Before the Western Zhou Dynasty, the forest coverage rate of the Yellow River Basin exceeded 53%, and even reached 65%, the world's largest tropical rainforest, the forest coverage rate of the Amazon tropical rainforest was 58%, and the Central Plains at that time, from temperature to climate, were no different from the current Yunnan, running full of elephants, hippos and crocodiles.

Zhou Tianzi's division of the feud is to give a promise to the princes, a team of soldiers and horses, the princes lead this team of people, control the traffic arteries, build cities, cut down trees and cultivate fields, this is the background of the sub-feudal system.

The typical example of the Ming Dynasty's feudal system has never been the palaces of various places, especially after Hongwu, after Jianwen cut the domain, Yan Wang Jingnan, and Yongle Domain, the feudal kings who were divided into feudal domains but not tin soil, and the feudal kings who were listed but not the people, the feudal princes who had no administrative power, and even the royal palaces needed to be approved by the imperial court.

The typical example of the Ming Dynasty feudal system is the Qianguo Mansion, which guards the southwest.

But the Duke of Qianguo still has no administrative power, and the Ming Dynasty has a perfect governor, governor, three divisions, and official offices of Fuzhou County in Yunnan, so it still follows the basic principle of the Ming Dynasty's feudal system.

Defeating the battle, commanding, and killing thousands of households is not a shameful thing, Qi Jiguang always said to the emperor that victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers.

Chengping has not fought in the southwest for a long time for many years, and it is normal for some problems to occur, as long as they can be corrected in time, it is enough, and the prevention of seedlings is insufficient, so the Han army will be used, and the Sichuan general soldier Liu Wei has led the troops into Yunnan, and the situation has improved.

Zhu Yijun is still relatively optimistic about the war situation in the southwest, and for Akbar in the Mughal Kingdom, Zhu Yijun hopes that Akbar the Great is worthy of his name as the Great Emperor, and that he will not make a wrong choice.

Shahmamat didn't know the emperor's worries, otherwise he would have told His Majesty the Emperor: The respected Akbar Emperor is a normal person, not the kind of person who lacks roots in his brain in Mangying, and has a face with the Ming Dynasty, can he still do business? Akbar now just wants to sell cotton to Daming, get Daming's massive, cheap, high-quality cotton cloth, and then act as a middleman, selling cotton cloth everywhere.

Zhu Yijun, Zhang Juzheng, and Wang Chonggu finally made the decision to take a second look at the situation in the southwest, and observed that if they really failed to catch it, they would be sent to Beijing to follow the example of the three expeditions to Luchuan, and it would really become a rotten sore, and they would use a sharp blade.

It's just that in that case, the price is a bit big.

"Since 110 years ago, after the Onin Rebellion, the Wa Kingdom entered the Warring States Daimyo Era, in the hands of Oda Nobunaga, there is finally a trend to end the chaotic war, for the Wa people, Oda Nobunaga is not an Owari big fool, nor a demon king, but a hero-like figure, in order to end the civil strife of the Wa Kingdom, Oda Nobunaga gave up the previous idea of the world, and chose to compromise with the Ming Dynasty." Zhu Yijun said with feeling.

Oda Nobunaga wanted to kneel, but Daming didn't necessarily want to accept the dog.

"Oda Nobunaga, through the Nagasaki Governor's Palace, hopes to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty, and Oda Nobunaga hopes to obtain the canonization of the Ming Dynasty." Zhu Yijun talked about the purpose of the Nagasaki Governor's Palace, Oda Nobuo first went to the Nagasaki Governor's Palace to negotiate, and after the negotiation failed, Oda Nobunaga sent an envoy to Nagasaki and asked the Governor of Nagasaki to send Oda Nobunaga the idea of being willing to bow down to the courtiers.

"Princess Yingjia Zhu Xuanchang and the concubine Duwei Yin Zongxin want to take their newborn child to Beijing Province, but I plan to refuse, the child is so small, the sea is bumpy, there is no need to toss back and forth." Zhu Yijun talked about another thing that Yin Zhengmao did in the song, Princess Yingjia and Duwei had a son, who had been born for three months, and originally planned to go back to Beijing to take a look, but the child was too young, Zhu Yijun was afraid that something would happen, and he would talk about it when he grew up.

The Ming Dynasty canonized the governor of Luzon during the Yongle period, Xu Chailao, and later under the general trend of Xingwen Kuangwu and the forbidden sea, only an inscription remained.

"The minister never thought that the daimyo of the Japanese kingdom would be able to receive the annual payment to the point of eight dukes and two people, and he would also collect seigniorage." Zhang Juzheng also said sincerely, these Warring States Daimyo of the Japanese Kingdom, and the sages and gentry of the Ming Dynasty, the more they look at it, the more they look at it, the more they do not reduce the rent, which leads to the catastrophe of destroying the door, and the other is that the tithe tax is not satisfied, and the seigniorage tax is to be collected.

There are still a few reckless people who don't know what to call in Mangyingli, and Oda Nobunaga chose to admit defeat under heavy pressure.

"There is no room for reconciliation." Zhu Yijun and Shoufu and Cifu finalized the result of this matter, there is no possibility of reconciliation, the Ming Dynasty to everyone on the Japanese side, about Xu Wei and Sun Keyi, would rather light the Nagasaki powder magazine, the jade is burned, but also the Ming Dynasty intervenes by force, for the current Ming Dynasty, reconciliation with the Japanese State is as outrageous as Zhao Gou killing Yue Fei and negotiating.

When the soil is being reclaimed and returned.

There should not be too many means in the past dynasties, and there should not be too many examples.

In Yin Zhengmao's view, this is a matter of course, the Qianguo Mansion and the Yunnan Governor, operating for two hundred years, although occasionally pulling hair, but on the whole, it is a stable southwest border, a stable hereditary replacement.

"Only then did I know that when I go to Jilong Island now, I will go to Ryukyu first, and go south from Maobitou to Tamsui Town and Xinglongzhuang, instead of crossing the strait between Fujian and Jilongzhuang, and the boatmaster is indeed an indispensable talent." Zhu Yijun looked at Kan Yutu and said stunned.

This is a successful experience, it is a path dependence, the Qianguo Mansion and the Ming Dynasty are on the same holiday, and the hereditary replacement.

Nagasaki Governor's Mansion Xu Wei, Sun Keyi and others are controlling the flow rate of treasure money, and the speed of the Nagasaki Governor's Mansion to the Japanese silver, Japanese slaves, and wandering girls is not unlimited, so the 10,000 treasure money sent by Zhu Yijun to the Japanese State can be used for a long, long time, but for this kind of control, the Warring States daimyo are generally dissatisfied! Seigniorage is a bit like the Three Treasures of Fulu, and it's hard to quit if you get it.

How can a king be so good without a stable military, political, military, and economic system? If you don't take the stable route opened up by the Qianguo Mansion and the blue wisps of the road to open up the mountains and forests, you have to deviate from the imperial court?

Yin Zhengmao's biggest hope is that one day, the governor of Luzon will impeach the Marquis of Surabaya for merging too much, and the hereditary Luzon Marquis Mansion will tear his hair with the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty for the sake of the land.

Daming's methods were so brutal and ruthless that Oda Nobunaga was a little overwhelmed.

Look at those kings, who lost their heads because of a piece of cowhide, who were empty, who usurped the throne, who died in civil unrest, who died in civil unrest, the kings of Annam, Siam, Luzon, Boni, Java, Mangara, Ceylon, Wa, etc., how can you describe it as a mess?

Zhang Juzheng Wang Chonggu stood up and chose to retire, the most important thing to enter the palace today is that there are divisions at all levels to hear about major events, to analyze the contradictions, not a dry sentence, "Guanzi Ming Law" said: The next situation is not through, it is called a stopper.

Ashikaga Yoshiaki, is the king of the Wa Kingdom canonized during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, in order to intervene in the Wa Kingdom, the flag of Ashikaga Yoshiaki still has to be used, and it can be accepted that Ashikaga Yoshiaki stays in the Ming Dynasty, that is because Ashikaga Yoshiaki no longer has the strength to continue to be the king of the Wa Kingdom, it is a big (borrowed) Yoshiaki (mouth), anyway, the final result must be the heir.

The journey is tiring, and the children can't bear it.

"The opinion of the minister and Wang Cifu is the same, whether he surrenders or not, it will not affect the advancement of the Ming Dynasty's decree." Zhang Juzheng and Wang Chonggu have completely the same attitude on this matter, do not accept surrender, and cannot read back.

Hereditary replacement, the top of the hereditary official, this is what Yin Zhengmao wants, as a king himself, how can he have his back against a big tree to enjoy the shade?

Zhang Juzheng always thinks from a political point of view, and is a ruthless political machine.

Stability, hereditary replacement, in the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty, is a kind of habit for the hereditary official class, but for the overseas governor's office, it is a luxury.

"Since the last time the surname Zhengmao said that the Ming Dynasty would collect taxes, the Luzon Governor's Office began to set up yamen such as Fuzhou and counties, which made a good start, and there was no shortage of officials in Luzon." Zhu Yijun talked about the follow-up of Yin Zhengmao's request to Daming to collect taxes.

After Luzon gradually settled down, Yin Zhengmao of course wanted to further transform Luzon.

August 15 is the Mid-Autumn Festival, but also the day of the Dragon launch, when Lin Fucheng returned to Beijing, it was already August 23, August 26, the Dragon has completed the first sea survey, the fast sailing ship departed from Songjiang New Port, it took only one day to arrive at the Ryukyus, and then it took less than five days to circle around the Jilong Island, after the Penghu Inspection Division replenished, returned to the Ryukyus, and returned to the Ming Dynasty again.

There is no shortage of officials, because of the development of navigation technology, so that going to Luzon is no longer an adventure, but also because Luzon has gradually stabilized, making it easier to go to Luzon to serve as an official.

"Your Majesty is holy and has a loving heart." Zhang Juzheng did not have the idea of opposition, entering Beijing Province to visit relatives, returning home to visit his parents and respecting relatives, it is a political means, there is no gap between the Ming Dynasty and the Luzon Governor's Palace, if there is a problem, you can enter Beijing Province to explain the situation.

Reconcile with the Japanese state, but there is no way to explain it to the people? There is also Fengguo Gong Qi Jiguang, how can he face this matter after a lifetime?

"The conditions are still good, but there is no need to accept his surrender." Wang Chonggu said with certainty: "The southeast coast has been plagued by Japanese plagues for decades, and the lives have been devastated. ”

Zhu Yijun looked at the Song Shu from the Nagasaki Governor's Palace, and said with a little mockery: "These big names are really greedy and insatiable. ”

Oda Nobunaga is indeed a character, and he is a rare person in the Wa Kingdom, but it is useless, and the Ming Dynasty will implement his plan to exterminate the Wa in an orderly manner.

The governor of Songjiang, Shen Shixing, reported the good news of the first sea survey of the fast sailing ship to the Imperial Palace.

"Oda Nobunaga was willing to bow down and be canonized by the Ming Dynasty; pay 300,000 taels of silver per year; Accept the issuance of Daming treasure banknotes in the Wa Kingdom; opening of the ports of the Japanese state; Oda Nobunaga promised to implement a tax system of one public and two people, to settle the common people and reduce the number of Japanese pirates; Cooperate with the Ming fleet to fight against the Japanese invaders. Zhu Yijun handed the song to Zhang Juzheng.

Zhu Yijun also wondered before, knowing that Antonio was an opponent, why did Felipe II appoint Antonio as the captain and let him come to Daming with a galleon, and Felipe II didn't want to, isn't it useless? Now Felipe II's galleons also rely on the guidance of Marcus.

Political, military and economic aspects of the Ming Dynasty to accept the strong restraints, only ask the Ming Emperor to be merciful, do not over-issue treasure money, the country is already erosive, now is the key time to end the war, the Ming Emperor this mix, the country is full of devastation.

If the Ming Dynasty canonized another Oda Nobunaga who had the strength to be the king, it would represent the reconciliation between the Ming Dynasty and the Wa Kingdom.

Zhang Juzheng finished reading it and handed it to Wang Chonggu.

In this maritime trade, there are no experienced captains and pilots, and the great voyage is to fly General Li Guangjin into the grassland, dizzy.

The Taiwan Strait is called the big black ditch in the Fujian population, it is very difficult to cross this big black ditch, now the route to the chicken cage island, there are two in total, one is from Xingang, Ningbo Shuangyu to the Ryukyus and then south to the cat's nose, which is the north end of the chicken cage island, because it is named like the cat's nose; The other route is from Yuegang to Penghu Inspection Division, and then to Xinglongzhuang (now Kaohsiung), both of which are to avoid the complex currents of Daheigou.

That is to say, starting from the coast of the Ming Dynasty, it is easier to go to the South Seas, rather than to go to the chicken cage island, which is why the chicken cage this big island, so many years have not been large-scale development, since the Ryukyu palace moved inward, the Ming naval division garrisoned the Ryukyus, the development process of the chicken cage island, greatly accelerated.

Whoever controls the Ryukyus controls the island of Jilongjima.

Ryukyu, Yu Dayou, and Chen Lu all say that it is the key to the Ming Sea Frontier, and this is indeed the sea beam of all countries.

There is a boat from Ningbo Shuangyu to Tamsui Town to buy and sell timber, because you can't invite a boatman, you can only venture out to sea, planning to go straight to Tamsui Town from Shuangyu, but you have walked for a few days, and when you see the shore again, you have arrived in Qiongzhou...

The boat master is a very professional talent, they are not allowed to expand the imperial court, and they want to be treated, even the Ming Emperor endured it, talked about the conditions with the boat masters, explained the details of the expansion, and Shen Shixing and the boat masters of the conversation, is also gradually fulfilled, the Ming sea trade is gradually prosperous, the demand for the boat master is increasing.

Now it's the ship and the others, and the major maritime merchants have also reacted, throwing money at each maritime academy, for fear that the maritime academy will be closed due to insufficient funds, and no one will use it.

"Isn't it enough that five city divisions have built five maritime academies?" Zhu Yijun scratched his head a little, the development of the sea to the present, the growth rate of talents, can not keep up with the speed of the expansion of the sea trade, the big maritime merchants now come to their senses, began to clamoring for the establishment of some more maritime schools.

Feng Bao said in a low voice: "Not only the boat master, but also the earth master who seeks ore, the silversmith who ties silver coins, and the master master from all walks of life are all lacking. ”

Is there only a shortage of boatmen? It is all walks of life, and there is a lack of talent.

Because of the greater influence, the boat master is more intuitive, but the other gaps are actually very, very large, and the systematic cultivation of talents has become a top priority for the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yijun thought for a while and said: "It is imminent to divide the discipline into schools. ”

It is easy to say that the study is divided into disciplines, but the resistance of the traditional scholars and doctors of the Ming Dynasty is also a problem that the imperial court must consider.

But there is also a problem involved, reading Confucianism can be an official, this is a fixed promotion channel for reading to become a master, and the scholars of the Ming Dynasty are also not willing to learn other subjects.

Therefore, only the poor coolies learn this, and these poor coolies have no money to study, and the Ming Dynasty needs to invest heavily in education in order to achieve results.

Ten years of trees, a hundred years of people, education is a long-term investment, short-term returns are uncertain, long-term benefits will be intuitively reflected.

Problems such as organizational structure, development, funding, scale, directionality, number of enrollments, number and quality of faculty and staff sources, etc., are all problems to be solved by dividing the discipline into disciplines.

Zhu Yijun wrote these things down on paper in turn.

The main contradiction is the lack of professional talents in the Ming Dynasty and the monopoly of scholars and doctors, and the secondary contradiction is the lack of recognition of students for professional colleges and the need for a large number of students to enroll students.

In terms of organizational structure, it is definitely necessary to break away from the original system of Guozijian, Taixue, and Gongyuan, which will cause fierce contradictions and conflicts; The direction of development is mainly based on professional talents, rather than training officials, which leads to secondary contradictions;

In terms of funds, it is not a problem, there are large sums of money in the domestic treasury, and the maritime academy also has the experience of interest-free student loans;

In terms of faculty and staff, the Royal Academy of Martial Arts can provide some faculty members, masters from all walks of life, who can become faculty members, and there is no need to worry about the quantity and quality of sources; The three-level academy of the engineer regiment battalion can provide students, and the employment of the directional academy is not lacking in direction.

Zhu Yijun wrote the plan on the memo, he put down the pen, copied his plan, and finally lifted the Zhu pen and solemnly put it down: [Royal Institute of Technology].

In the name of the royal family, it is natural to fund the internal funds, which is to reduce the resistance of the court, whether it is to break away from the original education system, or to challenge the monopoly of scholars on knowledge, the imperial power is a sharp weapon, and the name of science and technology is distinguished from Confucianism, which is extremely disgusted with machinery and thinks that it is speculation.

The Master said: Those who have machines must have organic things, and those who have organic things must have organic hearts. If the heart is stored in the chest, it will be pure white and unprepared, and if it is not pure white, it will be uncertain, and if God is uncertain, the Tao will not carry it.

"Next Chapter, Cabinet Rites." Zhu Yijun handed the written edict in his hand to Feng Bao and asked Feng Bao to send it to the Cabinet and the Ministry of Rites.

The Royal Institute of Technology is a research institute, but also cultivates talents, but the threshold is extremely high, mainly responsible for exploring the boundaries of the known world, the infinite principle of all things, the Royal Institute of Technology, mainly to cultivate talents from all walks of life, from the best of the best, to become a doctor of the Five Classics.

Divided into disciplines, Royal Institute of Technology, when Zhang Juzheng saw these words, he immediately covered them, and asked the Zhongshu people to call Wang Chonggu and Wan Shihe to Wenyuan Pavilion to discuss matters, and when they were not sure to do it, it was inconvenient for more people to know.

Wang Chonggu, Wan Shihe, Wang Guoguang and Zhang Juzheng are divided into four directions, and they are placed on the table in the middle, the temper in autumn is more cloudy and sunny than in summer, and the wind is often accompanied by rain suddenly, an autumn rain and a cold, Zhang Juzheng let people bring a few pieces of big clothes and drape them on their bodies.

"How's that good?" After everyone finished reading the edict, Zhang Juzheng took a deep breath and asked everyone's opinions.

Daming needs talents, and all industries are waiting to be fed, and it is imperative to divide disciplines into disciplines, but it is also easy to become the fuse of intensified contradictions.

Wang Chonggu, who was a radical, immediately said: "Your Majesty is extremely thoughtful, and all aspects have been considered, what else is there to say, just do it." ”

"The stakes are big, and I am afraid that the move of the country and society will be shaken." Wan Shihe expressed his attitude, this matter is really not as simple as imagined, and education is the foundation of moving the township and the gentry, and the powerful and right.

Why didn't Gaoyang He reduce rent in disaster years? The He clan has completely completed the merger, why is it still unwilling to give the people a way to live? For Ho, it is better for laborers, poor coolies, to have no land or even any means of production, because then the laborers will have no choice but to sell their labor to make a living.

It is the process of the alienation of labor into a commodity.

The reason why He dared to do this and was able to do this is because it has always been the case, the monopoly of knowledge, and then the monopoly of power, and the alienation of labor into commodities by the countrymen, gentry, and power, is the result, not the cause.

"It's okay, they're going to lie to themselves." Wang Chonggu shook his head and said: "You overestimate the courage of the township sages and gentry, how can so many people dare to take risks?" Just do it with confidence, it's not their turn to rebel. ”

"Can't it be their turn?" Zhang Juzheng frowned.

Wang Chonggu swore an oath, and said in a particularly confirmed tone: "At most, just two sentences, the more you have, the more afraid you are of losing, as long as you are not forced into a corner, there is a trace of living space, it is difficult to completely give up everything you have, and the manor, mulberry field, acre, long and short labor, and family wealth owned by Haoyou are their wealth and their shackles." ”

"The poor coolies have nothing and no shackles, so they will fall into the grass, loot the He family, and kill the He family, because they have nothing to lose."

"I'm from here, just listen to me about this, do it boldly! What else can you do besides being able to call twice? Weakness and compromise are deep-rooted, and if I want to say that if Taixue is included in the Royal Institute of Technology, there is no need to distinguish between them, and they can all be promoted to Jinshi and become officials. ”

Wang Chonggu is really very sure that he understands that he is powerful and right, he himself is powerful and right, and he has rich experience in anti-thieves, rebellion? But as long as there is a trace of living space, there will be no rebellion, those shackles will firmly restrain their ambitions, and they will also deceive themselves, the Ming court is for talents, the Ming Dynasty is better, so that they can earn more.

How can the Ming Dynasty have a stage for the rebellion of the right?

Deng Maoqi, Ye Zongliu's millions of people, etc., that are mud legs with nothing, can be huge, and there are princes who intend to take the path of Yan Wang Zhu Di to become the emperor, but now, because the Dao Ye is next to the big sect, the heirs are not prosperous, and the stage for the prince's rebellion has gradually disappeared.

"What you're saying is inexplicable, oh, all the money you earned so hard is to put shackles on yourself?" Wan Shihe looked at Wang Chonggu and felt that Wang Chonggu's logic was really weird!

Desperate struggle, in the end all are shackles, people's efforts are all to put shackles on themselves, this logic is not right at all.

"Uncle Zong, you are still the secretary of the Ministry of Rites." Wang Chonggu smiled and said, "Don't hide it from the great uncle, this is all from experience." ”

Anti-thief experience, not everyone has it, Wang Chonggu is no longer ashamed to talk about the fact that he was an anti-thief in the past, and the anti-thief experience will help him to help the country.

In life, who hasn't had a fork in the road? It is the most precious thing to have the opportunity to get lost and return, and Wang Chonggu seized it, he is the thief, and he is also loyal to the monarch and the country, and it is all him Wang Chonggu.

"It seems like that's the case." Zhang Juzheng's brows were twisted into pimples, and the experience of anti-thieves has become Wang Chonggu's unique advantage, who can reason with this.

Wang Chonggu said happily: "So, just do it boldly, leave the civil affairs to me, the engineering battalion needs to do the work of Dingjian, the Royal Institute of Technology and the Ten Kings City can be built together, and it will be built around the Beitucheng of Beidaying, Your Majesty will parade the military horses every day anyway, and you can go around if you have nothing to do." ”

"That's my opinion, you decide, I still have something to do."

Wang Chonggu stood up after speaking, his attitude had been expressed very clearly, he not only agreed with His Majesty's method, but also felt that His Majesty's steps were a little small and too conservative.

Wang Chonggu walked to the door, suddenly walked back, picked up the edict and read it carefully, sighed and said: "If Your Majesty is short of money, my old Wang family also has a little wealth, but in the name of the royal family, it will be over, it's a pity, it's a pity." ”

This time Wang Chonggu is really gone, Chonggu Chi Dao, Wang Chonggu will go to see the stele inscribed by His Majesty almost every seven days, Chi Dao has made him gain too much fame, he is particularly relieved every time he sees that stele , so, if it is not crowned with the name of the royal family, Wang Chonggu is eager to undertake it as a sole proprietorship, and when the time comes, it will be called Chonggu Institute of Technology, who can say that he is a minister!

Unfortunately, His Majesty is obviously very sensitive to power, and from the beginning of the edict, he was named royal.

"Wang Cifu is becoming more and more like Tan Sima at the beginning, and he is becoming more and more radical." Wang Guoguang frowned and looked at Wang Chonggu's back, and said meaningfully.

Wan Shihe could understand Wang Chonggu's mentality, he shook his head and said: "As I get older, I am more and more anxious about the name behind me, and I always feel that time is running out. ”

"Is it possible that this is also a double of Wang Chonggu? Doubling down on the implementation of the decree makes it impossible to enforce it. Zhang Juzheng said with some skepticism.

"Your Majesty said that Yuanfu is prejudiced against Wang Cifu, and it is really prejudice, if you really want to double it, you will not do it." Wan Shi and Lian waved their hands, and the iron horse dispute between Yuan Fu and Ji Fu had just come to an end under the mediation of the emperor, and this could not be a dispute anymore.

Zhang Juzheng's prejudice against Wang Chonggu is an unsolvable knot, just like His Majesty's vigilance against Wenchen, an unsolvable problem.

(End of chapter)
