I am the king of the dead

Chapter 548 The Kindness of Daming People
There is some truth to this statement, but it is not.

There are silver mines in Wa country, and there are a lot of them. The Confucian government has already set up camp in Shijian. I never forget the money shortage.

It’s not that Ming is not pioneering. It’s because Da Ming has acquired most of the areas that can be ruled stably, and some areas that cannot be ruled stably have also been occupied first. Due to the limited conditions, it is impossible to rule stably now, but that doesn’t mean it won’t be possible in the future. .

For example, in the Tang, Song and Yuan dynasties, places such as Sichuan, Tibet, and Miaojiang in Guizhou, which could not be effectively ruled, are now being reformed step by step.

The two post roads in Sichuan and Tibet are also proof.

During the reign of Hongwu, the Ganzang post road was built, and in the fifth year of Yongle, the Uszang post road in Yazhou began to be built. The two post roads set up 26 large water horse stations and nearly 70 small post stations.

This is also the reason why Zhu Qiyu asked Peng Sui to take the steles on the boat and buried them on various islands.

Therefore, the Ming Dynasty did not lose its pioneering spirit, and even for the sake of pioneering and stabilizing its rule, even the mighty Emperor Gao of the Ming Dynasty suffered a lot of grievances.

During the Hongwu period, the north-south division was so serious that it became a major case in the north-south list. At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, most of the northern land was lost. Since then, the division between the north and the south has become the norm in this land.

Zhu Yuanzhang could only pinch his nose and recognize Kublai Khan as a real person in the grassland. It was also based on political needs and territorial needs.

Zhu Qiyu didn't think Elena's words were correct, he could only say that there was no way to expand, and that Daming had stretched his hands and feet to the edge of being able to stabilize his rule.

"Actually, Hu Shangshu and Nikolaos should be chattered more to see if there is anything Ming can learn from Rome's colonial model." Zhu Qiyu looked at Xing'an and said.

The development pattern of the world is roughly the Roman colonial model, and the Central Plains dynasty. In the world, is it the king's subjects, the land of the land, or the king's land. Occupying a land and a city is a real territory for a land and a city.

Xing'an said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Hu Shangshu has been debating scriptures with Nikolaoz all day long, and these matters seem to have been discussed."

"It's just that Hu Shangshu is quite disdainful of this kind of bone-sucking ruling method. He often tells people: his way is short-sighted, there is no long-term governance, and there is no long-term peace."

Zhu Qiyu leaned on the wicker chair and said strangely: "The way is short-sighted, there is no long-term governance and there is no long-term peace. Hu Shangshu really hits the nail on the head."

Hu Wei is really a master of etiquette. These few short words fully explain the limitations of the development of the Roman model.

This path only focuses on immediate interests, and inhumanely governs and deprives the people of the colonies. In the end, fierce conflicts between the colonies and the suzerain country break out. It cannot be governed for a long time, let alone long-term stability.

For example, Scotland with the back garden of the British Empire.

Zhu Qiyu put forward a possibility and said: "The colony does not seek long-term peace and stability, but to make money. According to the debate between Hua and Barbarians, the barbarians must be different if they are not my race. Why should they be peaceful?"

Xing'an thought for a while and asked, "Your Majesty, is Guizhou also going to be a colony? We will exhaust the people of Guizhou until they are exhausted, and then throw them away like shoestrings."

"Liaodong, Sichuan-Tibet, Western Regions, Monan, Mobei, Jiaozhi, Champa, Qiongzhou?"

The places Xing'an asked about are all places where Daming is reforming the land and returning to the people. In Daming's words, this is called Wang Hua.

Zhu Qiyu immediately shook his head and said: "That must be impossible! That is my territory, and the people on it are all my subjects!"

"Even right now, my Master Wang is temporarily unable to go due to various reasons, but one day, I will go!"

"It's all mine!"

Xing'an continued to be busy with a smile on his face, and didn't speak anymore, His Majesty already understood completely.

Xing'an's question is asking His Majesty, can he accept the appearance of such a purgatory on earth under the Ming Dynasty?The emperor's answer is of course impossible.

This is the problem. In the eyes of His Majesty today, the Xuanwei Department of the Old Port is the emperor's back garden.

So here comes the problem, the emperor's desire to rule has no limit, so the colonial model is simply impossible for Ming.

In the political thinking of the Ming Dynasty or the Central Plains Dynasty, the core area must be held firmly in the hands. The Three Kingdoms, the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and the Southern Song Dynasty, in traditional values, are not regarded as unified dynasties and must be cast aside.

As for the frontier areas or areas that are unable to effectively rule, they are ruled by military restraints, setting up a propaganda department, and dispatching princes and princes to stabilize and rule one side.

In the fringe areas, even if it is impossible to set up a consolation department, they must be made to surrender, force them to pay tribute, and appoint their kings and rulers.

King Hami, King Gongshun of Wala, Joseon Lee of Korea, and the Muromachi Shogunate of Wa were all based on this.

The political structures of Ming Dynasty and Rome are fundamentally different, which determines that this loose structure and the colonial model that only seeks profit cannot be implemented politically at all.

The emperor was the first to take the lead in opposing the establishment of colonies.

This is not counting the opposition of gossip officers and basic political correctness.

Zhu Qiyu wanted to understand the logic, and said to Xing'an: "Let Hu Shangshu have a headache, communicate more with Nikolaoz, and learn from it. Didn't Hu Shangshu say it? Theirs is ours, and ours is still ours." ?”

First cross the river by touching Rome, and try to see if the colony is feasible.

Daming's power to open the sea is insufficient, Li Binyan has always wanted to go to the horizon and walk past the main peak of Luojing (geng) to see what the horizon looks like.

Compass Zhengfeng is the farthest place that Zheng He traveled westward. When he got there, the direction of the compass and the direction of the mountain all pointed to the true north. place.

What Zhu Qiyu meant was that the core area of ​​Ming Dynasty, besides Guiliu area and Jimi area, could there be another colonial area?

This colonial area can slowly transform into a prison area and a reformed land return area.

This is Zhu Qiyu's appeal, and he hopes that his subjects can fulfill his appeal.

After Hu Wei received the emperor's request, he got into his small attic, where there were all kinds of books. These books provided him with inspiration, but they were far from enough to complete the emperor's arrangement. topic.

As soon as it was dawn in the morning, Hu Wei came to the Huitong Post and found Nikolaoz.

Nikolaoz looked at the old man Hu Wei, his scalp was numb for a while!
He couldn't understand why this old man in his 70s was so energetic.

"What time is it! The rooster hasn't crowed yet!" Nikolaoz complained, but soon he was full of smiles.

Hu Wei brought a bag of tea, which was wrapped in bright yellow tibo, and Nikolaoz knew what it was. It was a tribute tea from the Ming Dynasty, and it was the fifteen catties of Hu Wei's Qigong brand every year. A good thing that only the card holder can get.

Hu Wei explained His Majesty's request in detail before he said, "Your Majesty hopes that I can learn from your Roman colonial model and establish a royal land of Ming Dynasty."

The nomenclature of the three words "colonial" contains infinite ambiguity, so Hu Wei changed it to "Land of Wanghua".

"Why did the emperor suddenly have such an interest?" Nikolaos carefully placed the tea in the cabinet, and when he asked this sentence, his hands stopped in mid-air.

It's Elena.

Elena discussed with Nicoloz more than once about the strength of Ming, the richness of Ming and the problems that people in Ming cannot see. Daming took it for granted, but in Elena's view, it was not good for Ming. thing.

Nicholas sat on the wicker chair and said sincerely: "The broad mind of the Emperor Ming is like the sun shining on the earth."

"Such a dazzling monarch, how did the courtiers of Ming Dynasty manage to close their eyes and say that His Majesty is the king of subjugation?"

Nikolaoz's words were sincere. He and some people in Daming must be blind.

Elena, as the princess of Rome, married to Daming, spoke bad things about Daming in front of everyone in Daming, isn’t that scolding the child in front of the child’s father?

This monarch known for his cruelty actually first thought about whether this sentence was correct, instead of sending Elena to the Jieyuan Court in a fit of rage.

There are many rumors about the cruelty of the emperor, but Nikolaoz never came to this conclusion on anything.

Such a monarch is rare even in the long history of the Central Plains dynasty.

"I don't know the true face of Lushan Mountain, but I just live in this mountain." Hu Yan said with a smile.

"We were born here, grew up here, and lived like this from childhood to adulthood. How can we see the true face of Mount Lu in the middle of Mount Lu?"

Nikolaoz carefully savored this passage and this poem before saying: "I apologize for my previous rudeness."

"I used to narrowly think that Ming Dynasty had no philosophy, and I also told others that Daming is so powerful and rich, but it has no philosophy, and it is a barren land of philosophy."

"this is mine…"

The Chinese used by Nikolaoz was short of words for a while, and he didn't know how to express his meaning accurately.

Ma laughed and said, "I don't know how to learn."

"You know, I'm really a scholar!" Nikolaoz was a little excited and wanted to refute.

He is indeed ignorant, and Ming Dynasty is not a barren land of philosophy. On the contrary, every sentence left by history is full of wisdom.

After exchanging greetings with Hu Wei, Nikolaoz and Hu Wei started the topic and said: "The Roman colonial model has failed. At the beginning, Caesar took back the power to establish the colony, which annoyed many people. More than 60 elders of the Senate gave each one a knife. Caesar is gone."

"Caesar was assassinated by the Senate, but it is the mission of all emperors to take back the power to establish colonies. Caesar's adopted son Octavian finally completed this mission."

"No matter what the name of the colony is, it is Pandora's box. If it is not closed, all the evils in the world, greed, hypocrisy, slander, jealousy and pain, all originate from this and will end here."

Pandala's Box is a short story in Greek mythology, which represents the source of disasters and will cause all kinds of disasters.

Nicolaus said with great conviction: "Rome prospers here, and it also perishes here."

"Caesar is Caesar because his gaze penetrates the world and space."

In the context of Rome, Caesar is similar to the emperor of Ming Dynasty, Son of Heaven, which means emperor.

In Nikolaoz's sentence, the first Caesar refers to Caesar himself, and the second Caesar refers to the emperor.

Hu Wei understands etiquette very well. Even if it is Roman law or Roman proverbs, after such a long time of communication, Hu Wei can understand the meaning expressed by Nikolaoz.

Nikolaoz continued with a somewhat painful expression: "As Hu Shangshu often said, colonialism is short-sighted, and it cannot be governed for a long time, let alone long-term stability. It is the way to perish."

"Rome later changed its colonies into provinces, but it did not change Rome's unlimited expropriation of barbarians, and finally made the hatred between Rome and barbarians irresolvable."

"In the end, Western Rome was destroyed by barbarians and slaves, and Eastern Rome was destroyed by Ottomans."

"I sincerely hope that Daming will not take this path, it is the road to perdition."

For Nicolaus, it is difficult to admit the failure of his own system. He traveled tens of thousands of miles to seek the hope of lightning's return, but it became increasingly clear that Rome's subjugation Woe, Rome itself.

Reviving a Rome that was already damned, Nikolaoz suddenly realized that what he was doing was meaningless.

Hu Wei shook his head and said, "Da Ming will take a completely different path."

Nikolaoz looked at Hu Ming and asked, "Really?"

"I know that the recent changes in the sky have brought a lot of distress to the emperor, and the emperor of Ming Dynasty does not want their subjects to starve to death."

"I know that the emperor of Ming Dynasty has been destroying Zobo, and hoped that Zobo would disappear from the land of Daming. Since the people of Daming cannot be taken away, there must be someone to be taken away. His Majesty's eyes are looking overseas, and there is a sense of colonization. Willingness is also reasonable."

"But with the kindness of the Ming people, colonization is meaningless."

Hu Wei frowned and said, "Kindness?"

Nikolaoz nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, kindness."

"This is the infinite kindness I felt after arriving in Daming. This is not being kind to me, a Roman. The vast majority of Daming people are too kind."

"I remember Hu Shangshu once said that in the last years of Yongle, the great Emperor Yongle ordered the leaders of the grassland barbarians to get more Yongle Tongbao, make the people suffer, and stop the popularity of Yongle Tongbao in the grassland."

"And when Emperor Yongle issued this edict, it was because the Tatars lived a miserable life. They had no clothes, no iron pots, and no salt. They could only cook white meat in skins. Everyone around them felt sorry for them."

"Nowadays, the emperor of Ming Dynasty issued silver coins wantonly on the grassland, and was criticized by his courtiers. Even the elders of the Ming Dynasty repeatedly proposed to stop the circulation of Jingtai silver coins in the grassland."

"There is also the trial of the banknote law in the country of Wa. His Majesty has also been scolded many times."

"What is this if it's not kindness?"

"How to colonize this kind of universal value?"

"Economic colonization of financial affairs is regarded as a tyrannical regime, how can it colonize?"

Hu Yan said calmly: "What you said makes sense."

Through the conversation with Nikolaoz, he has fully understood that the key to the colonial road of Ming Dynasty is precisely the kindness that Nikolaoz mentioned.

Changing the colonial area to the land of kingship is definitely not as simple as a name change, it represents an internal difference.

Rome prospered in colonization and died in colonization. This is a dead end, but in Hu Wei's view, it is not the case.

"Hu Shangshu, you are always like this! When communicating with me, you always have a lot of ideas, but you always admit that I am right, and then don't express your point of view." Nikolaoz said a little annoyed.

Nikolaoz has been dealing with Hu Wei for a long time, so he naturally knows that Hu Wei has another idea, but every time Hu Wei highly praises Nikolaoz's words, and then hides his thoughts in the deepest part.

What kind of nonsense philosophy is in the barren land, such a philosophy of life, so that Nikolaoz does not know how to deal with it, this kind of Ming Dynasty etiquette that is yours is mine, mine is mine, for Nikolaoz, It was a kind of torture.

He really wanted to know what Hu Yan was thinking of.

"You're right. I naturally agree with you. Is there a problem with this logic?" Hu Wei agreed with Nikolaoz again.

Nikolaoz gritted his teeth and said, "That's right!"

This old man is too tortured.
