Generally speaking, the emperors of the Ming Dynasty were mostly assholes.

In the Ming dynasty, everything in the system, good or bad, was left by Gaozu. The high impedance method is powerful, and naturally it is hoped for generations to come. Unfortunately, the plan never changed quickly. In the palace gate, I was forbidden to interfere in politics, and Wang Zhen stole it. Detailed laws were formulated, but as soon as the Royal Guards of the East and West Factories came out, the rule of law became the emperor's private or official rule. Founding heroes were slaughtered, involving countless people, such as aquamarine. Seal the emperor Wang Baowei, at the same time to prevent the captaincy against the enemy, recruit captaincy into Beijing. But the prince died young and his grandson was young, which gave Chengzu a chance.

Wen Jian is very talented, but the credit scholar Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng cut too many governors, forcing the prince to rebel and become incompetent in military affairs. But the prince took the world and said that this military affairs was difficult. Wen Jian's whereabouts is a mystery in history. It is said that he escaped disguised as a monk.

Chengzu usurped the throne through violence, and then suppressed the crowd through bloody repression. Fang Xiaoru was destroyed by ten families. His son (Jane) has been imprisoned for more than 50 years, and he doesn't even know about cows and horses after he got out of prison. The female prisoner ordered the rapist. Quite martial arts, south of Annan, a North Korean vassal, and Zheng He under Shanyang.

Ren Xuan's two dynasties were closely related to the people, which was comparable to China's literary world.

Yingzong is not bad, but it's a pity that eunuch Wang Zhen was replaced by a civil fort, and 500,000 troops were lost and trapped in a foreign country. So it led to the change of robbing the door, and a group of hooligans gained power.

Xianzong was timid by nature, and favored Wan Guifei and eunuch Wang Zhi. He is superstitious about alchemy and seeks sexual skills.

Filial piety and generosity, wrote "Da Ming Hui Dian".

Wu Zong was stubborn, and the political corruption in Ming Dynasty began with Zheng De.

I like to call myself a general and lead troops to fight. Actually, it's all bullshit. Wang Yangming, a great scholar, advocates the unity of knowledge and action. Good study, not bad politics. More than a month later, Wang Ning Chen Hao's rebellion was put down. This coincides with the personal expedition of Emperor Zheng De. Zheng De thought of the war addiction, so he concealed the good news, pretended not to know, continued to invade and made a scene. When they arrived in Yangzhou, they openly robbed civilian workers and people fled. Later, local officials persuaded them to rob at night. And because pigs are homophonic, he sent troops to kill all the pigs of hundreds of miles of people in Fiona Fang. All kinds of absurd things behave like bandits. I even want to ask Wang Yangming to release the captured Wang Ning, and he led the troops to encirclement and suppression. If he failed, he asked the king to give it to his eunuch. Camouflage is his own credit. Finally, when I returned to Beijing, I staged a show of offering prisoners, only to kill Wang Ning. This Wang Ning is Wang Ning in "Tang Bohu Dianchouxiang". He recruited talents in advance and got them, but Tang had no choice but to pretend to be crazy and escape.

Liu Jin, a great eunuch, is also a famous figure in North Korea. Yi Zhongtian called it a super water pump in The Sorrow of the Empire. He stipulated that local officials must send him 22,000 pieces of silver when they go to Beijing for business, and even ask for bribes from relatives and friends. In addition, the collusion between Jiao Fang, the first minister of Zheng De Dynasty, and the eunuch clique is also a great sin. In the Ming Dynasty, the gathering of eunuchs began in Zheng De. There is almost no good governance throughout Zhengde.

Sejong changed its name from offering the Prince to inheriting the Great Unity, and held a grand ceremony in 17. Destroy the monk, the bus for Journey to the West is late. Good youth ci, the most famous prime minister of youth ci, namely Yan Song and his son. Yan Song's property is equivalent to one year's revenue of the whole dynasty. It is a miracle that those old-fashioned people like Harry lived alone in Sejong and denounced the emperor without tragic death. Qi Jiguang ruled the enemy. Not for over twenty years.

God is greedy. Zhang was robbed immediately after his death, and his property was less than Yan Song 1/20. Setting up a mine supervisor to collect money and increasing taxes three times has aroused great resentment in the world. The axe king is favored and the prince is despised. There was a court attack when eunuchs of Zheng Guifei, the mother of the axe king, instigated people to murder the prince. Not going to Korea for 25 years can't make up for the shortage of officials. Gu Xiancheng gives lectures in Lindong, which is the first place where people discuss state affairs. Since Wanli, there has been an eschatological phase in the Ming Dynasty.

Guangzong tried his best to reform the former dynasty, but he was addicted to women, only in May. There is a red pill case, that is, it is rumored that Guangzong died of taking red pills by mistake. Red pills are made from menstrual blood of women, and sex hormones are probably used as aphrodisiacs.

Xizong has no culture and likes to be a carpenter. There is an example of moving the palace, which is to force Li to move out of the East Palace in order to prevent the little emperor from being controlled by his mother. As usual, there was a big eunuch, Wei Zhongxian, who ended up in trouble with Lindong Party. As a result, Lindong was slaughtered and the country declined. Middle school textbooks include "Five-person Tomb Monument" and "Ascending to Level 3". The former said that the Japanese Yen Party's capture of Lindong was countered by the people, while the latter said that Wei Zhongxian was illiterate.

In four cases, it was too late to eradicate the Wei Party. Being suspicious, he killed the minister in vain, and even killed Yuan Chonghuan unjustly, thus hastening his death.

When the small court of Nanming was in danger, it didn't die to sing backyard flowers. Among them, Hong Guang is called the son of toad, because he is keen to ask people to catch toad and give him an aphrodisiac.

Many bad cases started from the Ming Dynasty, or they got out of control from the Ming Dynasty.

On the one hand, the abolition of phase makes the monarch seize the power of phase, regardless of family and country, and the state is dictatorial to the monarch. In the three provinces that used to be prime ministers, all books, doors and ministers were abolished, leaving only six subjects who did things with the right to veto the will. The six ministers were directly responsible to the emperor. Dictatorship led to too heavy political affairs, except for the founding emperor Cheng Zu, who came to power on his own and was extremely energetic. Later emperors could not cope with it at all. For example, a court official typed more than 1,000 books in eight days and said more than 3,000 things, so much so that they were weighed by scales. If you are too busy, you can use a private secretary to help you, that is, the cabinet, to go to the palace for deliberation frequently and become the actual prime minister. Later, even the cabinet didn't bother to look at it. The cabinet's opinion was posted on the memorial with a small piece of paper, which was handed over to the emperor by the eunuch and called the draft. Some courtiers and courtiers have never seen the emperor once. I was suddenly summoned and didn't know how to deal with it. They wet their pants with fear. They don't read the paper in person, but read it by eunuchs, so eunuchs can cheat (Yang Jisheng impeached Yan Song). Finally, the eunuch wrote a reply directly on the memorial and became the actual emperor.

Second, the eunuch party, in addition to MAO, almost every dynasty has a big eunuch in charge. Not only the central government, but also military expeditions (military supervision), health centers, local administration, mining, and diplomacy (such as Zheng He) are monitored by eunuchs.

Third, the factory guards, the Royal Guards in the East and West factories made the monarch Lynch take the place of the national law, and more eunuchs took the lead, so the rule of law became a means for eunuchs to crack down on dissidents. The ideal political and moral theory (the way of Confucius and Mencius) is far from reality, which creates a huge rent-seeking space. In real life, people often get into trouble in the name of benevolence and morality. In fact, as long as you want to harm others, you can always find reasons or unwarranted charges. The so-called rule of law can only become a mere formality.

For four days, the court staff insulted the literati and often killed them immediately. Blocking the road of speech, losing the heart of the minister.

In addition, there was no custom of martyrdom in the Tang and Song Dynasties, but it rose in the previous generations of the Ming Dynasty and was really reactionary. Fortunately, it was forbidden by Yingzong.

The sea is closed and the enemy is rampant. Waci, Anda and Nuzhen in the north were in trouble, and they called Beijing several times (Jingtai, Jiajing and Chongzhen).

In the imperial system, there is no way to choose a ruler politically, so we have to adopt the hereditary system with the least bloodshed. As a result, the quality of state affairs always depends on whether the emperor is virtuous or not. Even if there is good governance, it will only last for a lifetime, and then it will be overthrown after a hundred years. The emperor seldom has the highest virtue, but only eunuchs, consorts and courtiers take turns to go into battle. Ministers often impeach the emperor to punish traitors, so they dare not say anything, precisely because the root of traitors lies in the emperor himself. The two most unworthy emperors in the Ming Dynasty were the longest reigners, 45 years in Jiajing and 48 years in Wanli. Ren Xuan's rule lasted only 1 1 year. Destruction is easier than construction. How can politics be better?

In this case, some strange things will happen. For example, Marvin's uprising led to the establishment of the country, and Wang Shouren Chen Ping's chaos led to the fighting, and the credit was attributed to eunuchs. Qi Jiguang sends beautiful women to Zhang. Zhang netting eunuchs. Local officials need to pay bribes when they go to Beijing to handle affairs. Besides Yan Shifan, Xu Jie is the most typical example. After Yan fell out of favor, courtiers tried to kill him. The third division intends to impeach him and kill Zhongliang. Xu Jie said, do you want to let him go? Said, and he took out another prepared paper from his sleeve, saying that Yan Shifan was collaborating with the enemy. The emperor made a thorough investigation of the monkey, and Xu Jie replied that he found the evidence and successfully killed Yan Shifan. Yan is naturally very wronged, and it will not work without this plan. Because the key to political struggle is not who is right or wrong, but to win the support of the emperor. Killing Zhongliang was the emperor's fault. Isn't this charge used to impeach the emperor? Therefore, we must find another reason. Rebellion is the most taboo of the emperor, so it is necessary. In the struggle for the emperor, eunuchs and queens naturally gained the upper hand. And imperial politics, is to let the liegeman self-criticism. Sejong, for example, has not been to court for more than 20 years, and his power is not far behind, because he makes good use of political skills.

How can I be loyal to you? These are all moral issues. There were many eunuchs and few courtiers in the Ming Dynasty. There are public schools, imperial examinations, recommendations and a smooth civil service system. Therefore, the following emperors have not been in North Korea for decades, and government affairs actually operate as usual. That's it. Why not implement a constitutional monarchy? I can't imagine why the minister must be emperor. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the people's discussion of Lindong Party seemed a bit like the opposition party in the west, but it was finally destroyed by the eunuch party. I think it is necessary to discuss this point. Can China spontaneously evolve a civilized politics similar to that of the West? If so, why not? If not, why not?
