"Your Majesty, recently, the imperial historians of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China have impeached Liang Chengda, Li Zhixiao and others for being arrogant and brutalizing Zhongliang, and demanding heavy responsibility from the imperial court."

Xue Ji looked embarrassed and said softly.

Like Zhao Rushu, he was considered Shi Miyuan's henchman. Now that Zhao Rushu has resigned and Liang Chengda has been impeached, they are also nervous.

"These people impeached by the officials, let Dali Temple investigate it well, those who commit the most heinous crimes, and those who fish and flesh the people, still have to give an explanation to the people of the world."

Zhao Hong pointed to the pile of folds on the table and smiled softly.

"Xue Qing, Hu Qing, there are also some excerpts to impeach you, saying that you are attached to Shi Miyuan and corrupt the law. Would you like to take a look? ”

fell into the well, Zhao Hong hates such characters. These people impeached by the officials are all Shi Miyuan's henchmen. But it is still necessary to knock and knock these people and get rid of the first evil.

"Your Majesty, See!"

Xue Ji and Hu Yu were so frightened that they quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed again and again.

"Get up. I won't pay attention to these twists and turns. As long as the Qing family remembers that they must love themselves and do things faithfully in the future. ”

Zhao Hong was gentle and kind, and motioned for the two to get up.

Under the rule of Zhao Kuo, Shi Miyuan was in power, and there were few clean civil and military personnel in the Manchu Dynasty. If you really check it, I'm afraid the court should be empty.

Xue Ji is used to being submissive and submissive under Shi Miyuan, and it is not easy to take the initiative to say things.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Xue Ji and Hu Yu stood up tremblingly, both sweating on their foreheads, and returned to their chairs and sat down.

"From the first year of Xingqing, the imperial court should clarify the rule of officials and strictly prohibit greed for ink. Ladies and gentlemen, this is my will, and I strictly order all state capitals to strictly prohibit corruption and accepting bribes. Let's write off the previous things. But from now on, if you do it again, I will not spare it! ”

Zhao Hong looked at Xue Ji and Hu Yu who were wiping their sweat, and said with a straight face.

"Obey the order!"

Several ministers, including Zhen Deok-so, stood up and bowed together.

It seems that the strict crackdown on corruption is the first fire burned by the new dynasty.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I grew up in the market since I was a child, up to the princes and nobles, down to the peddlers and pawns, and in my spare time, I gathered to fight tea, cocks, and crickets. For the sake of the so-called fame, the competition is competitive, the gambling is closed, and the trend of malaise is all over the younger generation. ”

Zhao Hong said with a cold gaze.

"It's understandable to raise crickets, pets, drink tea, and nourish your mood. However, if gambling is turned off, it will encourage the trend of sloppiness, but it will never be allowed. Xue Xiang, ladies and gentlemen, do you know what to do? ”

"Your Ministers obey!"

The ministers knew it and nodded yes together.

It seems that the ban on tea fighting, cockfighting, and fighting crickets should be the second decree of the imperial court.

"The second is foot binding. Willow waist lotus step, delicate and pitiful, all bullshit! How cruel is it to squeeze and deform people's bones, not to mention the pain, and not to mention the fact that they can't walk fast? Which perverted beast has passed down the rules? ”

Zhao Hong's face immediately became gloomy.

"Ladies and gentlemen, what are your best plans for all these evils?"

Zhao Hong kicked the ball to several ministers.

He can't do everything, and then he won't be tired to death.

"Your Majesty, the imperial court may issue a decree strictly prohibiting tea fights, cockfights, cricket fights, and foot binding, and violators will be punished by the law!"

Jin Deok-so spoke first.

The master of self-cultivation and self-cultivation is of course not used to the bad habits of fighting crickets and binding feet.

He's not the perverted beast, and certainly won't support these bad habits.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is better to formulate punishment rules and impose heavy penalties, such as those who bind their feet to collect a heavy tax of "foot binding", and the same is true for cockfighters and crickets, and those who violate the law are not allowed to participate in the imperial examination for several years, and they are not allowed to be officials, etc. ”

Xue Ji's brain teaser turned sharply, and he immediately replenished a lot.

"Your Majesty, the law forbids it, and those who violate it will be severely punished. The minister seconded the truth and Xue Xiang! ”

For fear of being considered a perverted beast by the emperor, Hu Yu hurriedly followed.

"Your Majesty, the minister seconded Xue Xiang and Zhengong!"

Xuan Xuan nodded in praise. Anyway, he doesn't change his mind, and he's not a beast.

Needless to say, this is the second fire of the emperor's new policy.

"Good! The secretaries discussed it, considered it more thoroughly, drafted a note as soon as possible, publicized it in the newspapers, and promulgated it to the world as soon as possible. ”

There is great power in numbers, especially these governors, all of whom are good at governing the people as officials, and their wisdom should not be underestimated.

"Ladies and gentlemen, my Great Song Dynasty has accumulated many disadvantages, the depreciation of the Huizi, the soaring prices, and the people are miserable. I want to implement a new policy on Jiangnan East Road and train a new army as a model for one place. ”

Zhao Hong looked at the four humerus ministers and frowned.

Shi Miyuan has been in power for nearly 20 years, monopolizing the dynasty and holding great power, but he has always yielded and compromised with Jin, and the people have been miserable. When Shi Miyuan was in power, he printed a large number of new huizi, no longer exchanging gold, silver, and copper coins, but only exchanging new huizi for old huizi, and discounted the old huizi by half. As a result, the price of the currency fell, prices soared, and the people were struggling to make a living. During the Jiading period, the Song and Jin used soldiers, and the Southern Song Dynasty issued Huizi banknotes, which amounted to 140 million yuan.

According to rough estimates, the old and new clubs circulating in the market are about 167 million.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid that the only way to do this is to "weigh up", change the old and new associations, and act every three years. However, the flood of our dynasty has been the accumulation of disasters over the years. If you want to get rid of the accumulated evils, I am afraid it will not take a year and a half. ”

Xue Ji shook his head, his face was full of wrinkles, and his face was full of sadness.

"'Weimention' means that the Southern Song Dynasty banknotes are issued too much, and the banknotes are depreciated, and the method of 'weighing and mentioning' is used to stabilize the value of the currency, return the banknotes, and reduce the circulation of banknotes. The specific method is to reserve copper and iron money, and when the price of paper money is reduced, use official money to buy paper money, use gold, silver, and official land to exchange paper money, use dumu, tea, salt and other negotiable securities, and even sell officials to exchange paper money, and so on.

To put it bluntly, there is too much money printed, inflation, and paper money has to be withdrawn to stabilize prices.

In the final analysis, it is the stubborn disease of "three redundancies" and many years of war that have impoverished the country.

"Xue Qing, Zhenqing, next year is the change of borders, you must prepare first, the quality of the new meeting must be guaranteed, set the law, eliminate counterfeit money, and prepare for next year's border change."

Zhao Hong also frowned, and said it in a deep voice.

The Song Dynasty banknote meeting had a "boundary exchange" system. The term of use of the meeting is three years, and it is called "Ichikai". After expiration, you have to go to the government office and exchange the old banknotes for new ones. When exchanged, the official will look at it a priori, which is called "outfield"; After entering, it is inspected again, which is called the "infield". Twice to confirm the genuine currency before exchanging it for a new banknote.

All the ministers received the order, but they were all worried.

How easy is it to eradicate the proliferation of paper money?

The third fire of the emperor may not be easy to burn.

"Zhuqing, Jiangnan East Road implements a new policy, do you think, who can take over as Jiangnan East Road's pacification envoy, and who can take over the post of commander-in-chief?"

Since Jiangnan East Road was chosen as the first choice for the implementation of the new policy, of course, officials should be dispatched to ensure the implementation of the new policy.

Several ministers glanced at each other, but they were all silent.

Jiangnan East Road wants to implement a new policy, and there is no need to ask about land annexation and corruption. Whoever goes to Jiangnan East Road will risk the condemnation of the world and become the target of public criticism.

Several people thought about it, but they all felt as if no one could do it.

Of course, they themselves will never nominate themselves.

"A few Qing families, what do you think, what do you think of Wang Gang, the prefect of Shaoxing Prefecture?"

Zhao Hong no longer hesitated, and made a decision directly.

New people, new style. Don't use suspicious people, don't suspect people. I have dealt with this gentleman in Shaoxing Huiji, and I feel that I have some talents.

"Your Majesty. Wang Gang is a well-known person with a good reputation and an outstanding official reputation, so he can be worthy of this position. ”

Sure enough, the four of them looked at each other, and Xue Ji immediately played.

"Your Majesty, Wang Gang is up to the task, and the minister seconded it!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

Several other people took a stand together.

"Since the secretary and the others have no objections, this matter is decided."

Zhao Hong nodded, and then said:

"Hu Mengyu of Dali Temple, loyal and honest, has a rich resume, dares to do anything, and can be the general of Jiangning. I don't know what you think? ”

"Hu Pingshi is a handsome person in the court, and he is up to this post."

Jin Deok-so spoke first. He has a great friendship with Hu Mengyu, Hu Mengyu has the courage to take responsibility, is honest and honest, and is actually a court official.

The emperor's vision is good!

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Xue Ji also followed.

Hu Mengyu, who has nothing to do, really has no need to offend the emperor.

Hu Mengyu of Dali Temple was appointed as the commander-in-chief of Jiangning, and no one was restrained. This hot potato, an errand that offends people, as long as it is not yourself.

"Let Wang Gang and Hu Mengyu, as well as the Huijizhi County Board of Directors, enter the palace to face the saint, I want to talk to them and study it personally."

Thinking of the ten-year appointment with Wang Gang, Zhao Hong couldn't help but smile knowingly.

As for this board of directors, it seems that he is a talented person who can govern Huiji County in an orderly manner, and he can be reused.

The new law is earth-shattering, and the places that have not implemented the new policy must maintain stability. Allowing the board of directors to serve as the prefect of Shaoxing can also maintain the consistency and continuity of the Shaoxing government's decrees.

"Your Majesty's accession to the throne is another year, but you want to amnesty the world and show the emperor's grace?"

Xue Ji asked as usual.

In the name of benevolence, the ancient emperors often pardoned criminals. For example, when the emperor ascends the throne, changes the name of the era, establishes an empress, establishes a crown prince, etc., or encounters a major natural disaster, a pardon is often issued. Generally, when the new emperor ascends the throne or there is a major celebration in the imperial palace, a group of criminals are usually pardoned and the world is amnesty.

If you want to come to Zhao Hong's enthronement, it is no exception.

"Amnesty to the world, think of beauty!"

Zhao Hong was stunned and smiled coldly.

"Isn't it a blasphemy against justice and the law to grant the world an amnesty and let the perpetrators go unpunished? If that were the case, wouldn't the victims and their families want to cry without tears? Rather than pardoning the culprits, it is better to give some comfort to the families of the victims. Put the cart before the horse, I don't know what to say! ”

Zhao Hong pondered for a moment, and then continued:

"Exempt the victim's family from paying taxes for two years, what do you think?"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

The ministers nodded in agreement.

The whole world belongs to your old man, and if you say how to do it, of course you will do it.

However, the emperor's ruthlessness is extraordinary.

"Your Majesty, there is one thing that the old minister doesn't know whether to talk about or not?"

Xue Ji unconsciously stood up again.

"Xue Xiang, sit down, if you have something to say, just say it!"

Zhao Hong waved his hand and motioned for Xue Ji to sit down.

"Your Majesty, now that the New Year is approaching, the twentieth day of the first month is the birthday of the Queen Mother. I wonder what His Majesty is going to do? ”

Xue Ji said cautiously.

"Your Majesty, my Great Song Dynasty governs the country with filial piety, Your Majesty has become the Son of Heaven of the Great Song Dynasty, you must not be rash, let the people of the world criticize, and miss the world's major events."

Compared with Xue Ji's caution, Zhen Dexiu is much more direct.

"Your Majesty think twice!"

Xuan Xuan and Hu Yu both bowed their hands.

"What Zhu Qing said is true. The past is gone, and one always has to look forward. ”

Zhao Hong nodded and pondered:

"Now is the period of the first emperor's funeral, and the ministers can congratulate the queen mother on her birthday, but it is not appropriate to move too much. As for the Queen Mother, I will go there. ”

The prime minister can hold a ship in his belly, and as an emperor, he must be able to cruise an aircraft carrier.

Thinking about it, last year's birthday of Empress Dowager Yang Guizhi didn't seem to invite him. And on his birthday, it seems that Yang Guizhi was not invited.

"Your Majesty, what should you do with Yang Gu Yang Shi, the two nephews of the Queen Mother? Do you want to be added as the king of the county? ”

Zhen Deok-so frowned and continued to please.

This pair of squires has a bad plot, they should be the head of the East City, where can they be promoted to the rank of knight?

"You don't have any jokes. Feng Yanggu is the envoy of the Fengguo Army, and Yang Shi is the envoy of the Baoning Army. Let them keep to themselves, and don't get into trouble. ”

Speaking of the Yang brothers, Zhao Hong couldn't help but think of Yang Yi. I don't know, is she in the palace at the moment?
