Chapter 374: Hai Ruicha Xu Family

Now Emperor Zhu Zailei completely believed in radio communication technology, and took the initiative to ask for a radio room to be built in the Qianqing Palace.

Nanjing, Xi'an, Chengdu, Wuchang, Haojing and other places have also established radio stations.

Whether it is Emperor Zhu Houzhao or the officials under him, if he has important matters, he can directly contact Emperor Zhu Zailei in a relatively short period of time.

The Ming Dynasty began to enter a new era of information exchange.

This also means that the society of Daming will undergo new changes, and even affect the whole world.

But there are still people who will realize this.

Foreign vassal states and natives were at war frequently.

England destroyed Scotland and Ireland, established the powerful British Empire, and the monarch Zhu Zaiyuan continued to implement the monarchical dictatorship.

However, England still united with Zhu Zaiwei, the king of the West, to destroy France and divide the territory of France equally.

Zhu Zaiwei and Zhu Zaiyuan, the descendants of the Ming imperial family, do not seem to have the intention of vigorously developing the commodity economy, suppressing the bourgeoisie internally, developing agriculture, monopolizing trade abroad, exporting grain to the Ming Dynasty, and even using surplus labor and surplus wealth to open up territory.

The source of the weapons was the Royal Industrial Company controlled by several major consortia behind the Central Empire of the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, the biggest boss behind these consortia is Zhu Houzhao.

The British king and the king of the west even fought a war with each other in order to occupy territory, under the control of the central empire of the Ming Dynasty, the two won and lost each other, but finally under the mediation of the envoy sent by Zhu Houzhao, they agreed to draw a line on the Loire-Danube-Carpathians, with the north of the line going to the British king and the south of the line going to the king of the west.

Of course, Zhu Houzhao forbade them to expand east of the Black Sea.

However, the agreement that Zhu Houzhao made them reach also made them obey and began to build an empire one to the north and the other to the south.

The expansion of the British King Zhu Zaiyuan is obviously more difficult, compared to the Western King Zhu Zaiyuan.

Because the king of the West, Zhu Zaiwei, took the initiative to join the Catholic Church, and took advantage of the contradiction of religious beliefs to easily unite the principalities to defeat the Ottoman Empire, and the governor of the Ming Dynasty in Ceuta also united the king of the West in order to open up the Suez Canal and prevent the Ottoman Empire from going south.

But these are not things worth paying much attention to in China.

During Zhu Houzhao's trip to England, the victories of the Ming Central Empire through several naval battles also made the Chinese people realize that it is difficult for overseas vassal states to resist the Ming court now, and even if the court wants them to pay taxes now, they will not dare to disobey it again.

Domestic politicians are still concerned about how they can get more benefits and how to be more extravagant in this peaceful and prosperous era.

On the second day after Zhu Zailei returned from Zhu Houzhao, He Weibai, the imperial historian, impeached Qi Jiguang for killing his ministers without permission and being arbitrary, and demanded that the criminal department be brought to justice, but he was beaten back here by Yang Xuan, the imperial historian of the left capital.

The reason why Yang Luan called back was that Qi Jiguang was not a good killing, because Qi Jiguang was in compliance with military law, and Zhao Wenhua was also killed because of his participation in the military at this time, so he should follow the military law system, as long as the privy councillor of the Guards and the General Military Justice Department have no objections, the Metropolitan Procuratorate has no right to intervene.

"Emperor Taishang's trick back then was really ruthless, let the military general take charge of the Imperial Procuratorate, and the civil official served as the imperial history of the Imperial Procuratorate, which is equivalent to letting the military attache control our civil ministers, and now the impeachment of the imperial history He Weibo can't reach the heavens, and now he can only pinch his nose and admit this loss!"

Xu Jie was also helpless when he found out.

Zhu Houzhao saw that the civil officials did not make much waves now, and he also knew that it was he who made the imperial history of Zuodu serve as a military minister.

After all, an official like Yang Lan, who was originally a high-ranking general of the Guards, knew military law and dared to oppose the entire civilian clique.

Zhu Houzhao did not exterminate the gentry of the Ming Dynasty as he did in England, so with the help of open trade and industrial development, the power of the domestic gentry is still very large, to be precise, they are the imperial middle class, and the Ming Dynasty is the most developed country in the world, and the natural middle class is the largest.

Therefore, there are still a lot of gentry in the Ming Dynasty, but now they have to pay taxes and be subject to more just legal restrictions.

The Ming Dynasty's maritime trade, as well as large-scale mining, manufacturing, and financial industries, were controlled by the Ming royal family and several large chaebols controlled by the royal family, that is to say, the most profitable business in the Ming Dynasty was basically controlled by the royal family and a few big chaebols, and these middle-level gentry could only deprive the Han people at the bottom if they wanted to jump to a richer chaebol.

However, the royal family and the big chaebols who controlled the Ming regime naturally did not want these gentry to exploit the Han people at the bottom too harshly, so Hai Rui, who represented the interests of the imperial court, naturally would not be too polite to these gentry after arriving at Yingtianfu.

As soon as Hai Rui arrived in Yingtianfu, he strengthened the management of the corresponding Tianfu, and the gentry also knew that Hai Rui's temper was much more restrained than usual, and the businessmen no longer gave gifts to officials, and the officials did not dare to eat and take cards anymore, so as to avoid being caught by Hai Rui and rectified.

Although these gentlemen were very careful, some commoners still sued Hai Jui in front of him, and directly sued Xu Jie, the first assistant of the cabinet, for encroaching on the people's land.

Zhu Houzhao has changed everything in the Ming Dynasty for so many years, and even the imperial examination has evolved to the point that only the national higher education entrance examination and the official examination presided over by the provinces remain, but he has not carried out land reform, let alone turned private land into public ownership of land.

Therefore, there are still phenomena of land annexation, and naturally there will still be contradictions between people and land.

It's just that Zhu Houzhao turned the landless people into urban workers through the development of industry.

It is not surprising that the Dashi clan in a place like Xu Jiejia will still encroach on people's land in this world, and many times, the people can only accept the fact that their land is encroached upon, but because they can still survive by entering the city to work, so they did not revolt because of this.

Of course, the people of the Ming Dynasty could not be willing to be encroached upon, not to mention that after the popularization of education, they would also take the initiative to fight for and protect their rights and interests by using the law.

Now that Hai Rui has come to Yingtian to be the governor, these people naturally have more confidence, and they immediately complained to Hai Rui.

Although today's Ming Dynasty has a test law and harsh anti-corruption laws, and the income and treatment of officials are also much more generous, but the rule of officials is not really very clear, after all, as long as they are people, they will have selfish desires, even if many officials in the Ming Dynasty are people who are loyal to the monarch society, but those who can be officials are shrewd people, how can they be brainwashed by one or two sets of theories, and even the most opposed to theories.

It is impossible to rule as clear as water as soon as possible, and it is impossible to have absolute fairness in this world, but the rights of ordinary people have now increased greatly, and they are no longer as cheap as mustards, let alone slaves, unless they are really too lazy to sell their dignity to live in this world.

Therefore, these gentry and officials did not dare to be bullied too hard by the people.

Now that the literacy rate has increased, there are not many foolish people, and the people have become more and more assertive, and the emergence of officials like Hai Jui has naturally given the people a better opportunity to protect their rights and interests.

Hai Rui was naturally not afraid of power, found out the truth, forced the Xu family to spit out all the embezzled land, and also reported the Xu family's involvement in violating the law to the imperial court.

Emperor Zhu Zailei saw all the illegal accusations about Hai Rui's son of Xu Jie, and did not approve the arrest of Xu Jie's son, and suppressed the matter.

The reason is very simple, Emperor Zhu Zailei doesn't want to make this matter too big.

Zhu Houzhao put Hai Rui to Yingtian as the governor at the beginning, just to teach Xu Jie's lesson, and now if Emperor Zhu Zailei wants to deal with Xu Jie's son according to the law, he will naturally not care, he believes that the people will ask him to take care of it.

Because, today's Ming is no longer the Ming Dynasty that used to be the ruler of the world, and the people gradually regard themselves as the masters of this empire, and they gradually begin to ask the rulers of the empire to do things according to their will.

Hai Rui stabbed Xu Jie's son's embezzlement of hundreds of thousands of acres of land to the local newspapers and periodicals of Yingtianfu, and now as soon as this radio is used, Huangming Bao immediately reported the matter, so everyone in the world soon knew about Xu Jie's two sons.

Yang Jisheng, the right attendant of the Criminal Department, asked His Majesty the Emperor to deal with Xu Jie's son according to the law, after all, the evidence provided by Hai Rui has been conclusive, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate has also approved it, so he will wait for the emperor's permission and then take the person.

Emperor Zhu Zailei was also not good at protecting Xu Jie, so he had to agree to deal with Xu Jie's son according to the law.

Xu Jie was also helpless about this, knowing that if he met such a serious official as Hai Rui, even if he was in a high position, it would be useless, even if the emperor was willing to help him, but he believed that Hai Rui in Ying Tianfu was by no means something he did not want to see alone.

Of course, the only one who can help Xu Jie's is Emperor Zhu Houzhao.

Only Zhu Houzhao can still forcibly trample on the law now, because Zhu Houzhao still holds military power and has a lofty position.

But Zhu Houzhao naturally wouldn't help Xu Jie, after all, he arranged all of this like this.

Zhu Houzhao will not trample on the laws of the Ming Dynasty for Xu Jie, he is the person who really holds the supreme power of the Ming Dynasty, but he is not willing to go against the grain and let the people of the Ming Dynasty continue to be the slaves of this Son of Heaven.

Zhu Houzhao is now also thinking about how to go in the Ming Dynasty after a hundred years, if Emperor Zhu Zailei is allowed to take over his military power, what he can guess is that Emperor Zhu Zailei will become the next dictator, and will have the most wealth and the most powerful army in the empire.

But what about the emperor after Emperor Zhu Zailei, what if he becomes a faint monarch who only cares about his own selfish interests or an emperor who is incompetent, Zhu Houzhao feels that he can't rely on the subjective cognition of the peaceful and prosperous life of hundreds of millions of people in the Ming Dynasty.

Moreover, Zhu Houzhao believes that as the people become richer and more demanding, they will become more and more reluctant to be trampled on by the emperor at will, unless the emperor can give them more benefits, so much that they don't care about dignity, but once the emperor can't give it, they will definitely oppose this emperor or even overthrow the emperor.

Zhu Houzhao found that if the Ming Dynasty continued to develop like this, after people became more and more noble, the emperor would sooner or later be pulled off the altar or turned into a symbol of etiquette.

"Forget it, go with the flow, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, whoever wants to be pushed to the guillotine in the future, don't blame me, if you want to blame, blame yourself for being a loser", Zhu Hou said to himself as he looked at the electric light that has been widely used in the daily life of the government and the people.

Zhu Houzhao may be because of his age, and he began to be lazy, and he couldn't think of a good way for a while, so he simply didn't think about it anymore, but still held the military power, and planned to wait until he really left this world before handing over the power to Emperor Zhu Zailei, as for how Emperor Zhu Zailei would use this power, and whether he would be guillotined because of excessive use, he didn't want to care.

Zhu Houzhao found that even if he was a traverser, even if he held the highest power, he could not directly control the future historical trend, which made him feel powerless, and he began to feel that it was not interesting to control power, and for a while, he also had a sense of enlightenment.

But the Wa State still has to be destroyed, the development direction of the Ming Empire, Zhu Houzhao can no longer predict and control, but in the specific example, for example, whether the Wa State should be destroyed, he can still be sure, after all, history proves that if the civilization of the Wa State is not eliminated in advance, he will dare to annex Huaxia when he has a little strength, and if he is stronger, he will dare to annex the world.

Qi Jiguang's army has left Ryukyu, and more than 100,000 troops have begun to arrive in the Wa Kingdom as scheduled.

At this time, the Wa State also learned the news that the Ming army was coming.

At this time, the actual warlord who controlled the Shogunate of Wakoku was Oda Nobunaga, a famous military general in Japanese history.

But now Oda Nobunaga has just taken control of the Muromachi shogunate.

The other daimyo of the Wa Kingdom were not convinced by Oda Nobunaga and formed an encirclement of Oda Nobunaga.

In general, at this time, the Wa State was indeed in a divided state as reported by Jinyiwei.

However, Oda Nobunaga also knew the seriousness of the matter after learning that the Ming army was going to conquer the Wa Kingdom, and began to take the initiative to compromise and send envoys to contact the daimyo who opposed him, in an attempt to unite these daimyo and fight against the Ming together.

However, although Oda Nobunaga controlled the Muromachi shogunate, he was not a shogun, and could only be regarded as a powerful minister, so even if these daimyo were willing to unite against the Ming Dynasty, they were not willing to serve Oda Nobunaga as the master.

The Ming side has sent envoys in advance to contact some daimyos, saying that the Ming Dynasty's expedition to destroy the Japanese is not to destroy the Japanese but to cut down Wudao, and the so-called Wudao is to punish Oda Nobunaga, a disloyal and unrighteous person who usurped power.

The Ming Dynasty is the suzerain, and there is naturally no sense of disobedience to put forward such a reason for fighting, and many daimyo who have contradictions with Oda Nobunaga really believe in the words of the Ming Dynasty, and are unwilling to fight against the Ming Dynasty with Oda Nobunaga, but they are more determined to eliminate Oda Nobunaga's heart.

On this day, Lu Bo led the navy to arrive at the port of Nagasaki in the Japanese state on the order of Qi Jiguang, and did not encounter resistance from the Japanese state, and was welcomed by the local daimyos.

When Lu Bo came to Nagasaki Port, he did not begin to implement the ruthless policy required by the Ming court, after all, now only the navy came to the Japanese country, and he had to gain a firm foothold.
