And then there is the Ming Shenzong Zhu Yijun, Ming Xizong Zhu Youjiao.
Zhu Yijun of the Bright God Sect was stunned at first, then shocked. In the end, he did not dare to say anything.
Because he knew better than anyone else what he had done.
However, what he did not expect was that Ming Wang was still some time away from him.
No matter what, it wouldn't be his turn.
But now that things had come to this, he couldn't say anything.
As for Zhu Youxiao of the Ming Xi Sect, he did not even struggle.
He might as well admit to this crime.
He had no choice.
Ever since he took over the throne, he had been pondering how to make wooden furniture every day.
Where would they have the time to manage Da Ming?
Before dying, Da Ming was indeed troubled internally and externally.
Therefore, he knew that he had an unshirkable responsibility.
Therefore, he acknowledged the title of the king of a subjugated country.
......
Let's talk about the video.
After the title was released.
The video started to play.
He began to take stock of what Zhu Yijun of the Bright God Sect had done during the Wanli period.
"During the Wanli era, after Zhang Juzheng's death.”
"He began his period of autocracy."
"However, under no one's control, Wanli actually did the most absurd thing in the world, not going to court for twenty years.”
"Putting aside the fact that he is extremely lazy, as an emperor, he is actually incomparably greedy for money.”
"In order to enrich the treasury, the most absurd and shameless scene in history was staged-the mining tax.”
" In the twenty-fourth year of Wanli, Zhu Yijun directly selected a group of eunuchs from the palace to collect money for him. These people were called 'tax supervisors.'
"The power of the tax inspectors is boundless. They are directly responsible to the emperor and set up independent yamen. Not only are they not restricted by the local officials, but they also have the power to kill the local officials, including the border officials!”
"His mining tax method was insane, directly causing Great Ming to go from mediocrity to darkness.”
" Mine tax method 1: If there is indeed a silver mine in a place, in order to complete the emperor's imperial decree, immediately levy corvee in the entire county and prefecture.”
"What is it? The "One Whip Law" stipulated that silver could be used to offset corvee? Very good, give me the money!"
" Method 2: Find a rich family. After field investigation and exploration, the tax supervisor and his entourage unanimously believe that there is a rich silver mine under this family's house. In order to complete the emperor's imperial edict, they will immediately send people to mine it.”
"Mining silver ores naturally requires the demolition of houses. What? You won't let me open it? Very good, give me the money!"
" Method 3: In order to do a good job in mining tax collection, we must mobilize the masses. The silver in the rich families is also considered silver!”
"When the tax supervisor arrives at a prefecture or county, he will immediately announce that any servant or tenant who reports that their master has cash in his house will be rewarded with 30% of the amount of money confiscated.”
This "complaint order" caused the empire to boil. Once it was reported, the tax supervisor would immediately send a group of outlaws (please note that they are not bailiffs or petty officials. These people would not have no scruples at all) to rush into the house and rob it. The person would be imprisoned and the property would be confiscated!”
Once this order was issued,'more than half of the middle-class families were razed.' The wealthy families of the Ming Empire were once again looted.”
" Method 4: The " complaint order " is a passive action. Whether the tax supervisor can grasp the property of the local rich in time depends entirely on the conscience of others. It's really unreliable.”
"You can change from passive to active. For example, find a few local ruffians and hooligans to find out who is the richest.”
"Then, we started to explore for silver mines. How is it possible that we didn't find any silver mines? It must have been the local rich who stole the silver mine. How dare they steal the emperor's silver mine?”
"Arrest them immediately according to the list of rich people! Release him? It's very simple. Give me the money!"
"This method is simple and easy to implement. It can give full play to the initiative of the tax supervisor. It was quickly promoted. Wherever the tax supervisor goes, the rich will be rich."
" Destroy their families immediately. Those above the middle-level are not spared." The remaining well-off families were also wiped out.”
" Method 5: After robbing the rich, there will be another group of people who are even richer. Feudal bureaucrats, emperors, and officials cannot be spared!”
"There's no need to be polite to county magistrates and small officials at the Zhizhou level. Some people threw county magistrates into prison, and some people beat county magistrates to death in court."
"Someone treated the county magistrate as a bullfighter and threw him into the bullring…and falsely accused, murdered, and kidnapped a local official at the provincial governor level.”
"Some people reported the governor behind his back, some poisoned the governor's wine, and some kidnapped the governor's son…Even the officials at the minister level have special treatment-imperial prison.”
"The Imperial Jail is in charge of the Jinyiwei. No matter how high the official rank is, once you enter the Imperial Jail, your family can basically prepare for your funeral. During the Wanli period, there was a new type of business in the imperial prison-the "mine tax prison"!”
"Any high-ranking official who dares to oppose the mining tax will be thrown into the imperial prison. The prison cells here are small, cold in winter and warm in summer. There are various methods to choke to death, diarrhea, and being crushed to death by a cloth bag.”
" Method 6: After snatching the living, we can't let the dead go! "In the eyes of the Bright God Sect, our Ming Empire is vast and rich. The land contains countless treasures, such as ancient tombs.”
"In the twenty-seventh year of Wanli, the mine supervisor of Xingguo Prefecture requested to dig up the tomb of Li Linfu of Tang Dynasty. Since then, Huguang, Shaanxi. All the ancient tombs in the western region had been destroyed. The historical records said," All the tombs of the past dynasties were searched for gold and jade."
.........
"The Wanli mining tax, poor, rich, small officials, high officials, living people, dead people, not a single one was spared.”
"Yang Guangxun, the governor of Shandong Province, was so angry that he slammed the table and cursed, The so-called tax inspectors were just a group of tigers and wolves. They rolled up their sleeves in the day and robbed people. At night, they went to kill and set fire. They were really guilty of heinous crimes, and both gods and men were angry!”
"And Emperor Wanli was not unaware of the harm of the mining tax. In order to make money for himself, he would rather watch the empire be drowned by his own greed day by day.”
" In the 30th year of Wanli, the Ming Empire was already 'unemployed and the people were in a clamor'.
.........
"Similarly, during the Wanli period, Zhu Yijun of the Ming God Sect did not attend court for many years, resulting in a rift with the officials.”
"In addition, his emotions are not constant. In order to deal with the officials, he used all his skills.”
"Thus, throughout the Wanli period, countless officials resigned and went into seclusion.”
"In the end, there were no officials in the important departments of the dynasty.”
"From Minister to Governor to County Magistrate, there are hundreds of vacancies.”
"When Wanli saw this, not only did he not repent, he even filled in the positions of officials.”
"In the end, the Great Ming Dynasty, which had already gone downhill, finally planted the seeds of national subjugation.”
"As a result, no matter how hard the future emperors tried, they could not make up for the damage caused by Wanli.”
..........
" And the Ming Xi Sect is even more ridiculous. After they succeeded to the throne, they did not care about political affairs and were obsessed with carpenters every day.”
"As the emperor, he handed over his power to Wei Zhongxian, the treacherous minister of the late Ming Dynasty.”
"As a result, the people are in dire straits, and corruption is rampant among politicians everywhere.”
"Before he died, he handed over the Great Ming Dynasty to Zhu Youjian.”
"Therefore,"
"The Ming Dynasty began with Zhu Yuanzhang, died with Zhu Yijun, Zhu Youxiao, and finally Zhu Youjian.”
..........
Shen Fei could only say that the Emperor Wanli was not a fatuous ruler.
Because he had not gone to court for twenty years, he could still manage the affairs of the country in an orderly manner.
At the same time, under his guidance, the 150,000-strong Japanese army was wiped out.
However, there was a problem.
To the world, if you defeated the pirates, the people would cheer.
However, because of your greed, the people are in a state of panic all day long. Those who have a little money are forced into a corner.
Under this scene.
So what if it's strong?
A country was strong, but its people were poor. This was a huge flaw for a dynasty.
The slightest carelessness would lead to eternal damnation.
If the people could not survive, they would definitely rebel.
Just like Zhu Yuanzhang himself, he rebelled because he could not live anymore.
If the world was peaceful and the people lived in peace and contentment, who would rebel?
Therefore, Wanli's actions hurt the foundation of the country.
If the foundation of the country was destroyed, killing more enemies would be unnecessary.
