Chapter 688 Yuan Huang's Worries
Who has the guts?

That's right, who has the courage to do such a thing that kills the nine clans?
No matter how you think about it, it's impossible, right?

But, it just happened.

Seeing Zhao Hu's astonished expression, Yuan Huang suddenly felt that this question was quite funny.

Yes, going back thousands of years, which dynasty or generation has such a situation occurred?
The imperial power was not emptied by powerful ministers, but was hijacked by the powerful gentry groups that evolved from the literati. On the surface, the country was controlled by the gentry groups, and the correct civil politics was promoted. Help the Federation to master.

The above is that the civil servants used righteousness and money to deceive and prevaricate against the emperor and dissidents. The bottom is that they transitioned to the gentry and powerful groups to control the local real power in the identity of Juren, emptying the grassroots organizations of the Ming government, or explaining that the local government organizations of the government are controlled by them. Because they are also within the system.

The Ming government was a typical small government, and the government only reached the county level, and there was no government below the county level, which opened the door for gentry groups.

Under the national policy of preferential treatment for gentry, gentry groups began to dominate the country. Just like the political system dominated by aristocratic families in the Jin Dynasty, the gentry groups in Ming Dynasty became new aristocratic families, and they were stronger, more sustainable, and more inclusive. Invite readers to join them.

At the same time, the businessmen, who had an insight into the rules of the national political game, also broke free from the image of the disadvantaged group, and began to become stronger than ever before, almost catching up with their ancestors, that is, the group abolished by Shang Yang's reform. Great businessmen.

The two are combined into one, integrating economic privileges and political privileges, blazing a path of official-merchantism with Ming characteristics, and finally achieving the undefeated golden body.

However, Shang Yang in the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Juzheng, did not achieve Shang Yang's career after all. Although he died as well, Zhang Juzheng was not as strong as Shang Yang. So people die.

Perhaps Zhang Juzheng has tried, such as restoring the Qin army's head-first system, trying to support the army, but today is different, Zhang Juzheng knows Shang Yang's routine, and others don't?
Times have changed, and the world has changed. Zhang Juzheng's failure has been revealed from the very beginning. Compared with Zhang Juzheng, who knows what he can't do, Zhang Cong is obviously much smarter. He only deals with noble forces and Huangzhuang, avoiding He joined the civil service group, so his reputation is not as extreme as that of Zhang Juzheng.

In the Ming Dynasty, there were wealthy businessmen comparable to the great reform era, and there were gentry and powerful men comparable to the nobles of the ages in that era, but there were no reform ministers comparable to Shang Yang and reform kings comparable to Qin Xiaogong. In a normal situation, failure is inevitable.

After that, there seemed to be no hope for the Ming Dynasty, and officials, businessmen, gentry and powerful people became more and more unscrupulous.

Therefore, it seems that such a thing will happen now, it is not surprising, right?

Yuan Huang thinks like this.

"Military division? Military division?"

Zhao Hu's voice pulled Yuan Huang's thinking back.

"Huh? Oh!"

Yuan Huang's thoughts drifted a little far, he took a deep breath, and said: "Thinking about some things is a bit far away, Bo Wei, it is true that someone is behind the scenes of the northern captives going south, but the behind the scenes The people who made it may not have thought that such dire consequences would be caused, and they underestimated the greed of the North Prisoners."

Zhao Hu asked in disbelief: "Does the court know about this matter?"

Yuan Huang nodded: "The imperial court knows and has made some preparations. This matter must be investigated to the end. Otherwise, there is no way to give an explanation to the world, but..."

Zhao Hu asked: "Just what?"

Yuan Huang frowned slightly worried.

"Xiaohou shouldn't have been involved in this matter. Although Xiaohou was awarded the governorship, he was still a military general and a nobleman. The Ming Dynasty government has never allowed military generals and noblemen to participate. There seems to be something wrong with Xiaohou's words. The idea of ​​getting involved, it's dangerous."

Zhao Hu didn't quite understand the joints here.

"They are all officials in the same dynasty, why not? Shiro is the governor, and the governor is also an official of the literati. Can't he do something with this official name? Chen Yuande was originally a military general, but now he is an admiral of the police and is also in charge of civil affairs. , Shiro said that while in his position, he seeks his own government, isn't that the truth?"

Yuan Huang nodded. As a member of the former civil service group, he understood the joints very well.

"It's the same in other dynasties and dynasties. There are not so serious differences, but the differences in the Ming Dynasty are so clear that the only people who can interfere in the government are the Jinshi and civil officials in Beijing. They have never been in the army or fought. There can be no slightest flaws, otherwise, they will all be rejected."

Zhao Hu showed a puzzled expression.

"What's the point of this? Why did the court have such a rule?"

Yuan Huang was taken aback.

Yes, he is right, when did the imperial court have such a rule?Did Taizu found the country?Is Cheng Zujing difficult?Or... the Civil Fortress Change?

Well, now that I think about it, many things started with the Civil War.

Before and after that period of time, too many things really happened in the Ming Dynasty.

"All in all, this is not a good thing. I have already sent someone to send a letter to Shiro, telling him not to get involved in this matter, and come back immediately after the battle. The vortex in the capital is not something he can participate in. If one is not good, there may be Life is in danger!"

"Life is in danger?!"

Zhao Hu's eyes widened: "Someone wants to harm Shiro?"

Yuan Huang looked serious.

"It's not that someone wants to harm Xiaohou, but that if Xiaohou rashly participates in the handling of this matter, it is very likely that he will be criticized by others and will be suppressed by the court. At least he will lose his official position, and at worst he will die. Qi Shaobao usually ends up better."

Zhao Hu hurriedly said: "Si Lang is a marquis, a noble!"

"So what? The nobles are the main object of the court's defense, not to mention the special nobles like Xiaohou who guard the border and hold military power. It is only because of the particularity of Myanmar that Xiaohou is allowed to command the army. If It is impossible to change to other places.

The imperial court was quite wary of Xiaohou, but Xiaohou had always been loyal to the country and kept his duty. The courtiers could not find any reason or excuse, and they needed Xiaohou and Burma to help them accommodate the refugees from the Central Plains. I wait for a seemingly peaceful life. "

"The military division means that if the court finds excuses and opportunities, it won't let it go easily?"

Zhao Hu looked at Yuan Huang.
