Yan Shenggong united thousands of scholars to oppose the new policy, and the reasons for the opposition were even more well-written, justified and well-founded. If Zhu Youxiao didn't understand the situation, just looking at this letter, he would definitely have a feeling that the world would be in chaos if the new policy was implemented.

What kind of scholars are exempt from taxes is the foundation of the country, and what is the foundation of people's livelihood for merchants who are exempt from business taxes.

It's ridiculous!

Zhu Youxiao threw the letter on the table, and immediately summoned the minister to come to the Qianqing Palace to hold a pre-imperial meeting. After half an hour, everyone entered the Qianqing Palace one after another.

"Your Majesty, Ministers."

"Ladies and gentlemen, you can take a look at this letter." Zhu Youxiao handed over the music concocted by Kong Yinzhi and the Jiangnan scholars to the ministers, and the ministers took it and looked at it, and their expressions were different, but they were mostly surprised, because Kong Yinzhi's hand was really a little dirty.

As the heir of the Kong family, it represents the orthodox inheritance of Confucianism, and it is very appealing among scholars all over the world.

Kong Yinzhi dared to jump out at this time, and united with Jiangnan Shizi to oppose the New Deal, one of which was that Shandong's inclusion in the New Deal District harmed his Kong family's land interests and some commercial interests in Shandong. The second is that Kong Yinzhi thinks that he is the Holy Duke of Yan, and I will not do anything to him, not to mention that I have united the world's scholars, and I dare not do anything to him. Zhu Youxiao took a deep breath and asked the ministers, "What do you think, what should I do?" ”

At this time, Zhu Youxiao's strong desire in his heart was to arrest Kong Yinzhi and cut him down. Of course, this is also thinking about it, it is impossible to cut that guy now. Once chopped this guy. That's a big problem.

Hence the face of such a situation. Zhu Youxiao could only summon his ministers to the Qianqing Palace to discuss countermeasures.

"Your Majesty. The minister thought that reform was like an arrow off the string, and it had to be launched. Shandong's reform must not be abolished because of the opposition of Kong Yinzhi and scholars from all over the country. Huang Zhoudao was the first to jump out and said, Huang Zhoudao's courtiers are definitely the type of young Zhuang faction of the Han Emperor Party.

"The minister seconded the proposal."

"The minister seconded the proposal."

The ministers showed great determination to reform, and such a determination to reform was no longer something that Kong Yinzhi and a group of Jiangnan scholars could shake.

Reform is too important to the imperial court, and the achievements made by Beizhili over the years have been seen by everyone.

The reforms not only increased the imperial court's fiscal revenues. It also improved the level of people's livelihood, made the society more fair, and made the imperial court stronger and stronger, and leveled the eastern captives.

Therefore, almost all the officials of the Han Emperor Party were determined to implement such a system throughout the country.

"As for Kong Yinzhi, Your Majesty doesn't have to care too much, he makes trouble with them, how should the imperial court reform Shandong or how to reform." Huang Zhoudao continued: "As long as Kong Yinzhi can't afford to rebel, no matter how much he unites his scholars to oppose the reform, it will be useless. ”

Zhu Youxiao nodded and asked Shen Yan, "What does Aiqing think?" ”

"Your Majesty. Kong Yinzhi is the Holy Father of Yan, since he wants to stand up and make trouble. It doesn't hurt to let him make a fuss. How to reform or how to reform. Those scholars may also oppose the New Deal, but they cannot block it. His Majesty doesn't have to pay attention to those who oppose it. But for those who dare to block the new policy, even if it is a Yan Shenggong like Kong Yinzhi, His Majesty can liquidate him. Shen Xiao said calmly.

"No, Kong Yinzhi, as the Holy Duke of Yan, has a huge influence among the scholars of the world, if it is liquidated, what if it provokes the centrifugation of the scholars of the world?"

Suddenly, someone jumped out and persuaded.

Shen Yan's expression was sharp, and he raised his voice: "The scholars of the world can distinguish between black and white, and the person who should be centrifuged will be centrifugal." Even if Kong Yinzhi is liquidated and questioned in a few days, who still dares to rebel? Even if someone rebels, who wants to rebel without the support of the people? ”

Rebel!

Shen Yan got to the point, and suddenly found that Kong Yinzhi was a paper tiger.

Jiangnan Shizi is a fart! Now there is no reform to Jiangnan, and under normal circumstances, as long as life can go on, no one will rebel. Those who want to rebel will not rebel, because others are not willing to rebel~! If you want to start a general trend, you may be killed.

So Jiangnan Shizi is now a group of beep-and-mouth people, how low the success rate of rebellion is. As long as there is a rebellion, the lives of the people and scholars in Jiangnan can still go on now, naturally there are not so many people to respond, and the imperial court will casually send a little army over to suppress it.

Therefore, no matter how much the Jiangnan region opposes the New Deal, as long as the New Deal has not yet been implemented in Jiangnan, it is completely impossible for an uncontrollable rebellion to occur.

Then the only way to rebel against the New Deal is in Shandong.

But the people in Shandong are looking forward to the implementation of the new policy! Without the support of the common people, the success rate of the rebellion was basically equal to zero.

After figuring out these points, all the problems are solved.

Okay! Since you don't have the ability to rebel, why don't you still jump a yarn? annoyed the court, and there is no good fruit for you to eat.

Of course, in order to show the emperor's bearing, Zhu Youxiao will naturally not care about those things that are jointly written, but if there are any specific acts that hinder the reform, it will be unkind.

Soon the Imperial Council was over, and a unified opinion was formed within the Han Emperor Party that carried out the reforms, that is, to turn a blind eye to the voices opposed to the reforms, to turn a deaf ear to the reforms, to reform and how to reform, and to be prepared to suppress the reactionaries by force.

Under such a decision, Kong Yinzhi's joint letter soon entered the sea like a mud cow, and there was no splash at all in the middle of the court.

At this time, the autumn harvest season has come again, and the officials of the northern provinces have begun to be busy for the autumn harvest under the orders of the imperial court. The affected areas are reported to the imperial court, and the places that are not affected by the disaster collect taxes normally. If you can't collect taxes, don't be violent.

Since Zhu Youxiao ascended the throne, the phenomenon of buying and selling official positions has been curbed. In particular, after the Han Emperor Party achieved absolute superiority in the court, the behavior of buying and selling officials in the court has been completely forbidden. In addition to the strict prohibition of the imperial court, there will be no violent Cui Ke phenomenon like in the Chongzhen period.

During the Chongzhen period, the reason why the northern Shaanxi region was affected by the disaster was that there would be an official Cui Ke, who beat the poor people to the point that their skin was broken and they bled endlessly. The main reason is that the Donglin Party has resurrected with the support of Chongzhen, and as soon as it came to power, it sold its official beard, and many officials borrowed Beijing debts when they took office.

If you borrow Beijing bonds to buy officials, you will be assigned to places like those in northern Shaanxi, and they have no background or background. Moreover, the Beijing debt is a usury, and in order to repay the money under the rolling interest, these county officials who borrowed Beijing debts in order to become officials have all turned into jackals, tigers and leopards, and they will not give up without squeezing the last drop of oil and water out of the people.
