Years later, Xie Jin, the first assistant university scholar who took charge of the cabinet, will still remember the early dynasty when his predecessor was deposed...... Xu Jingchang appeared outside the noon gate, he greeted a few Shangshu, and deliberately went to Jian Yi, and said in a low voice: "I heard that this time in Jingcha, there will be Jiuqing deposed, it won't be me, right?" ”

"Absolutely not!" Jian Yi categorically denied it, and Xu Jingchang fully confirmed that he was going to say goodbye to the position of the political envoy.

After all, only what is denied is true.

Xu Jingchang didn't say much next, he just wanted to look at these people silently, how to get rid of himself...... It's also a good learning opportunity.

After the ministers walked into the Fengtian Hall and worshiped the Son of Heaven, Zhu Di's eyes inspected the hundred officials, and then said: "At the beginning of the year, I received the inscriptions of your various yamen, and they all said their thoughts for this year. ”

Zhu Di looked around, and then stared at Xia Yuanji,

"The head of the household is still in charge, and he is in charge of Daming's money bag, how is my current income and expenditure? Tell me how much you can have in balance. ”

Xia Yuanji had already prepared, he stepped forward and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, for most of the past half a year, the whole household has been exhausted, and I dare not slack off. Last year, His Majesty exempted the taxes of the states and counties that suffered from military disasters, and he also reduced his grace several times and exempted the disaster areas from servitude. It stands to reason that the annual membership of the household department has dropped a lot. However, since the beginning of the year, the household department has arranged for officials to inspect various places, mainly to collect the money and grain accumulated over the years. Among them, Jiangxi Province alone has overcollected 1.2 million stone in arrears, which has been handed over to the state treasury in full. ”

Zhu Di was in a good mood and said with a smile: "Jiangxi Tianfu has always been difficult to solve, and it is hard to have such results." ”

was praised by the Son of Heaven, and Xia Yuanji was also very pleased.

It is ashamed to say that Xu Jingchang can think of using Jiangxi officials to go to Susongchang Town to be the prefect, so he can naturally arrange officials from Suzhou and other places to go to Jiangxi to collect debts.

Both of these places are feng shui treasures with many talents.

The Jiangxi scholars dominated the first half of the Ming Dynasty, while the Jiangnan scholars dominated the second half.

Everyone knows that Xu Jie replaced Yan Song, which is not only the victory of the Xu Party, but also the victory of Jiangsu and Zhejiang...... Since then, except for Liu Yixian, who was born in Jiangxi, who briefly served as the first assistant for a year, no one from Jiangxi has served as the first assistant.

On the contrary, Nanzhili, Zhejiang, and Fujian, have produced many talents and have controlled the cabinet for a long time.

The reason why Yan Ge Lao became the head of the traitorous ministers of the Ming Dynasty is also related to the lack of strength of the villagers.

If more Jiangxi people control the cabinet, they will definitely have to say something good for Yan Gelao.

Even if he didn't say good things to Yan Song, he would definitely scold Xu Ge Lao.

After Xia Yuanji learned this little trick, he decisively arranged for officials from Nanzhili and Zhejiang to go to Jiangxi to clear up the arrears.

As a result, Yang Shiqi, Hu Guang, Jin Youzi and others desperately tossed Su Songchangzhen, and the gang released by Xia Yuanji played with their lives to urge Jiangxi.

As a result, Jiangxi Province took an extra 1.2 million stone of grain.

Although compared with the arrears of previous years, it is less than one-third.

But being able to pluck feathers on an iron rooster is also a great feat and deserves to be written about.

When it comes to Jiangxi's clean-up of arrears, it is natural to talk about the tax reform of the four prefectures in Susongchang Town, especially the return of fire consumption to the public.

It's a great offense.

When it was first proposed, Xu Jingchang was blessed to the soul and threw it to the four cabinet scholars...... Yang Rong and the others are simply grateful to Xu Jingchang's eight-generation ancestors!

When they arrived at the place, they really understood what swords and swords are, and what is life and death!

In the court, even if it is Xu Jingchang, if he wants to trap people, he has to find a proper name, but when he arrives at the place, it is different.

When Yang Rong first met the officials in Suzhou, they got a Kunshan opera troupe, and hired the most famous singer in Yangzhou, worth as much as 50,000 taels, to sing for Yang Rong in person.

You must know that this is the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, not the later generations when a large amount of silver flowed in, ordinary transactions are forbidden to use silver, but a prostitute dares to use silver to mark the price, and it is clear that it is prepared by a dignitary.

Yang Rong also had to admit that he was really tempted.

What is the imperial court, what is the auxiliary country governing the people...... Where is it better to talk to such a lovely person and talk about your heart.

How do you sing a little song...... Sitting face to face, I still miss you.

That's right, it's that feeling, obviously looking at each other, but my heart is still full of little beauties.

Yang Rong almost resisted the temptation with the determination of a strong man to break his wrist.

And he soon discovered a problem, that is, as the heaviest tax of the Ming Dynasty...... There was no one, and the Ming court was extremely defensive of Suzhou.

Usually, Suzhou people are not able to enter the household department, and most of the officials sent to Suzhou have nothing to do with the local area, in order to collect taxes smoothly.

Yang Rong took advantage of this, and he first cooperated with Zhu Gaoxu to promote loans and win the support of some people.

Subsequently, it was announced that the treasure money could be used to compensate for the field endowment.

Although he did not directly say that the fire consumption should be abolished, since the use of treasure money was allowed, if the fire consumption was too much, he could exchange the grain for treasure money and hand it over to the imperial court.

As a result, the income of local officials in Suzhou fell sharply.

The most important source of wealth was gone, and the day after the news was announced, there was no one in the Suzhou Mansion.

The officials all asked for leave, leaving Yang Rong alone.

Although there was no shortage of officials in the Ming Dynasty, Yang Rong was only a cabinet scholar and the prefect of Suzhou, and he couldn't mobilize so many people to fill the gap.

Forced to be helpless, Yang Rong could only announce that he would also increase the allowance for Suzhou officials, which was about 30% of Yulu.

Only then did someone return to the government to do things.

Yang Rong also learned wisely, and he decisively promoted a few obedient officials and granted authority.

A few more thorns were punished.

Enwei combined and used the strength to eat milk, so he reluctantly pushed the national policy down.

The problem of Suzhou was solved, and Songjiang, Changzhou, and Zhenjiang were also solved.

These cabinet scholars have excellent abilities, and they all came with the holy decree, or Nan Zhili, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, although there are many resistances, they all have a good result.

"Back to Your Majesty's words, the four prefectures of Susong Changzhen have issued a total of 30 million yuan of treasure money loans, and the interest tax alone is 900,000 yuan...... This is just a small head, the implementation of treasure money, the convenience of businessmen, the increase in business taxes is more than one million. ”

Xia Yuanji talked eloquently, "Western Zhejiang was flooded, and the imperial court allocated grain, and encouraged the people to plant mulberry trees instead...... Rapid progress...... In the past two months, His Royal Highness the King of Han has planted 500,000 acres of land with mulberry trees. If everything goes well, an additional 300,000 pieces of silk can be added next year, and they can be sold overseas, and a piece of silk will be at least more than fifteen taels, which is almost five million taels of silver! ”

Xia Yuanji counted all the way, and the smile on Zhu Di's face became stronger and stronger.

In fact, Lao Xia still has one more item that has not been counted, that is, the over-issued treasure banknotes.

This item is in no way less than an increase in taxes.

And because it is very hidden and not easy to detect, it is very easy to use, Zhu Di said that he was quite satisfied.

The household department has passed this level...... Followed by the Criminal Department, which is still dealing with Li Zhigang's case, and there are more than 100 officials involved, and there are also large local households.

"Back to Your Majesty's words, the Criminal Department will resolutely crack down on corruption and will not be soft." Zheng Ci was full of confidence and introduced several major cases he handled, and Zhu Di had nothing to say.

Ministry of Industry, Ministry of War, Ministry of Rites, Inspectorate, Dali Temple...... All the yamen have an explanation for Zhu Di.

Soon the most critical part arrived.

"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Officials is ordered to inspect the capital and assess the hundred officials...... Most of the court officials can fulfill their duties, serve the country and the people, and dare not slack off. The ministers assessed the hundred officials, and they were quite pleased to see that they were united. Jian Yi said this, and the conversation changed, "It's just that there are some courtiers, although they are righteous and have no loss, but they are too lazy and informal." Frequent leave, laziness and laziness. He also ate, drank, and played chess in the government office, corrupting the atmosphere. and tens of thousands of treasure money, all of which were used to purchase food and spices...... All this, the minister thought that according to the rules of Jingcha, he had to play it truthfully, and implored His Majesty to decide to stay. ”

Although Jian Yi did not name names, Xu Jingchang was the only one who dared to be so presumptuous.

His remarks are also very interesting, first of all, he affirmed that Xu Jingchang was righteous, and he talked about trivial details.

Putting aside how he should be a general envoy, we think he is a villain, so please ask Your Majesty to remove him.

is worthy of being a heavenly official of the Ministry of Officials, and this method of rectifying people is powerful.

Zhu Di listened silently, and then smiled: "What do you mean, Xu Jingchang is not suitable to be a political envoy?" ”

Jian Yi hurriedly said: "The minister doesn't dare to say, the result of Jingcha, only His Majesty can decide whether to stay in the end." ”

Zhu Di laughed loudly: "What you wrote is reasonable and evidence-based, and it is difficult to refute, how can I overturn the results of Jingcha?" If I have to say that Xu Jingchang's evaluation is unfair, will I even overturn other people's evaluations? In that case, wouldn't the whole of Jingcha have to start all over again? ”

Zhu Di's tone became heavier and heavier, Jian Yi couldn't feel bad, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, if Jingcha is not suitable, the minister is willing to come again, if the minister fails the holy grace, the minister is willing to accept the guilt." ”

As he spoke, Jian Yi knelt on the main hall, took off the beam crown, and bowed to the ground.

Zhu Di looked at it for a long time, and suddenly smiled, "No need, since Xu Jingchang is not suitable to be a political envoy, then dismiss him." ”

It went so smoothly that the ministers were all surprised, especially Jian Yi, he also allowed a stomach full of rhetoric, and he couldn't use it at all, what's going on?

I saw Zhu Di shift his gaze to Xu Jingchang, "Your father lost his life for my martyrdom, I posthumously presented the Marquis of Wuyang before, and not long ago I posthumously presented the Duke of Dingguo, so you will inherit the title of Duke of Dingguo." ”

Xu Jingchang was busy thanking.

Zhu Di said again: "Don't be busy, I still have something to say, although you are young, but you are smart and studious, and your knowledge is extraordinary, I am looking for the prince's master, and I will be crowned as the prince of the country, Xu Jingchang, the prince of the country, and the prince and grandson!" ”

This is not just the prince's master, but also the grandson's master!

The Wen Chen present was jealous of the acid water, don't give it all to him, leave us a chance!

Xu Jingchang wanted to thank him again, but Zhu Di stopped him again, "Also, you are good at managing money, reforming the tax system, and having a lot of advice, although the merits and demerits cannot be offset, but the meritorious ministers, how can I not reward them?" Jiangnan Weaving Bureau and other places were originally the palace industry, and the supply of internal funds was handed over to you to take care of, so as to enrich the internal funds for my financial management. ”

is a knight, a prince's master, and a palace property...... Do you call this a dismissal?

I don't think that Xu Jingchang is even hotter, and the authority in his hand is heavier by three points!

Just when the big guy was thinking, Zhu Di threw another thunderbolt.

"Xu Jingchang, as the queen of the general, is the pillar of the country, plus the position of the governor of the right army and the left governor, and is also in charge of the Jinyi Guard."

Hearing this, many officials' eyes darkened...... It's bad, let's let him continue to be a political envoy, we regret it!

You are a genius, remember in a second: Red Sweet Spring:
