Emperor Wanli waved his hand and said, "Mr. Zhang, you listen to me first." First of all, Liu Haojia has done a lot of things for me and has come up with a lot of ideas, which I think everyone knows. But I never rewarded him, so I felt a little guilty. ”

Zhang Juzheng and a few people think that Liu Haojia has already been promoted to the test hundred households, why is it not a reward? However, when they thought about it, he helped Emperor Wanli get so much silver and came up with so many ideas, and it was really impossible to take a hundred households with a try, so they didn't say anything to express their acquiescence.

Zhang Han arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, you must know that the thunder, rain and dew are all Jun's grace!" I don't think he's worth it! ”

When Emperor Wanli heard this, he secretly said in his heart, if I don't give you a promotion, see if you will care! However, he knew that this could not fool these people, so he continued: "Another one, Liu Haojia invented cowpox this time, which can be said to be countless living people and immeasurable merits!" With cowpox, my Daming can be promoted everywhere step by step, and if it is far away, maybe Daming can fundamentally eradicate smallpox and never recur! From a closer look, those who die every year by planting human pox don't have to die! In this way, how much population will be added to Daming every year? This is no worse than the great work of expanding the territory! That's why I wanted to reward him heavily, and this time I thought of the idea of giving a fief! ”

Zhang Siwei said eagerly: "Your Majesty, there are many ways to reward your courtiers, the court can give him gold and silver wealth, the mansion is beautiful, and even the court can give him the title of marquis and duke, but the precedent of the fief is really not open!" ”

Emperor Wanli raised his hand to stop Zhang Siwei and said: "I also thought of this, so I told him that his fief was only given to him alone, not hereditary, and he will be taken back by the imperial court after his death!" ”

After Emperor Wanli finished speaking, he looked at several pavilion elders proudly, waiting for their judgment. And Zhang Juzheng and others were also stunned! They didn't expect Emperor Wanli to have such a backhand! And they thought about it carefully, if this was the case, it would be almost no harm to Da Ming, so they didn't know what to say for a while. They all fell silent!

At this time, Emperor Wanli said leisurely: "And I thought, this fief is given to Liu Hao's family, and what he has in his family is money, maybe he will gather the displaced people to build a Zhuangzi or something!" If the court takes back the fief when he dies, maybe there will be an extra town in this vacant land! ”

Zhang Juzheng and a few people actually felt dizzy when they heard this! They never thought that Emperor Wanli would have such a plan! Is this preparing for an empty glove white wolf?

But when they thought about it carefully, they also felt that Emperor Wanli's idea was very reasonable! Anyone who has a fiefdom in their family always has to build something! Even if it's for the sake of face, you have to build a small village! If it was really as he thought, Liu Haojia could really build a village, and at least he would accept one or two thousand displaced people, wouldn't this reduce the burden on the local government? If this method is popularized......

Fortunately, Zhang Juzheng is superior in the end, and he is the first to wake up among several elders! He thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, what if he re-expropriates his fiefdom and abuses the people?" ”

Emperor Wanli smiled and said: "Let's not talk about anything else, if he picks up the homeless people and knocks on the bones and sucks the marrow, won't you run away as a homeless?" More than ten miles to the left and right, can't you escape? And I made it clear to him that everything he did in his fiefdom must be in accordance with the law and regulations, and if there was a mistake, I would punish him according to the law, or even take back his fief directly! ”

Zhang Juzheng and the others were speechless for a while when they heard this! They didn't expect that Emperor Wanli had already made the patch very firmly! But that doesn't stop them from thinking differently! Sure enough, I heard Zhang Han say in a low voice: "There are still many poor mountains and bad rivers in my Ming Dynasty, it is better to seal all the nobles in the past, and wait until a few decades later, it will be villages and towns one by one!" ”

But without waiting for Zhang Juzheng and others to speak, Emperor Wanli had already said righteously: "This matter must not be done!" I gave Liu Haojia a fief just to do an experiment, in which we can observe the gains and losses. Therefore, when there is no clear discovery of whether this method is flawed, it can never be promoted! ”

Zhang Juzheng listened to it with great heart, and felt that the emperor had grown up all of a sudden! And he is inclined to reform in the first place, so it is easier for him to take over and hear the explanation. So he nodded and said, "What Your Majesty thinks is the real words of seeking the country!" ”

Emperor Wanli said proudly when he heard this: "And if you can release the feudal seal in the future, I will not seal the honorable nobles in the country, but seal them outside the frontier!" How much land they have to take depends on their own ability! ”

Zhang Siwei hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this matter must not be allowed!" If they are allowed to garrison troops abroad, and they will one day be full-fledged, won't it lead wolves into the house! And this is easy to provoke side provocations! ”

Emperor Wanli said: "This is just my idea, we can discuss it slowly in the future and improve it slowly." It's not about rolling it out now. ”

After receiving the explanation, everyone felt a lot more relaxed. But then they felt sick again! Relative to them, they don't like this drastic change even more, or if there is any change, they prefer to be in their own hands!

Especially for Liu Haojia, including Zhang Juzheng, he is very vigilant! So Zhang Juzheng plans to work hard again, ready to cut off Liu Haojia's fief, or let Emperor Wanli know that he is the one who controls everything!

So he thought for a while and said, "Bian Fu, not a word was written on the holy decree of what you just said!" Your approach makes Lao Chen feel that you probably don't plan to implement your idea just now, so Lao Chen feels that the matter of giving Liu Haojia a fief still needs to be discussed! ”

Emperor Wanli stood up with a cold face and said, "I did it on purpose! ”

After speaking, he picked up a holy decree from the table and handed it to Zhang Juzheng. Zhang Juzheng and the others saw this holy decree when they came in, but they didn't think it was important and ignored it. Now it seems that what is written in this decree is the most important thing!

Zhang Juzheng took the holy decree and looked at it, the first half of the holy decree was exactly the same as the holy decree that gave Liu Haojia a reward, but a lot of text was added to the second half, and what was written on it was similar to what Emperor Wanli had just said, or even more detailed. And there is also a red approval from the celebrant on it!

Seeing this batch of red, Zhang Juzheng suddenly remembered that the current eunuch Bingbi is still Feng Bao, according to normal speaking, he must have to ventilate with himself when such a big event happens, why did he quietly criticize the red on it?
