My Father, Emperor Chongzhen

It's quite good. It's rare to see this kind of Chongzhen with a clear mind, but also unable to do anything. The late Ming Dynasty cannot be changed by one person or by doing a few things. Civil servants, nobles, generals, eunuchs, clans, gentry, landlords, merchants, bandits, soldiers, etc. There is me among you and you among me, and all the interest chains are intricate. If a single move affects the whole body, it can only be papered. The reform of the situation at the end of the Ming Dynasty could not save the Ming Dynasty, it could only overthrow it and start over. And there needs to be a strong leader, but none of the rebels in the late Ming Dynasty could take on the task. I have always disagreed with the statement that Zhang Juzheng's reforms saved the Ming Dynasty for fifty years. Zhang Juzheng's reform direction was not wrong, but the people he reformed were civilians, not officials, gentry, nobles, or clans. Seventy percent of the land in the world is in the hands of officials, gentry, nobles, and clans. When the land was cleared, their fields were also cleared, but it was useless. How could it be possible to do things well with a bunch of interest groups? Most of the fields were still hidden. The physical tax was changed to Nayin, and the money was in the hands of the powerful and the gentry and merchants. The common people had no money. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the handicraft industry in the south was developed, and most of the money from sea trade was concentrated in the south, while there was little silver in the north. When the people had no money to pay taxes, they had to buy grain from merchants and gentry, and these people desperately kept the price of grain down. The people sold the grain for copper coins, and then exchanged it for silver to pay taxes. However, there were few officially minted copper coins in the Ming Dynasty and circulated, and all those circulating in the market were inferior coins minted by private parties. How much can the common people get after being exploited layer by layer in this way? This also accelerates land annexation. Therefore, the refugees who lost their land came one after another. The total population at the end of the Ming Dynasty was probably between 150 million and 300 million (the statistics of the Ming Dynasty are too confusing and basically have not changed much since Zhu Yuanzhang founded the country. 150 Million to 300 million are rough estimates, and may be more) Why was there not so much opposition and fierceness when Zhang Juzheng was alive? Given that the urinary behavior of the civil servants in the Ming Dynasty really affected their profits, could Zhang Juzheng sit firmly in the position of chief minister for ten years. The main issue in the liquidation after Zhang Juzheng's death was the liquidation of his political opponents. The clearing of land and the conversion of property in kind into banknotes and taxes are essentially a gluttonous feast for the gentry and landlords

Persistence is victory. If you are a eunuch this time. If you don't get good grades next time, will you still be a eunuch? Your writing is not bad, but the number of words is too few. Many people are used to raising money first. I dare not say anything else. Keep writing, and ten thousand a month will definitely be no problem. When I first read Xian Ni, my score was slightly better than yours, so I thought Xian Ni would be popular if it was written down. This book of yours can do the same.

I have seen a lot of history volumes and historical materials, but this book actually has some spare time to cover literature. The quotations from ancient texts in the dialogues between the characters are just right, both accurate and relevant to the characters, which is simply amazing. The Book of Songs was quoted in my heart. Such a profound foundation in classical Chinese writing, I don't know how long it will last in a serialized online novel. Anyway, if the author adds more updates, all the votes will be given to you.

In the 17th year of Chongzhen's reign, plague occurred in Beijing. The reason why Li Zicheng was able to conquer Beijing was because the severe plague caused the Beijing camp's combat effectiveness to decline. Has the protagonist figured out what to do?

It is suggested that the author should continue to persevere. Everything is difficult at the beginning, but as long as you persevere, you can become a masterpiece. According to the author's writing style and historical skills, if he writes another 50 chapters, it may become a hit.

Is there any follow-up? Let me know secretly on another account. It's rare to see a novel that speaks for Chongzhen's ability.

This book is well written. I found another good book.

The logic is meticulous and the narrative is orderly, very good

I gave you two monthly passes, cheers for the little prince

I have a bold idea, that is, the protagonist travels back to the 13th year of Chongzhen, the crown prince Zhu Cixiang. At the same time, Emperor Chongzhen became ill due to overwork and died of illness in the 13th year of Chongzhen. The good news is that Chongzhen died early, but the bad news is that Chongzhen left the protagonist with an out-and-out mess. See how the protagonist shows off his talents and revives the Ming Dynasty.
