Qin Jin specially found Fifth Qi and discussed with him the specific measures of the prisoner Shibian. As far as the actual situation is concerned, Fifth Qi agrees with this method, but also suggests that Qin Jin not disclose these news for the time being.

"Why is that?"

Qin Jin didn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in the stomach of Fifth Qi, so he asked with a smile.

"To tell you the truth, the resistance of Qingzhang land is far greater than imagined, the powerful families not only own a large amount of land, but also hide a large amount of land, and many bankrupt families attached to these lands have also become black households that are not in the imperial court register, and at present, less than 30% of the land in Gyeonggi has been inventoried, but the amount of hidden land found is unbelievably large!"

Qin Jin has been focusing on the transfer of the new army these days, after the Shenwu army recovered Chang'an, has been training the new army, most of the former forbidden army was dismissed, re-recruited by the registered good family, these 50,000 people after half a year of training, has been vaguely formed, originally planned to be transferred to Luoyang, in order to deter the undercurrent surging in Jiangnan and other places. Now that the situation in Hedong is tight, they can only immediately change their plans and transfer them to Hedong.

After fully learning the lessons of An Lushan's rebellion, Qin and Jin insisted that the border town commanders could not recruit troops locally, and that the grain and straw must be directly controlled by the ministers of the imperial court, and the power was also restricted. It is a good thing for the local marshals and the imperial court.

However, if all the soldiers of the imperial court were from Guanzhong, it was obviously unrealistic. For this problem, Xia Yuanji once put forward a very practical suggestion.

In the past, when the government soldiers were prevalent, there would be good families from other provinces in turn, but now it can also be concocted in the same way, and the recruits will be assigned to the rents of the provinces.

The most critical factor in the decline of the government military system is that the powerful clan has annexed a large amount of land, so that there are fewer and fewer good families attached to Yongye Tian, which indirectly leads to the gradual depletion of the government soldiers.

The problem of land annexation is not only annexation, but also the powerful clan in the process of annexation, often concealing the land and the population attached to the land, so these lands and people become black lands and black households that are not registered in the imperial court register.

Naturally, the black land acquired by these powerful people does not have to pay rent to the imperial court. As for the ratio of black land to black households, I am afraid that it was not low when Li Longji was in power, but after the war, I am afraid that it is only high now.

Qin Jin asked:

"It is estimated that the land and population of Gyeonggi that are not on the register account for what percent?"

Fifth Qi stretched out three fingers.

"Sancheng?"

Qin Jin was taken aback, he only thought that it was not a good thing for the land to be too concentrated in the hands of Haoqiang and the temple, but he didn't expect that the more serious problem was far ahead.

"This is still a conservative estimate, how many percent of the specifics, and it will all have to be cleared before there can be definite data!"

As he spoke, the fifth Qi snorted continuously.

"In addition to the Haoqiang clan, the problems of the Buddhist temples are also far more serious than imagined, and they all say that the Buddhist sect is a quiet place, and it is all bullshit! Taking advantage of the war and chaos, they annexed land at a low price to conceal the population, and the pickled things done by the Haoqiang clan, they are all the same! There are also officials at all levels who are responsible for the accomplices, from Jingzhao Mansion to various counties and counties, and I am afraid that there are not a few officials involved in the case. ”

This is by no means a few but a general reference, Fifth Qi did not dare to tell the truth, as far as he knows now, but all the people with power in their hands, I am afraid that none of them are clean.

What Fifth Qi wants to know now is Qin Jin's true thoughts, if he wants to completely clear the land, whether even those officials involved in the case have dug out deeply, if there are no silverfish in the court, the Tang Dynasty may not be so rotten.

From the words of the fifth Qi, Qin Jin could hear his voice. He has always adhered to the principle that when the water is clear, there are no fish, and when it comes to punishing the illegal things of officials, he only grasps typical examples and does not expand the scope of the crackdown. But after half a year of actual rule, he was a little disappointed, because the current Tang Dynasty has almost reached the point where there are no officials and no greed.

When Li Longji was in power, he did not care about the corruption of officials for personal gain, and as long as they did not threaten the imperial power, other problems could be regarded as innocuous and minor problems. But it is this attitude that makes the government and the opposition up and down, people float in things, and the seemingly prosperous Tang Dynasty government has become a big tree that has been hollowed out by thousands of silverfish, and once there is a slight influence of external forces, this century-old tree is in danger of overturning at any time.

In the final analysis, this silverfish has reached the point where it has to be cured and cannot be cured. Why? Because silverfish have become a part of the towering tree of the Tang Dynasty, occupying almost all of its trunk, and if the insects are removed, the tree may be finished.

Qin Jin's headache is here, and the officials of the Poor Punishment and Traitor Section will never be able to do it. After thinking for a long time, he said:

"You have to eat one bite at a time, if all the officials are cleaned up, who else can the court expect to run errand......s?

This is also the result that Fifth Qi hopes to see, the impact surface will be reduced, and the resistance will not be too great when he acts. If the local officials are also included in the scope of the attack, I am afraid that the land will be difficult to clear and even fail.

However, he still hoped that Qin Jin could go further and give those local officials a reassurance.

"The subordinate has a suggestion that is not very mature, I don't know ...... doctor"

"Listen to it, it's better to work together than to be foolish alone!"

"The officials were shrunk by the trend of rectification, and the people were panicked and did not dare to do anything, and in the long run, good things became bad things......

"You mean to suspend the rectification of the imperial court?"

"No, no, no, the atmosphere cannot be rectified at any time, but the scope of rectification, such as time, may be able to draw a boundary......"

Rectifying the atmosphere is a means for Xia Yuanji to crack down on dissidents, Qin Jin acquiesced because he naturally felt that this was beneficial to consolidating his position, and now it was far from the point where Ma Fang Nanshan was to be completely eliminated, and if he wanted to completely eliminate the opposition forces, it would not be able to succeed overnight, and it would take at least three and five years of work.

However, the scope of the impact is not small, and there are indeed not a few officials who have been implicated in beating rabbits, and many of them have been implicated in old cases. Since the existing ranks of officials cannot be completely cleaned up, it is better to start drawing a line on the first day of the fourth year of Zhide, and even if the previous problems are discovered, they are not to blame in the past, and if there are any problems in the future, they will be severely punished!

This is exactly what the Fifth Qi wants, the safety of the officials is guaranteed, and there is much less resistance to the land he has carried out.

"Okay, this is a good idea, the birthday of the Son of Heaven is coming soon, and it is just an opportunity to take this opportunity to amnesty the world......"

"Doctor Qin's Mingjian!"

Amnesty is an almighty excuse, in the past, the Son of Heaven would grant amnesty to the world almost every three or two years, but it was all aimed at officials and people who had already committed adultery. This time, however, it is against the uninitiated sins of the past.

How to conceive the edict of amnesty is a very deep science, and it can neither be too obvious to show the pertinence, nor can it be said that the clouds and mountains are foggy, and it is difficult to frame the specific scope...... Of course, these special people who have their own political affairs hall don't need Qin Jin to worry about it.

Qin Jin glanced at the fifth Qi, and he felt more and more that although this person's character was average, he was a very capable minister of governing the world, and he could grasp the proportions well in the political struggle, and he could complete the set tasks very well, and more importantly, this person's desire to govern was very strong, and many things could be thought of in front of him almost without explanation.

For example, Xia Yuanji, the head of the prime minister, is a little too conservative compared with Fifth Qi, more obedient than innovative.

However, the prime minister in the political hall has such a configuration with very different personalities, which is a good thing on the whole. Xia Yuanji's qualifications and rank are higher than those of the Fifth Qi, and he is the mentor of the Fifth Qi, so even if the Fifth Qi has great political ambitions, he must maintain enough respect for Xia Yuanji.

"Tomorrow, I will go to the Qingzhang site with you to inspect!"

"It's great that the doctor can go, and it also allows the local officials to see the determination of the imperial court to clear the land!"

Qin Jin nodded and said in a deep voice:

"The dissatisfaction of the family is suppressed by the imperial court, but the problem of Buddhist temples is much more complicated, they often have a large number of pilgrims and believers, and if they are used by people with ill intentions, fan the flames, and maybe cause a civil uprising. Be prepared for this!"

In fact, Wu Qi has long taken precautions against this, just three days ago, he also specially summoned the heads of several major Buddhist temples in Gyeonggi to explain the situation, which is naturally indispensable coercion and temptation, after all, it is to rob the meat of people's mouths, even if the great master who believes in the Buddha will not stand on the dry shore and watch.

Early the next morning, Qin Jin and the Fifth Qi went out of the city to inspect the south of the city, and the people they saw along the way were endless, and they went to the south to worship.

This situation is not common, ask passers-by to learn that today is the annual incense meeting of Katori Temple, the people of Chang'an have gone through hardships and hardships, naturally yearning for the prosperity and peace of the past, out of dissatisfaction with the reality, and can not do anything, naturally put their hopes on the gods and Buddhas. Not only the followers of the Buddha, but also the religion in Chang'an City, the Nestorian Religion from the West or various unnamed religions, its followers are far more than before.

In less than half an hour, the number of people heading south has reached tens of thousands. In normal times, Qin Jin would not have any ideas, but at this time, it was a critical juncture for the land of Qingzhang, so he was worried that there would be branches.

Fifth Qi is also worried, for fear that after the people gather, there will be people with ill intentions who will take the opportunity to cause chaos. However, after discussing with Qin Jin, Qin Jin still felt that there was no need to restrict the freedom of the people, so he notified Jingzhao Mansion and sent additional manpower to take strict precautions.
