Chapter 238: Promotion of rank and title! Chen Han was granted the title of Duke Qian! !
At first, the relevant yamen will feel open. After the night market,
Too much movement of people coming and going will definitely lead to more rumors and confusion.
It will cause more people to be involved in unpredictable events.
But what I didn't expect was that the common people were voluntarily maintaining the appearance of the market. I also cherish the rare city appearance in front of me. Businessmen are more happy to see this situation, Because only in this way can they really do business, The entire capital is quite harmonious. Material affluence enabled the people to finally have higher spiritual pursuits. This is something that many people don’t imagine.
Even though many scholars have repeatedly emphasized that after the night market was opened, Then there will be more people doing evil things, and the crime rate will be higher. But not as they thought. An open atmosphere promotes prosperity.
The foreign envoys who came to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty were all dumbfounded. Let them think of a term at the same time, that is, the atmosphere of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Only during the prosperous Tang Dynasty could we truly see the current scene. Only in such an era can one feel the prosperity of all nations coming to court. Only in such a dynasty can we truly feel openness, tolerance, and inclusiveness. The night market created by Chen Han and the powerful atmosphere of the Ming Dynasty,
Finally, let these tribute envoys know that Chen Han and the others are definitely not doing this just to look good. Rather, he truly pursues the atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty,
Even Chen Han's goal is probably to be more grand than the weather of the Tang Dynasty. When I thought of these envoys here, they all fell in admiration for the scene of the Ming Dynasty today. Only then did everyone see that Chen Han's reforms had become so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people quietly.
It really moisturizes things silently, which is really unexpected. It is changing people's lives and changing everyone's living habits. If this were placed before, how could there be glass, red bricks and cement? It was difficult for the common people to even hear about it, let alone see it. But it is precisely because of Chen Han's changes that they can enjoy products that transcend the times in this era. This is the charm of reform. In the past, how could anyone think about tidying up their house? How could anyone think of decorating the windows of their house with glass?
How is it possible to feel the solidity of cement? It is precisely because of these changes that the people of the Ming Dynasty now see the success of the reform.
It is precisely because of these changes that the current Ming Dynasty has a shocking spirit. After these foreign envoys arrived in the capital of the Ming Dynasty, their first feeling was to return to the atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty that was only recorded in books. Because they believed that only the Tang Dynasty had such courage.
Other dynasties are just following suit. But today's Great Ming Dynasty is different from that of the Tang Dynasty. Because no matter how prosperous the Tang Dynasty was. In fact, the essence is not transcendent from the matter of thousands of years.
But the Ming Dynasty was different.
The cement and glass that appear now in the Ming Dynasty are things that have not appeared since ancient times. From this aspect, the Ming Dynasty has surpassed the Tang Dynasty. That's why foreign envoys have misconceptions. It is precisely because of the atmosphere created by Chen Han that envoys from those countries in Southeast Asia can
After listening to Chen Han's words, I no longer feel that what Chen Han said is a lie.
But I think it might actually come true one day. If I can seize such an opportunity at this time,
If you get more treasure money in your hands, maybe you will find out in a year or two that the value has really increased. It turns out that you can really do what Chen Han said and increase the money you have by three or four times. These countries in Southeast Asia, especially the envoys from these countries after the meeting, Now I no longer have the same doubts as before. Especially after seeing the courage shown by Daming now,
When they think of this, their ambitions widen. …… At this time, Chen Han and Princess Jiangdu, who were sitting in the top seats of Fengtian Hall, never thought that
The old man would arrange it like this, and he didn't even expect that the old man would value Chen Han to such an extent. Now that all the nations have come to court, the whole country already knows that His Highness the Prince’s birthday is.
It's not just a birthday,
It may represent a political tendency, There may be news that will shock everyone. Thinking of this, they are all looking forward to it. The foreign envoys who came to pay tribute were also looking forward to it. The envoys are looking forward to what kind of changes His Majesty the Emperor of Ming Dynasty will have.
We are also looking forward to whether, under such circumstances, some laws beneficial to the vassal country will be promulgated. Zhu Yuanzhang indeed had something to announce as everyone imagined. The first thing is to announce Chen Han's achievements at this time. "Dear ministers and envoys, what you don't know is that our Ming Dynasty has a genius.
It is Chen Han and Chen Zhinian who not only led the Ming Dynasty, but also climbed to its current prosperity within one year. Even without your knowledge, he did some shocking things. Therefore, you should have no objections to Chen Han's further promotion to the title. " After he finished speaking, he looked at the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs below,
and those envoys who paid tribute,
Focus on introducing Chen Han. The emperor's words could only be conveyed to the ministers nearby, but his heavenly voice was conveyed to the two senior military attachés nearby.
Two people pass on to four people,
Then eight people, sixteen people, and thirty-two people shouted in succession,
In the end, three hundred and twenty Han generals delivered the message in unison at the top of their lungs. The sound shook the roof tiles, and all onlookers were moved. The envoys from various countries were shocked. It turns out that Chen Han is doing all this. It turns out that this young man is doing all this.
After everyone listened, they all whispered, Although the civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty may not all be convinced by Chen Han, because Chen Han made the Kong family look like that, So I didn’t feel anything, but for foreign envoys, Chen Han's appearance was like a shining meteor streaking across the sky above the Ming Dynasty.
Perhaps Chen Han's reforms can really bring the Ming Dynasty back to the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. The envoys from various countries in the Western Regions were even more surprised when they looked at Chen Han. If the Ming Dynasty can really be restored to the national power of the Tang Dynasty, The countries in the Western Region have not had a good time. Although everyone seems to be surrendering under the iron heel of the Ming Dynasty now, On the surface, he was respectful to the Dusi Yamen established by the Ming Dynasty in the Western Regions.
In fact, it was just to give Daming face. Everyone didn't know what extent Daming would go to, so they didn't tear this face apart. But when they heard that Chen Han had changed the Ming Dynasty into what it is now in one year, they showed a look of fear. What exactly did Datang do in those years?
Only these envoys from various countries in the Western Regions knew it very well. Although five or six hundred years have passed, they still have fresh memories of what the Tang Dynasty was like back then. I still tremble with fear whenever I mention that time.
In that era, the generals of the Tang Dynasty were like a cloud;
In that era, the Tang Dynasty's iron cavalry was everywhere, and all countries could hardly resist it.
They can only truly bow their heads, or even come to Chang'an City, the original capital of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Shimin, the Han emperor at that time, was respectfully called Tian Khan. Are they really convinced? Do not!
That's all because I'm afraid of being beaten. And now so many years have passed, even when Genghis Khan and Kublai Khan conquered them,
It’s not like the current weather, Although the Mongolian cavalry back then were powerful,
But their national power is not necessarily that strong. Under the iron cavalry of the Mongols, all the countries in the Western Regions were also making excuses. Although they surrendered at the time, they immediately resurrected as soon as the Mongolian cavalry left. Because they knew that although the Mongols were powerful, they were not able to truly rule such a huge empire. But now they are a little frightened. If the Ming Dynasty was really like the Tang Dynasty,
That will definitely start the conquest against the countries in the Western Region again. How will your family deal with it then? So they whispered among themselves: "No, what if they really restored the atmosphere like that of the Tang Dynasty?" "If that's the case, won't we have to fight again? Will we be put under the iron heel again?" For a time, the shadow of war shrouded the faces of these envoys from various countries in the Western Regions. All of their faces turned pale for a moment;
It made them all restless for a while. Originally, it was a joy for them to come to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty.
They could sell their own local specialties, dried fruits and the like to the Ming Dynasty for a good price.
Unexpectedly, they heard such news, so it was like a basin of cold water poured from head to toe, waking them up all at once. The Ming Dynasty, like other Tang dynasties, had huge ambitions for places like the Western Regions.
They are never willing to give in, and they always hope to expand in the Central Plains. And the area in the Western Region is rich in products and vast in territory. It can also reach many Persian and Arab countries in the West. At that time, the countries in the Western Regions will be a stumbling block for the Ming Dynasty to conquer the west. At that time, his people will inevitably be caught in the flames of war again. So after hearing what the Ming Emperor said, the expressions on the faces of all the countries in the Western Regions were very ugly. Even their faces were uglier than those of the envoys from Arab countries. After hearing what Zhu Yuanzhang said, the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs didn't want to admit it. But it is also worth admitting that Chen Han has indeed achieved some shocking achievements this year. Chen Han changed the current structure of the Ming Dynasty. Changing the living habits of the people of the Ming Dynasty were all huge achievements. Especially in the past few months, although Chen Han has come back, after boatloads of silver were shipped back from the Japanese slaves,
Let the common people, as well as these officials, exchange the treasure notes that they cannot handle into silver and store them in the cellars at home.
Let them finally feel at ease in their hearts,
Let them finally no longer feel that their hearts are hanging, Let them finally feel that even if the Ming Dynasty treasure banknotes depreciate again,
They can also withstand this storm. When they thought that all the credit for this was given by Chen Han, they felt uncomfortable in their hearts. They would rather that the gold and silver did not flow into their pockets than admit that they owed Chen Han a favor.
But that's the fact. They don't want to admit it, but they have to admit it. King Yan and King Zhou sat across from Chen Han, looking at their father and their eldest brother above Dan. Although they had long been convinced of Chen Han, they were still a little surprised when they heard that their father wanted to make Chen Han the Duke of the country. Although Chen Han's arrival made Ming Dynasty more glorious,
But in their hearts, they also wondered if Chen Han, being so young, might arouse some unnecessary suspicion.
Such suspicion will not only detract from the majesty of the father, but
It will even cause some unnecessary trouble for Chen Han.
But when I think of Chen Han's achievements, I immediately think of another sentence - heroes are no longer young!
When they thought of this, they looked at Chen Han's beauty with admiration. For Chen Han to be able to obtain a higher title, Chen Han can. They didn't have the slightest objection to the promotion of officials and noble titles. So King Jin took the lead and stood up first, Then the King of Yan, King of Zhou, King of Chu, and King of Xiang all stood up. They shouted loudly, "Father, you want to be promoted to Chen Han's title, and we are convinced!" "We also feel that it is a great achievement. It is more than enough to be a prince!" "It's really unfair that it's just Marquis Pinglu now. If my father doesn't increase the reward, we will all feel aggrieved for him!" After talking about it, they already called Chen Han sir. Because they have invested in the Daming Chamber of Commerce created by Chen Han in the past month, and also obtained their own shares. So we know that Chen Han can only do more things if he has a higher title.
They hope that Chen Han will have a smooth path, and that Chen Han will have higher power. Only in this way can we lead everyone forward together. Then Xia Yuanji, Tie Xuan, Jian Yi, Xu Huizu and others also stood up, "I second my opinion!" Then the ministers of the cabinet also stood up: "I second my opinion!" The prince and the civil and military ministers all stood up and wanted to promote Chen Han to a higher position. What else could anyone else say?
So the civil and military officials stood up one after another, "I second my opinion!" Zhu Yuanzhang sat on the dragon chair and laughed loudly: "Okay, since the vassal king and the queens are working together like this, This is my Ming Dynasty’s blessing, my Ming Dynasty’s blessing! !
I have made up my mind. The Jin Dynasty will grant Chen Han the title of Duke of Qian, with an estate of two thousand stones! ! " The reason why Chen Han was named Duke Qian was because Chen Han told them,
His hometown was called Qianqian for short, so he was granted the title of Duke of Qian.
In fact, according to Zhu Yuanzhang's wishes, just because Chen Han saved his eldest son Zhu Biao, it would not be an exaggeration to make Chen Han a prince.
However, this was really unreasonable, so he reluctantly made Chen Han a Duke. After Chen Han was made a Duke, all the civil and military ministers bowed to Chen Han. Except for those who hold the title of Duke, they do not need to salute. Others are allowed to bow and pay homage: "O minister, please see the Duke of Qian!!" …… (End of this chapter)
