Chapter 415: Zhu Jianji: Lao Tzu is ready to lift the table!
When Mount Tai sealed Zen, Emperor Zhu Qiyu of the Ming Dynasty Jingtai clearly said that he wanted to take the Zen position in the sacrifice of astronomy, and the military officials in the world were not surprised, and even took it for granted.
After sealing the Zen, Zhu Qiyu hurriedly rushed back to Gyeonggi to prepare for the abdication.
As a result, his successor Zhu Jianji took the East Palace maid to tour the mountains and rivers, as if it was not him who was about to ascend the throne, not to mention, in this sparsely populated era, Zhu Jianji's tour of the mountains and rivers was very happy.
】
I tried to be on a cliff overlooking the earth in a mountain, and Lu Huan pushed the window to look at the moon.
I tried to swing the oars with Maynur in a boat in the middle of a rippling lake.
I tried to sit in the blue sky with the princess white carp in a piece of dry grass where the wind blows grass and sees cattle and sheep.
Between heaven and earth, the scenery is beautiful.
Stimulation is real stimulation.
However, Zhu Jianji was not really obscene enough to only care about happiness, and when he went all the way north to Gyeonggi, while enjoying himself, he also went deep into the people to understand the grassroots situation.
It was found that the land annexation was still a bit serious.
If it weren't for the opening of the sea, the industrialization that had been promoted by itself would have provided some jobs for the people, but I am afraid that the people of the Ming Dynasty would also be very desolate.
It is also a prosperous place from Shandong to Gyeonggi.
However, because of the opening of the sea and the promotion of industrialization, some contradictions in land annexation have been alleviated.
However, this contradiction does not exist because it has been alleviated.
Zhu Jianji believes that it still needs to be solved.
After all, land has been the most important resource since ancient times, and when a country's land is in the hands of the landlord class, no matter how rich the country is, it is only the wealth of the superstructure.
The life of the people will not be easy.
Even the richest of the Great Song Dynasty is the same.
There are many methods and attempts to solve land annexation in history, such as: the uniform land system implemented from the Northern Wei Dynasty to the early Tang Dynasty, the square field uniform tax method of Wang Anshi in the Song Dynasty, a whip law drafted by Zhang Juzheng in the Ming Dynasty, and the system of stalling people into mu during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty.
The equalization system was a system of distributing land according to population from the Northern Wei Dynasty to the early Tang Dynasty, in which part of the land was owned by the government after a certain number of years of cultivation, and part of the land was returned to the government after his death.
The implementation of the equalization system affirmed the ownership and possession of land, helped the dependent peasants to get rid of the control of the powerful clans and transform them into state households, greatly increased the number of small self-cultivated peasants under the control of the government, ensured the source of servitude, and strengthened the absolutist centralized system.
The main content of the Fangtian implemented by Wang Anshi in the Song Dynasty is: to check and measure the cultivated land in various states and counties, take 1,000 steps on the four sides of the southeast, northwest and northwest as 1 square (equivalent to 10,000 mu at that time), verify the number of land occupied by each household, and then divide it into five classes according to the topography and soil quality conditions (changed to ten classes in the following year) to compile cadastral and various books, and determine the tax amount per mu in each place.
Although the implementation of Fangtian can increase the source of taxation and reduce the burden on the peasants, it is only implemented in a few areas, and Yuanfeng was basically abolished in the eighth year because it was difficult to clear the law, there were many disadvantages, and the powerful landlords strongly opposed it.
With the development of private ownership of land in the Ming Dynasty, land was increasingly capitalized, and land annexation was gradually intensified.
The main method is to clear the land, expand the area of collection, unify the levy, limit the harshness, and stabilize the tax payment. At the same time, the collection of silver per mu will be calculated, and the official will be resolved, so that the collection method will be more complete.
The Qing Dynasty had two land reforms, one was to change the land and return it to the stream, which was aimed at Tusi.
There is also a spread into the acre.
The apportionment of land to mu has reduced the burden on landless and landless peasants, helped to alleviate social contradictions, unleashed social vitality, and promoted the development of production.
However, no matter what land reform method is, there will be a direct contradiction with the landlord class, which is actually the ruling class in the feudal era, and the imperial power is only the spokesman of the landlord class.
Zhu Jianji, as the spokesperson, has to consider the consequences if he wants to overturn this table.
But agrarian reform is also necessary.
Zhu Jianji has two choices, one whip method and paving into the mu.
He didn't want to either.
His ideal state of land should be like the land reform of the twentieth century, after which the land would be owned by the peasants and could not be transferred, so that the cultivators would have their land.
But such words - the resistance is unimaginable.
Because this means that the landlord stratum will disappear completely, and this is the fundamental interest, once it is implemented, it is not possible to announce it today, and no one will attend tomorrow's court meeting.
Most of the officials of the Ming Dynasty belonged to the landlord class.
No matter how strong Zhu Jianji is, he has to consider this consequence.
Therefore, after traveling all the way to Gyeonggi, Zhu Jianji decided to temporarily move the land, continue to promote industrialization, and make industry a more important income and wealth for the landlord class, and then implement land reform.
In this way, the contradiction between the imperial power and the landlord class will be much smaller.
But after all, this matter is related to the future of the country, and its importance is no less than Dongfeng firearms, after Zhu Jianji returned to the East Palace, he invited Zhu Qiyu to the Wenhua Palace, and summoned Jiuqing, said what he had seen and heard along the way, and then said: "In fact, the change of dynasties in the past dynasties is not only the reason for the corruption of the government and the incompetence of the emperor, Lone believes that the biggest reason is that in the later period of the past dynasties, land annexation has led to the intensification of social contradictions, and Lone even believes that land annexation is the real reason for the change of dynasty." ”
Zhu Qiyu didn't squeak.
He was a little worried, looking at his son's posture, was he preparing to take action on the issue of land annexation?
That's amazing!
If it doesn't work, it will be a great social upheaval, and Jingtai Zhongxing, which he and his son have built, may even be wasted, but Zhu Qiyu absolutely supports his son's affairs.
As for whether it will work out or not......
Let's take a look at the attitude of the Jiuqing first.
Yu Qian bowed slightly, "Your Highness's words are not unreasonable, Your Highness's thoughts are also understood, regardless of the seriousness of the matter, please don't be in a hurry, and think slowly about the long term." ”
Hang Min nodded, "The minister seconded the proposal!" ”
These two people support any decision made by Zhu Jianji, and Yu Qian is not considered a landlord.
The relatives of the Hang family are also considered to be the landlord class, but they are also Zhu Jianji's relatives, even if the land reform shakes their interests, they can make up for it elsewhere in the future.
And the rest of Jiuqing, even including Zhang Peng, the emperor of the Imperial Procuratorate, were a little uneasy.
They actually don't know much about Zhu Jianji, the prince of the Ming Dynasty.
Because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is an extremely contradictory person.
But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that the land issue, so after he ascends the throne, will he definitely move this cake, and if he moves this cake, how can the interests of the family behind them be guaranteed?
In this case, do you want His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to ascend the throne safely?
Jiuqing had a little Jiujiu in their hearts.
Although Zhu Qiyu is preparing for the Zen throne, the Jiuqing actually have the ability to influence and interfere with this matter, if the new emperor has irreconcilable contradictions with them, then Zhu Jianji will definitely not be able to sit on the throne if he does not have the corresponding ability.
Zhu Jianji saw the reactions of the other Jiuqing, and vaguely guessed in his heart.
But if he dares to put it forward, he is not afraid to face this contradiction head-on.
It's just that you have to have a strategy.
Hearing this, he smiled and said: "Lone is just touching, and today's summoning of you is about the year name." ”
If you want to ascend the throne, you have to choose a good era name.
