Longevity begins with Jinyiwei

Individuals, a small number of people, cannot resist a landlord class that completely covers the entire world!

At this point in his thoughts, Li Xiu couldn't help but think deeply about how to solve this problem that has plagued this nation for thousands of years.

No, it was only a moment of deep thinking, and Li Xiu suppressed his thoughts in his heart.

This problem that has plagued this nation for thousands of years has already been solved in the history he knows.

Hundreds of years from now, there will be a red sun in the east, and with unprecedented courage, it will destroy everything, tear down and rebuild!Completely solve this problem that has plagued this nation for thousands of years!

"Ah……"

At this point in his thoughts, Li Xiu suddenly smiled.

All the problems, it seems, have returned to the origin again.

Does he have the courage to wash the world with blood?

Is he capable of all this?

Li Xiu has no doubt that even if there is no such thing now, there will be one sooner or later.

But, if he has courage and capital, can he do it?

What name does he use?

Duke Qin?

He, who will implement it?

Those civil servants in Ming Dynasty who represented the landlord class?

Can……

In this kind of major event that changes the world, he can still maintain the mess, and at the same time fight wits and courage with the people in the mess, and endure the delay of most people in the mess, and even stab the knife, and then complete this task A major event that changes the world?

Idiots are talking about dreams, wishful thinking!

Or, he, Li Xiu, wants to let go of this hidden danger and continue.

Like the founders of all dynasties, waiting for the predictable slow death?

No, he is not yet a slow death, he, or Da Ming, is already on the verge of death.

Even if he completes the military reform and fiscal and taxation reform, if he does not solve this problem, at most, it will be nothing but a glory before the end.

In other words, he used his own strength to defy the general trend, suppress the world, and exchange the lives of countless people slaughtered by the blade in exchange for decades of national fortune that continued for the Ming Dynasty.

In the end, people perish and the country is destroyed, leaving behind the so-called eternal fame!

"Let's go!"

Li Xiu stood up slowly, waved his hands feebly, and his expression was unprecedentedly gloomy.

The guards on the side were also a little at a loss. In their impression, their general always seemed to be strategizing, and everything seemed to be under his control.

It seems that he has never been so low and lonely!

"These are for you!"

A relative took out a bag of broken silver and threw it to the middle-aged man who was kneeling on the ground at a loss, and then hurriedly followed.

Li Xiu walked out of this dilapidated thatched hut, outside the house,

The north wind howled, rolling up snowflakes flying all over the sky.

Li Xiu stopped his steps slowly and stood still, his stomach was covered with wind and snow in an instant, and his blood-colored cloak fluttered wantonly, just like the mess in Li Xiu's heart at the moment.

A general stepped forward cautiously, and put a fox fur coat on Li Xiu's body, and then consciously stepped aside, standing silently in the wind and snow, like withered sculptures.

"Your family used to live like this!"

Li Xiu turned around and looked at the dozens of guards standing behind him, as if he was telling a fact, he spoke slowly.

"Returning to the general, the last general was once a tenant of the landlord's family. However, the landlord at that time was not so inhumane. The rent was [-] to [-]. Life was hard, but he could barely survive."

"It's all right now, just the general's salary is enough to feed and clothe the general's family..."

"Reporting to the general, the last general's family are all tenants of the landlord's family. The landlord is even more vicious than this one. The renter took nine out of ten, and he dragged the last general's brother to serve in corvée. The last brother died in the corvee. That landlord, simply does not give people a way to live..."

"Report to the general..."

One by one, the personal guards replied one after another. Of the dozens of personal guards he carefully trained, only a few of them belonged to farmers or wealthy families. The rest, without exception, were born as tenants. The only exception was Landlords exploit more, and less!

After listening to the last guard's statement, Li Xiu was silent for a long time before asking in an uncertain tone:

"Do you think this governor can solve this problem?"

"Definitely!"

"The general can definitely solve it!"

Almost unanimously speaking, the fanatical eyes without the slightest doubt also clearly expressed the true inner thoughts of all the guards present.

Looking around at the frenzied eyes, Li Xiu was suddenly speechless. After a while, a smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth. This smile became more and more intense, and his eyes were like never before The past is clear and firm.

"Go, go back to Beijing!"

Li Xiu got on his horse, pulled his whip, and raised his horse's hooves high. In the wind and snow, surrounded by all the horsemen, he headed for the Daming capital in a mighty way!

Chapter 339 Cooling heart.

The sky was dark and the wind and snow were blowing.

The majestic and towering capital of the Ming Dynasty has already been covered with a layer of silver.

Amidst the wind and snow flying and raging, there were iron cavalry galloping, galloping forward on horseback.

The guards of the Beijing Army were about to step forward to intercept them, but soon someone reacted and shouted non-stop. The soldiers withdrew and refused to horses, and hurriedly evacuated the crowd at the city gate, allowing the gate to be opened, and the cavalry rushed into the city.

The news of Qin Gong's return to the capital was also spread rapidly to the capital while the cavalry was rushing, and it was heard by everyone who cared.

Appeal!

The cavalry galloped to the outside of Duke Qin's mansion, shouting suddenly, all the guards got off their horses and stood aside.

Wang Wu, the steward of the mansion, also trotted over immediately, completely ignoring his old and weak body, and patting the snow on Li Xiu's armor and cloak attentively.

"Duke Qin!"

At this time, in the wind and snow, Li Ruolian, who had arrived at Duke Qin's mansion and waited at some time, also came up to meet him.

Seeing this, Li Xiu took off the fox fur he was wearing, handed it to Queen Wu, and then walked towards the mansion, and Li Ruolian followed closely behind.

"What happened?"

It wasn't until the lobby that Li Xiu stopped and turned to look at Li Ruolian who was following behind him.

"The head of the state has repeatedly wooed courtiers secretly, and accepted people with ulterior motives..."

"Mr. Qin, when you left Beijing this time, the Empress Dowager summoned several courtiers, and Mao Wenlong, the left governor of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, was also summoned twice by the Empress Dowager..."

Between words, Li Ruolian also handed over the detailed records of these information to Li Xiu.

However, to Li Ruolian's surprise, Duke Qin in front of him just took a cursory glance, and put aside the information that could be said to be a disaster.

"I have a mission for you."

Just when Li Ruolian was a little confused, Li Xiu's voice sounded.

Li Ruolian immediately responded sternly:

"I also ask Mr. Qin to order!"

"Specialize someone to specialize in this task, and send someone to count all the households with more than [-] acres of land in all parts of Daming today."

"The list is updated all the time, and it is guaranteed to be the latest list at any time."

"This matter should be carried out in secret, so as not to make the city full of wind and rain!"

Hearing this, Li Ruolian was also taken aback for a moment, and then couldn't help showing embarrassment, hesitated for a while, and then said:

"The amount of work involved is huge, and Jinyiwei may not be able to complete it!"

"Take Ben Du's note and go to the internal funds to collect 50 taels of silver as ad hoc expenses. If there are personnel, the Ben Du will transfer some of them from the bank to carry out the specific implementation. You can handle it yourself."

As far as this is concerned, Li Xiu said again: "Remember, assign people to special tasks, grasp the selection of personnel, the progress can be slower, and there is no rush, but it must not make the city full of storms, everyone knows!"

"Subordinates obey!"

Hearing Li Xiu's serious tone, Li Ruolian bit the bullet and accepted the order.

Duke Qin never does useless things, but this matter...

Li Ruolian couldn't figure it out, but also didn't dare to think about it.

"You can do things with peace of mind, the governor will never treat anyone who has merit!"

However, Li Xiu suddenly said something meaningful, which made Li Ruolian's heart tremble, and cold sweat oozed down his back.

"Duke Qin, don't worry, your subordinates will never fail Duke Qin's expectations!"

Li Ruolian hurriedly bowed and expressed his loyalty without hesitation.

"Well, let's start this matter as soon as possible!"

"Subordinates obey!"

Li Ruolian took the order and responded, and then left.

Li Xiu stood in the lobby, staring at Li Ruolian who left in the wind and snow, his eyes flickered slightly.

In this world, there has never been loyalty without reason,

He walked all the way, and most of those who finally came together with him were the existences he personally cultivated. Naturally, from the very beginning, they were on the same front as him, and there were also people like Li Ruolian. , and the later defectors can barely be regarded as a chain of interests.

But compared to the purity of the interest group he created by himself, a latecomer like Jin Yiwei is undoubtedly much more complicated.

Even though he used the assassination of the emperor to almost smash and reassemble the entire Jinyiwei.

But obviously, as long as the existence that has lasted for hundreds of years is not completely overthrown, it is difficult to avoid the existence of some of them.

Taking advantage of this time, it seems that I can see how many impure people there are...

Of course, if we talk about complete purity, even if his subordinates are brave and noble, it is impossible.

It's like he ordered to count the landowners of the fields. He, Li Xiu, is a landlord. Most of his generals are also landlords, and Li Ruolian is also a landlord.

It's just that they have formed a new interest group headed by him, and their current main interests are not above the land.

But it can be predicted that, given the environment of the great era, his interest group will ultimately focus on the fields. This is due to the nature of the people on this land, and it is an instinct engraved in the blood of genes.

If he wants to solve the problem that has plagued this nation for thousands of years, the first thing he must avoid is to temporarily prevent the phenomenon of the replacement of old and new.

After all, the generals under his command are all sitting in one side, powerful and powerful, and with the help of power, in this land, it is easy to sit on a lot of wealth and become a big landlord.

In this way, although he is still above his interest chain, to a certain extent, he has also set foot on other interest chains, such as... the landlord!

It is an inevitable phenomenon that vested interests in any interest chain will spontaneously maintain the continuation of the interest chain and form a vested interest group with common interests.

Other interest groups cannot be changed for the time being, so what he has to do is naturally to prevent the interest groups led by him from changing their colors.

Li Ruolian is a smart person, so the rumors that should not be revealed will naturally not be revealed, and the rumors that should be revealed will naturally be released.

Those who can follow him to the present are unlikely to be idiots, and those who should restrain themselves will naturally restrain themselves.

After all, their main interest direction, at present, is not on the land.

However, cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents.

If the interest group led by him is not allowed to focus on the land, then he must also find new sources of income for them.

In this world, there has never been unreasonable loyalty, even if there is, it cannot withstand consumption.

However, Li Xiu is still thinking about how to find this other way and how to guide them to it.

Now, the time has not yet come...

While thinking about it, Li Xiuzhi's eyes were also on the few pieces of information on the table.

The illusory fantasy, after all, is somewhat no match for the cruel reality.

What can he do?

Can he win back Tianjia's heart?

Can he stop the emperor from growing up?

Can he prevent the literati and gentry who were slaughtered and oppressed by him from falling to heaven?
