Zhu Houzhao nodded proudly and glanced at Liu Jin beside him. Liu Jin took out a three-legged pottery and handed it to Li Dongyang. After Li Dongyang took it and looked at it carefully, he asked Zhu Houzhao suspiciously: "Your Majesty, this is the three-legged pottery of Yin merchants in the Shaanxi and Gansu regions, it is not unusual."

Liu Jin smiled and said: "This is a vessel used by the Yindian, Master Li is a Jinshi family, since it is identified as a three-legged pottery of Yin Shang in the Shaanxi and Gansu areas, can the Yindianan people be identified as descendants of Yin Shang?"

Li Dongyang shook his head, he is a big family in Jinshi, and his enthusiasm for Jinshi is far greater than being an official. "Father-in-law Liu, this is just an isolated evidence, it doesn't mean anything."

"What about this one?" Liu Jin took out another jade chrysalis and handed it over.

Li Dongyang looked at the kneeling figurine carved from this piece of green jade, and took out a magnifying glass to examine it carefully. After a while, he hesitated and asked, "This is also from the hands of the Yin Di'an people?"

"And this!" Liu Jin took out a few more rubbings.

Li Dongyang no longer had any doubts, and his eyes lit up happily: "Okay! Good! There is no doubt that the descendants of Yin Shang are descended! Your Majesty, this place is as vast as the two Ming Dynasty?"

Zhu Houzhao nodded: "Yes! Unfortunately, the road was too far, and I had already issued an order to Jinling to shoot the Japanese army and send a fleet to open up the waterway. I guess it will be unimpeded next year! Master Li, the vassal king has become a burden to the Ming Dynasty, it is better to let it out, whoever has the ability to establish another country is also a descendant of the Ming Dynasty."

Li Dongyang suddenly came to his senses, how is the vassal king just a drag? It's a cancer! Yugong has endless descendants who move mountains, and this Zhu family is no less than Yugong, with a total of at least 300,000 people. The country really can't afford it, this time it's a good opportunity, if you need to go out, it's better to bring it up yourself, otherwise it's the same party as Xingwang! Hey? Only then did Li Dongyang react, and Zhu Houzhao pulled himself over without a sound. There is no need for Zhu Houzhao to speak, he will beg Zhu Houzhao to frame the vassal king and join Zhu Houzhao. When did Zhu Houzhao become so clever?

Li Dongyang looked at Zhu Houzhao with complicated eyes, and sincerely bowed down again: "Old minister, no, please ask Your Majesty to thoroughly investigate the case of King Xing's rebellion!"

Zhu Houzhao's heart was about to explode with joy, this big change was completely guided by himself, and he finally got the most perfect result. Not only did he accidentally eradicate the hidden black hand, but also completely solved the stubborn disease of the vassal king, and even the scholars led by Li Dongyang had to surrender to their own means.

"Well, what Master Li said is that he is old and seeks the country, and I am right! King Xing failed the emperor's grace, and his sin was unforgivable. Dali Temple, Zongren Mansion, Ministry of Rites, Dongchang, Jinyiwei, assisted the cabinet to thoroughly investigate the case, and returned a bright future!"

Li Dongyang, Ma Wensheng, Jiao Fang, Zeng Jian, Qing of Dali Temple, Zhang Mao, Zongren of Zongren Mansion, Liang Chu, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, and others bowed together: "Obey the holy order!"

The Zongren Mansion actually exists in name only, the Zongren Order is only in name, and the specific affairs have been transferred to the Ministry of Rites, so Zhu Houzhao said that the Ministry of Rites also needs to participate.

Zhu Houzhao felt that the enthusiasm of the civil and military officials was still not enough, and kicked Liu Jin next to the throne. Liu Jin didn't know why, and looked back. Zhu Hou pouted angrily: "Stupid uncle! Corn!"

Liu Jin was stunned, and hurriedly took a bag from the little eunuch on the side, and shouted, "Everyone! The Yindians also breed high-yield crops, a thousand catties of land! In addition, the place where the Yindianan people are located is black soil, which is fat and flowing oil! I hope that you will inform the vassal kings when you handle the case."

Airplanes! The hall was once again in an uproar. This time is different from Xinpenglai, although it is vast, there is not much land, and there are not many indigenous people, so the Korean Chinese Wu no longer cares. But if the realm of the Yindianan people is really like what Liu Jin said, it is a treasure land that has been passed down from generation to generation!

Jiao Fang immediately keenly sensed the thoughts of the hundred officials, and asked with a smile: "Gonggong Liu, this official only knows that the yellow earth and purple soil are fertile, and he has never heard of any black soil, which is really fertile?"

Liu Jin nodded and returned the salute: "Master Jiao, I don't know if you have ever eaten Xiangxiang rice?"

"I've eaten it, but it's too expensive, and the official is shy in his pocket, so I can't afford it! Oh, could it be that this rice is grown on the black soil?"

"Yes! Xiangxiang rice is a special product of Liaodong, which is grown on the black soil. The black soil is extremely fertile, at least per mu yield than the loess

20% more! Above this hall, there is no shortage of officials who have served in Liaodong, and Liu Jin does not dare to speak falsely."

Immediately, an official in the main hall said loudly, "What Gonggong Liu said is true! This black soil has a high yield, but unfortunately it can only be harvested once a year, and the warm time is too short."

Jiao Fang was overjoyed, and immediately asked, "Gonggong Liu, where can the climate be compared to the land of Yin Di and the people?"

"Lord Jiao, there is a lot of land and resources, there are cold places like Liaodong, there are four distinct seasons like Beizhili, and there are also hot places like Jiangnan. But most of the black soil is in the land of the four seasons!"

Airplanes! The hall is in chaos again! This is no small feat! In fact, China's arable area is very small, at least compared to its huge territory. North America, on the other hand, is not only larger, but also has less complex terrain than China, and the area of cultivated land is far exceeded. The Chinese nation is a typical farming nation, and its dedication to land far exceeds that of other ethnic groups. Why does Confucianism stand out among the hundred schools? Isn't it in line with the requirements of the order of agricultural civilization? The pursuit of land, among the hundred schools, Confucianism is the worst, and now a large piece of fat is in front of you, why not be moved?

Zhu Houzhao is satisfied now, and this is what he wants! Only by tying all the officials to their chariots can the problem of the vassal king be completely solved, can the monarch and the ministers be truly united, and can a handful of political enemies be attacked.

Standing alone in the middle of the main hall, Wang Wei suddenly shouted, "How short-sighted are you? Once King Wu ascends the throne, all of them will die and have no place to be buried!"

Ma Wensheng sneered when he heard this: "Wang Wei, the disadvantages of the vassal king are already imminent, Your Majesty's move is beneficial to the country and the people, so don't waste your time again!" Leave some dignity for yourself, leave some dignity for the scholars, and go in peace!" After finishing speaking, he couldn't wait to turn his head and play: "Your Majesty, the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister. I ask Your Majesty to order the Japanese army in Jiangnan to open the shipping channel as soon as possible, and to build ocean-going cargo ships and escort fleets. There are many lawlessness among vassal kings, and once they are released overseas, I am afraid that it will be difficult to control. The old minister thought that he had to send more subordinate officials, well, redivide the fief."

Li Dongyang also stood up: "Your Majesty, what Master Ma said is very true. The old minister felt that the trial of King Xing's case should be started as soon as possible, Your Majesty, well, uh, Taizu has been crowned king so far, there are already four hundred and ninety-three people! It's not accurate, but it's pretty much the same."

Zhu Houzhao was so shocked that he stood up again, and shouted in a sharp voice: "How much? Five hundred? Oh my God!" No wonder Zhu Houzhao was not flustered, he never dreamed that there were as many as five hundred above the county king! You must know that the prince's annual rice is 10,000 stones, which is equivalent to almost 13,000 taels of silver, and the king of the county also has 2,000 stones, which is equivalent to 3 or 4,000 taels of silver. The vassal king alone is millions of taels of silver a year, and there are tens of thousands of Zhenguo generals, auxiliary generals, and Fengguo generals, which add up to an astronomical amount!

At that time, the annual financial income of the Ming Dynasty was about 20 million taels of silver, and the vassal king and the second-class Zhenguo generals ate half of the finance. How can Zhu Houzhao not be in a hurry? Li Dongyang and other people of insight are also anxious.

Zhu Houzhao's abnormal appearance made Li Dongyang smile bitterly, and nodded helplessly: "Yes, five hundred!" Hehe, Your Majesty, this is only a hundred years old! If the Ming Dynasty is in another hundred years?" As he spoke, he shivered and didn't dare to think about it again!

Speaking of the Ming Dynasty, it can be regarded as a wonderful flower in Chinese history. The Han Dynasty died in Qiang, the Tang Dynasty died in the foreign domains, and the Song Dynasty died in the scholars, but the Ming Dynasty died due to financial deficiencies. First, Zhu Yuanzhang turned back the clock in history, changing from monetary taxation to in-kind taxation, and the Ming Dynasty did not know how much he earned in a year until he perished; The second is that the burden of the vassal king is too heavy, in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the vassal king Yulu has accounted for half of the national income, and in the late Ming Dynasty, it basically accounted for two-thirds of the fiscal revenue, who can be so extravagant? It is not so much that Daming was smashed by Li Zicheng and was taken advantage of by Dolgon, but that Daming went on a collective strike from top to bottom, which became a joke.

Zhu Houzhao was short of breath, his fists were clenched, and he said firmly after a while: "I have made up my mind, and I must not leave this great problem to future generations!" Master Li, we monarchs and ministers work together to solve this problem once and for all!"

Three days later, Wang Wei was executed, and no one from Shilin saw him off when he was executed. It is reported that Wang Wei looked up to the sky and roared at that time, claiming that he wanted to pick out his eyeballs and hang them on the city gate, watching how Da Ming Shilin ended up like Wu Zixu. At that time, the wind was miserable, there were few onlookers, and there were not even a few people who ate human blood steamed buns.

The unlucky King Xing really committed suicide, and it is said that Ling Hu Xingcai personally helped him commit suicide. Thousands of miles away, the young Zhu Houxi was escorted straight to the capital, accompanied by only a child named Lu Bing.

All the scribes who were good at calligraphy in the capital gathered in the Ministry of Rites, and according to the letters of the vassal kings in various places, they began a great project and framed them. All the vassal kings except for Koji's own brothers are on the migration list.

Zhu Binhan, the king of Shu, received the letter of admonition from the Ministry of Rites, and his nose was almost crooked! He was the most famous of the vassal kings of the Zhengde Dynasty, and Hongzhi often praised him when he was alive, and even wrote a poem to him, which shows that the king of Shu is worthy of his name.

Changshi looked at Zhu Binhan's face was not good, and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter with the Great King's Rite Department?"

Zhu Binhan threw the exhortation book on the table with a snap: "Hmph! Zhu Houzhao, well, His Majesty persuaded the royal family of the side branch to re-divide the seal, saying that there are descendants of Yin Shang in the extreme east, the land is fertile, and there is a lot of gold and silver, and I hope that Lone will set an example!"

Yang Yanqing frowned, surprised: "This is not right! If this is the case, it must be His Majesty's own letter, why do you need the Ministry of Rites to act on your behalf?"
