Zhu Yijun lowered this to the cabinet.

He wanted to see the reaction of the rest of the cabinet.

Nowadays, the composition of the cabinet has become Shen Shixing's first assistant, Wang Xijue's second assistant, Shen Li's third assistant, Zheng Luo, Yu Shenxing's fourth and fifth assistants.

And in charge of internal affairs is the second assistant Wang Xijue.

Wang Xijue, the second assistant of the cabinet, frowned when he saw this, walked to Shen Shixing's straight room and said to Shen Shixing:

"Shen Yin County is cautious, he doesn't dare to change the system of the inner court, he just wants to make up for the lack of people in the court palace in the name of co-opting concubines, so although the Son of Heaven and the nobles of the harem are satisfied, but I don't know how many good girls have been locked in the deep palace all their lives for a false name, this is benevolent?"

After listening to it, Shen Shixing took the recital, put on the tortoiseshell, and looked at it intently.

Then, Shen Shixing smiled and said, "The implementation of the new rite has reached the time to reform the system around His Majesty, how can it be careless? It's nothing to wronged you and me, and if you wronged Your Majesty and the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces, you naturally have to be cautious! ”

"Therefore, Shen Yinxian's proposal is no problem, it should be approved, as for the problem of many palace people being locked in the deep palace after being promoted to nobles, there will be a way to solve it."

Shen Shixing then replied.

Wang Xijue asked: "How to solve it?" ”

Shen Shixing said: "It takes time, and a sore is only the most suitable time to deal with it when it is about to rot and suppurate." ”

Wang Xijue thought that when the large number of slaves and maids in his family decreased, the clansmen had to agree to buy a large number of Japanese slaves and Gaoli slaves, and it was also when it was indeed more and more expensive to buy Han people, so he nodded and said: "I just don't know when it will be." ”

Because Shen Shixing agreed, when Zhu Yijun saw the ink copy of this song again, he saw that the proposed content of the ticket was approved for execution.

Zhu Yijun summoned Shen Shixing for this reason.

In the warm room with bright and clean windows, the monarch and the ministers sat and stood together, the sunlight was waving on the robes of the two, and Zhu Yijun finally opened his mouth first.

"Do you know the drawbacks?"

"I can increase the number of palace people by increasing the position of the harem all the time, but as there are more and more nobles in the harem, there will be more and more palace people needed, and more and more palace people need to be selected, so I need to increase more and more positions in the harem, and if this continues, won't my concubines be tens of thousands?"

"And shouldn't the power of the relatives far surpass the clan nobles and even the nobles?"

After Zhu Yijun said this, he looked at Shen Shixing.

He has known Shen Shixing for nineteen years, and they are familiar with each other.

Therefore, Zhu Yijun doesn't think that Shen Shixing will not know that what he wants to see is a new inner court system, instead of deceiving women from all over the world to enter the palace again and again by increasing the position of the harem.

It's like only adding 36 positions, but recruiting thousands of women who are just the right age to enter the palace as interns for three years, and in the end, most women will waste three years of youth.

But Shen Shixing chose to be conservative like Shen Zheng, and would rather sacrifice the three years of youth of thousands of girls than plan to build a new system.

This made Zhu Yijun, who came from later generations and was influenced by the idea that if something was wrong, he would reform and dare to innovate, and he was very unimpressed, and he was also very surprised.

He thought that Shen Shixing, a minister who knew him, would try his best to come up with a new policy.

That's why Zhu Yijun asked Shen Shixing like this.

Shen Shixing was very calm and composed, as if he expected the emperor to be disappointed, and his face said without waves: "Your Majesty, the minister does not know this drawback, but the minister thinks that although the reform should not be afraid of change, it should not be rushed." ”

"If you are too anxious, it is easy to make people dare not change, and over the years, this dynasty has vigorously changed a lot of systems, and the world has the tendency of cooking oil with fire."

"Up and down, everyone also proposes to restructure, against the old and the new, but the restructuring has always been a knife with pros and cons, once it is swung down, it is to see blood, but if you swing it too quickly, you are afraid of cutting yourself, and even the pain is unbearable, and you will be afraid of restructuring in the future."

"Especially this restructuring involves the inner court, the safety of His Majesty, once there is a slight carelessness, except for a big mistake, I am afraid that no king will dare to reform the system in the future, and even deny the previous reforms."

"Your Majesty's meaning, the minister also understands!"

"It's nothing more than wanting to increase the position of the concubine, so that the good women who serve His Majesty and the nobles of the harem have the opportunity to be officials, and they will also enjoy glory and wealth."

"However, Your Majesty, if the wisdom of the people is not opened today, even many seven-foot men still don't know how to behave in the world, and they don't know how to be in awe when they get their will, not to mention most women who are only locked in empty boudoirs?"

"Their original education is to be attached to men, to conquer men, and suddenly let them be officials, they will only love to form parties more than men, and even let them take power again, and they are more likely to be used by villains as chess pieces, so it is better to let them continue to do only the things of inner house assistance before most of the women of this tribe are knowledgeable, wise, and know that they take the world as their own responsibility and do not rely on men."

Shen Shixing seriously expressed his views at this time.

After hearing this, Zhu Yijun thought of his experience in the afterlife, and then nodded very cooperatively.

But Zhu Yijun is not anyone, he understands Shen Shixing, unless Shen Shixing has his own purpose and motive, he will not reason with others.

Even if this person is the emperor.

As long as his interests are not involved, Shen Shixing can say less and say less, and at most he just thinks about how to deal with the aftermath.

Unlike Zhang Juzheng, even if it doesn't involve his own interests, it only concerns the interests of the other party, and whether the other party can grow and increase his wisdom, as long as the other party is someone he cares about, he has to educate him.

Therefore, Zhu Yijun also nodded and muttered for a while, and then stared at Shen Shixing, who was not so good as a teacher, and said:

"Does the master also think that women are talented in conquering men, and the Son of Heaven is naturally difficult to parry as a man, as the saying goes, red faces are bad water, and if she has a hundred and thousands of red faces, then they can check and balance each other, and I will be able to parry all kinds of flattery with ease?"

Shen Shixing raised his eyes and glanced at Zhu Yijun, and then solemnly bowed his hand: "Your Majesty Shengming!" ”

"I understand what you mean, it's nothing more than that the people's wisdom has not yet opened, and even many men are still insensitive, servile, and too deeply poisoned by the old rites, not to mention the people in the boudoir, Zhong Lingyu is rare after all."

Zhu Yijun tapped the imperial case as he spoke, and looked at Shen Shixing:

"This time it's approved, after selecting people to enter the palace in the name of this, we will focus on using the new rite education, and then see if there is anything that can be used."

"Anyway, I have tried to tap the strengths of the nobles in the harem, so that they can also have their own careers, and I have also trained a group of palace people with a new education, and there will be no shortage of people who will train them after being selected into the harem in the future."

Shen Shixing said yes.

Then, Zhu Yijun said: "I heard that the slave trade has been booming recently, but is there such a thing? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, yes, because there are few good families in my country who do not want to be slaves, there are more people to buy from Korea and Japan, and now the cabinet is preparing to ask the court whether to allow this trade to exist."

"It has always been forbidden to buy and sell people only if parents buy and sell their children, and it is strictly forbidden to sell non-biological children to human teeth, after all, parents selling their children can be regarded as filial piety in human ethics, that is, children sacrifice for their parents, and human teeth are purely for profit, which is not allowed."

"Therefore, this kind of behavior is illegal, and there have been governors who have killed a number of Dongyi slaves who sold Dongyi slaves, and even a big case has occurred, just because these teeth have the support of Haoyou, and there is a direct bloody conflict with the standard camp of the governor, but even if there is a strict prohibition by the governor, it has been repeatedly banned, and some governors have even been bought by Haoyou and took the initiative to let go of this ban, and acquiesced that these Dongyi slaves were trafficked into the country."

At present, Kedao is also arguing fiercely about this matter, and some think that the governor who strictly prohibits slave smuggling is a loyal and upright minister, and is not afraid of local tyrants; However, the governors who ignore the smuggling of slaves and even connive at their active participation are traitors who hide private interests and act in cahoots with local tyrants, and should be dealt with strictly. ”

"The Cabinet Planning Department has formulated a response policy, thinking that it is better to block than to slacken, since the imperial court has implemented the new rites, it is better to treat it according to the new rites, and those who educate their children are also parents, and the people of their own nationality with a high degree of kingization should be the parents of Hu Yi with a low degree of kingization, so the people of their own nationality buy and sell Huyi, and it is not against etiquette, and the law is to be changed to allow the people of their own nationality to buy and sell Huyi."

Shen Shi Xing returned.

Zhu Yijun shook his head after hearing this: "It's hard for you to think of such a reason, the people of the Ming Dynasty should indeed be the parents of other barbarian people!" ”

"However, there is a difference in the degree of kingization among the barbarians in the world, and no one can enter Middle-earth as the children of the people of Middle-earth, so only the Mongolian, Jurchen, Korean and religious areas with a high degree of kingization are allowed to enter Middle-earth and be bought and sold."

Shen Shixing said yes, and said: "The Cabinet Planning Department also means this, those with the same text and color will naturally give priority to the people, and then those with the same color and different cultures, and those with different colors and different cultures are not allowed to enter Middle Earth for the time being." ”

"This reconquest of Luzon has liberated many of the enslaved nationals, and we must preach more about luring and forcibly taking them to Luzon! Those who want to go home will help them go home, so that the people of the country who want to go to sea will only believe in the migration organized by the government. ”

"In addition, those who are found to have lured and forcibly taken their own soldiers and people to the sea as slaves must be dealt with strictly, and if one family is found, it will be forbidden to take the examination for three generations, and the master and accomplice will be beheaded!"

"Although I know that this phenomenon will continue to be banned, there will always be bold people who would rather enslave their own people to produce more wealth and goods for themselves in pursuit of greater interests, rather than temper uncivilized barbarians, this kind of people who do not treat their compatriots well and do not talk about compatriot friendship will naturally not love the country and their own people, and even will not have a benevolent heart for their relatives and friends, it can be said that the most self-interested person in the world, if you can kill one more, there will be one less such person!"

Zhu Yijun went on to talk about the Han people being lured and taken captive overseas to be enslaved by the local Chinese natives.

He knew that the human environment of this land determined that non-governmental organizations could not undertake the task of expanding foreign migration.

Because the most valuable thing about this land is not gold, silver and copper mines, but human mines!

That is, a large number of Han people with their own advanced farming and weaving technology, so the non-governmental organizations that mainly pursue their own interests, they organize foreign immigration and expansion, which will only turn the Han people into slaves in the new expansion areas, and even collude with local natives or colonists to enslave the Han people, so as to achieve the purpose of maximizing the value of exploitation.

The imperial court is different, although the expansion of foreign immigration is also for the sake of interests, but it will consider the long-term interests of the ruler, that is, the interests of the country and the nation, and will directly use the power of the state for the long-term interests of the whole country and the nation, and forcibly update and upgrade the local civilization, so as to achieve the purpose of maximizing the value of exploitation.

Such as the current Luzon.

Zhu Yijun and his ruling ministers have taken advantage of the Xiyi massacre of the Chinese, killed the Xiyi natives in Luzon, and also used this to fatten the fields, and then prepared to emigrate over on a large scale to reclaim the land and open mines, whether it is the agricultural tax or the mineral income obtained, it is greater than the value of a few powerful people by colluding with the Xiyi natives to squeeze some Han people.

And there is no need for the Ming court to collude with Xiyi and the local natives, and then immigrate to the past as slaves, and then share a part of the benefits to Xiyi and the local natives.

With the national strength of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty can do it completely on its own, and by the way, because it does not have to be taken away by the Xiyi colonizers and local chieftains, it can reduce the degree of exploitation of the Han people who immigrated to the past, and even let a part of the benefits be given to the domestic people, so as to ensure the stability of the whole country.

After all, only the more stable the country is, the larger the national power can be organized.

Only local tyrants will need to cooperate with Xiyi and Tu chieftains when expanding their overseas interests because of their limited strength.

After Zhu Yijun said this, Shen Shixing repeatedly said that he obeyed the order, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that you can continue to issue an edict to strictly prohibit smuggling and trafficking in the population of your own clan. ”

"Directly condemned to the crime of treason and treason with the enemy, those who have no friendship with compatriots are like having no country and no race! Therefore, the main and accomplices are all Ling Chi, and the nine clans are connected! And there are foreign participants, and they declare war with the emperor, and the emperor should be educated! ”

Zhu Yijun replied.

Shen Shixing said yes, and echoed: "In this way, the border ministers have reason to ask for a decree to expand the border." ”

……

Dengzhou Hot Spring Town, Shandong.

Because the emperor decreed that the imperial court would provide money and manpower to assist, and were willing to return to their hometowns, the Han people who were lured into exile and slaved in Luzon returned to their hometowns.

Therefore, when he was fifty years old, villager Ma Dongliang finally returned to his hometown - Hot Spring Town, which had been absent for more than 20 years.

It's just that when Ma Dongliang arrived at the entrance of the town, he didn't dare to enter, because he suddenly felt that this town was so unfamiliar, not to mention that the road was wide, the key was that there were a lot of pavilions and pavilions, green trees and flowers were also a lot more lush, there were a lot more people, the clothes were also a lot more gorgeous, and the carriage was a lot more four-wheeled.

"Master Bing, this doesn't seem to be a hot spring town, right?"

Ma Dongliang had to ask Zhang Yuan, the soldier who sent him back.

Zhang Yuan replied: "Why is this not, I am also from Hot Spring Town, and I also know about the Ma family, your child has already been promoted to the people, and now he has gone to Dongpeng as an official, come with me, I will take you home." ”

"Hey!"

Ma Dongliang agreed, but his eyes were still shining, and he followed this chapter to the town with an uncontrollable smile.

Soon, Ma Dongliang saw the old archway of the town gate, and after seeing the three big words "Hot Spring Town", he couldn't close his mouth excitedly, and suddenly burst into tears, stroking the stone pillar:

"Sure enough, it's the hot spring town of my dreams! I used to pee here secretly when I was a kid. ”

"Look at the flagpole again."

"It was your son Chengwu who was filial piety in the examination, and the town set it up for him."

Zhang Yuan pulled him to a flagpole next to the archway at this time.
