"Okay! I agree! Eunuch Pang, as long as my father officially becomes the Long Live Lord, you will be nine thousand nine hundred years old, and you will be the second best to Wei Zhongxian!"
Zhu Heji immediately expressed his position, and then gave Da Boling a wink.
Da Bo Ling also immediately echoed: "The slave family listens to the great grandson, the great grandson agrees, and the slave family also agrees!"
Hearing these two people express their opinions, Zhu Cijiong, the king of heaven, felt something was wrong. How come two of the five people in the meeting were wearing the same pair of pants? No, they should be sleeping in the same bed? So he looked at military advisor Zhuge Sanhe.
"Pindao also thinks it's feasible!" Zhuge Sanhe said with a smile, "As long as Eunuch Pang can hand over the silver coin factory to the court, then how can he not be nine thousand nine hundred years old?"
Four of the five members have reached an agreement!
"Win!" Heavenly King Zhu Ye had no choice but to agree, "That's it!"
Zhu Heji breathed out, with a look of success, and then said: "Abba, our family's business has only been able to get to where it is today thanks to the help of Eunuch Pang, Military Advisor Zhuge and Sister Ling for so many years. If we want to continue to grow in the future, we cannot do without the help of the three of them."
What he said is correct. The Dananshan bandit nest of Heavenly King Zhu and Cannon Zhu and his son is actually a joint-stock bandit nest!
The force of the Shanzhai has always been a joint venture between Tian Wang Zhu, Cannon Zhu and Da Bo Ling, and it is Zhuge Military Advisor who advises the Shanzhai. Coupled with Eunuch Pang who supports the Shanzhai with money, the situation of Danan Mountain's bandit nest is maintained.
Under these five people, there are two big thugs, Zhao Zhongyi, the confidant of Tian Wang Zhu, and Su Yong, the confidant of Da Bo Ling. In addition, there is Zhu Heji's Qi Ye, Mr. Yu...count these three. , that is the "eight kings discussing politics". But the real core is still five people: Tian Wang Zhu, Cannon Zhu, Da Bo Ling, Zhuge Military Advisor and Eunuch Pang.
Zhu Hejie considered his words and then continued: "Abba, the five of us will make an oath in the Daxian Pavilion today. We will share the hardships and share the blessings in the future...whatever important military and national affairs, We also need to discuss it together! What do you think?"
Heavenly King Zhu touched his five-locked beard, looked at his son, then at his adopted sister and daughter-in-law, and finally at Zhuge Military Advisor - he was trapped in the capital of Guiyu some time ago, and the military advisor is his backbone ah!
Zhuge Military Advisor pretended to count his fingers and said: "If the five sons work together, the Ming Dynasty can be restored... The third prince and grandson are right!"
At this time, Da Bo Ling gave Eunuch Pang a wink, and Eunuch Pang immediately said: "Nan also thinks this is the reason... Otherwise, in the future, we will also give the military advisor and sister Ling an iron hat." Be the king!"
"No, no, how can you become a king when you are a slave girl?" Da Bo Ling quickly shook her head.
Zhu Heji said with a smile: "Sister Ling, if you can't become the king, just make someone a lady who is more powerful than the prince... No, this will all happen in the future. My father is just appointing the king to supervise the country. He himself You are just a king, how can you make a king? You can make a few princes at most. When my father officially ascends the throne in the future, I will give the title of king to Eunuch Pang and the military advisor, and I will give Sister Ling a title of a great lady with a higher status than a prince. Father, you Is this okay?"
"Okay, let's do it this way." King Zhu thought about it and felt it was appropriate, so he nodded. He looked at his son who was suspected of "usurping power" and said, "Sai Zai, do you have anything else to mention?"
"Of course!" Zhu Heji suddenly put on a sacred and solemn expression and looked at King Zhu, Eunuch Pang, Military Advisor Zhuge and Da Bo Ling, "Who are we fighting for now and why are we fighting?"
King of Heaven Zhu Zhengse said: "Of course we are fighting to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, and we are fighting for the great tomorrow!"
"Yes, your Majesty is right!" Zhuge Military Advisor also said, "Of course we are fighting to support the Mingshi!"
Eunuch Pang also said: "Nan is also a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty, so he will naturally be loyal to the Ming Dynasty!"
Da Bo Ling smiled and said: "Master, I don't know what the world is like. I am just for you."
Zhu Heji, however, shook his head and said: "These words can only be said in Daxian Pavilion... Can you say it to the people in the world? Can you say it to Military Master Chen and Liu Guanzhen? Can you say it to Prince Yanping? Can you tell me? Can we make the anti-Qing patriots who follow us feel a sacred feeling of serving the country, the people, and the world from the bottom of their hearts?"
What's the meaning?
I don’t understand it at all!
Tian Wang Zhu, Eunuch Pang, and Da Bo Ling all looked confused, while Military Advisor Zhuge was thoughtful.
Zhu Heji's face showed a sacred and solemn expression - he had not been competing with Da Bo Ling day and night these days, but also spent a lot of time thinking about the country and revolution!
Of course he knew that although he might rely on the golden finger of "Sweet Gunpowder" and the San Francisco Rebellion to overthrow the rule of the Qing Dynasty, he might not be able to replace it or even build a better country... and overthrow it. The rule of the Qing Dynasty was only "possible".
After all, Emperor Kangxi was still very powerful, and the current Eight Banners disciples had not fallen to the point of carrying caged birds and smoking D-cigarettes.
In addition, Zhu Heji also discovered a very troublesome problem for him these days, that is, the social contradictions in the early Qing Dynasty were not sharp...not curled!
Emperor Kangxi's household records only had a population of more than 10 million, but the real number was more than 40 million. Historically, it was the sixth year of Qianlong's reign that the Qing Dynasty's population exceeded 100 million. Pushing forward to the tenth year of Kangxi's reign, the estimate of 40 million is not low. This number was only about one-tenth of the total population of the country during the Taiping Rebellion!
The actual number of cultivated land is not much less than that of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. After all, the land is there! There are at least 1.8 billion acres, and the per capita cultivated land is 20 acres!
Moreover, there are still large areas of abandoned or undeveloped land in the Qing Dynasty. For example, the entire Northeast is basically deserted, and the southern and northern parts of the desert outside the Great Wall are also deserted. Sichuan, the land of abundance, is like a wild animal, and the "outside the border" areas in the coastal provinces have very few people and are full of wastelands.
As for other places that are not too deserted, the population is not too large. There are only a few places, such as the mountainous areas in eastern Guangdong and northern Guangdong, where the population loss during the transition from Ming to Qing Dynasty was relatively small, so they are still somewhat "volatile". But it is impossible to sweep the whole world with this "volume".
Therefore, Zhu Heji knew that he drew strength from social contradictions, and the banner of opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty... to be honest, its appeal was limited.
After all, the situation in the late Ming Dynasty was also quite bad. The court was corrupt and incompetent, and the Little Ice Age happened. Moreover, the population in the late Ming Dynasty also made it difficult to afford agricultural production during the Little Ice Age. Therefore, the living standards of ordinary people are generally not as good as those during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty - in an agricultural society, relying on the sky and the earth, good weather and plenty of land per person, they can always have enough to eat.
Later generations on the Internet often ridiculed that the prosperous age of Kangxi was a prosperous age of sweet potatoes. As far as Zhu Heji knows now, it did not exist... Maybe the prosperous age of Qianlong was a prosperous age of sweet potatoes, but with the small population in the Kangxi years, there was no need to eat sweet potatoes. ?
In addition, those unscrupulous scholar-officials had a way of becoming slaves to the Qing Dynasty through the imperial examination, so they might not miss the Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, Zhu Heji felt that he needed a group of anti-Qing patriots who not only had golden-finger weapons, but were also more ideologically determined.
And to arm the minds of anti-Qing patriots... it is not enough to rely on the slogan of anti-Qing and restoration of Ming Dynasty!
It is okay to fight against the Qing Dynasty, but why restore the Ming Dynasty?
Zhu Heji was silent for a long time, and after letting several people in the Daxian Pavilion think carefully, he spoke again: "I think we can't use the old Zhu family and the Aixinjueluo family to compete for the world. There are many ways to call on the world, even if my father and I are orthodox to the Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Bujie, the King of Heaven, said: "If we don't use the slogan of rebelling against the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty, what else can we use as a rallying cry?"
"Use the restoration of the Chinese world as a rallying cry, use the world as a commonwealth as a rallying cry..." Zhu Heji said, "When we rise up against the Qing Dynasty, we are not fighting for the world of one family and one surname. But to restore the Chinese orthodoxy, for Restore the clothes and honors of the Han family, and fight to restore the justice of the world that the ancient Confucian scholars have been striving for!
Our purpose is to establish a world for the common good after overthrowing the Manchu Qing Dynasty and reestablishing the Chinese Taoist tradition, selecting talents and talents, adhering to trust and building harmony, people not only kissing their own relatives, not only their children, so that the old will have a happy life, the strong will be useful, and the young will be useful. If you are talented, the widowed, widowed, lonely, disabled, and sick will all be supported and fight in the ecumenical way! "
