The Imperial Palace's Marking Office, the three pavilion elders of the court, the six Shangshu Shilang, plus the British Duke Zhang Mao, the Duke of Chengguo Zhu Fu, Jian Changbo and Shou Ninghou four noble representatives, plus more than a dozen Hanlin of the Hanlin Academy, more than a dozen temporary of the Zhan Shifu, and more than a dozen imperial histories of the Inspectorate formed a huge high-pressure scoring team.

Even Emperor Hongzhi brought the crown prince Zhu Houzhao to participate in the reading of the papers, and this scoring team is not high, which is enough to show that the Hongzhi Emperor and the imperial court attach great importance to the Luncai ceremony.

"What about Liu Jin's exam papers, bring them to me and show them, this kid doesn't know what kind of ideas he can come up with."

As soon as Emperor Hongzhi sat down, he directly ordered Liu Jin's exam paper.

He has long wanted to give Liu Jin some reward or something, Liu Jin has done a lot of things for him and the prince, and also done a lot of things for the Ming Dynasty, it stands to reason that Liu Jin's merits are enough to be knighted, but Liu Jin is not a person in the court, plus the Ming Dynasty has a very strict control over the title, it is difficult to be knighted for non-military merits, after all, Comrade Lao Zhu is really mean and thoughtless, and he is too good for his children and grandchildren.

So what Emperor Hongzhi thought about was to give Liu Jin some rewards in the imperial examination, and if he didn't do well in the exam, he would let Liu Jin rank high, but he never thought that Liu Jin had always done well in the exam, and now it was time for him to play in the final palace examination.

Soon, someone found out Liu Jin's exam paper.

"Returning to the Stream?"

Emperor Hongzhi took Liu Jin's answer sheet, looked at it carefully, and when he saw the first four words, he was immediately full of doubts.

Then take a closer look.

The Tusi system in the southwest region was formed in the continuation of the feudal system during the Tang Dynasty, which was essentially a means adopted by the central government to entrap the local leaders without being able to take care of the southwestern border regions.

Under this Tusi system, the land and the people are hereditary owned by the Tusi, and the Tusi form a sphere of influence, and the judicial power, finance, military, administrative power, etc. can be autonomous, and the local natives have all the power of life and death, except for not being able to ascend the throne as the emperor, everything else is no different from the emperor, and only need to symbolically pay a meager tax to the imperial court, and often the imperial court will often be exempted in order to show the emperor's grace, and from time to time there are various rewards.

This kind of system has played a certain positive role in the case of low productivity, inconvenient transportation, and huge differences in national culture, but the Tusi era is an official, hereditary replacement, and a monopoly on one side, and in the long run, the Tusi system has slowly become more and more decadent and backward, and these Tusi have also developed an arrogant and domineering, no one in their eyes, just like a wolf who can't be raised.

When the court has gifts, it is good to say that once the court has fewer gifts, it will immediately show its teeth and bite people, and even rely on the soldiers and people in their hands, etc., and take the initiative to provoke incidents, in order to blackmail the court to get rewards.

In fact, this problem, in the words of later generations, is habitual, just like the foreign uncle, Hong Kong Can and the like in later generations, the better you treat him, the better he treats him, the more he takes it for granted, and vice versa.

They don't think about whether they have made any contributions to this land, whether they have contributed to this country, but they are shameless, arrogant, and arrogant, and in the final analysis, they are used to it.

As long as you treat everyone equally, don't make any differences, and do what you should be, there will be no, and there won't be so many bird things at all.

The same is true of this toast, which is used to all dynasties, and there is a problem, and these toasts think that the court is easy to bully, and they will make trouble if they don't give gifts, and as long as they make trouble, there will be rewards, which has become a headache for the successive emperors of the Ming Dynasty.

Pacifying these toasts can still settle down a little, but this is drinking water to quench thirst, and the appetite of these toasts is getting bigger and bigger, and the burden on the court will become heavier and heavier.

But if you don't care, the southwest region is rugged in the mountains, the mountains and rivers are steep, and between the lofty mountains and mountains, even if you have a million troops, you can't do anything about them.

This is the awkward situation that has formed.

Liu Jin first made a detailed analysis of the history, development and current situation of the Tusi system, and pointed out the root of the Tusi system.

After reading it, Emperor Hongzhi also kept nodding his head, Liu Jin is really different from ordinary officials in the court, and few officials in the court can figure out the history, development and essence of the Tusi system.

"He is worthy of being a son of a master, and he really has extraordinary knowledge and goes straight to the roots."

Emperor Hongzhi gave his own evaluation, and then looked at the specific methods and suggestions given by Liu Jin.

The policy of changing the land and returning to the stream given by Liu Jin is actually a copy of the policy of changing the land and returning the stream in the Qing Dynasty, abolishing the Tusi system, setting up prefectures, departments, prefectures, and counties, and dispatching flow pipes for a certain term of office to manage it.

"The method of changing the soil, the plan is to capture the top, the army is to suppress the bottom, to make it surrender is the best policy, the imperial decree is to surrender to the lower policy, and the method of making seedlings should be used in conjunction with Enwei and ....."

"Well, that's right!"

After reading it carefully from beginning to end, Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but be amazed, Liu Jin's plan to change the land and return to the stream can fundamentally solve the Tusi problem in the southwest region.

Hearing Emperor Hongzhi's words, everyone who was reading the papers couldn't help but look over one by one.

"Look at it, Liu Jin is worthy of being a son of a master, so the method of changing the land and returning to the stream, the southwest can be determined, and no matter how worry-free."

Emperor Hongzhi smiled and motioned for everyone to look at Liu Jin's answer sheet.

When everyone heard this, they all became more curious, and Liu Jian took the scroll first and looked at it carefully.

"High, it's really high, it's really high, it's really high, as soon as this policy comes out, the southwest will be worry-free."

Soon, Liu Jian finished reading it, and immediately couldn't help pinching his goatee and praised.

"Dialysis of the essence, to the point, to eradicate the source of the scourge, this strategy is very second~"

After reading it, Li Dongyang also nodded vigorously.

"Change the land and return to the stream, change the soil and return to the stream, this policy is successfully implemented, and the southwest will be worry-free."

After Xie Qian finished reading it, he couldn't help but praise.

Even the three pavilion elders praised it, and the others immediately became even more curious, and Emperor Hongzhi simply asked Xiao Jingnian to listen to everyone, and everyone immediately applauded after hearing it.

Historically, Yongzheng in the Qing Dynasty only took a few years to completely solve the problem of Tusi in the southwest by reforming the land and returning to the southwest, and since then, nothing has happened in the southwest.

Moreover, because the reassignment of liuguan has strengthened the central government's rule over the frontiers, it is conducive to promoting the social and economic development of these areas, and at the same time, it can also promote the integration of ethnic groups and the unification of the country.

"Let's continue to read the papers, and if there are any good answer sheets, bring them to me and take a look."

After getting Liu Jin's plan to change the land and return to the stream, Emperor Hongzhi was in a good mood and could sleep peacefully from then on, but soon, he also began to think about how to better implement this policy of changing the land and returning to the stream.

"If they want to strip the privileges and status of the Tusi, they will definitely not agree, as soon as this policy comes out, the southwest will be chaotic, so troops and horses should be mobilized from the provinces in advance, just in case."

Emperor Hongzhi is thinking about the matter of changing the land and returning to the stream, and the ministers here also continue to read the papers, one by one, some of them are still able to say something, some of them say something about the combination of grace and power, and the combination of suppression and appeasement, but there are also some who are completely nerds, except for the four books and five classics, and the eight strands of literature in a belly, they can't say anything at all.

Therefore, some of these ministers who read the papers kept shaking their heads, some nodded slightly, and some angrily put the answer sheets away.

There are more than 100 answer sheets, and there are dozens of ministers who read the papers, so on average, it is enough for a person to read a few copies, of course, the specific ranking must be good to read again, but it is not difficult to select some excellent articles from them.

"This person has the talent to go through the heavens and latitudes, and this method cooperates with Liu Jin's method of changing the land and returning to the stream, and the southwest can be safe."

Soon, when Liu Jian saw Wang Shouren's answer sheet, he couldn't help but call it out, and when everyone heard it, they immediately became interested again, and Xiao Jing also hurriedly showed the answer sheet to Emperor Hongzhi.

Wang Shouren's strategy was actually very simple, he was to pacify the southwest from both military and educational aspects, and in the military aspect, Wang Shouren suggested that a group of mountain people should be recruited from Hunan, Guangxi, Sichuan, Yunnan-Guizhou and other regions to train into an army.

Because the mountain people have lived in the deep mountains and old forests for many years, they are naturally very familiar with and can adapt well to the steep mountains and steep mountains and rivers.

This method is also Wang Shouren carefully studied the situation in the southwest region after coming up with a method, the southwest region is inconvenient, not suitable for large-scale use of troops at all, so the use of troops must be fine, and must be attributed to the mountains and forests, targeted, so that you can easily exterminate the rebellion in the southwest Tusi.

It is certainly not enough to exterminate them, so Wang Shouren proposed to strengthen the education of the descendants of the Southwest Tusi, etc., mainly to concentrate the children of the Southwest Tusi and some of the children of the Tu nationality, teach them the Four Books and Five Classics, teach them the Three Principles and Five Constants, and let them also participate in the imperial examination.

"This method is very secondary, and it does have the talent of the heavens and latitudes, and it is used in conjunction with Liu Jin's land reform and return, and the southwest is worry-free."

Emperor Hongzhi, who was still worrying about how to exterminate the rebellious Tusi in the southwest just now, thinking that once the land change and return to the stream were implemented, these Tusi would definitely rebel, immediately shouted out happily.

"Xiao Jing, read it to everyone~"
