Chongzhen: I am the king of prosperous times

The world is cruel. In a certain period of time, in a certain region, no matter how noble your birth is, you may not be able to overwhelm everyone.

Is Zong Fan very powerful?

The most indispensable thing in the Ming Dynasty is the suzerain vassal.

Are the officials great?

What Ming Dynasty lacked most were officials.

In the centralized and unified feudal dynasty, once a large number of privileged groups breed between the upper and lower levels, it represents the hidden danger of instability and turmoil, which will threaten the dynasty's rule at all times.

No one knows when it will erupt.

When it will appear is unknown.

Why is this so?
The reason is simple, it's all about profit.

The right to control resources is something that the ruling classes, large and small, are unwilling to give up easily. This is the foundation of their livelihood.

When the war in the Liaodong area began to rage in full swing, the provinces in the south of the Yangtze River thousands of miles away also followed suit.

The process of reform is bound to be difficult and diverse. Any form of redistribution of interests and resources will induce many problems and turmoil.

Especially in this area of ​​Jiangnan provinces, if you look around, you can really say that there are rebels everywhere. It really is getting more and more interesting. "

"If you are dissatisfied with me or the country, you can speak it out. I really want to hear your true thoughts."

Looking at the ministers who were still arguing, Emperor Chongzhen said angrily, "Enough is enough, you have been arguing until now, one by one, who can analyze the reason why this Japanese riot happened?
Affected by the Japanese invasion, Nanzhili and the coastal areas of Zhejiang were seriously damaged. Who can see what problems exist in the interior of my Ming Dynasty? "

So they began to think of ways to divert conflicts and attention, trying to pass an incident that would cause panic among the world, and force the Jiangnan assassination case under review not to continue.

The aloof Emperor Ming seems to hold the greatest power, but is this really the case?
What Zhu Yujian experienced and faced, compared with Emperor Chongzhen who was far away in the Forbidden City, it was really insignificant.

The hardest thing in this world to do is empathize.

Empathy, so that a group of privileged vested interest groups, no matter what field they are in, are unwilling to lose the interests they have mastered.

Even if the Jianlu Eight Banners were killed by Emperor Chongzhen so that Daming would not be replaced by Jianlu, there might be other six banners, other nine banners, to replace the Jianlu Eight Banners to overthrow the rule of Ming!

The atmosphere in Qianqing Palace was very depressing.

Xu Guangqi, Wen Tiren, Bi Ziyan, Huang Liji, Yang Wenyue, Yang Sichang and other ministers showed different expressions, you look at me, I look at you, as for the quarrel just now, they all know that the matter they are arguing about has changed direction.

"I called you here to discuss the Japanese invasion, not to insinuate and get involved in other matters." Emperor Chongzhen's eyes were cold and stern, he glanced at all the officials in front of him, and took an extra look at Wen Tiren and the others, and said coldly.

"Japanese rebellion? Could it be that in Zhuqing's mind, he really thought that the commotion in Nanzhili and the coastal areas of Zhejiang was really caused by the Japanese rebellion?"

But if this phenomenon is not cured and eradicated, then for Daming whose foundations have been severely damaged, sooner or later the country will be overthrown.

Japanese chaos?

Some people can't sit still!
I feel that if the country continues to investigate like this, they will be found sooner or later. Some of these people may be any of you, or anyone in the court, or anyone in the local area.

Once there is any form of reform at the state level, if you want to redistribute benefits and redistribute resources, a serious crisis will erupt.

Emperor Chongzhen's face was gloomy, and he sat firmly on the dragon chair. The ministers of the cabinet, the military aircraft department, and the Ministry of war launched a fierce debate on what happened in the south of the Yangtze River.

The reason why Emperor Chongzhen could make this conclusion was that the coastal areas of the Jiangnan provinces had more serious invasions by Japanese invaders, at least that's what the local authorities reported.

"Da Ming's confidant's troubles have never been the rampant construction of the Eight Banners, let alone the rebellious bandit forces!"

Looking at the quarreling ministers, a cold light flashed across Emperor Chongzhen's eyes, and he thought to himself: "Da Ming's confidant's trouble is the ever-growing privileged group. They are like moths attached to Da Ming's body, constantly sucking his spirit. Blood vitality.

Bullshit!

This situation was foreseen by Emperor Chongzhen at the beginning.

Facing the gazes of the crowd, Emperor Chongzhen picked up the memorial on the imperial case, his eyes were stern, and he asked: "Don't you think it's strange? After the assassination in the south of the Yangtze River appeared, the imperial court sent imperial envoys to investigate the case. During the investigation, various matters related to the assassination case progressed very slowly, but in other places, many problems were found.

Japanese chaos! ?
It's so ridiculous!
This is not a Japanese rebellion, it is clearly a rebellion by bandits. I feel that I don’t know the situation on Wajima, and that the court doesn’t know the situation overseas, so I can use this to provoke trouble. "

There is no doubt about it.

The Japanese invasion caused serious damage to southern Zhili and the coastal areas of Zhejiang. Emperor Chongzhen could see the authenticity of this urgent report at a glance.

As he said that, Emperor Chongzhen slammed the memorial in anger, the voice was so loud that all the people gathered in the hall fell to their knees on the ground, they all knew that the emperor was angry.

What Zhu Yujian faced was only the things that he had to face in a certain area of ​​Ming Dynasty, but what Emperor Chongzhen had to face was the things that he had to face in the entire Ming Dynasty.

The volume of the two is not on the same level at all.

Emperor Chongzhen could understand why those groups with vested interests would retaliate in various ways. After all, once the vested interests were damaged, it would affect everything they enjoyed.

"Since there are some people here who want to challenge me, want to fight me in the ring, that's fine, I'll just have fun with them."

Emperor Chongzhen glanced at the ministers in front of him, and said loudly: "The people in the Military Aircraft Department stay here, everyone else should go back and perform their duties. Daming will not be overwhelmed by a war that is disguised as Japanese rebellion, but is actually a local rebellion." In this battle, I want to let some people know that the imperial court is not so weak."

"Think twice, Your Majesty."

When Xu Guangqi heard the words, he hurriedly bowed and said: "For the imperial court, it is not suitable to open..."

"The Ministry of Internal Affairs fully supports all the expenditures for the suppression of the Japanese rebellion." Emperor Chongzhen glanced at Xu Guangqi, and interrupted: "If I don't scare them and disable them, then the future There will never be peace in the coastal areas of the Ming Dynasty. Who dares to discuss this matter, depose officials, seize fame, and all be exiled to Dongjiang Town and Dongfan Town!"
