Chapter 441 Those who benefit are what people want
Sanniangzi fled to the Ming Dynasty for refuge. After the war began, the conciliatory faction like her was the lackey of the Ming Dynasty on the grassland. In the Ming Dynasty, she used her submissiveness to deceive the saints. Listen, it’s hard to please both sides, so Sanniangzi simply chose to serve the Ming Dynasty completely.
But as soon as he entered the Ming Dynasty, Wang Chonggu, who had always been a treacherous minister, actually took out a book "Inviting the Farmers to Equalize the Fields". Wang Chonggu, he is really brave!
"Can you show me this memorial?" Sanniangzi was curious about what was written in this memorial that caused an uproar in the court.
"Miscellaneous newspapers are flying all over the place. They are all the contents of this memorial. I will ask someone to get you a few copies." Wang Qian did not mean to hide it, and he could not hide it. The content of Wang Chonggu's memorial The heat even overtook the Ming Dynasty's conquest of Anda Khan, because the pen editors criticized Wang Chonggu's memorial, word for word, sentence by sentence.
Am I sweating? He is just an old man, but Wang Chonggu is the biggest national thief in the Ming Dynasty!
Sanniangzi was reading the Di newspaper and Wang Qian with disbelief in her eyes. As a representative of the reconciliation faction, Sanniangzi has an extremely close relationship with the Jin Party. Since Ma Fang was in In the thirty-fifth year of Jiajing, after Anda Khan was prevented from entering the capital again, the war between the Ming Dynasty and Anda Khan gradually evolved into a declaration that the Ming Dynasty would support the invaders in self-respect.
Sanniangzi, Anda Khan, and Anda Khan’s ten thousand households are all bandits raised by the Jin Party. In order to intimidate the bandits of the imperial court, whenever the imperial court wanted to deal with the Jin Party, the Jin Party would relax its border defenses and let the Jin Party relax. The imperial court loosened the bridle, and until Zhang Siwei was executed by his clan, the imperial court still could not eradicate the deep-rooted Jin Party, leaving Wang Chonggu alone.
Now, Wang Chonggu has become a loyal minister? This is when the sun comes out in the west.
All the things Wang Chonggu did before can actually be summarized as making money, arranging gangsters and sparse government factories. However, Wang Chonggu’s political capital and the dividend of the woolen official factory were only reduced to a fixed 10,000 yuan last year. Silver, and the dividends from Kaihai Investment became the bulk.
Wang Chonggu was a treacherous minister before, so it is not the fault of the courtiers, because in the process of fulfilling his promise, Wang Chonggu really made crazy money. It is not unfair to say that he was recruiting treacherous ministers.
Sanniangzi is a smart person and quickly understood the changes in the Jin Party led by Wang Chonggu. The reason why Wang Chonggu became a person who was free from low-level tastes was because he had too many low-level interests. .
As a first-class lady canonized by the imperial court, Sanniang Zi is very familiar with the political situation of the Ming Dynasty. She was able to stand aside from Anda and establish Guihua City. On the one hand, she had the strong support of the grassland reconciliation faction. The biggest reason was the support of the Ming Dynasty court. Canonization.
Wang Chonggu's memorial has a total of 1,400 words. It is a majestic article similar to "The Placement of Gangsters". It analyzes the current predicament of the Ming Dynasty from phenomena and problems to causes and methods. It's not a fool, it's a sharp knife that kills cow ghosts and snake gods.
What surprised Sanniangzi was that Wang Chonggu’s Wang family was not a part of the demons and demons. This knife can kill cows, ghosts, and snakes, and it can also kill Wang Chonggu and his entire family.
Zhang Juzheng was very hesitant about the one whip method, which was to collect silver uniformly across the country, rather than one whip method that levied silver for some and grain for others.
At this time, Yuan Fu was very hesitant because he knew that the development of various regions in the Ming Dynasty was uneven. If the silver was directly collected, the total amount of silver in the Ming Dynasty would still not be able to support the stable operation of a whip method, and it would become harmful to the people. Bad government does not implement a whip, and a chaotic tax system is also a sickle that cuts to the people.
Zhang Juzheng has never been able to make up his mind to implement a whipping method nationwide.
In history, Zhang Juzheng fully implemented a whipping method in the ninth year of Wanli because at that time, Zhang Juzheng did not have much time and he was in a hurry. The storm in December of the eighth year of Wanli made Zhang Juzheng realize , the emperor disliked him, so he implemented the decree very anxiously.
Zhang Juzheng is not in a hurry now, he plans to take his time.
At this critical moment, Wang Chonggu took out "Asking for the Equalization of Fields".
This memorial begins with Tang Long, the Minister of War in the eleventh year of Jiajing. Tang Long was a Jinshi in the third year of Zhengde, and was appointed as the magistrate of Tancheng. He also served as governor of Fengyang Prefectures, and became Minister of the Ministry of War in the 11th year of Jiajing. Tang Long was one of the important figures in the Jiajing New Deal and the fiscal and taxation reform.
Tang Long was aware of many problems in Jiangxi and tried the land equalization method for a period of time in Jiangxi.
As Master Dao moved into Xiyuan and ignored the government affairs, all the achievements of the New Deal in the early years of Jiajing were liquidated, and the 'land equalization service' became a flash in the pan.
Wang Chonggu said in the memorial:
I have no ability to assist the Yuan Dynasty, let alone the integrity of the general constitution. I have stolen the position of the head of the execution hall and am ashamed to be a minister of the imperial court. I cannot stand up to the master. , die in order to benefit the people, describe the heart of measuring virtue and ability, reduce the blame of the corpse's plain meal, examine old cases to hear the wisdom of the predecessors, a fool suddenly finds something after thinking for a long time, the minister is afraid that the minister will make a mistake, it is like listening to the cries of the people's complaints. Su Su was frightened and worried. I heard that all the cud and grass fields were offered to the king. I waited for the guilty officials to steal their duties and could not correct the situation. I was ashamed to die without a place. Therefore, the insects mourned in the evening, hoping to get a clear warning from the Holy One.
I would like to report that since Your Majesty Fu Wei came to the throne and ascended to the throne, he had neglected sleep and food and continued to work night and night. He was the ancestor of Taizu who was resolute and brave and did not avoid the cold and heat. His virtues and virtues for the people were praised by Renzong. Acting benevolently in order to express the friendship between relatives is a kind of filial piety, and Yingjian has long-standing wisdom. Most of them are a kind of Shizong. When ministers hear that the king is wise, he will follow them and try their best to eliminate all bad government. Ministry, be cautious in all matters involving the state. The only way to travel on the high road is to be clear about rewards and punishments, and to be benevolent. Since ancient times, there is no one who can be called a wise king and a wise ruler than Hongyi. Fortunately, with the protection of the ancestors, if the great sage comes out, the world will be bright.
The general meaning of this paragraph is that Wang Chonggu found out from the old cases of the Jiajing period that Tang Long had done the work of equalizing the land. He thought it was useful, so he remonstrated, and then he became Chelulu's flattery.
[Tang Long's memorial during the Jiajing period]
Zhu Yijun thought it was flattery, but the ministers did not think so. Zhang Juzheng, Wang Guoguang and others also wrote the same on the floating notes.
Zhang Juzheng does not think that this great sage’s comment is excessive.
His Majesty’s actions after he ascended the throne are obvious to all. Is any of Wang Chonggu’s words false? He didn't stay overnight, listened to the roosters dancing, didn't avoid the cold and summer to practice martial arts, paraded the army horses every day, and never stopped taking a day off for only 24 days a month. He supported the Qing Dynasty and returned the land to the sea, and he was very good to his younger brother. Zhu Yiyi has a copy of the auspicious model, and the emperor's uncle Zhu Zaiyu is still in the court. The crazy man speaks without hesitation, and his majesty never blames him.
It was this paragraph that was criticized by the editors of major Ming newspapers, saying that Wang Chonggu, a treacherous minister, was indeed a treacherous minister! Your Majesty is only nineteen years old, and he has already begun to seduce Your Majesty with evil words!
It was so unpleasant for scholars to curse others, so much so that Wang Qian, who had always been known as a family of traitorous ministers, even complained about his father.
It’s no wonder that scholars scolded Wang Chonggu so much. It was because Wang Chonggu had a transcendent status. Such a memorial really made the matter so clear that it was scary.
Wang Chonggu said in his memorial: Today, under the Great Tomorrow, famous families are annexing the world. Every time when the imperial court makes a register, they will pay bribes to reduce the number of acres registered in the fish scale register. This is called Feisha, even the Ming Dynasty who was under the imperial examination was like this.
In addition to reducing the number of acres registered, the biggest problem is Yin Ding, which Wang Chonggu calls Huosa.
Some people are hiding and running away from the household, which is a dead letter; some are separated but have no registered residence, this is called a strange letter; some clearly have arms and legs but are settled in a strange household, this is called a strange letter; Although he has great fame and fame, he is alone, with no parents, brothers, or wives. This is called not returning. In a family with official status, he is the only one, and it is difficult to fool him so he adopts an adopted son. This is called Baona. To fabricate one's servants, there are obviously hundreds of people, but there is only one servant in the register, this is called fabrication;
But some common people's families are obviously on the verge of ruin, but the records are neat and tidy A family is called Kongying; people who are so desperate that they can't even cultivate land yet have several hectares of fertile land at home are called Fumo.
The biggest problem with this kind of hiding method is that it makes it impossible for the court to collect the annual taxes. For the money owed by large households, the government officials can only force the small people to pay compensation.
If the common people cannot afford compensation, they have no choice but to flee. The county government has no choice but to ask Li Zheng to fill the hole. If Li Zheng cannot afford compensation, he has no choice but to flee. In the end, it falls on the grain chief. Assigned to be the chief of grain, the family even mourned like a funeral, and the elder and younger cried to each other and expressed condolences to relatives. They would rather serve in the army than be the chief of grain.
This is still the chief of grain, so what should the common people do? I'm afraid I won't even have the chance to cry in mourning.
That's why Wang Chonggu said: It's like listening to the people's complaints and cries, and being frightened and worried.
What’s even more frightening is that the taxes of the Ming Dynasty include land tax and corvee, which is the poll tax. The reason why big households want to stay in hiding is to save the poll tax. But if the court wants to collect the poll tax, it must punish the small ones harshly. People.
Profit is what people want.
This is the problem, and it is also the second place where Wang Chonggu was reviled. You clearly said that under the leadership of His Majesty, the country was peaceful and the people were safe, but why did you suddenly change your pen and say that the Ming Dynasty was seriously ill? It is clear that the country is about to be subjugated. Isn't it just to scare the emperor and seize power that Wang Chonggu exaggerates the hidden people and dangers in this way?
Wang Chonggu, you treacherous minister!
Zhu Yijun attaches great importance to the issue of Yin Ding. Wang Chonggu said at first that the country is peaceful and the people are safe, but later that the country is in danger of being destroyed. It seems that the head and the rat are at both ends. This is a dialectical method based on the theory of contradiction. His Majesty has done a lot , this is obvious to all, but there are still some crises that need to be seen under the water.
Zhu Yijun does not think Wang Chonggu is a traditional treacherous official. Wang Chonggu is very aware of the power of this memorial. He is really worried. If His Majesty feels that he has done a good job and is too lazy to continue to reform the past, he This memorial is a life-threatening knife.
After Wang Chonggu explained clearly his motivation for submitting the letter, the phenomenon of hiding, various means of hiding and the crisis caused, he further elaborated.
The dangers of Yin Ding also include the destruction of grassroots organizations and the complete destruction of the Li Zheng Liang Chang system, which resulted in the basic fact that the imperial power of the Ming Dynasty did not go to the countryside.
In addition to the destruction of the system, there are also worries about population growth. Since the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, there has been no growth in Dingkou. Naturally, there have been constant disasters during the two hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, but there is no crisis of national destruction. How come it is now? Is it still the same as before, with a population of ten million, and it has been stable for so many years? It's the problem caused by Yin Ding.
Productivity is man’s ability to change nature, and talent is the subject. If there are fewer people, how can we produce? How to develop? Ming Dynasty was like a dragon trapped in a ditch, unable to move.
Having a child = corvee = poll tax = housebreaking, who is willing to give birth?
Mr. Yuan Fu said: The world is trapped in annexation. Wang Chonggu said: The world is trapped in annexation.
Mergers have shaped the class, while exploitation has made the class as stable as a mountain.
Wang Chonggu also quoted the lessons of the destruction of Rome. The Romans were unwilling to have children and even fled to the barbarians to avoid taxes. In the end, there were fewer and fewer Romans and they were wiped out by the barbarians. No matter how much the Roman emperor encouraged fertility , unable to obtain the basic population, and eventually perished.
Gao Qiyu, Ligas and others have translated many Thai and Western books. Wang Chonggu also likes to read these overseas stories. Rome is the first time of the Western world, but Rome perished and never returned like lightning.
After clearly explaining and understanding the harm of Yin Ding, Wang Chonggu talked about his efforts. As the Minister of Punishment, he tried to change this situation.
I have tried to clean up the legislation, but although I have not achieved any success in reforming it, there has been a slight improvement in regulation, which is what people who are afraid of strict laws are afraid of. The law is easy to break. It is a crime to deceive and hide grain from the fields according to the regulations of the ministers. If the fields are filled with rods and entered into the official, the tax and grain deceived will be collected according to the amount. If someone sends or insinuates it and receives it, the crime will be the same.
Wang Chonggu tried to add the crime of defrauding farmland to the "Daming Huidian" that was being compiled, and implemented it. However, if the law is strict, it will cause harm, and if the law is not strict, it will be easy to commit the crime. In the past few years, Wang Chonggu, with this intensity, After constant adjustments, the results were still not achieved, which made Wang Chonggu anxious.
Wang Chonggu was a businessman before he passed the imperial examination. He traveled all over the country, to the grasslands and to the south of the Yangtze River. Although the water and soil were different, they all had the same problems. If people are upright and people are not upright, then it is government, but the law does not have a good way in this matter.
Wang Chonggu got inspiration from Tang Long’s ‘Method of Equalizing Field Service’ and suddenly had an idea: Why should the number of young men be linked to the head tax?
After conducting a thorough census, the poll tax was spread directly among the acres, and then the poll tax on the acres was no longer increased. While encouraging births, a large number of land taxes and labor services were merged into land taxes. On the other hand, reduce excessive levies and miscellaneous taxes and cleverly created names.
The One Whip Law that Zhang Juzheng has been thinking about can also be implemented. If the One Whip (editing) Law can be effectively implemented, simplifying the tax items is the basis. If the head tax is not spread to the fields, I am afraid that the One Whip Law will be implemented. It is nothing more than a mirror, and no matter how well-designed the system is, it cannot be implemented.
In this regard, Ming Dynasty weightlifting champion Zhang Juzheng commented: Wang Cifu is right.
When Zhang Juzheng discussed a whipping method with the emperor before, he said: Only when the two differences of silver and strength are combined with the household registration and salt banknotes can it be done.
This is where Zhang Juzheng was most hesitant about the whipping method. Wang Chonggu used the method of equalizing the land labor to combine the money, labor force, household registration, etc. into the acres.
"Your father is still suitable to be a traitor. His book "Please share the land with the servants" is of no benefit. Tang Long, who reformed the common government, died before he left the capital." Sanniangzi looked at Wang Qian Speak out your true inner thoughts.
Tang Long, Sanniangzi knew about it, because this man once took charge of the military affairs of the three sides and was a strong enemy of the Northern Lu. When Tang Long took charge of the three sides, the commander-in-chief Wang Xiao and Liang Zhen led their troops to repel the invading tribes, and even We also went deep into Lianke Shuzhai in Hetao. Tang Long, the Minister of the Ministry of War, was one of the representatives of the reform of the common government in the early years of Jiajing. After the Taoist god disappeared, the reform lost its greatest support, and Tang Long was dismissed. The people, the chariot driver had not left the capital, and died in the hotel.
It is not beneficial for Wang Chonggu to do this. Everything he has done before is beneficial to himself and the Jin Party, and he can make a lot of profits. This is why the Jin Party supports Wang Chonggu. , if a little bit is exposed between the fingers, it will be enough for the Jin party and Shanxi merchants to eat.
For example, recently, the Jin party was the first to know that Sanniang entered the customs with wool, and Wang Chonggu just did some operations, and the Shanxi merchants wielded their sickles and had a full meal, and they didn't even need to Whatever Wang Chonggu did, he only needed to spread the news.
Wang Chonggu has always been like this. On the one hand, he is serious about internal affairs and purging the party, and there are people like Qiao Bixing and Bai Zhili of Yangcheng who are merciless. On the other hand, he also unites those who can unite. , willing to leak some information to make people willing to follow him.
However, the method of equalizing farm work has no benefit at all, and it is even harmful to a family like the Wang family.
“Well, being too rich is also a kind of trouble.” Wang Qian said with a painful expression. He was really in pain. He wanted to do something because his family was too rich, so he could only How could he not worry about losing money?
Sanniang Zi pointed to the door and said sternly: "That door is over there!"
Sanniang Zi still owes His Majesty 120,000 taels of silver and has not repaid it. As a result, Wang Qian is here crying about being rich. Who can bear it? He really deserves a beating.
"Okay! Let's go!" Wang Qian left in a staggering manner. His task was completed, the wool was successfully put into the warehouse, and Sanniang was settled in Huitongguanyi. He wanted to continue his rich and young career. Now that life is over, go to Taibai Tower to buy flower baskets and scatter money!
At this time, in the West Flower Hall of the Imperial Study Room of Tonghe Palace, Zhu Yijun stood in front of the huge Kanyu map and put a small red label on the Guanshan forum. Li Rusong, Ma Gui, Wang Rulong, Chen Dacheng, etc. The people surrounded the ranch in Haizi, Jining, and completely drove Anda Khan's ten thousand households out of Jining. Then Li Rusong went all out and pursued them to the Guanshan Forum.
The Guanshan Forum is a place where Tatars from the left and right wings can discuss matters. Whenever there are major issues, they will discuss it here. Since the right wing moved eastward, the Guanshan Forum has never been used again. Now the Ming Dynasty has occupied this place and changed its name to Guanshan Forum. The mountain beacon tower is mainly responsible for watching the enemy.
Qi Jiguang was making camp step by step. Every time he captured a place, he would definitely set up camp. He would survey the map using triangulation mapping, check the hydrology, and determine the mountain topography. If he was defeated, he would find a suitable place to escape back to the Ming Dynasty.
"Very good, Qi Shuai is mighty." Zhu Yijun clasped his hands behind his back and stared at the Kanyu map with bright eyes. He thought, Dongshengwei can advance to Anda Khan's king's account. The board has been promoted. Of course he I just thought about it and had no intention of giving an order.
War is always a matter of involving the whole body, command? How can a conductor lie down comfortably? It is enough for Zhu Yijun to wave the flag and shout to strengthen his momentum.
The Ming Dynasty actually did not have high requirements for the emperor. Not causing trouble was the greatest gift. It was not the time when the Ming Dynasty needed to use force to rule the world.
"The cavalry of the grassland people is not as powerful as the cavalry of the Central Plains." Zhu Yijun is familiar with the battle reports. The cavalry of the Ming Dynasty, especially the cavalry of the established system, has an exaggerated casualty ratio of one to ten. Five barbarians, in Qiying, one man is equivalent to ten barbarians.
The equipment of the cavalry camp is too advanced. There are very few Hu people wearing armor. Everyone in the Ming cavalry camp wears armor, and every three people in the cavalry camp have a pair of iron armor, and the other two have cloth armor.
Zeng Shengwu said: "General Ma often said that there are not many skilled cavalry camps. It seems to be true. The Hulu come and go like the wind. The principle of the Ming army entering the grassland is that there will be no support at the front or rear. Now with this Ten thousand cavalry, three cavalry battalions, both offensive and defensive, the Hulu will never show off their aggression."
When setting up the cavalry battalion, Zhu Yijun asked Ma Fang, how many cavalry battalions are appropriate? Ma Fang said that 10,000 people would be enough.
Zhu Yijun asked again, when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty organized a 100,000 cavalry battalion before launching the decisive battle in Mobei, was 10,000 really enough?
Ma Fang did not explain in detail, but just said that it was enough.
Facts have proved that it is indeed enough. The Ming Dynasty's infantry and chariot camps are not helpless against the prairie cavalry. The large number of firearms allows the Ming army to complete the Ming Dynasty without excessively pursuing the number of cavalry. strategy.
Ma Fang and Zeng Shengwu have very similar views. Ma Fang, who was born in Xuanda University, believes that the grassland is now much colder than that of the Qin and Han Dynasties, and the number of people that the grassland can carry is declining. It is a national policy of the Ming Dynasty to develop both land and sea. It will not change, but there are priorities. Right now, opening up the sea is the key direction of expansion.
Ma Fang and Zeng Shengwu actually did not make it so clear. The Beijing camp is now in charge of conquest, and its biggest role is to maintain imperial power.
"Qi Shuai returned to the court with a memorial and killed three Shanxi merchants, Sheng Kui, Sheng Lu, and Zhao Dejin. It rained three days ago. These three merchants were greedy and went on business with the army, and they went on a massive extortion. Prices have been beheaded to show the public." Zhang Juzheng looked at Wang Chonggu and talked about the front line.
These are all Shanxi merchants who went out with the army.
"Kill well, and death is not a pity." Wang Chonggu said directly, not giving Zhang Juzheng a chance to attack. The Shanxi Party is very large, and there are many Shanxi merchants. It is not surprising that there are a few scum, and death is not a pity. , Wang Chonggu warned him repeatedly, if you don’t listen to his advice, you deserve to die.
Where is the front line? It is a place where people are killed, a place where conflicts are most intense, a battlefield where we and the enemy can be clearly distinguished. Doing such tricks on the battlefield will shake the morale of the troops. If they don't die, who will die?
When the Ming Dynasty went on an expedition, it was not just a matter of adding a few banners and tents, which was just a joke. On the contrary, an expedition was a very cumbersome matter. With more than 10,000 people, it was a natural society and a moving town. , a large-scale army will naturally give birth to society and markets.
In addition to the merchants accompanying the army, there are also postmen accompanying the army, prostitutes accompanying the army camp, civilian husbands accompanying the army, etc. These all belong to the auxiliary camps of the rear army.
There are no prostitutes accompanying the military camp in the Jingying camp. This is Qi Jiguang's request. It is out of consideration for maintaining military discipline. The main reason is that the military pay in the Jingying camp of the Ming Dynasty is high, so the requirements are also high. The Jingying camp is not an ascetic. After returning to his hometown in triumph, he will not It is Qi Jiguang's requirement to take military pay home and waste it on women's bellies to avoid violating military law, but not to be promiscuous while marching.
For the sake of full pay of eighteen taels of silver per year, the regulations were implemented.
After reading the memorial, Zhu Yijun can only say that he deserves to die. It has been a long time since the Ming Dynasty went out to fight, especially on the Western Front. Everyone is uneasy and is a little anxious about the outcome. In order to compete for and obtain the military gains cheaply, these merchants took advantage of the rain to make noises about road blockage and supply difficulties, hoarded goods, drove up prices, and spread rumors.
Just shaking the morale of the army was enough for Qi Jiguang to pull out the sword given by the emperor and kill people. Qi Jiguang was a military god outside the Great Wall, but he was extremely cautious inside. He also conducted a careful investigation and found out that these three merchants, It's Tongfan, which means colluding with thousands of households in Anda Khan's account to deliberately create trouble.
“This is from Jin.” Zhang Juzheng said seriously.
Wang Chonggu shook his head and said: "No more. I told them before leaving: the only way to go out is to measure the victory of the Ming Dynasty. If it is a loss for the national economy, I will make up for it myself. If it is not for the national economy, I will be a traitor to the country."< br>
"My requirements are not high. When they fight, they should not be disobedient. They can't do this, so they should."
If you don't listen to the party leader, then you are not his party, no If you safeguard the interests of Ming Dynasty, you are not a Ming Dynasty person. The truth is very correct, but most of the time, everyone still puts the interests of fellow villagers, classmates, and party members first, putting private interests first before public affairs. This is the choice in most cases. Wang Chonggu does not want to build the Jin Party into a people-oriented society. Wang Chonggu himself is not a moral model of loyalty to the emperor and the country. He only asks that everyone should not forget their own positions and not be disobedient during the war.
If there is something missing in the Beijing camp, causing losses, Wang Chonggu will still make up for it.
This is really not a high requirement.
"That's it." Zhang Juzheng stopped pursuing. Wang Chonggu had indeed confessed that Wang Chonggu was very powerful against the Qing Party. It was indeed difficult for the three Shanxi merchants to implicate Wang Chonggu.
Zhang Juzheng is a little nostalgic. Wang Chonggu is now difficult to deal with. When Zhang Juzheng wanted to deal with Wang Chonggu, it was really three punches and two kicks.
Wang Chonggu is difficult to deal with, so it is difficult to deal with him. Since he is a Xunli, it is really useful.
"Sir, what do you think of "Asking for the Equalization of Fields"?" Zhu Yijun's reply to Qi Jiguang's memorial: kill first and report later, act cheaply, and only hope that Qi Shuai will return in triumph.
Zhang Juzheng bowed his head and said: "I think it is very good, let Wang Cifu preside over it."
"Your Majesty, I can't do it." Wang Chonggu immediately replied, admitting in this matter Your own incompetence will not arouse ridicule. It takes a lot of courage to dare to say these three words, "Jin Tian Yong".
Usually, whoever proposes it is the one who implements it, but that is the usual situation. As for the land equalization law, Wang Chonggu really does not have the ability to analyze the problem and give solutions. He can do it, but let him go In practice, that’s really impressive.
If nothing else, how much support can His Majesty give him? His Majesty gave full support to Zhang Juzheng's new policy, and Mr. Yan's mistakes were punished. Can Wang Chonggu get such support?
The Jin Party forced the emperor to live in Tonghe Palace, and the empress dowagers of the two palaces no longer lived in the palace.
How treasonous is this?
They are still alive and breathing, because Jin Dang made a U-turn in time.
(End of this chapter)
