Speaking of Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, people familiar with Ming history will think that it is not from herding cattle to finally becoming an emperor! Yes, it is him, his life is legendary, starting from scratch has nothing to change himself through his own hard work, and finally ascend to the throne! He made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty and even to later generations, such as The abolition of the system of prime ministers for thousands of years in the thirteenth year of Hongwu, and the establishment of the cabinet in the Chengzu period became the beginning of the embryonic of capitalism. I expelled Hu Captive to restore China, the final Song Dynasty has not been able to recover the Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures in his hands for hundreds of years, his merits can be compared with the Qin Emperor Han Wu, but a mistake made when he was in politics laid the groundwork for the Ming Dynasty later, and then let Xiaobian get to know it with everyone!
?? In the early years of Hongwu' reign, after the Great Seal of Meritorious Servants, for the sake of the Zhu family's plan, he was worried that these martial generals might turn against him, so he thought of an idea to divide the feudal kings. It is reasonable to explain that there are examples of the Western Han Dynasty and the Western Jin Dynasty, so why should he still do it? In fact, all this is under his control, first of all, he will restrain these clan kings from making changes in the ancestral training of the Emperor Ming, and properly assist the central government, and the Great Ming's jiangshan needs these children and grandchildren to cherish. Second, he was the three kings of Hongwu who were mainly divided in the three years, the old second Qin king was divided into Xi'an, the old third Jin king was divided into Taiyuan, and the old fourth Yan king Zhu Di was divided into Beiping. If the second elder has a change, the third and fourth elders will certainly not agree, the third elder will not agree, the second and fourth elders will not agree, and the mutual restraint between these clan kings plays a very good role, Zhu Yuanzhang is still the old man who plots the country, but unfortunately people are not as good as heaven. In the end, the second and third elders all died in front of Zhu Yuanzhang, and no one could restrain Zhu Di behind him, so four years after Zhu Yuanzhang's death, Zhu Di launched the Battle of Jingnan to force the Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunjiao to abdicate, and then established himself as emperor and changed his era name to Yongle.
?? At that time, some people actually saw that there would be an accident in the division of the seal very early, that person was a small official in Shanxi, and Zhu Yuanzhang told him that it was easy to get things out of the division, such as the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms in the Western Han Dynasty and the rebellion of the Eight Kings of the Western Jin Dynasty. If the kings of the various clans have an army in their hands and hold a lot of power, it is inevitable that there will be a usurpation of the throne by the king of the clan, which is not uncommon in history. But do you know that when Zhu Yuanzhang saw this performance, he was angry! The good boy dared to alienate himself, so he sent Jinyi guards to arrest him from his hometown to Nanjing and shoot him to death. Hu Weiyong saw that the emperor was angry, so he persuaded the emperor, and the emperor imprisoned Ye Boju in heavenly prison, and died in prison shortly after.
?? We modern people actually say that this little official is very right, and the situation behind him is not all mentioned by him, but do you know that when he was on the throne, those clan kings had not yet taken the clan. When things touched his old Zhu family, his old man was confused! Because of this policy of kings, it can be said that at the end of the Ming Dynasty, there were kings everywhere. Zhu Yuanzhang said that the policy of basic salary and honesty is that it is better to say that it is for the common people, in fact, most of them are full of private pockets among these princes, and some princes do not do the right thing every year, so that there are so many salaries that officials can receive, so that the corruption and bribery of officials in the middle and late Ming Dynasty are not uncommon, and the trend of tail failure has been formed.
If the Ming Dynasty followed the Qin Dynasty to engage in the county system, the fate of those princes in the last years of the Ming Dynasty would not be so tragic, most of the princes in the north in the last years died at the hands of the peasant army, and the famous Fu Wang was boiled alive by Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang, which shows how much the common people hated the Ming Dynasty princes at that time. The princes of the Ming Dynasty have gone through more than two hundred years, and there are so many benefits to be gained by being born not to do things, where will they take care of the ordinary people, all of this must be rooted in the system of sub-sealing implemented by Zhu Yuanzhang, and the consequences of not doing anything are only self-destruction!
