Because in the eighth year of Wanli, Hangzhou once again organized the people's night patrol.

This time, Ding Shiqing was also unhappy, so he went to report to the official first, and the government didn't care about the matter; Ding Shiqing went to Beijing alone to file a complaint, but how could he make his voice heard when he was a student who had no chance with his career? Zaijing was deceived back, but the matter still couldn't be resolved.

In the past, Ding Shiqing pleaded his case in Hangzhou City, even if the matter was not resolved, no one would do anything to him, but this time he went to Beijing to complain seems to have touched the bottom line of the magistrate, and they arrested Ding Shiqing and tortured him.

This angered the citizens of Hangzhou, and when the mutiny was demanding, there were already people cheering along the streets, shouting and gathering, and then the people rebelled, and it has become a scene where no one can control it.

"The three military governments of the East, the South Ocean, and the West pay attention to winning people's money and eliminating disasters for others, right?"

The emperor slowly put the letter on his desk, he was thinking about one thing, not a mutiny, not a rebellion, he squinted at the Huo De Xingjun in the Qianqing Palace, and muttered: "Wang An, you said this money, where did it go?" ”

"What kind of money is Grandpa asking?"

The military expenses of the imperial court, Hangzhou is a battalion soldiers, not a guard, and their military expenses are also financially responsible.

Hangzhou City's intershelf tax, regardless of whether the money is more or less, Hangzhou City collects this money for the people to hire people to patrol the night, the people pay the money, but they still have to go to the night patrol, this is not only a matter of patrolling the night, indicating that Hangzhou City did not pay to hire people to patrol the night, so where did the money go?

"If they hand over this money to me, I don't blame him, but just make him a mediocre and immoral shameless." Wanli said, the little round face was ruthless, and the little white tooth clasped his lower lip and said: "But I didn't receive the money, ruining my reputation, how can there be such a person?" How could such a thing be? The imperial court didn't let me leave the Forbidden City, just because of these things? ”

"If it weren't for the people who robbed the telegraph room, I would never have known that such a thing happened in the world!"

Speaking of which, Wanli was already furious.

He felt that he had been greatly deceived.

"Go to the telegraph room and tell Ding Shiqing that I want to recruit him into Beijing, not only him, but also twenty people. , let them take out my grandfather's "Great Message" printed by Grandpa Taizu, and then invite the portrait of Grandpa Taizu out, and then take the telegram and "Great Message" sent by me, holding the portrait of Grandpa Taizu, and go to tie up all the officials they think are corrupt and unsympathetic to the people, and escort them to the capital along the way, and no one can stop them. ”

"Let the officials of the Criminal Department get ready, I will be waiting for them at the south gate of Beijing."

After the emperor gritted his teeth, he clenched his fists and said, "I can't wait to fly to Hangzhou, these kings are doing things like this?" But it came well! ”

If he didn't come, Wanli would have thought that his empire was too peaceful.

"Your Majesty, just leave these things to the courtiers below, you don't have to be angry about it."

As soon as Wang An's words of persuasion fell, Wanli was already in a hurry to shoot the case: "Don't be angry about this? How can I not be angry and hand it over to the courtiers below, the courtiers want to fight the chaos and suppress it, of course the courtiers will also solve the problem, but that will have to wait until the chaos is over and the suppression is over to solve the problem, that is their job. ”

"I'm different, I can solve the problem directly, because I'm the emperor, the only emperor." Wanli didn't know what he suddenly thought of when he said this, his expression was a little helpless, and he waved his hand and said: "Go and send a telegram, and then send a Xichang tiqi, a hundred households, go to Hangzhou and wait for the telegram." ”

Wang An received the order and saluted: "Yes!" ”

In the empty Qianqing Palace, the emperor walked to the side of Huo De Xingjun, touched the god's head with an unkind expression, and muttered to himself: "I am working hard, I don't even ride you anymore, I don't hug the cat, and I think about fighting wits and courage with the clan and courtiers all day long, and they repay me like this?" ”

In fact, Wanli showed helplessness on his face just now, because he already felt it.

I feel that even if I am extremely prestigious, even if I reach the peak of my monarch's charm, I still can't completely rule the world.

The world is too big.

When I was a child, I never thought about how big those places were, but now that I think about it, what will he rule over two capitals, 13 provinces, 140 prefectures, 193 prefectures, and 1,138 counties? Bureaucracy.

In front of the table in the Qianqing Palace, the young emperor wrote down the words herdsmen, wolves, dogs, and sheep with a pen.

Wanli has gradually realized that the starting point of seizing power that he has always wanted is right, but the way is wrong.

If the herdsman wants to save trouble, he must take care of the yellow dog, and the yellow dog will lead the sheep and drive away the wild wolves outside, but the situation he is facing at the moment is that the wild wolves outside are not as powerful as his eagle dogs, and the lambs inside are far less eaten by wolves than by their own yellow dogs.

He can pick out some of the good ones from the yellow dogs and expel some of the ones who always steal the lambs, but the number of yellow dogs is always increasing, and generations of herdsmen will be like him, picking out some of the good ones and driving out some of the sheep stealers.

Once the herdsmen are too lazy to choose, or the yellow dogs raised by the herders are too smart, they secretly eat sheep and never let the herdsmen know, and things will go bad.

This fact means that he wants to monopolize power, and he always wants to monopolize power, but the premise of monopolization is that this bureaucratic system still exists.

It is the so-called Compendium Law.

It's the system.

And the system is not planned by a saint, nor is it like the suggestion in the letter of the Oriental marshal Chen Muhui to himself, the prospect of the future, and sent the system of various countries for his reference.

Wanli had seen those systems and conjectures, but he didn't take them to heart.

The establishment of the system is based on the fact that everyone is satisfied, to put it bluntly, they can eat enough, and they can eat enough when they sit without being angry.

can eat well, feel angry, and the people in the Beiyang Industrial Zone, who are more displaced in the traditional sense, still live a good life; If you can't eat enough, even if it's just a night patrol or a cut, Hangzhou City will still make trouble.

The imperial court can send troops to suppress it, and the elite army he has is, the Jinyi Guard of the Imperial City, the Four Guards Battalion of Personal Training, and the Beiyang Sixth Phase of the Great Wall Root, they can fight all over the world, suppress a rebellion and suppress an uprising, which is as easy as a breeze.

But if you kill it this time, the next time you change places, the same reason will still make trouble, and it will be even worse.

This time, Ding Shiqing ran for 18 years and didn't get things done, what a good temper is this? replaced him Wanli Ye, who took his money and didn't give him anything, he was going to flip the table the next day, and Ding Shiqing ran for 18 years.

This is actually the reason why Wanli has no intention of referring to the system of the world.

His Ming Empire stands at the fork of the past and the future, this is a great empire independent of the world, and the road to be taken by this great empire should be the way for the people of the empire to play with the current situation of the empire, not the road between the people of other countries and other countries.

What Wanli intends to do is to establish a small system and create an opportunity for his people to play a fair game with the bureaucracy.

Let the common people have a voice.
