Chapter 227: New Year's Greetings


The tenth year of the Apocalypse is finally here.

In the special issue of the Ming Dynasty Weekly published on the 28th of the twelfth lunar month in the ninth year of the Apocalypse, everyone found that under the original annual New Year blessing edict of the emperor, a New Year's message from the new chief minister Xu Guangqi was added.

The full text of Xu Shoufu's New Year's message is in vernacular, and the title is Ming's Hope: When His Majesty the Emperor ordered Guang Qi to take over as the chief minister of the cabinet, he encouraged Guang Qi: "Nowadays, there are changes that have not happened in three thousand years.

The world has been very different.

How can we, the Ming Dynasty, take the lead at all times and step ahead in this great change?

But for A big test for you sir.”

His Majesty the Emperor has always been very considerate to his senior ministers, and has always addressed them as "teacher" or "sir".

But in Guangqi's view, His Majesty can be called the teacher of those of us.

His Majesty was far-sighted and militarily rejected the proposal to build cities in various parts of western Liaoning.

He retreated the Ming troops to Shanhaiguan, which gave us greater initiative, but made Jiannu exhausted.

His Majesty reorganized the army and created an all-firearms infantry guard that was completely different from the past.

He also personally directed the invention of flintlock muskets and artillery that were far superior to those of Westerners.

Not only did we eliminate the slaves in a short period of time, but we also taught the Japanese and Spanish who had massacred my Chinese colleagues a lesson, took back the tributary countries of Sulfur Ball and Luzon, and turned the South China Sea into a place where only the Ming Dynasty could sail. area.

Your Majesty has studied Confucianism intensively and found out the difference between the words of the saints and the words of later generations from the complicated various theories, so that we can see through the clouds and understand the true meaning of the words of the saints.

Moreover, His Majesty creatively proposed that all theories are related to the situation at that time and the level of understanding at that time.

Do not be superstitious about the words of saints, and you should selectively absorb the essence of the words of saints.

Although this argument aroused the disapproval of many Confucian scholars when it was first proposed, in subsequent research we found that His Majesty the Emperor's argument was so right.

We have not found any errors except for His Majesty the Emperor's remarks.

In addition to other places, even saints may not understand certain things thoroughly enough.

But His Majesty the Emperor said that he himself cannot guarantee that all his remarks are correct.

If there are any ill-considered remarks in his remarks, he hopes that everyone will provide opinions in time so that he can correct them.

The Book of Songs has something to say about others. , you can attack jade, this is the reason.

His Majesty actively studied all kinds of knowledge, including barbarian knowledge, and put forward his own opinions on this basis.

Now the steel plants, cement plants, paper mills, and glass factories all over the country are built under His Majesty's guidance and care. can be successfully constructed.

Your Majesty is concerned about the educational situation of the people in the world.

With your Majesty’s insistence and the help of your Majesty’s selfless internal funds, we are building schools across the country and opening all kinds of schools.

Your Majesty said, if the people of the Ming Dynasty all receive education With basic education, Ming Dynasty will always be ahead of other countries in the world, and in the near future, Ming Dynasty will be able to do things that its predecessors did not even dare to think of, such as no longer needing lamp oil to light a lamp.

Some people think this is impossible, but I want to tell you that under the personal guidance of His Majesty, the research institute has invented a lamp that does not require lamp oil.

Although it is impossible to promote it nationwide in a short time, ten years later, in the capital At night, you will see lamps without oil shining brightly, making the night in the capital look like day.

Your Majesty is concerned about whether the people of Ming Dynasty have been oppressed by others in their lives, and whether there is a smooth way to reflect after being oppressed.

So, based on listening to the voices of ordinary people, His Majesty asked the cabinet and ministers to formulate laws to protect the people of the Ming Dynasty.

Courts were established across the country to hear people's cases.

The court is directly under the jurisdiction of Dali Temple and has no subordinate relationship with local government offices at all levels.

In this way, when the government oppresses the people, the people can turn to the court for help without worrying about officials defending each other.

There are also Jin Yiwei, patrol censors, investigators from the Economic Investigation Bureau, and agents from the Independent Commission Against Corruption all over the place.

They are always monitoring the officials, lest they do harm to the people.

It can be said that the people's refusal to fight against the officials, which has been passed down in the past dynasties, is no longer applicable during the Tianqi period.

As long as people feel that they have been treated unfairly by the government, you can stand up bravely and make your voice heard.

His Majesty said that as long as it is not unreasonable, as long as you are justified and the people dare to say no to the government, His Majesty the Emperor and the law will be on your side.

What you do is actually conducive to the healthy development of the government.

Your Majesty is concerned about the health of the people of Ming Dynasty.

Under His Majesty's personal guidance, doctors of Ming Dynasty discovered some causes of human diseases, conducted in-depth analysis of these causes, and developed a large number of symptomatic drugs.

His Majesty also established a medical school, trained a large number of doctors, and opened various hospitals.

It is necessary to ensure that the people of the Ming Dynasty can receive timely treatment after falling ill.

Even those with poor families can apply for free medical treatment, so that there will be no situation where they are sick and cannot be treated.

Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net

Of course, we still have too few hospitals and there is a big shortage of doctors, but we have been building hospitals and training doctors.

In the foreseeable future, free medical care will be spread across the country.

More than two hundred years after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, after experiencing many ups and downs and humiliations that we do not want to recall, we see the hope of the Ming Dynasty again, because we have waited for a man who is modest and pragmatic, respects the saints, values ​​education, cares about people's livelihood, and is willing to take care of the people.

The weakling, His Majesty the Emperor, is obsessed with fighting bandits and opening up territory for the Ming Dynasty.

His Majesty the Emperor said that the most important thing for a country is the spirit of its people.

If the people are brave, the country will be brave.

If the people are prosperous, the country will be prosperous and strong.

If the people are wise, the country will be wise; if the people are confident, the country will be confident; if the people are educated, the country will be educated.

A country is a collection of citizens.

Everyone is a member of the Ming Dynasty.

Your words and deeds can reflect the style of the Ming Dynasty.

His Majesty the Emperor also said that if a young man is strong, then the Ming Dynasty will be strong.

Young people are the hope of Ming Dynasty and the future of Ming Dynasty.

A teenage student in the institute developed a ship that traveled thousands of miles a day, and a teenage officer in the Guards made great contributions to killing generals and capturing flags.

Young people are energetic, energetic, and have immortal ideas.

These are all good things, both for the country and the people.

They may not be steady enough, but isn't being steady another way of saying not wanting to make progress?

The Young Emperor continues to bring us surprises, and we expect and believe that he will definitely bring us more and greater surprises.

My colleagues, we are so lucky to have such an emperor.

Guangqi believes that under the leadership of His Majesty the Emperor, Ming Dynasty will move towards a more glorious tomorrow
