Chapter 118: Southwest Policy III

"Isn't there a one-size-fits-all solution?" Zhu Qizhen said.

Zhu Qizhen's question stumped the people below.

In fact, everyone knows one thing, that is, the Ming Dynasty fought in the southwest, and it was a loss-making business. What if Luchuan is defeated?

The core area of Luchuan is a piece centered on Ruili in Yunnan in the future, and there are probably several county boundaries.

How to really calculate the economic account, how to calculate how to lose money.

Everybody knows that.

But if it were so easy to do it once and for all, there wouldn't be so many people who would be deterred from the southwest.

Yang Shiqi said: "Your Majesty is wise, but the ministers are dull, and I don't know what to do once and for all." ”

Zhu Qizhen was a little disappointed.

I don't know if this disappointment is real or faked.

"Your Majesty," the Marquis of Baoding had recovered from his excitement at this moment. "The minister thinks that when he is a waste of the Soil Division, the county and the county can be done once and for all."

Whether he wants it or not, whether he wants it or not, he has determined one thing, from today onwards, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty will regard him as the emperor's ironcore.

As an iron, there is a role as an iron.

In fact, everyone is a smart person.

understands that Toast is like the Emperor of the Soil. Their loyalty to the Ming court was nothing more than Er'er. It's impossible to expect them to never get into trouble.

If you want to pacify the southwest land once and for all, you can only change the land and return to the stream.

The toast should be a liuguan.

It's not that you don't know, you just don't want to talk about it.

Because it's so hard.

Now destroy a toast and seal a toast. This is the easiest and most convenient way, if the land is changed and returned to the stream, I am afraid that the southwest beacon fire will continue.

Today, the imperial court is committed to changing the land and returning to the stream, and the magistrates will be the first to change the land and return to the stream, and I am afraid that it will cause a bigger chaos than the Luchuan Rebellion.

"I think it's absolutely impossible." He Wenyuan said: "As soon as this strategy comes out, I am afraid that the chaotic times in the southwest will swell. ”

Zhu Qizhen said: "Then what should we do, just let the southwest be chaotic once in ten or twenty years?" ”

"This time, the tile spur did not move, if he was in the day, the court and the Tartars fought in the north, they were in chaos in the southwest, and the court used troops on both sides, would they be able to support it?"

"The minister is afraid, the king of Chu has a thin waist, and he starves to death in the palace." Wang Wen said: "Your Majesty will go down with a holy decree, even if it is a Tusi who is loyal to the imperial court, in order to protect the family business. It's going to be the other way around. ”

Zhu Qizhen said: "Mr. Wang, do you think I am such an ignorant person? ”

When Wang Wen heard this, he immediately knelt down and pleaded: "The minister doesn't dare." ”

Zhu Qizhen said: "Reality, please, Wang Daban." ”

Wang Zhen immediately went down to help Wang Wen up.

Zhu Qizhen said: "The imperial court has two capitals and thirteen provinces, how can I be greedy for every inch of Tusi? If these Tusi can be loyal servants of the imperial court with peace of mind, I will naturally be rewarded, but since they have the ability to rebel, it means that there is also land in the mountains that can support tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of people. ”

"I want these toasts to know that if they dare to betray the Ming Dynasty, they will have to pay the idea of cutting off the ancestral inheritance from today. From now on, all those who have rebelled against the Southwest Tusi will change their land and return to the stream. ”

"What do you think?"

Yang Shiqi got up first and said, "Your Majesty Shengming." It's just that the battle of Luchuan is imminent, and this matter cannot be transmitted to the southwest, so the minister thinks that when Luchuan is pacified, it is not too late to make plans. ”

Yang Shiqi is best at this plan.

The so-called companion is like a tiger.

Yang Shiqi has followed the four emperors, and he has long known that the emperor is an animal that cannot be resisted hard, and can only overcome rigidity with softness.

Yang Shiqi is quite right.

Under such a circumstance in the southwest, if the news of the land change and return to the river reaches the ears of the Tusi everywhere. What might it be?

It's not easy to mess up.

But Zhu Qizhen still felt that Yang Shiqi wanted to drag this matter from a big one to a small one, and the small one was so small that the Manchu Dynasty and the military forgot about it.

But he couldn't find a solution. must also say: "Yang Shoufu, really old and serious." It's not too late to talk about this matter until it settles down. ”

After that, Zhu Qizhen asked some more to prepare for the time.

Wang Ji believes that the army of the Southern Guard Station needs to be rectified, and it is good to be able to reach Yunnan this winter.

After Zhu Qizhen heard this, he also had to get used to the rhythm of the battle in this era.

It's normal for a big war to last a few years.

After Zhu Qizhen dispersed the court, he immediately went to see the Empress Dowager. Report today's situation to the Queen Mother.

The Empress Dowager lay on a chair, pinched the grapes in her hands, gently stuffed them into her mouth, and said, "The emperor is really determined to change the land in the southwest?" ”

Zhu Qizhen said: "Back to Niangniang, my grandson's mind has been decided, it's not that my grandson is greedy for a little military exploits, but that the troubled times in the southwest are coming and going, and the imperial court can't always send elite soldiers to guard it." Moreover, although the southwest is in the mountains, it is not impossible to cultivate, and if you get one acre of land in the southwest, you will reduce the transfer of thousands of miles in the rear, so that the strength of our dynasty in the southwest will be eliminated. If there is chaos in the southwest of the general, there is no need for the imperial court to send troops. ”

"It's a big savings."

"And at this time, the grandson is not in a hurry, it is just a beginning."

The Empress Dowager said: "If you think so, I am relieved." Remember that if things are slow, don't think about doing everything all at once, Emperor Taizong just wanted his children and grandchildren to enjoy peace forever, so that the world was full of holes. ”

The Empress Dowager seems to be old, so she likes to chatter.

Before, Zhu Qizhen felt that the Empress Dowager had sharp eyes and hit the nail on the head, but now he heard her talk over and over again, everything that would rather be slow than urgent, and that speed would not be reached.

Zhu Qizhen's ears were calloused when he heard this, his heart moved, and he said secretly: "At this moment, I am testing the Empress Dowager." ”

"Mother." Zhu Qizhen said: "The day before yesterday, the prince of England gave me a good article, and I wanted to ask the empress dowager to read it. ”

The Empress Dowager said, "Take it and take a look." ”

Zhu Qizhen hurriedly handed the feudal theory to the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager squinted her eyes slightly, facing the sunlight, and seemed to put the fold farther away to see clearly. It's just that the more she looks at it, the more she frowns.

But in a moment, the Empress Dowager finished reading. The Empress Dowager slowly put it away and said, "I heard that you used Meng Ying? ”

Zhu Qizhen said: "Officially, this time the general of Pingman, the chief military officer of Yunnan is him." ”

"Meng Ying is a man who can fight. But he was the man of the King of Han. Aren't you worried? The Empress Dowager asked.

Zhu Qizhen said: "Niangniang, this is an old thing, what are you still mentioning?" Now the veterans are withering, Xue Lu, Zheng Heng, Liu Sheng, etc. have passed away one after another, how many veterans are still in Jingnan? ”

"I can't help it, and as an emperor, when you have the heart of an emperor, Duke Qi Huan can use Guan Zhong, Tang Taizong can use Wei Zheng, and how can your grandson not use Baoding Hou."

The Empress Dowager smiled: "That's right, my grandson has courage." Speaking of this, the Empress Dowager's face suddenly sank, and she said, "It's just that why don't you let your uncle live?" ”

Zhu Qizhen's heart was shocked, and he almost had a feeling that he had been seen through by the Empress Dowager from top to bottom, and immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Where did Niangniang say this? ”

The Empress Dowager said: "You think I'm confused, this letter is clearly to let King Xiang guard Luchuan, but where is Luchuan?" Do you think I don't know, there are toasts on three sides, only the east faces Dali, I forgot, it is estimated that there are several toast territories from Dali? ”

"The mountains are high and the forests are dense, and the miasma is dense, how long can King Xiang live? You and your father are both ruthless, your father steamed his own uncle to death, do you want to learn from it? ”

"King Han has repeatedly embarrassed my family and wants to kill my family. What your father did, although it was a bit out of line, was understandable.

But where did King Xiang offend you? You came up with such a plan? Is it because of the original golden book? ”

Zhu Qizhen said: "My grandson would never dare to have such a heart. The grandson would never dare to do such a thing that would be unconscionable. I didn't dare to hide it from the Empress Dowager, my grandson wanted to guard Luchuan in Xiangwang, but he also planned for the long-term of Xiangwang. If King Xiang doesn't have a reason, he will seal the second brother in Luchuan. ”

"Grandson, don't dare to think otherwise."

"Really?" The Empress Dowager asked suspiciously.

Zhu Qizhen said: "Grandson, don't dare to deceive your mother. ”
