Chapter 4 Zhu Qizhen's calculations

Do you really think that the people who fled into the mountains are good?

These people who live in the mountains are the Diao people as the government says.

Although it is not good to say this, many ignorant people in the deep mountains really do not know the consequences, and it is common for them to kill people and sell goods, and they don't feel that there is anything wrong at all.

Even some remote and small places in later generations will take Wang Fa seriously, let alone in this era.

It is also Xiang Zhong who has the courage, courage, skill, and resourcefulness to bring down hundreds of thousands of people seemingly smoothly and smoothly

Placed in Xiangyang, Nanyang area.

If someone wanted to accomplish this by virtue of their identity as a Ming official, they would have already fallen to the ground.

Zhu Jianjun was much more relieved at this time, but he had new doubts, and said: "Master Yu, since my father ascended the throne, he has been diligent every day, and he has never been in arrears in disaster relief. ”

Yu Qian sighed and said: "Your Majesty is a Ming Jun, but not one person can do the world's affairs, and the people's lives are too hard, life and death are just around the corner, where will you read any Jun's grace?" ”

"The prince has been in Lanzhou Wei for more than a year, don't you know this?"

If before, tell Zhu Jianjun. Zhu Jianjun will not understand, how can he, a prince who lives in the palace, understand the hardships of the common people.

But after a year of training in Lanzhou, I have endured hardships, suffered hardships, had blisters on my hands, had hunger, drank muddy water, had been sick, and been drenched in rain. I understand more that everything he has endured is good enough for the people at the bottom of the real Ming Dynasty.

At least, these people still eat imperial food.

At least, the Northwest Guard was cleaned up by Yu Qian, and all kinds of arrears were gone.

It's much better than the real bottom people.

The real people at the bottom have no intention of thinking about anything else, all their thinking is on eating, because if they don't work hard to find a way, they will face the danger of running out of cooking at any time.

In order to be able to eat well, what is the point of rebellion? What is a head-killing thing?

Many people don't take their lives seriously, because sometimes their lives are really like that, and they don't know when they will die in a corner.

Zhu Qizhen has been on the throne for more than 20 years, and it cannot be said that he has no achievements.

But his exploits are a little far away from the people, perhaps the people of Hebei have received the favor of Zhu Qizhen, which is why Zhu Qizhen is the most enthusiastic in recruiting the people of Hebei.

But for the rest of the people, their lives have not changed.

Sometimes, though, nothing changes, and it's not a bad thing. At the very least, it shows that the living standards of the people of the Ming Dynasty have not fallen.

Yu Qian looked at Zhu Jianjun's face

, pondered for a while and said: "In fact, in the opinion of the old minister, this time the rebellion of the White Lotus Sect is not only because of this, I am afraid that the real problem is still in the center." ”

Zhu Jianjun's heart moved, and said: "But there are traitors around my father? ”

Yu Qian shook his head with a wry smile and said, "No, Li Xian can't be a traitor." ”

Zhu Jianjun said: "What the master said is Li Shoufu, looking at it alone, Li Shoufu doesn't look like a traitor?" ”

Yu Qian said: "The old minister didn't say that Li Xian was a traitor, but his plan to investigate Beijing was too severe, and the whole world can be said to be boring." ”

Yu Qian didn't know what to say about Li Xian's actions.

Last year, that is, in the twenty-third year of orthodoxy, Li Xian launched the Jingcha plan. Although Yu Qian was not in the capital, he was also in favor of it in his heart.

After all, in the past few years, Zhu Qizhen has been busy with the war, and the supervision of officials has been relaxed. He could see it in the matter of Gao Yangbo Li Wen at the beginning.

If it weren't for the tight time and the threat of tile spurs, Yu Qian would never have let Li Wen have a good time.

Yu Qian's disposition is still like this, and it is naturally better to have more than one thing in various places, so that corruption in the government naturally breeds.

It's time to put things in order.

It's just that Yu Qian looked at what Li Xian was doing, and he was a little out of proportion.

Since last year's Jingcha, there have been two governors, several prefects, and several chiefs, and one ancient brain has been overturned, and as for the county orders that have been deposed, there are countless of them.

For a time, the officialdom was extremely shaken.

Yu Qian was also very sideways.

It's not that Yu Qian sympathizes with those who are willing to fall, but as a politician, it is a compulsory lesson to be with the light and dust, and it is one thing to wash away the rule of officials, but is it really good to make the world panic?

There is a suspicion of overkill.

It's just that Yu Qian didn't know that the person who wanted to overkill was not Li Xian.

Li Xian has been a veteran of the Ministry for many years, and now, he has been in the Organization Department for most of his life, and it is instinct for Li Xian to be careful.

If Li Xian was allowed to do everything, there would never be such a thing.

What is really behind the scenes is Zhu Qizhen.

The reason why Zhu Qizhen did this was because of the ancestral system.

After Zhu Qizhen was dissuaded by Li Xian, he kept thinking about what the Ming ancestral system was? To put it mildly, it is a system centered on the ancestral teachings of the Ming Dynasty and the laws of the Ming Dynasty.

It was not Emperor Taizu who set the ancestral system, and Emperor Taizong was also counted.

After all, what Emperor Taizong did back then actually went against Emperor Taizu's intentions.

In order to understand the status of the ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty in the hearts of the ministers, Zhu Qizhen started the method of turning the right, that is, the Ming Jingguan and above the five officials, and went to the Qianqing Palace to talk to Zhu Qizhen every day in order.

There are quite a few Ming officials.

It took Zhu Qizhen more than half a year to figure out the thoughts of the ministers.

The attitude of the ministers towards the ancestral system is roughly four, the first ancestor has precise legislation, even if it does not work, it is also a problem of the executor, not that the ancestral system is different. Second, the ancestors have already achieved results, and if they are changed, they will not see the benefits and disadvantages. The third rule lies in Fazu, that is to say, don't you, the emperor, have a little pressure in his heart? You are not as good as Emperor Taizu Taizong, what idea do you come up with, just do it according to Taizu Taizong's wishes, fourth, even if there is a problem with the ancestral system, it should not be a large-scale change, but a cure.

According to the attitude of the ministers, let's look at Li Xian's actions.

It's very clear.

Li Xian's rectification measures are two words: "save the malpractice." ”

But Zhu Qizhen is not satisfied with this, even if he has made concessions now, he will always push his ideas forward.

So what to do?

It is to attack the shield of the son with the spear of the son.

Since everyone thinks that the ancestral system is good, then follow the ancestral system.

So this time, Jingcha made the world boil, and the officials were not happy.

Perhaps the chaos of the White Lotus Sect is also the outbreak of how many years the White Lotus Sect has been accumulating, but there are also people in the world, whether it is a Beijing official or a local official, who is thinking about this major matter.

Why is this happening?

It's not that Zhu Qizhen grabbed the pigtails of many ministers. This is not what an emperor should do. Zhu Qizhen never does things against someone.

Unless someone reaches the point of Shi Heng, he is not worthy of Zhu Qizhen's targeting. And this time, the officials who were cleared out were no more than a governor. It can be regarded as the sequence of Zhu Qizhen's important ministers.

As for the officials below, they are not qualified enough to make Zhu Qizhen pay attention.

Zhu Qizhen just opened the Daming Law, and rejected the judgments of the three legal divisions of the Criminal Department if they were light.

As a friendly reminder, the Daming Law has been practiced three times, and the last time was in the 30th year of Hongwu, and it will be used in the future. In other words, Zhu Qizhen is always copying the means of Taizu and his old man.

As for how Taizu and his old man treated corrupt officials and corrupt officials.

It also understands why the officials of the Ming Dynasty are boring.

However, Zhu Qizhen also knew that time had passed, and it was impossible to take Emperor Taizu's law to kill the current officials, and his purpose was not to kill people.

Instead, let the Ming officials themselves play and ask for the revision of the Ming law.

In this way, the power to revise and interpret the Great Ming Law, which is an important part of the ancestral system, is in the hands of Zhu Qizhen. Among the hundred officials, there is a lack of a means to balance the emperor.

What the?

They disagreed.

Zhu Qizhen is still afraid that he will not succeed in killing? Moreover, Zhu Qizhen also killed people through the Daming Law, so it can't be regarded as non-criminal homicide. See who can't sit still.
