Chapter 288: Entry, Entry!
"I'm guilty, I'm sorry for Lao Zhu, it's because I can't understand his good intentions.
I should have let him keep killing. ”
Yang Feng confessed to Zhu Yuanzhang, who was still icy, with a sad face.
So Lao Zhu is right.
His purge of meritorious heroes ensured that even during the Great War between the North and the South, there was no situation where a different surname took the opportunity to replace them, and even during this period, there was no situation of separating the locality, and now the chaos that Zhu Yunxi is facing is essentially that someone wants to take advantage of the civil strife in the Zhu family to realize his ambitions......
Well, not himself.
Are the generals under Lan Yu really afraid of accidentally injuring a vassal king?
Not necessarily.
They just wanted the war to continue, so that the imperial power of the Zhu family would continue to weaken in the war.
It is true that they do not necessarily want to replace or divide one side, but in a war-torn country, military generals can undoubtedly gain maximum power, and once they enter an era of peace, the power of military generals will definitely be suppressed.
Rabbit dead dog cooking!
Lao Zhu didn't need the old brothers, so he immediately found excuses to kill him.
But what about the state of war?
Old Jude continued to perform his brotherhood with the old brothers.
In peacetime, civilian officials held power, and Lao Zhu was paving the way for a civilian government in the later period, don't those generals understand? Although Zhu Yunxi's reforms touched the interests of Confucianism, they essentially established a civilian government, but it was not Confucian, but he could not give much power to military generals. Only in a state of war is the pillar of the court, the pillar of the country, and peace, especially the absolute peace like the Ming Dynasty that has almost swept away all the threats around it, that is what the generals do not want to see. Therefore, this civil strife is very important for the generals, who will not let the civil strife end quickly, and may even deliberately promote its prolongation.
And in this way, they seek to divide themselves.
The Mu family took advantage of this war to almost uproot King Min's power.
Zhu Yuanzhang's transfer of King Min to Yunnan is to prevent the Mu family from dominating one side in Yunnan, and the Mu family has been constantly squeezed out in various ways since King Min was in the past.
Now solve it once and for all.
Even after the battle, King Min didn't want to go back to Yunnan.
After all, the guards were all swallowed by Mu Sheng.
Wang Bi has actually formed a separation, although he is guarding his son-in-law, but if the war goes on for a long time, he is basically equivalent to the king of Annan in Annan, even if his son-in-law goes back, he will have to listen to him in the future.
The He family is also divided in Guangzhou, although the original history of the Lanyu case He Rong brothers were killed, his uncle He Di rebelled, and then was solved by the Ming army in Guangzhou, but this time relying on the lure of overseas trade, the Ming army in Guangdong actually joined forces with the He family. The latter controls the trade to Nanyang, and the generals of Guangdong have followed to make up shares, and Yang Feng's joint-stock system of the Shanxi Wooden Rail Company has been very successful, and the wooden rail can be connected to Datong this year. This model can be applied completely, in fact, Ma He recommended this to the Fujian and Cantonese gentry, he told the Fujian and Cantonese gentry about the gold everywhere overseas, and then told them that the emperor wanted to monopolize overseas trade. Do you want to take this opportunity to force the emperor to lift the sea ban and form a joint-stock company together to make a fortune, or are you willing to honestly wait for the emperor to win, and then he monopolizes these, and you can only watch from the sidelines?
They certainly choose the former.
What was the purpose of Zhou Dexing and Geng Bingwen not attacking Beiping in the north?
Wait for the price to sell!
Now they matter!
Before, they were just waiting for retirement and pension, but now that Zhou Dexing has even restored his title, if he continues to fight, I am afraid that Zhu Yunxi will only be able to promote him to duke.
Is it true that Xu Huizu can't solve those guards of the Qin Domain in Shaanxi?
Why did he solve it?
Now that he has taken charge of the military and political affairs of Shaanxi, he is the king of Qin in the past, and even Chang Sheng is not as powerful as he is now, mainly to maintain the vigilance of the guards of those vassal kings in Longyou, and Zhu Yunxi must give him enough power. If he really wants to solve the Qin Domain's guards, Zhu Yunxi will let him immediately lead the army west to Longyou, and then the military power in Shaanxi will be handed over to the local officials, so why should he solve the Qin Domain's guards?
And that's just the beginning.
If this war continues, or even for three or five years, then these generals with different surnames will really play the Ming Dynasty into a new round of five dynasties and ten countries.
It was Zhu Yuanzhang's purge of the heroes that made the Ming Dynasty not appear in the Ming Dynasty during the original historical Jingjing period, although the Zhu family did not let the different surnames take the opportunity to rise, and the Ming Dynasty did not start a new round of continuous turmoil. When Zhu Di invaded the capital, everything quickly settled, and everyone changed the name of the year and continued to do what they should do in a unified empire. But now because of the appearance of Yang Feng, Lao Zhu didn't kill those who killed in the later period, such as Wang Bi, Bi He Rong, and even a bunch of them, Zhou Dexing, Cao Xing, Cao Zhen, Sun Ke, Zhang Yi, etc., plus Lan Yu. As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang died, these veterans who were originally under his suppression could not really surrender to his grandson, in the final analysis, everyone fought the world together, especially Zhou Dexing, who still doesn't know who?
His Zhu family can be the emperor, and it's not really the destiny of heaven, he is just a begging for food, why can't others in the world if he can be the emperor?
Even if you can't be an emperor, it's always okay to divide a piece, right?
He is alive, and everyone really doesn't dare.
Their Zhu family is united, and everyone really doesn't dare.
But now that their Zhu family has started fighting on their own, why don't they dare? Who doesn't want to share a piece of this big flower world? Lan Yuzhen doesn't want to be a powerful minister? Xu Huizu really doesn't want to divide one side? Who doesn't want to be in front of power? The local gentry dared to oppose the imperial power, why did they think that they were all unruly generals who didn't want to?
"That's right, if you hadn't appeared, the Zhu family would have rotted meat in the pot no matter how beaten it was, and now it's really hard to say how many people are worried about this meat, hurry up and end it, if it drags on again, it will really be a big mess in the world."
The little princess said that Lan Yu had recently been very dissatisfied with the Chinese courtiers of the DPRK.
He wanted the emperor to issue a decree declaring the kings to rebel.
But the emperor still disagreed, so he thought that it was the bewitchment of those few civil ministers, especially Ru Yu, the secretary of the military department, and Yu Xin, the secretary of the household department, who were already trying to push him back to the division. However, it should not be so simple, these generals want to show their power over the civilian officials, so that the civilian officials can understand that the military generals have the final say in the imperial court. Lan Yu himself actually regarded himself as the emperor's elder, and repeatedly criticized the government and government, although he was actually because the civil officials did not let the emperor declare the vassal king a rebellion, and the household department was not very dependent on him in terms of military supply. But he does lack the consciousness of a minister to the emperor, and now the emperor still respects him, but if this continues, I am afraid that they will also have contradictions. ”
Sister Liu said.
So Zhu Yuanzhang's concern about Lan Yu is not unreasonable.
It is unlikely that this guy will be Yang Jian.
After all, he is different from Yang Jian, Yang Jian is also a hereditary gatekeeper, and he is a military leader at best.
However, the possibility of him doing a prostration is extremely high.
Ao Shaobao is absolutely loyal to our Qing Dynasty, and he has no second heart for Brother Ma, everything he does is indeed to maintain our Qing Dynasty, but the monarch and the minister are different after all, as a minister, you must have the consciousness of a minister. Now Zhu Yunxi doesn't care about the problem of Lan Yu interfering too much in the government, but after a long time, he will be angered after all, and it is even likely that this is the purpose of those civil servants.
These aren't good birds either.
They used to live cautiously under the pressure of old Juwei, but they were all old foxes themselves.
The issue of the vassal king is not important.
No matter how much trouble there is, there will be a resolution one day, but the struggle between the two groups of Wenchen and military generals is eternal.
Whether it is Zhu Yuanzhang or Zhu Yunxi, they both want to establish a civilian government, but now that the power of the military generals has been re-enhanced, then at this time, the military ministers must find a way to pull down the military generals, and the current core of the military generals group is Lan Yu. If you can provoke Lan Yu and the emperor to have a conflict, then the civil official can laugh in the back, deliberately stimulate Lan Yu, let him point fingers at the government, and then remind the emperor that Lan Yu is in power, and the emperor is not good-tempered, so it's no wonder that the two don't clash!
"Ma, you should let these guys who were originally dead follow Lao Zhu together."
Yang Feng said.
"To the south?"
Sister Liu said.
"Go south!"
Yang Feng said.
"Entry?"
Sister Liu said.
"Enter!"
Yang Feng said.
Then he turned to look at the green slave.
"Go, get my chariot ready!"
He said.
"Master, do you want to gather people?"
Green Slave asked.
"No, I solved this little thing as soon as I showed up, it was nothing more than thinking that I was dying at sea, and everyone was bold, I want to see if any of them dare to face me."
Yang Feng said.
"I don't think so, it's not the past, cannons, arquebuses, and even flintlock pistols are all ordinary weapons on the battlefield, even heavy artillery is not uncommon. Even if you can withstand cold weapons, can you withstand ordinary firearms, can you still withstand an eighteen-pounder cannon? What emboldened them was not only the news that you died at sea, but also the firearms that are currently flooding, only the elite in the army had some primitive firearms back then, and now Jiangsu and Zhejiang can find an iron workshop to build a Franco machine.
It is said that the group training in Suzhou has begun to be replaced with heavy arquebuses.
People don't have to be afraid of you. ”
Sister Liu said.
"Hmph, I'll let them know that your grandfather is still your grandfather after all.
Tell the little princess and Zhang Ying that I'm going to enter the customs. ”
Yang Feng said.
Capital.
"The world is going down!"
Huang Guan, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, looked at the little girls who poured into the city with a sad heart......
Yang Feng's righteous daughters.
Zhang Ying took them to Lu Wangfu just to live temporarily, mainly because the supporting houses in the capital still have to be built, and now they have to come to the capital to live. In Yanzhou, they still have to solve the problem of eating, and now because of the war, the price of grain in the north has begun to rise sharply, after all, the canal that originally transported grain is now mainly used to transport military supplies. The cost of living in the capital is the lowest, and they still need to go to school, and there are not so many teachers in Yanzhou, so they just need to be sent to schools that have been open for many years.
At this moment, this huge team is causing countless onlookers.
After all, these are girls from the Western Regions.
Even if the capital is no longer uncommon for women in the Western Regions, since last year, there have been female slaves from the Western Regions who have been captured by soldiers from the Western Expedition who have been sold to the capital, and now whether it is the teaching department or the inner houses of wealthy nobles, beauties from the Western Regions have begun to appear.
The palace has it.
Song Sheng specially presented several beauties from the Western Regions to His Majesty the Emperor.
It is said that he was still from a famous family.
It is likely that it was used to show his loyalty to the Ming Dynasty.
But the influx of thousands of such little girls in a queue is still shocking.
It's just that they are all a little unique in their dresses, all of them are very gorgeous little long skirts, and they are all the most flowing fabrics, and they are all wearing shawls and the like, and the breeze is colorful and colorful, looking like a group of flying little fairies.
"Lan Boyan is serious, these are actually on the Dunhuang murals, but they really have existed since ancient times."
Zhang Xianzong said with a smile.
He is now a university scholar.
However, the bachelor at this time is not the same as the later Zaifu, at this time it is his own position, acting as the emperor's secretary general, he is now the most trusted minister around the emperor, but the emperor is more often dictatorial, at most he can listen to his advice.
It's about the same as when Zhu Yuanzhang was around.
After all, the little emperor is on par with his grandfather in everything.
At this time, those scriptures in Dunhuang have been found.
But it was not sent to the capital.
In this environment of the capital, it is very unfavorable for the preservation of these things, after all, they need to be dry, to the capital a rainy season will be rotten, in fact, the most suitable for preservation is Dunhuang, so although they are found, they are still preserved in the local specially built Tibetan scripture pavilion. Then the imperial court specially sent people to copy it, including those murals, and this project began when Zhu Yuanzhang was still alive. But because of the long distance, at this time, the first batch of scriptures and murals had just been sent back to the capital by the eunuchs in charge, and the Ministry of Rites had not seen them, but Zhang Xianzong had already seen them in the palace.
Huang Guan didn't speak, just watched the little girls in flying costumes walk by.
"Bachelor Zhang!"
At this time, Zhang Ying came on horseback and greeted Zhang Xianzong.
"Zhang Nushi."
Zhang Xianzong hurriedly returned the salute.
Zhang Ying is still not Yang Feng's concubine in theory.
She is also the female history of the little princess, and the emperor of Daxing assigned to serve the princess.
"Zhang Nushi, I wonder if there is any news of Ambassador Yang?"
Zhang Xianzong asked casually.
"Yang Feng, hasn't he been in Huining all the time?"
Zhang Ying said as if this matter should be known to everyone.
Huang Guan's face quickly changed.
"Zhang Nushi, you said Ambassador Yang is in Huining?"
He asked hurriedly.
"Yes, he has always been in Huining, not long after he went to sea, he learned that Ma He returned, and there was no need to welcome him again, so he went directly north to the Wa Kingdom, and then went to Huining, he said that he was going to plant rice in Huining, so he had to go over to preside over in person, he had already arrived in Huining last year, didn't the capital know here?"
Zhang Ying said.
Huang Guan didn't even have time to say anything more, and turned around and left without hesitation.
"Zhang Nushi, is this true?"
Zhang Xianzong said.
"Of course it's true, I thought he had sent someone to inform the princess."
Zhang Ying said.
"Farewell!"
Zhang Xianzong also turned away without hesitation.
Zhang Ying smiled happily in the back.
And then the news spread in the capital, and even throughout the Ming Dynasty.
