Zhu Di was a little weak-hearted: "Even so, the imperial court will not reach the point where it can't afford to raise it." ”

Zhu Gaoxian said in a deep voice: "Dad, you haven't figured it out yet, okay, I'll calculate the son for you." The second-rank lieutenant in the clan has a salary of 200 stone a year, which doesn't sound like much, but you don't want to count how many of them there are? ”

Zhu Di asked, "How much?" ”

Zhu Gaoxian said: "A generation of idle vassal kings who have nothing to do has given birth to thirty sons, right? Twenty more sons for a son, right? Isn't that reasonable? Let's add it up, thirty times twenty times ten times ten, sixty thousand! A full guard is only 5,600 people, these 60,000 troops are enough to form a border army guarding the border fortress, the Ming Dynasty raised a 60,000 army without any combat effectiveness, this is still a clan, how many clans must there be in the world? ”

Zhu Di was frightened by this huge number, and couldn't help but gasp: "So many?!" ”

What Zhu Gaoxian said was not an exaggeration at all.

The wonders in the Zhu family have lived a lifetime and given birth to a hundred sons!

Zhu Di calmed down and asked, "Do you have a solution?" ”

He knew King Qi, and when King Qi spoke, he already had a solution to the problem.

He knew one thing better, King Qi's cunning so exposed on the table was just the tip of the iceberg.

Zhu Gaoxian said slowly: "Each of them receives the land for the second time, and he will rest for his eternal cause." He saw that there were floating quotas in each province today, so he started with the lieutenant of the Shuren, and when he received Lu, he donated three or four years of Lu, bought land and gave it, and his income could be when he was old. Those who have died of extinction will have their inheritance in the field, that is, they will be endowed with all the sects by entering the government. Those who have not received land are not allowed to farm in accordance with the law of restricting land. Those who have land will be sold to give him a sect. Those who are able to live in the fields and are able to live in the vast distance, listen. So persuade Tian also. The rest of the people who receive the field are more than the main branch, and the antique is more. The husband will give a quarter, and the amount will be reduced to the fullest. In this way, decades and generals and lieutenants below each have a permanent business, do not bother with funds. ”

Considering that the old man's limited education level may not be able to understand it, he continued: "To understand it simply, the fief is divided into land. The fiefdom only collects taxes, and if you buy a certain amount of land and distribute it to you, you can collect rent, and the rent is dozens of times more than the tax. Moreover, after the land is divided, the descendants of the clan will no longer be divided, and they will be forever. To completely solve the problem of the clan, of course, it costs a lot of money to buy land. ”

The problem of the Ming Empire's clan is like a quenching knife inserted in the heart, corroding the heart of the empire step by step, and it is not that no one has thought about how to solve this problem.

Xu Guangqi at the end of the Ming Dynasty came up with such a solution.

This benevolent brother can be described as an all-round talent, he introduced the idea of "the earth is round" in the astronomical calendar, and in agriculture, he also has "The Complete Book of Agricultural Administration", "Sweet Potato Shu", "Agricultural Relics and Miscellaneous Books", "Draft of Agricultural Books", "Taixi Water Law" and other works.

In mathematics, he also translated the Geometry Primitives and personally wrote the Pythagorean Meaning and the Similarities and Differences in Measurement.

In the military, Xu Guangqi admired the manufacture of firearms, vigorously promoted the introduction of artillery, and played the use of firearms.

If it's just a scientific research talent, in fact, scientific research is just Xu Guangqi's sideline, his main business is politics, Wanli Jinshi, official to Chongzhen Dynasty Rites Department Shangshu and Wenyuan Pavilion University Scholar, Cabinet Second Assistant, is second only to the first assistant of the cabinet.

While fighting wits and courage with the old foxes in the court, he sat at the core of the empire, and while engaging in scientific research, he accidentally became the top figure in the scientific research community of the Ming Dynasty......

And how to solve the problem of the sect domain, Xu Guangqi also found a way to change the fief to the land, based on the Xia Yin Shang feudal and field production, and there were also specific measures, but at this time in the late Ming Dynasty, even a god like Xu Guangqi could not be saved.

The country is about to die, there will be demons, and there is a way to save the country, but no one dares to do these things. The Zhu family couldn't be offended, and the local gentry couldn't move it, and some of the people who didn't have it were reported. Whoever dares to stand up against it, he counts how many heads he has enough for them to cut off.

As long as you dare to touch these things, don't say that you Xu Guangqi is now the second-in-command of the cabinet, even if you are the first-in-command of the cabinet and the head of the court, you have to let your nine clans have fun.

……

Zhu Di pondered for a moment and exclaimed: "It's really a fairy strategy, eradicating the troubles of the Great Ming Sect, no matter how they are born, in the end there is only such a little land, there are more births and no raising, and fewer births will be passed on for a longer time." ”

Thinking of this, Zhu Di couldn't help but wonder: "How did your little head grow, and how did you come up with these evil strategies?" ”

When he heard it, he felt terrified, but King Qi was able to come up with a solution so easily.

Although he was accustomed to King Qi's demonic thinking that popped up from time to time, every time he listened to these ideas that King Qi came up with, he could make Zhu Di admire.

Zhu Gaoxian smiled and said, "It's just to read more books and read more newspapers." ”

Zhu Di didn't believe it, and he didn't ask any further.

But what he didn't expect was that what King Qi said this time was true.

"But have you ever thought about a question?"

Zhu Di turned to say, "Although this can get rid of the heavy oppression brought by the clan, it is beneficial to the imperial court, but it is harmful to the Zhu family, you are the Zhu family, you will become the emperor in the future, your sons will always be the king of the domain, the king of the vassal will regenerate the king of the county, and the children and grandchildren will be endless, and the knife you come up with now to deal with the clan will also fall on the heads of your children and grandchildren in the future." ”

The reason why Zong Fan can live with the country is because they are the Zhu family.

Zhu Gaoxian himself is the Zhu family, and he himself is the beneficiary of the clan policy, but now he is sharpening his knife and walking towards the Zhu family, and in the end, this knife will sooner or later cut at himself.

When Zhu Gaoxian became the emperor, except for the son who became the emperor, the rest of the sons had to cry.

Isn't our dad a pit for his son!

Zhu Gaoxian smiled slightly: "If the clan is not cured, it will poison the Ming Dynasty for a long time." If the Ming Dynasty is gone, will the clan still be surnamed Zhu? ”

Zhu Di suddenly woke up: "Yes, that's right, if the country is gone, there will be anything to do with the clan." ”

The Ming Dynasty belongs to the Zhu family, and the Zhu family is also the Ming Dynasty.

The clan can do anything in order to make money, but he is not willing to do such a thing as treason against the enemy, because if the country is gone, their clan will die, of course, Zhu Qizhen is not in this ranks.

If the Ming Dynasty is gone, what is the use of giving so many good policies to the clan?

Zhu Gaoxian's words can be described as hitting the nail on the head, which made Zhu Di feel a lot.

Although I have taken meat from the bowls of your clans, bled from your bodies, and pulled teeth from your mouths, it is all for your good.

You have to thank me!

The validity period of Zongfan's long-term meal ticket depends on how long the national fortune of the Ming Dynasty is!

But Zhu Di had a toothache again: "There is a way, who will do it?" ”

The old man, the sword-wielder of the Ming Dynasty, has been a man for so long, so he naturally understands a very realistic truth: there is always a way to solve the problem, and the person who solves the problem is always gone.

There are many problems, the old man is not helpless, but he can't implement this method.

It's like now, there is a solution to the problem of the clan, but who should do it?

If Zhu Di did it, all the clans in the world would point at his nose and scold, including his own brothers and nephews......

But if Zhu Gaoxian can't do it, King Qi has done this, he will wait slowly to be scolded in the future, and he won't think about sitting comfortably on the throne.

The best way to solve the problem of the clan is to let the clan do it, and it is best to find a clan with the right to speak and status to do it, at least the vassal king. But it's just that the clan is not stupid, where are they willing to do this kind of thing to cut meat from themselves.

The clans are such a complex system, they are greedy and short-sighted, they hope that the Ming Dynasty will last for eternity, and at the same time they are not willing to pay a penny or take a penny less, the most patriotic is the Zongfan, and the most harmful to the Ming Dynasty is also the Zongfan.

"Isn't there a ready-made candidate?"

Zhu Gaoxian chuckled and said, "My second brother has status and prestige, who will do it if he doesn't do this?" ”

Zhu Di's eyes lit up: "Do you plan to let the second child go against this thunder?" ”

Zhu Gaoxian said righteously: "Dad, look at what you said, where am I asking my brother to go to the thunder, I am asking him to atone for his sins and give him a chance to redeem himself!" ”

Zhu Di smiled: "You are really fucking immoral." ”

Having said that, Han Wang is indeed the most suitable person.

Although the identity of the King of Han is very complicated now, he is the most suitable person, and in today's clan, the king of Han is one of the most powerful vassal kings, even if he does something rebellious, he can be among the best in the clan.

What's more, even if King Han withstood this thunder, it didn't matter if he stinked his reputation in the clan.

King Han's reputation is stinky enough, it doesn't matter how stinky it is, how much difference can there be between a lump of sheep dung and a lump of cow dung?

"So that's it?"

"Okay, that's it."

"Okay, then you have to cover me in the back, and I'll arrange it."

"Don't worry about doing it boldly, I'll support you."

"No, no, no, it's to support my second brother."

"Yes, yes."

The father and son looked at each other and smiled, and they had already finalized the idea of letting King Han take the blame.

……

In Zhao Prison, King Han held the grass in his mouth, looked up to the sky and sighed: "The fourth child is a loyal person." ”

After he was escorted back to Jinling City from Shandong, he was directly taken to Zhao Prison without going through the trial of the Zongren Mansion, after all, his current identity, if he went to the Zongren Mansion, it would be more embarrassing, it would be better to be clean in Zhao Prison.

Although the prince of Han is in Zhao Prison, Zhao Prison is the territory of King Qi's mansion. Lord Han lives in a luxurious single room, eating and drinking with three dishes and one soup to take care of, which can be described as a spring breeze.

The reason why Jin Yiwei is so generous to King Han is not only because of the identity of King Han, but also because of King Qi's arrangement.

As soon as he thought of this, King Han felt a little guilty: "Alas, the fourth brother treats me as his own brother, but I have repeatedly targeted the fourth brother before, if I had been more relaxed at the beginning, why would I have made such a fuss." ”

When the King of Han lamented Zhu Gaoxian's loyalty, Zhu Gaoxian had already calculated with the old man how to pit the King of Han.
