Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 317 Zhili Rebellion (2)

Concentrating efforts to do big things is by no means an empty phrase, but is based on a foundation, that is, a framework system under the leadership of centralized power.

In the land of China, the Qin Dynasty unified the world, ended wars and disputes, abolished feudalism, established counties and counties, and unified weights and measures, which laid a very solid foundation. That is, no matter how the dynasties change, no matter how chaotic the world is, it will eventually move towards unification. It is inevitable to move toward unification. It is precisely with this foundation that China's dazzling civilization history has been created, and it has also made China the only ethnic group that has not had a chronological era! !

What Zhu Youxiao wanted to do was to develop intensive handicraft manufacturing based on the premise of opening up sea trade under the background of small-scale peasant economy, and then gradually change the economic structure of the Ming Dynasty and prepare for the subsequent industrial revolution. .

However, if you want to promote this strategic plan, in addition to being powerful, you must also dare to pop some bubbles. Otherwise, if you ignore the existing problems and bad policies and rush to promote changes, sooner or later you will suffer backlash.

"Mr. British, you have to think about the consequences of what you do."

In the Rong government, Shi Yongan looked at Zhang Weixian with a serious expression and said: "The Integrity Commission's thorough investigation of the warehouse has caused an uproar between the government and the public. In such a tense situation, you want to order the three major camps to be under martial law. Isn't that right? Are you adding fuel to the fire? Aren't you afraid of the impeachment of Ke Dao's officials and censors?"

"So what if I impeach you? That's better than having the court be unprepared if something goes wrong."

Zhang Weixian snorted coldly, and said with firm eyes: "I am fortunate to have the trust of Your Majesty to supervise the military affairs of the capital. I cannot handle other matters, and I have no right to intervene. However, what can I do with the stability of the capital and the capital? Make sure everything is done properly and there won’t be any oversights.”

"Yes, I can understand the British Duke's mood."

Shi Yongan followed closely and said: "But the situation has not reached that stage yet. Your Majesty is asking the Integrity Council to conduct a thorough investigation of Zhili Cangchang. It does not mean that things will be serious. Even if you want to do this, there is no need to make such a big fanfare. The British prince can issue military orders secretly.

You don't know what's going on in the court right now.

How many pairs of eyes are staring at it? I'm afraid that at this time, countless people under the jurisdiction of the prefectures and counties in Beizhili are trying to mediate this matter. Under such a situation, there is such a big commotion in the Beijing camp. What do you want them to think?If you are really forced to do something extraordinary, who will bear the consequences? "

Since Sun Chengzong was promoted to the position of Assistant to the Cabinet and Assistant to the Rongzheng of Beijing, after it was vacant for a period of time, Zhu Youxiao arranged for Shi Yong'an to take over.

Shi Yong'an held the title of Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of War and the title of Zuo Deputy Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and actually took charge of the military affairs of the Beijing camp.

"I know Shi Xiezheng's considerations."

Zhang Weixian looked at Shi Yongan with a complicated expression and said: "But I have my own reasons for doing this. Instead of wasting words with me here, it is better to discuss with me how to ensure the stability of the three major camps. Now At that time, the two camps in Fengtai and Xishan were under martial law."

Is that what His Majesty meant? !

When Shi Yongan heard this, he immediately understood what was going on, but deep down in his heart, he didn't understand why Tiantian would do this.

Doesn't this force Beizhili to cause chaos?

Why is this! !
Shi Yong'an really couldn't understand why the emperor asked Zhang Weixian to do such a thing, and why he called the three major camps under martial law. This would only make the situation more tense.

However, no matter how many doubts there were, Shi Yongan, who knew the cause and effect, did not persuade Zhang Weixian as before, but began to think about how to stabilize the three camps.

After all, now that things have reached this point, no matter how much he doesn't understand, as a minister of the Ming Dynasty, all Shi Yongan can do is do his job well.

……

"Your Majesty, you must think twice!!"

In the Qianqing Palace at that time, Zhu Guozuo, the chief minister of the cabinet, was very emotional. He bowed to the emperor and said: "Even if we want to thoroughly investigate Beizhili Cangchang, we should not adopt such a radical method. If anything goes wrong during this period, It leads to chaos in Beizhili, which has a great impact on the imperial court." "If chaos occurs and a warehouse is in deficit, can it be called chaos in Beizhili?"

Zhu Youxiao leaned forward, looked at Zhu Guozuo and said, "Will there be frequent flooding? Or will there be civil unrest, or direct riots?

This time I will test the truth.

Straight bitch!The reserve warehouses, Changping warehouses, social warehouses, free warehouses, and agricultural warehouses established by the imperial court have such serious losses and losses. As the chief minister of the cabinet, do you think it is normal?

When I set up the Integrity Council at the beginning of my reign, I wanted to make a clear attitude. Anyone who dares to be corrupt will have his head chopped off. No one can escape this. "

Something big is going to happen.

Zhu Guozuo's eyes darkened. He had never expected that the emperor would be so resolute. He had never seen the emperor act like this since he became the chief minister of the cabinet.

The emperor had approved all the government affairs memorials that had been discussed by the cabinet before and passed the vote. But now when it comes to the inventory of the warehouse, there are obviously other options. Why did the emperor choose this drastic action?
Zhu Guozuo couldn't understand, really couldn't understand.

If chaos really breaks out in Northern Zhili, it will inevitably affect the capital. If the court cannot effectively solve it, it will definitely affect Jizhou Town, Xuanfu Town, Miyun and other border towns in the capital. If these important towns dare to cause chaos, then the Ming Dynasty will be affected. Whether it is stable or not is hard to say.

It was clear that the imperial court had stabilized the situation in Liaozuo, but now it was trapped in a whirlpool.

"If Your Majesty is so determined to act his own way, then I will have no choice but to remonstrate with death!!"

Thinking of this, Zhu Guozuo's eyes became determined, he looked up at Zhu Youxiao and said: "As the chief minister of the cabinet, I cannot sit back and watch the chaos in the country. I can understand your Majesty's mood, but there are clearly better ways to deal with those big rats and moths." This way, Your Majesty should not be angry with Jiangshan Sheji!"

He is a good first assistant, but I can't quit now.

The trumpet has been blown and there is no reason to back down.

Looking at Zhu Guozuo with firm eyes and Zhu Youxiao sitting on the throne, he felt emotion and sigh in his heart. This is a battle that must be won.

If the battle is won, the grain that was stolen in the past from the warehouse in the northern Zhili border can be replenished by this momentum, thus solving some of the worries.

Defeated, all the previous plans were declared bankrupt and failed.

What's more, winning this battle will bring political gains far beyond Beizhili. Therefore, for Zhu Youxiao, he can only win but not lose!

"Qing family, think about your current position and what kind of example you want to set for the officials."

Thinking of this, Zhu Youxiao looked at Zhu Guozuo and said: "You can indeed remonstrate, but what I have to do must be done. Instead of wasting words with me here, it is better to return to the cabinet as soon as possible to give me stability. In the court affairs, some things are not as simple as the Qing family thinks. I am tired, so the Qing family should leave first."

This……

Seeing the emperor saying such words, Zhu Guozuo was stunned. It could be seen that the emperor stood up and was about to leave. Zhu Guozuo subconsciously stepped forward, wanting to stop the emperor from continuing to admonish him. However, Liu Ruoyu and Han Zanzhou, who were serving in front of the emperor, stepped forward to block Zhu Guozuo, which made him unable to do so. Can stop the emperor.

On the other hand, Zhu Youxiao did not look at Zhu Guozuo twice and left Dongnuan Pavilion with his head held high. In view of the current special situation, Zhu Youxiao decided to leave Xiyuan and temporarily leave Qianqing Palace. Some things must be added to make the fire burn brighter. …
