The next day, the sky was light.

Forbidden City, Fengtian Temple.

Zhu Yuanzhang wore a golden crown, a coiled dragon collar, narrow sleeves, and a five-clawed golden dragon robe, and sat on the dragon chair.

The demeanor is solemn and majestic.

Prince Zhu Biao stood on his side.

Outside the temple.

The officials were dressed in official robes, stepped on golden boots, and walked into the court.

At the gate of the court, hundreds of officials arranged their official robes and adjusted their positions.

With the shout of 'Shang Chao', the civil and military officials lined up in two rows and walked into the Fengtian Palace.

Hundreds of officials worship.

The report of the Ministry of Books and various ministries and cabinets has been completed.

Zhu Yuanzhang pressed his hands on the imperial case, overlooking the hundred officials.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I had a dream last night, dreaming that our people in the Ming Dynasty were starving and displaced..."

The civil and military officials were confused when they heard this.

One by one you look at me, I look at you.

I don't understand what the emperor suddenly means by saying this dream?

Under the governance of Emperor Hongwu, the Ming Dynasty was thriving, and all kinds of waste were waiting to be revived.

The people live and work in peace and contentment, and the six animals prosper.

How can there be a tragic situation of starvation and death?

It must be a warning that the emperor wants them to be prepared for danger in times of peace, right?

There's no need to say it's so miserable!

The officials thought about each other, concentrating and calming, and did not dare to make a sound.

At this time.

Li Shanchang, who was standing in the front row of civil officials, frowned slightly.

Faintly aware of the hint of danger.

He had already guessed that the emperor said that this dream was paving the way for the public land to subsidize the fortune.

Now it's time for the show.

Really...

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the hundreds of officials in the audience with a solemn face, and his voice was like a bell:

"In the dream, the people knelt down and begged me to return their land."

"Then I asked them, 'Where are all the fields you have cultivated?'

"Those people told me that in the fifth year of Hongwu, the imperial court gave the official grandfather public land, and the public land was exempt from taxes, but their taxes were increased by 30%."

"The people's income from farming was very meager, and after adding taxes, they couldn't make ends meet, so they had to sell their fields cheaply to the officials."

"So, they made tenants for the officials, and they also saved the court from paying taxes."

"Originally, life was good, but these officials increased their rent every year, and they were overwhelmed, so they had to leave their hometowns and beg for a living."

"In my dream, the people who lost their fields knelt in front of me and begged me to return their fields, which was a miserable thing!"

Speaking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang stroked his forehead and looked at the hundreds of officials under the rank worriedly:

"I was awakened by this dream, and I couldn't sleep all night, and my heart was worried."

"Ladies and gentlemen, who can interpret this dream for me?"

The words fell.

The solemn hall can be heard by falling needles.

The civil and military officials lowered their heads one after another, not understanding what Zhu Yuanzhang meant by his words, and they didn't even dare to gasp.

Seeing that the hundred officials hung their heads one by one, not daring to reply, Zhu Yuanzhang asked again:

"Ladies and gentlemen, who can stand up and interpret my dreams?"

There was still silence.

Looked at.

Zhu Yuanzhang's face became more and more ugly, and his tone was already displeased:

"Why didn't Zhongqing say a word?"

"Could it be that this dream of mine stumped Zhongqing?!"

"Could it be that without Liu Bowen in the court, I don't have a minister who has an idea?!"

Seeing that the officials were looking at their noses and noses one by one, Zhu Yuanzhang became more and more annoyed the more he looked at it.

The head is bruised, so he simply names himself.

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Xu Da, who was standing in the first row of generals:

"Xu Aiqing, you come to help me solve this dream."

Hearing this, Xu Da was stunned.

As the god of war of the Ming Dynasty, the commander of millions.

The war is unambiguous, but let him interpret his dreams, isn't this Zhang Fei's embroidery!

This should be the work of Liu Bowen and Li Shanchang.

You Zhu Chongba are looking for me, your head is funny, right?

But he had already been named, and Xu Da went out of class and said:

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks... Dream this thing, is already ethereal, I think my Ming Dynasty is thriving under the leadership of His Majesty. ”

"I'm afraid... Your Majesty thinks too much about it, so he has this dream. ”

"Your Majesty's state affairs are heavy, you should pay attention to the health of the dragon!"

Get!

Xu Da instigated for a long time, all of which was nonsense, which meant that he didn't say anything.

After Xu Da finished speaking, he returned to the train and wiped the sweat on his forehead.

Fuck.

The emperor's mind is twisted and turned, let him guess, it is better to let him lead the troops to kill the enemy.

How can you be so tired!

However, he was named, and Xu Da could only fool around a few words, trying to get by.

OK.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't embarrass him anymore.

After Xu Da finished speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly.

looked at Li Shanchang, who was standing at the top of the civil service.

Li Shanchang's eyes were anxious and his mouth was fast, and without waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang's roll call, he took the initiative to go out and play:

"The old minister is willing to dare to explain this dream to His Majesty."

All the officials looked at Li Shanchang with curiosity.

You must know that the Korean Gong was at home as early as the fifth year of Hongwu, and did not ask about the government.

Although there was something important, Zhu Yuanzhang also asked him to come out and ask for advice.

But after all, he is an idle person.

There's no need to work so hard!

"So good! Although the Korean Duke is idle at home, he can share my worries, and he is really a model for my Ming officials. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang stroked his beard, and there was an undetectable smile in his eyes.

Here it comes!

This old fox generally does not take a position easily, and his statement shows that he already has a plan.

"Baimu, then you will help me interpret the dream!"

Li Shanchang bowed and said loudly:

"Your Majesty, as the saying goes, you think about it every day and dream about it at night."

"The old minister guesses that His Majesty must be worried about giving hundreds of officials public land to subsidize Yulu."

As Li Shan's long words fell, there was a slight commotion in the court.

Early this morning, hundreds of officials saw that the Korean public who had been at home for many years participated in the court meeting.

I knew that today's emperor convened the ministers to discuss the matter, and the matter was not trivial.

Now Li Shanchang said a word.

It turns out that the emperor is worried about this matter!

But what does the matter of Gongtian's subsidy have to do with the emperor's strange dream?

The people are starving and displaced, what does it have to do with the public land?

Now although the hundred officials know the reason for the emperor's dream, they don't know what medicine he sells in his gourd.

They pricked up their ears one by one, for fear of missing a word.

Li Shanchang coughed twice, cleared his throat, and continued:

"Your Majesty was sympathetic to the ministers and other ministers back then, and gave them a special subsidy for public land, so that the ministers were grateful."

"Back then, His Majesty gave his ministers 3,000 acres of fertile land, and the old ministers were idle at home, and there was no cost, and these fertile fields were enough for a large family to live."

"I didn't expect that the rebel son in the family teamed up with the housekeeper to hide from the old minister and drum up more than 30,000 acres."

"I think the old ministers are all half-cut people who have fallen into the ground, why do you want so many fields?"

Speaking of which.

The civil and military officials in the court finally understood what was going on.

In the past few years, these officials have more or less purchased some fertile land.

However, the fertile land they purchased had land deeds, not stolen and robbed.

Could it be that the emperor even cares about this?

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting on the dragon chair, looked at Li Shanchang.

Without saying a word, his eyes were cold.

He wanted to see what the old fox wanted to do.

"Therefore, the old minister is willing to sacrifice the fields that the dog has been working on in recent years to relieve his sorrows!"

After Li Shanchang finished speaking, he reached out and took out the field deed from his arms, and raised his hands above his head.

As soon as this remark came out, the whole house was shocked.

The officials immediately began to discuss.

"What, the Han Gong handed over the land he purchased to His Majesty."

"More than 30,000 acres, this is not a small amount, how much silver does it cost?"

"The Korean public capital has handed over the land to the public, can I still keep my hundreds of acres?"

"The emperor made this play, it turned out to be this purpose!"

"Alas, I knew that I wouldn't have spent this unjust money."

“…”

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Li Shan's Tian Qi who was taller than his head, and said pretendly:

"Baifu, this is the dream you want to explain to me?"

"It's very good, it's still a hundred rooms to understand my heart, it's just that the Manchu Dynasty has purchased the land, and you will donate the land alone..."

didn't wait for Zhu Yuanzhang to finish speaking.

Hu Weiyong then stood up and knelt on the ground and played:

"Chen Hu Weiyong is willing to go out with the national bus to purchase the field."

With Li Shanchang and Hu Weiyong taking the lead, the ministers came out one after another to invite:

"Chen Xu Da is willing!"

"Chen Tang and willing!"

"Minister Li Wenzhong is willing!"

“…”

looked at the hundred officials who came out of work under the imperial stairs.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction and was about to speak.

At this moment, a rough voice came from the court:

"Minister, I don't want to!"
