The ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty?

What is the ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty? Over the years, the ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty has been corrupted too much by successive emperors. From the vassal kings leading troops to defend the central government to the confinement of the vassal kings in the palace and prohibiting them from making friends with officials, especially military generals, to civil engineering.

After Yu Qian seized power during the Battle of Bao, the Governor's Office of the Fifth Army was emptied out, and he had to live according to the mood of the Ministry of War. No matter how good the military attaches were, they had to rely on civilian officials.

You said that when they seized power, did they say that the ancestral system was untouchable?

I definitely didn’t say that for them, when the ancestral system is beneficial, they just don’t violate it. When it’s not beneficial, they just stick to the old rules and change them! Anyway, in one sentence, it’s up to him to say whether they want to fart or not.

Zhu Guoqiang himself couldn't tell whether the Ming Dynasty's ancestral system was good or not, but one thing that is certain is that "restoring the ancestral system" was a banner in his hands.

No matter how great Chongzhen is, he is not as good as Emperor Gao. No matter how upright the orthodoxy is, he is not as good as Emperor Gao.

Since Emperor Gao is orthodox, let’s pull Emperor Gao out now and ask Emperor Gao to endorse him.

"If they are allowed to force each other in the name of orthodoxy, then the prince's political prestige will be gone. In the future, even if the prince uses military power to force him to seize the throne, in the eyes of the outside world, he will not get the throne rightly! The prince

My achievements are unparalleled, how can you be willing to accept such a reputation?"

"Using Emperor Gao is the most important bargaining chip we can hold. Only by raising the banner of Emperor Gao can the Crown Prince gain the name of orthodoxy. With this name, people in the world will not think that the Crown Prince is a legitimate person."

Rebellious minister..."

"The Crown Prince belongs to a distant vassal. Even if the emperor dies, there are still princes, the King of Fu clan, and other close vassals. No matter how it turns, the Crown Prince will never get his turn. But... orthodox! The Crown Prince can easily kill Emperor Gao.

The purpose of taking it out is to restore the ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty. This ancestral system is not only the vassal king leading the army, but also various other things that have been destroyed... From the perspective of Emperor Taizu Gao, there is no vassal lineage.

, there is only one, that is, the bloodline of the Gao Emperor. The prince restores the ancestral system of the Gao Emperor, and he is of the Gao Emperor's bloodline. Naturally, he has to do his duty and should inherit the great unification! Orthodoxy! Restoring the ancestral system of the Gao Emperor is the greatest orthodoxy!"

"We may ask the feudal lord to lead the army, but we have no choice. We have to choose the lesser of two evils!"

"The name may not seem to be very important, but in fact, the name is more important than anything else. With this name, no one can question the Crown Prince! The Crown Prince is not an inheritance, nor a usurpation of the throne, but reconstruction, restoration, and restoration of Emperor Gao

China is to rebuild China, while the prince is to restore the Ming Dynasty and rebuild the country, so who dares to question the so-called orthodoxy?"

"..."

Their analysis cannot be said to be unreasonable.

Moreover, Zhu Guoqiang also knew that he would never tolerate others questioning his "orthodoxy". He did not have the time and energy to spend his whole life fighting for an "orthodoxy" like Zhu Di, let alone tolerate all this happening.

For him, there are only two outcomes, either kill someone or use a knife to suppress the questioning voice, but he does not want to do this, at least he does not intend to kill people for a "name".

Another option is to create a "righteousness" and an "orthodoxy". Why did Zhu Yuanzhang win the most upright country?

He expelled the Tartars and restored China!

And what about yourself?

As a descendant of Emperor Taizu, even if it is a fake, as long as we grasp a great righteousness, we will definitely be able to create an orthodoxy. As long as we have this orthodoxy, even if it is only in name, it is still orthodox, an orthodoxy that cannot be questioned.

However, before going to Nanjing, there are other things to do - such as the training and reorganization of the 200,000 Zuo Jiajun and the 200,000 rogue surrender troops, as well as local control.

Why did Li Zicheng lose the world? To put it bluntly, he did not manage the territory well and consolidate the place. Zhu Guoqiang would never make similar mistakes.

Therefore, as soon as Wuchang was captured here, people were immediately sent to all parts of Huguang - the officials were still in their original posts, asking them to appease the refugees and civilians within the territory and to clear out the local local remnants of rogue bandits.

This made all the local officials sigh a sigh of relief. It seemed that the prince was quite easy to get along with.

Since the news of Zuo Liangyu being executed in the army came out, some officials in Huguang took the initiative to show their kindness to him, and some took the initiative to join him. This is naturally a good thing. Zhu Guoqiang will never be enemies with all officials, as long as they

If they abide by the law and do their jobs conscientiously, their future will be bright!

Concerned about the prince's "hateful" temper, the officials did their best to do their jobs and introduced policies to appease the refugees. For a time, Huguang, which had been plagued by rogue soldiers for several years, finally calmed down.

…

Just after the 17th year of Chongzhen's reign, with the pacification of the rogue bandits, ships from all over the originally deserted rivers once again appeared, and Wuchang, which had been devastated by the war, finally showed some vitality.

That day, a small boat sailed under Wuchang City. When the boat entered Wuchang, the old man dressed as a businessman on the boat couldn't help but sigh.

"I never thought that in just a few months' time, I would be able to see this prosperous scene again!"

He pointed to the Shuiyi Pier under Wuchang City and said happily to Wang Shikuan beside him,

"Look, there are so many ships here. They've almost caught up with them."

Following the master, Wang Shikuan stood at the bow of the ship. He looked up and saw a dense number of ships docked near the pier. He said with a smile.

"Yes, the bandits have been put down, and everyone dares to come out to do business!"

"Thanks to the great general, the world is finally at peace."

The captain stroked his beard and said with a sigh.

"If the imperial court had asked the general to come over last year when the general submitted the letter, how could Zhang Tianshou have been able to kill all the way to Changsha and kill so many people!"

The captain's words made the master nod his head in agreement. He was so blocked in his heart! If the general could have come here a few months earlier, how could he be in this situation now?

At first, he was the dignified governor of Huguang. Although Wuchang was lost, he was stationed in Yuanzhou and was regarded as an ambassador to the border area. But now it is better, he can only hide his name and sneak back to his hometown secretly.

Since I left Yuanzhou, the past few months of wandering around have been so hard!

But what really worries him?

It’s life!

According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, anyone who escapes from battle must be beheaded!

Didn't he just run away from the battle? What if he was discovered? He thought to himself and gave instructions to the boatman.

"Shipman, don't spend the night in Wuchang. Let's go directly to the Han River."

"My boss, it's getting dark now. Let's rest for the night in Wuchang!"

The captain's words made his face change slightly, and the guard beside him said softly when he saw this.

"Master, just relax. After passing Wuchang, the boat can reach the Han River, and then go all the way upstream to return to your hometown in Shaanxi. You can't miss anything overnight."

As the master's personal guard, Wang Shikuan certainly knew what the master was thinking, so he comforted him. Just as he finished speaking, suddenly, some officers and soldiers jumped on the boat.

"Where did you come from?"

The leading captain asked while sizing up the man in front of him. This man didn't look like a businessman.

"Returning to the military master, our master is a businessman from Henan. Last year, he was blocked in Changsha because of the rogue bandits. When he heard that the general had suppressed the bandits, he hired a boat to return home. This is all thanks to the general!

"

Wang Shikuan bent down and replied.

"I didn't ask you anything, so why ask him?"

The leading officer asked as he looked at the man in front of him.

"Are you from Henan?"

"Yes, yes, I am from Xichuan, Henan."

"People from Xichuan...how do you pronounce these two characters?"

Looking at the piece of paper that the officers and soldiers took out, and looking at the word "circle" on the paper, he said casually.

"Ququ..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the man immediately drew a knife and put it on Wang Jukui's neck.

"Come on, take him down!"

In an instant, Wang Jukui was so frightened that he was sweating profusely and his mouth was dry. Everyone on the boat was stunned.

"Guan, Guan, what do you mean?"

"Ququ, you are good Ququ. Only people in Shaanxi pronounce it like this? Businessman, I think you are a Western thief!"

Wang Jukui, whose face turned pale after hearing this, wanted to cry but had no tears.

"The long sky, how can you be inferior to me?"

Then he said.
Chapter completed!
