Chongzhen: I am the king of prosperous times

The inheritance of the Ming Dynasty to the present began with Emperor Taizu Gao, more than [-] years ago. Compared with the national system established in the early Ming Dynasty, in fact, there have been major changes in the Ming Dynasty during the Chongzhen Dynasty.

For Emperor Chongzhen, he always wanted to define a legal system in the true sense, realize the real rule of law, and include all the elements of governing the country, involving politics, military, economy, culture, class and other fields. In the fundamental Dafa.

That is the Ming Constitution!
Only by establishing the fundamental law of the Ming Dynasty can the law of the Ming Dynasty be gradually improved. In this way, various forms of power struggle can be limited to a reasonable range.

Xiyuan, Diaoyutai.

"Look at the current chaos between the government and the opposition."

Emperor Chongzhen walked forward with his hands behind his back, with a feeling of emotion on his face, and said to Zhang Tongkai who was accompanying him, "It is obvious that some good decisions or national policies are beneficial to the Ming Dynasty and can see benefits, but in many situations, However, it encountered all kinds of criticism and obstruction.

Regarding these criticisms and obstructions, I know what is going on, they are nothing more than touching their interests, and I don't want them to suffer losses because of these changes.

Does the Qing family think that Daming is always the same?Or is it going to get better?There are only two of us, the monarch and his ministers, and the Qing family doesn't have too many scruples. "

Zhang Tongchang, the great-grandson of Zhang Juzheng, his great-grandfather was a staunch reformer during the Wanli Dynasty, and he was the initiator of the "One Whip" law. How to solve the maladministration, eliminate hidden dangers, and eradicate malignant tumors for the Ming Dynasty at that time? Follow what he thinks is meaningful.

The new deal, no matter in any period, will be opposed by the conservatives. If the current emperor does not approve it, then the road to the new deal is doomed to be extremely difficult.

As expected of Zhang Juzheng's great-grandson.

As far as I know, all of these are destroying the foundation of Daming's rule.

A head who reshaped the fundamental Dafa of Ming Dynasty!
"The Qing family is right."

Zhang Tongchang frowned slightly.

Zhang Tong opened his eyes and raised his hands to salute Emperor Chongzhen, "Since the beginning of Your Majesty's reign, the country has encountered many changes, such as the rebellion of Jianlu in Liaodong, the rebellion of bandits in Shanxi, the rebellion of chieftains in the southwest, and the rebellion in various places." Disasters, government corruption, persistent taxation diseases...

Emperor Chongzhen didn't want to comment too much on what happened in the past, who was right and who was wrong. After all, things have already happened, so it is meaningless to say more.

What the Son of Heaven said was clearly intended to mix up the emperor's ancestral precepts and great edicts. Once this fundamental law is really clarified, it will have a huge impact.

Emperor Chongzhen looked serious, and said loudly: "In the future Ming Dynasty, the legal system that will be defined will revolve around this fundamental law.

Emperor Chongzhen restrained his mind, stepped forward, pulled up Zhang Tongchang who was bowing, and said solemnly: "Da Ming is indeed going to change, and it will be completely changed, but then again, even if you want to change many things, it is extremely difficult. things.

If this is the case, then even if Daming can be rejuvenated, if the fundamental problem cannot be changed, there will still be hidden dangers. "

"I've always thought that a piece of emperor's ancestral instruction and a piece of great edict shouldn't be a single existence." Emperor Chongzhen lifted up the sleeves of his robe and continued.

Including me, the Great Ming Emperor, should also be included.

Putting aside the dispute between imperial power and ministerial power, Zhang Juzheng's reforms are beneficial to the Daming Sheji, and will help Daming survive.

Zhang Tongchang's face changed drastically, and he was surprised. If this is the case, the shock and influence it will cause in the country will far exceed all other events.

very bad.

Seeing Zhang Tongchang's silence for a long time, the Chongzhen Emperor who was walking forward felt emotional in his heart. The Chongzhen Emperor could understand Zhang Tongchang's performance.

Now I have a deep understanding of how much a patriarchal clan system can make national policies that are beneficial to the country face all kinds of unfair treatment. "

Emperor Chongzhen turned around and looked at Zhang Tongchang with a gratified smile on his face.

"I want to take the teachings of the emperor's ancestors as the foundation, and clarify the fundamental law of the Ming Dynasty!"

Instead of starting from the ideological confusion in front of me, it goes back to the beginning of Yuji, and even points out the invasion in the second year of Chongzhen, which also shows that all kinds of things now have traces to follow.

If it wasn't for His Majesty's arbitrariness, and the imperial conquest to suppress the invasion of Jianlu, I'm afraid that the society of Ming Dynasty will suffer serious impact and shake. "

"The reason why the Ming Dynasty has the current problems is that the definition of 'law' is actually relatively vague. Whoever finds it beneficial can take excerpts out of context and then become a weapon of attack.

But many things cannot be looked at from a single angle and level. After all, the world we live in is a complex existence.

Whether it is the ancestral system or the patriarchal clan system, it should not restrict certain groups individually, but should restrict all groups. This is the real fundamental law.

This is not good.

"!!!"

"Your Majesty's meaning..."

"Your family, I know this matter is difficult to handle."

Zhang Tongchang's heart tightened, he looked at Emperor Chongzhen and said.

The Zhang family fell into a slump from then on, and it was not until the second year of Tianqi that the case was truly overturned.

"To change."

Seeing Zhang Tongchang like this, Emperor Chongzhen continued: "Even if it is difficult, there must be a way to deal with this matter, otherwise the change of Ming Dynasty is a deformed change, a change that can be overthrown at any time. That is meaningless to Daming and Sheji.

After all, there are still scruples.

Especially in the second year of Chongzhen, the Jianlu invasion that occurred caused great loss and destruction to the country.

This fundamental law should redefine the preamble, general outline, rights and obligations, and national system. The fundamental law has the highest legal effect and is the basis for enacting other laws. All laws and regulations must not contradict the Constitution. "

If Zhang Tongchang did not have these insights, then Emperor Chongzhen would not have placed some heavy burdens on his shoulders and asked him to help him make a start.

When his great-grandfather was alive, many things he did touched a lot of interests, even including the majesty of the emperor. This also made the public opinion in the court turn quickly after his great-grandfather passed away, and then such things happened.

Just like 'Zhang Wenzhong', he wanted to do something for the Ming Dynasty, but encountered various criticisms and opposition during the period.

Emperor Chongzhen was a realistic person and a forward-looking person. He was obsessed with the past blindly, no matter how much he had, it was doomed to be futile.

Zhang Tongchang hesitated, raised his head slightly, and glanced at the back of Emperor Chongzhen. Even though he had a lot to say in his heart, he didn't know how to say it when the words came to his lips.

Of course, if you want to facilitate this matter, it will definitely not be done overnight. I hope that the Qing family can first spread these thoughts and opinions of mine to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so that more people will recognize this matter.

In everything you do, you must adhere to a principle, treat your friends more and treat your enemies less. Only if this concept is recognized by more people, then you can do well in difficult things Done.

This is not something that can be achieved by one, two, or three people reaching the same consensus. Can the Qing family understand what I mean? "

"I understand."

Zhang Tongchang calmed down, bowed his head and saluted and said: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I know what to do, and I will not rush forward until there is a definite date."
