The six-dimensional pictures of emperors of all dynasties were exposed, and the ancestors panicked

Chapter 596: I don't want to be a marquis, I just want the sea to be peaceful

Yanhan·Lingdi Period
"Oh..."

Liu Hong held up his face, amazed.

"Everyone, tell me."

The young Liu Bei, who already had a rather bad temper, almost burst into curses!

This is chicken feathers!
If you replace Zhu Houcong with Zhao Gou, Yan Song with Qin Hui, Zhu Wan, Zhang Jing and others with Yue Fei and others, there will be no seamless transition!
This is just chicken feather talk!

Cao Cao rested his tablet on his elbow and shook his head.
"It's not hard to see people carrying loads."

"What these people are most capable of doing now is criticizing those who do things."

"Open your mouth to talk about etiquette, close your mouth to talk about ancestral rules."

"Compared with the Song Dynasty, even if the emperors and officials of the Ming Dynasty wanted to be good parents, they lacked the conditions to implement the intention of loving and protecting the people."

Liu Hong held his chin in his hand and looked at the ministers who agreed with him, and sighed in his heart.

In a word, the Ming Dynasty was too bloated.

Civil officials regard the emperor as a tool to climb up the ladder, and the emperor regards civil officials as a tool to gain power.

It’s not bad. At least the officials of our Han Dynasty have not yet become so cruel and crazy.

Although people knew about the farting in Luoshui and the regicide in the street, the sacredness of the emperor of the Han Dynasty was still maintained.

and so……

Liu Hong was in a daze.

All you have to do is maintain this sacredness.

……

During the Song Dynasty and Renzong Period
"Ming officials could only vent their energy and frustration on moral etiquette."

Ouyang Xiu stood up, bowed to Zhao Zhen and said:
"Moral etiquette not only overrides everything, but also becomes an obsession in their hearts."

"Everything is reduced to morality, and only the omnipresent moral etiquette is real."

"However, once morality and propriety are elevated to such a high level, there is no longer any truth in the realm of state administration."

"This is where Zhu Houcong's shortsightedness lies."

Ouyang Xiu looked at the emperor with a solemn expression.

"Zhu Houcong used grand rituals to gain the power of the emperor, which was no less than Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's action of abolishing all schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone."

“Both of them mastered the shaping and interpretation of national consciousness and the belonging of the people of the world.”

"But Emperor Wu of Han established the management system of Zhongchao, equal transportation, salt and iron monopoly, etc. on this basis."

Ouyang Xiu paused and continued:

"Let's not talk about whether these systems are good or bad, but based on consciousness, Emperor Wu of Han did provide effective management tools."

"But Zhu Houcong didn't."

Zhao Zhen understood now.

It’s still those two old words.

political reform.

Zhu Houcong was the person most likely to promote reforms in the Ming Dynasty.

Because he reshaped the Ming Emperor's right of interpretation.

"Uncle Yong, what you said makes sense."

"But you overlooked one thing."

“Reform requires financial support.”

"And the Zhu family emperor doesn't seem to have this thing in his mind."

Zhao Zhen looked up at the sky.

"With their finances..."

"It should be a mess by now."

[July of the 1556th year of Jiajing ()]

【Due to the officers and soldiers' ineffective suppression, Japanese pirates frequently appeared. 】

[Governor Hu Zongxian recommended Qi Jiguang as a lieutenant general to be in charge of defending the Ningbo, Shaoxing and Taizhou areas where Japanese pirates frequently appeared.]

[The pillars of the country officially debut. 】

……

{The two Shao Baos of the Ming Dynasty both had great merits in stabilizing the country and protecting the people, but one was wrongly killed and the other died of grief and anger. How sad!}

{One of the top ten generals in China in terms of comprehensive ability and morality, he devoted all his efforts to the mess of the Ming Dynasty, but in his later years, his younger brother died early, his wife ran away, his family was broken up, he fought all his life and got sick all his life, no one took care of him and he couldn't afford medicine, and finally died of illness.}
{It's a pity for these capable civil officials and generals, such as Zhang Juzheng, Qi Jiguang, Yu Dayou, Yuan Chonghuan, etc. They deserved a better era and emperor.}
{Yuan Chonghuan? Does he deserve it? He said he was awesome but couldn't deliver, so he deserved to be beheaded. Let's learn about the military order.}
{You just speak without thinking. Go check the history books and compare them yourself, you ignorant person.}
{… Let’s skip over these two. To be honest, there are very few monarchs in various dynasties who can be as powerful as the Western Han Dynasty, with seven generations of powerful rulers. Most of them are prosperous for three generations and then decline for the third generation.}
{Is Emperor Hui of Han also considered a heroic ruler?}

{Isn't Emperor Hui of Han considered a heroic ruler?}
{…I was speechless for a moment.}

Northern Qi Dynasty: Cultural and Propaganda Period
Gao Yang lay on the ground, propped up his head and looked at the sky.

"Heh, you said that my Gao family is mentally ill."

"I think the Zhu family is no less capable."

……

Northern Zhou Dynasty: Emperor Wu Period
"This passion... was wasted..."

Yuwen Yong was very confused.

Why did later generations not criticize Zhu Houcong as harshly as they did Huizong, Qinzong and Ming Yingzong?
Based on his attitude towards foreign wars, he should have scolded Fei Tian, right?

……

Tang Dynasty. "Died of grief and anger..."

Li Shimin no longer knew what to say to Jiajing.

"you……"

Are you going to emulate Zhu Qizhen?

……

On the canopy.

The young general was reading a book.

After a moment, he picked up the pen and wrote a line of words.

"I have no desire to be a noble, but I wish the seas would be peaceful"

……

[Qi Jiguang, courtesy name Yuanjing, pseudonym Nantang, changed his pseudonym to Mengzhu in his later years.]

[He was born into a hereditary military officer family in Dengzhouwei, Shandong.]

[The ancestral home was originally in Dongmu, Shandong. Due to the war at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the sixth-generation ancestor Qi Xiang led his family to move to Changyi Township, Dingyuan, Haozhou, near Fengyang.]

[Qi Xiang had followed Zhu Yuanzhang in his campaigns and made great contributions to the founding of the Ming Dynasty. He was later killed in the battle to conquer Yunnan.]

【Zhu Yuanzhang thought of him as a founding hero and appointed his son as the commander of Dengzhou Guard, a position that was passed down from generation to generation.】

【Since then, the Qi family has been serving in Dengzhou. 】

……

Song Dynasty: Zhezong Period
"Does this founding general of the Ming Dynasty have something to say about him?"

Zhao Xu was somewhat confused for a moment.

If our ancestors did not die at the hands of Zhu Yuanzhang, does that mean their descendants must die at the hands of the emperor?

"The title of Marquis is not my intention, but I hope the sea will be peaceful."

Zhao Xu saw the lofty ambition and pure heart of loyalty to the country behind this poem.

"Pity……"

……

[Qi Jiguang's father, Qi Jingtong, was resolute and studious, had military talent, and had made many military achievements. He served successively as the commander of Shandong's military preparations for the Japanese invasion, the commander of Daning, and the deputy general of the Shenjiying in the capital.]

[Because Qi Jingtong was 56 years old when he had his son Qi Jiguang, he was very strict with his son.]

[He not only taught Qi Jiguang how to read and write, and taught him martial arts, but also often taught him some principles of conduct in society.]

[Although the Qi family was born into a military family, their family was very poor. ]

[When Qi Jiguang was ten years old, his father returned to his hometown to support his grandmother, and life became even more difficult.]

[Under the influence of this family atmosphere, Qi Jiguang was already well versed in astronomy and geography when he was young.]

In the 1544nd year of Jiajing (), Qi Jingtong was seriously ill and asked Qi Jiguang to go to Beijing to handle the succession procedures. However, he died before Qi Jiguang returned.

【Thus, Qi Jiguang, who was only seventeen years old, inherited the hereditary position of deputy commander of the Dengzhou Guard in Shandong. 】

[The poem "Deep in the Shadows" was written by him at this time.]

……

Ming dynasty.

"Jiajing!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw these past events, he felt so angry that his teeth were itching.

He didn't know how far Qi Jiguang could go.

But later generations compared him with Yu Qian, which shows that his achievements were no less!
And such a minister finally ended up with a tragic ending!

"Historical records show that the emperor of the Han Dynasty was mean and unkind."

"Now it seems that my Zhu family is better than my predecessor!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little desperate.

I was probably wrong from the beginning...

The fall of the Han Dynasty was due to the glory of Zhaolie.

The fall of the Tang Dynasty was recorded in the song of the King of Qin.

Even the fall of the Song Dynasty was caused by the Battle of Yashan!

He now doesn't even dare to think about what the end of the Ming Dynasty would be...

Wouldn't it be applause?

……

Ming Dynasty Jiajing Period
"Stop talking nonsense!"

Zhu Houcong stood up suddenly!
