The 1054th palm, holding a sharp blade to kill the heart
Chen Ying was in charge of the Star Gazing Tower in Zhongnan Mountain. While improving his martial arts skills, he silently promoted the rapid development of martial arts.
With the prosperity of martial arts, the entire Ming Dynasty territory, especially the northern region where the number of warriors increased sharply, had undergone earth-shaking changes in the overall social environment.
The powerful and powerful gentry that originally wanted to seek common people and controlled their power of life and death have begun to become low-key in recent years, and even tried to move closer to the direction of small transparency.
It is the local governments that have always been controlled by local forces, and have become more honest and responsible recently.
For no other reason, the common people they have always looked down upon have mastered quite powerful force and are no longer at their own disposal.
From time to time, some landlords in the north forced too much for wealth and unkindness, which caused rumors that local warriors were furious and killed people and destroyed their families.
What's even more exaggerated is that a certain gentry family joined forces with local governments to seize the fields in the hands of local self-cultivated farmers.
As a result, a warrior from a local self-cultivated farmer family forced himself to break into the houses of gentry and killed them. At the same time, he rushed directly to the local government office to kill the officials involved in this time.
Such things did not happen in two cases, but since the carpenter emperor came to power, they had happened one or two times from time to time, causing shock to the entire Ming Empire's power class.
They were shocked to find that the common people who used to be fine, who had no choice but to struggle, became so hideous and difficult to control after having the ability to resist.
Only then did they realize the importance of the six doors.
Unfortunately, as long as Chen Ying, the former chief minister of the cabinet, did not quit for a day, the court, including the carpenter emperor, would not easily interfere in the affairs of the Six Doors.
If one is wrong, Chen Ying, the old monster who just retired and returned to the capital court again.
If such a situation really happens, all the officials in the local area of the emperor will not be willing to accept it.
Just kidding, Chen Ying is not only old, but also has a very experienced experience and has a very powerful wrist ability.
During his reign, all officials and local gentry and wealthy people suffered a lot.
With six doors, local officials should not count on the high mountains and the emperor far away, as the cabinet will not know what they are doing.
It can be said that during Chen Ying's rule, the atmosphere in the Ming Dynasty's officialdom was quite good.
Even when some officials communicated privately, they believed that they were better than the Taizu period.
Although he had zero tolerance for corrupt officials during the Taizu period, he would peel the skin and make them very thin.
But if the salary of officials is too low, it is impossible to support the family, let alone a wealthy life. How could it be that it is not greedy?
Of course, Chen Ying would not be so harsh. He was too lazy to pay attention to some gray incomes that were already conventional in the officialdom, but once he attacked the common people, he would never tolerate it.
In addition, Chen Ying had extremely high requirements for officials during his administration, and even directly subdivided the rules of various officials in the name of the cabinet. Anyone who did not abide by the rules would not end up well.
He said it was very rude. At this time of the Ming Dynasty, there were too many people who wanted to be an official and were qualified to be an official. If they couldn't do it well, they would naturally be the one who took over.
Chen Ying said this and did so. During his administration, whether it was a court official or a local official, there were many people who were removed from his black hat.
To be more precise, every fifteen years or so, at least one-third of the officials in almost the entire court and local officialdom were taken down.
It can be said that during his reign, he was really a miserable life.
But, those newly-recent Jinshi and those who have been on the bench for many years and have been waiting for arrangements are Chen Ying's staunch supporters.
After Chen Ying was in power for 38 years, he had almost changed all the original court officials.
Local officials have not fallen well, and officials are in trouble almost every year.
Not all of them are lost and dismissed. Many of them are directly sent to the bench because of their negligence and laziness.
In short, during Chen Ying's rule, it was considered the most clear-minded period of the entire Ming Dynasty.
Mainly, the upward channel from the bottom to the upper layer is very smooth, and there are many opportunities.
No family can engage in power monopoly. Even the aristocratic families with mixed forces cannot withstand the thunderous means of Chen Ying, the chief minister of the cabinet.
The current officials in the court have personally experienced the Chen Ying era when he was not in trouble.
Not to mention that the local gentry and powerful people are doing too much, and they will force the people to rebel and get themselves and their families in.
Even if there is a civil rebellion, they will not be able to let Chen Ying, who has retired and returned to the court.
But without the cooperation of six doors, the court felt a headache for the sudden situation.
There are some masters in the Jinyiwei and the East and West Factory, but their main energy is basically all in the capital to maintain the status of the emperor.
They also know the great rise of martial arts. If you don’t have a good time, you may offend the Guanzhong martial artist group. That’s not just a joke.
Besides, there are too many masters in the martial arts lineage. If they really attract all the innate warriors, they will have to be numb.
As for the things that warriors in various places have committed, according to their original intention, they don’t want to interfere at all. They really think that the gentry and landlords and powerful people who were killed were all good things.
Didn't you see any movement in the six doors?
If those warriors commit crimes, see if the Six Gates will remain indifferent?
Some things are not clear about by those noble men. As members of the Jinyiwei and the East and West Factory operations who do specific things, they naturally have a clear idea.
Otherwise, even if the emperor's name is supported, they may die without a burial place after leaving the capital.
On the other hand, the crimes committed by warriors from all over the country were actually very helpful to the improvement of the status of the Jinyiwei and the East and West factories.
Since the officials in the local government offices are not very useful, the imperial court wants to suppress the local government and intimidate local warriors, so it is naturally necessary to rely on the power of the Jinyiwei and the East and West Factory, at least there should not be too many restrictions.
You know, in the current northern land, warriors almost appeared in a blowout.
The Jinyiwei and the East and West Factory have absorbed a lot both on the surface and in secret.
They naturally knew that as time passed, the strength of warriors walking outside would only become stronger and stronger.
If there are many masters everywhere one day, I am afraid that the court will not be able to suppress them easily if they want to suppress them.
Just kidding, at that time, the army will be dispatched to strangle the small-scale warrior group, but what if you encounter hundreds of third-rate warriors?
In short, with the rise of martial arts, the number of warriors has exploded, and the social environment in the northern part of the Ming Empire was greatly affected.
Local gentry and landlords have become powerful, and their power to control the local area has become loose...
