Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 1606 Holy Will: Ask him.

During the three-day holiday of Longevity Day, government affairs should not be discussed, but rules are dead and people are alive, especially the dozens of ministers discussing government affairs are all wearing crane patches on their chests, and some of them are even wearing scarlet silk Boa clothes, bullfighting, flying fish, etc. are bestowed on you, so the nature of them is different.

In such a situation, even if the emperor came over in person, he would definitely not say that they broke the rules, but could only say, "Everyone who loves you and is loyal to the country, I am very relieved."

Although the emperor sat far away, the throne was the highest after all, and the two tables of the cabinet and the Qiqing began to "whisper each other", so he could clearly understand the purpose.

If it were normal, these six court elders plus the seven ministers of the imperial court would have a total of "Thirteen Taibao". poetry.However, when it comes to writing birthday poems, everyone won’t write a long story—it’s only a few sentences to write a poem, so why don’t you write a Han Yuefu?
What's more, the expressions on the faces of the ministers were not right. They all looked serious, and they all looked as if they were facing a national crisis. They were obviously not talking about a happy topic.

The emperor frowned slightly and observed for a while.From Gao Wushi's continuous verbal battles with Xu Xuemo, Shi Xing, and Wang Xijue, Zhu Yijun guessed that he was discussing "Renewal Post Book" at this time.

But until this time, Zhu Yijun clearly noticed that although Gao Yushi was facing a round of battles with several important ministers, he was always calm and confident.And the minister who launched an offensive against him shut up while talking.

The outcome of the competition can be judged.Zhu Yijun was very pleased with this, and felt relaxed.

But after shi shixing left the field in person, the situation was still a bit wrong.Zhu Yijun noticed sensitively that at this time, Gao Pragmatism seemed to be more of an audience member, and even if he spoke occasionally, the speaking time was very short, and it seemed that he was only asking for certain details.

At the same time, Shen Yuanfu's complexion was not quite right.Zhu Yijun believes that if Mr. Shen is also talking about issues related to "Renewal Station Shu", then judging from the expressions of him and Gao Yushi, it is clear that the situation is already in the upper hand, so why is his face so solemn?
This is obviously unreasonable.

In fact, Zhu Yijun has always been a very smart person. He has learned many ways of thinking under the influence of high pragmatism for many years, and he is especially good at analyzing characters by connecting various information. Therefore, he quickly thought of the incident reported by Jin Yiwei.

That's right, Mr. Shen didn't really argue against pragmatism, but resorted to procrastination tactics, using one major event to suppress another major event. He was forcing pragmatism to weigh which matter is more important, or... ... more urgent.

Zhu Yijun suddenly realized that he didn't even need to think much about how Gao Wushi would choose on this matter.

As Gao Pragmatic's ten-year classmate, he is very aware of Gao Pragmatic's style of work: in peacetime, internal affairs must come first; in war, defeating the enemy must be given priority.

Pragmatically, we will definitely choose to contain the danger of Tumen first!Zhu Yijun was determined.

The evaluation of the Wanli Emperor by later generations is very interesting. If one has only read Yuan Tengfei's books, one will think that Wanli is an out-and-out garbage, a miser, and a saboteur; , will think that Wanli is a mediocre and stupid king; if a person has only read "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", he will think that Wanli is a person who is not brave enough and willing to degenerate; if a person has only read "The Fifteen Years of Wanli" , will think that Wanli is a very complicated, strange, and often contradictory person.

They can be understood, really, every statement can be understood, because what they saw was indeed the performance of Wanli Emperor Zhu Yijun in a certain aspect.

Yuan Tengfei, a history teacher, a vested interest, an out-and-out Song fan, and an out-and-out cynic.He looked at Wanli from the perspective of civil servants and gentry, so Emperor Wanli was really not a good thing.

"History of Ming Dynasty" was supposed to be a reliable history, but because of well-known reasons, any places in this book that are related to certain things are often portrayed maliciously.Especially in the second half of the book, the ugly face of the author and the BBC of later generations are as disgusting as those portrayed in the same mold.

Back then, Mingyue was a literati with humanistic feelings. In the world at that time, there were not many people with humanistic feelings. He happened to be one, which is very rare.He analyzed Wanli from the perspective of human nature. Although limited in space and style, he may not be able to say too much, but he still let his readers realize from his perspective that Wanli is a real life in this world. people.

As a scholar, Huang Renyu put aside his prejudice against people, and interpreted the Wanli Dynasty from the perspective of big history, which is relatively thorough and in-depth.But unfortunately, in the turbulent Wanli Dynasty, even Emperor Wanli himself could hardly tell if he was the protagonist. It is more likely that he is just a background board that makes future generations feel pity, pitiful or even pathetic.

Without highly pragmatic intervention, Emperor Wanli's life would have been a life of struggle against powerful officials, civil officials, and gentry groups.Since there is a struggle, there must be winners and losers.

It's a pity that he has his grandfather's IQ, but not his grandfather's persistence; he has his father's talent in employing people, but not his father's tact and tolerance; .

Therefore, if there is no high pragmatism, Emperor Wanli's life is destined to be a tragedy—even if he is smart enough.

In the first 20 years of his life, he was shrouded in the shadow of Zhang Jiangling. In the shadow of powerful ministers, he was constantly oppressed, growing, and learning, until one day he realized: I am the emperor, and I am the emperor. .

So, he was unwilling, he was resentful, and he endured it.During this time, he was so diligent, studied so hard, and was so good at thinking and making decisions.And all of this is actually just to paralyze that person, to restore the glory of his ancestors, and to be worthy of his identity.

In his sensible world, the feelings for Zhang Jiangling have always been only the feelings of the puppet emperor for the powerful ministers. On the surface he is trembling, but in fact he is full of murderous intentions.

He will not think about whether Zhang Jiangling is a capable minister, because this kind of thinking is not necessary for the emperor.

Zhang Juzheng in history is different from Gao Yushi at this time. Zhang Juzheng can be replaced, but Gao Yushi, at least for now, no one can replace.

What's more, winning Zhang Juzheng, who has passed away, will have no greater impact than winning Gao Yushi at this moment: Zhang Juzheng represents almost only himself, but Gao Yushi represents a powerful group.This group has culture and military, officials and businessmen, and if it moves, it may cause chaos in the world.

The historical Emperor Wanli discovered when he was 20 years old that the shadow over his head had finally dissipated, and he couldn't wait to erase the humiliation and oppression this person brought him, as if this person Never existed.After erasing the evidence of this person's existence, a 20-year-old youth couldn't wait to take over the court, work hard, and revitalize Daming.

Then, he was slapped in the face by the civil official group.The constant struggle with the civil official group made him discover that although he was the emperor, he was useless: he did not have his own team, and the previous team was left to him by that person. But a loner.

What did he use to fight against the huge civil servant group?As long as any of his orders go against the wishes of the civil servants, they will never leave the Forbidden City.

So he was not reconciled, he started to fight, started to quarrel, and started to see-saw with the civil servants endlessly, and finally he found that no one liked him at all.Although no one in the civil official group is far from his opponent, but on the whole, he is far from the entire civil official group's opponent.

So he understood and compromised, it was not he who cleaned everything that existed in that person, but another group of people wanted to clean everything that existed in that person.

His life lost its meaning, and he began to reflect on everything he had done. Since his existence can't change anything, then why does he exist?He was disappointed and failed. He was angry and refused to go to court, and locked himself in confinement.

Since it's the same with me or without me, why do you need me?But life is very long after all, after a long period of depravity, he found that he needed to find some meaning for his existence, after all, he was still the emperor, and he still wanted to do something for Daming and himself.

He summed it up for a long time, and found that the root cause of his failure was that he had neither his own people nor his own money.

Without people, you have no right to speak; without money, you can't do anything in this world.Daming has too many holes, like a bottomless pit, but he still wants to fill it up when he has a goal again.

The ridiculous thing is that the civil official group has become monolithic since that person died—oh, it's not monolithic, but even if it's not monolithic, no one is his own member of Emperor Wanli.

He was not as lucky as his grandfather, because he didn't find another Zhang Cong, he could only find the closest person around him—the eunuch.After so many years of struggle, he has already understood why Daming became like this. He is a smart person, so he wants to change.

It is impossible to directly collect taxes from the common people, it is already very difficult for the common people; the money from the honorable and noble clans is also not in vain, because they may not be the ruling foundation of the Ming Dynasty, but they must be the ruling foundation of the Tian family; then we have to levy the gentry The tax of the landowner, the tax of the landlord, and the tax of the civil servants of the enclosure.

So he invented the salt mine tax supervisor, and he sent his close eunuchs to collect taxes and get money for me. With money, I can wrestle with the civil servants.

The results of it?As a result, the eunuch was beaten to death by the domestic slaves of the gentry, and as a result, the gentry encouraged the domestic slave tenants to cause a civil uprising.

Want to take money from us?Do your Spring and Autumn Dreams!Since ancient times, imperial power has never been lower than the county, your majesty, you have crossed the line!understand?
Then, the civil servants who controlled public opinion began to scold him again, and of course they scolded the eunuch even more.But he still didn't give up, even if no eunuchs were willing to go down, he persisted, promised the eunuchs benefits, saying that since you risked your lives to collect money for me, then we will be free.

Finally someone was willing to go down, seeing his money increasing day by day, he smiled.Although the money collected each time is actually not much, but Daming is big enough, so little can make more.When I have money, I will have the right to speak, I can wrestle with civil servants, and I can work hard to revitalize Daming!
But his luck still seems to be not very good. He fought several big battles in a row and spent more than half of his hard-earned money. Although the money is still increasing gradually, it is a pity that he is also getting old.And then, he died, and his son listened to the fools of the ministers, spent most of his life savings in less than a month... and then his son died.

Looking back on his life, the liquidation of Zhang Juzheng was said to be revenge for kindness, but as the emperor, where did Zhang Juzheng's "favor" to him come from?Since ancient times, kindness comes from above and is given to the bottom, how can it be said that kindness from the bottom is turned back to the top!

If there is, it means that in the previous period of time, it was upside down and monarchs and ministers changed positions. Which emperor can really endure this birdishness!
The collection of mining tax has dug the ancestral grave of the civil official group, so the civil official group still scolded him until the Qing Dynasty, and even concocted the theology that "Ming died in Wanli"-stop making trouble, please?Without Wanli's money to fight the war, and the complete victory of the three major conquests continued the majesty of the Ming Dynasty. It is hard to say whether the Ming Dynasty can have the Taichang Dynasty, let alone the Apocalypse and Chongzhen!

The problem with Wanli is that he is not as stubborn as his grandfather, who is as smelly and hard as a stone in a latrine, and he is not as indifferent to personal honor and disgrace as his father is. What's more, he has never found a Zhang Cong and Gao Gong of his own.

However, none of these problems are due to his lack of wisdom, but now he has covered all of the above problems because of the appearance of high pragmatism.

He is not as tough as Jiajing, but Gao Yushi has enough skills to solve various intractable diseases.The civil servant group that he couldn't deal with was now divided into three factions by Gao Yushi, and then he held one faction, attacked the other faction, and stabilized the other faction. The political situation in the court seemed to be fiercely contested, but the final decision was in the hands of the emperor.

He is not as forbearing as Long Qing, but Gao Yushi is not as stubborn and straightforward as Gao Gong.He and Gao Yushi are both smart people and have been classmates for many years. The two tested each other's bottom line and quickly reached a compromise.From then on, you will be your sage king, and I will be my virtuous minister, and everyone will help each other and prosper together. How beautiful it is to create an eternal story!
Zhu Yijun breathed out lightly, turned his head to look at the hourglass, waved to Chen Ju who was waiting on the side, called him over and said: "After the banquet is over, you send someone to see Shishi, and Jin Yiwei Give him all the information you hand in. Then you tell him... just tell me what I mean, what to do next, and come up with an idea earlier. In addition, if he thinks that this matter will end in a war, let him arrange how to fight Well—but it’s best to let Zhou Yong speak up.”

"Yes, my lord, I understand." Chen Ju didn't call himself a slave this time, because it was a political matter, so he used "chen", but he added another question: "Uh, my lord...will we fight this battle?" Do you ask Da Situ all? Do you have anything to explain?"

Well, in fact, Chen Ju didn't ask the emperor "Is there anything I want to explain", but "Is there anything I want to hint"-it's just the eunuch's words.

But Zhu Yijun just smiled, shook his head and said: "I have nothing to explain. These things, I will definitely consider them more carefully than I do. You just have to talk."

"Yes, my lord." Chen Ju bowed again to accept the order.
