Chapter 92: The Ming Dynasty Clan Issue
"Sir, have you said this enough? If there is a problem in the clan, just deal with it!"

After Zhu Yuanzhang's words came out, he frowned and felt a little unhappy inside.

Zhu Yuanzhang's original name was Zhu Chongba. The name Zhu Chongba was not given seriously. Not only Zhu Yuanzhang, but also the names of Zhu Yuanzhang's father and ancestor were not given seriously. In the fourteenth century AD, looking at the entire world at that time, , even looking at ancient and modern times, Zhu Yuanzhang is definitely the most successful person in counterattack, bar none.

It starts with a bowl and ends with a country. There are no two things since ancient times.

However, Lao Zhu, who started from the bottom, also has his limitations.

With deep-rooted ideas of small farmers, Lao Zhu set the minimum salary standard for Ming officials, but set hereditary and high salary standards for his descendants.People in the Ming Dynasty couldn't help but sigh: The kindness of my relatives is indispensable, and it is far more generous than that of previous generations.

And this is undoubtedly the biggest problem.

Of course, Jiang Chen didn't know that it was Lao Zhu who spoke.

Looking at Lao Zhu's words, he couldn't help but sneered.

"How to deal with it? Zhu Youjian said that he was just a waste. Even Zhu Di had a hard time handling it. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had to completely occupy the authority when dealing with clan issues. He also had to deal with it by extending favor orders and winning gold and titles. , can Zhu Youjian solve it? Do you think too highly of him? "

"As for whether it has passed, do you know how big the population of the clan was when the Ming Dynasty reached the later stage?"

"According to the records of "Wuzazu", by the end of Wanli, the clan population of the Ming Dynasty was approximately 20. Among the fiscal revenue of the Ming Dynasty government, royal family and clan expenditures, military expenditures, and administrative expenditures were the three largest."

"This was still the Wanli period, and when it came to the Chongzhen period, the number of people had to be multiplied by ten. With such a large clan population, one could not take the imperial examination, and the other could not engage in business. The bottom class was living a hard life, and the top class was in a state of dissipation and wealth, and the people were busy. Look at those clan clans in the late Ming Dynasty. What have you done? It’s not an exaggeration to even be outraged.”

“Since the enfeoffed vassals in the early Ming Dynasty plundered peasants’ land and enslaved their bodies, they have appeared in various forms in the areas under the jurisdiction of the Ming clan. From the beginning, the peasants refused to pay taxes other than the fixed rent, to refusing to pay rent or serve in the military. Then there were armed resistance, peasant uprisings, soldier mutinies, and workers' strikes. However, all kinds of resistance did not stop the clan's greed, and they still plundered and extorted crazily."

After typing the text, Jiang Chen immediately excerpted some historical records from the Internet and put them in the group.

In the 44th year of Jiajing, the Prince of Yongning "took people to steal property and hurt people"; in the 18th year of Wanli, the Prince of Jingjiang "robbed property and beat civilians." These were just normal, and even more exaggerated scenes were presented to all the Ming emperors.

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but become silent when he saw these contents, and the previous displeasure seemed to disappear.

He indeed valued his children and grandchildren, but being so heartbroken made him not know how to speak.

"If the clan is not resolved, even if the Ming Dynasty is not destroyed by Chongzhen, it will not survive for a few years. Zhu Youjian's solution is very troublesome, and the peasant uprising can be solved just in time. One can vent the public's anger, and the other can clean up the burden. The money saved can be used Come and pay three wages, so as not to cause another mutiny because of three wages."

Jiang Chen spoke without any politeness.

To be honest, if the clan in the late Ming Dynasty said that the poor people were pitiful, then those who were still in the position of vassal kings would undoubtedly be hateful.

All the vassal kings in the late Ming Dynasty should be killed.

But in the late Ming Dynasty, if one of the two vassal kings was killed, it would definitely slip through the net.

Jiang Chen said that there was no psychological burden at all.

However, looking at Jiang Chen's words, even with those lines of words, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Di, Zhu Houcong, and Zhu Youjian couldn't help but fall silent.

After all, the feudal dynasty is a family, and it is not an easy choice for them to abandon their family.

Even if he saw so many evil deeds in his own family, he would choose to turn a blind eye most of the time.fair and just.

That's only for people at the bottom. For the royal family, this word is actually not suitable.

Even if the Ming Dynasty had not wanted to subjugate the country, I am afraid that the three emperors would not care too much about this.

Needless to say, Zhu Yuanzhang knew that his sons had many common people, and they didn't care.

As for Zhu Di, he is a little better, but he also cares more about his family.

And there is no need to say more about Zhu Houcong.

To him, the common people were just like that.

Such a small thing can be said to be big or small.

But it was obvious that Jiang Chen didn't pay attention to the thoughts of the emperors at this moment, and he was still typing his words quickly.

The follow-up content continues to come out.

"Okay, that's it for the clan. This is the best and most likely solution. After solving this, the other issues are taxation and military affairs. Stop levying Shaanxi taxes. You won't be able to collect money anyway. Stop it to avoid further trouble. Force the people to rebel."

"In terms of military affairs, don't mess around. Commander Hong is fully responsible for the border defense of the five towns of Shaanxi, Sanbian, and Lintao, as well as money and food... You can make up your own mind. Ma Xu, Qi Guoping, Du Wenhuan and other generals are under his control.

Governor Lu was fully responsible for the defense of the three towns of Xuan, Da, and Shanxi. Cao Wenzhao, Cao Bianjiao, Wang Pu, and Jiang Yu were under his control. . "

"Sun Dishi has full authority over the defense of Jiliao, Baoding, Changping, and Tianjin towns. Tang Tong, Ma Ke, Hou Shilu, You Shiwei, Wu Sangui, Zu Dashou, Zhao Lijiao, and Mangui are all under him.

Yuan Keli was in charge of Denglai, Dongjiang, and the Navy, spying on Jin and Fu, and controlling North Korea. Sun Yuanhua, Zhang Keda, Mao Wenlong, and Yang Guowei were under his control. "

"Zhu Xieyuan is in charge of central Sichuan. He controls Sichuan, Lake, Yunnan and Guizhou and responds to military affairs. He must stabilize the southwest. Zhu Zhenman's general seal is given to Qin Liangyu, and Yingfe general's seal is given to Zhang Fengyi. The former controls the Han army of the four provinces, and the latter controls the Turkish army of the four provinces."

"First control the basic situation of the Ming Dynasty, and then train the new army, promote firearms, set up a prime minister's office for national affairs, recruit Europa, purchase and develop firearms, improve the calendar, and ask the Franji people in the Oyster Mirror for fire gun training. Xu Guangqi added The Minister of the Second Department of Rites and Gong is responsible for this matter. At this moment, the Ming Dynasty has begun to fall behind, but it is not far behind. It only takes a matter of minutes to seize the opportunity to catch up."

"When we have more advanced firearms, it will not be easy to defeat all the Qing Tatars. It is a joke to say that a queen's wealth is less than ten thousand, and that she is invincible after ten thousand. Under the Gatling Bodhisattva, all living beings are equal!"

The words were typed quickly.

Ignoring the incomprehensible looks of several people, he said all the words he wanted to say.

Zhu Youjian, who was still thinking about the clan issue mentioned by Jiang Chen, was immediately stunned by this information.

He didn't expect that Jiang Chen actually gave him an extremely complete system, and even thought of all the arrangements for him.

That personal name made him feel surprisingly shocked.
