Chapter 158 Do they think landlords are social elites?
Sun Chengzong quickly implemented the charity house and recruited masons and sanitation workers to do the basic sanitation and repair work in the capital.
For the imperial court, it was really easy to do, but none of the previous officials did it.
Because the standpoint is not about the people, and what we pay attention to is the people and the scholars among the people.
Seeing the poor people and homeless people who had fled to the capital to survive due to the war in Liaodong, Sun Chengzong was a little angry. However, he had seen a lot and knew that the people of Liaodong were already unstable. Once the military failed, some speculators began to
Betting on the fence and building slaves.
"If the people of Liaodong support the Ming Dynasty and win a military victory, the establishment of slaves will not cause too much trouble."
Sun Chengzong attached great importance to the morale of the military and the people, but he discovered that Emperor Tianqi valued it more than he did, and the future of the Ming Dynasty was bound to be rejuvenated.
That’s right!
He suddenly clapped his hands and remembered an important thing.
Within the Donglin Party, Yang Lian and others want to inquire about His Majesty's intelligence. I haven't reported the news to Yang Lian yet.
This news must be given, and it must influence more people in the Donglin Party to wake up.
Yang Lian, Donglin Party, and Xiong Tingbi basically have the same view.
Yang Lian sighed heavily, with a very sad expression on his face: "The key to war lies in the support of the people. People's support depends on the number, but on the quality of talents and the influence of the people. This move hurts the hearts of the landlords, but it may not win the support of the poor.
Support will not do any harm to the people's sentiments at the back line."
Some people are too young and impatient, others have some imaginary misunderstandings about His Majesty, and only a few are really stubborn.
In the previous small adaptation of the Beijing camp and the small investigation of the Ministry of Industry, Qian Qianyi also gave us coolness. Wu Hui led us to do things. It was so difficult to receive these two small gifts.
Yang Lian sighed.
The water was too hot, so he dared to go against Tianqi. He seemed very well-behaved in the court, but in his heart he was still insulted and looked down upon Tianqi.
Yang Lian also nodded. Of course, the reason I did the trick was for Qian Qianyi to rise again.
At that time, the Donglin Party came again. I really pretended to surrender and told us the reform ideas Tianqi told us. I heard that we wanted to follow every word.
The Donglin Party remembered another important piece of information: "Your Majesty sent Wei Zhongxian to take Tengxiang Right Guard to Liaodong."
Yang Lian, who had been Qian Qianyi before, appeared from behind. The censor Feng Bayuan and others thought that they were angry with Yang Lian and had already shown mercy to him, so they impeached Sun Chengzong in person.
Xiong Tingbi looked at Yang Lian, and Wu Huimei thought I knew the most about military matters.
"As you know, the departure was a month late, and a winter clothing supply was delivered."
In fact, we are very vague in our hearts.
I decided to "report" to Yang Lian and deliver positive news about Tianqi.
"This is a shocking reform. It does not bring any great benefits to the craftsmen and farmers, but it is a very short-sighted and superficial approach to make enemies of the outstanding elites among the people and seize the money of the untalented.
”
"Xiao Ru, don't tell me. What Zhu Youxiao said is really wrong, and those things are indeed true. However, those emperors often showed up lazy and lazy as soon as they finished making gestures." It's just that our own position is too stubborn, and it will take some time to surrender.
It’s not just that you are willing to accept the situation where Apocalypse dominates everything.
Do we also hope that Xiao Ming will be defeated? The idea of Xiao Ming's rebellion is not a natural landlord attitude, which makes us feel that Tianqi is going to mess up the people of Liaodong.
There are also Ye Xianggao, who had an old relationship with him back then, Zou Yuanbiao, who was outstanding in academics and will, Huang Zunsu, whose wisdom and thoughts are amazing...
Wu Huimei even shook her head and said: "There is no way to compare the popular sentiment of the poor people with the popular sentiment of the landlords and literati elites. That is to sacrifice the basic and pursue the last."
The eight people are all typical ancient landlords, literati and intellectuals. They naturally believe that landlords are social elites and the core force among the people.
That time, they were directly exterminated for murdering the emperor.
Yao Zongwen and his gang were generally poor, but I secretly contributed to the downfall of Sun Chengzong. In dealing with Concubine Zheng, Qian Qianyi and I worked together to make meritorious deeds.
"That's all. That time we wanted to punish the landlords and merchants in Liaodong. In name, it was to crack down on corruption and smuggling, but in reality, we were seizing the land of the nobles and turning it into imperial estates."
"My relatives, workers and peasants, scholars and scholars from far away. To put it bluntly, it is for money, but I am crazy about money. But it is for power, to take the power from the hands of talents and put it in my own hands."
Zuo Guangdou must be willing to let us bite Yang Lian and others now, and then let Qian Qianyi get involved in a small case.
Just now Wu Huimei and I listened to Wu Huimei's statement. Of course we also know that Tianqi's approach is not beneficial to the current situation, but will the new policy I introduced last? It is said that it will be abolished like Zhang Juzheng before, or it will be abolished by the officials like Wang Anshi.
The twist caused a small chaos in the court.
In fact, Wu Huimei in the early years of Tianqi was still as bad as in the Chongzhen period. Qian Qianyi elders Zou Yuanbiao, Zhao Nanxing and others, Donglin backbone Yang Lian, Donglin Party and others were all talents without certain abilities, and they were related to corrupt officials.
There is no mutual hatred.
"Yes, Your Majesty takes it too much for granted. Do you think that if you hurt the landlords and give some of our land and money to farmers and craftsmen, you can win the hearts and minds of the poor? You take it too much for granted." Wu Huimei thinks she can see people's hearts more clearly than Zuo Guangdou.
.
I am worried about the people of Liaodong and the current situation in heaven, so I want to praise Emperor Zuo Guangdou of Tianqi.
……
As a result, the profiteers behind our backs were carefully investigated, and Zuo Guangdou won the military morale of Sun Chengzong and the Liaodong army.
Wei Zhongxian, Wang Tiqian, Zhu Chunchen, Zhou Yingqiu and others thought so.
Xiong Tingbi gave Yang Lian a clear and logical analysis.
After sending Zhu Youxiao away, Yang Lian's expression turned gloomy.
"...Oh my, I'm addicted to ransacking homes, confiscating land for the royal family, and grabbing people's wealth!"
What kind of gift package will Qian Qianyi give you this time~
As soon as the imperial doctor case in Taichang was concluded, Yao Zongwen of the Zhejiang Party was fished out.
What's more important is that while confronting Qian Qianyi, I can fish out the other guys who should be eliminated most.
For example, his old friend Yuan Keli, who was a Jinshi in the same year, was appointed governor of Denglai this time. Like himself, he has close relations with some people in Donglin, and is regarded by outsiders as a member of the Donglin Party.
That’s what we think.
Wu Huimei had no other ideas.
Thanks to Dong Lin, Wang Wenyan and others for dancing happily. With me, Yao Zongwen, I will be able to slow down the poison~
Xiong Tingbi said: "Is this what the original plan was? You are going to praise, but remain friendly with the people who praise. Let us fight with the emperor first and tire each other out. When the critical moment comes a few days ago, you will dominate the public opinion and the court. The emperor also wants to sell your face."
For the ancients, especially for the literati, landlords were just people who did not do anything, and were elites outside society. As soon as they heard that Apocalypse was going to target landlords, they frowned.
When the water was too hot, I was quite unambitious, but I still persisted in Wu Huimei’s set of goals.
We are all stupid. We may not admire Emperor Tianqi now, but sooner or later we will realize the mind and courage of that young emperor.
