Zhang Qianfang still doesn't quite understand that restricting the power of the government is not the same as limiting the power of the emperor? Why did the emperor enact such a law to tie his hands?

Lu Xiangsheng said: "Your Majesty Shengming." The people of the country know that they are fighting for themselves, and they will naturally fight bravely, knowing that their property is protected by the imperial court, and they will naturally support the imperial court and support Your Majesty. “

Zhu Youxiao said with a smile: "In the future, I can't raid my house casually, and I can't requisition the property of my subjects at will." But the people of the world do not have to worry about their hard-earned wealth being embezzled all the time. Mencius said that those who have constant property have perseverance, and I give up this little profit, but it makes the people feel stable in their hearts, and they are more willing to work hard to accumulate wealth, so that the people are rich and the country is richer, so in the end, I still earned. “

The three of them knelt down together and said: "Shengming is no more than Your Majesty, and the ministers congratulate the world, Daming, and Your Majesty." “

Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and said: "Get up, I know the meaning of this law, there will be more laws in the future, maybe it will be unexpected to you, but don't be surprised, I want every Ming person to be proud of growing up in such a country." Everyone will be the king of their own world. “

The three of them glanced at each other and did not comment on the emperor's statement that everyone would be the king of their own world. This is very taboo, the emperor can say it, but the courtiers can't comment casually.

The next day, the emperor issued an edict and named Zhang Qianfang as the mayor of Zhenyuan, the governor of Zhenyuan, the title of Zhenyuanhou is very understandable, but the governor of Zhenyuan makes many people puzzled. Yan Siqi is the governor of the East China Sea and Beihai, Zheng Zhilong is the governor of the South China Sea, and there is always a region, but the governor of Zhenyuan is a little unclear.

The holy decree also ordered Zhang Qianfang to be temporarily stationed in Quanzhou, but it was only an empty governor's mansion, and there was no one in the army. Some people think that Zhang Qianfang should have done something to cause the saint to be gone.

Ten days later, the emperor proclaimed the "Ming Private Property Protection Law" throughout the country, which stipulated that the private property of the Ming people was protected and no one could encroach on it. In addition to violating the law, the government may not interfere with the property rights of the people of the Ming Dynasty for any reason. Moreover, the private residence of the Ming people is not allowed to enter without the permission of the owner. If someone enters a private house without permission, the owner will first give a warning, and if he does not leave after the warning, the owner has the right to kill him on the spot.

"Daming Weekly" published the full text of the law in its entirety, and wrote this paragraph in the editor's note: If you are a law-abiding citizen of the Ming Dynasty, you don't have to worry about the government embezzling your property in any way. For example, you have a small house, it may be very dilapidated, the wind blows in, the rain drifts in, and you can't do anything about it. But the government can't enter the house without your request, even if it's there to help you tile. Or if our esteemed Emperor Majesty wants to enter this house, he must first get an invitation from his master. To put it simply, it is a sentence: the wind can enter, the rain can enter, and the emperor cannot enter.

The promulgation of this law did not cause much of a stir, and private property, which had always been protected, was now only emphasized in the form of a special law. But the newspaper's editor's note caused an uproar. A large number of letters from readers denounced the lack of respect for His Majesty the Emperor, arguing that the Emperor should be free to enter as he wished, and that there was no question of the need for the invitation of the master.

This kind of emperor exceptionalism is actually common sense in this era, because the whole world belongs to the emperor. But Zhu Youxiao wants to change this way of thinking, but he can't deny the saying that the whole world is not the king's land, because this will really make the legitimacy of the court questioned. Therefore, he wrote a letter from a reader in the name of Mr. Xiao Qi in the next issue of the newspaper, arguing that the wind can enter, the rain can enter, and the emperor cannot enter should be understood in this way: after the emperor gives the goods to the subjects, the items are the private property of the subjects, and the emperor will certainly not encroach on the private goods owned by the people, which is the consciousness that an emperor should have.

Of course, if the subjects love the emperor and are willing to welcome the emperor into their house, or even take pride in it, it is obviously a good thing and an honor for an emperor. But in the future, if the emperor did something that made the subjects dissatisfied, the subjects refused to invite the emperor into their house. And as an emperor, of course, it is impossible to punish his subjects for this matter, because it is not a crime in the first place. On the contrary, the emperor should think about why he was rejected. Aren't you good enough?

Such an explanation did not please those who objected, and they began a long argument in the newspapers with some supporters of Mr. Xiaoqi's claim. Zhu Youxiao no longer cares about this matter, and laws can be formulated and then promulgated, and it is obviously a long-term matter to change some ideas in people's minds.

According to the survey statistics of Dongchang, the Economic Survey Bureau, the promulgation and implementation of this law has indeed made most people very happy, and from now on, as long as they do not break the law, their property is as stable as Mount Tai, and can be passed on to future generations.

It's just that in the imperial court, most officials don't quite understand the editor's note in the newspaper, and most of the senior officials know who Mr. Xiao Qi is, and they don't understand the emperor's statement in the newspaper, which means that the emperor is reducing his power? At the same time, the emperor was reducing the power of the government.

Of course, Zhu Youxiao knew that the officials would not obediently act in accordance with this law. He specially explained to Dali Temple, and he must report the judgment of all cases related to this law in a timely manner. The Dongchang Jinyiwei and the Independent Commission Against Corruption went everywhere to investigate the implementation of this law after its promulgation, and as long as there was a violation, it was handed over to Jinyiwei for prosecution.

Soon after, a butcher in Lulong County killed a man in his home. He claimed that the man had trespassed into his home and that he had warned him to quit, but he ignored him and had no choice but to kill him.

Jin Yiwei immediately launched an investigation, and found that the man who was killed was the butcher's creditor, and that the butcher invited him to discuss the repayment of the debt, and the butcher did not want to repay the debt, and when he heard about the newly promulgated law, he had evil intentions and killed him at home.

Originally, this matter would not have been revealed, because the wife and children of the murdered man had returned to their hometown to save relatives, and the butcher quietly agreed with him in the middle of the night to discuss it at his house the next night.
