My Daming New Empire

Even in the future of the 21st century, true equality remains a distant dream.

Also, in many so-called dictatorships, people's lives are much better than in "free, democratic" countries.

In this day and age, pursuing equality will only make one's own country into a mess.

Therefore, Zhu Zhanji also let the three religions and the truth religion together to come up with a class theory.

There must be classes in society, so that the upper and lower can find their own position.

The important thing is not to block the channels between different classes, so that the people at the bottom can see that hope can come up, and the incompetent upper class can also go down.

In the past, Zhu Jianshen was always trapped in the situation. He never got out of the matter and correctly confirmed the facts from the perspective of a bystander.

In other words, he has never really felt the manifestation of this power from the overall situation.

However, during this voyage of tens of thousands of miles, I saw these soldiers who had left their homes for tens of thousands of miles in Dongzhou and Xizhou. Although they had taken root tens of thousands of miles away, they still respected Ying Tianfu's majesty. Out of the power of the system.

Of course, Zhu Jianshen was not negligent. In addition to the system, there is also the influence of culture.

Because of the righteousness of the Confucian culture of heaven, earth, monarch, relatives and teachers, everyone is maintaining their own cultural traditions, and no one is allowed to destroy them.

When he first arrived in Xizhou, he was a little timid to directly face the rapidly expanding Han Palace, but now, he is not afraid at all.

"Your Highness, in His Majesty's New Year's speech, there are a few key parts, you need to ponder them carefully. These words are related to the changes in Ming Dynasty in the coming year, and you must be aware of them."

As the heir of Jiangshan, Zhu Jianshen is of course no stranger to some sensitive words.Many words that sound ordinary to ordinary people actually hide complex relationships and the determination of the upper class behind them.

"Let the clerks sort out these first, and I'll look at them later. Today's New Year's Eve, I will go to the military guards to inspect first, bring silver coins, and go to the homes of ordinary soldiers today to have a look, and have fun with the people."

Hearing Zhu Jianshen's words, Peng Shi laughed.In Yingtian Mansion before, Taisun still seemed out of touch, but this two-year tour made him more mature.

In Hanzhou City, Zhu Jianzhu also listened to Zhu Zhanji's speech in front of the radio, and then fell into deep thought.

As a prince who wanted to wrestle with the imperial court, since Xie Yun came to Xizhou, he felt that the imperial court's ropes to Hanwangfu and Jinwangfu were getting tighter and tighter.

But he has nothing to do, no matter in terms of righteousness, reason, or strength, he has no power to fight back.

What worries him even more is that even his own personal guards, although they are trustworthy for working for him now, may not be trustworthy when the Han Palace stands on the opposite side of the imperial court.

Now radio has become the favorite program of ordinary people in Xizhou. In major cities, the best-selling products are expensive radios.

Every day when there is nothing to do, everyone has a radio in their arms, listening to the radio broadcasting the policies of the imperial court, listening to the customs and customs of various places, and listening to various dramas.

Although most ordinary people don't pay attention to the imperial court's policies, the uninterrupted broadcasting every day allows ordinary people to understand the imperial court's attitude on various major issues.

At this time, if their Han Palace wanted to confront the imperial court, they would not get the support of ordinary people at all.

Everyone knows that His Majesty the Emperor is thinking of every common people, and he is doing his best to make the common people of Ming Dynasty rich.

Even if there is some injustice, it is the officials below who bully others.

In today's broadcast, His Majesty Jin Kou Yu said that in the Ming Dynasty, the agricultural tax will be reduced, the burden on the people will be reduced, and the people will be allowed to exchange money for labor relief.

Moreover, the imperial court does not allow the sharing of labor quotas. Once verified, the relevant officials will be dismissed and demoted.

And some infrastructure construction that requires the use of labor is now transferred to the Ministry of Industry Engineering, and the engineering corps of the Ministry of National Defense is responsible for the construction.

In this way, if the Han Palace wants to use labor to work for the Han Palace again this year, it will cost money.

Thinking of this, he can't wait to tear down those signal towers that can receive signals.

In the past, the Palace of the King of Han could let ordinary people do some work at will without paying money.Now it is not possible to conscript labor at will, and in the future the expenditure of the Han Palace will be much higher.

It's all the fault of these broadcasts, so that the common people can directly know the policy of the imperial court, how can we deceive them in the future?

Everything is not going well...

More importantly, the hearts of the people are not on the side of King Han's Mansion at all. He just brought over several other palaces, but they don't have soldiers in their hands, so how big a storm can arise!

"Han Changshi, the grandson has been at the Golden City for the past few days, what are you doing?"

"My lord, I don't dare to send these messages through the telegraph office. I can only know that he has been in the army recently through the news on Xizhou Daily.... The visitor is not kind!"

"I don't believe that the court really dared to send troops if our Han Palace didn't fight against us. The grandson is probably also putting pressure on us. After fifteen days, he came to Hanzhou City. I have to ask him carefully. What do you want to do!"

Having said that, Han Cong could already see that he was a bit aggressive.

Sighing inwardly, Han Cong was also thinking about his future.From the imperial court's wireless telegram and Guangbo spread to Xizhou, the original Han Palace could rely on the high sky and the emperor's distance to form a school of its own in Xizhou.

But now even the people of Xizhou can hear the news from Zhongzhou every day. The ordinary people and the palace can know at the same time what policies the imperial court has. How can they rely on deception to lure the people?

So from that time on, Hanwang Mansion has lost its original prestige.

If they conform to the imperial court, they can still have a way to survive, and they still want to be as high as before, it will not work.

Han Cong carefully thought about what he had done these years. Although he had made many plans for the Han Palace, he himself had never done anything wrong.

If the prince still can't see the situation clearly, he can only turn against him.

Anyway, he has accumulated a lot of money over the years, whether it is returning to Central Continent, or buying a large manor in Nanyang, and living a leisurely life behind closed doors, there is no pressure on him.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling a little excited.

Chapter 49 Trends

Officials in the Ming Dynasty were divided into government officials and national officials. Although the two official systems overlapped each other, they became distinct after reaching the upper level.

In addition to these officials, there is a group of special officials in Ming Dynasty, who have the functions of government officials and state officials, that is, Wang Fuchang Shisi.

They are in charge of the government orders of the palace, assisting each other in planning, and taking charge of the affairs of the palace.All invitations for names, seals, marriages, favors and thanks, tributes, etc., are all recorded by the chief history of the palace. If the vassal king is at fault, ask the long history.

However, although they have both the functions of government officials and state officials, because the scope of power they are responsible for is relatively narrow, these people are in an awkward position no matter whether they are government officials or state officials.

And most of them are also composed of some unwilling officials, belonging to the marginal figures at the official level.

Especially in today's Ming Dynasty, all the palaces are feudal overseas, and working in the palace means that they are far away from the center of power.

And the room for them to rise is limited. Once many people enter the palace, it will be difficult for them to get out of this system in their lifetime.

So they quickly formed an interest group with the palace, and tied their own interests tightly with the palace.

Han Cong is such an official. Since he was assigned to the Chief History Department of the Palace, he has given up the idea of ​​continuing to develop in his official career.

The whole family came to Xizhou from Central Continent. From a Dian Bo of the ninth rank to a Zuo Changshi of the fifth rank all the time, in addition to always adhering to the duties of an official, he also tied his own interests with the Han Palace.

However, as a smart person, he is very clear that the current actions of the Han Palace have violated the court's taboo in many places.

Seeing that Hanwang Mansion is going to be unlucky, it is human nature that he does not want to sink with Hanwang Mansion.
