Chapter 144 I am not mentally prepared to let him know that I am the Great Emperor of Hongwu

After Zhu Yuanzhang defeated Chen Youliang, the King of the Ming Dynasty, Han Lin'er, was detained by Zhang Shicheng. Zhu Yuanzhang once again opposed the opposition and went to rescue Han Lin'er. But at this moment, Chen Youliang led the remaining troops and the entire army to attack, and a sneak attack was launched against Zhu Yuanzhang's base Jinling!

At this time, if Zhu Wenzheng had not dragged Chen Youliang's 600,000 troops in Hongdu with only 20,000 troops, the result was really, it is unknown who would have won the battle!

It’s hard to say that the world is still owned by Zhu Yuanzhang!

With this in mind, several old ministers, looking at the furious Emperor Hongwu, chose to shut up with tactfulness!

These old ministers stopped talking, but Prince Zhu Biao couldn't help but start talking again!

"Father, son minister thinks..."

"If the father insists on his own opinion, there will be few survivors left in the world!"

"Without the Ming Dynasty, who will manage the state prefectures in the world?"

"The father is so strict!"

"Father, my son always listens to your teachings!"

"Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh food!"

"So my son thinks that this matter is better to be discussed for a long time!"

You can kill people in the world, but you can't kill people in the world!

Zhu Biao thinks that his father can be arbitrary when he conquers the world because his father is as keen as a wise man!

But if this rule of the world is so arbitrary, there will inevitably be problems!

The father has always been strong!

I just hope that this time my father can listen to his advice!

"No need to say much!"

"I am sure to kill all the corrupt officials in the world!"

"There is no official to be available!"

"I will send the garrison to manage the local prefectures in person!"

"I don't believe it. In this world, without these corrupt officials and these treacherous villains, will it be even worse?"

"Are the civil and military ministers in the court all the people are all treacherous villains and corrupt officials?"

"If there is no good official in this world!"

"Then I will overturn the world with my own hands!"

"Build another brand new Ming Dynasty!"

Zhu Yuanzhang is still stubborn!

The Ming Dynasty was created by stepping on the corpse of the Tartars!

Han people can rebuild their homes by stepping on the corpses of Tartars, and then Han people can rebuild their homes by stepping on the corpses of corrupt officials and treacherous villains!

Are those corrupt officials even more powerful than the Tartars?

I just don't believe in this evil!

There are four hundred and ninety-three guards in my world!

Each ward has five thousand households, with a total of 5,600 people in the whole country!

Not only that, my world also has 359 thousand households independent of the Wei!

Now they are all guarding one side, farming and herding, guarding the strategic important areas!

These garrisons that I have set up personally are not just simple military garrisons!

They also have the ability to handle government affairs!

So many commanders and thousands of households must not only be responsible for training troops, but also for government affairs of one party and work hard on everything!

From the top to ensure safety, from the bottom to the food, clothing, housing and transportation!

When Zhu Yuanzhang set up these garrisons, he might have thought of them for the future to handle government affairs!

The existence of these garrisons is more like the existence of the combination of the theater construction corps in the 21st century!

Therefore, it is indeed very competent in handling government affairs.

You can lead troops to fight when you get on the horse, and you can control the local area when you get off the horse!

Emperor Hongwu seemed to have considered the arrival of this day long ago.

Once large-scale corruption occurs, one will kill one, one will kill one, ten thousand will kill ten thousand. After the killing, the nearby garrison will directly take over the local government affairs!

From then on, the governance model of military and political integration will be launched!

From this point of view, is Zhu Yuanzhang considered the emperor of the ages?

no!

Because historical calligraphers attribute Kang Mazi to the Emperor of Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Eternal Etern

Emperor Hongwu Zhu Yuanzhang should be described as the emperor of thousands of eternity!

During the Jiajing period, Li Zhi, a native of Quanzhou, Fujian, was a representative figure of the Taizhou School, and used the tens of millions of emperors to describe Zhu Yuanzhang!

Those who scolded Zhu Yuanzhang in later generations who said that Zhu Yuanzhang was cruel were nothing more than because Zhu Yuanzhang was never ruthless in dealing with corrupt officials!

After all, it is just a daylily, and after all, it is four major cases!

Is Zhu Yuanzhang cruel?

He is indeed cruel!

But who is his cruel object?

Not the common people!

They are those corrupt officials! They are those privileged classes!

That is why those privileged classes wantonly slander Zhu Yuanzhang and think Zhu Yuanzhang is cruel!

In the eyes of the privileged class, what's wrong with us corruption of money? What's wrong with us not paying taxes? What's wrong with us bullying the common people? Why do you, Zhu Yuanzhang, treat us as mud legs?

This is the truth!

All of Zhu Yuanzhang's "crimes" can be found in a book. This book is Zhu Yuanzhang's code of conduct. This book is "The Great Edict of Imperiality". This book is the nightmare for all officials!

Article 59 of the "Imperial Edict" stipulates that the villagers should eliminate troubles: Those who dare to intercept the virtuous and upright people in the countryside can eliminate the patients, and those who are talented and powerful people can eliminate the patients for the people. When they meet in the city, they will bind the treacherous and cunning officials and the idle officials to go to Beijing, and punish the people to eliminate the troubles of the people to safeguard the good people! Those who dare to intercept the enemy will be beheaded and take them to Beijing, and when they go to Beijing, they will not be blocked.

Article 34 of the "Imperial Edict" stipulates that the people and officials who harm the people: Anyone is allowed to arrest the rioters, and the chief officials and all people who dare to stop them will be punished by their family!

There are countless examples of this. For example, there is a farmer named Chen Shouliu in Changshu, Jiangsu. He rushed into the county government with his brother and nephew, and tied up Gu Ying, a county official who was very harmful to the people on the spot. He then went to Beijing to file a lawsuit against the emperor. Zhu Yuanzhang not only chopped Gu Ying's head, but also praised Chen Shou's actions very much. He immediately ordered to reward Chen Shou's six treasures and two sets of clothes for three sets of clothes for three years, and to exempt Chen Shou Liu Zafan from serving for three years. He also informed the world of this matter and rewarded him!

In order to protect Chen Shouliu from being retaliated by local officials, Zhu Yuanzhang even wrote in his letter to the world that clearly stipulated that if any local governments dare to make trouble, they would harass Chen Shouliu and kill the whole family! If anyone dared to fabricate a crime and falsely accused Chen Shouliu, they would also kill the whole family!

If Chen Shou makes any mistakes in six days, only Zhu Yuanzhang in the world has the right to interrogate.

Finally, Zhu Yuanzhang added, saying that Chen Shouliu is really amazing!

For example, Bo Wangduo, the lord of Leting County in Hebei, and others designed to harm the people. This official had a lot of ideas and came up with the trick of "subsidizing corvee labor": the county should do projects, and every family should work hard, and if they don't work, they should take money.

How much did you make? Each person was scraped five pieces of silk, which was equivalent to six stones of rice. Compared with the salary at that time: the county magistrate's monthly salary was seven stones of rice, which was the main source of the thinness. The wealth was big enough!

Before the money was collected, Wang Duo was tied up by the angry villager Zhao Hanchen and other 34 people, and was tied up to Nanjing for complaints. He was so brave that he was so brave that he was now scared. When he approached Nanjing, he refused to leave, leaving behind a deafening plea: I was fourteen years old and the work of the lamp window came to this point. You can avoid me from doing this and don’t harm my future.

But the facts proved that this scary master Bo was still too stupid and naive. When he hit Zhu Yuanzhang, how could he just harm his future? Kill! All eight officials including Wang Duo were beheaded and their heads were hung in Nanjing for several days.

But compared to his past anger at such things, Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy this time. In addition to commending the villagers who kidnapped Wang Duo, he also posted the original words of Wang Duo's plea before entering Nanjing in the court newspaper and informed officials all over the country to study: You should not be too much Wang Duo as an official.

Zhu Yuanzhang was most famous for his strict official style. The thing he hated the most was that he said: the people he appointed often led the Hu Yuan's evil. That is, the Ming Dynasty was established, and these officials also had the bad habits of the Yuan Dynasty.

Zhao Gan, the head of the Ministry of Revenue, is a typical example. In Hubei, Zhu Yuanzhang was furious and ordered him to go to the disaster area. He set out in December and traveled all the way. He arrived at the disaster area two months later. He worked for another three months and started relief in May. Afterwards, he took stock of the losses, and the casualties of the victims were shocking.

The leaders of the Ministry of Revenue were calmly explained: This was an old habit of the Yuan Dynasty. Although Zhao was slow in his actions, he was considered a conscience in the industry. Zhu Yuanzhang could not stand this "conscience". He beheaded Zhao Gan first when he was angry. All the officials who spoke good words during this period were pulled out to beat the board. The imperial edict even gritted his teeth: He looked at the people and did not save them, and the crime was not defeated - no matter whether the people's lives or death, they would not relieve their hatred.

Zhao Gan, a dereliction of duty, wrote a historical record with his life: the first official in ancient Chinese history to beheaded for slow disaster relief.

In the 18th year of Hongwu, a county magistrate committed adultery, triggering a bloody pursuit. The plot is so ups and downs that it is comparable to the police and gangster blockbuster movie: Li Gao, the magistrate of Liyang County.

The magistrate of Ligao County was hooked up with Pan Fu, the concubine of Zaoist of Liyang. Pan Fu grabbed the handle and threatened to collude with him. In order to help Pan Fu occupy the property, he even gathered people to attack the house and demolished him.

The people of Liyang who had endured enough, led by the common people Huang Lu to Nanjing to file a lawsuit. Zhu Yuanzhang sent a "special task force" to capture Pan Fu. Unexpectedly, when he arrived in Liyang, Pan Fu had already escaped under the cover of the gentry Jiang Shilu. The "special task force" firmly held it tightly, but he didn't want this local snake to operate for many years. It was not until he hid in the temple that Zhao Zhen, a gentry of Chongde, that he was surrounded by the "special task force".

Pan Fu, Zhao Zhen and others were eager to jump over the wall, gathered more than 200 outlaws, and the "task team" fought bloody battles for a day and night before conquering the temple and taking down the evil man.

Such a storm aroused Zhu Yuanzhang's tough handling: Li Gao and Pan Fu were executed, Zhao Zhen and Jiang Shilu and other accomplices, and 307 households were searched for their heads and beheaded. More than 1,000 people were executed, which is recognized as the shocking bloody case in the Hongwu period, second only to the "Four Major Cases".

The Li Gao adultery case led to Zhu Yuanzhang's issuance of a unique anti-corruption law in ancient Chinese history: as long as there are officials in the local area who harm the people, the common people can directly tie the people to Nanjing for punishment as long as they have a copy of the "Imperial Edict" on their heads.

Under Zhu Yuanzhang's rule, there are countless such things, and they are so "brutal"!

Zhu Yuanzhang is simply a tyrant and bullied people too much!

Therefore, after Zhu Yuanzhang's death, the privileged class hid the "Imperial Edict" as soon as possible!

And he stood on the united front with a rare opportunity and began to spare no effort to splash dirty water at Zhu Yuanzhang and wantonly smear Emperor Hongwu!
