Can the "Three Dynasties" enjoy the country for 276 years?
What is the concept of 276 years? In the 268th year of the Qing Dynasty (counting the establishment of national power), the 210th year of the Western Han Dynasty, and the 195th year of the Eastern Han Dynasty, of the several great unified and powerful dynasties recognized in Chinese history, only the Tang Dynasty was longer than the Ming Dynasty in 288 years.
Some people here may explain that the government is based on a highly centralized central government and a relatively mature political system.
Of course, this is not wrong, but these things did not appear in the Ming Dynasty out of thin air, and someone had to formulate them.
Although most of this is based on the essence of history, how can it not be an ability to knead together these essences that are beneficial to rule?
This is not to say that the merits of a certain emperor of the Ming Dynasty, no matter how strong a person's ability is, there will always be shortcomings, which was done by many famous people in the early Ming Dynasty.
A prosperous scene of the Ming Dynasty
This also leads to the conclusion that the Ming Dynasty may not have the heroes of other dynasties who single-handedly turn the tide, but this is only possible, after all, everyone's views are different, at least I do not agree.
On the contrary, I think that the Ming Dynasty was a dynasty with bright stars, and it was precisely because there were too many celebrities and good generals, so when they were put together, they were not higher than a high.
Who wasn't afraid of this iron horse at the time?
Ming Dynasty celebrities and good generals
At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang listened to Liu Ji's suggestion and created a capital of the Fifth Army, that is, the highest military institution in the country.
Don't look at Liu Ji as a scribe, he knows Zhu Yuanzhang very well, he knows very well that Zhu Yuanzhang is afraid of civilian officials interfering in the military, so he simply proposed the division of civil and military affairs, and the result was very smoothly passed by Zhu Yuanzhang.
From this point, it can be seen that the Ming Dynasty and other dynasties had the same problem, the discord between culture and martial arts. The internal friction of the wen and the military also made the Ming Dynasty give people a feeling that there were neither any famous scholars nor good generals.
Zhu Yuanzhang
In fact, as long as everyone thinks about it carefully, are there few famous people and good generals in the Ming Dynasty?
We will not talk about the founding fathers, each of them is a top figure in Chinese history, even the Jianwen Dynasty, which was most complained about by later generations, is not really as netizens said that zhu Yuanzhang was killed.
The question we can all think of, zhu Yuanzhang, an emperor like zhu yuanzhang, would not think of it?
Zhu Di's military talent is outstanding, there are few defeats in his life, and the most tragic two occurred in the Battle of Jingnan, Jinan Tiexuan tactics were properly used, without fear of this Yan King, Zhu Di was almost gone in this battle, you must know that Tie Xuan is a civilian official, it can be described as both literary and martial, but it is a pity.
Iron Hyun
In the Battle of Baigou River before the Battle of Jinan, Zhu Di first tasted defeat, the opponent's name was Qu Neng, this person was brave and fierce, personally led the warriors to take the lead in the vanguard of Zhu Di, killing Zhu Di's position was in chaos, but the heavens were not beautiful, plus Li Jinglong's straw bag had the later Battle of Jinan.
The above two believe that many friends are not familiar with it, but there are many such figures in the Jianwen Dynasty, after all, many of the second generation of the founding generals are still there, but Jianwen favors Li Jinglong.
In terms of scribes, there are not a few loyal and righteous people with outstanding abilities like Fang Xiaoru. Emperor Jianwen didn't say it, really dish.
Yongle dynasty does not need to say much, the prosperity of the world is a group of mediocre people can create?
Fang Xiaoru
And even when the Ming Dynasty is about to die, there are still countless fierce people, and these national heroes such as Qi Jiguang, Li Rusong, and Deng Zilong are not good generals?
Those celebrities who served in the imperial court are not to say, the Ming Dynasty really has few civilian officials who can discuss in depth, a deep breath is a breath of cool air, Hai Rui is one.
And thinkers like Wang Shouren and Wang Fuzhi are worse than Dong Zhongshu and Zhu Xi? The answer is clearly no.

Look at the Emperor
After talking about the famous scholars of the Ming Dynasty, let's look at the emperors, the emperors of the Ming Dynasty are indeed in addition to Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di, more or less have some problems, what decades have not been in the dynasty, carpenters, Taoists and so on.
But the emperor is also a person, in addition to work will also have their own interests and hobbies, but these emperors' interests and hobbies have been amplified, whose masterpiece does not need me to say more.
In general, in the Ming Dynasty, I personally think there is only one person who can be counted as a dim lord, Zhu Qizhen. There is really nothing to say about Zhu Qizhen, and he is indeed a dimwit.
Zhu Qi Town
Wanli Emperor Zhu Yijun did not go to the dynasty is indeed not like words, but it does not mean that he lost his grasp of the Ming Dynasty, but in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, when the civil officials had a lot of right to speak, Zhu Yijun could also launch three major marches, which shows that his means are not simple.
PS: Although Zhu Yuanzhang did not allow businessmen to be officials, but businessmen can train spokesmen to be officials, many important positions in the imperial court in the middle and late Ming Dynasty are these people, and it is obvious that Zhu Yijun is able to exclude public opinions in such things as fighting wars that are not in their interests.
Of course, due to Zhu Yijun's inaction, although he himself can still play Daming, the latter few are not good, basically by the major forces (Donglin Party, Castration Party), if you want to make a difference, there is no chance, so it is not unreasonable that the Ming Dynasty actually died in Wanli.
As for the emperors of the early Ming Dynasty, I personally think that they are no worse than those Ming emperors in other dynasties, everyone is a human being, and who has nothing wrong with them, that is, Liu Che and Li Shimin also have places to criticize.
Wanli Emperor
Why do you always feel that the Ming Dynasty has no sense of existence?
On the contrary, if you often pay attention to historical dynamics, friends may find that "Ming powder" may still be the most, which may be the reason for such bold words as "no land, no indemnity, no peace", "the son of heaven guards the country's gate, and the king dies in the society".
At least Daming gave people the feeling of being tough from beginning to end, Gang Dayuan, Gang Annan, Gang Wuguo, Gang Jurchen, and boys should be like this.
However, it is also true that some friends' feelings about the Ming Dynasty stay on the intuitive feelings brought by the film and television dramas such as "Gonggong", East Factory, West Factory, Embroidered Spring Knife Flying Fish Suit, and it cannot be said that they are wrong, these are indeed problems in the Ming Dynasty, and it is precisely because of the existence of these factors that friends who do not understand the history of the Ming Dynasty feel that the Ming Dynasty is too dark.

epilogue
The "three nothings" of the Ming Dynasty are just a family's words, people talk about their personal feelings, everyone does not need to be so true, more true but it seems that what he said is reasonable, history is there, we need to be like those big names in the early Ming Dynasty, take history as a mirror, understand more things, rather than go and who has expressed their personal opinions after raising the bar, the ancients left us too much, those history books can not write many pages of the country will not understand.
