Great Ming: I, Zhu Di, Declare My Intentions to Seize the Throne From the Start!

Chapter 544 Zhu Di: My Hands Are Actually Very Black!

Complaint!

The carriage where Zhu Di was located, as well as the carriage with a connecting door, fell silent for an instant.

Xu Miaoyun, Zhu Jingjing, Dongxu, Qihua...

Everyone couldn't help but frown.

Through the carriage, he looked at Zhu Di worriedly.

At this moment, Zhu Di also frowned.

He didn't expect that this brave guy would give him such a difficult problem.

As expected, it must be related to the refugees in Jiangsu and Zhejiang who were abandoned by the gentry and landlords and struggled to survive.

To be honest, Yu Qian just asked Yanhua to come forward to raise food to support this group of refugees, and not allow Yanhua to recruit these refugees to move to Yanhua.

It's all better, just file a complaint!

The eldest brother has great power and is about to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor.

He took Yu Qian to do this.

If the eldest brother is broad-minded enough, he will take this as the concern that he, the prince of the Zhu family, has for the stability of the old Zhu family dynasty.

If it were a little narrower.

Everyone will regard this matter as a blow to their accession to the throne.

Does eldest brother know about the affairs in Jiangsu and Zhejiang?

Definitely know!

Ma Quan told him before that the local governments in Jiangsu and Zhejiang could only use their treasury to provide work-for-relief for a few months every year to allow these refugees to work.

Get paid.

During the rest of the time, the refugees worked odd jobs on their own, or relied on the mountains and rivers to eat, dig wild vegetables, etc. to satisfy their hunger.

On the surface, this approach was the behavior of Ma Quan, the chief envoy, in governing Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it is a way for the elder brother to stabilize the refugees after knowing the situation.

Combine these methods.

The refugees will not starve to death.

No matter how numb and hopeless one is about future life.

Never mind whether you can keep up with nutrition.

At least, this series of policy measures ensures that these refugees will not take desperate risks.

Maintained a stable situation.

Not surprisingly, the eldest brother is using this in exchange for time and will slowly and gradually solve these problems.

As for the method.

He also saw it from some of Ming's policy measures in recent years.

Over the past few years.

The eldest brother has been promoting the abolition of the indenture system in factories on a small scale in places where the reformists are in power.

Breaking the bonds of physical deeds that bound workers, workers were reduced to the status of factory owners like cows, horses, pigs, and dogs.

Factory owners cannot carry out cruel and bottom-line exploitation of workers similar to what they are doing now.

As working hours are limited, the workload will inevitably be reduced.

Then, the factory wants to produce more high-quality and low-priced goods in the competition.

In addition to technological upgrading, it is also the expansion of production capacity.

Technology upgrading, Ming Dynasty does not have such conditions for the time being.

Only low-tech, labor-intensive, large-scale factories can be developed.

In this way, these refugees can be digested.

However, it is estimated that according to the current progress of the court and the constraints of the conservatives, it will take at least ten years.

Tie Xuan looked at the five scholars kneeling on the ground and Zhu Di, who was frowning and thinking, with a complicated expression.

At this moment, he was in a very complicated mood.

That is to say, he hopes that King Yan will intervene. After all, he knows very well that if you want to solve this problem with the power of the court and the prince alone, the timeline will inevitably be very long.

'We can only suffer the people once, and let the people suffer again...'

This kind of talk is nothing new in court.

It's almost audible calloused.

If there is really no other way, just for the sake of the overall situation and suffering for the people, that is justified.

Now, as long as this prince is willing to intervene, perhaps this problem can be solved quickly.

Any conscientious official, at this moment, would like this person to intervene.

Can……

But as a courtier loyal to the prince.

He was also very aware of the negative impact this intervention would have on the prince.

Moreover, this person's intervention is undoubtedly very likely to intensify the conflict between the prince and this person.

this moment.

Some are looking forward to it, some are nervous, some are worried...

All eyes were focused on Zhu Di.

"You have posed a problem for me." Zhu Di broke the silence with a wry smile and looked at Yu Qian who touched his forehead to the ground. "My father is seriously ill. You asked me to take you to sue the emperor now. Where do you put human relations?" land?"

"So good."

"I don't want to sue you for the time being. After I enter Beijing, I will raise a batch of food from Yanhua under other names to ensure that at least within three or four years, these refugees will have a mouthful of decent food to satisfy their hunger. During these three or four years, Inside, the imperial court can also think of ways to resolve this crisis..."

Yu Qian raised his head, his eyes were fearless, and he looked straight at Zhu Di. There seemed to be some disappointment in his eyes, and he said bluntly: "Your Majesty, this is sophistry. First of all, the student is waiting to file a petition at this time, and with Your Majesty and Your Majesty, Human relations are not incompatible.”

"Your Majesty loves the people, and everyone in the world knows that. Regarding this matter, the prince assisted the students and others and successfully filed a petition to the imperial court, allowing the court to come up with a complete solution to the matter. Your Majesty can feel at ease even...even...!"

Snapped!

"How dare you!" Ma Quan suddenly stood up and shouted angrily: "You are a crazy person, how dare you curse your Majesty!"

This kid, although he didn't say it in the end.

But the meaning behind the words is that even His Majesty can smile.

Zhu Di waved his hand to stop Ma Quan.

In fact, he himself knows it very well.

As this timid boy said.

His words contained elements of sophistry.

Based on his understanding of his father, if he could force everyone in the court to come up with a solution under the pressure of this atmosphere before leaving.

As Yu Qian said, my father was also happy in his heart.

Doesn’t your father know about the refugee issue?

clear!

Father doesn't interfere, that's the eldest brother's current strategy of delaying and exchanging time for space.

Although my father may not agree in his heart.

But barely acceptable.

In my elder brother's place, where the reformists were in power, a small-scale experiment was carried out to abolish the indenture system.

My father's non-interference was to give my eldest brother enough space to act.

It is also to save face for the future prince, my eldest brother.

It's impossible. My father feels that his body can't hold on anymore, and when he is about to face the transfer of imperial power, he still scolds his eldest brother and makes him lose his majesty, right?

This is not conducive to the transition of imperial power.

Just listen to Yu Qian continue to say: "The sage said that when encountering problems, you should turn to the inside more often and less to the outside. Although the sage's words are big and general, these wise words have guiding significance."

"In these years, the imperial court only thought about developing technology from Prince Yanhua in industry, and even resorted to stealing and misappropriation. However, it never thought about turning to others for help, imitating Yanhua, and doing research on their own. Therefore, The imperial court has made the industry in a mess over the years. If Yanhua had not assisted in the construction of the Grand Cross Railway and helped sort out the industrial areas controlled by the imperial court, I am afraid that the industrial order would have been even worse. "

"If you don't work hard for yourself, no matter how much you get from outside, it will never be yours, and it will never be possible to truly make full use of these resources!"

Zhu Di nodded slightly, a smile appearing on his lips.

I was also very emotional.

An outstanding person is an outstanding person after all.

Real talents taught by the great principles of Confucianism can still use these principles with ease even in the period of industrialization.

In the final analysis, the great principles of Confucianism teach people how to behave in the world and teach people the right way.

But the avenue is too vague.

Only a few people can truly understand it and use it flexibly.

And the technique is faced by the vast majority of the general public.

Historically, throughout the late Qing Dynasty, those old-school figures, including Li Zengzhang, were actually mediocre people.

Compared to the timid boy in front of him, he was far behind.

It is better to seek help from within than from outside!

In one sentence, the essence of the development of a person and a country can be expressed.

"It's the same now. The students don't think that if the prince helps the court and raises refugees for three or four years, the court can solve this problem. On the contrary, the students think that the support of the prince Yanhua will only cultivate laziness on the court's side, and one day in the future , when the prince stops supporting him, the students can be sure that not only the court will think that the prince is dishonest and resent him, but also the refugees who are supported by the prince will complain about him. "

"This move will not benefit the court in any way."

"For the prince, it will do a lot of harm and no good at all!"

"The prince spent countless money and food, but in the end, he didn't even have anyone to say a good word to him!"

"This is rice envy versus rice enmity!"

"Therefore, the students ask the prince to take the students to Yanjing to file a petition!"

boom!

After saying this, Yu Qian kowtowed violently.

The sound produced by the collision is not loud.

But it was like a bell ringing in everyone's heart.

Bang bang bang...

Zhu Di's applause sounded.

"Okay! I will take you to file a complaint!"

Ma Quan's face suddenly turned pale, but he did not dare to object.

Zhu Di changed the topic, "However, I also have a request. After this is done, you can follow me to Yanhua. Yanhua is more suitable for a brave and iron-headed person like you."

"king……"

As soon as Tie Xuan opened his mouth, he was stopped by Zhu Di's sharp eyes.

Zhu Di's gaze shifted and fell on Yu Qian again.

He really couldn't bear to let this kid die in the endless conspiracy and exclusion of the Ming Dynasty.

As for the current official ecology of the imperial court.

Yu Qian stayed in the Central Plains.

I'm afraid it will fall earlier than in history.

In history, although he hated this boy with gnashing of teeth.

But he has to compete with Tang Taizong.

Taizong could accommodate Wei Zheng.

How could he not tolerate this kid?

Later, Gao Chi and his son became more benevolent monarchs.

At that time, Sanyang was in charge of the government.

There are three Yangs protecting this young junior.

In general, no one in the court dared to blatantly mess with this tough-headed kid.

Don't you see, wait until these people are gone.

Can this iron-headed boy only leave behind one eternal masterpiece and die generously?

But now, there are not so many people protecting him in the court.

On the contrary, today's conservatives hate young people like him the most.

Together with the student movement.

If he is not careful, Yu Qian may become the first person to shed his blood.

The student movement requires bloodshed.

But it would be a pity if Yu Qian's passion was only sprinkled on the student movement and turned into spring flowers, azaleas all over the mountains and plains.

Go to Yanhua.

After a few years of training in the officialdom, I gained a little more mellowness.

After the hero succeeds to the throne, let him come back.

Yu Qian raised his head, looked at Zhu Di, and shook his head firmly, "Young Master Yanhua is a young student. The young student's blood does not matter, but the Central Plains needs the student's blood. Heroes like the prince, since they promised the students, then ask the students The conditions are detrimental to the prince’s wisdom.”

snort!

Zhu Di was so angry that he laughed and snorted: "Remember, I have never admitted that I am a hero. I also tell you that this world needs heroes. The spirit of heroes guides everyone. In the wandering, they constantly correct their mistakes and take the right path. But heroes can't do things. Heroes can only pass on their spirit to us, let us take heroes as our role models, keep our nature and heart, and if we want to get things done, don't be a hero. You should understand that some of the things I did were very dirty! I just did one thing right compared to most people and kept my nature and heart!"

"Get out! The conditions are waived. I agree to your request to file a complaint! Get off the train immediately and persuade others to leave the railway. The five of you will follow me to Beijing!"

"In the students' hearts, the prince is a hero. If there is a chance in the future, the students also hope to listen to the prince's teachings!" Yu Qian said happily. After solemnly kowtowed to thank him, he stood up and got off the train with the other four classmates to convey Zhu Di's meaning.

...

Tick-tick-tick...

After a while.

The train restarted.

"I am Yu Qian."

"Yang Dongxu."

"Chunxiao."

"Liu Minfeng."

"Zhu Qihua!"

"Zhu Gaoxu!"

...

Inside the office car.

The door was closed.

Xu Miaoyun personally made tea for Zhu Di.

Listening to the voices of the children introducing each other outside, she couldn't help but smile, "Are you moved by the love of talent?"

This young scholar is really good.

If Silang hadn't been moved by the love of talent.

It is impossible to protect him.

It's just...the young man is simple in nature, and he has not yet clearly realized how many people he will offend after the complaint to the emperor, and what risks he will face in the future if he stays in the Central Plains.

Xu Miaoyun raised his head while speaking.

I saw Zhu Di looking out the window in a daze.

Carrying a cup of tea, he came to Zhu Di and looked out the window.

Outside the window, as the train passed by.

The messy low triangular shacks passed by.

In the shack forest, there were numb and dull faces.

It hurts my eyes.

In Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

There is no welcoming party like in Fujian.

Since she followed Silang to the sea.

She hasn't seen such a miserable scene for nearly 20 years.

After a long time, Zhu Di turned around and sighed, "I pushed them to this situation."

Yes.

He did it on purpose.

He expected this day by sending large-scale agricultural machinery to the Central Plains.

Just like the student movement that has been planned for a long time but has not yet happened.

These refugees.

They are also chess pieces for him to force the Central Plains and force his eldest brother to make changes!

The Great Cross Railway Project requires a lot of labor.

And, forcing his eldest brother to give Yanhua 3 million people.

All for this day, to ease this contradiction slightly.

While forcing his eldest brother to change.

Just minimize the sacrifice of innocent people as much as possible.

In fact, when he ignored these pure tenants who depended on the gentry in the process of rural villages, he knew that with the progress of industrialization.

This scene will appear.

And this was also a link that he deliberately ignored at the time.

At that time, he just hadn't figured out how to use it.

That's why he told Qian that he was never a hero.

His hands were really black!

...

The rest of the journey.

Nothing happened again.

Two days later.

The train entered Zhili.

Jinling suddenly became hot...

The news of the tunnel explosion and the scholars blocking the road had already been passed back to the Jinling court.

Undercurrents surged in the heat.
