The strongest, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the rise of the Ming Dynasty 1646!

The officials who opposed the "land reform" in the court were all stunned when they heard this, and said in their hearts that when there was a conflict between the ruler and the courtiers, didn't they all have to play dumb riddles first, and try it out side by side? How can the Auxiliary Governor be so straightforward and merciless today?

Yuan Pengnian saw that he was "knocked" head-on before the momentum on his side got up, and he was in a hurry, and the whole set of opening remarks he had originally thought of was useless, so he hurriedly said: "Your Highness, the so-called 'people are vying to be the Huangzhuang Zhuang', that is just being forced by the eunuchs!" At present, although Huangzhuang has encircled a large area of land, there are no farm tools and seeds, and no one is willing to plant them. As for the people of Jiangbei who crossed to the south, they all came to me towards the Ming Dynasty and the emperor's grace, and they had nothing to do with the emperor. ”

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the speech officials were the best at telling right and wrong, pointing to the deer as horses, and Yuan Du Yushi, as the second-in-command of the commander, was even more proficient in this.

He first overshadowed the people's support for the Huangzhuang contract system in a few sentences, and then began to talk about it left and right, "As far as Weichen knows, in recent days, there have been 1670 recitals to impeach Feng Kang and even Zeng Jianzeng, which shows the anger of the court's Zhongliang against his bad deeds.

Feng, Zeng and others not only brought disaster to the people, but also bullied local officials a lot, and in less than ten days, they actually replaced eleven officials in Yuanzhou Prefecture, including four magistrates. This is simply not taking the court in your eyes! ”

Immediately, Yuan Du's henchmen answered: "Your Highness, what Lord Yuan said is extremely true!" That Zeng Jian held the blank documents of the first emperor's war emergency, and acted as a prestige in the local area, causing chaos in Yuanzhou Mansion, and the officials and the people were all concerned. The minister asked Zeng Jian to discuss the crimes of unauthorized power, personal gain, and domineering! ”

Hearing this, Zhu Linmiao signaled to Ma Wensheng, the new chief eunuch who was on duty for the first time behind him, who immediately beckoned several eunuchs on the side to move a large pile of music to the front of the hall, with three stacks as high as his chest.

"These are all the impeachments of Chang Caichen of Yizhi County, Lin Min of Wanzaizhi County and others. I haven't counted the specifics, but there should be more than 200 copies. Zhu Linmiao looked at Yuan Pengnian and the others, and sneered, "You might as well take a look for yourself." Acting as a prestige, abusing power, or engaging in personal gain in the local area? Hmph, I think that's exactly these guys. ”

These impeachments of Chang Caichen and others are exactly what Xu Erlu has been doing in recent days to contact officials from Gezhixue and the new science and technology scholars who have actually been awarded official positions. These people are either not interested in land, or they are newly promoted by Zhu Linmiao, and naturally only the auxiliary political king is the head of the horse.

In fact, Zhu Linwei also wanted to use this incident to confirm his "basic plate" in the DPRK. Anyone who impeached Chang Caichen and others with Xu Erlu can basically be determined to be "his own people", and the courtiers who impeached Zeng Jian naturally had different aspirations.

As soon as his words fell, Fang Yizhi came out and said: "Your Highness, the things contracted by the Huangzhuang are beneficial to all the people, and it is the only good way to stabilize the society. Chang Caichen and others ignored the imperial decree, arsoned with the murderers to intimidate the villagers, and obstructed the Huangzhuang land survey. ”

Immediately, a large number of courtiers stood up, "The local officials of Yuanzhou Mansion are unbearable, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate is unaware of this, which is a dereliction of duty." ”

"Chang Caichen and others disobey the yang and the yin, obstruct the decree, and should be investigated to the end......"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

Although most of these people are officials of the Ministry of Industry who have little power, or "rookies" who have just been promoted, the number is not inferior to Yuan Pengnian's side.

"You, your Ministry of Industry only knows copper charcoal and wood all day long, what kind of local political affairs do you know?" Yuan Pengnian immediately said angrily, "This Huangzhuang is fighting for land with the people, and the fertile land belongs to the royal family, and the people have no way to cultivate, which is really bad for my Ming foundation!" ”

As a speech official, he really did a good job of speaking, and without waiting for Xu Erlu, Fang Yizhi and others to refute, he immediately glared again and said loudly: "For the monarch, he should rule by doing nothing, scatter the land among the people, and let the people recuperate."

"The royal family should put the world first, but not be too selfish, and gather the world's acres of land as the private property of the Son of Heaven, and teach the people how to live? ! In this way, how can you serve the heart of the four seas and block the mouths of the people?!

"Zi said, 'From the Son of Heaven to the common people, one is based on self-cultivation.'" How can you be greedy for acres? Meng Yun, 'The people are precious, the community is secondary, and the monarch is light.' 'Now that Jiangnan has been decided, the borderless land should be distributed to the people, how can it be collected by the royal family?

"Zeng Jian, Feng Kang and others are ministers, they don't know how to admonish, they only know how to flatter, and the place is miserable, and the people complain......"

"Alright, stop talking nonsense!" Zhu Linmiao was very upset by his nonsense, and interrupted him unceremoniously, "You clearly know that although Huangzhuang is in the name of the Son of Heaven, the land is handed over to the people for cultivation, and ninety percent of the income goes into the treasury, but you still have to talk about 'fighting for land with the people'?"

"Divide the land among the people? Hmph, I have been ravaged for many years, the people have few savings, and the land is in the hands of the people, I am afraid that before it is hot, I will have to sell it to the officials and gentry and rich families at a low price!

"At present, people from all over the country are enthusiastically contracting Huangzhuang, and they are all happy to run to tell each other, but in your mouth, it has become 'miserable and complaining'? Do you think that I am in Nanjing, and I don't know anything about the local situation, so I can't let you deceive me?! ”

Yuan Pengnian was startled, and knelt on the ground with weak legs, "The minister doesn't dare, it's just, it's just ......"

Seeing this, Yan Qiheng hurriedly went out to rescue the scene, "Your Royal Highness, the whole world is not the king's land, so it is natural for the fields to be returned to the Huangzhuang." It's just that the tax set by this Huangzhuang is very low, and the grain rent of the whole world will fall accordingly, so that the household tax will be reduced. ”

Yuan Pengnian heard the words as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, and immediately answered: "Yes, yes!" His Royal Highness had previously ordered the state capitals that cultivated more imperial estates to reduce their taxes by forty percent, and even put on silver coins. I am confronting the Yangtze River with the thieves, and if the treasury is empty, I will be defeated! The ministers are all selfless, and everything they say is for the sake of the court's taxes, and I hope His Royal Highness will see it! ”

"Taxes?" Zhu Linmiao smiled coldly, "You don't pay taxes, no matter how high the land rent is, it is also borne by the people at the bottom, so you are happy to collect more." But you don't have to worry about taxes, I can tell you that even if the tax is set at a low level, the money and grain collected will be more than in previous years. ”

As far as he said this, the courtiers below understood that in the past, a large amount of land was attached to the names of officials and gentry, and the court could not collect a penny of taxes for this. At present, the land has been divided by Huangzhuang, although only twenty or thirty catties per mu are collected, but compared to not being able to collect at all, the treasury will definitely be much fuller than before.

Yuan Pengnian saw that he was cold again, and couldn't help but secretly panic, today's court will make such a big battle by itself, if it still can't stop the matter of Huangzhuang, then this matter will be closed even if the coffin is closed, and his prestige will be greatly affected.

He was in his heart, and it seemed that he could only sacrifice the last move, so he gritted his teeth and said: "Your Highness, the new move of the Huangzhuang is new, and it is not yet known whether the future will be harmful or beneficial." However, this has been shown by the heavens!

"The minister heard that the dark clouds on the river north of Yingtianfu have been shrouded recently, and they have not dispersed for several days. I also heard that someone in the upper reaches of the Longjiang River in Yuanzhou Mansion picked up a stone horse with a missing foot, and thousands of birds and birds on the mountain threw themselves into the mountain fire. All these refer to the chaos out of Yingtianfu, but in Yuanzhou, which is the matter of Huangzhuang.

"This is a sign from heaven, the affairs of the Huangzhuang are ominous, if you force it, it will lead to a catastrophe!"

Seeing that Lord Yuan had found a "breakthrough", the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate also followed suit, "The minister also heard that the Yuanzhou Mansion is now drawing water from black fish, and the main people are not appeased......

"Your Highness, there is a bad omen in the sky, don't do it again......"

"The minister thinks that the will of heaven cannot be violated, and it should be the end of the emperor's move!"

"The minister also thought it was ......"

It's ineffective to mess around, so it's a feudal superstition? Zhu Linmiao was almost angry, and Yuan Pengnian and others, who were white-eyed and full of "grief and indignation", waved their hands and said, "Scatter the dynasty." ”

"Can't disperse!" Yuan Du Yushi opened his arms and shouted, "If you go against the sky, the society is in danger!" The emperor is not stopped, the world is restless! ”

Zhu Jizuo saw that the auxiliary king was resolute, and he didn't talk to the courtiers at all, and he was ready to give up resistance, and at this time, seeing that Yuan Pengnian was still insisting, he immediately glanced at the ministers, and the courtiers who were just about to turn around suddenly stopped again.

"The minister knows that he will anger His Royal Highness, but for my great concern, the minister will not hesitate to fight for the court!" Yuan Pengnian said in a loud voice, "Today's Huangzhuang matter is not over, everyone should not leave!" ”

Zhu Linmiao saw his dead face, and couldn't help but say angrily: "I originally wanted to save some face for you, but I had to let me break my words?"

"You're still 'worried about Da Ming', huh?! Who doesn't know that little bit of caution? The rent and tax of Huangzhuang are low, and the rent of a large number of fields and properties purchased by you must be reduced together, otherwise it will be difficult to recruit tenants to cultivate, and it is estimated that you can get nearly 100 taels of silver a year. In addition, the idle land has been transferred to the Imperial Village, and the amount of land available for you to accumulate has been greatly reduced, and it will inevitably cost more to buy land.

"For the sake of this little selfish interest, you can ignore the plans of the imperial court, and would rather millions or tens of millions of displaced people continue to cultivate without land, but also privately connect with each other to force each other in the court and disrupt the government!

"I also tell you that the Huangzhuang public land is the foundation of the stability of food and clothing for ordinary people in the Ming Dynasty, and there is no room for giving up halfway! It's all gone! ”

As soon as he said this, Yuan Pengnian couldn't give up, otherwise it would not be tantamount to admitting that he was "disregarding the country's interests for personal gain".

"The minister is absolutely selfless!" Yuan Pengnian still stretched out his hand to stop the surrounding courtiers, "Everyone join me in admonishing His Highness and doing his courtier's loyalty!" ”

Zhu Linmiao looked at him coldly, "Give you one last chance, quickly retreat!" ”

Yuan Pengnian didn't hear it, but still stiffened his neck and said: "Your Highness, please end the emperor's move!" ”

"Sprinkle is it, isn't it?" Zhu Linmiao then turned his head to Ma Wensheng and said, "Pass the court staff!" ”

Ma Wensheng hurriedly whispered when he heard this: "Your Highness, I'm afraid this Yuan Pengnian is looking forward to the court staff, can you 'fulfill' him." ”

Zhu Linmiao knew that these civil officials in the Ming Dynasty who "shook M" regarded the court rod as a glorious symbol of "daring to offend the face and giving direct advice" and "not afraid of power". Usually the person who has been spanked by the court staff will be famous for a while, and the audience will respect him. Zhao Yongxian, a servant of the Wanli Dynasty, after eating the court staff, actually dried the meat that was beaten on his buttocks, and often showed off to the people who visited the palace.

He sneered and shook his head and said: "Just do it, you just watch, since Yuan Pengnian onwards, everyone will be ashamed of the court staff!" ”

Ma Wensheng didn't expect that he would encounter such an "exciting" scene for the first time on duty, so he hurriedly responded with "yes", recalled the process of the court staff in his heart, hurriedly entered the apse to draw up a court staff will, and held it for Zhu Linmiao to sign and seal. Then the eunuch took the holy decree to the criminal department and gave it a seal for use in the matter.
