Chapter 227: Deep Meaning (2)

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and the court is even more a river and lake full of interests.

It’s not that these ministers are not good, but that people have selfish intentions and must fight for themselves.

The officials in Jiangnan who were unwilling to collect taxes could no longer raise their heads after being scolded by Zhu Yunyu. Moreover, looking at Zhu Yunyu's face, if they talked about it again, they would probably lose their holy heart.

At this time, Ling Han, the Minister of Personnel, spoke. I thought that what Your Highness said was very true. Paying grain and taxes was the duty of the subjects. As he said, he snorted, saying that it was a group of gentry, but not a group of white-haired commoners? The virtues of the state made them shake, and there were ministers who helped them speak. If they were to accommodate, hehe...

Shangshu Ling, be careful of his words! Liu Sanwu spoke, and Shi Shi Zhan and others were also full of public opinion. He was afraid that it would arouse the anger of the people in Jiangnan and would be of no use to the country!

Humph! Ling Han said again, who dares to have any resentment? It is not good to bully the blade of the Ming Dynasty?

OK! Zhu Yunxiu took another sip of tea. Don’t talk about this anymore. Gu knows what you are thinking and knows that you are afraid of changes in the place. But Gu tells you, if you are afraid of wolves in front of administrative affairs, what’s the point?

Your Highness hit the ground! Ling Han first said a good word, and then said, Your Highness, before you march north, I ordered my ministers and others to investigate the world's temple property......

Before the expedition, the civil servant group of the Ming Dynasty began to attack monks all over the world. Now, it is time to get the result.

Zhu Yunxiu said, have all the monks in temples in the world found out?

The monks and nuns who ordered to return to the secular world without a certificate were detained, 4,000 illegal monks were detained, and 1,300 mu of land was found, 1,720,000 mu of silver, 600,000 stagnant copper coins, and houses...

Puff, Zhu Yunxiu almost vomited out a mouthful of tea.

Monks, so much wealth? By chance, this time, the pension for the fallen soldiers in Goryeo is still a little short of it.

Many monks in the world practice illegal acts and sing Buddha's name to collect gold and silver! Zhu Yunxiu said in a deep voice that after that, all monks and officials will be cancelled, and monks in temples in various places must be registered and booked in the government office. The monks' certificates will also be handed over to local officials for handling.

However, don’t overcorrect me. Monks are not good, Buddha is good! Buddha can encourage good deeds and purify people’s hearts. The government should still highly commend the Taoist monks who have the sufferings of the people in the world!

From then on, there will be no more monk Hua who abide by the Qing rules and regulations of the Ming Dynasty. From the inheritance of the Yuan Dynasty to the monk's privileges of the dynasty, they will be abolished. The government's control over the temples is more strict.

Ling Han bowed his head and said, Your Highness, His Majesty, and others also had this intention. As he said that, he paused and continued to laugh. I was responsible for investigating the world's temple property. I found that there were many temples in Suhang, Qiantang, Guangdong and other places. They actually cast Buddha statues with pure copper, the size could weigh a thousand pounds.

It’s fine to have copper, but some Buddha statues in temples are just golden bodies, with gold foils on them! From a distance, they look magnificent and magnificent than the world!

This old man, not only did he say anything about monk Hua, but he didn't even let go of anything else. He listened to his words, it meant to scrape off gold foil and melt the bronze statue to enrich the treasury.

Zhu Yunxiu pondered for a moment and carefully identified it. If it was a treasure of his predecessors that had been passed down for a hundred years, don’t move. If it was made up for these years, what should we do? We checked the temple property in order to cut off this extravagant trend!

Message, obey the order!

Speaking of copper, I will tell you that a large copper mine was found in Goryeo. Zhu Yunxi smiled and said, "It can be solved, the Ming Dynasty's worries are lacking copper!"

I have sent someone to take over and check it out! Lian Zining, the Minister of Works, reported that from then on, the Ming Dynasty will have more wealth!

Speaking of this, the ministers in the palace all had smiles on their faces. Although these people did not advocate war, they refused to accept the spoils of war, and the more they were the better.

Among the Hanlin Bachelor, Xie Jin smiled and said, "In fact, foreign countries are not without good things. I like to read miscellaneous books. The books say that Goryeo not only has copper, but also produces black carbon and gold and silver minerals. In the southwest of the Ming Dynasty, those foreign countries are rich in rice and gems. Even Japan, where pirates are rampant, produces silver. Now, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty is in power, and the army of tigers and wolves.........

As he said that, he felt that his colleagues around him looked at him with bad eyes and quickly swallowed the second half of the sentence back.

The meaning of the eyes of everyone was very obvious.

Just Xie Jin knows, we don’t know? Why are you showing off? Are you trying to show off or instigate the crown prince to attack other vassal states?

Liu Sanwu, the clan of the Secretariat, came out to report, Your Highness, I heard that Your Highness is willing to build a province in Goryeo?

That's right! Zhu Yunxiu said that the four counties of Goryeo and Lelang in the Han Dynasty and the land of the Han family should be established.

But Goryeo is too far away, and its people are completely different from the Central Plains. Their diet and language are different, and their clothes are all different...

The Ming Dynasty spans north and south, and the south, the south has different sounds and thirty miles. Zhu Yunxiu smiled and said, but they are also people of the Ming Dynasty!

I understand your highness’s meaning. Our China is the place where sages educate. Although they are different and not pronounced, their bloodlines have evidence to follow, and they have the same roots and species. That Goryeo is not a Chinese people.........

The will of loneliness has been decided, please don’t say anything more! Zhu Yunxiu spoke and set up a province to achieve long-term stability. The plan for a thousand-year period begins from now on. If you don’t have to be a province, why bother to go to the expedition and kill countless people!

Your Highness, if a province is established, who is the governor? Fang Xiaoru suddenly asked.

Zhu Yunxi smiled, why, Master Fang means to let go?

I dare not, I am good at learning, but I am not good at governing the people! Fang Xiaoru said that Goryeo is different from the Central Plains, so I must choose a capable minister who is familiar with the civil affairs of the barbarian land!

The Hanlin had the position of selecting talents, but it was okay to say it! Zhu Yunsheng said.

The provincial governor was a provincial governor, and he was appointed to obey the imperial power, and there was no reason why Hanlin scholars talked too much. What Zhu Yunyu said was equivalent to giving Fang Xiaoru a step.

In fact, Zhu Yunxiu was also curious. Fang Xiaoru has never been a talkative person, so why did he suddenly talk about political affairs today?

Then the minister was usurped. In the same year as me, Zhang Xiaoru was serious. I was good at literary affairs, and Zhang Xu was good at civil affairs. Since becoming an official, I have always lived in the mixed places of barbarians and humble people in Yunnan to deal with civil affairs.

He suppressed the barbarian chieftains, comforted the border residents, built military camps and built schools, and built official roads, and achieved remarkable political achievements.

Zhu Yunxiu pondered silently. He had really heard of Zhang Feng. He cooperated with the Mu family's passion for making a living in Yunnan. It is important to know that in this era, the chieftains and barbarians in Yunnan were rebellious and refused to accept the king's transformation. He could do well there, which shows his ability.

Just so happened that the Duke of Qian, Mu Chun, was going to meet in Beijing these days, and summoned Zhang Jue to come with him! Zhu Yunjue said with a smile.

After hearing Zhu Yunyu mention the name of the Duke of Qian, and thinking about the war report on the Yunnan border today, the ministers' faces were a little strange.

Fang Xiaoru said loudly, "Your Highness wants to use troops to Yunnan?" As he said, "Go forward, the land of Yunnan is full of smoke and chaos, and it is not up to manpower." Even a million troops cannot be used!

OK OK! Zhu Yunxiu waved his hand and said, don’t think too much, I don’t have that mind!

As he spoke, he was smiling bitterly in his heart. The minds of these scholars were also changing too quickly. As soon as a little wind sounded, they could guess one or two.

What else do you think of me? Zhu Yunxi asked.

I still have a memorial! Fang Xiaoru continued.

Say it!

Your Highness! Fang Xiaoru bowed down and said solemnly, I would like to report to Your Highness, relatives of the civil servants, and far away from the military!

Suddenly, Zhu Yunxi's brows frowned.

The warriors are domineering, and they use military achievements as their ability to fight and use any means to fight! Now in the Ming Dynasty, the country is enriching the country and strengthening the people, followed by war. Fang Xiaoru continued to say that His Highness was a heroic young man, which was a blessing for the country and the country, but His Highness likes swords and weapons, and often raises millions of troops to launch an expedition!

Even if the achievements of destroying the country are recorded in history, if you are not careful, you will never be able to recover!

The sage masters of all dynasties, like martial arts of Han, also worked hard to govern the country first, and then raised troops to go north!

Furthermore, the Ming Dynasty now has military men occupied the court, and these people are domineering and arrogant. Now they have the love of His Highness, they are even more lawless!

A few days ago, Cao Zhen, Marquis of Jingchuan, Marquis of Dongguan, Marquis of Yongping and others led their troops back to Beijing. They boasted about their martial arts skills when they met, saying how many gold and silver women they robbed and how many cities they slaughtered. In their words, there was no fear and full of pride and complacent!

Such things will hurt Your Highness’s reputation for being virtuous! The Ming Dynasty is the best country in the world, and we should treat all the countries in the world with kindness. I am afraid that Your Highness’s youth is very energetic and listen to the instigation of those warriors!

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly dropped to freezing point.

Ling Han asked himself a firm question, but he didn't dare to talk too much about this issue.

But to be fair, all Fang Xiaoru's words make some sense.

On the throne, Zhu Yunyu pondered for a long time, and suddenly smiled. Gu understood your heart, and Gu also knew the harm of war to the country. Take this conquest of Goryeo to say that the country consumes a huge amount of money, and behind the great victory is the waste of the people and money!

In fact, he wanted to talk to these people in his heart about what is strategic vision, what is defending enemies beyond the people, and what is expanding the country's living space.

But in this era, what Fang Xiaoru said was the mainstream.

However, Zhu Yunxiu understands his kindness, which does not mean that he will agree.

At this time, Zhu Yunqiu slowly stood up, looked at the towering green mountains outside the window, and spoke word by word. Do you know what the sentence Gu likes more?

The ministers were confused and looked at him.

This sentence is not the words of a wise man, but the words of a Mongolian Khan. When Genghis Khan was preparing the grassland, he said that wherever the sun rises, it will become a ranch for the Mongolians!

And in my heart!

Zhu Yunxiu turned around, looked at his ministers, and said loudly that wherever the rivers arrived, they were all the land of the Ming Dynasty!

I am unwilling to be just a good monarch in your heart!
