Chapter 137: The Germination of Power
Yun Zhao believes that Xu Yuanshou is not a bad guy.
He is even a good person who considers the Yun family wholeheartedly.
However, in Yun Zhao's view, the most cruel person in the world is someone who thinks about you wholeheartedly.
People are not born exactly the same. Even twins cannot do this. The biggest thing a person who thinks about you can do in his life is to turn a person who originally has his own ideas into a person who thinks about you. He expects people to live.
Yun Zhao generally calls this behavior brainwashing.
Li Shimin has done this kind of thing, many emperors have done it, and Yun Zhao is doing it as well.
However, there is a difference. Li Shimin and others brainwashed their own descendants, while Yun Zhao brainwashed other people's descendants.
When the emperor makes rules, he must be greatly biased towards himself, that's for sure! ! !
When the government formulates laws and rules, it must be greatly biased towards itself, this is for sure! ! !
So, among the laws enacted by the Ming Dynasty today, the emperor has formulated some rules that are beneficial to his notification, and the government has formulated some rules that are beneficial to himself. So, how much is left for the people?
In the previous Ming Dynasty, when the rules were formulated, all the rules were in their favor. Therefore, the people had nothing. If the people wanted some power, they could only obtain it by bribing those in power. some purpose.
After doing this for a long time, Li Hongji’s entry into the capital was a smooth process.
Therefore, when Yun Zhao made rules, he first made rules that were beneficial to the people. He first reserved enough private land for the people, and then he began to consider the interests of the royal family and officials.
Even so, the benefits obtained by the common people are still not comparable to those of the royal family and officials.
On this basis, Yun Zhang and Yun Xian have not been on the same starting line as others since they were born. Therefore, Xu Yuanshou cannot educate Yun Zhang and Yun Xian to run faster.
Human greed is endless. When Yun Zhang and his two brothers discovered that they could reach the finish line before the fastest runner in the world by just moving a few steps. Sometimes, they may want to get closer to the finish line, or simply kill the faster guy.
People always have to move. Those who do not move are only dead. No matter whether they have breath or not, they are dead.
Therefore, it would be beneficial for these two children to let Yun Zhang and Yun Xian go to Ningxia Town to receive education.
The night got darker and the weather got colder. Yun Zhao put the clothes that Qian Duoduo brought him to keep out the cold and put them on the two children. He also threw a few pieces of charcoal into the brazier to make it warmer. Some.
Although Pei Zhong, Zhu Cunji and a group of courtiers were shivering in the cold wind, no one dared to walk into the funeral shed to help Yun Zhao do some chores.
Cloud tiger, cloudLeopard, Yun Jiao is here. The three of them are drunk. Each of them is wrapped in a thick fur coat. The three old men squeeze the two little grandchildren into the middle, and then sleep soundly in the tomb. stand up.
Yunzhao was left standing alone in the cold night, staring at the cold stars in the sky with a lot of thoughts.
Many people came to express condolences during the day, and Yun Zhao respectfully returned the favor to everyone who came to express condolences. Even if they were members of the Yun clan, Yun Zhao tried to be as considerate as possible.
When the Japanese, Koreans, Mongolians, and Uzbeans who stayed in Yushan City came, Yun Zhao was not so polite. His expression was cold, making it impossible to see the change in his mood.
Ten days passed quickly, and Yunmeng’s coffin finally arrived at Yushan City.
Yunjuan cried and placed Yunmeng's coffin into the mourning shed. At the request of Yunhu and others, the sealed coffin was opened.
The aroma in the coffin was fragrant, and there was no smell of rancid smell. However, Yunmeng, who used to be tall and powerful in the past, now looked very thin, and his facial features were slightly deformed. Fortunately, he The outline was still there, and Yun Zhao could still tell at a glance that this was his Uncle Meng.
Yunhu, Yunbao, and Yunjiao cried so hard that it was unbearable to watch. After all, the death of a brother who had relied on each other for a lifetime was a huge blow to the three of them.
After Yun Niang saw Yun Meng’s body, she took out a jade coin from her arms and put it in Yun Meng’s hand. After Yun Meng’s daughter Yun Cai took the children to see her grandfather’s appearance, , and ordered the coffin to be sealed.
Yunmeng’s coffin stayed at Yun’s mansion for another nine days, and then it was carried by Yunhu and a group of people and buried in the hidden cave in Yushan.
Yunhu and others knew that Yunmeng was a member of the Yun clan’s hidden clan after all, and could not be buried in Tushan Mountain with Yun Zhao’s father. In fact, Yunmeng was not willing to go there either. He had said a long time ago that after his death, he would accompany those bandit brothers who had endured hardship all their lives and had not benefited from the Yun family at all.
After Yunmeng was buried, documents about him came from Jiaozhi like snowflakes.
Qian Shaoshao’s documents arrived the fastest. It seemed that there was no conspiracy behind Yun Meng’s death and it was a normal death.
However, Qian Shaoshao’s documents contain a large amount of content about Hong Chengchou and Mu Tiantao.
Under the supervision of spies from the Ministry of Supervision, it was difficult for Hong Chengchou to hide his desire to live overseas.
At the same time, Yunmeng's expectations for Mu Tiantao were also expressed in the document.
As for Hong Chengchou's idea of serving as governor overseas, Yun Zhao finally agreed. Since he was unwilling to return to the country to serve, the governorship of Jiaozhi was a good position.
However, he can serve as governor, but he cannot hold military power. Yun Zhao said this very seriously, and there was no room for accommodation.
Today, the Hong Chengchou family has basically put all its power into the sea, and his family has completely withdrawn from profit.The landowner model of using land to survive has officially entered the ocean-going business model.
It seems that in the past two years, the Hong Chengchou family has gained a lot from sea trade, so much so that even a figure like Hong Chengchou, who can obviously enter the Lantian Center, would rather give up his high and powerful position and switch to And throw it into the ocean.
This smart man has already seen from Yun Zhao’s behavior that the main direction of development of the Lantian Imperial Court in the near future must be the ocean.
At this time, living on one thousand acres of land is not enough to support his huge family.
This person has been extremely rational all his life. Except for the battle with Dorgon in Liaodong, where he finally showed some bloodiness, the rest of the time, reason dominates this person.
With the existence of such people, the Hong family will definitely prosper.
Mu Tiantao is hard to say.
Yunzhao always felt it was inappropriate to say that he had given up on the old troops in Prince Mu's Mansion. However, whether this man's performance in the southwest or in Jiaozhi, what he did in the Champa Kingdom was remarkable. Delicious.
One of Yunmeng’s last words was that he hoped that Yun Zhao could reuse Mu Tiantao. He even believed that there was no better candidate for the commander of the Tiannan Army than Mu Tiantao.< /p>
He even believed that as long as Mu Tiantao was appointed as the commander, it would be just a matter of time to pacify the southwestern countries.
As for the final document, Qian Shaoshao just left Yunxiao behind. Jiaozhi's behavior was briefly mentioned, and he only said that Yunxiao was purging powerful people and wealthy people in Jiaozhi. As for the consequences of doing so, he did not want to ask.
< p>Jiaozhi must be merged into the Ming Dynasty in the future. Yun Zhao's opinion is clear on this point.However, this will be at least fifty years after Jiaozhi was ruled.
p>"Pass an order to promote Jin Hu to the rank of partial general. "
After reading Qian Shaoshao's documents, Yun Zhao issued the promotion order without any hesitation.
The important promotion orders of the Lantian Imperial Court will be published in "Lantian Daily"
The next day, after Zhu Yuwu got the flat ironed "Lantian Daily", she saw Jin Hu on the first page at the first glance. The order to be promoted to general.
She looked at the order eagerly, not even missing the punctuation. He even saw a typo in the document introducing Jin Hu's achievements.
She carefully corrected the typo on the newspaper with a pencil, and then, for some reason, hurriedly erased the word written in pencil.
After reading the newspaper, she used it. After breakfast, Zhu Yuwei left Zhu's Mansion in a small carriage. As usual, she personally inspected several of Zhu's shops in Chang'an City, discussed with the shopkeepers what to do next, and then returned to Zhu's Mansion. It's the same as usual.
As long as people stay in peace for a little longer, there will be a lot of strange things.Ideas pop up.
When Zhu Yuma returned home, she saw Queen Zhou angrily teaching a disobedient concubine.
After the death of the emperor, the Zhu dynasty ceased to exist, and all the privileges enjoyed by the Zhu family were deprived, some concubines were unwilling to be left alone, hoping to leave the prison of the Zhu Mansion and want a share of it. With a piece of property, I can live on my own.
In the past, Queen Zhou was naturally a talkative person in the harem, but now, these concubines thought they had the capital to resist.
Seeing that her mother was shaking with anger from this concubine, Zhu Yuwu came to the place where they were confronting.
She first glanced at her livid brother who was holding a scroll, and then said to her mother, Queen Zhou: "Since Concubine Liu wants to leave, let her go."
< p>Queen Zhou was shaking with anger and pointed at Concubine Liu and said: "This bitch actually messed up the palace."Concubine Liu sneered and said: "It's just a big courtyard, what other palace can I use?" Is it filthy? Your Majesty has not even touched me since I entered the palace at the age of fourteen. I have stayed in the palace for ten years and am still in perfect condition at the age of twenty-five. Doesn’t the Queen pity me?”
Empress Zhou said angrily: "Your family has enjoyed prosperity and wealth..."
Before Empress Zhou could finish her words, Concubine Liu laughed and said: "Prosperity and wealth? My natal family is seventy-one They all died in the hands of Li Hongji. This is the grace that your Majesty and the Queen gave me to the Liu family.
The men of the Liu family are all dead, and I am the only woman left alive.
< p>I don’t want men to go crazy, so I went to have sex with a groom. I just want a child and leave a stick of incense for Mrs. Liu. How about Mrs. Liu also have someone to visit the grave and burn paper? "< /p>Zhu Yuwu helped her mother sit down, and then said to Concubine Liu: "Let's go!"
Concubine Liu said angrily: "I want to take away my share."< /p>
Zhu Yawu took out a small gold ingot from her sleeve and threw it on the ground and said: "You were divorced by me, Mrs. Zhu."
