Chapter 375: Wuchang is lost
Military Aircraft Division.
Jin Jian, the Minister of the Interior and the Right Attendant of the Household Department, is reporting to the foreman, the military aircraft.
Also accompanying the report were the Manchu military aircraft Suo Lin and the Han military aircraft Liang Guozhi, as well as the household department Shangshu Yonggui.
The cabinet that Solin entered last year was peaceful and indisputable, that is, what the folk call a good man, or the grass on the wall, which side of the wind blew to which side, so the old man let him continue to work in the military aircraft.
When Liang Guozhi of the Han military machine was the governor of Hubei, his immediate boss was Fu Lehun, who was the governor of Huguang at the time, and the two had many contacts in Hubei and had a good relationship.
Therefore, this report mainly involves the banner fields of several princes of the county, and the head of the household department, Shangshu Yonggui, as the leader in charge of the land, must give professional opinions for Fu Zhongtang's reference.
"After the detailed investigation of the past records by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Prince Zhuang's Mansion has 550,000 mu of flag fields, Prince Xian's Mansion has 900,000 mu of flag fields, Prince Jian's Mansion flag fields are about 700,000 mu, Pingjun Wangfu flag fields are 470,000 mu, and the four palaces have a total of more than 260 mu of flag fields. If the Military Aircraft Department really needs to conduct a thorough investigation, it is feasible to appoint special personnel to find out in Wenzhili, Shanxi, Shandong, Henan, Shuntian, etc."
This piece of Qitian was archived when the Eight Banners were enclosed at the beginning of the country, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs only needs to look through the records of the fields given over the years to get an approximate number.
Together with the four hat palaces that committed the crime, the number of banner fields occupied by the princes of the clan is as high as tens of millions of mu, and most of them are fertile fields in the Gyeonggi area.
At that time, the Eight Banners enclosed land, and there was almost no Han land in Gyeonggi.
Within 300 miles of Beijing, Liangxiang, Sanhe, Ninghe, Shunyi, Pinggu, Changping, Xianghe, Baodi, Tongzhou, Jizhou, Wuqing and other prefectures and counties are 100% of the fertile land returned to the Eight Banners.
In Shuntian, Baoding, Chengde, Yongping, Hejian and other prefectures within 500 miles, all Han people who have good land will be enslaved by people with houses and land, which causes a large number of Han people to flee, and they have to introduce the "Fugitive Law" to strictly govern the Han people.
This law is still in place today, but the punishment has been lightened compared to the Shunzhi and Kangxi periods.
It's just that there is a book in Qitian to check, and the land purchased by the palace belongs to the palace's own property, not in the public school, and the four palaces were looted by the rebels, and now the people of the internal affairs office can't even enter the door, so the internal affairs government has no way of knowing how much land the four princes hat palace has bought in a hundred years.
Jin Jian conservatively estimates that when it is not less than the number of Qitian, after all, the best thing for princes to do in the past hundred years is to do two things, one is to buy land, and the other is to monopolize the business that can make money in the market.
The banner people are not allowed to do business, but no one dares to prevent the prince from making a fortune.
It is the banner people who do business, and now it has long existed in name only, and eighty percent of the business in the city and the outer city is run by the banner people, and some of them are looking for some Han people to show up in private in order to look good. If the Han people want to do business in Beijing, they must also find a flag man to do the background, otherwise the business will not last long.
Compared with the field property and the commercial property, the so-called Yulu is just a trick to coax children.
really depends on that little money, and the prince's family has to go out to ask for food at the end of the year.
"So many Qitian?"
The old man called Jin Jian's report was stunned, he knew that the princes had a lot of land, but they didn't want to start with hundreds of thousands of acres, thinking that he was now the foreman of the military aircraft minister, and his family only bought a few hundred acres of land in Tongzhou, compared with the princes, not even a fucking fraction.
Liang Guozhi was also surprised, and asked Jin Jian how much is an acre of flag fields on the market now.
"Flag fields are all fertile land, only allowed to be purchased within the flag, only rented and not sold to the outside world, that is, they can be cultivated by Han tenants, but they are not allowed to be transferred. According to the understanding of the lower officials, the high level of fertile land in the Gyeonggi area is 16,700 taels and 1 mu, and the low ones are always 12 taels. ”
At the beginning of the country, Shunzhi Ye Nahui Gyeonggi had only 2321 acres of good land, but after a hundred years of Chengping in the Qing Dynasty, the price of this land has been rising, and in some places the fertile land is as high as more than 20 21 acres, and a large concentration of land has begun to lead to the evil consequences of high land prices.
"In this way, the flag fields of the four royal mansions can be sold for forty or fifty million taels, and if there is any self-purchased land, the deficit in my Qing treasury can be flattened."
Fu Lehun began to make small calculations, not the abacus of the banner fields of these four royal mansions, but the abacus of the three banners of Manchuria.
That pot is more than the land of the four guilty princes.
It's just that the Five Banners of Manchuria, the Eight Banners of Mongolia, and the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty are all under the idea of the Three Banners of Farmland, and it is difficult to nationalize this pot to solve the financial crisis.
This matter needs to be discussed with the six sons and brothers, after all, it should be effective for the six sons and brothers to speak on the side of the Han Eight Banners.
Hubu Shangshu Yonggui asked Jin Jian what the other industries of the four palaces were, and this Jin Jian couldn't answer again, because he couldn't enter the palace to check the accounts.
Suolin looked at Fu Lehun: "Fu Zhongtang, do you want to say hello to Jia Jia Shikai and ask him to withdraw the troops first?" What should be collected from the Ministry of Internal Affairs should still be collected, what is it like to occupy the palace like this? ”
Liang Guozhi and Jin Jian were silent, it was the soldiers of the infantry army who commanded the yamen who dominated the four palaces, and those soldiers could only be commanded by Jia Jia Shikai, the problem was that Fu Zhongtang and this Jia Jia Shikai also seemed to have contradictions.
"I'll go into the palace to discuss this matter with the emperor, so let's do it, the Internal Affairs Office will first send someone to the Qitian of the four royal palaces to verify, don't ask the big and small Zhuang head of the village to take advantage of the loophole and hide it and not report it."
Jin Jian nodded, and that's all the Internal Affairs Office can do now.
Liang Guozhi asked: "What about opening a note?" ”
The strip is the voucher for entering and exiting the city, and now it is an extraordinary period, and there are still thieves lurking in the city, so anyone who enters and exits the city needs to open a strip at the place where the military aircraft can travel.
"Let's go."
The old man took a sip of the tea bowl and said to Suo Lin: "The emperor Luan will drive to Tailing in three days, and the Shangsanqi guards will be responsible for the safety of Luan, and Shuntianfu and Baoding Mansion will be instructed to receive supplies along the way. ”
Solin answered, hesitated and asked, "Fu Zhongtang, where is the Queen Mother?" ”
"The Queen Mother?"
The old man was stunned for a moment, he was too busy this time, but he forgot the old man of the Queen Mother who was still lying in Cining Palace.
Yonggui spoke: "The top priority is to clarify the rumors of the emperor's life experience, otherwise there is no way to talk about the queen mother's burial." ”
The old man nodded in agreement, this is the case, if the result of the emperor's test is not the son of the first emperor, can the queen mother still be the queen mother?
Really fanfare to bring the Queen Mother and her old people to Tailing together, will they be buried or not?
Two things were discussed, one was that the Military Aircraft Department planned an edict urging Dingxi General Fengsheng to enter Huguang to quell the rebellion and recover Jingzhou and Wuchang.
The second is to instruct Chen Huizu, the governor of Huguang, who lost the city and lost his land, and had no way to defend the land, to reduce the three products to stay in office, and organize the soldiers to recapture Wuchang, so as not to let the thieves go down the river to the east, otherwise Chen Huizu and Zheng Dafa, the governor of Hubei, committed suicide.
Wuchang, lost six days ago.
