At the end of Song Dynasty: I want to be the master of ZTE

Chapter 381: Real Records of King Sejong ([-])

"The inspection of the censor and the Fengcai Court are all set up for heaven to listen. However, the requests of such a large group of people have turned a deaf ear. Especially since Pingjiang Prefecture is near the capital, I am very disappointed.

The remnants of the Yuan captives fled far away to the Western Regions and lived in a corner. The country's military virtues were abundant and it was difficult to cause foreign aggression.

What can be worried about is internal trouble.

The overseas country is vast and has countless fertile fields, which can save laborers from hunger. However, with the large-scale application of machines, the number of workers will sooner or later exceed the number of farmers. When the country is strong, how can we move workers overseas?
Isn’t Li Da’s incident a warning?

Zhang relied on the power of the spinners to amass wealth, but he did not know that the spinners union destroyed the machines and killed the factory guards.

One or two Zhangs are insignificant, one or two hundred can still be suppressed with a snap of the fingers, but what about one or twenty thousand, tens or millions?

A country is strong because of its work. If it does not love its craftsmen, it will turn against them.

Craftsmen have skills and can easily produce weapons by occupying workshops. They are organized and can become a strong army with a little training.

If you think that a large army can suppress it, don't you know that there are many children of peasants and workers in the army?
At that time, you and I were like passing clouds, and our descendants died without a burial place!

According to the Work Law established by the Ministry of Industry and Household Affairs of Yushitai, the core is as follows: working hours are reasonable, wages are enough to support the family, work-related injuries are compensated at the price, leave can be stated in advance, and minimum wages and maximum working hours are set according to economic development in various places.

The crown prince and deputy Zongzheng, Zongzheng Temple added a nursing department to supervise the world's workshops to implement the responsibilities of construction laws and protect the legitimate rights and interests of craftsmen. "

Zou Yi, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, said: "Steam engines have not been popularized for a long time. The price is high and the maintenance cost is huge. If the workers' treatment is improved, the factory owners may leave due to low profits, which is not conducive to industrial development."

The emperor said: "Laozi said: The way of heaven is like a bow and a bow. The higher one restrains it, the lower one lifts it. Those who have more will damage it, and those who have less will make up for it. The way of heaven is to make up for the deficiency when there is more damage. The way of man is Otherwise, the loss will not be enough to make up for the loss.

Capital is humane, but if there is a profit, people will flock to it. If you get twice the profit, you are not afraid of the law. If you get three times the profit, you will not hesitate to die or destroy your family.

The benefits of machines are more than just [-]%?

The emperor, the lord of all peoples, should follow the way of heaven, and I should have more than enough to serve the world.

It is not for the purpose of sanctification, but it is actually the imperial power granted by the people, and I should make decisions for the people.

I still remember that when I was in Ruian Mansion, the people's hearts were betrayed, and the strong and powerful were no longer respectful. I killed countless powerful and powerful people, and collected money, grain, and acres of land to please [-]% of the people. Therefore, the people died, otherwise even if there was a thunderbolt, they would think they were dead bones in the tomb.

Today, the country is prosperous, and the court has no resources to pay for it. The imperial court has issued an edict to reduce the land tax by half, and ordered the princes to patrol the country and supervise the replacement of stone tablets. "

The ministers followed the imperial edict and left.

The emperor left the prince and said: "If the dynasty is destroyed, the nobles can go overseas, but the Zhao family cannot go, so we must win over the hearts of the majority.

Most of the court officials were from well-off backgrounds and could not sympathize with the sufferings of the common people. The same was true for princes and emperors. Therefore, the nursing staff should take the initiative to act responsibly, and they should take the initiative to supervise even if no one complained. "

After receiving the instruction, the prince asked again, "What if he is an apprentice in a small workshop?"

The emperor replied: "As long as you work, you are a craftsman, and you should protect yourself. Today's affairs will be compiled into a document and published to the world."

The prince took the order and left.

The next day, the National Dynasty Times published a memorial, and many envoys and inspection censors resigned, saying: "You have derelict so much in your duties, how can you show your dignity?"

The emperor said: "Know your shame and then be brave."

25. The emperor left the palace incognito and entered a restaurant. He listened to the discussion at the next table about the Zhang family. A guest said: "Zhang family has no moral character but has achieved great achievements. How can the official and the government be in peace when the country is in serious trouble?"

The emperor felt disappointed and ordered eight plates of food to comfort himself.

On the third day of September, the emperor and the empress had a drink. The empress said: "My father left his hometown to serve the king. Although he was in charge of Jiangxi, he never returned to his hometown. It has been 30 years now. I wonder if the pear tree at the door still tastes the same?"

The emperor thought that King Wen and Prime Minister Tianxiang were buried overseas. He felt sad and said: "Old ministers who have become official can stay in the country to take care of their old age. Those who have already left the country can return home." The emperor hesitated again and again, and ordered the queen to write a letter asking her brother if The king of Qianji returned to his country.

On the eighth day of September, the Empress Dowager fainted, and the Emperor gave her soup and medicine. She couldn't take off her clothes. Three days later, the Empress Dowager woke up and began to rest.

When he went to court the next day, the emperor felt depressed and said: "In an ordinary family, children and grandchildren take their parents on an autumn trip, talking and laughing. I am the lord of the world and live in the palace. I cannot make my mother laugh. I am not a human son."

Lin Jingxi, the Chief Assistant, advised: "The Empress Dowager has always put the country first and will not be blamed for this. Your Majesty does not need to blame yourself."

On the ninth day of the Lunar New Year, the Double Ninth Festival, the emperor left the court, took the empress and his concubines, and personally drove the empress dowager out of the city to Yuhuatai, and then carried the empress dowager up the mountain.

On the tenth day of the lunar month, the Yellow River Water Supervisor in the capital reported: "The water in the Yellow River is clear. This is the image that the sage will pay homage to again."

The emperor laughed and said: "Everyone in the world says that the Yellow River was cleared by the saints. However, during Huizong's reign, the river was cleared twice, and there was a flood of congratulatory messages. However, in the end, he ended up in a hurry in the north and died in a foreign land."

On the first day of October, the emperor issued an edict, and he was granted the title of crown prince and moved to Zijin Palace.

The holy will has been decided, and the cabinet will no longer stop it.

According to the old story of Emperor Ruian's Mansion, the prince succeeded to the throne and respected the emperor as the Supreme Emperor, the Empress Dowager Yang as the Empress Dowager, the Empress Wen as the Empress Dowager, and the late Queen Wang as the Cixiao Empress Dowager.

On the second day of the lunar new year, the Taishang moved to Zijin Palace.

Zijin Palace, the palace on the top of Zijin Mountain, cost 30 silver.

On the fifth day of the lunar month, the new emperor's enthronement ceremony ended. He ordered the emperor to give him ten thousand taels of silver every year, but the emperor refused.

On the eighth day of the lunar month, His Majesty accompanied the Queen Mother back to Lin'an.

On the tenth day of the lunar month, the emperor ordered all the adult princes to return to the country. King Peng of Yi asked to be granted the title of Nanzhou. The emperor ordered the navy to set up a Nanzhou fleet to protect King Yi to Nanzhou. Princes [-] and [-] requested to be granted the title of Nanyang. The emperor agreed, and the other princes Seal Guwei Island in the East China Sea.

On the twenty-first day, the emperor arrived in Lin'an and accompanied the empress dowager to pay homage to the late emperor.

After the ceremony, the Empress Dowager said: "Du is too much. For the ten years your father has been emperor, all the power of the government has been handled by Jia Sidao, without any achievements, so the temple is called Du."

The eldest brother revived the country and preserved the country. I wonder how future generations will evaluate him. "

The Supreme Being smiled and said: "If you are not the Lord of the Order of Shoucheng, what do you mean by Shizong?"

The Empress Dowager said: "If my eldest brother were the Lord Protector, all the emperors in the past dynasties would have wasted their fame."

The Supreme Being said: "I will be the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty so that my descendants can have something to look forward to."

The next day, the Queen Mother helped the Queen Mother to the Qiantang River to watch the tide. There were fishermen catching big fish to show their respect, and the Queen Mother happily accepted the gesture.

On the third day of the eleventh month, the emperor came to Lin'an to see the Supreme Being and said: "The Ministry of Household Affairs reports that there is insufficient gold and silver in the country, and there is not enough copper coins to use. Please ask the Supreme Being to issue an edict to make banknotes."

The Supreme Being said: "It can be done if it is beneficial to all people, but we must prevent the government from benefiting the people and harming the people."

The emperor asked his Majesty to return to Chengtian Mansion and said: "My father has left the capital, and my son and ministers are not at ease."

The Supreme Being said: "When I came to the throne at the age of eight, your grandmother ignored me and relied on my own performance. I am already over [-] years old and should be self-reliant."

The emperor left angrily.

On the fifth day of the lunar month, Taishang came to Taizhou to pay his respects to Liu Shiyong.

On the eighth day of the lunar month, the Empress Dowager returned to her hometown. At that time, her uncle Yang Liang went to Sihan Road to serve as an official and returned to his hometown. He bought some wine to wait for him. The Empress Dowager was in high spirits and drank until midnight before resting. At midnight, she died, and the Empress Dowager returned to Lin'an with her coffin. The Empress Dowager was buried in Yongshao Mausoleum.
