Daming, originally wanted to destroy it, but the system came

Chapter 204 Want to run?There is no door
After Zhu Chu scolded him, the court became quiet.

Because it was only then that the ministers finally remembered that they only cared about Zhu Zhen's transgression, but forgot that Zhu Zhen was counterinsurgency. Those who were killed by him were all guilty of rebellion and deserved to die.

As for the placement of Yongchang Mansion and Yingjiang, he also said that they were too far apart, so he dealt with it cheaply.

After all, Zhu Zhen was the king of the Yunnan vassal, and during the war, he did still have this power.

Even Zhu Yuanzhang said at this time: "The memorial sent by Zhu Ming indeed carefully stated all the events, as well as those government affairs that need to be dealt with as soon as possible. I never intended to blame him. As for the matter of transgression, let's not mention it again. .”

Zhu Ming turned to look at Zhu Yuanzhang and wanted to say, do you dare to say that you have never blamed me?Who hit me in the first place?

Zhu Yuanzhang pretended not to see it, raised his hand and said, "Everyone, get up."

The ministers quickly thanked him.

Zhu Ming shook his head and was about to return to the ranks of generals with square steps.

However, he was stopped by Zhu Yuanzhang: "Zhu Zhen, please tell me more about the matter of changing one's native land and returning to one's hometown."

Zhu Zhen suddenly stiffened.

Lao Zhu is not authentic.

In fact, Zhu Min was not at all panicked about being impeached by the ministers just now, because he knew it well and had his own reasons.

Those chieftains are rebelling, do I have to put down the rebellion?After killing them, do we have to deal with the post-rebellion arrangements?

But it was Zhu Zhen who took the initiative to implement the change of local status.

And now, almost all of Yunnan has been reformed.

After Zhu Ming left this time, he also gave instructions to Mu Qiu and others, asking them to continue to find ways to implement it and reform the remaining places as soon as possible.

If there is a reason to evade the past, then it is difficult to explain why he has changed his ways.

As I said before, it’s not that it’s not good to change one’s native land and return to local life, but it needs to be done with time and people.

"Why aren't you talking?" Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Ming with a sneer and said to himself, "You brat, you were so majestic just now. You have to beat him hard in order to show off your power in our hall."

Others looked at each other in disbelief and decided to return to their old ways?what does that mean?
It seems that Zhu Yuanzhang did not announce or make this matter public, so the civil servants did not know that Zhu Zhen had re-measured the land, re-counted the population and re-distributed almost all of Yunnan.

Including the chieftain system, Yunnan has also abolished more than [-]% of it.

And the imperial court didn’t know any of these policies regarding Yunnan’s governance?
This is more than just transgression. You might as well open your own small court in Yunnan.

Zhu Ming finally felt guilty, coughed slightly, and said: "Father, I think that the chieftain system has hidden dangers that are difficult to eliminate. In fact, it can be seen from the continuous rebellion and trouble caused by chieftains in various places in recent years. Those chieftains simply refuse to obey discipline. .”

"Now that our Ming Dynasty is prosperous, they are still like this. What should we do if our Ming Dynasty declines slightly?"

"What's more, the Tatars on the grasslands in the north have not yet been solved, and there are still Jurchen and Goryeo problems in Nagada in the east, not to mention the problems in the south and west."

The south naturally refers to the countries in Southeast Asia, especially Annan, which directly borders the Ming Dynasty, and there have been some frictions recently.

As for the west, it naturally refers to Xinjiang and Tibet, which are not yet part of the Ming Dynasty's territory.

"Be at peace with the outside world first. I don't like the person who said this, but it makes sense. I think it's time to completely resolve this hidden danger."

"So I plan to first implement the policy of returning locals to locals in Yunnan, abolishing all chieftain officers, and replacing them with officials dispatched by the imperial court. After all, there are so many Han people, and there are so many knowledgeable people who have no future. At worst, you can move another 100 million people there."

Zhu Ming said it lightly.

Zhu Yuanzhang almost slapped him in the face with the sole of his shoe.

What you said is simple. I can't imagine how much I have been scolded by others.

100 million?

"Besides that, the most important thing is to get the natives to return to their hearts. Don't set up chieftains anymore. Chieftains have absolute autonomy. Those natives just follow the chieftains to rebel. They have to rebel."

"I also plan to open a school to let the native people and their children know Chinese characters and speak Chinese. I want them to become real people of the Ming Dynasty, not serfs of a certain chieftain."

I have talked about the disadvantages and hidden dangers of the toast system many times.

Today's chieftain system is actually the lord of the European Middle Ages. Although the lord obeys the king, the people in the territory only listen to the lord.

This led to the fact that once a war broke out, the king needed to recruit the domestic lords, big and small, and then the lords would lead the people to form an army to fight the war.

But once the lord's power is too great, it will conflict with the royal power.

To put it bluntly, this is what the princes are like.

For example, during the period of King You of Zhou, the power of the princes was already far greater than that of the Emperor of Zhou, so King You of Zhou could hardly appoint anyone, not to mention that he even tried to kill the princes by beacon fire, which was even more useless.

Zhu Ming had doubts more than once, especially regarding the Hu Yuan incident. Was Lao Zhu just too smart to be confused for a moment?How could you do that?

Even if he wanted to restrain Mu Ying again, he shouldn't do this.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Qi deeply, knowing that this boy was avoiding the important and taking the easy, not to mention that he had already completed the reform and return to his hometown in Yunnan, or even in almost the entire territory.

Judging from this statement at this time, it seems as if he is asking for his consent before doing it.

This is the charm of language art. If you slightly change the order or the causal relationship in time, it will be completely different.

If Zhu Zhen said that he had done those things, I am afraid that the officials would kneel down and beg Zhu Yuanzhang to cut down the feudal vassal, right?

But when he said this now, even among the civil servants, many people showed expressions of deep understanding.

In fact, it’s not just Yunnan. In fact, in the past few years, chieftains have rebelled in Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and other places.

Even Lan Yu and Qu Neng went to suppress it before.

Therefore, not only Yunnan's chieftain system, but all chieftain systems have huge hidden dangers.

"Maybe it's time to straighten things out," Zhu Yuanzhang said.

But his plain words represented extremely terrifying blood.

It can be foreseen that those chieftains cannot easily accept being dismissed.

"Okay, let's stop here for the morning meeting today. We are a little tired too. If we have anything to do, we can wait until the afternoon meeting to talk about it." Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and planned to retreat.

All the civil and military officials were about to kneel down.

Zhu Ming suddenly said: "Father, I have finished reporting on my duties, can I go back? After all, this matter of returning to rural areas is very important, and I have to take the lead personally."

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and wanted to run?There is no door.

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Zhu Chu and said: "You, don't think about going back yet. We chatted with Wei Guogong Xu Da all night last night. What do you think it was for? It's not to promise a marriage to your boy. We have already I have decided to help you propose marriage and betroth Xu Da’s most precious daughter, Xu Miaojin, to you.”

"What?" Zhu Zhen was shocked, thinking that they had never said anything about his rejection yesterday, right?

"Are you so happy?" Zhu Yuanzhang pretended not to know Zhu Chu's true thoughts and looked at Zhu Chu with a smile.

Zhu Ming became angry and said, "Father, I already have someone I like."

"So what? Haven't you met that girl Miaojin? Isn't she good enough for you?" Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly, his expression changing at every turn, and there was a warning in his eyes.

Xu Dake is at the side.

And don’t think that we don’t know that you are holding someone’s baby daughter and riding a horse all the way from Hongdu to Yingtian. Do you still want to be irresponsible?
If Xu Da knew this, I might have to slap you.

Then it won't be the soles of the shoes, but the whip.

Do you really think you can harm Xu Da's daughter at will?We can't agree either.

"No," Zhu Zhen was so anxious that he broke into a cold sweat, and he would not say anything wrong about Xu Miaojin. After all, Xu Miaojin was indeed as beautiful as a flower.

However, he still wanted to say: "My sister Xu is a peerless beauty. Men in the world can choose her at will. Because of this, I think we can respect a woman's wishes? Let my sister choose her." Isn’t it good to love the person you love? Sincerity is more valuable than love, but freedom is more valuable. No, it’s because life is more valuable and love is more valuable.”

Zhu Zhen was so anxious that he was talking nonsense.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought to himself thoughtfully, life is precious, is love more valuable?It's interesting.

"Stop talking nonsense. Your parents ordered the matchmaker to tell you that your marriage is not up to your own nonsense. Xu Dake and I are not dead yet." Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly, got up and left, even the officials' shouts of "Long Live the Mountain" There was no time to keep up with his departure.

Zhu Ming looked at the direction Zhu Yuanzhang was leaving and gritted his teeth, "Old Zhu, you are not honest. The daughter-in-law I found for you is also an extremely beautiful woman. The grandson you gave birth to will definitely be a handsome boy. Can you be a human being?"

"Humph."

Suddenly, a cold hum came.

Zhu Ming turned around and saw Xu Da with a gloomy face, swinging his sleeves and walking outside.

Zhu Zhen was so big that he quickly chased after her, shouting: "Uncle Xu, alas, Uncle Xu, don't walk so fast. Things are not what you think. Listen to my explanation. My sister is really a beauty." , it’s all in vain if you give it to me, hey, just wait for me.”

In the main hall, the civil and military officials looked at each other, what kind of thing is this?
However, the attitudes of the civil officials and military generals were still different. The generals left happily, thinking that the Dian King seemed a bit interesting. "I heard that he is only 14 years old? He is already so brave. When he is 20 years old, I am afraid he will not be able to completely drive the Beiyuan Tatars out of the grassland."

"Although Lan. Although Beiyuan has been destroyed, it is said that new tribes have appeared on the grassland, one is called Wala, and the other is called Tatar. It seems that we still have a place to use."

"But don't forget that King Yan is also very capable."

The generals left while discussing.

During this period, someone almost subconsciously mentioned Lan Yu, so they quickly changed the subject. It would be terrible if someone accidentally overheard and got implicated.

On the other side, the civil servants were also preparing to disperse in twos and threes. Many people had to attend to official duties, and some planned to have something to eat on the way.

The day's work is about to get busy.

"Your Highness."

At this time, some people gathered around Zhu Yunwen.

Including Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng, they were all his cronies.

"I originally wanted to take advantage of the King of Dian's return to Beijing to report his duties, and let His Majesty beat him, or simply punish him. But I didn't expect him to deal with it like this." Huang Zicheng couldn't help but sigh softly: "The vassal kings support their troops and respect themselves, so they It’s a real hidden danger.”

Huang Zicheng had always advocated the plan to reduce the vassal status, and even turned a blind eye to the hidden dangers of the successive chieftain rebellions in the past few years. Instead, he felt that the vassal kings were the biggest threat.

After all, those are external threats, and the feudal princes are the internal threats.

What's more, His Majesty had previously mentioned his plan to "should the King of Yan be established?"

Once the feudal kings continue to develop, there may be situations that threaten the foundation of the country.

In their view, the so-called foundation of the country is naturally the current emperor grandson Zhu Yunwen.

Zhu Yunwen also sighed: "What the teacher said is that the seven kingdoms of the Han Dynasty were not weak, but they were not destroyed in the end."

"Your Highness, Zi Xing (Huang Zicheng's alias), this is not the place for discussion," Qitai reminded the two of them that this was still within the imperial palace.

The group of people then stopped talking and prepared to leave.

Looking at Zhu Min again, he finally caught up with Xu Da in front of the palace gate.

"Uncle Xu, why are you walking so fast? Are you in a hurry to go home for dinner?" Zhu Min called Xu Da.

Xu Da rolled his eyelids angrily and said, "Our daughter is so disgusted by you. If we don't leave, are we waiting to be laughed at?"

Zhu Chu knew that he had misunderstood, and said quickly: "So I didn't tell you that my sister Xu is beautiful and fragrant, even if she is a fish and a geese, the moon is shy and the flowers are shy. I am not worthy of it. And my sister Xu was originally I ran away just to escape from my marriage, and moreover from my marriage."

Xu Da suddenly felt guilty.

He also knows his daughter's character. If possible, he certainly doesn't want to force his daughter to get married, not to mention that she is not willing to do so.

But this is the marriage promised by Zhu Yuanzhang, what can he do?

"Of course I know you're not worthy," Xu Da said.

"Huh?" Zhu Ming was unhappy. I said this because I was being humble. But it's wrong for you to say that. Who are you looking down on?Believe it or not, I’ll chase it and show it to you?
No, you can’t chase me.

"But you shouldn't tell me, but your Majesty," Xu Da reminded Zhu Zhen. Only if Zhu Yuanzhang changes his mind can this matter count, otherwise it will not count no matter what they say.

Zhu Yu sighed. Of course he knew this, but the problem was that he also understood what Zhu Yuanzhang meant. It would be difficult for Mu Qiu to become a concubine.

Otherwise, let's boil Lao Zhu to death?

When the time comes, I will raise my arms and launch a campaign of appeasement. When I become the emperor, who will become the queen is not a matter of my words?

Not convinced?I'll kill you nine tribes, believe it or not.

Not afraid?What about the ten tribes?

"Commander, congratulations on your good news, Commander." A man suddenly came over, smiling and clasping his fists in a gesture of congratulations.

Xu Da quickly returned the favor.

Zhu Zhen was surprised. He was not surprised by anything else, but that Xu Da had some special respect for this general?

"King Dian, this is General Guo Ying, Concubine Ning's brother. Come and pay homage," Xu Da turned around and introduced Zhu Chu.

Zhu Ming's heart moved, Concubine Ning?It seems to have some impression.

Wait, isn’t that the current master of the harem?

If the emperor is the ruler of the world, then the queen is the ruler of the harem.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang decided not to create a new queen after the death of Queen Ma, so there was no second queen.

But someone has to take care of the harem.

So there was Concubine Li Shu as the head of the harem before. Later Concubine Li Shu also died, and Concubine Guo Ning took over. She was the queen and was in charge of the Sixth Palace.

Because Zhu Zhen was born in the 12th year of Hongwu, that is, 17, and Concubine Guo Ning took over the harem around [-], that is, around the [-]th year of Hongwu.

So Zhu Chu was still a little impressed.

Moreover, this Concubine Guo Ning was Zhu Tan's mother, the King of Luhuang, and the vassal king to whom Wang Fu once served.

Zhu Zhen finally remembered the relationship.

No wonder even Xu Da respects this person. Although Concubine Guo Ning is not a queen, she is almost the same.

But Zhu Zhen didn't need to care, so he just handed it over casually.

Guo Ying, on the other hand, looked Zhu Chu up and down and said with approval: "The bravery of the King of Dian is astonishing to me even when I am waiting in the capital. He destroyed Silun Fa, attacked with swords and swords fiercely, and put down countless rebellions. He is truly a hero. also."

Zhu Ming was embarrassed by the praise, even though it was all true.

"Now that Your Highness has become Marshal Xu's son-in-law, getting the Marshal's true inheritance from now on will only bring you to a higher level. I really hope that one day I can go into battle to kill the enemy under His Majesty's command. It would be best to drive out all the Tatars." Guo Ying clenched his fist.

Guo Ying is not young, and as early as when Zhu Yuanzhang was still under Guo Zixing, Zhu Yuanzhang passed by the home of Guo Shanfu, a fellow countryman, and Guo Shanfu thought that he would be rich and powerful in the future, so he not only married his beloved daughter to Zhu Yuanzhang , that is, Concubine Guo Ning, and also asked her two sons, Guo Ying and Guo Xing, to follow him.

Moreover, Guo Ying was also a fierce general. Not only did he make great contributions following Zhu Yuanzhang, he was the one who suggested Chang Yuchun attack Wang Baobao at night when Chang Yuchun attacked Wang Baobao.

Guo Ying even personally led a dozen cavalrymen to sneak into Wang Baobao's camp, and then used artillery as a signal, allowing Chang Yuchun to lead an ambush and defeat Wang Baobao.

At the same time, Guo Ying also followed Xu Da to pacify the Central Plains, and also followed Fu Youde in the southern expedition to Yunnan.

It can be said that he was a victorious general who fought in both the south and the north.

No wonder he calls Xu Da Marshal.

However, with Xu Da's identity and experience, I'm afraid he can afford to be called "marshal" by everyone in the early Ming Dynasty, because even Chang Yuchun once worked under Xu Da's tent.

I'm afraid only Tang He's status can compete with Xu Da's.

Faced with Guo Ying's praise, Xu Da snorted: "I'm afraid this kid is not happy yet."

Guo Ying was stunned, not happy?
"Uncle Xu, what you said is obviously because I, Sister Xu, are not happy, okay?" Zhu Ming quickly explained.

Xu Da glared at him, saying, "You dare to say that Xu Miaojin once escaped from marriage? Try it?"
Isn’t it embarrassing enough?

Zhu Zhen had no choice but to flatten his mouth and stop talking.

But he looked at Guo Ying again and saw that although Guo Ying was not young, she didn't seem to be very old. She should be about the same age as Mu Ying?

With a thought in his heart, Zhu Ming couldn't help but said: "Uncle Xu, it seems you are planning to recommend Uncle Guo Ying to me?"

Guo Ying was stunned for a moment.

Zhu Ming likes to close relationships in this way, especially with the talents he values. Moreover, with the relationship between Guo Ying and Guo Ningfei, calling them uncle is not a disadvantage.

And as Zhu Yuanzhang's son and a proper prince, it doesn't matter even if he calls Guo Ying by his first name, it does make people more comfortable.

But Guo Ying looked at Xu Da with a wry smile and wanted to ask, Commander, do you want to rebel?
Good guy, you can't recommend yourself to the King of Dian or anything like that.

"Stop talking nonsense, and you are not afraid that your father will slap you with the sole of his shoe again." Xu Da also couldn't laugh or cry, and said to Zhu Zhen, "Okay, you can go and do whatever you want, but you are not allowed to leave privately. Yingtian."

Xu Da was really afraid of this stupid kid, so he ran back to Yunnan by himself.

Due to the relationship between Xu Da and Zhu Yuanzhang, and Zhu Yuanzhang's intention to make Zhu Qi his son-in-law, Xu Da's attitude towards Zhu Qi was very casual.

At the same time, Xu Da also knew that Zhu Yuanzhang was already dissatisfied with Zhu Yu's previous actions. If he dared to run away by himself, just wait, Zhu Yuanzhang would really make Zhu Yu a commoner.

Thinking of this, Xu Da got a headache. My poor daughter had to meet such a thing.
