Listening to Zhang Hua's endless discussion for more than half an hour, Lin Yizhi said that his good life was about to come to an end. Some time ago, there was a lot of money from Shi Chong and others' homes, so this money was spent lavishly, like flowing water.

I just didn't expect that in such a short period of time, the treasury would be empty. After all, there are too many places that need to spend money now, and in recent years, there have been many natural disasters in Dajin, and there is too much money to be relieved. Moreover, affected by this disaster, Lin Yi could not bear to increase the burden on the people, and the treasury revenue was sharply reduced. On top of that, the projects he and his courtiers such as Zhang Hua and his courtiers planned to increase official roads and build water conservancy projects cost a lot of money.

This official road in the north is basically sufficient, and Lin Yi mainly goes to the south of the Yangtze River, so as to encourage the northern residents to migrate to the south. In the concept of the residents of several states in the Central Plains, this Central Plains is after all a place where ancestors have lived for generations, and if it is not for life, who is willing to migrate to the south. Therefore, Lin Yizhi said that relying on this imperial court's coercive measures would not be of much use. However, he believes that if a few years later, this winter is still so cold every year, more and more people from the north will move their families to Jing, Yang and other southern states every year.

The construction of water conservancy is even more necessary at present. In addition to this natural disaster, the most important thing is that the water conservancy is in disrepair. Of course, this is also a project that costs a lot of money. Due to the limited financial resources of the imperial court, Lin Yi can only focus on construction now.

There are countless rich people in this Luoyang City, and there are no less than dozens of local tyrants who are worth much more than this Shi Chong, but unfortunately Lin Yi can only watch them spend money on their lives now.

Lin Yi finally understood at this time. In ancient times, countless emperors knew that the powerful people in the court had countless wealth, but they didn't dare to touch it, they would rather sell their official positions, Lin Yi finally understood their difficulties.

These people are the cornerstone of the imperial court, and the family power is intertwined, all of them are relatives of the emperor and the country, if they are moved, they will not be able to get along with themselves, and even the throne will not be guaranteed.

Unless it is a heinous crime of rebellion, Lin Yi will not be able to break it at all. The so-called "ban on luxury" issued by Lin Yi when he ascended the throne. For them it is just a piece of paper. Naturally, one set in front of the face and one set behind the back. Without real evidence, Lin Yi naturally had no way to punish them. Even as an emperor, he didn't just do whatever he wanted. It seems that everything in this world has shackles.

Lin Yi at this time. I really feel that it is time to deal with Jia Hou's party. It is not a scene of mountains of corpses and rivers of blood, which is unbearable. But in exchange for countless possessions, it is really a wise move. It's a pity that in addition to Shi Chong and Jia Mi's countless family wealth, the other backbones of the party after that time have average family wealth, especially Na Pan An's family is even more impoverished, probably because the family wealth is dedicated to Jia Mi's mother and son.

"There is still a lot of money in the inner treasury, Lord Sikong will take it and use it first!" Lin Yi said to Zhang Hua. This treasury is divided into internal and external, the outer treasury is the state finance, and this inner treasury is naturally the emperor's personal property. Although Emperor Wu left a lot of inner libraries, most of them were squandered by this Jia Nanfeng, although Jia Nanfeng received countless bribes, but helplessly, this person prefers to reward ministers, palace maids and eunuchs to buy people's hearts, so what is left to Lin Yi is already very rare. But fortunately, Lin Yi exiled most of the palace maids and eunuchs in this palace, and this expenditure was naturally reduced by more than half. The most important thing is that the assets left by the East Palace back then.

The most dangerous place, that is, the safest place. When Lin Yi disappeared back then, countless people thought of this idea. Where did you know that these properties were not transferred by Wang Dun at all, but were only secretly buried somewhere in Luoyang. After Lin Yi returned to Luoyang, of course, he had already taken out this property.

Although this asset is a drop in the bucket compared to the deficit of the entire Dajin, it can at least solve the immediate need. As long as the current season's wheat grain is ripe, the income of the treasury will be available.

At that time, all this money was earned by the two big cities of renunciation and renunciation, but it was later closed due to the pressure and obstruction of this Jia Nanfeng. And Lin Yi naturally returned to his old business, hoping to rely on a big market like this renunciation to earn the property of those local tyrants.

Due to the support of the imperial court, countless large cities such as renunciation and renunciation have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and of course the imperial court will slowly collect a large amount of taxes from them. Lin Yi only dared to start so many projects at the same time, just because the treasury finances were getting better and better.

"This inner treasury is His Majesty's private wealth, so I'm afraid it's ......," Zhang Hua said hesitantly. Although the emperor agrees with such an approach, he is afraid that there is a lot of resistance.

To be extravagant and thrifty, and return to simplicity, although it was pushed by the emperor and approved by countless ministers like him, there were many voices in the court, thinking that the emperor's shabby behavior was insulting to the dignity of the royal family and the demeanor of a great country, especially those old princes, everyone is a man of his word, and his energy is beyond imagination. Since the new emperor ascended the throne, there have been countless measures, but the resistance is not small. But all this for the sake of the future of the country. Zhang Hua finally understood that the emperor must invite him to go out of the mountain to preside over the government.

Lin Yi naturally knew what Zhang Hua was worried about, the property of this inner library was nominally the emperor's private property, but in fact it was the property of the entire royal Sima clan, and the emperor was just a spokesperson. Unless it is a critical moment related to the life and death of the country, Lin Yi's actions will inevitably arouse the strong opposition of those princes.

Lin Yi said: "Lord Sikong can only do this according to this, and I will bear the rest!"

Zhang Hua said: "The old minister has thanked His Majesty for the common people in the world!"

Zhang Hua felt that he was so fortunate to meet such a master, what he could do now was to try his best to develop, keep quiet for the time being and let the news spread, govern the country well, and use the income of the outer treasury to compensate for the holes in the inner treasury as soon as possible.

Lin Yi has found this country that has just been founded for more than 30 years, and he is like an old man. The crux of this terminal illness is most importantly the feudal system and the scholar system. The so-called natural disasters and national contradictions are only secondary, and as long as these two problems are resolved, internal and external troubles will naturally be cured.

Of course, there is nothing wrong with this feudal kings stationed in all directions, and the same is true of the two Han Dynasty. The mistake is that the prince has sealed too much, and it is as rotten as a cabbage. What's even more wrong is that these princes have soldiers, money and power, which makes it difficult for them not to think about it. If there is a strong lord to suppress them, once the king is cowardly, the world will be in chaos.

Back then, Sima Yan only sealed so many princes of the Sima family, and he also had his last resort. The Sima clan was supported by the northern clans, and only then did they seize Cao Wei's rivers and mountains without blood. Therefore, in order to maintain the rule of the Sima family, in order to gain the support of the clan, it was necessary to seal the kings, improve their status, and maintain the rule of the Sima family over the empire.

Therefore, at the beginning of the founding of the country, these princes made a certain positive contribution to maintaining the imperial power of the Sima clan, and the fault was that after the country was running steadily, they continued to let these princes hold so much military power, and they were so distrustful of people with different surnames. Probably because of the fear that another different surname would replace Sima's rule in the future, just as Sima replaced Cao Wei's rule. This is all a sign of weakness of heart.

Of course, during the Han Dynasty, the feudal state also posed a certain threat to the central rule, and even finally broke out in the Seven Kings Rebellion. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty later took the Tui En Order to prepare to weaken the power of the princes and kings, which is very worthy of Lin Yi's reference. But is it that it is far more than the time of the Western Han Dynasty. The main reason is that there are too many princes of the Western Jin Dynasty, and the most important thing is that most of these princes are not in their own feudal country, but are high-ranking officials in the imperial court, supervising the town, and holding heavy troops.

And this scholar clan system has led to the decline of this entire era, the main reason for the sinking of the Central Plains, and even the reason why this Sima Yan divided so many princes, to a certain extent, is also due to the strength of this scholar clan system, in order to fight against the northern scholar clan. The so-called nine-grade Zhongzheng system has allowed the children of these scholars to appear in the era of talents, "there is no poor family in the upper grade, and there is no scholar in the lower grade!" The road for the children of the Shu clan to serve the country is blocked by this nine-grade Zhongzheng system, and there are many hardships. More importantly, in the homes of those great scholars, countless disciples are all over the world, and there are countless high-ranking officials, who have mastered the lifeblood of the imperial court. In later generations, it was not until 300 years later, when Emperor Wen of Sui promoted the imperial examination system, that the scholar system slowly walked down the altar.

Lin Yizhi said, the implementation of this imperial examination system now will definitely not be successful, and now is the peak period of this scholar clan. Without hundreds of years of baptism of war and blood and tears, the injury of that man-eating war and such a big social change is difficult for ordinary people to accept. So Lin Yi can only wait, waiting for a certain moment to come!(To be continued......)
