"Your Majesty, Your Majesty...?!"
There is reason to believe that when Yan Song called out His Majesty, there was definitely a question mark on his head.
Including Yan Shifan beside him, the same is true.
In their opinion, the Jiajing Immortal should have become an immortal and ascended to heaven to become the God of Fire. How could he appear here?
"This, this...how is this possible!"
The fat and ugly one-eyed dragon Yan Shifan subconsciously turned his head to look at the ruins of the Taigaoxuan Palace behind him, with disbelief in his one eye.
With his intelligence and wisdom, everything was arranged perfectly!
The father and son felt instantly chilled.
When Zhang Cong saw Jiajing appear, he took a long breath and hurried forward to greet him.
When he saw the Immortal Master and Taizu beside Jiajing, his expressions were startled, and he quickly knelt down respectfully.
"Zhang Cong, pay homage to the Immortal Master and pay homage to Emperor Taizu Gao!"
One word comes out.
All the officials behind him were instantly stunned.
'Emperor Taizu Gao? ! '
Xia Yan, Xu Jie, these atheists were all confused at this moment.
The Immortal Master and the others can still accept it. After all, they have already appeared once before and displayed miracles.
I originally thought this was outrageous enough, but I didn't expect that Emperor Taizu Gao would appear again.
But since even Zhang Shoufu knelt down, all the officials also gritted their teeth and knelt on the ground. Xu Jie disappeared among the officials and silently looked at the appearance of Emperor Taizu Gao.
'Different from what I imagined, he is quite heroic. '
All the officials came to worship.
"Meet the Immortal Master and meet Emperor Taizu Gao!"
Immortal Jiajing stood beside the Immortal Master and said nothing.
"Is this the minister we will serve more than a hundred years after the Ming Dynasty?"
On the other side of Ji Boying, Lao Zhu looked at the Jiajing courtiers who were kneeling on the ground, frowning tightly.
Looking around, all of these courtiers were white and clean, with fat heads and big ears, and all of them smelled like copper. This made Lao Zhu couldn't help but think of the corrupt officials he saw when he was a child.
He originally didn't want to interfere with the affairs of Jiajing time and space. After all, it was the matter of other time and space emperors. He could just leave it to Jiajing, and there was no need for him to interfere.
But when I saw these so-called important officials of the Jiajing court.
From these people, he saw countless people crying bitterly.
From these people, he saw countless common people bleeding.
From these people, he saw the greedy faces of them laughing while scooping up a lot of money.
"Your salary is your salary, and the people anoint the people."
"It is easy for the people to be abused, but it is difficult for God to bully them."
This calm and indifferent voice fell in the ears of the kneeling officials. Everyone was shocked in their hearts. They felt the murderous intention of the emperor from ancient times.
"Zhu Houcong."
Lao Zhu glanced at the Jiajing Immortal beside him, with knives in his eyes.
Jiajing's body trembled and he quickly bowed.
"This is the minister under your rule?"
As soon as he said this, sweat broke out on Jiajing's forehead. He was not afraid that his great-grandfather would chop him down if he was unhappy, but he was afraid that he would be beaten up by a group the next time he went to class.
Zhu Houcong still knew very well that during his Jiajing Dynasty, he was the eldest brother, but once he went to Zuixian Tower, he instantly became the younger brother.
In terms of seniority, he can't even compare to Zhu Houzhao.
"The smoky atmosphere comes from our ancestral system."
Lao Zhu finished his words.
Immortal Jiajing's eyes instantly flashed with murderous intent, and he shouted loudly.
"Lu Bing!"
Lu Bing, who had already sharpened his knife, stepped out.
"Take all the people present and send them to prison."
"I will give you three days. I want to know everything that happened today. No detail can be missed."
He glanced at his hair.
During the Jiajing Dynasty, the Jiajing immortals did not believe in eunuchs, but they believed in their own little boy.
Therefore, the Jinyiwei of the Jiajing Dynasty were the emperor's first swordsmen. When Admiral Dongchang saw Lu Bing, he had to kneel down and call him daddy.
"According to the order!"
Then, Jiajing Immortal glanced at Yan Song and Yan Shifan and his son. He had seen clearly just now. The two father and son shouted that they were going to the East Palace to welcome the crown prince to the throne.
Yan Song and his son felt numb all over their bodies and almost lost control.
Lu Bing stood up with a knife in his hand and swept past all the officials present.
With a wave of his hand, a large number of Jin Yiwei swarmed up. Regardless of whether they were pavilion elders or ministers, every one of them was arrested.
In the eyes of the Jiajing Immortal, none of these guys who were trying to make money for themselves were good people, and he had long wanted to give them all in.
'You dare to take money from me, but you won't even give half of it to me, and you will be put in jail! '
As for the fire in Taigaoxuan Palace today, Jiajing believed that Lu Bing would give him a satisfactory answer.
It can be expected that when Lu Bing presented his confession, the Jiajing Dynasty would instantly become crowded.
These former court officials will all dream of returning to Hongwu.
"Your Majesty, it's not a good idea to catch them all at once. How about keeping a few?"
Zhang Cong stood next to Jiajing and looked at the officials who had been taken away from the cabinet to the six ministries, and he spoke tentatively.
"After all, there are still people working in this court."
The words fell.
Lao Zhu glanced at Zhang Cong, as if he was looking at an idiot.
"Can't work in prison?"
Ding.
Zhang Cong was stunned and called him a good guy!
'When it comes to making the best use of a person, he must be Emperor Taizu! '
After all the officials were arrested by the Jin Yiwei, only four people were left before the ruins of the Taigaoxuan Palace were completely burned.
Ji Boying, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Houcong, and Zhang Cong who had attended school.
"Brother, why is our Daming like this?"
Lao Zhu looked at the ruined palace with flames still remaining, and asked what he was puzzled about.
Ji Boying patted Lao Zhu on the shoulder.
"There is no system in the world that will never be corrupted, and there is no dynasty that will last forever. I have set a five-hundred-year rule for you, the great emperors of tomorrow."
"Five hundred years, this is already an incredible number."
Hearing this, Lao Zhu's eyes dimmed a little.
Even though this was true, he still didn't want to accept it.
My Ming Dynasty already has immortals to help me, why can I only enjoy a kingdom of five hundred?
Starting from Qin Shihuang Yingzheng, every founding emperor hopes that his dynasty will last forever.
"Brother, is there no other way to extend the reign of Guo Zuo?"
Lao Zhu looked at Ji Boying and asked this question for the first time.
Take a deep breath.
"We think so."
"Borrow from heaven for another five hundred years."
Facing Lao Zhu's question, Ji Boying fell silent.
Five hundred plus five hundred, that's a thousand years.
Thousand-year-old Kingdom Zuo.
Even if the east and west weeks were combined, it would only last for more than 700 years. Moreover, the last few hundred years of these more than 700 years were basically a melee between various countries, and they were just the empty shell of a week.
"There is a way."
Ji Boying glanced at Lao Zhu.
After the words fell, Lao Zhu suddenly looked startled, and then his eyes lit up with joy.
Then he took a deep breath and bowed deeply towards Ji Boying.
"Brother, please teach me!"
Zhu Houcong, who was listening on the side, also looked surprised.
A thousand-year dynasty, isn’t this the Ming Dynasty? !
In the opinion of Jiajing Immortal, the best and simplest way to make a dynasty last for thousands of years is to make an emperor live for thousands of years, so as to ensure the immortality of the legal system.
'Master, are you going to teach Taizu the method of immortality? ! '
'I must catch this train! '
Jiajing made up his mind and was about to ask for a ticket for himself.
"Let me think about this matter and talk about it later."
Ji Boying patted Lao Zhu on the shoulder and gave Lao Zhu a don't worry look.
It's not that he doesn't want to talk to Lao Zhu now, but he wants to continue a dynasty for more than a thousand years, or even longer.
There is only one way to go.
Divide the imperial power and establish a constitutional monarch.
Because of the high degree of centralization, the direction of the country is too concentrated on the monarch. If it only encounters one generation of fatuous kings, it will be fine. If it encounters several generations of fatuous masters in a row, even the Ming Dynasty, which has achieved the feat of never setting the sun, will fall apart.
For Lao Zhu, who is accustomed to a high degree of centralization, this must be an unacceptable path.
"Master, take me with you when you tell me~"
Immortal Jiajing came up, licked his face and said, he must get this ticket.
"Clean up your mess first."
Ji Boying looked at Jiajing.
"After the last major class, Zhu Biao gave you, the second-term students, a rough overview of the previous content."
"Let me ask you, Haijin, do you have any ideas?"
Ding.
'Sea ban? What the hell? Was it taught in class? '
Jiajing was stunned.
'After Master finished his lecture last time, he only focused on pondering the magic of water making fire, and didn't listen to the rest of the lesson at all. '
Ji Boying frowned. He guessed from the confusion on Jiajing's face that he didn't pay attention to the class.
"Zhu Houcong."
"If you want to be enlightened, you must meet a condition."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiajing's mind was raised and he quickly saluted.
In front of Zhu Houcong, a devout Taoist, nothing is more important than the method of immortality.
"The Kingdom of Zuo has been extended for more than five hundred years. I can consider whether to teach you the method of immortality."
Immortal Jiajing's pupils shrank suddenly and he knelt down. He looked up at Ji Boying with a look of determination on his face.
"Master, don't worry. This disciple will definitely take classes seriously and extend the country to more than 500!"
Then, the expression on Jiajing's face changed, and he seemed to be thinking seriously.
"It's just Master, once the sea ban is lifted, all the officials along the coast will take my money."
"Two million taels of silver, I guess even one million won't be given to me!"
Speaking of this, Jiajing Immortal's face was full of anger.
"Do you think they didn't deduct your money just because you implemented the maritime ban?"
As soon as these words came out, Immortal Jiajing was stunned.
I thought to myself, how can these people deduct my money even if I'm locked up in the sea? !
"madness."
"You implement a sea ban, and the money flowing into the Ming Dynasty through the sea will not be divided to you even half, not even a cent."
Boom!
Immortal Jiajing's heart was struck by lightning, and his whole body trembled with anger.
I originally thought that giving me half would be too much, but I didn’t expect that they wouldn’t give me even a cent!
It’s really unbearable for my uncle, but it’s unbearable for the Jiajing Immortal!
Ji Boying glanced at Jiajing, who was burning with anger.
The official system of the Jiajing Dynasty was completely different from that of the early Ming Dynasty. Corruption had completely taken root and could not be solved by killing a group of people in the temple.
Above the temple, if you kill a batch, you can exchange for another batch.
But all over the country under the temple, there is no way to kill them all, and there is no way to kill them. The collusion between officials and businessmen, the collusion of powerful people, and a big net full of interests has enveloped the entire Ming Dynasty.
For example, the Jiajing Dynasty's maritime ban issue.
In essence, the Jiajing Dynasty never lifted the maritime ban, mainly because those coastal officials secretly did it.
As long as the sea ban is not lifted, these people can continue to engage in smuggling and pocket large amounts of overseas silver without having to pay taxes. It is simply wonderful.
At that time, Zhu Houzhao wanted to restart his voyages to the West, gather money and power for himself and the empire through maritime trade, and finally promote the Ming Dynasty to the world. However, the civil servant group headed by Liu Daxia was extremely opposed to Zhu Houzhao's plan to sail to the West.
Liu Daxia even burned the precious nautical charts accumulated by Zheng He during his seven voyages to the West. Of course, the report said they were burned.
But judging from the fact that his family has become one of the top overseas armed smuggling groups in the Ming Dynasty, this chart must have been hidden by him.
"After the next get out of class, you come with me to meet someone."
Ji Boying felt a slight headache.
As the timeline of the Ming Dynasty goes further back, many problems can no longer be solved by simply formulating a strategy from the decision-making level.
When the rot has penetrated deep into the foundation, it can only be repaired point by point step by step.
"A person? Who is it?"
Jiajing was stunned for a moment, thinking that He and others were worthy of the master taking him there in person.
"A man who became the Pirate King a few years later."
Ji Boying gave Jiajing a word.
Then, taking Lao Zhu with him, he disappeared on the spot.
Only the stunned Jiajing Immortal was left.
'The man who became the Pirate King. '
'? ? ? '
'What the hell. '
Immortal Jiajing looked at Zhang Cong subconsciously.
"Have you ever heard of One Piece?"
Zhang Cong was stunned and shook his head.
"Your Majesty, I have only heard of Poseidon."
The word "Sea King" comes from Guan Zhong, the governor of the State of Qi in the Spring and Autumn Period.
One who is subdued by the sea and strong by the sea is the king of the sea.
……………………
Hongwu time and space.
Zuixian Tower, the elegant room on the top of the pavilion.
"Brother, didn't you say before that mortals cannot live forever, even Emperor Ziwei is no exception? But why did you just tell that boy Zhu Houcong that you want to teach him the method of immortality?"
After hearing that Ji Boying promised Jiajing to teach him the method of immortality, Lao Zhu kept holding back this question and did not ask it.
Ji Boying smiled slightly.
"That's a lie to him."
"Your seventh-generation grandson, Xiu Changsheng, has become possessed by a demon. This is the only way to get him to focus on governing the country."
For Ji Boying, as long as the Jiajing time and space reaches 500 years, it is enough. After that, Jiajing can do whatever they like, and he has nothing to do with it anyway.
Lao Zhu pondered for a moment, nodded, and continued.
"Brother, aren't we going to Hongxi and Xuande next?"
Sitting across from each other by the window, Lao Zhu remembered that this time he should have traveled through the previous five time and space.
"No need, I can roughly guess the problems between Hong Xi and Xuande."
The Hongxi and Xuande dynasties both achieved similar results and faced similar problems, which can be attributed to insufficient execution.
After all, in these two dynasties, the emperor could no longer exert pressure on his ministers like Hongwu Jianwen did.
Many well-established systems will be more or less discounted as they are communicated at all levels and eventually implemented.
This was true even for Hongxi and Xuande, let alone the mid-Ming Dynasty after Xuande.
Ji Boying could imagine that when the results of these emperors in the mid-Ming Dynasty were announced, they would probably have to be described as 'horrible'.
"Lao Zhu, please call A Biao and Xiao Zhu Si."
"It's time for class in the afternoon."
Lao Zhu was stunned.
"Brother, don't you have a big class tomorrow? Why did you move it to today?"
"Time waits for us not."
Ji Boying made a deep voice.
Through this inspection, Ji Boying found that extending the country to Zuo was much more difficult than he imagined.
"Okay, let's send people to summon Biao'er and Laosi right now."
"Um."
Ji Boying nodded slightly.
He has always refused to take action, but now it seems that under certain circumstances, he still has to end up on his own.
For example, we bridged the gap between Jiajing and the Pirate King to complete the biggest 'collusion between officials and pirates' in Jiajing time and space.
After all, at the time of Jiajing, if you want to continue to use the previous method to seize the silver mines on the four islands of Japan, the difficulty is obviously a bit too great. Not only can you not ensure a quick victory, but one mistake will drag the entire Ming Dynasty into war. quagmire.
Given the financial situation of the Jiajing Dynasty, it could not afford to delay it.
Since war cannot be used, other methods can only be used.
The Jiajing Dynasty in history was already on the verge of financial collapse.
It was because Longqing opened the sea ban and allowed a large influx of overseas silver to be used as a blood transfusion for the Ming Dynasty that he breathed a sigh of relief.
But this breath does not cure the root cause, but hangs it with an oxygen bottle.
And the switch of the oxygen bottle is still in someone else's hands.
This is silver poisoning.
'One Piece. '
Ji Boying turned his head and looked out the window. He was quite interested in this Pirate King.
While waiting, he shifted his attention to Long Qing.
……………………
Longqing time and space, Longqing five years.
After Gao Gong's unremitting efforts, all other cabinet members, such as Li Chunfang and Yin Shizhan, have gone home to retire, leaving only his old friend Zhang Juzheng.
It was already dark, and Mr. Zhang, who was about to take a break from work, had just walked out of his classroom.
"Uncle, why is God so unfair?"
Gao Gong walked over leisurely, with a sad look on his face.
"Oh, why did Su Qing say this?"
Zhang Juzheng stopped and stood up, thinking that you are the only one in the cabinet. The emperor is obsessed with romantic affairs and does not care about affairs. In this world, it is you who have the final say with the last name high, and you still talk about unfairness.
"Uncle, you have so many sons, but I don't have any. Do you think this is fair?"
Lao Zhang was stunned.
Gao Gong is over sixty this year and has no children. It is very likely that he will have no children or grandchildren in his life.
As for Gao Wuguan, the son of Gao Gong, recorded in the Ming Dynasty Records, it is most likely that Wanli felt that Mr. Gao was too pitiful and decreed that he should be adopted as a son within the Gao family. After all, as long as he adopted Lao Gao as his son, Wanli would immediately get Wanli. The reward officials are all rushing up.
"hehe."
Lao Zhang wiped his flowing beard with a wry smile.
"It's hard to raise too many sons."
After finishing his words, Gao Gong smiled.
This was what he was waiting for.
I saw Gao Gong suddenly staring into Zhang Juzheng's eyes.
"Uncle has the thirty thousand taels of snowflake silver given by Xu Jie. How many sons can he support?"
Ding.
Lao Zhang: Gao! Are you fucking fucking me? !
