The war in the Ming Dynasty has always won more than defeats. The biggest defeat was the Battle of Tumubao, but the situation was soon restored by the Beijing defense battle.

But this victory in suppressing the rebellion was enough to make everyone feel incredible.

Now Ye Chunqiu is confident and explains all kinds of strong evidence in detail. Then this matter must be almost the same. It is even more conceivable, what a great contribution it is.

Even Liu Yu, who was a censor, immediately admitted his mistake after thinking something was wrong. This was not just because of his weakness, but because, if it was really as Ye Chunqiu said, what he had questioned and slandered just now was a group of real heroes of the Ming Dynasty. It took courage to question heroes and loyalty and wise men. If it was not right, he might be responsible for the crime. So Liu Yu did not hesitate and fell to the ground and crawled to say the four words "the crime of death of the minister".

Originally, Ye Chunqiu returned safely, Zhu Houzhao swept away his dark mood before. Now what Ye Chunqiu said confirmed the credibility of the battle results, and Zhu Houzhao was very happy.

Zhu Houzhao had already hated Zhu Jili, but when he thought of Zhu Jili's deliberate rebellion, he was defeated by the new army in Zhenguo overnight. Zhu Houzhao even thought that Zhu Jili must have been extremely desperate before he died. Unfortunately, he was already dead, otherwise he would be escorted to the capital and he had to be torn to pieces.

However, Zhu Houzhao still restrained his excitement and pleasure at this time, and looked at Liu Yu coldly. He felt that Liu Yu was a little annoyed, and snorted coldly, "So, according to your opinion, does Liu Qing still have any opinions on this Duke of Zhenguo who was posthumously enfeoffed?"

Ye Chunqiu was shocked when he heard the pursuit of Duke Zhenguo. He was not dead yet, so why did he follow the pursuit of Duke?

But Liu Yu said obediently: "Not to mention that Ye Shixue has made great contributions, he should have rewarded him heavily, not to mention that His Majesty has opened a golden mouth and the emperor has already told the world that if he breaks his word and is fat, it will inevitably arouse suspicion from all over the world. It's just... me..." He looked at Zhu Houzhao carefully, as if he wanted to speak but stopped.

At this moment, he seemed to be pushed to the forefront. The Grand Censor made such a fatal mistake, which was very likely to put himself in a very passive situation, so he had to deal with it carefully.

A good person does not live long. A turtle lives for a thousand years. This is actually quite scientific. You should know that a good person always has a bottom line and has his own principles. When he sticks to his bottom line and principles, he may bring disaster to himself. But a turtle is different. People like Liu Yu, once they feel any danger, they will immediately change their minds and take everything into consideration. So at this time, his words turned around and said, "But, if you are granted a title of Duke, as far as I know, there is no precedent for Dukes to be appointed as a bachelor or a minister in the Ming Dynasty..."

The so-called ministers here refer to the system of civil servants. In other words, once they become Duke Zhenguo, it means that Ye Chunqiu, the position of serving as a scholar, will be gone.

Of course, everyone has a concept of which is more important than the attendant or the Duke of the Kingdom. This Duke of the Kingdom is a title that is the same as the country. Unlike ordinary marquises and earls, they often have a great influence on the court and share the same woe with the palace. After all, the attendant is only a cabinet scholar. Even the prime minister, in the end, he still has to beg his elders to return home. At most, the children have only the opportunity to study in the Imperial College. However, the Duke of the Kingdom is different. The Duke of the Kingdom is still the Duke of the Kingdom, and the second son of the Duke of the Kingdom can at least inherit a commander. This is a real wealthy family.

It is precisely because of the differences between the Duke of the Kingdom, the Marquis and the Earl that the Ming Dynasty has always been stingy with the Duke. It has continued to this day. There are many princes and princes as many as dogs. However, the real Duke is just the Duke of Wei, Duke of England, Duke of Ding, Duke of Qian, and Duke of Cheng. Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, only the Duke of Qian and Duke of Wei have achieved fruitful results. After the Jingnan Campaign, Duke of Ding, Duke of England and Duke of Cheng of the Kingdom, Duke of Ding, Duke of Ding of the Kingdom of Zhang, Duke of Cheng of Zhu, Duke of Cheng of the Kingdom of Guizhou, Duke of Qian of Mu.

In the following hundred years, although the court posthumously conferred many dukes, this thing was not hereditary. Just like Ye Chunqiu's conferred title, it was just an honor after death.

It is precisely because of this that when the posthumous seal was revealed, everyone found that Ye Chunqiu was still alive, which led to the controversy of too much grace and glory.

Except for those who are like Liu Yu and Zhang Cai who are guarding against Ye Chunqiu, most of them believe that the Duke of the Kingdom is the highest honor of the Ming Dynasty, and once the title is granted, it will be very inappropriate.

In the history of the Ming Dynasty, there were so many outstanding people, and the founding heroes were like crucians. However, only six of them could be named Duke, and a few were cut off by Zhu Yuanzhang, because even six were too many, Old Zhu thought it was too much, which shows that the value of this Duke can be imagined.

The other five public tribes are almost all the pillars of the Ming Dynasty. Some towns are in Yunnan, some guarded in Nanjing for generations, and some specialize in the five military camps and supervised the world's military horses. Most of them have one characteristic, that is, after several generations, countless children and relatives have penetrated into all aspects of the Ming system. No matter how far or near their children, they often enter the personal army first, and after a few years of training, they will be granted official positions and guard all over the country.

Especially the Mu family in Yunnan, in the entire Yunnan, at least three of the ten military officers may have something to do with the Mu family. Each of the public clans is a giant. Most of them have marriages with important officials and even the royal family. It can even be said that they already have the status of royal relatives.

It is also because of this that in order to maintain the purity of the civil servant system, they and their children generally do not go through the imperial examinations and will not enter the cultural management system.

Because their power is too great, and once Ye Chunqiu was named Duke Zhenguo, although it was only a generation of Duke, the system of Duke Zhenguo had not yet been developed. However, Duke Zhenguo's system, because it was the title of the emperor before, had already formed a system after two years of operation. From the Research Institute to the New Army of Zhenguo, from the New Army of Zhenguo to the recruitment agency, it requires money and people. Although it is not as scattered as other Dukes, it is also a force that cannot be ignored.

Liu Yu proposed this, but this time it was not a difficult situation for Ye Chunqiu. He no longer had the courage to mess around. Instead, he recognised the title of Ye Chunqiu, Duke Zhenguo. Duke Zhenguo, this surnamed Ye has made a real fortune, but you still want to be a servant, so you are really crazy. (To be continued., Your support is my greatest motivation.) 16-09-29 05:30:10
