I became a mysterious person in textbooks after being pushed by the emperors

Chapter 96: How to draw a pie
"I don't know, sir, could you please clarify?"

When the text appeared, Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, a little surprised.

But after thinking about it, Jiang Chen felt relieved immediately after thinking that these guys liked to bring them in blindly every time.

"How Europe rises is very complicated, but the most critical point is to decentralize power. The world is too big, and it is not like the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty is only a drop in the bucket compared to the entire world."

"If these vassal kings were placed within the Ming Dynasty, they would be nothing more than moths and the bane of the Cholera Dynasty. But if they were released, they would not be the same."

"Zhu Youjian wants to get enough money. It is impossible to kill the minister. As mentioned before, his body will be cold the next day if he dares to kill him. It is even more impossible to open the sea. In the past, the Ming Emperor wanted to open the sea, but the treasure ship The drawings simply disappeared. He was still the emperor in the middle of the Ming Dynasty. If Zhu Youjian opened the sea, it would not be a matter of circumventing the drawings. Zhu Youjian's ashes would be carried away."

"The only one left is the vassal king. It's obviously not possible to do it violently directly. The power Zhu Youjian can control may not be much more than that of the vassal king as mentioned before. Even if you move one, the subsequent vassal kings can kick you down. The only way to do this is to be smart.”

"As for how to outwit, that's what I call feuding and establishing a country."

"These vassal kings were raised like pigs by the Ming Emperor. They could not take part in the imperial examinations or engage in business. The top officials were really like a bunch of pigs, and the bottom ones were not even as good as the poorest people. If this continues, even if there are no problems in the Ming Dynasty, these The vassal king also came up with the problem. It is better to use waste than to use it like this. As long as Zhu Youjian lets out the word, any vassal king can get the opportunity to build an overseas feudal state as long as he pays a certain amount of money. Of course, it can also be said that he pays enough money and grain as a tribute. Quan, anywhere except within the Ming Dynasty, vassal kings can establish states and become vassal kings."

"I can guarantee that as long as Zhu Youjian does this, the treasury will not say too much in a short time. Tens of millions of taels of silver is definitely not a problem, and even tens of millions of taels are possible. Are you still worried about running out of money?"

"Although there are many problems with the enfeoffment system, the most typical one is that the enfeoffment is only the land and population that can be cultivated, which belongs to the privatization of land property, while the domestic mountains, forests and rivers and lakes are public property, which means that everyone can go to these places to obtain The resources they need, as the number of princes increases, the country's land becomes less and less. Only part of the harvest from privatized land is turned over as national tax according to the tribute system, and the rest goes to the princes and nobles. In this way, through layers of The tax revenue paid to the country is very limited, and the public ownership of mountains, forests, rivers and swamps cannot provide tax revenue for the country. In addition, as the vassal states become increasingly powerful, the royal power weakens and the feudal system is destroyed; for example, the Chu State in the Spring and Autumn Period The king's aspiration is an open challenge to the Emperor of Zhou from the princely states."

"But these are all minor problems, and you only see the shortcomings of the enfeoffment system. Do you see the advantages of the enfeoffment system?"

"Without the enfeoffment system, how could the Zhou Dynasty replace the Shang Dynasty? King Wu's defeat of Zhou just stole the Shang Dynasty's home. Even if King Zhou was killed, once the merchants gathered, the Zhou Dynasty would be over. It was precisely because of the enfeoffment system that the Great Zhou Dynasty Only then did the current world become stable. After hundreds of years of melee and fighting during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, most of them were not descendants of the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty."

"And the feudal state I mentioned is not the previous one. The place where the enfeoffment was enfeoffed is not within the Ming Dynasty. There is no such problem at all. To put it mildly, even if these princes become stronger and even counterattack the Ming Dynasty, so what? The pot still rots in his own bowl, and it can leave more opportunities for Ming Dynasty, which is better than Ming Dynasty being wiped out in waves."

"The world is too big. Don't keep staring at the three-acre land of the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Di, Zhu Houcong, haven't you two already lived in it? There was the Yongle period when the sea opened, and the Jiajing period when the sea opened. Don't you have an idea of ​​how big the world is? , in such a huge world, wouldn't it be good to throw the feudal king out? There is no need for Li Zicheng and other peasant uprisings to take action. It will be done once and for all by then, but the money will not reach Zhu Youjian's hands. It is better to follow the instructions Come here..."

In the 21st century, Jiang Chen was sitting next to a computer, and the text was typed out by him quickly.

Lines of content, text presented one by one.

When they saw Jiang Chen's follow-up content, the emperors of the Ming Dynasty who were originally frowning could not help but be stunned for a moment.

Even at this moment when they saw Jiang Chen's words, they realized in their hearts that it was right.

"Sir, you are really talented!"

In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Zhu Di, who had originally stood up, could not help but gradually sit down, with an expression that contained a sigh and a feeling of emotion.

He originally thought that his husband might not know much about the issue of enfeoffment.Even though Jiang Chen had always shown himself to be omniscient and omnipotent, Zhu Di couldn't help but have such thoughts when he mentioned the idea of ​​feuding and founding a country.

But looking at Jiang Chen's lines of words, Zhu Di couldn't help but smile bitterly.

The gentleman is still the same gentleman, almost omniscient and omnipotent.

He thought that way, but it was just too superficial.

Sir, after thinking about all the issues, the issue of enfeoffment naturally also came to mind.

While smiling bitterly, Zhu Di's heart moved. He couldn't help but think of his sons, especially Zhu Gaoxu, the second king of Han. Zhu Di really liked Zhu Gaoxu, the second king of Han.

That's not just deception.

There's no way Zhu Gaoxu looks too much like him.

He even said that if the prince is weak, you should encourage him.

Although he said this sentence, it was just talk. He could not depose Zhu Gaochi and establish Zhu Gaoxu.

The reason is very simple. On the one hand, the Ming Dynasty went through turmoil, and his throne was inherently unfair. He abolished the elder and established the younger. This was the way for the dynasty to bring disaster. Zhu Di knew that history would naturally not make such a low-level mistake.

On the other hand, even Zhu Gaoxu only looks like him, and his internal affairs are completely inferior to Zhu Gaochi.

The Ming Dynasty no longer needs a military emperor.

Especially when Yongle time and space has reached an unprecedented level, Zhu Di no longer needs him as the emperor, Zhu Gaochi is the best choice.

But how to arrange Zhu Gaoxu is a big problem.

Even now, Zhu Gaoxu is still obsessed with the throne. Now he has mastered the Ming Navy. Well, now it can be called the Ming Navy.

It can be said that it is the most important component of the Ming Dynasty at the moment. If it is not properly arranged, the entire Ming Dynasty may be in turmoil a hundred years later, but how to arrange it has become a big problem.

At least Zhu Di had never thought of how to solve this problem before, but now Jiang Chen's content gave him ideas to solve this problem.
