I am the king of the dead

However, history still named the palace change in the first month of the eighth year of Jingtai as the change of seizing the door.

The job of sprinkling water and washing the floor is a delicate job, and it is also a job of seeking truth from facts. No matter how strong the words are, they cannot change the facts.

"I can understand the difference." After thinking about it, Zhu Jiancheng replied: "Tang Taizong, as the King of Qin, killed Prince Jiancheng as a life-and-death political struggle for the sake of gaining power; his father killed King Jili because of Jili. The king has sinned deeply, and it is judgment."

"Of course." Hu Ming nodded in satisfaction.

The prince Zhu Jiancheng was not as intelligent as Chong Wang Zhu Jianji or Ji Wang Zhu Jianshen, but the prince was still diligent and studious, and he was very down-to-earth.

For the throne, is talent or education more important?

In Hu's view, it is education.

Is Hu Wei's words sincere, or is it because he is in Tai'an Palace that he speaks so submissively?

Zhu Qiyu didn't care about it at all. After Hu's death, he would be buried in Jinshan Cemetery. Since he didn't plan to return to his roots, he would always talk like this until the day of his death.

Sincerely or not, it doesn't matter.

Zhu Jiancheng has already started to get in touch with the official documents of Ming Dynasty, and tried to understand the game behind these government orders. After reading Yuan Bin's memorial, he thought about it and asked again and again: "Master, if Master is a general of the Muromachi shogunate, how do you deal with the situation? What should Yuan Gongfang, who is raging, do?"

Hu Wei thought for a while and said with a smile: "Sometimes it's better not to do something than to do something."

"It's more important not to do it than to do it?" Zhu Jiancheng asked in surprise, staring at him.

"Yes." Hu Wei thought for a while and said: "In the private gambling house, some people go to the table, some follow the bet, and some watch the fun, ten bets lose ten times, but everyone who goes to the table and bets will lose Miserable."

"Facing Yuan Gongfang's menacing approach, it's like a banker draining the last penny from a gambler's pocket. At this time, what to do is to go to the table, and you will only lose faster. On the contrary, do nothing, or even lose money. It is the best way not to follow the bet."

"As long as you don't go to the table, there will be people who will go to the table, and you will be unlucky in front of you. In many cases, the same is true of political struggles. It is more appropriate to not move than to move."

"Moving is not a kind of stupidity, but often, it is a kind of wisdom."

"For Ashikaga Yoshimasa, under the superficial political structure of the Wa Kingdom, his own power is not very great. The death of some daimyo who threatened the shogunate is beneficial to Ashikaga Yoshimasa."

After Zhu Qiyu listened to Hu Min's remarks outside the window, he had to say that thanks to Master Hu's obedience, if Master Hu didn't have a heart of obedience, he didn't have to end up in person. He only needed to make suggestions, and Zhu Qiyu's difficulty in managing politics would be great. Sudden rise, even difficult to cope with.

After Zhu Jiancheng heard it, he was stunned, and he realized that he could still play like this!

He carefully savored Hu Min's words, and asked with a frown: "But after the civil engineering and natural changes, Mr. Yu did a lot, and he welcomed his father out of the palace to supervise the country, and asked his father to succeed him three times. , seems to be different from what the young master said."

Hu Wei's expression can be described as mixed. He heard that the crown prince mentioned Yu Qian's style of doing things, so he was a little lost and said: "Yu Shaobao is a fighter and a role model for the world. When I was young, I wanted to Becoming such a courtier, in the end, I became what I am now."

Who is not frivolous when young?

Back then, when Hu Wei was a Jinshi and was high-spirited, he also wanted to be a person like Yu Qian, who cultivated himself, governed the country and brought peace to the world, and cleared up the injustices in the world.

Did he do it?He failed, and in the end he became a flatterer among the people.

Hu Wei said with a complex expression: "His Royal Highness, Yu Shaobao is not often seen, so it should not be treated as usual. Most political discussions should exclude people like Yu Shaobao, or discuss it alone."

Yu Qian began to hate Emperor Taizong Wen in the imperial examination, and then Yang Shiqi and others, and even offended Wang Zhen, making himself a mess, trapped in a prison, so much hardship, after hard work, Yu Qian's body The edges and corners are still so sharp.

"It seems that Marquis Wu Qing has been in imperial prison before, and Yu Shaobao has also been in imperial prison." Zhu Jiancheng keenly grasped the key to the truth.

Ming Dynasty's civil and military giants seem to be all talents in the prison department.

What if a Ming emperor finds no one available?Just look for the virtuous from the imperial prison.

Is the Imperial Academy the real place for the Ming Dynasty to cultivate talents?No, it is a prison.

Zhu Qiyu walked into the Wenhua Pavilion and said with a smile: "Cheng'er, Young Master Hu is just self-effacing. This book "Preventive Hygiene and Simple Remedies" must be read. Young Master Hu has countless students and people, and he has great love."

Hu Wei and Zhu Jiancheng rushed to salute.

Zhu Qiyu waved his hand to indicate that there is no need to be too polite. After he sat down, he said, "Do you know how to judge this medical technique? They say that Young Master Hu still admires immortal techniques, which causes warlocks to come and go, and the boudoirs are not cautious, so as to damage the reputation."

"But Master Hu's book made Chen Fuyin bring back to Ryukyu for Daming. When Ryukyu was in trouble against Japan, the king of Ryukyu fled to Daming for refuge. With this book, Chen Fuyin won the title of King of Coconuts in Ryukyu."

"Cheng'er, a servant like Yu Shaobao needs to be capable, loyal, and tactful, and there won't be one in hundreds of years. If you have a servant like Hu Shaoshi to assist you in the future, that's a blessing. "

"Your Majesty's praise, Your Majesty's praise." Hu Wei said in a panic.

Zhu Qiyu smiled and asked back: "Young master Hu said that I was wrong?"

"Your Majesty can't be wrong." Hu Yan said helplessly.

"Then I'm not absurd praise, Young Master Hu deserves this honor." Zhu Qiyu said cheerfully.

"This..." Hu Wei could only shake his head. His Majesty's words blocked him, so he could only admit that he was a pretty good courtier.

There are few courtiers like Yu Shaobao, but are there many like Hu Wei?In fact, not many.

Chapter 823 Official ships and official trade, and then sailing to the West

In this world, all things of glory and shame require qualifications.

In Zhu Qiyu's view, a courtier like Yu Qian cannot be extravagantly expected, and a courtier like Hu Wei is already rare.

Hu Wei has been in the position of Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites for more than forty years. If Hu Wei really wants to do something, he is fully qualified, but he is not. Even his son is also running a cheap business. Be a doctor.

Hu Changxiang's Theory of Animals is a very interesting book, and Zhu Qiyu has also read it. Hu Changxiang's own literary talent, coupled with "My Father of the Minister of Rites", made it very easy to become a Jinshi.

In Zhu Qiyu's view, although Hu Min's life was not as magnanimous as Yu Qian's life, and with a clear conscience, Hu Min was already worthy of Daming and the people of the world.

Zhu Qiyu came forward at this time to let his prince not have too high expectations of his courtiers. Most of the courtiers never let people down when they let people down.

Expectations are too high, and when you fall, you will fall miserably.

"Cheng'er, Young Master Hu is right. At certain times, doing nothing is far more reliable than doing something." Zhu Qiyu looked at Zhu Jiancheng and explained: "There are nine out of ten unsatisfactory things in the world. worse result."

"Does father have any unsatisfactory things?" Zhu Jiancheng asked curiously. As the supreme being of Ming Dynasty, does his father also have unsatisfactory things?

Zhu Qiyu nodded quite accurately, and said with some helplessness: "The power of being an emperor is unlimited, but you have to make good use of this power, and you can't just rely on your own likes and dislikes to do things regardless of the consequences."

Hu Wei knew some of His Majesty's dissatisfaction.

For example, the brothels all over the country until now are just things that His Majesty can't do anything about. Ever since His Majesty noticed the brothels, he has always wanted there to be no prostitutes in this world.

As His Majesty the Emperor of Ming Dynasty with unlimited power, can he ban prostitution as a profession that has existed through the ages?

absolutely okay.

But by doing so, it turned into a bunch of prostitutes, and the rescue became an even worse persecution, and the merciful redemption became an accomplice to evil.

Labor brings freedom, and work brings personality.

For example, the overturned spirit tablet placed on the desk in the imperial study room of the lecture hall.

Hu Yi had noticed the spirit card a long time ago, and he had already guessed what was written on the spirit card. Civil and natural changes are an indelible scar in His Majesty's heart, reminding His Majesty all the time.

However, His Majesty never showed the spirit card to others when he was not fully prepared. It was not until the appearance of the Iron Horse Chidao recently that His Majesty did not hide his hatred for Wala and prepared for the Western Expedition.

The purpose of building the first Chi Road in Daming was not to reach Songjiang Mansion, but to reach Jiayuguan.

Zhu Qiyu leaned on the case and listened to the discussion of politics between Hu Wei and Zhu Jiancheng. This class can only be taught by the prince, and only the prince can get in touch with government affairs so early, get in touch with the filth of the world, and then peel off the filth, see It's crystal clear.

"It is true that only peace can lead to development, and only with development can there be universal justice, and universal justice brings relative justice, and relative justice brings personal freedom, and then this world is the world of the world, peace and development It is the cornerstone of everything." Hu Wei answered Zhu Jiancheng's question.

Zhu Jiancheng asked what is the most important thing to Daming.

Hu Wei asked Zhu Jiancheng to think for himself, and Zhu Jiancheng's answer was stable peace.

Zhu Qiyu immediately said: "Any kind of peace is not obtained by praying. What is prayed for is definitely not peace. You can only pray for endless humiliation. It is all based on the principle of punching and punching. Only punching and punching are called peace." Peace."

Stability and peace, sustainable development, universal justice, and relative justice have brought about personal freedom. Personal freedom represents the rich material wealth of Ming Dynasty, and it can only be realized in the end.

At least for Zhu Qiyu and Zhu Zhanyi, they never regarded Daming as a private property of their old Zhu family. The world is too big, and if it is a private property, it will really be exhausted.

Both Zhu Qiyu and Zhu Zhanqian want to realize the great journey of the people in the world. Otherwise, why would Zhu Zhanqin continue to improve "On Public Morality" and expand the word "public" to all aspects of society, even virtue.

Zhu Qiyu is not denying Hu's point of view, on the contrary, Zhu Qiyu highly agrees with Hu's point of view, he said with a smile: "War is the biggest stumbling block to development."

"For example, at present, the Japanese kingdom is full of swarms, the warring states are fighting each other, the rituals and music are in decline, and even the most basic farming cannot be guaranteed. How to develop? People can only highly rely on others to report to the group for warmth, and then go to rob others. Wealth, barely maintained."

"Wowo girls can only be sold to Ming Dynasty. This is the best ending for them. Otherwise, it's not surprising that they will be made into food in Japan one day."

"But to achieve a stable peace is definitely not a prayer."

Zhu Jiancheng looked thoughtful, and then he said: "Su Xun once said in the Theory of the Six Kingdoms: Cut five cities today, cut ten cities tomorrow, and then have to sleep overnight. Starting to look at the four realms, and the Qin soldiers are coming. Peace Didn’t ask for it, is that the case with father?”

Zhu Qiyu nodded in satisfaction and said, "It's true."

Su Xun's writing of "On the Six Kingdoms" seems to be a discussion on the history of the facts, but in fact he is making use of the topic. Su Xun is not summarizing the reasons and lessons of the disintegration of the Six Kingdoms, but warning Song Ting not to repeat the same mistakes.

At that time, the Song court negotiated peace with Xixia and Liao, and the yearly coins increased year by year. They used bribes to satisfy the insatiable captives, and the result in exchange was disillusionment.

Su Xun's warning was not unfounded. Not long after, Jingkang was in trouble, the two emperors hunted north, and the Northern Song Dynasty was shattered.

Peace is never obtained by prayer, but by struggle and fighting.

"Eliminate all opponents, and Da Ming will be at peace." Zhu Qiyu looked at Zhu Jiancheng and explained peace.

Zhu Jiancheng thought for a moment, and then asked: "The King Jili went to war personally, and finally fell deep in the north, and was killed by his father. It seems that starting a war is not a good way. I don't know the child, so I ask my father to teach me."

Zhu Qiyu was refuted by the child, instead of being angry, he was very pleased. The child did not keep the words in his heart because of his father's majesty, but spoke out.

"About war, you should go to the martial arts hall to study. Some necessary conditions for launching a war must be met, otherwise the result of lightly starting the war will be the fate of King Jili." Zhu Qiyu looked at Hu Wei and asked: "Cheng Cheng My son's homework, can I go to the martial arts hall now?"

"It's not impossible." Hu Yan bowed his head and said.

"Then go and listen. Listen more, watch more and talk less. You are the prince. Any inquiries you may make will be taken as the direction of the future and will be used by interested people. If you have any questions, you can come and ask me and Young Master Hu." Zhu Qiyu He asked Zhu Jiancheng.

Both glory and shame require qualifications, and Zhu Jiancheng, who is the crown prince, is fully qualified for glory and shame, it depends on his own development.

Zhu Qiyu has an absolutely pessimistic attitude towards the death of a person and the death of a person. He is dead when he dies. prevent them from competing.

"The purpose of King Jili's war was not to eliminate his opponents, but to turn internal conflicts into external conflicts to resolve." Zhu Qiyu began to explain the reason for the failure of the civil engineering and natural transformation in the 14th year of Zhengtong, and answered the child's questions.

War has always been an extension of politics, and political manipulation is the reason why King Jili is doomed to fail. It was the voice of opposition, and everyone pointed their finger at Wang Zhen.

In order to alleviate internal conflicts, a personal conquest was launched. The problem of launching a war was to divert the conflicts between the DPRK and China. The final result was defeat and the emperor was captured by the enemy.

War is indeed an extension of politics, but launching a war without any preparation for the sake of political manipulation is an irresponsible evil.

Zhu Qiyu continued: "Wala, Tatar, and Wuliangha tribe, why didn't they dare to go south during the Yongle period, but started frequently disturbing the frontier during the Zhengtong period, and even launched large-scale conquests?"

"At that time, Emperor Wen was eager for them to come, and was worried that they would not be able to find them! But in the Zhengtong period, the Oala, Tatar and other tribes dared to invade the border because they saw the weakness of Ming Dynasty."

"Where are the Oirats now?"

"They are in Samarkand, just here, the Oirats still feel that they have not gone far enough, and want to go to Batu Sarai, because they know that if they still stay in Longting and Lin, I will definitely go into the desert and take them away." Daming is fully capable of sweeping the acupoints in Liting."

Zhu Qiyu briefly explained the political factors for King Xiajili's failure. Political manipulation is the worst reason for launching a war, and it will lead to misfortune.

"My child understands, it's like in the Jingkang period at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, Song Qinzong and Song Huizong fought each other in the capital for power, which finally caused the Great Song Dynasty to miss the good opportunity to help Taiyuan, and finally led to the collapse of the country." Zhu Jiancheng really understood. What his father was saying, instead of dealing with it as usual, perfunctory, and gave an example.

Wanyan Zongwang went south from Gubeikou to occupy Youzhou (now Beijing), and then used leap-frog tactics to move thousands of miles to the city of Kaifeng, and then extorted a sum of money and chose to return to the north and leave.

When Wanyan Zongwang set off, Wanyan Zonghan went south from Datong Mansion and pointed directly at Taiyuan, where he was resolutely resisted by the guard Wang Zhi.

After returning from the north, Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Zonghan joined forces to attack Taiyuan.

Before joining forces, it is the best time to rush to Taiyuan.

Zhong Shidao, the general of King Qin of the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty, said to Song Qinzong, who was enthroned as emperor: If Taiyuan is there, the country will exist, and if Taiyuan dies, the country will perish.

But at that time, Song Qinzong and Song Huizong fought each other in the Kaifeng mansion for power, leaving Wang Ting and other defenders isolated and helpless. After persisting for 250 days, they fought until the city was broken and died.

If Taiyuan is broken, the country will be broken. The Jin army that occupied Taiyuan went all the way south, cutting off the road of the Western Army to serve the king, and finally captured Song Qinzong and Song Huizong, and the Northern Song Dynasty perished.

The result of manipulating politics during war is defeat. War is an absolute zero-sum game, where the winner takes all and the loser gets the dust.

Song Qinzong and Song Huizong, as the emperors of the Central Plains, were given a goat-raising ceremony, and their younger brothers were led by ropes. Under the ice and snow, they were displayed everywhere as spoils of war. The pregnant wife was tied to a horse, bumped for hundreds of miles, and eventually had a miscarriage.

However, as generals such as Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, and Liu Qi rose to fame, and the Southern Song Dynasty continued to win on the battlefield, the treatment of Song Qinzong and Song Huizong became better and better.

Zhu Jiancheng didn't choose to fool his father, he understood it when he understood it, he knew it if he knew it, and he didn't know it if he didn't know it.

"Recently, there is something wrong with the court. The Ministry of Finance approved the ship certificate, and there was a lot of trouble. Has Hu Shangshu heard of it?" Zhu Qiyu asked Hu Wei. His name was not Hu Shaoshi but Hu Shangshu. Obviously, he was asking Politics, not politics.

"Your Majesty, I'm no longer a minister. I'm teaching now, and I occasionally go to Taiyuan Hospital and Xieyuyuan to stay for a while." Hu Yi didn't want to get involved in such trivial matters. He was no longer a minister, he was a young teacher.

Hu Yi didn't understand why his Majesty still didn't let him go even though he had retreated.

Zhu Qiyu's sustainable fishing is the first criterion for employing people. It is an honor and a responsibility to be buried in Jinshan Cemetery after death.

Jin Lian died in office, Wang Zhi didn't retire until he successfully trained Wang Ao, and Hu Wei was almost ninety, still exerting his residual heat.

Is it an honor or a burden and shame for the courtiers to use it until death?It can only be said that a person knows whether drinking water is warm or cold.

"Isn't this about politics?" Zhu Qiyu said with a smile.

It's good to discuss politics, this is clearly asking about politics, participating in politics, and discussing politics!

"Your Majesty gave it, and you want it if you don't want it. If your Majesty doesn't give it, don't even think about it. This is the monarch, the minister, and the court. Because of the turmoil of the ship certificate, it is a bit ignorant of the truth, and it is a little bit of an inch." Hu Wei said helplessly, expounding own point of view.
