LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 42
The emperors continued to watch the video released by Qin Feng.
After the death of the absurd emperor Zhu Houzhao, perhaps the smartest Jiajing among the emperors of the Ming Dynasty finally appeared.
He is a natural strategist, just after his first ascension to the throne, the Great Rites Discussion incident drove the elders of the three dynasties, the first assistant of the cabinet Yang Tinghe from power, and he took sole power at a young age and controlled the government.
Jiajing produced countless celebrities in one dynasty, the traitorous ministers Yan Song, Yan Shifan father and son, Qingliu leaders Xu Jie, Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng, they all have extraordinary means, extremely smart, you sing and I appear, and the court has become their stage.
This is an era of great scheming, and these people are all ceiling-level ministers.
The bloody struggle between them, the conspiracy of power, and the ancient emperors were all stunned.
The ministers and officials of the historical dynasties were all dumbfounded, watching how these high-ranking ministers left their brilliant and colorful strokes in the Jiajing Dynasty.
"My God, is it so hard to be a minister?".
"If the old man was an official in Jiajing, I am afraid he would not live for three days. "
"It's too hard. Not to mention Yan Song and Zhang Juzheng, even Zheng Bichang and He Maocai are full of hearts. "
"I can't play, I can't play, it's too difficult. "
The ministers of the Qin, Han, Tang, Song and other dynasties were impressed.
If you talk about power and scheming, it has to be a flower played by the Ming Dynasty, and they really sigh to themselves.
In addition to the above-mentioned people, there are also national heroes Qi Jiguang and lonely ministers Hai Rui, who also add bright colors to this era.
Just like Qin Feng's comments in the video.
"It's the best of times and it's the worst of times. The big waves washed the sand, and countless golden cattle people rushed to leave their lives in this era. "
"They may shine through the ages, or they may be left behind for thousands of years, but their lives are destined to be magnificent. "
"Oh my God, is this the streamer's comment? I didn't expect him to be so substantial. 」
"Love, love, love, not only erudite but also very literary, and so good-looking, what a treasure anchor. 」
"It's a pity, if the anchor could sing, dance, rap and play basketball, he would have been able to go to the entertainment industry to make a name for himself, so why be a little anchor here?"
Da Qin, Princess Yingyin infatuated with a look back at what Qin Feng said, and muttered to herself: "I didn't expect Brother Qin to say such thought-provoking words, he is really not an ordinary person. "
Datang, Li Li held her chin, looked at the video released by Qin Feng, and thought back to that handsome and handsome face, she couldn't help but blush slightly, and her breathing became short.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?
The little son quietly walked over and quipped.
"You little girl, you don't study well at such a young age, where did you come from, brother-in-law?".
Li Li said angrily.
"Hehe, of course it's Qin Feng's brother-in-law, you must be thinking about him, right?"
The little son showed two small tiger teeth.
"I ...... I didn't. "
Li Li said in a panic: "People are people after 1800 years, I can be the ancestor of his ancestors, how can we have results?"
The little son insisted: "That's not necessarily, maybe when the miracle will happen again, my brother-in-law will come to our era from the afterlife." "
Li Li looked at the sky blankly: "Will it?"
Great Song Dynasty, Master Li of the capital city Oiran chewed on what Qin Feng said, showing a satisfied smile.
"It seems that the slave family's wishful Langjun has finally been found, even if it is 1800 years later, the slave family will be waiting for you. "
The video continues to play.
After the Jiajing Dynasty, he spent several dynasties of Ming Muzong Zhu Zaiyuan, Mingshenzong Zhu Yijun, Mingguangzong Zhu Changluo, and Ming Xizong Zhu Youxiao.
During this period, the Ming Dynasty has gradually declined from being strong, the imperial court is gradually corrupt, eunuchs are in power, party strife is everywhere, and everyone is desperately trying to grab power for themselves as long as they have a little power.
In this stormy situation, Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen finally took over the burden of the empire.
"Have you finally arrived?"
Zhu Youzhen clenched his fists, his heart pounding.
He had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
What is his fate, what will happen to Daming, and whether he is worthy of his ancestors and ancestors, these are all things that Zhu Youzhen wants to know.
The video released by Qin Feng was fast-paced, and it took a few minutes to tell the story of Zhu Youzhen's life.
From the time he began to ascend the throne and become the emperor, to fighting fires everywhere like a firefighter, he was obviously an emperor, but he was as poor as a beggar, the dragon robe was mended and mended, and three meals a day were coarse tea and light rice, even more bitter than Zhu Yuanzhang's.
But even if he is like this, the Ming Dynasty is still poor day by day, but there are more and more disasters in various places, and the common people can't eat, so they have uncovered the uprising.
Zhu Youzhen was anxious and tried all kinds of methods, but the final result was always unsatisfactory.
The most serious problem is the lack of money!
Zhu Youzhen even abandoned the dignity of the emperor and begged the ministers of the imperial court and the relatives of the emperor to help the Ming Dynasty and donate some silver taels at this time of national crisis.
But none of the high-ranking officials in the capital were willing to take the money, and what was even more ironic was that Zhu Youzhen's father-in-law, Zhou Kui, actually took the lead in resisting the donation, saying that his family was very poor and had no silver or two.
In the end, his daughter Empress Zhou couldn't stand it anymore and quietly gave Zhou Kui 10,000 taels of silver to donate to the imperial court.
But after Zhou Kui took the silver, he secretly hid more than half of it, and only gave Emperor Chongzhen more than 2,000 taels.
As a matter of fact.
Zhou Kui also has the imperial relatives and veteran ministers in the capital, all of whom are masters with thousands of dollars in their pockets and spending a lot of money.
After Li Zicheng entered the capital, he tortured these people and looted 20 million taels of silver!
What is this concept?
During the reign of Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youzhen, the tax revenue of the imperial court was only 8 million taels a year.
In the end, the fate of these corrupt officials was very miserable, and Zhu Youzhen also hanged himself on the coal mountain after Li Zicheng entered the capital.
After reading his life, Zhu Youzhen was about to explode.
He has just finished calling on the emperor's relatives and important ministers of the court to donate.
His father-in-law Zhou Kui did only donate 2,000 taels of silver, and Zhu Youzhen was still so moved at that time that he felt that his family had to be reliable.
The results are good.
It turned out that all this money was Queen Zhou's private money.
Zhu Youzhen feels like a living clown!
"Bastards! a bunch of bastards!".
"Someone!".
He scolded so loudly that he was about to vomit blood.
"In!".
The Jinyiwei command room quickly appeared in front of Zhu Youzhen.
"You, immediately gather the Jinyi guards in the whole city, take down all the old ministers and imperial relatives, and raid the houses one by one, but remember not to hurt their lives!"
Zhu Youzhen was not dizzy, and still retained a trace of reason.
Daming is already in turmoil, and he can't do anything by relying on him alone, and he has to rely on these people in the end.
Just raid the house, and leave a way for them to live, which can be regarded as the end of benevolence and righteousness.
Don't ask for money and life, push these people into a hurry, maybe something will happen.
