Chapter 539 One Person Gives Birth to Multiple Children
Especially those people in the Ming Dynasty who had fought against bandits but returned empty-handed, no longer want to say anything, as this makes them look like good-for-nothings.
"It's okay, it's okay," Wang Yangming smiled modestly, but he was also thinking in his mind that when he returned, the task of suppressing bandits in Jiangxi would definitely fall on his head, so he had to think about what to do.
As for enlightenment, alas, he now has some clues, but he still has only a superficial understanding. He always feels that there is only one step left to see through it.
Knowing your own deeds in advance has both advantages and disadvantages.
"In 1519, Ning Wang Zhu Chenhao launched a mutiny and wanted to rebel.
It is said that when this news reached the capital, the ministers in the court were shocked.
Not only Wang Qiong said calmly, with Saint Wang in Jiangxi, the traitor will definitely have nowhere to escape.
This is indeed the case. At that time, Saint Wang, you were preparing to go to Fujian to quell the rebellion there.
Saint Wang, after you learned that Prince Ning had rebelled, you immediately rushed to Ji'an.
But after you pacified the bandits, you had already handed in your military tokens, so now you, Saint Wang, have no soldiers at all!"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty Zhu Houzhao frowned in front of the sky curtain. This Prince Ning actually dared to rebel. He narrowed his eyes and ordered people to capture Prince Ning. Now that he already knew about it in advance, it would be impossible for him to happen again.
When Prince Ning Zhu Chenhao heard that his purpose of rebellion was exposed, he was so angry that he smashed countless things. Tianmu was really a bastard who exposed his intention to rebellion.
Prince Ning was furious and summoned his staff, planning to rebel first. Since everyone already knew about it, the emperor would not let him go, so he might as well give it a try.
……
The people of the Ming Dynasty were also somewhat worried. How could Saint Wang resist the rebellion of Prince Ning when he had no soldiers at all?
“Saint Wang, you are trying to buy time to recruit soldiers.
Saint Wang, you spread false news that the imperial court has sent a large army to attack Nanchang, the home base of Prince Ning.
He also wrote a wax letter and asked Ning Wang's false ministers Li Shishi and Liu Yang to persuade Ning Wang to send troops to attack Nanjing, and deliberately leaked it to Ning Wang.
Sure enough, Li and Liu persuaded King Ning to march into Nanjing, but King Ning had doubts in his heart and did not move his troops.
After waiting for more than ten days, they prepared to attack Anqing only after realizing that the imperial court had not sent that many troops.
Just as Prince Ning led his troops down Jiujiang River and eyed Nanjing, Saint Wang had already led the hastily assembled 80,000 rebel-suppression troops to attack Prince Ning's lair, forcing Prince Ning to go back for rescue.
Finally, the two sides had a decisive battle in Poyang Lake. After three days of fierce fighting, Prince Ning was defeated and captured. Saint Wang, it took you only 35 days to quell this rebellion.
These civil officials should learn from you, sage Wang, otherwise they will be so weak that they can't even draw a bow and arrow, and the six arts of a gentleman will only be learning by rote. "The civil officials of previous dynasties were not weak at all. They were all good at both literature and martial arts, and were good at riding and archery.
Just look at Confucius and Mencius and you will know. They were able to lift city gates and drive a four-horse chariot. They were full of power.
Confucius and Mencius also nodded in agreement, "What the little immortal said makes sense. We should indeed be like Saint Wang."
In particular, the look in Confucius' eyes when he looked at Wang Yangming was full of admiration.
This junior is truly great and deserves to be called a saint by later generations.
Wang Yangming's face turned red when Confucius praised him. He lowered his head, excited, happy, and had a silly smile on his face. Confucius praised him again, and he could brag about this for the rest of his life.
The civil officials in front of the sky were silent. No, they were just civil officials. If each of them was as powerful as Wang Shouren, what would be the use of military generals?
The military generals also mocked the civil officials, saying, "Did you hear me? I told you not to just study hard. You are all so weak that I can kill you with just one punch."
The civil officials were angry and didn't want to talk, but many of them nodded in agreement.
This matter was discussed in the barrage. It is true that the literati of the dynasties after them were not as strong as those of the dynasties before them.
Many people no longer knew how to ride a horse or shoot arrows, so the emperors issued orders that the scholars should also practice. For a time, the scholars of all dynasties wailed.
Some literati were very happy. In fact, many literati liked riding horses, archery, martial arts, etc., but because of their status, they dared not touch them, fearing that people would say that they were as vulgar as those generals, so they silently suppressed their hobbies in their hearts.
Now, they can develop.

“However, your great achievement in suppressing the rebellion, Saint Wang, was not recognized by Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty.
Because at that time, there were some villains around Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty who were on good terms with Prince Ning, and some even wanted you, Saint Wang, to release Prince Ning, and then have Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty capture Prince Ning himself during his southern tour, in order to satisfy his vanity.
Faced with this situation, what else could you do, Saint Wang? You could only hand Prince Ning over to the eunuch Zhang Yong, who was relatively upright at the time. Saint Wang yourself simply claimed to be ill and did not want to be involved in these troubles.
Therefore, during the reign of Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty, Saint Wang, you did not receive any reward for your contribution in suppressing the rebellion. It was not until Emperor Shizong of the Ming Dynasty ascended the throne that you were promoted to a higher position.
"The late Ming Dynasty, ah," Li Wu shook his head, "in fact, no matter which dynasty, the late period is extremely bad. In short, the Ming Dynasty eventually went to destruction. There are many reasons, a large part of which is the feudal system established by Ming Taizu. I also know that it was the most difficult and challenging for Ming Taizu to sit on the throne of the emperor.
So he wanted his descendants to live a good life and no longer suffer like himself, so he established the feudal system. However, the power of the princes was too large, and there were too many royal family members. The court needed a large amount of money to support them. Where did the money come from? It naturally came from the people. It was really a blessing to support such a large group of royal family members, otherwise it would be strange if the court was not dragged down.
Most of those princes and vassal kings were like being kept in captivity, and they would have babies whenever they had nothing to do.
Take one of the grandsons of Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, Prince Qingcheng, for example. Do you know how many children he had? He alone had more than a hundred children, more than a hundred. Just think about it. There are so many members of the royal family. Even if each of them only has 20 to 30 children, the court will not be able to support all those members of the royal family. So Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, I think you have to change this, otherwise the Ming Dynasty will be dragged to death by the royal family sooner or later." Li Wu just felt that his head was enlarged.
Giving birth to so many children, and the children giving birth to children, it makes my scalp tingle just thinking about it.
Wang Yangming nodded. The little immortal expressed his thoughts, as well as the thoughts of the later emperors of the Ming Dynasty: woooo, it is so difficult for them to raise children. They can't afford to support them at all.
This shocked everyone in front of the sky. No, this person gave birth to more than a hundred children. Oh my God, he is a pig and his surname is indeed Zhu, but he can't give birth to so many children.
During the reign of Emperor Taizu of Ming Dynasty: When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, his face became extremely gloomy, “Giving birth to more than a hundred sons, huh,” Zhu Yuanzhang also began to think about it, and it was indeed as the little immortal said, if every member of the royal family gave birth to dozens of children, the Ming Dynasty would indeed be dragged to death.
