Can you live forever

Chapter 185

Not all literati refused to be eagle dogs for the emperor.

In fact, it was only because the emperor stayed in the deep palace for a long time that he could only come into contact with a group of ministers. Those were scholar-officials. From the perspective of the people, scholars might seem to disregard the emperor on the surface, talking about "the holy emperor ruled by himself".

But if they really have the opportunity to show their loyalty to the emperor and get reused, they are more active than anyone else.

The strategy of showing talent with fireworks became popular for a while. The few fireworks manufacturers in Yangzhou City were basically full of orders and shy in their pockets, so they saved a few words.

But fireworks are only a matter of a few seconds. If you write hundreds of words, who can see clearly?

Merchants naturally come according to customer requirements, but those who know the trick basically use one sentence, and then make the characters bigger and better, and those who are shameless can directly put their own names, such as "Jiangzuo Shoucai, so-and-so .”

Anyway, I tried my best to make a deep impression on myself in Jiajing, and hoped that the emperor would pay attention to this talented man in the field.

In short.

The people's attitude towards the emperor was actually very welcome. The emperor's southern tour was treated as a lively event. After all, the Ming emperor's southern tour did not know how to search for places.

Not everyone is a deaf and old dog. Six trips to the south of the Yangtze River have been exploited along the way, and it has been 50 years since the tax was collected.

Of course, the atmosphere in Yangzhou is different from that in Huai'an.

In order to let Jiajing "play" Yangzhou, no one deliberately smeared Jiajing with rhythm, but in Huai'an, because of the stove household, Jiajing's dragon boat stopped in Huai'an, and hundreds of literati came to the pier from time to time to petition for Jiajing to abolish "Dengwen" "Two principles of salt introduction, sympathy for all people in the world.

As for those salt officials who were late yesterday.

These literati said that Jiajing's methods were cruel, not like what the owner did...

Anyway, they are trying their best to smear Jiajing as a tyrant and a fool, and the people in Huai'an are also skeptical. The kitchen households were very happy to kill the dog officials yesterday, but they also feel that Dengwen Lianggang Yanyin is still there, and they will still be exploited in the future. , the trust in the emperor began to waver again.

But the death of hundreds of salt officials and salt officials has somewhat vented some emotions.

The air of rebellion was gone.

According to Karma Chali Gyatso, our master Fahai’s traveling situation, in fact, Jiajing only needs to stay in Huai’an for five days.

He won't leave yet.

After Ling Chi finished those salt officials, two days later, Jiajing actually went ashore.

The officials accompanying the ship were stunned, as were the literati who petitioned on the pier. The emperor was really inspired by them and decided to repent and start a new life?Are they going to be famous in history now?
of course.

What was even more bewildering was that the kitchen households were worried and angry when they couldn't see the emperor, but when the emperor really disembarked and came to them, they all panicked.

What resentment, anger, are gone, some are just fear.

Jiajing was surrounded by Guo Xun, Marquis of Wuding, and a Taoist priest, plus Huang Jin, the former imperial eunuch, without even a guard. He just walked towards the crowd of petitioners, and what was ushered in was the way that the crowd retreated like a tide. , and the mountain shouted "long live".

After shouting long live several times, my emotions became more and more full.

Finally, someone couldn't hold back, just like a wronged child crying to his parents, people began to shout: "My lord, we are suffering, my lord!"

"Save us, my lord."

"My lord, it's useless to kill those salt officials. After killing one batch, there will be another batch."

"My lord, let's cancel the stove, we don't want to cook salt anymore, we want to farm, we also want to live a life full of food."

"My lord, look at my hands, the salt that has been boiled for a lifetime, the hands and feet are rotten!"

……

The common people are never stupid, they know who really harmed them, but forced to survive, they can only ask the emperor to cancel the two guidelines, but when the emperor really came to them, they began to tell the truth and appealed.

Because Jiajing delayed more than 100 salt officials yesterday, the literati hated it.

But the people knew in their hearts that this His Majesty was thinking of their people!I heard that the emperor will go to worship the great grandfather. Since ancient times, no emperor has treated the common people as well as the great grandfather.

The emperor who will worship the great ancestor is the Holy Master Mingjun!
It has been more than 100 years since Zhu Yuanzhang passed away, but his Yu Ze still protects Daming and maintains the legitimacy of the Ming royal family. Let alone 100 years, it is 200 years. In 2000, ordinary people will remember that there was once such an emperor who really loved the people Like a child.

This simple cognition is rooted in the hearts of ordinary people.

Even at the end of the Ming Dynasty, after Li Zicheng rebelled, he still respected Chongzhen and hoped to be the king of Ming Dynasty, not to replace him. Many contradictions.

If you look at the memoirs and Guoyan, you will find that things are not that simple.

But it depends on the truth.

You have to read..."Dream of Red Mansions", and understand the Dream of Red Mansions, and then you can see the colorful history of the late Ming Dynasty.Only then can we understand how much hard work the author has put in to preserve the truth and Chinese culture.

Whether Li Zicheng went to the capital to serve the king, join forces with Chongzhen, or destroy the Ming Dynasty is a matter for the benevolent to see the benevolent and the wise.

In short.

Whether it was Tumubao or King Ning's rebellion, they didn't dare to subvert Daming, so they knew how prestigious the Ming royal family was among the people. Even after more than 100 years, Lao Zhu was not forgotten by the people.

then.

Jiajing walked among the crowd, among the tens of thousands of kitchen households, and he listened to them complaining for a long time, and when they stopped by themselves, he asked them to nominate someone with high morals to be their representatives to talk about the real life of the kitchen households. .

After hearing this, Jiajing asked people to invite craftsmen, Lehu, farmers, porters, laborers from Huai'an city...

He invited the people at the bottom of these societies, asked them to send representatives to tell their real life, listened to them complain to himself, and also complained to the general public.

Jiajing didn't do anything, he just stayed at the pier for three days and listened to the people's complaints for three days.

However, whether it was the accompanying officials or the officials in Huai'an City, they all panicked.

Standing at the bow of the boat, Yan Song looked at Jiajing who left the officials and walked into the crowd. He squinted his eyes and always felt that Jiajing at this time was more like an emperor than sitting on the dragon chair in the Imperial Palace.

He left the palace and stood among the people.

He is a real emperor with imperial power in his hands.

Yan Song thought that this was already very powerful, but when Jiajing went to the salt field to cook salt with the stove households, and experienced the life of the stove households, he realized that he still underestimated Jiajing.

And all the officials watched the emperor's unreasonable playing of cards, and their unreasonable panic became even heavier.

They gathered in front of Xia Yan.

He asked: "Old Xia Ge, what is your majesty going to do? How can you do the job of boiling salt yourself? Now that spring is beginning to plow, your majesty will go to the village to plow the land. Sometimes the ox is not needed, and the plow is plowed by himself. The shoulders are bleeding. These tens of thousands of people followed His Majesty to watch, people ate horse chews, and His Majesty asked us to be responsible for their food."

"This, this is not a problem, Mr. Xia Ge."

Xia Yan stretched out his hand, feeling the continuous drizzle in the sky, and thought of poems like "Spring rain is as expensive as oil", as if he didn't listen to the words of the officials at all.

It's just that I was asked a lot, so I replied: "How to stop it? Who will stop it?"

"Those tens of thousands of people looked at him and already respected His Majesty as a saint. Even if His Majesty asked them to clear the king's side, they would pick up their hoes and rush over without hesitation."

"Can you stop it?"

　Well, the first three shifts have also been paid off.
