Chapter Fifty-Seven: The Second Lost Ha

Zhu Qizhen said: "Does my father-in-law have a countermeasure? ”

Yishu bowed and said: "The slave and maid have a foolish gain, and please correct your majesty." ”

Zhu Qizhen said: "Speak." ”

Yizha said: "The current situation, the Jurchen is in a great drought, and if you don't do anything, I don't know how many Jurchens will die this winter, so no matter what you do, the Jurchens will make a decision this year, cross the Great Wall to the south, and loot away." Probably next year, the Jurchens will send people to ask for forgiveness. ”

Zhu Qizhen also understood that this was the helplessness of a small tribe too close to Daming.

Da Ming can't be offended, but he can't offend Da Ming, where to find food, today offended Da Ming, let most of the whole clan live.

Then go to Da Ming to ask for guilt, it's a big deal to use a few heads to calm Da Ming's anger.

With the political concept of the Ming Dynasty, the plan will never be wiped out.

Even if there is a punishment.

It is much better than most of the people starving to death this winter.

However, Zhu Qizhen understands and understands, but he can't accept it.

He is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and he is not the leader of the Jurchen Sanwei. He needs to be responsible for the people of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Qizhen hid a trace of coldness in his eyes, and said to Yisha: "Don't tell me, the Jurchen offense, you can't resist it?" ”

Yisha immediately knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty is angry, non-slaves don't do their best, they are really responsible for the terrain of Liaodong, thousands of miles of border defense, where there are places where there are guards, many places are simply guarded without danger." ”

"Yang Shoufu, I have already ordered the Ministry of Industry to plan the border wall in eastern Liaodong, and when the border wall is completed, the slave maid and others will definitely make the Jurchen not dare to take the next step in the south."

Zhu Qizhen never imagined that the famous Ming Great Wall in later generations had not yet been completed at this time. At least Liaodong was not completed.

Zhu Qizhen also knows the terrain of the northeast, and under such circumstances, it is impossible to block the Jurchens from going south to plunder, unless before that, they will carry out a defensive attack on the Jurchens, and they will be crippled in a battle, so they will naturally be fine.

However, as soon as this thought passed through Zhu Qizhen's mind, he knew that it would not work.

There are two reasons, the first Jurchen has not yet raised troops, although it is ready to move, but after all, there is no real confrontation with the Ming Dynasty, if it is only possible, the Jurchen Jianzhou Sanwei will be disabled.

The slaves are all in the hearts of the people, and it is even more difficult to clean up.

Secondly, it is the idea of the Queen Mother.

The Empress Dowager has ordered to stop everything that is not urgent, so is it urgent to start a war with the Jurchens?

Maybe in Zhu Qizhen's opinion, but in the eyes of the Empress Dowager, even if the Jurchens don't go south, the Watts and Tatars don't go south, the Ming and Mongolia are a pair of enemies, and they have fought almost for a lifetime.

The loss of these corners and corners, the Empress Dowager does not care at all.

One of the things she values most now is to maintain stability, wait until Zhu Qizhen grows up, and when Zhu Qizhen can take over the Ming regime.

Survive this period when the Lord Shaoguo is suspicious.

For the Empress Dowager, whether it is a thorn, a Jurchen, or a Tatar, it is too far away from Beijing. The real threat to the Empress Dowager is always within the Xiao Wall.

It seems to be safe and sound, nothing happens, do you know that some people are waiting for the right time?

Therefore, for the Empress Dowager, stability is the overriding element.

As long as there is no defeat of the Ming army, the empress dowager will not insist on a big fight.

This is her general principle.

"What can you do?" As soon as Zhu Qizhen remembered the attitude of the Empress Dowager, he sighed slightly in his heart. You can only put away the first way to strike.

Yizha also secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

After all, he was born in the Jurchens, and he still has some incense feelings for the Jurchens, and said: "In the humble opinion of the ministers, it is better to trade with the Jurchens now." ”

"Although the Jurchens are outside the customs, there are Japanese ginseng furs and Dongzhu horses, if the Jurchens are willing to exchange food, the slave maid thinks it is better to agree."

"In this way, the Jianzhou Jurchen will definitely be grateful to Dade, and they will never go together with the tile spurs."

Zhu Qizhen said: "Before, my dynasty and the Jurchen tribes, didn't they trade? ”

Seeing this, he could only explain to Zhu Qizhen.

The Ming Dynasty named those outside tribal leaders as officials, and these officials did not issue money in the Ming Dynasty, but their official seals had an important role as a certificate to pay tribute to the Central Plains.

With the tradition of the Ming court, the Jurchen tribes naturally had to be rewarded a lot.

In this way, the tribute of the Jurchen tribes also brought great economic problems to the Ming Dynasty. So much so that the imperial court had to limit the scale of the tribute of the Jurchen tribes.

Now the Jurchens want to use the method of tribute in exchange for a large amount of grain, but the court will not allow it. 、

Zhu Qizhen said: "If you trade, you can solve the problem of the Jurchen tribe?" ”

Yizha said: "Your Majesty, you don't have to solve all the problems of the Jurchens, as long as you order trade, the Jurchen tribes will definitely not have the courage to contend with the imperial court. ”

"Even if there are some fools, they will solve it themselves. Don't work for the imperial court. ”

Zhu Qizhen's heart moved, and he had a feeling of being impressed by Yishiha.

He also thought that Yizha was a little biased towards the Jurchens, but now that he looks at it, he is still too immature compared to Yizhaha.

What are the benefits of letting the Jurchens survive the drought safely?

Even if Zhu Qizhen opens up the door of trade, who can get this benefit? Naturally, it is towards the forces of the Ming Dynasty, and as for those tribes that are hostile to the Ming Dynasty, they will naturally disappear in the reshuffle of this great drought.

Moreover, it also solved a hidden worry of Zhu Qizhen.

What if the Jurchens were to act as a transit merchant here in Liaodong and monopolize the goods of the Central Plains to the tile spurs?

After all, the primary and secondary contradictions must be clearly distinguished, no matter how the Jianzhou Jurchens will be in the future, and the real enemy of the Ming Dynasty today is not the Jianzhou Jurchens, but the thorns.

The Jianzhou Jurchen can let go a little, but the tile spur must not be slack.

With the original intention of Yizha, I am afraid that the number of Jurchens will not be enough, and if the number is sufficient, if the two peaches kill the three soldiers. This grain and grass, even if the tile thorn wants it, I am afraid that it will be snatched from the mouth of the Jurchens.

Zhu Qizhen wouldn't be able to push the Jurchen to the ground, but he wouldn't be so stupid to think about it. Leaving the great enemy Adai Khan alone, but robbing the Jurchen of the rations.

The more Zhu Qizhen thought about it, the more he made this method wonderful, and it didn't cost a single soldier. can nip the harassment of the Jurchen in the bud.

Zhu Qizhen suddenly felt that there were still talents in the group of eunuchs, and the one in front of him was also lost, if he was not a eunuch, he would be qualified as the chief military officer of Liaodong.

Zhu Qizhen said: "If someone comes, the reward will also be lost and forty stones of grain." ”

Yisha immediately said: "The slave has thanked Your Majesty. ”

The treatment of eunuchs set by Zhu Yuanzhang is only one stone of grain per month, and only twelve stones a year, which is converted into silver, about ten taels. It's just enough to satisfy your stomach.

Therefore, among the eunuchs, the incorruptible such as Ruan An, when he died, the silver around him was only ten taels, which was about his salary for a year.

But if all the eunuchs had eaten according to this amount, they would have starved to death.

Zhu Qizhen knew that the three eunuchs in front of him did not rely on Yulu to eat.

As for Jin Ying, Zhu Qizhen still remembers the Empress Dowager's evaluation of Jin Ying, you can do anything, but you can't see silver with black eyes.

Moreover, Emperor Xuanzong gave Jin Ying the first and the land, which was enough for Jin Ying, maybe the richest of the three of them.

As for Wang Zhen, he usually doesn't have much savings, but in the six months since Zhu Qizhen ascended the throne, his pockets have swelled, but the money is not by Wang Zhen's side, but in the hands of his nephew Wang Li outside the palace.

This information is also an eye medicine that Kim Young secretly applied.

However, rewarding food is also an honor, similar to a kind of political treatment, at least it shows that Hajan is in the emperor's heart, which is not comparable to ordinary people.

Zhu Qizhen said: "Get up and speak, I have one more thing I want to ask you." ”

Yizha said: "Your Majesty, please ask, the slave knows everything, and the words are endless. ”

Zhu Qizhen said: "Okay, what is going on with the abandonment of Daning City, and what is the end of it, let me explain it in detail." ”

Zhu Qizhen has been holding this question in his heart for a while. I just couldn't find the right person to ask.

At this moment, although it is said that it is a question, it is also a question of Wang Zhen and Jin Ying.
