Chapter 858: Hundreds Of Civil And Military Officials With Their Own Ideas, It Is Difficult To Immig
Song Lian, the Minister of Rites, who stands in the position of the Six Ministers and Nine Ministers, is already seventy-eight years old this year and can be said to be very old. He has already reached the age where he can become an official.
But he still did not become an official. Except for Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Bapi, who was retained, on the one hand, it was because he was the oldest in the civil service group.
Other civil servants who were more senior than him, or those who were at the same time as him, either died in the rebellion cases of Hu Weiyong and Li Shanchang, or they had already died of illness.
If he also retreats, then the six ministers and nine ministers will inevitably lack the confidence to face the ten major princes of the Military Generals Group.
Therefore, he had to continue to stand in the court and support the civil service group.
On the other hand, the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty has not yet been decided. Except for the original prince Zhu Biao, King Zhu Di of Qin, King Zhu Fan of Jin, King Zhu Di of Yan, King Zhu Ji of Zhou, King Zhu Zhen of Chu, and King Zhu Su of Qi are all fake princes. Their status and treatment all have the inheritance rights of the second generation emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
Now that Zhu Yuanzhang is still alive, he can still suppress the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes from fighting each other.
But after Zhu Yuanzhang passes away, civil strife is likely to break out in Ming Dynasty due to the succession of the second emperor.
Now that the Ming Dynasty had just emerged from the shadow of the chaos of the late Yuan Dynasty, and had rarely entered a prosperous age unprecedented in ancient and modern times, Song Lian really did not want to see civil strife break out in the Ming Dynasty due to his position as emperor.
Therefore, before seeing Zhu Yuanzhang truly determine the candidate for the second emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Song Lian could not rest assured that he would serve as an official, and he would not even die in peace.
Therefore, Song Lian had been holding on for a while, and from time to time he would go to the palace to chat with Zhu Yuanzhang about the position of the second emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
If another minister had dared to interfere in the emperor's affairs like this, he would have been killed by Zhu Yuanzhang.
However, I don't know that Zhu Yuanzhang is getting older and his heart is a little softer.
I still feel that each of the ministers who have come through humble beginnings with me is missing.
In addition, Zhu Yuanzhang also knew that Song Lian was indeed dedicated to the public good. He was indeed worried that the choice of the second emperor of the Ming Dynasty might cause civil strife in the Ming Dynasty in the future, and he did not really want to interfere in the affairs of the emperor.
Moreover, Song Lian is really too old. A discerning old person will know at a glance that Song Lian is not going to die soon, and he may leave Hexi someday.
Just like Song Lian's wife, she had already taken the lead two years ago.
Therefore, in the face of Song Lian's nagging, Zhu Yuanzhang did not only avoid talking about it every time and took Song Lian to drink and eat together, but he also did not blame Song Lian.
And now Song Lian finally understood why Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to train King Zhu Fang of Qin, King Zhu Fan of Jin, King Zhu Di of Yan, King Zhu Ji of Zhou, King Zhu Zhen of Chu, and King Zhu Zun of Qi according to the standards of princes.
If the princes and vassal kings such as Qin Wang Zhu Fang, Jin Wang Zhu Fan, and Yan Wang Zhu Di were all enfeoffed in the country, then civil strife would definitely occur in the Ming Dynasty in the future.
But if the princes and vassal kings such as King Zhu Di of Qin, King Zhu Fan of Jin, and King Zhu Di of Yan were enfeoffed to other overseas continents, then civil strife would naturally not break out again in Ming Dynasty.
And listening to the introduction just now by Yu Sheng Boyi, other overseas continents seem to be very good as well.
Except that Oceania is slightly smaller than the Ming Dynasty, other parts of Europe are not much smaller than the Ming Dynasty.
South America, North America, Africa, etc. are much larger than the Ming Dynasty.
And these overseas continents do not sound barren. North America also has the most fertile black soil in the Ming Dynasty. South America is the origin of high-yielding food crops such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn. Other continents also have their own unique characteristics. benefits, etc.
They did not suffer any loss if they assigned princes and vassals such as King Zhu Di of Qin, King Zhu Fan of Jin, and King Zhu Di of Yan to these overseas continents.
In addition, this move can be regarded as opening up territory in a certain sense.
If the princes and vassal kings of Qin King Zhu Fang, Jin King Zhu Fan, Yan King Zhu Di, etc. can conquer other continents, then the Ming Dynasty will definitely become the dynasty with the largest territory in history, far beyond the Tang and Yuan Dynasties!
After all, even the Yuan Dynasty, which had the largest territory in history, only dominated Europe and Asia.
South America, North America, Oceania and the like were not covered by the Yuan Dynasty.
Thinking about it this way, it is indeed the best choice to entrust other vassal princes and princes to other overseas continents.
After thinking about this, Song Lian, who knew that civil strife would not break out again in the Ming Dynasty, had a smile on his face.
At the same time, other civil and military officials also thought of this.
They also finally understood why Zhu Yuanzhang wanted the princes and vassal kings such as Qin King Zhu Feng, Jin King Zhu Gang, Yan King Zhu Di, etc. to go to the local areas to serve as county magistrates and prefectural governors, and to lead the army to conquer the Japanese country eastward.
Everything is preparing for the subsequent enfeoffment of overseas states and the founding of feudal states on other continents.
What they even thought of was that the ten princes and vassal lords, including Qin King Zhu Di, Yin Zhu Zhu Jiao, Yan King Zhu Di, etc., immigrated to other overseas continents.
Then there must be relevant civil and military officials, right?!!
Otherwise, how could the princes and vassals of Qin, Zhu Gang, Jin, Yan, and other princes govern the place!!!
Although the kingdoms of the princes and vassal kings such as King Zhu Fang of Qin, King Zhu Fan of Jin, and King Zhu Di of Yan initially only had a population of one million, the population of the common people would soon become as large as one or twenty years of cultivation. It can become millions of people.
No matter how good the development is for three to fifty years, it will not be a problem for the population to exceed 10 million.
As long as the emperor does not mess around, and there are no natural disasters that seriously reduce the population, then at most a hundred years, this million people will become thousands of people!
Coupled with the size of the continents mentioned by Saint Boyi just now, they are basically not much smaller than the Ming Dynasty.
By then, the kingdoms of princes and vassals such as King Zhu Di of Qin, King Zhu Fan of Jin, and King Zhu Di of Yan had a population of tens of millions, and their territory was not inferior to that of the Ming Dynasty.
What kind of country is this? It is clearly a huge empire that is equal to the Ming Dynasty, and may even surpass the Ming Dynasty!!!
Such a huge empire, no, five empires, how many people can it accommodate in the future to become marquises and dukes!!!
All the civil and military officials were not stupid. With the Ming Dynasty annexing Goryeo and pacifying the Japanese state, the top-level interests in the Ming Dynasty have basically been roughly divided.
Just like the position of the Duke of the country, unless there is a major crisis in the Ming Dynasty in the future when the country is about to overthrow, then which civil servants and military generals can turn the tide from the fall, support the building from collapse, and then determine the country and the country of the Ming Dynasty.
In this way, it is possible to be granted the title of Duke of the country.
Otherwise, the Ming Dynasty would basically not make anyone else a Duke.
In other words, it would be basically impossible for them to make a prince in the Ming Dynasty.
However, if they follow the princes and vassal kings such as King Zhu Fang of Qin, King Zhu Fan of Jin, King Zhu Di of Yan, etc. to establish states in other continents overseas, and make great contributions to them.
Then as the vassal princes, princes and states develop and grow, their status will also rise accordingly.
In the future, in the kingdoms of princes and vassals such as King Zhu Di of Qin, King Zhu Fan of Jin, King Zhu Di of Yan, etc., it is not impossible to be granted the title of marquis or duke.
Of course, if you want to be granted the title of marquis or duke in the kingdoms of princes and vassals such as Qin King Zhu Fang, Jin King Zhu Fan, Yan King Zhu Di, etc., you will definitely have to make sacrifices and bear corresponding risks.
For example, once you are far away from your homeland and go to other overseas continents, you may not be able to return to the Central Plains and the Ming Dynasty in your lifetime.
Another example is the storm at sea. If you encounter huge waves and storms on the way to other overseas continents, then you will unfortunately be killed before you make achievements.
For another example, if you are not accustomed to the climate and climate, you have just traveled to another overseas continent. Who knows whether you can adapt to the environment and climate there? If you accidentally contract some local disease there, it will be the same.
There are various other risks and so on.
Generally speaking, if you want to seize the positions of marquis and duke of the princes, vassal states, etc., such as King Zhu Fang of Qin, King Zhu Fan of Jin, King Zhu Di of Yan, etc., you will also have to risk your life.
Just like today's Wei Guogong Xu Da, Cao Guogong Li Wenzhong, Xin Guogong Tang He and others, they are now able to be named Dukes, but they also took their lives to fight with Zhu Yuanzhang in the battlefield of swords and mountains and seas of fire when they were young, and they fought back and forth. Come.
It's just that most civil servants and generals today were born late, so they missed the opportunity to risk their lives to fight for the public position like Xu Da, Li Wenzhong, Tang He and others.
Moreover, now that the princes and vassal kings such as King Zhu Di of Qin, King Zhu Fan of Jin, and King Zhu Di of Yan have established kingdoms in other overseas continents, they have been given another opportunity to risk their lives to fight for the position of Duke.
It just depends on whether these civil and military officials and noble marquises dare to risk their lives.
Of course, there are also some civil and military officials and noble marquis who are quick to think, but they themselves do not dare to risk their lives.
But for the legitimate second sons and concubines in their family, they can consider following the princes and vassals such as Qin Wang Zhu Fang, Jin Wang Zhu Gang, Yan Wang Zhu Di and other princes and vassals to try their luck in other overseas continents.
If the fight fails, then all they will lose is a few legitimate sons and concubines.
If the fight is successful, then their family will branch out in other overseas continents.
If the main line of the main family declines in the future, maybe branches from other overseas continents can lend a hand to help.
Even if the main family commits a serious crime in the future and is exterminated, there will still be several branches in other overseas continents, and the family's legacy will not be cut off.
After all, even if the Emperor of Heaven wants to confiscate his family and exterminate his clan in the future, he can't confiscate his family and exterminate his clan in the kingdoms of other princes and princes.
So let the eldest son in the family inherit his title [or family business.
Then give other capable and talented second sons and concubines a generous sum of money, and let them follow a group of princes and princes to other overseas continents to fight for their lives.
This is also very consistent with the ancient practice of a family spreading its branches and spreading treasures in many ways.
Just when all the civil and military officials and noble marquises were in a state of mind because of the news announced by Zhu Yuanzhang, and they all had their own ideas, Ru Taisu, the Minister of Household Affairs, also took a step forward and admonished:
"."Your Majesty, now that the Great Tomorrow has been decided, people everywhere will be healthy and happy, have food and clothing, keep warm, and have peace of mind." "
"Under such circumstances, even if you want to immigrate one million people, it will be very difficult, let alone five Your Highnesses, who need to immigrate five hundred.
"If millions of people are forcibly relocated, the world may be in chaos!"
"Your Majesty, please think twice!"
If it were during the troubled times of the late Yuan Dynasty, then there would be no need to say anything else, as long as someone was willing to give the people in the troubled times of the late Yuan Dynasty a full meal, and then ask the people if they would like to follow him to an overseas continent without war.
Well, let alone some unfamiliar overseas continent, even in the corners of the world, there are countless people crying and begging for the other party to take them with them.
But now under the Ming Dynasty, not only everyone can have enough food and clothing, but at least the vast majority of the people can have enough food, clothing and clothing.
Worrying.
For ordinary people, when they can have enough food and clothing to support themselves and their family, who would be willing to follow the princes and princes to leave their hometown and travel across the ocean to that country?
I don’t know what continent to make a living on.
Therefore, under such circumstances, even if you want to gather one million people who are willing to immigrate to other overseas continents, it will be very difficult, let alone the five feudal princes and princes combined.
As many as five million people need to immigrate.
Although there are no specific statistics on the current population of the Ming Dynasty, it is estimated that in the past ten years, it should have increased from about 60 million (King Nuo's) in the early Ming Dynasty to
It is now between 70 million and 80 million.
This is equivalent to one-quarter to one-sixteenth of the current population of the Ming Dynasty!
Once the forced conquest aroused public resentment, so many people of the Ming Dynasty started to make a fuss. It is not an exaggeration to say that it shook the country of the Ming Dynasty!
Therefore, as Ru Taisu, the Minister of Household Affairs in charge of the world's household registration population, he had to stand up and give advice.
Hearing what the Minister of the Ministry of Finance said, all the civil and military officials and noble marquises reacted immediately.
The current situation in the Ming Dynasty is really difficult to handle if one million people want to immigrate, or as many as five million people.
But if millions of people cannot immigrate, then it will be impossible for princes and vassal kings such as King Zhu Di of Qin, King Zhu Fan of Jin, and King Zhu Di of Yan to establish kingdoms in other overseas continents.
It's nonsense.
And if a group of vassal princes cannot establish kingdoms in other overseas continents, then their positions of Duke and Marquis will be the same as those of their legitimate second son or concubine.
Hasn’t this vision just become a dream?! Life!
This is not possible. Since we have said that we want to establish a country overseas, we have to establish a country overseas. Otherwise, how can they or their legitimate second sons or concubines become Dukes or Marquises of the country?
Lord!!!
However, it can’t be that the Ming Dynasty is rarely prosperous and stable, and they artificially create some “natural and man-made disasters” to force people to choose to immigrate to other overseas continents, right?!!
If they really do this, I don’t know whether they can successfully immigrate to other overseas continents in the end, but after doing such an immoral thing, they will definitely be remembered in history books.
Thousands of years.
