Turning his head to look at Zhang Whale, Zhu Yijun opened his mouth and asked, "Is this really something, or is it something after your East Factory has been verified?" ”

Zhang Whale saw Zhu Yijun staring at him, and instantly felt a little embarrassed, he was a eunuch who said this, and was stared at by the emperor, Zhang Whale was naturally apprehensive, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, Zhang Whale said: "It is a fact that Wu Dui and the third lady have a very good personal relationship. ”

"The third lady can enter and leave Wu Dui's military camp at will, but this is also a matter of fact."

"It's just that whether the two people have a relationship between men and women, this East Factory has not been able to find out."

Zhu Yijun nodded, and then smiled, Wu Dui and Sanniangzi may have some sympathy for each other, but when it comes to having a personal relationship, Zhu Yijun feels suspicious. In later generations, when the relationship between the two countries was good, the heads of state of each country also said that they were good friends with each other.

But when it came time to turn his face, he was still not polite at all.

Waving his hand, Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "Okay, needless to say, I don't need to talk about these things chasing after the wind and shadows, I don't care about the private affairs of men and women, what messy things have to worry about?" As long as Wu Dui doesn't make a mistake, it's fine. ”

Zhu Yijun just told Zhang Whale, don't talk about this kind of, I don't value it. But don't stop monitoring Wu Dui, if he really makes a mistake, then you're talking about something.

"Yes, Emperor!" Zhang Whale agreed and said respectfully.

After being busy with the affairs of the court push, there is nothing big about the court for the time being, but Zhu Yijun has something to do, and he is ready to put the whole training camp on the agenda. Although it is not realistic to rely on Jingying Gang, it can't be left there to be rotten.

It is also necessary to eliminate the old and weak, empty the empty salary, impostor, and strictly enforce military discipline.

As for whether he can fight in the future, Zhu Yijun is ready to pull it out to fight, and if it is scattered, it will be rebuilt on the basis of veterans. This method is much simpler than disbanding on the spot.

If it is really dissolved, it will cause a lot of turmoil, and Zhu Yijun does not want to do that.

After the Ming Dynasty, there will be a chance to fight, but I am afraid that there will be no chance to temper them?

It's been a bit cold in the capital these days, and there have been clouds in the sky, and there are finally snowflakes falling this morning, and it's not small, it looks like it will be a few days away. As soon as several cabinet scholars arrived in the cabinet, the eunuchs in the palace came to deliver the decree, and the emperor convened several cabinet scholars to discuss the cabinet.

The four cabinet scholars, led by Lu Tiaoyang, came to the warm pavilion of the Qianqing Palace, and as soon as they entered, the four of them saw Zhu Yijun sitting on the dragon chair.

Seeing that the four people were about to salute, Zhu Yijun waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's such a snowy day, it's cold, so don't be polite!" You Aiqing should take care of your body, and go to the hospital if you have nothing to do. ”

"Bian Que has old things in Cai Huangong, and I still rely on a few Aiqing, but I have to take care of my body!"

When the four of them heard this, they hurriedly bowed down and said, "Wait for the emperor!" ”

The atmosphere was also relaxed, and when they saw Zhu Yijun's attitude, the four of them knew that the emperor was looking for the four of them this time, and it was definitely not a reprimand. Now the four of them are worried about something that will stimulate the young emperor, everyone has come from a young age, and naturally knows that the young man is strong and impulsive.

If everyone makes a fuss during Zhang Juzheng's absence, it will be troublesome.

Zhu Yijun's gaze swept over the four people, and said with a smile: "I'm going to train the Beijing camp, I don't know what a few Aiqing think?" ”

Several people were stunned, how could they think about the whole training camp? There was no sign at all! Lu Tiaoyang couldn't help but look at Zhang Whale behind Zhu Yijun with low eyebrows, could it be that these eunuchs did it?

It is impossible for the emperor to suddenly have such an idea, this must be someone who said something!

Zhu Yijun saw them looking at Zhang Whale, and said with a slight smile: "I heard that there are a lot of people in Beijing who eat empty salaries, and there are also people who claim false salaries, I want to check it out and train it, after all, it is Jingying, it is too unseemly and inappropriate!" ”

Suddenly, the four of them were a little confused for a while, so they all sat there and groaned.

Zhu Yijun looked at the four people and didn't urge, he knew that the Ming bureaucracy was fatal, maybe the Ming Dynasty did not have the right to tilt the courtiers of the government and the opposition, but the fateful place of this bureaucracy was more terrible than the ministers.

It would be nice for you to eradicate the powerful ministers, but this kind of bureaucratic system cannot be eradicated.

The point is that you can't eradicate them, all the scholars and officials in the world are these people, you want to use them, what do you use to eradicate you? What they do is make the rules, and this power is much worse than the power on the surface.

From the six ministries and nine kings to the local governors and magistrates, these people are all subservient to the rules they have established.

Once the emperor wants to break this rule, it will be difficult, the key is not that you destroy it, but that you want to use this system to weaken their interests. Later generations know that only those who make the rules really have the say.

Is it okay for the emperor? Anyway, Zhu Yijun doesn't think he has this ability now.

Not to mention anything else, just for tax collection, if you abruptly abolish the tax-free treatment of scholars, you can see if there is chaos.

Zhang Juzheng only paid off the land and recovered the tax arrears, which did not touch the core interests of the scholars, if you want to abolish the tax exemption system for the scholars, you try it. Moreover, the abolition must start with the feudal kings and nobles in various places, and they are basically enemies of the world.

Paying off the land and recovering the arrears are all things that are within the scope of their rules. However, the abolition of the tax exemption system is to subvert and re-establish the rules.

The rule of the tax-free system is the welfare treatment that Zhu Yuanzhang gives to scholars, but it has long been Zhu Yuanzhang's original intention to be played by the scholar group for so many years. Everyone acquiesced to the rule that as long as they were scholars, they did not pay taxes, and they also maintained themselves.

Sending Wei Zhongxian to blackmail, they don't care too much, after all, bribery is the unspoken rule of officialdom. In addition to this, it is for individuals, and it is nothing more than some money matters, which is not considered to touch the rules.

But what about the eunuchs sent by the Wanli Emperor to collect mining taxes in various places? It wasn't that he was beaten to death, but that the magistrate and the gentry colluded to do it.

What can the Wanli Emperor do? It's tantamount to rebellion, but what can you do? Send an army to exterminate? No kidding. This is just the collection of mining taxes, confiscation of farmland taxes, you play a stall into the acres to give it a try.

Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty can play with the moving stalls into the mu, firstly, the people have a short time since the founding of the country, there are a group of loyal soldiers, and there are also Manchu ministers to do things.

The second is because Emperor Kangxi cleaned up from Aobai to the three feudatories, and killed a large number of gentry when he fought the world. If you don't need these gentry and have Manchu ministers, what will Zhu Yijun have? Nothing.

The order is out of the Forbidden City, and the people below will give you two words about whether to do it or not, and take back the power to make rules, and you will be qualified to play the game.

The emperor's system is the rule, but whether this rule can be implemented, whether the people below abide by it, and how to abide by it, this is the key. Now it's you who want to take the mine tax and the tea tax, and the people below will rebound.

Kill the people you collect taxes and see who still collects them, and who dares to collect them.

Zhu Yijun doesn't believe that local officials don't know, and he doesn't believe that local officials can't manage it, the so-called county order that breaks the family, and the order Yin who destroys the door, but not only do they not care, but they also choose to go along with it, and at worst they turn a blind eye.

This is the terrible rule, Emperor Wanli can punish these magistrates, or kill them, but the result will not be too good.

On the one hand, officials from all over the court will oppose it, and secondly, it is easy to provoke popular revolts.

Nowadays, the people don't know that you collect taxes for their good, why it is fashionable for the people to invest in cash, because after the investment, they do not need to pay national taxes, and they only need to pay a lower rent than the national tax.

The land rent is even half lower than the national tax, and the people naturally know how to choose.

However, once it is a year of natural disasters, the landlord will not give you relief food, at most you will be exempted from rent. Even those who are black-hearted will be forced to sell their land, sell their sons and daughters, and at this time they will think of the imperial court.

All the relief food and relief were needed, but there was no tax, and the court had no money.

So there are homeless people, and when there is no food, someone should shout, "The court won't give us a way to live!" Then he carried a knife to find himself, the emperor, and came desperately.

If you don't untie this knot, you'll never have to think about collecting taxes.

Why is the saying that "everything is inferior, only reading is high" so that everyone agrees? It's not how much respect for knowledge, but how much reading can change fate. Once you are admitted to the imperial examination, not to mention the jinshi, just to lift people, it will be a great thing for you.

Basically, there is no need to pay taxes on the land of the lifter, and even if he is poor, he will become fertile overnight.

Every year, by collecting land rent, he can live in a large house and eight houses.

If the emperor wants to abolish the tax exemption system, that is, dig this root again, and the officials will agree? That's how they all came along. Even if industry and commerce are raised and capital is transferred from the land, the commercial tax of the Ming Dynasty is not as good as the agricultural tax.

The imperial court can't talk about taxes, except for creating a large number of rich families, it is useless, it is simply a tax system.

If you want to challenge the rules, you must first be familiar with the rules, and Zhu Yijun is making this attempt now. He wanted to touch the style of Ming officials through this contact, and the four in front of him were the objects that Zhu Yijun wanted to observe.

These four people are cabinet scholars in the Ming officialdom, and they are the top figures of the scholars, Zhu Yijun wants to touch their pulses, and this time the three major battalions are an entry point.

This time, Zhu Yijun's official is the admiral, not the governor, but the admiral, and Zhu Yijun wants to set up a position of admiral above the three major battalions. If it can be done, then it will be done, if it can't be done, then it will be a temptation.

If it doesn't work out this time, Zhu Yijun will do it in the future, this is the first time he has tried to challenge the current rules, although this rule is small.
