。 Is there a way to win the hearts of the people? In fact, these words are the words of a scholar, and it is not enough to teach you to count the two thousand years and see how many empires are unpopular but win the world...... Qiang Qin, Northern Wei, Northern Qi, Liaojin, Mengyuan, Manchu...... Almost half of the dynasties are not popular with the people, so the words of Confucianism cannot be heard, otherwise they must be killed, such as Huang Chengzhi and Jianwenjun.

In just a few years of his reign, Emperor Jianwen abolished the cruel punishments of Taizu, vigorously reduced the rent of the world's fields, and also disarmed and reduced expenditures to reduce the burden on the people. One of the most famous is Junjiang, Zhejiang, Tianfu. The heavy taxes in Jiangsu and Zhejiang have always been several times that of the world, and Emperor Jianwen thought it was unfair and reduced them. Such an emperor will naturally be sincerely supported and loved by his subjects, especially after the severe punishment of the Taizu Dynasty, the civil officials and the common people call him a rare benevolent monarch, and even compare him with Song Renzong......

But a few families were happy and a few were sad, but he offended the nobles and the vassal kings, and these two controlled the military power of the Ming Dynasty......

The military generals hated him for blindly favoring the civil officials, listening to the advice of the Confucian scholars, and desperately improving the status of the civil and official groups, but disarming and suppressing the military people, causing the status of the founding fathers and grandchildren to plummet. This is mainly brought about by Fang Xiaoru's restructuring of the imperial court. First of all, he raised the six Shangshu from the second rank to the first grade, and added a waiter position between the Shangshu and the waiter, which greatly improved the status of the six Shangshu. Subsequently, the establishment and status of the State Supervisor, the Hanlin Yuan, and the Zhan Shifu were greatly improved. The purpose of this was to strengthen the Confucian education of the preparatory officials and to improve the ...... of the Hanlin scholars It was their own position in the decision-making of the imperial court, as well as the strengthening of the education and training of the heirs of the empire, that made future emperors more obedient to the words of civil officials.

There were also various reforms to the imperial court institutions, to put it bluntly, to strengthen the rule of civil officials in order to weaken the power of the generals and vassal kings. This made the generals complain, and in the future confrontation with King Yan, the imperial army did not contribute to the work, burying a serious hidden danger.

Of course, it's nothing to provoke the generals alone, after all, the unruly generals of the Ming Dynasty were all killed by Zhu Yuanzhang, and the rest of Geng Bingwen, Song Zhong and others are all wretched people who dare not speak out, let alone make him the emperor's rebellion.

But at the same time, the young emperor and his nerdy masters offended the vassal king again......

Emperor Taizu is the hero, but also the father, the palms of the sons are meat, naturally want to let each child live well, he sealed the nine emperors at the border, ordered them to train the army and prepare the border, and sealed more than a dozen children all over the country, he said to Yun Kang before his death: "I give the responsibility of the royal foreign insult to the kings, the dust does not move, let you be a peaceful day." ”

Yun Kang had a different taste in his heart, and answered: "The invasion of the enemy country will be dealt with by the kings; If the kings have different intentions, who will deal with them? ”

Taizu was silent for a long time before asking, "What do you think?" ”

"Win their hearts with virtue and restrict their actions with courtesy. if it is invalid, cut off his possessions; If it is invalid again, it will be resealed elsewhere. In this way, if you don't know how to repent, you have no choice but to raise an army to fight. Yun Kang's answer was obviously thought of a long time ago, and it was even more obvious that when he was the prince, he was already full of wariness of those tough uncles, and he had a plan for a long plate.

It's a pity that it is the way to say, but it is reckless to put it into practice, and it is wrong to add mistakes, and give away the great rivers and mountains to others......

Qitai Huang Cheng is a first-class loyal minister, but he lacks strategy and no strategy, and he is unable to take on the important task of cutting the feudal domain that is related to the country, especially Huang Cheng, who is definitely Zhu Di's Tianzi No. 1 hero, if he didn't die of loyalty, he would definitely be Zhu Di's gold medal undercover...... In the thirty-first year of Hongwu, Emperor Taizu died, and Qi and Huang drafted an edict to order the kings not to go to Beijing to mourn, and the officials set up by the kingdom listened to the imperial court

The first part of the order is good to say, the kings are unruly and unruly, and they are all elders, and they do not obey the young master, in case someone covets the throne and rises up to rebel, it is very dangerous. But to control the officials of the kingdom, it is obviously to guard against the kings, of course, it will cause great disgust and vigilance, telling them that I am going to deal with you before I can do it, first make a lot of complaints, Jianwen came up with a stupid trick as soon as he came up......

Now that the intention of dealing with the kings has been clear, Emperor Jianwen sat on the throne and ordered Qi Tai Huang Cheng to secretly discuss the steps to cut the domain. At that time, among the nine kings of Zhenbian who held the military power, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, looked wonderful, wise and brave, and in the cruel battle with Mongolia, he grew into the strongest military general of the Ming Dynasty.

Qi Tai thought that if the king of Yan was eliminated, the dragons would be leaderless and not to be afraid, and advocated taking the king of Yan first, but Huang Cheng disagreed, he said that the king of Yan was too strong, and he must be carefully arranged, and he would make a fool of himself before making a move. And the kings of Zhou, Qi, Xiang, Dai, and Min had illegal behaviors when they were Taizu, and they were famous. Now you should first ask King Zhou, a fellow mother of King Yan, to cut off King Yan's hands and feet......

As soon as the opinions of the two people came out, it can be seen that Qi Tai is still stronger than Huang Cheng, at least he knows that he 'shoots a man first and shoots a horse first, and captures a thief first and captures the king first. At that time, Emperor Jianwen was the heir of Emperor Taizu, who was a great treasure and the orthodoxy of the country. If the thunder method is added to King Yan as soon as he comes up, Zhu Di will have no power to fight back at all, on the contrary, it will be a great opportunity for the new monarch to stand mighty.

And Huang Cheng's set of words is good, in fact, it is to pick up soft persimmons first and test King Yan's reaction. If King Yan is a weak person, he will naturally be scared obediently, but everyone knows that Zhu Di is a peerless powerhouse who came out of the vast desert and the sea of corpses and blood, this kind of person will be scared? Only two hundred and five like Huang Cheng would believe it......

It's a pity that when Qitai and Huang Cheng disagreed, Emperor Jianwen would listen to the latter, probably because the IQ was close to the resonance was stronger.

So Emperor Jianwen succeeded to the throne less than a month ago, so he sent people to arrest the five emperors to the capital, and he did not see the mercy when he treated his subjects. But those trumped-up charges were not enough to convict the vassal king, and Emperor Jianwen wanted to let his five uncles go, but under the efforts of Qi and Huang, the five kings were still punished in the end. At this time, tragedy happened, Zhu Bai, the king of Xiang, was self-evident in the interrogation, and burned to death in the palace in anger, and the world shook Zhu Di to completely make up his mind and rebel in advance

The reason why it is said to be early is because Zhu Di has long had the intention of rebellion under the instigation of the monk and military master Daoyan. Recruit geniuses, secretly build weapons, and secretly train soldiers, but Zhu Di has never made up his mind before. One is that as a prince, he is already above 10,000 people under one person, and if the rebellion fails, there is only one way to die. After witnessing the fate of his brothers, this one became not a problem, because he knew very well that the next unlucky one would be himself.

Another concern is that his three sons are still stranded in Beijing, and once they rebel, the three will inevitably be executed. For this reason, he wrote to complain of illness and asked for the return of the three. At this time, the opinions of Qi and Huang conflicted again, Qi Tai advocated taking the three as hostages, and Huang Cheng thought that it was better to return them, dispel the doubts of King Yan, and wait for the court to arrange properly, and then send troops to raid and capture them in one fell swoop

There is no more appropriate word to describe Brother Huang than 'idiot'. At that time, his brother had already changed all the political envoys and commanders of Beiping where King Yan's fief was located. On the grounds of sending troops to Shanhaiguan, he transferred half of King Yan's elite soldiers and took over his military power in disguise. In the context of the five brothers being killed one after another, these saber-rattling arrangements, King Yan can also understand the intentions of the court with his toes? And Huang Cheng actually thought that by returning King Yan, he could hide King Yan, it was just a cover-up and a thief, stupid You have already killed other people's brothers, and you have already placed others under residential surveillance, and you still expect to paralyze others? If he wasn't bought by Zhu Di, he would be an idiot. And history has proven that Huang Cheng is a loyal minister, so he is a pure idiot

As mentioned earlier, when Qi and Huang disagreed, Emperor Jianwen always listened to the latter, so he let his cousin go. But this kind of opinion can also be listened to, and I have to say that there is a common language between idiots and idiots.

When the three kings returned to Beiping, King Yan was overjoyed, and even shouted, "God help me, and since then he has no scruples and begins to plot rebellion."

At this time, the disparity in strength between the two sides is huge, like an ant to an elephant. Jianwen's side is the millions of troops of the imperial court and the human and financial resources of all provinces across the country, and when Zhu Di raised his army, he only had 800 guards of his descendants, and only occupied one city in Beiping, and the grain, grass, weapons, and finances were all supported by this lonely city. In this case, Jianwen can lose the country, and he really wants to make Emperor Taizu so angry that he crawls out of the filial piety tomb.

It is no exaggeration to say that Zhu Di can take the world with one city, and his own strength is not the main reason, but it is too stupid to rely on his opponent

For example, before Zhu Di was ready to rebel, there were ministers in Beiping who reported to the imperial court, so Jianwen decided to do it to his uncle, at that time Beiping had heavy troops in the imperial court, and the generals were also loyal, and Zhu Di only had 800 guards in the palace. Who knew that overnight, Beiping was taken by Zhu Di...... The reason turned out to be that in Jianwen's secret decree, there was no mention of arresting Zhu Di, only saying that his subordinates were arrested, which made the generals besieging the palace overwhelmed and sacrificed in vain, and all the troops surrendered to Zhu Di......

Another example is Geng Bingwen, who was fighting the rebellion at the beginning, was old-fashioned, saw through Zhu Di's weakness, and was ready to consume him to death, but Huang Cheng thought that he was unfavorable in battle and was useless in old age, so he asked Jianwen to replace Li Jinglong, who was young and vigorous and the leader in the art of war...... Emperor Jianwen asked so much, he must know the allusion of talking about the army on paper, Geng Bingwen was the Lian Po left by Emperor Taizu to guard the country, and Li Jinglong was the second ancestor Zhao Kuo, and the result was the same as the Battle of Changping, 500,000 officers and soldiers were defeated by 30,000 Yan troops.
