Chapter 4 Planning Shaanxi, Suppressing and Pacifying
For the 30,000 taels of silver donated by the ministers of the cabinet in a short period of time, Zhu Jian is still quite satisfied, although for the huge three sides, 30,000 taels of silver is just a drop in the bucket. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
However, for Zhu Jian, this initiative to donate 30,000 taels of silver can at least explain one problem, that is, the emperor's deterrent and control over his ministers should exist.
Moreover, after the cabinet donated 30,000 taels of silver, the ministers proposed a complete set of courtier donation plans to Zhu Jian, which made Zhu Jian even more happy.
Of course, for Zhu Jian, what he is happy about is not necessarily the amount of donations, but he can take this opportunity to feel the depth of the imperial official system.
"Zhiwen, the donations of officials of all sizes in Beijing can be jointly issued by the cabinet and me, remember! The document admonished officials to do what they could. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
And just after Zhu Jian explained the matter of the silver two clearly, one of the people said sadly.
"Your Majesty! The minister heard, the lesson of the past, the teacher of the future. Therefore, the minister dared to plead with this silver tael, but it could not be distributed so easily! ”
Hearing this, this person was none other than Yang Sichang, Marquis of Wuling.
Just because he had been in grief before, he couldn't extricate himself, and now he heard that the emperor was going to give the silver two to Shaanxi and other places, but his heart was shocked, and he was busy.
"Oh, why did Wen Liang say this?"
Regarding what Yang Sichang said, Zhu Jian thought for a moment, but he could guess a rough idea.
That is nothing more than an argumentative relationship between 'suppression' and 'caressing'!
It's just that Zhu Jian still wants to hear Yang Sichang's words.
"Your Majesty, the minister thought that it was impossible to send the court's silver salary so hastily, and Weichen's father was blindly obsessed with appeasing these thieves, but he ignored that these people were wolf cubs who couldn't be raised, and the so-called milk is the mother! When the court has money for these people, these people will accept Zhao'an, and once they lose the money needed to feed these underfed wolf cubs, these wolf cubs are likely to bite back, and the ancestor is planted on this matter! ”
Hearing what Yang Sichang said, Zhu Jian said with a smile.
"Wen is weak, but you have misunderstood me, how can I not understand the truth of drinking to quench thirst? Most of those thieves are unfamiliar wolf cubs, how can I not know? It's just that I am in a hurry to pay the silver salary that the civil and military generals of the Manchu Dynasty will donate, and I am not for recruiting those capricious thieves, but for the people of my empire who are living in difficulty. ”
Zhu Jian's words are very clear, the money is not used to recruit peace, but to help the people of the Ming Empire, as for those thieves, if they put down their weapons and become the people of the empire, this money will naturally be there, and as for those who burn, kill and loot, and those who are stubborn, Zhu Jian has only one idea in his heart.
No mercy!
Hearing what the emperor said, Yang Sichang was speechless.
A moment later, he bowed down.
"Your Majesty, it's the minister who misunderstood!"
In the face of Yang Sichang's words, Zhu Jian grabbed Yang Sichang's hand and said in a deep voice.
"Wen is weak, I want to hear it, what do you think about the affairs of the Liukou in Shaanxi?"
Facing the emperor's ardent and hopeful eyes, Yang Sichang's face was a little dignified.
It's about the world's society, and there is no room for sloppiness!
Yang Sichang deeply understands the truth, so in the face of the emperor's question, for him Yang Sichang, it must be cautious.
After half a ring, Yang Sichang opened his mouth.
"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that now that Shaanxi is all over the place, it is a symptom, and Your Majesty should take this opportunity to kill one and pay tribute to one hundred! Use thunderous means to extinguish this sprout, and after that, Your Majesty can be blessed with the world and be compensated, so that everyone in the world knows that rebellion should be punished, and submission to Wang Hua is the right way! ”
Regarding Yang Sichang's words, Zhu Jian also understood the main points.
In short, that is another way of saying carrots and sticks, but the method that Zhu Jian asked for was to use carrots and sticks together, while Yang Sichang's rule was to use the sticks first, and then give the carrots after the pain.
However, in Zhu Jian's view, this method is a little inappropriate.
If it is really a big stick fat beating, not only is the effect of this big stick not great, but if it still gives people a sense of suffocation, so that people can't see any hope, so as to break the kettle and fight against the water, it will be more than worth the loss.
Thinking of this, Zhu Jian is the way.
"Wen is weak, I think what you just said, but there is a drawback, the so-called those who follow the sky survive, and those who go against the sky die, if it is really the first suppression, so that people who are in despair cannot see what is Shuntian between survival and death, and what is against the sky? Wouldn't that be against the peace of heaven, so in my opinion, in the midst of this oppression, they should be given a glimmer of hope, so that they can tremble in despair and feel that the whole empire, and I have not abandoned them, is it not good? ”
Regarding Zhu Jian's words, Yang Sichang was stunned when he heard it for the first time, but he thought that he Yang was also a generation of talents, so he naturally understood the meaning of the emperor's words, so it was the Tao.
"Wechen is ashamed, today I heard what His Majesty said, and I know what is a good word for governing the world."
Regarding the quiet sycophant with Yang Sichang, Zhu Jian smiled, but his face was a little dignified.
"Wen Weak, if I want you to take charge of this staff of conquest for me, are you willing?"
The emperor's words are clear, that is, let himself out of the three sides of the town, and Yang Sichang doesn't know about this.
It's just that his father has just passed away, and filial piety in the past three years is the norm of people, not to mention that Yang He is Yang Sichang, the special emotion of being a brother, a father and a friend, can definitely not be understood by ordinary people.
Of course, Yang Sichang also has other concerns in his heart, that is, the father and son have supervised three sides one after another, although they are appointed by the emperor, but once they have not achieved results for a long time, it is inevitable that they will be truthful.
said that the father and son have been on three sides for a long time, and they have not had any merits for a long time, and they have lived here for a long time, and they are afraid that they have already had a heart of disobedience.
If you want to say this gossip, Yang Sichang is not afraid.
But in this way, others slandered his dead father, but he was powerless to do anything, but he was unfilial.
If it really hasn't been fruitful for a long time, it will be a dishonest person.
Yang Sichang is not worried about his ability, but he is worried about the precipitation behind the trust, whether he Yang Sichang can bear it.
In addition, when his father died here, Yang Sichang was also worried that he was controlled by emotions and couldn't control the 'degree' that Zhu Jian said before.
That is how the use of sticks and carrots should be!
Thinking of these, Yang Sichang also had a plan in his heart.
"Your Majesty's entrustment, the minister should have been a liver and brain, not to mention that the minister's father died here, and the minister also wanted to avenge his father, a shame, but the minister's father just died, and the three-year filial piety ceremony is what the saint said, but the minister has to temporarily avoid the court, can not accept His Majesty's entrustment, and ask Your Majesty to forgive the minister for violating the holy will!"
