Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    1770 in the Yanhuang calendar, the 20th year of Zhengde.

    In a mountainside attic of Hongyun Winery in Nanyun Province, Liu Jin, who is nearly 70 years old, is carefully planning his autobiography at his desk, carefully considering the content written earlier, and thinking and thinking over and over again.

    Since the death of Emperor Hongzhi, Liu Jin moved to Nanyun Province to settle down. Since then, he has not gone anywhere and has been living here.

    Every day he takes a walk among the beautiful mountains and rivers to exercise, read books, and write his autobiography. Liu Jin lived a very comfortable life in his later years.

    Maybe it¡¯s because he¡¯s no longer running around, but Liu Jin feels like he¡¯s getting younger as he gets older. He exercises every day and his energy level is very good.

    Maybe it¡¯s because the climate and air in Nanyun Province are really good, and Liu Jin can go to the hot springs here.

    Liu Jin¡¯s childhood was quite pleasant and comfortable. When he was in a good mood, he could also teach his son¡¯s studies.

    Retiring here in Nanyun Province, when he had nothing to do, Liu Jin's concubines also made many flowers and fruits for Liu Jin. This old man had children, and Liu Jin's discipline of these young sons was relatively loose.  Some, unlike the previous seven sons, are extremely strict and demanding.

    And in the past, Liu Jin, as an important minister of the imperial court, was very busy every day and did not have much time to spend with them. On the contrary, this old son gave birth to Liu Jin, who had plenty of time, so he had a lot more time to spend with them.

    "Old Wang~"

    "Wang Shouren!"

    Liu Jin looked at the autobiography he had written, and there was a mention of Wang Shouren in it. Liu Jin also deliberately studied and figured it out carefully.

    Thinking of Wang Shouren, Liu Jin couldn't help but sigh.

    A year ago, Wang Shouren also died of illness. Liu Jin did not go to the capital to mourn Wang Shouren. Instead, he wrote a memorial letter in memory of Wang Shouren and had it sent to the Wang family.

    Liu Jin is full of admiration for Wang Shouren, the last Confucian saint.

    This is a truly outstanding person. Not to mention the past and the present, at least in the past few hundred years, there has only been one outstanding person, Wang Shouren.

    He has made extremely outstanding contributions and achievements in many aspects.

    Let¡¯s not talk about the study of mind. He is the master of the study of mind and the founder of the Yangming School. There are too many people in later generations who have been influenced by Wang Shouren¡¯s thoughts on the study of mind. This school has produced many outstanding people.  , even hundreds of years later, a large number of people around the world are still studying his ideas.

    In terms of military affairs, Wang Shouren also made outstanding contributions. In his later years, Wang Shouren had to deal with national affairs on the one hand, and on the other hand, he took the time to write a military book of the new era. This military book of the new era elaborated on the accompanying military affairs.  With the development and progress of science and technology.

    As humans create more and more powerful and advanced weapons, the future war situation will undergo tremendous changes. He even boldly predicted in his book that in the future, wars between the two sides may be fought hundreds of miles apart.  Thousands of miles away, even thousands of miles away.

    Such an accurate and bold prediction made Liu Jin admire Lao Wang after seeing this military book. He was a civil servant and a scholar who had been separated from the military for a long time. It was really amazing that he could have such advanced foresight.

    In addition to his great achievements in these two aspects, Wang Shouren made great contributions in philosophy, literature, education and many other aspects, leaving a large amount of valuable wealth to future generations.

    Liu Jin can¡¯t help but admire such an awesome person.

    His departure also made Liu Jin sad for a long time.

    Wang Shouren's departure also made Liu Jin lose one of his old friends, and also made the situation between the government and the opposition in Ming Dynasty turbulent.

    In the past, when Liu Jin and Wang Shouren were around, they could control all the officials in the government and the public. In addition, both of them were powerful enough and influential enough, so all the civil and military officials also obeyed them.

    There were two people assisting Emperor Zuo Zhengde in handling national affairs, and everything was handled in an orderly manner.

    But when Wang Shouren left, the situation between the government and the opposition changed. The new cabinet ministers and ministers were quite capable, but their prestige was far less than that of Liu Jin and Lao Wang.

    The other ministers were not very convinced, and the factional struggle that had been suppressed began again, but this is not the key. The key is that Emperor Zhengde's health has become extremely bad in the past few years.

    Without the control of Emperor Hongzhi, he began to completely indulge, indulge in sensuality, and took a large amount of tiger and wolf medicine to cheer up, and his body was getting worse day by day.

    This aspect caused Emperor Zhengde¡¯s temperament to change drastically.??Completely liberated the Uzbek area.

    On the one hand, it weakens the chieftain system in the Uzang region, liberates the serfs, and gives ordinary people in the Uzang region the freedom and materials and land to survive.

    This alone made countless people in the Uszang area feel grateful to Emperor Zhengde, and deeply felt the divine grace of the Emperor of Heaven. They hung the portrait of Emperor Zhengde high in their homes and chanted sutras and chanted Buddhist scriptures for him every day.

    Another aspect is to gradually strip away the control and influence of temples and religions on politics in the Us-Zang area, return the land to the locals, and appoint exiled officials to the Us-Zang area to establish the same system as other areas of the Ming Dynasty.

    In addition, we attach great importance to investment in the Uzang region, with particularly large investments in transportation and education. A large number of people in the Uzang region who received new education began to quickly integrate into the big family of the Ming Empire.

    It can be said that the great changes that took place in the Uzang area were all realized in the hands of the Zhengde Emperor Zhu Houzhao, which allowed the Ming Empire to truly achieve effective rule over this vast area, and also allowed this area that was originally a backward serf system to rapidly  developed.

    Externally, Emperor Zhengde also made a lot of contributions and achievements. The first point is that Zhu Houzhao attached great importance to military affairs and the development of military science and technology.

    For this reason, a science and technology military yamen was specifically established under the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion, which specially convened a large number of new science and technology professors, engineers, etc. to study various powerful arms and weapons and equipment.

    Zhu Houzhao also attached great importance to the Ming Dynasty's control and layout of the world. On the original basis, the Ming Empire successively set up military bases on important shipping routes around the world, laying out control and influence over all parts of the world, so that the Ming Empire's army could once again  Delivered to anywhere in the world within 48 hours.

    At the same time, Zhu Houzhao, who loved the military and admired Huo Qubing since he was a child, further strengthened the welfare and treatment of soldiers, allowing Ming soldiers to gain more guarantees and dignity.

    Perhaps the only regret is that during the twenty years he was in power, no country dared to challenge the Ming Empire. For many years, the Ming Empire had only one million troops, a powerful army, a large number of battleships, cannons, etc.  But it's like practicing the art of slaying a dragon, but it's useless.

    This made Zhu Houzhao very depressed. In fact, he had always wanted to find an opponent for a good fight. He even supported Spain for this purpose, hoping that Spain could unify Europe.

    However, although Charles V of Spain was powerful, he was never able to unify Europe. He only occupied a lot of areas in Western Europe, but he was never able to defeat the coalition forces of the Holy See and the Holy Roman Empire, and he was never able to unify Europe.

    ??And the Spaniards also know how powerful the Ming Empire is, and they don't dare to provoke the Ming people at all, let alone give the Ming Empire any reason to start a war. They have always been very friendly to the Ming Empire.

    There are too many things to write about in the life of Zhengde Emperor Zhu Houzhao. Although he was excessively indulgent and very absurd, this cannot conceal the great contribution he made to this country.
