Chapter 139 Discussion With Lao Zhu (Subscribe)
“Father, I am not interested in that position.
“It’s not for me there either!”
When he opened his mouth, this was the first time he had spoken out to the outside world, and he had spoken out to his father, his wife and children.
Ming dynasty.
Maybe countless people fantasize.
Imagination ascends to that supreme throne.
Zhu Biao died.
Whether it is King Jin, King Yan, or even the fifth child, they are all interested.
King Yan even directly launched the Battle of Jingnan.
After King Yan, Zhu Gaojiu also launched a rebellion.
Then there is King Ning.
Then there is Manchu.
Everyone, every existence is constantly chasing that position.
For them, it was the biggest dream of their life.
It is also the greatest hope.
But Zhu Bo is really not interested in that position.
As I said before, what he is interested in is the Chinese rivers and mountains, the heaven and earth, the world, not the corner of the Ming Dynasty.
If he hadn’t awakened his golden finger, Zhu Bo might still have a little bit of coveting for that position.
At this time, when Goldfinger awakened, when he had already established a huge foundation overseas, he would not have much enthusiasm for that piece of land.
Compared with what he can do in the entire Ming Dynasty, he can do more in Southeast Asia, in the Americas, and in Europe.
It’s just that this scheming has never been said.
Even for Lan Yu, for Lan Xia’er, and for Wu Hui.
Until this moment, when Lao Zhu asked him if he was willing to be the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, he spoke for the first time.
When the words were finished, his heart couldn’t help but let out a long breath at this moment. 847
At this moment, his eyes also turned to Lao Zhu again.
And listening to Zhu Bo’s words, Lao Zhu’s body trembled, and there was an unbelievable look in his pupils.
He never thought that when he said these words, he would be rejected by Zhu Bo.
Even if he didn’t really think it through.
But Zhu Bo’s refusal exceeded all his expectations, making his expression completely stunned.
How many peeps at that position, was actually rejected in front of him.
“Why?”
Old Zhu couldn’t help but hesitantly, and he opened his mouth to ask.
“Then why did the royal father move the capital?”
Listening to Lao Zhu’s question, Zhu Bo didn’t answer directly, but asked rhetorically.
“Moving the capital?”
Old Zhu was stunned for a moment.
On the fourth day of the first lunar month in 1368, Lao Zhu was in the position of “the emperor on the sun of Zhongshan Mountain, and the name of the world was named Daming in the southern suburbs, so this year was the first year of Hongwu.” The Ming Dynasty began from then on. It is puzzling that he said nothing about the capital. Lao Zhu once said: “I only build the foundation of the state, take the foundation of the great cause and the prosperity of the king as the first, and take the middle and summer to govern the Quartet, and the scale of the establishment of the country is the most important.
From June 6, the first year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang personally arrived in Kaifeng to Hongwu for twenty-four years, and sent Zhu Biao to inspect Chang’an.
Lao Zhu successively excluded Kaifeng, Fengyang, and Chang’an.
Shortly after Zhu Biao’s death, Lao Zhu made a mournful statement in “Sacrificing the Kitchen God of Guanglu Temple”: “I have run the world for decades, and everything is in accordance with the ancient thread. Only the Miyagi is high in front and back, and the situation is not suitable. I originally wanted to move the capital, but now I am old, and my energy is exhausted. The world is new and I don’t want to work for the people. And there are a lot of waste and prosperity, so I have to listen to the gods.” It revealed the helplessness of the unfinished move of the capital, as well as the worry about the country’s society.
There are countless possibilities for the people who eat melons in later generations as to why they insist on moving the capital.
But for Lao Zhu, the reason is actually very simple.
On the one hand, Nanjing was really unsuitable to be the capital. On the other hand, due to the great chaos at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the Central Plains withered, while the South was almost intact, resulting in the unprecedented strength of the southern gentry.
Only by moving the capital can we balance the relationship between the two.
Otherwise, the South will grow stronger and stronger, and the whole country will inevitably be divided.
At this time, when Zhu Bo asked, Lao Zhu vaguely guessed something, and his eyes had a slight cold light.
After a moment of silence, Lao Zhu suddenly looked at Lan Xia’er and Wu Hui.
Facing the eyes of Lao Zhu.
Although Lan Xia’er and Wu Hui were still shocked, they reacted instantly.
“Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the concubines retire!””
When the words opened, the two bowed directly and retreated.
By the way, the door was also closed.
Waiting for the two to leave completely.
Lao Zhu’s eyes turned to Zhu Bo, and he spoke again after a moment of silence.
“Twelve, you know that there is no one who cannot be killed in this world.
“During the Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu once said that when there is no talent in the world, people can’t recognize it, and if you can recognize it, why worry about no one! The so-called talent is like a useful tool. Just the same, don’t kill He Shi!
The voice is long, but the words that can be said are so cold at this moment.
As for Lao Zhu’s words, it was the dialogue between Ji An and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
Ji An admonished: “Your Majesty is very laborious in seeking virtuous talents, but he has not used them to the fullest, and he has already killed them. If the limited men are punished without restraint, the ministers fear that the world’s virtuous talents will be exhausted. Who will rule with you, Your Majesty? He was very angry, and he laughed and said: “When there is no talent in this world, people can’t recognize it, and if you can recognize it, why worry about no one! The so-called talent is like a useful tool, and the talent is not willing to exhaust it. Use is the same as having no talent, not killing He Shi!”
In vernacular words, Ji An said, Your Majesty, if you continue to kill like this, there will be no talents in the world to govern the country together. Emperor Wu of the Han said: “Don’t be stupid, the talents in the world can’t be killed. We are not lacking talents, but lack of discovery. The eye of talent.
In this case, the meaning of Lao Zhu’s words is also very obvious.
Someone is blocking you, (ccee) kill it.
There is no one who cannot be killed in this world.
Even if Zhu Bo was used to it at this time, he even started a lot of killings in the entire Southeast Asia and America.
But hearing Lao Zhu’s words, he couldn’t help shaking.
There was silence for a moment.
Look at Lao Zhu.
Zhu Bo still shook his head quickly.
“Father, the people of Daming are the people of Daming after all, they are Chinese Miao descendants. It is not impossible to kill one or two people, even ten thousand people, ten thousand people, but large-scale slaughter is not beneficial to China, and The entanglement of the Ming Dynasty cannot be solved by killing some people.”
Zhu Bo opened his mouth with a sigh.
In his mind, he couldn’t help thinking of the future Ming Dynasty.
It must be said that the Ming Dynasty was the most exaggerated dynasty.
Civil servants, or in other words, the interest groups of landlords and squires are almost non-existent.
Regardless of whether it is the Qin and Han Dynasties, the Sui and Tang Dynasties, or even the Manchu Dynasty, the interest groups of the landlords and gentry have not reached the level of terror in the Ming Dynasty.
The civil service group, from the beginning of the Hongwu and Yongle dynasties, to the promise of the two dynasties, to the good news but not the bad news of the rule of benevolence and Xuanzhi, and then to the “hard-hearted” in the back, and in the end, what is the country’s death to me.
It can be said that it is constantly changing.
And the foundation of this transformation actually existed during the Hongwu period.
Especially in the South.
Even if Zhu Di moved the capital to Peiping, he could not change this situation.
Most of the power that Daming could mobilize at one time came from the north.
This also means that once Peiping is breached, almost all resistance in the south is lost.
It is also impossible to achieve the foundation of the Southern Song Dynasty, which is the same as the rule of the river.
Although it is impossible for Daming at this time to have the huge vortex that Nanming did at that time.
Lao Zhu is not the emperors of Nanming either.
Neither is he.
Hurry up, it will kill you.
But why bother yourself.
There is clearly more that can be done outside.
His words were firm, and there was no evasion in his gaze towards Lao Zhu.
While watching Zhu Bo’s reaction, listening to Zhu Bo’s words.
Lao Zhu was really sure that the son in front of him was not joking with him, he was really not interested in that position.
This made him sigh.
Stop speaking to discourage you.
The two fell into silence again at this moment.
The moonlight hung brightly and gradually scattered.
Time has gradually entered Hai Shi, and the liveliness on the street is relatively much less.
In this day and age when nightlife is relatively mundane.
It’s getting late.
Many shops have begun to close.
The starry sky sprinkled in the city, giving the city a dreamy feeling.
A rack of lights illuminated the surroundings.
This is because of Tao Yuanming’s Peach Blossom Spring.
Serene and comfortable.
With a refreshing feeling.
After an unknown amount of time, Lao Zhu’s voice came out again.
“Twelve, it seems that you already have a better idea for the future.””
“You should be building a country soon!
“When are you ready?”
The voice came out, and Lao Zhu’s eyes turned to Zhu Bo with a smile.
something.
Even if you don’t say it, you can feel one or two.
Especially after he stepped into the capital, Lao Zhu was able to feel more.
Now when the topic of Daming comes to an end, Lao Zhu immediately puts his thoughts on it.
For Daming, it may be a huge loss for Zhu Bo not to succeed him.
But for Nanyang, whether Zhu Bo succeeds or not has no effect.
Even for Nanyang.
It would be better for Zhu Bo not to take the throne.
After all, if he ascended the throne in Daming, Zhu Bo’s attention, or the main energy, must be on Daming for a short time, but now, all his attention and energy are now on Nanyang.
For the whole of Nanyang, it is naturally better.
It can also develop more rapidly.
