If it is three points today, all parties occupy an advantage, although the power of the Jin State is weak, but it has the advantage of being in the middle of the Guanzhong, Hangu and Tongguan, and has the advantage of geographical advantages.

Although it is not enough to swallow the world, it is not bad to hold Guanzhong and Hanzhong and run the Western Regions.

After the failure of the conquest of Shu, the whole Jin State probably realized that fighting for the world was not very suitable for them, and they just wanted to get Guanzhong right, Xu Tu to the west, and cut the northwest.

The Qing Dynasty stood in the north and the Central Plains, and was the center of China in the traditional sense, with northern horse grazing lands and fierce Manchu and Mongolian cavalry.

Strictly speaking, Qing is not a healthy country, because he did not think about making the lives of the people under his rule better, nor did he think about bringing anything to the world, his purpose was to plunder, this is not a healthy country, he is actually an army with a country, a military colonial regime established by the Eight Banners.

In the Manchu Qing Dynasty, everything he did was premised on military conquest, so everything was to satisfy the Eight Banners and other armies first, and their goal was not to rule the world, but to colonize it.

It can be said that this is a kind of Songun politics, and the whole country is controlled by the Eight Banners aristocracy, not that the state has the Eight Banners of aristocrats.

Because he didn't have the heart to govern the country, and fighting war became their main task, the Qing Dynasty was full of aggression and constantly expanded its military colonization in order to satisfy the inflated desires of the Eight Banners nobles.

The Ming Dynasty occupies the southern half of the wall and is an orthodox dynasty with the hearts of the people.

Compared with the Qing Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty was an orthodox dynasty, and fighting a war was only one of the tasks of the Ming Dynasty, and the army was controlled by the Ming court.

From the collapse of the Hongguang Dynasty, the world was eroded, the people's livelihood withered, and the Ming Dynasty only had a few provinces in the southwest, and now it has half of the wall.

Wang Yan cleaned up the old rivers and mountains, not only to recover how many territories, but more importantly, he restored the people's livelihood that was destroyed by the Manchus, which is the huge difference between an orthodox dynasty and the Manchus.

Dolgon could not be more than the newly restored people in the north, and launched a war of aggression in the south, but as an orthodox dynasty, Wang Yan's first concern must be the livelihood of the people.

After returning from Waiguo, Wang Yan went directly to the cabinet and convened the ministers of the seven countries to discuss.

Because of the strengthening of the power of the cabinet, the original small office space can no longer meet the normal operation of the cabinet.

In order to strengthen the efficiency of the operation and work of the imperial court, the six departments plus the Dali Temple, all concentrated around the cabinet, formed a building complex dominated by ten halls such as Wenyuan Pavilion, the Council Hall, the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, the Military Palace, and the Officials' Palace, covering a total area of 800 acres, more than 80 large and small buildings, each department has a pavilion with the right number, and the people who can do things can be found in time and increase efficiency.

In the state affairs of the Ming Dynasty, in addition to major events such as taxation and war, as well as the distribution of funds from various ministries at the beginning of the year, which were authorized by the council, general specific matters were handled and implemented by the cabinet.

The seven scholars in the cabinet actually exercised the functions and powers of the ancient prime minister, similar to the group system of the Song Dynasty.

In the Cabinet, a deliberative voting system is implemented, and general matters can be approved by a majority of scholars, but in the event of a major event, five scholars must be approved, and if the standard is not met, the Prince Regent must make a decision, and if more than five scholars oppose the proposal of the Prince Regent, the Cabinet may not obey the order of the Prince Regent.

The state affairs of the Ming Dynasty were first of all controlled by the council hall, taxation, wars and other major events, as well as the financial budget of the Ming Dynasty for a year, which were all controlled by the council.

Meetings of the Council are not held frequently, generally only once at the end of the year and the beginning of the year, or if there are Council officials who are dissatisfied with the Cabinet and reach a certain number, they can apply for a meeting of the Council to question the Cabinet, and in addition, the Prince Regent has the right to temporarily convene a meeting of the Council Hall when the world encounters a major event.

The specific affairs of the Ming Dynasty were handled by the cabinet within the budget given by the council hall to govern the entire Ming Dynasty.

There are generally two types of cabinet meetings, one is a daily meeting, and the other is an ad hoc meeting proposed by the Prince Regent.

In the Wenyuan Pavilion, Wang Yan and the seven scholars sat down in the counseling hall, and the officials prepared tea and pastries, and then gave each of the seven ministers a dossier.

This is the information of Waiguo that Wang Yan asked Zhuang Wenlie, the prefect of Yingtian, to copy to him, which counts the existing workshops, population and other information of Waiguo.

"Today, I am discussing in Wenyuan Pavilion, and I want to discuss with everyone the resettlement of the poor in Guocheng outside Nanjing. There are also imperial courts that inject funds or give preferential policies to help workshops resume production and encourage the opening of more workshops to solve the problems of people's livelihood. Wang Yan sat in the middle and said directly to everyone in a deep voice, "The situation of Waiguo is in the file, the original more than 500 workshops of various kinds, now only more than 100 have resumed work, and there are 200,000 people in the entire Waiguo City, and there is no livelihood. Such a serious problem, we have only now noticed that this is a dereliction of duty on the part of Lone, and even more so on the dereliction of duty of the court and the cabinet! ”

Seeing that Wang Yan's face was not good, several people hurriedly took the file aside, and the paper rustled through it.

"Your Highness, these days, the cabinet and His Royal Highness have been busy taking over the affairs of Zhejiang, Fujian, and Jiangxi provinces, and they have not paid attention to the situation in Nanjing, but they are suspected of dereliction of duty!" Chen Bangyan stood up and said: "Since Your Highness has raised this issue, our cabinet will hurry up and discuss it, deal with this matter as soon as possible, and make amends, it's not too late!" Your Highness doesn't have to blame yourself too much! ”

Now that Tang Lu is down, Wang Yan is victorious, and there are several scholars in the cabinet, naturally they dare not go against his will.

Wang Yan sat up straight, and his expression softened a little, "This rebellion between the Tang and Lu feuds has caused great harm to the people, not only Nanjing, Nanzhi, but even Zhejiang and Fujian. In the past, the wealthy enclosed land, and a large number of people lost their land, so they relied on workshops in various places and all walks of life to find a living life. ”

Wang Yan glanced at a few people, and then said: "After all, there are only a few people who can be hired by restaurants, shops, and businesses in the city, and most of them require a skill. With so many people, if they are not resettled, as long as someone instigates them, it will inevitably become a catastrophe! In order to settle as soon as possible, King Gu decided to be funded by the imperial court to help some workshops tide over the difficulties, and then give a certain tax reduction policy to encourage the gentry and merchants to open workshops, so as to resettle these people as soon as possible and restore the stability of Nanjing! ”

The newly entered the cabinet Gu Yinxi listened to Wang Yan's words and nodded, "If the production of the workshops in various places is not restored, the folk gentry and the common people who grow cotton and mulberry seedlings will also suffer great losses, I agree with His Royal Highness's opinion." ”

If the workshop closes down, the raw materials of the people will pile up, and the price will inevitably fall, so that the people who grow cotton and mulberry will lose their money. The economy of the Ming Dynasty has formed a system, and if there is a problem in one place, there will be even greater problems in other places.

Wang Yan bowed slightly, feeling that what he said was reasonable, but Du Yinxi said: "However, His Royal Highness asked the court to inject silver money, and the official thought it was inappropriate." By the end of this year, the imperial court's budget had been exhausted, and Huguang and Huainan were still at war, and the imperial court did not have this budget. I looked at the scroll and said that many workshops stopped producing because of the debt collection of the Wude, and I think that the Wude court should be in charge of it, and it cannot affect the overall situation of the court and cause trouble for the court! ”

The background of the Wude is too complicated, and the interests involved are too wide, and the interests of the Wuzhong Army, the Wang family, the He family, the Huguang gentry, the Guangnan merchants, and the military workshops in various places are all involved.

Wang Yan has had too many things recently, and he has to integrate the forces left by Tang Lu and deal with the war with the Manchu Qing Dynasty, so he calmed down and didn't want to deal with the issue of the Wude at this time.

Among the bachelors seated, at least more than half of them are also related to the Wude No., and Du Yinxi naturally knows this, but let the imperial court inject silver money, the first imperial court cannot charge too high interest, and the only way to inject money to win money is to borrow from the Wude No., it is a loss-making transaction at the beginning, the second business has made and lost, and the imperial court has taken the risk, and the third imperial court has injected silver money through the Wude number, which is equivalent to the risk borne by the imperial court, and the local tyrants and inferior gentry behind the Wude can lie down and make a sum of money.

It can be said that he is very dissatisfied with Wude, a monster who sucks the blood of the court and helps the Wang and He families to collect money.

Wang Yan's brows furrowed, his hand knocked on the chair a few times, and suddenly said: "Qianzhuang, a new thing, has a great impact on the imperial court, but my court law has not made relevant regulations on Qianzhuang, which needs to be vigilant!" ”

Wang Yan glanced at Yinxi, "What the Governor's Department said is right, this time a large number of workshops have closed down, and it is indeed related to the fact that Wude is too eager to collect debts, and there is a certain connection, and Wude does need to bear a certain responsibility." Lone's opinion is that the lawsuit of Wude is unsealed by all the debtor workshops that should be sealed by Tianfu! ”

"Your Royal Highness, these workshops owe money to the Wude, and the behavior of the Wude does not violate the laws of the imperial court, and the Wude also needs silver turnover, is it unfair for the imperial court to give such a direct order?" Yan Qiheng stood up and said, Chen Bangyan and Wang Fuzhi also frowned tightly.

Wang Yan waved his hand, "The influence of the money village is very great, it cannot be taken lightly, the loan between the money village and the workshop cannot be regarded as an ordinary loan, the loan cannot be recovered just after it is recovered, and the law must be reformulated." Although Lone asked Ying Tianfu to lift the seizure, it did not mean that the debts of the workshop would be forgiven, but that the workshop should resume production, as long as the workshop survived, it would also be good for Qianzhuang! ”

"Your Royal Highness, even if the seizure is lifted by Tianfu, every time these workshops have a capital injection and start production, they will not survive, the money village has the rules of the money bank, there is no mortgage, the money bank will not be willing to take the risk and inject a sum of money to start the workshop!" Wang Fuzhi said.

Wang Yan's opinion is indeed good, Qianzhuang will seize and resell the assets of the workshop, and he will not be able to recover the full amount of the loan, if the workshop survives, it will be possible to repay the money of Qianzhuang.

After thinking about it, Wang Fuzhi and others felt that it was acceptable, but the key was to see if it could work.

"I have thought about this point, let these workshop owners give up a part of their shares at a low price, recruit rich businessmen and gentry to join the shares, let the shareholders inject a sum of silver in, and the workshop should start from scratch, there should be no problem!" Wang Yan said: "Now in the market, the prices of cotton cloth and silk are rising, and I believe that many people will be willing to participate in the shares and join the workshop." ”

After speaking, Wang Yan looked at everyone, saw that none of them spoke, and there was silence in the hall for a moment, and Wang Yan waved his hand and said, "Prepare to vote!" ”

Several pavilion elders glanced at each other, Du Yinxi raised his hand first, and then Su Guansheng and Zhang Kentang also raised their hands, already more than three scholars, and the rest of the people raised their hands when they saw it.

Wang Yan nodded, "Since it was unanimously passed, then this case can be officially implemented after it is signed by the cabinet and sealed by the Lone King." ”

Saying that, he looked at Wang Fuzhi: "Later, Chen Yonghua, the big treasurer of Wude, will come to the palace, and the royal cabinet can come together." ”

"The subordinate obeys!" Wang Fuzhi hugged his fist.

At that moment, Wang Yan looked at everyone again and said with a smile: "Next, another major matter, about the imperial court to strengthen local control, prohibit people from setting up private torture halls, and crack down on gangs and inferior gentry!" ”
