This year's winter has been extremely cold. Therefore, after Mao Wenlong's battle with Japan, and after Nurhaci's probing attack against Zhang Pan failed, no matter which side they were in, they all wisely chose Maodong. Because here

In the weather that has never been seen in a century, not to mention fighting, frostbite and attrition can cause an army to lose its combat effectiveness and be completely paralyzed. It seems that the world is peaceful again.

Should I take this opportunity to go back to Beijing to see the changes in the city, my wife, my eldest son, and the little girl I picked up?

But after thinking about it for a few days, Mao Wenlong decided not to go back. If he goes back, he will inevitably fall into the whirlpool of party struggle again. He is the scavenger in a box of carps. As long as he goes back, Donglin will attack him with all his strength, not himself.

, they feel uncomfortable. But their tempers are getting louder and louder. If they bite, of course they will bite back. This kind of calm carp box will be turned upside down immediately.

Now the Ming Dynasty is doing its best to carry out the great cause of disaster relief and self-rescue, and it cannot mess up the situation of the dynasty.

At the same time, Mao Wenlong also knew that the current calm of the Jin Dynasty tomorrow is just the calm before the war. With the warmth of spring, it will explode with greater energy. He cannot be trapped in the party struggle in the capital and cannot escape. He has a lot to do.

.

First of all, he has decided to go all out to develop firearms, especially flintlock guns, which requires a lot of steel, and he must solve this bottleneck. In this way, he must go to Iron Mountain, and then pressure North Korea's Iron Mountain Controller Li Guangdao to let him

This is very crucial for the export of iron materials. The second one is to send the small Korean court on Yamato Island to Xuanzhou to set up a banner.

Now Li Zhuo's orthodox court has been trapped and died in Seoul, and his son, the prisoner of the capital of Pyongyang, and the imperial court have also been trapped and killed by the Japanese. Whether Li Zhuo surrendered or died in battle, his court has completely

It was over, and a new court needed to stand up and raise the banner of North Korea's orthodoxy to declare the illegitimacy of the Li Qing court.

So, the first thing to do now is to write a letter to your own court to rectify the name of Lord Guangchang.

Under the spies of Jin Yiwei, the imperial court had already had a clear idea of ​​the situation in North Korea. The entire court had reached a consensus on helping North Korea. But the Ming Dynasty was so busy that it could not allocate money, food, or troops.

Participate in this war. So when Tianqi asked the ministers how to deal with the Korean issue, they were surprisingly unanimous in their opinions. Whether it was Donglin or the eunuch party, including Mao Wenlong's Lonely Minister Party, they all decided unanimously and justifiably issued the decree to send

Mao Wenlong sent troops to North Korea.

The basis for the unification of these three parties is that the Eunuch Party believes that only Mao Wenlong can send troops to avoid disrupting the rhythm of the court. From this point of view, the Eunuch Party still wants to govern the country well.

The Guchen Party agrees because of the above reasons, but also based on reality. Dongjiang Town is the actual foundation of the Guchen Party, and there must be no mistakes. It is better to defend the enemy outside the country than to destroy your own home.

One is that now, with the secret support of the emperor, the eunuch party has captured the Six Gentlemen of Donglin and expelled the Seventy-Three Wise Men. It has gained momentum and has an unstoppable momentum.

Donglin, who was fighting against the eunuchs and restraining the eunuchs, was severely weakened. Even if the emperor and the cabinet provided further support, the elites were gone and they were still powerless. However, the emperor and the cabinet were imprisoned in the head of Donggong Factory.

The seventy-three wise men of Shanshan Academy expressed their support, and allocated 50,000 taels of silver from internal funds to support the food of the scholars from Shanshan Academy who came from all over the country, allowing them to use public opinion to contain the Eunuch Party. But for the Eunuch Party,

The inhibitory effect is not great.

In order to fight against the Eunuch Party, the Lonely Chen Party also hopes that Mao Wenlong will win several more victories, consolidate the foundation of the Lonely Chen Party, enhance the Lonely Chen Party's reputation, and fight against the Eunuch Party.

At this point, as soon as the news of Mao Wenlong's victory in the first battle against Japan came out, the whole country was in a state of excitement. Mao Wenlong's reputation was at its peak and unmatched. He had become the mainstay of the Ming Dynasty. All officials and people believed that as long as Mao Wenlong was in Dongjiang,

In the Ming Dynasty, mainland China can do its own thing without any distractions.

As a result, the Lone Minister Party has become stronger, and the British Duke and Shen Guangzuo have become more confident in their words in court. They want to continue their efforts and make a complete turnaround.

Mao Wenlong asked for a proposal to enthrone Guang Changjun as king. No one objected, but they considered that after all, Li Zhu was not dead, so it would be unkind to abandon him, so he studied it over and over again, and finally decided to make a compromise.

Anyway, Li Jie had to die sooner or later, and he had no descendants, so he used Guang Changjun as a spare tire and named him a supervisor. As soon as Li Jie died, Guang Changjun immediately rectified his name. In order to show his respect for Guang Changjun

The Ming Dynasty took out the Eight Wise King Zhu Youjian as the envoy to be conferred this time as a reward for the temporary grievance against Guang Changjun.

When Mao Wenlong received this decision, he couldn't help but sigh, the old guys in the cabinet really thought things through, and he couldn't compare with them.

Although Zhu Youjian is young now, he has matured. Especially with the help and guidance of Zuo Guangdou and Zheng Guogong, he has really achieved outstanding results.

And those noble disciples who followed him wanted to make great contributions. They screamed and beat down the pole robbers and water pirates who were thousands of miles away from Xinyang. In the end, everyone simply couldn't afford to offend these gangsters.

, we moved, and as a result, there were no more bandits for thousands of miles around Xinyang, which was a rare peace that had not been seen for hundreds of years. Therefore, merchants who originally took other roads would rather go around and go to Xinyang area.

As a result, the prosperity of merchants boosted the economy, and the tax revenue skyrocketed, making it a model district of the Ming Dynasty. The Eight Sage Kings, feeling the country's crisis, took all the tax revenue as their own and paid it all in earnest.

At that time, the grateful Zuo Guangdou burst into tears, the moved Tianqi cried, and the moved Ministry of Household Affairs wrote: "How great would it be if all the princes in the world were like the Eight Wise Kings? Then occupying one-third of the world's land and occupying fiefs, the tax revenue would almost reach

If 60% of the prince's income goes to the national treasury, then the national treasury will be rich.

All the princes in the world were yelling at the unruly Eight Wise Kings. Only the uncle of the two brothers, King Fu, was the first to stand up and donate one million Pingliao silver to the national treasury. Then he gave away his royal fields.

Half of the taxes and income of the fiefdom were handed over to the country, which moved the two brothers inexplicably. It seems that when the world is in trouble, it must be their relatives (uncles and nephews) (this fact is not made up by the author, in history

, King Fu really did this, history really wronged King Fu.)

Reciprocating favors is also the general trend. Tianqi issued a favor order. Anyone like Xiang Fu Wang will hand over half of their income to the state treasury. The court will allow their descendants to buy land or do business, and they will also be allowed to take scientific examinations. It's time for Shenzong to do it.

Half of the royal family's reforms were completely completed under this kind of mutual compromise.

Because all the princes and princes have calculated an account, even if they keep all the original taxes, as the number of their descendants continues to increase, they will hardly be able to support them after three generations. If everyone accepts the emperor's conditions, let go

The restraint on future generations has actually left a way for future generations to survive. So in this way, the Eight Wise King Zhu Youjian's move to share the worries of his brother actually allowed several generations of emperors to implement clan reforms without success, and actually entered such a

Miraculously, after a compromise between both parties, it was successfully completed.
Chapter completed!
