Chapter 1562: Exile
After the imperial decree, the nobles whose names were read burst into tears. The titles that had been passed on for more than ten generations and more than two hundred years were broken on him. How will he live in the future? How can he face his ancestors after death? Zong!
Those nobles who have just been praised by Shen Long are also silent. No matter what happens in the court, as long as we don't get involved, their own wealth will not be disturbed, but now His Majesty dares to break the title of the nobles. If we do not do well in the future, maybe we will follow in their footsteps!
No, it doesn't need to be in the future, the Beijing camp will be rectified soon, if I make any trouble here, or get involved with my family, I might lose my title! No, I have to gather all my family members after I go to court, and those who are not capable will resign and go home quickly, and those who are capable must cooperate with General Ding and the others to rectify the Beijing camp!
If in the past, Shen Long had conferred a title on a woman, the civil and military officials above the court would definitely have resolutely opposed it, but now the military commanders are afraid, and the civil officials are also afraid, and there are not many people who dare to insist on making Ding Baiying the earl , passed successfully.
"Silence!" Cao Huachun stopped their crying, and continued to recite the imperial decree, "But for the sake of your ancestors who have made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court will give you another chance. I have made great achievements in Ming Dynasty, so I might not be able to restore my title!"
Hey, it would be impossible for the imperial court to have no capable military generals. These honorable families have some heritage. If they are willing to work hard, maybe a few famous futures will emerge.
"Thank you, Lord Long En!" When they heard that their family still hoped to get the title back, these people were naturally grateful, and they all expressed that they would be brave and serve the court with all their heart.
"You are just incompetent, but some people are not only incompetent, but even have lost the most basic loyalty. They dare to seek rebellion, which is really treasonous!" Cao Huachun took out the third roster related to honors, "An Township Bo Zhang Guangcan, Suianbo Chen Bingheng, Pengcheng Bo Zhang Guangzu...the above people tried to incite the Beijing camp to riot, and were either killed on the spot or sent to Zhao Prison."
"The above titles will be erased, and all those who participated in the treason will be beheaded for public display, their property will be confiscated to fill the national treasury, and the three clans will be exiled to Qiongzhou, and will not be returned if they are pardoned!" Cao Huachun announced the punishment for these people.
"My emperor is lenient." The ministers were a little surprised by the result of this punishment. Since they all rebelled and rebelled, it is completely normal to cut nobles and confiscate their homes. Only the chief culprit was killed, and the three clans were just exiled. Although Qiongzhou is a land of barbarians, they finally saved their lives.
They thought that Shen Long was generous, but in fact, Shen Long just thought that people are precious resources, and it would be a waste to just kill them like this. It would be better to let them open up the territory for Ming Dynasty. Didn’t Europe occupy Australia by exiling prisoners back then? With New Zealand? Originally, he wanted these people to go to Dayuan Island, but now that the Dutch on Dayuan Island have not been expelled, they have to go to Hainan for a while.
After the Dutch are driven away in the future, the next batch of exiled people can be placed here; killing them is just a sigh of relief, and keeping them can help Daming reclaim some land and harvest more food.
Then there are those civil servants who accompanied Shen Long in the imperial conquest. Of course they are guilty, but because they can voluntarily plead guilty and stand up to testify against others, Shen Long will deal with them much lighter, or they will be demoted and retained. , or let them serve as officials in Jimen, Tongzhou, Zunhua and other places that were plagued by the Tartars, and let them restore the order in these places. I believe that with this lesson, they probably dare not be perfunctory right?
"Your Majesty's treatment of ministers and others is really too kind. I can't thank you enough. I can only repay Your Majesty by doing things with heart." These people finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Anyway, I saved my life, and the result is not too bad. If things are done well, I may not be able to continue to be promoted in the future, but after this incident, those who were reported by them will definitely regard them as thorns in their eyes and lose their backing Then I can only continue to hug His Majesty's thigh tightly.
"You need to remember today's words. I will waive the money and food in these places for a few years. After arriving in the place, if you need help from the court, you will report it truthfully. I will send someone to send it to you. But if someone dares to continue to collect from the people Don’t blame me for being ruthless!” After confiscating so many dignitaries’ and officials’ property, Shen Long’s internal treasury and Ming’s treasury are relatively abundant at the moment, and restoring order in several states and counties is not at all worth it. question.
However, Shen Long couldn't believe the integrity of those local officials, so he warned them in advance, hoping that they would not be deceived by the local officials after they took office, right? Those people said yes one after another, and wrote them down one by one.
"For those officials who died in Zunhua, Tongzhou, Sanhe and other places, the imperial court should provide generous compensation; and those who dare to abandon the city and flee, they should be beheaded and ransacked, and the three clans will be exiled to Qiongzhou!" These are what I said before, but now You can't blame others if you deal with it according to the regulations. The confiscated property is just used for the restoration of these places.
"For the troops under Liaodong Governor's command, as well as Mao Wenlong and other troops in Dongjiang Town, rewards and punishments will be made after the military achievements are reported and verified!" If you are sensible, you can come to the capital to lead the death yourself, hand over the military power and it will be over. If you die, you can keep your family.
But if you don't know the fun and continue to stay in Liaodong, then don't blame me for killing your whole family! Chongzhen did not dare to deal with Zu Dashou because he was afraid that he would turn to Jiannu, but Shen Long didn't worry about it at all, not to mention that Jiannu had been beaten by himself now, and after Huang Taiji's death, Mang Gurtai, Amin , Daishan, Dorgon and others will definitely fight together. As long as Zu Dashou still has a little brain, he will not go to join Jiannu.
"Your Majesty is wise!" These handlings were all reasonable, leaving the officials with nothing to say but to praise.
"Okay, the rewards and punishments for the war are now over for the time being, and it's time to talk about those things that go against the party; Dongchang and Jinyiwei continue to arrest suspects, and after the evidence is found, they will be handed over to the three justices for joint trial; the Ministry of punishment, Dali Temple and the capital The procuratorate has to be prepared." Shen Long asked the three courts to examine these people, firstly because of procedural issues, and secondly because he wanted to see if more people could be caught under such circumstances .
