Chapter 180: I'm Too Hard
The issue of land annexation, when brought to the court, what is this for?
At this moment, only a few people such as Feng Quji and Li Si vaguely guessed that the emperor was trying to solve the problem of land annexation, while most of the others looked at Li Yang in surprise.
Because they feel that Li Yang is completely dying!
First of all, it is enough to blame the emperor for the crime of famine. As a result, he even felt that he had not done enough, and then mentioned the issue of land annexation, which was simply running wildly on the road to death!
You must know that in the matter of land annexation, each of these ministers and ministers in the court has a share.
What a wrath of the people!
To be honest, at this moment, many people are already looking at Li Yang with a bit of resentment.
Okay, you Li Yang, in front of the emperor on the issue of land annexation, isn't this just saying that the famine caused by the big guys!
It's just that because the emperor had spoken ruthlessly before, as long as Li Yang said the truth, no one would be allowed to refute Li Yang, let alone anyone to criticize Li Yang. Therefore, although everyone was full of unhappiness when Li Yang mentioned the issue of land annexation, no one dared to criticize it at this time.
"Land annexation?"
At this time, Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment, continued to sing double reeds, pretending to be very displeased, and said: "Li Yang, I asked you to analyze the famine, do you dare to talk nonsense?" ”
Li Yang said with an innocent face: "Your Majesty, the ministers are telling the truth, how dare they talk nonsense!" ”
Ying Zheng said: "Didn't you listen to General Meng's reply before, when the great cause of reunification of my Great Qin was not completed, in order to ensure that the people of the world have self-cultivated land, the military field system was abolished, and the military field system was replaced by Yulu as a reward for military merits. ”
After scolding, Ying Zheng turned his head to Meng Tian and Feng Qu and said, "Meng Tian, Feng Xiang, you come to tell me, is the situation of the people cultivating their own land now, as Li Yang said, the land has been annexed by some people?" ”
Feng Quji was still secretly happy in his heart, thinking that this time Li Yang was probably going to offend all the world's corporal clans and upstarts, and from then on he would lose the hearts of the people in the court.
As a result, when I suddenly heard the emperor's question, I couldn't help but be stunned and was stupid.
Because this shows that the emperor deliberately wants to pull himself into the water!
Suddenly, 10,000 alpacas rushed through Feng Quji's heart......
Emperor, I didn't expect you to be such a person!
And Meng Tian was no better, as soon as he heard this, his heart jumped suddenly, and the whole person was like eating a fly, and his face suddenly turned gray......
The two looked at each other, and their eyes were bitter.
They know too well the seriousness of this matter, if they deny it, they will be bullying the king, but if they are sure, they will offend the world clan together with Li Yang.
This fuck, this time I'm really going to be killed by Li Yang and Yingzheng!
The two couldn't help but greet the eighteenth generation of women of the Li Yang family in their hearts, and then Feng Quji had no choice but to reply: "This...... The minister is not too clear, the problem of land annexation should exist, but is it as serious as the prime minister said, this ...... This ......"
Ying Zheng was angry, slapped the desk, and said angrily: "Where are there so many of this and that, if you don't answer truthfully, I'll be guilty of bullying the king!" ”
Feng and Meng were so frightened that Feng Qujian hurriedly lifted his sleeve and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and then changed his words: "In recent years, the people have had a difficult life, and there has indeed been a cheap sale of land, and the minister thinks that what the prime minister said should be true." ”
Meng Tian also nodded honestly: "The minister also agrees with what the prime minister said, now that the land annexation of Daqin is serious, a large number of people have no self-cultivated land. ”
This time, everyone knows that something big is going to happen!
Sure enough, Ying Zheng was so angry that his beard trembled, and he walked violently in front of the hall, and then his steps stopped suddenly, turned his head and glared at the hundred officials, and shouted: "How can this be reasonable, how can this be true!" A large number of people in the world have lost their self-cultivated land, why in the past ten years, no one has performed! I see that all this land has been annexed by you! ”
"Wait, ten thousand deaths!"
Suddenly, all the civil and military officials were so frightened that they trembled.
Some officials who annexed a large area of land even had cold sweat on their foreheads, and quickly took out sweat towels to wipe their sweat.
Ying Zheng said angrily: "The people of the world, without self-cultivation, how can they live? Have you ever thought about it? ”
There was silence, and no one dared to reply, and their heads were lowered, like a man's back.
"Li Yang, tell me about the consequences of land annexation!" Ying Zheng pointed at Li Yang and ordered.
"Whoa!"
Li Yang received the order and said: "Land is the foundation of the survival of all the people in the world, and if the people have no land, they can only become tenant farmers of the landlords." As far as the minister knows, the tenant farmers cultivate for the landlords, and generally only get 30% of the harvest in a year, and the Daqin land tax is 20%, and the landlords get 50%. In this way, 30% of the income will be difficult to survive, and if there is a year of famine, it will be a situation of great famine. Therefore, if the people do not have their own farmland, chaos will occur frequently in the world, which will seriously threaten the society of our Great Qinjiang and Mountains! ”
Ying Zheng looked shocked, glanced at the ministers, and asked: "Li Yang said that the land annexation has already threatened the safety of my Great Qin Jiangshan Society, can anyone refute it?" ”
Where do everyone dare to refute, the situation is already very clear at this time, the emperor is going to deal with the issue of land annexation, if anyone dares to stand up and refute, it is estimated that they will have to take the sacrificial knife!
At that moment, everyone said in unison: "The ministers are all dead, and the ministers all agree with the views of the prime minister, and the annexation of land is to damage the interests of the Great Qin Jiangshan Society." ”
Ying Zheng said angrily: "Since you all know the stakes, then this matter should not be rectified!" ”
Everyone nodded.
In fact, everyone agrees with the serious consequences of land annexation that Li Yang said. It's just that this question belongs to a question that everyone understands in their hearts, but no one dares to ask.
Not only that, but seeing that everyone was annexing the land, these ministers of the court even joined the army of annexing the land.
If it's not for anything else, just because everyone does it, wouldn't it be a big loss if you don't do it?
Therefore, in the end, there is the current result, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty all pretended to be deaf and dumb, sang and danced peacefully, regarded the world as peaceful, and allowed the problem of land annexation to continue to deteriorate.........
"Good, good!"
Seeing that everyone admitted the huge consequences that the land annexation would bring, Ying Zheng nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "Then tell me what to do!" ”
"............" The crowd was dumbfounded again.
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, you don't dare to speak.
Yes, this matter is too important, and it involves the nobles of the entire Qin State.
Although this issue was brought to the court by Li Yang to discuss, and the emperor also planned to rectify it, no one dared to make an idea, because no matter what idea you made, it would damage the interests of all nobles, and it would definitely become the target of public criticism at that time.
Ying Zheng was very annoyed and said, "Why are you pretending to be deaf and dumb again, Feng Xiang, tell me what to do!" ”
Feng Qujian really wanted to cry.
Obviously, you and Li Yang discussed the issue of land annexation for three days and three nights, why do you always kick this ball at me?
Evil, is there any reason for this?
Moreover, it made Feng Quji feel like a dog in the sun, and he was not a human inside and out.
If there is no good way, the emperor will definitely scold himself. But if you talk about redistributing land, it will be even bigger, let alone sitting firmly in the position of the right prime minister in the future, and it is difficult to say whether you can gain a foothold in this court.
Thinking of this, Feng Quji really wanted to cry without tears, and his resentful little eyes glanced at the emperor, and then he had to bite the bullet and replied: "This...... The minister thought that if he wanted to solve the problem of land annexation, the stakes were very important, and he had to plan carefully, but he couldn't think of a feasible way for a while. ”
Ying Zheng said: "You don't have to plan, you can say whatever you think of now!" ”
Feng Quji: "............"
Who am I messing with? Do you have to catch me and ask?
Looking at Ying Zheng's serious appearance, Feng Quji also knew that it was impossible to get out of the way today, so he had to reluctantly replied: "If you want to solve the problem of land annexation, there is only one way, and that is to redistribute land." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly looked at him.
Yes, because Feng Qujian said something that harmed everyone's interests.
At this time, Ying Zheng said expressionlessly: "Well, you go on." ”
Feng Quji felt that everyone was looking at him, and he had nothing to love, so he said: "If you want to redistribute the land, there will be a huge difficulty, that is, how to make the people who own the land willingly return the land that already belongs to them to the imperial court. This one...... The minister was stupid, but he couldn't think of a countermeasure for a while. ”
Ying Zheng bowed slightly, and said: "The analysis makes sense, but you are also a little wrong!" ”
Feng Quji was stunned for a moment, and said suspiciously: "Please also ask Your Majesty to explain!" ”
Ying Zheng said: "Since the pre-Qin period, the land has never belonged to private ownership, and the land is not allowed to be bought and sold and hereditary. Therefore, those who annex land, the land they annex is illegal, how can it be called land that belongs to them? ”
Everyone was stunned and directly stupid.
Obviously, everyone forgot that in the Qin state, land belonged to the imperial court, and it was never allowed to be bought and sold and hereditary.
Since the land was allocated by the imperial court, how can you say no if the imperial court wants to redistribute it once?
This time, everyone was really speechless by Yingzheng's words.
And at this moment, Li Yang came out and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that since the pre-Qin period, although the land has been distributed by the imperial court and cannot be bought and sold privately, but now that the annexation has become a common trend, it cannot be forcibly returned to the imperial court, and it is appropriate to solve it with a soft policy." ”
Ying Zheng thought thoughtfully, and asked everyone: "What do you think?" ”
Everyone said: "What the prime minister said, the ministers agreed. ”
And Feng Quji looks like a ghost who wants to die.
I'm the bad guy, but the good guy lets him be it!
Thinking of this, Feng Qujian raised his head 45 degrees and looked up at the sky......
I...... It's so hard!
