Chapter 122 Your Majesty, Please Take Care of Jiang Qingzhi Emperor Taizu expelled the Tartars and founded the Ming Dynasty. From the moment the Ming Dynasty was founded, the remnants of the Mongols became an indelible shadow in the emperor's heart. Emperor Taizu frequently sent large armies across the border, refusing to give the remnants of the Mongols any chance to breathe. At that time, the Ming Dynasty had a strong army and powerful generals such as Chang Yuchun and Lan Yu defeated the remnants of the Mongols without any resistance. But at this time, China was in ruins due to war, and reconstruction became the top priority. So, Daming began to practice internal skills hard. What followed was that Emperor Taizu started a massacre in order to inherit the throne. The birds were all gone and the good bows were put away. The remnants of the Mongols and Yuan Dynasty thus got a chance to catch their breath. When Emperor Jianwen ascended the throne, he placed important positions among Confucian officials, such as Huang Zicheng and others.
The Ming Dynasty's national policy then shifted from external to internal. What are foreign enemies? Your Majesty, the various vassal states are ambitious and are the number one enemy of the Ming Dynasty. The reduction of feudal lords began. It ended with Emperor Chengzu's counterattack and ascension to the throne. However, the remnants of the Mongols have recovered their strength during this rare period of time. Emperor Chengzu sensed the crisis and, despite opposition from his ministers, launched five northern expeditions. These five northern expeditions dealt a heavy blow to the remnants of the Mongols who had just recovered. But unfortunately, the emperors after Chengzu no longer had such martial arts skills. The defeat at Tumu Fort announced a change in the offensive and defensive situation between the Ming Dynasty and the grassland. In fact, in Jiang Qingzhi's view, the Ming Dynasty began to decline after the Battle of Tumu. By the Jiajing period, the civil officials were at peace and the military officials were idle. To be honest, when Jiang Qingzhi read the history books at this point, he could not help but sigh at the scene of a nation in ruins. But this old empire always produces heroes in times of crisis. The opening of the Longqing Gate extended the life of the Ming Dynasty for at least several decades. Zhang Juzheng's reforms extended his life for several decades... But after this, the sun of the Ming Dynasty had actually set. The Jiajing period was a critical period in the Ming Dynasty. The Japanese pirates were causing trouble in the southeast, while Altan Khan had a strong army in the north. During the Longqing reign, on the grasslands of Northeast China, generals like Li Chengliang were ambitiously sowing the seeds of the Ming Dynasty's demise. Eleven years later, Nurhaci will be born.
In a few years, that courier will also be born in the northwest... Everything seemed to be arranged perfectly by a big hand. No one can change it. But Jiang Qingzhi must try to change all this. He faintly felt the aura emanating from the huge cauldron from time to time, grand and solemn. It was as if if he dared to say, "I'm lying down, I'm done, it's up to you." The next moment the big cauldron would wipe him out. Since you can't change it, just accept it! This is chicken soup for the soul for later generations. This is what Jiang Qingzhi was thinking at the moment. He kicked Chen Pin away. He watched the warriors rush over and drown the man, then he saluted leisurely. "Your Majesty is frightened." Emperor Jiajing sat there in a daze, and his ministers began to speak out in panic. "Is your majesty alright?" "Damn Altan!" "I said Altan had bad intentions, and it turned out to be true." The hall was filled with afterthoughts. Chen Pin was held up with his nose and face swollen. He laughed wildly at Emperor Jiajing, "Look at your ministers! A bunch of trash! If it weren't for Jiang Qingzhi, I would have shocked the world today. Hahahaha!" "Shut his mouth!" Zhao Wenhua's face turned pale. "If you shut his mouth, will you be able to shut the mouths of everyone else?" Jiang Qingzhi asked, "Who said Chen Pin surrendered? Who pushed for Chen Pin to see the emperor? Who...arranged all this?" Zhao Wenhua lowered his head instantly. Jiang Yuan looked at everyone blankly. "Take it!" The Taoist priest shouted loudly. "His Majesty!" Jiang Yuan was dragged out by several warriors. "Your Majesty, I have no selfish motives, I have no selfish motives..." The shrill shout faded away.
Emperor Jiajing was furious. "The Royal Guards are incompetent!" "My lord is guilty!" Lu Bing knelt down and pleaded guilty. "The Ministry of Rites has ulterior motives." The Minister of Rites smiled bitterly and knelt down. "Who presided over this?" Emperor Jiajing asked angrily. Everyone was silent. Zhu Xizhong said sinisterly: "Your Majesty, I heard that it seems to be Zhao Wenhua." "Ok!" Emperor Jiajing slowly looked at Zhao Wenhua. Damn it Zhu Xizhong! Zhao Wenhua knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I was not in charge of the surrender. I just..." "Capture him and send him to prison!" "His Majesty!" Zhao Wenhua was dragged away. When passing by Jiang Qing, a foot suddenly stretched out and stepped on his instep. Stomp hard. "Ow!" Amid the howling, Jiang Qingzhi sighed, "Zhao Tongzhengshi is really regretting his decision." The Taoist happened to see this guy stepping on Zhao Wenhua, and his eyelids twitched. The censor then realized something was wrong, "Chang Wei Bo, fireworks are prohibited in the palace!" As he spoke, the censor strode over, stretched out his hand, and stared at him with his sharp eyes. Hand it over! Jiang Qingzhi somewhat reluctantly crushed the cigarette butt in his palm. Then he clapped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I have prepared the tools for a picnic, all outside the palace. It's hot, and if I don't go now, I'm afraid the food will go bad." No minister has ever dared to ask to leave when in an audience with Your Majesty. And the reason is really damn good: they want to go for a picnic. Your Majesty, please take care of it!
Emperor Jiajing waved his hand. "My lord, please retire." Jiang Qingzhi walked away, and the censor behind him looked down at the burn on his palm. "Ouch!" …… When Jiang Qingzhi left the palace, two princes and a little girl dressed as a boy were waiting for him with smiles on their faces. "Meet my uncle." "Where are you going?" Jiang Qingzhi asked. The two princes looked at their sister. The little girl said, "Wherever my cousin goes, I go." "Sell you." "I help my uncle count money." "good!" Jiang Qingzhi had a farm more than ten miles outside the city. The village is not big, but the environment is good. There are green mountains in the distance and green water nearby. A few naughty kids were taking turns jumping into the river, and bursts of shouting could be heard from time to time. In the field, the wheat ears gradually became heavy. The wind blew, and a few birds flew up, chirping. Han Shan from the village came out to greet them. Han Shan, who is in his forties, looks quite sturdy, with a dark complexion and large, strong hands. "I've met my uncle." Behind him was a girl of about fifteen or sixteen, who squatted down and said, "Greetings, Master." "This is my daughter, Xiu'er." Han Shan said, "I learned that the master was coming to the village, and I was worried that there would be no one to serve him. Xiu'er happened to have nothing to do, so I asked her to serve the master." The girl glanced at Jiang Qingzhi timidly. At the entrance of the village, dozens of villagers were waiting. "These families all followed Zhuangzi and were transferred to the name of the uncle." Han Shan introduced. The indentures of these people are now in Bo's mansion. "I've met my uncle." Everyone salutes.
Jiang Qingzhi nodded, "Go about your business!" '"yes." This was the first time that everyone had seen the master of the house. Seeing that he was a handsome young man, they couldn't help but have all kinds of speculations. "Let's go fishing." Jiang Qingzhi excitedly took his nephews and nieces to the river. This is a winding bay with turquoise water and willow trees drooping down on the shore. The sun shines through the willow branches onto the water, and a few flying insects press on the float... King Jing couldn't sit still, and after a while, seeing that there were no fish to take, he said he would go for a walk to the side, without even taking his guards with him. Jiang Qingzhi did not comment. Prince Yu, however, was calm and composed, silently accompanying his uncle. As for the little girl, she was dozing off with her back against the trunk of the willow tree behind her uncle. The accompanying female official came over and prepared to wake up Zhu Shou'an. Jiang Qingzhi frowned, "What do you want her to do?" The female official said, "My Lord, how can a princess of the highest rank sleep in the wild?" "Emperor Taizu slept outdoors all year round, and he didn't seem to have any problems!" Jiang Qingzhi was not used to these people's problems, "I'm here, you guys go away!" The female official blushed with anger and looked at Prince Yu, "Your Highness..." Prince Yu said calmly, "My cousin was able to lead his army to defeat Altan Khan's army. Could it be that there are more powerful enemies outside the capital? You are making a fuss out of nothing!" The corners of Jiang Qingzhi's mouth curled up slightly. From sitting quietly and fishing to verbally bullying the female official, Prince Yu showed his steadiness and magnanimity beneath his dullness. Prince Jing was enjoying the scenery over there, but he didn't know that his cousin had already given some points to Prince Yu in his heart. "Where did it come from?" Several men came from downstream, followed by more than a dozen slaves. King Jing was alone, but he was not afraid at all. "I came from home. Why? This is your home, why can't you come?" The leading man, who was less than 20 years old, sneered, "Just now a thief escaped from nearby. This man is unfamiliar. Come, capture him!" King Jing cursed, "You bastard, who do you say is the thief?" "Come here, catch him!" the man shouted. Several big men rushed out from behind. King Jing was a smart man, and a smart man would not suffer a loss in front of him. He turned around and ran away.
Behind him, several men were talking in low voices. "Are you sure it's his?" "If someone can walk around his farm, then who is he if not his?" The man turned around and said to his companions, "Before my father left for the court today, he said that today would be the day Jiang Qingzhi fell from power. Do we have any contribution to his fall?" "There's a fart!" "I understand, Liang Ying, you are planning to do something to Jiang Qingzhi's manor to make him suffer." The man's name was Liang Ying. His father was an official in the Honglu Temple and a member of the Yan Party. "That's right. When Jiang Qingzhi falls, we will get evidence that someone in Jiang Qingzhi's manor is communicating with the outside world. Just imagine how happy the prime minister will be." "What a good move! If this is the case, we will be included in the reward for our contributions!" "Someone's been caught over there!" After all, King Jing was a delicate person, and he would be caught if he got close. He forgot all about manners and shouted to the front: "Uncle, help!" The big men chasing behind him grinned grimly. "Uncle? Even my uncle can't save you!" Jiang Qingzhi had just caught a large fish, so when he heard the shout, he threw the fishing rod to Prince Yu and said, "Take it easy, don't pull it too hard." Jiang Qingzhi rushed out, tripped by something and nearly fell. He stumbled, using his hands and feet, and tried to straighten up and start running. Several accompanying guards discovered King Jing and rushed to rescue him. After a fight, several big men were knocked down. Liang Ying and others also happened to arrive. "How dare you, you bastard, take action?" "Where did this thief come from?" Liang Ying said coldly, "My father is Liang Quan." The guards looked strong and powerful. Although Liang Ying was a second-generation, he was not a fool. So he tried it first. This is also the rule of the second generation circle in Beijing. Everyone signs up first to see if their fathers and grandfathers have any relationship. Also, see whose fathers and grandfathers are more powerful. The weak bow their heads. That's the rule. Liang Ying waited for Jiang Qingzhi's answer. ……
