Chapter 144: I'd rather offend the emperor
In addition, Emperor Zhu used Confucius to attack them at every turn, and used his spear to attack his shield, which he used perfectly.
To say that he is coarse and fine, it is simply too much, too to underestimate him, but Emperor Zhu actually has great wisdom.
Moreover, the passage that Liu Bowen just stood up to say seemed to be preventing the emperor from implementing the public land system, but in fact, he was deliberately asking Emperor Zhu to arrest his sentence 'Although the Jingtian Holy King has been abolished for a long time'.
He also said that the reason why the public land system could not be implemented was because the world had just settled down and the people had just joined the new dynasty. This sentence can also be used by Zhu Yuanzhang.
also said that although Yao Shun is resurrected, and there is no hundred years, Fu can do it, and it can also be used by the emperor.
On the surface, it seems that he is helping the ministers of cultural relics, but in fact, it is Zhu Yuanzhang's divine assistance.
He has defected.
His ass was crooked to the Emperor's side.
Although the two had not discussed it before, this cooperation in the court was a heart-wrenching blow.
And only Liu Bowen can cooperate with him, because he is not educated, and he really doesn't know Ou Bo's advice to admonish Wang Mang. How miscellaneous you have to read this book to know the allusions!
"Wang Mang's new dynasty can't be implemented, and the Ming Dynasty will follow the old path of the new dynasty?" Sure enough, I only heard Zhu Yuanzhang say, "The new dynasty is that the people have just joined a usurped court, and I, the Ming Dynasty, overthrew Hu Yuan, and the people are united." ”
"The new dynasty implemented the public land system, although Yao Shun was revived, Fu Neng can also do it. We just have to rise to the challenge and do something that Yao Shun can't do. ”
"The new dynasty needs a hundred years, and our Ming Dynasty only needs one year."
"Your Majesty's public land system, the old minister thinks, maybe it can be tried out......" At this moment, Lu Chang stood up and said. Liu Bowen had obviously 'defected' just now and stood on the emperor's side.
As a result, the crowd began to follow the 'mutiny'.
With the first, it is easy to have the second, the third.
"If Your Majesty can really implement the public land system successfully, it will be a merit that will directly catch up with Yao Shun." Gao Qi said.
The other cultural relics did not speak, nor did they sing praises to the emperor, because their private fields were about to become public land, and they were not in the mood to pat the emperor's ass.
Gao Qi and several other great Confucians have less private land, and their private land is much more.
At the same time, not patting the emperor's sycophants is also showing their attitude and using silence to show resistance.
Emperor Zhu can't even kill anyone who doesn't give him a sycophant.
When everyone is patting someone on the back, silence becomes heresy and is remembered. When everyone is intoxicated, the sober person becomes a heretic.
But fortunately, there are not many people who pat the emperor's ass, only a few of them, and the silent ones account for the vast majority.
They are not afraid of being remembered by Emperor Zhu, and the law does not blame the public.
"What we are implementing is not a public land system, but the land is owned by the imperial court." Zhu Yuanzhang corrected.
Isn't it the same? The ministers said in their hearts, but they just changed their names.
The court, again silent.
……
"The land you currently own still belongs to you, and it will not be owned by the imperial court for the time being." Seeing that the ministers stopped talking, after a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, "However, in addition to your existing land, the land reclaimed in the future belongs to the imperial court, and the imperial court will make a unified overall plan and distribution, and no one is allowed to buy or sell privately." ”
Zhu Yuanzhang still used his glove road, first beating people with a stick, and then giving people a sweet date.
Kill the first person to stand up against him, and then talk about his second move. It makes people feel that the person died a little unjustly just now, in fact, he doesn't need to be in such a hurry to stand up and look for death, if only he could calm down and take a look down.
Listen more, watch more, think more about everything, and don't jump to conclusions so early.
When the ministers heard this, they breathed a sigh of relief.
It is a great thing that the emperor will not touch their existing land.
However, they were not allowed to buy and sell land in the future, which was also extremely detrimental to them. Because they were not allowed to buy and sell land, they could not grow. Land has always been the most important asset of the feudal aristocracy.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks this matter is not acceptable!" At this moment, Cao Liangcai, a member of the Zhongshu Provincial Committee, stood up and said.
He is just a member of the Zhongshu Provincial Wailang Fourth Rank Official, and it stands to reason that he should not come out at this time. Everyone knows that standing up against the emperor in such a situation is tantamount to giving away someone's head.
However, he had to stand up, and just now, Hu Weiyong gave him a look.
Seeing the emperor's determination to implement this measure, those important ministers, or all the courtiers, must know that Mingzhe will not be a first-class bird. But what should the important ministers do if they want to speak out at this time?
They will push out the little people in their team and let them be cannon fodder to speak on their behalf.
A look, or a sneaky kick is all it takes.
That look or kick is someone else's talisman.
……
"We won't take back your land, it's just that it's not allowed to be bought and sold, you still think it's impossible?" Zhu Yuanzhang laughed angrily.
"Your Majesty, allowing private buyers and sellers of land is a precedent of previous dynasties, and it is not appropriate for the emperor to change it at will." Cao Liangcai stiffened his head and said, "And the imperial courts of the past dynasties rewarded the ministers, and they also rewarded them with land......"
He couldn't say anything convincing for it.
"The imperial courts of all dynasties basically rewarded the land, so we will not reward them in the future." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "And we have to add this article to the Emperor's ancestral training, and the future emperors are not allowed to reward anyone with land." ”
"Cao Liangcai, you are so protective of allowing land to be bought and sold, do you want to buy a lot of land yourself?"
"The more you buy, the more you buy, and in the end you buy thousands of acres and tens of thousands of acres of land, are we going to give you a king?"
"Come on, drag them out, confiscate their land, and demote them to commoners!"
"The emperor is gracious, the emperor is open!" When Cao Liangcai heard this, he symbolically called out a few words of the emperor's kindness. In his heart, he was relieved that the emperor did not kill him! It's just a dismissal of his officials.
He belonged to the Huaixi clique, and Li Shanchang and Hu Weiyong were the leaders of the Huaixi party.
It is better to offend the emperor than to offend the party leader!
If he had been killed just now for offending the emperor, Li Shanchang and Hu Weiyong would have taken credit for his 'obedience', and would definitely have brought his descendants or his clansmen - the leader of the group would not be able to convince the public if the rewards and punishments were unclear.
But if he hadn't stood up just now, the Huaixi Party would not let him go. If the light one is dismissed, no one will keep a disobedient subordinate. At worst, they will be killed, or their entire family will be wiped out.
