Chapter 200 A public statement from the old father

After the anchor explained the reasons in detail, Zhang Juzheng finally understood the rift between the monarch and his ministers.

He had always put the teacher-student relationship before the monarch-subject relationship, and always appeared in front of the little emperor with the face of a strict teacher.

This led him to ignore the inner feelings of the little emperor, which ultimately led to a catastrophe.

Now after being reminded by the anchor, he already understands what to do.

At this moment, he has changed his mind. He should always keep the principle of monarch and minister in his heart and give the little emperor the respect he deserves.

Secondly, the identity of the strict teacher is no longer suitable. The little emperor obviously doesn't like him anymore. He needs to transform into the image of a compassionate teacher and always give the little emperor the care he deserves.

Only in this way can the little emperor feel his love and avoid the tragedy from happening again.

Zhang Juzheng: Your Majesty, after the live broadcast ends, I will practice cycling with you.

Xiao Wanli: Zhang...Mr. Zhang...it's settled...

Little Wanli was very excited, his big black eyes were extremely bright, and his little face was filled with a bright smile.

Mr. Zhang had always been very strict with him in the past, scolding him at every turn, which made him resent and respect Mr. Zhang.

Now that the clouds have finally cleared and the moon is shining brightly, his good days are coming.

At this moment, he had to thank the host.

If it weren't for the current financial constraints of the imperial court, he would really like to reward the anchor with a lot of money.

It was precisely because the anchor told Mr. Zhang what would happen in the future that Mr. Zhang changed his previous harshness and changed his attitude towards him so much.

Seeing the happy smile on the little emperor's face, Zhang Juzheng deeply understood how wrong the previous education methods were.

Fortunately, it's not too late. What the anchor said has not happened yet, and there is still time to make up for it.

I believe that after this time, his relationship with the little emperor can be harmonious and he will not be liquidated again.

After settling his affairs, the most important thing for him now is reform. This is the most important thing.

The original reform in history ended in failure. The reason for this was certainly the liquidation of the little emperor, but there should also be other factors.

As long as he finds out the root cause of the failure of the reform and then takes appropriate measures, he believes that the reform will definitely succeed this time.

Zhang Juzheng: Anchor, I would like to ask, what is the fundamental reason why future generations think the reform failed?

He was in the middle and had an incomplete view of the reasons for the failure of the reform. He could only look for answers from later generations.

After all, later generations were hundreds of years away from the Ming Dynasty, so they were able to analyze the reform situation more comprehensively and find out the root cause of the failure of the reform.

Su Chen saw the question raised by Zhang Juzheng. Since Zhang Juzheng's reforms played a decisive role in the entire feudal society, he was happy to say a few more words on this topic.

"Zhang Juzheng's reforms have achieved certain results, which has greatly improved the fiscal revenue of the Ming Dynasty and restored and developed the social economy."

“There were even sprouts of capitalism, which gave the dying Ming Dynasty a chance to survive.”

"However, after Zhang Juzheng's death, the reform ultimately failed due to fierce opposition from conservatives."

"Zhang Juzheng himself became a victim of the reform and ended up with his personal demise, and the Ming Dynasty also continued on the path of decline."

"As for the reasons for the failure of Zhang Juzheng's reform, later scholars believe that it was caused by a variety of factors."

Yongzheng: The Ming Dynasty actually fell in Wanli. To be more precise, the failure of Zhang Juzheng's reforms marked the beginning of the demise of the Ming Dynasty.

By the Wanli period, the Ming Dynasty was already declining and on the decline.

Zhang Juzheng's reforms did, to a certain extent, save the Ming Dynasty from decline and set the Ming Dynasty on the path to resurgence.

But fortunately, after Zhang Juzheng died, his series of reforms also came to an end, which gave him the opportunity to rise to the Qing Dynasty.

Otherwise, if we really go ahead with Zhang Juzheng's reforms, they will have nothing to do with the Qing Dynasty.

From this point of view, he was very grateful to Emperor Wanli and those opposition ministers for killing the momentum of Ming Zhongxing in time.

Emperor Wanli, who had not been in court for many years, felt deeply regretful at this moment, and now recalled that he was deeply annoyed by the decision to liquidate Zhang Juzheng after his death.

After Zhang Juzheng died of illness, in order to secure the throne as soon as possible, he chose to operate on Zhang Juzheng.

It is true that there are factors of dissatisfaction with Zhang Juzheng, but more importantly, it is to gain the support of the opposition.

To this end, he did not hesitate to overturn a series of reform measures implemented by Zhang Juzheng.

But it was not until a year or two later, when he took over the government, that he more deeply understood the importance of Zhang Juzheng's reforms.

But by that time, even if he regretted it, it was too late, and it was impossible to restart Zhang Juzheng's reform measures.

"First of all, the reform lost the support of the emperor and the queen mother."

"Zhang Juzheng served as the chief minister of the cabinet during the Wanli Emperor's period and had absolute power."

"At the same time, Zhang Juzheng was also the lecturer of Emperor Wanli. When Wanli was young, he could be said to be obedient and respectful to Zhang Juzheng."

"But as Wanli grew up, especially after reaching the age of eighteen, he was able to handle the government affairs independently and wanted to govern himself."

"But Zhang Juzheng refused to delegate power. With the support of Empress Dowager Li, he still clung to power and was unwilling to hand over the power of government to Wanli."

"This made Wanli suspicious of Zhang Juzheng. Once the seeds of suspicion are planted, they are difficult to remove."

"As a result, Wanli felt rebellious, and his previous awe and fear of Zhang Juzheng turned into resentment and dissatisfaction."

"After Zhang Juzheng's death, Wanli truly took control of power."

"In order to restore the emperor's authority, vent the dissatisfaction with Zhang Juzheng that has been suppressed in his heart for so long, and also to gain the support of Zhang Juzheng's opposition."

"Thus, Zhang Juzheng was liquidated and Zhang Juzheng's reforms were abolished."

“As Zhang Juzheng’s reputation fell into disrepute, the reforms he implemented ultimately failed due to the loss of institutional support.”

Queen Mother Li: Mr. Zhang, I don’t want the Ai family to harm you. The Ai family is sorry for you.

When she thought that she was also responsible for Mr. Zhang's eventual liquidation, she couldn't help showing regret.

In fact, Mr. Zhang has long wanted to retire, but she has never agreed.

After all, mother and son need someone to rely on, otherwise they will be easily bullied by the ministers.

She was a weak woman, and her son was so young. She was an orphan and a widowed mother, so she could not frighten the court.

It was precisely because of this that she would not let Mr. Zhang retire and hoped that Mr. Zhang could stay to help their mother and son.

But she didn't expect that it was because of her decision that Mr. Zhang would eventually fall into an irreversible situation.

Zhang Juzheng: The Queen Mother must not say that. The fault lies with the minister. I should not be greedy for power and should retire as soon as possible.

Although he proposed the idea of ​​​​retiring early, Empress Dowager Li did not agree.

But the most fundamental thing was that he couldn't let go of the power in his hands, so he agreed half-heartedly.

In the final analysis, the reason lies with himself and has little to do with Queen Mother Li's mandatory requirements.

He has already thought clearly that when the little emperor grows up, he must slowly return the power in his hands to the emperor.

Even if he gains the emperor's trust as a compassionate teacher, he must do this.

"Secondly, there is no social basis to promote and support the reform."

"Although the series of reforms implemented by Zhang Juzheng were beneficial to the long-term stability of the Ming Dynasty, his measures inevitably harmed the interests of the bureaucrats, nobles and landowners, arousing their dissatisfaction and gaining their support."

"After the affair, some enlightened people in the bureaucracy also gave up their support for Zhang Juzheng."

"In order to remove ideological obstacles, Zhang Juzheng advocated practical learning, opposed empty talk, and prohibited lectures and the establishment of new schools of thought."

"He also killed He Xinyin, a famous disseminator of mind science at that time, reorganized 64 academies, and nationalized these academies to become government-run academies."

"This is ideological tyranny to a certain extent, and was inappropriate at a time when thinking was active and mind science was developing rapidly. These actions aroused opposition from scholars and scholar-bureaucrats who believed in mind science."

He Xinyin: I am just teaching and learning, so I can suffer unreasonable disasters. I have provoked whoever.

Hearing that he had been killed by Zhang Juzheng, he suddenly became angry.

His lifelong ambition is to spread Wang Yangming's philosophy of mind, hoping that every student in the world can understand Wang Yangming's philosophy of mind.

Zhang Juzheng wants to reform. That is Zhang Juzheng's own business and has nothing to do with him.

But in order to control the minds of scholars all over the world, Zhang Juzheng went so crazy as to have him operated on. How ridiculous this is.

Zhang Juzheng: My reforms are aimed at these landlords and gentry. They already have a lot of extravagant demands without causing destruction. How can I hope to get their support?

He also knew that his reforms lacked widespread support, but there was nothing he could do about it.

After all, his reforms harmed the interests of the landlords and gentry, and it was normal not to receive their support.

As for clearing ideological obstacles, this is also very necessary.

After all, his reform measures dissatisfied many scholars, so it was inevitable that they would gather together to discuss state affairs and carry out ideological control.

But there was one thing that made him curious: what was this love-stealing incident that could actually make his supporters give up their support for him.

It can be seen that this should be a serious political crisis.

If we could know the whole story, we might be able to avoid this crisis in advance.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but ask the anchor. The anchor should know this matter better.

Zhang Juzheng: Anchor, what does this love-stealing incident refer to?

"Zhang Juzheng worked day and night on state affairs. In the fifth year of Wanli, his old father Zhang Wenming, whom he had not seen for many years, passed away."

"According to the ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty at that time, when the parents of a court official passed away, he had to return to his ancestral home to serve as an official for twenty-seven months, and then resume his official career after the expiration of the period."

"Zhang Juzheng's reforms have just begun. Leaving at this time will inevitably make the reforms unsatisfactory."

"So, Zhang Juzheng made the only choice, to win love."

“The scholar-bureaucrats of the Ming Dynasty had a deep-rooted concept of loyalty to the emperor and filial piety. How could they be loyal to the emperor if they failed to fulfill their filial piety.”

"Yang Tinghe, a great scholar in the Zhengde Dynasty, was also a famous assistant. When he received the news of his father's death, he immediately resigned and returned home to observe the system."

"As a result, the court officials criticized Zhang Juzheng verbally and in writing."

"Both the censor and the officials of the six ministries asked Zhang Juzheng to resign and go back to observe filial piety, which brought a lot of trouble to Zhang Juzheng."

"At this time, Wanli cannot personally govern, and Zhang Juzheng needs to decide on all major national affairs. I don't want Zhang Juzheng to go home to observe his filial piety."

"In the end, Wanli issued an edict to warn the officials, and then they discussed Zhang Juzheng's love-stealing behavior. He was punished without mercy, and the criticism stopped."

After Zhang Juzheng heard this, his eyes were a little complicated.

It's no wonder that his original supporters gave up their support for him. Everything became clear. It turned out to be this.

Indeed, the Ming Dynasty governed the world with filial piety, and officials should abide by it even more.

According to the etiquette of the Ming Dynasty, after an official's parents passed away, the official should resign and return to his hometown to observe filial piety.

At this moment, he couldn't help but feel deeply embarrassed.

There are still three years left before the fifth year of Wanli when his father passed away. How will he choose then.

If he continues to win love as he did in history, many of his supporters will definitely be dissatisfied with him, and those who oppose him will not miss the opportunity to attack him.

But if he resigns and returns to his hometown to observe his filial piety, then the reform measures he has just launched may be in vain.

This dilemma made him confused for a while and he didn't know how to make a decision.

Zhang Wenming, who was in his hometown in Jingzhou, learned about his death date from the anchor, and he suddenly had mixed feelings in his heart.

He could roughly feel that he might not have many years to live, but suddenly he learned that there were less than three years left, which made him somewhat sad.

But now is not the time to be sad, he still has to help his son solve his troubles.

He couldn't let his son suffer from enemies from all sides just because he stole his love.

Zhang Wenming: I am Zhang Juzheng’s father. For the sake of the country and the country of Ming Dynasty, after I passed away, I did not ask Zhang Juzheng to come back and observe filial piety. Zhang Juzheng just carried out reforms to save the Ming Dynasty, which is the greatest filial piety to me.

The rightful owner came out to explain the situation publicly, and those who were opposed to the reform all looked ugly.

Finally, such a good opportunity to attack Zhang Juzheng was easily resolved by the owner.

Zhang Juzheng couldn't help but smile knowingly, and the difficult decision just now disappeared in an instant.

"In addition, the imperial court will recognize the legal right to use the land as long as the taxes are paid in full."

"Instead of allocating excess land occupied by landlords to landless farmers, the problem of land annexation is not solved, which makes it difficult to gain support from farmers."

"The implementation of the One Whip Law has reduced the burden on merchants and craftsmen."

"But these two classes are weak and have not formed an emerging political force to support reform."

"Although the reform is beneficial to the development of the country, it has harmed the interests of many classes, so there are very few people who sincerely support the reform." "On the contrary, those whose interests have been harmed use their economic power to safeguard their own interests. , political power, continue to obstruct and undermine reforms."

Zhang Juzheng: This is also a helpless move for me! Just asking landlords to pay taxes in tax evasion areas has already aroused fierce opposition from the landlord class. If the tax evasion land discovered by the landlord class is allocated to the peasants, I am afraid they will have to rebel.

It's not like he hasn't thought about it, but he gave up this bold idea after thinking about it for a moment.

If the land hidden by the landlord class is distributed to the peasants, they will have to fight hard!

His reform measures have already touched the interests of the landlord class. It is already good to carry out the current reform measures. Any further actions that anger them will only be counterproductive.

Naturally, he knew that not many people supported the reform, but so what, he still wanted to force the reform.

He had anticipated this before he proposed reforms.

But he didn't care. In order to save the Ming Dynasty from decline, no amount of obstruction could extinguish his determination to carry out reforms.

"Finally, Zhang Juzheng's personality, work style and employment mistakes are also inseparable from the tragedy behind him."

"Zhang Juzheng is a very extravagant person in life, and every time he travels he makes a grand display."

"Zhang Juzheng has always advocated frugality in the court and repeatedly asked Emperor Wanli and Empress Dowager Li to save money on the grounds that the treasury was empty."

"But he can only ask others, but cannot lead by example himself. He is destined to not get the support of the emperor."

"After Zhang Juzheng became ill and bedridden in his later years, the whole country set up an altar for him to pray to gods and Buddhas."

"No one in the royal family, except the emperor, would dare to get such treatment easily."

"It is not a good thing that Zhang Juzheng, a minister, has received such a great honor. If a minister is too popular with the people, he will arouse the emperor's suspicion."

"Besides, there was already a rift between Zhang Juzheng and Wanli. Emperor Wanli was already dissatisfied with him. This greatly offended the emperor's majesty and the conflict between the two completely intensified."

"In the cabinet, Zhang Juzheng is arbitrary and has the final say on everything."

"Even when he was seriously ill and at home, he still firmly held the power of the cabinet, and major matters still had to be decided by him."

Liu Fuling, Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty: Zhang Juzheng was so powerful that he was almost as powerful as Huo Guang.

In his opinion, it was no big deal that Zhang Juzheng asked the emperor to be frugal while at the same time he was extravagant and lustful.

But after Zhang Juzheng became seriously ill, he went too far by setting up altars across the country to pray for himself.

Only the emperor can enjoy such treatment, but now a minister enjoys the same treatment as the emperor. This can no longer be described as arrogant.

Seeing Zhang Juzheng's power, he thought of Huo Guang, a powerful official in the court.

Huo Guang dominated the court with one hand and even dared to depose the late emperor. His arrogance was much greater than that of Zhang Juzheng.

Just as Emperor Wanli was dissatisfied with Zhang Juzheng's power, he was also dissatisfied with Huo Guang's power.

He hoped that Huo Guang would restrain himself after seeing Zhang Juzheng's tragic ending and stop provoking his authority again and again.

Otherwise, he will most likely, like Emperor Wanli, carry out large-scale liquidation after Huo Guang's death.

"In addition, Zhang Juzheng is also closed-minded, particularly unwilling to listen to the different opinions of other officials, and adopts methods of crackdown and suppression against political opponents and officials with different opinions."

"As a result, it will be difficult to solve problems in the reform in a timely manner, and it will be difficult to correct problems in the policy in a timely manner."

"By the time Zhang Juzheng discovers it himself, the abuses may have been so deep that he will be unable to remedy the situation."

"Zhang Juzheng also likes to be praised by others, so in order to please Zhang Juzheng, some officials do their utmost to flatter and flatter him to get his favor."

"There are flattering officials who praise Zhang Juzheng for being comparable to the wise ministers of ancient times. That's all."

"But some people praised Zhang Juzheng as being comparable to Yao, Shun, and Yu. The key point is that Zhang Juzheng accepted it calmly. This is a bit too much."

"After all, the emperor and his ministers are different. What does this make the emperor think? It will definitely deepen the resentment and fear in the emperor's heart."

Wang Anshi: Good guy, this Zhang Juzheng is not ordinary thick-skinned. He can actually accept praises that are comparable to those of Yao, Shun, and Yu. I am ashamed of myself for this.

Both were reformers, but his temperament was hugely different from Zhang Juzheng's, which really puzzled him.

As the prime minister, he led the reform, and naturally there were many officials who fawned over him and wanted to be put into his position.

But for such a flattering person, he knew that once such a despicable person was reused, it would only hinder his reform cause.

Therefore, if any official wants to take shortcuts through sideways, it is impossible for him to reuse them.

But this Zhang Juzheng actually enjoys the flattery of others, and more importantly, he actually wants to reuse such a flatterer.

He couldn't understand it at all. It was clear that reform was a time when a large number of talents were needed, but Zhang Juzheng chose to appoint some shameless people.

At this moment, he more or less understood why Zhang Juzheng's reform ended in failure.

Reform measures need to be implemented by officials below. There are problems with these reformist officials. How can the reform succeed?

"Zhang Juzheng also corrupted the imperial examination system and helped his son cheat in the imperial examination."

"In the fifth year of Wanli, the emperor personally came forward and used a transfer trick in the imperial examination to promote his second son from the second place in the second class to the second place in the first class."

“This puts people who are supposed to be in high-ranking positions at the lower end of the list, but instead puts people who are not worthy of them at the top of the list.”

"And other ministers also followed Zhang Juzheng's example and competed to steal fame for their sons."

"Children of high-ranking officials and nobles competed to commit fraud, and the comings and goings of the court were controlled by just a few families."

"No matter how hard a child from a poor family studies, he or she can only serve as a wedding dress for others and become a ladder for others to rise to the top."

"This greatly corrupted the imperial examination system, had a very bad influence among scholar-bureaucrats, caused great harm to the politics of the Ming Dynasty, and accelerated the decline of the Ming Empire."

Zhu Yuanzhang: Humph! He also dared to practice favoritism and malpractice in the imperial examination. If this happened in our dynasty, he would have to be exaggerated.

He had a very complicated view of Zhang Juzheng, and he didn't know how to evaluate him for a while.

Zhang Juzheng's series of reforms indeed helped the Ming Dynasty and brought the country back to life.

But this cannot cover up the mistakes Zhang Juzheng committed, which can even be said to be a major crime of annihilating the nine tribes.

Whether it is from Zhang Juzheng's monopolization of power or Zhang Juzheng's malpractice in the imperial examinations, what Zhang Juzheng committed was an unforgivable capital crime.

Zhang Juzheng: Fortunately, this has not happened yet, and there is still time to correct everything.

Not to mention, he really had the idea to let his son get a good ranking in the imperial examination.

After all, that is his son, and as a father, he should help him no matter what.

He did not expect that one small act of willfulness in his power would lead to other officials imitating him. This was something he did not expect.

Indeed, as the anchor said, if high officials like them did this, then the imperial examination system would exist in name only.

The damage caused by the destruction of the talent selection system is huge.

Now that he knows that favoritism is one of the reasons for the failure of the reform, it is naturally impossible for him to make such a mistake again.

"Zhang Juzheng used talents on a meritocratic basis during his lifetime, employing talents like Qi Jiguang and even some outstanding grassroots talents."

"But at the same time, he also depends on whether the other party is conducive to his concentration of power."

"So he also reused a lot of flatterers and flatterers."

"Such people can only say nice words but not do nice things. They only want to gain power and money by flattering others."

"If you don't sincerely implement reforms, it will be even more difficult to shoulder important responsibilities."

"So with Zhang Juzheng's death, it will be difficult for the reform to continue."

"Just like Zhang Siwei and Shen Shixing, who were single-handedly promoted and brought into the cabinet by Zhang Juzheng, they are both two-faced and go along with the crowd."

"After Zhang Juzheng's death, Zhang Siwei immediately catered to Wanli's opposition to reform. After Shen Shixing succeeded as the first minister, in order to win people's hearts, he abolished the examination law and other policies implemented by Zhang Juzheng."

"How can the reform continue with such a double-dealer stealing important positions?"

Zhang Juzheng: Zhang Siwei, Shen Shixing, you are very good, I misjudged you.

He looked extremely ugly when he heard that the two pavilion elders he trusted most stabbed him in the back after he died of illness.

This feeling of betrayal by others made him extremely sad, especially by the person he trusted most.

Zhang Siwei and Shen Shixing strongly supported his reform measures, and they also performed very well in the implementation of the reform.

Because of this, he trusted both of them so much and promoted them to the cabinet.

But I never expected that the support of the two of them was false and they did not sincerely support the reform at all.

One opposed reforms after his death, and the other abolished a series of reform policies after his death, completely making his many years of efforts in vain.

At this moment, while he hated the two traitors, he was also annoyed that he had misjudged people and actually allowed the two opponents to infiltrate the reformists, which ultimately led to the failure of the successful reform.

He immediately took out a pen and paper, dismissed the two men from their official positions, and expelled them from the court.

"Zhang Juzheng's reforms ultimately failed, but the reforms increased the country's fiscal revenue, restored and developed the social economy, and slowed down the rapid decline of the Ming Dynasty."

"At the same time, although the reform has achieved certain results, it cannot change the deep-seated shortcomings of the Ming Dynasty's fiscal and taxation system."

"On the one hand, the extensive small-scale peasant economy at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China was swallowed up by the unstoppable wave of land annexation after the mid-Ming Dynasty."

"The concentration of land has led to more and more refugees and a large number of tenant farmers. Landlords have excessively exploited tenant farmers by virtue of their land monopoly."

"On the other hand, the tax system designed in the early Ming Dynasty based on the decentralized land rights was increasingly ineffective. The government's ever-expanding financial needs and unstoppable illegal tax collection became an unbearable burden on civil society."

“The fiscal and tax reforms in the late Ming Dynasty were unable to cure this evil disease that penetrated into the bones of the system, and the state machinery was irreversibly damaged.”

Li Shimin: The problem of land annexation was not only a problem in the Ming Dynasty, but also happened in all dynasties. Especially in the late dynasty, land annexation was quite serious, which led to the change of dynasties.

The land issue has been a dead end for all dynasties since ancient times. No matter what methods are adopted, the final land annexation cannot be avoided.

Unless the problem of land annexation is solved once and for all like in later generations.

But the problem is that they cannot learn the land reform policy of later generations at all, nor dare to learn it, nor can they even mention it.

If land reforms were implemented in each dynasty and every generation, the moment the policy was proposed, there would be rebellions all over the country, and the dynasty would perish faster.

But he doesn't need to consider the issue of land annexation now, after all, the Tang Dynasty has just been founded.

There is more than enough land allocated to farmers across the country, and it has even reached the point where there are too many people but too little land.

Land annexation usually only gradually becomes harmful in the middle and late dynasties, which is still early in the Tang Dynasty!

Moreover, now that there are high-yielding crops and grains, one acre of land is enough for a family to live and work in peace and contentment.

From this point of view, the harm of land annexation will be delayed for tens or hundreds of years longer than before, so there is no need to worry now.

"The ending of Zhang Juzheng's reform can also give some inspiration and lessons to reformers in various dynasties."

"First, reform must grasp the principal contradictions in society. Zhang Juzheng's achievements in reform were precisely because he grasped the principal contradictions in society in the middle and late Ming Dynasty."

"A series of specific measures were implemented to address these contradictions, saving the Ming Dynasty from rapid decline."

“Second, reform must keep pace with the times, be pioneering and innovative, and formulate policy strategies that meet the development requirements of the times based on the ever-changing social conditions and specific analysis of specific issues.”

"Third, reform must be good at listening to suggestions from all sides and open up a wide range of opinions in order to promptly solve problems that arise during reform."

"Don't close your mind and just listen to what one family says."

Zhang Juzheng was thoughtful after listening, with an extremely serious expression on his face.

He was thinking about his series of reform measures and whether he had achieved the three revelations mentioned by the anchor.

What the anchor just said inspired him a lot and benefited him a lot.

He just said that the last one is to open up the world, but he failed to do it.

Now that he thinks about it, he realizes that he did something very wrong by blocking his words.

After listening to the anchor's analysis of the reasons for the failure of his reform, he is now full of confidence. He is confident that he can succeed this time and that there will be no more collapse of the people and the government.

The rulers of each dynasty also had thoughtful expressions, and what the anchor said gave them some inspiration.

This allows them to think more comprehensively in future policy reforms and formulate more appropriate policy guidelines.

Wang Anshi, who was also a reformer, seemed to understand something.

When he implemented a series of reform measures, he did not consider everything thoroughly, and he always felt that there were some flaws somewhere.

Now after being prompted by the anchor, he seems to have found the answer.

Except for a small group of people who are interested in the reasons for the failure of Zhang Juzheng's reforms, the vast majority of ancient people in various dynasties are not interested.

Now that the anchor finally finished speaking, they breathed a sigh of relief and began to look forward to it.

Because everyone knows that the next step for the anchor is to sell goods.
