Longevity Begins with Jinyiwei

Chapter 184: The monarch regards the minister as a mustard, and the minister regards the monarch as

"The monarch regards the minister as grass, and the minister regards the monarch as the enemy!"

This famous sentence originated from Mencius, and was once deleted by Zhu Yuanzhang's personal order. In the current storm sweeping the Ming Dynasty, it has spread unknowingly in this undercurrent.

Throughout history, any reform, any violation of the interests of vested interest groups, all means bloodshed!

The same is true of today's Daming!

What Li Xiu and Zhu Youjian violated were the interests of the entire group of rulers, not the interests of a single faction.

The so-called attracting a group and attacking a group is basically impossible when this fact has been established.

In this situation, in the face of the backlash of the entire ruling class, there is no doubt that people who have done this in any generation will end up dead without a place to die.

But this time in the Ming Dynasty and Chongzhen years was different from every reform in previous history, and it was more accidental.

In a war that threatened the national fortune, Li Xiu took advantage of the situation to tear apart the rules that stretched for dozens of hundreds of years in the Ming Dynasty. By virtue of the great victory, the most important military power was also taken away from the hands of the civil servants and honorable officials of the Ming Dynasty. take away.

Although the Governor of Jingji has been resigned, he is now the Marquis of Zhenbei.

Yongwei, Jingying, Xuanfu, Jizhen, the two armies and two towns almost included the political center of the Ming Dynasty, and even most of the military power in the north, all of which were held by Li Xiu, a hero... Now the usurper in the mouths of the ministers The scourge of the country is in the hands of Wang Mang, Huo Guang and Dong Zhuo.

Military generals use military power to force the court, and use their military power to intimidate the world!

The emperor did not regard this military force as a scourge, feared it and even suppressed it, but instead helped it grow, regarded it as a confidant, and relied on its power!

This kind of situation, throughout history, is also unprecedented.

Such a strange and unbelievable combination is now overwhelming the civil and military, and they are all breathless.

Even though they were resourceful, exhausted all means, and even resorted to taking risks and doing diabolical things, the general trend was still rolling down, without the slightest stagnation...

Dogs jump over the wall in a hurry, people are in a hurry, what will they do? A huge interest group is forced to be anxious, what will it do?

This question has been circling in Li Xiu's mind for many days.

Although he did not participate in the political affairs, he naturally knew the news clearly.

In fact, the storm originated in Jingying, but in fact, from the very beginning, most of the contradictions did not lie in Jingying.

It is the conflict and contradiction between imperial power and vassal power!

The current situation is under the deterrence of Bingfeng and Zhu Youjian's drastic measures.

The imperial power that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty had lost for many years is about to rise again!

The rise of imperial power must be followed by the decline of ministerial power!

And where does the lordship come from?

Since the emperor Hongwu came to the world, his ministers were like ants. At that time, the emperor was angry and buried millions of corpses.

Yonglejing is rare in the world. He is also the emperor on horseback, with great power in his hands, and his ministers are no different from ants!

After that, in the long history, what was written was the struggle between vassal power and imperial power!

How many people have worked so hard to hold the power in their hands, and to put the imperial power that can take human life in one thought, and the imperial power that turbulent the world in one thought, locked in a cage, locked in that deep palace!

nowadays…

Who wants to live and die in the minds of others?

Who wants to change from a chess player who overlooks all living beings to a chess piece that is driven by others, with a single thought between life and death!

Taking risks is obviously inevitable and has become a fact.

nowadays…

How far can they go to the extreme?

Or, where else could they take the risk?

Li Xiu caressed his forehead lightly in the Jingying tent in the northern suburbs, and his eyebrows were full of thoughts.

A country, military and political, is the foundation.

Today, in the army, the foundation has already existed, although it is not stable, but there is no big obstacle.

But one of the politics, he Li Xiu, can be said to have no foundation. Of course, if it is not necessary, he will not get involved in political affairs.

Everything is due to Zhu Youjian, the emperor.

No matter how much Zhu Youjian has tossed around now, relying on the military might, his foundation in government affairs can undoubtedly be said to be fragile.

The vast Ming Dynasty, whether it is the prosperous and prosperous Jiangnan, or the now chaotic Northland, or the civil service group that has lasted for hundreds of years in the Ming Dynasty is in power.

Behind every court official, there are incomparably intricate interest relationships.

Moreover, although the military is powerful and prosperous today, the environment of the noble and the military still exists.

It is true that the world cannot be completely black, but under the influence of each intricate relationship, every turmoil in the capital will spread to the whole world at an extremely fast speed.

Following this, every thought of the princes of the Manchu Dynasty in the capital court can also affect the entire future!

In the era of cronies fighting against aliens, the interests of the country and the monarch are not worth mentioning before the interests of individuals and cronies.

This is also the reason why the Shuntian Prefecture, where the measures for relief and resettlement are extremely perfect, had civil turmoil, then the Yansui mutiny in Shaanxi, and the three governors could be ambushed and killed by thieves!

Such a huge and complex system is the foundation of the existence of this great Ming Dynasty, but at some point, under the use of people with a heart, it will also become the source of turmoil for the country.

The night is deep.

In the Qianqing Palace, the lights are still bright.

Different from the depression in the previous palace, since that great victory, the Qianqing Palace, and even the entire palace, followed the joy of the emperor's dragon face, swept away the depression of the past, and the eunuchs and maids did not need to tremble and startle as before. ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I am afraid that if I am not careful, I will end up with a cane.

In the hall at this moment, the laughter and laughter kept coming.

Obviously, at this point in time, there is still such laughter in the hall, and it must be the emperor who is playing with the little prince who has only been playing for a few months.

Perhaps the lesson of Emperor Tianqi was too profound. After the queen was pregnant, the emperor completely replaced the eunuchs and maids in the queen's bedroom. The emperor is also always looking after this little prince.

Under the prestige of the mother and the son, Zhu Youjian has become more and more fond of this Queen of Zhou. Now, it seems that there are three thousand in the harem, and I feel that I love only one person.

There were cheers and laughter in the hall, and outside the hall, the Han General of Jinyiwei stood. The brave guard who once guarded here, after Zhu Youjian's control of the inner palace deepened, he also returned to the brave guard camp early. Guard at the palace.

When the cheers and laughter in the hall dissipated, and after about an hour or so, the eunuchs and palace maids retreated to the outside of the hall one after another.

Obviously, it's time for the emperor to rest.

Time passed little by little, the night was quiet, and the bright moon hung high.

When it should have been quiet, a palace maid suddenly walked out of the Qianqing Palace, walking to the side of a general of Jinyiwei who was serving outside the palace, seemed to say something in a low voice, and then hurried away.

Immediately, after these few big Han generals standing outside the hall, after looking at each other, they seemed to have a plan, and they were also careful to go to the Qianqing Palace, which was supposed to be forbidden to them without order.

The lights were bright and the curtains fluttered.

But... the color of blood suddenly appeared!
