Chapter 384: Issuing an Edict to Punish Yourself (I)
If there were no conditions, Qin Kan's suggestion would still be very tempting.
For generations, Huadang and his descendants ensured the dominance of Duoyan, built a city for Duoyan, provided grain and vegetable seeds to the herdsmen of Duoyan for free, and sent officials to teach them to cultivate land for free......
Many benefits, the key words are all "free", from the inside to the outside there is a smell of live Lei Feng, the posture of the state is full, and anyone who changes it will be heartbroken, and agreed without saying a word, and promised to be grateful to Dade, crying bitterly......
It's a pity that there is no free lunch in the world, and if you don't pay for it after eating, you have to stay and wash the dishes, and if you want to get these things, you have to pay the price.
The price is very simple, the Han and Mongolian marriages are just like a wonderful thing, and they can be recorded in the history of interesting anecdotes in the future and passed on to future generations.
However, it is clear that the parties do not think so.
This year, the Ming household department counts the people in the world, Duoyan Sanwei large and small tribes add up to more than 6,000 households, scattered in the grassland desert north of Liaoyang, more than 6,000 households are really not much, because Duoyan has been poor over the years, there must be a lot of male and female singles in each tribe, if you intermarry with the Han people in the border towns of eastern Liaodong, you may be able to solve a lot of problems, but there is a very big trap in this.
After the Han people intermarried with the Mongols of the Duoyan tribe, how did the descendants born count as bloodline? Is it Han Chinese or Mongol? A dozen or even hundreds of households can be ignored, but what about thousands or even thousands of households? In the long run, every herdsman in the Duoyan tribe has more or less Han blood, is this Duoyan still Mongolian? In this era, it is all about blood. In the future, the Duoyan Department is not a Han, it is not blind, it is a mongrel tribe to put it badly, and it is a weak heart to pick up a knife and gun to fight with anyone, and it wants to knock on the border of Daming, want to rob the border town, and want to kill people and set fires...... Who is willing to do the thousands of Duoyan warriors with Han blood?
What's even more poisonous is that the Ming Dynasty also built cities for them, taught them to open up wasteland and farm, and the nomads were assimilated into farming people. Enjoy the sunrise. The farming life at sunset, the days are calm, the stomach is full, who is willing to pick up the sword and play with others?
The most powerful thing about the Han nation lies in: It can merge all things in the world. The Han people are naturally kind and hardworking. and the Confucian and Taoist spirit of advocating benevolence, righteousness and tolerance, and when the two are combined, it can be all-encompassing. The sea is inclusive.

As soon as he thought of this, Qin Kan was excited.
After returning to Beijing from Liaodong, he has been thinking about the tragic scenes of the battle of the Liaohe River, and then he has been thinking about it, intermarriage is the idea he came up with, and he originally planned to wait for Liu Jin to be defeated before implementing it, but today he saw Tana's depressed homesickness, and finally couldn't help but say it.
"Tana, what do you think?"
"Not really." Tana rolled her eyes: "In the words of your Han people, you are called a wolf ambition, and you will never agree to it." ”
Qin Kan smiled: "If you don't agree, you will talk about it later, if you can bring it up, it means that you have taken a step forward, Tana, the matter is big, you don't understand, you are only responsible for going back to the grassland to spread the word, and by the way, cure your homesickness." ”
Tana was impressed.
What moved her heart was not Qin Kan's marriage proposal, but going back to the grassland.
The blue sky, the white clouds, the endless fertile meadows, and the horses galloping freely on the meadows, exhaling and inhaling, are all full of the taste of freedom......
The white shell teeth bit hard: "Okay, I'll go back to the grassland to help you spread the word!" ”
"What a good girl."
The thought of returning to the grassland soon, Tana was in a much better mood, her smile was extremely moving, and her eyes were a little charming.
Giving him a blank look, Tana said: "I'm just helping you pass the word, but I won't be a lobbyist for you, your idea of lack of virtue will definitely be rejected by Ezhige, and at that time, you won't bare your teeth at me like a wolf." ”
Qin Kan smiled: "Do you know what it means to 'have no false will, and you must do what you do'?" ”
Tana shook her head blankly.
"It means that a good person, his ambition is not hypocritical or evil, and his words and deeds are also dignified and upright, these eight words are the first rule of a gentleman." Qin Kan suddenly straightened his chest, and pointed his thumb at his chest: "Immodestly, I am a gentleman." A gentleman doesn't do bad things, you have to trust me. ”
…………
…………
Tana led more than a dozen entourages and nearly a hundred Jinyi lieutenants to leave the Qin Mansion happily, the corners of her mouth raised high were full of pleasure like being released from prison, and she quickly left Beijing and headed north.
Qin Kan stood quietly at the door of the house and watched her leave, the corners of his mouth grinning bigger than Tana.
Li Er stood beside him, and when he saw the smile on the corner of Hou Ye's mouth, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his back.
I don't know how long it took, Qin Kan said indifferently: "Li Er." ”
"Yes."
"Send someone to send a secret letter to Ye Jinquan, asking him to train his troops well, Liaodong's Jinyi Wei Qianhu will cooperate with him to get rid of some incompetent and corrupt generals, and tell him that after three months, there will be a hundred Fran cannons equipped with Liaodong Liuwei, let him pull out the team and artillery, take the initiative to find the Tatar tribe, try a few battles on a small scale, it doesn't matter whether you win or lose, the experience gained from it is the most valuable, how to cooperate with artillery and sergeants to create the greatest results, must be slowly explored in actual combat, Only by the fire of war can a real strong soldier be trained. ”
"Yes."
****************************************************************
The winter snow finally came, and overnight, the capital was covered in silver, and every corner of the roof, the earth, and the branches was covered with a layer of white plain clothing, which was dazzlingly white and bitterly cold.
Snow is the most interesting scenery in the eyes of the rich, but it is the most terrible natural enemy in the eyes of the poor.
On the second day of the heavy snowfall, the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division and the Shuntianfu Yamen came with news that the Jingshi had a heavy snow last night, and more than 30 beggars were frozen to death under the city wall overnight, and their deaths were miserable.
In the early morning, the ministers who were dressed in mink furs and shivering with stoves in their arms were stunned when they heard the news, and there was a brief silence in the golden hall.
The stunned expressions were true or false, and the eyes of some officials and imperial historians rolled rapidly, this seemingly ordinary bad news, if you plan it carefully, it is not a good thing that can make a name for yourself.
The characteristics of the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty are infinitely magnified at this moment.
Directly admonishing offenders, inviting fame to buy straight, using their heads to break blood and even be covered with scars in exchange for the praise of the government and the opposition and the admiration of Shilin, in exchange for the most precious political capital, this is the most important thing that the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty have done the most and are the most proficient.
Of course, the Ming Emperor sitting high on the dragon chair has become the best target for the civil officials who love excitement to challenge the limit of survival, and has become the biggest boss for many players to brush up in groups...... You can increase your experience points.
After the early dynasty dispersed, an event that had been brewing slowly kicked off.
Hundreds of ministers gathered at Chengtianmen, and in less than half an hour, the ministers who were already kneeling in front of Chengtianmen were crying and wailing, and the scolding shook the sky.
This time they were not looking for trouble with Gonggong Liu, but scolded the emperor for his mediocrity and the incompetence of Shuntianfu, so that in the late Tang Dynasty, "Zhumen wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road" The miserable apocalyptic scene reappeared in our Ming Dynasty, which was the emperor's fault, but also the dereliction of duty of the government, and a symptom of the danger of the society.
The young Emperor Zhengde was once again shot while lying down.

Inside the Qianqing Palace.
The angry Zhu Houzhao smashed a delicate tribute celadon, the crisp cracking sound echoed in the hall, the broken porcelain pieces were like flying streams, scattered in all directions, and all the eunuchs and palace maids in the hall were so frightened that they knelt on the ground.
"Who am I recruiting? Who did you mess with? Why do you want me to sin against myself? Zhu Houzhao blushed and shouted.
"Your Majesty is angry." Qin Kan smiled bitterly at Zhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao said angrily: "I can't stop being angry!" What did I do wrong? In the early dynasty, when I heard the news that more than 30 beggars were frozen to death, I was still very sad at that time, and planned to order Shuntianfu to open a charity shed outside the city, and give porridge and clothes to help those living beggars and displaced people, this is what we should do, these civil officials are good, they don't ask the living beggars, and the first thing I do after the dispersal of the dynasty is to make an edict to blame myself, and blame all this tragedy on me, what kind of bastards are all over the palace! ”
Qin Kan said quietly: "Your Majesty, the more than thirty beggars who died are not human lives in the eyes of the ministers, but a rich political capital, an excellent opportunity to invite fame, that's all." ”
With a word, Zhu Houzhao's body was shocked, and then he sat down.
Liu Jin on the side said with a smile: "Your Majesty, this dynasty since the beginning of the Hongwu year, from the court to all levels of the government, there are regulations for the homeless beggars, every time there is a famine or cold, the government to open a good shed to give porridge relief is a must, even the thickness of the porridge has strict regulations, according to the law, the bamboo chopsticks in the porridge and the chopsticks do not fall, the party is qualified, when Emperor Taizu Gao started from the mountains and grasses, he is also an old man...... Ben has also suffered a lot, well aware of the difficulties of beggars and homeless, Your Majesty, the court has the affairs of the court, the government has the affairs of the government, the officials of the world perform their duties for the right way, last night froze to death more than 30 beggars, if you talk about its crimes, the Shuntian prefect is the culprit, what does it have to do with Your Majesty? The civil officials of the Manchu Dynasty are too ignorant of right and wrong. ”
Qin Kan nodded secretly when he heard this.
No matter how deep the grudge he has with Liu Jin, objectively speaking, Liu Jin's words are very pertinent.
This Ming internal minister, he is not only a power eunuch who only knows how to make money, but also has some insight into the government and people's hearts after all.
