If there were no civil strife in Li Zicheng in the late Ming Dynasty, would there still be a constitutional monarchy?

The Ming Dynasty was the pioneer of world democracy. Before Li Zicheng entered the customs, Daming was already a constitutional monarchy. This is an ironclad fact, and it is absolutely not allowed to be smeared! A rock-solid evidence is that there was an institution called the Cabinet in the Ming Dynasty. You will find that all countries with constitutional monarchy have cabinets, so Daming must be a constitutional monarchy. Although this inference is fundamentally wrong in logical form, it will be proved by concrete examples below.

The emperors of the Ming Dynasty, starting from Zhu Yuanzhang, all had democratic ideas. Take Zhu Yuanzhang as an example. The first emperor who came from a common people in the past dynasties thought of punishing corruption with people's supervision. The people have the right and the right to attack the officialdom moths. This shows that Zhu Yuanzhang's political principles include the simple view of social contract theory, which holds that Daming is the Daming of the people, and officials are just clerks of the people, entrusted by Daming people to provide them with various public services. Once they violate the general will of the people, the people have the right to punish them. In the west, it was not until two hundred years later that Hobbes put forward this political theory. There is evidence that Hobbes, Locke and later Rousseau were all influenced by Ming Taizu to varying degrees. Therefore, I always think that Ming Taizu's contribution to human history is much higher than that of Washington. ..

Ming Taizu can have this idea, which shows that his thought is ahead of the times, and this great gene can be passed down from generation to generation. Therefore, the Sixteenth Emperor of Daming constantly improved the democratic genes of the Zhu family. After Ming Yingzong, the cabinet gained great power, but the emperor became more and more dissolute and indifferent to state affairs. It seems that Emperor Zhujiajian is dizzy, but it's just to hide people's eyes and ears. At that time, the democratic thought was too advanced. If the emperor gives up the imperial power rashly, it will challenge the strong historical tradition, so they understand that this needs an opportunity to realize the constitutional system. Emperor Daming creatively thought of it? Ignore politics? This measure, if the emperor ignores state affairs for a long time, power will automatically transfer to ministers. In this way, Daming can gradually get rid of the shackles of tradition and move towards a new era.

The formation of British cabinet system also drew lessons from Daming. King George III of England ignored political affairs and power slowly fell into the hands of the cabinet. It can be seen that the Ming Dynasty was a British teacher in system.

Daming's material selection also reflects his eclectic talent. Everyone, whether male or female or bisexual, can enter the highest hall of Daming politics as long as they have the ability. Ming Yingzong's father-in-law Wang Zhen is a military genius, especially good at military mobilization. Assemble 200,000 troops in a short time and personally take the emperor to crusade against Mongolia. Although he failed, his spirit is immortal and praised by Mingfen of later generations. Another example is Liu Jin's father-in-law, who is an expert in handling government affairs. Emperor Zhu Houzhao behaved so unreliably (as mentioned above, on purpose), but his father-in-law Liu managed the country in an orderly way, so that the Ming Dynasty did not collapse. It can be said that the Ming dynasty remained relatively stable under the turmoil of Ming Wuzong, thanks to the contribution of Liu Gonggong; Another example is father-in-law Wei, who is worshipped by Mingfen day and night, but is a military and political wizard. Later, he killed Jin, who was under siege, and suddenly became afraid in the face of father-in-law Wei. During the reign of Princess Wei Gonggong, the Daming soldiers were repeatedly defeated under the leadership of Wei Gonggong. It is no exaggeration to say that if Father Wei lives for another ten years, Daming will never perish!

It can be seen that Daming's democratic politics has eliminated gender boundaries. In Britain, it was not until the end of 19 that the gender restriction on democratic participation was abolished, which was nothing compared with Daming.

Therefore, there is no doubt that Daming is a constitutional monarchy. Li Zicheng's unappreciative behavior interrupted Daming's process of continuing to improve the advanced system. Therefore, the hungry people headed by Li Zicheng are sinners of Daming and history!
