What is the Ming Dynasty?

The Ming Dynasty is a country.

So, what kind of country was the Ming Dynasty?

She is a man who started with the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors as the beginning of history, inheriting the land of China since the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, Xia, Shang, Zhou, Spring and Autumn, Warring States, Qin, Han, Three Kingdoms, Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Sui, Tang, Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, Song,

Many unified dynasties in Yuan Dynasty and a few far-reaching cultural unified countries.

She is mainly based on the Han people, but she also tolerate multi-ethnic countries such as Zhuang, Meng, Hui, Miao, Yi, Yao, Zang, Jurchen, Uyghur and other ethnic minorities.

She is the only orthodox regime on the current land of China!

"Bang!"

After reading this first paragraph, even in the very simple and plain language, Jiang Yueguang felt as if he was enlightened and slapped his thighs excitedly.

His face flushed and he said excitedly: "I am worthy of being the Emperor. His words are better than reading for decades!"

On the other hand, Gao Hongtu also wrote a few simple words at the beginning of the article.

His old face was also red with excitement, "I pity that although we scholars have always thought that the Ming Dynasty was orthodox, they could not explain the orthodox law thoroughly. At most, it was to say that Emperor Taizu "expelled the Tartars and restored China".

It is said that the Ming Dynasty inherited the system of the Song and Yuan dynasties, and carried forward the past and opened up the future.

However, the Emperor's article has brought the orthodox nature of our Ming Dynasty to the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, and has included all ethnic groups in the name of our Ming Dynasty rule. Although it is not as domineering as the Qin Emperor and Han Wu, it is so dignified and even more kingly!”

Jiang Yueguang pointed out the third paragraph of the article and said, "Although the Emperor is an immortal, he is like observing the history of my mortal world, and is extremely clear.

Look at the division of various dynasties from the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors to the Song and Yuan dynasties, historians of all dynasties can be said to be incomparable to them. In this way, even the Taishigong is hard to match!"

Gao Hongtu sighed again: "The late emperor has used people throughout his life and has made countless mistakes in doing things. However, when he broke into the thief's siege, he married the emperor to the emperor, which was an unprecedented wise and decisive move. With this matter, the late emperor can be worthy of me.

The Ming Dynasty’s first emperors!”

"Shh~"

Jiang Yueguang made a gesture of silence, looked outside, and then whispered: "It is better not to say this about the merits and demerits of the late emperor--the idea of ​​the Emperor's article is really good, you and me

Keep reading.”

Gao Hongtu nodded.

The two continued to read and found that Hao Guangming mainly used this article to shape the new concept of "Ming Dynasty", aiming to allow the Han people and other people of all ethnic groups within the historical ruling area of ​​the Ming Dynasty to clearly understand the identity of the people of the Ming Dynasty.

Even the Qing barbarians were described as internal rebellious forces by the article.

This is the same as the usual perception of the monarchs and ministers of the Ming Dynasty - the Qing Dynasty originated from Jiannu, and Jiannu was originally one of the Jurchens of Liaodong tribes and was a tribe ruled by the Ming Dynasty.

However, this article by Emperor Guangming quotes another very vivid, simple and easy-to-understand metaphor—

The article says that the Ming Dynasty is like a big family, and the Han people are the eldest son or the eldest brother of this big family.

Not only did he work hard and tiring for the development and growth of this big family, but he also needed to educate his brothers and sisters, and to deal with the tiger, leopard, jackals and wolves around him who were eyeing this big family.

Among the brothers and sisters, some obedient directors knew to help the elder brother share housework and even deal with enemies outside together, such as some ethnic minority chieftains in Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan.

But some young brothers not only do not listen to education, but often cause trouble for their families. They even take advantage of their old age and illness to slash their elder brother, eat their flesh and blood to strengthen themselves, and first split from the big family.

Then he saw that the eldest brother was almost ill, so he rushed to the eldest brother's room and wanted to replace him.

Such behavior is no different from being ungrateful!

That's right, you are talking about, the Jianzhou Jurchens!

"Hahaha," Jiang Yueguang laughed happily, "It seems that the Emperor is a true immortal. He actually scolded the Jianzhou Jurchen as an ungrateful wolf at the end of the article. Although his words were a little vulgar, it was very satisfying!"

Gao Hongtu also smiled and said, "I am lucky to read this article, and you and I will make a comeback."

"You can't drink alcohol in the duty room, so you and I will use tea instead of the bar."

After saying that, Jiang Yueguang picked up the teacup and smiled and respected Gao Hongtu from afar.

Unlike scholars and officials, the businessmen are most concerned about when they see the Ming Pao, which also occupies one page of the business page.

Look, in a restaurant, many businessmen are holding newspapers to discuss the content of the business page.

"This newspaper actually explained the reformed tax system so simple and easy to understand. So we are not afraid of those tax collectors being deceived and blackmailed."

"Haha, look at what you said. The person in charge of the Ministry of Finance is the old master Ma. It is said that he supported the pseudo-emperor, but now he has entered the cabinet, he is still considered guilty.

Therefore, he did not dare to make any mistakes in doing things for the court, for fear of being caught and impeached. The Ministry of Finance, which is specialized in collecting commercial taxes, was chaired by Mr. Ma. Who dares to think about taxes?"

Another laughed and said, "I want to see, those corrupt officials are still afraid of today. I heard that the blood of the corrupt officials in front of the Meridian Gate has not been wiped clean yet."

"We have to thank the emperor." A fat businessman smiled, "The emperor ordered the provinces under his rule to stabilize, and there were fewer and fewer bandits, so our business is better.

Although this tax law is much more severe and cannot evade taxes, the normal tax payment costs much less than before.

As long as we don’t feel bad in our hearts like the previous group of grain merchants and do business that is unconscience-free, we can make money safely and live comfortably."

Another businessman wearing glasses said: "The benefits that are brought to our merchants today are more than these. The factories that are run inside and outside Nanjing City provide us with a lot of opportunities to make money.

Look, isn’t it said in this newspaper today? The watch factory will launch the first batch of watches tomorrow. As long as we can find a way to buy a batch, wouldn’t it be easy to make money?”

A young businessman heard this and said, "I know this clock. After all, in the past month, some government offices have been used in the past month, and even a bell tower has been built in the city. But what about this match and soap?

Can two items be sold well?”

"Is my little brother ignorant?" a middle-aged businessman smiled, "As far as I know, some places are used to washing clothes with soap. This soap has the word "soap", which is probably similar to that of the pancreas, and is used for washing clothes.

.

As for matches, as the name suggests, they are mostly similar to fire sickle and fire snatch, and should be something that leads to fire.

In addition, it is said that these new things are all made by the law learned from the fairy world today, and the things they created must be better used than the similar things we have.

So, is it worth mentioning whether these two things are easy to sell? I’m afraid you can’t find a way to buy them, or you don’t have enough capital, and you can only watch others make money.”

Finally, someone took the newspaper and said, "Look, this official factory is doing publicity in the Daming Pao. Can we do the same? As far as I know, the Beijing News can publish product news.

This Ming Dynasty newspaper was so popular as soon as it was released today. If our products were listed above, wouldn’t it be easy to become famous and even be sought after by the people?”

"But this Ming Dynasty newspaper was specially handled by orders, and Liu Rushi has now become an official. Can we merchants occupy the newspaper and magazine layout?"

"Who has any relationship with Liu Rushi or Qian Muzhai? Let's ask someone to ask me if I can tell."

“···”

“Wait!”

The merchants of all sizes were having a lot of talk, but they heard the sound of a grove, but the storyteller invited by the restaurant to come to the stage.

Although the merchants were very talkative, they still looked at the storyteller's wooden platform because the restaurant invited Liu Mazi, a famous storyteller in Nanjing.

This person is said to have been a fugitive, but because he has no evidence and has been long, the government has not pursued him.

His name is Liu Yuchun and his name is Jingting. He was called Liu Mazi only because he was disfigured to escape from pursuit in his early years.

After Liu Mazi attracted everyone's attention, she bowed to the restaurant and smiled and said, "Everyone, today Liu borrowed flowers to offer Buddha, so I will talk about this "Da Ming Pao" that the Prince of Shu was fascinated for three days.

A martial arts story that you have to finish even if you don’t sleep for three nights is called “The Legend of the Condor Heroes”!”
