Chapter 670 Zhu Yujiao: I want to go back to Beijing
There are changes in the north, Li Chaosheng knows, a few days ago in the Songjin War, he got the report, and knew that Hong Chengchou was defeated and captured, so he didn't know what Gu Zi meant when he said that there were changes in the north, Li Chaosheng looked at Gu Zi, Gu Zi sighed for a moment and said: "The emperor wants to move the capital." ”
"What!"
Li Chaosheng's eyes widened when he heard this, Chongzhen wants to run?
This is what Li Chaosheng did not expect, after all, Chongzhen did not run in history, Li Chaosheng thought and looked at Gu Zi and said: "Did the Chinese martial arts of the dynasty agree?" ”
Gu Zi shook his head and said, "The officials of the southern faction disagree, but the emperor is quite insistent. ”
Li Chaosheng narrowed his eyes, his ambition was no longer controllable, so at the end of this finale, there must be no more moths and branches, so Chongzhen must not run, he ran away, ran to the south, and he would spend more energy to recover the south, which Li Chaosheng was unwilling.
Although even if Chongzhen fled to the south, he could defeat the small southern court, and he would not let Nanming survive for so long like the Manchu Qing Dynasty, but if Chongzhen escaped, it would be difficult to count on Li Zicheng to kill him, maybe Lantian would have to take action in person, which is not in line with the image of a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty that Li Chaosheng has always erected.
Li Chaosheng doesn't like this feeling very much!
With this feeling of destroying his perfect plan, Li Chaosheng thought for a while and said: "Guzi, inform the secret spy department of Hebei and BJ that if Chongzhen really flees south and doesn't want to be decent, then let them help Chongzhen be decent, Chongzhen must not leave the capital!" ”
After so many years in power, Li Chaosheng is no longer an ordinary young man in the 21 st century, but a qualified ruler, and it is okay for those in power not to give up their personal interests because of their personal feelings, and to do things that go against the conscience of the masses for the sake of interests.
Li Chaosheng is absolutely kind, fair, and sincere most of the time, so it is not an exaggeration to say that all the good qualities are leaning on him, because he is such a person, but if it touches his core interests, then he can do some very cruel things.
Of course, there are not many things that can touch Li Chaosheng's core interests, and the common people can't reach this level at all, so Li Chaosheng is kind and great enough in front of the people, this is not pretending!
A person is not a diode, either infinitely great and has no harm at all, or he is infinitely bad and has no good at all, which is not right.
A hero who acts bravely may also be a person who spits dirty and spits on the ground in ordinary days.
And the heinous murderer may have helped the old lady cross the road.
People's good and evil are determined by changes in mentality in a special period of time, Li Chaosheng is a kind person, this is true, but in terms of fighting for the world, if someone threatens Li Chaosheng, Li Chaosheng will not mind killing them.
And the people, that is Li Chaosheng's foundation, treating the foundation, Li Chaosheng has always been great, kind, and inclusive.
Gu Zi listened to Li Chaosheng's words and said: "County Zun, I'm afraid I don't need to send someone to assassinate Chongzhen for the time being, because this matter didn't work out, and Chongzhen can't run away in a short time." ”
Li Chaosheng was stunned when he heard this, looked at Gu Zi and said, "What's the matter?" ”
"Chongzhen wanted to flee south, but he didn't want to bear the infamy, so he wanted the minister to take the lead in proposing to move south, and then he took the opportunity to agree, when the time came, he could not only complete the purpose of his southward migration, but also not bear the infamy of destroying the ancestral foundation, which can be described as killing multiple birds with one stone, but Chongzhen's trust is not a person, but found Chen Xinjia, the secretary of the Ministry of War."
"Maybe Chongzhen also thinks that Chen Xinjia is not from Jiangnan, and the connection with his colleagues in Jiangnan is not as deep as he imagined, so he wants Chen Xinjia to propose a move south, and he also promises heavy benefits, saying that if Chen Xinjia is willing to move south, then the position of the first assistant of the cabinet will be left to Chen Xinjia."
"But I once thought that Chen Xinjia was not satisfied with Chongzhen's promise, or maybe he didn't dare to bear the infamy of being the first to propose moving the capital, or he didn't want to offend the Jiangnan officials, so he played a game, he actually put such an important secret letter on the table, and then left the study, and then the family members went to clean the study, and accidentally saw the secret letter, and then the news was spread out, and now the city is all over the city!"
"Chongzhen he couldn't hold his face, and in a fit of rage, he arrested Chen Xinjia, put him in prison, and wanted to be executed for a crime of defaming the saint, but the Chinese Wu of the dynasty actively rescued, and Zhou Yanru, the head of the cabinet, took the lead in enlightening the emperor, this matter is a rumor that Chen Xinjia's family in the palace is indiscriminate, resulting in the humiliation of His Majesty's holy name, this matter should be strictly dealt with in Chen Xinjia's mansion to spread this rumor, and Chen Xinjia does not know about this matter at all, let alone has no secret letter, Chen Xinjia is a crime of unstrict royal care, should not be executed!"
Chongzhen was particularly puzzled when he heard this, but in the end, it was the great eunuch Wang Chengen who said to him: Your Majesty, Lord Chen Xinjia has never received this false secret letter, but the mouthy subordinates made it up indiscriminately, which caused the people in the capital to panic now, if Your Majesty killed Chen Xinjia because of this matter, but did it solidly, Your Majesty wrote a secret letter to Chen Xinjia This false accusation, so Lord Chen is a crime of lax royal care, although the consequences are very bad, but the crime is not death!"
"Emperor Chongzhen was stunned when he heard this, and felt that Wang Chengen was right, if he killed Chen Xinjia, he would be suspected of covering his ears and stealing the bell.
"And Chongzhen also ordered that he Chongzhen is willing to live and die with the Ming Dynasty, although the court is difficult now, but it is difficult to hide his determination to protect the foundation of his ancestors, so in the future, anyone who dares to move the capital to Jiangnan will be severely punished!"
As soon as this slogan was shouted, the Jiangnan officials led by Zhou Yanru all knelt on the ground and shouted Your Majesty Shengming!"
Hearing this, Li Chaosheng sneered: "Heh, can you not be sageful? Now the land and interests of Jiangnan are basically divided up by these Jiangnan officials, and an emperor descends from thin air, and the damage to their interests is really too great, how can they be willing to have such a big loss of their interests? Now that the emperor is gone, their interests are stable, how can they say that the emperor is not holy, it is really a group of corpses and vegetarians, shameful! ”
Gu Zi heard this on the side and said with a smile: "The county lord said this very much. ”
Li Chaosheng thought for a while and said, "How about Li Zicheng?" ”
Gu Zi said: "Li Zicheng has almost looted the rich households in Shandong, but the people have not moved, Brother Chaolong's first army has already been stationed on the border of Henan, as long as Li Zicheng leaves Shandong, we can enter Shandong and occupy the entire territory of Shandong, if Shandong is occupied, we can directly connect to Jeju Island, and when the time comes, we will not have to work so hard to transport things to Jeju Island." ”
Li Chaosheng rubbed his eyebrows at this time and said: "Tongzhi Guo Bao, step up to send the governor to the province we are about to develop, and then carry out population inventory and make a book, distribute land, work for relief, build water conservancy, and build basic livelihood projects, these can not be delayed, especially the population count, is the top priority, although these five provinces have suffered disasters, but the people's base is still there, we must immediately count the number of people, and we must not allow the previous hidden households, domestic slaves and these personnel are not registered, and they are not counted as population." ”
Li Chaosheng is very busy now, Lantian is even busier, Lantian now has a population of 12 million, referring to about 8 million in Shaanxi, and the rest is several regions in Gansu, and several regions in Hubei add up to 4 million, but there are still many people who have not been counted clearly, in addition, the population of Qinghai, Hunan, Guangxi, Henan and other areas that Lantian has actually occupied is combined, Li Chaosheng estimates that it cannot be less than 35 million.
When the time comes, including Shandong, at least 40 million people will be waiting for their own relief and restoration of people's livelihood.
But now Lantian has not even counted a detailed household registration book, which is very excessive, as for the seized household registration book of the Ming Dynasty, that is, a piece of waste paper, not to mention the big families of the Ming Dynasty before the war, the official eunuchs like to hide the household registration and pay less taxes, so there are a large number of hidden households.
Not to mention the famine, war, and the population flow is very serious, so this once Ming household registration, now there is no reference value left, and those who believe in the household registration are not as reliable as filling in a number blindly.
Therefore, Lantian is very busy now, but the most important thing is to find out how many people there are in the province that Li Chaosheng took over, this is very important, after all, Liu Bang was able to dominate the world back then, and the most important measure was that after Xiao He entered Xianyang, he blocked the Prime Minister's Mansion of Daqin, got the household registration of Daqin, and knew the output value of Daqin that year, which was the most important foundation for Liu Bang to rule the world later.
The governors of various localities should take the lead in finding out how many people there are in the local area, record 1510, distribute the land, and then use this as the basis for the distribution of agricultural tools, ploughing cattle and other means of production, so that a series of things such as resuming production and restoring people's livelihood can be carried out at the fastest speed.
Li Chaosheng thought about it and said to Gu Zi: "Inform the Political Department of my thoughts immediately, when Guo Bao first came, I didn't expect that the population had not been figured out, so I came over to ask for money and reprimanded him for me!" ”
Guo Bao is also miserable, not long after he was happy, he just went back to his office and sat down, Li Chaosheng's rebuke arrived, Guo Bao listened to Li Chaosheng's rebuke and knew that he was negligent, these days he patronized with his colleagues to study how to make money, but he forgot about this most important census, this is absolutely undeserved!
Thinking of Guo Bao, he issued a document from the Political Department, requiring the governors at all levels to count the population of their jurisdictions, and there can be no concealment, and all hidden households must report as soon as possible, and if they do not report, they will not be given land, and this matter must be strictly investigated and handled, and there must be no appeasement!
The policy was issued, and the big machine in Lantian rotated wildly.
Li Chaosheng continued to talk to Gu Zi about the capital, now Chongzhen can be regarded as anxious, and the whole capital is also rumored, and now there are rich families who want to flee to Jiangnan every day, but most of them have encountered bandits halfway, and some people have died, and few people dare to flee anymore.
And because Li Zicheng is still isolated outside Hebei, many rich people are not so desperate, thinking that the Ming Dynasty of more than 260 years cannot be so unlucky, and it will be destroyed when it comes to me, and many of them have stayed in the capital by luck.
Moreover, Chongzhen now began to gather all kinds of general troops, stationed troops in Hebei, and decided to fight a protracted war with Li Zicheng, as long as he could block Li Zicheng's attack, Daming might be able to rescue him.
However, Chongzhen fell ill in a state of grief, and the news spread far and wide, gradually spreading to the outside world, but Chongzhen was still working sick, and he was very happy.
As the cradle of Lantian future talents, the academy attaches great importance to broadening students' knowledge, so they often take out some current affairs news inside and outside Lantian to discuss with students, and will also explain some policies issued by the government to students in great detail, explaining the pros and cons of students in related disciplines, which is very important to broaden students' horizons.
This is very important for cultivating students, and Li Chaosheng called it an open eye to the world.
And this time, the news of the capital also quickly spread to the academy, and at this time, the students of the academy were discussing the situation in the capital.
"Hey, have you heard? Chongzhen was scared, he was blocked by Li Zicheng in Hebei, he actually wanted to abandon his ancestral foundation and move south, and what was even more ridiculous was that he didn't dare to bear the public opinion of the outside world, and wanted to throw the pot to Chen Xinjia, but he was sold by Chen Xinjia, which made the people in the capital panic and talked about it, which is funny! ”
"Isn't it? I've heard about it too, it's so funny, do you know how Chongzhen's secret letter to Chen Xinjia got out, it turned out to be seen on Chen Xinjia's desk when the people were cleaning, you think it's not ridiculous? ”
"Hey, I also know about this, it's so funny, I said that if you are Chen Xinjia, the emperor has written you a secret letter, can you just put it on the desk and leave the study by yourself? Anyway, if it were me, I would definitely not be able to leave, if the county could write me a secret letter, I would burn it after reading it, and I would melt the ashes with water, and I would never leak it! ”
"Isn't it? Almost everyone knows that Chen Xinjia deliberately sold Chongzhen, but Chongzhen can't kill him, killing him is equivalent to Chongzhen admitting that he wrote this secret letter, I have to say that Chen Xinjia, this old guy, has a bit of wisdom, such a disaster can be easily resolved when it falls on his head, not an ordinary person! ”
"Yes, if you want me to say, how can there be a fuel-efficient lamp in this Manchu Dynasty, and the emperor is tired enough to fight with them every day, by the way, Chongzhen is sick, do you know?"
"Can you not know? Who is such a big deal, who is not sick, hey, senior sister! ”
"Senior sister!"
A group of students were discussing, and then they saw Zhao Ziying walking over with Zhu Yujiao, Zhu Yujiao's face was blue at this time, she already knew about the affairs of the capital, she felt that she should not stay in Lantian anymore, but should go back to the capital!
