Chapter 206 King Qi has gray hair on his temples
Zhu Gaochi smiled bitterly: "It is the son's fault for not teaching his father. The son and minister are guilty and have caused trouble for the father."
Zhu Di glanced at him with deep eyes and did not answer.
Zhu Zhanji's rebellious words just now really hurt the old man's heart. His grandson, who he raised with his own hands, has now turned against him.
Because the fratricide brought about by power is the most hurtful sword in the world.
Zhu Gaochi sighed: "Dad, my son is unfilial and I won't hang out in front of you anymore. Ganzhou is a good place. My son will take revenge when he gets back tonight, and he will leave Beijing for Jiangxi tomorrow."
Seeing that the old man remained silent, Zhu Gaochi stood up with his hands on the stool, bowed and left.
When he walked to the palace gate, he looked back at the emperor with complicated eyes.
Once I leave, I'm afraid I'll never come back.
Zhu Gaochi knew his body well. Ever since he stepped down as the prince, he seemed to be breathing a sigh of relief. All the hidden diseases that had been hidden for many years broke out, attacking his heart, besieging his heart, and often coughing until late at night.
, vomiting blood without stopping.
"Military system, military system." Zhu Gaojie continued, "The military system in the two provinces of Goryeo and Yingzhou must be based on the Ming Dynasty's army to eliminate all hidden dangers..."
After leaving the door, Liu Rong couldn't help but ask: "How long has it been since the prince took a break? Why are you so tired?"
That's not diligence, that's stupidity.
The manor owners in the Japanese country had to pay a certain amount of rent to their families. The village officials, the manor owners, and the family formed a system that jointly exploited the villagers who were responsible for the labor in the manor. The villagers were called "zuoren" and "zhiren" in the Japanese country.
, "common people", they mainly come from bankrupt farmers in Pantian.
This young man, who is only in his twenties, has a handsome face and already has silver hair on his temples. He is sitting on a chair, holding his forehead with his hands and closing his eyes lightly. Just sitting quietly like this can make people feel happy.
I could feel the heavy fatigue on his body.
Although the old man has been carrying the pressure for him, if this continues, the old man will soon be unable to bear it.
He couldn't help feeling a little distressed when he thought of the many silver-white hairs between King Qi's temples.
Liu Rong couldn't help but gasped: "No wonder I see the prince is so tired, working so hard, even a hardened man has to fall down from exhaustion!"
Those years of being a prince had broken down his body and made him tense all the time.
Zhu Gaojie, who was far away in Yingzhou, did not understand what was happening in the capital. He was busy with the development of Yingzhou Province.
"Um."
Zhu Gaojie held a meeting in front of the high-level officials of Yingzhou Province in the capital of Yingzhou Province, and said seriously, "But our system in Yingzhou Province is reversed, developing from the grassroots to the top. The first thing to do is to consolidate the Japanese state."
The original system must be abolished, such as the original farmland system of the Japanese country, which was in a state of total chaos. If this situation continues, no matter how good the upper-level system is, it will fall apart one day."
Many landlords even organized their own landlord armed forces and raised a large number of private soldiers. At first, the members of these armies were served by village chiefs. Later, the feudal lords developed armies among the villagers as their personal soldiers, and enfeoffed the land to
They, in a vicious circle, created an unimaginable super-exploitation system that not only exploited the grassroots, but also had no power over the imperial court as their power expanded.
This is really outrageous.
In the large farms of the Japanese country, they were often not directly managed by the aristocratic gentlemen themselves, but had a general manager on the farm to manage them on their behalf, and they lived in the city and enjoyed the benefits.
It has been more than half a year since he went on the expedition, and Prince Qi's palace has laid a solid foundation in the Northeast. The prince's monopoly on military and political power outside will inevitably attract criticism.
"This is true."
The villagers brought their own production tools and cattle tools, rented the land from the manor owner in the form of tenancies, and bore very heavy taxes and corvees.
Zhu Gaojie nodded slightly and waved his hands tiredly: "In that case, then go ahead and do it, I won't send you away."
When the sphere of influence of Prince Qi's Mansion had expanded to Annan Province, Jianzhou Province, Koryo Province, and Yingzhou Province, Zhu Gaojie had already begun to spread power to his confidants.
The people below also need to eat. If he takes over everything, how can the people below just mess around with their performance? How can they work for you?
Comprehensive reform from the province, to the prefecture, to the county is not an easy task, but Zhu Gaojie always worked tirelessly to build his own kingdom on a new land and lay a solid foundation.
This system was originally used as a labor reform system. When the oppressed farmers in Japan learned about it, they came over with joy and wanted to work as miners!
Zhu Gaojie still underestimated the exploitation of the grassroots by these Japanese aristocratic landowners. Compared with these Japanese aristocratic landowners, he was simply a philanthropist!
The peasants of the Japanese country worked hard every day, forgetting to eat and sleep, getting up early and working hard. As a result, they could only get a small amount of compensation after a year. With such a small amount of compensation, they could survive on their own, let alone those farmers who had families to support.
Living in a dark world, all you can feel is coldness and despair, without a glimmer of light, you can only live numbly.
When Liu Rong walked to the door, he turned around and glanced at King Qi.
Lu Chaoyang cupped his fists and said: "80% of Honshu Island has been cleaned up. The Jin Yiwei is still covering the outside. It will definitely be rectified within two months."
He has seen with his own eyes how brave King Qi is on the battlefield. He is immediately invincible. He dances with a sword so powerfully that he is like a devil coming to the world. He has endless strength in his body. He can kill him with one punch through his helmet.
The person's head was beaten red and white, flying all over the place.
Returning to Beijing is inevitable, and it won't take long, but Zhu Gaojie must get rid of everything here before returning to Beijing. The two provinces of Goryeo and Yingzhou must be firmly controlled by Ming Dynasty.
…
Liu Rong nodded, understanding this deeply, "After your Majesty promoted the development of mining, in order to fully utilize manpower, all the hard-working monks from those temples were thrown away to mine. It was originally used as a work of labor reform for prisoners, but as a result
After the news spread, it actually attracted a large number of farmers, scrambling to save their lives and go mining."
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty." Liu Rong said seriously.
"When we were building institutions in Gunju and Koryo Provinces, we were generally accustomed to developing from the top to the grassroots. As the old saying goes, the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. In the same way, after the upper level institutional structure is stabilized, the lower level will follow the changes of the upper level.
And changes will lead to a more convenient and stable institutional structure."
The first batch of miners were prisoners of the shogunate defeated by Zhu Gaojie, members of the royal family, temple monks and other prisoners. They only had two meals a day, worked six hours a day, and worked under high pressure all year round.
"Our construction in Yingzhou Province is mainly focused on mining development. As long as you work, you will have food to eat. As long as you do well, you can support your family."
Lu Chaoyang said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, ever since we entered the Kyoto Palace of Japan, he has often stayed awake for two or three days in a row. Even if he takes a nap occasionally, he only sleeps for two or three hours. He just sits on a chair and sleeps with his armor on.
After opening my eyes, I was faced with mountains and mountains of paperwork again. Why do you think we can do things so easily? It was all the prince who worked hard to pave the way! The systems of the two provinces of Goryeo and Yingzhou were all done by him alone.
I wrote it without sleep!"
"Well." Zhu Gaojie looked at Lu Chaoyang again, "How did you go about cleaning up the noble landlords and temples?"
But King Qi's current demeanor clearly indicated that something was wrong with his weakness.
The general manager of the manor is called Zhuangguan, and this form of management is actually the landlord. In the Japanese country, manors are also dependent on each other. Although they are not called vassals, this relationship has emerged. Generally, landowners often voluntarily request big nobles.
The landlord protected him, willing to serve as his village official, and became the second landlord. The big aristocratic landowners often also looked for patrons among monks, nobles and powerful nobles with noble surnames. Such powerful nobles were called "benjia".
After learning that this happened, Zhu Gaojie thought for a moment and decided to expand the development of the mining area in Yingzhou Province. Anyway, the human resources are enough now. If he doesn't mine, it will be in vain.
Zhu Gaojie looked at Liu Rong, "I am responsible for coming up with the policy, and you are responsible for the specific implementation. I will not tell you the detailed arrangements one by one. Liu Rong, I will leave this matter to you. Before tomorrow morning, I will give you the specific plan.
Put it on my desk."
The entire army and all affairs revolve around Zhu Gaojie as the core. His orders are the king's law and his words are the rules of heaven. When power is given to one person, he stamps his feet and the entire Northeast is shaken. Now in this area
It is not only limited to Northeast China, but also includes Yingzhou Province. Being a dictator does not mean that you have to do everything yourself. Decentralization of power is inevitable. The Ming Dynasty is so big that one person cannot do everything even if he is exhausted.
Although he is still the leader and all the general plans are proposed by him, the specific content is completed and implemented by others.
Power is arsenic that hurts, but it is also a life-saving medicine.
Lu Chaoyang said: "Your Majesty, we are already doing it."
Everyone stood up, saluted him, and left one after another.
Liu Rong's throat moved slightly and he wanted to say something, but Lu Chaoyang held his shoulders and pulled him out.
"It must be cleaned up as soon as possible to keep these hidden dangers. Wanting to abolish the original system of the Japanese country will bring great resistance. Hurry up, we will not stay in Yingzhou for too long. The imperial court has already sent a letter
I'm urging you." Zhu Gaojie rubbed his brows.
When he was in Liaodong, he had never seen a single white hair on King Qi's head!
Liu Rong couldn't help but glared at Lu Chaoyang: "Old Lu, what you did was not very kind. Apart from that boy Su Wen, you are the one who works most diligently with the prince. Why don't you try to persuade the prince more?"
How can you work so hard, what if your body is exhausted?"
Lu Chaoyang smiled bitterly and said: "I persuaded him, but why didn't I persuade him? This is not the first time I told the prince to let him rest more. There is nothing I can do."
