Chapter 151: String Song [4th Update]
When Gao Shishi heard this, he had roughly guessed what was going on, but he didn't show anything, he just asked, "I don't know what's the big deal"
Zhang Xueyan said, "Before Xuan Lao presided over the Qingzhang national acres, it was surveyed and understood that the total acres of land in the country were about 7.2 million hectares, an increase of nearly 3 million hectares compared with the 15th year of Hongzhi, that is, nearly 300 million acres. , but this time a detailed investigation of Liangjing and other places, but now only in the vicinity of Beizhili Shuntian, there are still a large number of relatives and nobles in the hidden field. ”
Gao pragmatic heart is indeed like this.
He sighed and asked, "What about the result?"
"It didn't turn out well." Zhang Xueyan shook his head and said, "As early as the second year of Longqing, the household department agreed that the limit of the generations of Xunqi Zhuangtian will be reduced. However, at that time, there was still an endless stream of begging for land grants and exemptions. Therefore, on 17 June this year, at the request of the cabinet, the emperor ordered the provinces of Zhili, Shandong, and Shaanxi to carry out a clean-up of the fields, and demanded that only positive numbers be given according to the regulations, and that all those who exceeded the quota and concealed the land should be governed according to law, and the land rent collected should be prepared by the Ministry of Reconciliation. ”
This is the proper meaning of the question according to the idea of Gao Gong Qingzhang Tian Mu to continue to advance, Gao pragmatic nodded and asked, "How many hidden fields have been found"
Zhang Xueyan said: "Shuntian and other eight prefectures and counties, Zhang, Zhang, Honors, Bian, Muma, Juntun and other places have a total of 2,835 hectares, and the annual amount is 6,920 taels of silver and 24 stones of grain. There are more than 11,550 hectares of new and old farmland. ”
Gao pragmatic raised his eyebrows, "That's it"
"yes, that's the problem." Zhang Xueyan said, "There are so many Xungui fields near Jingshi, in fact, everyone knows it, even if no one knows the specific number, but if it is only 14,000 hectares, I'm afraid no one will believe it."
Of course, according to Gao Pragmatic Speculation, in fact, even if the land occupied by the nobles is not increased tenfold, it should be very easy to increase fivefold.
But the problem is that Qingzhang Tianmu is the business of your household, and if you think that the value found out is wrong, you can send someone to re-investigate, and ask me for what's the use
Zhang Xueyan saw that Gao was pragmatic and silent, and slightly strengthened his tone: "Truth-seeking, Qingzhang Tianmu is the will of Xuan Lao, I heard Wang Shu'an Gong say, you also repeatedly suggested this matter back then, now Mintian Qingzhang has been basically completed, Xungui Tian's Qingzhang is in the ascendant, if the Jingshi can not succeed in clearing Zhang, back and forth only to clear out this fourteen thousand hectares of land, then how will Nanjing, which is more serious in Yintian, needless to say, Xungui Qingzhang will not succeed, and how will the Qingzhang of the vassal king's clan be seen as much as he wants."
Gao Pragmatic sighed, "This matter has indeed been suggested again and again by the late life, but how to deal with the matter, how to intervene in the late life, and why the household Qingzhang only cleared this field, Zhang Butang can know the reason"
Zhang Xueyan said with a straight face, "Xungui Yintian, nothing more than those few means, not that they can't be found, but that the household officials have lived in Beijing for a long time, and they have long been bought, or coerced, and it is good to be able to report one stop and two stops in ten stops." 5 8 5 8 5 read 5 books, but there is still one person in the world, who is not afraid of the prestige of the nobles, not greedy for the bribes of the nobles, and promotes morality and righteousness.
Zhang Xueyan stood up, suddenly bowed to Gao Pragmatic, and bowed deeply, "I hope to seek truth and inherit the legacy of Xuan Lao, manage money for the country, not afraid of words, not greedy for money, not afraid of prestige"
Zhang Xueyan is a Jinshi in Jiajing's 32nd year, and he is a "descendant" who has always been very optimistic about Gao Gong, and once praised him as "Zhang Shengzhuo is dignified, people do not know it, put all the mistakes in the plate, and the sharp weapon should be seen", which means that he is very good at grasping the key points, and the more complex the situation, the more accurate he can find the key points and get things done in one fell swoop.
Gao Gong regarded him as a junior and called him "Zhang Sheng", but after all, it was not a teacher-student relationship, Gao Pragmatic didn't have the courage to treat others as peers, how dare he accept his gift, he quickly stood up and avoided his body, and returned a salute, "Zhang Gong is like this, how dare the kid be restrained, but I don't know what Zhang Gong wants the kid to do."
Zhang Xueyan saw that Gao pragmatic said this, and immediately overjoyed, and Wei Xuezeng glanced at each other, Wei Xuezeng nodded lightly at him, Zhang Xueyan immediately said, "I heard that Wang Shu'an Gong was Qingzhang before, and he had borrowed nearly 100 mathematical scientists from the Jinghua Craftsman School from Qiuzhen, which lasted three years to clear the national people's fields. ”
He paused, as if he was afraid that Gao Pragmatic would not agree, and hurriedly added, "Of course, the allowance given by the household department is still paid, and the headquarters guarantees that this time it will be increased by two percent compared with the previous time."
It turned out to be the idea of hitting
Gao pragmatic secretly said in his heart that the students in my craftsman school are all my family members, and they are covered by me for everything, so naturally they don't have to worry about honor. But the problem is that if I agree, the spearhead of this Jingzhong nobles will be aimed at me, and I haven't even gotten a fucking jinshi yet, and it seems a little troublesome to offend the nobles now. Besides, how good my relationship with these guys is now, especially Zhu Yingzhen and Zhang Yuangong, in the last battle to bring down Feng Bao and Zhang Juzheng, they made great achievements, and I sold them like this, it seems that I am a little unrighteous
Qingzhang Tianmu, this thing must be done, otherwise as Zhang Xueyan said, if Beijing Qingzhang can't come down, Nanjing will have no drama, and there are definitely many more Xungui Yintian in Nanjing than in Beijing, and there are still emperors and a lot of civil officials watching from the side, Nanjing is the real Tiangao Emperor is far away, and the ghost knows how many Yintian
If this is not cleared up, what will happen to the hidden fields of the clan relatives of the vassal kings will not be cleared
Moreover, although these magnates have a high status, after all, the number is small, if even they can't handle it, in the future, those scholars and people will donate the field, the trick field, etc., how can they say that if they don't do it, Da Ming is afraid that he will still have to die
It's nothing more than Zhang Juzheng giving Daming a fifty-year life, and Gao Gong will continue his life for sixty years this time, even if you add the sea or something, it will be counted as a hundred years, but in the end, it will not all return to dust and earth
It seems that this noble field, Qingzhang still wants to be Qingzhang, but you can't Zhang Xueyan put a high hat on me, and I will help you charge into battle and pull hatred. Well, I'm going to have to take care of it, I'm going to have to keep my hatred to a minimum, and I'm going to have to make up for it with some other benefits
"Zhang Butang." Gao pragmatic changed his title, which meant to remind Zhang Xueyan that I was going to get down to business, "This matter, you can agree to it later." ”
Zhang Xueyan and Wei Xuezeng both looked happy, but Gao Shishi immediately continued, "However, you have to give me some time, you can't do it immediately." ”
Zhang Xueyan was slightly stunned, "Oh, why is this?"
"As you know, the evening is now about to face the exam, and the time is tight and the task is heavy"
Zhang Xueyan immediately heard the string song and knew the elegant meaning, and said, "That's, that's, it's important to try, I know it." After a pause, he said, "I have a slight friendship with Shen Ge Lao and Pan Butang, and I know that these two are both heavy gentlemen, and they will not leave the virtuous and talented. ”
Shen Ge Lao naturally refers to Shen Shixing, and Pan Butang refers to Pan Sheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.
Zhang Xueyan and Wei Xuezeng are different, Wei Xuezeng has long been a member of the Gao Party, and although Zhang Xueyan was promoted by Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng had a close relationship with Gao Gong at that time, and Zhang Xueyan had a good relationship with Zhang Juzheng at that time, and he also had a good relationship with Shen Shixing, who also belonged to Xu Jie.
As for Pan Sheng, his qualifications are actually very old, but he has never been able to enter the cabinet, and now that he is older, it is estimated that one of his thoughts is to enter the cabinet before Zhishi, and his family will be able to improve a lot in the future.
Zhang Xueyan said this, obviously to say hello to Shen Shixing, who was most likely to serve as the main examiner and deputy examiner of this examination, and Pan Sheng.
Gao Pragmatic doesn't need them to cheat on themselves or anything, as long as they don't deliberately embarrass them, so Gao Pragmatic doesn't intend to oppose Zhang Xueyan's hint.
He just smiled, pretending not to understand, and said, "Then thank you for the auspicious words of the ministry first." ”11
