Daming Zhu Di: Father, why aren't you dead? !

Chapter 254 Old Wanli: What about the promised father being kind and the son being filial?

"Prince, please remember."

"The next sentence is one of my teachings to you, and you must regard it as the truth of life."

Old Wanli stared at Zhu Changluo, as if a father was teaching his son through words and deeds, and giving instructions from ear to ear.

'What a bullshit theory, I can only learn to show off from you! '

Zhu Changluo thought in his heart.

"There is no account in this world that is free from adulteration, just as there is no beauty that can avoid stained makeup."

Hearing this, Zhu Changluo was stunned.

What does false accounting have to do with beautiful women?
Zhu Changluo frowned, and after thinking for a moment, he moved slightly two steps, came to Lao Wanli's side, and whispered softly.

"Dad, the Skynet is vast and there are no omissions."

"As the saying goes, there is no limit to the sea of ​​suffering, but when you turn back, you will find the shore."

"As long as you choose to be honest and lenient, your son will definitely plead with the immortal master and tell the immortal master that you were confused for a moment and it was definitely not your true intention, so that the immortal master can be lenient to you."

As soon as he heard this whisper, Old Wanli's eyes widened and he gritted his teeth.

Raise your legs.

He kicked Zhu Changluo directly on the butt. Under the inertia of the three hundred kilograms of weight, Zhu Changluo staggered and almost rolled to the ground.

Old Wanli's face turned red, veins popped out on his forehead, and he glared at Zhu Changluo.

"I can't look back!"

The voice fell.

Old Wanli's eyes suddenly turned to look at the confused Li Ruhua next to him, with a fierce look in his eyes, which frightened President Li so much that his legs shook.

There is a thin layer of cold sweat on my forehead, thinking that if the conflict between father and son is going to happen, don't let the third party suffer!

"My lord, your stomach hurts."

"Oh, it hurts, it hurts!"

Li Ruhua spoke hurriedly, bowed his body and bowed repeatedly, and then ran quickly outside Fengtian Hall.

If it were placed a year and a half ago.

Of course Li Ruhua did not dare to do this. It was disrespectful to leave without waiting for the emperor's permission, so he was dragged out and executed in a matter of minutes.

After all, at that time, he, the Minister of Household Affairs, could not even meet the old Wanli.

But now, for more than a year, especially after the prince took over the country, for some reason, the old emperor's attitude towards his ministers suddenly changed 180 degrees. He is amiable and amiable to everyone he meets. The image of a benevolent king.

Especially for him, the general manager of Royal Silver, who was in charge of money. Every time the old emperor saw him, he always had a smile on his face.

of course.

The next second is to transfer the money into the internal treasury by myself, and to instruct myself to work hard, give full play to my professional capabilities, and carefully prepare false accounts.

And there is a characteristic. Whenever His Royal Highness the Crown Prince rewards an official, the old emperor will always reward him again after knowing about it, and the amount of the reward is twice that of the Crown Prince.

"Your Majesty, everything is fine!"

"All the accounts for the past year and a half have been checked for deficiencies. There will definitely be no errors or omissions!"

The officials from the Baiyin Head Office who were lying on the ground checking the accounts stood up one after another, and the sweat on their faces could be counted.

heard.

Old Wanli's face lit up, he laughed, and he patted the nearest official on the shoulder very affectionately.

"Very well, you all did well."

"Let's all go down and receive the reward. Each person will be rewarded with 500 taels of silver, and will be given a special seven-day rest."

After receiving the order, these small officials saluted one after another, and their faces were all filled with joy.

They say that the old emperor has been generous with his rewards over the past year, and I am not deceived!

They are all ninth-level officials in the accounting room of the Royal Silver Headquarters. This time they were able to see the Emperor Longyan, which was already a tribute to their ancestors' merits. They did not expect that there would be a reward of 500 taels of silver from the Emperor. This was their whole life. Four years of salary.

Ok.

Although Wanli Time and Space is relatively slim.

But in terms of official salary reform, it also kept up with the perspective of other great Ming Dynasties. Even the annual salary of the ninth-grade official was raised to 120 taels of silver.

"Thank you, Your Majesty...!"

They all knelt down to salute and thank them, and then exited the Fengtian Hall in an orderly manner.

The entire Fengtian Temple.

Only old Wanli and his eldest son, Prince Zhu Changluo, were left.

"Okay, that's great! I finally caught up!"

Old Wanli looked at the account books on the ground, which had all been compared, with unconcealable joy in his eyes. At the same time, he did not forget to get closer to Zhu Changluo.

"Prince, you must remember that you and I are biological father and son whose blood is dissolved in water. We should be kind to the father and filial to the son, and we should advance and retreat together."

Swish.

And in this very moment.

Above the Jinluan Palace, six figures appeared.

Immortal Ji Boying and Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang sit on the dragon chair, Hongwu Zhu Di and Jianwen Zhu Di stand on the right side of the dragon chair, Hongwu Zhu Biao and Jiajing Immortal stand on the left side of the dragon chair.

Although no words were spoken.

however.

The atmosphere in the entire Fengtian Hall suddenly became extremely oppressive as the six people appeared.

At this moment, Lao Wanli, who had his back to the dragon chair, had no idea that he was still happily looking at the account books that had just been sorted out. Prince Zhu Changluo reacted immediately and quickly bowed and saluted.

"Zhu Changluo met the immortal master, Taizu, Xingzong, the two Taizongs, and Shizong."

The voice fell.

Lao Wanli, who was looking at the account book, suddenly became excited and turned around suddenly. Because the incident happened too suddenly, or he felt a little guilty from the beginning, Lao Wanli knelt down the moment he turned around.

"Zhu Yijun, why are you skipping class?!"

The first one to stand up was Abiao, who shouted sharply.

As a teaching assistant and discipline director, it is his job to detect the problem of students skipping classes.

Gollum.

Facing the scolding and interrogation from A Biao, Lao Wanli swallowed his saliva, subconsciously picked up a pile of ledgers beside him, and spoke nervously.

"Well, well, it turned out that the Royal Silver Head Office had urgent matters to deal with, so I left rashly. I also asked the immortal master, Taizu and all the ancestors to take a closer look."

on the dragon chair.

Ji Boying's eyes were slightly focused, and he calmly looked at the [-]-pound fat man who was kneeling under His Highness.

"Brother, we remember that we have deprived this fat man of imperial power before. How can he be responsible for the affairs of the Baiyin Head Office now?"

Lao Zhu, who was sitting on the dragon chair with him, looked at His Highness Lao Wanli and said with a slight frown.

When the emperors of the Ming Dynasty came to Wanli time and space for the first time, they had already handed over the imperial power of the Wanli Ming Dynasty to the hands of the prince Zhu Changluo. This has been fully verified in the Wanli Liaodong battlefield.

"Ah."

Ji Boying nodded slightly, of course he had not forgotten this incident.

but.

With a quick guess, you can guess the process.

For a year and a half, there was no external interference in this process. After all, Old Wanli was still the emperor. If he wanted to take back the imperial power, as long as he worked hard, he would definitely be able to get it from Zhu Changluo, the prince of the country. Take back some of it.

Such operations by Old Wanli will create a situation like the Wanli Ming Dynasty.

Because the current Wanli Ming Dynasty actually has the crown prince Zhu Changluo supervising the country, and most of the officials replaced by various departments are the favor of the prince Zhu Changluo. These people naturally support the prince, so the prince Zhu Changluo is here Chaozhong already has its own team.

However, after all, the prince Zhu Changluo was not as brave as Li Er of the Tang Dynasty, and he could not completely ignore the emperor Wanli.

finally.

The entire Wanli Ming Dynasty formed two forces, the emperor and the prince, crushing each other for power in the court.

This party struggle is very interesting. It is definitely the first time since 2000 that the party leaders are the current emperor and the current prince.

The reason why Lao Wanli wanted to continue to get involved in the imperial power was also very simple.

Silver, too much!

After the Wanli Ming Dynasty destroyed the Jin Dynasty in Liaodong, its military power was greatly shaken. In addition, the Royal Tiangong Institute's research and development of flintlocks and other firearms were equipped. At the same time, the Japanese island suffered a lot of internal friction due to the death of Toyotomi Hideyoshi. Tokugawa replaced it. The shogunate is not strong. Already half a year ago, the Wanli Ming Expeditionary Force drove Xiaoli into the sea with flintlock guns.

The Japanese silver has begun to be transported back to the mainland of Wanli and Ming Dynasties.

Old Wanli, as a miser who only appeared once in a century, saw so much white money flowing in front of him, but he couldn't even touch it.

Zhu Yijun absolutely disagrees with such a thing and absolutely cannot stand it.

Therefore, in a silent late night, after experiencing repeated bouts of insomnia, Lao Wanli made up his mind and issued a decree, directly bringing several old people who had already retired into the cabinet into the cabinet, and then quickly established the six departments and the newly built Many organizations have arranged manpower.

Overnight, the court became two factions.

In fact, judging from this skillful operation, it is not that Lao Wanli has no means of controlling people, it is just because he is lazy.

"Let's first take a look at how the Wanli Ming Dynasty died in the end."

Say it.

Ji Boying first used the dog system to roughly scan the subsequent development of the Wanli Ming Dynasty.

"Do you want to spend ten refresh opportunities to redeem the image of destruction in Wanli time and space?"

"whether"

Complete the operation in one thought.

"Redeem Completed"

After it became clear, his brows suddenly furrowed.

This Wanli Ming Dynasty is completely different from the Zhengde Ming Dynasty.

The typical problem of the Zhengde Ming Dynasty lies in the inheritance. It was usurped by the Ming Dynasty version Wang Mang. The usurpation process basically followed the old path of Han Mang, step by step, killing one emperor after another.

but.

Judging from what Ji Boying has learned about the subsequent development of the Wanli Ming Dynasty, Zhu Changluo, the prince overseer of the Wanli Ming Dynasty, did not become emperor, and the last emperor of the Wanli Ming Dynasty was Zhu Changluo's eldest son, Zhu Youxiao.

The current Wanli Ming Dynasty is already in the 48th year of Wanli. Guozuo has gone through 252 years, and there are only 288 years left before the 36th year of Guozuo.

In other words, in these 36 years, the throne of Wanli Ming Dynasty finally died in the hands of Zhu Youxiao, and this throne directly skipped Zhu Changluo.As for the reason.

Swish.

Ji Boying moved with his thoughts.

The surrounding scenery suddenly changed in an instant.

Lao Zhu, Lao Zhu Di, Zhu Laosi and A Biao, including the Jiajing Immortal, all frowned and their pupils shrank. They recognized where this place was at a glance, outside the Meridian Gate of the Forbidden City.

Old Wanli and Zhu Changluo, the father and son's expressions changed suddenly.

of course.

Their expressions changed not because they saw the Meridian Gate, but because they saw the scene under the Meridian Gate.

--------

The sky is very dark.

The wind of sorrow passed by, and the air was filled with the pungent smell of blood.

At this moment, right in front of the Meridian Gate of the Forbidden City, there is a huge oil tank and a ten-foot-high wooden pole inserted upside down. On this wooden pole, an extremely fat man wrapped in oilcloth is tied, and a fire is burning on the top. .

In ancient times, there was an extremely cruel way to die, called "lighting a sky lantern."

The general process is to first strip the living person naked, then wrap the whole body with linen cloth, then put him into an oil tank to soak his feet, and finally tie his head and feet to a long wooden pole, and light the feet with fire.

At this time, the person is like a wick, burning slowly.

This method of dying by lighting sky lanterns is extremely torturous and extremely slow, especially for those athletes with a lot of fat. It is not uncommon to light a small sky lantern for a whole day and a night.

After Dong Zhuo was killed by Lu San at the end of Han Dynasty, he was lit up with sky lanterns like this.

Next to this sky lantern, there is another person, with his hair covering his face, and no trace of his body is left. He is tied to the pillar, and his flesh and blood are being cut off with a knife. This is Ling Chi. .

The person has fainted.

At the same time, from inside the Meridian Gate, there were continuous cries, accompanied by the endless wind and sorrow.

At a glance, it was seen that there were a large number of female relatives dressed in luxurious brocade robes. Under the scolding and driving of the foreign soldiers, they were connected one by one with hemp ropes and were driven out like animals.

When they passed by the sky lantern and Lingchi, their crying reached its peak.

-------

The picture finally settled on this scene.

The Meridian Gate, the sky lanterns, Ling Chi, and the aliens Ling Lu, everything they saw in front of them shattered like bubbles in an instant, and the surroundings returned to the scene of Fengtian Temple.

"This, this, this..."

After seeing the scene just now, Old Wanli, who was kneeling before His Highness Jinluan, his head was buzzing and he was completely confused.

because.

The person who had the sky lantern lit just now was himself.

Although it is wrapped in linen, it can be recognized at a glance.

Zhu Changluo, who was standing nearby, also frowned. His father was lit with a sky lantern, and the other was chopped alive, but he couldn't see his face clearly, so he wasn't sure if the one who was chopped was him.

"Brother, how could the Wanli Ming Dynasty become like this?"

Lao Zhu frowned.

He thought about many endings of the fall of the Wanli Ming Dynasty, but he never expected that the emperor of the Wanli Ming Dynasty would eventually be killed by foreigners and entered the palace, lighting up sky lanterns and Ling Chi.

Simply a shame.

Old Zhu Di and Zhu Laosi, the two Taizongs of the Ming Dynasty, also frowned.

This ending of the Wanli Ming Dynasty is really surprising. After all, after all, it has been tricked so many times, how could it be trapped by a man on horseback.

"Master has taught us so many lessons, how can we still end up like this?"

"You two are nothing short of useless, even I, the Emperor, am better than you even lying down!"

Immortal Jiajing had doubts in his mind and at the same time, he angrily scolded Old Wanli and Zhu Changluo who were kneeling under His Highness.

"Master Immortal, how could our dynasty be like this?"

"Shouldn't be!"

His Highness Zhu Changluo spoke hastily.

on the dragon chair.

Ji Boying glanced at Zhu Changluo and the kneeling old Wanli, and roughly summarized the key points of the fall of the Wanli Ming Dynasty.

Open your mouth softly.

"From the 47th year of Wanli to the 79th year of Wanli, the court of Wanli Ming Dynasty engaged in a party struggle between the emperor and the prince that lasted for 32 years."

The first sentence is a critical attack when the screen is opened.

Old Zhu Abiao, Old Zhu Di, Zhu Laosi, and the Jiajing Immortal were all stunned when they heard this.

what?
The party struggle between the emperor and the prince? !
Old Wanli, who was kneeling under the Jinluan Palace, shrank his neck and lowered his head. Of course he knew what he had done in the past year.

Zhu Changluo on the side raised his head, feeling that the baby had been wronged and now someone was finally doing justice to the baby.

"At the beginning of the party struggle, the Wanli Ming Dynasty was still developing in an orderly manner. Under a series of new policy reforms, the national strength increased by leaps and bounds."

"In the 58th year of Wanli, the Ming army, equipped with all firearms, launched a campaign to suppress the Mongolian tribes in Mobei. After half a year, the Mongolian Lindan Khan was surrounded and suppressed on the banks of the Onan River, which is known in history as the Battle of the Onan River."

"In this battle, more than half of the [-] Mongolian main force were killed or wounded, and the rest were scattered. Lin Dan Khan's wife and children were all killed by the Ming army's firearms. He himself was captured, and only his youngest son escaped. Lin Dan Khan was escorted back to Shuntian and imprisoned. In imperial prison."

"The following year, the disputes between political parties in the DPRK escalated sharply, and the DPRK situation began to enter a 20-year-long period of intense intensity. There were two political issues in the imperial court, and the government orders in the world were inconsistent. Since it started in the Jiashen year, it was known in history as the Jiashen Rebellion."

"In the past 20 years, due to the power struggle between the emperor and the prince, the imperial court has replaced 27 chief ministers of the cabinet, 98 cabinet members, ministers of the six ministries, presidents of the Baiyin Headquarters, chief officers of major military regions, etc., a total of three There are more than a hundred people, and all ongoing reforms have stalled."

Hearing this, Lao Zhu's eyes were extremely cold.

20 years of inconsistent government orders, changing them day and night. Under this kind of crazy tossing, even the Immortal Dynasty will have to be completely finished in the end!
"In addition, Emperor Wanli wantonly moved a large amount of silver into the inner treasury, so that the overseas expansion plan was delayed and the sailing fleet was forced to return. The country lost the contradiction of overseas productivity, and at the same time, under the squandering, the overproduction of silver continued The money poured into the private sector, causing extremely serious inflation of silver.”

"In the 47th year of Wanli, one tael of silver could buy two stones of rice. However, in the 82nd year of Wanli, only 100 taels of silver could buy one stone of rice. Prices soared two hundred times."

"And just when the imperial party struggle was at a fever pitch, because of the loss of imperial supervision, the army was also corrupt. The generals did not think about national defense and the armaments were disorganized. A large number of officers began to resell the advanced firearms in the army. Some of these firearms flowed into the grassland to support the people. In the Mongolian army of Lin Dan Khan's youngest son."

"Wanli 79, late summer."

"The 69-year-old Crown Prince Zhu Changluo passed away due to illness. The 32-year-old partisan struggle between the emperor and the crown prince ended. Emperor Wanli finally killed the Crown Prince Zhu Changluo and took sole power."

"In the early autumn of the same year, Emperor Wanli contracted a cold. Lin Dan Khan, who had been imprisoned in the Ming Dynasty for 20 years, personally tasted Emperor Wanli's feces and concluded that Emperor Wanli had recovered from his illness and could live to be a hundred years old. Emperor Wanli was overjoyed and ignored the objections of his officials. , let Lin Dan Khan return to the grassland. After Lin Dan Khan returned to the grassland, he summoned his old troops, equipped the army with the Ming court firearms he bought at the expense of others, and bribed the border Ming generals. At the same time, he professed vassalage to the Ming court. Khan tomorrow.”

"In the 82nd year of Wanli, Lin Dan Khan took the oath on the grassland and led [-] Mongolian cavalry equipped with flintlock guns and various new firearms and cannons researched by the Royal Tiangong Institute of the Ming Dynasty. They broke through the Juyong Pass in one fell swoop, went straight to the Ming Dynasty Imperial Capital, and surrounded Shun. sky."

"In the spring of the following year, in the 83rd year of Wanli, Emperor Wanli issued an edict, following the example of Yao and Shun, to place the Zen throne at the throne of the emperor's grandson Zhu Youxiao. After three formal resignations and three concessions, Zhu Youxiao succeeded to the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, with the reign name of Tianqi."

"At the end of the summer of the same year, the nine gates of the capital fell. In order to avenge the murder of his wife and son, Lin Dan Khan ordered the Mongolian army to massacre Shuntian Mansion for seven days and seven nights. Millions of Ming people were killed under the Mongolian butcher's knife, and outside the Meridian Gate, they Emperor Wanli lit the sky lantern, Emperor Tianqi chopped him into pieces alive with three thousand knives, all the men of the Zhu family were slaughtered, and all the concubines and princesses of the royal family were made slave girls."

"Since then."

"The Ming Dynasty is destroyed and restored."

The voice settled.

The entire Fengtian Temple was completely silent.

"Anti-Ming restoration?"

"Try your courage?"

"The shame of Jingnan?"

Abiao opened his mouth and subconsciously said these few words.

No one thought that the Wanli Ming Dynasty could subdue the country like this, and it was typical of him to finish himself off.

Especially for Lao Zhu, he finally fought hard to destroy Yuan, but Yuan came back again?What the hell is this? !

Lao Zhu Di, Zhu Laosi, and the Jiajing Immortal.

Including Ji Boying, who was sitting on the dragon chair, all eyes were focused on one person at this moment.

The most core issue in the follow-up development trajectory of the Wanli Ming Dynasty just now is the intensified party struggle caused by the malicious power struggle between the emperor and the prince.

The inconsistent government orders paralyzed the reform of state affairs. From civil servants to military generals, no one cared about the country. They were all trapped in the quagmire of power struggles and party strife, and had no time for government affairs and national defense.

Coupled with Lao Wanli's mischief, he transferred silver to the internal treasury and squandered it wantonly, causing inflation to rise rapidly without relief from overseas productivity.

In the end, the emergence of Mongolian Lindan Khan, the Ming Dynasty's version of the copro-eater, and various factors ultimately led to the demise of the Ming Dynasty.

In essence, the biggest blame lies with Lao Wanli.

Regarding Li Longji, the Ming Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Ji Boying once said that Li Sanlang was good at everything, but his biggest shortcoming was that he lived too long.

And now it seems.

This sentence also applies to Lao Wanli.

Wanli 83 years!This old fat man actually lived to be 93 years old!
If we didn't light up the sky lanterns, we might still be able to survive.

Ji Boying really couldn't figure out how such a fat man who weighed almost [-] pounds could survive so well?
Or is this old Wanli starting to pay attention to health care?

After all, the original old Wanli should have died at the age of 58.

"This, this, this is none of my business."

Old Wanli, who was kneeling on the ground, said with a blush on his face.

"Especially when it comes to money, I have a ledger, and I didn't mess with it. I definitely didn't mess with it!"

talking.

Old Wanli turned around, picked up the account book on the ground, and looked at the prince Zhu Changluo next to him, as if he was grasping at straws.

"If you don't believe it, you can ask the prince! The prince can testify for me!"

The voice just fell.

The prince Zhu Changluo on the side took a deep breath and saluted calmly.

"Master Immortal, Master Taizu, Master Xingzong, Master Taizong, Master Shizong."

"I testify."

"My father made all false accounts."

Old Wanli (°д°): What about the promised father’s kindness and son’s filial piety? !
--------

PS: I feel that the monthly pass is of little use. Since I got a little more monthly passes the day before yesterday, I feel that the increase in collection has increased a bit.

Monsters are here, thank you dear fathers.

Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a recommendation ticket!
