Life in Film and Television: Starting from the Jinshui Bridge

Chapter 341 Meeting Sun Chuanting
Well, think about it, Lu Xiangsheng is not dead yet, he is fighting with Zhang Xianzhong, this meeting should also be on the way back;
Sun Chuanting was not dead either. According to Guo Mingyun, he was angry and imprisoned in the sky prison by the inspector Zhu You.

These two are great talents, they can fight when they are on horseback, and they can calm the people when they are off. As long as these two people are subdued, there will be members of the Standing Committee of the Parliament.

That's right, Liu Meng didn't intend to follow the old system of the Ming Dynasty at all. He had to go to the morning court every day, and the daily affairs were left to the elected members of the Nine Standing Councils for discussion.

The most important thing is that I only need to put forward the general direction of development, focus on building a clean government for officials with one hand, and grasp military power with the other, and I don't believe that those officials can play tricks under my nose.

As for the CEO of the Independent Commission Against Corruption, there was nothing to hesitate, and Shen Lian was in charge. As for the intelligence agency, the National Security Bureau would be responsible for internal and external intelligence security work.

While Liu Meng was sleeping soundly, a voice came from outside the palace gate, which immediately woke up Liu Meng, who had keen senses, and Liu Meng also knew from the voice that it was Zhu Yu who had come.

By the time he got dressed, got out of the bedroom and came to the side hall, Auntie Zhu had already directed the two maids and eunuchs to place the breakfast in the food box on the table.

After Li Zicheng's fuss, there were no eunuchs and maids left in the huge palace, only the eunuchs and maids who followed Zhu Yuxi were left.

Seeing Liu Meng coming out, Aunt Zhu hurriedly greeted him eagerly, and quickly ordered the eunuch to fetch water for Liu Meng's washing, and waited for Liu Meng to wash up.

After finishing their busy work, Auntie Zhu and Liu Meng sat opposite each other and had breakfast.

After finishing all these tasks, Liu Meng planned to go to the prison first to meet Sun Chuanting.

Calculating the time, this year is 1639, which is the 12th year of Chongzhen. At this time, Sun Chuanting should be 47 years old, seven years older than Lu Xiangsheng.

According to the evaluation of Sun Chuanting in history, he was cunning, resourceful, and decisive, and he was the chief hero who conscripted the Peasant Army. Some historical experts came up with the saying that "Chuan Ting died and Ming court died".

With just this sentence, we can see how much Sun Chuanting has contributed to the Ming court.

It's a pity that Zhu Youjian believed in the slander and put Sun Chuanting in prison. He didn't make good use of this capable official, which led to the early demise of the Ming court.

It also left a useful minister for Liu Meng, so that Liu Meng would not be unable to play with government affairs.

Although Liu Meng has trained a lot of ruling talents, they are still young people after all. It is okay to be a magistrate in one place, but it is not so interesting to be a cabinet member.

Liu Meng, who was thinking about his own thoughts, came to the sky prison, and all he saw were soldiers from the First Army guarding the sky prison.

Those former jailers all changed their clothes and hid at home when the city was broken.

Under the leadership of the soldiers, Liu Meng came outside Sun Chuanting's cell door.

Sun Chuanting also saw Liu Meng, but he thanked Liu Meng's men for saving him.

If the first army hadn't occupied the prison, he would have been starved to death.

Seeing Liu Meng appear, Sun Chuanting stood up from the ground. Thanks to the soldiers of the First Army, they found clothes for him in the cold weather so that he would not freeze to death.

The cell door opened, Liu Meng stepped in, bowed his hands to Sun Chuanting and said:
"I am Liu Meng from Dongjiang. I took this capital back from Li Zicheng. The whole family of the former Emperor Chongzhen died, and only Princess Changping, Zhu Yuxi, is left, and now she is my fiancée!
Let me tell you!I am here to recruit you, I will be the emperor, of course I will continue to use the name of Daming!Will Bo Yagong come out and help me? "

Hearing this, Sun Chuanting's eyes flashed with astonishment, apparently he did not expect Liu Meng to speak so confidently about seizing power and usurping the throne.

He couldn't help but carefully looked at Liu Menglai in front of him. His first impression was that he was young and brave, decisive and decisive.

Thinking about Liu Meng's biographical story again, I also know that Liu Meng treated the people kindly and was quite capable of governing the world.

After Liu Meng finished speaking, seeing that Sun Chuanting didn't answer him immediately, he knew that he was thinking quietly and didn't bother him. He waved to the soldiers who came with him to set up the seats, drinks and dishes, and poured Sun Chuanting a glass of white wine first, then poured himself After having a drink, he said:
"Master Sun might as well sit down, let's chat while eating!"

Sun Chuanting heard the words, looked at Liu Meng again in surprise, then sat down, fixed his eyes on Liu Meng and asked:

"I want to know, when did you start calculating?"

Hearing this, Liu Meng chuckled and said in his heart:

Does he really deserve to be a truly talented minister?From his own words, he guessed that he had long thought of changing the dynasty!
In fact, when he never met Aimee Zhu again, Liu Meng really wanted to change the dynasty, but after meeting Aimee Zhu, he also had the idea of ​​continuing the name of Daming.

Without him, since Qin Shihuang unified the six kingdoms, counting more than a dozen dynasties in detail, only the Ming Dynasty established the ancestral motto of "no marriage, no compensation, no land cut, no tribute, the emperor guards the gate, and the king dies in the country" .

Stronger than the Han Dynasty, there were women getting married, but the Ming Dynasty did not violate this ancestral precept no matter which emperor it was, capable or incompetent.

Liu Meng himself also highly respects this national policy!

After thinking so much, Liu Meng said:
"I've had this plan since the death of Shuai Mao! But I didn't start a rebellion, because, I know, sooner or later, the Ming Dynasty will perish due to party disputes and corruption! What do you think, Mr. Boya?"

Sun Chuanting heard the words, took a deep breath, unceremoniously picked up the wine glass on the table, raised his head and drank the wine in the glass, regardless of the spicy taste of the wine, and continued to ask:

"So? How do you govern the world and let the people live a good life?"

When Liu Meng heard this, he knew that Sun Chuanting's heart was moving. He continued to pour wine for Sun Chuanting with a smile, and stretched out his hand to signal Sun Chuanting not to just drink, but to eat more vegetables before continuing:
"Since Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, he put forward the view that 'the king is the boat, the people are the water, the water can carry the boat, and it can also overturn the boat'. Simply put, it is: the people are the foundation of a country. That's it!
However, the emperors of all dynasties regarded this as a joke, as it was in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and so was Yuan Meng, who was invincible all over the mainland, and even more so in the Great Ming Dynasty brought down by Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang!
In other words, is Li Zicheng really that powerful?Is his military command ability as good as you and Lu Xiangsheng?Not necessarily?Then why he can make a huge empire. . .What about destruction?

In the final analysis, the Ming court lost the hearts of the people! "

Hearing this, Sun Chuanting's eyes flashed brightly, he really didn't expect Liu Meng to see these things so clearly!

These things are the result of his meditation for so many days after Li Zicheng captured the capital.

That's why he didn't hang himself after learning that the Ming Dynasty was over.
