Wanli Xinming

In this book, he directly became the emperor, made drastic reforms internally, from the palace to the local government, and almost destroyed the Qing Dynasty in its infancy. The logic is still online, the author's historical homework is also in place (at least for me), and the excitement is also high. Looking at other historical books, this pattern is incomparable, and the logic with this pattern is rarely comparable to this book. Those whose logic is good may be making up history themselves. The author has raised my aesthetics of historical novels to a certain height. But according to this progress, what will be the final outcome, the unification of Asia, Africa and Europe? Expedition to America? Isn't it about conquering the galaxy? If this kind of reform is carried out, there will be a chain reaction in which there will soon be no cases available. If you write down trivial cases, a pattern will soon start to cycle. Anyway, I'm really looking forward to the author's next story!

I voted for the monthly vote and complained about it. This book is beautiful because the author did write it with a rigorous attitude, and the game with the ministers was very exciting. There are some shortcomings to complain about. The author is too ambitious and unwilling to allow the protagonist to just control the direction of the carriage of history. He almost wants to transform the carriage into a Lamborghini. He wants to overthrow the orthodoxy of Confucianism, fill the core with science, and enter modernization in advance. This project is too huge, so the plot is very urgent. Within a few chapters, the imperial shop that can buy and sell production technology, newspapers and other super weapons are formed. New technologies appear one after another, and the emperor's control becomes stronger and stronger. However, the author's writing is not convincing and has no sense of substitution. It is too urgent and only has 480,000 words. The recent dozens of chapters have been a bit scattered, and the plot is a bit over-expanded. It is a rare resignation in history, and the protagonist rushes to see the queen halfway. These two things can obviously be written separately in two days. The naoomi who is about to die and the eunuch who kills the king are all out of the control of the protagonist. The readers are not only frustrated, but also it is really unreasonable. We like the author's rigorous and serious attitude very much. I hope the author can re-imagine the plot. Thank you very much.

I have to say something admirable. There are not many people writing history nowadays, and half of them write fiction. It is really difficult to find such a book. When I turned to this book, I was moved just by reading the introduction. Please bear with me, the author.

Is this book about eunuchs? Let me tell you, what kind of operations officer should I have? One chapter is updated in ten and a half months, the operation is a piece of shit.

……

Regional maps of various countries over the past 10,000 years.

……

The writing is very good, but the dialogue is a bit tiring. After reading a sentence, you need to think about what it means. I am not used to it.

The writing is quite good, well-founded, and it doesn't start with a shudder and power in all directions. This gives it a sense of reality. It's very good. Come on! ! ! !

……

Don't be a eunuch! ! ! I really like this book. The author writes very carefully and has consulted a lot of information. This kind of writing attitude is great.

There are not many historical books that I am currently following, only Shao Song, Ji Han and this one. But the charm of the article has not been seen for a long time. I still need to think about the wording of the text, come on!

I came across this book again by chance in the bookshelf, although now it seems that the completion of this book is far away. But what is very gratifying is that this book gives Zhang Juzheng the best ending. Little Wanli really became the best student and the best emperor in Zhang Juzheng's mind, and truly took up the banner of reform. Zhang Juzheng can put down all his burdens, show his talents and exert his political ambitions to the best of his ability. He no longer has to worry about being constrained by opposing officials, so much so that he puts a sword to his neck and kneels, which is almost a rogue plea. Just as he wished, Zhang Ju fought hard in the post of reform until the last moment of his life. In this book, I can make an honorable exit as Prime Minister. I read this passage in the fifteenth year of Wanli. In a letter to a friend, Wen Zhonggong quoted a Buddhist verse, "It is like entering the fire gathering, and you will find the cool door." Zhang Juzheng in this book no longer needs to let the fire burn his body, and finally feels cool. This makes people think about what a wonderful thing it would be if Duke Wen Zhong in history could do the same. It is a pity that history has never been what-if. History, like life, is always full of so many regrets. It makes people feel sad and cry. But for me, this book can give an almost perfect ending to Duke Wen Zhong and satisfy my regrets about the ending of Duke Wen Zhong in history. It is worthwhile to read this book for so long.

If you look at the catalog, it will be updated every few days. How dare you follow it?

I have read over a hundred chapters of the book, and I would like to give some suggestions to the author. I hope to see the reform of the Ming Dynasty royal family. The royal family hierarchy is not bad, but the names of the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth are not enough. This should be changed!

Historically speaking, Shen Shixing was a bit soft but very upright.

The protagonist is a rare and bright person, a reliable boss worthy of trust and trust. The rhythm of the plot is comfortable, skipping all the noisy harems of officials and civil servants in similar stories. The writing is precise and appropriate, and the classical Chinese passages do not show off talent but smoothly promote the plot. The characters are vivid and vivid, and the officialdom wisdom of the spicy old radish and the life wisdom of the common people are all distinctive.

Even if Wanli strongly supports Zhang Juzheng's reforms, the resistance is very huge. Just talking about population, this thing has not been implemented for a long time and it is impossible to make a statistical estimate at all. However, it took several years in the book to accurately obtain the number of "160 million", which is simply incredible. Basic statistics come from the grassroots. In the mid-to-late Ming Dynasty when land annexation was extremely serious, grassroots corruption was serious. Aristocratic families, country squires and wealthy families have concealed countless people and fields. Can this be completed in a few years? The grassroots are inseparable from the local tycoons. In the Ming Dynasty, wages were extremely low, and the payments were given at various discounts. In fact, the situation was no longer "eating the emperor's salary". What the grassroots "eat" was the "salary" obtained by colluding with the local tyrants to oppress the people. This is a fundamental problem. If it is not solved, the grassroots will not work hard, and local tyrants will cause trouble. The "160 million" number will not be obtained. "The imperial power does not go to the countryside" is even more critical. Administrative units at the village and township levels generally have a very high degree of "autonomy". How many high-quality and loyal officials must the emperor send to count the land and population in the villages and towns step by step? In such a situation where the chain of interests at the grassroots level is extremely complicated, if we want to obtain accurate figures, we can only succeed by relying on a group of "loyal" workers and pragmatists to slowly advance, slowly counting villages and villages one by one, using force to intimidate, policy inducement, and those who can do it. I read more than 200 chapters, and the book already showed a small phenomenon of "all nations coming to Korea". Later, I felt that the Ming Dynasty had already started its internationalization journey in the tenth year of Wanli... I was really surprised. The internal problems of the late Ming Dynasty are extremely complex and serious. However, economic "internationalization" and internal reforms can be carried out at the same time. But for external interference, I think if the late Ming Dynasty wants to solve its own problems, there will be no spare power at all. Three years to destroy the Jurchens and ten years to found the country. I dare not think about whether Wanli will destroy Rome in the 20th year... Personally, I think this book is still very sophisticated, and the overall standard is good, but it is too fast, and it is too optimistic and direct about the reform.

Many people say that sitting on such a reform is seeking death. In fact, it is not the case. In the beginning, they used the information gap and their own family ties to kill Feng Bao. Later, they joined forces with Zhang Juzheng to control Qi Jiguang and ensured some military power. With Qi Jiguang in his hands, and when he entered the capital through Qi Jiguang, he had the political power that could no longer compete with Zhang Juzheng to move the capital. As we know, after the Mingbao Sect sent the heads of 100,000 soldiers, the nobles of the Ming Dynasty no longer had any strong bones, and the civil servants It is even more impossible to resist Zhang Juzheng's power. After all, he is the biggest leader of the civil service. Later, he played a thousand-mile remote control at the border, which directly shocked Li Chengliang, who was just starting out. And the reform of the protagonist is not simply to harm the interests of others. Like Wenwen, although it is a job that requires overtime, it also proves that the path to advancement is open, and as long as the path to advancement is smooth, the civil service will focus on promotion. For other powerful lords of the past generations, large families that have been passed down for hundreds of years, rely on the auction of salt fields and the opening of northeastern sub-fields. Those people won't have much objection. This is a matter of pulling one group at a time. This is what the chairman taught us And King Pan of the Ming Dynasty didn't have to worry about it. The protagonist allowed them to make money openly and benefit them. It was his kindness. Otherwise, according to historical traditions, they could only eat and wait to die So it doesn't move all at once, and everyone waits. It comes in batches. During the Wanli period, it got help from Zhang Juzheng, and as long as it is the spiritual blessing of the two lives of the time traveler, it can be remembered that there are many things in the previous life. Many of the novels we read have written production methods, so it is not surprising that things like Rishenglong

There are different opinions on the cause of death of Emperor Zhengde and Emperor Carpenter. I personally support the conspiracy theory. The first is the actions of Emperor Zhengde and Emperor Carpenter. The second is the timing of death, especially Emperor Carpenter. The emperor died immediately as soon as Wei Zhongxian confronted him and left the capital. The third is the cause of death. In history, few emperors fell into the water and died, and these two caught up. The fourth is the events after Emperor Jiajing and Chongzhen succeeded to the throne. The two of them definitely knew something about the reaction. It is not difficult to understand Jiajing's fear towards the harem, the courtiers, and Chongzhen's fear in the early days of his succession. As for Chongzhen's fear of Wei Zhongxian, I personally think that firstly, he was careless. He only knew that his brother was killed, but he had found the wrong target for revenge. After all, the emperor who had deposed all the factory guards could not ask for too much. Secondly, in order to take back his power, he had a lot of desire for power.

Lao Mo's family is sick and he is now seeing a doctor in Beijing. It may take some time to update.

Thank you readers for your strong support! Thanks, Lao Mo!

After reading the recent edicts and rebellions, the emperor personally stood up for the reform. He was so reckless and led the way. There was always an idea in his mind whether there was a reform faction in the Wanli Dynasty. In other words, apart from the fact that the emperor himself knew the impact of reform on the future and destiny of the country because of time travel, did the world have the basic base and underlying foundation to support the reform. I also read some of the history of Peter I's reforms, the Meiji Restoration and the Westernization Movement, and found that they all had something in common. In addition to the feudal landlord class, a group of new aristocrats had appeared in the country at that time. They had demands for improving their political voice. They were not satisfied with the existing wealth distribution method and wanted to change it. Revolutionary actions were not initiated suddenly by the emperor slapping his forehead. The emperor's actions simply complied with or took advantage of the needs and wishes of another emerging force. This emerging force was real and powerful. They represented more efficient productivity and production methods. In other words, the emperor was not fighting alone against a group of landlords. However, back to the end of the Ming Dynasty, let alone the big bourgeoisie that controlled factories, mines and industries, there was no emerging force that had certain strength and was dissatisfied with the monopoly of political resources by the old feudal landlord class. Take Zhang Juzheng, the biggest tool man who currently cooperates closely with the emperor. First of all, he is a At most, a feudal bureaucrat has the insight of an enlightened gentry and a concern for the country and the people. Secondly, he is a capable politician. But no matter what, his thoughts and ideas are limited by the limitations of the times and class, and must also conform to his own origin and position. He carries out reforms firstly to implement reforms. To develop his political ambitions and leave his own political mark, the second is to crack down on and suppress dissidents through changes to old rules and establish authority to enhance his own voice. The third is to solve the thorny problems facing the court. He can no longer ask for more. He and his opponents have no basis. There is a qualitative difference, or there is no life-and-death class conflict. They may use reforms as a means of subverting officialdom and party struggle, but do not have the consciousness to push the tide of the times and die for it. Whether they have firm determination for reform is a big question mark. So I reflect on it and feel that the emperor set a clear target at the beginning and talked about the reform program. It is not good to overthrow the old system on a large scale. He is too ambitious, and the resistance will increase exponentially, and the basic market is not stable. In fact, Ming Dynasty has a unified domestic market, without external forces and conservative religions. Threat, with a mature bureaucratic governance system, the foundation is much better than that of Japan and Russia. It can extend the industrial chain through colonization, establishment of factories and mines, and education, cultivate emerging forces, slowly increase the bargaining chips in its hands, and strengthen the power of the reformists, instead of engaging in an all-out confrontation with the old landlords on the overall situation from the beginning.

Writing history books for modern people is better than fast-food Internet articles. You read some classical Chinese articles from time to time, which is embarrassing. On the one hand, you want to show off your own skills. Have you considered that book friends like to read classical Chinese articles? There are also many weird emperors in the Ming Dynasty, and Emperor Wanli is considered mediocre. You actually described that you were afraid that the Queen Mother would join forces with Lao Zhang to dethrone the emperor. I'm afraid you are overthinking. The Ming Dynasty was a world of scholars. If the harem dared to interfere too much in politics, I'm afraid they would be sprayed to death.

I think those who write about time travel, the harem route, and the imperial system are very vulgar people. Under their own leadership, their country dominates the world, and Chinese culture becomes the world's orthodoxy. From a historical perspective, history is created by the broad masses of the people, not by one person. A great man can only guide history. Dominating the world, long live Chinese culture, is a completely wrong idea. Culture should be diverse, just like genetic diversity. Those species with a single gene have become extinct in the long history of evolution. A culture that is harmless must exist, and should be prosperous and protected. There is no distinction between high and low culture. Various cultures breed different talents. Those scientific innovations are the products of different cultures. Culture gives scientific inspiration. Now, aren't we advocating a community with a shared future for mankind? Seeking common ground while reserving differences and developing together is the best strategy. This kind of novel is deep and meaningful. Not only can you relax your body and mind, but it can also improve the quality of the masses.

Some book friends suggested that the newspaper be handed over to Ri Shenglong, but I personally strongly opposed it. In the era of print media, the reputation and integrity of the organizer are extremely important. As a eunuch, Feng Bao came to do this. These two things are inherently incomplete, which will seriously affect the development of this newspaper, and it is very easy to be attacked by scholars. This newspaper will be used as an important weapon in the struggle between the emperor and the Jiangnan scholars in the future, and the organizer needs to have high political literacy. The eunuchs may have some level of education, but they have too few talents. Most of their talents are focused on infighting and flattery. They may be able to get by with conspiracy and fighting, but their level of writing skills is completely inferior to that of the scholar class. If you leave it to them, you will either be unable to fight against the literati and be led around by the nose, or the pages will be filled with fancy articles and useless safety words, and the newspaper will be useless. In the era of autocratic monarchy, the emphasis is on "name and tool, not fake people", and the media is an extremely important tool. Once this newspaper is successful, anyone who officially sponsors it will gain great fame, and ambitious people can take advantage of this fame. So this newspaper must be in the hands of the emperor himself. At best, I am afraid that the people below will not be able to keep up with the emperor's thinking and understand the emperor's spirit. At worst, it prevents someone from trying to get in the way and acts in the middle, making it easier to play a key role at critical moments. For those who come forward below, it is best to find a background that is clean and easy to control. It should be changed frequently and closely monitored in secret.

Objectively speaking, the eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty played a very important role in the political ecology. It can also be said that their positive effects far outweighed their negative effects. 1. The Emperor's Ears and Eyes Although secret service agencies such as Jinyiwei and Dongchang have a bad reputation, objectively speaking, without the existence of these agencies, the emperor would inevitably become deaf and blind. In an imperial political environment, this is unthinkable. 2. The balancer of the cabinet The prime minister system before the Ming Dynasty had a complete set of mutual restraint mechanisms, such as the three provinces and six ministries system. However, the cabinet system of the Ming Dynasty was different from each other. It was not a prime minister system, but was similar to a prime minister system. There was no supervision and checks and balances mechanism. This is one of the reasons why in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the cabinet ministers fought to the death among themselves. The emperor can still rest assured when there is a fight between cabinets, but what if the cabinet members are in harmony, or even like each other? Therefore, there must be a second constraining political force. The Chief of Ceremony, headed by the eunuch, became a powerful tool to balance the power of the cabinet, forming a pattern of mutual checks and balances in which the cabinet was the "foreign minister" and the eunuch who held the seal was the "internal minister." It has played an effective preventive role against the cabinet's exclusive power. The eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty were indeed extremely corrupt, but in my personal opinion, abolishing the Dongchang was a foolish move.
