After Guo Yunhou saw Wu Xinxin's official document, he thought that it was a blessing for the country to have such a capable official in the Ming Dynasty, so he thought about asking for credit for Wu Xinxin, and wrote a piece of music to submit to the cabinet. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhu Youzhen looked at Wu Xinxin and Guo Yunhou's recital, and smiled bitterly, he knew that Guo Yunhou must not know what Wu Xinxin did, so he would ask for merit for him, threw the two recitals on the dragon case, stood up, and walked around the hall twice, and suddenly thought of letting Wang Chengen cut the court use, so he asked the little eunuch to call Wang Chengen and Wang Tiqian.

After the two arrived, Zhu Youzhen asked them how their errand was doing, and Wang Chengen said respectfully: "Your Majesty, I and Wang Tiqian have already made a list of the list of palaces and palaces, and we have also discussed with Huang Ge Lao in terms of placement, and it is set to cut the palace maids and eunuchs into sixty percent within two months." ”

Zhu Youzhen nodded, and asked again: "Wang Tiqian, people in the palace are panicking at this time. ”

"Your Majesty, although people's hearts fluctuate, the old slave promises that nothing will go wrong." Wang Tiqian said firmly.

Zhu Youzhen saw that the two of them were so attentive, and encouraged them a few words, and then went to the Qianqing Palace to summon the cabinet assistants, Yuan Chonghuan, the secretary of the military department, Hong Chengchou, Fu Wei, the imperial envoy Liu Quan, and more than 20 military attaches in Beijing, including Cao Wenzhao.

This time the convening was extensive, and it took nearly an hour for all the people to gather and enter the temple together.

Everyone rushed into the Qianqing Palace, and when they saw Zhu Youzhen sitting on the dragon seat, they all paid homage and shouted long live.

When he learned of the edict, he thought that the emperor summoned the cabinet ministers to discuss the resettlement plan for the military households in the two places of Shaanxi, Shanxi, and after seeing Cao Wenzhao and a cadre of military generals, he did not know what the emperor wanted, and his heart was also confused, that is, why did the government let so many military generals enter the palace?

The first thing is that Huang Liji and others are very clear about the plan for the resettlement of military households in the guard station, the second thing is to set the policy of sending soldiers from the three battalions of the Beijing Division to Liaodong to defend the territory for two years, and the third thing is the matter of the previous Fujian Shang, the rampant pirates, and the recruitment of peace, so all the senior military attaches in the Beijing Division were summoned to the Qianqing Palace, which can also be understood as a military meeting.

"Everyone loves to be flat."

After all the officials got up, Zhu Youzhen spoke: "I have summoned all Aiqing to come, because there is a big matter to discuss with all Aiqing. ”

None of the courtiers spoke, waiting for Zhu Youzhen's next words.

"The imperial court decided to set up a northwest camp in Chang'an Mansion, Shaanxi, this matter is clear to all the ministers, but there is another thing, I have never mentioned, that is, to cut the military households in Shaanxi and Shanxi, after cutting, how to properly resettle, so as not to cause trouble, I want to ask all Aiqing, there is a good way."

All the people in the new Northwest Battalion know that they want to cut off thousands of households and depose the identity of military households, and the only people who know about this matter are Huang Liji, Li Guopu, and Yuan Chonghuan, so after hearing Zhu Youzhen's words, many people were very shocked in their hearts, but seeing that Huang Liji, who was the first assistant of the cabinet, and Yuan Chonghuan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, did not raise any objections at all, and no one spoke.

Shi Fenglai, one of the cabinet ministers, was not treated well by the emperor, of course, he didn't want Zhu Youzhen to be even more disgusted with him, and not speaking was also a move to protect himself.

Although Hong Chengchou has opposition in his heart, he is a person promoted by Zhu Youzhen, and it can be said that he is his cronies, even if he is unwilling in his heart, it is difficult to open his mouth to oppose it.

And Cao Wenzhao came from the army, and he knew the drawbacks of the Wei system at that time, and he was taking advantage of his mind to depose the thousands of households and reduce the amount of military households, while the rest of the military attachés thought about such national policies, and the first assistant and the military department were not opposed, what else did I risk.

Huang Liji said loudly: "Your Majesty, delete the military households, I have discussed with Li Fuchen and Yuan Shangshu several times, and I have an idea, now I will start the emperor, whether it is feasible or not, I hope that the emperor will make a holy judgment." ”

Zhu Youzhen nodded and motioned for Huang Liji to continue.

"Each of the deleted military households will be compensated with two taels of silver, ten acres of land, and the land will be divided among the original military fields, and the silver compensation will be borne by the household department."

Zhu Youzhen thought that Huang Liji would talk a lot, but he didn't expect to say only this sentence.

"If you act like this, I don't think those military families will agree." Zhu Youzhen said with some hesitation.

Yuan Chonghuan opened his mouth and said: "Your Majesty, you live in the Dragon Court, you are not very familiar with this place, most of these military households do not want to be in this army at all, many of them have thousands of properties, and many people have 100 acres of fertile land, at this time, the imperial court deleted the military households, is taking advantage of their minds, a little compensation, it is enough, as for this matter should be responsible for someone familiar with the local military and politics, Weichen recommended the Shaanxi Guard to command the same person who knows Dai Shihui as the main person, responsible for this matter, the imperial court instructed, Let Dai Shihui leave the military household with no property and no land at home, and if the family has no land and no property, and he is old and weak, he will choose one person from among his sons and nephews to make up for the vacancy. ”

"Then what if the majority of the family has no property and no land, what should the court do?" Zhu Youzhen said angrily, he knew that what Yuan Chonghuan said sounded good, but in fact it was just a pretext.

In fact, Huang Liji and several people also have their own difficulties, giving too much, the court has lost money, giving less, the military households do not agree, the emperor is not satisfied, and they can't please anything.

Zhu Youzhen's questioning made Huang Li extremely speechless, and even Yuan Chonghuan, who has always liked to talk big, was silent.

At this time, Fu Wei, the squire of the military department, came out and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Weichen has an idea. ”

"But it doesn't hurt to talk about it."

"Your Majesty, cut the number of military households, and the military fields will be appropriately reduced, why not let these military households become ordinary people, farm for the imperial court, no different from the people, and collect grain for the northwest army. It can also allow the military households that have been screened out to have a way to make a living, as for the two taels of silver and ten acres of land that Huang Ge Lao said, they can also be distributed together, which can be counted as a reward for the ancestors to serve the imperial court. Fu Wei said angrily.

After listening to Fu Wei's words, Zhu Youzhen felt a little relieved, and he was more relieved that Fu Wei was appointed as the governor of the Northwest Battalion.

"Yuan Chonghuan, do you think this method is feasible?"

"Your Majesty, Weichen has no objection, but you still need to be cautious, although after the military households are cut, they are no different from ordinary people, but they must be treated separately, and the people who levy their food should not be the government, but the new northwest battalion." Yuan Chonghuan opened his mouth and said.

After listening to Yuan Chonghuan's words, Zhu Youzhen felt that it was feasible, so he made a conclusion and instructed Huang Liji to issue an edict to cut military households by the cabinet after Lu Xiangsheng entered Beijing, but Zhu Youzhen did not want Lu Xiangsheng to interfere in the matter of deleting military households, firstly, it was to offend people and treat Lu Xiangsheng's army in the future, and secondly, Lu Xiangsheng did not know the situation in Shaanxi, as Yuan Chonghuan said, Xu Mengchao was derelict in his duties and was dismissed and investigated by the imperial court, so Dai Shihui was the most suitable candidate, stared at by Li Shuo, Dai Shihui never dared to do anything out of the ordinary.

After this matter was settled, Zhu Youzhen said again: "Fujian Governor Ge Jingguo played, Fujian coast, pirates are rampant, the imperial court sailors are useless, they can't deal with these pirates, and the coastal people are persecuted by them, I really can't bear it, so I want to ask everyone Aiqing, how the imperial court should eradicate the sea trouble." ”

After listening to Zhu Youzhen's words, Huang Liji understood why Zhu Youzhen summoned a group of military attachés, because he was worried about the Fujian sea disaster.

Zhu Youzhen's words were backward, and Huang Liji took the lead in saying: "Your Majesty, if there is a sea disaster, we must purge the sailors and eradicate the pirates." ”

"There are hundreds of pirates along the coast of Fujian, more than 100 powerful warships, more than 10,000 war bandits, and the sailors have been abandoned for a long time, how can they fight against powerful pirates for a while?" When he said this, Zhu Youzhen was a little unwilling.

In fact, the imperial court knew that there had been pirates along the coast, but it was powerless to eradicate it, and it was disgraceful.

There will be a more later, and I hope that book friends will support you a lot,
