Chapter 303 I understand, I don’t want my uncle!

I have to say that these old guys are very decisive.

But in the end, they didn't suffer.

Use a life that has only a few years to live to give future generations a guarantee of wealth and glory.

It is buried in the Xiaoling Mausoleum and is worthy of enjoying the Imperial Ancestral Temple.

These two items alone basically determine that their descendants must live with the country. This is the highest treatment given to the founding fathers in the past. Unless they rebel, descendants will basically be fine. Even if someone commits a crime and dies, the title

It won't break. This is better than the iron ticket which is comparable to a life-saving charm. The iron ticket has a number of times to save your life. Use it once to draw a line, and it will be invalid after three times.

But being buried in the Xiaoling Mausoleum and enjoying the Ancestral Temple are permanent guarantees for future generations.

It's true that it doesn't necessarily save your life.

But keep the title.

As long as his descendants do not participate in rebellion or the like, the title will continue to be passed down.

Rest with the country.

Of course, the more important thing is that Yang Feng's intervention made them understand that their time has passed, and it is no longer the time for veterans like them to dominate the world. No matter whether they have ambitions or not, they should honestly withdraw.

Sizhou.

"Does Marquis Changxing count?"

Yang Feng looked curiously at Geng Bingwen, who was waiting to greet them at the bridge.

"This is hard to say.

It is said that he should be considered the second generation. His father, Geng Junyong, crossed the river with Emperor Daxing. Later, he died in Yixing during the battle with Zhang Shicheng. But based on his age, he is indeed considered a veteran. His father died in the battle early.

, in fact, he has been fighting with Emperor Daxing for his whole life.

But when it comes to being a brother to Emperor Daxing, he is indeed not qualified.

His father is."

The commander of the Shenji Battalion who was responsible for guarding them said quickly.

"forget about it!"

said the little princess.

These veterans who need to die have their own standards.

Must be the first generation.

That is to say, he followed Zhu Yuanzhang to raise troops, or defected with the deployment, or surrendered in the meantime. As for Lan Yu, he can still be regarded as the first generation. Although he followed his brother-in-law, his brother-in-law and Zhu Yuanzhang were brothers, so of course he could not forget it, and more

What's more, if the King of Shu marries his daughter, Zhu Yuanzhang and he are still in-laws.

This ensures that they belong to the same generation.

Geng Bingwen succeeded his father, and his father Geng Junyong was one of the twenty-four generals of Huaixi.

It's just that he is older.

They just walked across the Sizhou Floating Bridge, and then saw Geng Bingwen walking forward with a solemn look on his face.

"I respectfully welcome the princess. I have followed Emperor Daxing for more than forty years. Now that Emperor Daxing has ascended to heaven, I have asked myself to die with him."

He held up the memorial with both hands and said.

"Well, the Marquis of Changxing is a truly loyal minister!"

Yang Feng said with emotion.

This old guy is very sensible.

Now anyone with a clear mind will already understand who the final winner will be when he appears next to the little princess. It goes without saying that even if the queen gives birth to a son other than a son, the throne will not be in the hands of Zhu Yunwen. After all, the emperor is

Everyone actually knows how he died, and Yang Feng and the little princess will definitely not let Zhu Yunwen succeed to the throne. Even if they don't disclose the truth, they will use other excuses. As for the throne, it is most likely to be given to King Yan, or even the queen will adopt one from the clan.

As the emperor's stepson, he inherited the throne.

They are all Zhu family members anyway.

Then you have to make a post-mortem list of the previous things.

He had already complied with the edict of the Supervisor and recognized Zhu Yunwen's status as the Supervisor. In total, he would be on the blacklist, but now he is posing as a loyal minister, giving up his life in just a few years and the glory of future generations.

Wealth and honor are preserved.

He is sixty-five years old this year, and he originally had a little more than four years left to live.

Totally worth it.

"The Marquis of Changxing is loyal to Emperor Daxing. Please accept Hanshan's respect."

The little princess quickly saluted him.

"It is the honor of the old minister to be loyal to the great emperor when the princess defeats him."

Geng Bingwen said.

After saying that, he took out the blunderbuss he had prepared earlier, bowed five times and kowtowed three times in the direction of the capital, then knelt there, raised the blunderbuss, and shot himself in the temple. Another marquis fell with the sound of the gunshot.

Down.

Yang Feng looked at the soldiers standing in front of him with emotion.

The latter also looked at him.

These are mainly from the Shandong Capital Command and Envoy Department.

Zhou Dexing and Geng Bingwen were in charge of Beiping and Shandong respectively. However, Zhou Dexing was the commander-in-chief and met with the kings after going south. However, they were all in Fengyang, stationed on the north bank of the Huaihe River. Lan Yu personally led the army to station in Fengyang, and the two sides were separated by the Huaihe River.

Confrontation. Geng Bingwen led this partial force, preparing to cross the river from Sizhou and then encircle Lanyu with Cao Zhen and others. However, he did not expect that Chen Huan blocked Xuyi. Now Zhou Dexing did not dare to cross the river rashly. After all, this meant that Cao Zhen and Chen Huan

In fact, the group may not really be with Zhu Yunwen, there is still the possibility of colluding with Lan Yu. If this is the case, Zhou Dexing rushes across the river to attack Fengyang, and Cao Zhen suddenly changes sides, then they are doomed.

So it's a confrontation.

Besides, this is the only way to maximize their interests, forcing Zhu Yunwen and the Jiangsu and Zhejiang gentry behind him to continuously pay money to truly destroy Lan Yu, but they lose the blackmail bargaining chip.

Everybody understands.

Yang Feng waved behind him.

Then a four-wheeled carriage moved forward.

He opened the car door, then took out a wooden box from inside, and then opened it, revealing a silvery reflection inside.

"Each person will receive ten pieces of silver, and then each of you will return to your defense."

he said.

The current rated exchange rate is one silver coin, that is, a large silver coin of one or two weights, worth four guan of treasure banknotes, and the treasure banknotes always buy one stone of brown rice. This currency value has been very stable since he helped Zhu Yuanzhang change it to the new treasure banknotes. 1

On the other hand, the Japanese and Liaodong places continued to produce silver, especially on the Japanese. The second was that forced foreign exchange settlement also allowed overseas silver to enter banks. The third was that grain production continued to increase, resulting in sufficient food in the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, the new treasure banknotes regardless of printing technology or watermarks

As well as color-changing inks, these have eliminated counterfeit banknotes to the greatest extent. Currently, counterfeit banknotes only deal with watermarks and printing, but color-changing inks really cannot solve the problem.

All this ensures that the banknotes are strong.

Of course, it still cannot support complete free convertibility.

Still a small amount is fine.

For large sums, you must be prepared to go to jail.

However, the deposits in the Beijing Bank were still enough to support Yang Feng's reward. In the final analysis, if you want these soldiers to disperse like this, you must give them the most impactful benefits.

Twelve taels of silver per person.

Forty kilograms of rice is almost equivalent to the income of these military households for more than two years.

In this way, with Geng Bingwen's suicide and Yang Feng's silver bullet, the Northern Army withdrew directly. Each returned to its own defense and no longer participated in this war. However, this was only for this group. The other groups had different reward methods.

…

Mainly because he doesn't have that much.

Carriages pulling silver coins came forward one after another. Thirty thousand Shandong Guardsmen lined up to receive the silver. After receiving the money, they left happily. The little princess looked pained. However, this was borrowed by the imperial court and would be needed in the future.

It must be repaid with interest. What's more, there are still people who can confiscate their homes. Those gentry who followed Zhu Yunwen, one by one. They had just cheered to get rid of Zhu Yuanzhang's shadow, but they did not expect that the second wave would come soon.

After dividing the money, Yang Feng and the little princess took the pontoon bridge back to Xuyi, and then went straight to Fengyang.

Before they arrived at Fengyang, they got the news that Zhu Yunwen had withdrawn his troops.

The latter refused to enter the city.

He just sent his brother's coffin into the city.

Anyway, there is no use for him to keep this coffin. The Zhu Yunxi inside does not stink yet, mainly because they have done some antiseptic treatment in advance, but it will definitely stink if it is delayed any longer. And even if it is sent to the city, it will have to be sent to an ice cellar.
