As a time traveler, Li Mingxun agreed that the implementation of the Burke system in Kansai had more confidence from later generations, because in the original historical space and time, the Burke system was the political system in the Qing Dynasty that ruled the Tianshan South Road area except Hami and Turpan (Hami and Turpan were earlier in submission to the Qing court, and at that time, the Qing court was born in the Chagatai Khanate because the Yarkand Khanate was the same as the Mongols, so they adopted the Zasak system).

Of course, governing according to customs has always been the consistent principle of the empire in the newly expanded territory. Not only the system is adapted to local conditions, but even the sub-sections such as official names are different. For example, the Zasak system implemented outside the pass and south of the desert adopts the Qing Dynasty word Zhang Jing, and the Mongolian word Taiji in titles. When it comes to the Western Regions, the word Burke is naturally adopted. In fact, Burke is an official, and the meaning of a leader. Under the Burke system, officials of all sizes are called Burke, such as Tursun, who is the Achimu Burke of Hami.

In the first month of the fifth year of the empire, Lin Junhong received a royal criticism from the emperor and agreed to implement the Burke system in the Kansai Appeasement Zone, but put forward two requirements: one is to keep it confidential for the time being, and the other is to improve the local education and religious system.

The reason for keeping the secret is simple. It can be seen that under the Burke system, the power and resources of the religious forces in Kansai were compressed on a large scale, and there was no political spokesperson. Once the Burke system was made public, Abdulla would probably rebel. On the other hand, the legal basis for the empire to annex Kansai was not so reasonable. The empire inherited Zhu Ming and theoretically inherited everything from Zhu Ming, naturally including territory. But Turpan and Hami were considered Zhu Ming's territory. In history, Daming actually surpassed the Seven Guards of Guansai. It seems that they were ruled by the Seven Guards of the VIsai. In fact, they were appointed as the Mongolian chiefs, and not Turpan and other places. More importantly, the Seven Guards of Kansai were abandoned by Zhu Ming himself, and it was a bit far-fetched to call it the homeland of the Ming Dynasty, so this matter must be settled on the Yarkand Khanate.

As for the improvement of the local religious and educational system, it comes from the emperor's insistence. Li Mingxun knew very well that the biggest failure of the Qing Dynasty's rule over the Western Regions was to allow religious figures like Ah Hun to monopolize all education, which made local religious beliefs increasingly extreme and difficult to undergo secular transformation.

"The Emperor of Heaven and Chengyun, and the imperial edict said that Tursun Maildan, was determined to be loyal and pure, and was rewarded for his contributions to assist King Cheng..."

In the Hami official office, an envoy from the capital was reading the imperial edict, enthroning the titles of the real power lords who were acquitted to Hami and Turpan. The highest was Turson as a second-class earl, and two third-class lords and a group of viscounts and barons. With the titles, they could officially obtain the titles of the real titles from the Lifan Academy.

Because there were no eunuchs in the empire, the matter of promulgation was represented by the attendants' office. There were no attendants around Li Mingxun who didn't know him. After reading the imperial edict, everyone stood up. Lin Junhong took over the imperial edict and asked someone to hold it away. The attendant who sent the imperial edict smiled and said, "Your Highness, Your Majesty has a oral order for you."

"The Emperor, the Holy Lord, Jin'an." Lin Junhong hurriedly knelt down again.

Wu Yifeng coughed lightly, "Well......" Then he followed Li Mingxun's tone and said, "Junhong, you little monkey, secretly wrote letters to the prince, to the queen, and even to the third brother. But he didn't write letters to your godfather. I was very angry and punished you to write a letter of three thousand words. And the raisin you sent me from Turpan has been stolen by the third brother, so you can send some more. In addition, what's the matter I gave you? Why haven't you heard from so long? Your dog's brain won't forget it!"

Wu Yifeng's tone and language were learned from Li Mingxun, and he learned vividly. All the local ministers who were rewarded just now were stunned by the fact that Cao Yu had been with Li Mingxun for several years and had long been used to it. Although the local ministers were surprised by the emperor's "vulgarity", they also heard how close the emperor far away in the capital was to the young prince in front of him.

Lin Junhong thanked En, stood up with a puzzled look on his face and asked, "Lao Wu, what is the emperor talking about?"

Cao Yu and others also surrounded him. If they forgot the great things assigned by the emperor, it would be amazing. Wu Yifeng reminded: "Prince, think about it again. Before coming to the palace, did Your Majesty tell you what to look for?"

Lin Junhong suddenly remembered and slapped his head: "Oh, I'm such a dog-headed person, I'm so forgot!"

Wu Yifeng quickly reminded: "Prince, I didn't say anything. Before I came, the emperor said that I wouldn't tell you."

"I understand, come here, please send the angel to rest. Lao Wu, you go and rest first. I will prepare quickly so that you can go back and submit the service."

In fact, Wu Yifeng is not an outsider. He is Wu Mu's son. After the Duke, the two were very familiar with each other.

"No, there is one thing I can't do. Your Majesty has something to reward you for your hard work and dedication." Wu Yifeng said with a smile. With a wave of his hand, the guard brought a box. When he opened it, he saw a whole box of winter vacation homework. Wu Yifeng said: "The emperor asked to bring this thing here, saying that you should not forget your studies."

Lin Junhong took it over in disappointment, and the guard then took Wu Yifeng to rest. Lin Junhong sat down. Everyone looked at Lin Junhong wanting to know what the emperor had told before the Western Expedition. Lin Junhong asked: "Everyone, do you know the Hami Melon?"

"cantaloupe?"

The group of people shook their heads, Tursun and several vassal ministers looked at each other, and they said they had never heard of it. Lin Junhong said: "The emperor said that Hami has a fruit called Hami melon, which is sweet and delicious. I asked to take some back, but I didn't expect that I forgot about it."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that this was the case, but the local vassal ministers didn't know what the Hami melon was. One of them said, "Maybe it is the name of the Central Plains people to the fruits. I have never heard of the fruits named after the Hami. Tursun Burke, have you heard of the Western Regions and the Central Plains for many years?"

Tursun shook his head slightly: "No, fruits, melons, fruits, etc. are cheap but not easy to store, and they can't make commodities. However, Your Highness, the lower-ranking official is very familiar with the local area and has eaten all kinds of fruits. I don't know what the cantaloupe said is. If you can describe it, we will definitely find the same one and send it to the capital. Please ask Your Majesty to save the truth."

Lin Junhong thought about what Li Mingxun said that day: "The emperor said that the cantaloupe is similar in size to the watermelon, but not that big, very sweet, sweeter than the watermelon, with a thin skin and yellow inside. By the way, there is also the pulp, like the melon, and it is said that there is a grid similar to the luffa pulp on the outer skin, and some are not."

"Your Highness may be talking about Kugong!" A guy rushed to say, and the others also agreed: "Yes, I think Kugong is also Kugong."

Tursun smiled and said, "It should be Kugong, but this is not the season, and it is necessary to pay tribute. Kugong is a local specialty, both Hami and Turpan. Speaking of which, there are also other places on Tianshan South Road, but it is not as sweet as these two places. But everyone, since Your Majesty said it, Kugong will be called Hami Melon in the future."

"Okay, since it is not the season, I wrote in my letter that Tursun, you can do this matter. Remember, not only Kugong, but also any local fruits that are not available in the Central Plains or those that are not as good as the flavor, you should find some and go to the imperial front with the tribute. There must be no mistakes." Lin Junhong ordered.

Li Mingxun only knew that Hami produced Hami melon, but he didn't know that this melon was given the name by Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, otherwise Lin Junhong would not have been busy for so long.

Tuerxun took this task and sent everyone out and returned to attend the military aircraft meeting. There were only a few people in the military aircraft meeting. Lin Junhong took out a letter and circulated it on everyone, saying, "This is a letter from the Sengge of the Junggar tribe. You can read it."

The crowd took it and looked carefully. It turned out to be a letter from Sengge's request for peace. This originated from the reprimand document sent by Lin Junhong to Junggar in the name of the empire. Although Junggar had many actions, he has been a vassal of the empire since the second year of the empire. As a vassal, he had a vassal of the empire without authorization and had sent troops to fight and provoke trouble. Naturally, he could not escape the reprimand.

As early as the empire confirmed the Western Expedition of Yarkand, it was a warning to Sengge, but at that time Sengge did not respond at all. Now the Western Expedition army occupied Hami and Turpan, with strong people and strong horses. It was a foregone conclusion that it intervened in the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains. Sengge did not dare to be slow. In the letter, Sengge first pushed the support of Yarkand Bals Khan and Apakhezhuo to his subordinates, expressing his unawareness, and then hoped to work with the empire to maintain peace on the South Road of Tianshan.

"It's a joke to jointly maintain peace on Tianshan South Road. Old cats are salted fish." Cao Yu was very disdainful of this, and the rest of them were also smiling.

Everyone here knows that annexation of Tianshan South Road was the wish of several generations of Khan of the Junggar. It not only strengthens itself, but also seeks to revenge. After all, during the Abudulla Khan era, Junggar was beaten several times by the Yarkand Khanate.

"With the cooperation of the Junggars, it was much easier to end the civil strife in the Yarkand Khanate. It was a good thing. The key question was how Sengge wanted to "maintain peace together." Lin Junhong hugged his hands and couldn't guess Sengge's idea.

For Lin Junhong, most of the mission of this Western Expedition has been completed. The Western Expedition army actually has two goals. One is to occupy a corner of the Western Regions for the empire, and the other is to solve the civil unrest in Yarkand. The first mission has been exceeded. After all, the goal set at the beginning is only Hami. Now there is not only Hami, but also Turpan. The second mission is much more difficult. It is not that the army cannot defeat the opponent, but if it continues, the war will last for a long time and the military spending will be difficult to control.

For the empire, the Northern Expedition was the most important, and the war in the Western Regions must end in the fifth year of the empire.

Risht responded: "In the usual way of the Junggars, they would hope that after the war, they would station troops on the Tianshan South Road, and that the local regime would be responsible for their expenses, so that the Yarkand Khanate would be the Junggar cow and could be taken to it."

"I can forbid its post-war garrison in the name of the empire." Lin Junhong said with a cold face.

Risht smiled: "Of course, then Sengge will plunder the Tianshan South Road after the war and continue to plunder. This is a military discipline issue. Unless the empire sends troops, it will never be solved. In order to calm the situation, the Yarkand Khan will choose to give the Junggar a large amount of offerings every year. In this way, the Yarkand Khanate is still a cow of the Junggar tribe."

Lin Junhong had no choice but to admit this. Since Sima Yiboke could turn to the empire and "induce wolves into the house", then giving Junggar the "year-old monies" after the war was nothing.

"Okay, Rishit, what do you see?" Lin Junhong asked.

Rishit said: "Your Highness, Junggar is Junggar, Sengge is Sengge. There is not only Sengge who has military power. Chechen Taiji and Zhuotbabatur Taiji are both good choices. You can choose to cooperate with Junggar, but the partner of these two Taijis, so Sengge will not have excessive requirements.

In addition to the Junggar tribe, there are more powerful people on Tianshan North Road, such as Orchitu Khan of the Hoshuote tribe."

Chechnya and Zhuotbabatul were two brothers of Sengge. When his father Batulhun Khan died, he divided the property of his subordinates into two parts, one to the heir Sengge and the other eight sons. This does not mean that Sengge owns half of the Junggar tribes, because it was also divided in this way during his grandfather's time. Sengge had the title of righteousness and received the support of several uncles. He successfully suppressed his brothers, ended the civil strife with the war, and became the great khan of the Junggar. However, Chechnya and Zhuotbabatul also grew stronger in the war and were still the real power lords, just regarded Sengge as the Khan.

Lin Junhong thought for a while and asked Rishit a smile: "Are you disappointed today?"

"Your Highness, I don't understand what you mean." Risht responded in surprise.

Tuerson coughed lightly and reminded: "Your Highness is talking about the title of title."

Risht then realized that helplessness flashed in his eyes, but he couldn't help but sigh: "Your Highness, I am a prisoner. Even if I am your consultant, I am a prisoner."

Risht felt that he was quite unfair. When he surrendered, he had lost control of Turpan City, so he could not say that he had made contributions to the city, but he surrendered voluntarily, but the empire did not even give him a single Lord.

Lin Junhong smiled: "Actually, I didn't write your name on the list of rewards."

"Why!" Risht stood up.

"Don't you understand? If I wrote it, the Lifanyuan would just give you a lord and then someone would take you back to the capital or some other place to put you under house arrest. I wouldn't be able to use you. How great is it now, I can give you more opportunities to make meritorious contributions, such as serving as a mission to the Junggar tribe." Lin Junhong said.

"What should I do when I go to the Junggar tribe?"

Lin Junhong said: "Tell Sengge and let him cut the heads of Bals and Apakhezhuo for me."

"What then?" After waiting for a while, when Lin Junhong was still not speaking, Rishit asked.
