As a senior Ming Dynasty fan and a bookworm who has been reading for 20 years, this book about Wanli's reform is really amazing to me. I have read thousands of Ming Chuan's books. You can't say it is the best, but the reformation's conception and details are vividly displayed, and it is also refreshing. It is both readable and written in semi-literary Chinese, which makes readers with a certain level of education mesmerized. I usually like to skip reading because I know the back after reading the front, but I really read this book at a glance. It makes people have aftertaste after reading it, and this article fully considers the real situation at that time. After reading it, it makes people feel that it seems that the reform can be successful by doing this. The details are true, and it has already been voted on in October. Come on, author!
The emperor was really a failure. Before Zhang Juzheng got up, he hid behind Zhang Juzheng and asked Zhang Juzheng to take the lead in everything. He hid behind and wished that Zhang Juzheng could live a long life. If nothing happened, he would make a small book to record the names of officials, and then indulge in sexual intercourse. I want to do something, and it's time to show off. Write some modern methods to the ministers who do things, and shock the ministers. Now that Zhang Juzheng is dead, no one is standing in the way. They will also give Zhang Juzheng a beautiful posthumous title, increase the number of children his parents can have, and let officials learn from Zhang Juzheng. After doing this, the emperor fell into disgrace again. He also appointed people who did not support the reform as his chief ministers, and watched as the ministers who supported the reform were impeached and harassed every day. Seeing Tian scribbling in a small notebook, he felt very proud. Compared with Chongzhen, Chongzhen wanted to do more, but his ability was limited and he did the wrong things. This emperor is capable, but he just holds back and is complacent. Just like one is a eunuch with his body, and the other is a eunuch with his heart.
I feel that the follow-up can properly describe the changes in the lives of the lower class people before, during and after the reform. This should also be a kind of refreshment. I feel that what I like most about this book so far is that the protagonist has greatly curbed Zhang Juzheng's human evil and highlighted his responsibilities as a politician. Such a Zhang Juzheng should be more admirable than in history, with political ideals and understanding of the advancement and retreat of his ministers. The reforms presided over by Taoist Zhang Juzheng are very exciting. I hope that the king and his ministers can get along with each other, from beginning to end. After all, when reading historical novels, I still hope to make up for some regrets in Ming history. Come on, the author, the writing is very good, and the details are handled very comfortably, but there are too few and it is not enough to read.
What the protagonist should do now, the reform should be to sort out the relationship between the powers and responsibilities of the central government, let the cabinet and the six ministries connect with each other, depending on the situation, it seems possible to restore the prime minister system, and at the local level, set the governor and temporary dispatch as permanent provincial positions, reform the fiscal and taxation system, and consolidate The tax base is specially separated from the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Finance to establish the financial budget. Talent selection is not limited to the imperial examination, but the talent selection is diversified. In terms of military, we can follow the original history, improve the camp system since the late Ming Dynasty, restore the governor's office in the early dynasty, and improve the treatment of military personnel. To train qualified officers, the garrison system became a settlement institution in newly conquered lands, and a paramilitary institution rather than a standing army unit. As for the emperor's relatives, they were all transferred to the central government to reduce local pressure and allow poor clans to serve as officials, engage in business and take exams.
The more I read this book, the more I felt speechless. First of all, the description of the gentry was too distorted, and it also dramatized the struggle in the court. The author describes everything from the high officials to the gentry, and they are all carved from the same mold. From confession to dialogue, I can't wait to write "I am a national traitor" on my face.
This emperor is incapable of doing things without people, and he dares not do things. He is a waste. The identification has been completed.
Let me briefly talk about my feelings! I spent some time and read the latest chapter. The first thing about this article is that there is no sense of violation. It does not make people feel that the protagonist is less than 10 years old. This is very good. There is no special emphasis on the age of the protagonist. The second point is that the article is logically clear and reasonable, and can be self-explanatory. It is not as refreshing as Xiaobai's article, so it is suitable for Laobai readers. The third point is the plot arrangement of the article. Unlike other novels written about Wanli, which kneel and lick Zhang Juzheng, this article makes good use of the art of emperors and the way of balance. The fourth point is that the characterization is profound, unlike other novels where people think that they can do whatever they want just because they are the emperor, and they completely regard other people as tools. Of course, the shortcomings are also obvious. The update speed is too slow, which is not suitable for the rhythm of online articles. Unless it is an old author with its own traffic, there is a high probability that new authors will become eunuchs. In this materialistic era, it is too difficult for new authors. Let's take a look and cherish it!
It seems to be well written, but I have a few questions. 1. As a king of the Ming Dynasty, Jin Yiwei's role is not reflected at all 2. Mao Yuwen of Jin Yiwei is overtly and secretly biased towards civil servants and has not done good things several times. Why not kill or replace them? Still treat him well? Jin Yiwei serves as the royal eyes and ears and does some dirty work for the emperor. The result is really speechless 3. Gu Moumou is involved in every incident. Jin Yiwei didn't find out at all? Do you need to take it out from time to time to make you feel sick? Is this plot design reasonable? 4. As an emperor, he has a lot of power in his hands. After taking office, he is still timid in doing things. While constantly restricting the behavior of factory guards, he is still using this unreliable Jin Yiwei? I would like to ask, as an emperor, and a so-called wise and mighty emperor, is it reasonable? 5. Every time things seem to be controlled remotely from behind, in fact, in the end, it is the protagonist who comes out to solve the problem. It happens once, twice, and every time. Do you really think those officials are fools? And every time the plot is designed, the officials think it is a problem with the cabinet! This kind of plot device can only be used once or twice. Don't use it all the time! With this kind of plot design, you don't need to read the subsequent plots, which will make you tired. 6. Every time there are many details in the plot, they are always mentioned at the beginning and then dropped. This is unreasonable! You can't ignore other details just for the sake of the main plot, or else don't mention them! Among the above issues, what I disagree with the most is the unreasonable positioning and design of Jin Yiwei, because this is related to the fact that the protagonist should have his own eyes and ears to implement every plot implementation, but my own eyes and ears are not obedient, so I still let this kind of person not figure it out. Such an emperor can easily form his own information cocoon. There is no other time-traveler who really knows everything
The Qing Dynasty was able to implement the integration of officials and gentry, conduct an inventory of land throughout the country, and return all losses to the public. They were all killed with swords. Kill until rivers of blood flow
A population census should be conducted before the fifteenth year of Wanli. In the past three hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, the official population was around 50 to 60 million. The real population should be more than this and more than 100 million people.
