The wave of party struggles formed in the late Ming Dynasty had a larger level, which was caused by disputes over interests, and what this best reflects is the formulation of taxes.

Parties like Qi Party, Chu Party, Zhejiang Party, Xuan Party, Kun Party, etc., strong regional parties like Donglin Party, and eunuch Party formed by the remnants of Qi Chu Zhejiang Party,

In essence, they are all of the same nature, and it is not an exaggeration to call them the old-school privileged group.

Including the original time trajectory, the Nanming regime formed after the Jiashen National Migration and the riot between the Donglin Party and the eunuch Party formed, which was still a dispute over interests.

Even if the national crisis is right in front of us, when it is time to fight, they still have to fight, stand here and hang around in the world, how can everything go well?

Even if the officials in the court don’t want to fight, the interest groups behind them will be tied up and threatened them to fight.

This fully reflects that the Ming Dynasty's civil servant group was an extremely complex interest consortium.

Part of the real root cause of the Ming party struggle was in the civil servant group itself, but the most core one was in the privileged few groups.

A large number of means of production, wealth, education, etc. are concentrated in their hands, which will make them want to get more.

"What exactly does Sun Chuanting mean?"

Han Du frowned, looked at the memorial in his hand, and said, "We must establish a new State Taxation Department under the Ministry of Revenue, and gradually bring the tariff inputs involving the grain transportation into the department's control.

It is really arrogant to recruit tax police, tax supervisors, tax supervisors and other types to be in charge of clear powers to avoid favoritism and fraud.

He is the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture. No matter how much he cares about Shuntian Prefecture, how could he interfere in such matters?!"

The several Zhongshu Shepherds standing showed different expressions, just like the memorial presented by Sun Chuanting. After they learned about it, they also reacted like Han Du.

As the chief minister of the Ming Dynasty, especially after the implementation of the responsibility system and accountability system, Han Yu's disciplinary matters increased, and the Secretariat around him needed to help him sort out the memorials.

To clarify which are important, which are secondary, and which are not important.

At that time, Han will deal with the matter according to the size of the matter.

"Cross a few copies of this memorial and send it to Wen Ge Lao and his friends, and each one of them took one." Han Du took the memorial in his hand, looked at everyone in front of him, and frowned.

"In addition, Master Bi sent a few more copies, just say that this matter is of great importance. The cabinet must be clear about this matter and discuss it later."

"Here!"

The Secretariat servants immediately bowed and responded.

Originally, according to what Han Yu thought, he wanted to put this memorial aside, but when he thought of the emperor behind Sun Chuanting, Han Yu asked him to dispel this thought.

‘This Sun Chuanting is so good, why did he submit such a memorial? Is there any instructing from His Majesty behind this?’

Looking at the backs of several people, Han Du narrowed his eyes and thought to himself: 'After all, this national tax department is really set up in the Ministry of Revenue. It will not only be in charge of the collection of banknotes set up by the canal transportation, but also gradually clarify the commercial tax matter.

How could Sun Chuanting, the governor of Shuntian, need to worry about interfere? Just the matter under Shuntian Prefecture was enough to make him busy.

Especially in the capital, victims from Shanxi and Shaanxi who were placed in Fucaifang work for relief work. If any mistakes occur, they will lead to impeachment by the censors and censors.’

After thinking through the current situation, Han Yu's intuition was naturally associated with Emperor Chongzhen. After all, when it comes to setting up a special new government office, the emperor would be more capable than anyone else.

Since this is the case, it cannot be simply treated coldly. All the ministers in the cabinet must be asked to know about this matter.

After all, if the cash gates involved in the canal transportation really need to gradually collect power from the local government and ask the court to be fully responsible, the storm and ripples caused will be too big.

It is related to tax adjustments, so Han Du cannot ignore it.

The situation that happened in the cabinet was not surprisingly spread among many Beijing officials in the outside dynasty. After all, it was related to taxes, so who would not pay attention to it?

"Did Lu Qing not submit a secret memorial in these days?"

Emperor Chongzhen, holding a red pen, looked at Wang Chengen and said, "The batch of disaster relief money and food allocated by the treasury is only enough for the early disaster relief."

Even if Zhili has planned to establish a Disaster Relief Administration, the money and food required for subsequent disaster relief will still be relatively large, which is a bit strange.

"The Emperor, Governor Lu did not submit a secret memorial."

Wang Chengen bowed and said, "I have specially ordered the secret memorials involving those important officials. As long as they are submitted to the palace from the local area, they must be presented to the imperial court as soon as possible."

Emperor Chongzhen frowned slightly, obviously thinking about what happened to Lu Xiangsheng? Is it that the remnants of Bailian were caught and a batch of money and grain was seized? Or did Daming Mansion and other places punish a group of gentry and merchants?

Emperor Chongzhen was not a stingy person.

When it comes to good ministers and generals he trusts, he always needs to raise and allocate as soon as possible. After all, many of the things they do locally are related to order and stability.

If it is really slower and leads to the deterioration of the local situation, it would be too much of a loss.

However, when dealing with corrupt officials, let alone allocating money and food, Emperor Chongzhen also tried to punish them and search all the stolen silver and stolen goods under their names.

The current situation in the Ming Dynasty was purely due to the serious corruption in the administration of the government, the courts and local governments, and there were too many officials who committed favoritism and fraud.

Emperor Chongzhen would never be lenient if he could kill those who were righteous.

"I pay homage to the emperor."

Wang Dehua hurried into the Donghunting Pavilion and bowed.

"But what wind direction is there?" Seeing that Wang Dehua came, Emperor Chongzhen calmed down and frowned, "Pick those important reports."

"According to the situation found by the slaves."

Wang Dehua hurriedly reported: "Since the memorial submitted by Sun Gong and transferred it to the cabinet, many ministers in the court quickly learned about this matter.

Especially in the Ministry of Revenue, everyone accused Sun Fu Yin of being meddling in other people's business and wanted to win the favor of the emperor, so they did this. What's more, some officials angrily called Sun Fu Yin a scum.

However, Mr. Bi Ge attached great importance to the memorial presented by Sun Fu Yin. I don’t know what I think.”

"Um."

Emperor Chongzhen responded: "You retreat first."

Emperor Chongzhen knew what kind of public opinion the memorial presented by Sun Chuanting would cause in the court, especially the Ministry of Revenue, which involves taxes, which would cause an impact. Even if Bi Ziyan was the wealth minister of the Ming Dynasty,
