More than one-third of the officials of the Ministry of Officials were all put into the Jinyi Wei Imperial Prison, which was only the beginning of the official purge, of course Yang Qing could not arrest only these few, these people were all arrested on the charge of accepting bribes and selling official positions, so what about those who offered bribes, those who obtained official positions by illegal means from them?

That's the one to catch too.

In Jinyiwei's prison, under the pressure of various means, those arrested officials quickly confessed one after another, and then Jinyiwei, who held these confessions, quickly arrested more officials and put them in prison.

At the same time as they arrested people, the officials controlled by Ma Shiying quickly filled the gaps of these people with non-Jinshi officials, and in the cheers of these non-Jinshi officials who were promoted, the civil official system originally controlled by Donglin Qunxian began to collapse little by little.

In the face of Yang Qing's aggressive attack, Donglin Qunxian continued to remain silent.

They didn't resist.

In the past, he could still launch a righteous young man to conduct demonstrations and petitions and instigate a local gentry to do things, but now people are playing by themselves and no longer follow behind Donglin Qunxian, and Huang Zongxi is even preparing a Datong Society......

In fact, it is a political party.

But the word party was actually not a good word in ancient times, and it was only used when attacking a certain group of people to do things together. At this time, there were a lot of Fushe, several societies, Yuzhang Society, and so on, which were theoretically discussing literature, but in fact they were the primary version of the political party, and Huang Zongxi was forming the Datong Society based on the Fushe group and using his local autonomy as the political program. Moreover, it is quite popular in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, especially among the large and small landlords in Nanzhili, these guys are like sages, they have their own newspapers, and all of them have money, and then they desperately engage in propaganda.

At present, the actual action is to connect some local officials to prepare to leave Yang Qing aside and give him his eldest brother in the form of a joint letter.

It is requested that the selection of the deputies of the four peoples be revised.

They supported the deputies of the four peoples, but the method of drawing lots was obviously too irresponsible, and they wrote to Zhu Cihong, asking for the change to an electoral system and limiting the qualifications of the deputies of the four peoples. At least tenants should not be added, it should be changed to the standard of owning land, that is, the current set of things engaged in by the British Parliament, if you want to become a representative of the four peoples, you must first have a certain area of arable land.

Yang Qing could be sure that they had no connection with the British, which was purely their own thoughts, so it can be seen that the Eastern and Western gentry were also on the same path.

Even Zhu Zhiyu has gone to Chang'an.

Of course, this letter is not yet completed, and they need to connect many local officials, which will take some time to complete, but they can't wait to go to Zhu Cihong and show His Majesty the emperor the loyalty of the Jiangnan gentry to him. Although they have only scraped together less than 500,000 taels of driving fees so far, this does not mean that they are not loyal to the Son of Longxing, and the reason why this situation occurred was mainly because those traitorous ministers were obstructed. In short, Zhu Shunshui will put the blame on the traitorous ministers, he is a great Confucian, and he originally wanted to be an idol of the Japanese country in history, and he will solve this kind of trivial matter perfectly.

Zhu Zhiyu went to pave the road first, and then completed it in series here, and handed over the joint letter, it was best to fool Zhu Cihong, who didn't know anything, to send the holy decree.

Then do you Yang Qing listen to it?

Yang Qing is too lazy to care about their small actions, these guys make the Ming Dynasty so accustomed that they have forgotten what is said in this world, and the edict issued by Zhu Cihong in Chang'an is useless, because if you don't cover the jade seal, it will definitely be useless, although the Ming Dynasty did not pass on the jade seal......

It was gone in five generations.

It is said that after Tang Li Congke took it and burned it to death, and then its whereabouts are unknown.

After those are all in the past dynasties for the need to make their own, at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang made seventeen different uses in one breath, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty didn't care much about this, when someone offered a jade seal that is said to be a national heirloom, and then in the words of those officials, we opened the country by ourselves, which need to use these old things, and then rewarded five taels of silver. Later, some were added one after another, and finally a total of twenty-four were made, these twenty-four were all taken by Chongzhen to Nandu, all of them were in the palace maid of Shang Baojian, the most commonly used is the treasure of life, on the desk of Princess Kunxing, Yang Qing held her and stamped most of them with this one.

In short, all the holy decrees issued by Zhu Cihong from Chang'an must be stamped here to count.

If you don't stamp it, it doesn't count.

As for Zhu Cihong, if he came to Nanjing to issue such a holy decree......

Your Majesty wants to rebel?

Yang Qing didn't say this.

A puppet in his hands, what is the matter with him really wanting to turn the sky upside down? Relatives can't do it, relatives have to be honest, as an emperor, you must remember that you must not rebel, and the emperor who rebels will not end well.

As for the gentry of several societies plus Huguang, in fact, they are also forming political parties, but they have not yet made a clear program, but they are unanimous in not opposing Yang Qing. They belong to the kind of people who suffocate and make a fortune, enjoying the prosperity brought by Yang Qing, but they also disdain to join the Northern Party, and they will not be stupid enough to resist Yang Qing. On the contrary, with the help of Yang Qing's emphasis on industry and commerce, they are gradually getting rid of the traditional role of the land gentry and changing towards a free industrial and commercial group.

But they won't really support Yang Qing either.

That way, no matter who wins or loses, they won't be losers, so it's a group of grass on the wall.

In fact, in Yang Qing's view, these talents are the most threatening, because they are taking the smartest path.

In essence, they are no different from the North Party.

Yang Qing's Northern Party is also united in interests.

These military ministers who moved south from the north had no land in the south, and from the very beginning Yang Qing opposed them to annex land to obtain wealth, and they also had nothing to annex, the really valuable land was in the hands of those gentry, and what was the use of the remaining worthless land annexation? Song Quan even abandoned the Song family's land in Guide, and Gao Hongtu's land in Jiaozhou was directly sold to Huangzhuang, and they were no longer the old landlord class. On the contrary, Yang Qing used the shares of industrial and commercial enterprises to obtain far more wealth than the annexation of land, from banks to maritime trade to various light and heavy industries, all of which can be described as rolling money, not to mention, a bank alone is almost like a mountain of gold. In fact, the Northern Party is a political group formed by a joint-stock monopoly consortium with him as the core and in a sense with the support of power.

If the interests of the Northern Party are equivalent to those monopolies in modern times, then the group of people in the several societies represents the private enterprises that are on the rise.

They are certainly the most threatening.

These people don't necessarily want to support the Cosmos, they also want what the latter wants, for example, they are dissatisfied with the exclusive right of the Imperial Bank to issue notes, they think that banks should be opened widely, and every bank can issue banknotes, anyway, it is a certificate, just like in the original history before the Federal Reserve, any bank with the title of the national can issue banknotes, but the coinage right must belong to the state.

But they are more cunning, and they don't want to directly clash with Yang Qing for this trivial matter for the time being, after all, the stability and prosperity brought by Yang Qing is the premise for them to also have a lot of money, and no one has to play in case they change the emperor and return to the state of the past.

Anyway, they're very conflicted!

"Classical agricultural estates, liberal capitalism, state socialism, are getting more and more exciting!"

Yang Qing said with emotion.

He just played National Socialism.

The agricultural estate system represented by the Romans Society, but this agricultural estate is not necessarily just growing food, they are actually a group of landlords who have survived the old era, trying to protect their vested interests.

They are the most backward.

However, in this era, their strength is the strongest, after all, the end of the Ming Dynasty is at most the budding capitalism, and they are the layer of soil pressed on it.

The societies represent liberal capitalism.

They do have the brightest future, but at present, their strength is the weakest, so they are the most honest, because they have to rely on Yang Qing to maintain an environment conducive to their development, the old system is not suitable for them, and they are more vigilant than Yang Qing to the Ming Emperor. If the Son of Heaven of Longxing really had to take down Yang Qing, a powerful minister, like those reversed Ming monarchs in history, the Donglin Qunxian would cheer, and the Datong society would express limited praise, but these people in several societies would cry for Yang Qing.

That's the difference.

It is said that the world has been tossed out of serfdom by Yang Qing, liberal capitalism, classical communism, feudalism, and confrontation between all parties, and now there are three kinds of land in the area controlled by the Ming Dynasty, I have to say that it is indeed wonderful enough, and the people of Daming are experiencing the original history in just a few years, spanning hundreds of thousands of years.

Of course, the people of the Ming Dynasty are not interested in caring about these things!

The most important thing is to have a full meal!

"Is this really gone?"

Princess Kunxing in Yang Qing's arms looked at the last bit of chocolate on the plate with a depressed expression.

"This batch is gone, and the next batch will take at least half a year to arrive."

Yang Qing said.

"But didn't you mean to get seeds?"

Princess Kunxing said dissatisfiedly.

"You must know that the Spanish royal family has hidden the secret of this thing for a hundred years, they first learned to make this thing from the Indians in South America in the seventh year of Jiajing, and planted it themselves on a small island, but it was not until the thirty-fourth year of Wanli that it was learned by other countries for the first time, and it was not until the fifteenth year of Chongzhen that it was transmitted to the third country, and the British would not give us seeds, and they might not be able to get them if they really wanted to."

Yang Qing touched her head and said.

"I don't care, I'm going to eat this every day in the future!"

The Governor of the Ming Dynasty and the Governor of the Five Armies grabbed her shoulder as the chief of staff and commander of the Jinyi Guard, and said with a sneer.

"Uh, okay, I'll let the Navy build a few more battleships, and we'll send a fleet to South America to grab it."

Yang Qing hurriedly said.

"Rob, must rob!"

Jian Guo said in the style of Wu Meiniang.
