No one thought that Zhu Zhanqi, the prince of the Han Dynasty, would dare to "commit murder in public", and what he didn't expect was that Zhu Di didn't say a word, as if he was acquiescing.

"Uh......"

was trampled on the popliteal fossa by Zhu Zhanyan, and a trace of pain appeared on Dehuan's face.

"Remember, since you don't have enough strength, then lock your head and pretend to be your grandson, don't be incapable and blind all day long."

"Last time, my third uncle just made the mistake that ordinary people would make, and he couldn't bear to attack those ordinary herdsmen, but I wouldn't."

"It may be a bit arrogant to say, but think about it, you Mengyuan people should know the name of my Zhu Zhanyan."

"Now that I have gone with my father, I really don't want to participate in this kind of thing, and you have also seen the fate of the Japanese Kingdom, this is the price of their repeated invasion of my Daming Sea Frontier."

"Oh yes, I forgot to tell you."

"I built a landscape in the royal palace of Heiankyo, much larger than the one in the fishing sea, which was built with the corpses of more than 500,000 people."

"I told you that the Jingguan is magnificent, and the Danqi in front of the main hall of the Wa King's Palace is occupied, but it's a pity that the Jingguan in Shinji Lake can't be moved over, otherwise it must be unprecedented."

"I'm a person, the most annoying thing is trouble."

"To be honest, I really don't want to set foot on the grassland anymore, I'm a benevolent person, and the Jingguan on the grassland still torments my mind all the time."

Speaking of this, Zhu Zhanyan grabbed Tuohuan's hair and pulled him in front of him.

Leaning into Tuhuan's ear, Zhu Zhanyan said softly: "I don't want to build a Beijing view in Hulan, it's too troublesome." ”

"You, got it?"

After speaking, Zhu Zhanyan withdrew his feet and let go of the hand that was holding Tuohuan's hair.

The released Dehuan's body shook a little, and there was a slight movement on his waist and legs, but before he could get up, his expression changed slightly.

seemed to hesitate for a moment, but Tuhuan didn't stand up after all, and just knelt on the ground.

"Figured it out?" Seeing Zhu Zhanyan return to his position, Zhu Di bowed slightly, looked at the Dehuan below and asked.

The voice was low and his face was serious, and those who were familiar with Zhu Di knew that this was a precursor to Zhu Di's anger.

"Back to ...... Back to His Majesty the Great Emperor, I figured it out......" Tuhuan lowered his head, and his voice was still a little strange.

"After going back, the Warat Department will definitely give His Majesty the Great Emperor a satisfactory result."

"I hope you really figured it out." Zhu Di leaned back in his chair again, and his expression regained ease.

On today's occasion, Zhu Zhanyan's behavior was somewhat unruly and unexpected, but Zhu Di did not stop it.

He was originally an emperor immediately, but after becoming an emperor, there were too many things that he needed to consider from all aspects, so he had to choose some methods that he didn't like.

In the past two years, Zhu Zhan's resolute and resolute actions have confirmed that the sentence of non-violent non-cooperation is correct, and he is naturally happy to see it come to fruition.

To be realistic, even if something goes wrong in the future, it is Zhu Zhan's problem, and the emperor will not be wrong, not to mention that the emperor did not directly agree with Zhu Zhanyan's words.

It's so realistic, after all, there's a scale in everyone's heart to measure the importance of everything, everyone, and everything.

The farce came to an end, and when Nanzhang and the Khmer envoys stood up, Zhu Zhanyan originally wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to find some trouble, but after thinking about it, he still forgot it.

More than enough is too much.

For Zhu Zhanyan, this Chinese New Year's Eve banquet was very rewarding, not to mention fame and fortune, but at least the name was obtained, although it was not a good name.

As for Lema......

Let's take a look at this.

The next day, early in the morning.

There are many people at the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and officials may be able to keep their mouths shut and not talk about these things to unrelated people, but the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is not just officials.

Dancing girls, jugglers, and palace maids and eunuchs who accompanied them would always tell the story, and once they did, the news would spread at an uncontrollable speed.

Of course, this means that Zhu Di did not control the spread of the news, otherwise the news would definitely not be transmitted.

Zhu Zhan's previous campaign against the Japanese State involved too many people, and there were too many places involved, and it was difficult to control the news, but this was in the palace.

The owner of the palace, if he can't even control the news, then it is estimated that there is no need to mix.

Therefore, early in the morning, Zhu Zhanyan suffered from the strange eyes of the officials of the Zongren Mansion, and he didn't care.

For Zhu Zhanyan, people who don't need to be afraid of him will never be afraid of his notoriety, and he will never care about those who are afraid of him.

Ate something hastily, Zhu Zhan Yan entered the palace, and today is to worship the Taimiao.

It's not the first time Zhu Zhanyan has participated in this kind of thing, he has participated in it three times before, but today this time is a little different, there is one more link.

Taimiao sacrificed prisoners.

Zhu Zhan took out the head in the box and burned it in the brazier in front of the temple, which belonged to Ashikaga Yoshinori and Emperor Gokomatsu, and others were not qualified to be used as prisoners of the temple.

The mausoleum is dedicated to the enemy's head, and the old man is not weak today.

This, in fact, is the main meaning of the Taimiao prisoner, that is, to comfort the ancestors, your children and grandchildren have not weakened your name.

After the sacrifice of the prisoners, the other procedures went down without any new ideas, as in the usual years, and ended without any new ideas.

Qianqing Palace.

Originally, Zhu Zhanyan planned to return to Yunnan after sacrificing to the Taimiao, but Zhu Di opened his mouth to stay, saying that he would have a meal and leave.

In the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Zhanqi felt that even if it was Zhu Gaochi, he was afraid that he had not eaten here a few times.

"Eat more." Zhu Di personally sandwiched a full bowl of dishes for Zhu Zhanyan, and it is still being added.

Zhu Zhanyan was not too anxious, and ate slowly.

"Zhan Yan." Zhu Gaochi looked at his father, then at his son, and then turned his head to look at Zhu Zhanyan again.

"Huh?" Zhu Zhanyan raised his head with a bit of a dazedness.

"Last night, I went back and read the books you recommended to me......" Zhu Gaochi hesitated, but still chose to say it.

"Those books, isn't there something ......?"

When he said this, Zhu Gaochi hesitated for a while before choosing a more euphemistic statement.

"Not quite right?"

"Whether it's suitable or not, it's up to you to judge, Zhan Yan is just giving a suggestion." Zhu Zhanyan smiled slightly and put down the chopsticks in his hand.

"As for whether you want to listen to this advice or not, and what you will do after listening to it, that's your business."

"What advice?" Zhu Di was intrigued by the conversation between the two, and couldn't help asking.

"Uh...... Father. Zhu Gaochi took out the letter that Zhu Zhan Yan gave him from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Zhu Di.

"This is ......," Zhu Di frowned.

Don't think that Zhu Di is an immediate emperor, a reckless man, he doesn't know or doesn't read much, his father is Zhu Yuanzhang.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang started from a broken bowl, he never despised his son's education, so although Yongle Emperor Zhu Di left the impression that he was an immediate emperor, he did not read a lot of books.

Not to say that it is the forefront of the world, but it is definitely more than the average person.

With just a glance, Zhu Di recognized what kind of books those books were.

To tell the truth, if these titles were shown to the Confucian scholars, they might not really know the names of these books, because they don't read them.

It is not a forbidden book, it is also a Confucian book, but these books are almost completely opposite to the Cheng Zhu science that Confucian scholars learned in the early Ming Dynasty.

Just as Confucianism is now uniformly called Cheng Zhu Lixue, the books listed by Zhu Zhan also have a unified name.

Ramology.

At first, Zhu Di was a little angry when he saw these titles, because he was used to being an emperor and was very sensitive to this kind of problem.

The doctrine of the ram is also a Confucian doctrine, but in the Ming Dynasty, because the mainstream doctrine is Cheng Zhu Lixue, so few people know about the ram theory, and because of the conflict between these two doctrines, among those scholars who study Cheng Zhu Lixue, some radical people even regard the book of the ram theory as a forbidden book.

The reason why Zhu Di was angry at the beginning was because the ram doctrine was filled with a large number of thoughts of hypocrisy and weak monarchs, which was naturally unbearable for an emperor.

But after a short period of thought, Zhu Di figured out what his grandson wanted to do.

In addition to the ideas of the hypocrite and the weak king, there are other ideas in the study of the ram, such as the great unification and the great revenge.

Can the revenge of the Ninth Dynasty be avenged? Although it is also possible.

This is the ram's idea of revenge, to put it simply, whoever dares to bully me, the ram Confucian will directly handle the knife, even if you end up in ten rooms and nine empty, you will have to be killed.

As for the great unification, there is no need to talk about this.

"Well, it's good, go back and have a look." Zhu Di glanced at Zhu Zhanchi in surprise, and then said to Zhu Gaochi in an extremely flat tone.

No one knew that after figuring out Zhu Zhanyan's thoughts, Zhu Di felt a little guilty about this grandson in his heart.

Previously, although he gave all kinds of preferential treatment to the Han Dynasty, and even broke the ancestral precept of Emperor Taizu Gao's "Eat Lu and not cure things", but if he really studied it carefully, he still had a little doubt about the Han Dynasty.

Suspiciousness, this is an advantage and a disadvantage that every monarch will have.

But after figuring out Zhu Zhanyan's thoughts, Zhu Di also understood.

When he was the first prince, why did King Han have so many supporters? In addition to his repeated military exploits in the midst of the Jingjing, another reason is that Zhu Gaochi's "benevolence" is a bit excessive.

An emperor must not only have a benevolent side, but also a tough side.

If Zhu Gaochi can digest the ram study thoroughly, then he will become a monarch who at least looks perfect on the surface.

This is not good for the Han king's lineage.

"Uncle, I know that you are not actually weak, you also want to be tough on some issues, such as the grassland and the Japanese robbers."

Zhu Zhanyan put down his chopsticks, folded his hands, and looked solemn.

"But Daming needs too many places to use money and food, not to mention that he can't make ends meet every year, but he rarely has savings, so you have always advocated recuperation, and even had quarrels with grandpa many times."

"However, in my humble opinion, even if you are recuperating and accumulating strength for the sake of Daming, you don't have to hide your tough side."

"Of course, Zhan Yan is not teaching you, Zhan Yan is not qualified to do so, and Zhan Yan did not recommend these books to you to give you advice."

"The reason why Zhan Yan did this is mainly because he thinks that our Ming scholars can't continue like this."

"Zhao Song was dominated by Cheng Zhu Lixue, and he was weak all the time, and he was pressed on the head by various foreign enemies."

"I think that at the beginning, Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty established the Ram School as an official school, so that the Han Dynasty realized Zhongxing, and the Zhao and Song Dynasty ......"

Speaking of this, Zhu Zhanyan shook his head slightly and did not speak again.

At this point, he has said enough, Zhu Gaochi can be said to be the smartest person in Zhu Di's lineage, it is impossible not to understand.

"Ramology?" Zhu Zhanji, who was on the side, watched his cousin finish speaking before he opened his mouth, with a curious look.

"Hmm." Zhu Zhanyan nodded.

"If my cousin is interested, I can also go and have a look, but I still need the uncle's consent."

Zhu Zhanyan didn't want to overstep, this was his suggestion, it was for the good of Daming, but there was also his selfishness hidden in it.

It's time for Confucianism to change, and the direction of history Zhu Zhanyan can't decide, but at the moment, he doesn't want the Ming Dynasty to wait until Wang Yangming appears and the birth of Xinxue to let the Ming Dynasty abandon Cheng Zhu Lixue.

Changing as soon as possible can make Daming somewhat better, and it can also make Zhu Zhanyan's current situation better.

Of course, the most important thing is to kick out those Shabi scholars who have studied Cheng Zhuli to the point of stupidity.

Coming to Chen Ge, Huang Huai and others again, Zhu Zhanyan couldn't be sure if he could be as calm as this time.

From the North...... No, since he exterminated the Japanese in Taizhou Mansion, these scholars of Cheng Zhu Lixue have attacked him again and again, and he can endure it until now, which can be regarded as a good temper.

"This ...... Is it with the one you gave me? After being silent for a long time, Zhu Di spoke again, and got up and took a piece from the side.

"Sort of." Zhu Zhanyan didn't hide it, and nodded very straightforwardly.

"Let's go back to the capital."

Zhu Di's sudden words made Zhu Zhanchi stunned, and made Zhu Gaochi's father and son directly stunned.

"Forget it." Zhu Zhanyan quickly came back to his senses and shook his head slightly.

"Grandpa, Daming needs Annan, but it doesn't just need Annan."

"Siam, Nanzhang, Khmer and the lingering Angkor Dynasty must be disposed of, which is an extremely important thing for us in the Ming Dynasty."

"In the eyes of my grandson, if you dispose of them, Daming can continue the national fortune for another hundred years."

……

At this moment, even Zhu Di was stunned, he didn't expect Zhu Zhanyan to raise things to such a height, which made him unable to react for a while.

After a long time of "...... of the Centennial National Fortune", Zhu Di lowered his head with a little frustration, looked at the fold in his hand, and muttered to himself.

"Actually, with what you give to the court now, how can you continue the national fortune for a hundred years?"

"My grandson is full." Zhu Di's voice was too small, even if it was at the same table, Zhu Zhanyan and the three of them didn't hear it.

"Wait a minute." Seeing his grandson stand up, Zhu Di knew that his next step was to say the news of leaving, so he interrupted his grandson's words first.

"There are still a lot of things that grandpa didn't understand before, such as this fold, and then the previous grain."

Zhu Zhanyan paused and sat down again.

"Back to grandpa, my grandson sent someone across the ocean to retrieve three different seeds, and you should know the yield."

"The grandson hasn't been back for almost a year, and the breeding work is only learned from the father's letter to the grandson, if there is no accident, the grandson can send some seeds to the court when he goes back this time, and the grandfather can send someone to go back with the grandson."

"However, there is one thing that the grandson wants to explain in advance, the three kinds of grain that the grandson got this time can only be given to the imperial court."

"Two?" Zhu Di's brows furrowed slightly.

"Yes." Zhu Zhanyan nodded, but was not prepared to explain too much.

"The things involved in it are a bit complicated, and some of them are even being explored by grandchildren, but don't worry, those two kinds of food alone are enough for the imperial court."

"Here, my grandson has two pieces of advice for you."

"First, corn is fine, but don't plant sweet potatoes in large quantities because sweet potatoes are difficult to store and are not suitable for storage."

"This can't be." Zhu Di directly planned Zhu Zhanyan's words.

"The yield of sweet potatoes is the highest, and it is also the most important thing for grandpa, but you say that it cannot be planted in large quantities? You should know that this is uncontrollable, even if it is an order of the imperial court, when it comes to rations, the people will obey the yang and the yin. ”

"That's the second point my grandson said." Zhu Zhanyan was not in a hurry, and said without hurry.

"In response to what you said, my grandson's advice is to start with taxes."

"Taxes?" Zhu Di was stunned for a moment.

"Yes, taxes!" Zhu Zhanyan breathed a sigh of relief and told his thoughts.

"Our Ming Dynasty's taxes have always been based on physical goods, and the imperial court can stipulate that sweet potatoes are not collected when collecting taxes, which can ensure that the people do not plant too many sweet potatoes."

"At the very least, they also have to grow some rice and wheat to pay taxes, and as for the rest of the land, although the people will definitely grow sweet potatoes in large quantities, there is a good saying that if the grain is cheap, it hurts the farmers."

"If you plant more, you will naturally harvest more, and the people can't sell it at a price, or even sell it, so they will naturally consider it at their discretion."

"In less than two years, people will choose to grow a small number of high-yield sweet potatoes as their own rations, and the rest of the land will be used to grow rice and wheat, which can pay taxes and pay higher prices."

"As for the rest, you can take advantage of the one your grandson gave you."

Zhu Zhanyan pointed to Zhu Di's right hand, and Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi's father and son also followed Zhu Zhanyan's pointing.

The fold.

"Cooperate with this new tax method, and implement it together?" Zhu Di's brows furrowed, but immediately soothed again.

"It's a good idea."

As he spoke, Zhu Di handed the fold in his hand to Zhu Gaochi.

Zhu Zhanyan didn't write much in the excerpt, and it can be summed up in four words: spread into acres.

That's right, it is the Yongzheng Emperor of the Qing Dynasty who implemented the method of apportioning into the mu.

The so-called apportionment into the mu is to bind the tax to the land, so that those who own more land pay more taxes, and those who own less land pay less taxes, so that those who really should pay taxes pay taxes, and those who are difficult to maintain their livelihoods pay less or even no taxes.

On the whole, the tax revenue of the Ming treasury has not changed.

"I've said everything I have to say, it's a long way back to Yunnan, and my grandson is leaving."

Zhu Zhanyan stood up, put a letter on the table, and then saluted Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi, and slowly withdrew from the Qianqing Palace.

With the method of spreading into mu and the grain of sweet potatoes as bargaining chips, Yunnan will be able to stabilize.

At the very least, it can be stable until the twenty-second year of Yongle.
