Sitting opposite him was Xie Jin, who was frowning and competing with a bowl of mutton soup in front of him.
After cutting expenses in the palace, the left-behind ministers did not care about the meal. The ministers in the south study either paid their own money to buy from the imperial kitchen or ate outside.
The dishes in the imperial kitchen are not enough, but the food they spend too much money and are not suitable for the taste.
But at the moment, Xie Jin missed the dishes in the palace because he, a native of Jiangxi, had nowhere to put his mouth on the mutton soup in front of him and the thick sesame cake that was bigger than his fist.
Zhu Gaochi was forced to eat, but who knew that he had found such a northern restaurant with a taste of mutton soup, and mutton hoof sugar garlic.
"Come in your place, I will keep it hot, and it will be cooler if it is cooler for a while!"
At this time, the shopkeeper put a plate of hot goat waist on the table and said goodbye with a smile.
The hot olive waist was red and had a smell of mutton. Xie Jin couldn't help but frown again, and he didn't like to eat mutton.
Zhu Gaochi didn't care about this, holding two big mouthfuls of mutton soup, spread the pancake and stuffed the sheep's waist inside, and then snuggled his cheeks and chewed them.
"Anyway, this is the first virtue since the emperor ascended the throne." Xie Jin said slowly, "You also know that it is not easy to pardon people with lowliness. It is easy for ordinary people to be responsible for it. You are the emperor's grandson and the minister of the king of the Nanshu. You are worth it. Who will take the lead if you don't take the lead?"
"That's it!" Zhu Gaochi knew that Xie Jin recommended him as the emperor, and he did not mean to blame Xie Jin, but he felt that this matter was really difficult.
"Master Xie, please give me a solid lesson!" Zhu Gaochi swallowed the things in his mouth and whispered, "Is the above meaning similar to do it or a real thing?"
Xie Jin looked at him and smiled, "Of course it's real!"
Suddenly, Zhu Gaochi's face looked ugly.
The biggest difficulty in pardoning people who are not dependent on the identities of those untouchables, nor on how to resettle them, but on the fact that they will touch the interests of others.
Not to mention those fishermen, such as those who are in the Huainan and Huainan, the lazy people in Zhejiang, and the shanty towns in Fujian, are actually equivalent to domestic slaves, free tenants, and big animals with two legs in the eyes of local gentry. They are labor forces that local governments can use at will. Sudden pardons will inevitably arouse disgust and confrontation among the majority of people.
But what is even more difficult is the meaning behind this sentence.
Strictly speaking, it also involves some shameful population transactions, slaves and servants in the families of officials and gentry, etc.
Offend people!
The fragrant sesame cake immediately became boring.
"In fact, the imperial court has been investigating the population in recent years, but the numbers of each inspection are different!" Xie Jin said while stirring up the mutton soup, "The key is that there are countermeasures to hide the population in the local area, and suppress the good and the cheap! The reason for pardoning the lowly is not only due to virtue, but also to make it clear how many people there are in the Ming Dynasty!"
"The population is clear, it is easier to spread the stakes into the acres!" Zhu Gaochi smiled bitterly, "Master Xie, it turns out that you are all in one set of one set!"
Population and land will always be the core issues of this country. All policies must focus on these two items. Xie Jin's seemingly inadvertent sentence directly pointed out the essence of the problem.
"Actually, I'm not afraid of being difficult. I'm the grandson of the Ming Dynasty, and the whole world belongs to me!" Zhu Gaochi smiled, "So I'm not afraid of offending people. Whoever dares to blow up the thorns with me will deal with whom? But it's hard to have no place to whine?"
As he said, he smiled, "It's like you look at this sheep's hooves, where did you start to chew?"
