Just after Song Yingchang, the envoy of the Ming Dynasty, was forced to step down, the Ming Dynasty reappointed a new Lord Jingliu to manage the war in Korea.

However, Lord Shinjinglu has lived in Liaodong for a long time and is reluctant to go to the land of right and wrong in Korea.

Therefore, for the time being, the war in North Korea was still managed by the DPRK itself, and according to the secret agreement, the Japanese were really cowering in the Pusan area.

He did not intend to continue northward, but the fact that he was stepping up the construction of a castle in the Pusan area also attracted the attention of North Korea.

After all, the construction of the city in the Busan area clearly wanted to remain there and not want to leave.

Therefore, at this moment, according to the military strength of North Korea and the remaining military strength of the Ming Dynasty, it is difficult to carry out any crusade and attack on the Japanese invaders again.

Therefore, at this moment, North Korea is full of frustration, especially near the Korean capital.

At this moment, in accordance with the decree of Emperor Wanli, the great power of the upper state, Seonjo of Korea sent His Majesty the prince Gwanghae to the southern part of Korea to establish a sub-dynasty.

Gradually, the hearts of the people of North Korea are all facing the lower three paths, and they are biased towards the residence of King Shizi Gwanghaejun.

At this moment, although His Royal Highness Seonjo of Joseon distributes food in the capital of Joseon, it is also regarded as a show by the ignorant people.

At this moment, a popular uprising was triggered near the Korean capital, and the peasants led by Song Ruzhen launched this popular uprising.

The scale of the uprising was so large that it threatened to attack Hanyang, the capital of Korea, and Song Ruzhen also ordered his soldiers to post posts in various places near the capital.

At this moment, Seonjo, who heard the news, suddenly felt extremely shocked, because the rebellion of the Japanese in the south had not yet subsided.

Now, however, there is a rebellion of this magnitude near the capital where he lives, after the Asan rebels in Chungcheong-do attacked the government.

He robbed all the weapons and rations of the government, and then the power of the uprising became stronger and stronger.

At this moment, after the investigation of Lord Liu Chenglong (Zhao Kun), Song Ruzhen is thirty years old and has gathered 2,000 soldiers and horses in the Tian'an area.

So at this moment, Lord Liu Chenglong (Zhao Kun) was discussing how to crusade against Song Ruzhen, the bandit leader, in the meeting of the Bibian Division.

And Song Ruzhen also knew that the longer the time dragged on, the more unfavorable it would be, so he would lead 2,000 people to attack the Korean capital first.

After that, other rebel military forces would follow in the footsteps of Song Ruzhen and come to the Korean capital to capture the invincible King Seonjo of Joseon.

Therefore, at the meeting of the Bibian Division, a minister directly suggested that the Korean officers and soldiers should be disguised as rebel sergeants.

After blending into the rebels, he found Song Ruzhen, the bandit leader, and sent a bright signal.

It is good to kill Song Ruzhen, the bandit leader, and this method is easy to say, but it is difficult to implement.

And after a simple battle, Song Ruzhen, who had a strength of 2,000 people, was captured by the thief general Li Yi.

The soldiers of the forbidden army were captured, and the 2,000-strong forces of the people quickly collapsed when they saw that the lord was arrested.

And the thief general Li Yi also escorted Song Ruzhen to the capital to meet His Royal Highness Xuanzu so as to ask for merit and reward.

And in the government under the command of Li Yi, these main elements of the rebellion were briefly interrogated.

The rebellious peasants were tortured, and in January 1594 the rebellious leaders were executed.

The Song Ruzhen Rebellion, which was completely put down in January 1594 with blood splattering, was the first large-scale civil strife that occurred in the midst of war.

Although the civil strife was a rebellion of thieves disguised as volunteers, it was caused by war and excessive plunder.

The historical events caused by the dissatisfaction of the people who suffered from the disaster were not yet retreated by the Japanese military forces.

Joseon Seonjo and the Joseon court became more tense simply because of the Song Ruzhen Rebellion.

At this moment, after Liu Chenglong (Zhao Kun) completely quelled the rebellion, he met with His Royal Highness Xuanzu to report on various matters related to the counterinsurgency.

Joseon Seonjo praised Yoo Sung-ryong (Cho Kun) with great satisfaction for his positive response and collected the property from the rebels.

It is necessary to give all the officers and soldiers involved in the counterinsurgency, but at this moment, Liu Chenglong (Zhao Kun) is bitterly speaking to His Royal Highness Xuanzu.

Most of these rebels were ordinary peasants who could not afford to pay rent, labor taxes and tribute, and could not survive.

If the labor tax and tribute are abolished, this phenomenon can be completely prevented, and the blades of the common people can be avoided from facing the Joseon court and His Royal Highness Seonjo.

What's more, the people of North Korea were starving in the era of war, so how could they forcibly collect rent and pay tribute.

Only if the people can survive can the whole country continue to exist.

Moreover, tempering is definitely not a gift from God, but a symptom of the crisis caused by the individual's own error in judgment.

and ignored the trouble he asked for, and His Royal Highness Seonjo followed Yoo Sung-long's advice.

Only then did he realize the reason why he lost the support of the Korean people, and at this moment he was also thinking about the Korean Seonjo who was renovating on a large scale.

At this time, while it was still in a state of war, domestic innovation in Korea was indefinitely prevented.

At this moment, Lord Liu Chenglong (Zhao Kun), who is waiting for His Royal Highness Seonjo's reply, is waiting in silence for the innovative method advocated by Liu Chenglong to be truly implemented.

And in view of the historical roots of the Song Ruzhen Rebellion, Yoo Sung-ryong (Cho Kun) also found a basic way to change the status quo in North Korea.

In the following meeting, the ministers also had a very sharp debate on the content of the innovation proposed by Yoo Sung-ryong (Cho Kun).

If there is support for Lord Liu Chenglong (Zhao Kun), there will inevitably be opposing forces.

The content of the innovation that Liu Chenglong (Zhao Kun) wants to implement is the exemption law and the rice tax law, which are all related to the interests of the two classes of adults and nobles.

And Liu Chenglong (Zhao Kun), who violated the interests of those nobles, will also step into a very difficult situation at any time.

And Liu Chenglong (Zhao Kun)'s difficulties first come from those who are nobles and the royal family.

A group of nobles came to the palace of the capital and raised the banner against Liu Chenglong (Zhao Kun).

At this moment, he demanded that the implementation of the law of exemption and the law of rice tax be stopped, so as to safeguard the supreme interests of the aristocracy.

There are also nobles who even demand that Liu Chenglong (Zhao Kun) be removed from his post at this moment.

Because paying tribute is a method that has been practiced by the Joseon court for the past two hundred years.

However, these nobles believed that the worst thing that would happen to the method of paying tribute without authorization would lead to the collapse and destruction of the state system.

At this moment, His Royal Highness Seonjo thinks that things have reached such a big point that it is better to stop there, and Liu Chenglong (Zhao Kun) proposed at this moment that the innovation must be implemented.

Because only by taking the initiative to innovate will he not be led away by the two classes of adults and nobles, His Royal Highness Seonjo had no choice but to summon those noble representatives.

Let's discuss the necessity of the reform of the Korean court, and at this moment, it is necessary for Lord Yoo Sung-ryong (Zhao Kun) to fight the Confucianism.

So Liu Chenglong (Zhao Kun) will fight against the representatives of the nobility who only care about their own interests in the rice tax law.

Therefore, with the strong support of Seonjo, Yoo Sung-ryong (Cho Kun)'s rice tax law was implemented for the first time since the founding of the country in 1594.

And thanks to the huge resistance of the two classes of adults and nobles, the implementation of the rice tax law also made it possible for the Korean people, who had suffered in the past because of Nagong, to finally take a breath.

Therefore, Seonjo also received widespread praise from the Korean people for implementing the rice tax law.

But it also made Lord Liu Chenglong make too many enemies, which also made Lord Liu Chenglong (Zhao Kun) not have a good time in the future.

And this also started Lord Liu Chenglong (Zhao Kun) and His Royal Highness Seonjo, together because of the withdrawal of the seal letter, which caused a lot of turmoil for a period of time.

And in this turmoil, His Royal Highness Xuanzu and Lord Liu Chenglong (Zhao Kun) can completely solve the problems and troubles created by Xuanzu.

It depends on the method used by His Royal Highness Seonjo and Lord Yoo Chenglong (Zhao Kun), and it is unknown which method will be used in the process of solving the problem.
