Zuo Guangdou also suddenly stepped out of the ranks and knelt down.

"Your Majesty loves the people of the world and does not bear the suffering of the people, and the original intention is excellent! However, the ministers will never agree! Death to the minister! ”

Gu Bingqian knelt down: "The old minister seconded the proposal!" No matter what kind of reform His Majesty has made before, the old minister will go all out and resolutely implement it, but this one, the minister will never dare to agree! ”

"Death to the courtier!"

……

The ministers of the palace knelt on the ground and spoke out one after another!

Principal Zhu You sighed.

"Everyone, please get up and listen to what I have to say."

Yang Lian said: "Your Majesty, please say, the ministers listen, if Your Majesty does not take back the order, the ministers will not dare to get up!" ”

Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but laugh, he couldn't help but do anything about this stubborn old man.

"Now my Ming clan has reached hundreds of thousands, and in time, it will reach a million, and the imperial court's finances will be overwhelmed, and if you want to reform, you must reform more thoroughly, I have to set an example, and stop the royal family's offerings first, before you can remove the offerings of the vassal royal family......"

Yang Lian said loudly: "Your Majesty, the old minister understands what His Majesty is worried about, Your Majesty is for the sake of the people of the world, and he is really a generation of saints who will never come out, but the old minister thinks that the offerings of the vassal kings and others can be removed, and the offerings of the royal family, the ministers and others dare not agree!" ”

Zhu Youxiao was stunned.

This old man plays so well with double standards?

The vassal kings and clans present all had wry smiles on their faces, and their hearts were worried!

If all of them are canceled, many clansmen may not be able to live their lives anymore!

Zuo Guangdou said: "The minister agrees with what Yang Yushi said, no matter what His Majesty says, but if he says that he wants to cancel the royal worship, even if His Majesty says that it will be a day and a night, even if His Majesty calls King Xian to say it together, the ministers will never agree!" ”

Zhang Ruitu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, also said: "Your Majesty, Yang Yushi, Zuo Yushi said, the ministers agree, the heaven and earth monarchs are pro-teachers, and the ministers do not agree. ”

Zhu You's head is big.

A long sigh: "Okay! In that case, I am not reluctant, and you all stand up and speak. ”

All the courtiers were overjoyed.

They all thanked each other and got up.

Zhu Youxiao said: "However, this matter of the clan still needs to be resolved, and it cannot be delayed for a long time." ”

The ministers nodded.

Zhu Youxiao continued: "As for the royal family's offerings, there also needs to be a quota and system, not to ask for too much, and not to spend too much people's fat and people's anointment!" King Xian originally proposed to cancel the offering, but the opposition of Er and others was too strong, and I had to take a compromise approach. ”

Yang Lian and the others are all smiling, and the opinions of the Son of Heaven and the Immortal King were vetoed, this sense of accomplishment is really comfortable!

"I want to set rules for future generations, and from the beginning of my reign, the royal family must not use the funds of the imperial court arbitrarily as before, without distinguishing between family and country."

Everyone nodded, this is a good thing, the disadvantage of the Son of Heaven diverting the funds of the user department has existed since ancient times, if it can be standardized, it will be a good thing for the imperial court!

Zhu Youxiao smiled and continued: "You should know that the total value of the industry in Dahuangzhuang is extremely high, of which I account for 40% of the shares, Brother Yu accounts for 30% of the shares, and Wei Daban accounts for 10% of the shares!" ”

Zhu Youxiao sighed with emotion on his face, "In order to support my clan reform, Royal Brother Huang Boda is willing to give up this share worth tens of millions of taels, and it is a steady stream of huge benefits!" He gave me all the shares! ”

Everyone was in an uproar!

At the same time, I couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration in my heart!

Such a big wealth, the virtuous king said not to want it, what a mind!

What a virtuous king!

Wei Zhongxian knelt down and said loudly: "Your Majesty, 10% of the slave maid's shares are also donated to Your Majesty, and the slave and maid also fully support Your Majesty's reform!" ”

Zhu Youxiao laughed: "The big companion has a heart, and I will redeem your shares and buy them back." ”

Wei Zhongxian said categorically: "No, these share capital were originally the illegal gains of the slave maid, and they are considered to be returned to the original owner, and the slave and maid will never want any compensation, please fulfill it Your Majesty!" ”

"Good! Good! Thank you so much! Get up! ”

Wei Zhongxian stood up proudly.

A smile on your face!

Since then, I, Wei Zhongxian, am truly true! Dignified! I'm a new person, and I've made a cut from before!

Zhu Youxiao said: "After canceling the support of the clan, King Xian proposed to raise my Zhu clan with Rhubarb Village, and I took out 40% of the remaining 50% of the shares, and made the price for the clan to buy the shares and enjoy the dividends, which can be regarded as self-reliance, as for the remaining share, it is set up as a relief fund for the poor clan, and another 30% of the annual dividends will be distributed to all the clans!" ”

"In this way, even if the Daming Sect is hundreds of thousands, I believe that this income will be able to support it!"

The vassal kings were all bright-eyed.

The ministers are also happy to be colorful!

"What a whimsical idea! Admire! ”

…… x200+

Zhu Youxiao continued: "King Xian proposed, after canceling the support for the royal family, the imperial court as a subsidy, the salt and iron will be handed over to the royal family monopoly, of course, this income is also included in the benefits of the clan, in addition, the salt and iron technology of my Rhubarb Village is advanced, high quality and low price, such as salt, now the market price has almost dropped to the original twenty percent, and the people of the whole Ming Dynasty will no longer be able to eat salt because of the price!" ”

"As for steel, the original Dahuangzhuang Iron and Steel Factory was the leading iron factory in the Ming Dynasty, and the farm tools and weapons it made were all of high quality and low price, what do you think?"

Yang Lian said: "The minister seconded the proposal!" Salt and iron are related to national policy and people's livelihood, controlled by His Majesty, and can benefit all the people to the greatest extent, and the minister agrees! ”

Shao Fuzhong, the secretary of the household department, appeared in court, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Your Majesty, the original income of the household department, salt and iron accounted for a lot, if it is all attributed to the royal family, I am afraid that the income and expenditure of the imperial court will be uneven." ”

Many ministers chimed in.

Zhu Youxiao smiled: "What Shao Qing said is reasonable! I have thought about this matter for a long time, if it is said that all the properties of the royal family are taxed? ”

Everyone was stunned.

The emperor pays taxes?

This is a strange story for the ages!

Zhu Youxiao said: "Every year, the property of Rhubarb Village and the royal family can reach an extremely spectacular amount, if it is taxed, it will be greatly filled with households, I have long had the intention of tax reform, and now I have canceled the show of talent, the preferential exemption of people, and the people also pay taxes according to the rules, it makes no sense, I and the ministers do not have to pay taxes!" ”

"I think that everyone should be treated equally, the officials and gentry should pay the grain as one, and the Son of Heaven should set an example, and everyone in the world must pay taxes for the country!"

Everyone was stunned.

Zhu Youxiao said: "This matter will be presided over by Shao Qing, and the cabinet and various ministries will work together to negotiate a reasonable tax rate as soon as possible!" ”

"Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty! Banzai! Hooray! ”

Everyone knelt down sincerely.

Zhu Youxiao laughed.

"In addition, the imperial court no longer supports the clan vassal kings, and accordingly all kinds of restrictions on the clan are lifted, allowing them to fend for themselves, allowing talented people among them to join the army, participate in the imperial examinations, and become officials, etc., and cancel other unreasonable restrictions!"

"If so, let's disperse the dynasty, King Fu and the prince of Tang will stay, I have something to say."

The retainers dispersed.
