Chapter 298: The Eight Masters Party Falls

Yongzheng's face was pale, looking at the twists and turns that had been piled up into a hill in front of him, he deeply felt the pressure from within the Qing court, which originated from the fall of Jiangning, and was rapidly fermented after the defeat in the Battle of Kinmen Island, and finally turned into a knife that stabbed Yongzheng.

"Please stop the war in the northwest, negotiate peace with Luobzang Danjin, and use Yunyu to fight for the commander to invade the south of the Yangtze River!"

These three requirements in the excerpt are knives, they are not the nonsense submitted by those pedantic Hanchen, but the excerpts presented within the Eight Banners, more precisely, the major banner owners and the Eight Masters are attacking Yongzheng!

After experiencing all kinds of turmoil after Yongzheng ascended the throne, these people endured themselves, but now they finally found an opportunity, taking the opportunity of Jiangnan being captured, setting off the restlessness within the Eight Banners, in order to attack Yongzheng's prestige, so as to find a way out for themselves.

Prince Lian Yunxi, Prince Yi Yunxiang, Zhang Tingyu, Long Keduo and other princes and ministers and ministers of various ministries knelt on the ground, bowing their heads and being silent, as if each had their own thoughts.

"Ministers, don't you have anything to say?" Yongzheng glanced around at the ministers kneeling on the ground.

Prince Yi Yunxiang had a little resentment on his face, and said loudly: "Emperor Qiqi, the slave thinks that these twists and turns are really not worth refuting, my Qing Dynasty is now in a difficult and dangerous situation, and I should judge the situation. ”

"What's more, General Nian and General Yue's troops have arrived at Batang, Litang, Huangshengguan and other places, plus Fu Ning'an also led the army to garrison Turpan and Gasbo, essentially cutting off the rebels' road to Tibet, Luobzang Danjin is already surrounded by our army, seeing that he has completed his work in one battle, how can he negotiate peace?"

Speaking of this, Yun Xiang glared at Yun Xi angrily, this time the main people who promoted the peace were the people in the Eight Masters Party, what ideas they played, others may not understand, but his old thirteen heart was clear.

Yun Yu was expressionless, and just said softly: "Emperor Qi, what Prince Yi said is certainly reasonable, but it also ignores the key to my current Qing Dynasty. The war in the northwest has continued from the time of the imperial examination to the present, and the investment of decades before and after naturally cannot be wasted. But at that time, my Qing Dynasty was rich all over the world, and with the power of the whole world, I could naturally support my Qing Dynasty to continue the war in the northwest, but now that Jiangnan has been lost, Chu Wei is watching from the side, and the war in the northwest has to be stopped. ”

A trace of anger flashed in Yongzheng's eyes, he could naturally understand the meaning of Yun Xi's words, even the original emperor Ama had not been able to completely clean up the northwest, and now how can you be able to clean up the enemy in the northwest? The meaning of the words is naturally not optimistic about his Yongzheng decision.

Zhang Tingyu was silent, and the military department had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "Prince Lian, now the situation in Jiangnan is difficult to change, Manbao and Yang Zongren only have tens of thousands of green battalion soldiers left in Fujian and Zhejiang, plus tens of thousands of regimental training, under the attack of Chu and Zhu Wei, Jiangnan is really difficult to ....."

Yun Yu just sighed leisurely, and said meaningfully: "If the monarch and the ministers are of the same heart, use their lives up and down, and take the fourteenth brother as the commander to conquer Jiangnan, they will naturally be able to keep it." ”

These words are almost a blatant accusation that Yongzheng did not really want to keep Jiangnan, but chose a blindly lax attitude, which led to the situation in Jiangnan being out of control.

"Your Majesty, for the sake of my Qing Dynasty, the minions have the courage to stop the war in the northwest, and use Yunyu as the commander to attack the south of the Yangtze River!"

Yun Yu knelt down, his face was as firm as iron, no matter how much intrigue and intrigue there was, no matter how much intrigue there was, it would inevitably be face-to-face at this moment after all. Perhaps, this scene is also what he wants to see.

Soon, some of the ministers of the Eight Masters Party and several banner owners of the Eight Banners also came out and knelt down, they didn't look at each other, but their movements seemed to be very tacit, but they seemed to have rehearsed many times.

"Please ask the emperor to stop the war in the northwest and use Yunyu to fight the Jiangnan army!"

"Please also ask the emperor to think twice, the land south of the Qing River must not be abandoned......"

"Your Majesty, the minions are willing to lead the army to conquer Jiangnan and regain the homeland of Jiangnan!"

For a while, the hall became silent, and the ministers naturally understood that the current dispute would be the first major political dispute in the new dynasty, and the Eight Masters Party, which was deeply rooted in the government and the opposition, naturally would not wait to be uprooted by Yongzheng, and they began to choose to fight back.

Looking at these ministers and banner owners who jumped out, a sneer finally appeared on Yongzheng's face, the anger in his heart has disappeared without a trace, jump out, jump out, I can better go and kill you all!

What I want to clean up is the world, not a corner of the south of the Yangtze River, and since you have all jumped out, I am no longer polite!

"When the emperor was in power, he often taught me that the form of the world is better than the chessboard, and we must not care about the gains and losses of one son and one place, if we care about one place in the south of the Yangtze River, the Qing Dynasty will lose the whole world!"

"I am now facing such a situation in the Qing Dynasty, the key is inside and not outside, if it weren't for the greed of the governor of Huguang Manpi, how could it cause the rebellion of Chu? The reasons for this should also be reflected. If this internal disadvantage is not eliminated, even if Jiangnan is leveled and Huguang is leveled, the old things will be repeated in the future! ”

Yongzheng mentioned the old things naturally have another deep meaning, although the Man Pi has been killed in battle, but he was a member of the Eight Masters Party at the beginning, at that time Yongzheng also gave Kangxi a fold to severely punish Man Pi, but was stopped by the face-loving Kangxi, and it was over, and now the Man Pi is mentioned again, naturally it is necessary to make the things inside clear and clear, and the spearhead is naturally the Eight Masters Party people in the audience.

"If it is for the sake of the Qing Dynasty, I will not blame you, but if you are waiting for some other ideas, even if I spare you, the ancestors of the Qing Dynasty will not let you go!"

Yongzheng glanced at the ministers, and finally fixed on Prince Lian Yunxi, and this scene was naturally seen by the ministers.

Prince Lian, it is estimated that it is going to be planted.

"I think that if Prince Lian is willing to work hard, all the affairs of the ministry will be excellent. In terms of his talent and integrity, there is no one among the ministers who is right, but he can be reasonable, and I cherish it very much. It's a pity that the sinister tricks of his mind are no match for the ministers, and I can't condone them......"

"The imperial examination also said back then: 'The righteousness of the Spring and Autumn Period, people and ministers have no generals, and the generals will be punished.'" How can a great treasure be a vain watcher? Yinxu is soft and treacherous, and has great ambitions, which I know very well. Now Yun Xi still refuses to repent, I really can't bear it anymore, and I temporarily hand it over to the Zongren Mansion. ”

After all, it was the prince's brother, Yongzheng didn't want to lose his dignity, and in the end it was a decision to hand over the Zongren Mansion Office, but Yun Xi, who was kneeling on the ground, was already paralyzed, he exhaled heavily, and glanced around at the Eight Banners Princes and Ministers behind him, only to see that the banner owners who originally supported him were all indifferent at this time, and he finally understood.

"Minion Leader Thanksgiving."

Tears flowed down Yun Xu's face, and after receiving the will, the spirit of the whole person completely collapsed.

The next day, Yongzheng once again issued an edict, sending Wu Erzhan, Seltu, Sunu, Orodai and others to live in Shengjing and seize the leadership of his subordinates, saying: "In the past, Yi's father was convicted of the imperial examination, degraded his prince's lordship, and Yi and other grievances were wantonly slandered." "The princes of Yi, etc., poured out each other, and trapped the heirs of Yizong to death." Together with Sunu's son Le Shiheng, he was dismissed and sent to Xining.

A few days later, Yongzheng once again sent a message to the kings and ministers, saying: Before the death of the Holy Ancestor, because of Yun Yu's various vain behaviors, the emperor was indignant in his twilight years, "the body is thin, and the blood and qi are exhausted", Yi and others have no love heart, and still "consolidate the party aid, hoping to get lucky", after I ascended the throne, I will be the prince of Yun Yuyou, and let him be the prime minister. All affairs, deliberately ruined, do not do things personally, respectfully and hastily pay others.

With such a combination of punches, it can be regarded as completely uprooting the Eight Masters, and even the third son of the emperor, Hongshi, who is close to Yunxi, was also taken aback in this matter. The entire Eight Masters Party has completely disappeared, and all the ministers have already determined a fact, Xinjun is really not a joke, everyone should hurry up and cooperate.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Emperor Yongzheng once again issued an edict on the matter of the Eight Masters Party, and personally wrote a "Treatise on the Imperial Friends", which can be regarded as the last nail for the Eight Masters Party.

"The husband is reckless and selfish, and he is the way? The so-called Tao of cultivation is also the way of the villain... The wind of friends is irreversible to the extreme, and the practical cultivation level is also powerful. If I do this today, I will punish him for the sin of confusing the world. ”

Ning Yu was holding this "Theory of the Imperial Friends", but there was a little surprise on his face, this Yong Laosi was really ruthless, and it was a little weird.......

In fact, before Yongzheng's "Theory of the Imperial Friends", Ouyang Xiu had also written a "Theory of Friends", but the theory of friends at that time was not a derogatory term, and he also put forward the saying that a gentleman has friends, and villains have no friends.

Strictly speaking, this kind of thinking is actually very common, after all, the emperor is not afraid that no one will do things, and the most afraid that the people below will be connected to do things, and the emperor can better control the authority with his friends. But now on Yongzheng's body, it is not the case, in his opinion, there will be a struggle if there is a friend party in this world, and if there is a struggle, it will affect the work, so the friend party is very bad.

Li Fu has a deep understanding of Kangxi, but his understanding of this fourth child is relatively shallow, he shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Everyone in the world knows that Prince Yong is down-to-earth, so this situation is very normal. ”

Ning Yu was a little distressed and said: "It's normal to have friends in this world, even my Fu Han army is divided into friends, after all, the people below will inevitably get together." If the emperor is in charge of everything, I am afraid that the world will also be chaotic. ”

Speaking of this time, Ning Yu admired these model worker emperors, from Hongwu to Yongzheng, both of them are the kind of sleepless style, eager to grasp everything in their own hands, so what kind of friends do you want, everyone listens to their own good.

Of course, not everyone can learn from these two, Zhu Yuanzhang started his own business to win the world, when he was young, his body was relatively strong, and he could afford such a large workload, but Yongzheng is not necessarily, Ning Yu knew that he died early in the later life, but whether he died of exhaustion or took medicine to death, he doesn't remember it very clearly.

Li Fu smiled slightly, but took out a fold from his arms, handed it to Ning Yu, and said in a low voice: "The "Jiangnan Industrial and Commercial Administration Regulations" has been drafted at present, and I still ask the Metropolitan Governor to take a look at it. ”

In Ning Yu's mind, he was preparing to test his new business regulations with Jiangning, which had been defeated at present, in order to demonstrate his theory, and as long as he achieved certain results in Jiangnan, then he could be fully popularized in the current Fu Han army.

This time, the "Jiangnan Industrial and Commercial Administration Regulations" is said to be aimed at industry and commerce, but it is also mixed with a lot of private goods, which can be said to be a reform of the status quo in essence.

In this reform, the first point of Ning Yu is to deny the traditional theory of "Shinong Industry and Commerce", but to establish a new household registration system, which breaks the traditional hereditary occupation and cancels the imbalance between the people.

This step is actually very difficult, even within the Fu Han Army, there are many people who think that those mud legs are not the same kind of people as them, and some people think that the merchants should die, even if they don't die, they should be taxed heavily, of course, these ideas are naturally not mainstream, but it is very difficult to correct them.

Ning Yu didn't expect this new concept to be popularized one day, so it was only briefly mentioned in the "Jiangnan Business Administration Regulations", and the key point was mainly to untie industry and commerce, so that they could let go of their hands and feet.

In addition, Ningyu also formally established the monopoly system of salt and iron, all salt and iron resources in the territory of the Fu Han Army were collected as official camps, and private individuals were prohibited from participating in the operation and trading, especially in order to control the resources in the territory will not flow out, especially not to the hands of the Qing court, and also specially formulated the management methods for the transaction of strategic materials, in short, all the private gentry want to trade strategic materials, in addition to reporting to the Fu Han army, they can only choose smuggling.

Of course, in the "Jiangnan Industrial and Commercial Administration Regulations", there is also an adjustment of taxation, that is, on the basis of the original commercial tax, mining tax and salt tax, it is readjusted to industrial and commercial tax, which is much heavier than the previous commercial tax, but from another point of view, it has effectively changed the burden on the merchants of this era.

Because in the "Jiangnan Industry and Commerce Regulations", all checkpoints in the territory of the Fuhan Army have been completely abolished, and there will be no more the situation in the past where taxes will be recharged every time they go to a place, which can be called the greatest gospel for merchants.
