I am the king of the dead

"Moreover, Jiang Wan, Marquis of Dingxi, personally broke through the north gate of Xuzhou to meet the king's division."

"Why does Your Majesty treat his ministers, workers, and people as enemies? The people, ministers, and people of Nanzhili are also His Majesty's people, ministers, and people."

Zhu Qiyu used the rebellion as an excuse, and Chen Yi also argued that the loyalty of the Ming Dynasty during the rebellion was the right, and he did not force his words.

The eloquent and eloquent Feng Xianyan official has already achieved his style. If Zhu Qiyu does not convince Chen Yi today, the issue of splitting Nanzhili will become a Nikkei issue.

And it is very likely to bring new court and local conflicts.

At that point, it is better not to dismantle it.

Zhu Qiyu asked seriously: "Then Mr. Chen, I'm here to ask you, have you read the third question in the annotated edition of the memorabilia between me and Li Xian? Is it the struggle between private rights and public rights?"

Chen Yi replied loudly: "Chen, I have seen it."

Zhu Qiyu asked calmly: "Thirty percent of the population, forty percent of the taxes, half of the courtiers, forty percent of the provincial examination candidates, and nearly [-] percent of the sea merchants and ships, such a huge area, entangled, and their combined forces have attracted the attention of the world and rebelled. I have been born, I have not gone south for a long time, and finally conquered the rebellion myself."

"Chen Zongxian, I'm here to ask you, what should I do if I rebel again in the future? Will I lead millions of soldiers and kill Jiangnan completely!"

Chen Yi raised his head and asked in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, how can you betray the Ming Dynasty in the land where the Ming Dynasty prospers?"

"It's a rebellious minister holding an axe in his hand, and he has to submit to his lustful power, but wherever His Majesty's army goes, they eat pots of pulp to welcome the king's teacher. Doesn't this justify, does my Ming Dynasty have people's support?"

"Da Ming doesn't have the possibility of these people's rebellion succeeding, Your Majesty!"

Chen Yi's words are the same as Yu Qian's words at the beginning. Except for the people fighting for their lives and the princes fighting for the way, there is indeed no stage for merchants to rebel.

Facts have also proved that their rebellion, apart from the timing being right, not even Sun Jizong's father, Sun Zhong, wanted to rebel.

Hearing what Chen Yi said, Zhu Qiyu finally showed a smile, and Chen Yi fell into his logic.

When the ruler and his ministers are right, the ruler is the most powerful one, sitting on a three-foot-high platform, while the minister kneels on the ground.

But as long as the emperor is not a fool, he will always hold the initiative of discourse.

It's not that Zhu Qiyu is so eloquent, but that he is the representative of the imperial power sitting there. Chen Yi opposes the emperor's order in the rules of courtiers, after all, it is difficult to reach the sky.

He continued to ask: "Then my Ming court's guidelines, such as Douhu, balance, seal, benevolence and righteousness, cannot pass through the Nanya. Does Chen Zongxian mean that if you don't raise an army, it is not considered a rebellion?"

"I dare not. The heart of not being a minister is also treason, treason, and great treason!" Chen Yi was terrified, and hurriedly said.

"Chen Zongxian, do you know what I experienced in Nanya?" Zhu Qiyu continued to ask.

Chen Yi thought about it seriously and said, "I know part of it, but I don't know the details."

Yu Qian stood up and told everything about Nan Ya, except for Chen Wanniang, and even the matter of Ran Siniang sending a letter from Bozhou to Nan Ya.

"Before the first Meixiang Tower, His Majesty first persuaded in Yanyun Tower, then Zhang Huangbang persuaded, and then went to Meixiang Tower to personally persuade, and had no choice but to raise troops."

"The second time, His Majesty repeatedly announced, and even told those people, how to deal with them, but he will not die until the Yellow River, and will not cry when he sees the coffin."

"Benevolence is exhausted."

Yu Qian's speech was very long, and it took nearly half an hour to explain clearly everything about His Majesty in Nanya.

What Zhu Qiyu sent back to Beiya was not much, only Li Xianliu asked, splitting up Nanya, etc. In fact, the courtiers only knew what happened, but they didn't know why it happened.

For example, why Chen Yi said, why does His Majesty regard ministers, workers and people as enemies, is based on this speech.

In fact, in the eyes of the courtiers, His Majesty is just going to suppress the rebellion, arrest people, put coal, kill a group, make a fortune, kill a group, make another fortune, force a group to death, and make another fortune. Pen.

The Jiangnan gentry, merchants, and potential are going to be tossed enough.

It's not so much a counter-insurgency, it's more like a robbery!

What exactly is the emperor doing and why did he do that? The courtiers went to inquire, didn't they want to know how many bowls of rice the emperor had eaten?

Even Zhu Zhanqian didn't know very well, but only knew that some of His Majesty had suffered a lot of grievances in Nanya.

It wasn't until Yu Qian explained the key points clearly that all the courtiers in Fengtian Hall were ashamed.

"Your Majesty, I have no intention of disobedience!" Chen Yi knocked heavily on the ground.

In fact, he took off all the crowns and belts, and he was ready to be beheaded by His Majesty who was enraged today.

He can die as a straight minister, but he cannot accept the ending of a rebellious minister.

Chen Yi was already cursing in his heart!

What a bunch of donkeys!

Your Majesty has already arrived in Nanjing City, and you want to let Your Majesty taste the power?And His Majesty broke his own words?

Your Majesty is a clear card!

"Have I ever regarded my ministers and workers as enemies?" Zhu Qiyu asked.

Chen Yi said loudly: "Never! Your Majesty is benevolent and righteous!"

"Then when I split up Nanzhili, did Mr. Chen have any objections?" Zhu Qiyu asked again.

Chen Yi still said loudly: "Your Majesty, you can take it slowly."

"The minister thought that the chief secretary could be divided into left and right first, and still managed by the six yamen in Nanjing, and then he would plan to split it up in the future. Such a direct split will make the world's scholars panic."

Chen Yi's idea is actually quite good, just to persuade His Majesty to take a slower pace.

That's what Zhu Qiyu planned before leaving Beijing.

First set up the left and right chief ministers, and then cut the flesh with blunt knives, using the emperor Taizu's art of war to cut every inch, like cutting sausages, little by little, and finally cut Nanzhili into the shape Zhu Qiyu wants now.

But after arriving in Nanjing, things happened little by little, and Zhu Qiyu's inner thoughts changed little by little.

Zhu Qiyu thought for a long time and said: "How about this, Chen Zongxian replaces Jiangnan governor Li Xian, and goes to Yingtianfu to take care of things for a few days?"

"Huh?" Chen Yi was stunned.

Zhu Qiyu said very confidently: "Chen Zongxian is also from Jiangnan, so he knows more about the customs there, right? For a change, try Li Xian's difficulties."

Li Xian worked in Nanya Puppet Dynasty for less than eight months, and he forced Li Xian to ask fourteen questions. When Zhu Qiyu answered his six questions, he had to introduce the concept of surplus value to explain it. clear.

You must know that there are still eight questions from Li Xian, waiting for Zhu Qiyu to answer them!

Zhu Qiyu had no choice but to slip away.

If the eight questions are answered, he will have to explain to Li Xian why the Great Emperor didn't lead the world's ministers and workers to realize Internaxionel and completely eliminate Zhanpao.

Being able to force Li Xian to such an extent shows how precarious the situation in Nanzhili is.

Chen Yi thought about it seriously, and just about to answer, Chen Yi was about to agree to go to Nanya for a try.

Isn't it just a Nan Ya?Li Xian can do it, why can't Chen Yi do it!

He is a native of Zhili, what trouble can happen!

If it can be done well, His Majesty will be able to withdraw the order of direct splitting, and if it is done slowly, there will be many opportunities, such as setting the capital of Suzhou Province in Suzhou instead of Xuzhou.

Just as he was about to answer, a small yellow door hurried in from outside the hall, holding a memorial with a gold plaque in his hand, and rushed into Fengtian Hall.

When Xiao Huangmen entered, he fell and rolled, then stood up immediately, and handed the memorial to the eunuch under the platform.

All the ministers looked at this scene, what happened so urgently that made the internal officials so panicked?

Chapter 386 Your Majesty is indeed His Majesty!

Zhu Qiyu removed the golden plate and opened the memorial, which was Yuan Bin's memorial.

Yuan Bin still did not give up the plan of exchanging Li Xian's head for a reward card, and he was still staring at Li Xian in Nanjing.

It was delivered in such a hurry, with a gold plate hanging on it, it seemed that something big had happened.

"What a guts!" Zhu Qiyu said sharply.

Li Xian was assassinated. If Yuan Bin did not protect him, he would have gone to see Emperor Gao, but he was also injured.

Before Zhu Qiyu left, he had said that it was fine to let Li Xian follow him back to Beiya, otherwise he would be gone one day in Nanya.

Li Xian committed suicide with a [-]-gun shot in the back, which was about to happen. If Yuan Bin hadn't been astute and saved Li Xian, Li Xian might have committed suicide.

Zhu Qiyu handed out the memorial, and Yu Qian, Liubu Shangshu, Wenyuan Pavilion, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate didn't care about anything, and looked at it for a long time.

After reading the memorial, Chen Yi hung up the fish talisman, put on his girdle, fitted his official hat, and said angrily, "Tear it down!"

"Tear him down!"

"It's the other way around!"

Chen Yi was furious. He had already planned to do something for his hometown.

It's not for profit, but to make my hometown less messy, at least there is a backbone.

But now, all the efforts Chen Yi made before His Majesty returned to Beijing have become a joke. Here we say that Nanzhili has no second thoughts!Over there, the Jiangnan governor who was placed by the imperial court in Nanya was assassinated!

Isn't this a joke?

Chen Yi fully understood His Majesty's determination to split up Nanzhili, and why His Majesty, who used to take small steps quickly, took such big steps.

Chen Yi said viciously: "No matter how big the resistance is, this matter has to go on! The township exam is coming soon, if you don't want to take the exam, just stay at home!"

The imperial examination is held every three years, and this year is the time for the provincial examination. The provincial examination used to be held in the capitals of the 13 provinces in the two capitals, but now it is the capital of the 16 provinces in the two capitals (Jiajing’an, Fengyang, and Suzhou).

Can you take the imperial examination?

If you don't want to take the imperial examination, then you can go to the imperial examination. If you want to take the imperial examination, you can obediently go to the Luzhou and Xuzhou governments of the Sansizhi Office to take the exam!

How many candidates are there?

There are a total of 130 quota candidates in Zhili area in the north of Gyeonggi Province, and Suncheon Prefecture alone has more than 800 scholars for reference.

And Baoding Mansion, Yongping Mansion, Zhending Mansion, Hejian Mansion, Shunde Mansion, Guangping Mansion, and Daming Mansion have a total of more than [-] people.

More than 5000 talents competed for the 130 five places.

This is still North Zhili, and South Zhili has nearly 300 scholars every year, competing for more than [-] places.

Can only be a scholar who can take the exam.

A scholar can be called a scholar after three exams: the county examination, the government examination, and the college examination.

For example, in the simplest county examination, only those who have committed crimes within three generations can sign up. Five people who take the same exam will guarantee each other, and five people who cheat will sit together;

After the county examination, it is the government examination and the hospital examination to be a scholar!

Scholars are divided into three classes, Linsheng, Zengsheng and Epiphysis.

Among them, the granary students were the students with the best grades. The government gave them monthly rations.

Linsheng is also the main figure in the imperial examination.

Hyperplasia and epiphysis generally seldom travel long distances to Shenqiuwei. The journey is long, expensive, and prone to danger. Only Linsheng can hope to pass the exam.

Therefore, when Chen Yi picked up the fish talisman, it basically meant that he did not intend to speak out for the splitting of Nanzhili.

Zhu Qiyu took back the memorial and put it in his sleeve. He now has two memorials in his sleeve, one is the memorial of the 20-mile waterway, and the other is the memorial of Li Xian's attack.

Zhu Qiyu took a deep breath and said, "So, is there anyone who opposes the splitting of Nanzhili?"

The resistance of the Ming Dynasty to split Nanzhili mainly came from the imperial court and local officials.

The pull of the Ming Dynasty to split Nanzhili mainly came from the emperor.

But now that we have made a deal and objected, we have to weigh these recent things.

Splitting up Nanzhili is neither killing people nor moving wealthy households to Beijing, but just splitting them up administratively.

Nearly half of the officials headed by Chen Yi shouted loudly: "Your Majesty is wise."

Your Majesty is right, and His Majesty is right to make such an urgent decision. The situation in Jiangnan cannot wait any longer.

If we wait any longer, Nanzhili will become a behemoth that even the imperial court can't do anything with. At that time, it will be impossible to dismantle it.

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said: "Therefore, I hope that the Qiu Wei in Fengyang Province, Suzhou Province, Yingtian Mansion and Songjiang Mansion can be carried out in each capital this autumn."

"The ministers are waiting for the order." All the ministers bowed their heads and said yes.

Li Xian is an unlucky guy, always so unlucky, but he gave Zhu Qiyu ammunition.

Zhu Qiyu continued to speak: "I have decided to dredge the [-]-mile waterway of the Yangtze River, and I have already sent people to investigate."

Liu Ji and other Wen Linlang went to survey the waterways of the Yangtze River, and conducted a comprehensive review of the waterways that are prone to stranding and sinking ships, mainly the main roads.

This is also the reason why Songjiang Mansion was divided separately.

The ministers were discussing this matter, and everyone had different opinions on this matter. In fact, Yu Shaobao and His Majesty's original intention to promote this matter was good, but the [-]-mile waterway could easily become Yang Guangxiu's Grand Canal.

His Majesty has declared that it will take ten years of work, and the 20-mile waterway is a century-old project!
