Dominate Marvel

In the original history, when Jiashen was in national calamity and the emperor died at Meishan, hundreds of people, such as Ni Yuanlu and others, died for the Ming Dynasty.

Some died in battle, hung from a beam, threw themselves into a well, or set themselves on fire. They were often buried with the whole family, and their behavior was lamentable.

Their brilliance is in sharp contrast to the 'itchy scalp' and 'the water is too cold'.

Many people may not know them, but their deeds should be remembered and their names should remain in history.

But this time, Ying Yi took the capital without any injuries, detained the emperor, civil and military officials, and did not harm the people or kill the clan without permission. Faced with this situation, the mourners still went to mourn Daming, but after all, they did not go together with their families. It's a good thing after all.

Tian Hongyu was ordered to appease the ministers, and he did not distinguish between good and bad, but only conveyed Ying Yi's meaning. But in the following days, many civil and military officials still committed suicide at home.

At this point, Ying Yi could only sigh.

He couldn't tie them all up, that would be an insult to them. I also thought that if such a person could be used by me, that would be a good thing, right?

But in the end there was no action.

They only ordered him to be buried in a coffin and recorded in the record. The news has not been blocked. There are many people in the capital and officials who know about it.

By the time Zheng Yunzhi, Sun Xiucai and more than a hundred people arrived in the capital, the number of people who had left letters to be buried ranged from senior officials of the six ministerial levels such as Ni Yuanlu to ordinary petty officials and patrol officers, and the number had reached more than 300.

With the end of a Huanghuang dynasty, they followed.

Standing on the steps outside Qianqing Palace, Ying Yi clasped his hands and sighed.

Zheng Yunzhi and Sun Xiucai have arrived.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

The two led more than a hundred officials up the stairs, and when they came to the front, they all bowed and bowed.

Ying Yi flicked his sleeves and said, "No need to be polite, just come in and talk."

Turn around and go to the temple.

Zheng Yunzhi and Sun Xiucai followed suit and slowly walked into the magnificent Qianqing Palace, their hearts surging for a moment.

A year ago, one of them was a respected figure in the county, and the other was just a down-and-out scholar. Who could have expected that today they would ascend to the Emperor's Hall?

The north is established, Chongzhen abdicates, the Ming Dynasty has been declared legally destroyed, and the new dynasty will rise like the scorching sun between the sea and the sky. As ministers of Conglong, their future can be foreseen.

The majestic man in front of him will be the patriarch of this nation, ruling China, dominating the world, and commanding authority from all directions. And they are right here, at the top of this tower, the ones who call the shots!

The excitement in my heart is beyond words.

Zheng Yunzhi, Sun Xiucai, Liu Yiqian, and Zhao Huaizhun were all listed in the palace, their faces red and their spirits high.

Behind them, more than a hundred officials from various departments were also unable to control themselves.

Ying Yi climbed up the steps, turned around and sat down on the stool beside the dragon chair, saying, "Everyone, sit down."

"Thank you, sir."

After everyone was seated, Ying Yi smiled and said: "How is Henan now? Is there any new news about the war situation in the south?"

Zheng Yunzhi bowed slightly and said: "Your Majesty is concerned, everything is fine in Henan. After Your Majesty Junzhi arrived, Wei Chen and Mr. Sun quickly made arrangements to leave Zheng Huai and Jiang Xi in charge of Henan, and then hurried to the capital."

Sun Xiucai said: "The war in the south is going well. The Huguang War has come to an end. Qin Liangyu has been defeated and has returned to Sichuan. The war in Zhongdu will also be settled. Many of the Ming court soldiers and horses in the south of the Yangtze River and along the canal have been killed, and Zhongdu will be taken in the near future. "

In Fengyang, the central capital, led by the school captain Zhou Li, they surrounded the points for reinforcements. The Ming army came and destroyed them one after another. The Ming army in the prefectures along the canal was like adding fuel, and one by one they were either destroyed or captured. , all died outside Fengyang City.

And Xiangyang is even more unbearable - although there is a good general Qin Liangyu coming out of Sichuan, and the white pole soldiers are also elite soldiers, they are few in number and it depends on who they compare with. They were soon defeated at the hands of Zhang Shi, and the remaining soldiers retreated to Sichuan.

"So... everything north of the Yangtze River is under control." Ying Yi nodded slightly: "What about Guanzhong?"

Zheng Yunzhi said: "General Li Huan obeyed the wishes of the emperor, and his main purpose was to intimidate Guanzhong and destroy the bandits in Guanzhong. His influence spread very quickly, but he never occupied Guanzhong."

Ying Yi nodded.

Henan was the closest to the war on the southern front and was naturally the first to know about it. If the war is going well, it must be publicized to enhance the people's confidence. Therefore, it has not been concealed, and there is nothing to hide.

According to the current situation, Ying Yi has almost half of the country. Although the Huaihe River Basin, Huguang and other places have not yet established a governing body, the Ming court has wiped out all the forces, just waiting for him to take over.

As for the north, Guanzhong has long been influential. Only Shanxi, northern Shaanxi, and the line from Datong to Ningxia and Gansu are still outside the influence. Of course, there are also Sichuan, Yunnan, and surrounding Tibetan areas that are beyond our reach.

The same is true in Jiangnan.

"The expansion is too fast, and the foundation cannot keep up." Ying Yi shook his head slightly: "Take your time."

Then he said: "The north has been established, but everything is waiting to be done. There is only one capital, which is a headache. It's a good thing you are here, otherwise the capital will be under military control for several months."

He said: "Yan Ermei has started to build the government framework in the capital in the past few days. Now that you are here, take over and deal with the specific details according to the Kaifeng example and the new law."

He added: "First clarify the population, household registration, farming, commerce, and taxation. As for education, we will postpone it for a while. The land of the capital is the essence of the previous dynasty, and there are countless nobles and powerful families left behind. They kidnap their names, seize their privileges, and reclaim the land. , and other matters must be done first and first. Those who need to be ruthless must be ruthless. The army is here. Anyone who dares to stab will be killed. "

Zheng Yunzhi, Sun Xiucai and others listened and immediately understood.

Zheng Yunzhi said: "Your Majesty, the capital is easy to handle, but the entire northern states are not. The biggest problem is the shortage of officials."

Ying Yi deeply agreed and said: "If there is a problem, find a way to solve it. I have captured all the civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty. Although there is a lot of dross, there is also some essence. If you remove the dross and use the essence, you should be able to screen out some capable people. People. I will set the tone here - no need for those over fifty years old."

Zheng Yunzhi and others nodded in agreement.

Ying Yi said again: "The capital is prosperous in culture and there are countless scholars. There are also students from the Imperial Academy who can be selected and hired as appropriate. First, sort out the capital thoroughly and observe the available people in the process. If you have the ability, you can hire them in the capital. After the work was completed, he was sent to various places and served as local officials."

"While the governing agencies are being rolled out, various policies will be rolled out simultaneously in accordance with the new law. Focus on population and land first. Once the population issue is resolved and the land issue is resolved, everything will be easy to handle. The military will take care of the relevant aspects. Cooperate, you just go ahead and do it.”

Subsequently, detailed discussions were held on the structure of the rule. When he was in Henan, there were the Prefecture Mu Yamen and the Imperial Law Department Yamen, as well as their subordinate departments. However, Henan is small but the world is vast. Now that Ying Yi has ascended to the throne, the structure of this ruling institution must be further adjusted and improved.

The discussion lasted until the next morning before a rough decision was reached.

As far as the framework of the ruling institution is concerned, the Ming Dynasty has almost reached the pinnacle of the feudal dynasty. The main framework of the cabinet and six ministries is already extremely complete.

There were few things that could be changed, so Ying Yi, Zheng Yunzhi and others discussed making some slight adjustments on this basis to complete the structure in line with the development trend of the new dynasty.
