Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 318
What is the answer Zhu Qiyu wanted?
It is to completely negate the chaos of Xuanzong and Sanyang.

These three issues are closely intertwined: the battle of Luchuan was affirmed, and the change of the civil castle cannot be entirely attributed to Zhu Qizhen alone.

This again involves the third question. Agreeing with the view that Ming Dynasty needs ZTE is acknowledging that Ming Dynasty has declined
The status quo.

Then who is the root cause of the decline of Ming Dynasty?Orthodox or Xuanzong?

The examination paper that Yue Zheng handed over combined the three questions into one, and gave a set of logic in line with Zhu Qiyu's thinking:

Xuanzong and Sanyang's chaotic government made the most inexplicable strategic contraction among the great dynasties of all dynasties externally, and did not make any outstanding achievements internally.

In just ten years, the southern tribute system collapsed and Luchuan rebelled.

Zhu Qizhen had no choice but to come out to wipe Xuanzong's ass, and launched the ten-year-long Battle of Luchuan, which led to the complete collapse of the south, to the point where the people were in dire straits and chaos occurred frequently.

As a result, a chain reaction was triggered, and a large number of Ming army elites were transferred to the southern battlefield. As a result, the northern battlefield was out of control, and civil fortress changes occurred.

In the end, the power of the Ming Dynasty weakened rapidly, and the Ming Lord had to come out to rejuvenate the Ming Dynasty.

It may not be that no other candidates have thought of this, but there is only one person who dares to write it in the examination paper.

Zhu Qiyu looked at the answer sheet in his hand. Among them, how to rejuvenate the Ming Dynasty and create a prosperous world again. The answer given by this crazy examinee is:

Completely deny Xuanzong, deny orthodoxy, deny Sanyang, and carry out comprehensive reforms.

Re-expand externally and settle the Quartet; domestically, lightly pay and pay less, and accumulate people's strength.

In a word, abandon the hypocritical rule of benevolence and propaganda, and make every effort to create a martial arts-enhanced version of the rule of Wenjing.

Zhu Qiyu looked at He Yi, Yue Zheng and the others, handed back the examination papers, and then sighed heavily: "Oh, let him be the Jieyuan of the Shuntianfu Township Examination.

All of the more than 20 excellent answers that you selected were selected.

As for other places, let the cabinet decide. "

A total of about [-] Juren were produced in Shuntianfu Township Examination, Zhu Qiyu appointed more than [-] candidates, and the remaining places were given to the cabinet.

Finally, after dealing with the problems of the township examination, Zhu Qiyu got up and went back to Wenrou Township.

Although talking and laughing on the soft couch for a long time, Zhu Qiyu still felt very tired.

Mainly because of tiredness, although Zhu Qiyu never dealt with ordinary affairs, there are still too many things to worry about.

So when he got home, Zhu Qiyu immediately chose to soak in the hot spring.

Accompanied by Qianxue in the hot spring, seeing her husband so tired, she hesitated and hesitated to speak.

Zhu Qiyu asked curiously: "What's the matter, my concubine Yu, is there another moth in the palace?"

Qianxue smiled wryly and said, "I conveyed my husband's meaning in the morning, and Empress Qian is not happy. Look at the meaning, the harem will soon be on fire again, this time mainly to burn the West Sixth Palace or the East Sixth Palace."

"Why, the relationship between the new concubine of the Supreme Emperor and the old concubine is deadlocked?"

Qianxue nodded: "This is quite normal, it's human nature. When the husband chooses the next batch of concubines, we old people will also quarrel with the new ones.

After all, if it weren't for the sisters who grew up together, who would be willing to share their man with irrelevant people. "

Hearing this, Zhu Qiyu waved his hands vigorously: "There is no next batch, so let's do it like this. I teach us that if you get less, you will gain, but if you have more, you will be confused.

How much is a lot, fifteen top beauties, enough, enough.

Basically every type is covered, I am content with it.

Let's live peacefully and steadily.Don't be too idle to make palace fights, you're making trouble for yourself.

Our strategy is to make our own backyard impregnable and make the Taishang Royal's backyard restless. "

Qianxue asked curiously: "Husband won't need a new woman for the rest of his life? Don't you want to try something new?"

"Forget it, living a good life is much more important than trying something new. How is the Supreme Emperor's new concubine arranged?"

"Empress Qian and Empress Zhou discussed this matter. The most favored new concubines were placed in Wanchen Concubine Palace."

Zhu Qiyu nodded, then immediately shook his head.

What Queen Zhou thinks, I can understand.

What Queen Qian was thinking, she couldn't understand.

Let a few favored new concubines live with Concubine Wan Chen, and wait for something to happen to Concubine Wan Chen's two princes.

Queen Zhou hoped that something would happen to the prince born to Concubine Wan Chen, which is human nature.

Empress Qian and Concubine Wan Chen are temporary allies, why do they act like this?
Recently, after Zhu Qiyu's relationship with his favorite concubines has improved, his understanding of women's minds has also improved.

When he was free, Zhu Qiyu repeatedly deduced the important people, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Empress Qian was not as simple as imagined.

Zhu Qiyu had a bold guess: in history, after Zhu Qizhen was banned in Nangong, the so-called female worker of Empress Qian to support the family was not for selling money to support the family at all.

Instead, they use female workers as a cover to pass messages to ministers in foreign courts, which is similar to the clothes belt edict of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty.

Zhu Qiyu himself thinks that this kind of speculation is not too wild and unconstrained. First of all, Jingtai in history is not cruel enough at all. It is said that Zhu Qizhen's family lacks clothes and clothes, and has reached the point where they need to make a living by doing needlework for money?Not so.

Furthermore, even if it was sewing, after all, Empress Qian was the majestic mother of a country, there was no reason for the queen to do needlework, and the other concubines in Zhu Qizhen were watching.

Empress Qian is blind in one eye and lame in one leg. Even if Zhu Qizhen is so poor that he needs to make needlework for money, it is reasonable for his concubine to do the work.At least some of the concubines are working, and there is no need to put all the responsibility on the shoulders of a blind queen.

And after Queen Qian finished working as a female worker, who sold it for her?
Now I have to mention Zhu Qiyu's bolder conjecture: at that time, there seemed to be only one person who often went in and out of Nangong to visit Empress Qian: Mrs. Wang.

Thinking about it is terrifying, thinking about it is terrifying.

Thinking of this, Zhu Qiyu sighed heavily again.

Seeing this, Qianxue asked earnestly: "My husband, don't worry, why don't I try to persuade Shu Liang and Zhang Yong?"

Hearing this, Zhu Qiyu smiled wryly and waved his hands again and again: "Forget it, forget it, you can't set fire again. You can play a routine three or four times and it will be enough, otherwise it will be too obvious, and it will become Sima Zhao's heart, passers-by We all know.

Besides, Empress Qian and Concubine Wan Chen are still of great use to me.

Anyway, in the end, the Supreme Emperor must die "naturally".

It must be "subtle and subtle, and accumulate over time", and absolutely cannot use any means that will create suspicion. "

After finishing speaking, Zhu Qiyu immediately added: "After all, it's my brother. Actually, I don't want to be like this. As long as their family is willing to live in Fengyang Palace, I won't treat them badly in life.

They can live as long as they want, and I don't care about them.

Hey, it's a pity, they are in all kinds of difficulties, and they can't leave the Forbidden City. "
