After five years of teaching support, Daming became an empire on which the sun never sets.

Chapter 378 The Only Right Way
"In history, there is really an emperor who did not abuse the people, or was unwilling to abuse the people in his heart, and that was the early Zhu Yuanzhang." Qin Yu said.

"Sir, do you think so highly of Zhu Yuanzhang?" Zhu Yuanzhang was pleasantly surprised. "Did you see him in person?"

Although he knew that Qin Yu had always had a high opinion of him, he was delighted to hear that Qin Yu said that he was the only emperor who did not abuse the people, and felt that he was his confidant.

"I can't travel back to ancient times, but I can see Zhu Yuanzhang?" Qin Yu smiled, "But I can analyze it."

"The reason is very simple. You can imagine from Emperor Zhu's miserable experience before he succeeded. He will not treat the people too badly. Will he impose the hardships he has suffered in the past on the people of the Ming Dynasty he founded?"

"He's not a psychopath."

"Having personally experienced the many sufferings of the people, you will treat the people better after you succeed."

"He knows what the people need most and what they hate the most, so his regulations on punishing corrupt officials are the most in the history of emperors. To be honest, as long as corrupt officials are severely punished, people's lives will not be bad."

"Because those people directly harmed the people."

"Secondly, those who scolded Zhu Yuanzhang for killing heroes, said that the Hu Weiyong case killed tens of thousands of people, and the Lanyu case killed tens of thousands more. Therefore, they judge that Zhu Yuanzhang is not a good person. Such people are stupid."

"These people's ideas are actually skewed to the nobles like Hu Weiyong and Lan Yu."

"It's a very strange thing for me to be an ordinary person, but to actually empathize with the top nobles."

"Although the history was written by the victors, the history of the Ming Dynasty was even compiled by the Qing Dynasty. There are many places that discredit the Ming Dynasty. But we cleared away the heavy fog of history and thought with our simplest emotions. We also know that Zhu Yuanzhang could not abuse the people. "

"There is an unofficial history saying that Zhu Yuanzhang divided the people into four classes, saying that beggars are low-class people. It is impossible to think about it with your knees. Zhu Yuanzhang himself has been a beggar and he will belittle his profession?"

"Some people say that the Yuan Dynasty was actually the most stable. These people have bad consciences."

"He turned a blind eye to the tragic situation of the people at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. Zhu Yuanzhang's family was dying, and they couldn't see it either."

"We deeply agree with Mr. Qin's words." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "But with Emperor Zhu's mind, he wouldn't care about those idiots' nonsense at all. If he cared, he wouldn't be so decisive in attacking corrupt officials."

"That's right!" Qin Yu said, "People can be as humble as ants, but they can't be distorted."

"By the way, why did you say Zhu Yuanzhang in the early stage?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

"Because later Zhu Yuanzhang was the emperor for a long time, he was bewitched by some great Confucianists, and he also abused the people for his own great Ming Dynasty." Qin Yu said, "But he can't blame him, after all, Kyushu was still ruled by Confucianism at that time."

Don't worry, we won't be bewitched by those Confucians. After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to say that Confucianism has been destroyed by us.

And we now know that the only correct way to let the great Ming Dynasty be passed down from generation to generation is to let the common people live a good life.

The so-called art of the emperor and the art of controlling the people actually pushed the dynasty to its demise.

"By the way, sir, apart from those emperors Cao Rui and the Sima family who wanted to practice the art of controlling the people because of their injustice, why did other emperors in history do this?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

"They are also guilty, and they are not confident." Qin Yu said, "The reason they are guilty is that they know that they cannot give the people a stable life."

"Most emperors in history relied on the support of the scholar-official class to secure the throne. Therefore, many emperors in history have put forward the idea of ​​'sharing the world with the scholar-bureaucrats'."

"These scholar-bureaucrats themselves are the opposite of ordinary people."

"They are the ones who harm the people personally, and they are the ones who abuse the people at the forefront."

"The nature of the scholar-bureaucrat class determines that they will always be the opposite of the interests of the people. To give a simple example, the landlord, if the landlord does not squeeze the tenants, the landlord will not be able to get rich."

"Those emperors were guilty because they knew that they could not move the interests of the scholar-bureaucrats and were unable to fight for the interests of the people at the bottom. That's why they colluded with the scholar-bureaucrats to deal with ordinary ordinary people."

"In their eyes, ordinary people are not human beings at all, but animals they raise."

"In the eyes of those emperors, ordinary people are not even their people, but the scholar-bureaucrat class."

"That's why many emperors formed a community of interests with the scholar-bureaucrats, and the two jointly bullied the common people. Instead of forming a community of interests with hundreds of millions of people to target the scholar-bureaucrats."

"In the eyes of the emperor, ordinary people with ordinary hair are too weak to make any big waves. And once the literati and bureaucrats unite against him, his throne will be in danger."

"Hearing what Mr. said, their actions don't seem to be stupid." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Because if you speak for the common people in the world, you will offend the scholar-bureaucrat class, and it will affect his country."

"Why aren't you stupid?" Qin Yu said, "Could it be that the power of the common people is not as good as that of a few scholar-bureaucrats?"

"As long as they use the right method, they can completely eliminate those scholar-bureaucrats without bloodshed."

"And history has proved countless times that a dynasty that forms a community of interests with scholar-bureaucrats will not last long at all. Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing, which dynasty has a lifespan of more than 300 years?"

"The Wuhu, Yuan Dynasty, and Qing Dynasty, these alien races entered the Central Plains, which proves that their actions not only harmed their dynasty, but even harmed the entire Han family."

"So the only correct way for the ancient feudal dynasties to live longer than 300 years is to form a community of interests with the common people, rather than colluding with the scholar-bureaucrats to harm the common people."

"Sir, you are right!" Zhu Yuanzhang said.

When he became emperor, he did not rely on scholar-bureaucrats, so he dared to speak for the people of the world, and dared to disregard the interests of the scholar-official class.Those emperors like Li Er Song Taizu didn't dare to do this at all.

Li Shimin Song Taizu did not dare to speak for the people at the bottom and violated the interests of the aristocratic class, let alone the later kings of other dynasties.

"So, the feudal aristocratic class is the biggest enemy of the dynasty and the thousands of people, and even the entire nation." Qin Yu said, "Many dynasties were established, and by the time of the second emperor, the scholar-bureaucrat class had grown so strong that the emperor could not move. the point."

"Mr. Qin is very good!" Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help clapping his hands and applauding.

Why did he kill those heroes?
