Chapter 306: Rebuttal

After Xie Zhi introduced everything that had happened, Emperor Hongzhi asked, "Do you mean to let the imperial court intervene and let Honghe release people?" ”

Xie Zhi's excerpt is on, how to deal with it, you have to breathe first.

Xie Zhi replied: "The imperial court does not have to come forward, on the one hand, there will be greater turmoil among those gentry, as long as the imperial court has a clear goal, the imperial court will not intervene in this matter." ”

Xie Zhi has always had the courage to take on the responsibility, and Emperor Hongzhi is used to it, but he is still a little surprised, and asks, "It's as simple as that?" ”

Xie Zhi was still categorical, nodded and responded: "Yes, it's as simple as that, as long as Your Majesty doesn't interfere in this matter, the next thing will be done." ”

Facts have proved that what Xie Zhi said was not true, and the things he did before were indeed very effective.

Emperor Hongzhi didn't say much more, and said, "Then summon Honghe over." ”

Xiao Jing, who came in with Xie Zhi, immediately responded when he heard Emperor Hongzhi's order: "Yes, Your Majesty!" ”

Soon, Honghe was announced into the palace.

The position of Shuntian Mansion Yin is also quite important, and Emperor Hongzhi's arrangement of Honghe as this Shuntian Mansion Yin is actually a recognition of his ability.

Hong He didn't expect him to be announced into the palace so soon, and when he entered the warm pavilion and saw that Xie Zhi was there, he understood a little in his heart.

Your Majesty announced that he entered the palace at this time because of those things that were in charge of the shopkeeper, right?

Honghe greeted the salute with questions, and after the salute, Emperor Hongzhi asked, "You arrested some of the tooth shopkeepers of Jingshi?" ”

This is a fact, and Hong He cannot deny it, and replied: "Yes, minister..."

Honghe only said one word, and Emperor Hongzhi scolded him sharply: "I want to hear the reason? ”

Honghe opened his mouth to explain, but Emperor Hongzhi asked such a rhetorical question, obviously adding pressure to Honghe.

Sure enough, Hong He paused for a long time before finally opening his mouth and replied: "That's the case, these tooth shopkeepers wantonly hang out the land, making people panic, this is about to start spring ploughing, and the minister is worried that doing so will affect spring ploughing." ”

Honghe's reason is also high-sounding enough, just such an answer, Emperor Hongzhi really can't find his mistakes.

Xie Zhi asked, "Hongfu Yin Mo is not afraid of affecting the spring ploughing in his own fields, right?" ”

When Honghe entered the door, he thought that Xie Zhi might come to impeach him at this time, but when the conjecture really became a reality, it was still a little difficult to accept, and he said after a long time: "Yunzhonghou, when Xiaguan went to Yaxing to arrest people, he arrested your people, but Xiaguan did it completely out of public intentions, Yunzhonghou can't ignore the court for his own interests, right?" The people take food as the sky, if the agricultural time is delayed, can Yunzhonghou bear such a big responsibility? ”

Honghe threw such a big hat over, Xie Zhi had to take it if he didn't take it, and said with a smile: "Is it possible that Hongfu Yin is annoyed and angry?" When a certain person went to buy land in a dental store, what law did he break? Hong Fu Yin just arrested people indiscriminately, and now he is still beating a rake? ”

Honghe's reason for arresting people was not tough, but he really didn't know what to say when Xie Zhi asked him like this.

"You—" Hong He spat out only one word.

Seeing that what he said was almost, Emperor Hongzhi on the side said: "In this way, the reason for Hongfu Yin's arrest is not enough?" If this is the case, then let them go! ”

Emperor Hongzhi opened his mouth, indicating that he was in favor of Xie Zhi on this matter.

Hong He knelt down with a puff, a handful of snot and tears, and said: "Your Majesty, by all means, it is because of these hateful tooth shops that they help buy and sell land, which has caused the current land price to plummet. ”

Honghe said heartbreakingly, and before Emperor Hongzhi spoke, Xie Zhi said: "How can it be influenced, but I don't think it can be affected, the imperial court has not clearly stipulated the purchase and sale of land, otherwise it is impossible for the imperial court to collect less and less grain year by year, and it is not all included in the family of You Gongming?" If there is no clear provision, why not buy and sell? ”

Xie Zhi is completely right, since there are no regulations, who can manage the business, and you are willing to do it.

Hong He couldn't refute Xie Zhi, and directly opened his mouth towards Xie Zhi's actual problem, saying, "I'm afraid you say this because you have enjoyed the benefits of it, right?" ”

In fact, to tell the truth, Xie Zhi has done so much over the years, running around all day long, and the real benefit he has obtained is just such a title that should not be eaten or drunk.

The matter of buying and selling land, Xie Zhiran was so high, but not a single acre of land belonged to him.

Xie Zhi was aggrieved in his heart, but he couldn't tell the truth in front of Honghe, and replied: "The benefits are certain, a certain servant always has to have some harvest after all, any harvest, and where is the original intention of a certain land?" ”

Honghe was about to refute, Xie Zhi said again: "Naturally, a certain person will also be used to plant, it will definitely be planted in accordance with the regulations of the imperial court, and a certain has also decided to plant those fresh varieties advocated by the imperial court, and pay two stones of grain per mu, for the sake of the imperial court, a certain can only do this, if it is calculated as usual, the remaining stone of grain is just barely feeding those farmers who come to farm, you say that in such a situation, what else can a certain do?" If you buy the land at the usual price of the land, you probably can't afford such a price. ”

Xie Zhi is right, after all, no matter who buys it, he must cooperate with the imperial court, and ask the imperial court to arrange for farmers to plant, except for those who give it to the imperial court and bear the food and drink of farmers, and what he gets himself can't even afford the land price, right?

After Xie Zhi replied like this, Hong Daodao: "Since there is no profit, then if you don't buy it, if no one buys it, won't no one sell it?" ”

This idea is really simple, Xie Zhi sighed and replied: "What Hongfu Yin thinks is still too simple, what if these people don't sell land or farm land, if a large area of land is barren, then the people are really going hungry, and the situation of the autumn harvest, Hongfu Yin should also see it, right?" ”

At the time of the autumn harvest, some people were reluctant to give grain to the imperial court, but many people did not receive any grain.

Similarly, during spring ploughing, some people who do not want to pay grain will not plant a single one.

Hong He said: "Then put those farmers back and let them find fields to plant." ”

Xie Zhi sighed and said: "Hongfu Yin still thinks simply, the imperial court can issue this will, but this will, those landed gentry are happy, but what about those peasant households, they can finally settle down and fill their stomachs again, but the imperial court let them go back to live the same life before, you think those peasant households will happily implement it." ”

Hong He thought simply, but many times he was defending his own interests, and said: "The imperial court has contributed money and grain to solve practical problems for those peasant households, as long as their problems can be solved, this problem will be solved." ”

The Ming Dynasty has developed to such a field, and the trade route has completely begun to flourish, not to mention Emperor Hongzhi, Xie Zhi and those farmers can't agree, even those merchants won't agree.

Xie Zhi pulled up a smile, with a bit of ridicule, and said: "Hongfu Yin is also the Yin of Shuntian Mansion, how do you think such a simple answer, it is difficult to give up all the workshops, just to ensure the price of the land." ”

Hong He wanted to nod, but Xie Zhi didn't give him a chance at all, and said sharply: "Hong Fu Yin, don't be so selfish, okay?" For the sake of the three melons and two dates in his hand, he ignored the interests of the imperial court, does Hong Fuyin still remember the promise he made when he first joined the office? Loyalty can be done, and love the people has been done? Those workshops helped the imperial court to pacify the Japanese and exterminate the Tatars, if not, where would the troops come from, and where would the funds come from? In other words, those common people are kind, as long as they are given some food and drink, they can work for the court. ”

Xie Zhi didn't say the second half of the words, it was to give Honghe some face.

After Chongzhen was hanged on the coal mountain, how many people lived and died with the country, and how many dignitaries and dignitaries were loyal to the new master with the looted people's fat and people's ointment.

Of course, Hong He also heard the metaphor in Xie Zhi's words, and he didn't say anything for a long time, and he couldn't refute it.

Xie Zhi is a champion from a background, familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, and all the great truths are clear, and Hong He can't refute him in these aspects.
