Chongzhen's open life

Chapter 220 Situation

text
Zhu Youjian has a very good impression of Xu Guangqi. This kind of official looks like a hard-working official. He is also a decent official in history. Don't think too much, just use it boldly!

And Xu Guangqi has a good impression of Zhu Youjian, except that even he has heard of this money-loving side, but with the financial situation of the Ming Dynasty, it is no wonder that this man is so obsessed with money.

After all, no one would want to, it's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice!
If you have no money in your hand, no matter whether you are an individual or a country, you will have no confidence.

Now since he ascended the throne, he has ransacked his family and wiped out his family all the way, especially this time, where the eight major merchant families in Shanxi heard that the property that was transported to Beijing was all truckloads, which is simply incalculable!

Presumably with these properties as confidence, I can have sufficient money to support my various ideas after joining the cabinet!
Thinking of this, Xu Guangqi suddenly showed a longing smile on his wrinkled old face.

The two monarchs and ministers looked at each other at the same time and showed bright smiles!

With the first impression, the next step is to compare!
Zhu Youjian suppressed the smile on his face, returned to the desk, sat down, looked at Xu Guangqi and asked: "I heard that Xu Zixian is a great talent!

Today, it turns out that he is a talented person!
I just don't know if it's just an appearance or a real talent?
What is Xu Aiqing's opinion on the current situation in the imperial court? "

As soon as Xu Guangqi heard it, he knew that this was the new king's test for himself. Even though he cheered up, he first thought carefully and organized his words before carefully and slowly replied: "Your Majesty, I think that now I am Your situation seems to be stable, but in fact, you have internal and external troubles, and you are in a precarious situation. If you don’t make changes soon, the dynasty’s overthrow may be at hand!”

As soon as Xu Guangqi said this, Zhu Youjian hadn't said anything, but Wang Chengen, who was standing behind Zhu Youjian, couldn't help jumping out and yelling loudly!

"Bold! Master Xu, my Ming Dynasty will last for thousands of years. When it comes time to overthrow, don't scare me!"

No wonder Wang Chengen is so excited. I knew that in the feudal era, the most taboo thing for rulers is that you say that his rule is going to be over. Even if you know it is true, you can't say it.

From Xu Guangqi's straightforward words, Zhu Youjian suddenly understood why his predecessor did not reuse him even if he was appointed as a second assistant in history, and most of the time he was just used as a decoration!
This old man's personality is too straightforward, he doesn't know how to beat around the bush, and his words are too easy to offend people. It would be strange if this kind of personality can be mixed in the officialdom. Even if the people in power know that what you said is right, you just say it so directly When you come out, you don't even give the person in power a face to meet. It's no wonder he waits to see you!
You must know that the predecessor was a master who wanted to save face. It is really a miracle that Xu Guangqi survived to the end of his life without being cut off by his predecessor in a fit of anger!

Zhu Youjian waved his hand to stop the impulsive Wang Chengen: "It's okay, I'm not such a narrow-minded person, let Xu Aiqing say it.

Since he dared to say that, I also believe that he must have a reason to convince me.

Xu Aiqing, is what I said right? "

In fact, after Xu Guangqi said this, he regretted it a little. He has always known his faults. He speaks too straight, his temper is too straight, and he can't tolerate half-bend, so he has ups and downs in the officialdom several times.

But he just can't get rid of this problem!
He is such a person, with such a personality, it is even more difficult for you to make him beat around the bush, and he is not willing to change.

But after all, today is the first day I see Xinjun. If I offend Xinjun again because of my blunt words, and Xinjun has a bad impression of me, then I may not be able to display my ambitions in the future. It's not too young, if you delay any longer, you really won't have a chance...

Fortunately, the new king is not a narrow-minded person, which made Xu Guangqi heaved a sigh of relief. After listening to the new king's words, he nodded and explained: "Your Majesty, everything I said is true. Speaking from the bottom of my heart, there is no half adulteration!
Although the situation in my Ming Dynasty seems to be stable now, in fact it has already been undercurrents. Although the eunuch party was suppressed because of His Majesty's ascension to the throne, the emperor has supported Huang Shoufu and Jiangsu and Zhejiang parties to check and balance each other. It seems to be stable, but in fact it is in The Donglin Party, which has been secretly hoping to return to the ruling court, has been making small moves to watch over it. As long as the fragile balance of the court is broken, it will pounce on it and bite the Donglin Party back to the court. Church!

I know, Your Majesty, you will definitely say, if you specifically target the Donglin Party and don't let people belonging to the Donglin Party enter the court, wouldn't it be all right?

But in fact, it is not that simple. The Donglin Party has gone through three dynasties for more than 32 years since the 20nd year of Wanli. The resources and background it wants to grasp are unimaginable. Is the person from the party of the Donglin Party the secret seed planted by the Donglin Party?
Maybe the blindly non-partisan officials we accidentally promoted today were nothing at first, but at a certain important moment, they suddenly revealed that they belonged to the Donglin Party. The veterans are not surprised by this result. How many people are lurking in the court today? No one knows that the members of the Donglin Party are waiting for an opportunity.

This is just the court, which belongs to internal troubles, let's talk about foreign troubles!

The current situation on the border, aside from the coastal areas, although there are pirate attacks, they are harmless and will not cause any major disasters.

The southwestern chieftains have been reforming their native lands since the Wanli World War I. Up to now, they have settled down a lot, and there have been no major disturbances.

On the Mobei Grassland, Lin Dan Khan, the most powerful of the Mongols, is now on his way to the west, and he has no time to mess with me. Everything seems to be stable, but the Jurchens in Liaodong are an existence that cannot be ignored , Their existence has now become the biggest hidden danger threatening our border!
Since Nurhachi raised his troops, these Jurchens have been causing trouble for Daming in Liaodong, and even took Shenyang and renamed it Shengjing!
Although Jin seemed to have calmed down after the First Battle of Ningjin in May, and did nothing more, as if he was licking his wounds, the old minister could see from the civil uprisings that broke out in several places not long ago that the Jurchens seem to be There is a shortage of food, and that means war is coming!

I hope that His Majesty will make preparations for this point, this time the Jurchens may go all out!Otherwise they will die! "

Zhu Youjian nodded when he heard the words, and said to himself: "Don't worry about this, Aiqing, I have also guessed, and I have already figured out a way to deal with it.

It's fine if the Jurchens don't come, but if they dare to come, I will definitely let them come and go!I regret coming into this world! "

Hearing that Zhu Youjian had been prepared, Xu Guangqi was relieved immediately.

Zhuo continued: "Since His Majesty is already prepared, the old minister will not say much.

There is one thing that your Majesty may not know. According to the research of the old minister, the climate in the whole world of our Ming Dynasty is in an extremely abnormal state. In the next ten years or so, natural disasters will continue. If the court does not make arrangements early, it may lead to Disaster! "

Xu Guangqi's words immediately surprised Zhu Youjian. He only knew about the Little Ice Age because he came from later generations, and Xu Guangqi really deserved to be a great scientist in the late Ming Dynasty. And give yourself a warning, this is really awesome!

ps. The second update!
I wish you all a happy Dragon Boat Festival!

Happy Dragon Boat Festival!
