The fourth volume of the sharp blade out of the sheath Shenzhou moves

The winter sun shone in the gimbal of the gazebo, and the dappled sunlight was sprinkled on the three of them, warm.

When Emperor Chongzhen saw his words, he made Qin Haoming burst into tears, and he was very satisfied.

As a monarch, what he cares most about is the loyalty of his courtiers, especially the important ministers in his mind.

Nearby, Wang Dehua, who was on duty, commanded a few little eunuchs, carrying a few food boxes.

Qin Haoming turned around, wiped the tears in his eyes with some embarrassment, and saw Wang Dehua placing the wine, food, dishes and chopsticks, and a trace of disgust flashed on his face.

This eunuch, together with Wang Chengen, is called the two kings, and is also the eunuch of the ceremonial supervisor Bingbi, who controls the Dongchang and is deeply trusted by Emperor Chongzhen, but is not as loyal as Wang Chengen.

When Li Zicheng entered Beijing, it was he who opened the Desheng Gate to welcome the rebels.

"Your Majesty, this wine and food is too cold, and the portion is insufficient, where can we keep the three of us kings and ministers eating and drinking?

If you want Weichen to say, the use of this palace must be improved, and it can't even be inferior to the people's homes in the capital?

Only by eating, drinking, and having fun can you deal with the next complicated situation! ”

Seeing that it was a few simple side dishes, although the combination of meat and vegetables was quite reasonable, Qin Haoming couldn't help but complain.

It seems that Chongzhen's child is really poor, and now Neku is obviously rich, but he still maintains the simple traditions of the past.

Think about the old witch Cixi, which meal doesn't need dozens or hundreds of bowls of tossing, it really can't be fucking compared.

"Okay, today according to Aiqing's words, eat and drink well. Wang Daban instructed the inner kitchen to add vegetables. ”

Chongzhen's face was full of smiles, and with a flick of his dragon robe, he commanded Wang Dehua.

"Cover, the old slave will go and explain."

Wang Dehua leaned over and lowered his eyebrows and left.

"Your Majesty, this is another high-rise dive, and he has a good relationship with Chen Xinjia, the secretary of the Ministry of War."

After Wang Dehua left, Qin Haoming pointed to his figure and whispered to Emperor Chongzhen.

This is the first time that Qin Haoming has hacked people who have no intersection for no reason, and it is also a test of Emperor Chongzhen.

Wang Dehua is the old man of the Qiandi of Xinwangfu, who has always accompanied Chongzhen, and he is very easy to use, and there are almost no mistakes.

The reason why Qin Haoming chose him was that he happened to see it and did it easily. The second is to use him to test Chongzhen and see his true status in Chongzhen's mind.

"Is what Aiqing said true?"

Emperor Chongzhen looked at Qin Haoming with a dark face and asked in a deep voice.

Eunuchs are also human beings, and they also have family members and relatives, and they also need money to get by.

As the great eunuch beside Chongzhen, the filial piety he receives on weekdays must be indispensable. Chongzhen knows this.

But there must be a limit.

In Chongzhen's pure heart, it would be good to have tens of thousands of taels of the big eunuch around him.

However, the last time it was high and submerged, it was really unexpected by Chongzhen. If Wang Dehua is the same as him, doesn't it mean that he is worth millions of taels?

Moreover, as the prince of Dongchang, he still colluded with important ministers of the imperial court.

This is something Chongzhen can't bear.

"It's true!" Qin Haoming nodded and replied very affirmatively: "Your Majesty, don't forget that Wang Dehua is a native of Datong, Shanxi. ”

Don't beat the drum with a hammer!

Although Qin Haoming was concise and to the point, Chongzhen was already completely clear.

Datong, Shanxi, that is one of the nests of Jin merchants.

With the pervasive means of Jin merchants, how could they let go of such a good opportunity, and how could Wang Dehua be alone?

"Wang Dehua damn it! Luo Yang is incompetent! Chen Xinjia is unfaithful! ”

Chongzhen's face was gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and roared fiercely.

"Your Majesty, please stop your anger! Don't be spoiled by a mere house slave, it's not too late to make arrangements for another day and find out the truth. ”

Qin Haoming Shi Ran picked up the wine jug, poured three glasses of wine in turn, and pushed it to the table of Chongzhen and the crown prince Zhu Cihong.

Emperor Chongzhen's expression softened after hearing this, as Qin Haoming said, Wang Dehua is a slave of the Son of Heaven, although it is simple to deal with him, do not go through the court.

But his identity is crucial, and he can't act rashly.

As for Luo Yanghe and Chen Xinjia, it is necessary to have an in-depth understanding of many parties to verify, after all, they are important ministers of the court.

Emperor Chongzhen, who thought clearly, sighed, raised his wine glass to Qin Haoming and said: "What Aiqing said is very true, drinking, practice for Aiqing." ”

"Emperor Xie!"

The monarch and the minister looked at each other and smiled, and drank the wine in the cup.

"Why doesn't the prince have a taste of it?" Qin Haoming put down his wine glass, saw that Zhu Cihong had not touched the wine, and asked with a smile.

"Mrs. Yu, lonely and young, should not drink. There is a saying in Confucianism: A gentleman should not mess around! ”

Although Zhu Cihong was only a teenager, he answered with etiquette.

Qin Haoming frowned, Zhu Cihong was too deeply influenced by Confucianism, didn't he just drink a drink? How big of a deal?

also mentioned that there is a Confucian saying that such a child should not be restrained from an early age.

Good baby, it's hard to deal with state affairs.

He thought about it for a while, and decided not to let him be completely fascinated by Confucianism.

"Experiencing the various states of the world, tasting the ups and downs, and knowing the pattern of all things is part of the practice of life.

Especially if you, as the crown prince and the future emperor in charge of the world, you can't limit your thinking to one method, otherwise it will be the biggest mistake.

In particular, you want to govern the country in a Confucian way. ”

"Why? Since the Han Dynasty, which dynasty did not rule the country with Confucianism? Zhu Cihong asked puzzled.

"Confucian governance is to govern the people, not the monarch.

As a king, you can't bind yourself to one method, not to mention, this method is still wrong. ”

"What's wrong?" Chongzhen suddenly asked.

"Because they are all destroyed!"

Qin Haoming's words shocked Emperor Chongzhen's heart, and he asked tremblingly, "Could it be that Aiqing has found a better way?" Why blame Confucianism for the fall of the dynasty? ”

These are two completely different issues, which shows that Emperor Chongzhen's heart has been completely confused.

Qin Haoming's voice was very indifferent, and he said softly: "This country is composed of royal families, soldiers, poor people, gentry, etc.

Throughout the ages, the gentry class was the most solid foundation of every dynasty, and when they were stable, the country was stable.

And Confucianism is the spokesman of the gentry class.

It is undeniable that at the beginning of the founding of each dynasty, they can play a positive role in national unity and social stability.

Therefore, Confucianism has also become the most ideal partner of the imperial family.

However, the land in the Central Plains is limited, and the stability of the dynasty will allow the landlord class to develop rapidly.

They are like a pixiu, greedily devouring the land. The rich get richer, and the poor have no place to stand.

When the contradiction between land and population reaches a certain level, it will cause an overall change in social stability, and it will be time to change the dynasty. ”

At this time, Wang Dehua came over with a food box, and Qin Haoming was silent.

"Stand aside, all of you, and let no one come near without command."

After Wang Dehua and a few little eunuchs put the dishes in order, Chongzhen waved his dragon robe and said sharply.

"Aiqing, please drink!"

Wang Dehua left, Chongzhen raised his wine glass and drank it all.

Then he raised his hand and motioned for Qin Haoming to continue the topic just now.

Chongzhen's five-year-old biological mother was killed by a cane, and he and his brother Tianqi depended on each other.

His father died just a month after becoming emperor, and his brother drowned after seven years as emperor, and then the Ming Empire asked him to bear the end.

A sixteen-year-old child, without the help of his elders, let alone any education, completely relying on self-study and diligence, Qin Haoming's words today had a great impact on him.

The current Da Ming, isn't this the case?

"Confucianism can be used, not reused! This is what Taizu said.

At the end of the day, what the royal family needs is for the entire country to have their own roles at all levels.

But in the end, Confucianism often swallowed all the benefits, and at that time, the royal family was just a puppet. ”

"So, can you find a way to do it once and for all?" Emperor Chongzhen pondered for a long time before asking again.

"No way. The situation is ever-changing, just like Confucianism.

They are beneficial at the beginning of the establishment of a dynasty, but then gradually become a burden to a country.

Any policy that seems appropriate today, however, in a few years, may not be appropriate.

In this world, in this world, there is no eternal world, and there can be no eternal dynasty.

The court rises and falls, and the world is divided. As long as there is a desire in the heart, the chaos will not stop. ”

Qin Haoming's words were very straightforward and direct, and there was no flickering.

"Aiqing has studied the art of the emperor?" Chongzhen tasted half of the salary, and then continued to ask.

"The way of the country, reading and employing people, vertical and horizontal, the art of domination, including hundreds of schools, these are the core of the emperor's art.

And the most important thing for an emperor is to learn to balance, balance the forces of all parties, and not let any one become bigger.

It's all written in the book, but it's so hard to do! ”

Qin Haoming slowly recited the content of the Emperor's Technique, this thing is all over the street, but if you don't understand people, how many people can do it?

Otherwise, wouldn't the emperors of the ages be everywhere.

Emperor Chongzhen suddenly opened his half-squinted eyes, and the crown prince was even more frightened, staring at Qin Haoming with his eyes.

But Qin Haoming continued as if he hadn't seen it: "From the time the Qin Emperor unified China and established himself as the first emperor, after more than 1,500 years, dozens of dynasties were born and then collapsed.

For the throne of the emperor, for more than 1,500 years, he has experienced countless wars and intrigues, just to reach the pinnacle of power.

The emperor claims to be the Son of Heaven, is ordered by heaven, rules the whole country, gives what he wants, and takes life and death from people, but all this is only one side of power. ”

Emperor Chongzhen sat up straight, stared at Qin Haoming intently and asked, "Aiqing, please advise?" ”

"The lower ones work hard, the middle ones work wisely, and the higher ones work hard.

There is some truth in this, but it is not comprehensive, because there are still two most important factors missing, one is the table, the control of resources, and the other is the inside, the control of information. ”

"What are resources?" Emperor Chongzhen was puzzled.

"Gold, silver, food, cloth, ordnance, technology, including people, are all part of resources, and the emperor can control these so that everyone can obey orders and do everything like an arm."

"What is information?"

"Faith is communication, and information is news. He has mastered the news and channels of the whole country, and is not deceived or influenced by others. In order to take advantage of the asymmetry of information, let everyone use it for themselves. ”

Emperor Chongzhen trembled with excitement, stood up, and paced back and forth, "It's like drinking Daigo!" It's like drinking Daigo! I want to ascend to the great treasure for thirteen years, and now I know what an emperor is! ”

At the same time, he also felt a fear from the bottom of his heart, because no matter how he looked at it, he was not a qualified emperor.

The superior works hard, but except for the people around him, he can't even work for anyone, and he doesn't even know what those people are thinking.

The control of resources, if there is no Qin Haoming, he will not even have enough daily use of the palace, and the resources he can control are simply pitiful.

The control of information, he is still confused, without Dongchang and Jinyiwei, he has no idea what is going on in the outside world.

Wrong, and it wasn't until today that he realized he had done it wrong.

If it weren't for Qin Aiqing, Chongzhen shook his head, he didn't dare to imagine where Da Ming would go?

If Qin Aiqing wasn't loyal, how could he say this?

"Luck for the Ming Dynasty! What a blessing for the Ming Dynasty! Emperor Chongzhen looked up to the sky and sighed, tears looming in his eyes.

He is not a mediocre person, but unfortunately he has never been able to do it, and no one has ever pointed him out.

Or, there are people among the courtiers who understand, but no one wants to tell him. Without it, Interest!

"Qin Aiqing, please ask me what I should do?"

Emperor Chongzhen raised his wine glass and personally carried the brocade pier to the opposite side of Qin Haoming's small table.

At this moment, he is not a king, just a student.

For the sake of the Ming Dynasty that he worries about day and night, as well as the trillions of Ming people under his rule.

In 325 BC, when King Wuling of Zhao ascended the throne, Zhao was in the "land of four wars", facing a serious threat from powerful neighbors such as Hu and Qin, Qi, and was in danger of being annexed at any time.

The army of Zhao has always used the method of military vehicle warfare, which is clumsy, and in the face of the fierce cavalry assault of the Hu people, it is tired of coping, passively beaten, and almost unable to protect itself.

After a comprehensive reflection on the entire situation, King Wuling of Zhao decided to start a war against the backward traditional customs first, boldly abandoning the traditional robe and horse coat.

"There is no noble or cheap in the country, all follow the customs", and took the lead in wearing Hu clothes, and personally jumped on the horse and led the bow. Militarily, the Zhao army was completely reformed, which was dominated by infantry and military vehicles.

A year later, a new type of Zhao army, dominated by cavalry of the emerging service, appeared on the battlefield.

In the past seven years, King Wuling of Zhao led this brave and fierce new Zhao army to be invincible, not only subduing Zhongshan and other countries, but also opening hundreds of miles to the Hu people.

The army of Zhao changed the backward strategy of passive defense in the era of military vehicles, and used the offensive cavalry units that had grown rapidly after the reform, and attacked Xianyang, so that the strong Qin, who looked at the world, had to retreat.

With a small gram of the big, with the weak enemy strong, how strong!

Later, the Qin Dynasty implemented the Shang Dynasty Reform Law, enriched the country and strengthened the army, swept Liuhe, and leveled the world. ”

Qin Haoming answered the question, and slowly said the historical past that everyone is familiar with.

"Military reform! Where to start? ”

As soon as Qin Haoming finished speaking, Chongzhen patted the table table excitedly and asked happily.

"In the past, Taizu and Chengzu held 400,000 Beijing camps, but I don't know if there are 100,000 Beijing camps today? Can these 100,000 have 10,000 usable soldiers?

Can these 10,000 available troops be able to stop Weichen's 5,000 Dingnan Army for a moment?

Only when the sword and spear in one's hand are sharp, the bow and arrows are far away rather than the thick armor and the trench is deep, those with bad intentions will stay away! ”

Qin Haoming poured a full bottle of wine for Chongzhen and replied in a deep voice.

"Emperor, come here!"

Emperor Chongzhen turned his head and called Zhu Cihong over, pushed him to Qin Haoming's side, and said to the two with red eyes:

"Qin Aiqing, the emperor will follow Aiqing to Fuzhou today to teach, so that he can become a qualified king, please!"

At the moment, he is a father.

There is a certain risk in carrying out military reform in Beijing and moving the noble cheese. Therefore, Chongzhen wants the prince to leave Beijing, just in case!

This bone-hardened king can't say anything to ask for, even if it's his courtiers?

Otherwise, how could the coal mountain be hanged instead of moving south?

"Wechen did his best to thank the emperor for his grace!

But please ask the emperor to postpone the military reform of the Beijing camp until next summer. At that time, Weichen and the prince will bring back 5,000 elite horsemen to prevent the little ones from taking risks! ”

Qin Haoming was moved, really moved.

Perhaps, this is the real Chongzhen, a sensual person.

"The monarch and the minister are united, revive the Ming Dynasty!"

"The monarch and the minister are united, revive the Ming Dynasty!"

"The monarch and the minister are united, revive the Ming Dynasty!"

Accompanied by the collision of wine glasses, there was also a childish voice among them, which was the crown prince Zhu Cihong.
