Chapter 764: The prince took the initiative to expose it, not wanting to take the heir
After King Wei said this, Zhang Mi thought about it carefully, and then said to King Wei:
"It's okay for Your Highness to think like this, after all, no matter what, as long as the imperial court is strong, we vassal states don't have to worry about weak people leading to weak people and then being destroyed."
As he spoke, Zhang Mi smiled and said: "It's that the minister is confused, and he habitually uses the governance ideas he learned in the ruling school to persuade His Highness how to govern the vassal country, and now it seems that this is also unrealistic." ”
"It's okay!"
"Changshi only needs to approve of Lone's current thoughts."
"Lone now does not want the domain to be strong, but only to be able to protect the foundation of the temple of my Wei clan here, which can be passed on to all generations, as long as it can be passed on to all generations, it doesn't matter if there is no strong military equipment, and even the matter of preventing foreign enemies can be handed over to the royal division of the imperial court, and this domain can contribute military funds for it."
King Wei said with a smile at this time.
And his meaning is very clear, that is, he only wants his palace to monopolize the agricultural, commercial, and industrial interests of the entire country, but he doesn't want to have the military power here.
Zhang Mi nodded: "His Royal Highness has far-reaching intentions, and he can't do it!" ”
Then, Zhang Mi said: "In this case, in the opinion of foolish ministers, it is better to resume the reinstatement of conscription in the domain, so as to reduce the financial expenditure of the vassal as much as possible." ”
"In addition, it is also clearly informed to the locals that the reason why the old system is used is because the indoctrination area is different from the country, and it needs to go through a period of governance of the old rites first, and it cannot be the same as Middle-earth all at once."
"Very good!"
King Wei nodded, agreed with Zhang Mi's proposal, and said: "However, the Han and the gentry of the clan should be exempted, after all, there is a difference between the noble and the low, not to mention, if the Han and the gentry of the clan are offended, there will be no one to replace the lonely herdsmen." ”
Zhang Mi said yes.
As a result, the defense of the country then almost completely restored the system of the early Ming Dynasty, set up road guides, fabricated all kinds of household registration, the people were not allowed to leave their places of residence at will, they could only read the four books and five classics, and the imperial examination only tested the four books and five classics and Cheng Zhu Zhixue, and all ordinary Japanese people also had to serve in the levy service, and the other was to set up a sea ban, and private ships were not allowed to go to sea.
It's just that unlike the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Weiguo has no business status, because Weiwangfu wants to monopolize all the commercial interests of Weiguo.
After all, Wei Guo is not big, so Wei Wang can monopolize the business interests of Wei Guo, not to mention, as a son of the Ming Imperial Family, he naturally monopolizes the commercial goods from the Ming Central Empire.
And the Japanese civilians now only want a peaceful world, unlike before, they are suffering from war almost every day, so they are willing to be ruled by King Wei like this.
Who made the current Wei Guotian less many?
Therefore, these Japanese people will be allocated land, as long as they are diligent, pay taxes and serve, it is no problem to ensure that they do not starve to death, even if they encounter famine years and disaster years, they can also go to work as miners to make ends meet, or defect to the Han people or the Chinese Japanese gentry as slaves, or defect to the palace as official slaves, and be sold to Middle Earth by the palace.
However, only the best-looking or physically best young widows will be bought by the royal palace and sold to Middle-earth, because it is much better to be a slave in Middle-earth than to be a slave in the indoctrination.
In short, most of the Japanese people who are in Weiguo, whether they can survive or can't, are creating wealth for Weiwangfu.
As a result, the Weiwang Mansion was very wealthy, and a large amount of grain and commercial profits were obtained every year.
And the feudal kings who were sealed overseas were basically the same as the defense of the country.
They colluded with the Han Chinese and the Japanese gentry, and almost completely copied the system at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, that is, to lock the people to the land as much as possible and grow grain for themselves to serve.
At the same time, they will also give ordinary Japanese people a little hope to cross the class, but if ordinary Japanese want to cross the class successfully, they must first have a very deep understanding of the knowledge of "preserving heavenly principles and destroying people's desires", so profound that they only know how to follow the old ways.
This kind of ruling model is a backward model for the current Ming Empire, but for the overseas regions at this time, it is a very advanced model, and it is a model that is very suitable for their agricultural development.
Because after all, this model is a system that emerged after the development of thousands of years of agricultural civilization in the Middle Earth of the Ming Dynasty, and it is a very mature and advanced system in the agricultural civilization, so after being transplanted to these agricultural areas, there is no situation of water and soil adaptation, and it is even very conducive to the recovery of local productivity, just as this system is also conducive to the recovery of productivity at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty.
After all, there is no real good or bad system, only suitable and inappropriate.
You must know that in the original history, after Tokugawa Ieyasu unified the Japanese state and began to govern the Japanese state, he also used to promote Cheng Zhu Lixue, and also improved the agricultural system and strengthened closed management.
……
Capital.
It's the annual Huangming Fair again.
There are more goods on display at this fair, and there are more people.
"Master Zhang, don't go ahead, there are more and more people watching the expo every year, especially in the area of this Yudai Bridge, which is often the most crowded."
"We don't need to join in the excitement, we just need to see what is fresh and fresh, just let your people see it."
Before the opening of the expo, Zhang Mi, the chief historian of King Wei, returned to Middle-earth, and because of the second prince Zhu Changhui, who was in Beijing before, he came to the expo with the second prince on the day of the expo.
And the second prince was disgusted with the large number of people who came to the expo, especially in the area of Yudai Bridge, so he did not let Zhang Mi go to the area of Yudai Bridge, and said so to Zhang Mi.
Zhang Mi nodded after hearing this, and then followed the second prince to another place, and said:
"Your Highness, it's better to ask for an order to go overseas as soon as possible, in your own vassal country, you don't need to watch this expo with these small people, you can only open an exposition that only princes and nobles can attend, and now His Royal Highness King Wei and His Royal Highness King Yi are doing this in their own vassal country."
"I want to too!"
"But isn't it the queen mother's birthday next year, so I want to ask for a decree after next year."
After the second prince said this, he asked Zhang Mi: "But master, is it really that good overseas?" ”
"I can't guarantee anything else, but the second prince, your domain must be a good place."
"Because according to the strategy predetermined by the imperial court, most of His Majesty's sons and daughters have to be in the Kyoto area of the Wa Kingdom, in order to set up some feudal states close to the Son of Heaven between the religious area directly under the imperial court and the feudal states of other branch clans, so that if there is a distant domain to become bigger and there is a move that is not subordinate, there can be a buffer between the religious area and the distant domain."
"And Your Highness doesn't have to worry about this kind of rebellion in one or two hundred years, because now the distant vassals are all guarding the inside and outside, and none of them dare to be privately strong, and they all pin their trust on the imperial court to protect the country, of course, they are also afraid that the imperial court will really be wary of them, and they are only thinking about how to better collect wealth for the people."
Zhang Mi spoke.
After hearing this, the second prince nodded: "I saw it, several imperial uncles and uncles have been a lot more generous after going out." ”
Then, the second prince looked at Zhang Mi again: "I heard that they are all living a real emperor-like life?" Life and death are all in one thought, and those who follow me prosper and those who disobey me die? ”
"This is true for the natives, as long as it is not like this for the Han people."
"However, there are few Han Chinese in the vassal country."
Zhang Mi said.
The second prince nodded, and then said, "This is also very exciting, it is indeed stronger than being in Middle-earth now." ”
"Now in Middle-earth, even if you are the lord of the world, it is estimated that you will be limited in what you can do in the future, and you will not be so happy to be the lord of the world!"
"After all, since my father opened the wisdom of the people in Middle-earth, there are too many Han people in the world who have read books! In particular, there are almost no military households of the younger generation who do not read and do not know how to count, so that there are too many people who hold different views, and it is difficult to win over all the people who read to support them. ”
When the second prince said this, he smiled and said: "So, this middle-earth, which is more difficult to manage, will be handed over to the eldest brother, he is the eldest son, and there is no one more suitable to suffer from this burden than him." ”
"And myself, I just want to go to the domain!"
"Managing a vassal country with fewer overseas Han people and more people will undoubtedly be easier to manage, more worry-free and more comfortable, even if there is something that you don't deal with, you can kill it, so you can't solve the problem, but you can also solve the person who caused the problem."
The second prince obviously also wanted to be comfortable and didn't want to worry too much, so he said so at this time.
Zhang Mi didn't say anything after hearing this.
Not only the second prince, but the third prince here is also affected by the current situation that being an emperor at home has not yet been a powerful vassal king outside, and it is better to enslave the people under his rule, and he just wants to go out.
Therefore, on this day, the third prince also took the initiative to hand over to the emperor the names of several scholars who secretly instigated him to participate in the seizure of the heir, as well as the evidence of the crime against him.
"Father, the sons don't want to fight for the country, they have to persuade the sons and daughters to fight!"
"He also said that Erchen is the second son, and he is very promising, as long as the eldest brother is gone, he will only be Erchen."
"Erchen is really angry, so he came to expose it to his father, ask his father to punish them, and then ask his father to let his son defend the country as soon as possible, Erchen really can't stand these despicable people who are afraid that our brothers will be too harmonious, so they want to be loyal to the country as soon as possible!"
After the third prince Zhu Changyuan said to Zhu Yijun, he bowed to Zhu Yijun: "Please fulfill your father!" ”
