Chapter 324: Breaking Ground

Suffocate.

To be honest, relics may be relatively unfamiliar to future generations.

But in this era, it is familiar.

Even people who don't believe in Buddhism know a lot about it.

After all, in Buddhism, relics are regarded as the result of a monk's practice.

Because of this, almost all temples, as soon as a monk sits down and gives birth to relics, they will immediately start to create momentum.

As a result of this word-of-mouth propaganda, whether you believe in Buddhism or not, you are often familiar with relics.

This golden relic is almost the rarest of all relics.

People only hear about it in legends.

But in the major temples, there has never been a monk who can burn gold relics.

In fact, this is understandable, after all, there are many elements in the human body.

But only people can't refine gold.

At this time, everyone only felt shocked.

This golden relic is like glass, not only that, but it is still huge.

This...... I'm afraid that the real Buddha may not be able to burn out.

Zhu Di looked at this relic, his tears were suddenly contained, and he turned to a very relieved expression.

In any case, the monk has obtained the good fruit, and looking at this relic, I am afraid that he is now enjoying happiness in the Western Heavens, at least it should be at the level of the Arhats.

The monks were even more surprised and speechless, and they didn't care about the loss of etiquette in front of the king, and began to recite the scriptures one by one.

The officials were shocked, as soon as the news of this golden relic came out, Yao Guangxiao could be regarded as a real virtuous monk who was difficult to come out of for a thousand years.

After that, I'm afraid that people will sing his legend.

In the sound of bells and drums, someone cleaned up the golden relics, and then the monks were a little troubled.

Originally, they had prepared a treasure box to hold relics, but now it seems that this box is too small, who would have thought that such a thing would be practiced?

At that moment, I had to find a robe, hold this golden relic, and enshrine it in front of the Buddha.

People began to preach about the golden relics, and the monks of Jiming Temple trembled, so they recited the scriptures one after another.

All of a sudden, the Jiming Temple was suddenly solemn, and the officials trembled, Zhu Di was overjoyed, glanced at Zhang Anshi, and beckoned.

Zhang Anshi hurriedly stepped forward.

Zhu Di patted him on the shoulder: "It's hard work." ”

Zhang Anshi said: "It's not hard. ”

That being said, this practice of relics is really physical work.

If it weren't for the problem of the stove, Zhang Anshi actually wanted to practice a bigger one.

Pity...... The level of science and technology is limited......

Zhang Anshi had no choice but to recite in his heart: "Master Yao, don't blame me, I have done my best." ”

Zhang Anshi thought again, from now on, he had to set the rules according to Master Yao's relics standards.

In the future, if you refine the relics, you must not exceed Master Yao's standards, and the Heavenly King Laozi must be smaller than it.

And it is never allowed to refine gold relics.

Zhang Anshi thought so in his heart, and couldn't help but feel sad from his heart.

Occur...... Master Yao became a relic, and from then on, everything was really empty, and I couldn't help but feel it.

At noon, after eating fast, Zhang Anshi accompanied him down the mountain.

Zhu Di asked Zhang Anshi about the construction of the pagoda.

Zhang Anshi said: "Your Majesty rest assured, everything is safe, and the minister has recruited enough craftsmen to build a unique pagoda." ”

Zhu Di said: "My mausoleum ......"

He looked hesitant.

It stands to reason that when the emperor ascends the throne, he will start building a mausoleum, but Zhu Di's mausoleum has been delayed.

This is because Zhu Di has his own selfishness, and since he ascended the throne, he planned to move the capital to Beiping, so the address of the mausoleum was chosen in Beiping after moving the capital.

As a result, the matter has been delayed.

But now, Yao Guangxiao wants to enter the ancestral temple and accompany Zhu Di, so it is urgent to build Zhu Di's mausoleum.

In front of him, the location of Zhu Di's mausoleum had to be finalized quickly.

As soon as Zhang Anshi heard Zhu Di mention this matter, he couldn't help but say: "Long live Your Majesty, the matter of the mausoleum, naturally there is no need to think about it in a hurry." ”

Zhu Di smiled and said: "What long live, that's a lie, Emperor Taizu Gao can't escape birth, old age, sickness and death, how can I escape...... I originally intended to move the capital to Beiping, but now that I think about it, the enemy in the north is no longer my Ming henchman. On the contrary, the enemy on the sea is worried, and the capital is in Nanjing, which is not bad, here is the ancient capital of several dynasties, down the river, it is the mouth of the Songjiang River, connecting the north and the south ......"

"Hey, it's time, it's time to prepare for my mausoleum, I will order the ceremonial officer to go and explore, and choose a place close to the filial piety mausoleum. Master Yao's pagoda is in my mausoleum, let him stay with me forever in the future. ”

Zhang Anshi also understood Zhu Di's thoughts, so he hurriedly said: "Obey the order." ”

"Taiping Mansion ......"

Now he is speaking in private, so Zhu Di has no taboo when he speaks: "Taiping Mansion...... I have given you full power, do you understand what I mean? ”

Zhang Anshi said: "The minister understands. ”

"Do it." Zhu Di glanced at him deeply, and then continued: "What will the world become in the future, I hope on you, you can't do it alone." But if you want to succeed, the first thing is to select talents, cultivate the talents around you, and let them do their best to achieve great things. ”

Zhang Anshi nodded and said: "Actually, on the minister's side, the first batch of official schools and schools are about to graduate, and the minister plans to leave a group of people who will enter the various prefectures and county offices of Taiping Mansion in addition to those who have entered Jinyiwei." ”

Zhu Di bowed: "Hmm." This is also a way to do this, this reader...... If you can use it, you can use it too. ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Your Majesty means ......"

Zhu Di said: "Don't regard all the scholars as your enemies, if you push them all to the opposite side of you, how can you do it?" There are so many people in the world who read books, some people are proud, and some people are disappointed. There are a lot of down-and-out scholars, and you need people in the prefecture and county, so you can recruit some. But...... Don't use it too much, teach them to start with the scribes and make selections. ”

Zhang Anshi said: "The minister also has this meaning, so ...... I intend to mention the treatment of scribes again. There are also ministers who plan to promulgate the law of officials directly in the Taiping Mansion to determine the status of civil servants. Although there was treatment in the past, after all, they were still not at ease, and they were directly enacted with laws to protect them, which taught them to feel at ease. ”

Zhu Di smiled, but he was still a little reluctant. Yao Guangxiao's death touched him a lot.

More than a month has passed.

After a month's effort, it seems that all of a sudden, the world has calmed down.

Even the former Ning Guofu gradually began to live in peace.

With Shao Yin Gaoxiang and others here, new county orders have been put in office, and these county orders are almost all subordinate officials of the former Taiping Mansion, and most of them are the original county officials and the main book.

As for the other officials, they were filled by some officials.

As a result, there was another vacancy in the priesthood, and a new clerk was in his place.

This is almost a major adjustment of the entire Taiping Mansion.

Many people were sparse and suddenly promoted.

If in the past, the promotion of Jingzhao Mansion made them two levels in a row, then this time, a large number of dedicated scribes suddenly have a future.

All of a sudden, everyone who has changed from a scribe to an official is smiling.

Even those who have not been promoted can't help but blush now.

This kind of thing is like this, I have been a scribe all my life, and there is no way to have a future, everyone naturally has their own cognition, and they can just mess around.

But now I want to mess around and can't get it, because everyone is rolling, who doesn't want the carp to jump over the dragon gate and suddenly become an official?

If others can, it means that you can too.

Now the new system of Taiping Mansion is complicated, as long as things are done sophisticated, there are many opportunities, if you don't work hard at this time, then you are really sorry for your ancestors, and you are sorry for your descendants.

What's more, if you want to lie flat, you can't stand the people around you to roll.

So, don't say that it is the new official who needs three fires to take office, that is, the scribes at the bottom are now full of energy.

The situation in the six counties has finally been thoroughly figured out.

At this time, Gao Xiang specially came from Xuancheng County and had a secret conversation with Zhang Anshi.

Zhang Anshi has read a stack of data, including the latest yellow book information, the cultivated land data of each county, and all the numbers, which are very detailed.

Of course, this needs to be meticulous, and there can be no mistakes, because in the past, statistics only involved the basis of taxes, but now, there is more basis for taking land.

If you miss anyone, you will definitely make trouble.

After Zhang Anshi saw it, he said sincerely: "Well done." ”

He felt a little sorry for the scribes who had cleared the population and land, this kind of most cumbersome data, and it was extremely painful to check it over and over again to ensure that it was safe.

Gao Xiang said: "The people below are almost sleepless, and they don't talk about it, even if they are the scribes who have verified, they all take the trouble to visit Jiulai, just because they are worried that something will go wrong." ”

Zhang Anshi nodded: "At the end of the year, all the participants will be given an allowance, which should be recorded." ”

For those who do their best, Zhang Anshi has always been generous.

Gao Xiang smiled and said, "Grandpa's work is atmospheric." ”

"It's not that I'm angry, but if I do something, I have to give money." Zhang Anshi said: "Having said that, everything is ready now, and only the east wind is owed." ”

"I thought about it, and the next thing to do is to let the model battalion go to the six counties to perform."

"This 1.7 million mu of cultivated land can only be divided in six counties, excluding non-peasant households, who already have a livelihood in the city, and those whose land is more than 30 mu, totaling 320,000 households?"

Gao Xiang immediately nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Zhang Anshi groaned: "The situation of each village and each village is different, some villages and Zhuangzi have more land, and some have less land, but if the neighboring villages and neighboring villages are divided, this is not appropriate, not only is it easy to cause contradictions, but also ...... The land is too far away to be cultivated. ”

"Actually, this is the most difficult problem right now."

Zhang Anshi said: "Then we can only divide it evenly based on the situation of each village and each village...... Of course, some land should be reserved for the Taiping Mansion for future construction workshops and other purposes, but try not to occupy arable land. ”

"Each village and its own village will be divided?" Gao Xiang said: "If there are some villages, each household may be divided into 30 acres, and some ...... I'm afraid that it can only be divided into a dozen acres. ”

Zhang Anshi said: "There is no way to do this, if you don't divide it like this, you can't plough the low near your home today, and then go to a few Zhuangzi to plough the land more than ten miles away." ”

Gao Xiang thought for a while and said: "Xia Guan thinks that the division of land cannot be simply based on households, but also according to the number of males in the family. ”

"yes, that's a note as well." Zhang Anshi said: "Think about it again, what else do you have to suggest, now that the heat is almost over, then select an auspicious day and directly promulgate and implement it." The model battalion went to the six counties, so as not to cause trouble. As for the original three counties of Taiping Prefecture, there is no land division here, but I am afraid that they are not happy in their hearts, but ...... The precedent of these six counties is not necessarily a bad thing for them. ”

Gao Xiang said: "There is also Jinyiwei, Jinyiwei these days, I'm afraid it will be harder, grandpa must be released in those days, monitor at any time, just in case." ”

Zhang Anshi bowed his head: "That's for sure, dare to make trouble in my Zhang Anshi's land, and don't look at how many catties and taels they have." ”

Gao Xiang smiled, and Zhang Anshi's words also gave him a lot of confidence.

It is not easy for this new policy to open up the situation, and only people like the grandfather will come, otherwise any court official who wants to open up a new situation will be constrained everywhere.

At this time, Zhang Anshi said again: "It is also a loss to the gentry and village sages of these six counties to die by themselves, and now they ...... It's all cut off, and if not, it's really not easy to do. Ay...... After all, it's still Master Yao...... Cleared the way for us. ”

When Yao Guangxiao was mentioned, Zhang Anshi couldn't help but feel sad, and he was even more touched when he thought of what Yao Guangxiao had done for this.

These six counties have almost become the best control group at the moment.

As for what will happen next, or rather, whether there will be any chaos in a six counties with almost no gentry and village sages, the result will be seen in a few years.

This is a road that has never been conceived, and there are many people in the world who have put forward their own ideas, such as the famous Fang Xiaoru, who has not proposed to restore the well field system of the Zhou Dynasty?

As for the land system in the six counties, no one has ever practiced it, and now it ...... But because of a large eucalyptus, the most favorable conditions were created.

This is a path that Yao Guangxiao fought out with his life.

At that moment, Zhang Anshi asked Gao Xiang to rest first.

Three days later, Zhang Anshi wore a python robe and personally summoned the officials.

Today, he is extremely serious, and the officials in the government don't know what is going on, and whisper.

But at this time, Zhang Anshi came in in a hurry, and immediately said with a smile on his face: "The new six counties under the jurisdiction of the Taiping Mansion have been exploited by the corrupt officials in the past, and the people have been displaced, and they will not be able to survive. From today...... I have a charter for all the princes to look at. ”

Subsequently, a scribe distributed a copy of the charter.

The officials were busy looking, and when they saw it, they were all stunned.

Zhang Anshi took in their reactions, but said firmly: "How is it?" ”

Only then did everyone notice that Wei Guogong was wearing a python robe, but he also came with a sword.

The officials of the Taiping Mansion have long been 'ruined', they are almost outside the Taiping Mansion, they appear in the form of harlequins, and many of those relatives and friends in the past also despise them.

But people are like this, they worked in Taiping Mansion, and they made such a great effort, so naturally and slowly, they formed a sense of identity with Taiping Mansion.

You despise me, and I despise you!

When people's thinking and vision are broad, their ideas are different.

But even so, Li Zhaomo still stood up first and said, "Grandpa, if that's the case...... Wouldn't it be too rushed? I'm afraid that if this matter is released, it will cause a lot of criticism. ”

Zhang Anshi only looked at him and said, "Are you afraid of criticism?" ”

This rhetorical question directly stopped Li Zhaomo.

Zhang Anshi smiled: "Don't everyone outside say that we are traitorous and evil? Will the traitorous and evil people still be afraid of criticism? We can't be gentlemen, but we have our principles and principles, that is...... Govern a true paradise on earth. ”

"If you think that there is something wrong with the measures here, you can put it forward, but if it is because you are afraid of causing controversy, you don't need to mention it."

After hearing this, Li Zhaomo also thought about it, so he continued to look down at the measures, and after taking a closer look, he said: "The lower officials think there is no problem, but the Zhaomo Institute has to send some people to the six counties to supervise the students, for fear that there will be something wrong in the middle of this land." ”

"Xia Guan also thinks there is no problem."

"If the people can get more than ten to thirty acres of land per household, they don't know how grateful they should be. Wei Guogong's move is tantamount to the rebirth of a saint. ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Don't brag about this, since all the princes think it's appropriate, doesn't anyone have any other suggestions?" ”

After a moment of silence, an ambassador from Kuraji stepped forward.

This ambassador of Cangsi is just a nine-rank official, and he is not in the stream, and he is obviously not from the right path to the imperial examination.

He thought about it for a while, and then said: "Grandpa, dividing the land is only the first step, although the land is divided, but the water conservancy matter cannot be left undone." According to the lower officials, land, water conservancy, grain seeds, these things, for agriculture, are all indispensable things, here is to say, to set up land offices in each county, it is better to have a water conservancy office, a granary, the land planned land, recorded in the eucalyptus, as the basis for future tax collection, but water conservancy needs to coordinate the irrigation and water diversion of each county, this is a sloppy matter. ”

After a pause, he continued: "In the past, when the gentry were there, because they had a lot of land, they would recruit people and build a reservoir to divert water to their fields, but now the land is divided, and everyone only has dozens of acres of land. There is also this granary, the counties built warehouses, not only for the purpose of collecting grain, but also responsible for the promotion of grain varieties, a few days ago, Xia Guan went to the farm in Qixia to see, the grain cultivated there, not ordinary people can be compared......"

He babbled a lot, but the idea was that if the owner of the land changed, then perhaps the mode of production had also changed, and the government should take precautions and strengthen the functions in certain directions to replace some of the functions of the former gentry.

Zhang Anshi smiled, his eyes showed appreciation, and said, "This idea is good, what is your name?" ”

Hearing Zhang Anshi ask for his name, the ambassador of this Cangsi was flattered: "Xiaguan Liu Wending." ”

Zhang Anshi said heartily: "You scholars, you like to bring a text to your name. Haha, you have to draw up a charter for this matter, and the government and the county will follow it. ”

"Ah...... This...... Xiaguan... Humble ...... Where ......"

Zhang Anshi said with a smile: "Soon you won't worry about your humble official position, and you will think about getting things done first." ”

Liu Wending didn't expect that one of his initiatives would directly change his fate, and he was dizzy for a while, so he hurriedly said: "Obey." ”

Many people can't help but look at Liu Wending with envy.

Zhang Anshi looked at the reactions of other people again, and then said: "If there are any other initiatives, you can find a way to send them." But at the moment, the most important thing is to get this matter done, there must be no mistakes, all the yamen must move, and whoever makes a mistake, I will go to find someone at night. But when things are done, it is a great achievement. ”

Everyone suddenly cheered up and said, "Obey." ”

Within a day's effort, the entire Taiping Mansion, from the prefecture to the county, even in the poor countryside, began to post lists.

The various yasmen also began to take action, especially in the new six counties, and the county order began to supervise the officials under them to divide the land according to the yellow book. The scribes went to the countryside, urged the governors in various places, and sent people to preach everywhere, and the lieutenants led people to strictly guard against it, for fear that people would make trouble. The county is often located in a more important township and personally manages affairs. The local chief bookkeeper takes the people from all the houses in the county to handle chores.

Because it came so suddenly, everyone was unprepared.

But when everyone's eyes were black, the government sent detailed land data and population data, and intimately told you how to get it.

Therefore, although it was chaotic, there was no big mess.

At this time, Zhu Yong's model battalion was also conducting drills in a mountainous area in six counties.

Immediately afterwards, there was a letter of recital, which was quickly sent into the palace.

Inside the Wenyuan Pavilion.

After reading the report, the scholars were dumbfounded.

Hu Guang was directly stunned, stunned for a long time, then took the report and hurriedly sent it to Yang Rong: "Yang Gong...... Yang Gong ......"

Yang Rong glanced at the newspaper and smiled bitterly at him: "I have seen it." ”

Hu Guang stiffened his face and said: "It's too unusual, it's really too unreasonable." Did you see what it says? Forcibly take it, take it by force. ”

"Who did you take by force?" Yang Rongdao.

"This ......" Hu Guang was stunned.

These words suddenly asked Hu Guang.

Yang Rong said: "This is a borderless land, the original owners of these lands have been raided because of rebellion, is it not a fact that they rebelled?" ”

Hu Guang blinked, but calmed down, and said, "That's true...... Eh, this imperial history is really wonderful. When the old man first saw it, there was a nameless fire in his heart. ”

"But ......" Yang Rong couldn't say these two words, so he smiled bitterly again: "This Wei Guogong's courage is really big!" There's really nothing in this world that he doesn't dare to do, and with that, you have to admire him! ”
