my days with tyrants

The spectacular scene of more than 1000 people playing the board collectively announced Lao Zhu's final verdict.

It also opened up the wrath of the southern gentry.

Of course, if they are angry, they can be angry. They have been angry with Zhu Yuanzhang for 30 years, and Lao Zhu doesn't care about their anger. Lao Zhu just wants to let them understand that even though he is old...

Your grandpa is still your grandpa.

As for Liu Sanwu, he actually died in the prison the next day.

"Song Zhongzhen didn't use torture. He is over 80 years old. If you use a little punishment at this age, he will die immediately. Song Zhong is not stupid. It would be very troublesome to torture him to death. After all, he is also a famous official. Let him sit by the side and watch Zhang Xin and others torture. No one thought that he was fine at first, but died the next day. Song Zhong suspected that he had already taken some medicine in advance, after all, at his age Yes, not to mention what kind of medicine he took, even if he took the wrong thing, he would die easily.

But this is not easy to check.

As long as it is not those highly poisonous things, it is difficult to find anything even after autopsy.

In short, it is now said that he was tortured to death by Jin Yiwei.

And said it was ordered by Yunxi.

Said that Yunxi had always wanted to kill him because he was Teacher Yunwen, and this time he just took this opportunity to partner with you, wronged him for protecting Nanfang Juzi, and sent him to prison for Song Zhong to kill.

It's vivid, even how the two of you conspired, comparable to Qin Hui and his wife. "

said the little princess.

"He sprayed me and the emperor's grandson with death!"

Yang Feng said.

"But it's still the same problem. As long as my father doesn't change the emperor and grandson, then their efforts will be in vain. No matter how hard they try, it's useless even if all the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River support Yun Wen. It doesn't count if they say it, and this will only make people happy." It made my father even more unwilling to change."

"What if they confirm that it's impossible for your father to be replaced?"

"rebel?"

The little princess smiled.

"Behind Yunxi is Lan Yu and others, what can a group of literati do?
They dared to rebel, and Sapphire would die of laughter.

Finally, I can rob money and rob women like before. "

She said.

Yang Feng stroked her dog's head and smiled without saying a word...

Now is not the past. The confrontation in Shanxi has proved that if the localities fight against the imperial court, they are fully capable of doing it together. The popularity of new firearms has skyrocketed the value of civilian force. He had to dodge a quick-fire gun.What the southern gentry can do is not just a rapid-fire gun. Shanxi folks can master new-style artillery casting and matchlock gun manufacturing in a short period of time, so how long will it take the southern gentry?

The best steel industry in Ming Dynasty is in Suzhou, Fujian, not Shanxi.

Su Steel Construction Iron.

In the middle of the Ming Dynasty, Sugang moved to Wuhu.

But Jiantie was the most expensive type of iron until the end of Ming Dynasty.

The largest iron smelting base is in Jiangxi. Of the thirteen government-run iron smelting stations in the country, Jiangxi has three of them, and more than one-fifth of the government-run production is there.

The largest non-governmental organization is in Guangdong.

Not to mention the population density, developed economy and abundant food in the south, it can be said that as long as the southern gentry can form an alliance to support Zhu Yunqi, he is really hopeful.The other main reason is that he has no choice, as long as his grandfather dies, his best result is to be imprisoned by the high wall in Fengyang until he dies.

As long as there is a glimmer of hope, he will fight for it.

However, Liu Sanwu and others may not be purely for the sake of safeguarding the interests of Confucian scholars. It is likely that the confrontation in Shanxi made them see the possibility of local confrontation with the imperial court.They are also using Zhu Yunqi. After all, this kind of thing needs a banner, so they have spared no effort to gild Zhu Yunqi over the years to create his image of a Confucian moral model.

The purpose is to use him when necessary.

Interest!
But by fighting against the imperial court, Shanxi won the opening of industry and commerce for itself.

Why can't the southern provinces do it?

Don't they want to?
Zhu Yuanzhang is still unwilling to completely let go of overseas trade. Don't they want to make a fortune?The franchise of tea in various places is still strong. Don't they want to let the gentry get rich like Shanxi?
And banking.

Don't they want to liberalize the banking industry?

They are not stupid, how happy Yang Feng has been playing these years, why can't they play, isn't it because Zhu Yuanzhang can restrict them but not Yang Feng?If there are no restrictions on them, wouldn't they know how to open banks, factories, or mines?So they are waiting, waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang to die, and then supporting the emperor under their own control.

Zhu Yunxi can't.

Although he also encourages industry and commerce, the problem is that he has a group of generals behind him.

He will be a strong emperor.

Among other things, he will definitely not let go of the banking industry.

Overseas trade, he is most likely to be government-run, even if it is not government-run, he is partnering with Yang Feng, playing the banking model, Yang Feng monopolizes, but most of the profits go to the court.

Therefore, a weak emperor is needed, and a grandson who can be influenced by gentry.

These guys have a big conspiracy!
Liu Sanwu is not important, he is just pushed to die, anyway, more than 80 don't care about death, as long as death is worthwhile, but if this is the case, Zhu Yunqi should already have a team beside him...

"Is there any relationship between Qi Tai, Minister of the Ministry of War, and Zhu Yunqi?"

Yang Feng said suddenly.

He almost forgot that Qi Tai was already Minister of War at this time.

"Qi Tai, I never noticed him."

said the little princess.

"Keep an eye on him. There must be another group of advisers around Zhu Yunxuan. Huang Zicheng and Fang Xiaoru can be sure, but neither of them has real power. They must find someone with real power. Qi Tai is just right. And among the main ministers of the court, The two northerners can be excluded. Zheng Yi and Yan Zhenzhi were not born in the imperial examinations. Confucian scholars may not look up to them, and the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry are useless. The remaining three people are Ru Yu, who is the head of civil servants , but he is an old slicker, and he was not born in the imperial examination. Zhu Yunwen could not believe him. As for Yu Xin, he is from Fengyang, so he is not one of them. The only one left is Qi Tai, who was born in the imperial examination and is a secretary of the Ministry of War Take real power."

The more Yang Feng said, the more he felt Qi Tai was suspicious, not because of the original history, but because if Zhu Yunqi really wanted to seize the throne by force after Zhu Yuanzhang's death, he had to have something to rely on.

Before that, he was King Jin.

Let alone King Jin now, even King Zhou is gone.

Among the other vassal kings, at least for now, no one clearly supports him. Although these vassal kings will definitely not object if he seizes the throne by force, it is hard to say that they support him at present.This time it was obvious that he wanted to rely on the support of the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River, so he had to find someone with this background among the court ministers, and Qi Tai was the most suitable among the main ministers at present.

Born in Lishui, born in the imperial examination, Minister of the Ministry of War...

"The three giants of Jianwen are about to complete their combination!"

Yang Feng said with great interest.

"Could it be that once my father dies, they will really fight?"

The little princess said with some melancholy.

"There is no other choice for this kind of thing. If he doesn't fight hard, he will die. Since his last assassination, there has been no way out."

Yang Feng said.

"Wouldn't it be okay if my father sealed him far away in advance?"

said the little princess.

"Then do you think your other nephew won't worry about him developing his power outside and then making a comeback one day? Even if your father seals him outside, it will be an imperial edict when the emperor's grandson succeeds to the throne. Move him first." Good place, show your generosity, and when he leaves the fief, someone will sue him for committing various crimes on the fief.

And the evidence is solid.

So it was a matter of course that he was abolished, and then sent directly to Fengyang Gaoqiang for reflection. "

Yang Feng said.

This is the inevitable result.

How can there be any family affection in this kind of thing.

It's all torn apart, and in the end it's either you or me. Even if Zhu Yunxi misses some family affection, Lan Yu and others have to urge him to kill Zhu Yunqi.

"It's no wonder the ancients said, may the world not be born into the emperor's family!"

The little princess said sadly.

"Put it down, it's unlucky time. I'm afraid I'm lucky that I was born in the emperor's family when I'm domineering. When the poor are about to starve to death, they also want to say that they don't want to be born into poor ghosts. This kind of thing is normal. Everyone See, the special ones are paid attention to.”

Yang Feng said.

"Uh!"

The little princess smiled awkwardly.

At this time, Chun Ji walked in with Lu Nu...

"The servant has met the master and the princess."

she saluted.

"It's all my own, don't be so polite!"

The little princess said with a big wave.

As if she was already Mrs. Yang, as for the green slave who came to report work, although she was Yang Feng's concubine, she was actually mainly in Liaodong. Last year, she was basically in Huining. After all, she still had to manage the land reclamation team.Last year, Yang Feng's Huining wasteland reclamation business officially started. Zhang Dingbian personally led the old rebels, together with the employees hired by Yang Feng, to build canals in the wasteland area, reclaim farmland, and then plant soybeans.

As for the food needed, in addition to transportation, there is hunting and fishing by oneself, and it is also exchanged with the surrounding Udiha tribe.

Thousands of people were not hungry.

However, the maintenance cost is high, and it is still in a state of serious losses so far.

After all, the food they need is transported to Longquan Mansion by sea, and then transported by land to the upper reaches of the Songhua River for loading and release, and these ships are also one-off, so there must be shipbuilders, so there are virgin forests everywhere , but the cost is not high.

The current soybean yield is indeed not low, with an average yield of more than two hundred catties per mu...

Well, it's actually pretty pathetic.

On the black soil, the yield per mu is two hundred catties.

But the current varieties can reach this output. In fact, the yield of soybeans in the mainland is only about [-] per mu. Even if the best land is used, it is actually less than [-]. On average, it is actually [-] catties. , They can reach an average of [-], which is considered an amazing output.This time Green Slave came here to escort a batch of soybeans. Because the distance is too far, I have been going here since the end of the Chinese New Year, and I have not come here until now. If it is by water, it will be much faster, but the problem is that the soybean harvest has to be It's late autumn, and it will be early winter after the storage is completed. It is estimated that the snow will start to fall.

In this season, it is obviously not an easy task to go from Huining to Longquan Mansion, and you have to transport supplies, so you simply choose the land route to go south. After all, there are post stations and military stores of the Ming army along the land route, and there are wooden tracks to Xinzhou. carriage.

"It's the section from Huining to Longquan Mansion. It's easy going downstream, but it's troublesome going upstream."

Green slave pointed to the map and said.

"It will be easier to lay the wooden rails in Liaodong. Even if the imperial court refuses to lay them, we will pay our own money to lay them all the way to the reclamation area."

Yang Feng said.

The imperial court shop goes to Jilin City, and there is water transportation further down, but their reclamation area is in Wuchang, so this section does need wooden rails.

"Do you still have to pay?"

The little princess lamented.

Indeed, the little soybeans brought back by the Green Slave could not even be sold for one-tenth of the land reclamation team's annual wages, and the biggest gain was the [-] guan that her father rewarded for his happiness.Lao Zhu was really happy. Yang Feng used the soybeans harvested from these distant lands to prove to him that Huining can really reclaim wasteland on a large scale.

Although this is not the first batch, because the military households who were in Ningwei before also grew wheat there.

And the output is not low.

but……

That's what he paid for.

He only delivered food, agricultural tools, seeds, and even winter clothes to the military households in the Qianhu Station in Huining, which was worth ten times the value of the wheat they harvested, and at present, he would be able to settle in Ningzhong. Wei and Longquanwei grow food.The entire Huining commanded six directly subordinate guards, that is, one Han Chinese thousand households plus four Wudiha, Kuwu and other messy thousand households, and the other four relied on transportation.

On the contrary, Whale Triton has a well-developed fishery industry and can deliver some canned sea fish to other guards.

But no matter what, Huining commanded the envoy and was becoming a heavy burden on the court.

So Yang Feng made him very happy when he didn't need to spend money.

As for the money Yang Feng spent...

That's Yang Fenghua's, it's none of his business.

"Not only do I have to pay, but I also have to ask your father to contract the military supplies of the Huiningdu Command and Envoy Division."

Yang Feng said.

He had to forcibly pull Lao Zhu to continue to maintain the command and envoy of Huiningdu.

Otherwise, they really don't want this kind of place, especially now that those tribes have surrendered, and Bei Yuan has long since disappeared.Although there is still the Great Khan Elbek, in fact the Oala tribe holds great power. He is a descendant of Ari Boke. Alibu, who was supported by Wala, was killed by the family...

Brother Ali can rest in peace.

His descendants finally took back the sweat that belonged to him.

God has eyes!
But the problem is that there are four Oirats, who will assist the Great Khan?
So now the four tribes of Oara and the old people of Kublai Khan's family are all fighting.

In this case, Beiyuan was actually completely out of sight of the Ming army, basically in the western part of the Mongolian plateau, so Huining really lost its greatest strategic value, and the name Jurchen disappeared, or it was incorporated into the six guards of the Ming army, Or it's the guards and chieftains one by one.

So Yang Feng had to pull Lao Zhu, don't let him move the six guards because he loves money.

It's best if he contracts.

(I recommend a book "The Grand Alliance of Time Travelers", a website with the same name as UP, a master of popular science time travel and farming technology, I don't know if it can become a new generation of five hundred wastes.)
