This matter cannot be rushed, no matter how angry it is, it must be suppressed. Things must be dealt with one by one, and we must first deal with this matter in the palace clearly.
Chen Ju and Jin Yiwei worked hard on both sides, and after three days, the cleaning was basically completed.
Three hundred and seventy-two sets of houses were copied, and 8.7 million acres of land were copied. How much does this equate to? Anyway, the total number of acres in Tongzhou is 1.1 million acres, which is equivalent to eight acres of land in Tongzhou.
Lin Yutong was in disbelief when he got it! This means that almost eight people in Tongzhou are working as tenants for these eunuchs. After a year of exhausting work, half of the output has to be handed over.
Her first reaction was to ask: "Grain? They don't pay taxes, right? What about grain? There must be hoarding!"
Wang Cheng said hurriedly: "Jinyiwei has already gone to search! Many fields are in Jiangnan, which will take time. I said that after the search, we will provide disaster relief on the spot, which will be cheaper. Besides, the amount of Yingtian's search is not small.
It still needs to be shipped back.”
Looking at the amount of gold and silver, this amount is indeed considerable.
Wang Cheng whispered: "If you include the discounts on gold and silver, gold and silver utensils, jade ornaments, antique calligraphy and paintings, the value should be around thirteen million taels."
"The money will be handed over to the household department for storage, and the utensils, furnishings and furniture... you can find a merchant and discount them directly."
Wang Cheng was stunned for a moment, "Which merchant are you looking for?"
"Who hugged Wei Zhongxian's lap? The merchant who wanted to curry favor with the future prince...go to him! He only dared to shout high, and never dared to discount. He first exchanged the silver and went out to ask the account department to credit it. Their accounts were etc.
We’ll figure it out later.”
Yes! We haven’t ascended the throne yet, so we can’t be anxious.
Just cleaning up the internal prison, showing favor to the maids, emptying the internal treasury, and reducing royal expenses will make people feel at ease. The next thing will happen slowly! After all, the name is justified.
Yes! The decree has been announced to the world outside, and the enthronement ceremony will be held on September 16th.
No matter how anxious you are, don't worry about just one or two days.
Tongtong also said to Wang Cheng, "When you leave the palace, send a message to my family, saying that everything is fine with me, so that they can rest assured. After you have been busy for a while, you can talk to your family again."
good!
Wang Cheng agreed and handed over the list, "Look...all these people have been killed?"
Lin Yutong took a red pen and ticked them off one by one, "One hundred and seventy-eight, kill them! Just at the Xisi Archway, ask everyone to watch how these people's heads fell off."
On which day?
"September 16th!" On the day he ascended the throne, the execution took place!
Wang Cheng understood immediately that this was for the world to see! Emperors who dare to kill people on the day they ascend the throne should be careful.
Lin Yutong continued to scroll down, "There are still more than a thousand people. There are no big evils, but small evils continue. If you feel unjust to kill them, then don't kill them. Coal is mined in the coal field, stone is quarried in the quarry, and weapons are crafted by the camp and maintenance supervisor."
What is lacking is coolies, let’s share them! Make it clear to the guards that these people will serve for life, and if one of them escapes, they will be questioned.”
This is another part.
What to do with the rest, there is such a huge amount? We still have to digest it!
"There are three thousand people left in the palace, half of which will be used for general maintenance of the palace. For the remaining half, you have to select those with good character, temperament, and knowledge. These people will be included in the ranks of officials. As for how to use these people, we will talk about it later.
, What you have to do now is to pick out these two groups of people, and you must choose them carefully. These are the ones who stay in the palace, and they are related to the safety of the palace."
Got it! “But what about the remaining tens of thousands of people?”
"Each person has a form to see what they are good at. Fill it out and hand it in. Anyone who is good at anything will do. Some people think that he can sail to the West like the Sanbao eunuch, so the shipping company won't mind giving you a position. Some people think that he can sail to the West like the Sanbao eunuch.
If you think you can go into battle and kill the enemy, then go and kill the enemy. If you gain a victory, you will be granted the title of marquis and prime minister. Even if you die in battle, if you still have family members to take care of, the policy of the court is that parents and children will have someone to rely on, and they will all live in it after death.
There are many worshipers in the Martyrs' Shrine. Those who are alive are the ministers of the court. Standing in the Jinluan Hall, who dares to look down upon? After the prince ascends the throne, he will canonize Zheng He and will issue an order for Zheng He to enter the Ancestral Temple..."
Wang Cheng said hurriedly: "No!"
"Why not?" Lin Yutong sighed, "Yes! The world has many prejudices against eunuchs, but we have to admit that among this group of people, there are outstanding ones and outstanding ones! This is the same as the officials in the world, bad ones should be punished
Kill! Okay, you should remember it! Zheng He’s seven voyages to the West are of immeasurable significance. It doesn’t matter if he is an internal prisoner. He has done things that many others have failed to do. Then he is a real man! These words are what I said.
, is also what the prince meant. You can bring these words to them and let them know that in my heart and the prince’s, there is no difference between them. I know that we have a pure army. But the pure army cannot fight! They are forced to
There is a big difference between being forced and not voluntary. But if people really have this ambition, they can join the army normally. Of course, if you think it is not possible, we also have a lot of errands to do. Tens of thousands of people... have learned
For doctors, you can go to the Huimin Administration, or you can work as a military doctor in the military logistics. With such an assignment, almost 10,000 people will disappear. There are also errands of building bridges and building roads, which will always be there. There are only tens of thousands of people, how can they be consumed?
It’s not consumption! With this group of people, the people’s corvee service can be reduced... Isn’t it good?”
If that's the case, I'm afraid more people would be willing to join the military. With the same hardship and suffering, one will never get ahead, while the other may have a chance to get ahead.
Lin Yutong laughed in his heart, that's what he wants! Go to the army, those who are truly brave enough to fight will naturally come forward! If you don't dare, then the war will not be directed at you, but the logistics support in the army also requires a lot of manpower. For example
Just transporting the red cannon is extremely labor-intensive. These people keep them smooth and smooth, go ahead! Go to the army to build city fortifications and transport equipment and supplies. The army has its own rules, but you are doing this in the palace.
, The army doesn’t recognize you! The army hates you people who eat meat and drink blood. Let’s see if they can deal with you.
"I hope that in a few years, when I come out of the palace, I can wear court clothes and walk into the Golden Palace." She pushed the list over, "Let's do it! I'll give you three more days to get everything done before the enthronement ceremony."
Those who stay will be kept, and those who want to go out will be sent out. If there are those who want to study medicine or plan to work as coolies, they will be gathered in an alley, and the guards will be assigned to guard them until they die. The remaining ones who plan to join the army will be divided into five groups...
...They were sent to the Jinyi Guards, the City Defense Camp, and the three major camps outside the city in the name of military training..."
This was to prevent these people from causing trouble, so they were dispersed and handed over to the military camp for custody.
Three more days passed like this. In the middle of the afternoon, a large number of eunuchs evacuated from the palace and collected the waist cards. Following the complete abolition of the old waist cards in the palace, new waist cards and new management were not achieved by manpower.
A thing.
For a while, the palace became much quieter.
Except for those who serve their masters, the rest of the palace ladies who plan to leave the palace are concentrated in one or two palaces, where they live in groups and manage them centrally. Doctors are invited to give lectures.
The same goes for the eunuchs. Except for those who stay in the palace, the rest are under centralized management and are not allowed to move around at will.
The 1,500 people who maintained the palace were quickly divided, and who was responsible for what was decided in advance. Even the area to be cleaned was the same. Several people worked in groups, and the responsibility was directly assigned to the person. If you were sick, someone
What kind of rules and regulations? There is no need to flatter anyone, the rules are here. How many clothes and one pair of shoes per season, how many meals per meal, how many daily necessities for half a year, where to go to see a doctor when you are sick, how much money you receive every month, okay?
Once you get it in your hand, you can record it in the account. If you are bullied, what are the ways to appeal? It’s all decided, so let’s implement it! What will be the reward if you work hard for five years? What will you be rewarded if you work ten years? How old can you be?
After you retire, where you will settle down and what kind of treatment you will enjoy will be stipulated.
This time, among the palace maids and eunuchs, there were more than 200 people over 50. These people were supported by the court and later moved out of the palace and into the nursing home. As the steward of the inner court, Zhou Bao had to go to the nursing home every ten days no matter how busy he was.
Any manager who dares to deprive or mistreat these people will be sentenced to death.
Make the palace rules clear and clear, and start studying them again.
Empress Zhang took the pamphlet of the new palace rules from the girl's hand and read it. After reading it, she said to Cui Shangyi: "It can be seen that people are different. I don't dare to do such a thing."
Cui Shangyi lowered his head and said, "My dearest lady, you...can enjoy the honor for the rest of your life."
While he was talking, a report came from outside, "The princess is here."
Empress Zhang stood up hurriedly and welcomed Lin Yutong in, "Brothers and sisters are here, sit down quickly. I know you are busy, why are you free to come here today?"
Lin Yutong glanced at Cui Shangyi, Cui Shangyi waved her hand, and all the waiters went out. After Cui Shangyi and others left, she followed.
Lin Yutong came here to ask Queen Zhang what she thought, "... In the palace, every day is just a day. I want to ask my sister-in-law what she thinks. What are your plans? No matter what you plan, as long as you speak,
I can do it all for you."
Queen Zhang was stunned for a moment, "...What does this mean?"
Lin Yutong held Queen Zhang's words, "It's lonely in the palace and life is difficult. If you don't want to, I will ask Queen Zhang to die of illness. From now on, the Lin family will have one more girl... But if you think the life in the palace can be passed, don't worry, then you can
Just live your life with peace of mind. A lifetime of prosperity, peace and security is my promise to you."
Empress Zhang finally came to her senses, and she smiled. She burst into tears as she smiled, "It's not easy for a woman in this world. If you get married, you will definitely have a good life. Although he is a little naive, he is kind-hearted and treats her well."
I feel pity for him. Now, he has lost someone close to him. If I abandon him again, who will I be? From now on, I will be content with him by accompanying him and doing what he likes to do."
Lin Yutong sighed, "Okay! Let's stay in the palace. Wang An is talented, but he is very careless. My sister-in-law should pay more attention to it in the future. The palace just needs a lot of tables, chairs, and benches, so the eldest brother can have some free time.
Okay? I really like my eldest brother’s craftsmanship! Besides, there are still many extremely confidential things that we may not trust if they are done elsewhere. In the future, how about asking eldest brother to do confidential things while my sister-in-law watches?
?”
confidential?
"Such as artillery models and firecracker models, these are all secrets." Lin Yutong whispered: "In this world, if you can't keep secrets even from you, how can there be any place that can be kept secret? I have only done these, I promise,
In the future, I will give my nephew a hereditary and irreplaceable prince title! Do you think so?"
Empress Zhang smiled immediately and squeezed Lin Yutong's hand hard. This relieved the most worrying layer in her heart! She immediately said: "September 16th, the enthronement ceremony, I will go with him!"
It is more justifiable to have the Zen position first and then to ascend the throne.
Cui Shangyi stood guard outside and could vaguely hear the conversation inside. This Princess Jian can always touch the softest place in people's hearts. No wonder she can always hit the target with one hit!
Look! You didn’t even mention the Zen position, but you got it done!
