Throughout the history of the Ming Dynasty, how to view Emperor Huizongcheng Zhu Yunjiao?
Hello everyone! I am a small editor old Xie chat about history, today to share a historical article with you, I hope you like!
In fact, I think it is a bit biased to knock Down Zhu Yunjiao with a stick, first of all, Zhu Yunjiao is Zhu Biao's real eldest son and not his sister-in-law, and the child who is zhu Biao's eldest son is called Zhu Xiongying, and from the name you can see what kind of hope this pins on Zhu Biao, but unfortunately there is no emperor's order, and it is gone at the age of eight. However, Zhu Biao also had a concubine Zhu Yunxi, who was one year younger than Zhu Yunxi, but Zhu Yunjiao snatched the imperial succession from the hands of the second uncle, the fourth uncle, and the younger brother with his excellent acting skills. Let Zhu Biao, who has been reading people for a lifetime, look away.
I think the first point of Zhu Biao's selection of Zhu Yunjiao is that Zhu Yunjiao's slogan during the campaign period is very much in line with Zhu Biao's appetite, everything my grandfather said is correct, and everything my father did is what I want to emulate, so that Zhu Biao mistakenly thought that Zhu Yunjiao would be a good grandson who reconciled wen and wu, the contradiction between the clan and the government, and adhered to his own political line. In the big logic, there is no problem, after all, as the founder of the system, especially during the implementation period after the creation of the system, there are great unstable factors, which require an executor with enforcement power, especially force deterrence, to implement, if Qin Shi Huang can continue to live for another 550 years, after two generations of digestion, there will certainly be no Liu Bang and Liu Che.
If Yang Jian can continue to live for another fifty years, after two generations of digestion, there will certainly be no Li Shimin and other things, Zu Long has made bold innovations in the system for the centralized system, brutally killing the privileged class of the nobility, making a structural design for the framework of the national social governance operating system, laying a solid foundation for the prosperity of the Western Han Dynasty, Emperor Wen of Sui created the imperial examination system, solved the flow of talents at the national group level, and broke the basis for the formation of the historical cycle due to the formation of talents in one fell swoop, and the century-old rule of the Yuan Dynasty The historical social governance operating system was destroyed, Zhu Yuanzhang rebuilt the governance system of the national society, and the central government formed a cabinet to check and balance the local government to form a social operation system with the yellow book and the baojia as the checks and balances.
And this system has just been tested by entrepreneurship, it can be seen that Zhu Di fully implemented his father's system design, and even after the Manchu Customs entry, this system continued to run for more than fifty years until after the spreading of dings into acres. The system set by Zhu Yuanzhang for the Ming Dynasty was destined to be a conservative defensive policy of the Ming Dynasty, except for some expansion in the Zhu Di period, other periods were basically conservative and contracted, Zhu Yunjiao could not achieve Zhu Di's achievements, because the literati were the supporters of the conservative policy, Zhu Yunjiao was surrounded by a bunch of literati, how could it be compared to Zhu Di, a martial guy. In fact, in the last years of Zhu Di's administration, the entire economic system of the Ming Dynasty was already tending to collapse, and if it were not for Zhu Zhanji's drastic reduction of the front and the reduction of expenditure, the Ming Dynasty would probably die three times.
Because of Zhu Yuanzhang's own vision problems, he could not focus on the most advanced industry and commerce, but increased efforts to inhibit the development of industry and commerce, so that taxes came from the most backward organization of agriculture, in order to achieve the flattening and uniformization of the entire social organization, and Zhu Yuanzhang indiscriminately issued banknotes, resulting in a sharp decline in banknote credit, forced the entire monetary system of the Ming Dynasty to degenerate back to precious metal currency, and at the same time, the Ming Dynasty itself minted a very limited number of copper coins, making the entire economy of the Ming Dynasty has been in a state of deflation, seriously inhibiting economic development. Obviously, Zhu Di's wanton conquest of the West, five voyages to the West, and the exhaustion of national strength made reform impossible, while Zhu Zhanji was too busy coping with the situation left by Zhu Di to carry out reform.
After three generations, reform is basically impossible. Therefore, at this point, the Ming Dynasty was doomed to perish. The merger of the North and South Lists and the reduction of taxes in Jiangnan were both in response to the demands of the gentry of Jiangnan, because Zhu Yuanzhang, out of various considerations, gave preferential treatment to Western Wu and the problems left over from Jia Rudao's public land, and imposed heavy taxes on parts of Jiangnan. Emperor Jianwen's actions were certainly maladministration, but they also reflected his social foundation. In fact, in the last years of Zhu Di's reign, the entire economic system of the Ming Dynasty was already tending to collapse, if it were not for Zhu Zhanji's drastic contraction of the front and the reduction of expenditures, the Ming Dynasty would probably die three times, because of Zhu Yuanzhang's own vision problems, so he could not focus on the most advanced industry and commerce, but increased efforts to suppress the development of industry and commerce, so that the tax came from the most backward organization of agriculture.
In order to achieve the flattening and uniformity of the entire social organization. Moreover, Zhu Yuanzhang indiscriminately issued banknotes, resulting in a sharp decline in banknote credit, which forced the entire monetary system of the Ming Dynasty to degenerate back to precious metal currencies, and the Ming Dynasty itself minted a very limited number of copper coins, which made the entire economy of the Ming Dynasty in a state of deflation and seriously inhibited economic development. Obviously, Zhu Di's wanton conquests and five voyages to the West drained the national strength, making reform impossible. Zhu Zhanji was too busy coping with the situation left by Zhu Di to carry out reforms. After three generations, reform is basically impossible. Therefore, at this point, the Ming Dynasty was doomed to perish.
