"There is no problem with the lower officials, if they don't want to, what if they make trouble?"

"It's okay, tell you to wait, that's to wait, just wait."

Forehead~

Sure enough, it was just a wait, and it didn't take long for Tie Niu to come with a group of big men.

Wang Peng suddenly realized at this time, and only then did he understand what Zheng Xiong meant.

Naturally, there is the repression of this group of people.

No matter how unwilling you are, you can only leave.

No way, I can't beat it!

Anyway, Zheng Xiong didn't do it, and the severance pay was somewhat comforting.

With this money, it should be worry-free for more than a month, but there is no iron rice bowl and I have to look for a job.

After the others left, Zheng Xiong gathered this group of people and prepared to give a lecture.

"You are from a building background, and you have no experience, so it stands to reason that you should not be transferred here."

"But since you have been transferred, you must have your strengths."

"Here, ability is not important, you can learn slowly the day after tomorrow, the only requirement is loyalty, to be loyal to the government, to the government's orders."

"Don't be like your predecessors, who can't distinguish between priorities and priorities."

"So they're gone, and you're coming."

"Wang'er and others remember the mistakes of their predecessors in order to wake up themselves."

"We keep in mind the teachings of the Hou Ye."

The echo rang in my ears.

Full of neutrality.

"Okay, that's enough for you."

"This government is not a stingy person."

"How much do you get paid in Yijian, it's still the same here."

"And every time you complete something assigned by the government, you can get additional remuneration."

"The back is all information, and it will be changed later"

In the sixth year of Hongwu (1373), Li Wenzhong led his army to the border of Beiping and Shanxi, and defeated the enemy army at Triangle Village. In 1374 (the seventh year of Hongwu), the dispatch department will be sent out of the Sai. Arrived at Sanbula River and captured Pingzhang Chen Anli. Arrive at Shunning and Yangmen, and behead the pearl donkey. Arrived at Baideng, and captured the captain without flowers. In the autumn of this year, Li Wenzhong led his army to attack Daning and Gaozhou, conquered the two places, killed the king of Zong, Duoduo lost Li, and captured the hundred slaves of Chengzhi. Chased to Felt Hat Mountain, killed King Lu, captured his concubine and Situ Dahai, etc. Then he marched into Fengzhou, captured 12 old officials of the Yuan Dynasty, and there were many horses, camels, cattle and sheep, and chased them until Baigan'er returned. Since then, Li Wenzhong has repeatedly led his troops to defend the border.

In the tenth year of Hongwu (1377), Li Wenzhong was ordered to discuss important military affairs with Li Shanchang, the prince of Korea. In 1379 (the twelfth year of Hongwu), the eighteen tribes of Taozhou rebelled, Li Wenzhong and Xiping Hou Muying joined forces to pacify it, and built the city in Nanchuan, Donglong Mountain, and set up Taozhou Wei. After returning to the court, Li Wenzhong reported that the water in the city of Xi'an contained salty brine and was undrinkable, and asked to dig the land to divert water from the Longshou Canal into the city so that it could get water, and Zhu Yuanzhang adopted his suggestion. Li Wenzhong was in charge of the Metropolitan Governor's Office and was also the supervisor of the country.

Died of illness

In the winter of the sixteenth year of Hongwu (1383), Li Wenzhong fell ill. Taizu came to visit in person and ordered Huai'an Hou Huazhong to be in charge of healing. In 1384 (the seventeenth year of Hongwu), in the third lunar month, Li Wenzhong died at the age of forty-six. Suspecting that Huazhong was poisoned, Taizu demoted Huazhong's title and banished his family to Jianchangwei, where other doctors, wives and children were beheaded. Taizu personally wrote a tribute and posthumously named Li Wenzhong as the king of Qiyang, nicknamed Wujing. Worthy of enjoying the Taimiao, the portrait is hung in the Temple of Meritorious Heroes, ranking third.

Character evaluation

Zhang Tingyu: Wenzhong's instrument is heavy and macro, and people are unpredictable. It is fierce and vigorous, and it is stronger when it encounters a great enemy. He is quite knowledgeable, often teachers Jinhua Fan Zugan and Hu Han, who are well versed in the scriptures and righteousness, and are quite impressive for poetry.

Gu Yingtai: If Xu Zhongshan's loyalty is flawless, Li Qiyang's studious action, Tang Xingong's obedience to orders, Mu Xiping's residence is noble and not arrogant, and they all climb dragon scales and are meritorious, and they are all tiger-tailed but not arrogant. Alack! Fight with the people who are finished and scattered.

The Cambridge History of the Ming Dynasty in China: Li Wenzhong, the nephew of Emperor Hongwu, was the only person with some knowledge among the emperor's close relatives, but from a very early age, he was somewhat uncertain about his uncle's loyalty. However, the emperor still placed him in a very important position. He was a very talented administrator. After the initial stability of the Ming Dynasty regime, in the following year (1380) when Li Wenzhong was in charge of the Dadu Governor's Office, Zhu Yuanzhang executed Prime Minister Hu Weiyong on charges of abusing power and plotting treason, and deliberately expanded the case, so that as many as 10,000 people were implicated. At this time, everyone inside and outside the court was in danger, and the day was precarious.

Li Wenzhong was deeply disturbed by these practices of Ming Taizu. He himself has played two recitals, one is to advise Ming Taizu not to send troops to conscript Japan; The second was to advise Ming Taizu not to rely too much on eunuchs in handling important political affairs, and to criticize Ming Taizu for executing officials and handling other matters.

These two pieces were put on the shelf and ignored, but they did not annoy Zhu Yuanzhang. Li Wenzhong saw Zhu Yuanzhang slaughtering meritorious heroes, and he was worried that he would lose the hearts of the people, lose the vitality of the country, and endanger the regime. He was determined to risk his life for the third time.

That night, Li Wenzhong couldn't sleep well all night, he wrote a good piece of music and sat down to wait for the court. Before leaving, he asked his wife to train the children well, and when he became an adult, he contributed to the country before he cried goodbye to his wife. Li Wenzhong went to court and handed over the recital. Ming Taizu opened the chapter, and when he read: "Traitors and thieves will be punished without mercy, but they will exercise and slander, kill innocents indiscriminately, make people feel uncomfortable, and hurt the vitality of the country." Before I finished reading it, my complexion changed early. I saw that he suddenly left his seat, pointing at Wen Zhong and scolding angrily: "The kid is bold and talking nonsense. What do I have to do with you if I cut off rebellion?" Throw down the music while throwing it. Wen Zhong was not afraid, and replied loudly: "Your Majesty has killed all the heroes and generals, once there is a police on the frontier, or there is a rebellion in the border, who will serve the country at that time?" May Your Majesty think twice. Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily: "Li Wenzhong, aren't you afraid of death?" I will fulfill you, kill you together, and see who dares to come and tremble again. Wen Zhong protested: "It is not a pity for Wen Zhong to die, may Your Majesty think more about the people of the country." Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the samurai to take Wen Zhong to prison.

Li Wenzhong's exhortation and condemnation soon spread to the palace. Queen Ma was taken aback when she heard this. When Taizu returned to the palace, he saw Queen Ma sitting on the side, with two lines of tears on her face. He was very surprised when he saw it, and hurriedly asked, "What's upset about the queen?" The queen replied: "I heard that Your Majesty is going to behead Wenzhong, am I sorry for him?" His Majesty's family has dozens of relatives, all of whom have long since died, leaving only Wen Zhong. I heard that His Majesty was going to kill Wen Zhong, and the concubine was sad for him! Wen Zhong is the founding minister and your nephew, can't you spare his life?" With a few words, Ming Taizu was moved by compassion and did not feel tears. He pardoned Wen Zhong for his capital crimes, but stripped himself of his official position and was claustrophobic at home. said that His Majesty was going to kill Wen Zhong, and the concubine was sad for him! Wen Zhong is the founding minister and your nephew, can't you spare his life?" With a few words, Ming Taizu was moved by compassion and did not feel tears. He pardoned Wen Zhong for capital crimes, but works
