In the first year of the Great Song Dynasty, that is, in the year 1264 of the Western calendar, when the people of the Great Song Dynasty cheered for their empress......

They do have reason to cheer.

After all, ordinary people don't care how much impact this empress has on Confucian principles, they only know that this empress is known for loving the people like a son, and as Yang Feng's vase over the years, the main job of his female apprentice is to engage in charity, the school in Gushan, the orphanage under the national teacher, the nursing home and even the public hospital, all of which are in charge of the princess of Shengguo. Whether it is the people of Lin'an or the outsiders who come to Lin'an, they will often see the beautiful princess with a group of orphans, walking through the streets of Lin'an, or she rides in a fairytale carriage, stops beside a beggar, brings him warm clothes, or helps a trembling lonely old man to walk onto her pumpkin-shaped four-wheeled carriage.

Youth, beauty, kindness have become the hallmarks of this princess.

Such an empress is certainly popular.

The common people don't care about the mess when they are idle, they support whoever is good to them, a princess like a saint and a prince who is said to have a bad brain and like women, who is more popular.

Anyway, how many people know what the prince looks like? And the portrait of the princess is posted on the wall of many people's homes.

As for governing the country......

This doesn't matter, there is a national teacher behind them!

What's more, even the common people understand that the promotion of the princess to the queen means that the national teacher will definitely not leave them in a short time, and the national teacher will never be in danger if he does not leave the Great Song Dynasty. And the national teacher will bring more immortal seeds, which is very important, from Chengdu and Xianzun those disciples to spread all kinds of immortal seeds, has begun to really affect people's lives, corn in the mountains of Fujian, potatoes in Sichuan, sweet potatoes in the Shandong Peninsula, these have begun to expand rapidly, not to mention those long-staple cotton, all kinds of fruits and vegetables, just a pepper makes the mountain people in Guizhou cheer.

And with the empress's accession to the throne, all this will continue, and the good life will also continue, so why don't the people cheer?

What are the grievances of those Confucian scholars?

Newspapers in various places and primary schools that are popularizing compulsory education have long since ended their monopoly on the right to speak, everyone knows that Confucianism is just one faction in the hundred schools of thought, everyone knows how much water Confucius's status as a sage, everyone knows that the Great Song Dynasty is respected by Taoism, and Confucianism has nothing to say about sacredness, and their complaints are destined to drown in the cheers of the common people.

And in the cheers of the people of the Great Song Dynasty, Kublai Khan also quickly defeated his younger brother, Ali Buge fled to the Western Regions again, and then Kublai Khan returned to Kaiping, and changed the name of the country from Mongolia to Yuan, and then took Kaiping as the capital, and built Dadu as the official capital based on Chang'an City, thus completing the sinicization of the regime. Because of the psychological shadow caused by Yang Feng, the Yuan army stopped expanding on the Song-Mongolian border and turned to a full-scale defense, using Yanshan, Taihang Mountain, Qinling and Daba Mountain to establish a defensive line, and at the same time turning Henan into a buffer zone, with Guo Kan, Di Hun and other Han army princes to maintain a few points, but the main force of the Mongol army used Luoyang as a base to block the Kunhan Road. After completing the contraction defense, Kublai Khan changed the main goal of his expansion to the Western Regions, and fought with Ali Buge and the Golden Horde for control of the Chahatai Khanate, and in the years that followed, his army fought mainly in the Tianshan Mountains, relying on the logistical support of Guanzhong and Hedong, and finally completed complete control of the Chahatai Khanate.

During this period, the Song and Yuan dynasties remained peaceful.

Even during the rebellion of Dali's relics, Yang Feng did not do anything, although the relics sent people to the Song army for help, and the Yang family in Banzhou also intended to send troops to expand to Dali, but in the end it was stopped by Yang Feng, first, Yang Feng did not want to drag Kublai Khan's hind legs for the time being, so that he could rest assured and boldly expand westward, and secondly, the main reason was that Yang Feng was also very chaotic internally.

Because in the same year that the empress ascended the throne, the agricultural census of the Great Song Dynasty was finally completed.

With the completion of the agricultural census, the long-planned public land law should also begin, this time the imperial court has more opposition to the public land law, and the reasons for opposition are sufficient, before the public land law must be implemented, because the Southern Song Dynasty had more people and less land, but now this problem no longer exists. Because safety is guaranteed, Sichuan, Jianghuai, Hebei these places can dilute the excess population of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, especially Jianghuai, in the past, Jianghuai was a buffer zone and did not have much population, Yangzhou population is not as good as a county in Zhejiang, but now the vast land there can be used, and it is convenient for the excess population of Jiangsu and Zhejiang to move to this area.

In that case......

In that case, let's simply nationalize the land!

Reform the feudal system, according to the different titles to grant different areas of fiefs, fiefs can be used as hereditary private property, in order to ensure the interests of those military generals and their own faction ministers, but except for these fiefs all land is nationalized, the state pays the original owner the newly established bank bills, and at the same time according to the Tang Dynasty Yongye field system according to the agricultural population of this census, lease land to the peasants, each household according to the population of the different areas, as for the insufficient share, there is also land to the surplus peasants.

It's just that where this land is is not certain.

Theoretically, it is also possible for a Zhejiang peasant to obtain land in Hebei, of course, the first phase is mainly in the Jianghuai area, but if the land outside the original place is obtained, the state is responsible for distributing agricultural tools and seeds to provide ploughing cattle and ensure that they are sent to the locality, and the newly opened wasteland is exempt from a period of land rent, as for who obtains the land of origin who obtains the land of other places, this has to be solved by lot, anyway, there is so much land in the native land, and there must be such a situation in overpopulated places.

In addition, the non-agricultural population can also apply for land rental.

Of course, they can only go to other places.

And you have to go, otherwise you have to be exiled to Taiwan or Hainan Island according to fraud.

If you get a large amount of Yongye field, and you think that you can't afford to farm, you can also choose to return a part to the state, if you catch it in other places, but you don't want to go, then there is no way, anyway, the country gives you land, and if you don't go, you have to go out to ask for food, or ......

It's not bad to work in the city!

In short, didn't the ministers and gentry say that the common people should be pushed out? Then let's push it more thoroughly, and have a nationwide large-scale immigration, so that the tens of millions of people crowded in Jiangsu and Zhejiang can be diverted outward to the greatest extent, so that the sparsely populated states and counties of the Great Song Dynasty will all be enriched, and Yang Feng has long thought about engaging in forced immigration, and now he can finally have a good time, Yangzhou is actually only 30,000 households Such a terrifying thing is indeed unbearable.

However, the nationalization of the land also made the gentry unbearable with him.

You're just doing something.

Why do you care so much about the fields we have? In the past, we did have hidden fields, but after the agricultural census, there were no hidden fields, and we all paid taxes and grains, so why did you still hold on to these lands? The nationalization of land had no effect on the yeoman peasants, except that the ownership of the land was changed from their own to the state, and even the land endowment was abolished, after all, the state could no longer collect the land rent, and the land rent was actually lower than the land endowment. As for the tenants, of course, they cheered for this, even the small and medium-sized landlords actually did not lose too much, after all, the state gave money, and the money was very reasonable, and they could also give priority to keeping a part of the best, as a concession did not have to draw lots.

But the big landowners, especially those who live on rent, were dumbfounded.

It's really unbearable!

In the case of fruitless negotiations with the national teacher, some of the gentry who were dizzy were fooled by a charlatan, thinking that the latter really had a spell, and it is said that it seemed that the charlatan had really shown a spell, in short, the gentry who thought that they had found a weapon to deal with the national teacher, resolutely raised troops under the banner of killing demons, and prepared to support the king of loyalty and depose the empress, but who knew that after the army, the charlatan actually ran away very irresponsibly, and the poor gentry had to hang themselves in a hurry before the counterinsurgency army arrived. But their hilarious rebellion led to the largest purge since the Southern Crossing of the Great Song Dynasty, and a large number of court officials who were found to be in collusion with them were arrested and imprisoned, especially after this charlatan was arrested, and confessed that a large number of masters from all over the country participated in his conspiracy, and then followed by a larger-scale purge, causing everyone to be in danger, and a large number of masters who had not yet been implicated hurriedly fled to the bright country in their hearts.

In short, after this great prison, both Confucian scholars and masters were dealt a heavy blow.

And the nationalization of land also began in earnest.

Then before the government and the opposition calmed down from this earthquake, the national teacher came out again, and he began to reform the imperial examination system, that is, to change the imperial examination to the civil service examination, and the palace examination was directly canceled, and there would be no more champions, but it would become an official examination for each prefecture, and the examination was not to be an official, but to be an official first, and then the official was no longer an official forever, but was promoted to an official according to his work performance.

In other words, this is another heart-wrenching knife!

However, at this time, after the previous prison, no one dared to object, and the imperial examination system was smashed all at once before it reached its peak.

For Yang Feng, the internal transformation of the Great Song Dynasty at this time had just begun, in fact, it took him decades to complete all the transformations.
