Chapter 740: Meeting
The little eunuch on the side looked at it, sighed in his heart, and hurriedly whispered: "Long live the lord." ”
Zhu Cihong was sober violently, looked at Xiaozhuang deeply, and said lightly: "Let's be flat." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Fu Lin stood up and bowed his head respectfully.
Xiaozhuang then stood up and stood behind Fu Lin, bowing his head and saying nothing, waiting for Zhu Cihong's 'reprimand'.
But Zhu Cihong kept looking at Xiaozhuang, and his mind didn't know where he had drifted, so he waved his hand and said, "Declare the decree." ”
The little eunuch on the side was stunned, this is not the established process.
When he saw Zhu Cihong's expression, he was chilled, and hurriedly ordered someone to make rice paper.
Fulin and Xiaozhuang are mermaids, and they knelt down again to receive the order.
The little eunuch read out the will drawn up by Zhou Zheng, to the effect that there are three layers: first, the rebellion of the unsubordinate of the past Jianju, second, he is pleased with Fulin's 'loyalty and righteousness', and third, he canonizes Fulin as a loyal and righteous uncle, and gives the capital to the palace, which is hereditary for three generations, and he is not to blame for the past.
At this point, Fulin and Xiaozhuang were relieved, and their lives were finally saved.
After Fulin and Xiaozhuang thanked him, when he was about to retire and leave, Zhu Cihong suddenly spoke:
"Wait."
Although Qian Qianyi lowered his head, he also sensed that something was wrong with Zhu Cihong and looked up.
Zhu Cihong didn't seem to see Qian Qianyi's gaze, and said in a deep voice: "It's rare that Zhongyi Bo understands righteousness, and I am very comforted, and I give you the surname 'Zhu', I hope you will always remember the word loyalty." ”
Fu Lin was stunned, not knowing what this meant.
Qian Qianyi was also stunned, this was not in the original plan, but it was nothing, so he lowered his head and stopped looking at Zhu Cihong.
However, the little eunuch beside Zhu Cihong looked at the filial piety village that had just taken a bath, faded away the dirt, and the charm still existed, and then looked at Zhu Cihong's eyes with a squinted expression, his heart was cold, and his body trembled slightly.
Xiaozhuang only regarded it as an insult to them by Zhu Cihong, and whispered to Fu Lin to thank him.
Fulin knelt down again to thank him.
"No courtesy, we will all be a family from now on, if there is any difficulty, just come to me, I will make the decision for you." Zhu Cihong said with a smile.
Fu Lin and Xiao Zhuang thanked again and withdrew.
Zhu Cihong looked at Xiaozhuang's back, his eyes flashing hotly.
The little eunuch lowered his head, his face full of fear.
Soon, Honglu Temple selected the courtyard, arranged manpower, and arranged guards for the military department, and sent Xiaozhuang's mother and son in.
Dali Temple, the Criminal Department, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate also carried out the trial of other civil and military generals in an orderly manner, and it can be expected that at least dozens of people will be executed.
It was not until August that the affairs in Liaodong were initially calmed down, and Zhou Zheng freed up his hands to sort out all kinds of things that changed the law.
He put aside Qian Qianyi and convened an enlarged meeting in the cabinet, which was attended by not only the six Shangshu and Shilang, but also the governors and governors of the thirteen provinces.
At the conference, Zhou Zheng put forward the 'four-year plan' and the 'five completions'.
A four-year plan was put forward for the system, military reform, commerce, and agriculture, and the goals were set and the route was planned.
The requirements for the 'revision of the Ming Law', 'land reform', 'amendment of the tax law', 'purging the administration of officials', and 'pacification of the whole country' should be completed within five years.
The meeting determined the merits of the war in Liaodong, Lu Xiang was promoted to Wu Anbo, Man Gui was the new Anhou, and everyone else was promoted, and the reward was unprecedented.
It was decided on the appointment and dismissal of officials at all levels inside and outside the imperial court, including the entry of Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting into the cabinet. The provinces of the country were divided, and the original two capitals and thirteen provinces, Nanjing, were abolished and divided into three. In addition, Liaodong was re-planned into two provinces, and the Ming Dynasty suddenly became seventeen provinces, and at the same time set up eight military garrisons and three large battalions.
At the same time, it was also decided to officially launch the parliamentary council next year, select two people from various provinces to enter Beijing, and formulate relevant regulations, powers and responsibilities.
The number of participants in the Cabinet Chamber continued to expand, from more than 30 people at the beginning to nearly 100 people, and it took nearly half a month.
Subsequently, in the name of the cabinet and signed by all the participants at the meeting, the newspaper was issued and spread to the world.
This circular should be the most formal, grand, and serious 'Zhuwen' this year, vowing to carry out the reform to the end, and almost all the big names in the court have signed it.
This 'change of law' was taken by Zhou Zheng to pacify Liaodong and bring great prestige, and the voice was naturally one-sided, and the opposition was almost inaudible.
The Cabinet and the six ministries then got busy, they need to implement the content of the meeting, issue various detailed laws, regulations and policy interpretations, and make preliminary arrangements for specific actions next year.
The day after the meeting, the action began.
First of all, the Ministry of Officials, with the goal of 'purging the rule of officials', sorted out the institutions of the whole country, added, abolished, merged, and carried out large-scale deletion of officials at all levels, and then the transfer of various officials.
Almost except for the governor of Nanzhili, Lu Daqi, there was no change, and all the governors and governors were dismissed. There are hundreds of people who have been transferred to the newly divided western Liaoning Province to fight on the front line, and many of them are personally named by the big names of the six departments and given public hope, although they are very reluctant, knowing that this is a settlement after the autumn.
Subsequently, the Ministry of Household Affairs announced that it would reduce agricultural taxes on a large scale while focusing on land reform, and exempt the hardest-hit areas such as the northwest for three years. It will increase investment in agriculture, such as chemical fertilizers, ploughing cattle, agricultural machinery, and adopt the policy of the imperial court to make the lowest price of grain, and crack down on illegal activities such as price gouging.
The Ministry of Household Affairs has set up several departments and commercial banks with the private sector to establish a foundation for the promotion of various policies.
The Criminal Department will unite with local agencies to sort out old cases across the country, and at the same time crack down on lawbreakers and gangs, including bandits, robbers, bullies, corrupt officials, and so on.
The Ministry of Industry said that it will further promote the combing and construction of rivers, official roads, bridges and roads in various places, implement the policy of 'work for relief', and invest at least 5 million taels in the next four years!
The Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War also announced their actions one after another, each of which is related to the people's livelihood, important and urgent.
The cabinet ordered the Metropolitan Procuratorate to set up 18 supervision and imperial history groups, leading the team to take turns to supervise the 18 provinces, and set up a special disposal agency, which was personally commanded by Zhou Zheng.
Everything was more strict and harsh than ever.
By September, the capital was almost completely renewed, I don't know how many people were transferred, how many people were arrested, too many dirt and dirt were cleaned up, the inferior gentry and the powerful disappeared, and the 'law' was affirmed like never before.
But as time passed, some yin and yang strange voices also began to emerge, circling endlessly in the corners of the capital.
"You say, won't the Dingguo Guild go further?"
"Dingguo Gong is so prestigious, he can be Wang Mang."
"He has all the power, and the emperor is imprisoned in the palace, I'm afraid he really wants to go further."
"It's possible to go further, but I don't think it's going to be a usurpation, don't you see? At the August conference, Shousuke was not there, and he was afraid that he would be the first assistant. ”
"After being the first assistant, don't you want to be Wang Mang?"
"I see, we are very similar to the end of the Han Dynasty now, and Dingguo Gong should be Cao Cao......"
