In the past, when Guo Dan rushed in front, he played some wild roads, and it was difficult to get into the elegant hall.

Now that the emperor is going down in person, of course this pattern can't be the same as Guo Dan, there must still be rules and laws, so that people can believe that he really wants to use the knife, but not to scare people.

If Wanli just wants to cheat, it is what "I want me to want me to want me to want", then people will only think that you Wanli is childish, and naturally you will not be afraid, and you will definitely continue to fight.

So far, they still have a lot of experience in dealing with Wanli.

Now Shen Shixing is really scared.

Because Wanli applied the idea of a whip law to reclaim privileges, it is actually very valuable for research, and it is by no means a matter of opening his mouth.

If all privileges are directly abolished, this is obviously unrealistic, and the world may be in chaos, and a whip law only exchanges privileges for silver taels, which is equivalent to exchanging silver, but from the perspective of the state system, the privileged people have nothing to lose, which is reasonable and operable.

Moreover, Wang Jiaping, Wang Xijue and other cabinet ministers felt that doing so could really bring benefits to the country.

What is privilege is above the law.

This thing is actually a poison that will slowly corrode the whole country, and the privileges will continue to expand.

It can even be said that no matter whether this "law" is good or not, it is better than privilege, and no matter how ignorant the law is, as long as everyone obeys it, it is better than some people obeying it, and some people can not obey it.

No matter how you say it, a whip law is also a law, so it must be better than the current situation.

This is enough to prove that Wanli is going to be serious.

I'm not kidding you.

But Shen Shixing thinks, although your method is good, but the timing is not right, reform is a very rigorous thing, Zhang Juzheng's reform, it took many years to prepare, but it was not a hot brain, began to reform, and Wanli did not make any preparations, he seemed to be forced to this.

If you want to play tricks with me, then it depends on who is more cross.

No matter how good an idea is, if you do it at this time, it will definitely become a mess.

Because you don't have that foundation at all.

But Shen Shixing didn't dare to anger Wanli at this moment, and he didn't know what Wanli was thinking in his heart.

After the meeting, several of their ministers held a small meeting to discuss how to deal with it.

In the end, they thought that whatever our cabinet thinks, those opposition parties will not listen, because those opposition parties are against our cabinet, and in that case, it is better to give the choice to the opposition.

The Cabinet did not hide this news, but immediately ordered the Ministry of Households to begin to examine the privileges granted by the law, and calculate how many taels of silver these privileged persons could receive each year by virtue of their privileges.

Then he asked the officials to count the number of privileged people.

and let the military department and the criminal department provide assistance to the household department and the official department.

When this order came down, the ministers were really dumbfounded.

You're really going to shake the mountains!

This whip method is much more shocking than Zhang Juzheng's whip method!

After all, the fundamentals of Zhang Juzheng's law change are still the people, and one of Wanli's whip laws is the powerful, without the slightest cover-up.

......

"I don't know what Uncle Zhong thinks, is Your Majesty's move really going to do it, or is it a false move?"

Fang asked Wang Jiaping at the right time.

Wang Jiaping shook his head and said: "I can't see this, it's false, it's real, it's real, it's hard to judge, it's hard to judge what your majesty thinks in his heart." ”

Fang Fengshi nodded slightly, and said: "After Your Majesty abolished Zhang Juzheng's change of law, he ran into walls everywhere, and he spent a few years in a mess, no matter whether this matter is false or real, but what can be known is that His Majesty really wants to make a difference." ”

Wang Jiaping asked: "I don't know what Brother Fang thinks, is this good or bad?" ”

Fang Fengshi was silent for a while, and said: "It's hard to judge whether it's good or bad, but I think it's better than doing nothing!" ”

Although after Wanli was in power, the power was in his hands, but he couldn't do anything, mainly because public opinion was not in his hands, in fact, throughout the ages, no matter what he did, he still had to have the support of public opinion, after all, no one dared to risk the world's disapproval.

At the beginning, Wanli was still very modest, and he took the opinions of the ministers first, after all, he was only in his early twenties at the time, which was the opponent of these old foxes, and he was always led by the nose.

Over time, Wanli suddenly realized that no matter what I did, they were all against it, and I could only do what they wanted me to do.

Who is the emperor exactly?

Wanli became more and more dissatisfied with this, and the struggle with the bureaucracy became more and more intense. The struggle between the cabinet and the speech officials is more or less related to Wanli.

The dispute over the country's capital, there is also a competition in this regard, Wanli just doesn't want to set up the eldest son, the ministers have to let him set up the eldest son, the problem is not right or wrong, but who has the final say.

However, the struggle for the national capital is still a roundabout struggle, and there is no frontal confrontation between the two sides, and this time, Wanli is directly aimed at the bureaucracy and magnates.

Don't talk about those who have and don't, I'm going to get you now.

If this will offend everyone, the consequences will be really unimaginable, and it may really be a mess in the world.

Wanli is not stunned, he is cunning and cunning, he knows that he does this, there are some ministers in the DPRK and China who support him, not that they are all against it, at least the cabinet will definitely support him.

He had been silent before, just secretly trying to find out what these ministers were thinking.

That's exactly what happened.

"Good, good! That's great! ”

When Jiang Yingyan heard the news, he couldn't help but pace back and forth excitedly, and said in his mouth: "Your Majesty Shengming, Your Majesty Shengming!" ”

There were also Sun Rufa, the head of the Criminal Department, and Shen Jing, a member of the Ministry of Justice.

Sun Rufa also nodded excitedly: "It seems that Your Majesty is by no means willful, but has a plan to remove their privileges step by step." ”

Shen Jing also smiled happily: "It seems that we have all misunderstood Your Majesty before!" ”

Their circle, ostensibly standing with the bureaucracy and even charging for them, was in fact for a different purpose, they really wanted to force the emperor to remove these privileges.

One of Wanli's whip methods, in their opinion, is really wonderful.

It not only gave the ministers reasonable treatment, but also eliminated some unfairness and corruption.

Kill three birds with one stone.

After being excited, Jiang Yinglan sat down again and said, "Everyone, at this critical time, we can't slack off, I estimate that Wu Qinghou and the others may choose to back down, we must make persistent efforts, and we must not let this matter calm down." ”

Sun Rufa asked, "I don't know what Jiang thinks?" ”

Jiang Yinglan pondered for a while and said: "Your Majesty's whip method is actually very beneficial to many officials and talents, especially those who have no background and no relationship, we should win over these people." ”

Shen Jing said: "This may not be enough, we must also unite the Taoist officials, as far as I know, some of them do not really want to reform, we must take the lead and force them to support His Majesty's reform." ”

Jiang Yingyan nodded.

......

This is where the fun comes in.

Before that, the entire imperial court shouted, Wanli is shameless, the customs duties are in your hands, you especially start to exempt privileges, everyone has to pay customs duties, and you are exempt if you have the ability, then you are a man.

A considerable number of them just used this to force Wanli to make concessions.

I didn't expect Wanli to be unusually fierce this time, you all ask for this, that's okay, I'll do what you want.

It's as if the Tang mirror is jumping left and right on the edge of the yellow line, shouting, "Come and hit me!" Hit me! And then he was beaten flat.

This is not what Wanli asked, Wanli just wanted to be exempted from the privileges of tariffs, and they themselves asked for full exemption.

They didn't know how to object.

If it's just two factions fighting each other, and either side admits intimidation, then that's fine.

But the problem is that there are still some people who are not bluffing, they really want to be exempted from privileges, because they know that the tax privileges in particular have caused the state finances to not recover, and they are also eating away at the interests of the people.

It is not good for the country and the people.

Zhang Juzheng only whipped on the surface, but the treasury was immediately restored, and if he could whip it from the root, it was estimated that he would be able to restore the prestige of the Han and Tang Dynasties.

What's even worse is that Wanli's whip law is very beneficial to many low-level officials, especially those who are honest and honest.

The middle and low-level officials led by Jiang Yinglan and others began to arch the fire to death, we don't believe that your emperor dares to do this, you are just bluffing, let's not be afraid, we must resist it, and we must not admit it.

As a result, all the science and road officials were tied to the chariot by them.

Yanguan can be unprincipled in other aspects, but at the level of the emperor, you must rather die than give in, and fight the emperor to the end, if you retreat, then you will not be able to mix in a circle.

At the same time, they secretly publicized the benefits of Wanli's whip law, and many people were able to profit from it, which led to many officials supporting them from the bottom of their hearts.

The magnates were dumbfounded this time.

In advance, they first instigated the officials to scare the emperor and put pressure on the emperor, but the officials seemed to be a little too serious, and it was obvious that something was not right in this situation, and you were still going to die.

This......!

The situation seems to have gotten out of control.

......

Prize Pool Hall.

"Up... Rose... It's two points, it's two points! ”

Today's prize pool hall is really lively.

The trading volume has also reached the craziest time in the past six months, and the trading volume has also contributed to the continuous rise of the stock price.

It's all because there is a major shareholder who is secretly selling his shares, some people are taking the lead, and more people are selling some shares.

And this major shareholder is standing in the private room on the second floor at this time, holding a wine glass in one hand and Guo Dan with a beautiful woman in the other.

"Husband, how do you know that the stock price will rise recently?"

Kou Zhuansha turned her face away, and looked at Guo Dan with her eyes full of admiration.

Guo smiled lightly: "Because everyone knows that if those powerful people lose the blessing of their privileges, then they will definitely not be able to play us, and our tooth shop will go to the next level, plus he secretly sent people to spread these news, this stock price will inevitably rise." ”

Kou Liansha nodded slightly, and said, "But at the same time, you know that the privilege will not be waived, so you can take it back at a low price at that time." ”

Guo Dan shook his head and said, "No need!" We need the money now, not the shares. ”

Because of the advance of overseas plans, he now needs money to buy or produce a large number of goods, and this time he wants to sell 20% of his shares.

Kou Shusha frowned, "But if we don't take back our shares, we may lose control of the tooth shop." ”

"It's not the same way we play now."

Guo Dan said: "In the future, whoever can control the currency will be able to control everything, not control the shares, and the fundamental purpose of the entire overseas plan is to obtain absolute control over the currency." ”
