656.The Peerless Loyal Minister Wei Zhongxian (Whitewashing)

Wei Zhongxian is a big traitor, but the so-called traitor is just a reference to those political victims.

Wei Zhongxian is ruthless in dealing with his colleagues, but as long as he deals with the emperor, he is a loyal and capable minister.

All the historical materials that say that Wei Zhongxian wanted to rebel are wrong, because people can't find real evidence that he actually wants to rebel, and there is no point in his rebellion.

Don't talk about the apocalypse, Chongzhen is not against him, he is loyal to be an old dog, many people say that Chongzhen is good at covering up, but in fact, Chongzhen's acting skills are not necessarily good at fooling ordinary people, and Wei Zhongxian is born by acting.

He showed off his fart acting skills in front of the actor? Not to mention Cui Chengxiu and Gu Bingqian, almost everyone knows that Chongzhen wants to move Wei Zhongxian, isn't he not opposed?

Second, he is a capable minister, you are the emperor, you want money, he gets you money, you want the minister to be obedient, he supervises the princes and ministers for you, these people drop a copper plate in the house, you can hear the sound in the palace, you want the government to be peaceful, he will supervise you all kinds of rules and regulations, the implementation of pension and disaster relief, such a minister, don't you want? No matter how much Wei Zhongxian tosses, he hasn't lost a single cent of your imperial power.

It is even said that he is the representative of imperial power.

said that Wei Zhongxian formed a gang and became nine thousand years old. I'm convinced of this crime, who doesn't form a gang if he engages in politics? The Ming Dynasty opened the country, and they all stayed at home honestly, what else did Zhu Yuanzhang kill? Why did Hu Weiyong and Li Shanchang die? It's not like a gang and a faction?

The princeling Yanwang Party in the back, Qi Chuzhe in the back, the villain Yan Song Wen Tiren in the back, and the decent Sanyang Zhang Juzheng, I was stunned to find a person who didn't form a gang.

You are the Donglin Party, and Wei Zhongxian is a ruffian, a hooligan, a bastard, a dead lady, a beast and a dog, it's just that your personal position is different, don't forget, history is written by literati.

Wei Zhongxian was born at the grassroots level, and he knew that he would consider it from the perspective of the people, and later those guys would think about themselves and even the emperor wouldn't care.

People are multifaceted and have an ugly side, Wei Zhongxian is indeed a ruffian, a hooligan, a bastard, a dead lady, and a wealthy ghost.

Wei Zhongxian can be reused by Zhu Youxiao, just because when Zhu Youxiao was still the grandson, Wei Zhongxian has always followed Zhu Youxiao's side.

After Zhu Youxiao became the emperor, he would naturally give priority to reusing Wei Zhongxian and others, because in Zhu Youxiao's mind, these people were his descendants and the people he could rely on the most.

Of course, there must be more than one Wei Zhongxian in this kind of lineage around Zhu Youxiao, so Wei Zhongxian can become Zhu Youxiao's number one cronie, naturally because Zhu Youxiao believes that Wei Zhongxian's loyalty, ability, and courage far surpass others. In fact, Wei Zhongxian's name "Zhongxian" was given by Zhu Youxiao.

If it is put aside in modern times, the role of the three major halls is the façade of a country, which is equivalent to the Great Hall of the People and Tiananmen Square, so the construction at that time was not extravagant and wasteful.

When the Apocalypse Dynasty, the three major halls have been abandoned for more than 20 years, no matter who sees it, they all feel that the Ming Dynasty seems to be the sunset will be gloomy, if the Great Hall of the People and the Tianan's Gate Tower are collapsed today, what will foreigners think?

After the completion of the main hall, the Emperor of the Apocalypse rewarded Wei Zhongxian, saying that he did his best to build the three major halls and saved millions of taels of silver, but those Donglin parties did not recognize it, and said that Wei Zhongxian was extravagant and wasteful.

The three major halls collapsed for more than 20 years and have not been able to rebuild, Wei Zhongxian repaired the big work for a few years, saving time and money, Wei Zhongxian raised money for the border affairs, saved money for the big work, it was a merit, but the court was enough to reward the meritorious deeds, and the favor was too much.

Although Wei Zhongxian was greedy for power, he knew that there were also ways to scrape out the money of the big chaebol landlords to subsidize the finances, such as the Jiangnan Consortium.

During Wei Zhongxian's administration, there was no shortage of money in the border defense, and there was no rebellion, but he was still capable, and Wei Zhongxian's stability maintenance work was solid and effective, which deserves recognition.

Wei Zhongxian is not the evil recorded in the history books, everyone knows that the Ming Dynasty perished at the hands of Chongzhen, and the first thing Chongzhen did after coming to power was to kill Wei Zhongxian, Wei Zhongxian is dead, why did the Ming Dynasty still perish.

The Ming Dynasty only died in the Liukou, and in the final analysis, died in the Donglin Party.

And in the later period of Emperor Chongzhen, it was not called a change in the people, it was a rebellion, there were too many famous people, Zhang Xianzhong, Li Zicheng, Gao Yingxiang, what is the king, the general, the collapse of the sky, there are no surprises.

Why did Wei Zhongxian rebel so badly when Emperor Tianqi was alive, but the people did not rebel, but Chongzhen rebelled so much in the later period, you must know that Emperor Tianqi loved carpentry and ignored the government, but Chongzhen was not greedy for money, not lustful, worked for more than ten hours a day, and had patches on his clothes.

We all know that the industry and commerce developed rapidly during the Wanli Dynasty when Zhang Juzheng, and the so-called germ of capitalism appeared at that time. Because the country had no money, the gang of Houjin in Liaodong was making a lot of noise at that time.

The border defense and the army asked for money, and Wei Zhongxian made the border defense money by vigorously collecting industrial and commercial taxes, and the money in the treasury gradually increased at the time of the apocalypse.

After the fall of Wei Zhongxian, the Donglin Party came to power, the Donglin Party is actually Jiangnan Shidafu, and Jiangnan is a place where industry and commerce are highly developed, and the Donglin Party does not allow the emperor to collect industrial and commercial taxes for its own interests, and whenever the emperor says that there is no money to tax, they will say something like "the court can compete with the people for profit".

To give an example, during the time of Emperor Tianqi, Jiangnan alone had 200,000 taels of tea tax in the account, and Emperor Chongzhen couldn't even collect 100,000 taels.

So where did the money come from to fight the war without levying industrial and commercial taxes, this tax was counted on the heads of the peasants, and the Donglin Party also abolished the mining tax.

The so-called coal bosses do not pay taxes, capitalists do not pay taxes, and the bitter haha who guards one acre and three points of land every year has raised taxes year after year, and the Donglin Party has also canceled post houses in various places, which has caused many people to lose their jobs, including a person named Li Zicheng.

So look at why there was a popular uprising in Suzhou, the Emperor of the Apocalypse, but there was no poor place in Shaanxi, because there were many capitalists in Suzhou, and Wei Zhongxian's policies had violated their interests, and you can see that several of the people in the tombstones of the five people were businessmen.

In Shaanxi, Wei Zhongxian did not raise taxes on those peasants.

Who will rebel if there is food? Some might say that Chongzhen encountered the Xiaoice River period.

Which dynasty and generation did not have a disaster? Why did no one rebel when Emperor Tianqi was in power, and there were so many people who rebelled when Emperor Chongzhen arrived? Well, even if you take 10,000 steps back, it is the Xiaoice River period, and agricultural production has been greatly reduced, why does the imperial court still raise taxes on the peasants instead of collecting taxes from the capitalists?

There is a tax to be levied for farming, but there is no tax for mining? Do you do business without paying taxes? Some people say that the Donglin Party is honest, never compromises, loyal to the country or something, is the Donglin Party really honest? When the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, Qian Qianyi's money was even dumbfounded by the Manchurians, and they were loyal to the country.

Shun Heaven and the water is too cold.

It was because of the intransigence of the Donglin Party that the Ming Dynasty lost the last straw, when Yang Changsi said that the outside must first be settled, first negotiate with the Houjin, and do his best to exterminate the Liukou, and then a group of Donglin Party people said that the Heavenly Dynasty can yield to the barbarians and the like, and the Ming Dynasty is not the Donglin Party who has lost it.

When Li Zicheng invaded Beijing, Emperor Chongzhen hit the bell, and none of the civil and military officials saw him, and the only person who accompanied Emperor Chongzhen was the eunuch who people look down on today.

Chongzhen said before his death, I am not the king of the country, the minister is the minister of the country, this sentence is very right, Mingyue said that there were two kinds of ministers in Chongzhen, one was a bastard, the other was a bastard, Wei Zhongxian was in the Guanning defense line was formed, Sun Chengzong, Yuan Chonghuan, Man Gui, Zu Dashou was entrusted with reuse, after Wei Zhongxian's death, Sun Chengzong was dismissed, Yuan Chonghuan was killed.

Right! Wei Zhongxian died first, and then Yuan Chonghuan was killed!

Some people say that Wei Zhongxian fought for Sun Chengzong, but no matter what, when Wei Zhongxian was alive, Sun Chengzong could still get up if he went down, and after Wei Zhongxian died, well, he couldn't get up if he went down. The so-called hearing is false, and seeing is believing.

History said that Wei Zhongxian was a bastard, at least the Ming Dynasty did not die in his hands, and the Donglin Party was so great, and the Ming Dynasty died in their hands, but no matter how you blow it, the facts cannot be changed.

Why did the history books damage Wei Zhongxian and blow the Donglin Party, because it was the literati who wrote history, and it was impossible for them to write their kind as inferior to even a eunuch, but this is the case.
