All Chapters of Game of the Throne: Chapter 941 - Chapter 950

There were many inherent problems in the rules of the Weisuo formulated by Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty. Even though the Ming Dynasty has only been established for less than 50 years, the Weisuo military system has not yet been completely corrupted, but there are already signs that it is difficult to maintain. The fact that the military households have been fleeing for a long time and would rather become refugees is very telling.Zhu Gaoxu also understood this. When Taizu established the Ming Dynasty, he had to re-establish order in all aspects. There were so many things that were inevitably unreasonable. It was just that later generations had to continue to make improvements, and it was obviously not possible to stick to the ancestral system.At noon the next day, Zhu Gaoxu hosted a banquet for civil and military officials in the central hall of the old courtyard, including the noble ministers accompanying the army, officials from the three Beiping offices,

From then on, Zhu Gaoxu sat on duty in the central hall of the old courtyard every day, listening to the border generals coming to report on their work.Most of the contents were about widening the walls of the garrisons, repairing and completing fortifications, or reclaiming a certain number of acres of land for garrison farming. A few of them included reports on capturing enemy spies. The generals' daily tasks were similar and sounded quite boring.However, everyone was mainly responsible for maintaining the operation of the government, so of course there were not many interesting things, and it was normal for there to be no waves. The border generals certainly would not speak out some of the dirty things inside, but would only rack their brains to come up with some serious things they had done.No wonder Emperor Xuanzong, who was quite capable in the Tang Dynasty, later became tired of politics and preferred to spend his days playing with the daughter of

Before leaving Beiping Prefecture, Zhu Gaoxu asked the people around him to recommend an envoy to be sent to the Tatar Asut tribe to enthrone Alutai.Hou Hai asked his subordinate Guo Ang to recommend a man, a professor of Confucianism in Beiping Prefecture named Chen Xiang. He was a young official who was a juren and volunteered to go to Tatar. His name was introduced by his acquaintance Guo Ang, and only then did Zhu Gaoxu hear about it.According to Hou Hai, Chen Xiang thought this trip was a good opportunity for his career. If the emperor was not on tour and there were not many civil servants around him, he would not have the chance to get good things. Chen Xiang went to Guo several times to beg him to get this opportunity.Considering that the Tatars had killed or detained Ming envoys more than once in the past, and that several promising and powerful officials around Zhu Gaoxu were not suitable for this task, Zhu Gaoxu met Chen Xiang in person.C

In the middle of the twelfth lunar month, Zhu Gaoxu and his entourage arrived at Guangning Zhongtunwei (Jinzhou).Not long after arriving, Jinyiwei Commander Zhang Sheng walked into the courtyard. After seeing Zhu Gaoxu, he reported, "Your Majesty, Liaodong Commander Cao Yi has arrived at Zhongtunwei."Zhu Gaoxu was surprised after hearing this. Before the northern tour, the court issued a notice prohibiting local officials from leaving the city to welcome him without permission. And the Liaodong Commander actually left the seat of government for more than 400 miles to come here, which was indeed unusual.But at this time, Zhang Sheng's voice said, "He came here in cloth clothes and had a seal with him."Zhu Gaoxu said, "Bring him in."Zhang Sheng clasped his fists and said, "I obey your command."After a while, Cao Yi first kowtowed outside the door, and then came in to pay his respects. The man was wearing a bulky gray cloth with snowflak

It should have been early in the afternoon when the snow stopped, but the days were short in winter and the cloudy sky had gradually darkened. Snow was still piled up on the roofs, roadsides, and every corner. Zhu Gaoxu felt that the snow in Liaodong might not melt until the beginning of spring.When he arrived at Mu Zhen's residence, he found Chen Xianzhen was also there.After the greeting, Mu Zhen said, "Mrs. Chen is really very polite. Yesterday, I gave her a coat, and she made some food from Thang Long City, Annan, in return, and even delivered it to me personally."Zhu Gaoxu nodded."I'm wearing this today." Chen Xianzhen immediately said. Before Mu Zhen finished speaking, Chen Xianzhen seemed to rush to speak to Zhu Gaoxu.Zhu Gaoxu turned around and looked at Chen Xianzhen, and said, "Yes, the dress is very beautiful."Chen Xianzhen noticed his gaze and looked up at Zhu Gaoxu for a moment. Her eyes seemed to be somewhat shy, but per
