【Why is it said that Zhu Yuanzhang turned the whole world into the world of his Zhu family?】

【Before the Ming Dynasty, scholar-bureaucrats coexisted and governed with the royal family. However, in the Ming Dynasty, the status of scholar-bureaucrats suddenly dropped.】

【Fallen into a prostitute, into royal servitude】

【In the thirteenth year of Hongwu, Prime Minister Hu Weiyong was killed and his three clans were punished. His crime was that he violated the law and corrupted the virtuous, and had evil intentions.】

【Hu Weiyong's death was actually the result of the conflict between monarchy and ministerial power.】

【It was also an important step for Zhu Yuanzhang to strengthen authoritarianism and centralize power. Zhu Yuanzhang took advantage of the opportunity to eliminate Prime Minister Hu Weiyong.】

【The Zhongshu Sheng and the Prime Minister system were abolished, and the powers of the six ministries were elevated. The six ministries were directly responsible to the emperor, raising the imperial power to its highest peak in history.】

【After that, several large prisons were set up, which continued to expand the implication of Hu Weiyong's case.】

【In the 23rd year of Hongwu's reign, Zhu Yuanzhang promulgated a list of treacherous party records to accuse Hu Weiyong of conspiracy.】

【A large number of senior generals including South Korean Duke Li Shanchang, Ji'an Marquis Lu Zhongheng, and Yan'an Marquis Tang Shengzong were executed.】

【More than 30,000 people died after being implicated in the 26th year of Hong-Wu】

【The commander of the Jinyi Guards falsely accused Lan Yu, Duke of Liang, of treason. Zhu Yuanzhang immediately ordered him to be captured and interrogated by the Ministry of Civil Affairs.】

【Three days later, Zhu Yuanzhang executed Lan Yu, and what followed was a large-scale purge and implication.】

【After Lan Yu was imprisoned, Jin Yiwei forged a confession to claim that the Marquis of Jingchuan Cao Zhen, the Marquis of Heqing Zhang Yi, the Marquis of Shunshang Zhu Shou, the Marquis of Dingyuan Wang Bi, Dongguan Bo He Rong and the Minister of Civil Affairs Zhan Wei】

【Fu Youwen, the minister of household affairs, and others intended to rebel. In fact, the Lanyu case was a complete injustice and a political massacre.】

【There are 25,000 people implicated in this case who are listed in the records of rebels alone.】

【In the twenty-eighth year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang officially promulgated the ancestral precepts of the Emperor Ming Dynasty. In this year, Zhu Yuanzhang was already 68 years old.】

【Before this year, Zhu Yuanzhang killed all the generals who were not pleasing to his eyes, and even the literati who only knew how to write words were killed.】

【A white-headed executioner who has set up literary prisons repeatedly and killed no one until no one dared to speak or take a breath. He has been killing for a lifetime and his hands are covered with blood.】

【They were so complacent that from now on, the Ming Dynasty would be able to sit back and relax, the emperor's throne would be established forever, and his descendants would have a bowl of ready-made rice without having to worry about it.】

……

Da Qin.

Qin Shihuang looked at Zhu Yuanzhang's coquettish actions on the light screen in silence. He just felt that this emperor was probably not mentally ill, otherwise why would he dig his own grave like this?

"Are others okay?"

"With such a killing spree, at first he thought Zhu Yuanzhang was a poor and good emperor who rose to power?"

"Unexpectedly, this man's ambition is unprecedented and unprecedented, and it is unique to him!"

Ying Zheng said with great sigh.

"Your Majesty, this man was born in a poor family, and he got lucky and became emperor all the way. However, this new dynasty was successfully established."

"But I didn’t expect that this person’s mind would be so narrow-minded. He only cared about the descendants of his own family, but not the people of the world."

"Those brothers who conquered the world with him in the beginning were just stepping stones for him to sit on the throne."

Li Si said this. The more he talked about it, the more he felt that Zhu Yuanzhang could be said to have fully demonstrated the four characters"rabbits die and dogs are cooked".

"Those people fought with him, but in the end they ended up with their heads missing. I don’t know how the people of the Ming Dynasty viewed him."

"He also abolished the prime minister system. Does he want to supervise hundreds of officials by himself?"

"If so, wouldn't he be exhausted? After all, the Prime Minister is the emperor's right-hand man, the one who reaches up to the emperor and transmits the holy will below."

Sang Hongyang took a step forward and cupped his hands and said:

"Although the abolition of the prime minister system has given power, there will be no one to deal with many big and small matters."

"Unless he wants one person to take over the power and handle all matters, big and small, at one time"

"However, this would probably make the emperor very tired."

Ying Zheng nodded in agreement and said with great understanding:

"That's right, the prime minister system helps the emperor share his worries and handle government affairs. Without this system, the emperor would not sleep or eat. It would be difficult to solve so many government affairs."

"There is also the tax system, which is a disguised form of oppression of the people." (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Didn’t you say that everyone in the world should have food to eat and not be bullied?"

"Does his current system want to overturn what he said before?"

0 Asking for flowers,

Feng Quji guessed:

"When Zhu Yuanzhang first established the Ming Dynasty, he wanted to win over people's hearts. Most of the people belonged to the common people. To build momentum, he could only start from the common people."

"With the support of the people, his Ming Dynasty will be stable."

"This person has a deep heart and understands people's hearts very well. However, he is so murderous and violent now, and sooner or later he will destroy himself."

Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes and said coldly:

"How could such a person become an emperor through the ages? This word is simply insulting!"

……

【The reason for the demise of the Ming Dynasty was that they died of poverty】

【In such a big country, how did they end up so poor?】

【Just like being a human being, money can solve most problems, but the problem is, there is no money!】

【A country is just like a big family. The manifestation of financial collapse is a serious imbalance of revenue and expenditure.】

【The majority of the Ming Dynasty's fiscal revenue came from agriculture, and from the middle of the Ming Dynasty, land annexation within the country became a serious problem.】

【The landlord class, headed by princes, nobles, relatives and civil servants, is frantically plundering land from the people. These people have many ways to evade taxes.】

【The final result was that the court lost a large amount of financial resources.】

【The tax system of the Ming Dynasty also had some big drawbacks. Zhu Yuanzhang stipulated that the gentry and the duke royal family could be tax-free】

【In other words, all the country's taxation is done by the middle and lower classes. This policy has been increasingly used as a loophole.】

【For example, when it comes to land tax, many landlords store their fields in the homes of landlords with tax-exempt privileges, euphemistically called"hosts", to avoid paying taxes.】

【Later, land annexation was serious in the Ming Dynasty, and a large number of landowners annexed land. They owned vast land but did not have to pay taxes.】

【Landless farmers had to bear harsh taxes, so civil unrest continued. By the time the Ming Dynasty promoted ZTE】

【The land that could be used to collect agricultural taxes during the Ming Dynasty had dropped from more than 8 million hectares during Zhu Yuanzhang's time to more than 4 million hectares at this time.】

【Shrunk by half, the Ming Dynasty's economic reintegration began during the reign of Longqing Emperor Zhu Zai before Zhang Juzheng. 】.
