Chapter 194 Prince Yu’s debut in the Wuying Hall (monthly tickets plus updates)
In the Wuying Hall, all the meritorious officials and soldiers who participated in the defense battle in the suburbs of Beijing received varying degrees of rewards.
For example, Wang Ruxiao, the governor of Ji Liaodu and censor Wang Ruxiao, who is part of the imperial court system, was added to the title of Crown Prince and Young Master (from the first rank); Yin Yizi was given the title of hereditary Jin Yiwei Qianhu; Ji Zhen's general soldier Luo Xihang was added to the former army commander The governor of the prefecture has the same official position (from the first rank), and Yin Yizi is the hereditary commander.
There are also some lower-level civil servants and generals who have been promoted to varying degrees from one to three levels, and their rewards are also different according to the corresponding levels to show their favor.
The Royal Horse Supervisor of the Inner Court is even more simple and rude. Feng Bao and the other three battalion admirals were given python robes and received double salaries. Yin Zi’s nephew was appointed as the Jinyi Guard Baihu, and Feng Bao was promoted to the rank of Si The ceremonial supervisor Bingbi eunuch.
It can be said that after this battle, Feng Bao soared into the sky, directly entering the edge of the center of power, and had the potential of a great eunuch.
But before he actually received the reward, Emperor Jiajing asked Huang Jin to come over again with the intention of punishing him, and gave him a severe lesson. He was beaten so hard that he couldn't get off the ground for half a month.
It can be seen how vindictive Emperor Jiajing was. He still remembers the incident when Feng Bao handed over the soldiers and horses of the Four Guards Battalion to Zhu Zaijing to take risks.
This matter is now entirely blamed on the champion Hou Zhu Wuji who died young, making Feng Bao still the nominal admiral of the Fourth Guards Battalion. Otherwise, Feng Bao would be scratched based on this crime. He It is not a pity to die.
So this beating can be regarded as Emperor Jiajing's favor and mercy towards him.
The rewards in Shunyi Industrial Park are also relatively simple. Zhang Tianci was promoted to the fifth-rank director of the Ministry of Industry, and he was allowed to inherit this position. Although this reward is not high, it is an unprecedented reward, and it is the only one of its kind. .
Moreover, Zhang Tianci did not have to go to the Ministry of Industry to order anything, and could directly stay in Shunyi Industrial Park and continue to take orders.
The other person who also received such a favor was Li Shizhen. Li Shizhen was directly mentioned by the eighth-rank imperial doctor to the imperial hospital as the envoy of the fifth-rank imperial hospital. Moreover, like Zhang Tianci, he did not have to go to the imperial hospital to manage affairs. He was directly responsible for the construction of the "Medical Academy" in the second phase of Shunyi Industrial Park. At the same time, he also gave Li Shizhen the third generation of imperial hospital envoy and the fifth grade imperial edict, and also gave his son the title of Jinyiwei Baihu.
Although such a reward may not sound big, it is an exceptional reward. Otherwise, given the identities and roles of Li Shizhen and Zhang Tianci, it would not be an exaggeration to say that they are dispensable.
However, Emperor Jiajing still sealed these people according to the list of meritorious officials submitted by Shunyi Industrial Park.
It can be seen that Emperor Jiajing was very clear about this matter. It was not easy for these people to know that it was not easy for them. To add more favors and give some rewards was also a manifestation of the emperor's magnanimity.
As for Meng Chong, Teng Xiang, Chen Hong, and Li Fang, the four of them did not receive any merit or titles, nor did they have any changes in their positions. They were only rewarded with some gold and silver fields and encouraged them to continue. Do things for the palace.
Of course they will not be disappointed because of this, because anyone who is not stupid can see how attractive their current position is, and how many people are staring at their position with red eyes. Want to replace it.
Because the reputation of Shunyi Industrial Park is so great now, this industrial park is hung in the palace and under Huang Jin. No one wonders whether it is the property of His Majesty the Emperor.
But no one dares to say this, because the business of this Shunyi Industrial Park is so unpopular that it is impossible to talk about competing with the people for profit, and the twenty-four yamen in the palace itself are There is a tradition of doing business, so even if this statement breaks the heavens, no one can blame Emperor Jiajing in the slightest.
Therefore, the existence of Shunyi Industrial Park is a special existence, whether in the palace or among the people.
So it is natural and normal that it attracts attention. Therefore, if Meng Chong, Teng Xiang, Chen Hong, and Li Fang are not transferred to their positions and management responsibilities in this industrial park, that is the biggest reward.
After these named rewards are over, there are those ordinary soldiers charging on the front line.
Emperor Jiajing was not lenient with the rewards and gifts for these soldiers who participated in the war. Those who belonged to the Ministry of War would be promoted by the Ministry of War, and they would be rewarded with double pay and silver; those who belonged to the Royal Horse Supervisor would be promoted by the Royal Horse Supervisor. Also rewarded with corresponding double salary and silver. As for the soldiers who died in battle, Emperor Jiajing also added three levels of rewards. Ordinary soldiers were given a hundred households, small flags were added to a thousand households, and thousands of households were added to the commanding affairs.
It can be said that this Wuying Palace Awarding Ceremony is an exciting and satisfying awarding event for all the soldiers who participated in the war.
Finally, at Zhu Zaijing's private suggestion, Emperor Jiajing issued an edict to build a "Monument to the Martyrs of the Ming Dynasty" at the site of the decisive battle at the Chaobai River. The battle was embossed around the monument, and this inscription was engraved on it. The names of all the soldiers who died in the war were inscribed on it, and the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War were ordered to send official representatives to the monument every year to pay their respects in memory, to demonstrate the importance the court attached to and to commemorate the martyrs who sacrificed their lives to protect the family and the country.
After the edicts and edicts on these rewards were issued, everyone in the Wuying Palace shouted excitedly and praised His Majesty the Emperor for his benevolence and martial arts.
Emperor Jiajing calmly accepted the congratulations of the officials, and then announced the news of a banquet for meritorious officials at Wuying Hall. Then he left Wuying Hall and sent an order to King Yu, Zhu Zaijing, to host the banquet for meritorious officials at Wuying Hall. .
Zhu Zaijing, who was planning the next move for the Shunyi Industrial Park with the palace and Meng Chong, had no choice but to put down his plans after receiving the order to go to the Wuying Hall to host a banquet for heroes. A long-lost scarlet red prince embroidered dragon uniform arrived in front of Wuying Hall.
The meritorious ministers who had long been waiting in front of the Wuying Palace for the defense of the capital and suburbs saw His Highness King Yu coming, and they all stood up and bowed: "I will pay my respects to His Highness King Yu. Your Majesty is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old." "
Zhu Zaijing stood on the steps in front of Wuying Palace, smiling gracefully, "Everyone, please get up. I am hosting this banquet according to His Majesty's order. You don't need to be polite. Please be casual. That’s it.”
The officials replied: “Thank you, Lord.”
Then they stood up and sat down in their respective positions.
Zhu Zaijing also came to the main table where cabinet ministers Yan Song, Zhang Zhi and others were sitting. He bowed slightly to Yan Song, Zhang Zhi and others: "I have met all the cabinet ministers."
< br>
Yan Song, Zhang Zhi and others did not dare to accept it openly, and they all returned their greetings one after another: "I pay my respects to the prince."
Zhu Zaijing naturally stood in the chief position and smiled again: "Gentlemen, Please take a seat. This is the first time for this king to host such an important banquet. If there are any shortcomings, please bear with me."
Yan Song and others replied: "Your Majesty's words are serious. I will try my best to share the prince's worries."
Zhu Zaijing laughed, invited everyone to sit down, and then ordered Xu Jie, the Minister of Rites, to announce the opening of the banquet.
The first banquet for King Yu to meet hundreds of officials just kicked off. At this moment, everyone’s eyes were focused on Zhu Zaijing, and at the same time, their thoughts also followed. This banquet of heroes in front of Wuying Palace became lively.
If I remember correctly, the princes who can host the Wuying Hall banquet on behalf of the emperor should all be the current princes, right?
For example, Prince Yiwen of the Taizu Dynasty and Emperor Renzong of the Chengzu Dynasty, when they were crown princes, they often hosted banquets for nobles in Wuying Hall on behalf of the emperor.
But as the princes of subsequent generations of emperors became too young, this tradition disappeared. Now it has been picked out by Emperor Jiajing, which makes people think too much.
Although Zhu Zaijing has not yet been canonized, everyone knows that if His Majesty wants to establish a heir apparent, Prince Yu must be the first choice if there is no legitimate son!
So at this banquet, what the officials are eating is not just a banquet, but a vane for the future!
