Chapter 111: Chongzhen's Problem
And now on the other side, for Chongzhen.
Something is clearly going on.
That's where everything that happened before was too much in full swing.
So much so that the whole country began to rush forward, and the flames of the whole country gradually spread, which led to his own foundation.
Started unsteady.
This is a terrible thing, and this thing is also predictable.
And some of the most clearly foreseeable things, that is.
The entire country has almost completely lost the ruling power at the grassroots level.
Speaking of it, some people may not believe it, but those peasants have already begun to resist, and many troops have even joined them.
How could there be a loss of grassroots dominance?
Shouldn't the emperor's army be completely pacified wherever it goes?
of course not.
However, one thing that is undeniable is that farmers actually occupy the vast majority, when they know, or start to appeal for their own interests.
In fact, this is a more dangerous signal.
Whether it is an official Juren or a scholar, they will subconsciously maintain the emperor's rule, and then make themselves fatter and fatter under the framework of the rule.
But the peasants are different, they don't have the awareness of maintaining the framework, so that they kill the officials, distribute the grain, and distribute the land.
What should they do next?
They were lost.
There is a very fatal thing in this era, that is, the literacy rate is too low, too low.
There is even an announcement posted on the top of the city. Even if it is at the foot of the emperor, there are still many people who don't know it. For this, someone still has to go to the gate of the city, read the announcement, and then read it to others.
This is the norm in classical society.
There are really very few people who can read, and even literacy is a pretty good skill that can survive.
So the problem came at this time. A large group of farmers who didn't know what was going on overturned the people who were oppressed above them.
So they started farming, and then began to wait for His Majesty's order.
Then.
How should they distinguish whether it is the emperor's order?
Forging private seals is a serious crime, that's for sure.
But now for those scholars, those who are of a higher class, the knife has been chopped on their heads.
If they don't get up, wouldn't they still be dead?
They are all dead, so why can't they get some yellow cloth, get some seals, and go to those places.
Take those farmers for your own use?
When the time comes, your emperor will send someone over to beat you up as a bandit. Will the peasants know the truth?
I don't know, what they know is just what the people above them deliberately let them know.
This is a very classic method of rebellion in ancient times.
In ancient times, the soldiers were all paid by the emperor. Why did the soldiers respond after the general rebelled?
That's because what the soldiers heard in their ears was that the emperor was dead, or imprisoned by traitors. You thought they were rebelling, but they thought they were serving the king.
Thinking about it this way, does everything make sense?
It is good that the emperor has great power, but there are more vested interests!
Some people have a good conscience, but a good conscience, what will it look like under the current social situation?
This is also hard to say.
So, now, Chongzhen really felt the feeling of sitting directly on top of the powder keg.
This is the feeling of an explosion with a light touch.
His position is already unstable, it can even be said that it is precarious.
How to proceed to the next step is the bigger question.
It's like many people killed a person with a moment of bloody courage, but everything after the murder, in his head, was all blank.
The blood in the Forbidden City has not yet been drained.
The corpses hanging on the top of the city and the piles of silver are dazzling.
This is a good thing, but not a good thing either.
Because they died.
"The world, the land, how can I calm down the whole country? Training, although I am already training a new army, but what should I do if I am far away from the water and can't solve the near fire? What should I do?"
Chongzhen frowned constantly.
Think about the future of this country in the room.
He really didn't know what to do.
Involuntarily, I thought of Qin Ji.
Yes, the immortal must have a solution, but isn't it bad to bother the immortal?
And the immortal did have contact with the queen before, and said a few words to him.
But will the immortal reply later?
Will it make the immortal feel a little disturbed?
Chongzhen was a little uncertain.
But now, for the future of the empire, he had to do so.
"Luo Yang Xing!"
Chongzhen spoke solemnly.
"The minister is here."
In the past few days, Luo Yangxing's bloody smell was really strong.
Most of the people were applauding, almost calling him Master Qingtian.
It's okay to feel like this, but Luo Yangxing also knows that he is not this kind of material.
"Take out those treasures."
"I understand."
Luo Yangxing nodded.
Many porcelains were placed in front of Chongzhen.
The most dazzling among them is undoubtedly a five-colored hundred deer statue, which is quite beautiful, bright in color and bright.
"Sacrificed to the immortal!"
Chongzhen still knew, after all, he wanted to ask the question, so no matter whether these things are precious or not, it is always a thought.
And Qin Ji over there raised his eyebrows.
I didn't expect someone to reward me again.
At first glance, it was still Chongzhen.
Can't help but laugh.
"What? This is a house raid, and some good things have been copied? So give me some?"
Qin Ji's speech was naturally flat and natural.
But from Chongzhen's point of view, this is a little flattered.
"Immortal! If the immortal likes it, I still have it here."
"That's enough, that's all, there's nothing to be courteous about, it's either rape or robbery, come on, what happened over there?"
Qin Ji spoke like this.
He didn't dare to say that everything could be solved, but if he made some suggestions, there shouldn't be any problem.
"Immortals really are really clever, nothing can escape your eyes, that's it."
Chongzhen spoke out about the most serious problem of the Ming Dynasty.
Qin Ji looked at the words above, and the biggest problem now was the possibility of a split.
Not everyone is faithful, and that's a huge problem.
Qin Ji knocked on the table.
After thinking for a while, I suddenly thought of something.
Perhaps, this thing is just right for the current Ming Dynasty.
