Chapter 451: Metaphysics and Attacking the Heart
Master Huikong pondered for a moment, and said with a look of embarrassment: "If you follow this sign, Your Majesty seems to have committed a crime." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoI'm afraid it's hard to have a dragon heir. ”
Empress Dowager Zhang believes in Buddhism the most, and when she heard this, she was like five thunderbolts, and hurriedly said: "How to resolve it?" ”
"This ......"
Master Huikong stopped talking and sighed: "The poor monk doesn't dare to say this. ”
Empress Dowager Zhang was anxious and urged: "It's about the emperor's safety, what does the mage dare not say?" ”
"Then please forgive the poor monk for the sin of lying in vain."
Empress Dowager Zhang waved her hand and said, "All follow the mage." ”
"Your Majesty's calamity came from the Cabinet."
Master Huikong gritted his teeth and said in a loud voice: "Queen Mother, if you want to relieve this calamity, you must start with the cabinet. ”
Empress Dowager Zhang was only thinking about hugging the emperor and grandson, and she didn't notice the temptation in Master Huikong's words at all, she frowned and said, "Which one is in the cabinet?" ”
Master Huikong closed his eyes, untied the sign again, and then said, "It's that little Xie Ge Lao." ”
"Is that him?"
For Xie Shen, Empress Dowager Zhang naturally did not have any good feelings. This person couldn't get along with his younger brother several times, but every time she was protected by the emperor, she couldn't have a seizure.
Well, this person actually clashed with the emperor, causing the emperor to be unable to have children. In any case, Empress Dowager Zhang could not let him continue to stay by the emperor's side.
Empress Dowager Zhang has always believed in the mysteries of numerology, not to mention that these words still came out of Master Huikong's mouth.
What the host of Tanzhe Temple said can be false?
"Queen Mother, this person's implementation of the new policy has made people angry. Heaven sent punishments, but they were all accumulated on His Majesty. If you want to relieve Your Majesty of this calamity, you must abolish the New Deal and drive this person away from Your Majesty. ”
Master Huikong said that he was so sad and indignant that people who didn't know why still thought that he was related to the emperor by blood.
Empress Dowager Zhang nodded slightly and said, "The mourning family that the mage said knows it." It's just that this Xie Shen is deeply favored by the emperor, and it may not be easy to get rid of him. ”
Although Empress Dowager Zhang firmly believes in the mystery of numerology, the emperor will not believe it.
Trying to rely on this set of rhetoric to persuade the emperor to drive Xie Shen away is tantamount to a fool's dream.
His son himself knew best, and if he wanted to convince him, he had to think of another reason.
Master Huikong was also stunned. He thought that he would be able to convince the Queen Mother to get everything. Who would have thought that even the Queen Mother couldn't help this Xie Shen.
Could it be that this Xie Shen was really sent by God to rectify him?
Although Emperor Zhengde is not a saint, he is also very protective of his favored courtiers.
Even Liu Jin, Qian Ning, Jiang Bin and others were demoted from Beijing by the emperor because they did something angry and resentful. And Xie Shen himself is a great loyal minister, and it is indeed not easy to find trouble in him.
Master Huikong thought for a long time and couldn't come up with a perfect solution, so he retreated and said, "Queen Mother, even if you can't transfer this little Xie Ge Elder away from Your Majesty for a while, you can't let him continue to implement the new policy. This new policy is against the way of heaven and has done great damage to His Majesty's spirit. ”
Empress Dowager Zhang sighed and said: "If the new deal is abolished, will the emperor be able to have an heir?" ”
Where did Master Huikong dare to make this guarantee, he had to say vaguely: "Hope has increased greatly." ”
For Empress Dowager Zhang, even if there is only a glimmer of hope, she has to give it a try. If the emperor has no heir, then the throne will fall to the side branches.
In this way, how will she explain to the first emperor after she dies in the future?
"Okay, let's give it a try."
"The Queen Mother is wise!"
Master Huikong gave a sycophant and said, "In this way, my Daming Jiangshan Sheji will be saved." ”

Songjiang Prefecture, Huating County.
In the palace, Wang Shouren pointed to the fish scale atlas redrawn after the land was cleared and reported to the prefect Zhao Ji: "Brother Hui, the land in the county has increased by 20,000 mu. Of these, 15,000 acres were returned by the local gentry. There are also 5,000 acres of terra nullius. A certain plan to redistribute 20,000 acres of land to landless tenant farmers. ”
Zhao Ji stroked his beard and said in a harmonious voice: "Haha, Shouren, you did a good job." But this matter is urgent. ”
Wang Shouren was puzzled and said, "Why? Now that the land has been cleared and the fish scales have been drawn, why wait? ”
In Wang Shouren's view, isn't the purpose of implementing the new policy to seek the well-being of the people?
What's the point of reclaiming the land but not returning it to the people?
"Shouren, although Huating County is a pilot of the new policy, the power of decision-making is still in the imperial court after all. According to his brother's opinion, Shouren might as well write a note and send it to Jingshi, and the court will decide. When the opinion of the imperial court comes down, Shouren can follow it. ”
Wang Shouren's expression darkened when he heard this.
"Got it."
Although he is a Qincha, in the final analysis, he is just an executor sent by the imperial court to Songjiang Mansion. He only has the right to make suggestions and no decision-making power to do what the court wants to do.
"Shouren doesn't need to be too depressed, according to his brother's opinion, the imperial court will still distribute these fields to the people of Huating County."
Wang Shouren nodded and said, "I hope so." As for the restructuring of commercial taxes, what does Brother Hui think? ”
Wang Shouren had already handed over the specific plan for the commercial tax reform to Zhao Ji, hoping that the Zhao prefect could give some advice.
Zhao Ji twisted his beard and said, "Shouren's method is really good. According to the profit income of the merchants, the tax is collected in stages. In this way, the businessmen who earn less pay less taxes, and the merchants who earn more pay more taxes. There will no longer be an embarrassment that the imperial court cannot collect taxes. Those merchants who make less money will not complain. ”
"How could I come up with such a good solution. In fact, this was what Xiao Ge Lao came up with. ”
Wang Shouren didn't take credit and said truthfully.
"Oh? This turned out to be what Xiao Ge Lao meant? Zhao Ji nodded slightly: "It is said that Xiaoge is always a ghost, and today is a brother." ”
Wang Shouren said with a smile: "This is nothing, if you change others, which one has the courage to set up a factory for businessmen." Those imperial businessmen who cooperated with the Weaving Bureau were actually exploited very much, and there was not much real profit. If there is an accident, they have to bear the loss. Now they can set up their own factories, and all their income except for paying taxes goes into their own pockets, and their initiative must be much higher. ”
"Yes, Xiao Ge Lao, this is a serial plan."
Zhao Ji sincerely admired Xie Shenlai.
Although he was not masked with this young man who became a university scholar, he saw that this person had the talent to endure the heavens and the earth.
"I heard that Wanping County, Jingshi, has also begun to implement the new policy, if this is the case, I am afraid that the new policy will be fully implemented in the Ming Dynasty, Beijing and 13 provinces."
"I hope so."
Wang Shouren clenched his fists and said: "If it is not broken, it will not stand, Daming has contracted a stubborn disease, and only scraping bones to cure poison can cure it." ”
