Chapter 229 - Welcoming the Movement

Of course, even the real June Flying Snow couldn't stop Yang Qing from killing their butcher's knife......

That's what cleaning is all about.

It is better to kill three thousand by mistake than to miss one.

History proves that what is missed because of a moment of kindness often becomes a fatal bane, and there are too many such examples, so Yang Qing will not make such a mistake, even if he needs Jin Yiwei to fabricate a crime, he must cut the grass and eradicate the roots. In fact, the real responsibility of a secret agency like Jinyiwei is not to verify the truth, but to verify the "truth" that the ruler needs, even if the truth is in quotation marks, if the truth is not in quotation marks, then what else does Jinyiwei need to do?

That's politics.

There's nothing to talk about kindness, morality, law, or anything like that.

Only need or don't need.

The Jinyi guard is in the service of the ruler, not in the service of justice.

"Am I not bad!"

Yang Qing hugged the princess and sighed.

He found that he was getting more and more evil, and it seemed that he had not done anything good in the recent past when he had made Jinyiwei, except for beating people into tricks, fabricating charges, forging confessions, and then raiding some innocent people's homes. Ninety-nine percent of the hundreds of people who were beheaded this time were wronged, which is simply the template for the villains in those black-and-white stories!

The princess looked up at him, playing with his beard playfully.

"Don't kill my brother, okay?"

She said weakly.

Qian Qianyi and other five Shangshu and the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate jointly played, thinking that the current situation has turned from dangerous to safe, and Nanjing is no longer in danger, and asked to send an envoy to Chang'an to ask the Holy Driver to return the capital to Nanjing, and even they organized a large number of scholars to jointly petition. Of course, this petition was not submitted to Chengtianmen Fuque, but through Dengwengu, and local officials from all over the country were constantly sending letters asking for the dispatch of envoys to welcome the holy car back to the capital, in short, they were launching a large-scale campaign to welcome the holy car......

In other words, Princess Kunxing is not a child, of course she understands what this is for.

She really doesn't care if she is in prison or not.

But she also knew that Yang Qing would definitely not welcome her brother back, and now that she was her sweetheart's fiancΓ© and her own brother on the other, it would be difficult for her to be caught in the middle.

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Yang Qing patted her dissatisfied.

"Anyway, the first emperor also gave you to me, how could I kill his son, if Li Zicheng is really willing to let him go, then I will welcome him back to Nanjing, as long as he doesn't want to kill me after he comes back, I won't do anything to him." But if he wants to kill me under the bewitchment of those ministers, then don't blame me, I will definitely not sit still. ”

He kissed the princess on the lips and said.

It's not a big deal to welcome back Zhu Cihong, now he controls everything from the Jinyi Guard to the army, at least the people of Huangzhuang have regarded him as a reborn parent, and the vast majority of the people around Nanjing regard him as a god, he really can't think of anything else he needs to worry about. What Zhu Cihong has is just a great righteousness, but this has no meaning in front of real power, even if he comes back, it is a big deal to be raised by Emperor Han Xian, and he is obedient, and it is not a big deal if he is disobedient. And he can also use this matter to achieve some goals that he has not achieved before, after all, if he agrees to welcome back Zhu Cihong, then Donglin Qunxian also has to come up with something to exchange interests.

Princess Kunxing didn't say anything more, she actually didn't think too much, she was just afraid that Yang Qing would send Jinyiwei to be her brother in advance.

As for the future......

In the future, her brother wants to kill Yang Qing, so she will be the first to refuse!

But this result is very bad for Zhang Yan.

", don't come to see me again!"

The Queen Mother shouted angrily.

"Don't make a fuss!"

Yang Qing then stretched out his arm to hold her, and then threw her onto the bed in her scratching.

"You can't live in the palace!"

He pressed to get up and scratch his queen mother.

"Don't live in the palace?"

Zhang Yan calmed down instantly.

Yes, she can't live in the palace! Why did she have to live in the palace? She is the emperor's aunt and not her own mother, she has already devoted herself to cultivation, how can she concentrate in the palace, especially after the emperor comes, there must be more people in this palace. This all affected her cultivation, she had to find a quieter place, anyway, all she wanted was Yang Qing, and moving out of the palace to find a good place to play unscrupulously.

"Marquis Zhongyong, the mourning family looks at the scenery of Xuanwu Lake well, and wants to go there to concentrate on cultivation, should the Marquis of Zhongyong clean up an island for the mourning family and build a new palace?"

She said while holding Yang Qing's collar.

"It's too far, you still have to go to the city, and you have to take a boat across the lake."

Yang Qing said.

"Won't you build a causeway for the mourners? The Huanzhou to the shore of the lake is only a few dozen zhang, and the mourning family ordered you to open a new gate on the city wall, and then build an embankment to lead to the Huanzhou. Then clean up Liangzhou to the mourning family, and then build a new palace that conforms to the identity of the mourning family, there is no will of the mourning family in the future, no one is allowed to set foot in Liangzhou, the mourning family is old, needs to recuperate, can not be disturbed, you know? ”

Zhang Yan grabbed him and said.

"Queen Mother, it's ten miles away from my house!"

Yang Qing said.

"I don't care, I just want to be there, and I have to say hello every night!"

Zhang Yan said viciously.

After speaking, she dragged Yang Qing down, and then turned over......

After getting the two women done, then Yang Qing should talk to the Donglin sages about some exchange of interests, his goal is very simple, that is, to implement the imperial examination reform that has been blocked before, one subject in three years! The examination in February this year, there are still a little more than two years left, but before the imperial examination, there is still a need to take the examination, although the current Ming control area is not as big as before, but this is also a really big project, must be started in advance, it is said that it will take a few months for the Yunnan people to come out of the examination and walk here!

"Marquis Zhongyong, it's not too late to welcome back the Holy Driver!"

Gu Xichou said.

"What if Li Zicheng doesn't let him go?"

Yang Qing said.

"Marquis Zhongyong, such a reform, the number of Jinshi has increased fivefold, the imperial court is now in this place, why are there so many official arrangements? At this time, there is still a shortage of new science and technology scholars! ”

Zhang Guowei said.

"This matter is easy, just set up a few more official positions in the locality, a county must have a county order, a county cheng, a master book, a canonical history, and a deputy inspection, these are six official positions, but in fact, which county can match these six official positions? There are almost none, and there are even part-time ones, plus the second official of the state capital, and now that the governor has become a fixed position, then if the governor and the political envoys and other divisions are all combined, the five-fold increase in jinshi is enough, right? What's more, there are now so many fewer provinces, and the number of Jinshi per subject itself has also been greatly reduced. ”

Yang Qing said.

The number of Jinshi is limited by the examination area, and Zhu Yuanzhang found that all Jinshi were southerners after taking the first subject, which eventually caused trouble among the northern scholars, and later simply distributed them proportionally.

"How much more do you have to increase?"

Zhang Guowei said.

"Is the imperial court short of money now? I remember that after the summer tax was over, there was even a surplus this year. ”

Yang Qing said.

The Ming Dynasty's taxes finally exceeded the expenditures.

According to the calculation of the summer tax that has just been completed, the annual tax revenue must exceed the expenditure, and it has to be said that a gentry paid the grain as an errand, which instantly made the Ming Dynasty finance complete the reversal. This is only the case that the inventory of the hidden fields in Nanzhili has been completed, and then the larger-scale inventory of the hidden fields is still being carried out at the same time as the inventory of the official fields, and it is expected that this work will be completed in the areas controlled by the Ming Dynasty in the next two years. At that time, according to Yang Qing's estimate, the tax revenue had to be doubled, and I have to say that the emperors of the Ming Dynasty ......

Well, Yang Qing has no right to despise them.

After all, he was open, for the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, at this time I don't know how many people fell into the water, even if he was open, it also led to an extra court in the south, and the north would rather welcome foreign rule, and the happiness of Sichuan was thrown into the arms of the Liukou, and he fought with a group of scholars and scholars in Nanjing every day.

The collection of a gentry tax can completely solve the fiscal problem.

It is estimated that the emperors of the Ming Dynasty were very clear about this.

But they don't dare!

They are also afraid of falling overboard!

Up to now, a total of nineteen emperors have fallen into the water, and one has eaten red pills, as for the burned to death, needless to say, the emperor is not easy to be, and the strange proportion of this cause of death is more than a quarter.

"But it wasn't a war."

Zhang Guowei said.

Indeed, there were almost no wars this year, except for the unworthy battles in Korea and Gannan, all other fronts maintained a truce, although the reorganization of the new army also cost a lot of money, but the cost of fighting and not fighting is not the same level.

"But the tax revenue of the imperial court also continued to increase."

Yang Qing said.

Zhang Guowei was speechless.

He actually knew that all these officials were all equipped and formed a system, but it didn't cost much money.

"Many of these official positions are eight-rank and ninth-grade, do all the dignified scholars go to be these sesame officials? Where is the dignity of Jinshi? ”

Xu Shiqi sneered.

"Yu Qiugong, I don't dare to agree with what you said, is that Jinshi more noble than others? Jinshi is a scholar, is he not a scholar if he is a scholar? If you can raise someone to be a second officer, then you can't be a second officer? I don't think the Jinshi who are sent to exercise first now have done a better job than lifting people, otherwise I would have asked the newspaper to publish all our words, so that everyone in the world can comment on them? ”

Yang Qing said.

"I didn't mean that!"

Xu Shiqi hurriedly said.

If this goes out, he won't be sprayed to death by those talents!

"Since we all have our own opinions, it is better to change the way, this imperial examination is related to the people of the world, then just like when we elected the princess to supervise the country, let the people of the world decide, let's hold another meeting of the four peoples. This time there is enough time, let's expand the scope of the Four People's Assembly, and the Jinyi Guard will send people to various places to draw lots, and each of the four people in each county will choose one, and finally gather in Nanjing to adjudicate on this matter, and the imperial court will be responsible for their round-trip expenses and accommodation, and each person will be given an additional subsidy. If the Four People's Congress agrees with my plan for the reform of the imperial examination, then we will do so, and if the Four People's Congress does not agree, then I have nothing to say. ”

Yang Qing said.

"Marquis Zhongyong's proposal is not bad."

Shui Tailiang said with a smile.
