West Garden, Taisu Palace, Leopard House Mansion

This year, the capital is surprisingly hot, and it has only been a few days after the Dragon Boat Festival, and the heat wave is already rolling. All the way from the imperial city to Xiyuan, whether it was riding a horse or sitting in a sedan chair, it was sweaty and heavy.

There are great landscapes and rivers, and there is no intention to enjoy them.

However, as soon as he stepped into the Taisu Palace, he was immediately wrapped in cool air, and there was a faint cold fragrance lingering on the end of his nose, which made people's impetuous hearts quiet, and suddenly he was in another world.

Many people had a comfortable look on their faces.

Only Liu Ji, the head of the household department, frowned even tighter.

His eyes couldn't help but sweep towards the ice basin iceberg carried by the different forms of Rui beasts in the corner of the main hall, looking at the lingering incense mist, and couldn't help but calculate the expenses.

Although it is clear that these are all allocated by the inner library.

Although I know that since I cleaned up Qiu Ju, my inner money is abundant.

Although he knew that the emperor was in a sense the same benevolent monarch as the previous emperor, he was willing to generously allocate silver from the inner treasury to fill in everywhere.

Although he was born in Zhan Shifu, he was extremely close to the emperor in his heart.

But......

He still couldn't help but think about it.

Alas, it really responds to the saying "If you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are not at home".

In the past, we also knew that the treasury was tight, but only when we really went to the household department did we know how tight the treasury was.

In the past two years, there have been disasters and famines everywhere, and the north is not very peaceful, such a situation can't help but make careful calculations, and it really looks like he can save money everywhere.

A low greeting sounded in front.

Liu Ji glanced at it, one was Cai Zhen, a Chun'an concubine with a calm face, and the other was Liu Jin, who was arrogant, and he was even more unhappy.

The vassal kings of the clan, the eunuchs who erect power, those who forcibly occupy the people's land, those who forcibly ask for bribes, and those who suck up the people's fat and ointment, are eating meat and drinking blood on the treasury!

Liu Jin saw Liu Ji and greeted him with a smile.

He looked at Liu Ji and was also unhappy.

Liu Ji is a Hubu Shangshu who has just been transferred from the Ministry of Rites, and originally, this position should be another "Liu Ji" - Liu Ji, the head of the Hubu.

Liu Ji is a fellow villager of Liu Jin, quite talented, and was picked up by Liu Jin.

Stuffed Liu Yu into the cabinet, Cao Yuan took over the secretary of the Ministry of War, Zhang Cai was promoted to the secretary of the ministry, and Li Yiyuan, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, was also Liu Jin's person, and then let Liu Ji get the secretary of the household department, and the six departments were basically in his hands Liu Jin.

Unexpectedly, the emperor actually transferred Liu Ji to the household department, and said that the names of Shangshu and Shilang were too easy to mix, so he transferred Liu Ji to the criminal department.

In the first month of this year, Wang Jianzhi, the secretary of the Criminal Department, was just approved as a seventy beggar, and the emperor promoted Hong Zhong to be the secretary of the Criminal Department.

Liu Jin hated it from the bottom of his heart, but he couldn't help but wonder what the emperor meant.

Especially after contacting Zhang Cai's words to persuade him, and then thinking about the words that the emperor said to him, "clean up the door" and "don't call something unworthy of virtue to get involved", he was worried that the emperor was really suspicious of him and beating him.

blamed the dog monkey, which made the emperor feel cold, and began to suspect them, the old men of the East Palace.

Liu Jin said secretly.

Now he is good to do something to come out, punish those insatiable things, and find more silver for the emperor, so that he can solve the emperor's suspicions and trust him as before.

Liu Jin was thinking in his heart, and glanced at Cai Yuma out of the corner of his eye.

Shen Ruishang was a secret fold, not a public impeachment of King De, and the courtiers next to him did not know.

The emperor only asked someone to copy part of the content and send it to the cabinet and the celebrant for review.

Today, the cabinet, Cai, and the household department have arrived, and I think I want to deal with this pile.

The corners of Liu Jin's mouth drooped, his heart was so good, King De was just bumping into him, and he would ask Yushi Zhang Yu to go over to King Chad!

Hehe, didn't Li Dongyang instruct Zhang Yu to check Jiao Fang and his Liu Chitose people?

Let's see how Li Ge Lao of the in-laws investigates!

(Cai Miao, the granddaughter of the eldest princess of Chun'an, married the second son of Chengguo, who is the nephew of Mrs. Li Dongyang)

Liu Jin narrowed his eyes, looked at Li Dongyang, the first assistant who walked in front of everyone with a straight back, and snorted coldly in his heart, no matter whether there was water released or not, he would find someone to play a copy and let this old thing taste it.

*

Brother Shou seemed to have just come back from running a horse outside, and before he had changed his uniform, he went straight to see the ministers, and it was not enough to follow the two small chamberlains to play the fan, and he grabbed the big pu fan and shook it vigorously.

This look is really a bit funny, and it damages the emperor's heroic image.

Others have long been accustomed to the little emperor's casualness, and they don't think it's strange, but Shen Jin, who came to Xiyuan for the first time, secretly wondered.

He hadn't seen the little emperor a few times.

Previously, the Zhang family had hired a Japanese lecturer for him, and he should have been able to face the king often.

As a result, the little emperor stopped the feast on the grounds of the hot weather.

If the weather doesn't cool down, it's the wedding of the Son of Heaven.

After the wedding ceremony, it was completely cold again, and the feast continued to be postponed.

Later, the West Garden rose, and the emperor moved the West Garden from time to time......

All kinds of excuses for "skipping class" made the little emperor play hard.

On this day, the lecturer became a false name.

Shen Jin smiled bitterly in his heart, as if the position that the Zhang family planned for him would always have twists and turns, such as the official on this day, such as the right spring fang of Zhan Shifu before......

And this time.

This time he returned to Beijing out of filial piety, and the Zhang family wanted to push him into the General Political Division.

In fact, he would be more than happy to return to the Hallym Academy.

He really wants to read books, study and study, and when he has free time, he can go to Qingze Academy to give lectures.

In the days when he returned to his hometown to keep filial piety, he had already managed the clan very well, and he also liked such a calm and leisurely teaching day.

He also heard that Li Ge Lao was rectifying the Siyi Pavilion and recruiting teachers from abroad, and proposed that the teachers of the Siyi Pavilion must have a good understanding of the characters and the meaning of Chinese characters in order to be competent, and asked the officials of Yunnan Town, Shaanxi Province to visit people who know the Tatar, Xifan, Gaochang, Xitian, and Baiyi languages and characters.

Shen Jin was very interested in this, but because of the previous tragic marriage, he knew how much Elder Li Ge didn't want to see him, so it was not easy to move forward.

Shou Ninghou entered the palace several times for the resumption of his son-in-law, but the emperor always said that the general administration department was full, and the officials were not successful, and the Ministry of Rites and Rites had a shortage of priests.

The priests of the ancestral shrine are in charge of auspicious ceremonies, hand sacrifices, funerals after the general public, ministers give gifts, and manage monks, sorcerers and those engaged in yin and yang, divination, and medicine, with little power, no small responsibility, not much oil and water, and a lot of bad things.

The Zhang family didn't even want to go to the Hanlin Academy, how could they let a champion son-in-law go to such a yamen!

coincided with Liu Jin's purge of the "Liu Xie Yu Party" again, and many positions were vacant, and Jiao Ge Lao Zhishi, the pattern of the DPRK and China has changed a lot.

The Dragon Boat Festival Dragon Boat Race Emperor didn't have much fun, and the Zhang family immediately greeted him and said that he wanted to enter a big dragon boat, which finally attracted the dragon's face.

After the festival, Shen Jin entered the household department and became the Qing official of Henan.

Although it is not the official department that the Zhang family expects, Lang Zhong is the fifth grade, which can be regarded as a promotion - Shen Jin Ding has just been promoted to the fifth grade before worrying.

The clear will has been issued, and the Zhang family can only admit it. After all, it is a promotion, and it is relatively easy to find a better place to go in the future.

Shen Jin had just recovered not long ago, and this time he was recruited to face the saint in Xiyuan, and he didn't know what was going on, so he couldn't help but be worried.

He didn't know what the emperor would ask, whether he would ask himself, he repeatedly took stock of those things in Henan in his heart, and followed everyone to salute in a daze.

I only heard the little emperor's cheerful voice calling for a waiver, and ordered the chamberlain to give the elders seats, and one of them served an ice bowl, as if he was in a good mood.

Over there, Liu Jin had stepped forward diligently, and scolded the little chamberlain who followed the emperor for not serving the Long Live Lord well, because he said: "Long Live Lord is sympathetic to us, and I can't bear to wait for us for a long time, but in the end, the dragon body is important, or let the slave maid wait for the emperor to change his clothes first, right?" ”

The little emperor smiled and said: "It's okay, it's okay, they are still waiting for me on the school ground, and after a while, I will go over as soon as I finish speaking, and change clothes back and forth to delay my efforts." ”

Saying that, the big horse golden knife sat down on the dragon chair, and also took a bowl of ice bowls, and fell down, and asked the ministers not to be polite, and there is.

The faces of the elders showed more or less helplessness.

Shen Jin saw that the little emperor was so reckless and free, and remembered Ruidi's admiration for the little emperor in his previous words, and he had a good impression in his heart.

He took a sip of the ice bowl, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned, this taste is very familiar.

The juice in that bowl is like sour plum soup, but the taste is different, sweeter than sour plum soup, and it is drunk with ice beads, and the taste is excellent.

I just heard the little emperor call him: "Little Shen Langzhong, have you ever drunk this?" ”

Shen Jin was stunned, he didn't expect the emperor to be the first to talk to him, he hurriedly put down the bowl, got up respectfully, and replied: "...... Brother...... The younger brother of the Chen clan once brought some local dried fruits with the minister, and the minister just made tea and drank it at home, which tasted similar to this, but was far less than ......

The little emperor laughed when he heard this, patted the arm of the chair and said, "It's Shen Ruijin's native product, the wild fruit called the red clove." ”

"Where to soak in water!" He clapped his hands and stomped his feet, and said triumphantly: "This is what I and Concubine Xian figured out, boiled with snowflake sugar, it is much better than sour plum soup, and the taste is much worse with ice or not......"

In the face of such a lively little emperor, Shen Jin couldn't cry or laugh, so he had to echo and say that he was a tyrannical thing if he didn't eat it right.

The old ministers present had different expressions, Wang Hua and Yang Tinghe were not interested in Shen Rui's filial piety, but looking at the affection in the emperor's words, they knew that even though Shen Rui was far away, he was still in the emperor's heart, and he was still quite relieved.

And Li Dongyang and Liu Ji both had a sinking face, and they were very dissatisfied with the behavior of the little emperor Zhen Riwo in Xiyuan in addition to pondering and playing, and pondering and eating, and completely undoing business.

However, without waiting for the old scholars to open their mouths to persuade them, the little emperor had already taken the first step to get down to business, because he asked, "Uncle and grandfather, but you brought the dossier?" ”

Cai Yuma hurriedly responded.

When everyone heard this, they knew that this was the official start of the political questioning, so they hurriedly put down the ice bowl and sat upright, waiting for the emperor to ask questions.

Over there, Cai Zhen had already unfolded his zazi and said: "In the fourth year of Chenghua, King De invited Qin to give Shouzhang and Xin County more than 4,100 hectares of fields, Dongchang and Chongzhou two prefectures of idle fields and more than 700 hectares of Qinghe County in Zhili......

"In the eighteenth year of Chenghua, King De played more than 500 hectares of Baiyun Lake in Zhangqiu County."

"In the twenty-third year of Chenghua, Xianmiao increased the vacant land of 43 acres and 30 acres in the three counties of Dewang New Town, Boxing and Gaoyuan."

The old ministers' faces were dark, Liu Ji's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and Liu Jin's eyes turned quickly.

Brother Shou, who has been smiling at the corner of his mouth from beginning to end, and the fan in his hand is shaking gently, as if he doesn't care.

However, when Cai Juma read it and presented it to him, Brother Shou trembled, and took a sentence idly: "In February, it seems that the Defu also wrote a book saying, 'The original Baiyun Lake and Xincheng counties have a total of more than 1,700 hectares of Ludang fields, which are occupied by the small people, and the county and other officials do not ...... with the pursuit."

As he spoke, he turned to Liu Ji, the head of the household, with the intention of asking.

At that time, there was a review of the Ministry of Households, although Liu Ji returned to the Ministry of Rites at that time, but after arriving at the Ministry of Households, he also read these files.

Liu Ji replied in a deep voice that this was indeed the case, and said that at that time, he fined officials ranging from 100 stones to 300 stone meters from the political envoy, the Tongzhi of Jinan Prefecture, the general judgment, and the magistrate of Xincheng County.

Brother Shou nodded, raised his eyebrows and said to Cai Yuma: "He didn't mention how many fields he harvested last year. ”

He fiddled with the delicate ice bowl in his hand, and there was still a smile on the corner of his mouth: "If I go on like this, if I want to eat this wild fruit of Shandong, I am afraid that I will have to ask Defu for it." ”

Cai Juma couldn't laugh, his head was lowered, and he only hung his head in fear.

There are many vassal kings in Shandong, but there are only a thousand acres of land in others, and they belong to the king of De with the most fields! It is also the king of Germany who does not stop.

For this eldest brother, Cai Yuma is extremely disgusted, and he doesn't want to affect the future of his children and grandchildren because of him.

The eldest princess of Chun'an was also clear, and after receiving Xu's letter, she knew that the situation was serious, and the couple discussed it, and then entered the palace together to ask for guilt.

The little emperor was not surprised by the reaction of the eldest princess Chun'an, but persuaded his aunt and grandmother not to be angry, saying, "King De is the elder, where can my aunt and grandmother take care of my brother's affairs?" ”

He also said, "Defu is Defu, and my aunt and grandmother are my aunt's grandmother, so I can tell the difference, and my aunt and grandmother don't have to worry." ”

As soon as the emperor said this, the eldest princess of Chun'an knew that this matter must be severely punished, and she scolded her brother eighteen times in her heart.

Today, it's not the first emperor, let alone the Xian Temple!

This brother who fell into the eyes of money is afraid that he will have to suffer.

But it's okay, it's repaired at this time, so as not to let him know the height of the sky and cause even more trouble in the future.

Xu's letter vaguely stated that he wanted to prevent the people from rebelling, and Chun'an also thought that if he really called the Dewang Mansion to force the people to rebel, it must be a matter of cutting down the feudal domain and eliminating the country.

The eldest princess of Chun'an also decisively said that Shandong is now affected by the disaster, and she is also very concerned, and is willing to donate the Zhuangzi under her name to Baitian fertile land for disaster relief.

does not mention making up for King De, but only says that he is loyal to the monarch and patriotic.

When the little emperor heard this, his smile became much more sincere, and he didn't say whether to accept it or not, but only asked Cai Juma to go back and flip through the dossier, and sort out the land given by King De over the years.

So today, Cai Yuma came with a dossier in his arms, ready to cooperate with the emperor in everything.

The emperor opened the golden mouth here, Cai Fuma didn't dare to pick up the stubble, but Liu Jin couldn't wait to jump out.

He had a generous face and a flat face, and said in a serious manner: "Supervising the imperial history Zhang Zhen is investigating the matter of the fields and acres in Shandong, and he should go to investigate the disputes over the fields and acres of the Wangfu of the Prince, this person is able to handle things, and he will handle it impartially if he wants to come, and he will neither suffer the people, nor will he wronged the prince of De, and he can share the worries of the long-lived lord." ”

Li Dongyang also said: "The old minister thinks that Zhang Yu can take on this position. ”

The cabinet members and Liu Ji all seconded the proposal.

Liu Jin squinted at Li Dongyang and pulled out a sneer.

Brother Shou closed the book, threw it on the table on the side, and said, "Just follow Zhuqing and let Zhang Yu go over to investigate." ”

Everyone hurriedly said in unison, the emperor is shengming.

Brother Shou turned to Cai Juma again and said: "Recently, there have been many clan lawlessness, especially the Qingwang Mansion, which has issued many decrees before, but has repeatedly refused to change, and still connived at the children. ”

"There are also those in the Jingjiang Palace, the Shanyin Palace, those who commit crimes, those who should be hanged, and those who should be exiled, all of them will be severely punished to set an example. There is also the passage of King Rong and the disturbance of the people......"

Cai Yuma responded one by one, and several cabinet elders had no objections.

A Qingwangfu has really not stopped in recent years, making the people's grievances boiling, which can be seen to be rotten to the roots;

Moreover, what is disposed of is just small fish and shrimp.

Thirdly, it is also through these things to knock and knock on vassal kings like King Toku.

I didn't think that Brother Shou's two words turned back to King De's side, because he asked: "I didn't know it in the past, but when I heard it today, my uncle and grandfather, among these feudal domains, the most land is given by the Defu, right?" ”

Cai Juma bowed his head and said yes.

"In the past many years, I have not seen the Defu contribute to the imperial court or benefit the locality. Shandong Yuan has been suffering from famine for many years, and there is little output per acre, and the displaced people have become troubled, so they cut down 3,000 acres of land in Defu to appease the displaced people. ”

Brother Shou's tone was relaxed and casual, as if he was saying that another spoonful of sugar should be added to the ice bowl.

This time, without waiting for Cai Yuma to speak, several pavilion elders spoke first: "Your Majesty can't!" ”

Brother Shou raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Dongyang first.

Li Dongyang said heavily: "The matter involves the vassal king, please be cautious." There are so many places to reduce the land of Defu, which is likely to cause panic among the vassals. ”

It's easy to cut the land, but if the feudal lords mistakenly think that the imperial court is going to cut the feudal domain, it will be a big trouble.

Since the Jingjing, the imperial court has always been very jealous of the feudal domains, not only to guard, knock, but also to appease.

Today, the little emperor is not used to seeing the actions of the vassals, and the ministers also understand that they are even more unaccustomed to it, but they can't force the vassals to rebel because of the little emperor's temperament.

Brother Shou's face was difficult to look at, "So, the Defu occupies the fertile land and the people are displaced, what does the old gentleman think to deal with?" ”

Li Dongyang sighed secretly in his heart, and only said: "Your Majesty, forgive the old minister for being blunt, if the feudal domains are unstable, the people will only be more miserable."

"In the first year, the emperor has invented the decree to levy three points of tax and silver per mu in each royal palace, and this time he asked the imperial history to check the acres of land and tax silver, let the German government make up for it, and then issue an order to apply for it.

"Let the local states and counties be good and appease the people, or let the people occupy the land, or encourage the reclamation of famine, supplemented by the government of benefiting the people......"

Brother Shou snorted angrily and said, "Where do the people dare to reclaim the land in Yanzhou? I'm not afraid that it will be forcibly occupied again! Now they all go to Dengzhou to beg for food. ”

Li Dongyang was speechless for a while.

"There is wasteland in Dengzhou." Brother Shou's voice slowed down a little, but his tone was still not good, and he said in that ruffian tone, "But this side has opened up the wasteland, and the other side will be repatriated back to his hometown, and I don't know who will go if it is cheaper, and who will do it?" ”

As soon as these words came out, several pavilion elders understood what the little emperor meant, and looked at Wang Hua and Yang Tinghe quietly, saying that this was going to be given to Shen Rui.

Of course, Liu Yu looked at Liu Jin.

Liu Jin is now trying to provoke the contradiction between King De, the eldest princess of Chun'an and Li Dongyang, and there is no one to plant King De's land!

Then he put on an attitude of resolutely standing on the emperor's side, Liu Jin said awe-inspiringly: "Long live what the Lord said is extreme!" Whoever reclaims the land belongs to him—the people only recognize this principle. If this is not guaranteed, doesn't it make the people of the world panic? ”

Liu Jiyuan is also the young Zhan Shi of Zhan Shifu, and he has been with Yang Tinghe and his colleagues for many years, and he has a good relationship, and now Yang Tinghe is also in charge of the household department, so he naturally wants to speak for Yang Tinghe's son-in-law.

He also had a case in this regard, and he talked eloquently: "In the fourth year of orthodoxy, the Ying Temple ordered that all the people should be exempted from the crime of fleeing from the house and allowed to attach their nationality in the locality.

"As for those who are willing to return to their hometowns and resume their businesses, they will be exempted from grain for two years, and all the arrears of taxes and grain in previous years will be exempted."

"In the sixth year of Chenghua, the Xian Temple was also allowed to play, and the displaced people who were willing to return to their hometowns were provided with rations by the government along the way, and the original homes were rationed with grass houses, grains and even ploughing cattle, and they were still given to the original fields, and the grain difference was exempted for five years."

Liu Ji saw the transcription of Shen Ruimi, and when he went back, he flipped through all the relevant files, and what he said at this time had a will and a record to check.

Don't say that no one argues, even if someone raises objections, it can't be refuted.

It is said that it is difficult to leave the homeland, but in fact, as long as the people have a way to live, no one wants to leave their homeland.

If you escape, your hometown has no way to live, and no one is happy to send them back to their hometowns, so the previous imperial court usually promised many benefits in order to recruit the displaced people.

It's the same today. Otherwise, it is necessary to let the displaced people stay in their localities.

Brother Shou's face turned from gloomy to sunny when he heard this, and said: "In this way, according to the precedent of the orthodox dynasty of the Ying Temple, Yanzhou will be exempted from the crime of fleeing households, and it will be allowed to open up the wasteland in Dengzhou, and the newly cultivated barren land will be exempted from grain tax for three years." ”

What else can everyone say, they have to call the emperor Shengming.

Brother Shou instructed again: "Shen Jin, you are the Qing official of the Shandong Qing Dynasty of the Hubu Division, and this matter must be properly handled as soon as possible." Dengzhou is special, and special things should be done. ”

The Department of Household Officials is indeed in charge of the household registration, money and grain, salt tax, banknote customs and other matters of each province.

But here's the problem...... Shen Jin, he is a Qing official in Henan!

Shen Jin also wondered why the emperor ordered him to come, and after listening to it for a long time, he felt that it had nothing to do with him, and wondered if it was because of ...... This brotherly relationship between him and Shen Rui......

At this time, it was a little sudden, the emperor had just rewarded his official, and I was afraid that he didn't remember where he was.

Shen Jin was embarrassed, Liu Ji had already spoken for him, explaining that Shen Jin was in charge of Henan, and he would let the Shandong Qing Officials Division deal with it as soon as possible when he went back.

Brother Shou waved his hand and said, "Shen Jin, transferred to Shandong Qing official Shi Langzhong." Let Shandong go to Henan. ”

Everyone was shocked.

Over there, Liu Yu had already spoken: "Your Majesty, Shen Jin and Shandong Shen Rui are brothers, and it is reasonable to avoid suspicion, how can you let Shen Jin manage the Shandong Qing Officials." ”

Brother Shou sneered, pointed at Yang Tinghe and said, "Then Shen Rui, Taishan, is still in charge of the household department, do you want to let Yang Ge avoid suspicion?" ”

Liu Yu was choked and sneered: "Naturally, there is no need for Yang Ge to avoid suspicion, if the emperor says so, the minister will have to let the dog resign and return to his hometown." ”

Liu Yu's sons Liu Ren and Shen Rui are on the same list, and they were listed in the top ten by the little emperor and directly awarded the official Hanlin review.

As soon as he teased himself like this, the little emperor was not angry, and laughed and revealed.

Shen Jin's errand was changed in this way.

Liu Yu hung his head, after all, there was a political envoy who participated in politics before Shen Li, and he was directly in charge of Shen Rui, and he never avoided suspicion.

However, thinking of Shen Li, Liu Yu unconsciously glanced at Liu Jin again.

Shandong's left and right political envoys have been pushed down, and at this time, Shen Li, Xie Qian's son-in-law, must not be allowed to go any further.

Now is obviously not a good time to mention this, but we will have to discuss it slowly when we get back.

Everyone thought that even if today's matter was discussed, someone would go to check on King De's land, and the displaced people in Dengzhou would be attached to the local area, and the little emperor would obviously continue to go back to the school to play.

I didn't want Brother Shou to move, but he didn't mean to move, and said: "With the attachment of this homeless person, the other attachment matter will also be solved." ”

He waved his hand and asked the little chamberlain to hand over a few notebooks to the crowd, and said in his mouth: "For the sake of 'attracting investment', it is proposed to allow the children of foreign businessmen to attach to the local imperial examination:

"Those who have resided in the local area for 20 years or more; Those who own a certain amount of land, a number of shops, employ a number or more local laborers, and have paid taxes for two years; ……”

Brother Shou has just started here, and the old ministers over there have already said: "Your Majesty, don't do it!" ”

"This is not conniving at businessmen and impersonations!"

"His heart can be punished! The emperor will now order to severely punish those who offer plans! ”

The so-called impersonation is the fake nationality, which is one of the fraudulent means of the imperial examination, although the imperial court punishment is quite severe, but it has been repeatedly prohibited.

The most common ones are those who are from the capital and from the remote mountainous areas. The former is due to the fact that the Beijing division has the most solutions, and the latter is due to the poor teaching level in the remote mountainous areas, and the Chinese style is easy.

It is normal for scholars to take refuge, and it is also the direct reason why impersonation is repeatedly banned.

However, the non-local registration for the examination actually squeezed out the local students' academic places and settlement quotas, and naturally they will be obstructed and resisted by the locals.

It is not uncommon for this to cause major disputes in the local area.

Therefore, when it comes to impostors, all the ministers are disgusted.

Brother Shou seemed to have expected it, and waved his hand and said, "I said that I will take a look at Zazi Tiao Chen first!" It's not like impersonation. ”

"Those who are required to have a field and shop in the local area, and who are required to hire a number of local laborers, and who have made a certain contribution to the local area, such as building bridges and paving roads. For the benefit of the people in this way, how can it not be attached? ”

"Didn't you say anything? That year, the treasury was short of silver, and the household department also said that "those who are willing to go to prison will receive 150 taels of food, 200 taels of enlargement, and 230 taels of additional learning." ”

"Those who are attached to the state do not enjoy the treatment of the diet, but instead donate corn and silver to improve the school conditions in the state capital and county and subsidize poor students."

"Zhongju can be exempted from hard labor, but it is not exempt from tax, and even the same is true for Zhonggongshi, Jinshi, and officials."

"If you are willing to spend money on the attached family, you are not bad for silver. What is wrong with attracting investment and attracting funding to benefit the local community? ”

"As for forcibly occupying the local quota, then it would be better to add some additional quota at the local level."

The ministers were dumbfounded.

And Brother Shou dusted off his clothes, and said: "I plan to temporarily set up a 'business registration', and the number of Shandong business students will be twelve, twenty students will be born, and twenty students will be added, and one tribute will be paid in two years. ”

*

Shandong, Dengzhou City, Shen Mansion

"The owner's move is just afraid that it will cause criticism." As early as when Shen Rui wrote the notebook, the mastermind Master Chen expressed his disapproval.

"Of course, the proprietor is planning to ...... for the children of the Shen family" In Master Chen's opinion, Shen Rui's policy of attaching to the nationality is to facilitate the children of the Shen family, especially Shen Lian's eldest son, Shen Jin.

Shen Jin still has some talent in reading, but Nanzhili is a large province for the imperial examination, with a total population of 8 million people, tens of thousands of students, and only 3,000 people in each subject are qualified for the township examination, which shows the fierce competition.

If he takes the exam in Songjiang, he really doesn't know when he will be able to pass the exam.

But in Shandong, it's a different story.

It's no wonder that Master Chen thinks so.

"But in the long run, I'm afraid that before the Shen family grows into arms, the owner will have such a reputation on their backs, and it will be difficult to move forward in their careers. If anyone is bent on framing ......," he worried.

Shen Rui waved his hand and said, "I thought of it from Fourth Uncle Lian's brother, but it's really not for a few more Shen family members in the officialdom." ”

He smiled and said, "Attracting investment is part of it. ”

Master Chen said: "As long as the sea is opened, there are rich businessmen and giants who will come to make profits, so why ...... it"

Shen Rui lowered his eyelids, and his smile gradually faded, "It's not enough to be beneficial." Where it is advantageous elsewhere, they will go elsewhere. It is necessary to tie them tightly to Dengzhou, so that they can develop with Dengzhou. ”

Also, he said in his heart, and under the guise of special affiliation, everyone is accustomed to the fact that scholars can also be exempt from tax exemption, and officials can also be exempt from tax exemption, so they tore out the mouth and pulled out the salary of "contribution" from the bottom of the kettle......

(End of chapter)
