Chapter 240: Chill

"Dereliction of duty." Yang Yiqing, the head of the household, stood up directly.

Zhu Houwei waved his hand and said: "I don't blame Yang Qing, now the tax department has not yet spread all over the counties, and the commercial tax will not be officially collected until the second year of Jiajing, and the household department has a lot of things to do now, I can understand it, but whether the pension silver is withheld by the military department or intercepted by the local government, I want to investigate it thoroughly, and this matter will be handed over to the cabinet to handle, and if the cabinet is not satisfied, I will let Jinyiwei and Dongchang do it!"

"The ministers obey." The seven elders of the cabinet seem to have become accustomed to the emperor threatening them with Jinyiwei and Dongchang.

Of course, this is not to say that this threat is ineffective, but that the foreign DPRK does not dare to gamble at all!

If you bet, winning the bet is just pressing the emperor, but if you lose the bet, then maybe the Jiajing Dynasty will produce another Liu Jin!

At the beginning, Li Dongyang and Zhang Yongli should work together to kill Liu Jin, but it was because Emperor Zhengde was so foolish, but if you look at Emperor Jiajing, he is a master who is easy to fool?

Moreover, in the years when Liu Jinquan leaned towards the government and the opposition, the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were more or less persecuted by him, and before he fell, who was not a cautious person, and the foreign dynasty really could not withstand another toss like that......

It is obvious that the emperor now wants to use the matter of pension money to attack the foreign court, but it seems that he does not mean to set off a big prison, which is much easier.

Zhu Houwei really didn't mean to open the prison!

Because he does not have the prestige of Emperor Taizu, and now he has no confidence to act against the civil official group, he does trust Ren Xing, a personal eunuch who grew up with him, but he also does not dare to be too permissive to the eunuchs.

There are too many bloody lessons in history, if the eunuch group is a group of fierce dogs, then the one who can hold the dog leash and put a muzzle on it is the emperor, but once the emperor loosens the rope and unties the muzzle, then the eunuch may become a vicious dog that hurts people!

No sword in his hand and no need to have a sword are two concepts, Zhu Houwei just wants to let the Manchu Dynasty know that he has a fierce dog in his hand, as for whether I use it or not, it depends on how the Manchu Dynasty chooses!

That's deterrence!

Speaking of which, it is also the emperor's sorrow, the dignified Ninety-Five Supreme was suppressed by the civil officials because he wanted face, and in the end, he had to fight back with shamelessness......

But in the final analysis, it is because Zhu Houwei needs time, as if he also wants to start collecting commercial taxes immediately, but it is obvious that there are no tax departments all over the world, and even if the commercial tax is collected, a large part of it will eventually be corrupted by local officials at all levels.

With the tax department, the tax is calculated separately, even if there is corruption, it is impossible to be so blatant, and it also takes time to set up Tianyan.

It takes a lot of time to infiltrate such a huge dark web to organize it, and the last layer is a solid espionage system.

Of course, the most time-consuming thing is to study, and only when a large number of talents emerge in different categories can Zhu Houwei have enough ability and confidence to wrestle with the civil and official group!

Otherwise, once the core interests of the civil and official group are touched, the entire governance system of the world will be chaotic in an instant, and at least Zhu Houwei cannot afford such a price.

Before these tasks were completely completed, Zhu Houwei had enough patience to wait, and even make appropriate concessions when confronting civilian officials, instead of letting the group of eunuchs kill 1,000 enemies and lose 800 themselves......

Yang Tinghe and the other pavilion elders didn't bother with the shitty matter of the emperor sneaking out of the palace with the empress, because the emperor had already thrown out the matter of the pension silver, in order to naturally shut them up!

"The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty fought for the country, threw their heads, spilled blood, forgot their lives, and moved forward, they died on the battlefield, in order not to let the people of the Ming Dynasty suffer from the humiliation of the enemy, in order for the people of the world to live and work in peace and contentment, but also for the Ming Dynasty to live forever!

Because of their existence, you Aiqing can govern with peace of mind, and even be able to enjoy the wind and snow, they died on the battlefield, the court did not praise, and even withheld the bereavement pension, depriving them of the glory they should enjoy.

In the long run, how can you not let the Ming soldiers chill! Therefore I am determined!

After any soldier dies in battle, his family will be given the title of glorious home, and I will personally write a plaque to order the local government to engrave the seal, and if the remains of martyrs are transported back to their hometowns, the local government should send officials to beat gongs and drums to send the plaque to the house!

If the martyr has a family, the family is the martyr's family, in addition to the necessary pension, you can receive one or two silver from the government every month for expenses, if the martyr has no brothers but has a high hall alive, the government will support the high hall for the rest of his life!

In addition, in the capital, I want to build a 'Ming Martyrs Monument' to commemorate the heroic souls who died in battle, and build a temple at the place where the monument is erected, called the Martyrs' Shrine, and the incense is endless every day, thinking that it is a memorial!

In addition, the Ministry of War has a division to register the name, place of origin, life, combat history, and merits of each soldier who died in the war, and enshrine them in the Martyrs' Shrine for future generations to verify! ”

After a set of combination punches, the seven elders of the cabinet were directly stunned......

And then there's the chill all over your body!

The Son of Heaven is going to greatly elevate the status of martial artists!

The Seventh Old Man finally understood that Emperor Jiajing not only wanted to seize the military power, but also to control the civil and military forces!

As for the rhetoric that has always been used by civil officials to suppress military generals and advise the king, it is nothing more than that once the military generals are powerful, then the world will inevitably be unstable, and if the military generals rebel, they will inevitably erode one side and even cause a military disaster that sweeps the world!

But the Seven Elders have discovered a basic fact that cannot be ignored with an extremely keen sense of smell!

That is, if the world is implemented according to the set of policies of the Son of Heaven, then the soldiers of the world will inevitably return to their hearts, and the generals will become rootless and will be completely reduced to history!

At that time, the only object of allegiance to the whole world as a soldier is Dang today, at least in the Jiajing Dynasty, and it will become a joke for the generals to rebel, because as long as they rebel, they will immediately suffer from the countermeasures of the soldiers under their hands, and it is normal to be directly tied up and twisted in front of the Son of Heaven.

Gather people's hearts, when today's son can be said to have reached the pinnacle of play!

The heart of the martial artist is like this, and the same is true for civilian officials, for example, the Son of Heaven wants to fight corruption, and the officials in the world are extremely dissatisfied, but how can they be dissatisfied?

Could it be said that they can still openly oppose the Son of Heaven and corruption?

Since it can't, then it can only be silently endured, but it is just more careful, hidden, and restrained when it comes to corruption in the future.

However, at this time, the Son of Heaven threw out the strategy of high salaries and incorruptibility, while resolving the grievances of officials, it also made those officials who were not very greedy sigh that the Son of Heaven was in the court......

This is the means, the means of doing everything......

Zhu Houwei seemed to be very satisfied with the cabinet's shock, so the gloomy look on his face decreased slightly: "Since you Aiqing are here, then go to the industrial park with me?"
