The Head of the Ming Dynasty Spared His Life

OK!

no problem. 240

Are you here to support these refugees?These hundreds of thousands of people, go to your house for dinner?

What?You can't afford it?

Hey, what a coincidence, the elders in this pavilion can't afford it.

The entire north has been snowing for more than a month, and all the wheat being planted has been frozen to death. Do you have the ability to keep the snow from falling?

What?You can't either?

Then what are you blind BB for?

Sent to a foreign country, separated from the flesh and blood?

That's better than developing to millions of refugees, thousands of miles of barren land, people eating people, changing children to eat, isn't it a little bit better?

After Yan Song got this reason, he quickly entered the palace to present an 'old' Zhengchen to Emperor Jiajing... No, he was a playwright, saying that he was getting old and couldn't handle his work, so he wanted to resign and go home up.

Emperor Jiajing 囧: "..."

The current disaster is so serious that even the emperor has a headache.How can you, Yan Song, resign?Say no to do it?Still say you are old?Do you think I'm a fool?

Jiajing immediately stated that he did not accept the resignation of the first assistant.

Yan Song said with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, the disaster in our country is serious now. There are 1.6 million mouths and three meals a day. If you don't eat that one meal, you will have an accident. But God is against us. Such a disaster, the entire north has no particles. Accept, what can I do? I am also desperate."

Jiajing, a good friend, has long seen that Yan Song is making progress by retreating, so he forced him to express his opinion, and said impatiently: "Speak up quickly if you have something to say, and let go of fart if you have something to say! Don't show me here! You must have a solution. is not it?"

Yan Song smiled wryly and said: "Is there a way, I do have a little bit. But... it seems to be against the law."

"Whether it is illegal or not, I have the final say." In order to avoid the tragedy of Yan Song resigning and being forced to work overtime himself, Jiajing showed domineering, staring at his eyes and poking his neck: "Ai Qing might as well say it first."

Yan Song told Jiajing about his plan to immigrate to North America and Australia, and said frankly: "Nowadays, the disaster is serious. Although I, Ming, tried my best to produce food in the south, the distant water cannot save the nearby fire. The population is seriously overpopulated and the food is seriously insufficient. If things go on like this, large-scale famine and starvation are unavoidable. In order to avoid the tragedy of millions of refugees and thousands of miles of red land, and to avoid harm to the Ming Dynasty, I implore the emperor to agree to the overpopulation of Henan and Shandong. Some farmers from provinces such as Shaanxi and Shanxi migrated abroad to emigrate. One is to let them go to foreign countries to cultivate land, which can alleviate the contradiction of our country's large population and small land, and increase food supply. The two can reduce some mouths to eat and relieve our food pressure. The three can also be regarded as expanding the territory for the country (bdbb)."

Jiajing's face changed when he heard this.

After Yan Song's many routines, Jiajing's head at this time is much more enlightened than before.In the past, Jiajing also knew that Yan Song had been sneaking around, transporting prisoners to the colony, and he turned a blind eye to it, but taking this as a policy and secretly doing it in the past are two different things.

This may involve the Daming Jiangshan Sheji.

Jiajing's face was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "The disaster situation in my Ming Dynasty has really reached such a dire situation? If you don't divert the people, will there be refugees?"

Refugees are malignant tumors of ancient feudal dynasties. Once they appear, the fate of the country will come to an end.

As a prince from the lower classes, Jiajing is very aware of the harm to the refugees.

Refugees are farmers who have no food and can only go out collectively to escape famine.

The refugees are like locusts. Wherever they pass, no grass will grow, and they will eat up everything that can be eaten. Even places that were not affected by the disaster will become severely affected areas after the refugees suffer.The locals who had been eaten up had no choice but to become refugees and wander together.

In history, countless glorious dynasties were all overthrown by refugees.

At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, the Chimei Uprising broke out among the refugees, Wang Mang OVER.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Yellow Turban Uprising broke out among the refugees, and the Three Kingdoms came.

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the Wagang Uprising broke out among the refugees, and then dragons and snakes rose to land.

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the Huangchao Uprising broke out among the refugees, and the prosperous Tang Dynasty ended.

In history, the most powerful peasant uprising was of course Li Zicheng in the late Ming Dynasty.It all shows the demise of the dynasty and the hand of the Qing Dynasty. In fact, it was clearly stated in the Kangxi imperial edict of the Qing Dynasty. Before we entered the customs from the northeast, Beijing had already been breached by King Li Chuang. Your Emperor Chongzhen had already hanged himself from Meishan Mountain. Daming Death is not caused by our wild boar skin.The post should be carried by Li Zicheng, the postal courier.

In fact, before Li Zicheng succeeded, he had already been defeated by the Ming court N times (N30). Whether it was Sun Chuanting or Lu Xiangsheng, whether it was Wu Sangui or Hong Chengchou, he was beaten all over the ground looking for teeth and running around everywhere, but the reason why he was able to fight repeatedly Repeated defeats, repeated defeats and repeated battles, isn't it because there were too many refugees in the last years of the Ming Dynasty?

No matter how badly this guy is beaten, he has the tenacious vitality of Xiaoqiang. As long as he runs to a group of refugees naked, he raises his arms and shouts: "If you don't follow King Chuang, you will be killed by the Ming court! Go find something to eat!"

Then King Li Chuang was resurrected with full blood on the spot.

As long as there is glory, ah bah, it is eaten, he is the king.

Chapter 1772 Discussion on "Immigration" [3]

When Jiajing thought of the tragic situation of millions of refugees and thousands of miles of desolate land, he became terrified.

But he still has some doubts about sending people abroad.

After all, the motto engraved on the pillar of this thing is "Say mercy, say benevolence, say - dare not be the first in the world".

Hundreds of thousands and millions of people are sent abroad and colonized overseas. No emperor has done this kind of thing since ancient times, right?

What can I do?

Jiajing was also a little embarrassed when he thought of this.

It is one thing to trust Yan Song, but another to support Yan Song in doing things.

"How about this, Aiqing will write a brief summary of this matter, and the cabinet will make it known to the world. Allow the people of the world, scholars, gentry, farmers and businessmen to discuss government affairs openly. Express opinions in newspapers, and three days later, they will be held in Qianqing Palace Great court meeting!" Jiajing said in a deep voice, "Huang Jin, go deliver the decree!"

With the prevalence of Ming newspapers and magazines, even Emperor Jiajing began to pay attention to it.

Although Jiajing is a dictatorial emperor who likes authoritarian power, under Yan Song's several remonstrances, Jiajing also allows the people to express their opinions in newspapers and magazines on major state affairs that have not yet been decided and need to be debated. A gesture of humility.

Let them say whatever they want to say.

I don't read newspapers anyway...
