Chapter 519 You Don't Live Up To Me, I Don't Live Up To You
The emperor was just proud of his arrangement, then remembered something, and asked in a deep voice: "How is the investigation of the situation in Yunnan?"
Old Wei hurriedly said: "Going back to the emperor, there are many chieftains in Yunnan, and the situation is complicated. The servants have sent people to investigate many times. Although the investigation is not complete, but after a period of time, there will be no omissions in detail."
"Wei Ban will tell you what happened during the investigation." The emperor waved his hand and said, "It's okay if it's a rough idea or not."
Old Wei bowed and agreed, sorted out his thoughts, and opened his mouth to report.
When it comes to Yunnan, the Mu family in Shizhen Yunnan is naturally indispensable.Fifteen generations have passed since Xiping Hou Muying, to Mu Sheng's meritorious service in conquest of Jiaozhi, and his succession to the Duke of Qian.
In the second year of Tianqi, An Bangyan rebelled, and the court ordered Mu Changzuo, the Duke of Qian, and his grandson, Mu Qiyuan, to go out to fight. They were afraid and had many excuses.
In December of the fourth year of Tianqi, Mu Changzuo died of illness; in March of the fifth year of Tianqi, Mu Qiyuan succeeded his grandfather as Duke of Qian.
Mu Qiyuan was frivolous and lawless, conniving at home slaves to harm the common people, and patrolling Yu Yu arrested the offending home slaves according to the law.Mu Qiyuan actually mobilized troops and aimed artillery at the patrol office.
Regarding Mu Qiyuan's arrogance, the emperor did not break out in rage, but took forbearance.But the investigation had already started, and it was before Mu Qiyuan took over the throne.
The She'an rebellion in Guizhou stemmed from the fact that the power of chieftains had not been completely suppressed; similarly, the situation in Yunnan was similar to that in Guizhou. Not only were there many chieftains, but they were also powerful.
And Mujiashi has been in Yunnan for hundreds of years, and it has inevitably fallen into luxury and corruption.And surrounding the huge wealth and power of Duke Qian, the Mu family is full of dark struggles of intrigue and intrigue.
"...The Mu family used their power to manage farmland in Guangxi, Yunnan. In the 16th year of Wanli's reign, the Mufu Zhuangtian had seized more than 8000 hectares of private farmland, and with the addition of an imperial grant, the total amount could reach [-] hectares."
"The 360th area of Mu's Pushu Tianye, one of the solar eclipses, can be one year old. The treasure gold shell is full of treasures, and it is almost against the Tianfu..."
"The Mu family has guarded Yunnan for many generations, and the people of Dian 'zhuang affairs are like the imperial court. Under Pianchu, the local chieftain came out to welcome Guo with majesty, and then opened it after washing', saying: This is the purpose of the decree."
Old Wei obviously misunderstood the meaning of the emperor, and focused on the Mu family's land and treasures.
Of course, it wasn't all a misunderstanding, but at least it underestimated the emperor's intentions.
First of all, the level of development in Yunnan is far from enough.Coupled with the hot and humid climate, when a catastrophe strikes, it can fully contribute to Daming's surviving the famine.
Secondly, Yunnan's military strength is relatively weak.This refers to the Ming army stationed in Yunnan, not the chieftains in Yunnan.Otherwise, the last Duke Qian would not have been messed up by the Shadingzhou Rebellion.
Finally, the Taungoo Dynasty in Myanmar was not submissive, but domineering and arrogant.He fought several wars with the Ming Dynasty and occupied many lands that belonged to the Xuanwei envoy of the Ming Dynasty.
As for the Mu family in Shizhen Yunnan, it is obvious that they can no longer meet the emperor's needs for expansion and revenge in terms of ability.
The reason why he was not in a hurry to act was because the She'an Rebellion had not yet been settled, and the emperor did not want to cause turmoil in Yunnan, and he did not want to let chieftains or foreigners take advantage of it.
The emperor's great investment in Liaodong not only accelerated the progress of Ping Liao, but also trained tens of thousands of elite soldiers and generals, so that the northern border was almost free from worries.
The emperor was not stingy about quelling the Shean Rebellion.Although the investment was less than that of Liaodong, and the replacement of weapons and equipment was slower than that of the Liaodong Ming army, after the rebellion was put down, it was no problem to build tens of thousands of elite troops.
And these tens of thousands of elite troops are the emperor's sharp sword to reorganize the southwest, pacify the interior, and crusade against foreign nations.
After listening to Old Wei's narration, the emperor lowered his eyes and made up his mind.
Just like the nobles who have been in peace for a long time, the Mu Mansion has become corrupt, and the official circles in Yunnan are also profiting from the Internet. Behind the seemingly peaceful, there are hidden dangers that are not noticed by others.
"Very good. We have still found a lot of real information. We must continue to strengthen and not relax." The emperor finished thinking, with a smile on his face, and ordered the palace staff to bring a box of ginseng and give it to Wei Wei.
The emperor also explained, "Old mountain ginseng strengthens the body and prolongs life. Wei Ban takes care of his health and will contribute to my errands."
I'm not afraid of working, but I'm afraid of being neglected when I have nothing to do.The emperor's words revealed his concern and his expectation of continuing to reuse him, which moved Old Wei to a complete mess.
"Thank you, servant, for the grace of the emperor." Old Wei knelt down on the ground, kowtowed repeatedly in tears, "Slave's humble life is to serve him with all his might, yes, also..."
The emperor waved his hand and said: "I don't want to die, I will be satisfied if I do my duty faithfully. But there are some people who have read the sage books for nothing, are corrupt, corrupt, and run around like dogs. Find all these bastards for me. That’s the best reward.”
"Emperor, don't worry." Old Wei raised his head and gritted his teeth before wiping away his tears, "Which bastard is ungrateful, eating the emperor's salary, doing dirty things, slaves will never let him go."
The emperor believed that Lao Wei would do this, and Lao Wei also knew that his honor and disgrace depended entirely on the emperor.If the emperor wants to go east, he will never go west, even if it is wrong, he will resolutely implement it.
The emperor needs a courtier with outstanding abilities who can stand alone, which will save him worry and effort; the emperor also needs cronies who can use his fingers to fight wherever he points. They don't need to be too smart, as long as they are absolutely obedient.
The eunuchs are completely dependent on the emperor, and there should be no doubt about their loyalty to the emperor.It was they who were scolded by civil officials as eunuchs and traitors, but when the country was subjugated, they showed much more backbone than most civil servants.
Historically, when Li Zicheng entered Beijing, it was like a mirror that illuminates the demon, revealing the original appearance of those sanctimonious hypocrites.When the Manchu Qing ruled the Central Plains, more unbearable civil servants and military generals appeared, and their shameless faces were disgusting.
Therefore, the emperor did not discriminate against eunuchs, even though they were physically handicapped.For officials, the requirements are very strict, and there is subconscious distrust.
Of course, whether it is an official or a eunuch.Anyone who dares to corrupt and violate the law will be dealt with equally severely, and will never be lenient.
For several years, smart people should have known the emperor's temperament.Like Taizu, he hated corrupt officials deeply, and he would never be soft in cracking down on them.
But unlike Taizu, the emperor was not stingy in rewarding merits.It seems that there is still a principle: if you don't let me down, I won't let you down.You have contributed to me, and I will reward you.
It is not uncommon for the emperor to reward his courtiers, or called rewards.Rewards and punishments are clear, isn't this the emperor's way of employing people?
It seems simple, but it needs to be done properly. How many emperors were there in history?
As eunuchs and servants, Lao Wei, Wang Tiqian and others certainly knew the emperor better.Especially what they have done in the past few years has made them more aware of the emperor's character.
Set up a retirement home for the eunuchs, and the dismissed palace people are also properly resettled until they can stand on their own.From these two items, they knew the emperor's benevolence.
But benevolence is benevolence, so don't violate the emperor's taboo.What the emperor hated most was corruption, and what annoyed him most was deceit.
As long as you don't make these two mistakes, a good start and a good end can be guaranteed.An eunuch doesn't have to worry about being miserable and helpless in old age, what else is he planning?
