Daming: Old Zhu, we agreed not to rush!

Time flies, the years are like a shuttle.

In the fourth year of Hongwu, Li Shanchang finally retired, and Hu Weiyong still came to power.

The wheel of history is rolling forward, and there are always some things that Su Jing cannot change.

Even though Su Jing knew very well that after Hu Weiyong became the prime minister of the Ming Dynasty, he would become a powerful minister and a traitor, but for the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang at this moment, Hu Weiyong was the best choice.

After all, there is still nothing wrong with Hu Weiyong now.

Su Jing did not stop him. You can speak out to save people, but you cannot speak out about the future when punishing a person.

In other words, it's because of Zhiyi.

In the autumn of the same year, Su Jing and Zhiyi officially got married, and hundreds of officials came to congratulate them, which was very lively.

Zhu Yuanzhang's family was no exception, and there were piles of various congratulatory gifts.

For Su Jing, the meaning of this wedding is far greater than it seems.

Because this indicates that Su Jing has truly transformed from a time traveler into a Ming Dynasty person.

He was no longer alone.

Or to put it more clearly, before marrying Zhiyi, Su Jing regarded herself as a 'game player'.

A player who simply experiences and enjoys everything in Daming.

Whether it is money or status, for Su Jing, they are just rewards obtained during the game.

Even with students like Zhu Biao and Zhu Feng, he didn't really peel them off.

Until she met Zhiyi and got married.

Su Jing no longer regards herself as a 'player', but as a real person of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, for some things, he is no longer as free and casual as before.

Having ties is equivalent to putting shackles on oneself.

In the fifth year of Hongwu's reign, Su Jing's son was born and named Su Cheng. In the same year, Zhu Yuanzhang launched the second Northern Expedition, led by Xu Da, Li Wenzhong, and Feng Sheng. The troops were divided into three groups.

Under Su Jing's suggestion, the three armies always covered each other and advanced, and were not seduced by the illusion of the Yuan army's defeat and went deep alone.

In this battle, all three sides were victorious, and the living space of the remnants of the Yuan army in the north was once again compressed.

The victory of this Northern Expedition reduced the danger in the north of the Ming Dynasty by more than half, and also completely changed the direction of history.

In the same year, Zhu Yuanzhang promulgated the Military Selection Law, which is the method for the selection and replacement of military officials.

Similarly, under Su Jing's strong suggestion, the rule of hereditary succession was changed to the son inheriting the official position of the father, and he had to be demoted one level.

As soon as this method came out, it was opposed by a large number of military attachés.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang withstood the pressure and implemented the new rules of the martial arts selection law.

In the sixth year of Hongwu, the founding father of the Ming Dynasty relied on his merits to break the law, and abuses of rural residents continued to occur. Zhu Yuanzhang could not bear it anymore, so he ordered the Ministry of Works to make an iron plaque and cast it with the order of Duke Shen Jie.

This matter has nothing to do with Su Jing, but it is also named Su Jing by those who are interested.

As a result, the resentment of the officials towards Su Jing grew day by day.

In the seventh year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang announced his march to the southwest, and the chieftain tribes in the southwest resisted. However, the two Northern Expeditions of the Ming Dynasty were successful and the national power increased greatly. Two years later, the southwest was pacified and the Zhiyi tribe was rebuilt.

In the same year, Su Jing's daughter was born and named Su Yu.

In the eighth year of Hongwu's reign, Japanese pirate invasions increased day by day, and the maritime crises of the Ming Dynasty continued. Zhu Yuanzhang angrily sent troops, but the effect was mediocre and no effective results were achieved.

In the same year, the Shipbuilding Department was established to specialize in the manufacture of advanced ships. However, because Su Jing was still in the southwest, the actual progress was slow.

In the ninth year of Hongwu, the Ming Dynasty's economy continued to develop, the population increased, business gradually began to prosper, and the number of merchants increased significantly.

The currency exchange methods of money, grain, and gold and silver were no longer suitable for this era. Zhu Yuanzhang issued the "Ming Dynasty Treasure Notes".

In the tenth year of Hongwu, Deng Yu was ordered to beg for food from Tubo. Zhu Yuanzhang did not like the eunuchs discussing politics, so he immediately banned the eunuchs from participating in politics. In the same year, Prince Zhu Biao officially began to manage the affairs of the government, and all minor government affairs were handled by Zhu Biao. Su Jing entered the prince's mansion to seek help for him.

In the eleventh year of Hongwu's reign, King Zhu Fang of Qin came to vassal Xi'an, and King Zhu Fan of Jin came to vassal too far away. Before leaving the capital, he came to say goodbye to Su Jing.

In the same year, Prince Zhu Biao re-inventoryed the number of people in the world's fields, and found that countless people were underreported. Zhu Biaoyan said that the fields were the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, and the people's population was the rain and dew of the Ming Dynasty. Those who resisted and concealed it would be sentenced to treason. As a result, thousands of officials were executed in various places.

Su Jing was in the Prince's Mansion, and some people still said that the matter was related to Ren Yuanbo, and all the officials were very resentful towards Su Jing.

In the twelfth year of Hongwu's reign, Prime Minister Hu Weiyong's control over Zhongshu Province gradually deepened, and the whole court seemed to have become Hu Weiyong's monologue.

In the same year, Liu Bowen died in his hometown Qingtian. Because of Su Jing, he lived four more years.

In the thirteenth year of Hongwu's reign, all officials came together and said that Renyuan Bo Su Jing had deceived the prince and brought trouble to the court, and asked Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang to have him executed.

Zhu Yuanzhang was furious, Su Jing was imprisoned, and twelve courtiers were executed.

A month later, Hu Weiyong's rebellion was discovered, and all the officials had their homes confiscated and their families exterminated. Su Jing was released from prison, and then returned to Lishui County with her family to recuperate.

In the same year, Zhu Di conquered Beiping.

In the fifteenth year of Hongwu's reign, Queen Ma was seriously ill, and Su Jing went to the palace for diagnosis and treatment. She thought it was an incurable disease, but Su Jing found that the symptoms were very similar to smallpox, so she was vaccinated with cowpox.

After half a month of danger, Queen Ma made a miraculous recovery, and Su Jing was also quite shocked.

Zhu Yuanzhang was overjoyed and promoted Uncle Renyuan to the title of Marquis Renyuan. He was rewarded with countless gold and silver and tens of thousands of acres of land.

In the 20th year of Hongwu, Prince Zhu Biao once again inventoried the population of the Ming Dynasty, and Su Jing took the lead in this matter.

In the 21st year of Hongwu's reign, Zhu Biao promulgated a new law on land and acres. Any form of buying and selling of acres in the world was no longer allowed. Dukes and officials at all levels had upper limits on the amount of land they could own, and the land owned by the royal family's children was no exception.

Su Jing, the Marquis of Renyuan, returned all his 10,000 hectares of land to the imperial court, and officials from all over the country followed suit.

However, the difficulty of this matter is just the beginning.

In the twenty-fifth year of Hongwu's reign, Prince Zhu Biao inspected Shaanxi. Su Jing specially asked to accompany him. He found poison in the food and drink. They were all dead soldiers and could not be searched.

Zhu Yuanzhang was furious, and all the people killed the ten tribes.

Zhu Biao's new law was also abolished.

In the twenty-sixth year of Hongwu's reign, Su Jing was assassinated. Fortunately, she was well protected and escaped death.

In the twenty-seventh year of Hongwu's reign, Su Jing was assassinated again. He was stabbed in his left arm and had to rest for three months.

In the twenty-eighth year of Hongwu, Su Yu, a woman from Su Jing, was abducted and was found later in March. Zhu Yuanzhang was furious and killed a group of people.

In the 29th year of Hongwu, Su Jing's son Su Cheng was hit by a frightened carriage on the streets of the capital and almost died.

In the 30th year of Hongwu, Su Jing officially came out of the army, was awarded the title of Imperial Master of the Ming Dynasty, and participated in the politics of the Ming Dynasty.

At this point, Su Jing truly embarked on the road of no return, a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood.

In the residence of Marquis Renyuan, Su Jing, who was already in her fifties, had some gray hair and beard.

It's not that his health is bad, but that there are too many things to worry about.

Prince Zhu Biao had just left, and what he did was the repealed new land law.

Su Jing couldn't help but think of Zhang Juzheng, the first assistant of the later Ming Dynasty.

His journey was much more difficult than Su Jing's.

The people he has to deal with are the people who helped him get to this position.

He put himself on the opposite side of everyone, but still walked on without looking back.

Thinking of this, Su Jing couldn't help but smile and said: "Zhang Taiyue, maybe you can only be the second best to Su Jing."
