Ming Dynasty: My Brother-in-law is Zhu Youxiao

Every day after teaching the crown prince in the Wenhua Palace, Zhang Gui would come to the Department of Planning and Policy, and deal with the state affairs with the ministers of the Planning and Policy Department such as Yuan Keli and Chen Zizhuang.

The Department of Planning and Policy has brought together the cabinet ministers and the important officials of the six ministries, namely the Ministers of the Ministry of Officials, Ministers of the Ministry of Households, Ministers of the Ministry of War, and the eunuchs in charge of the Ministry of Rites, and can approve and draw up new orders at any time.

Although the emperor still needs to make a decision on the procedure, because the emperor does not come to the policy making department often, and cannot make a timely decision, so in many cases, several policy making ministers of the policy making department discuss and decide, and then Zhang Gui reports to Tianqi , and then determine whether the will can be formed.

The reason why Zhang Gui went to report is because Tianqi only allows Zhang Gui to enter his laboratory now.

After all, who made Zhang Gui able to provide guidance to Tianqi, who is keen on technical research, at any time.

"Jian slave please surrender?"

And on this day, after teaching the prince and returning to the Department of Strategy, Zhang Gui learned from Chen Zizhuang that Jiannu had sent envoys again and expressed his willingness to surrender.

"They are willing to go to the title of the emperor and the country, accept the appeasement, and return to the dynasty, and still accept the detention as the commander of the Great Ming Jianzhou Guard."

Chen Zizhuang said.

Zhang Gui nodded and looked at Chen Zizhuang and the others: "What do you guys think about this?"

"After discussing it, we all think that this is actually returning to the state before Nurhachi's rebellion. Although this is considered worthy of the ancestors, there is no guarantee that when the slaves regain their strength, they will not continue to rebel and cause wars. disaster."

Yuan Keli, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, said at this time.

Zhang Gui nodded, seeing that the other ministers of the Department of Planning and Policy were unwilling to let Jiannu go, so he followed suit and said, "In my humble opinion, the policy of confinement is no longer suitable for the current situation!"

"The civilization of the Han family was originally the most advanced civilization. It is so vast that it has been rushing forward for thousands of years. It is no longer comparable to the barbaric civilization of the barbarians!"

"The great Ming who inherited the civilization of the Han family has the obligation to make the backward barbarians in the world accept the assimilation of advanced civilization, and then know the etiquette and keep virtue, so that the war will be eliminated forever."

"The so-called restraint can only be a measure that cannot eliminate unification for a while, not a long-term solution."

"The several rebellions in the Southwest and the Jianzhou Rebellion are clear evidence."

"To deal with the barbarians, we should not only make them surrender militarily, but also give up the restraints, reform the land and return it to the local people, and promote Sinicization! And this will surely win the support of the barbarians. After all, who would not want to Sinicize and enjoy the same status as the Han family ?”

After Zhang Gui said this, Bi Ziyan asked: "Is it really necessary for us to take the initiative to promote the Sinicization of the barbarians?"

After asking such a sentence, Bi Ziyan said again: "I asked this, not because I don't want to Sinicize the barbarians, but because we need slaves very much. Now the Han people can't be slaves. If we let the barbarians be Sinicized again, wouldn't it be Will there be fewer people who can be enslaved?"

"But only in this way can it be regarded as the right way to unify the world, otherwise how can you talk about being famous as a teacher?"

"Besides, those in power must have a goal."

"Dedicating the king to Yao and Shun, creating peace for all generations, and establishing life for the people are all goals."

"And if the goal is to bring peace to all generations, I think the current ruling of Ming Dynasty should aim to Sinicize the world. Otherwise, how can we talk about peace for all generations?"

At this time, Zhang Gui mentioned the goal of governing again.

"To the King, Yao and Shun, has been realized. Your Majesty's achievements can already stand shoulder to shoulder with Yao, Shun and Yu Tang."

Wen Tiren, who had just joined the planning department, interjected at this moment, and took the opportunity to flatter Tian Qi.

Because of this, people like Chen Zizhuang and Yuan Keli couldn't help but glance at Wen Tiren, but they didn't object clearly, but nodded along.

After all, people are only responsible for the source of their own power. They are now able to have such great power because of the emperor's apocalypse. How can they deny apocalypse.

Whoever makes himself a cabinet minister is the Holy King!

There is no doubt about it.

Therefore, although Wen Tiren flattered Tian Qi, no one objected.

Therefore, Zhang Gui took this opportunity to say: "Therefore, it is unnecessary to become the target of the next ruling."

"Building a life for the people has already been completed, and now there is no starvation in Daming. If you think about it carefully, only Uncle Guo's promise of bringing peace to all generations has not been realized."

At this moment, Chen Zizhuang started talking.

Yuan Keli also echoed: "That's right! If we want to continue the situation of ZTE and the existence of the peaceful society, we must have this goal."

"The so-called flowing water does not corrupt households and pivots, and the government must always have the awareness of innovation and eliminate evils. It must not be greedy for comfort, but must have the ideal of bringing peace to all generations. Otherwise, the so-called prosperous age will eventually be just a dream, just a flash in the pan."

"Besides, if we don't do this, there is no doubt that there is no need for the Department of Planning and Strategy to continue to exist. Because the purpose of the reform of enriching people and benefiting the people has been achieved, so if no new goals are established, there is no need for the Department of Planning and Strategy to continue to exist. .”

Zhang Gui went on to speak.

The people in the Strategy Department are naturally unwilling to abolish the Strategy Department, after all, their power will shrink if the Strategy Department is revoked.

Therefore, Bi Ziyan also had to change his words at this time: "In this way, it is indeed necessary to think that peace for all generations is the goal of the next ruling, and to do so will naturally make the world Sinicized, so that there will be no barbarians. But I I still don’t know if this will affect the use of slaves in the Kingdom.”

"You don't have to worry about the chief secretary. If the disappearance of slaves is inevitable, then let him disappear!"

When Zhang Gui said this, he looked at the representatives of the elites of the Ming Dynasty who were present in this era, and asked with a smile, "But do you think this will really disappear?"

"As long as there are those who are willing to be slaves and servants, they will not disappear."

"Thinking about this now, it's too far away. However, no matter what, it is the way to bring the world's barbarians away from barbarism and become kings! If everyone in the world is a member of the Han family in the future, it will only cause the world to rise and fall. It goes round and round, but no matter what, there is no danger of subjugation of the world, only the subjugation of the country."

Yuan Keli spoke at this moment.

Bi Ziyan nodded after hearing this: "We can only do what Otsuka-zai said, first strive to Sinicize the world first, and there will be no destruction of the world. That being the case, the detainment must never be done again."

"That's right, if the Southwest wants to change the land and return it to the people, if the slaves want to surrender, they can only return all the Han people, gold and silver that were taken captive. You must bind your hands, open the Hetuala city gate, dedicate your land books and the traitors who have taken refuge in them, and kneel down to the imperial envoy sent by Daming to surrender. Unconditionally accept all the disposal of His Majesty the Emperor of Ming!"

Zhang Gui said accordingly.

Therefore, Chen Zizhuang followed Zhang Gui's wishes and replied to Li Sutai, the envoy who established slavery.

Li Shitai was stunned for a long time after hearing this, and his body trembled unconsciously. He really didn't expect that the attitude of the Ming authorities would be so tough!

In this way, Li Sutai could only bribe the ministers in the court, so that some ministers in the court who did not want to fight again but were willing to let Jiannu continue to exist spoke for him.

Many ministers in the court, especially those who believe in Confucianism, already have the idea of ​​being able to restore the situation of their ancestors without using troops. Now, under the temptation of money, some ministers really He was willing to speak up for Jiannu, and began to spread the words of forgiving and forgiving, that benevolence should be given when benevolence is given, and that appeasement should be more popular than blind conquest.
