The main reason for this is inheritance.

It's not that Timur's successors are not good enough, but it's the result of his system.

There is precedent for such a system before.

Whether Genghis Khan was strong or not, and whether the area he ruled was large or not, the Mongol Empire still left nothing behind.

It does not have its own culture or unique institutional support.

After all, it's just a flash in the pan.

Zhu Ying was very confident that he would survive Timur in his lifetime.

Timur is a few years younger than the old man, but even so, he is already fifty-seven this year.

Zhu Ying, who is only 19 years old, said she doesn't feel any pressure at all.

Timur and Ming were so far apart that the only thing they could do was an arms race.

Now Timur, nominally speaking, is still a minister of the Ming Dynasty.

Besides, Zhu Ying can think of it.

When the cement formula was passed to Timur, it would inevitably intensify the escalation of class conflicts.

Timur will inevitably continue to forcibly recruit slaves for construction, and all conquered places will have to be depopulated.

If Timur had built a concrete straight road between Eurasia and Europe during his lifetime.

Then I really need to thank him very much.

After this, how much time will be left?

Thinking of this, Zhu Ying felt that it was too small a plan to secretly rob the money that Shaharu had brought to the capital.

Better grab it.

After all, Timur was only fifty-seven years old and could still live for many years.

When Timur dies, it would be a good choice to support Pierma Heima to stabilize a piece of territory.

Intervening in name only makes sense.

Zhu Ying didn't realize while thinking that the distance between him and Ye Yueqing was getting closer and closer.

...

The story of Zhu Ying and Ye Yueqing's outing soon spread to Zhu Yuanzhang, who had just left the court.

"This kid has finally come to his senses. It makes us all anxious."

"Jiang Wei, how long is the date set for the Qintian Prison?" Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and asked Jiang Wei next to him.

Jiang Wei said respectfully: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the date set by the Qintian Prison is March 18th, and there are still thirteen days left."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.

In another seven or eight days, according to Da Sun's budget, Zhengyang Avenue can be completely opened.

However, this time will be postponed to the thirteenth day.

It will only be officially opened after the Grand Sun Ceremony is completed.

At this time, in the Huagai Hall, in addition to Jiang Yu and Liu He, the eunuch in charge of the ceremony, there were also five ministers.

Apparently there was a ceremony just now.

What happened to Da Sun was just a small episode.

"Zhao Shangshu, please continue talking about spring plowing." Turning around, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered.

For a farming civilization like the Ming Dynasty, spring plowing at the beginning of every spring was the most important time of the year.

This is related to the great fortune of the entire next year.

Before spring plowing, we should not only offer sacrifices and pray, but also pray for good weather this year.

And the release of high-yield crop grain seeds this year is also a very critical issue.

After Zhao Mian, the Minister of Household Affairs, bowed and bowed, he began to report on his current situation.

Although there seems to be a lot of food seeds for sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn and other crops after last year's fall, it is naturally impossible to fully cultivate such a vast territory like the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, the choice of region is very important.

At present, the main areas where it is released, according to Zhu Ying's previous proposal, are mainly in the northwest region.

Among them, Shaanxi and Shanxi are the most important places, accounting for 60% of the total.

The remaining 20% ​​will belong to Beizhili.

In the first half of last year, northern Zhili suffered severe drought and flooding, resulting in serious food shortages.

Just because high-yielding crops do not drink water, they only account for 20%.

The remaining 20% ​​was shared equally among the other Chief Secretaries.

Because rice cultivation areas are vast in other provinces, it is impossible to destroy farmland to plant these high-yielding crops. The main distribution targets are those who do not have farmland at home.

Among them, farmers who grow sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn and other crops will receive a preferential policy from the court that halve their taxes for three years.

The Ministry of Household Affairs is now in full swing. Not only the local Ministry of Household Affairs, but also the capital has sent a large number of officials to conduct extremely strict inspections of all areas where grains have been distributed.

Be sure to ensure that the grain seeds are in place and planted carefully.

It must be said that Zhao Mian, who was able to become the Minister of Household Affairs, was very strict in the designated regulations.

If you don't have any talent these days, you won't be able to survive in Zhu Yuanzhang's place.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the memorial filled with charters and plans and listened to Zhao Mian's narration. He frowned slightly from time to time and nodded lightly from time to time.

Don't underestimate the current Ming Dynasty.

After Hu Weiyong and other cronies were eliminated by Zhu Yuanzhang, it seems that the Ming Dynasty does not have any particularly powerful talents.

But in fact it is just a historical record.

Whether comparing the entire three hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, or comparing the previous dynasties and dynasties, the ministers in the current Ming Dynasty are all superior in terms of comprehensive talents and serving the people. Politicians

Qingming.

Zhu Yuanzhang controlled the government alone. Although this method was extremely tiring, the benefits were also very obvious.

Regardless of whether it is a large or small matter or a variety of military emergencies, there is never any possibility of delay.

It is difficult for officials in the court to get promoted without practical talents, and most of them are constantly demoted.

The situation that the capable are promoted and the weak are demoted is very clear in today's Ming Dynasty.

This is true even for local officials.

As the saying goes, imperial power does not go to the countryside.

But now Zhu Yuanzhang's edicts are carried out without hindrance, whether in the county, in the countryside, or even within the clan.
