During the Chongzhen period.

The sad emperor Zhu Youzhen can be described as painstaking and discreet.

However, in the end, it failed to save the precarious Ming Empire.

Of course, there are reasons why Chongzhen is suspicious and stubborn.

But the more reason is that the national fortunes of the Ming Dynasty have fallen into decline, and the evil created by the previous generations of emperors, especially the Wanli Emperor Zhu Yijun, has already borne fruit.

The Ming Empire, which was difficult to return, could only go to defeat step by step.

Perhaps, the strategy proposed by Zhu Cizhi can save the Ming Dynasty.

However, the rebellion of the displaced people in various places and the general trend of the local government questioning the central imperial power have become a trend.

Emperor Chongzhen was no longer able to promote the implementation of reform policies.

In addition, the promotion of merchants, the opening of the sea ban, and the strengthening of infrastructure construction in cooperation with local governments have completely moved the national capital of feudal imperial power and the core interests of major power groups.

If the reform is implemented, I am afraid that in a few months, the major interest groups will add fuel to the flames of the displaced people and completely overthrow the Ming Dynasty.

Chongzhen understands this truth, the Manchu ministers understand, and Zhu Cizhi naturally understands it.

The best way to recast a fine porcelain is to break the old clay pot and re-forge it.

Zhu Cizhi understood that the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty and the vast area within the Guannai could no longer be reformed.

His real purpose is to pass outside Liaodong.

It was inevitable that the Liaodong region would be annexed by the Later Jin Jiannu, that is, the Qing Dynasty established by Huang Taiji a few years later.

The area around Liaodong is a clay pot that is about to be smashed.

It is also Zhu Cizhi's plan to use the system to re-establish the experimental field of the new Ming Dynasty.

He understands very well that if he pulls out any of the three items of business, sea opening, and infrastructure, it is impossible for his cheap father Zhu Youzhen to agree.

Therefore, he needs to provoke Emperor Chongzhen, and then put himself in his fiefdom, the Liaodong area where the Ming Emperor has no time to look north.

In Liaodong.

Fang Cai, the sea and the sky, do a lot.

Moreover, Zhu Cizhi has a very thorough understanding of Zhu Youzhen's character.

If anyone else proposes these four ...... No, you don't even need to put forward four good strategies to save the country, you just need to openly contradict Emperor Chongzhen in the court, clearly say that the Ming Dynasty will be finished, and then casually propose one of them, which will inevitably be the end of the crowd.

However, he is Zhu Youzhen's bloody son.

It is impossible to kill him.

However, he may drive himself to the fiefdom.

This is Zhu Cizhi's ultimate goal.

Really.

Emperor Chongzhen, who was smiling angrily, glanced over the court.

When his eyes fell on Wen Tiren, Zhou Yanru, Ruan Dacheng and other powerful ministers, the killing intent came out.

In the words of later generations, that is, "if you want to stab, you can't hide a person's eyes."

Obviously.

Chongzhen was suspicious again, and he was guessing in his heart which courtier forces were using Zhu Cizhi to oppose his authority.

Zhu Youzhen, who sneered, walked back to the dragon chair unhurriedly, and refocused his eyes on Zhu Cijiong.

"The first three national policies will be ignored for the time being."

"This fourth strategy, you mean to go to Liaodong to develop forces, gather people's hearts, accumulate strength, and stir up Jin Jiannu to not live in secret, and have no power to go south to make trouble."

"This strategy is quite acceptable, but who to send to Liaodong?"

Today's Liaodong has been stirred into a mess by Houjin Jiannu.

The state capitals were still nominally under the jurisdiction of the central imperial power of the Ming Dynasty, but in fact, it was not known how many local government heads had already defected to the Later Jin regime.

At this time, when I went to the dangerous Liaodong, it was a point of no life.

Seeing that the ministers were silent, Chongzhen sneered in his heart.

He knew it was the result.

None of these traitors are sincere and sacrifice their lives to serve themselves.

"Fourth prince, you have just been crowned as the eternal king, and you have a fief in Liaodong."

"Why don't you go to Liaodong in person?"

"You are young and promising, and you should be able to take on this great responsibility."

The ministers trembled, and no one dared to take over the conversation.

Everyone knows that if you go to Liaodong, you will definitely die.

Similarly, no one can figure out whether Chongzhen is really angry and wants to drive his son to Liaodong to die; Or deliberately squeezed Yongwang Zhu Cizhi with words-

Didn't you, Zhu Cizhi, keep saying that you have a good way to govern the country, and repeatedly claimed that you can't retreat to the Great Wall.

Then I will send you to Liaodong to become a vassal.

Look if you still keep your mouth shut.

Zhu Cizhi had been waiting for Chongzhen's words for a long time.

However, the acting is a full set.

But Chongzhen has to sit down with his words.

Otherwise, Chongzhen is soft-hearted and reluctant to let himself go, so he will be blind.

Zhu Cizhi hurriedly made a look of sincerity and fear.

"No, no, no, Erchen is too young to take on this big responsibility!"

"Moreover, the sons and daughters are reluctant to be filial to their father, and they just want to be filial under their father's knees."

"The mountains and rivers of Liaodong are far away, I don't know how long it will take to come back to see my father."

Chongzhen sneered in his heart.

This unlucky baby.

Didn't you just feel pretty good?

Now cowardly?

He deliberately added fuel to the fire.

"Don't you want to build any infrastructure, don't you want to build slaves in guerrillas, you have to pay attention to businessmen, and you want to open up the sea ban."

"I am all approved, you can use it as a pilot in Liaodong, and return to the dynasty after completing your ambitions."

"Father is waiting to see what you have done."

Chongzhen continued to beat Zhu Cizhi with words.

really let his son go to Liaodong, he was reluctant.

Just wait for Zhu Cizhi to continue to beg for mercy, and then let the courtier and prince Zhu Cihong help plead for mercy, and the matter will be over.

Result –

Zhu Cizhi trotted all the way and slipped to His Highness kneeling in front of him.

"You don't have any jokes, and the ministers there will obey the order."

"Father, you promised to do a pilot in Liaodong, and the will to implement the four national policies cannot be reversed."

"Also, how much food does my father plan to allocate to his sons?"

Yes?

This kid doesn't beg for mercy anymore?

But he has confirmed his will?

This kid is really brainless, he doesn't understand human feelings at all, can't he see it when he hits him?

Moreover, he just said it, and Zhu Cizhi, the kid, also agreed, even if the ministers and the prince begged for mercy, the words they said were like water spilled out, and they couldn't be recovered.

"Now that there are internal and external troubles, it is really time to use money, the court has no money, and I will find a way by myself!"

"Get out, hurry up and go to Liaodong to become a domain!"

"I don't want to see you for a moment, get out of here, don't delay."

The ministers were shocked.

Really let Zhu Cizhi go to Liaodong to become a vassal?

That's a death.

But the prince was ecstatic in his heart.

Hey, hey, let your kid get scared.

There's no way to compete with yourself for the throne now!

It was Zhu Cizhi, who was addicted to acting, who pretended to be a crying relative, for fear that Chongzhen would regret it, so he hurriedly continued.

"Thank you, Father Emperor Longen."

Don't look at Zhu Cizhi's appearance like a mourner.

My heart has long been happy.

Escape from the center of the political whirlpool in Hokpei, Kyoto!

Go to Liaodong to take up the domain, the emperor is far away, let him develop and play!!

The tasks of the system layout were completed!!

Calculate Chongzhen, kill three birds with one stone.

Get what you want, hehe.
