Daming Crazy Emperor

The huge Emperor slowly left the port, with more than [-] flying dragon warships clearing the way in front, and [-] Aegis warships on the left and right.

There are [-] large fishing boats, [-] armed merchant ships and [-] Spike warships behind.

It took an hour for the entire fleet to leave the port and line up on the sea, which was a terrifying length of more than 100 miles.

Such a fleet can only be pulled out by the Ming Empire.

The strength of the Ming Empire is really enough to sweep the world.

Looking at this huge fleet, Taichang couldn't help showing a hint of pride.

The grandson of the emperor, Zhu Cihong, took a few aunts and ran around the top of the Emperor, looking at the front, the back, the left, and the right behind Liang Wang Zhu Youfeng's ass.

He really didn't expect to see such a spectacular scene when he left the palace for the first time.

At this moment, the emperor was surrounded by ships, and the super telescope with a viewing distance of about twenty miles could not see the end, so he was naturally very excited.

Taichang didn't say anything, just let them run wild there.

After all, they are all just teenagers, the most active and curious age.

If you force them to stand beside you and not move at the beginning, even if they are standing, their hearts will not know where they are going.

At this time, the best way is to let them go crazy and let them run as much as they want.

Anyway, there is a lot of time on this journey, they always have enough time to go crazy, and when they are tired from running.

He just called Wu Wan'er and other concubines, explained a few words in detail, and then left it alone.

Sure enough, less than half an hour after the little guys went crazy, they were already sweating and panting from exhaustion.

At this time, Wu Wan'er rushed up with a few concubines and a group of maids, and wiped their sweat, fanned them, and fed them iced juice.

She worked for quite a while, until these little fellows were no longer panting, and then she kindly said: "Okay, Feng'er, take Wang'er to your father's side to have a look.

Wan'er, Ai'er, go back to the palace with your mother to rest for a while, and play with Hong'er later. "

The little guys have no strength to go crazy right now, so they are naturally obedient.

Soon, Zhu Youfeng dragged Zhu Cihong to Taichang's side.

Seeing that they were all honest, Taichang smiled slightly and said, "How about it, Hong'er, is it fun and happy?"

Zhu Cihong nodded repeatedly and said, "It's fun, happy."

Taichang smiled again and said, "Do you know a man's responsibility?"

Zhu Cihong said without hesitation: "A good man should respect his elders first, raise his children, and treat his wives and concubines well, so that everyone can live happily."

Oh, it looks like this little guy should have been fully prepared before coming.

Taichang nodded slightly, and asked again: "Have you read those history books?"

Zhu Cihong said without hesitation: "My grandson has read "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" and "23 History."

Not bad, I can read so many history books at such a young age, I should be very diligent in normal times.

This is also what he told the prince Zhu Youxiao. It is enough to teach a little about the "Four Books and Five Classics". For an emperor, history books are the most important.

Because you can know the rise and fall by reading history books.

Why a dynasty prospers and why it declines, although the appearances are different, the internal reasons are actually similar.

Taichang nodded slightly, and then asked again: "Then how do you think the country should be governed?"

Zhu Cihong still said without hesitation: "The so-called those who win the hearts of the people win the world. My grandson believes that the most important thing in governing the country is to be diligent and love the people."

Well, a good starting point.

However, this is a bit of a slogan, and it is also a bit divorced from reality.

Taichang nodded slightly, and then asked again: "Then how do you know the people's support?

In other words, how do you understand the hearts of the people? "

Uh, my father and all my mentors seem to have never taught me this question!

Zhu Cihong thought for a while, and then he had an idea: "Grandson thinks that he should go to the folks to see for himself, and pay more private visits."

Well, not bad, at least I know not to listen to one side of the story.

Taichang thought for a while, then asked again: "What should you do if you find that the people are full of complaints and the people are miserable?"

Ah!
Zhu Cihong was dumbfounded.

No one taught him this!
He was stunned for a while, and then said carefully: "Is this unlikely?"

impossible?
Taichang shook his head slightly and said, "Nothing is impossible.

How powerful is the Qin Dynasty?
Sweep Liuhe!

How is the result?

He died in 16 years!

How powerful was the Han Dynasty?
A total of only four hundred and seven years.

How powerful was the Tang Dynasty?
A total of only 290 years.

How powerful was the Song Dynasty?
A total of only 320 years.

How powerful was the Yuan Dynasty?
A total of only 98 years.

The rise and fall of the dynasty is like a curse, no one can avoid it!

Why, you know? "

Zhu Cihong was dumbfounded, how could he know this!

Seeing this, Taichang analyzed in detail: "The demise of the Qin Dynasty can be said to be an accident, but it is also inevitable.

I won't say anything else, just talk about Zhao Gao's power play.

A eunuch forced Fusu, the eldest son of the first emperor, to commit suicide, and made Hu Hai, the youngest son of the first emperor, the emperor.

In the end, he even killed the prime minister Li Si, made himself prime minister, and forced Qin II Hu Hai to commit suicide, making Ziying emperor.

I have to say that the power of the eunuch is really terrifying.

Hu Hai thought that relying on a eunuch to be able to secure a stable position was too naive.

Therefore, it is said in "Emperor Ming Zu Xun" that eunuchs are not allowed to interfere in politics, you must keep in mind. "

This Zhao Gao was indeed too scary, Zhu Cihong was so frightened that he shivered, he didn't want to be forced to commit suicide!

He hastily cupped his hands and said, "Grandson must remember."

Taichang also solemnly confessed: "Not only do you have to remember it, but you also have to let future generations remember it.

Also, Ziru and Cheng'en, you should also pay attention, but any eunuch with evil intentions should be killed directly, and no harm will be left behind. "

Cao Huachun and Wang Chengen hurriedly cupped their hands and said, "I understand."

Taichang nodded slightly, and continued: "The Qin Dynasty is a bit special. It's really weird that it destroyed itself in 16 years, so I won't talk about it for now.

Let's talk about the Han Dynasty.

The reason why the Han Dynasty fell, actually began with eunuchs intervening in politics. The rebellion of Shichangshi can be said to have directly pushed the declining Han Dynasty to its demise.

Emperor Ling even claimed that Zhang Changshi is my father and Zhao Changshi is my mother, which is simply inexplicable.

If an emperor is useless and has to rely on eunuchs, what qualifications does he have to be emperor?

Hong'er, you have to remember, from now on, anyone in my royal family who dares to call eunuchs father and mother will be killed directly, so as not to be ashamed and humiliate their ancestors! "

Zhu Cihong nodded quickly and said: "Grandson, please remember."

Taichang couldn't help sighing: "Oh, eunuch, let's not talk about this eunuch.

In fact, the Qin and Han dynasties were pushed to perish by the eunuchs only on the surface, including the reason why the subsequent dynasties will perish, all stemming from the word "greed".

People's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants, and once people become greedy, it is quite terrifying.

Why do the prosperous times go to decline, and why do the people end up with nothing to cover their clothes and food?
Could it be that money and food will become less and less as a prosperous age develops?
This is obviously impossible.

If the normal situation continues, the money and food in the prosperous age will only increase.

So where did the money go?
Obviously, someone was greedy!

Only a few people greedily take all the money and food of most of the people into their own hands, will the prosperity develop to the point where the people have no clothes to cover their bodies and food to eat.

Therefore, the reasons for the final decline of each prosperous dynasty are basically the same, that is, all the money and food are corrupted by corrupt officials, and the common people have no way of life, and the world will inevitably be in chaos. "

This, is it possible?

Zhu Cihong really couldn't understand this at such a young age.

He was quite puzzled and said: "Grandfather, my Ming Dynasty is so prosperous, and the money and food are more than hundreds of millions. Are corrupt officials exhausted?"

You don't know how greedy corrupt officials are.

Taichang sighed slightly, and then gave an example: "Qin Hui, you know, right?
He was greedy for more than 6000 million guan in copper coins alone. According to the price of rice at that time, he could buy 44 billion catties of rice.

Liu Jin, do you know?

He was greedy for 500 million taels of silver alone, and thousands of pieces of other jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings. According to the price of rice at that time, he could buy 240 billion catties of rice.

Yan Song, do you know?

The gold ingots, gold bars, gold belts, gold cakes, gold leaves, gold dust, broken gold, silver, silverware, and jade pieces he corrupted amounted to tens of millions of taels of silver.

There are also pearls, ivory, coral, rhino horn, tortoiseshell, sandalwood, enamel, etc., which are worth tens of millions of taels of silver.

There are also all kinds of antiques, ancient books, and calligraphy and paintings by famous masters of the past dynasties, which add up to tens of thousands of pieces, and the value cannot be estimated at all.

Also, he has more than 6000 mansions, manors, and courtyards in various places, and the largest one has more than 300 houses. How much is this?

If all his corrupted items were converted into silver, it would be enough to sell hundreds of billions of catties of grain.

You said, is Daming's money and food enough for these corrupt officials?
As long as there are a few Yan Songs from Daming, the common people will have no food to eat, no clothes to wear, and no place to live! "

Hearing this, Zhu Cilang couldn't help saying: "Grandfather, what shall we do?"

Taichang concluded: "Actually, the way of governing the country in the prosperous age is very simple. In the simplest terms, it is to kill corrupt officials.

No matter who it is, as long as it dares to be greedy, kill it.

For this kind of people, you must not be soft, because they are poaching the corner of Daming, they are just looking for the people's fat and anointing, so that the common people can't live.

The common people can't live anymore, and the world will be in chaos. If you indulge them, you are looking for death!

This kind of person is more hateful than the enemy, and the destructive power is greater than the enemy. If you catch him, don't think about it, just one word, kill!

Don't be soft-handed, let alone let go.

Only by killing all corrupt officials can the common people have enough food and clothing, and only then can the Ming Dynasty be peaceful.

As for how to kill corrupt officials, or how to get rid of corrupt officials, this needs to be done in many ways.

It's not enough for you to visit privately with a micro-service. You may not be able to complete the entire territory of Daming in your lifetime.

Therefore, you have to use other means, such as using Jin Yiwei to spy, using the inspector's censor, using capable ministers and officials, and so on.

In short, you must not let corrupt officials cover the sky with one hand.

You should also pay attention to the court, no matter who it is, if the power is in the court, you don't have to ask anything, just dismiss and investigate.

The goal of these people to seize power is nothing more than greed! "

kill!

How much do you have to kill?

Zhu Cihong asked timidly: "Grandpa Huang, they won't wait for us to kill them. What if they resist?"

Good question.

Taichang said solemnly: "Of course this is suppressed by force. You must always keep in mind that you must firmly control all the people in Daming. As long as you have the elite of Daming, you don't have to worry about corrupt officials who cannot be killed.

I have already paved the way for you. All generals who are loyal to Daming will be canonized as princes and nobles. In the future, I will even confer kings on them so that they have their own fiefdoms.

These princes and nobles are all related to the country. When the Ming Dynasty is over, they are also over.

So, you have to win them over and let them help you protect Daming.

Of course, there may also be unworthy descendants among these princes and nobles, so you should be careful about this.

If anyone becomes a dude, you must not give them military power. "

This is so complicated.

Zhu Cihong just stood there in a daze, and didn't say anything for a long time.

Seeing this, Taichang said to Zhu Youfeng: "Feng'er, you and Jian'er control the Daming Bank and Daming Western Firm, and you can help me more in the future.

For example, punishing corrupt officials, you can actually help.

Corrupt officials are greedy for money, and they will always find ways to save money or buy various luxury goods.

This is a huge loophole. Once you find someone abnormal, whose income or expenditure far exceeds his salary, you can report it secretly and deal with him! "

Uh, well, this one seems a bit complicated too.

Zhu Youfeng also froze there, lost in thought.
