Daming Jingtai: I am the eternal benevolent king

Chapter 462: The War Begins: Laughter and General Zhengde ()

Hongzhi Great Depression.

In fact, there is another way to save the market, which is to take out the old emperor's inheritance and give money to the people!
First, calm the mood, and then the court will pay for subsidies to restore order to the market.

But don't forget.

Zhu Youyi's purpose of blowing up the bubble is to make money.

Let him take out the money he put in his pocket and spend it all.

Isn't that a disease?

If he had this kind of mind, he would never put the money in his pocket. It would have been better if he had taken it out a few years ago. He would never have had the idea of ​​​​the old emperor's inheritance.

To take a step back, even if he takes it out, will those powerful people who want money be willing to take it out?

They are not dedicated people, so why should they contribute to the whole society? Are you sick?

Therefore, there is no solution to the Great Depression.

Zhu Youyi is different from his grandfather and father. He used to pretend to be a benevolent king with the world in mind, but that was just for his grandfather and father.

After he ascended the throne, no one above him cared about him, so of course he let himself go.

In fact, there is another reason why he wants money.

Even though he had eleven sons, he had no land to divide among them.

He had previously thought about allocating some land from the Ming Dynasty to his sons, but Zhu Qiyu and Zhu Jianjian were so cruel that they burned themselves to death.

He didn't dare to seal those places to his sons. He would probably die suddenly tomorrow if he took them out.

If you can't give a fief, just leave more money.

As a result, making money was out of control. Making money was addictive.

The more you earn, the less willing you are to spend it.

However, this is not the case for the prince Zhu Houying. Zhu Youying is more opposed to Zhu Youyi's approach of disregarding the common people. He always believes that the emperor has responsibility, not pleasure.

In recent years, he and Zhu Youyi have not had a good relationship.

Zhu Youyi couldn't depose him, because he was the future emperor referred to by the old emperor.

Besides, he is the eldest son.

He is quite famous in the court.

He could bring his courtiers together to collect money, but he still thought too much if he wanted to bring his courtiers in exchange for the prince.

It was already known to everyone that the emperor and the prince were at odds.

The two disagreed and often quarreled.

In the thirteenth year of Hongzhi's reign, Zhu Youyi had a brain attack and actually wanted to resume the kneeling ceremony and let everyone in the world continue to kneel.

He was almost sprayed to death by officials.

If it weren't for the fact that you brought us to make money, we would have killed you.

Do you think everyone is willing to be a slave?
This is not the Qing Dynasty!

Don't think that officials are so willing to kneel, even though the officials below also kneel to them, and the people also kneel to them.

But don’t forget, everyone comes up from the bottom, and they all come up on their knees, from young to old.

Now you don’t have to kneel anymore, who wouldn’t be happy?

Therefore, when Jingtai Dynasty abolished the kneeling ceremony for Zhu Qiyu, the most supportive people were the civil servants. Because of this incident, in the thirteenth year of Hongzhi, the civil servants almost sent Zhu Qiyu directly to the Confucius Temple to be enshrined.

Look at Grandpa You, and then look at you.

Zhu Qiyu abolished the kneeling ceremony, and only knelt at the imperial meeting and bowed to the emperor on a regular basis.

There were only two people kneeling, the emperor and the prince.

Never kneel to other people.

But the etiquette must be performed and the etiquette must not be discarded.

There are many types of etiquette, including handshakes, fist-cups, bows, etc. Different etiquettes are used in different occasions. The etiquette is also simple, which shows that we are a country of etiquette.

Kneel down to heaven and earth, kneel to the emperor, kneel to your ancestors, kneel to your parents, that's all.

In the thirteenth year of Hongzhi, when Zhu Youyi went to the Chang Dynasty, he wanted the courtiers to kneel down to him, but the courtiers ignored him.

Zhu Youyi was so angry that he did not go to the morning court for several days.

The censor pointed his nose at him and scolded him, forcing him to go to court.

There are even voices among the people saying that if you don't go to court, you should abdicate, and don't occupy the manhole without shitting.

Don't think that Zhu Youyi can completely control public opinion by controlling it.

It took the old emperor seventy years to relax public opinion, twenty-one years of the Chenghua Dynasty, and thirteen years of the Hongzhi Dynasty.

It’s been a hundred years since public opinion became free!
This kind of thinking has been deeply ingrained. This is the soul that Zhu Qiyu injected into this nation.

Why should we shut up?

Just shut up and we can scold you.

With Zhu Youyi's comparison, Zhu Jianjian's reputation has been rising. Now everyone knows that Emperor Xianzong's success is all due to the support of his peers.

The nineteenth year of Hongzhi.

The world entered the greatest depression in history.

There was one day when the number of unemployed people in the Ming Dynasty reached 120 million, which shocked the world.

Folk memorials and memorials were transmitted to the central government like snow flakes. Zhu Youyi was dumbfounded. Is the crisis like this?
It really is.

Starting from the 15th year of Hongzhi, one industry after another collapsed. The imperial court was reluctant to spend money to rescue the market and only knew how to postpone the crisis.

By the 16th year of Hongzhi, some state-owned enterprises had begun to close down.

The seventeenth year of Hongzhi was even more terrible. The largest imperial companies collapsed and the number of unemployed people was as high as hundreds of thousands. There were also a large number of energy companies that collapsed, and the number of unemployed people was hundreds of thousands and hundreds of thousands.

For three whole years, the court did not introduce timely rescue measures.

Emperor Zhu Youyi was still indulging in sexual pleasure.

The best opportunity to rescue the market was missed.

By the 18th year of Hongzhi's reign, it was no longer the collapse of one state-owned enterprise, but hundreds or thousands of them.

Countless people are losing their jobs, too many to count.

People all over the world are blaming the emperor, why don't we rescue the market? How long will we be in hell?
Modern people have experienced the famine of the Chenghua Dynasty and the extreme glory of the early Hongzhi Dynasty. Suddenly, the glory fell off a cliff, and everyone went crazy.

The most terrible thing is unemployment.

can not find a job.

People of Ming Dynasty are not in the habit of saving money, and they also like to spend ahead of time, because the economy is good, everyone is making money, and the future is bright.

So the richer you are, the crazier you are and the more debt you have.

It doesn’t matter if I spend tomorrow’s money, because our company is very stable, whether it is a state-owned enterprise, a royal enterprise, or a private enterprise. The salary is rising every year, and the benefits are increasing every year. Even if I want to change jobs, there are many companies that want me.

No one has a sense of worry, and there is no need to have a sense of worry.

There were financial crises before, but the impact on Ming Dynasty was very small. Ming Dynasty just blew the crisis and blew it to the world, and it was shared by tens of billions of people around the world.

We are used to living like this, who would worry about tomorrow?
Suddenly, the Ming Dynasty collapsed.

The court didn't even dare to look at the number of unemployed people. It was so many that it was shocking.

The whole street cried.

In the 18th year of Hongzhi's reign, the imperial court did not fail to rescue the market. It also invested money to rescue the market. However, many industries were in ruins and collapsed suddenly, without even a chance to save them.

All said and done, it was too late to save him.

Zhu Houyong and Zhu Youyi quarreled, believing that the Ming Dynasty inflated the bubble and caused the crisis to sweep the world. As early as the thirteenth year of Hongzhi, they should have actively prepared and spent money to rescue the market.

Zhu Youyi slapped Zhu Hooyong and told him to get out.

By the 18th year of Hongzhi, the crisis had penetrated deep into the bones, and you rescued the market.

Also put out some drizzle, it can save the day.

In the 19th year of Hongzhi's reign, Zhu Youyi suffered a stroke and was unable to govern at all.

The people hated Emperor Hongzhi to the extreme.

Scholars all over the world generally believe that the decline of the Ming Dynasty was due to his greed and inaction!
The prosperous age of Jingtai created by Shizu and the prosperous age of Chenghua continued by Xianzong fell sharply in the Hongzhi Dynasty.

He, Zhu Youyi, is the biggest sinner in Ming Dynasty!

In November of the nineteenth year of Hongzhi, Zhu Youyi died in Qianqing Palace.

He left the mess to Prince Zhu Hooying.

Zhu Houying gritted his teeth and gave him the temple name Xiaozong and a posthumous title to respect the emperor.

After his death, he was buried in the capital, euphemistically saying that he wanted to rule the capital forever.

Such an emperor who was hated by the people has gained a great reputation in the history books. It is written in the history books that he promoted Zhongxing.

Emperor Xiaozong of the Ming Dynasty improved and innovated the ancestral system, eliminated all the bad policies of the previous dynasties, and comprehensively implemented the New Deal. Under his leadership, Hongzhi's monarchs and ministers handled various political issues better and created a "ZTE" situation.

Laughing loudly, right?
Zhu Houying ascended the throne, with the reign title Zhengde.

The first thing he did when he took the throne was to save the market.

He did not follow Zhu Youyi's last words and distribute the royal family property to his younger brothers. Instead, he used the old man's legacy to save the market.

His brothers hated him.

Zhu Houting once again forced the powerful to withdraw money from the bank and invest in industry, forcing everyone to invest in industry.

The powerful people in the court hated him.

In the first year of Zhengde, the imperial court formally rescued the market for the first time.

Really spend tens of billions of dollars to save the market.

Zhu Hooyong said directly that this money was the inheritance of Emperor Shizu. Emperor Shizu said back then that this money was for the use of all people in the world. Now this money is used to save the market and restore market order. It should be used as it should.

By the third year of Zhengde, the financial crisis had been alleviated.

However, public opinion cursed Zhu Houying to death, and Emperor Zhengde directly turned into a faint emperor, while Emperor Hongzhi suddenly transformed into a wise emperor.

No one believed in Hongzhi ZTE three years ago, but now they have some confidence. Everyone begins to believe that Zhu Youyi is a good emperor.

Just like the Zhengtong Emperor: Yingzong's life was not glorious. He favored evil villains, lost battles, served as prisoners, prisoners, and killed loyal ministers. To say that he was a good emperor, you really don't even believe it. But he's a good guy. But facts have proven that good people cannot be good emperors.

Oh, he's a good guy.

Where is Zhu Youyi?

The financial crisis he created caused the royal assets to skyrocket. In order to pave the way for his other sons, he spared no effort to steal national assets.

In order to gain a good reputation, he brought everyone together to collect money.

He deceived more than 10 billion people around the world, and in the Zhengde Dynasty, he became a good emperor.

He also commented on him this way: He was a good emperor and a good man.

Oh.

Those who work are bad guys, and those who don't work and let themselves go are good emperors.

What kind of logic is this? The key is that people still believe it.

Zhu Houyong was also stunned.

He is obviously rescuing the market. With his efforts, Ming Dynasty's financial market has stabilized, the currency market has stabilized, production order is recovering, and the market prospects are getting better...

Everything is going in a good direction, so why has his father become a good guy and he has become a bad guy?

He got it.

It turns out that public opinion is in the hands of officials.

Zhu Youyi can lead them to make money, so Zhu Youyi is a good emperor.

As for Zhu Houying, he forced them to pay, so Zhu Houying is the bad guy.

At this moment, he also understood.

Why did the old emperor want to give the power of public opinion to the people?

Only among the people can you hear the true voice.

Only among the people can the power of civil servants be weakened.

Only among the people can the emperor do whatever he wants.

Only then did Zhu Houyong realize how wise Emperor Shizu was.

However, a good hand was beaten to pieces by his father.

Zhu Youyi was not like this when he was young. He became like this when he got older. After becoming the emperor, he let himself go even more. For the sake of his posthumous reputation, he brought his courtiers to collect money, and there was no one left.

The only thing he did well was that he did not lose his imperial power.

He didn't give up the imperial power stupidly. This was much better than laughing loudly and giving up the imperial power. Could he not be a good person or a good emperor?

The domestic crisis is like this.

How can it be better abroad?

The Great Depression, which lasted for ten years, drained the world of energy.

In the fourth year of Zhengde, a war broke out between the Liao Kingdom and South Korea over Turkey.

The Sui Kingdom and the Wei Kingdom (Babylonian Empire) went to war.

The world is in chaos, and war is the only way to alleviate the depression.

Moreover, three more years have passed since the twenty years Zhu Jianji mentioned. The world has been engaged in energy competition and arms race for twenty-three years, and is fully prepared for war.

War is inevitable.

The older generation has long since withered away.

Those of the thick generation are all old people, and those of the Zai generation and Yi generation are showing their sharpness now.

During the four years of Zhengde's reign, there was still little friction in the world.

In the fifth year of Zhengde, Dayuan declared war on France.

Emperor Zhu Youtang of the Yuan Dynasty died of illness in the fourth year of Zhengde. Zhu Houzhao, who had ascended the throne for the first time, proclaimed himself the destined general and directed his troops towards France.

The French Emperor Zhu Youcon died as early as the thirteenth year of Hongzhi. Now the person who sits on the French throne is the Immortal Emperor Zhu Houcong.

Zhu Houcong has been emperor for ten years.

In the past ten years, France has taken over Britain, secretly immigrated to Iceland, and occupied Iceland. All the Ming Dynasty's legacy in Europe has been taken away by France.

In recent years, France has wanted to restore its territory to its heyday.

Oh, this heyday is talking about the former France, the territory of the Louis family, not the Zhu family, but now the French legal authority of the Louis family is in France.

This is quite convoluted.

Anyway, the legal system is in Zhu Houcong's hands.

He now wants all the territory back.

He did not intend to follow Dayuan as his grandson. In the third year of Zhengde's reign, Zhu Houcong ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, becoming the Great Emperor of France.

He deliberately added a big character to distinguish him from other emperors.

At that time, Emperor Zhu Youtang of the Yuan Dynasty was seriously ill and had no time to take care of him.

Therefore, in the fifth year of Zhengde, Zhu Houzhao declared war on Zhu Houcong and launched an attack.

Zhu Houzhao VS Zhu Houcong.

It is worth noting that Zhu Houcong was young and Zhu Houzhao was 16 years old. It was too early to become emperor, but Zhu Houzhao would not have drowned.

The rivalry between the brothers caused complete chaos in Western Europe.

In the same year, Zhao State declared war on Shang State, and war also began in Eastern Europe.

Ming Dynasty should be able to take care of itself.

Zhu Houzhen was also ready to restore the economy, and repeatedly promised internationally that the Ming Dynasty would act as a mediating suzerain and would not take the initiative to participate in the war.

As a result, in the sixth year of Zhengde, Qin and Jin declared war on Ming, Wei declared war on Ming, Song declared war on Ming, and Zhou declared war on Ming...

Many neighboring countries declared war on the Ming Dynasty at the same time.

This caught Zhu Houying off guard.

According to his calculations, Ming Dynasty may have a few more years to prepare for war, and use these few years to receive military orders from other countries and alleviate the domestic financial crisis.

Unexpectedly, all countries were at war, and Ming Dynasty could not survive alone.

Zhu Houying was forced to actively participate in the war.

In terms of fighting skills, he was not even as good as his father Zhu Youyi, but he still rushed to the fight and started the war.

He followed the example of his grandfather, Emperor Xianzong, and led the army in person.

The officials in the DPRK urged him to persuade him because Zhu Houyong had no war experience, and the Ming Dynasty fought in various places. The battlefield was not just in one place, and the emperor personally conquered it. Who would coordinate the other battlefields?
The emperor should still sit in the center and coordinate the war.

Zhu Houyong still listened to the advice.

But the war far exceeded his expectations. He thought the war would end within two to three years.

But in the ninth year of Zhengde, the war was still raging.

The scale of the battle is getting bigger and bigger.

The number of people participating in the war is increasing, and now the number of people participating in the war in the Ming Dynasty has exceeded six million.

Economically, there was a brief boom.

What can be consumed is the national power of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Houhuan wanted to concentrate his efforts to defeat a country, first defeat India, regain control of India, and take food into his own hands.

However, in the eighth year of Zhengde, Dayuan made peace with France and jointly sent troops to reinforce the Qin and Jin countries in India.

In the ninth year of Zhengde, the Ming Dynasty suffered a disastrous defeat in the Battle of Bengal.

One of the four major naval forces was defeated.

Since the first year of Hongzhi, the Ming Dynasty has been actively building a navy, investing massive military expenditures every year to build a navy.

In the past few years, we have been practicing continuously, but we did not expect that our navy would be so vulnerable and be defeated at our doorstep.

The failure of this naval battle became a turning point in World War I.

Countries on two continents, the United States and the Pacific, also began to participate in the war.

What was thought to be a world war turned into a war to carve up the Ming Dynasty.

Ming Dynasty needs to face enemies from all over the world.

It was all Zhu Youyi's fault for causing the Great Depression, which made Ming Dynasty the target of public criticism again. Zhu Youyi died and felt comfortable, leaving behind a mess.

In the twelfth year of Zhengde, the total number of troops sent by the Ming Dynasty reached 1200 million, and the expenditure burned reached 1500 trillion.

It is equivalent to saying that all the Ming Dynasty's annual fiscal revenue is invested in military expenditures, which is not enough.

Ming Dynasty can still persist because of its national heritage.

The war has spread to border provinces, affecting hundreds of millions of people.

After a brief economic boom, the economy began to decline across the board because the sea was blockaded by warships and Ming merchant ships were unable to leave the port, which meant that all foreign trade was cut off.

Only relying on internal circulation of the domestic economy to support war expenses.

Countries around the world are also gritting their teeth and supporting it.

What everyone is betting on is the fate of the country.

If the Ming Dynasty is defeated, all countries in the world can regain their health by embezzling the Ming Dynasty.

If the vassal state is defeated, the worst thing is to wait another twenty years and eat it again.

Ming Dynasty also had to grit his teeth and endure hardships.

In the past few years, Zhu Houyong has been aging visibly. Now he is almost forcing the powerful people with a knife, taking out the money and throwing it on the battlefield.

Because there is really no money, the national treasury and internal funds are empty.

Or send more to the people.

Or cut the flesh of the rich and powerful.

Zhu Houyong did not dare to raid the people because there had been great dissatisfaction among the people in recent years. The people were very dissatisfied with the imperial court. There were hundreds of rebellions almost every year. There had been no rebellion in the Ming Dynasty for seventy years.

The flesh of the rich and powerful cannot be cut off casually. They are all IOUs, waiting to be repaid after victory.

In the thirteenth year of Zhengde's reign, the First World War came to an end.

It ended in peace.

But it burned out the national power of many countries, such as the Ming Dynasty. The national power of the Ming Dynasty was drained dry.

Some countries are narrow-minded and do not try their best.

For example, Qian Guo.

After the Luzon peace talks were signed.

Qian Kingdom suddenly sent troops to attack Feng Yin and Dai Kingdom. In just three months, they annexed the two countries and Qian Kingdom became the largest country in Africa.

The same is true for the Han Dynasty. They took the opportunity to cross the Sahara Desert and annex several small countries on the north coast. They also united with the Qian Kingdom and annexed the Dai Kingdom.

They also jointly sent troops to annex Chongguo.

On the African continent, there are only two powerful countries left, Dahan and Daqian, eyeing each other and preparing to dominate the African continent.

The same goes for North America. Dashun was destroyed, Yu was destroyed, and Xiang was destroyed.

There were only three overlords left in North America, Xia, Yue and Yan. Yu remained neutral and did not dare to get involved in the war.

South America was a little better, with only the Jing Kingdom destroyed.

Oceania did not stop either, the Wu Kingdom was destroyed, and only the Tao Kingdom and the Zhou Kingdom were left on the mainland.

Taking advantage of the war in the world, Ming Dynasty quickly recovered its blood, exported its accumulated goods to various countries, and quickly restored post-war order.

In this war to carve up the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty lost 700 million people and lost countless money.

The Great Depression, financial crisis, and nearly ten years of war had really drained the Ming Dynasty of its vitality.

Fortunately, all countries in the world have participated in the war, and no country is holding back silver coins. When all countries have exhausted their supplies, they will come out to take advantage.

Fortunately, the Yellow Sea reclamation project was successful.

The northern elevation project was successful, and Qinghai Province was able to farm. The temperature in Wusheng rose, causing large-scale melting of the snow-capped mountains, and abundant water resources downstream.

The food grown domestically is barely enough to feed 62 billion people.

Because of the war, a total of 1.7 million people died in the Ming Dynasty.

Mainly bombing.

After the war, the Ming Dynasty was devastated, and it would take at least thirty years to recover.

This war made Akito understand that if he didn't have children, he would save his children from suffering in this world.

After the seventh year of Zhengde, the fertility rate plummeted.

The war made Ming Dynasty lose confidence.

In the thirteenth year of Zhengde, in a country with a population of more than 1700 billion, the number of births was only million, which was shockingly low.

But the court had no time to care about this.

Reducing the fertility rate is good for post-war reconstruction.

Not to mention that the people have no confidence, the DPRK and China also have no confidence.

This battle destroyed Daming's energy and energy.

The Ming Dynasty, which was extremely rich and prosperous, was besieged by more than a hundred countries in the world. The seven-year war caused the Ming Dynasty to decline extremely.

A world hegemon is still a world hegemon because the world has declined.

But there will never be a return to the previous prosperity.

The total world population is 120 billion people.

After a war, the population plummeted to 101 billion people, and a total of 19 billion people died. The war was really terrible.

The world economy has degenerated to about the fifty years since Jingtai.

The Ming Dynasty degenerated into the 60th year of Jingtai.

The scariest thing is that people have lost confidence.

I don’t even want to live anymore.

Even if the war is over, the days of fear are still not over. No one knows whether bombers will go to the hinterland and bomb civilians.

The war was simply too cruel.

In the fourteenth year of Zhengde, Zhu Houying closed the door, ignored the chaotic world, cut off contact with the world, actively restored the Ming Dynasty's economy, and rebuilt the cities that had been bombed into ruins.

However, rebuilding costs money.

Where does the money come from?

We still have to think of solutions from the powerful.

As a result, the sixth most bizarre case in Mingzhong occurred!
