There was a lot of commotion for many days.

There seems to be a trend of intensification.

At this time, however, the East Palace was surprisingly quiet.

Zhu Gaochi looked at the chaos in front of him and couldn't help sighing.

This mutual attack like snowflakes taught him to inevitably sigh.

When he was young, he was taught by many good teachers, and he always thought that what scholars pursued was the doctrine of saints, but as a result, a mansion made the world's talents to this point!

searched their stomachs one by one, quoted scriptures, and found reasons for sharing more real estate for themselves.

It's ridiculous.

But is it really funny when you talk about it in detail?

Zhu Gaochi is no longer the Zhu Gaochi of the past, especially after going to Henan to set up the political envoy and Guanzhong, he began to consider the problem from a new angle.

So I waited for a few days, and it didn't look good.

The crown prince finally issued an edict to quell the controversy.

The scale of the mansion is still distinguished by the high grade, but the first grade is two acres, and the seventh grade is one acre and two points, which directly pulls the gap between each other to the lowest.

As soon as this edict was issued, although it may not be convincing to everyone, it is probably acceptable.

Among them, Zhang Anshi came to the East Palace almost every day.

Since he was a child, Zhang Anshi grew up in this East Palace, and he has a clear understanding of every grass and tree here, but more than 20 years have passed, and he still has a different flavor after all.

Zhu Gaochi disposed of the music in his hand, and sometimes discussed with Zhang Anshi.

However, one of the notes made Zhu Gaochi frown slightly.

Zhu Gaochi is not only one son of Zhu Zhanji, the second son Zhu Zhanjun was born to the side concubine, and the third son Zhu Zhanyong was also born to the crown princess Zhang.

These two sons are also adults, and there are many other minor sons.

For that Zhu Zhanjun, Zhang Anshi rarely dealt with him.

However, Zhu Zhanyong, the third son born to his sister, this kid is also a restless master, on weekdays, even his uncle Zhang Anshi dares to tease, but he is not the eldest son after all, so he is also up to him on weekdays, and Zhang Anshi is too lazy to discipline.

Now many ministers have played, hoping that the prince can make plans as soon as possible and choose a fief for the second son Zhu Zhanjun and the third son Zhu Zhanyong as soon as possible.

Obviously, these performances are by no means groundless, the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty are all human spirits, and they are all very fine.

Now, the crown prince is completely in charge of the country, and he has begun to divide the house to invite people's hearts, doesn't this show that the new emperor is preparing to ascend the throne?

According to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, once the new emperor ascends the throne, then in addition to the future crown prince, the other princes had better be sent to the domain as soon as possible, so as not to stay in the capital and have many dreams at night.

At the beginning, Zhu Di left the King of Han in the capital, and there were a lot of incidents, and with this lesson from the past, it was even more necessary to send people away quickly, out of sight and out of mind.

Moreover, don't look at this as just a mediocre letter, but in fact, it is necessary to take a certain risk, because the old emperor is still there, so naturally he has not yet crowned Zhu Zhanjun and Zhu Zhanyong as kings, so let the grandson go to the domain, what does this mean?

However, the stronger the wind and waves, the more expensive the fish, this is a well-known truth.

Such a recital, to a certain extent, is actually closer to the future prince Zhu Zhanji, if Zhu Zhanji learns about this, he will inevitably favor the people who play it, and feel that these people are very sensible.

Naturally, these notes obviously have an element of opportunism.

In Zhu Gaochi's opinion, naturally there is no urgency in this matter now.

It's just that...... In a hurry, whether it is Zhu Zhanjun or Zhu Zhanyong, they are still his sons, and it is inevitable that they will be sealed to the fief in the future.

So after Zhang Anshi came today, Zhu Gaochi handed this note to Zhang Anshi.

After he finished reading it, Zhu Gaochi said, "An Shi." ”

"Eh......"

"What do you think of this?"

Zhang Anshi raised his head and said: "Your Majesty is still here, this performance is a little evasive, I think, it is more suitable to stay in the middle and not send it." ”

Zhu Gaochi smiled and said, "This palace is not talking about this, this palace is talking about ...... ...... in the future"

Zhang Anshi understood what Zhu Gaochi meant, so he said: "Now almost all the Western vassals have been carved up by the kings. Whether it's Java or Annam, or Chenla, Luzon...... Farther away, even Tianzhu has begun to be touched, and now if it continues to be divided, I am afraid that I will have to go farther away. ”

Zhu Gaochi listened, thoughtfully, he groaned, and said after a long time; "Isn't there any other place to go?"

If it is farther away, it may be thousands of miles away, and when he thinks of this, Zhu Gaochi can't help but feel distressed.

Zhang Anshi smiled and said: "Actually, it is not without a good place, this place is far away in the sky and close in front of you." ”

Zhu Gaochi was stunned for a moment, and only looked at Zhang Anshi fixedly.

Zhang Anshi said: "The ...... between the Korean State and the Japanese State"

After hearing this, Zhu Gaochi frowned and said: "This Emperor Taizu Gao's country is not conquered......"

Zhang Anshi said: "I didn't say conquest, but I just took some land and taught them to divide feudal domains, which are very big and can accommodate many princes." ”

Zhu Gaochi said with doubts: "I'm afraid that the other side will not be willing, if the imperial court raises troops because of this, it will be really inappropriate." ”

Zhang Anshi thought for a while and said, "Whether you want to or not, and not necessarily." It's better to wrap it up on me, I'll do it, anyway, it's still early, and I'm not in a hurry, this king of Korea and the king of the Japanese have always been docile, I think they will agree. ”

Zhu Gaochi groaned, and although he hesitated, he still nodded.

Obviously, whether it is the Korean State or the Japanese State, it is a stone's throw away from the Ming Dynasty, and if it is in the future, the Korean side will build another railway, which will be even closer. And the Wa Kingdom, and the Ming Dynasty can be said to be across the sea, not far away.

What's more, the folk customs of these two places mostly use Chinese characters, and the customs are similar to those of the Ming Dynasty, which is the same as Annam, and it is indeed a good place to go.

If he can take out a few pieces of land and build a domain for his sons, obviously, in the days to come, he will definitely teach the Zhu Zhanjun brothers to be easier than their uncles and uncles.

It's just that...... Zhu Gaochi is still worried that the other party will not be willing, if he is unwilling, it will be difficult to move strongly.

However, Zhang Anshi said that there is a way, Zhu Gaochi has always known Zhang Anshi's ability, since he can say it, let him try it first.

After a pause, Zhu Gaochi's words changed sharply, and he said something else, saying: "Yu Linwei's matter, you have to hurry up, don't look at Your Majesty now that he is ignoring the government and politics, but he is keeping an eye on this place." ”

Zhang Anshi smiled and said: "Your Majesty's this time, I'm afraid it will be the last test for your brother-in-law, in the coming year, my brother-in-law should show Your Majesty your brother-in-law's wrists, and it is definitely not under Emperor Taizu Gao and Your Majesty......"

"Nonsense." Zhu Gaochi glared at Zhang Anshi and reprimanded: "How can this palace be compared to Taizu and Father!" ”

Zhang Anshi said: "As a child and grandson, I dare not compare with it, this is filial piety." But from the perspective of Emperor Taizu Gao and His Majesty, especially now, His Majesty is already old, for him, what he wants to see most is his children and grandchildren, who are stronger than him. ”

Zhang Anshi was also a little less taboo in front of his brother-in-law, and said: "So at this time, it shouldn't be the time to hide it, brother-in-law, it's time to take strong medicine." ”

Zhu Gaochi glanced at Zhang Anshi deeply, and then said: "Your copy of the charter, take a look at the palace." ”

Zhang Anshi smiled and said, "I'll send it tomorrow." ”

Zhu Gaochi immediately said: "Hey, I really didn't expect that in a blink of an eye, my father and emperor are old, and the palace is not young, and you ...... It's so big. ”

Zhang Anshi said: "My brother-in-law is so dignified, how can he have such feelings? ”

Zhu Gaochi said: "It's just touching the scene, An Shi, how naughty you were when you were a child, but now you have become the right-hand man of the palace." ”

Zhang Anshi smiled.

However, Zhu Gaochi immediately began to worry again.

Because, as Zhang Anshi said, in Zhang Anshi's new constitution, there is a fierce medicine.

In addition to the next step, the construction of the railway began to be increased, and in addition to this, the laying of the telegraph also began directly. This was followed by the rotation of a large number of magistrates. Either they were sent to the feudal town, or they were recalled to the capital, and they were replaced by a large number of local officials of the railway department.

All localities need to build training courses for civil servants, and once the recruited clerks become the backbone, they will immediately study in the training courses and then be promoted to more important positions.

Those who graduated from the university hall or retired from the model battalion were transferred to various prefectures and counties in the world to serve as civil and military officials.

In places where the new policy has not yet been implemented, the land of the gentry is required not to exceed 100 mu per household, and if it is exceeded, it will be forced to be sold at a low price.

Waterways everywhere in the world need to be desilted, and all the farmers who have taken the land need to organize themselves and repair the water conservancy.

In each county, there are agricultural offices, medical colleges, veterinary offices, water conservancy, land, education, etc.

Establish a unified tax agency and go deep into the counties and townships.

The military households were completely abolished, the Tan people were no longer recognized, the judicial university hall was established, and the training of specialized judges began.

The new code was revised to add civil law and commercial law in addition to the law.

Fight against water bandits and bandits.

After the issuance of these measures, they were implemented immediately, and they were no longer as before, and they were still half-covered with a pipa.

Looking at this 100,000-word charter, Zhu Gaochi was obviously cautious. He pondered for a long time, and there were many details in it, which he had seen countless times, and had pondered for a long, long time.

But now, when he mentions the Zhu pen, he still feels extremely heavy.

It is said that to cure troubled times, fierce medicine is needed.

But now that the world is peaceful, it does not have to be thoroughly implemented, even if it is now, it is enough to rule the world.

And directly under such a fierce drug, to a certain extent, there are actually many risks.

This almost directly broke the inertia of many millennia, and completely cut off the livelihood of many groups that relied on the inertia of the past.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhu Gaochi finally drew a circle on this charter.

He immediately handed it over to the eunuch who was waiting on the side, and ordered: "Send it to the celebrant priest." ”

The edict was issued, and immediately began to be distributed throughout the world through the Post Office, and the newspaper began to be published day after day.

The edict was read in all ministries.

In response to this edict there were many decrees, which were distributed to the ministries.

As for the criticism and rumors, Zhu Gaochi didn't pay attention to them, and he didn't even bother to let Jinyiwei investigate.

Only the factory guards were ordered to send out cavalry in case of accidents.

Obviously, the effect of such a change is unprecedented.

At least in the capital, it was like a pond where a meteorite suddenly fell down, and for a while, it stirred up a thousand waves.

In the capital, there were people wailing.

But Zhu Gaochi ignored it.

He didn't even go to see Hanlin and Yushi at all, but only summoned a few scholars and the scholars of various ministries to discuss the matter, and after finalizing one thing, he directly taught them to follow it.

If it weren't for the necessary recital, he wouldn't bother to look at it.

Instead, they issued edicts one by one, which was very arbitrary.

But even so, there are still a lot of things that come to his ears.

The scholar of Wenyuange University said that the prefect of Taiyuan, Shanxi Province, refused to accept the officials assigned by the imperial court, but led the local officials to write a letter with tears, asking the prince to speak widely...... He also ordered the county envoys of the subordinate counties not to hand over county affairs with the officials sent by the imperial court.

Xie Jin's performance was announced, and he looked up at Zhu Gaochi.

Zhu Gaochi only walked a few steps with his hands behind his back, he now looked more and more like Zhu Di, especially when he was thinking, he was pacing carelessly, his eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and his face was solemn.

Zhu Gaochi finally stood down at this time and said, "This prefect is called Chen Zhong." ”

"Yes."

"Bengu has a slight impression of him."

Hu Guangdao: "This person is a good official, and his official reputation is good, that is, ...... Somewhat pedantic. ”

Zhu Gaochi said: "This palace has also heard of his reputation......

After a pause, Zhu Gaochi continued: "Order the Jinyi guard to drive the sticker, lock it." ”

He said lightly.

Several scholars were startled, looking at each other one by one, they all saw surprise in each other's eyes, obviously did not expect that it would be so serious.

So, Hu Guang reminded: "His Royal Highness the Prince, he may just be confused for a while, and he only needs to issue an edict to apply for ......."

Zhu Gaochi said lightly: "The situation in Taiyuan Mansion, this palace knows that in the past few years, it has been suffering from disasters, this person's official reputation is really good, although the military and civilians are hungry, there are not so many people who starve to death, at least it is better than the ten rooms and nine empty at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, and now it is only 17,800 starvation a year, but it has not reached the point of bleeding and drifting......

After a pause, he continued: "That's why he has a good reputation, and many soldiers and civilians praise him as a blue sky." I'm afraid that's why he dares to do this. ”

Hu Guang said with little confidence: "Yes, yes, this person is indeed ...... At last...... It's kind of ......."

Zhu Gaochi said: "Is it a blue sky? ”

"This ......"

Zhu Gaochi said: "Qingtian still starves to death of 10,000 people every year, the people are not clothed, people have vegetables, at such a point, the people still have to praise him, it can be seen that the evil of the old system has reached what extent." And how mad are the people who defend this old system. The affairs of the world are bad for these so-called 'gentlemen', and this palace is counting on fewer such blue skies and more good people who govern the world. Now he is disrespecting the edict, this is a heinous crime......"

Zhu Gaochi said, smiled coldly, and continued expressionlessly: "Not only do you want to lock up this Chen Zhong, but also his family." The other officials of the prefecture and county who obeyed him also did not stay, and all of them were sent to prison for punishment. What this palace wants to punish today is these blue heavens. ”

Zhu Gaochi's words were not harsh, but they were cold.

So much so that even Xie Jin and others began to feel that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was becoming more and more incomprehensible.

The prince who used to be gentle and courteous seems to be long gone.

"Your Highness." Xie Jin frowned, as if he felt that the punishment was still a bit heavy, so he said: "I'm just afraid that in this case, the military and civilians of Taiyuan Mansion will ......."

Zhu Gaochi didn't let him continue, and interrupted: "The soldiers and civilians of Taiyuan Mansion, what they think and think today is not something that this palace has to worry about now. What this palace has to worry about is how to teach the military and civilians of Taiyuan Mansion when they will be able to fill their stomachs and buy one or two new clothes a year. ”

Zhu Gaochi glanced at everyone before continuing: "You, don't always use etiquette and righteousness to satisfy the military and civilians, you might as well think about how to feed them and teach them to dress warmly." Ignoring starvation, ignoring reality, but only reciting the so-called honor and morality, this palace wants to know, people are dead, what is the use of these? ”

Zhu Gaochi said the back, with obvious mockery in his words.

Xie Jin listened and hurriedly said, "The minister understands." ”

Zhu Gaochi put away the coldness on his face, and then said: "When this Chen Zhong is escorted into Beijing, he will immediately be punished for the crime of disrespect, and the rest of the people should not be sentenced lightly." If there is any such case, it will be dealt with in accordance with this precedent. ”

"Yes."

Zhu Gaochi immediately said: "Next, anyone who violates the yang and the yin, and who ignores the edict, will all be severely punished, so be it." ”

The bachelors present didn't know whether they were shocked by Zhu Gaochi's decision today, or whether they agreed with Zhu Gaochi's decision from the bottom of their hearts, and they were almost silent at this time.

Zhu Gaochi glanced at Zhang Anshi and said, "Zhang Qing seems to have something to say?" ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Your Royal Highness, what the minister wants to play is not the matter of Taiyuan Mansion, but the impeachment of the supervising imperial history king Wen Hong......"

When Zhu Gaochi heard the impeachment, he subconsciously frowned.

Then he said: "What to impeach, who to impeach?" ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Impeachment should be ...... Tianfu"

Zhu Gaochi said: "What's wrong with Ying Tianfu?" ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Regarding the construction of the city gate, the construction of the city gate is greatly conducive to the expansion of the capital, especially on the side of Yulinwei in the west of the city, a large number of craftsmen and laborers need to enter and exit every day, and the result is ...... Ying Tianfu turned a blind eye to this, and until now, he has not come up with a charter to open the city gate! ”

After a pause, Zhang Anshi continued eloquently: "Such perfunctory, ignoring the people's livelihood, is really a crime that deserves death, so this Wang Yushi hopes that the imperial court will apply for the Heavenly Mansion and immediately improve it, he has visited several sections of the city wall close to Yulinwei, and also put forward some suggestions about the new city gate...... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is invited to take a look. ”

Zhu Gaochi: "......"
