light of the Ming Dynasty!"

These words made the ministers confused, not knowing what the emperor was saying.

How can electricity form words with lamps? Can electricity still be used as lamps?

But the emperor invited them, of course, they guarded the East Street of the Outer Ring Road early that night.

The so-called outer ring is the area formed by residences established outside the capital. It divides the inner and outer rings with the capital city wall as the boundary.

Most of the outer rings are new things like factories, commercial streets, new schools, etc. The architectural style is mainly simple and harmonious, which is closer to modernization.

Dongcheng District of the outer ring road is a famous "school district house" and is the place where the Jingshi University Hall is located.

At this time, people were standing in the square in Dongcheng District.

Everyone was quietly waiting for someone on the platform to do something.

On October 28, the first year of Chongzhen, this is a time worth remembering.

It is not because the court received three good news from the north on this day, but because on this day someone will bring light to the Ming Dynasty.

Song Shiming felt very nervous. Although he had already verified it, he still felt a little stressed when he came to watch in front of so many people, especially the emperor and the ministers in the court.

Until he saw Xiao Sheng smiling at him in the crowd, he calmed down and began to shake a machine.
