Zhang Shize was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that his wise and powerful grandfather would actually see the problem in this way. He would actually talk about the court's problems so frankly, directly, and even outright.
He secretly realized that these words could only be said to his direct descendants in a secret room.
Zhang Weixian looked at the dumbfounded Zhang Shize and said with a smile: "This is how things are in this world. There are many people in this world who complicate simple problems to deceive the world and steal their fame, confuse all living beings, confuse concepts, and cover up the truth to make profits for themselves.
people."
"Actually, there are only two kinds of people, or two groups, in the world. One creates wealth, and the other consumes wealth. Apart from that, there is essentially no third group or class."
"Sages divide people into three, six or nine classes, different strata, and let the superiors and the inferiors keep their duties. In fact, there are people in these strata who create wealth and consume wealth. This statement is inherently false. That's why Zhuangzi said that the sage will not die.
, there are more thieves."
"No matter what origin and status this person is in, no matter what class he is in, he must be one of these two kinds of people. Since Xia Qi established his family in the world, in every dynasty, if the people who create wealth are more than the people who consume wealth,
If there are more people, it means a prosperous age. On the contrary, if there are more people consuming wealth than creating wealth, then it will lead to decline. This has been the case for three thousand years."
"This world is a cycle of chaos and chaos, with no beginning or end. Since ancient times, there has been no dynasty that has remained unchanged for three hundred years. The problem of Ming Dynasty today is that those who create wealth can no longer support those who consume wealth.
.There is no solution to this problem, otherwise there would not be twenty history books.”
"I'm afraid that the wealth of my Zhang family is coming to an end. Shi Ze, my grandpa is getting old and has been doing everything in his power for forty years. It's time to enjoy what you should enjoy and what you should bear. I have no regrets, it's just that I have suffered for you.
"
The old man stretched out his withered hand and stroked Zhang Shize's head, his true feelings revealed for a moment.
"Grandpa, Shize thinks the Ming Dynasty is not so pessimistic." Zhang Shize doesn't understand why his grandfather, who has always been as stable as a rock, is so sad and pessimistic.
"The situation in Ming Dynasty is much more serious than you know. You have to remember that in the days to come, learn more from Yang Fan and accumulate strength so that you can survive in the troubled times in the future. There are too many people in Ming Dynasty. Your Majesty does not have that ability.
If it can solve the problems of so many people, it will only be a matter of time before it collapses."
Zhang Weixian turned to Zhang Zhiji and said, "I have written to the emperor to resign from the title of British Duke due to illness, so that you can inherit it in advance. I will retire early so that His Majesty can rest assured. Shize is young, so he will not attract His Majesty's attention so much.
Now, he can safely leave the capital camp to Broad and Broad to take care of it."
Zhang Zhiji hurriedly knelt down and said, "Father, why is this happening? Please step back, my child cannot bear this burden."
"It's because you can't afford it that your Majesty can rest assured. From now on, the British public line will not be as powerful as the Chiang family in the court, so your Majesty will turn around and use Broad to check and balance the Chiang family. This game of chess will survive.
Only by putting the Jiang family on the fire can Shi Ze have a chance to escape His Majesty's suspicion and gain time for development." Zhang Weixian said in a low voice.
Zhang Zhiji was silent. The three generations of emperors, father and son, were all supported by British princes. In any dynasty or generation, this can be regarded as a great achievement. How long will it take for Bujiliu Yong to return?
Now that Wei Eun is gone, the emperor is most worried about the frail old man in front of him.
In his life, he defeated countless opponents. He grew stronger with age and became extremely cunning. If he did not retreat for a day, His Majesty would not be able to sleep. He sent eunuchs to oversee the army to Zhang Shize to support the Chiang family, all of which sent a signal to the British.
male.
"I don't have much time left. It's extremely difficult. The storm is about to come. The struggle between Taichang's family, Donglin, Zheng Lao Niang, Fu Wang's family, and the eunuchs will inevitably come to an end.
In this struggle, the British government must not participate in it, not even a little bit."
Zhang Zhiji and Zhang Shize were thinking.
His Majesty ascended the throne, killed the eunuchs of Wei, and sat firmly on the throne. Then he cleared out all the eunuchs in the upper echelons in the court, and the Qing army in Donglin also went to cleanse the influence of Prince Fu in the local army.
Naturally, it is impossible for the King Fu family to just surrender and not react.
So, the result was tragic, the Jizhou Mutiny.
It swept through more than a dozen state capitals and killed hundreds of thousands of people. The soldiers and horses in Ji Town were reduced to seven or eight, and they almost did not reach the capital to change the world.
That Huang Tengyuan was promoted by King Fu's family in his early years. Others don't know, but the British government knows everything. But they don't know where Tong Jianye came from. They have never found out.
Moreover, as soon as Yuan Chonghuan came to power, he immediately cut off the food and salary of Dongjiang Town. He Kegang led the Longhu Navy of Juehua Island to catch smugglers at sea. He cut off the military salary and food and grass, and also caught smuggling, in order to force Mao Wenlong to a dead end.
Donglin is gradually cutting off the last wings of Madam Zheng.
It is obvious that the struggle between the two sides has become intense.
The palace, imperial court, border towns, and places are all fighting openly and secretly. Even the trend gangs in Bohai and Huanghai, and the Taoist sects in North Zhili and Henan are also fighting. There is no peace in the palace, and there are eunuchs every now and then.
, the palace maids died unexpectedly. Some fell into the water, some accidentally ate poisonous food. The thirteen yamen in the palace underwent a major change of blood, and half of the admirals and leading eunuchs were dismissed.
【In view of the general environment,
Zhang Zhiji said, "Father, after the chaos in Ji Town has been suppressed, Your Majesty probably won't dare to continue the Qing army."
"Then do you think His Majesty won or lost?" Zhang Weixian asked.
Zhang Zhiji thought for a long time and said, "Your Majesty should be considered a winner, but the price is too high. After this incident, Donglin will definitely bloodbath the military attache system in Beizhili. Anyone who has anything to do with King Fu's family will be in bad luck. Moreover,
The goals of disarmament and saving military expenditures have also been achieved.”
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Zhang Shize asked in confusion, "They fought back and forth and lost all my Ming army. Is it worth paying such a high price?"
Zhang Zhiji sneered and said, "An army that doesn't obey his orders and cannot be commanded by himself is of what use. It is still a great threat. If we don't deal with it quickly, will it still be kept for the New Year? Could Yue Fei's army have fought back then?"
, elite or not. In the end, does the emperor care? Qi Jiguang’s army is not the same. The last Jizhou mutiny was not resolved."
Zhang Shize said in horror, "Jizhen has calmed down. Then the next step is for the struggle between Liaozhen and Dongjiang Town to intensify. Donglin uses Yuan Chonghuan to supervise Jiliao and suppresses Mao Wenlong, who was born in the eunuch party, in order to solve the problem of King Fu.
The last foreign aid force of the department."
Zhang Weixian nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that letting him go with Yang Fan was really not in vain.
"Broadside, it's hard to say who will win and who will lose now. The centipede is dead but not stiff. The winner will definitely be decided this year or next. This fight is too dangerous. Our British government must not participate in it," Zhang Weixian said.
.
"Grandpa, now it seems that Dong Lin is very likely to win, so why can't we try to establish a relationship with Dong Lin in advance? It's better to burn the stove than add icing on the cake."
Zhang Weixian sneered and said, "You don't even know who your majesty is. He used Yang Fan to fight Wei Eunuch. After that, Yang Fan went back to his hometown. He used Wang Yingzhi to defeat the Qing army, but Wang Yingzhi was sent to the capital in a prison car and sent to the Imperial Guard.
Prison. Now he is using the hatred between Donglin and King Fu's family to eliminate the power of Mrs. Zheng. If Donglin wins, how will he deal with Donglin, especially the general Yuan Chonghuan."
Zhang Zhiji said, "You have to understand that if you get involved in this matter, you will only be shattered into pieces. You must not get involved."
