In March, Liaodong has been turned upside down, but the capital is no different from previous years. [Full text reading]

Although Xie Hong is gone, the various institutions he created are operating as usual.

From time to time, there are still new scripts and new tunes appearing in Houdefang, and there are more and more plays in the theater next to it, and even a lot of follow-up behaviors.

At the beginning, it was still a tentative operation, for fear that the Rights Protection Division would come to collect debts, but the Rights Protection Division did not come to the door, but waited for the Action Department of the Lower House of the Metropolitan Inspectorate.

The Action Department came not only for the management fee, but more importantly, to read out the regulations on the management of public opinion, and after some teachings, the theater that promised to abide by the regulations suddenly changed from a copycat version to an official version, and it was able to open its doors with great fanfare.

And those who don't know each other, needless to say, everything is a floating cloud in the background, the closure of the door is light, and the penalty for bankruptcy is not heavy, you know, the Action Department is acting on orders, who can resist it?

The scale of Lichun Courtyard is also larger, known as the joint operation of 100 courtyards, in the capital, but wherever it is a Fengyue place, there is always a shadow of Lichun Courtyard. With the rising tide in the capital, Lichun Temple has begun to expand to Gyeonggi, and has even reached as far as Shandong and Henan.

The Ivy League has changed a little more, especially the junior colleges, which now have more majors, and what is particularly striking is that in addition to the original theory of things, there is also a law and a liberal arts.

The textbooks of these emerging majors are also new, and the literary brilliance is not under the principal Tang Bohu, and the depth of the theory is even higher than that of the principal Tang, which has aroused the interest of many people, and they all want to see the true face of this great talent.

It's okay to have a liberal arts discipline, eighty percent of which came from the hands of Tang Dacai, but the law discipline is amazing. Although the theories are still superficial, it may be that in the era of Confucianism, the concept of law was refined and the theory was formed, and such a great talent could already be regarded as a figure who opened up the era, how can it not be curious.

However, no matter how curious outsiders are, this great talent has never shown his true face, so people can only look at the textbook and reverie in a sigh.

In addition to these things that the people like to see, there are also many worries, and the most closely related to everyone is, of course, the rise in food prices.

It is normal for grain prices to fall in autumn and rise in spring and summer, and the people know about it. But this year's rise is somewhat different, and with rumours from the south, food prices have been rising slowly but firmly since last winter, without even a pause.

Today, food prices are 50% higher than in previous years, making many people miserable.

It is not only the common people who complain, but also many officials who are also sad.

The Ming Dynasty's salary for officials is very low, and not all yamen have oil and water to fish, let alone everyone is qualified to fish. Therefore, as soon as the price of grain rose, those low-level officials from ordinary or poor families were unlucky, and they begged the household department to change the distribution of silver to Falu rice in order to tide over the difficulties.

But the household department can't help it, at the time of the autumn harvest last year, most of the places reported the famine, and the grain handed over was insufficient, and the rise in grain prices made Liu Yu, the head of the household department, almost sad to death, and the idea of buying from the private sector was immediately dispelled, where is there so much rice grain distribution?

Therefore, he could only order people to persuade those low-level officials with kind words, and even sat down and wept.

How else could it be? Last year, even Xie Hong, who had great powers, couldn't solve the problem, so what could Liu Yu do?

Tranquility in the prosperity and turbulence under the calm are the best portrayal of the capital in the second year of Zhengde.

What completely broke this peace was an urgent report and a person from Liaodong.

In fact, before this urgent report, all kinds of movements in Liaodong had been widely circulated in the capital. The champion Hou of Liaodong was the focus of attention in the capital, and he had already made a big move on the way out of the customs, how could he be quiet in Liaodong?

Reclamation, Tuntian...... These news surprised the people of the capital, but they couldn't help but be curious, because these things were too far away from them. Now that it has been more than 100 years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and even if the capital has been moved to Yanjing for more than 100 years, where will there be any wasteland around Gyeonggi?

When I first heard it, many people were even secretly moved, wondering whether to go to Liaodong to mix up some shares and open up some wasteland. Although the capital is prosperous, it is not easy to say, especially this year, this feeling is getting stronger and stronger.

Tempted to be tempted, it is still far from action. After all, it is Liaodong, which has been a wild land since ancient times, and the Tartars from all walks of life have invaded from time to time, even if there are some fields, whether they can be cultivated in peace or not is still a question mark.

The court was filled with sneers. Reclamation in Liaodong? Is it that Xie Hong's red eyes are in a hurry, right? Cultivating the wasteland on a large scale in that kind of bitter cold place is really thanks to this person's idea.

Although he came up with some new farm tools, but after reading the message of Liaodong, the ministers were also unimpressed, no matter how good the tools were, they also needed to be driven by the power of people and animals, Liaodong is such an idea, even if all the people in the army are counted, the animal power gap is also very large, why did he open up the entire Liaodong?

What's more, now the embargo on Liaodong is in full swing, and although many low-level officials are complaining, the determination of the Jiangnan scholars who are pushing for this matter is still unwavering.

Even the neutral faction headed by Li Dongyang only persuaded a few words in the early stage, and after Wang Wei and others put the plan together, Li Dongyang and others were speechless.

There are many factions in the DPRK and China, each with its own interests, but there has long been a consensus on the issue of killing Xie Hong and suppressing the imperial power. If Xie Hong's big trouble can be solved at such a small cost, even Li Dongyang thinks it is quite cost-effective.

As for the losses and sufferings suffered by the Lebanese people in the process...... Hehe, those who achieve great things are not informal, and on the road to success, there are always sacrifices.

However, the content of the latest urgent report sent by the Liaodong Patrol was too shocking, Xie Hong actually led the border army to slaughter the Jianzhou Jurchens, who had always been quite obedient!

Asano was shocked!

Is this poor and crazy? Jianzhou Jurchen is such a poor place, he actually went to rob it, and he robbed it with great fanfare, even Duoyan Sanwei was shocked, Khan Wang Huadang sent people to detour Jizhen to inquire in the court, and just happened to catch up with Chen Shiliang's messenger.

Another record! Not to mention the Ming Dynasty, even if the Central Plains Dynasty in China for thousands of years is counted, except for the Yuan Dynasty, which was originally dominated by the Tartars, how could such a thing have happened?

Jianzhou Jurchen is not only poor, the most important thing is that their attitude is very deferential, and they have always admired the Ming Dynasty, even if they are not subject countries, they can be called friendly tribes, and for such tribes, the Ming Dynasty has always been appeased.

Dong Shan in the Chenghua period was mainly because he harassed the Han people too much, and even disturbed the governor's mansion at that time, which caused the anger of the Ming court, which is completely different from today's Jurchen.

As a result, that Xie Hong was actually poor and crazy, and he went to slaughter such a tribe, which was simply a loss of face for Daming!

In addition to these superficial statements, Wang Wei, Tu Xun and others were even more hysterical. They knew very well that the Nuzhen was very poor, but after all, they were mixed on the grassland, and there were a lot of cattle and horses in the tribe, and there were even some food savings...... As a result, these were all served by Xie Hong, obviously, Xie Hong has already taken this opportunity to tide over the difficulties, and when there is a harvest in Tuntian next year, it will be like a dragon entering the sea and flying directly into the sky, what will he do to restrict him at that time?

Even if it really breaks the luck, it won't work? As long as there is a food supply in Beijing, when the Jiangnan people go on a big march, what will the Jiangnan people resist?

Don't look at Li Dongyang's people who are strictly neutral now, but if the luck is really cut off and the world complains, maybe they will immediately turn the spearhead, and there will be no eternal relationship politically, this moment is an alliance, and the next moment it may be an opponent.

Fortunately, it has not yet reached that point, and the slight adverse impact on the Liaodong embargo alone will not cause much rift in the alliance between the two sides.

In particular, the views of the government and the opposition are unanimous in their attitude toward this border incident, and they must be severely punished, and this kind of behavior must be put an end to in the future.

This is no longer just a matter of restricting Xie Hong, once the soldiers and horses of the Nine Great Border Towns get such news, what will be the consequences?

That's right, the main force of Mongolia is very strong, but there are many tribes on the steppe, and the proportion of weak tribes is also higher, if they all follow the example of Liaozhen, doesn't it mean that as long as they can avoid the main force of Mongolia, they can wantonly attack those weak tribes?

If the border army has financial resources in addition to Tuntian, then who can guarantee that the disaster of the feudal towns at the end of the Tang Dynasty will not be repeated? Who can guarantee that those martial artists will still be honest and obedient?

In addition, if the border army attacked in all directions, who could guarantee that Mongolia would not retaliate? You must know that although Mongolia has been divided now, whether it is Walla or Tatar, either side can get more than 100,000 cavalry, and it will be even more terrifying if they are united.

If they provoke a big retribution from Mongolia, who can guarantee that they will be able to repel them and defend the border passes?

As for Xie Hong, it was even more depressing, I thought that this person went to Liaodong, which was considered self-exile, who would want to see that there were signs of rising again, and this sign was still very clear, how could the ministers not be depressed?

He must be restricted!

Since the court meeting last winter, the emperor has not been to the court for several months, but now that this kind of ugly thing has happened, the emperor cannot be allowed to avoid or protect Xie Hong.

Impeach? No, it's useless to impeach with a concert, I heard that those notes were all taken by the emperor to burn the fire, and some words still have to be said in person to understand.

So, again...... The song sparsely poured into the Wenyuan Pavilion and flooded the celebrant supervisor, with only one content, holding a court meeting and discussing side affairs!

And Zhengde's response was also very simple, he directly issued a handwritten order: March 12, see you at the court meeting.
