"According to what Lao Wu said, our Ming Dynasty fell because of these holes."

After changing his mind, Lao Zhu immediately began to recall what Zhu Su said. He stood up and walked around in the moonlight.

"Disaster, officials, army, Tatars."

"Natural disasters continue, and the people have less to eat; officials are corrupt, and there are no available people; the army is so weak that it cannot even defeat rogue bandits; Tatars attack the border, and both sides of the court are putting out fires."

If Zhu Su were here, he would definitely be amazed by Lao Zhu's amazing summarizing ability.

You know, the conversation in the Qianqing Palace was all about talking about whatever came to mind. It was very general and the words were neither systematic nor organized.

Lao Zhu was able to find the center of gravity with great accuracy in this bunch of incompatible prefaces and subtitles, and he was able to explain the situation in the late Ming Dynasty to seven or eight points.

This skill is worthy of establishing the country.

"Chongba, do you have an idea?" Queen Ma asked him.

"It's not that easy." Lao Zhu shook his head irritably. "I was so angry that I didn't ask Lao Wu carefully. What's more, that happened more than two hundred years later. Even if we left the policy, we couldn't prevent it. There are some unfilial descendants who sing wrong scriptures to us!"

"Three feet of ice does not happen in a day. It must have slowly evolved from generation to generation."

"Oh, this hole is not easy to mend."

"Then what should we do?" Queen Ma said. "We know this, but we have to do our best. Whatever troubles the Ming Dynasty will have in the future, it is best to eradicate them one by one for future generations."

"Even if new holes gradually appear, as long as our generation has laid a good foundation and the world is in the hands of a good boy like Chongzhen in future generations, he will not be helpless."

"Sister, what you said makes sense." Lao Zhu nodded. "We still need to have a good talk with Lao Wu. Maybe we can get some good ideas from him."

"However, there is a hole. Now we can completely plug it for future generations. By the way, help our good son Chongzhen to breathe a good sigh of relief!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said, his eyes already gleaming fiercely.

"Chongba, you mean..." Queen Ma also responded.

"That's right. It's exactly what my sister was thinking." Lao Zhu smiled coldly. "This time, my sister won't advise us not to go on a killing spree, right?"

Queen Ma also guessed it. But she was just stunned, then smiled at Lao Zhu and shook her head.

She is not one of those ordinary women who only know the kindness of women...

……

"Your Majesty, long blessings!"

It was still dark yet, but the Jinshen Hall was already brightly lit with candles. Seeing the emperor approaching in bright yellow dragon robes, all the officials hurriedly bowed and saluted, and greeted him in unison.

"Get up." Lao Zhu rolled up his sleeves, his face full of solemnity. He had been awake all night, but he was not tired at all. However, his whole body exuded waves of royal majesty.

"Your Majesty, what's going on..." His Majesty Dan, some of the courtiers secretly raised their eyes to observe Zhu Yuanzhang, guessing what Lao Zhu meant.

Since the Northern Expedition a few days ago, this is the second time that ministers have been suddenly summoned to the palace. Moreover, this time not only officials from the Zhongshu Province, but also officials from the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War, as well as dignitaries and generals in Beijing were also summoned.

They were called into the palace. Even Prince Zhu Biao was present.

As for the most abnormal thing, it is...

The ministers were surprised to find that Queen Ma, who had rarely appeared in front of the ministers since the founding of the People's Republic of China, was also wearing a very formal and luxurious robe and was sitting on the left side of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang.

What kind of big event is it that requires such a big battle?

"Neutral." Lao Zhu spoke amidst the panic among the ministers. "Let me ask you. Is the name 'Jianzhou Jurchen' included in the list of tributes previously paid by the Ministry of Rites?"

Neutral is the word of Tao Kai, the Minister of Rites. Tao Kai hurriedly responded, but was stunned after hearing Lao Zhu's words. "Jianzhou Jurchen?"

"Yes, it's this bad name." Lao Zhu's voice sounded like it came from the Nine Nether Hell. "Who can tell me, where does this Jianzhou Jurchen live now? How many tribes are there in total?"

Not only Tao Kai, but also all the civil and military officials in the palace were confused by Lao Zhu's question. Jianzhou Jurchen? What the hell?

Never heard of it?

Even in the Jin Dynasty established by the Jurchens, the Jianzhou Jurchens were just an inconspicuous small tribe. What's more, at this time, the Jianzhou Jurchens had not yet established contact with the Ming Dynasty, and they did not even have a name.

It’s officially established.

The Jianzhou Jurchens were originally the Aoduolian Wanhu Mansion among the 50,000 households in Yuanting. After the fall of the Yuan Dynasty, the Jianzhou Jurchens were divided into three tribes: the Huli Gai tribe, the Tuowen tribe, and the Oduoli tribe.

After losing Yuanting's thigh, their strength became weaker and weaker. They were chased and bitten by the wild Jurchen, and they fled all the way to the Amu River area on the south bank of the Tumen River. They were in panic all day long.

It was not until the 21st year of Hongwu that Lao Zhu established contact with the three Jurchen tribes in Jianzhou, intending to win them over to jointly fight against Yuanting. Only then were the three Jurchen tribes in Jianzhou able to move along the Songhua River and Mudan River and settle down in the Tumen River Basin.

In the first year of Yongle, Emperor Yongle Zhu Di established the Jianzhou Guard, and then successively established the Jianzhou Left Guard and the Right Guard. Only then did the collective name "Jianzhou Jurchen" come into being. After that, several emperors of the Ming Dynasty added it several times.

Yes.

For these Jurchens, the Ming Dynasty government adopted an extremely lenient approach, accepting and settling them with an unprecedented generosity and benevolence.

The treatment given to them by the Ming government was even much higher than that given to Han people. Meng Sen, a modern Qing historian, once lamented: "The Ming Dynasty benefited those who belonged to the barbarians, and Jianzhou Jurchens were treated the most favorably!"

However, it feeds a white-eyed wolf!

Although Zhu Su knew some history, he was unaware of the evolution and migration of the Jianzhou Jurchens. Naturally, he also didn’t know that the Jianzhou Jurchens didn’t even have an official name. So Lao Zhu called the Jianzhou Jurchens “Jianzhou Jurchens.”

As soon as the four words came out, all the civil and military officials in the court were confused, and no one knew about it.

Zhu Su hasn't used the name "Taqing" yet!

In fact, even if they have heard of this name, they will probably forget it soon. After all, the Jianzhou Jurchens are too weak. Compared to the Ming Dynasty, they are like ants, a lost dog that is not worth caring about.<

/p>

If the Ming Dynasty hadn't been looking for forces that could help it contain the Meng Yuan Dynasty at that time, and if it hadn't been for the blessing of the Ming Dynasty in the future, they would have been lost in the long river of history!

How could it be noticed by today’s Ming ministers?

"I have thought about the list of tribes in various countries in the Ministry of Rites. When I came back to your majesty, there was no Jurchen named Jianzhou." Tao Kai, the Ministry of Rites, confirmed it three times in his mind before kneeling down and reporting to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Your Majesty, there is no relevant information from the Ministry of War." The Minister of the Ministry of War also reported. "I think... this Jurchen tribe may not exist, or it may be just a small and unknown tribe."

"That's why we didn't hear anything."

"Don't you all know?" Lao Zhu's face darkened.

All the officials looked at each other without saying anything, and Lao Zhu was furious.

Could it be that this Jianzhou Jurchen really does not exist now?

Can’t we even fill this small hole for our descendants?

"Think quickly! Today, we must find this Jianzhou Jurchen for us!" Lao Zhu became irrational. "If we find a Jianzhou Jurchen, we will remember him as a great contributor!"

The scene remained silent. The ministers had no choice but to think hard, but still couldn't think of a reason.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty!"

"Slave, I want to come. I know that Jianzhou Jurchen..."
