Chapter 185 The Shame of Sustainability
At the same time that the Ming Dynasty’s outer court began to investigate the abuses of bribery, the inner court also began to investigate the abuses of bribery.
The investigation of eunuch corruption is very magical.
It was so magical that when Zhu Yijun looked at Feng Bao's memorial in front of him, he thought he had read it wrong. Just like a prostitute has many lovers, it is natural for eunuchs to be corrupt since ancient times.
Zhu Yijun told Feng Bao that the ship of the Ming Dynasty was leaking from the top, mainly due to the affairs of the palace. Zhu Yijun had reservations about the corruption of eunuchs. Reservation means not objecting, and not objecting means that Don't go too far. I'll just treat it as if I don't know.
Feng Bao was very aware of the emperor's attitude, but the problem was that Zhang Hong was eager to kill his ancestor, and bribery and appeasement in the palace were even more serious.
Feng Bao had to investigate the eunuch's corruption because it had affected the normal operation of the inner court.
Feng Yu, Jin Cheng and other eunuchs from Nanjing, embezzled a total of more than 324,000 taels of silver for the renovation of the Nanjing Imperial Palace and were executed.
Chen Bao, the weaving eunuch of Suzhou and Hangzhou, and other weaving eunuchs, embezzled more than 35,000 pieces of silk made in Suzhou and Hangzhou, including nearly 3,000 pieces of imperial satin.
Jin Cheng was from Feng Bao, and Chen Bao was from Zhang Hong. They argued at the same time that the beheading was not because of how much money they were greedy for, but because they touched their hands where they shouldn't be.
The first is the renovation of the Nanjing Imperial Palace. The emperor does not live in Nanjing, but the money cannot be taken, especially when the central axis of the Beiya Palace is completely burned, and the imperial satin dares to steal three thousand pieces of satin. Only 5,000 pieces of this kind of silk, which is exclusively used by the royal family, comes to Beijing a year!
"Zhang Daban, don't you object? There are your people here too." Zhu Yijun looked at Feng Bao's memorial in his hand and asked Zhang Hong for his opinion.
“If you don’t fight those who are diligent or lazy, you will fight those who are short-sighted. The national funds are empty. If you don’t think about your Majesty and the Lord, you only think about yourself. This is what you deserve.” Zhang Hong did not object to Feng Bao The inner court really wants to kill this corruption trend. In the physical sense, it means killing directly.
Zhang Hong believes that both groups of people deserve to die. Whether the eunuchs are from the old ancestor or the second ancestor, they are all His Majesty's people first. If they stretch their hands to places they shouldn't, they should die.
Zhu Yijun wondered for a while, and said while reviewing: "Then let's kill him and leave a whole body."
This is Zhu Yijun's greatest mercy.
The bites in the palace were more direct and bloody than those in the outer court. According to the palace rules, these eunuchs were to be cut into pieces, but Zhu Yijun still gave him the last dignity.
The name of the weaving eunuch who succeeded Suzhou and Hangzhou was Sun Long.
The place where Zhu Yijun handled the memorials was in the Wenhua Hall, which should have been in the Qianqing Palace, but the Qianqing Palace was ordered. Zhu Yijun said that he would send it to Cining Palace for review. Zhang Juzheng disagreed. The reason for the disagreement was very strange. Zhang Juzheng It is inconvenient because official documents need to be delivered and travel to the construction site, so they can easily be lost.
Later, Zhu Yijun discovered that Zhang Juzheng’s real reason was not that it was inconvenient, but that he really didn’t trust anyone.
When there was a fire in the palace, Zhang Juzheng suspected that Queen Mother Li was one of the instigators behind the scenes, and her purpose was to continue to dominate the court.
The fire occurred after Empress Dowager Li moved to Cining Palace. After the fire, Zhu Yijun moved to Cining Palace temporarily. Before moving to the palace, Empress Dowager Li held the power of reviewing memorials in Qianqing Palace. In order to prevent the power from being transferred from It is reasonable for him to lose his money in his hands and collude with outsiders to start a fire to burn down the palace.
And Wu Qingbo Li Wei had business dealings with the clan party, especially Zhang Siwei.
Zhang Juzheng's expression was very obscure. He talked about history, the power struggle between Song Renzong and Liu E and Queen Mother Liu, the battle between Emperor Shizong and Queen Mother Zhang, Empress Lu in the early Han Dynasty, and Empress Zetian in the early Tang Dynasty. It talks about the mysterious death of Zhu Jianji, the son of Emperor Jingtai, the childlessness of Emperor Jingtai, and the incident of seizing the family.
The death of Prince Zhu Jianji, the son of Emperor Jingtai, even in the historical records of the country, there is only one word "died". It does not say death of illness or sudden illness, only the word "died" makes people think.
Power makes people look ugly, power makes people want to stop, and power is poisonous to people's hearts. Zhang Juzheng was afraid that the top level of the Ming Dynasty would be torn apart and cause trouble.
Zhu Yijun stunned Zhang Juzheng with one sentence. He told Zhang Juzheng: Starting from March of the second year of Wanli, because Li Wei, the uncle of Wu Qing, asked for 4,000 silver to repair his family's house, there was a commotion in which his relatives petitioned for repairs to their family's house. When the memorials were sent to the Qianqing Palace, the Holy Mother no longer read the memorials, and I personally marked them all.
Empress Dowager Li delegated power much earlier than the courtiers thought. After Wu Qingbo and Li Wei caused a little trouble, Empress Dowager Li stopped reading the memorial. Anyway, the little emperor understood it and handled it appropriately. , Why did Queen Mother Li bother with this?
There has been a lot of money in the palace recently. The emperor rewarded Uncle Wu Qing and Li Wei during the holidays. Sometimes the money was as much as five hundred and one thousand taels, and sometimes as little as one hundred or two hundred. One year a year. About ten thousand taels.
After Zhang Juzheng was stunned by the little emperor, he was stunned for a long time before saying: The virtue of the Holy Mother is matched with Kun Yuan, which contains ten thousand exchanges and develops; Your Majesty, the good luck of the Qian Dynasty, rises to the world and rises to peace.
It is normal for Zhang Juzheng to have this kind of misunderstanding.
According to general practice, the contradiction between the emperor and the queen mother, who is at the pinnacle of power in the world, is opposite and unified. There have been conflicts since ancient times, and they are very violent. She just returned to power in such an understatement?
It was such an understatement to return to power.
Zhu Yijun still agreed to deal with the memorial in Wenhua Palace. Zhang Juzheng did not believe in the people's hearts and only looked at the outcome of the matter.
After the fire burned for more than half a month, Empress Dowager Li's focus was entirely on the Qing Palace, and she did not think about the memorial at all...
In the end, Zhang Juzheng was convinced that Li The Queen Mother is really not keen on power.
"Uncle Ning Yuan left Pinglu Fort and marched for 130 miles, killed 320 thieves, forced back the barbarian tribes that invaded Qinglong Fort, and then returned to the pass." Zhu Yijun took out a memorial. , this is a memorial written by Zhang Xueyan and Hou Yuzhao to ask for credit for Li Chengliang.
This is the benefit of the existence of the Daning Guards. Last year, the five Tuman Khalkha troops quickly attacked Liaodong. The Daning Guards advanced to attack the enemy and were sure to save them, so they quickly retreated from Hai. This spring, the Tubarbarians invaded DaNing. Ningwei and Liaodong sent troops from Pinglu Fort to attack the enemy and save them, so the barbarians had to retreat.
This is the situation where offense and defense are facing each other.
Tuman Khan is blessed. He is served by two newly promoted martial artists of the Ming Dynasty, Nan Qi and Bei Li. How lucky is Tuman Khan?
Zhu Yijun studied it in front of the official screen, and then approved the memorial.
The military value, economic value, and political value of the Daning Guard are unquestionable. Zhu Yijun would rather let a bitch like Zhang Siwei dance around for two more days than to stand firm in the Daning Guard.
Zhu Yijun specially ordered five bottles of Guojiao sweet potato roast and sent them to Li Chengliang as a reward and a thank you. The war did not occur in the Liaodong area. Li Chengliang could not move, but Li Chengliang moved and was forced to do so. Manhan didn't dare to do anything without permission. In this way, everyone had dignity, which was a good thing.
Even Uncle Ning Yuan was worried about the complete transformation of Liaodong into a vassal town.
Zhu Yijun picked up another memorial. "According to Yunnan Censor Guo Tingwu's words, in the early days of the Republic of China, there was a Baoyuan Bureau in the capital and a Huoquan Bureau in each province. Since the Jiajing period, the provincial bureaus have been discontinued and civilian use has been in short supply. As a result, the copper produced in Yunnan cannot be cast in drums, but is purchased from distant places at high prices. Overseas, what are the benefits and harms of enriching others and harming oneself? "
This passage from Yunnan's censor is very interesting. It talks about the money law of the Ming Dynasty. The Baoyuan Bureau of the capital and the local currency bureau were responsible for issuing coins. , then it stopped, and the people had no money to use it. The imperial court did not use Yunnan copper, but bought it overseas at a huge price. Did the fertilizer flow to outsiders? Would you rather be a friendly country than a domestic slave?
A memorial not only explains the institutional design of the Ming Dynasty's Money Law, but also explains the time and reasons for the corruption of the Money Law. It then clamored for money to be minted, and also criticized the imperial court for buying copper outside the country and not developing it at home.
Now Yunnan wants to keep the coin minting in Yunnan, and the imperial court now has money, and wants to mint money in Chenglingji, one of the three major islands, which is Yueyang Jianggang, and invest five years At that time, all the minted money proceeds were used to dredge the Yangtze River waterway and strengthen communication between Yunnan and the hinterland.
Of course Yunnan wants to keep the business of making money in Yunnan. Once it is done, it will be a pillar industry and a vital interest, just like the northwest wants to put the woolen official factory in the northwest, not Yongding, which is twenty miles away from the capital. Riverside.
In order to keep the money-making business in Yunnan, Yunnan's censor was very determined. He changed his past behavior of Yunnan being far away from the border and not participating in the party struggle between North Korea and China. He directly impeached Zhang Juzheng for the sake of his hometown. Zhang Juzheng, the leader of the Chu Party, is from Huguang. He set up the money making place in Yueyang to benefit his hometown!
The imperial court's idea is to put it into practice. Minting coins in Yunnan will definitely form a barrier for copper coins in Yunnan. History has proven it.
Zhu Yijun Zhu approved this memorial and was still casting money in Yueyang.
But it was also promised that after five years, Yunnan locals could mint copper coins to compete with coins minted in the hinterland.
There are so many dilemmas to solve. It is difficult for everyone, so we just have to do it.
Yueyang has the first-mover advantage when making money, and Yunnan has the advantage of origin when making money. In the end, whoever makes more money and whoever makes money well will be the leader.
Cricket fighting was a passive skill of the Ming Emperor. Emperor Xuanzong liked cricket fighting very much.
The Criminal Division gave a report to Hao Weiqiao against the tax collection in the tax office, saying that governance should not come before caring for the people, and people should not care about the balance of money. The tax collection in the tax office was excessive and excessive, and there were widespread complaints. Zhu Yijun directly drew Marked with an ×, this means that tax collection is not based on the basic principles of tax collection, and it is not enough to collect taxes on ordinary people.
The imperial court collects taxes, and the powerful are transferred downwards. If the imperial court does not collect taxes, the powerful will not annex, prey on the common people, or exploit them harshly?
So not only tax collection must be done, but tax collection must be armed.
Shu Ao of Huai'an Prefecture reported that on the tenth day of the first lunar month in Dongzuo Mountain of Huai'an Prefecture, he saw twenty-two men on the beach, with strange shapes and clothes. When asked, they all shook their heads and said nothing. One of them was holding a plywood official document. Submit a letter: Go to Jeju to pay tribute and other items. He couldn't speak pronunciation, but could write Dongfengshui and other words. He was escorted to the Ministry by an official.
The ships of the twenty-two envoys who paid tribute to the foreigners from Jeju Island were small single-masted boats. When they set out, there were more than two hundred people, but by the time they arrived in the Ming Dynasty, there were only twenty-two people. This fully explains , how dangerous shipping is.
This is a tribute envoy, hoping that Ming Dynasty can open a sea route to Jeju Island.
Zhu Yijun and Zhu Pili were handled well. The geographical location of Jeju Island is extremely important. It can not only deter North Korea but also invade Japan. If handled properly, it will be a springboard for the Ming Dynasty.
Wang Xijue, who was in charge of the Hanlin Academy, and Fan Yingjiu of the Imperial Academy jointly submitted a memorial, saying that there was a treacherous person in the Imperial Academy, the Imperial Academy released money and gained three points to amass money. For a good plan, plagiarism, fishing and hunting are the shortcuts. If you live in a regular life, your virtues will be unworthy, but if you are an official, your functions will be very effective.
"Feng Daban, go and ask what's going on." Zhu Yijun put away the memorial and asked Feng Bao to ask.
Zhu Yijun was far less busy in dealing with government affairs than Felipe II. The council meetings he held gave him eye drops every day, and Zhu Yijun’s councils were the six yamen. These yamen themselves were among the decision-makers of the empire. First, the Nine Qing Court Meetings decided major affairs of the country, so most of the ministerial meetings could be resolved. This was also the scope of power defined during the Yongle period.
During the Wanli period, major affairs of the state had to be discussed by the imperial court, of course. Everything that could be discussed by the imperial court was not a trivial matter. Small matters were all made up of Wenyuan Pavilion floats. The Chief of Ceremonies approved the red, Zhu Yijun issued a seal to resolve it, and the imperial gate listened to the government. , should be approved, summoned ministers, etc., Zhu Yijun very diligently fulfilled the agreement he made with Zhang Juzheng.
Feng Bao came back soon and answered everything in detail.
It turns out that someone lent money to the Imperial College. Generally speaking, it was a campus loan, so that the graduates of the Imperial College could experience the charm of spending in advance. The brothels of the Ming Dynasty, the four treasures of the study, calligraphy and painting, garden outings, poetry clubs, etc. It was not cheap at all. Zhang Juzheng had calculated for the emperor that if a student of the Imperial College participated in all social activities, he would spend more than forty taels of silver a year.
You must know that the Ming Dynasty’s capital army only earned eighteen taels of silver a year, and a prison student would spend more than forty taels.
Therefore, there were treacherous and cunning people gathering near the Imperial College, and they began to lend money to the students of the Imperial College, making a profit of three points.
“Three profit margins, 3%, isn’t much.” Zhu Yijun thought about it and originally planned to make a cross.
Feng Bao and Zhang Hong looked at each other and saw that His Majesty was about to put pen to paper. Zhang Hong hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, three points is the monthly interest. It means borrowing one hundred taels of silver and earning three taels a month. But the annual profit is thirty-six taels, and Runyue is included in it. "What the hell? Monthly interest is three cents!" Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Hong blankly, it was at least 36%. The profit margin is nothing short of usury.
Feng Bao explained: "Your Majesty, those who lend money also depend on who they choose. If someone borrows money from a rich and powerful person, the interest rate is three cents. If the person borrows money from a poor family, the monthly interest rate is five cents, that is. The interest rate of one hundred taels of silver per month is at least fifty taels per year. "If you calculate the annual interest rate, it is over 36% to 60%."
Zhu Yijun. He is not an emperor who regards money as a number. The pure profit rate of the woolen cloth official factory is only about 35%. For this, Wang Chonggu has to pay 10%. The money placed in front of the Imperial College is more than the woolen cloth official factory earns! He immediately said: "You are crazy! Let Yin Zeng Tongheng of Shuntian Prefecture take the people immediately!"
"Most of the supervisors in the Imperial College are our officials in the future. How can we do this because of the money?" What kind of integrity is there!"
"Your Majesty, the person who put the money is Dingguo Gong Xu Wenbi's people," Feng Bao reminded His Majesty, this is the business of Dingguo Gong. If you really want to touch it, you have to do it. Ask Dingguo Gongfu what he meant.
Zhu Yijun was a little unfamiliar with Xu Wenbi. After a moment of reaction, he remembered who Ding Guogong Xu Wenbi was, the first high priest of the Ming Dynasty.
From the Jiajing period to the present, Xu Wenbi has sacrificed everything on behalf of the emperor. The birthdays and memorial days of all emperors and queens in the past dynasties have been performed by Xu Wenbi on his behalf.
The Duke of Cheng, Zhu Xizhong, the Duke of England, Zhang Rong, and the Duke of Ding, Xu Wenbi, are collectively known as the trio of high priests of the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Xizhong passed away, and the British Duke was old. Xu Wenbi, the Duke of Dingguo, began to preside over the sacrifices. Xu Wenbi was either doing the sacrifices or on the way to the sacrifices.
Descendants of Zhongshan King Xu Da.
"Call Duke Dingguo." Zhu Yijun thought for a moment and said, "Call Yuan Fu again."
Zhu Yijun is very good at pretending to be powerful!
When everyone arrived, Xu Wenbi disobeyed, so Zhu Yijun cried and said, Sir, look at it. You said that you want to declare the old chapter to rectify academic affairs and cultivate talents. Should it be forbidden to put money at the entrance of the Imperial College? After appointing him as the father of the country, he did not sympathize with the difficulties of the country. Why is it so difficult to do something? Sir, please deal with Xu Wenbi!
After Xu Wenbi arrived, Zhu Yijun and Xu Wenbi chatted for a while, asked about Xu Wenbi’s family situation, and asked about the sacrifice, and then started to talk about the business: "This is where money is placed in front of the Imperial College gate. Students Enjoyment is changing in every possible way, can we stop this business? "
Zhu Yijun insists on one thing only three times, and he talks about it in a good voice, but will not discuss it the third time.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I will ask them to stop when I return." Xu Wenbi was also unambiguous. The emperor even spoke in person and directly chose to surrender.
The investment was too fast, which made Zhu Yijun a little stunned. In order to make money, the local people in Yunnan began to confront Zhang Juzheng, and they would not give in!
Arrived here at Xu Wenbi, are you so happy?
Zhu Yijun said slightly uneasily: "Ding Guogong is the founder of the Ming Dynasty. This matter cannot be ambiguous. The swordsmen and pen officials in this court use pens to kill people. Now they are just reporting and saying things. If Also, I'm afraid I'm going to be impeached."
Xu Wenbi also said helplessly: "Your Majesty, you don't know. In fact, these cunning people are doing this business in the name of Dingguo Palace. Every year, two thousand taels of silver are sent to the government for shelter. This has been happening since the Yongle period, and it has happened repeatedly. Your Majesty will arrest you when you need to.” It has a long history and is related to the Duke of Dingguo, but it is not accurate to say that it is a transaction of the Duke of Dingguo. In short, it is a matter of bribery and appeasement. The court has to deal with it, and Xu Wenbi has no objection.
The main livelihood of his family is to offer sacrifices on behalf of the emperor. Every time he makes sacrifices to the court, he will be rewarded, and it is very generous.
Zhu Yijun said very confidently: "In this case, Zhang Daban, take a python pattern double-breasted crane cloak and designate the Duke as the hero of the country. It embodies the excitement of the country. I am very pleased and give an additional ten pieces of satin. Nine bottles of Pi Guojiao to reward Duke Ding for his hard work." "I thank you for your kindness." After Xu Wenbi thanked him, he took the reward and left happily.
"Xu Wenbi agreed so easily?" Zhu Yijun always felt that something was wrong. He was cutting off people's wealth and killing their parents. Is this really just a shelter as Xu Wenbi said?
Zhang Juzheng thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, Wu Xun has already declined during the Zhengtong years. Until today, there has not been much improvement."
Zhang Juzheng thought about it again and again, and found that this matter was not easy to explain. He decided to make some bypasses so that His Majesty could understand Wu Xun's position in the court.
He bowed his head and said: "In the eighth year of Jiajing, we conducted an inventory of the land owned by Xun Qi in the capital. We found that the Dingguo Palace had a total of more than 500 hectares, and the Chengguo Palace had a total of 1,300 hectares. After being ordered to return the fields, Long Qingsan According to the annual calculation, the Dingguo Palace has 250 hectares, and the Chengguo Palace only has more than 300 hectares. This is a reward from the past dynasties. "
"The Qianguo Palace in Yunnan has more than 20,000 hectares. Even Xu Jie has 4,200 acres. "
Using the means of production to measure the status of Ming Dynasty Wuxun, the Dingguo Palace does not have much strength, and the family only has a total of more than 25,000 acres of land. , Xu Jie has 420,000 acres of farmland.
The biggest livelihood of Xu Wenbi's family is to offer sacrifices on behalf of the emperor. As for the loan from the Imperial College, it is similar to what Xu Wenbi said. Collecting loan sharks here really requires shelter.
Zhu Yijun nodded and said: "Then take someone."
Soon, the issue of the Imperial College's money release was resolved. Except for Dingguo Gongfu, this money release issue The cunning people also sent money to other princes' offices, to the princes and princes, and to the Wucheng Military and Horse Division and the Shuntian Mansion. However, it was a general trend in the dynasty to rectify the academic and political affairs, so no one came forward to report it. .
On the sixth day of May, Zhu Yijun came to the foundation of Huangji Hall again. This time, Huangji Hall was opened to receive the third lady, mainly the Ministry of Rites and court officials were present.
Of course there is no need to open the Huangji Hall. There is no need to open the Huangji Hall with only the foundation left?
Sanniang’s appearance is indeed a disaster for the country and the people, otherwise she would not be able to frighten An Dahan’s fans. Sanniang is also a ruthless person. The person who can take An Dahan away is waiting outside the Meridian Gate. The third lady was very nervous. This was her first time in Beijing to meet the saint.
As soon as she entered the door, she was stunned.
I am not shocked by the power of the Ming Dynasty Palace, but I am shocked by the empty central axis that can be seen at a glance!
Empty, nothing!
She had heard a little bit that the three main halls of the Ming Palace were burned down, but she had no idea that the Ming Emperor would actually receive envoys from foreign vassals on the bare foundation!
Ma Ziqiang, the Minister of Rites, and other courtiers heard that the emperor insisted on receiving the vassal envoys on the foundation, and the memorials poured into Wenyuan Pavilion like snowflakes. Then, under the leadership of Ma Ziqiang and others, nearly a hundred people The court officials came to Fu Que outside the Meridian Gate and asked the emperor to take back his order.
The face of the Celestial Kingdom is not enough to be embarrassed behind closed doors. Does it have to be seen by foreign vassals? This is really an interview. Where can the court put its face?
Ma Ziqiang is not worried that Sanniang will underestimate the Ming Dynasty and join the invaders. The Ming Dynasty is winning at Daningwei, and Sanniang Zi is very clear about it.
Just a simple and sustainable shame.
If the main hall is not repaired, it will be a day of shame.
Zhu Yijun ignored these Fuque ministers this time. On the sixth day of May, he met with the ministers on the foundation.
Disgraceful, disgraceful to whose person?
Did you lose the face of the fourteen-year-old Emperor Chong?
Zhu Yijun came to the Huangji Hall, sat on the dragon chair, and announced to the Third Lady according to the established procedures. The etiquette of all this was extremely standardized, and Ma Ziqiang, the Minister of Rites, could not fault her at all.
Only Huangji Hall has no palace.
"Princess Zhongshun, Princess of Shunyi, Chiragut Nayanchu Zhonggen Hatun, pays homage to the Emperor of Ming Dynasty. Long live your majesty, long live your Majesty." There is nothing faulty about the etiquette of the third lady, Zhongshun Madam is the title given to Sanniangzi by the Ming court after I paid tribute. This long list of names is Sanniangzi's real name, but no one calls her by it anymore.
Zhu Yijun nodded and said: "No courtesy."
When Sanniangzi stood up, she still couldn't believe it. She confirmed a basic fact. Emperor Ming and Yuan Fu were both uncompromising. The most ruthless person among ruthless people, this kind of noble person doesn't even want to lose face. What he wants is self-evident.
When Zhu Yijun saw Sanniangzi, he was very, very surprised.
Firstly, I was surprised by Sanniangzi’s Chinese proficiency and etiquette. Secondly, I was surprised by Sanniangzi’s age. For a woman who overstepped her authority, Zhu Yijun thought she was already forty or fifty years old, but in the end, the only people in front of her were Appearing to be in his mid-twenties.
The reason why it was so unexpected was due to two reasons. When the tribute was granted in the fifth year of Longqing, the court made various inferences and came to the conclusion that the northwest barbarians were half in love with Sanniangzi.
According to the records of Sejong Shizong, the exact time when Sanniangzi married Anda Khan was the thirty-eighth year of Jiajing, which has already passed fifteen or sixteen years. So how old was Sanniangzi when she married Anda Khan?
Eight or nine years old.
"Why did you come from afar?" Zhu Yijun asked.
Sanniangzi said with great conviction: "Wool, from this business, can the court allocate more profits to the grassland?"
Sanniangzi was straightforward, straight to the point, and asked without being polite to the emperor. Can you share more benefits with Rouyuan people?
Zhu Yijun shook his head and said: "No, there is an official factory in the imperial village. If Mrs. Zhongshun thinks it can be done on the grassland, then just go ahead and do it."
"It can't be done." The third wife thought about it for a while and said: "Your Majesty, there are several benefits to dividing the grassland."
"First, the court has no worries. At present, the Ming Dynasty is sending troops to the northeast. If the northwest is full of war, it will not be conducive to the war. ;"
"Second, there is no warning for soldiers and horses to herd in the south. Grassland people also have fathers, mothers, wives and children. Horses' hooves go south to herd and hunt the Central Plains. The Central Plains is dangerous and the grasslands are also dangerous;"
"Three , the border gangsters are not capable of killing, there are many gangsters on the border, the Ming Dynasty and the grassland are better, each other hunts the thieves, and the border people are stable;"
"Fourth, the divisions and brigade have no labor to mobilize. The king's troops come in and out, and they often spend millions of silver and grain. Such conquests into the grassland are not worth the loss. The grassland is good at bows and horses. If the king's army advances, the grassland will retreat. When the king's army retreats, the grassland will advance. This repeats for two hundred years. "Yu Zai."
"Five..."
Sanniang Zi did not say the fifth point immediately, but hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Five, the Ming Dynasty has no bounds of provocation, sincerity. As your Majesty has witnessed, the people in the grassland admire Wang Hua. Over the past two hundred years, there have been constant exchanges with each other. The grassland has long lost its written language, and everything you look at is in Chinese."
"When the barbarians entered China, China became China. In other words, if China invades the barbarians, the barbarians will be conquered; this has never been the case since ancient times. Today, at this time, the king of Shunyi is granted the honor of the late emperor, and the border is peaceful. "
"If the court allows the market to change, there will be changes. If not, the reconciliation will last for a long time, and both the Chinese and the Yi will benefit. In a few years, will the Chinese and the Yi become one and the same in the grassland? "
Everyone has the same parents, and their cultures will gradually become the same, and they will be able to communicate with each other. , as time goes by, there is no distinction between Huayi and Huayi, they are all Ming people.
This is the reason given by Sanniangzi, the reason for asking the emperor for a reward. She came to the capital to ask the emperor to reward her with a little profit, so that she can explain to everyone when she goes back.
"As expected of Sanniang, she has sharp teeth and a sharp mouth." After listening to Sanniang's words, Ma Ziqiang couldn't help but shook his head and said: "It sounds nice, the sky is flying, even if you don't say Beilu, you can't win. If we can fight, why bother to talk? We have already gone south to plunder and plunder. Isn’t it because we can’t fight?”
Mr. Beilu told a joke. If you do business honestly and in a well-behaved manner, you will definitely not behave yourself if you can rob them. The reason why you are willing to go to Beijing to have an audience and treat your ministers with courtesy is because you can't be beaten?
With just one mouthful, do you let the court give in to you?
"You can graze more sheep on the grassland and raise fewer horses." The third lady bowed her head again and said.
Under normal circumstances, if there are no accidents and no special instructions, there will be two updates a day, more than 14,000 words, please give me a monthly ticket, Wow! ! ! ! ! !
