Chapter 90: The name Tianjin

"Your Majesty, since the old minister is with him, there are some things that have to be said. The son of a daughter can't sit down. Your Majesty bears the weight of the world, and a place like Liaodong should not have been visited. Even if you want to go, you can just go by land. How can you abandon your car and board the ship? Where is Your Majesty in the world? Li Shanchang said loudly in front of hundreds of officials.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't listen carefully to what Li Shanchang was doing. Instead, he looked at the faces of many officials who accompanied him.

Although many officials do not have a trace of expression on their faces. However, there are some young officials who still do not have this kind of cultivation. Some subtle expressions on their faces, revealing their tendencies.

It was they who agreed with Li Shanchang's idea. I even admired Li Shanchang.

Zhu Yuanzhang also understood. In his opinion, he is not an unreasonable person. But in the eyes of many officials, Zhu Yuanzhang is a moody tyrant. Gaine, Zhu Yuanzhang's truth is only Zhu Yuanzhang's own truth, and it is not accepted by these people.

Their reasoning is that they can't punish doctors. He should rule the world with the scholars.

Now facing Zhu Yuanzhang, he sees them as the same as the common people. They are completely unacceptable.

Yes. Zhu Yuanzhang tortured a lot, and He Xi couldn't stand it. However, for the real people at the bottom, these tortures are really nothing.

You don't think that those tortures were all founded by Zhu Yuanzhang, right? Not really, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't use his creativity. But there is a basis for these tortures.

Torture is used on mud legs, and there is no problem at all. But when applied to them, it is an unbearable weight.

Zhu Yuanzhang has always known that many officials praise saints in their mouths, but in their hearts, they always want the prince to ascend the throne. It's just, but over the decades, countless heads have proved one thing, that is, if you want to live, don't look at the emperor.

Now, at last, there is a hard head. Wouldn't it be admired by the government and the opposition?

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes swept around, and finally looked at Li Shanchang's face. Elder Li Shan's face was as rare as it was back then. Zhu Yuanzhang remembered that Li Shanchang had just arrived under the tent, but he was very unruly. Both sides are very unhappy on many things.

This is also why, as soon as Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, he sent home the first hero of the founding of the country who was only in his sixties. What makes him idle. Even in Hu Weiyong's case, it was Hu Weiyong who was handled, and it was actually Li Shanchang's person who was killed.

Zhu Yuanzhang never felt that Li Shanchang didn't understand what he meant. I don't understand what I'm doing. And the reason why Li Shanchang is like this is just for one breath.

A breath of breath that has been held at home for twenty years. It is to rely on the old and sell the old.

How can Zhu Chongba take him?

Zhu Yuanzhang talked with Li Shanchang many times along the way. Zhu Yuanzhang drew lessons from some historical practices. There is still a last glimmer of hope that this matter can be resolved peacefully. Killing people is not good after all. Especially to kill people like Li Shanchang. The sequelae are too great.

Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't care about his reputation. At his point, the merits of the ages are no longer something that some people can denigrate. However, Zhu Yuanzhang's fate to Zhang Juzheng. Very vigilant. Zhang Juzheng's fate was admonished. All the courtiers in the world, don't die for the Ming Dynasty.

As a result, Da Ming no longer has the ability to turn the tide. The rest of the first assistants of the past dynasties are doing the same work as Li Hongzhang. Paste a broken house.

After Wanli, Daming was actually saved. It's just that no one wants to save it anymore.

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Since the sixteenth year of Hongwu, overseas new construction, four towns and three kingdoms. The customs tariff has surpassed the salt tax and has become the second largest tax in the Ming Dynasty. The ocean is also the territory of the Ming Dynasty. How can the Son of Heaven not pay attention to the sea frontier. As for the beginning of my cloth. I haven't seen anything like this. I'm also afraid of the waves. Needless to say. ”

"Your Majesty, no." Li Shanchang said loudly.

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Guogong doesn't have to worry too much, if you don't want to go, you can stay." ”

Li Shanchang said: "Your Majesty, the ministers advise, not that the ministers are timid. The minister is more than eighty, even if he can die, it is normal. It's just worrying about the world. Your Majesty goes to sea, how can the minister not follow. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Okay. Knowing that Han-Guogong is loyal. Zhu Yuanzhang had a definite killing plan in his heart.

Immediately, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Tianjin Wharf. said: "It's good here. Someone is waiting for you. ”

Someone immediately presented it.

Zhu Yuanzhang wrote down the word "Tianjin". The people around him praised it again and again.

------

From Tianjin to Niuzhuang, although the course is very close, and for Zhu Yuanzhang's safety. It's still sticking to the coastline. But it will still be a few days.

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly called Li Shanchang over. Then the screen retreats left and right.

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Mr. Li, do you want to die? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's patience has reached its limit. At this moment, I will spread everything out.

Li Shanchang said: "Your Majesty, the old minister doesn't know what Your Majesty means? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "When I met Mr. for the first time in Dingyuan County, I knew that Mr. was Wang Zuozhicai. Now I still don't regret my decision today, please go out of the mountain. Will Mr. assist me Lao Zhu now? ”

Li Shanchang's eyes were confused for a moment, as if he remembered all the things before. He and Zhu Yuanzhang also had a time like a fish in water. At that time, the monarch and the minister got along. It's not what it is today.

Li Shanchang said: "The old minister has no regrets. His Majesty is the Lord of the Heavens. Although the old minister is conceited of his talent in the world. But there are so many talents in the world. Zhang Shicheng, Chen Youliang. Even in the Yuan court, with such a great talent as the minister, not to mention, there are more than a dozen. But how many ministers can be in this position? There is no Your Majesty, not to mention whether the old minister can survive in the troubled times. But even if they survived. There will be no high position today. It's not regretting. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "That sir, why is this? You and I can't finish well. At this time, you will lose your temper with me? Don't you know that I have endured it for a long time, and when I was young, your Li family was full of doors, and there were no chickens and dogs left. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's face sank like water at this moment. Don't be angry, but mighty. The invisible pressure was transmitted to Li Shanchang.

If it's someone else. I've been scared for a long time. But Li Shanchang and Zhu Yuanzhang have been friends and enemies for so many years. Both are all too familiar. This little trick is not enough to scare Li Shanchang at all.

Li Shanchang said: "Your Majesty, start and finish, why don't you want to start and end well with the old minister, once you abandon it, and live idle for 20 years." Now you come to tell the old minister that the beginning is good and the end is good? Not too ridiculous. And Your Majesty, you have to understand one thing, I, Li Shanchang, am over eighty years old, and now I am out of breath after walking a few more steps. I was dizzy when I read two lines, so I could only ask the scholar to read it to me. I always recognize the wrong person. The years are merciless. Now the old minister is just a waste man, just waiting to die. Nothing can be done. But why do so many people hold the sign of Lao Chen? ”

"Kill or not kill the old minister? It doesn't matter. Now that the minister is dead, he is dead. At my age, it doesn't matter if I live two more years or two years less. But why do so many people borrow the plaque of Lao Chen to fight against His Majesty, this is what His Majesty has to think about. ”

Li Shanchang deserves to be Li Shanchang. All of a sudden, to the point.

Li Shanchang's connections are all over the world. Naturally, there are reasons why he deliberately operates. But people go to tea and cool, not to mention that Li Shanchang has been gone for 20 years, and the cronies and subordinates he promoted back then, Hu Weiyong and others have been a little disobedient for a long time. What's more, over the years, the court has been repeatedly purged. How many connections can Li Shanchang leave?

Li Shanchang humbly said that he could not do anything. That, of course, is a lie. But if it weren't for so many people gathered around Li Shanchang. It is impossible for Li Shanchang to have such a big momentum?

Why did such a thing happen. Naturally, Zhu Yuanzhang has a lot of things that are unpopular. Under Zhu Yuanzhang's high-pressure policy, there has always been an undercurrent. It's just that Li Shanchang is in collusion with these people.

Even this undercurrent can hardly be said to be one person, or a group of people.

Zhu Yuanzhang also knows that killing people will not solve the problem. At best, the problem can be suppressed. This is also why Zhu Yuanzhang was so ruthless to the civil officials, but in the end he passed the position to Zhu Yunwen. It's not that he doesn't know what kind of person Zhu Yunwen is. Rather, it is a compromise with the entire civil service.

This is no longer the case.

Ideas are not afraid of bullets, and only thoughts are victorious over them.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care about any of this at all. said: "You don't need to worry about this matter. I'll give you another chance. All you have to do is promise to go to Ningbo to recuperate. From then on, he didn't ask about the court. I'll let you go. This is also the last gentleman's affection. ”

"You've figured it out."

Li Shanchang pondered for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, as the prince of the Ming Dynasty, how can the minister not think about the court and forgive his fate. ”
