eldest son of Ming dynasty

"Ridiculous!" Zhu Houzhao was very angry when he heard about this incident. "This is the big thing you said? The court dispute resorted to street violence and passed on to future generations. What is my face?"

Yan Song was also very frightened, "My minister is guilty, please appease your majesty!"

"Whether I will calm down or not depends on how you explain it!"

Yan Song was helpless, his expression was tangled as if he was constipated, he thought about it and finally said, "I just told them to help each other. Who knows... who knows that they think so."

His words saved some face for the Zhu family.In fact, I want to say that these people can do such a thing at the best level!How much more can you expect from them?
But when you think about it, beating people without beating them to death, just beating them up to vent their anger, this kind of thing is indeed too naive and stupid, where it is still high-ranking court politics, it is clearly two hooligans in the village fighting.

And the reason why Zhu Houzhao was angry was that this kind of atmosphere was very bad. If there was any discord between them in the future, they would find someone to beat each other behind their backs. What a bad political ecology!If it is not stopped, there will be endless disasters in the future!

But what Yan Song said... well, it makes sense.Those clans will probably do the same.

"The matter of the clan's salary for those people, have you done it?"

"It's done."

"How to do it? How could the Ministry of Households agree? No one came to report to me."

"I relied on the three-inch tongue to convince them. The country is in a prosperous age, and one or two thousand shi of grain should be given to the clan. This is the rule set by the court. It is not difficult to persuade them to follow the rules. As for your Majesty... The minister then told them, why bother His Majesty with such a trivial matter."

"Hey, you are a former servant, you have a lot of face."

Yan Song leaned down again, "Everything I have is given by His Majesty."

"Okay, get up."

Zhu Houzhao was a little impatient, but he did instruct Yan Song to do this matter, and he didn't report it to the emperor, which is good.

The emperor didn't know that it was all done by the 'treacherous minister Yan Song', isn't that bad?

This 'Old Yan Ge' must have touched this point so he dared to tell the whole story.

What a fine person, even Zhu Houzhao, a visitor from later generations, has to admit at this moment that his thoughts should have been touched by Yan Song [-] to [-]%.

The style of the emperor and the style of the ministers will influence each other, mainly the emperor influences the ministers, there is no absolutely smart person in the world, no matter how smart you are, after gradually replacing, there will be some ministers who are smarter than you.

Only these people can stand in the court without falling.

Now, the person who guessed his mind like this finally appeared.

"Okay, don't look like you're about to cry again, I'm annoying looking at you." Zhu Houzhao felt a headache, "Zhang Demao will definitely come to the palace to argue with me in a while, you seem to be taking it lightly."

Yan Song laughed and said flatteringly: "No matter what, it's always good to make them angry and make the officials angry. It's convenient for Your Majesty to go down the donkey and settle the suzerain vassal matter."

"Where do you want to go?"

"I will obey His Majesty's arrangement!" Yan Song said very emotionally.

"I have been reading books recently, and the imperial court in Guizhou mainly entrusted local chieftains as the main strategy. The system of chieftains had a positive effect on the rapid unification of the country at the beginning of the dynasty, but is it still the same after more than a hundred years? I am actually a little confused .

The leader of the chieftain pretends to be my Juelu and favors his name. If the imperial court dispatches a lot, he will change in a hurry, relying on his merits and neglecting his mistakes, and the intrusion will become deeper and deeper.The borderlands are the most prone to disasters. If the imperial court doesn't pay attention, maybe the Han people are the most bullied.I have an idea, intending to change the soil and return to the bucolic, you can think about it after you go down. "

Yan Song thought to himself that the emperor's ambition is really great, but there is no need to refuse this kind of credit to his hands, this is a holy will!
"I understand."

After speaking, he still had no intention of leaving, Zhu Houzhao was puzzled, "What's wrong?"

Yan Song's eyes turned red suddenly, and a big man cried and said: "I don't know when I will see your Majesty after I leave, and I can't restrain my heart for a while. I'm rude, please punish me, Your Majesty."

This traitor!

What a goddamn good at acting!

But a big man really looked like he was about to cry, Zhu Houzhao couldn't say anything.

If they don't cooperate, it's easy to reject the heart of a treacherous minister.

So I could only sigh, "Among the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, only the most empathetic to me, and I can't bear to part with you."

"How can my minister be so favored by His Majesty! From now on, I can only repay the king's kindness with all my heart."

"Go on. Li Mengyang was beaten to death, you just don't admit it to death, and then I will demote you to Guizhou Xuanwei Division to be an acquaintance. If you deny it to death but someone denounces you with real evidence, then go to Xuanwei Division Do something."

Qian Shi is two levels lower than Tongzhi.

The official positions of the Xuanweisi were set up, and the Xuanweishi was the post of the local official, but the Tongzhi, Deputy Envoy, and Qianshi who assisted him were appointed by the imperial court.

This is the condition reached by the central government and the local chieftain, which is the so-called Jiji policy.This policy began to gradually disintegrate in the middle and late Ming Dynasty. The opportunity was that the chieftains of Guizhou continued to raise troops and rebelled during the Wanli and Tianqi years. After being defeated, the winners would naturally send officials.

During the Kangxi and Yongzheng years of the Qing Dynasty, a relatively thorough reform was carried out, that is, local officials were no longer fixed as chieftains, but were sent by the imperial court to serve as officials.

This is the real sense of inclusion in the territory.

Because the Qing Dynasty was originally a border minority, its rulers were not like the Han emperors who had the traditional consciousness of "inner China, Xia, and barbarians". That's it.

The Manchu emperors naturally had the concept of a 'multi-ethnic country', and did not treat you specially because you were not Han. In fact, in the eyes of the Qing rulers, the ethnic groups in the southwest region, like the Han, should be included in my rule.

Otherwise, the southwestern region can be detained, so can the Mongolian people?If the Mongols can do it too, can the Han people do it?If this continues, the foundation of the Qing court will be affected.

In particular, Emperor Yongzheng paid the most attention to the serious problems of some chieftains in the border areas who indulged in lawlessness, endangered the society, competed with the imperial court for land, mineral resources and other resources, obstructed the passage of post roads and the entry of foreign populations, and believed that "although there is no serious harm at present, it will be more serious in the long run." as a hidden danger".

However, it was not easy to promote this matter in the Ming Dynasty, because it was far away from the Central Plains and belonged to the wild frontier, and the orthodoxy of the Han people was not willing to pour resources into this place.

Zhu Houzhao is sending Yan Song over now, and he is also leaving a room for later, let's talk about it at that time.

Right now, the current troubles are even more troublesome.

What he expected was right, not long after Yan Song left, Zhang Mao, an old man, entered the palace angrily, and when he saw the emperor crying and shouting, he knelt down and cried loudly: Your Majesty!During the reign of Emperor Ming, during the prosperous age, someone actually committed a crime in the street and beat the court official, causing Li Mengyang to faint and die. For such a despicable act, the old minister begged His Majesty to send you to investigate carefully, and the perpetrator must be arrested and brought to justice!Otherwise, how can the hearts of scholars in the world be preserved? !Where is the splendor and majesty of the imperial court reflected, Your Majesty! "

Taking advantage of the interval between the old minister's distressed report, Zhu Houzhao squinted at Youzhi, with a somewhat weak look in his eyes.

You Zhi also replied: (ó﹏ò).

"Mr. Zhang, you get up first. I have also heard about this, and I have already sent people to the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple to enter the palace. You don't have to be so sad, this matter is so bad, and I will definitely uphold justice for Li Mengyang."

Zhang Mao was usually stubborn, but what the emperor said meant what he meant, so he was very obedient. With the help of his servant, he stood up, and there were indeed tears on his old face, "I thank you, Your Majesty."

"Why do you need to say thank you? Mr. Zhang, Li Mengyang is an official of the General Political Department. To beat him privately is a violation of the court's law. As long as it is found out, I will never forgive him lightly. But you just said that his life and death are inseparable. It’s different, why, did his injury get worse?”

Zhang Mao raised his hand and wiped the corners of his eyes, and said: "When I entered the palace, I heard a report from my subordinates that Li Mengyang had passed out. The old minister thought to himself, if everyone has passed out, they must have been beaten severely."

Zhu Houzhao was choked up, damn it, then you guessed it yourself and yelled here!He thought that something had happened, and Li Mengyang was beaten up, which he could accept, but it would be different if he was beaten to death or disabled.

"Remind me, why haven't the people from the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple arrived yet?!" The emperor was in a bad mood for some reason, "Mr. Zhang is older than them! His legs and feet are faster than them!"

You Zhi was taken aback, and he slandered Zhang Mao a few words in his heart, "Your Majesty, forgive me, and this slave will go to remind you."

Zhang Mao was finally 'satisfied' with the emperor's behavior, "Your Majesty, we must conduct a detailed investigation this time, and the grievances of the scholars have been calmed down."

"Who do you think did it?"

"Bold minister, Yan Song and Li Mengyang have been fighting recently, and this matter is most likely caused by someone sent by Yan Song!"

Zhu Houzhao knew, "Will Yan Song be so stupid? We all know that the two of them have enmity, and they did such a thing at this juncture? Although you are angry, Mr. Zhang, you should remain calm."

They're pretty quiet here,

Five of the six Jisi sons outside were completely insane. When they heard that Li Mengyang was beaten, they all beat their chests and stamped their feet, as if the sky was falling and the earth was falling!
Bian Gong was even more furious. In Li Mengyang's mansion, he patted his chest in front of his family and promised, "I will give the emperor a report, whether it is tolerable or unbearable, even if this matter makes the emperor lose his head, he will not hesitate!"
