Chapter 144: I'm not ready yet to let him know that I am Emperor Hongwu(2/4)
In feudal society, this is indeed normal. When the pen is in their hands, the people can’t write!
Even if everyone thinks that Emperor Hongwu is good, I don’t know who to tell me and how to say it!
It has been recorded and passed down through written records, and there is no chance for the people.
But after Emperor Hongwu passed away, everyone in the country cried with mourning. Are these ordinary people fools? They don’t know if Emperor Hongwu is good to them?
The people are the people who know the most!
They are the most realistic!
They used their actual actions to express their respect for Emperor Hongwu. They may not understand what the cruelty in the officials meant, but they knew very well who was the best person to them!
As a bowl at the beginning and a storm, Emperor Hongwu experienced the darkness of the end of the Yuan Dynasty and his family was starved to death!
He understood the suffering of the people too well, and he understood the despair of the people when no one decided on the people!
Therefore, Emperor Hongwu asked every household to have a copy of the "Imperial Great Edict". He was afraid that the people would not be able to read and could not understand it. He sent officials to explain to the people from door to door, and also drew pictures on the "Imperial Great Edict", which was both pictures and texts!
In order for the people to keep the "Imperial Great Edict", Emperor Hongwu formulated that if the people commit crimes and have the book "Imperial Great Edict" at home, the crime can be reduced first. If not, then the crime will be increased first!
Emperor Hongwu even regarded the "Imperial Edict" as a subject, and also gave questions in the imperial examination for the people of the world. If you encounter injustice, you will be sued and have the power to capture officials, and you will not be bullied by corrupt officials!
For the sake of the people of the world, Emperor Hongwu tried every means!
This is really a tyrant, he doesn't even care about the officials!
It’s so hateful to think about mud legs all day long and harm officials!
We must make him ugly! Make him bad! Write him as a tyrant!
Unfortunately, the privileged class failed!
Emperor Hongwu is such a person!
The Ming Dynasty, who was born in poverty, had a square face, was thrifty, sympathetic, and hated corrupt officials, opened up the heavens and ruled the law and established a great saint, the most benevolent, righteous, martial, and handsome emperor!
In order to discredit Emperor Hongwu, those little kids in later generations deliberately painted the square face of Emperor Hongwu into a pig's waist!
Zhu Yuanzhang never cared about the evaluation of him in later generations, nor did he care about the title of Emperor of Eternality. He didn't even need anyone to prove that he was a good emperor!
After all, it is not too clear to get the country's integrity!
To destroy the Yuan Dynasty and restore China, just one thing, and to rebuild China, this contribution is comparable to the great achievements of the ancestor dragon Qin Shihuang!
Especially the tax-packing system of the Yuan Dynasty, for example, the court had to collect taxes of 5 million taels of silver, and then the tax was included to the local landlords and gentry. The local landlords and gentry paid out of their own pockets and gave the court five million taels of silver!
Then the local landlords and gentry could tax the local people. Those who spend money naturally had to make money.
As for how much you want to earn, simply put, as long as you can’t kill, you will collect it to death!
Therefore, it is very normal for Zhu Yuanzhang's parents to starve to death. Moreover, in this case, it is not only Zhu Yuanzhang's family, and countless people in the world were starved to death!
The Yuan Dynasty also divided people into four levels, such as Mongolian Seminary Hannan, and those who were divided into ten levels, one official, two official official, three monk, four Taoist, five doctor, six craftsman, seven craftsman, eight prostitute, nine scholar, ten beggar.
How miserable did the Han people study? What is the sharp decline in the population of Han people at the end of the Yuan Dynasty? These are simply countless!
The only black spot of Emperor Hongwu was nothing more than the later blackening. The white-haired man gave away the black-haired man and chopped off the nobles who had indeed made contributions such as Lan Yu and Fu Youde, but that was impossible.
If Zhu Biao was not dead, these people would be the regent ministers left by Zhu Biao by Lao Zhu, but once Zhu Biao died, Zhu Yunwen would definitely not be able to suppress them!
A helpless act!
Looking at the past and present, with so many emperors, Emperor Hongwu can definitely rank among the top three!
However, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was involved in this matter, has not yet turned evil and is never ruthless to corrupt officials!
"Father..."
"No need to say much about Biao'er! My intention has been decided!"
Zhu Biao still wanted to persuade him, but Zhu Yuanzhang interrupted directly!
Zhu Yuanzhang had nothing to say about his son. Even if Zhu Biao secretly wore a dragon robe, Zhu Yuanzhang would probably praise him, my son is so handsome in a dragon robe!
"Father, I don't want to persuade you to let go of those corrupt officials. I have something else to say."
Seeing that his father interrupted him, Zhu Biao returned calmly again.
"It's not this? What's that?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment before signaling Zhu Biao to continue talking.
As long as I don’t let those corrupt officials release, everything else is easy to say.
"Father."
"My son learned that the reason why such a big case was solved this time depends on Fang Benren's accounting method!"
"So my son guessed that since this method of keeping accounts was invented by the benefactor, the benefactor is naturally the most familiar with it."
"Whether it is the queen mother, the Korean husband, or Chengyi Bo, they are all beginners, and accidents will inevitably occur."
"What the son-in-law wants to say is, why not ask the benefactor to come and review it again?"
"We cannot let a corrupt official go, nor can we wrongly accuse an innocent person!"
Zhu Biao said slowly.
"Your Majesty, I think what the prince said is reasonable!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, I am all beginners, so there will inevitably be mistakes. Why don't you ask Mr. Fang to come over and check it again just in case!"
"I also feel that what the prince said is reasonable!"
......
When Zhu Biao finished speaking, everyone couldn't help but lit up and agreed again.
More than 20 million!
This number really shocked everyone!
They are all willing to choose to believe that they have not learned it well and calculated it wrong!
"unnecessary!"
But before everyone finished speaking, they were interrupted by Zhu Yuanzhang again!
Isn’t this embarrassing to the door?
Since I ascended the throne, I have put the people first!
The rebound and clearance are the core of my work!
I even promulgated the "Imperial Edict" for this and established an extremely strict inspection system!
I even set an example, be thrifty and loving the people!
Can be called a model worker!
Working for eighteen hours a day!
What about now?
I have already done this!
Is there actually a rat shit like Guo Huan?
If Fang Shiyu knew about this...
The boy didn't know what he would spit out from his mouth!
Don't go!
Absolutely not to go!
Do I want to be face-saving?
"Zhongba, I also think what Biao'er said makes sense. Why not just go and meet your little benefactor!"
Just as Zhu Yuanzhang refused, Empress Ma suddenly persuaded her.
"See him?"
"Queen, do you think I have not lost my old face yet, and I have to go to Fang Xiaozi's place again and completely throw it away?"
Even after Empress Ma persuaded him, Zhu Yuanzhang still looked angry.
Why did Xiuying sing the opposite tune with me today?
Why aren't you standing on my side?
And I am not mentally prepared to let him know that I am the Emperor Hongwu!
If he suddenly told him, he wouldn't be scared to death?
So I don’t want to go, because it’s for the sake of that kid’s life and for my face!
"Jongba!"
"I asked you to find a little benefactor, not to embarrass you."
"I am for the descendants of our Zhu family, and for the long-lasting thoughts on the Ming Dynasty!"
