Chapter 044: "Please Open the Domain"
Gao Pragmatic entered the palace in the morning, and only got out of Donghua Gate when the palace gate was about to be locked, and the emperor's attention to him was undoubtedly revealed.
But then again, the emperor's emphasis on high pragmatism is well known to everyone in the Manchu dynasty, and this is nothing new. After all, Gao Pragmatic was not only the emperor's companion when he was young, but also the second Sanyuan and the first and first six champions of the Ming Dynasty. At the same time, he is the successor of the mantle of the new Zheng Gaowen Zhenggong of the Shixue sect, and his own performance is also impeccable.
No matter how much this kind of person is valued by the emperor, others can only envy him, and he doesn't even dare to show the slightest jealousy.
It's just that he is valued and valued, and it is still rare to stay for almost a whole day as soon as he enters the palace like this, and well-informed officials have begun to speculate - isn't there something big about happening?
It is also funny to say that the news spread very quickly, and only by the evening of the same day, almost everyone in Beijing who was above the seventh grade knew about it.
Of course, the funny thing is not this, but the reaction of the officials next: the officials of the Shixue School began to get excited, they thought that Gao Shishi was going to make some big moves, and they, as "their own people", would definitely get the moon first.
So they began to ponder, thinking about how to show their faces in front of Gao Gong Bao in the near future, so as not to have their own share in this big event that they don't know what a big deal is, and Gao Gong Bao accidentally left himself behind, which would be very unbeautiful.
And the Beijing officials of the Heart School began to get nervous. Gao Pragmatic entered the palace for a whole day, what was this for? Is it a small report to the emperor, or is it simply a long discussion to instill in the emperor those so-called practical ideas that only focus on a little bit of immediate petty profits?
However, the former will not take a whole day, and the latter does not seem to be a good time - because Jingcha is next year, and it is impossible for Gao Pragmatic to make any big moves this year, and he can make a large group of people from the Heart School at once.
Speaking of which, Jingcha itself is also one of the most advantageous trump cards of the Shixue School against the Heart School, because the core department of Jingcha is the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of Officials is one of the main positions of the Shicha School. If Gao Shishi really wants to "make trouble" in the imperial court, it will definitely be delayed until the fourteenth year of Wanli, the year of Jingcha, and now it is impossible, and now at most, it will target a certain person or a few people, and it will not and will not be able to expand it.
It's just that in this way, what is Gao Shishi going to do when he enters the palace makes the officials of the Heart School even more confused, and everyone with enough qualifications and ranks quietly handed over the letter to the Shen University Scholar's Mansion, wanting to ask about the situation or ask for some guidance. If the qualifications and ranks are insufficient, they have to send people to wait at the offices of those officials who can go to the Shen University Scholars' Mansion, waiting for second-hand information.
In short, because of the small anomaly of Gao Shishi's entry into the palace for a day, the entire Jingshi officialdom almost quietly moved.
is pivotal, perhaps it is a portrayal of Gao Pragmatic's status in the court now.
It's a pity that these people are all wrong, and Gao Pragmatic has no intention of rectifying anyone, at least not these officials.
He didn't know that the hundred officials of the Beijing Division would be surging because of this little thing, and it wasn't until a bunch of worship notes were sent to him that he understood that his colleagues were all "allergic".
For this reason, he had to cheer up and give them an explanation of the general situation of entering the palace today - of course, he did not say much detail before the matter was decided, but only said that the emperor was a little worried about the growing population of the clan and the number of Yulu.
However, these Beijing officials are all smart people who know the meaning of elegance when they hear the string songs, although Gao Pragmatic is only slightly revealed, but in fact, it is already explicit, where do you not know what to do? So they thanked each other and left.
Gao Pragmatic himself was not idle, carefully brushed his thoughts, and then fell asleep.
Since Huang Zhiting returned to Annan, Gao Pragmatic has stayed in Zhaohui Jinggongfang for more time than Bai Yulou, and today is no exception. Of course, this is also for the convenience of "going to work".
Early the next morning, Gao Pragmatic arrived at the military headquarters on time, but the Praetorian Guard has now entered the right track under the auspices of Qi Jiguang, not to mention the Production and Construction Corps, although Zhu Yingzhen They are not interested in fighting, but they are still very interested in making money, and they almost don't need to be urged by Gao Pragmatic, they themselves have done a very good job, but they have given Gao Pragmatic peace of mind.
In this way, Gao Pragmatic didn't have much to worry about, so he sent someone to the household department and the ritual department to ask for some information, and began to tinker with the reform of the clan and the domain.
The reform of the clan and domain, which is bound to involve "violating the ancestral system", is something that ordinary people dare not mess with, and so far only some officials have put forward some opinions on this matter, but unfortunately, no matter how sincere it is, the part accepted by the imperial court is still very few.
This matter is complicated by the ancestral system and "kissing". Needless to say, "kissing" does not refer to some famous action, but to "get close to relatives", which is a Confucian tradition and a trait that the emperor himself had to show - whether true or not.
So this is a lot of trouble.
Violating the ancestral system is tantamount to losing legitimacy and legitimacy in this era, and under normal circumstances, everyone does not dare, the minister does not dare, and the king does not dare.
However, there is one exception, and that is that "the will of the people cannot be violated". Gao Pragmatism is now playing this idea.
Of course, public opinion has basically been "represented" for thousands of years, and the Ming Dynasty is no exception, so Gao Pragmatic doesn't need to go to the people to collect millions of fingerprints or the like, or make 10,000 umbrellas or something, he only needs to bring up the public opinion of the imperial court, resulting in a situation of "more than sparse", which is enough.
Because the literati means "public opinion", and the officials of the Ming Dynasty themselves were the representatives of the literati. This explanation is really simple and crude.
After three days like this, Gao Pragmatic estimated that everyone should be ready for what he hinted at, and it was time for him to fire the first shot, so early on the morning of the fourth day, Gao Pragmatic Shangshu entered the General Administration Department.
The title of this sparse text is "In order to relieve the people's poverty, Fengguo uses the family clan to open the feudal ban and sparse". The title has already named the main theme of this sparseness, that is, "to solve the people's difficulties, enrich the country, and pro-clan families", and the means seem to be very simple: open the feudal ban.
"Fang Jinzong's domain is flourishing, Lu grain is not given, it is not as good as today's big break of the norm, and it is early for the district painting, and it will be more difficult in the future.
Emperor Xi Gao's ministers all had heavy troops and important places, thinking that the country was Pinghan, and this was fixed for a while.
After the pacification is difficult, the nuisance is prevented, the military power is exhausted, there is no trace of relatives in the court, and there is no internal supplement for the government officials, and this is another time.
After that, arrogance gradually increased, intermittent work was not canonical, and the harvest of the land was exhausted, and this was another time.
If there are many people and few people, the expenses are not enough, but there are common rooms and dwelling, sharing bread and eating, forty and unmarried, twenty years but not empty, the strong robbed in the suburbs, and the weak smuggled into the soap, and this is also for a while.
At the beginning of Emperor Fugao's creation, Li Jianzongzi, and Emperor Wen's martyrdom, thinking about the past, had different intentions, and each had its own responsibilities. If the saints are so far in the present day, they will change their grace and judge them with righteousness, and their principles will not be exhausted.
At the beginning of the country, there were only forty-nine generals and nine women. At that time, Lu Yuan had already lost the previous amount and could not be given in full. In the past two hundred years, the number of people who have survived the Zong Zhi into the jade has been 38,492, depending on the beginning of the country is not less than a thousand times, that is, the loss of this year's supply is still not able to give it abundant, but after ten years, the increase should be almost? And how will it be given?
The speaker said that the ancestral system did not dare to change without permission, but did not know that the law was poor and changed, and the change was common and long, and the prince of the early country was 50,000 yuan, and the rest of the satin silk tea and salt were also used for 10,000 years, but not a few years, and the rice was reduced to 10,000 stones, and could not be given to the kings of the Dynasty, Su, Liao, Qing, and Ningguo, and the age was given 500 stones, which was ordered by Emperor Gao himself, and the words before and after were not consistent.
Yongle between, Lu several days, Qin, Lu, Tang each 5,000 stones, Liao, Han, Yi each 2,000 stones, Su Mansion only 700 stones, Qing Mansion although 750 stones, and the county king often allocated within the number, is Emperor Wen to go to the beginning of the country is not far away, and the text of the ancestral training is not fully observed.
In addition, the prince went out of the city, trained when he was young, searched for troops and prepared for weapons, and the ancestors also trained, and after the martyrdom, he went to bed. The prince of the county is one son, appointed and promoted, and the ancestors are also trained, and there has been no such thing since the leaves. Then Emperor Gao's ancestral teachings, it is difficult for the saints to follow them.
Today, the more difficult things are, can you still glue the pillar to adjust the situation?
The ministers are not arrogant and ugly, and dare to make five requests for arrogance, but His Majesty chooses:
First, it is limited to knighthood. The Jiajing Zhongwu asked for the law of limiting the child, but the temple did not allow it, and the minister said that there was no need to limit the life, and the seal could be limited. The present dynasty has lasted for more than 200 years, and it has been discussed by relatives, and it has also been descended, except for the first prince Gu who attacked the feudal marquis as usual, and then added detailed discussion after the third generation, and then added detailed discussions, and its tired dynasty should be established as a limit.
For example, the eldest son of the prince attacked the prince, and the second son of the prince Xu Feng was the fourth, a total of five Yan. The eldest son of the county king attacked the county king, and the second son Xu Feng was the second, a total of three. General Zhenfu Fengguo has a son-in-law who is allowed to seal the second, and no son-in-law is allowed to ask for a concubine. Lieutenant Zhenfu Fengguo, regardless of his concubine, Xu Feng has a son. For the above titles, if there are children, the number of people who cannot be sealed can be completed, please ask for the name as usual.
Those who are interested in reading, and the handsome children of the people, should be admitted to the school together, and those who are listed in the first class should be promoted, just like the case of the prince, and will not be appointed as an external official. Other industries such as the field of general engineering, from the convenience of physiology, such as the concern that its strength can not make a living, should be the amount of funds.
and if the son of the prince shall not be sealed, he shall be given a crown and six hundred taels of silver; If the son of the king of the county shall not be sealed, he shall be given a crown and belt to the twentieth year, and four hundred taels of silver; If the son of a general or lieutenant is not allowed to be sealed, he will be given a scarf and two hundred taels of silver with each son. Then it is either official or not, and there is no risk of losing it.
If there are more wandering wasters among them, then there are unscrupulous sons in the family, and there is nothing to be done.
Or say: 'In this way, you will go out of the city without permission, and what is forbidden by the country!' 'However, the ancestral precept of the ministers and Changji, there is no prohibition on leaving the city, and it is also set up for those who have indulged lawlessness recently. Gou can do his own business, abide by the king's degree, if there is any misconduct, a little bit of punishment, although out of the city what harm!
Or say: 'The clan is guilty, and the punishment is not increased, and now the dereliction of duty and transaction anger will be punished?' What about all loans? 'The minister said that the clan does not add criminal responsibility, the original is not an ancient way, the lady has lust, so it is calm and not chaotic, and the law is heard. Today, the clan has had, and if it is not governed, it will lead to chaos.
And I heard that today's poor sect is lazy, subordinate to do everything, anonymous service, willing to beat Chu, if it is among the gentry, and they are all impeached by the public, the industry of the four people, and the law of the city officials, this duke is the right way, what a shame!
Second, discuss the heir. The king of the county has no heirs, and he is allowed to worship in the spring, and he is not allowed to help his brother and brother, and now affirms that the people are guarded together, but the prince can still be succeeded by his brother and nephew.
The ministers are foolish to say that the prince is crowned, and he is the second son of the Son of Heaven, so he admires it with his physical appearance, so that he does not make his brothers and his brothers hang in the air. Now the descendants successively, the world is rich, so it is needless to say, but to the lack of heirs, then the line has been extinct, that is, to this branch of the ancestral hall, so that the incense is not lost, and what is to make the brother and nephew inherit its lordship?
Please stop pushing one person to manage the affairs of the government from now on, and you must not pretend to ask for the reinstatement of the king.
Third, don't neglect your subordinates. The sixth grandson of the county king of the national system is found to be the sixth grandson, and the post of lieutenant of the country is awarded by the world, and the seventh generation is promoted from the prince, and the sixth generation is promoted from the county king, that is, from the lieutenant of the country.
The system of the ancestral temple is in the ancestors, and it is in the lowly family, and it is recorded and the ancestors are exempted, not inverted?
In the future, the lieutenant of Fengguo was entitled, and then passed down, without giving the title, only the first son born to a hundred taels of silver, so that it was the capital, and it was passed on to the fifth generation, and the rest were at their own convenience.
Fourth, the sovereign. The county lord and the county magistrate of the county, each with the difference between the father, etc., please seal, at the beginning there is no limit to the number of them, and now there are restrictions on the male seal, and there is no limit to the daughter of the prince, the daughter of the county king to stop the seal of the second, and the daughter of the general and lieutenant to seal one of them.
The lord's lord's Lu is the same as before, and the other is relocated to the guest of honor, and the official rank of the ministry decree is enough to be honored and favored, and the rice is exempted. Those who have not fulfilled the title of each of the above women are still given marriage funds for maintenance, and those who come from the prince will be given two hundred taels of silver, and those who are from the county king will be given one hundred taels, and those who are from the general will be eighty taels, and those who are from the lieutenant will be fifty taels.
In addition to the former, the marriage of the daughter of the clan is not discussed, and in addition to the fifty taels of silver given by each son-in-law in the future, there is no need to give another marriage money, and it is up to its own convenience.
Fifth, negotiate the cost of fraud. If it is found that the children of concubines, the children of unauthorized marriages, the children of the Emperor, and the people of a concubine, even if they are allowed to follow their own physiology, the rations can be dispensed. However, in the meantime, there may be old age and abandonment, and poor and unemployed, all of them will be reformed, and they may not be able to make a living. Except for the former, the sons born from henceforth should be taught as a lesson, and should be subject to their own physiology, and there is no need to give them rations.
In particular, it is important to discuss unauthorized marriage. After finding out the case of the clan wedding, the Ministry of Rites re-invited the marriage before the marriage. Nowadays, the most unauthorized marriages in various prefectures are not conspicuous, and their disadvantages are fake, and the people are different, and they are not willing to turn themselves in, but they must not be copied to the ministry, and they must not be violated by the law.
The husband is unmarried, and he does not give food, and all kinds of suffering, which cannot be overwhelmed.
Now, if the sects turn themselves in and make it clear that they are the sons of unauthorized marriages, they will be given this kind of rations according to the old practice, and the farmers and businessmen will still listen to themselves. Those who are born in the future are allowed to give names, no longer need to give rations, obey the order to follow the physiology, the Shu clan has a way to make a living, and the Tujia has a permanent plan. ”
As soon as this sparse entered the cabinet, from the time of Yuan Fu Shen to the new Dongge University scholar Wang Jiaping, the five pavilion elders all gasped in unison, looking at each other, and they were all silent for a long time.
Gao Pragmatic was indeed Gao Pragmatic, and he thought that he was just to "pick out" a sum of silver for the emperor to use as the military salary for the next battle against Tumen Khan.
Thinking about it, it is nothing more than continuing to reduce the number of clansmen, and at most it would be good to eliminate a group of "illegal clans" that are impostor and indiscriminate.
But I didn't want him to be so generous, and he actually wanted to directly break the iron rice bowl of the clan, so that at least eighty percent or maybe more than ninety percent of the people who occupied the clan would all fend for themselves!
Not only that, but he has another one that is even more daring: allowing the clan to become an official!
What is it? It's almost time to completely open the ban!
Ancestry? There is no such thing as an ancestral system in his mother's high pragmatic eyes!

PS: Gao Pragmatic has been on several occasions so far, and the content of each article is estimated to be enough to go down in history - at least in this book, because it is quite shocking.
