Xu Jingchang's words successfully made Jiuqing on the opposite side stare at him with round eyes, and on Xungui's side, Zhu Neng, Duke of Chengguo, and Xu Huizu, Duke of Wei, all looked at him stupidly.

How else can it be done?

Xu Jingchang's awesomeness lies in the fact that he can always come up with seemingly earth-shattering and inexplicably logical statements.

It's like cutting out some guards, that's almost everyone's consensus.

It simply won't work without layoffs.

The land has been encroached upon by the chief of the guard, and it cannot be recovered at all.

And even if you take back your life, it is impossible to recruit military households.

At the beginning, in order to reduce the pressure on border defense, Zhu Yuanzhang levied twice the land tax from military households, and the civilian households paid one bucket of grain and the military households paid two buckets.

The taxes are heavy, and you have to go into battle to fight, who wants to be a military household?

Unless there were large-scale captives at the beginning of the country, as well as the Semu people and the Mongols, they were organized into military households and placed in the guards, which was logical.

Now, you want to arrest people all over the world, and wait for the world to be in chaos!

If you can't do it, you can't do it.

Therefore, Xia Yuanji and others wanted to take the opportunity to weaken the military household and dismantle the guards...... Zhu Di can't stop this kind of thing, and he can't oppose it.

Seeing that the civilian officials were about to score, but Xu Jingchang's strange soldiers were outstanding, he took out the issue of the source of the army, which is related to the country's capital, and also took the north-south list as an example, Zhu Di accepted it almost immediately.

It couldn't be more reasonable.

The source of the army cannot be narrower and narrower, it must be extensive, which is the foundation of the Ming Dynasty.

But not everyone can be a soldier, what to do?

The answer given by Xu Jingchang was martial arts.

What if the people are not willing to join the army?

Then improve the treatment of martial arts, just like Xiucai.

He proposed the North-South list earlier, which made this statement more acceptable.

The more Zhu Di pondered, the more reasonable it became.

"Xu Pingzhang, I can't figure this thing out! The imperial court doesn't have so much money, it can't work at all! Jian Yi decisively refused.

Xu Jingchang smiled and said, "Jian Tianguan, are you admitting that it costs a lot of money to raise those talents?" ”

Jian Yi rolled his eyes angrily, "These are two things at all, don't talk nonsense!" ”

Xu Jingchang said: "Why am I talking nonsense? Behold, abolish the guards, return the land to the imperial court, organize the households, and turn the military households into the people's households. How many fields did the imperial court have, and how many households did they add...... There will definitely be a number, and you can't cut off the guards, and then the land of the guards will disappear, right? It doesn't make sense. How much income can the household department increase, Xia Shangshu does not have an account? The imperial court took out the increased revenue, distributed the number of soldiers according to the number of people in each province, and then set up a martial arts school, determined the amount of conscription, and selected the best to enter the martial arts school...... Isn't that a simple thing to do? ”

Of course, this thing is not difficult, but the problem is that if you do this, won't the martial artist be on an equal footing with the civilian official?

Sage Kong was pulled off the horse, and now it is the turn of all the scholars, and if he takes a step back, he will have to make an inch, so that it will be difficult to clean up...... Xu Jingchang's routines can be regarded as seeing through them, but there is no way to deal with them.

On the martial arts side, there were only two Guogong present, Chengguo Gong Zhu Neng was simple-minded, he thought that he would definitely lose a lot of guards, but now he inexplicably took back the lost benefits, and he could also increase martial arts, give preferential treatment to martial arts scholars, and be comparable to Xiucai. Not only did the martial artist not lose, but he also made a profit, so he was naturally ecstatic and shouted that Dingguo Gong was wise.

Xu Huizu saw it much deeper than Zhu Neng.

He found that it wasn't that simple...... The number of soldiers and horses was allocated to the provinces, and martial arts schools were set up to attract talents. In this set, in fact, the biggest loss is the hereditary general.

It's just that Zhu Neng may not be able to understand this kind of long-term thing.

Xu Huizu knew in his heart that he wouldn't say it. And the Xu family doesn't care about this kind of thing.

Needless to say, Xu Jingchang was also admitted to Tanhua, and he was destined to take an unimagined path.

Xu Huizu jumped out and had the courage to do anything, he just wanted to brush up some good feelings with Zhu Di, he didn't ask for much credit, he just asked himself not to drag the next generation of the Xu family back.

So he has no reason to object.

But Zhu Di was overjoyed...... Strictly speaking, this scheme only benefits him.

Expand the source of troops, so that people of insight in the world can serve the emperor, and the provinces will calm the pressure of war and share the fruits of expanding their territory.

That's a lot of love.

Zhu Di pondered for a while, and suddenly said: "I remember that in the Han and Tang Dynasties, even if it was a minister, he had to know the soldiers?" Isn't that so? ”

At this time, Yao Guangxiao, who had been silent, slowly spoke, "What Your Majesty said is true...... In the Han Dynasty, there was no imperial examination, and in the Tang Dynasty, although there was an imperial examination, it was not the most important way to enter the ranks. A large number of scholars are all on the horse to govern the army and dismount to govern the people. The recruitment of soldiers in the Han Dynasty was inherited from the Qin system and selected from the athletes in the world...... The source of soldiers in the Tang Dynasty came from the government soldiers all over the world. Fang Cai Dingguo Gong said that everyone in the world can become soldiers, not limited to military households. Lao Chen thought that this was quite reasonable, and the precedent of a strong Han and Tang Dynasty was the benefit of doing so. ”

Xu Jingchang immediately smiled and said, "Young Master Yao is really keen, and he ...... in one sentence It's just that I think this method is better than the Han and Tang Dynasties. ”

Yao Guangxiao narrowed his triangular eyes and said lightly: "You're talking about martial arts, right?" ”

Xu Jingchang nodded, "That's right, the establishment of martial arts not only teaches martial artists how to fight, but also teaches them to be loyal to the monarch and serve the country and have the world in mind." After such strict training, it is really a way to benefit the country and the people to prevent the soldiers from returning to the generals and put an end to the division of feudal towns. ”

Yao Guangxiao nodded again and again, and couldn't help but bow deeply to Zhu Di, "Your Majesty, when you say this, the Pingzhang Court supports this proposal!" ”

The old monk spoke, this is not Xu Jingchang's opinion alone, but the opinion of Pingzhang Yuan, and the weight has greatly increased.

Zhu Di couldn't help but nodded, "I also think it's a good idea...... But how to do it requires a bit of hard work...... Young Master Yao, you and Dingguo Gong and Wei Guogong work out this strategy. ”

Yao Guangxiao nodded, but Xu Jingchang suddenly said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this kind of thing requires the participation of the household department Shangshu, and with the help of Xia Shangshu's shrewdness, to calculate this account." ”

Xia Yuanji was stunned, but he didn't refuse.

Although this made Wenchen's side very embarrassed, but let Xu Jingchang toss and turn, he couldn't participate in it, and it would only be more embarrassing.

Moreover, Xia Yuanji has always been determined to become the leader of Wenchen, and he cannot be absent.

Zhu Di thought about it, and nodded and said: "I hope you can unite sincerely and come up with a strategy as soon as possible, I urgently need to see the results." ”

The Wuyingdian meeting is over, and everyone has their own hearts.

There is no doubt that a larger round of changes is coming, and it is really hard to say what will happen next.

Xu Jingchang caught up with Xia Yuanji and said with a smile: "Old Xia, don't stare at me, in fact, I won't forget you if there are good things." Why didn't I call it Jianyi? ”

Xia Yuanji said twice, "Dingguo Gong, I won't talk about official affairs, if you really want to join forces with me, you will agree to marry my niece, wouldn't it be better if we became in-laws?" ”

Xu Jingchang rolled his eyes, "In that case, I'm not your niece-in-law, isn't it cost-effective?" ”

"Oops! You're dead-eyed! Let's both talk about it, and you can call it whatever you like. ”

Xu Jingchang was stunned and seemed to be in a state of thought.

Xia Yuanji came to his senses, "Really, don't lie to you, my niece is like a flower, she is good-looking, and she is knowledgeable, so she won't lose anything to your kid." ”

Xu Jingchang was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Lao Xia, otherwise, can you bring your niece to my house, let's meet and talk?" ”

Xia Yuanji snorted: "You kid is really a bully!" Obviously you should go! Okay, I'll make a step, I'll go! When the time comes, I can remind you that if you can't find fault with it, you must say yes, or I will not be done with you! ”

Xu Jingchang rolled his eyelids and didn't say anything...... Anyway, you have to marry one, who is not to marry!

He staggered home and found that the girl of the Huang family was wearing a lotus-colored shirt and was feeding the peacocks.

A brightly colored male peacock suddenly let out a burst of chirping, and then opened the screen at the yellow girl.

Xu Jingchang couldn't help but smile and said, "See, the peacocks are all moved." ”

Miss Huang took the tray, turned around, and said with a chuckle: "Thank you Dingguo Gong for the compliment, what are you going to eat?" ”

"Lotus leaf noodles, look at your appetite in this dress."

Miss Huang already knew that he was a little out of tune, and she didn't care, she just smiled: "This color is woven by the Hanwang workshop, and it sells well in Yingtian this year, my father bought one for me and my sister, and I just made it into clothes." ”

Xu Jingchang said: "So that's the case, look at your piece is not very good." I'll talk to King Han when I go back, and ask him to send one hundred and eighty horses over, and if you want the top one, you can come and pick the good one. ”

Miss Huang smiled: "Dingguo Gong is so generous, isn't there a good thing?" ”

Xu Jingchang said: "I don't know if it's counted...... You'll find out in a while anyway. ”

Miss Huang didn't ask much, so she went to make lotus leaf noodles.

When she finished doing it, she sent it over, and found that Xu Jingchang already had two more guests here.

One is a middle-aged civil official, looking at that bearing, no less than Daddy Huang Guan.

He also brought a girl with him, who looked about the same as himself...... Coincidentally, she is also wearing lotus leaf-colored clothes, but this one is obviously more exquisite, not only the material is good, but the collar and cuffs are also embroidered with a lot of colorful butterflies flying, spring breeze willows, which is much more luxurious than herself.

I actually hit the shirt.

Miss Huang didn't dare to say more, but asked, "Dingguo Gong, it's time to eat." ”

Xu Jingchang also smiled: "Xia Shangshu, I specially ordered lotus leaf noodles today, you and Miss Xia must try it." ”

Xu Jingchang said, and also glanced at this Xia girl, and then at Huang girl...... His eyes rolled over the two of them, and he suddenly had an inexplicable feeling.

Why does Miss Xia look gorgeous, but there is nothing to see.

Miss Huang was indifferent, revealing an atmosphere. At a glance, it must be the person who remembers it, not how much the clothes on the body are worth.

This is like Sister Lin, there is no need to pile up countless famous brands at all. Naturally beautiful, naturally dignified.

It turns out that this girl is very beautiful!

Xu Jingchang suddenly discovered something amazing......
