Yang Rong said with some embarrassment: "Your Highness, if you want to move the Yellow Book Library from Houhu Lake in Nanjing to Beijing, two months, I'm afraid it won't even be enough to plan your trip."

As a courtier, he understood that this was not the time to complain to Zhu Gaoxian, he should have agreed as if as long as it was something His Highness explained, there was nothing he couldn't do.

But it would take two months to complete the huge project of transferring the Yellow Book Library, which was obviously a bit unrealistic, unless he could invite the old immortal who called for wind and rain to transfer hundreds of thousands of important files out of thin air with a wave of his hand.

However, Yang Rong is not an old immortal, he is just a mortal, but His Royal Highness always arranges errands for him that are not done by people.

Zhu Gaoxian touched his chin, he also knew that his requirements were a little too strict.

He asked, "I'll leave it to you, how soon will it be completed?" ”

Yang Rong thought for a while and said, "One year, the fastest is one year." ”

Zhu Gaoxian nodded: "Yes." ”

Yang Rong was a little surprised, thinking to himself when his Royal Highness was so good at talking, if it was before, His Highness would have slapped him a long time ago.

In fact, it didn't take so long to relocate the Yellow Book Library, which was just a means of negotiation, first shouting out a high price that the other party could not accept, so as to always occupy a favorable position in the negotiation process. According to common sense, the other party should bargain with him.

However, to his surprise, His Highness directly agreed.

Yang Rong fell into deep thought, could it be that His Royal Highness just now said that two months was also a trick for me, hiss...... I thought His Highness was on the first floor, and I was on the third floor, but what I didn't expect was that His Highness was actually on the ninth floor......

High, too high.

Zhu Gaoxian said: "You go to the household department and find Xia Laoshangshu." ”

Yang Rong was a little confused: "What are you looking for Xia Laoshangshu to do?" ”

Zhu Gaoxian said vigorously: "You go to Xia Laoshangshu to settle your money this month." ”

Yang Rong was even more confused: "But it's not yet time to make a fortune......"

"No, you can write a report on your resignation and return to your hometown and submit it to me, you make a report, I will approve the note, and then you can go to the household department to receive the rice and money for the month."

Yang Rong said categorically: "...... Move the Yellow Book Library in two months, no problem! ”

……

Zhu Gaoxian looked at Yang Rong with the same face as Si Li, and sighed: "It's not that this palace deliberately makes it difficult for you, this is also a helpless thing, you must know that this is ...... That means. ”

He stretched out his hand and pointed to the sky, in order to hint at the meaning of the relocation of the Yellow Book Library, it is a heavenly oracle to listen to the heavens.

The oracle of heaven is naturally the oracle of the emperor and the old man.

Yang Rong said solemnly: "Your Majesty...... Why did you suddenly remember this? ”

He was embarrassed to say it directly, His Majesty the Emperor has not been in charge of government for two years, and he suddenly became diligent, this is not like the style of our Yongle master.

According to His Majesty the Emperor's style, as long as it is not very interesting except for fighting.

Zhu Gaoxian groaned: "It's a matter of ...... Emperor Jianwen. ”

Anyway, he is doing things for the old man and satisfying the old man's dying wishes, and he doesn't mind using the old man's reputation to bluff others in the name of the old man.

Yang Rong gasped, and for a while he was a little speechless: "Is Your Majesty still worried about this matter, this is all the old thing of Chen Cang's rotten grain more than ten years ago, Your Majesty is still not dead?" ”

"Aren't you still worried about it, if you can't find Emperor Jianwen, the old man won't be able to sleep for the rest of his life."

Zhu Gaoxian sighed, "After all, they are also uncles and nephews, and the old man is still thinking about this affection, and it is difficult to let go." ”

Yang Rong thought to himself, I can go to you, Your Highness, don't put gold on your face.

Your Majesty is thinking about his uncle and nephew's affection, he is obviously thinking about his nephew's head!

His Majesty the Emperor's last wish in his lifetime is to send himself, Jianwen's nephew, to the Western Heavens!

"But is there anything involved in relocating the Yellow Book Library and finding Emperor Jianwen...... Wait,"

Yang Rong suddenly opened his mouth, "Don't tell me, this is planning to count the population of the whole country and find the 'Emperor Jianwen' who slipped through the net." ”

Zhu Gaoxian nodded: "I really think so." ”

Yang Rong's tongue curled when he spoke: "This, this is not...... Are you kidding! ”

"There are more than 60 million copies of the Yellow Book in the Houhu Yellow Book Library, is it possible that Your Highness, you still have to check the past one by one? Even if you check the past, Emperor Jianwen may not be on it! ”

This is ridiculous!

Yang Rong is so big, he has never heard such a ridiculous order!

If you want to find Emperor Jianwen by checking the population, this difficulty is undoubtedly looking for a needle in a haystack. Transporting the Houhu Yellow Book Library to Beijing was already a costly and extremely difficult project.

And if you want to count all the more than 60 million copies of the Yellow Book Library, moving the Yellow Book Library is simply a small project worth mentioning.

This requires not only huge manpower and material resources, but also incredible manpower!

It would take at least half an hour to carefully check a yellow book and try to find out what was wrong with it. Even for experienced senior officials, they can review up to forty copies in a day.

Even if 500 senior officials were to be recruited and work diligently every day, it would have taken eight years to complete the verification of all the Yellow Books.

Eight years later, that is, the twenty-fifth year of Yongle, will His Majesty the Emperor of our family be able to live to that time? Can he still see Emperor Jianwen arrested?

What's the matter, Tuomeng said to His Majesty: "Your Majesty, you just go all the way, we caught your nephew, what, don't you believe it?" It's okay, let's wipe Emperor Jianwen's neck and send him to be your companion on Huangquan Road! ”

Co-authored the Ming Dynasty spent a lot of money, just to give His Majesty the Emperor a little more comfort, this abacus is also good.

Even if the officials worked diligently for twelve hours a day and worked tirelessly in His Majesty's lifetime, they had finished reviewing more than 60 million yellow books, could they really find Emperor Jianwen?

Emperor Jianwen has been hiding for more than ten years, and His Majesty has not looked for it, but he has not found it, and Hu Hu, who is outside the Ministry of Rites, is now green when he hears the words of Emperor Jianwen, and he can't wait to dig three feet into the ground for the local houses and fields.

This also proves that Emperor Jianwen must have left a back hand to help him hide his identity, there are more than one million black households in the Ming Dynasty, and tens of millions of black households have appeared in the eleventh year of Yongle alone. If Emperor Jianwen plunged into the sea of people, or found a mountain lump to hide for a lifetime, even if the officials of the Ming Dynasty turned over the more than 60 million copies of the yellow book, they would not be able to find a single hair of Emperor Jianwen!

Zhu Gaoxian smiled lightly: "I didn't say it, I have to ask you to check all the Yellow Book Library." ”

"What does Your Highness mean?"

"Officials decentralize, check the yellow books."

Zhu Gaoxian said, "You also know that there are too many black households in the Ming Dynasty, even if the Tax Inspectorate has been checking black taxes and white taxes, and wants everyone to experience the beauty of paying taxes, but there are always some people who are ignorant and hide the population and want to avoid taxes in this way." ”

"Send the officials out, while checking the black households, while investigating the traces of Emperor Jianwen, finding Jianwen is a trivial matter, and checking the population is the big one."

Zhu Di is not a fool who only knows how to waste national strength, and Zhu Gaoxian will not seem to be in pain to find Jianwen with the strength of the whole country.

The old man asked Zheng He to go to the West, not only to go to sea to find Jianwen, but also to promote the national prestige of the Ming Dynasty overseas, as well as to investigate the situation of overseas countries and foreign trade.

Hu Hu of the Ministry of Rites made secret visits all over the country, mainly to investigate local lawlessness and act as the emperor's eyes and ears to visit the people.

In the final analysis, Zhu Gaoxian's relocation of the Yellow Book and the verification of the Yellow Book were for the purpose of surveying the population and increasing taxes.

Taxation is the main structure of the economy in any dynasty and any country. The easiest way to make the country rich is to raise taxes and impose violent taxes. However, if this is the case, it is easy to cause civil unrest.

And Zhu Gaoxian wants to raise taxes, but he doesn't want the tax amount to rise, so he has to start with the number and find out all the black households.

Since the establishment of the Tax Supervision Institute, although the tax revenue of the Ming Dynasty has increased more than ten times, it has been spread to the people, and the amount of taxes levied on individuals has not only not increased, but has been declining, liberating the pressure on people to pay taxes.

Until today, in fact, the amount of taxes imposed by the imperial court on ordinary people basically does not affect the lives of ordinary people. Under the two-tiered jurisdiction of the Tax Supervision Yuan and the Tax Supervision Department, there is basically no illegal practice of arbitrary collection and extortion and illegal tax collection by local officials.

Even if the local officials raised the tax privately, the money would not fall into their pockets, but would be levied by the tax superintendent as a black tax. In this way, not only can you not get money, but also ruin your reputation and career, who wants to do such a thing.

To deal with the wicked, we have to use this more evil method.

Despite this, there are still too many people who are unwilling to record their names on the list of the imperial court, and bribe the officials of the yamen in order to achieve the purpose of tax evasion.

Even if they pay taxes, it doesn't affect their lives, but they still don't want to pay taxes.

"With all due respect, Your Highness, it's not like the imperial court hasn't tried to thoroughly investigate the black household, but the effect is ...... Very little. Yang Rong hesitated.

He is a pragmatist, and before doing things, he has to take into account practical problems.

"In fact, it is not difficult to solve the problem of the Yellow Book, it only takes eight words, the rewards and punishments are clear, and the grace and power are both given."

Zhu Gaoxian said vigorously, "Reward, is the official under the imperial court, according to the official found black household merits divided into twenty levels, each level of rewards are different, and according to the level of rewards, whether it is a dry work, or a reward of silver, are the best means to motivate people." Among the 20 levels, the highest level of reward can be directly promoted to the eighteen tax inspectors from the three products of the tax officer. Each province can have at most one highest-ranking official, who is the official who has the most black households and the most taxed in the province. Until a new top level appears, which can replace the position of the original tax officer. ”

"Punishment is that if an official involved in the Yellow Book and Taxation violates the law, conceals it and does not report it, and accepts bribes to help people who try to evade taxes and avoid taxes to commit illegal acts, according to the set of the Liangjing Tax Supervision Institute and the Eighteen Provincial Tax Supervision Divisions, the crime will be increased by ten degrees, and they will be beheaded! There is no such thing as beheading the prisoner, after the government, the province, and the imperial court will review it in turn, and wait for the autumn to ask for the beheading, and kill on the spot! ”

"Envy and power, not only to give some sweetness, to draw a big cake that can make their eyes red, but also to use torture to warn everyone, to prevent some people from fishing in troubled waters, to wait for work!"

……

Zhu Di thought about it for most of the night, and now his mind was full of his "dear" Jianwen nephew, and he was thinking about whether he should apologize first, or catch up first, or sprinkle more cumin to make Jianwen imperial barbecue......

Ahem.

Zhu Di settled down and understood that no matter how much he thought about it, it would be impossible for his fourth son to send Emperor Jianwen over in the middle of the night.

But because he missed his nephew too much, he had insomnia, and he couldn't sleep at all, so he settled down and remembered that he hadn't simulated Zhu Gaoxian's ordinary life.

Halfway through this simulation, he was so excited to mention the traces of Emperor Jianwen that he almost forgot about this stubble.

Fortunately, the emulator can continue the simulation even if it is paused in the middle of the process, and you don't need to watch ads to unlock the rest of the content.

[After learning the content of this letter, Mu Cheng, the Duke of Qianguo, resolutely agreed to follow you to rebel. 】

[It has nothing to do with the position, it has nothing to do with the risk, whether this letter is true or fake, even if the Qianguo Mansion may be destroyed after the defeat, Mu Cheng doesn't care. 】

[As the son of Taizu Yizi and the son of Mu Ying, King of Qianning, Mu Cheng abides by the promise of the Mu family and the great grandfather. Everything in the Qianguo Mansion was given by the great grandfather, and if he wanted to destroy all this because of the great grandfather, he would not care. 】

[The Yongle Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, after all, failed to return triumphantly after the fifth northern expedition, he died of illness in Yumuchuan, and the crown prince Zhu Gao Chi Ling succeeded to the throne before the Hongxi Emperor, and at the same time ordered the Ningyang Marquis Chen Mao and Yangwu Marquis Xue Lu to lead the original cavalry to gallop back to Beijing for three thousand miles. At the same time, he transferred his henchmen to Nanjing and took charge of the military power in Nanjing. 】

[Emperor Hong Xi played such a hand, of course, he was not preventing your rebellion in advance, he was guarding against your second brother, Zhu Gaoxu, the prince of Han. 】

[It's just that Zhu Gaoxu, the prince of Han, is a smart person, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he immediately became honest in Shandong. 】

[Emperor Hong Xi prepared so many deployments, and in the end, because King Han calmed down, there was no need to come to power. 】
