Regarding the conflict between Yang Feng and his brothers, King Jin and King Qi...

Including him beating his seventh brother stupidly.

Zhu Zhi didn't care at all.

Half-mother...

That's not a brother!

To be precise, they are all the sons of bad women!

In an imperial family like this, half-mothers can basically be enemies. Zhu Zhi's mother has long since disappeared, and he is the only one he really depends on for life.

little princess.

All the other so-called brothers and sisters are just the sons of bad women in his heart. For a concubine like him who is a low-level concubine, he would not look at the sons of legitimate concubines or beloved concubines.

To the eye, his feelings for these people are simply negative. In fact, even he is dissatisfied with Zhu Di, who was too kind to the Mongolian Jurchens, and because he already knew the future from the little princess, he has always had a deep affection for these tribes.

hostility.

It was under his threat that Aru Timur was arrested by his fourth brother.

Aru Timur did not defect.

He did have this thought, but it was just a thought.

At most, I'm a little bit dissatisfied.

Zhu Di also knew that the root cause was that he had been left in Huining for too long. Those who were originally loyal to him were uneasy, so he wanted to defend himself. Historically, he actually did not want to arrest him. It was his uncle who forced him to arrest him.

.

In order to prevent him from rebelling, Xu Huizu created the Alu Timur case and forced him to cut off his wings.

But now that his elder brother-in-law is away, it is his fifteenth brother who is forcing him.

Zhu Zhi's Liao vassal guards were already preparing to raid Alu Timur. If Zhu Di did not arrest him, then he, the real guarding vassal king of Liaodong, would do it for his fourth brother. After all, it was under his jurisdiction, so Zhu Di had no choice but to

Arrest people, because Zhu Zhi is also dissatisfied with Zhu Di because of this incident. This is Zhu Di, who is the brother with whom he has the closest relationship.

Not to mention the others.

but……

He had to hold his nephew's thigh.

For a vassal king like him who has no ambitions and poses no threat to Zhu Yunxi, the most important thing is to show his loyalty to the future emperor.

This is the most important.

The easiest way to show loyalty is of course to let Zhu Yunxi see that he and his brothers, King Yan and King Jin, are not of the same mind. Yang Feng is the open enemy of King Jin and injured King Qi. In other words, these powerful

The enemy of the vassal king, and him remaining friendly with Yang Feng was tantamount to telling Zhu Yunxi that he was not in the same group as these brothers...

My dear nephew, you know me.

I am not the same group as those who want to steal your throne.

I obey you.

Look, I've become good friends with your eagle dog.

Well, Yang Feng has been regarded as Zhu Yunxi's eagle dog.

After all, he had already solved a vassal king that Zhu Yunxi needed to be wary of.

Who is happiest when King Qi becomes a fool?

princess……

Well, she ranks first.

But the second ranked one has to be Zhu Yunxi.

If Yang Feng could beat his uncles into fools in this way, then Zhu Yunxi would not need to worry about his uncles' resistance after he succeeded to the throne.

What a fool!

It is also reasonable for him to reduce the vassal status.

A fool is obviously unable to fulfill his duties as a vassal king. In this case, of course there is no need to let them continue to cheat in the fiefdom, and they are all taken back to the capital to work as an apartment, and he provides care for his uncles in their old age. Therefore, there are still some rumors among the people that Yang Feng beat Fool Qi.

The king was under the instruction of the emperor's grandson. After all, this was very beneficial to the emperor's grandson.

So Yang Feng naturally became the emperor's eagle dog.

There are many people who believe this statement.

It is not ruled out that Zhu Zhi also believes it.

He is far away from here, and the only things that can be transmitted are fragmentary rumors.

As for Yang Feng, he actually came to Guangning to see his adopted daughters...

There are many adopted daughters here.

The total number of people is as high as 2,500, but currently they are all at the level of young children. Even the oldest one is only thirteen. There are Jurchens, Goryeo, Japanese and even Mongolians among them. In short, it is a mess.

Some of them were bought by green slaves.

Even when the Ming army was raiding various ministries, it was inevitable that they would have a hard time and often exterminate families. The green slaves negotiated with the Ming army generals and sold the little girls they didn't want to her. Then these were also counted as Yang Feng.

Yang Feng's adopted daughters, so the total number of Yang Feng's adopted daughters has exceeded 5,000, but he has never touched any of the 5,000 adopted daughters.

And he gave it away for free.

Very exaggerated.

At least for the Ming army generals, this behavior was simply unbelievable.

Moreover, he also asked people to teach these adopted daughters how to read and write.

This is even more incredible.

"What's wrong with this?

My education doesn't allow me to do this.

In our time, for the first time, three wives and four concubines were not allowed. At least legally, only one husband and one wife were recognized. Adults were not considered adults until they were eighteen years old. People under the age of fourteen were treated with the same force as your children under the age of twelve.

Although our punishment is not as severe as yours, after all, you are hanged.

In fact, our laws are very different from yours at this time, and our moral values ​​are also different.

Some of your things are completely unreasonable to us.

Such as burial."

Yang Feng said.

This issue really should be taken seriously.

At this time, it was already happening. After Zhu Biao died, his concubines were buried, and Zhu Yuanzhang was about to die, so he had to start to penetrate it ideologically.

Let this system be abandoned as soon as possible.

"Another example is a slave.

This is also unreasonable to us.

Of course, hiring is possible.

In the late Northern Song Dynasty, this point was almost completely employed. Although serfs began to appear again in the Southern Song Dynasty due to the expansion of Neo-Confucianism, the Ming Dynasty was still considered a step back in this regard. This cannot really be said to be the responsibility of His Majesty the Emperor. After all, with the

With his historical knowledge, it was probably impossible for him to know this when the system was first formulated.

Third, low status.

Although I support that some people should indeed be relegated to humble status, we did not have that at that time.

It’s not even more than two hundred years ago.

Fourth, the military household system.

This is good for now, but in fact it will soon become the main drawback.

It is necessary to maintain compulsory military service, but it does not select some people to be military households, but a universal compulsory military service system for the entire population, which means that everyone should be a military household.

Fifth, curfew.

If you want business to thrive, there should be no curfew.

At least the current curfew is unreasonable. The Northern Song Dynasty curfew can be used as a reference. Instead of abolishing this system, the curfew time is postponed to the third watch. If you are still outside after the third watch, it is indeed difficult to guarantee that you are not a thief. But the current situation is

It is really unreasonable to prohibit going out at 1:00am or 3:00pm. After all, people have work during the day, so they have time to go out at night."

Yang Feng said.

He had to systematically transform the thinking of the ruling class of the Ming Dynasty.

"But it's pitch black after three o'clock. What can people do when they go out?"

Guo Ying said.
