readx;?“ The minister Gu Ben impeached the forbidden army and commanded Lu Chenhuan! ”

A guy who didn't talk shockingly and couldn't stop running out of place. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info Lu Chengqi fixed his eyes and saw that it was Li Ran, who had been silent for many days. As soon as he saw Li Ran, Lu Chengqi's head was big for a while, and he finally let him be silent for so long, why did he come again? On second thought, he understood. Thinking about it, Li Ran was unpredictable about the little emperor's new policy before, but now that he has probably touched the outline, he has become active. You must know that the officials of Dashun are customized, and they are adjusted every three or five years. He has been in the position of the emperor in this imperial history for more than three years, and he has not seen an inch moved.

If it's a political governor, it doesn't matter if you move it or not, after all, it's all considered a vice minister. But in the position of Cheng in the imperial history, it is very embarrassing. said that it was a third-grade official, and the word "from" should be added in front. Said high and tall, but not to the top. To say that it is not low, at least nine out of ten officials have not achieved this position. Since the establishment of the Cabinet, the goal of many officials has shifted from Zaisukke to Governor's Affairs. The first assistant of the cabinet? Only ignorant people have such extravagant hopes, and people who are not little emperors can be the first assistant of the cabinet? Not to mention the first assistant, even the cabinet can't get in!

What is the Cabinet? It is equivalent to the emperor's personal secretary team, giving advice and handling trivial matters, with great power. Even if the power of this Zaifu is divided into twelve parts, the power of the cabinet is very great. How could the emperor let an official who was not "his own person" do such a department?

Even if it is Xu Chongguang, it is just a trick of the little emperor to buy people's hearts.

Knowing this, many officials have already lost their minds and began to set their goals on participating in the governor's affairs. Seeing that Wen Yanbo, who has been involved in political affairs for more than two years, they still don't take action, I'm afraid that others will eat meat and they won't even be able to drink soup! Do you think Li Ran can you try to make a big move!

As soon as Li Ran's words came out, everyone was shocked. Who is Lu Chenhuan? The general appointed by the Son of Heaven to suppress bandits has already "swept away" the bandits in Liangshan Shuibo and Qiandi, and Li Ran's impeachment of Lu Chenhuan is not a slap in the face of the little emperor! How lacking he was to come up with such a bad idea!

Lu Chengqi knew that Li Ran would never be untargeted. He is like a cheetah in the jungle, lurking in the dark, but he will hit with one blow. He dared to impeach Lu Fatzi, and there must be a basis for it.

"Oh, what's the matter?"

Seeing the little emperor's attitude, Li Ran perked up, as if he had drunk ice water in the summer: "The minister got the impeachment transcript submitted by Yin of Dongping Mansion on Shandong East Road, saying that the forbidden army had been in Dongping Mansion for seven or eight months, and he had to make the granary of Dongping Mansion empty, and he had to embezzle the grain of Qizhou and Gongzhou around him, which caused the local grain prices to rise sharply, and the people were dissatisfied. ”

Lu Chengqi nodded and said, "The waterways of Dongping Mansion are unblocked, why don't you buy grain from the Daimyofu, Qingzhou, and Xuzhou?" Moreover, the forbidden army has already withdrawn from Liangshan Shuibo, leaving only the Tiger Wing Army in the water pool, could it be that the Tiger Wing Army of 5,000 people cannot be raised in Dongping Mansion? I want to know, the autumn grain has just been put into storage, how can I not even be able to raise the 5,000-strong Tiger Wing Army? Did he fill his pockets in Dongping Mansion, or did he want the imperial court to starve to death? ”

Seeing that the little emperor's tone was getting higher and higher, and his words were full of heart-wrenching remarks, Li Ran was unmoved, and said with a straight face: "Back to Your Majesty, it is not the inaction of Yin of Dongping Mansion, but the serious drought on Shandong East Road this year, there has been no rain for three consecutive months, and the grain harvest has failed. The local people don't have enough to eat, and they have to feed 5,000 forbidden troops."

Li Ran talked eloquently, as if the culprit was Lu Chenhuan. In fact, everyone knows that if it is really as Li Ran said, Lu Chenhuan is not only innocent, but also has great merit. Why? The drought on Shandong East Road is serious, and there will inevitably be bankrupt farmers. Farmers are bankrupt and desperate, once they are instigated by water thieves, they will fall into the grass and become water thieves, which is "official forced and people rebel"! If the water thieves in Liangshan Shuibo are flourishing, after a certain number, there will be no food and grass, and the anti-flag will definitely be raised. At that time, if you want to encircle and suppress them, it is not something that 50,000 forbidden troops can do.

This account will be calculated by all the officials present. But they didn't dare to point it out, because no matter who did this hot Dongping Mansion Yin, it would be like this. Under the sadness of the rabbit and the fox, it is normal to keep silent. Lu Chengqi is not stupid, this account will also be calculated, and immediately said coldly: "Liangshan Mountain is eight hundred miles long, how much water is there? Dongping Mansion is on the side, and they don't know how to build water conservancy, dig soil into canals, and irrigate farmland, but they blindly complain about the sky and people, and leave the responsibility all away, which is really a good calculation! ”

Li Ran was stunned for a moment, and said slowly: "Your Majesty's words, I really don't know the difficulties. Although Liangshan Shuibo is next to Dongping Mansion, it is also separated by more than ten miles. The fields outside the city of Dongping Mansion are separated by dozens of miles. With such a huge project and no grain in the warehouse, how to arrange the young and strong, digging soil and digging ditches? ”

Lu Chengqi was silent for a while, and immediately admitted: "It was my negligence, but Dongping Mansion Yin concealed the drought and didn't play it in the morning, and his sin was inevitable!" ”

As soon as everyone heard it, they knew that this Dongping Mansion Yin was finished, and it was indeed not a good thing to be remembered by the little emperor. Li Ran nodded and continued: "Fu Yin is guilty, but the culprit is Lu Chenhuan!" ”

Lu Chengqi said with a smile: "The theory of cause and effect will not be pursued at this time. The great drought is a natural disaster, and it cannot be reversed by the power of one person. The drought situation brooks no delay, and we should first find a way to appease the people and alleviate the drought. In this way, what kind of plan do you have, and play it. ”

"Your Majesty, I think I can let the merchants transport grain"

Li Ran immediately retorted: "Your Majesty, this move must not be feasible, how can a businessman not take the opportunity to raise the price of grain when he sees profit and forgets his righteousness?" As far as the minister knows, the grain price in Dongping Mansion has reached 180 wen a bucket, which is twice the usual grain price. With the price of food already so high, wouldn't it be starving to death if profiteers were allowed to hoard grain? Absolutely not! ”

"Li Zhongcheng, this is not true. How could the gentry let these profiteers do whatever they wanted? If a large amount of grain enters Dongping Province, how will the price of grain rise? "The gentry mentioned by this official refers to retired officials, of course, including landlords and squires, celebrities are famous people, which naturally include literati, and fathers and elders do not only refer to relatives in their hometowns, in ancient society, fathers and elders have a special significance, in fact, they specifically refer to the patriarchs of various clans in the countryside. At this time, the society is a very strong patriarchal society, the clan has its own family law, the court and the emperor also recognize the effectiveness of these private laws, the reason why the court can rule such a large empire, itself also has to use the patriarchal law and the family for grassroots management, these gentry in the countryside formed a very stable class, to ensure the stability of the countryside, a county officials are dozens of hundreds of people, want to effectively manage tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people, absolutely inseparable from the help of these people.

Due to the restrictions of various reasons, it is impossible for the decrees of the imperial court to penetrate directly into the countryside, and they can only remain these gentry who are inextricably linked with the officials and the people, and take on the responsibility of educating the people to do good, so as to supplement the deficiencies of local administration, so the gentry class is a bridge between the upper magnates and the lower peasants, if the local officials do not cooperate with them at all, then it is possible that nothing can be done, and there is also the danger of losing their officials, after all, it is not a lie to rule the world with the scholars.

Of course, the interests of the local officials and the gentry are the same, the gentry want the local officials to protect their own interests, and the local officials want the gentry to help maintain the stability of the locality, which can be said to complement each other, you must know that in the feudal dynasty, the landlord class is the foundation of the rule, and in ancient times to say that to preach democratic rights is purely self-defeating.

Li Ran disdained to refute, but looked at Lu Chengqi. Lu Chengqi looked thoughtful, noncommittal, but said loudly: "Is there any other way for Zhongqing?" "To be continued.
