Near noon, the little emperor Zhu Houxi was dressed as a son-in-law, wearing a festive melon skin hat, and carrying a carp lamp into the gate of Xu's mansion, and asked with a smile: "Dabao, Xu Jin and Sister Xiaowan are in the mansion, right?" ”

Dabao replied: "Back to Zhu Gongzi, the lady has not returned to Guangji Temple to offer incense, but the master is in the study." ”

Zhu Houxi immediately carried the carp lantern and went straight to the study, but met Xu Jin in the middle courtyard.

When Zhu Houxi saw Xu Jin, he immediately smiled triumphantly: "The willow tops on the moon, people are about after dusk." Xu Qing, are you satisfied with the surprise I gave you? ”

Xu Jin couldn't cry or laugh, and really wanted to rush up and kick this kid's ass a few times, but when he saw the few masters who were following far behind, he quickly dispelled this idea, and said with a wry smile: "The minister can be miserable by the emperor this time." ”

Zhu Houxi couldn't help but wonder: "Why did Xu Qing say this, could it be that the Fei family disagrees?" ”

It's okay not to agree, the key is that people agree, Xu Jin is still entangled in how to explain it to Xiaowan and Ruyi, and said angrily: "That's not true." ”

Zhu Houxi smiled when he heard this: "Isn't this over, I know that Sister Jixiang secretly likes you, and this thing will definitely come to pass." Haha, don't think so much, wait for the marriage envoy to choose a good beauty for me, and then our monarch and minister will choose a day to get married...... Phew, it's our monarch and minister who each choose a day to get married...... It's not right, it should be, our monarch and minister got married on the same day.

I have a queen and two concubines, and you have a wife and two concubines, this is called being blessed and together, ha, get up, and go with me to the street to see the lanterns. ”

Xu Jin couldn't help laughing, this kid is fifteen years old this year, if he is old enough to go to the second year of secondary school in the future life, the second middle school boy of the nun sister!

The east wind blooms thousands of trees at night, and blows down, and the stars are like rain. BMW carved cars are full of fragrance. The sound of the phoenix flute moves, the light of the jade pot turns, and the fish and dragon dance all night......

On the night of the Shangyuan Festival in the first year of Jiajing, the fire trees and silver flowers in the city of Beijing are bright, and the lights are bright, and people play all night. The crowds on Chang'an Street were surging, the new monarch Jiajing, the Empress Dowager Zhang, the Empress Dowager Jiang of Xingguo, and a group of ministers climbed the city tower to watch the fireworks and enjoy with the people.

After the Yuanxiao Festival, the year was over, the officials of the Ming Dynasty returned to work in the official offices, and Xu Jin also began to report to the Ministry of War.

Originally, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the marriage of Xu Jin and the two girls of the Fei family was still the focus of discussion in the city, but after only one day, people's attention shifted to two other major events.

The first thing was the "Qing Grange", an initiative involving a wide range of interests, which was miraculously passed, and it is said that the main reason was that the emperor pushed and led by example, taking the lead in clearing the Huangzhuang and returning the land to the people for cultivation.

However, the detailed rules of the "Qingtianzhuang" finally agreed by the cabinet added a premise: the land that was annexed during the Zhengde period and was annexed by improper means will be cleared, and the legally purchased land can continue to be retained.

As a result, the strength of the "Qing Grange" was naturally greatly reduced, and it also gave the land annexers a loophole to exploit. For example, forging documents for the sale and purchase of land, and bribing off the household officials in charge of investigations, etc. In the end, the role of "Kiyo Gago" must have been greatly reduced.

Of course, this also has the advantage that the resistance encountered will be reduced a lot. After all, it is just to clear the land annexed since the Zhengde Dynasty, and those nobles and nobles can still accept it by gritting their teeth, so even the emperor has taken the lead, and cutting some meat should be given face to the emperor.

Regarding the effect of the final implementation of "Qingtianzhuang", Xu Jin is really not very optimistic. For example, in the current republic, the central government has allocated a sum of money, and after layers of interception, it has finally fallen to the grassroots level, and it is good to have three achievements left.

Top-down reform, if there is no effective supervision, everything is in vain, after all, most officials are vested interests, expect them not to blow the black whistle, dream!

Of course, no matter what, the resolution of "Qingtianzhuang" was passed, and once the edict was promulgated, and then distributed to all parts of the country through the post road and fast horses, the people of the entire Ming Dynasty were all rejoicing, kowtowing to the north to thank the Holy Grace, and at the same time singing praises to Jing'anbo Xu Jin, because "Qingtianzhuang" was put forward by Jing'anbo Xu Jin under pressure from all sides.

The second thing that attracted the attention of the whole capital was the "triage of the three law divisions", in which a triage team composed of the Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate began to interrogate a number of convicts in Shandong Province on the 16th day of the first lunar month.

Due to the nature of the retrial, the case file, confessions, and human and material evidence were all ready-made, so it only took five days for the "triage of the three legal divisions" to end, and the verdict was pronounced in court.

Luo Xiang, the eunuch of Shandong Town, stole and sold official grain, murdered Qincha, collaborated with enemies and thieves, oppressed and killed the people, forcibly occupied people's land, and raised private soldiers...... The crimes were numerous and difficult to write, and he was finally sentenced to death by Ling Chi, punished by the clan, and confiscated his family property.

Shandong Province left and right Bu Zhengshi and others participated in the theft and sale of official food, collaborating with the enemy and thieves, and finally were sentenced to be beheaded, confiscated family property, and the male family members were assigned to the army, and the women were not registered as teachers.

In addition, most of the local officials in Shandong who participated in the theft and sale of official grain were sentenced to have their homes raided and killed, and only a few were spared death, and the final outcome was to be sent to the army.

After the "triage of the three law divisions", another major event occurred in the officialdom, and the civilian-official group headed by Yang Tinghe, the first assistant of the cabinet, scolded Luo Xiang, the eunuch of the town guard in Shandong, and violently criticized the system of "town guard middle officials", and demanded that the emperor lay off all the town guard eunuchs throughout the country.

Xu Jin had already expected this, the civil official group had purged all the eunuchs in power in the palace, and the next step was naturally to take action against the local eunuch oligarchs, this time there was Luo Xiang, the target sent to the door, how could the civil official group let go of such a good opportunity. This is the rhythm that wants to completely smash the eunuch group!

The little emperor Zhu Houxi has been sitting on the throne for more than half a year, and he is no longer the prince who just ascended the throne when he first ascended the throne, trembling in everything he does, and is like a prince of the vassal on thin ice. This kid obviously realized that the dominance of civil officials was not a good thing for him, so he left all the proposals for the abolition of the town guard lieutenant in the middle.

When the little emperor and the ministers were at a stalemate, the four elders of the cabinet jointly entered the palace to ask to see the emperor, but the next day the emperor approved the minister's recital and agreed to dismiss the eunuchs in various places.

At the same time, another piece of news also spread in the officialdom, the emperor ordered Jing Anbo Xu Jin to supervise the manufacture of a new type of firearm, the flintlock pistol, and the household department allocated all the expenses and materials. In order to cooperate with the construction of flintlock pistols, the emperor also set up a 500 battalion to be responsible for testing and practicing new firearms, and this 500 battalion will be commanded by Jing Anbo Xu Jin.

The old oilmen who are mixed with officialdom can naturally see that this is the result of an agreement reached between the emperor and the four elders of the cabinet, tsk, Jing Anbo is deeply favored, and he has just been added to the rank of knight, and he was immediately ordered to supervise the manufacture of new firearms, although there are only 500 people under his command, but that is also military power!

Everyone seems to see that a new star in officialdom is rising.
