Chapter 225 The higher ups pretend to pay, and we pretend to fight


Chapter 225 The above pretend to pay, we pretend to fight

Wang Qian is a bad guy, and his father Wang Chonggu is a bad guy among bad guys.

Da Sikou's nephew Zhang Siwei was imprisoned. Wang Chonggu refused to save him and even pushed him. He amassed profits in the court and offered them to the emperor. This can be said to be a typical example of disloyalty and unfilial piety.

In the Ming Dynasty's public opinion, following the Ming Emperor's decrees and blindly pleasing the Emperor was considered disloyal. Loyal ministers should blame Chen Shan and point at the Emperor's nose like Hai Rui did. Loyal minister.

That's why the officials have been saying so much recently that there is no integrity in the government. Even Hai Rui chose to surrender, fearing the powerful ministers and not daring to blame Chen Shan.

Being unfilial means wasting the friendship between relatives. Wang Chonggu did not protect his nephew, but added insult to injury, which was unfilial.

It is legal in the Ming Dynasty to hide relatives from each other. If your son kills someone, and you know that he has killed someone but don't report it, it is not illegal. The friendship between relatives is the greatest filial piety.

Wang Chonggu’s virtue is scolded every day, which is expected.

Wang Qian could actually choose not to be scolded, as long as he behaved like a normal Ming Dynasty scholar, but Wang Qian still planned to go all the way to the dark side.

"Father, is Yang Bo a gentleman?" Wang Qian watched Wang Chonggu finally ask the most confusing question in his heart after the imperial examination.

Wang Chonggu immediately broke through the defense!

He stood up suddenly and said sternly: "When we first made peace with Anda Khan, it was to solve the border troubles in the northwest. We couldn't fight or win, so we made peace. Yang Bo, Gao Gong, and the late emperor all It was to end the border troubles. If there were strong troops in the capital at that time, how could An have done this? "

"Yes, it changed later... Alas, you know that once something starts, there will only be two. As a result, either the imperial court will turn a blind eye to the feudal town, or blood will flow into the river."

Wang Chonggu's tone was more helpless, and the matter developed to Zhang Siwei and his associates. The situation in which more than a hundred people were executed by the clan had one of two outcomes. Either the court endured the ritual and music conquests from the princes, or it dealt with them decisively.

Li Chengliang has deep roots in Liaodong, but Li Chengliang has always refused to go all the way to the vassal town because there is no turning back. In a healthy court, this is a dead end.

"Then the peace talks with me that Yang Bo, Gao Gong and their father advocated back then are considered to have more advantages than disadvantages?" Wang Qian knows the answer to this question. He does not want to argue that Yang Bo is not a gentleman and a villain. question.

He was asking whether the benefits of what he had done outweighed the disadvantages. The little emperor was a very simple person. If the benefits outweighed the disadvantages, he would be very gentle.

“It seemed beneficial at the time, but when it developed into this, no one expected it.” Wang Chonggu said slightly helplessly, some things are beyond human control, even if I don’t want it to happen anymore, but it still happens.

Wang Qian found the answer to the question. Losing control is inevitable, so cleaning up the garbage regularly has become a very necessary thing. To avoid becoming garbage, Wang Qian first To do.

On the 27th of February in the fifth year of Wanli, Emperor Zhu Yijun of the Ming Dynasty came to the Wenhua Palace as scheduled. He listened to the affairs at the imperial gate and began daily court discussions. Zhang Juzheng still presided over this court meeting as usual.

Zhu Yijun felt relieved when he looked at Zhang Juzheng's figure.

He can act recklessly and kill Chen Youren with his own hands. In fact, it is because the eldest father in the court is the pillar of support that he can act like this. Not Zhang Juzheng, Zhu Yijun will be spit on if he makes any move. Drown.

"No ceremony, no ceremony, let's begin." Zhu Yijun waved his hand and announced the start of the court meeting.

Zhang Juzheng said very solemnly: "The selection of women in the draft is announced. The Queen Mother of the two palaces has decreed that her parents should be well-behaved and the family law is strict. The woman should be fourteen years old, dignified in appearance, pure in virtue, and polite in movement. , Your Majesty, this is the edict. "

"There are two women selected to enter the palace this time, and they are not allowed to disturb the people. Therefore, there are still many applicants, and the director should carefully select them."< br>
The talent show is progressing normally, and the emperor’s descendants will play a stabilizing role in the court situation.

As long as Emperor Jingtai had a son, the Mingbao Sect would never be able to launch a rebellion. Without a son, the emperor would be too passive politically.

Having no son means that there is no successor. Once Emperor Jingtai leaves, it will still be the Baozong's world. Even if Ming Xianzong Zhu Jianshen ascends the throne, the Baozong will still be able to control power as the Supreme Emperor.

So, it is very important for the emperor to have a healthy son.

If Xiaozong had not had only one son, Wu Zong, Emperor Jiajing would never have entered the capital to become emperor. Xiaozong’s monogamous wife, Zhang, would not have ended up like that. After his death, his two younger brothers were directly given away by Dao Ye. Put to death.

Ge Shouli said doubtfully: "There are a lot of registrations this time, which is unexpected. In previous years, it would have been to the point of widows getting married, but this time there are indeed a lot of applicants."

It's strange, in the past, the emperor's talent show Girls are avoided by the common people, but there are many people who signed up this time. In Ge Shouli's life, this is the first time that the emperor wants to draft girls, and there are so many people signing up.

“Most of them are military households.” Ma Ziqiang, the Ministry of Rites, answered Ge Shouli’s question.

“That’s it.” Ge Shouli nodded immediately, very reasonable.

His Majesty's determination to Zhenwu is extremely firm, which can be seen from the two New Year silver coins given every year.

From the first year of Wanli, he collected money from everywhere to pay the army in Liaodong and let Li Chengliang fight the war. Li Chengliang was grateful. It was the first time since Chenghua that he was able to fight with full pay.

Not to mention this scene, he, Li Chengliang, had never seen it, and no one in the Ming court had seen it.

Plenty of money! That’s plenty of money!

At that time, the Ming Dynasty's finances were not as healthy as they are now. The money for Li Chengliang's wars was all paid for by the emperor himself, including rewards. In recent years, His Majesty played a decisive role in Zhenwu.

In the court, His Majesty set an example by practicing martial arts without stopping, rain or shine, and studied under Zhu Xixiao and Qi Jiguang successively. Now he goes to the Beijing camp every day to conduct military parades. The law was picked up again by His Majesty.

Your Majesty gave Marshal Qi and Marshal Li the title of nobility, and asked Marshal Qi to rebuild the capital camp. He will be rewarded for his merits.

For military households, the emperor is their only hope at the moment.

Before Qi Jiguang went from south to north, and before the governor of Jizhen, the Ming Dynasty had three main processes for discussing military affairs.

The first is how to raise sufficient military pay in a timely manner, the second is how to reduce deductions at all levels, and the third is how to prevent northern invaders from entering the customs and plundering. These three processes are often skipped during court discussions. Agenda, go directly to step three.

Because the first two agendas are unsolvable.

Before His Majesty ascended the throne, the commander-in-chief of Liaodong, Jizhou and Xuanda asked the deputy commander-in-chief: What are the tactics of our Ming army?

The deputy general said: The superiors pretend to pay us, and we pretend to fight.

An incident happened in December of the fourth year of Wanli. The censor Yongqing was patrolling. When he arrived at Zijing Pass, he found that the hungry defenders were eating human flesh from the mountain stream at the Mashuikou Station. The censor Yongqing Shangzou, crying bitterly, informed His Majesty of the tragic situation.

Zhu Yijun was furious!

Strictly ordered the Ministry of War to conduct a strict investigation. Thirty-two people, including the commander, staff general, and grain officer of Zijin Pass, were all found guilty and imprisoned.

The reason why Zhu Yijun was so angry was because he had just paid back his salary, but he sent it here, but the soldiers didn't receive it. Isn't that a big mouth to the emperor's face?

The recent financial situation of the imperial court is good. In October of the fourth year of Wanli, the Ministry of War asked for orders to settle all the arrears of wages from the first year of Wanli to the fourth year of Wanli to the soldiers. Zhu Yijun and the Chief Situ Wang Guoguang of the Ministry of Revenue After a long discussion, the Ming Dynasty finally decided on a plan and sent food and wages to Jiubiangang.

But when the censor read it, there were still people who died of hunger.

The imperial court gave money and grain, but they did not reach the hands of the soldiers, so the emperor became angry.

According to past handlings, the emperor will probably not investigate the matter. He may not be sure which of the emperor's relatives is involved. In most cases, he will pretend to issue an imperial edict and order local governments to distribute relief. In Zijingguan, grain relief was distributed from Lindecang.

But the emperor's punishment was that whoever deducted the army's food and grass would be beheaded by the emperor's neck.

It is true that the frontier army cannot be used for offense, but it is more than enough for defense. The imperial court was finally generous enough to make up for the debt, and not a single hair went into the hands of the soldiers. It is strange that Zhu Yijun is not angry.

So, the little emperor played a decisive role in Zhenwu.

"Li Dai was in charge of the matter in the Etiquette Department, and he reported the matter to the Prince Consort Xu Congcheng." Zhang Juzheng frowned and said: "There are four articles in total, but his meaning, in summary, is Your Majesty killed my uncle in vain. He had no close friendship at all."

Zhu Yijun was stunned when he heard this, and said with a sneer: "I killed my uncle, and the other uncle and aunt didn't look for me. Li Dai hurriedly said that it hurt the friendship between relatives. If I built a house for the emperor's uncle and gave him beautiful women, money, and fine wine, why would I lose the friendship between relatives? "
< br>

The meaning of Zhu Yijun's words is that the matter of extinguishing relatives for justice is a political matter, not a human matter. Li Dai took the wrong position when discussing the issue.

The emperor wanted to establish the Xishan Coal Bureau, and Xu Congcheng wanted to argue with the emperor. It was okay to argue with him, or to compete on the same stage, but Xu Congcheng lit a fire and burned down the entire Meishikou. Table, then who will die if he doesn’t die?

Kill, there is nothing that cannot be killed.

"Isn't it suicide?" Wan Shihe suddenly opened his mouth and expressed his own doubts.

When Wang Chonggu heard this, he immediately blinked and said: "Yes, isn't it suicide out of fear of crime? Li Dai's memorial is a bit treasonous."

"Oh, yes, it is suicide." Zhang Juzheng realized a problem. Because Li He's intercession gave Xu Congcheng some dignity, Xu Congcheng committed suicide. The characterization of suicide was not wrong. Therefore, Li Dai's memorial was not established from the beginning.

For a long time, Zhang Juzheng has been accustomed to being true to his word and just being faithful. Everyone knew in their hearts that Xu Congcheng was ordered by the emperor to kill people and destroy relatives for justice, so Zhang Juzheng did not think of this reason for rebuttal at the first time, but it was a fig leaf. It's just a fig leaf, suicide is suicide.

Xu Congcheng had a reverent heart and used his own life to gain political initiative and leeway for His Majesty.

Li Dai was not reverent in the matter of Li Ke. He didn't even understand his suicide, so he just went to the memorial to vent his anger. He was really despising Confucianism.

Wan Shihe, the Minister of Civil Affairs, ended the debate with one sentence, washed the floor for His Majesty, and also applied a layer of wax.

Wan Shihe is indeed suitable to be the Minister of Rites, not the Ministry of Officials.

The Zijingguan corruption case is also related to the Prince Consort Xu Congcheng. The patrol censor Yongqing dared to report it. It was Xu Congcheng, the backstage of these corruptions, who committed suicide in the sky prison, which made this matter easier to deal with. stand up.

These guys lying on the bodies of soldiers and sucking blood must consider a basic fact, that is, if they continue to be greedy and the emperor will not even let his uncle go, then how can these guys be more respectable than his uncle? big?

The benefits of eliminating the disadvantages of appeasement have gradually emerged, and some things in the Ming Dynasty have gradually returned to the way they should have been.

Zhang Juzheng took out a memorial with a solemn expression and said: "In December of the fourth year of Wanli, Dayan Khan's grandson captured Ming'an and Yinding Taiji, and kidnapped him in Shanfang Fort of Ming Dynasty. I have twelve officers and soldiers who collected firewood in the Ming Dynasty, so I asked for a reward. Wu Baipeng, the governor of Xuan Dynasty, reported to me.” , Qingbadu, Yongshaobu, Qiejihuangtaiji and other four tribes were dealt with. They dealt with Dalaming'an and Yindingtaiji. They fined a thousand sheep, 207 horses, and three camels, and carried them into captivity. "On February 17, Wu Baipeng, the governor of Xuanda, reported that the King of Shunyi had returned a hostage and property as scheduled. Wu Baipeng made an appointment with Anda Khan to patrol the fortress and dare to defeat him. Anyone who steals an appointment will be punished as in the Ming'an regulations. "

Wang Chonggu wiped the sweat from his forehead when he heard this. In the cold spring weather, he broke into a cold sweat.

Anda Khan’s decision was extremely appropriate. If Anda Khan refused to hand him over, Wang Chonggu would have to bear a lot of infamy. After all, it was Gao Gong and Yang Bo who paid tribute to Anda. , Wang Chonggu, Zhang Juzheng and others vigorously promoted it, with Wang Chonggu acting as the middleman.

Tan Lun, Minister of the Ministry of War, was relieved when he heard that Governor Xuanda had brought the people back. He asked with some confusion: "Why are there 207 horses, some scattered and some whole?" When Wang Chonggu heard that the matter was settled, he smiled and said: "Da Sima, because of these two people, La Ming'an and Yin Ding Taiji, they ordered sheep, horses and camels like this."

"That's it." Tan Lun then understood. He understood that Anda Khan ransacked the homes of these two people.

The main direction of the Ming Dynasty's military deployment is still the Daning Guard, Quanning Guard and the Daxianbei Mountain Pass. Completely driving the Tuman Khan out of Liaodong is the immediate priority. It is still necessary to maintain the appearance of Anda Khan in the northwest. peaceful.

Zhu Yijun looked at Qi Jiguang, showed a bright smile and said: "Qi Shuai, I am very pleased."

"Huh?" Qi Jiguang rarely spoke in court discussions. , most of them were listening and thinking about the training plan of the Beijing camp. Suddenly hearing His Majesty say this, they suddenly felt surprised and confused.

Zhu Yijun said: "Anda Khan has a bad reputation on the grassland. He is called a traitor to the world. Longqing negotiated peace and Anda paid tribute. It was the Ming Dynasty that lost, not the Ming Dynasty won. Negotiating peace, but looking at Anda Khan's actions and actions, others thought that the Ming Dynasty had won."

"What is Anda Khan afraid of? He invaded the capital again and was forced to do so. Wouldn't it be better to come to the capital to ask for rewards?"

"He is afraid of Qi Shuai's 100,000 strong soldiers in Jizhou, Yongping and Shanhai towns, and of the 120,000 and 22 infantry camps in the capital. "

Qi Jiguang hurriedly bowed his head and said: "I am ashamed of this. Before I met the wise king, I was just a wart. How could I spread it? My dignity is all dependent on your majesty's holy family. ”

Qi Jiguang’s speech is very interesting. He is reminding the young emperor that he is not the emperor’s enemy, but is under the protection of His Majesty’s holy family to express his ambitions.

When the emperor did not grant him any royal favor, Qi Jiguang was nothing more than a wart in the eyes of the Southern and Northern armies and courtiers.

The Beijing camp is expanding its army. Some officials always use the incident of Zhao Kuangyin’s mutiny in Chenqiao and the incorporation of Huangpao to remind His Majesty that Qi Jiguang’s words are a lesson from the past. In fact, Qi Jiguang’s words are also to defend himself. He does not want to be Zhao Kuangyin, the leader of the Beijing camp army. The soldiers did not want to put the yellow robe on him, because the emperor appeared in the capital camp every day.

And he, Qi Jiguang, couldn't do Zhao Kuangyin.

The background of the Wanli period and the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms before the establishment of the Northern Song Dynasty was completely different, so it was simply impossible.

The vision, tasks, and goals of the government decree are lavishly decorated with flowers and flowers. They benefit the court at the top and the poor people at the bottom. However, if the cost is not mentioned, you must immediately express your opposition. Then give the military generals the power to select and select The cost of generals, the establishment of the New Beijing Camp, and the expansion of the New Beijing Camp are of course the expensive military expenditures, which are also a threat to the emperor's throne.

Even Ada Khan, who is far away in the northwest, is afraid of Qi Jiguang's guard. This is a real threat.

Zhu Yijun's attitude towards this has always been very clear. The day Qi Jiguangli reaches the end, there will be at least one step to climb to reach the gods.

"Sanniang wrote a letter asking whether the plundering of border residents in Dalaming'an and Yindingtaiji would affect the tribute trade." Wang Chonggu took out a letter and put it directly on the table .

Sanniangzi’s letter came from the inn, and when it reached Wang Chonggu’s hands, the paint had been opened and the contents had been recorded by Honglu Temple.

This is not surveillance, but a kind of protection. The power to overthrow the king in the court has never stopped. The purpose of checking the letter and including it is to protect Wang Chonggu from falling because of the conspiracy.

After Zhang Juzheng read the letter, Sanniangzi introduced in detail the details of the robbery and disposal of the border residents.

This is not a misunderstanding. The reason why Anda Khan wanted to 'ranscoat' the homes of the two Taijis was that these two Taijis did it on purpose!

They did not rob the soldiers when they encountered the Ming Dynasty border troops cutting firewood, but they did it deliberately. They waited in line outside the catering fort for a long time before choosing to take action.

Ada Khan solemnly convened a meeting of all Taiji and Wanhu households to make punishments, which also involved the internal line disputes among the Northern Lu. Among the Northern Lu, peace negotiation occupied the mainstream, so it was With this severe punishment, the houses were confiscated and all the belongings of the two Taijis were confiscated and sent to the Ming Dynasty to express atonement.

Sanniangzi also hoped that the court would not misunderstand and expressed concerns about whether it would affect the tribute market.

Gongshi is the reason for the existence and the greatest support of the Beilu peace faction.

Zhang Juzheng handed the letter to Zhang Hong and asked Zhang Hong to present it to His Majesty. King Shunyi is the king of the Ming Dynasty, so his Majesty has to deal with it.

"What do you think, sir?" Zhu Yijun asked Zhang Juzheng for his opinion. Daming should indeed be angry when such a bad thing as plundering the border troops happened, but after Daming gave an angry note to An Da Khan, An Da Khan gave A pretty good result.

But Zhu Yijun is still a little dissatisfied.

"I think that a small punishment should be imposed. Since it was done deliberately, it would be better for Anda Khan to hand over these two auspicious things." After communicating with Tan Lun, Zhang Juzheng thought that this The court couldn't just let the matter go, it still had to continue to force an explanation.

Tan Lun immediately said: "It doesn't matter if I don't pay, the tribute market will remain the same. When we free up our hands in the northeast, this will be an excuse." Anda Khan, you were lax in your command, plundered the Ming Dynasty's border troops, and the court pressed for criminals. If Anda Khan refused, then the court had the name of sending troops, so regaining the Hetao would be a matter of course and a matter of course.

Talaming'an is the younger brother of Anda Khan, and Yinding Taiji is a clan member of the Borzhijin family. Taiji can be understood as a prince, and could only be used to address Hu during the time of Hu Yuan. Princes of the Yuan Dynasty, and during the Wanli period, anyone with the blood of the Bo'er Jin family or the Jin family could be called Taiji.

The Ming Dynasty was determined to get rid of the disadvantages of appeasement, and the Beibei were determined not to be able to do it. Therefore, the final result must be that Anda Khan refused to surrender, and the case was not closed, which became a rhetoric to raise troops. And the reason is over.

Recovering Daningwei to relieve the defensive pressure in the northeast, regaining the Hetao, and relieving the pressure in the northwest are Tan Lun's biggest pursuits as Minister of War.

Although the Daning Guard was recovered, it was still not complete, and the complex was also on the emperor's agenda.

"What do you think, the great Sikou?" Zhu Yijun looked at Wang Chonggu and asked his opinion. After all, it was Wang Chonggu who advocated peace.

Wang Chonggu frowned and asked: "Will it affect the purchase of wool? Your Majesty, the woolen business is very profitable, and I am naturally a minister who makes money by amassing profits. Just don't delay buying wool."
< br>It has nothing to do with Wang Chonggu whether Daningwei is there or not. He only cares about the white soil of Taotu Mountain. It has nothing to do with whether the river is in the hands of Daming. He only cares about a 120 kilogram bag of washed and dried wool. , whether I can enter Beijing as scheduled.

Highlights a clear division of labor.

When an organization becomes large, it becomes a hydra. Each department has its own head, and each department has its own interests. Conflicts of interest will naturally lead to disagreements, and disagreements will lead to party strife. Wang Chonggu only wants the wool.

"That's it, the tribute market will continue as usual, and the criminals will be asked to come to Beijing and beheaded in public." Zhu Yijun synthesized the opinions of all parties and continued the tribute market, asking for both the criminals and the criminals.

Zhu Yijun doesn’t care about the two Beilu clansmen. What he cares about is the Hetao.

“The Ministry of Personnel and the Metropolitan Procuratorate impeached the Chief Envoy Zou Guangzuo and other eighty-three people through the examination method. They requested orders to dismiss, demote, and appoint officials, all in the same manner.” Zhang Juzheng directly attacked the Chief Envoy. Well, this is the biggest official who has been dismissed after passing the imperial examination in the past few years, Shandong Chief Envoy Zou Guangzuo.

Zou Guangzuo would not dare to disobey the imperial decree if he did not act. Not daring to disobey the clear decree, he began to secretly plot against Chen Cang. He did nothing and could not do anything even if asked. The Qingzhang's decree had been issued for several months, but Zou Guangzuo could not move, so he could only get out.

Zou Guangzuo was a Jinshi in the thirty-fifth year of Jiajing's reign. The official department means to be dismissed and seize the official status, while the Metropolitan Procuratorate means to be demoted.

“Why should Zongxian Ge and Zongxian Hai be lenient?” Zhang Juzheng looked at the two presidents of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and was a little confused. Zou Guangzuo’s overt and covert behavior should be treated according to the examination law. , should all be dismissed.

"Yuanfu, we need to consider the situation in Shandong. Maybe it's not that Zou Guangzuo doesn't want to do it, but that he can't do it, so he's delaying it in every possible way?" Hai Rui reminded Zhang Juzheng that the situation in Shandong is different from that in other places. .

"Mr. Yuan Fu, there are so many thieves in Shandong." Ge Shouli looked at Zhang Juzheng and thought about it again and again, and then he said something strange, but everyone could understand it.

"That's right, then let's lower the tone and go to the Henan Qing Li Bureau." Zhang Juzheng found a new job for Zou Guangzuo and went to Henan to be responsible for the Qing Dynasty.

Henan is no better than Shandong.

"Are the two Ming Gongs playing riddles?" Zhu Yijun expressed his dissatisfaction with this conversation method that everyone understood. He could understand it, but he just asked Ge Shouli to say it.

If there is anything that cannot be said, you can say it.

Why are there so many thieves in Shandong? Because there are so many refugees in Shandong, and households become landless tenants, and then become refugees, naturally there will be more thieves. So who is annexing Shandong? This is a topic that cannot be touched, Yanzhou Kong family, Yan Shenggong, the blood of saints.

So, it’s not that Zou Guangzuo doesn’t want to be promoted, it’s that the ground in Shandong is so difficult to deal with, and Henan is in a similar situation.

Henan has many vassal kings, and Shandong has the Confucius Mansion.

Zhang Juzheng asked Zou Guangzuo to be demoted to Henan. It was just a difference from one hell to another. During Zhang Juzheng's time in the country, he couldn't do anything. Even if it was so difficult, Zhang Juzheng didn't care. If you have any difficulty, if you can't do it, get out and find someone else to do it for you.

Ge Shouli hesitated for a moment, but finally explained why there were so many thieves in Shandong.

"Yanshenggong?" Zhu Yijun smiled. It is best for Yanshenggong's mansion to cooperate with the court to clear the abbot. Otherwise, Zhu Yijun cannot be blamed for being ruthless. Clearing the abbot is the general trend of the country and the core of the new law. If Duke Yan Sheng's Mansion insists on blocking the way, there will only be one end, and it will be crushed to pieces.

Zou Guangzuo’s disposal is over, but the issue of Duke Yan Sheng has also been put on the table. The imperial court promoted Gu Zhangzhi, the deputy envoy of Guangxi, to the chief envoy of Shandong. If the Qingzhang still cannot be implemented, the imperial court will send Ti Went on a ride.

"Your Majesty, I made a new official book screen map yesterday, and I would like to ask your Majesty to take a look at it." Zhang Juzheng bowed his head and said.

"Oh? Submit it for us to see." Zhu Yijun's eyes lit up and he said.

The new official Shupingkan map was produced using the new mapping method. It only has the specific locations of the 140 Ming Dynasty prefectures. As for the prefectures and counties, they are still being mapped.

The proportions of this Kan map seem to be much more pleasing to the eye than the previous Kan map, and it describes the location more accurately.

Zhu Yijun looked at it with great interest for a long time. The new Kanyu map described the size of Northwest Xuanda University very accurately, unlike the previous Kanyu maps where they were all crowded together.

In the view of Master Jingtang, Juyongguan is just outside the Great Wall, but in fact it is not the case. Xuanfu and Datong are still very large, and their geographical location is very important.

The new Kanyu map standardizes the location of Daningwei, and also marks the geographical locations of Jilong Island, Ryukyu and Luzon. However, the marks on the map are really too far away, and some of the proportions are out of proportion. The measurements were very accurate, but longitude was a little more difficult, so the map was still distorted.

But we have made great progress.

The Qing Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty was in full swing, and mapping was carried out along with the Qing Dynasty. After these surveying and mapping data were collected in Beijing, they were calculated by the Imperial College of the Ming Dynasty, and finally this proportional picture was obtained Kantu map.

"Your Majesty, the Royal Gewuyuan has been completed except for the newly built palace. Your Majesty will be invited to go to the Gewuyuan tomorrow to witness its completion." Wang Chonggu bowed his head again to hear the news.

A Ming Dynasty joke: The deputy general asked the commander-in-chief for instructions: Should these soldiers be killed before or after the meal? The commander said matter-of-factly: Before the meal, of course. How do you know when they will have their next meal? Please give me a monthly ticket, wow! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
