Chapter 240: The New Emperor's New Deal
After the deposed king of Zhou, the spearhead of cutting the feudal domain was immediately pointed at Zhu Bai, who was both civil and military, and talented.
Zhu Bai's ability is second only to Zhu Di, and after he arrived in Jingzhou, the domain of Jingzhou, he recruited talents, and the door was full.
He was diligent in government and loved the people, and promulgated many administrative measures that were conducive to the development of Jingzhou and the stability of the people, and was loved by the local people.
In order to deal with Zhu Bai, the four ministers took great pains. The imperial court sent a large number of spies to Jingzhou to find out Zhu Bai's mistakes, but they never returned.
Gu ordered the minister to abandon the gentleman's high style and brightness for the emperor, and secretly found someone to falsely accuse Zhu Bai of privately printing silver tickets, and ordered Zhu Bai to go to Beijing to inquire.
The army of the imperial court ate a closed door in front of the Xiangwang Mansion. Just as the officers and soldiers were about to break down the door, black smoke billowed into the sky, and a raging fire lit up the night.
An intermittent voice came out of the palace: "This king is the son of Taizu...... Since the time when the king was young...... Taizu taught this king not to steal life and fear death! Now...... The court wants the king to be a prisoner, and the king would rather die...... and not disgraced! ”
Zhu Bai and his family were reduced to ashes in the fire, but his voice haunted those who heard it like a devil.
After cutting off the five vassal kings in a row, Zhu Yunwen's advisers breathed a sigh of relief.
They were glad that they had made a quick decision and acted quickly, and without a single soldier, they had reclaimed the territory that had feared them day and night.
This not only strengthened the imperial power, but also deterred those who wanted to plot against him.
Next, they turned their eyes to "restructuring".
The high-spirited Emperor Jianwen wanted to govern the country into a peaceful and prosperous world where everyone praised and every family enjoyed happiness.
Zhu Yuanzhang's year name is "Hongwu", and Zhu Yunwen's era name is "Jianwen", it is obvious that Zhu Yuanzhang rules the country with martial arts, and Zhu Yunwen hopes to rule the country with literature.
Although he respects the emperor's grandfather, his concept of governing the country with culture is bound to contradict the concept of the emperor's grandfather ruling the country with force in many ways.
Zhu Yunwen did not hesitate to carry the banner of "restructuring", firmly believing that in different periods and different social environments, different measures for governing the country will naturally occur.
Different from cutting the feudal domain, in the restructuring, he moved forward bravely and made great achievements.
The early autumn sun has a mild temperament, like an energetic old man, who does not show off his strength, but also knows how to protect every life thoroughly.
The breeze blows the sycamore leaves that have just revealed yellow spots, and under the domestication of the old man, it also understands that "those who benefit are real, and those who complain are harmful".
Two fire turtledoves flutter their wings and flutter between the branches.
When the owner is smiling, it will fly to the owner's shoulder, expecting an unexpected reward.
"Within a few months of the new emperor's accession to the throne, he made a number of changes to Taizu's old system, and I don't know if it was his own idea or the idea of those around him."
Zhu Di spread out his palms and let the turtledove peck at the maggots in his palms.
He never disliked these little ones who couldn't see their heads and were white.
On the contrary, there is a mysterious force in his body that eats raw meat all year round that drives him to pay attention to these little creatures.
Finally, these little guys did not disappoint Zhu Di and showed him their huge shining point - clearing abscesses.
"The emperor's personalities are diametrically opposed, and I'm afraid he didn't have any ideas in the restructuring."
Dao Yan touched his bare head comfortably.
Ever since he was able to appear as a deity, his feelings for his bare head have increased unabated than before.
The master who knows the destiny of heaven must also lose it before he knows that what he once possessed is so precious.
"Well, during the Taizu period, the political laws and regulations were relatively strict. Today, the emperor governs the country with benevolence, so naturally he can't ignore the cool government. The provincial sentence was commuted, and the appendix of the "Da Ming Law" was cancelled, and the text of the appendix was cancelled...... The emperor is resolute! ”
In front of Zhu Di and Dao Yan, Hongshi's tone was sarcastic.
In fact, he admired Zhu Yunwen very much in his heart. A young emperor who has just ascended the throne is full of thoughts about the people of the world, if you put aside Hongshi's personal grudges, he really feels that it is the luck of the people to have such an emperor in the world.
"Hahaha, this emperor is so anxious about what to do!" Dao Yan smiled, "Are the emperor and his ministers anxious?" No one has ever thought that the feudal domain will be cut too quickly, the reform will be too fast, and the aftermath will be delayed, and people's hearts will inevitably fluctuate! ”
"If there is a minister in the imperial court who cares about his life like a master, I will carry a hoe and go to farm! Hahaha! ”
Zhu Di grabbed another handful of maggots and put them in the palm of his hand, and rewarded them with turtledoves, he wanted them to eat until they were happy.
He imagined that if he became emperor, he would have to be a generous emperor.
"The emperor wants to win the hearts of the people, but if he wins the hearts of some people, he will lose the hearts of others."
Zhu Di shook his head, denied Zhu Yunwen's approach, and then nodded again, warning himself that he must not be blinded in the future.
"Reducing sentences is naturally a good thing for prisoners, but victims of criminal cases are naturally resentful. It is a good thing for the people of Jiangsu and Zhejiang to be given land, but the salaries of officials and the army must be reduced in all aspects...... The emperor is anxious and wants to do it in one step, and the fool is dreaming! ”
"Your Highness is right! Not only that, but the emperor also forbade the prince who was a vassal king to ......"
Dao Yan's radiant eyes accidentally caught a glimpse of the slowly wriggling white maggots in Zhu Di's hands, and his eyebrows opened up like two bullfighting bulls.
He quickly stretched out a hand to support his forehead, blocking his view.
"They were forbidden to participate in civil and military affairs, and only Confucian scholars were allowed to teach princes. This is a violation of the "Emperor's Ancestral Teachings"! Your Highness! ”
Dao Yan said that he was excited, and he wanted to communicate with Zhu Di's eyes. In view of the bad experience just now, he turned half his head and turned back again.
"Your Highness, we have picked up a false excuse to raise troops in vain!"
"Hahaha, what the master said is good! That kid really doesn't know the height of the sky, and he even dares to move the ancestral training of the first emperor! ”
When the fire dove had eaten and drunk, it flapped its wings and returned to the plane tree.
Zhu Di put away his palm and clenched it into a powerful fist.
"Your Highness, Zhu Yunwen also took away the land of the monks, as well as the Taoists. I think I can unite a large number of Buddhist temples and Taoist temples. With them working for His Highness, they will definitely get twice the result with half the effort! ”
There were no obstacles, Dao Yan's eyes finally met Zhu Di's eyes, and the two shared the passion of spreading the blueprint.
"Well, master, it's hard work. Come on, Redstone, you're in for that, too! Zhu Di raised his glass.
Before the three cups were connected, a few traces of regret came, dimming Zhu Di's eyes like dark clouds.
"Alas! In fact, he is also a good emperor, but it's a pity...... It's not time for him, the emperor, to do ......"
