The new year is approaching, and the 15th year of Wanli is coming to an end.

Although the entire city of Beijing is freezing cold, it is still very lively because of the approaching atmosphere of the New Year.In particular, the appearance of Xishan honeycomb briquettes has enabled many families who could not afford charcoal for the winter to get some warmth this winter.

The [-] refugees were all taken away by Xishan Huangzhuang, and Yi Wang Yongji of Shuntian Prefecture finally completed the task assigned by the cabinet and Emperor Wanli.

What is even more gratifying is that more than half of the 5 taels of silver allocated by Emperor Wanli is still left, but this money cannot be returned to Emperor Wanli.

Under the repeated request of Song Xun, the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, the remaining money was sent to the Treasury of the Ministry of Households with a swipe of the cabinet pen, and then there was a picture of hundreds of officials enjoying themselves.

The Ministry of Households repaid some of the owed salaries of Beijing officials with the money, and then distributed unwritten year-end bonuses to various important yamen in the capital.For a time, the name of Song Shangshu's selflessness was widely praised among officials of all sizes in the capital.All the officials in the capital praised Song Xun for his noble character and fairness as an official.

And all of this seems to be ignorant in the Forbidden City.Emperor Wanli did not mention to the cabinet and the Ministry of Households the internal money he allocated to help the refugees.It seems that the money was not from Emperor Wanli.

But Zhu Changluo knew the reason a long time ago. Emperor Wanli knew that the money was not used up, so he arranged for Zhang Cheng to go to the cabinet to inquire, but he was sternly returned by the cabinet veterans.Emperor Wanli had no choice but to sulk and complain, saying that he would never lend money to the cabinet again and so on.

But is this possible?

When the cabinet has no money, it will still miss him.

In the twelfth lunar month, Zhu Changluo still did not change his habit of reading and reading memorials in the Prison of Rites.

And just today, Dongchang sent a secret report in a hurry.

The content of the secret report is extremely brief: "Former Jizhou General Soldier, Zuo Dudu, Shaobao Qi Jiguang died of illness on December 15, [-]th year of Wanli."

Seeing these few words, Zhu Changluo couldn't calm down for a long time, and a generation of famous anti-Japanese generals died in depression like this.

Qi Jiguang was a famous general from the Jiajing period to the Wanli period. He made great military exploits throughout his life. From south to north, there are his heroic backs guarding the country's frontiers.

His greatest achievement is to expel the Japanese pirates from invading the southeast coast.Countless battles were fought for more than ten years, and the vicious Japanese pirates were completely driven out of the territory of Ming Dynasty.

During this period, the tactics and tactics of the Ming army were also innovated, which greatly improved the fighting ability of the Ming army, and also invented new tactics and weapons such as mandarin duck formations and wolf traps.In addition, the cumbersome Frang machine artillery was improved, and a portable artillery called a tiger squatting gun was produced.This kind of artillery is a bit similar to modern mortars, but its power is still much worse than that of mortars, and it is also much larger and heavier.However, this tiger crouching cannon was definitely a field weapon that should not be underestimated at the time!
However, such a famous general cannot escape the political strife among civil servants in the end.

Qi Jiguang succeeded and Zhang Juzheng, and lost also Zhang Juzheng.

Zhang Juzheng was Qi Jiguang's staunch supporter behind him. With Zhang Juzheng's support, Qi Jiguang swept across the north and south, from fighting against the Japanese along the southeast coast to guarding the northern border.He proved his worth with illustrious military exploits.

Unfortunately, all this changed in the tenth year of Wanli.

In the tenth year of Wanli, a generation of power minister Zhang Juzheng died suddenly.As Zhang Juzheng's hardcore, Qi Jiguang naturally won't have any good results.

Soon, Zhang Dingsi took the opportunity to say that Qi Jiguang could not be placed in the north, so Qi Jiguang was transferred to Guangdong by the court.But political struggles have always been cruel, and will not be diverted by individual will, so this matter has not ended like this, and political pursuits still exist.

In the 13th year of Wanli, Qi Jiguang was impeached by another Shangshu, and Qi Jiguang was demoted again. This time he was directly dismissed from office and returned to his hometown.

Until, in September of this year, a censor of the Inspectorate once appealed to Emperor Wanli, hoping that Qi Jiguang could be used.

However, because Emperor Wanli's hatred for Zhang Juzheng did not dissipate, and Qi Jiguang was also a staunch supporter of Zhang Juzheng, Emperor Wanli not only did not accept the suggestion of Shangshu, but also fined Shangshu's censor for three months. Punishment!
Now, Qi Jiguang died in depression, and he never waited for the day when the court recovered him.

In the final analysis, this is a problem with the officialdom system of the Ming Dynasty. Civil servants and military officials have always been in an ecological chain of contempt and despise.

In addition to having a sense of superiority over military officials, civil servants have consistently maintained balance and stability in all aspects as the premise of governance.

If the matter gets to the point of using force, it is a sign of failure to them.Therefore, they reject the actions of military attaches in their bones, and believe that the role of military attaches is to hinder their standards of governing the country.

Moreover, civil servants also have an unbreakable ridiculous concept, that is, from the state to the individual, power cannot be regarded as authority.

Not only that, even economic development is not enough.If there are any special economic interests in a region, they will be suppressed, not promoted.Because they think that this country should be based on agriculture and business should be a lowly occupation.The scholar-bureaucrats disdain it.

At the same time, they and their families have merged a large number of lands and monopolized businesses. Behind all super commercial firms, there are always their looming shadows.

They also unite to resist the state's taxation on business, and also enjoy the state's tax exemption policy for them.According to their sanctimonious etiquette, they always think of enlightenment to complete the great rule and long-term stability of the world.They've basically locked up the country to death.

The imperial court has no money, so it can only make money by raising land taxes, and the officials will also take the opportunity to exploit the poor people in the fish and meat village.

Rather than saying that the Ming Dynasty died of natural disasters, civil strife, or foreign invasion.

It's better to say: The world has been suffering for a long time!

The common people will not rebel if they have a way to survive, and they will not blindly follow foreign races if they have a way to survive.To put it bluntly, all of this was forced by these sanctimonious hypocrites!

Therefore, even the small imperial court of the Nanming Dynasty, which still had half of the country in the end, still fell apart in the midst of this long-term oppression and resistance!Because they never changed their exploitative nature.

They also like to look for a sense of superiority beyond ordinary people from the perspective of morality, such as the distribution of wealth, and the riots of disaster victims in some places. In their view, these are all moral issues, and they are all due to the inferiority of villains who commit chaos.

Few of them have ever really considered why the disaster victims rioted?Why is there a war on the border?
Moreover, as long as there are those who dare to change, they will definitely rush forward, block them, and even kill them!Therefore, since ancient times, reform has never been accomplished by wooing a few people with lip service. Reform is to be an enemy of the "people of the world" who have vested interests!
But even so!Zhu Changluo didn't intend to back down.He still has a kind of courage in his heart, "Although there are tens of thousands of people, I will go!"

Even in the future, blood will flow into rivers!Even if the world collapses in the future!Even if the family dies in the future!Zhu Changluo will not hesitate!

He must split and remove these mountains imprisoned on this country, so that this country can continue to stand on the top of the world!
