Chapter 784 Becoming a Demon(2/2)
Put pressure on the Ming Dynasty to let the court abandon education reform, land reform, etc.
These gentry groups are extremely powerful and they can be said to want money and people.
In history, there were only tens of thousands of people captured from the East. Without their support, it would have been impossible to unify the world.
Before the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty surrendered, they were almost defeated in the first battle when they fought against the East, but after they surrendered, their combat effectiveness was beyond the limit.
Mainly because they reached a certain deal or consensus with Dongji.
They can help Dongjie pacify the world, and Dongjie promises not to touch their cake.
Fortunately, now, with the help of the southern gentry, the literati have once again brought their talents to smear others to the extreme.
Soon rumors spread in the south that the bandits had not been eliminated at all.
It's just that in order to solve the problem of rogue bandits, the imperial court gave Zhang Xianzhong and others tens of millions of taels of silver...
The common people did not care whether they lived or died, but gave the money collected from the gentlemen to the bandits...
There was also the incident with the Dong captives, which was also a series of consecutive defeats and the Dong captives were not wiped out at all. In the end, in order to avoid a war, they had no choice but to marry the princess to the Eastern captives and allocate all the land outside the pass to the Dong captives for pasture.
This rumor is spreading more and more widely, and it seems to be true.
The common people who didn't know what was going on were also deceived by these hateful literati and gentry, and they were ready to follow them into the streets.
Look at how the literati of the Ming Dynasty treated Emperor Shenwu in such a negative light. They were just confusing right and wrong and spouting shit.
Do you know why Qin Shihuang became a tyrant? This was also caused by corrupt Confucianism.
In history, after Qin Shihuang unified the six kingdoms, did he massacre the founding heroes?
Which of the heroes Wang Jian, Wang Ben, Wang Li, Zhang Han, Meng Wu, Meng Tian, Li Xin, Li Si, Yao Jia, Wei Liao, Zheng Guo, Meng Yi, Feng Jie, and Wang Wan was killed by the First Emperor?
Since the First Emperor didn't kill any of his heroes, why did he become a tyrant?
The Great Wall was also built to prevent the nomads from the north from going south and harming the people.
And Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, was he really as miserable as they wrote?
Although the excavation of the Grand Canal has put great pressure on the people to survive.
However, history has proved that after the Grand Canal connects the north and the south, it will benefit China for generations to come.
Without the unification of the Sui Dynasty, how could the rule of Zhenguan have come about?
…………
In a painting boat on the Qinhuai River, Zhang Ruoqi, Zheng Si and others were drinking and talking happily with faces full of joy.
They are not worried about the situation getting out of control. For them, the more chaotic the Ming Dynasty, the better, and it is best to overthrow the Shenwu Emperor Zhu Cixiang directly.
Zhang Ruolin raised his glass and laughed proudly:
"Hahaha, today's dog emperor is so immoral that he doesn't take the gentry and literati seriously. We are also petitioning for God. It must be very satisfying!"
A civil servant also stood up and raised his glass:
"During the Wanli period, eunuchs were sent to Jiangnan to collect taxes. What was the result?
As a result, we Jiangnan literati beat him to death, and Wanli did not dare to impose any punishment. This land reform and education reform also cannot be carried out."
Zheng Si also raised his glass with a wicked smile on his face:
"That's of course. Scholars and Zhu should coexist in the world. Hongwu is a cowherd. Only scholars can rule the world with him..."
"Hahaha... cheers..."
The leaders of the older generation of literati, Qian Qianyi, Wu Weiye, Zhang Pu and others were either killed by Zhu Cihong or retreated behind the scenes.
They are the current leaders of the Jiangnan literati. In their view, if the Zhu family wants to govern the world, they cannot do without them.
Even if the civil servants in the DPRK are temporarily suppressed by the military attachés, the court will still be in the hands of their civilian officials in the near future.
And those who support them are the huge gentry and literati, who are simply extremely arrogant.
However, when they were carried away with their complacency, they forgot that there is an old saying in China, which is that extreme joy brings sorrow.
After clinking the glasses, before the glasses were brought to the lips, a cold voice suddenly came from:
"Hahaha, they are just a bunch of rotten scholars who dare to criticize the current Holy Lord behind his back..."
A few rotten scholars were talking loudly, and suddenly a cold voice came.
This voice had a bone-chilling chill, and several people immediately felt a chill on their backs.
Looking back, I saw a Jin Yiwei official in Feiyu uniform standing in front of the room door with his hands behind his back, looking coldly at the people present.
They were shocked and hurriedly looked behind this person, but found no one else. Only then did these rotten scholars regain their confidence.
They are surrounded by martial arts masters hired with large sums of money, and they don't care about a royal guard official who will be thrown into the river to feed the bastard.
