Forbidden City, Wenhua Palace.

Zuo Liangyu, the commander of the Nine Gates, was in a hurry to walk around the hall.

He was the chief of staff of the First Army, and because the First Army did not bear much pressure on the direction of the attack, he served as the commander of the Nine Gates and led a division of troops to garrison the Beijing Division.

Hearing that tens of thousands of people went to Beijing to make trouble, Zuo Liangyu found His Royal Highness as soon as possible, hoping to intercept them halfway.

Unexpectedly, Yang Chengying disagreed.

When these people went to Duanmen to mourn, Zuo Liangyu asked to send troops to expel them again, but he still didn't allow them.

"Your Highness," Zuo Liangyu looked anxious, "It is very bad for you to let these people make trouble outside!"

Yang Chengying still looked at Song Shu with a leisurely face, and said with a smile: "What are you panicking about! Have you ever heard of a saying? The scholars rebelled, and it will not be successful for ten years."

"However, they are good at demagoguery, and they are afraid that the people at the bottom will be ignorant and fall into evil, and they will rebel against His Highness together."

"Then wait until after the rebellion."

Yang Chengying was not in a hurry or impatient, and raised his hand to beckon Zuo Liangyu to sit down.

Zuo Liangyu sat down reluctantly.

Yang Chengying comforted him: "Do you know what was the stupidest thing Zhang Juzheng did when he was the first assistant?"

"I don't know."

"He shouldn't devalue himself and deal with a few officials. In the end, I was half angry, but my opponent became famous because of it."

"Huh......?"

"These scholars wished I would kill him, so that they could make a name for themselves, and the children of the family would be taken care of. I ignore or refuse to achieve what they want, so I ignore it."

"That's just as well. Anyway, they can't make much trouble, they really can't, they all throw them in the mines for us to mine."

"Yes. You have to remember that you can't be loved by everyone in this life, especially if you have a lot of power."

Hearing this, Zuo Liangyu nodded.

He suddenly thought of something and asked curiously, "Your Highness, why are you resolutely restricting the clan fields? I've heard that this is an initiative of Pham Van Chin-duong."

Fan Wenzhenggong refers to Fan Zhongyan, who built houses in his hometown and reclaimed wasteland for the poor children of the clan to study and gain fame.

"Because there are too few Pham Van Zhenggong, and there are too many people like that outside."

Yang Chengying replied softly.

Peeling aside the fog of history, there are some phenomena worth noting.

Take the germ of capitalism, for example.

In some artisanal workshops, the owner of the factory who has the capital and raw materials hires employees with free status to produce for the needs of the market.

This phenomenon appears in some places, and at first glance it looks like that.

In essence, it exists only as a supplement to the subsistence smallholder economy, and there is no room for growth.

Yang Chengying traveled through the previous reading, saw the development history of the clan, and realized that an undercurrent was silently changing the direction of history.

Although the feudal shackles on tenant and employment relations were relaxed, the commodity economy developed, and in some areas spontaneous germination.

However, this loosening was clearly not in the interests of the feudal scholars.

Any old class is not willing to withdraw from the stage of history, and will surely die and struggle.

Because of its spontaneous nature, the struggle of the new forces is loose and threatening, but not lethal.

The feudal scholars abandoned the old rulers and united with the new rulers to strangle this new force that was still in its infancy.

The most intuitive reaction is the clan field.

According to incomplete statistics, during the Ming Chongzhen period, the five surnames of Fan, Shen, Wu, Chen and Jiang in Wu County had 8,078 acres of clan land. By the end of the Qing Dynasty, there were more than 140 ethnic fields covering an area of more than 500 acres in Wu County.

The cultivated land area of Huizhou is 1,183,477.46 mu, of which 169,431.49 mu is ethnic land, accounting for 14.32% of the total cultivated area.

The purpose of the gentry and landlords in establishing the clan Tianyizhuang was to consolidate feudal rule by maintaining the loose patriarchal relations through economic power.

Yang Cheng should limit the clan land and divide the land

Land is the fertile soil to help the local people get rid of feudal shackles and cultivate a commodity economy.

Therefore, he did not care about the troubles of scholars and the rebellion of local forces.

It would be strange if they didn't die and struggle.

The current rebel forces are all spontaneous, and compared with Yang Chengying's high degree of organization, it is not enough to plug the gaps.

Outside the Forbidden City, tens of thousands of people sat in front of the gate and continued to demonstrate.

However, the people, who were tired of watching, went home one after another.

Xue Guoguan and Chen Mingxia didn't dare to be conspicuous bags, so they hurriedly dispersed with the people.

"His Highness is really calm, he didn't react to such a loud noise outside."

Xue Guoguan said, "If I hadn't personally participated in the military conference and knew His Highness's resolute and resolute style, I would have suspected that His Highness was suddenly confused."

"Your Highness is really clever." Chen Mingxia said, "Even if these people meditate for ten days, they will not be able to pay any less taxes. If they dare to resist and fail to pay the taxes, Your Highness will have every reason to clean them up."

"You mean, Your Highness won't clean them up because of this."

"Of course. His Highness is very shrewd, and knows that if he shows up or reacts at all, it will be a great victory for these gentlemen."

"Makes sense."

"Lord Xue!"

"Huh?"

"They came at this time, apparently prepared. If you can't see Your Highness, you, the former second assistant of the dynasty, will be in trouble."

Xue Guoguan, who was still thinking about watching a play just now, was stunned for a moment.

His head is big.

It's not about pushing him into the fire pit, hiss! It should be an ice cellar.

"I don't accompany me, I have to catch the medicine and pretend to be sick." Xue Guoguan decided to pretend to be sick and not see them.

Chen Mingxia looked at the back in the distance and smiled slightly.

However, what Chen Mingxia didn't expect was that Chen Zhixuan took the initiative to come to the door.

Both of them have been in the Fushe Society, and the relationship is not bad.

As soon as Chen Mingxia returned home, he heard the news of Chen Zhixuan's visit.

Count it and count it, and you miss it.

Chen Mingxia had no choice but to bite the bullet and personally greet Chen Zhixuan outside the mansion.

After the two sat down as guests and hosts, they exchanged a few words of greeting.

Chen Zhixuan said: "I heard that Baishi won the favor of Yang Chengying and studied in the Ministry of Officials."

"That's what happened." Chen Mingxia said, "Learning is also a test."

"Brother Chen, Yang Chengying has no king, no father, no loyalty, no filial piety, no benevolence, and unrighteousness, if you follow this kind of person, sooner or later you will end up in a different place."

After listening to Chen Zhixuan's words, Chen Mingxia thought to himself, you came to me to cause me to be different.

Chen Mingxia said, "Su'an, you and I know very well that if you continue to make trouble like this, there will be no good results. Listen to my advice and go back."

"Hundred History! You are no longer the Chen Baishi you were back then, but a desire for profit."

"If I am lustful, I will denounce your father as a thief, and make you lose face in front of the southern scholars."

"You!"

"Let's go back. Study hard, take the internal examination in the future, and still get ahead."

Chen Mingxia is very calm, he should be persuaded, and it is none of his business to listen to it or not.

While chatting, the Chen family came in happily.

"What are you so happy about?" Chen Mingxia asked.

"Master, there is good news from the front, Taiyuan City has been breached." The servant replied.

"What!" Chen Zhixuan was stunned and sat on the ground all of a sudden.
