Bright Moon Breeze (35) (Bright Moon Breeze (35) in Yang Lian's heart...)
Mingyue Qingfeng (35) Yang Lian couldn't explain what it felt like, and was very silent on the way back.
Zuo Guangdou said: "Brother Yang, King Jian is right about this matter."
How can we see it?
Zuo Guangdou asked, "Brother Yang is so confused, how could he forget about Yingzong and Daizong?"
The Yingzong was Zhu Qizhen, and the Daizong was Zhu Qiyu.
Zhu Qizhen was captured in the war, and the courtiers supported his younger brother Zhu Qiyu. However, after Zhu Qizhen came back, he asked his younger brother to kick him down, and he became the leader again.
Therefore, the two emperors Yingzong and Daizong had three reign titles.
In the fourteen years when Yingzong first came to power, the reign title was Zhengtong. Later, his brother Daizong was replaced, and he was emperor for eight years, with the reign name Jingtai. When Daizong was kicked out, Yingzong came to the throne again, and the reign name was changed to
God is fine.
Going forward a hundred years or so, our ancestors have had this kind of thing where two brothers were on top of me, and then you were on top of me, and no one would be afraid of it!
If you really create an overlord, let alone the emperor who ascends the throne will feel resentful, even the courtiers may not be willing to bet on both sides. There are examples from our ancestors. It is hard to guarantee that no one will want to support the elder brother and then drive out the younger brother.
Therefore, Zuo Guangdou said, "Brother Yang, if you don't kill anyone, you are already being kind to King Jian. What's even more commendable is that the incident happened so suddenly that King Jian was absolutely unprepared. But in just a short while, we didn't
What he thought of, he thought of it! He also came up with a persuasive settlement method. How many people has Brother Yang seen with such quick wit?"
Yang Lian stopped talking.
Zuo Guangdou handed over his hand and said goodbye! He had other thoughts in his heart. That was an act of clique, and it was not something that could be done for a long time. King Jian had already pointed it out. He said, "Isn't it obvious that I won't divide you into parties?"
?He is saying that it is best for you not to have cliques or cliques. As long as you do your job sincerely, he will see it. After all, the purpose of being an official is to do things, not to fight.
When it comes to work, who doesn’t want to make a difference when they step into officialdom?
This king seems to have the appearance of a wise king. I hope he can save the Ming Dynasty, which is about to collapse.
He went back to bed immediately and told his family, "Fourth watch! You must wake me up at the fourth watch."
With such solemnity, how could his wife dare to be careless? She didn't sleep all night, lighting an oil lamp and doing needlework, glancing at the hourglass from time to time. Before the fourth watch, she quietly got up, cooked two chickens, brought them, laid them on the table, and went on errands.
Such a little movement woke Zuo Guangdou up, and he sat up suddenly, "What time is it?"
"It's time for the fourth update soon!"
Then I got up! I got up, washed and dressed, stuffed two eggs in my mouth, rinsed my mouth and took a few sips of water, packed my official uniform and hurried out.
He was the first minister to enter the palace after the palace door opened. Others waiting were eunuchs who were about to enter the palace as errands. Entering the palace among them, he was shivering from the cold. It was really cold.
At this point, have you met anyone? Didn’t you say meet?
Try to go and check it out!
As soon as they reached the door, the man named Wang Cheng came out, "Please come in..."
Really excited!
Well! It really started. You can still hear the whistling sound from behind. It must be the princess practicing martial arts!
After entering, the young man, dressed in short kudzu, smiled and said: "Sit down first! I'll wipe off the sweat and come back." After that, he said to Zhou Bao, "Give me a bowl of soy milk. It's a cold day, so drink something warm."
The young man who had washed his face for a while came back again, with a faint smile, he said, "The princess is practicing martial arts, I will practice with you. She is not as talented as the princess, but I am used to getting up early in the past two years.
"
Study literature and martial arts, so perseverant!
Zuo Guangdou was thinking about what to say when he got up early, but he didn't expect that the young man didn't give him a chance to speak first. He sat over and said directly: "Mr. Zuo, you are good at farming, especially water conservancy. I have seen you before.
The memorial stated that the shortcomings of northern agriculture are due to inadequate water conservancy, and also mentioned the cultivation of rice in the north... Rice cultivation in the north is feasible! But it cannot be taken care of for the time being. Today, people from Qintianjian were called to ask questions
Ask the heavens! In recent years, the weather has been abnormal, which is somewhat similar to the weather in the late Song Dynasty. Therefore, how to survive this period of weather anomalies and save more lives is the top priority. You will do it today
Even if you don’t come early, I’ll still have to ask someone to invite you over to discuss your arrangements.”
Zuo Guangdou hurriedly stood up and handed over his hands. Farming is the foundation of the country. If you can solemnly entrust farming, this is important.
Building water conservancy projects is a matter of immediate benefit and eternal success. If you can accomplish this in your lifetime, you will be famous throughout the ages.
The fourth master asked him to sit down, and then said: "Before the disaster relief in the capital, we used work-for-relief. Now it is the same. We are relieving the victims and building water conservancy projects. I will leave this matter to you. In addition, you can consider it when you go back."
To recommend officials, people must be knowledgeable about farming, and the court needs to promote new crop officials..."
After saying that, he called Zhou Bao, "See if the food is ready, bring me an extra portion..."
yes!
Breakfast is an egg, a cup of soy milk, a section of corn, half a sweet potato and a potato, and a plate of kimchi and a plate of pickles.
Zuo Guangdou was stunned for a moment, "You... just eat this?"
Zhou Baodao: "The prince and princess are used to being simple in their daily life, and they only have four dishes at home."
The fourth master first took the sweet potato and asked Zuo Guangdou, "Are there some plantings of this in the south?"
Yes! I ate it once or twice and didn’t pay much attention to it.
"It is drought-resistant and can be planted on wasteland without being picky about the soil. The yield is very good and it can satisfy your hunger."
After taking a bite, it actually tasted pretty good.
"It's definitely not good to eat it for a long time." The fourth master didn't know why, but he hated this thing deeply, as if he had a deep love and hate relationship with it. "However, it is enough to save life. Even if there is a drought, production will decrease, but planting
If the area is large, one person can have ten acres of land and only harvest one-tenth of it, but he will not starve to death."
Zuo Guangdou whispered: "Creating wasteland is not that easy."
You know! The key is that land is concentrated in more people's hands, right?
right!
The fourth master said: "So, there is something that I have in mind, but due to various reasons, I did not mention it in depth. Now that Zuo Gong has talked about this matter, I will say a few words that are vague in my mind.
Thoughts. Regarding land, I want to start with reforming the tax system!"
Change the tax system? Zuo Guangdou understood a little bit. He had given all kinds of favors before, but he didn't mention anything about taxes.
"Taxation is the foundation for the operation of the imperial court. But if all taxes are placed at the bottom, it will shake the earth." The fourth master said, "Therefore, reforming the tax system is the way to go! Why did I always use the five-digit tax system before?
What about ten acres as the benchmark? Because this lays a foundation for the tax system. Taking fifty acres as the benchmark, no grain will be paid within fifty acres. If it exceeds fifty acres, the excess will be ignored. If it exceeds twenty acres, this is
One collection standard. If it exceeds thirty to fifty acres, this is another standard."
Zuo Guangdou understood a little bit, "Suppose there are one hundred acres of land, fifty acres of which do not need to pay grain, and the remaining fifty acres, of which twenty acres have a small grain payment ratio, and the remaining thirty acres are another standard
…”
right!
I understand, with this change, small households will have no burden and will pay almost no food, or very little. Even landlords with small assets can take advantage. Why? Because many large families do not divide their families! Brother
Several people, living together for several generations, all live in the same family. But if there is no food payment within fifty acres, and the amount of food payment within one hundred acres is not large, then the small landowners will definitely split up! Five hundred acres of land
A landowner has three or five sons. With such a share, each son does not have much land. Calculated in this way, he can pay a lot less tax.
The real victims are the big landowners. They have to rent out the land. If they open up wasteland without collecting rent, it can still become private property. This will inevitably lead to many landless tenants to open up wasteland, and then there will be less land for tenants. The big landowners
It is necessary to reduce the rent to achieve the purpose of having people cultivate the land. More than half of the income from this land is divided among the tenants, and the remaining four will be good. If a large amount of taxes are levied on these four levels, what they will receive will be
There is not much benefit left.
So, if it is unprofitable for them to occupy such a large area of land, what is the purpose of holding it?
The fourth master then said: "The imperial court must reopen shipping, and private funds are welcome to participate..."
Got it! Let those who have land but can no longer extract profits from the land sell their land and participate in shipping. These people are still chasing huge profits.
But if this is the case, does the imperial court have the funds to purchase so much land?
The common people cannot afford it, and small landowners can consume some of it sporadically, but there will still be land that is difficult to deal with.
"Why is it so difficult to deal with?" Fourth Master said, "They can use their land to offset half of the customs tax paid to the court for shipping." What about the land you took back?
"Either military reclamation, civilian reclamation, or supporting departments of prisons. What these places produce every year, apart from their own expenses, is military rations. Even so, they cannot consume so much land.
, then these will be distributed to the people nearby who want them. The land will be planted by them. Within ten years, 30% of the grain will be handed over to the court and 70% will be kept for themselves. After ten years, the land will belong to them."
This is just like buying a tradable asset in installments. This is a very attractive condition. It means that after going around in such a circle, the land problem has been solved. If everyone has land to farm, how many people will be willing to give it up?
There will be trouble in the family and property.
This is equivalent to exempting 80% of the people in the world from taxes, leaving only 20% of the taxpayers.
But whose interests are really harmed here?
No! No one's road was blocked.
Hey hey? How does this work?
At this point, he felt that he would not be able to talk to him again. Therefore, he could only say: "I have to go back and think about it carefully before I can reply to your words."
Hmm! If you have any ideas, just say so. This matter is still immature and I haven’t mentioned it to anyone yet due to all my worries.
Zuo Guangdou hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I won't talk to anyone."
Then let’s eat and get busy. How should northern water conservancy be repaired and where should it be repaired? Write a note and hand it over later, and we’ll talk about it later.
I don't know whether it was because I felt comfortable eating or because I was chatting happily. When I came out, my chest felt hot when I looked at the people waiting to be summoned outside.
Lin Yutong saw the Fourth Master's place was very lively in the corridor. She clapped her hands and said, it's our turn to work! It is said that in the Ming Dynasty Palace, there are 37 million taels of gold ingots in the internal treasury alone. How can this be said...
That's a bit ridiculous! If Chongzhen really had so much money, he would have killed the ancestors of the Fourth Master's family, and would he have lost the country?
Therefore, Lin Yutong didn't have high expectations for the things in the library! What she was thinking was that these eunuchs had collected the things in various ways over the years, were corrupt, took the things out of the library and passed them off as good ones. You
Speaking of these people, how much do they have to hide?
It is estimated that by confiscating these people, the proceeds must be more than the royal treasury.
Let’s go! Let’s get to work! We’ve found so much that Fourth Master can use the money to hit his ancestors...
