Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 383 Shandong Urgent Report

In the Ming Dynasty during this period, compared to the problems that had been exposed, what Zhu Youxiao paid more attention to and worried about were actually the hidden dangers hidden in the dark.

It's easy to hide from an open gun, but hard to guard against a hidden arrow!

No matter how dangerous and difficult to deal with the bad policies and problems that are exposed on the surface, they can at least be seen clearly. Even if the process is complicated and difficult, at least they can be solved in a targeted manner.

Just like the governance and construction of Beizhili and the establishment of an intensive handicraft manufacturing industry, the resulting pressure on food supply and demand can be cultivated and promoted by new crops, squeezing warehouse deficits, adjusting the internal supply and demand structure, and preparing for a new model of work-for-relief. , and actively opened special food lines to the outside world to gradually improve the pressure on food supply and demand.

Or if rebellions committed by Jianqi and below cause turmoil and threats to the Liaodong region, we can maintain central guidance and intervention in Liao, restructure the local power order in Liao, eliminate the bloated and ineffective guest army system, and abolish the useless guard. The institute system was established to serve as an incentive for military personnel, and the central government gradually allocated various military supplies, banned direct allocation of food and salary, and used regional wars to stimulate the development of the Zhili military industry system, etc., to gradually resolve the threats posed by the Jianlu rebellion.

There are many more situations like the above. As long as Ming Dynasty can follow its own rhythm and not be disrupted by internal factors and external troubles, then with the blessing of a huge body, it can adjust and eradicate the above-mentioned shortcomings, and even make Ming Dynasty In a subtle way, internal innovation is gradually completed!

Promoting reform and reform does not necessarily have to be vigorous in order to be successful. Sometimes subtle and silent changes can often achieve unexpected results.

But the hidden dangers hidden in the dark are different.

Too many and too complicated.

Sudden.

Have contingency.

One of the situations that Zhu Youxiao is most worried about is that when he solves the obvious problems in a targeted manner, new unrest and riots will occur due to the influence of some factors, which is undoubtedly fatal.

According to Zhu Youxiao's knowledge, the rebellions and civil commotions that occurred in the Tianqi Dynasty were not limited to the Shaanxi Uprising. Before that, there were many large and small rebellions and civil commotions in various parts of the Ming Dynasty, and most of these were forced In a desperate situation, with no way to survive, he made a desperate choice.

Therefore, what Zhu Youxiao can do is, on the one hand, to strengthen the construction of the secret front, and then to eliminate hidden dangers like the White Lotus Sect that are highly contagious and deceptive.

On the one hand, we need to try to reduce the pressure on the lower class groups. In addition to abolishing Liaoning rates and making it clear that we will never increase taxes, we must also choose opportunities to implement other tax measures.

In addition, we must intensify efforts to combat corruption, actively rectify corruption among officials, actively gather bankrupt groups, and actively ease class conflicts... Only by effectively implementing these can the problem be solved.

"Brother Emperor, aren't you in a hurry when something like this happens in Tongzhou?"

In Dongnuan Pavilion, Zhu Youjian's expression was serious, his words were urgent, and he clutched the file in his hand, "Li Ruolian and the others found the hidden pile of Jianlu's new condemnation. Tian Ergeng and the others smuggled the remnants of the smuggling case outside the inspection gate. According to the instructions of my brother. See, we should ask them to join forces and detect it as soon as possible. After all, if there is really some kind of connection between them, I'm afraid..."

"If this happens, wouldn't Luan Wei be made public?"

Zhu Youxiao leaned on the soft cushion, picked up the tea cup at hand, took a sip, and said slowly: "This goes against my original idea of ​​setting up Luan Guard."

"But this is different."

Zhu Youjian frowned and said: "If it is found elsewhere, we can still investigate and interrogate slowly, but Tongzhou is close to the capital after all. If an accident occurs, it may have consequences for both the capital and the capital." Big impact.”

It's quite thoughtful.

Zhu Youxiao showed an approving smile. In fact, Zhu Youxiao could completely understand Zhu Youjian's reaction. After all, Tongzhou's location was unusual. If some troubles really happen in Tongzhou, it will inevitably affect the capital, and once the order of the capital changes, it will inevitably shake the stability of the capital.

There is too much turmoil and chaos that evolves from within.

"Didn't you consider the remnant of White Lotus investigated by Luo Sigong?"

Zhu Yujian, who had been silent all this time, now said: "Your Majesty's decision is undoubtedly wise. The Jinyi Guards are the sharp blades of the imperial court on the bright side, while the Luan Guards are the sharp weapons in the dark. If it is just to investigate the hidden piles of the prisoners and the remnants of smuggling, then If Luan Wei is exposed and the remnants of White Lotus are shocked, it will be too much of a loss."

"Not to mention what changes will happen within Jinyiwei after learning about this matter. After all, His Majesty re-employs Luanwei. This is a very uneasy signal for Luo Sigong, Tian Ergen and Xu Xianchun."

"indeed."

Zhu Youjian's expression became solemn, and after thinking for a moment, he nodded in approval.

"I want you to know this just because I want you to understand."

Zhu Youxiao leaned forward, stretched out his hand and said to the two of them: "When we face some problems, many times they are not one-sided. During this period, there will be one or another bond, so when we want to solve some problems, we cannot be arbitrary. To make a decision, learn to consider the problem holistically.”

"After all, there may be new situations happening in places we can't see. If all the cards are revealed before then, if a new situation occurs and we have no cards to use, the consequences will definitely be It’s unimaginable!”

Zhu Youjian and Zhu Yujian looked at each other with different expressions on their faces. The longer they stayed in front of the emperor, the more they realized how insignificant they were.

It seems that they have learned a lot before and even used them effectively, but when facing new tests, they made some omissions of one kind or another.

There is no end to learning!

This is the biggest feeling in their hearts.

"In the coming days, you should pay close attention to this matter."

Zhu Youxiao picked up a memorandum without raising his head to look at the two of them, "We need to figure out the relevance of my decrees, and at the same time, we also need to analyze what decisions or decisions Luo Sigong and the others will make in their actual actions. Behavior, the above must be completed without affecting the scheduled coursework. After this matter is over, you must write a summary letter to me."

"My brother obeys the order."

"The minister obeys the order."

No matter how many and complicated things he encountered, Zhu Youxiao never disrupted his rhythm, including the royal education of Zhu Youjian and Zhu Yujian, which was also extremely strict. Now he can't even endure this little hardship, and he will not be able to endure it in the future. How can we take the lead?

The Zhu family doesn’t need waste!

"Report!!"

Just as the two were about to leave, a voice sounded outside the palace. The eunuch Wang Tiqian, the eunuch in charge of etiquette, hurriedly entered the palace with an urgent delivery.

"Your Majesty, the governor of Shandong is sending an urgent message. Disasters have occurred in many places in Shandong, including large and small rivers..." After hearing this, Zhu Youxiao frowned. It happened that at this time, some disasters occurred under the rule of Shandong. , this does not seem to be a good trend.
