I really don't want to be emperor at the end of Ming Dynasty

If it were a plot in a film and television drama, Cheng Shijie should have been successfully reversed by Yang Yunniang. After all, Cheng Shijie was tricked and Yang Yuniang drugged Cheng Shijie's teacup.

But the problem is that movies and TV dramas are basically deceptive plots. As the deputy office director of Hansteel Group, Cheng Shijie is exposed to a lot of similar things. As a deputy office director, he is a very key figure. If he wants to go through the back door and find connections, Cheng Shijie is a very key figure.

But the problem is, Cheng Shijie is a very principled person. He knows when to do things, and he also knows what money should be taken and what money should not be taken. When Cheng Shijie cannot be bribed, the best way is to drag Cheng Shijie into the trap. , once Cheng Shijie is pulled into the water, he can only become a puppet controlled by others.

However, Cheng Shijie has never had any problems. There are many people who want to trick Cheng Shijie into seducing him, but no one can succeed. That's because Cheng Shijie has never been drunk at the dinner table. As for drinking the other party's spiked wine, this This kind of thing is not avoidable, but Cheng Shijie has his own way of dealing with it.

No matter how powerful the drug is, it cannot be instantaneous like what is shown in movies and TV shows. Every drug has a process. When he feels something is wrong, Cheng Shijie usually calls the police. One of his classmates is at the Hanhai City Public Security Bureau. Served as director of the Anti-Pornography and Anti-Illegal Affairs Office.

Of course, in this time and space, Cheng Shijie also had a way to deal with it. He pressed his watch gently, and within a short time, his personal guard commander Hou Si appeared in the palace.

When Yang Yuniang saw Hou Si appear, she immediately understood what Cheng Shijie meant, but she said with a straight face: "Get out!"

"Vice Minister Yang, please understand that humble positions are your responsibilities!"

Hou Si waved his hand, and four sturdy palace ladies appeared behind him. Yang Yunniang's skills were actually pretty good. Let alone ordinary palace ladies, even men might not be Yang Yunniang's opponent.

The four strong palace ladies were no ordinary people. They immediately took the quilt, swarmed up, wrapped Yang Yunniang in the quilt, and carried Yang Yunniang out of the palace.

Many people think that after taking the poison, they may feel an ant-like itching.Many people will feel flushed, even feel hot, and want to take off their clothes. The biggest problem is that when they see the opposite sex, they will realize that they are the person they like, or they are simply someone who needs love and want to have sex immediately.

In fact, the general phenomenon is that after taking it, the body will have a fever, the brain will be unclear, the sexual desire may change, and the temperament may change. In fact, the best antidote is ice water, not to mention that Yang Yuniang cannot use particularly poisonous medicine on Cheng Shijie.

This process will be very uncomfortable, but Cheng Shijie is familiar with the road and has been prepared for it. As for the corpses that were picked up, most of them were psychedelic drugs. If someone really invented a magical drug, he would have made a fortune long ago.

Cheng Shijie lay in the cold bath, his body slowly returning to normal. He actually had his own principles. In this era, why he didn't touch other women was not because he didn't want to, but because he was unwilling.

The real reason for his unwillingness is not that he is a saint, but because the consequences are too difficult to deal with. So far, Cheng Shijie has a total of sixteen women in name. In addition to Zhu Weiti who is married, there are also Yang Yuniang and Jin Qiaoer who have been following him. , Yang Waner and so on.

Once Cheng Shijie has a relationship with any of them, it means that Cheng Shijie favors the others. As the saying goes, the King of Chu has such a thin waist that many people in the palace starve to death.

Once this happens, it will inevitably lead to a struggle among the women in his harem. If Yang Yuniang is touched, why not Jin Qiaoer, Zhu Weiti, and his sixteen women all represent the power groups behind them. Yang Yuniang is currently It is the financial system of Ning Haijun Group, Jin Qiaoer represents the Dengzhou Weihe Textile Department, Zhu Weiti represents the Zhu Ming royal family, and Yang Waner represents the medical department...

Of course, there is also the Nanyang overseas Chinese family. They are different from the women in the harem of the Ming Dynasty. They are from the common people and have no power behind them. However, the women around Cheng Shijie all represent powerful forces and mountains behind them. Cheng Shijie either has a bowl of Shui Duanping, either this force must be eradicated, otherwise the women's struggle is actually no less cruel than the war between men.

Just like Emperor Tianqi, he had three sons and three daughters. It was not that he was infertile. However, the problem was that the oldest of these six children only lived two and a half years old.

Most of the Wanli Emperor's eight sons and ten daughters died in infancy, especially among the eight sons, only Zhu Changluo and Prince Fu Zhu Changxun lived to adulthood, and the other six sons all died in infancy.

As the royal family of the Ming Dynasty, they enjoy the best medical resources in the country. Why is the death rate of the royal family several times higher than that of the common people?This has to make people reflect on the cruelty of struggle.

This problem is not easy to solve. If we really want to solve it, we can only wait for Xiang Hui to come over. Otherwise, the cruelty of this war will be implicated in children, which Cheng Shijie cannot accept.

Because only when Xiang Hui comes, and Xiang Hui has a son and a daughter, Cheng Jialong and Cheng Jiayue, in this case, no one can shake Xiang Hui's status, and the harem struggle can be controlled within a controllable range.

Cheng Shijie is absolutely certain that once he has a relationship with Yang Yunniang, it will not necessarily be a good thing for Yang Yunniang. Maybe, open and secret arrows will attack Yang Yunniang. Don't look at Yang Yuniang, with the support of Cheng Shijie, established Ning Haijun's financial rate, but People from the finance department still have certain abilities in the financial field. When it comes to political struggle, how can those kids defeat those old guys?
As for Jin Qiaoer and Zhu Weiti, the same is true. If Cheng Shijie was more than ten years younger and had no experience working in Hansteel Group, then he would definitely be like other stallion novels, enjoying himself and not thinking about Shu.

……

Yang Yunniang was lying on the bed. There were four strong palace maids standing in the room. These four palace maids lowered their heads and did not dare to look at Yang Yuniang's cannibalistic eyes.

"I remember you!"

Yang Yunniang really couldn't figure out why Cheng Shijie was like this. The duck was flying. No, everything should be ready, but it fell short.

An older palace maid said: "Vice Minister Yang, the king's order, the servants have to obey, whether you want to kill or scrape..."

The palace maid did not dare to say any more harsh words, and knelt down in front of Yang Yunniang with a thud: "Please show mercy to Vice Minister Yang, and I will repay you in the next life as a bull and a horse!"

Yang Yuniang looked at the four palace ladies and asked, "When did you follow the king?"

"This...since the king's wedding!"

"I understand!"

Early the next morning, Cheng Shijie looked at Yang Yunniang with red eyes, as if she hadn't slept well all night.

Of course, Yang Yunniang didn't sleep well. She almost lay with her eyes open all night.

She was very anxious. After all, she was getting older. There were several concubines belonging to Cheng Shijie who were less than 15 years old. How could she compete with them in the future?

Yang Yunniang said gloomily: "If the king doesn't like Yunniang, give Yunniang three feet of white silk or a glass of poisonous wine!"

"What are you talking about?"

Cheng Shijie sighed and said: "Give me some time, there are some things that are not convenient to talk about!"

"Are you afraid of sister Xiang?"

"This... also counts!"

"When will sister Xiang be back?"

"I don't know either, as soon as possible!" Cheng Shijie and Yang Yuniang started working after breakfast.

Although spring plowing is not possible now, for the people of Gyeonggi Province, they still need to be busy. Due to the problem of drought and lack of rain, they can only plant new crops on a large scale, especially potatoes, sweet potatoes and corn. These three agricultural operations all like drought and dislike drought. water.Once there is excessive rain, corn production will be reduced on a large scale.

Once the weather is too cold, the production of sweet potatoes and potatoes will also decrease. These new crops are different from traditional crops. People need to be trained to learn how to grow them.

The damage caused by the war to Gyeonggi Province is unimaginable. Because of this earth-shattering war, they were unable to plant winter wheat all winter. It is definitely too late to replant now. Therefore, various state and county governments organized people to learn to plant sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn and other crops. .

Repairing damaged houses, roads, and transporting food from the south were enough to survive this difficult year.The expectations of the people turned into pressure from the imperial court. On this day, tens of thousands of people in the capital gathered at Chengtianmen, and Cheng Shijie personally went to the Temple of Heaven to hold a ceremony to worship the heaven.

After the ceremony, he went to Chengtianmen and solemnly announced in front of tens of thousands of people: "Appoint Lu Xiang to be promoted to the governor of Anbei, command the army, and launch the final blow against Jiannu!"

As soon as he finished speaking, cheers like a mountain roaring and a tsunami rang out from Chengtian Gate: "Long live! Long live!"

Ning Haijun's third and fourth brigades, as well as the remnants of the Tianxiong Army, the Liaoxi Army and the Northern Expedition Army, were reorganized into the Ming Royal Army's No. 19 Brigade and No. 20 Brigade. The strength of these four brigades was subordinate to the Governor of Anbei. Mansion.

Their four brigades, with more than [-] troops, will train in Beijing for four months. At the end of March of the first year of reform, they will launch the Northern Expedition again.
This time, Lu Xiangsheng was in charge of the Northern Expedition. This time, the Ming army still had to fight with more and less, to overwhelm others with force, to sweep across the north with an overwhelming force and drive Jiannu to the horizon!
When generals such as Lu Xiangshengzu Da Bi, Lei Shisheng, and Chen Yongfu faced Cheng Shijie as the regent, Lu Xiangsheng also felt a little emotional. Last time, Lu Xiangsheng and Cheng Shijie were ministers in the same palace, but now they are separated.

"Meet the Regent!"

"You are free!"

Cheng Shijie looked at the generals and said: "You may have received the kindness of Emperor Chongzhen, but what I want to say is that being mean, unkind, and extremely suspicious is probably a common problem among most emperors. Which minister they doubt is absolutely It’s not about whether the other party has such a motive, but whether the other party has the ability to challenge the majesty of the imperial power, which is a capital crime in itself. I, Cheng Shijie, am a capital crime, Lu Jiandou, and so are you!"

Lu Xiangsheng did not refute Cheng Shijie's words, because Emperor Chongzhen began to shame Lu Xiangsheng when Cheng Shijie's people had just arrived at Sanshen Mountain. Lu Xiangsheng could actually see that. Emperor Chongzhen came to Lu Xiangsheng and killed Zhu Chunchen on the spot, beheading him. The generals who were promoted were full of resentment for completely ignoring Emperor Chongzhen.

Especially from the moment when Lu Xiangsheng escorted Emperor Chongzhen to Liaodong, Emperor Chongzhen felt that he had become a puppet. Even if he could end up like Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, even if his ancestors had blessed him, he did not hesitate to scold Lu Xiangsheng and Cheng Shijie.

Of course, Emperor Chongzhen actually wanted to tell Lu Xiangsheng with facts that Cheng Shijie had usurped the throne, and Lu Xiangsheng would not end well, because Lu Xiangsheng was not a direct descendant of Cheng Shijie, and even if he was a direct descendant of Cheng Shijie, he would not end well.

In Emperor Chongzhen's view, a qualified emperor must be mean, ungrateful, and ruthless. As long as he had enough great achievements, ministers who were unjustly killed could only consider themselves unlucky.

Just like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he was a mean and ungrateful person. As a puppet emperor, he was suppressed by the Queen Mother Dou and his mother, the Queen Mother.You must know that Empress Dowager Dou Yifang is a very shrewd and skillful woman. It can be said that she will use any means to achieve her goals!She was Lu Pheasant's maid. Faced with the powerful Empress Dowager Dou, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had no choice.

Until Liu Che Wei Zifu, he replaced Chen Ajiao with Wei Zifu. Wei Zifu and Wei Qing were loyal to Liu Che, but the Xiongnu were defeated, and Wei Zifu and the Wei family in their later years were useless. A witchcraft The disaster, Wei Zifu and the Wei family were wiped out.

It's just a pity that Cheng Shijie is not an emperor. He never thought about making the Cheng family last forever, but wanted to help the Ming Dynasty change the way people in the world live.

Cheng Shijie knew that to become a leader, he must unify his thoughts. There are two ways to unify his thoughts, either to kill all dissidents or to persuade the other party.The leader of a company is not an emperor. He cannot kill people at every turn, but needs to convince the other party. This is what Xiao Ma has done very successfully, and it is also what he is best at.

Of course Cheng Shijie is not Brother Xiao Ma. He does not have Brother Xiao Ma's intelligence. However, during this period, generals such as Zu Dabi, Lu Xiangsheng, Lei Shisheng, and Chen Yongfu were in Liaodong. They saw with their own eyes the Liaodong governed by Cheng Shijie, despite the weather in Liaodong. It's cold, but the city in Liaodong is full of enthusiasm. Factories are working overtime to get production equipment and materials.

There are no beggars or refugees in Liaodong, although there are also poor people. No matter how poor they are, eating is not a problem. Compared with Liaodong, Daming is another world.

What makes Lu Xiangsheng feel most incredible is that the abundance of materials in Liaodong has exceeded his imagination. Cheng Shijie drew a grand blueprint for Lu Xiangsheng and others, and also drew a big pie.

In a passionate speech, Cheng Shijie said seriously: "Some things must change. The emperor is very pitiful. No one can trust him, no matter how loyal he is, just because he is the emperor!"

Lu Xiangsheng was agitated and asked: "Prince Regent, what do you want?"

"Don't worry, I will never be like Cao Cao or Wang Mang. This kind of situation where one person is aloof and makes everyone in the world pay a heavy price for his existence year after year. It's time to change!"

Cheng Shijie smiled faintly and said: "You have been in Liaodong for a long time. You have seen what you should see and discovered what you should discover. Liaodong can still live well even without an emperor. I think the people of the world can also It’s time to change your way of living…”

Lu Xiangsheng's heart moved: "Indeed, the people of this world should change their way of life!"

"From now on, there will be no more Tianxiong Army, no Liaoxi Army, Guan Ning Army, and other chaotic armies. All the armies are only the Ming Royal Army and the Ming Royal Navy!"

Lu Xiangsheng thought in his heart that Cheng Shijie's so-called change of life was actually to create another system to replace the current system of the Ming Dynasty. As Lu Xiangsheng, who was familiar with classics and history, he knew very well that whether it was the Wuhu who invaded the Central Plains during the Wuhu period, The Sixteen Kingdoms are still Mongolia, Jin, and Liao. The reason why they can exist historically is not because of their strong soldiers and horses, but because they have established a complete system.

A simple yet effective system. (As for the system itself, I won’t go into details here. Those who are interested can go to Baidu or Zhihu), and the system established by Cheng Shijie is indeed a more advanced system than the Ming Dynasty.

In fact, no system is static. If you have a non-reform mentality, you will be eliminated.

Just like the Manchu and Qing Dynasties, many people don't like it, but the problem is that if the Manchu and Qing Dynasties didn't continue to change, they wouldn't have survived that long. From the earliest Eight Banners flag government system, they inherited the Ming Dynasty's cabinet system, and then set up their own military aircraft department, starting from the military aircraft department. The office was changed to the Cabinet Prime Minister's Office and so on.

What the Ming Dynasty lacked was successful reforms, and the same was true for the Song Dynasty. If Wang Anshi's reforms were successful, the Song Dynasty could at least continue its national destiny for another hundred years.

Lu Xiangsheng hesitated for a moment: "Your Majesty, I heard that you have killed many people. Do you want to kill all the officials?"

"For the treacherous things they have done, it would not be unjust to kill them all!"

Cheng Shijie said: "To be a king, you only need to please hundreds of millions of people. To please those guys who are in high positions but don't do anything is simply stupid! Kill them all, and then choose talented people to use them. Don't worry about not being able to create something new. A peaceful and prosperous age!”

Cheng Shijie's thinking has always been so simple and crude, and he regards the saying "force cannot solve problems, but it can solve the people who create problems" as truth.

Whoever created the big problem will be solved.

In this way, the problem will gradually decrease until there is no problem at all. (End of chapter)
