Daming: Spoilers about the future, Zhu Yuanzhang collapsed

Hong Chengchou came to the cabinet to work in an excited mood.

This was really new to him.

Originally, Hong Chengchou had already prepared that after he returned to the Ming Dynasty, he would be criticized and criticized by many people.

There is a high possibility that he will be hidden away, go to jail, or die because of this.

After all, this was a normal thing in the Ming Dynasty in the past.

Especially after seeing Shang Kexi's fate as a skinned daylily, Hong Chengchou's feeling became stronger and stronger.

I feel more and more that I am in danger this time and my prospects are not good.

But who would have thought that after returning this time and meeting Emperor Taizu Gao, he would be used so highly by Emperor Taizu Gao!

He directly entered the cabinet!
What is this concept?
It’s like reaching the sky in one step!

And Hong Chengchou could see that Emperor Taizu still recognized him very much.

Value your talents.

After looking at the huge difference in treatment between myself and Shang Kexi, and who are the people in the cabinet now.

Smart people like Hong Chengchou had understood the intentions of Emperor Taizu Gao to a certain extent.

I'm afraid... Emperor Taizu Gao really intends to cultivate himself!
It is very likely that I will hold myself in a more important position in the future.

After all, the people in the cabinet today are really not good enough.

It would be okay to do some relatively normal government affairs.

But if we really deal with the other big things, none of them will be successful.

This is not Hong Chengchou's boast.

But this is the fact.

Emperor Taizu Gao treated him with such courtesy that he had to think more...

Thinking of these, Hong Chengchou was particularly excited and felt relaxed.

From now on, I must serve the Ming Dynasty well!

Never call anyone a slave again!
Those bitches, let them all die!

Emperor Taizu Gao treated himself like this, gave himself a new life, and trusted himself so much

Then no matter what, you must fight to the death to serve the king!
The performance of the same person in the hands of different people is often very different.

When the same cow plows the land, in the hands of some people who are not very good at using cows, the cow will be lazy and slippery and not work well.

But in the hands of some people who are good at using cattle to plow the land, the cattle can work as hard as they want!

Although the things are different, the principles are the same.

Zhu Yuanzhang is undoubtedly a very good person.

Although the power of the cabinet has become much smaller now.

It almost became the utterance of Emperor Taizu Gao.

Just need to deal with some basic and simple government affairs.

Just follow the instructions of Emperor Taizu Gao.

But a cabinet is a cabinet after all, and it has a completely different meaning.

Now that Emperor Taizu Gao has promoted himself to such an extent, he must not let Emperor Taizu Gao down!
It was with this excitement that Hong Chengchou came to the cabinet with great motivation and immediately began to familiarize himself with government affairs.

Prepare for what comes next.

As a result, just after watching it for a while, Hong Chengchou's expression changed drastically!
Stand up suddenly!

The injuries on his hands and other parts of his body were all broken away by this intense action!

Blood oozed out.

He didn't care much about any of this.

Just a pair of eyes, staring at the official document that has been prepared in front of him.

Everyone looked extremely surprised!
That look was like seeing a ghost!
It's not that Hong Chengchou's determination is not good enough.

As a leader in war, he had been in officialdom for many years, experienced many wars, and once again went to the Manchu side. This time, he returned to the Ming Dynasty after narrowly avoiding death.

Hong Chengchou's state of mind was tempered for the better.

In many things, we can keep our emotions and angers a secret.

But at this time, the whole person still lost his composure.

I was shocked beyond measure!

He stood here and blinked hard.

Then he couldn't wait to read the official document in front of him.

Make sure you read it correctly.

This time he looked particularly carefully, reading word for word.

Don't dare miss an inch.

After a while, the expression on Hong Chengchou's face did not calm down.

There was a huge wave in my heart.

Become more vibrating!

amazing!

It's really amazing!
Was this kind of official document produced by Emperor Taizu Gao?
Wouldn’t this cost a lot of lives?
This official document is not too long, but the content above is absolutely shocking!

The content is divided into three parts.

To sum it up, the gentry and the gentry work as servants and receive food and supplies as one body.

The diners are divided into acres and the fire consumption is returned to the public.

Although this official document is not long, the content is absolutely earth-shaking!
The whole world will be shocked!
Once this official document is sent out, it will be implemented.

It must be earth-shattering!
This will shock Jiangnan and even the entire Ming Dynasty!

Many people’s minds will undergo great changes!

Of these three, each one is for the lives of many people!
Especially those gentry with powerful power reacted the most fiercely to this!
The gentry has a long history of not doing hard work and not paying food.

Originally, these policies benefited only a small number of people.

However, with the development of Ming Dynasty, the power of the civil servant group expanded again and again.

As a result, more and more people are benefiting from these policies.

So much so that now, people with lots of land do not pay food to the court.

As long as someone obtains the title, there is no need for him to take the initiative to do anything.

There will inevitably be many people who take the initiative to bring their fields to seek refuge...

Hong Chengchou is very familiar with these.

He also enjoyed such treatment before this.

It's just that I didn't do it as much as many people did.

After so many years, Hong Chengchou knew very well how many people had benefited from it.

What a huge interest class has been formed!
Many people study to obtain fame and fame. Why?
The reason is to get ahead and gain numerous benefits.

Enjoy these privileges.

After all, the book has its own golden house, and the book has its own Yan Ruyu!

As a result, now, as soon as the decree came out that the gentry and the gentry all work as errands and pay food as one, the privileges that they care about most and involve the most people are cut off.

There will definitely be a lot of people who want to fry it!

Even with the gentry serving as servants and paying food as one, the life of the gentry will definitely be far better than that of the common people below.

But it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.

After enjoying such great benefits, who would be willing to let such good things go away from them?

Who is willing to take flesh from themselves?

Even if someone were to hold her down and cut her, it would definitely be extremely painful and she would definitely resist.

As for the people who live in the countryside, they are also extremely hateful.

The Dingkou tax has always been a big tax.

It is also an important way for many gentry to demonstrate their rights and obtain benefits.

Now it is directly integrated into the farmland.

From now on, no Dingkou tax will be levied, only land tax will be levied.

Coupled with the clearing of land, many people's hidden properties will inevitably be cleared out.

Those whose families had many fields did not need to pay a penny to the court.

You will definitely not be able to bear it and will explode!

As for Huo Xiao's return to the public, it will also make many people dissatisfied, especially those in the yamen!
Hong Chengchou has been an official for so many years, and he is still the kind of person who works on the run during the Ming Dynasty.

I know these things very well in my heart.

Many of the officials below relied on firepower to gain profits crazily.

He used chicken feathers as arrows and took advantage of them.

A lot of money and food were obtained from the people below.

There are many methods, such as the most common one, kicking and fighting, such as big and small fights.

Another example is the fire consumption caused by insect bites and rat bites...

There are many means.

In the past, these fire costs were borne by the people who paid taxes.

After all these expenditures, the people below often paid much more than they should have paid in taxes.

If you meet someone who allows you to pay an extra 10% or 20%, you are considered to have met a good official!
In more cases, you need to pay 30%, 40%, or even more!
It’s simply knocking the bones and sucking out the marrow!

This made countless people deeply sad and disgusted, but there was nothing they could do.

However, many officials below have become very fat by relying on this hand.

greatly expanded their rights.

Many people in the order were as afraid of them as tigers, but they had to nod and bow.

As a result, now, the official document produced by Emperor Taizu Gao directly stipulates that the fire consumption shall be returned to the public.

I don’t know how much this will cut off the source of income for the officials below.

I don’t know how many people would jump around and curse!
If you just jump around and scold your mother, it's still good.

I'm afraid that many people will make trouble or even rebel after the decree is issued!

The gentry worked together as errands, paid grain as one body, divided the land into acres, and returned the firewood to the public servants.

No matter which one of them is taken individually, they are all policies that will shock the world, cause countless people to feel pain, and make the world into an uproar!

But now, Emperor Taizu Gao brought out all three items at once!
If this is announced and implemented, then what's the point?

That will definitely shake the world, and rebels will rise everywhere!
The current situation is originally difficult and extremely serious.

When Jiannu entered the customs, the royal family lost a large area of ​​its territory.

Now only Jiangnan is left.

In the large area of ​​Jiangnan, the power of the gentry class was the greatest.

As a result, Emperor Taizu Gao now wants to do this.

Jiangnan and other places will inevitably become war-torn and chaotic!

Now Emperor Taizu Gao only relies on Jiangnan.

If Jiangnan continues to be in chaos, then Ming Dynasty will really have no way to save it!
Even if Emperor Taizu Gao appears, no matter how powerful his methods are, it is simply impossible to perfectly resolve such matters!

Jiangnan is bound to be in chaos!

If there is chaos, the world will fall!

How could Emperor Taizu Gao promulgate such a policy at such a critical moment?

Isn’t this making yourself uncomfortable?
Hong Chengchou naturally knew that the Ming Dynasty was already terminally ill.

There are all kinds of serious problems.

And these three points put forward by Emperor Taizu Gao are definitely the right medicine!
And it’s a powerful drug!

If we can really implement these three items meticulously, implement them all, and implement them all.

Then in the future, many problems of Ming Dynasty will definitely be solved!

Become very different.

It can be said that you can get a new life!

But now is really the wrong time!

The powerful medicine prescribed by Emperor Taizu Gao was really too powerful!

Under the current situation, Daming is still a terminally ill person, and he still has some breath left.

If you use some methods to treat it slowly, there is still a possibility of recovery.

Although the medicine given by Emperor Taizu Gao was right for the patient, it was too strong!
I'm afraid that after these few doses of strong medicine, Daming, who was still able to survive, will be completely exhausted!
Things are about to get worse!
Hong Chengchou stood here with a complicated expression.

My mind was spinning, and I kept thinking here.

I looked at the things written on the official document over and over again. I couldn't help but think about what I should do next.

After some thinking, I finally made a decision.

Taking a deep breath, he returned to Wuying Palace to ask for an audience with Emperor Taizu Gao.

Although he knew that at this time, according to his status, he had just received an unusual appointment from Emperor Taizu Gao.

It is really inappropriate to go to Emperor Taizu Gao to talk about these things.

It's best to do whatever Emperor Taizu Gao said and do it yourself.

But in the end, he decided to go to Emperor Taizu Gao to express his views on these matters.

Since I told Emperor Taizu Gao not long ago that I will be loyal to the Ming Dynasty and work for the Ming Dynasty from now on.

Then some things must be done!

Don't be too concerned about your own personal honor and loss.

……

"Let him in."

In the Wuying Hall, Zhu Yuanzhang said aloud without raising his head.

Zhu Yuanzhang was not surprised at all that Hong Chengchou came back to see him again and again.

It was normal for Hong Chengchou to come to see him. If he didn't come to see him, then he would have to consider some things carefully.

"My minister, Hong Chengchou, paid homage to Emperor Taizu Gao and expressed his greetings."

After Hong Chengchou came in, he saluted Zhu Yuanzhang and said hello.

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his hand and said: "Zhen'an, why are you back so soon?
Did you see the gentry paying the rations together and working together on this official document? "

Zhu Yuanzhang did not give Hong Chengchou any detours and asked directly.

Hong Chengchou nodded vigorously when he heard this and said: "Reporting to Taizu Emperor Gao, this is indeed the case."

"What do you think about this?
If you have any ideas, please tell me. "

Hong Chengchou hesitated for a moment after hearing this, and then he said with a sudden heart: "Emperor Taizu Gao, I... I feel really aware that this powerful medicine... is too strong.

These three policies of Emperor Taizu Gao are all good policies that benefit the country and the people.

Once it can be implemented and implemented well, it will definitely benefit Ming Dynasty in the future.

Many shortcomings can be eliminated.

It's just... now is not the right time.

The most important crisis facing the Ming Dynasty today is the Tatars in the north and people like Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng.

I think what needs to be done most at this moment is to deal with all these people one by one.

Calm down the many chaos in Ming Dynasty.

Get back all those lost lands.

After doing this, it is best to implement these three strategies.

Otherwise, if these are implemented at this time, many people in Jiangnan will definitely become alienated from the imperial court.

There will even be many people rebelling...

And those people in the areas occupied by the rebels will also be extremely resistant to the Ming Dynasty after hearing the policies that you, Emperor Taizu Gao, are planning to implement.

He was sympathetic towards Jiannu and the rogue bandits and rebels, and helped them resist the imperial court.

In the future, it will be much more difficult for the imperial court to regain its lost territory..."

Facing a person like Taizu Emperor Gao, Hong Chengchou felt a lot of pressure in his heart when he said such words.

After all, this is a man of his word.

And the method is very strong, killing people without blinking an eye!

When Hong Chengchou said this to Emperor Taizu Gao, it would be strange if there was no pressure in his heart!

After Zhu Yuanzhang heard what Hong Chengchou said, he nodded calmly: "What you said is indeed correct.

As soon as these three policies are announced, many people will inevitably want to rebel.

There will definitely be many people who want to welcome the intruders or even the slaves.

Those who follow the thieves and build slaves will inevitably become more loyal to deal with me, the Ming Dynasty.

The situation will inevitably be more severe than now..."

After hearing what Zhu Yuanzhang said, Hong Chengchou wanted to say, since you know this, why do you still do it?
"We know this very well, but why do we still do it?

There is a reason why you have to do it!
The reason is simple, one word - the court has no money! "

Hong Chengchou was stunned for a moment, is this a word?

Emperor Taizu Gao said it was one word, so it was just one word.

He is Emperor Taizu Gao, and he has the final say.

“After more than two hundred years of development in our Ming Dynasty, many things are bloated.

There are too many moths lying on the body.

How can we manage the Ming Dynasty well when there are so many insects?

If the court has no money, many things cannot be done.

So I have to find ways to make money.

So the most fundamental thing is definitely taxation.

The lives of many people in the Ming Dynasty did not become better because the court could not collect taxes.

On the contrary many have become worse.

Why is that?
It's because the taxes that should belong to the imperial court have been divided up layer by layer by many insects.

It cannot fall into the hands of the imperial court.

In this case, we must get back everything that belongs to the imperial court.

This is cutting meat from them.

Even the meat they have now was stolen from the imperial court.

But if the court takes it back, they will definitely jump on it.

If you want to jump, then jump.

Anyone who dares to jump will be killed.
Just in time to confiscate all his family property, the land can also be distributed to many people and the soldiers who have made meritorious services.

So that many people can join the army enthusiastically, and many soldiers can risk their lives and fight desperately in battle!
There are many scholars and gentry here in Jiangnan, and they enjoy too many things!

There are too many benefits stolen from Daming, and they have been enjoyed for many years!
All of them were spoiled by the imperial court.

Now that we are here, we must change.

If it remains unchanged, the imperial court will not be able to survive!

You said that the most important thing for the court now is to unite these many forces to fight against the Tatars.

But in our opinion, this is not the case!

The most important thing is to maintain the situation first, and then seize the time to carry out drastic reforms.

The court must collect taxes, which is the top priority.

If you can't even collect taxes and don't have money in your hands, you will be hindered and obstructed by these many insects in the future, causing all kinds of wrangling.

If these insects are not eliminated, the court will have no money and will not be able to govern the country well.

There is no way to clean up the world!
Even in the future, I can really do this reluctantly.

But that’s also cowardly!

Under this circumstance, the Ming Dynasty established was no different from before.

It won't be long before it's shattered again.

Countless people lay on it to suck blood.

In this case, wouldn’t we have come in vain?
Now that we are here, we are going to resolve the matter thoroughly.

At least we must continue the national destiny of our Ming Dynasty for another hundred years!

So these things must be done!

It must be done at this time!

As long as these three principles can be implemented and implemented in Jiangnan.

Then my Ming Dynasty will be invincible in the future.

You should have a lot of power to face all challenges in the world!
I know what you're worried about.

You are right to worry.

However, let me tell you now, these worries are unnecessary.

Because according to the original historical process, our Ming Dynasty had already perished a month or two ago.

Zhu Youjian, that bastard, has long been hanged on the coal mountain.

Didn't run out.

Prince Cixi was also brought to Li Zicheng's side.

So much so that here in the south, there is all kinds of chaos and all kinds of struggles for power...

When the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed, we should not forget all kinds of internal strife..."

As Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, he told Hong Chengchou many things he knew about Nanming from Han Cheng.

After Hong Chengchou learned about it, he was extremely shocked.

His eyes widened.

Is this the case?

According to the original historical process, would this be the case? !
This...he didn't know what to say.

No wonder Emperor Taizu was so angry, no wonder he did so many drastic things!
"You said, in this case, are we worried that the situation will get out of control and completely collapse?
If it collapses, it will collapse! No matter how bad it is, it's still not as bad as the original ending!
If this is the case, why do we still hold back, swallow our anger, and be unable to let go?
We are here, Ming Dynasty will either regain its glory or disappear with great vigor!

Even if it was destroyed vigorously, it would be much better than the cowardly one who was destroyed by others!
We must do this!
Do or die! "

After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Hong Chengchou didn't know what to say for a moment.

He felt the tenacity of Emperor Taizu Gao, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, as well as his big mind, grandeur and grand scheme!

This kind of thing is really not something ordinary people would dare to do!
But Emperor Taizu Gao just did it!

This kind of courage surpasses too many people.

"I know what to do."

Hong Chengchou saluted Zhu Yuanzhang respectfully and said aloud.

"I will definitely go all out in the future. I will work hard to implement these things.

Try not to cause too much trouble and implement all these. "

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he nodded and said: "Okay, then you can do your job well.

We are still very optimistic about you.

If you do this well, we will be rewarded heavily in the future.

We will promote you to be the chief minister of the cabinet!

Also, let me give you a thorough explanation.

We, the Ming generals we brought, and our sons.

It's impossible to stay here for too long.

In the future, we will return to the Hongwu period.

You have to do all these things.

And you are the minister I have chosen to assist the country!
If you perform well, then the chief minister of the cabinet will let you do it.

As long as you don't act recklessly, not even Youjian or even Cixi, the child, will do anything to you in the future.

Of course, the premise is that you have the ability.

Able to do things well.

As long as you have the ability, we will dare to delegate power, dare to let you do this, and ensure your safety! "

After Hong Chengchou heard Zhu Yuanzhang's words, his whole body felt as if he had been beaten with chicken blood.

He solemnly saluted Zhu Yuanzhang and said: "Emperor Taizu Gao, I must go all out to do these things!
Not for anything else, but for your trust, Emperor Taizu Gao, and for the sake of our country, the Ming Dynasty, I must follow you, Emperor Taizu Gao, and perform a good performance.

Reshape the rivers and mountains! "

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he nodded and said: "Okay, let's remember it and go do things.

I hope you won't disappoint us. "

After hearing this, Hong Chengchou saluted Zhu Yuanzhang again and left from Wuying Hall.

After walking out, he took a deep breath and clenched his fists.

I have already made up my mind, let Jiangnan tremble next!

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Hong Chengchou's leaving figure with a smile on his face.

As a leader, he is still very good at drawing cakes.

Next, let him see who dares to rebel!
