Longevity begins with Jinyiwei

After all, after going through life and death for him, conquering the north and the south, if they blocked even the way of making money, it wouldn't be chilling.

What's more, he still needs Wu Xun's support to fulfill these ambitions.

Ever since he ordered Jin Yiwei to count the land in the whole country, he has been expressing all kinds of hints to the warriors not to put too much thought on the land.

But if you want to maintain the stability of people's hearts, if you block a source of income for others, you will naturally create another source of income for them.

In this way, the stability of the army's morale can be guaranteed, and the Wu Xun Group can be used by him better and support him unswervingly.

Whether it is in the martial arts academy, a special class is set up to talk about overseas wealth, or it is now nakedly expressing covetousness for overseas wealth, the ultimate intention is to use the deeds of the Western Yi kingdoms to tell all the warriors and even the generals that they The head of the Wu Xun Group will not treat them badly, and will make up for them overseas for what they are not allowed to do.

And this is how he, the emperor, fulfilled the promise he once said that he would not treat any meritorious officials badly...

In today's financial difficulties and the world's internal and external troubles, he still wastes no effort to strengthen the navy, and it is naturally for this reason.

In Liaodong, a naval force is enough, so there is no need to waste so much effort.

A generous reward with a title and salary is temporarily appeasement, and then overseas wealth is a promise.

Let the military's morale be stable and the military's morale can be used.

Daheng needs it, and he, the emperor, needs it too.

Chapter 384 Annexation of the Former Ming Clan and the Land

The morning sun was just rising, and the golden radiance slowly fell on the earth. Outside the Desheng Gate of the capital, a huge team came slowly.

The brigade of iron cavalry escorted them, and as the battle flags were unfurled, horse-drawn carriages stretched out, and it was clearly visible that the brigade of brocade-clothed guards was riding in the ranks to protect them.

Just from the exquisiteness and luxury of the carriages in the convoy, it seems that the noble status of the people in the carriages can be clearly seen.

The people watching along the way also speculated endlessly, and those who knew the inside story mostly kept silent and did not dare to say more.

"How is it? Are you honest?"

Li Ruolian rode forward and asked in the first sentence.

"Don't worry, my lord, they are all very honest!"

"That's good."

Li Ruolian nodded, feeling relieved that the matter of Dongchang was not over yet, and there was another trouble in Shouwang's mansion. If there was another problem with this matter, then his future would be in jeopardy.

"My lord, so many clans have come to the capital, what are they going to do?"

Jin Yiwei couldn't help asking.

"Don't ask if you shouldn't ask, be careful to lose your head!"

Li Ruolian said in a deep voice, and then, watching the convoy stretching for more than ten miles, he also shook his head.

There are 33 vassal kings and tens of thousands of clans. Even if the dynasty changes, it will still be a big problem.

"First set up camp outside the city and wait for the will of the Holy One."

After thinking for a moment, Li Ruolian made arrangements.

Just as Li Ruolian thought, this great Ming clan is really a big problem.

At this moment, in Wenyuan Pavilion, the chief minister of the cabinet Lai Zongdao, the second minister Liu Qiyuan, and Qian Qianyi were all arguing about this problem.

The specific reason for the debate is naturally how to arrange the clans of these Daming vassal kings.

"There were 33 princes of the former Ming Dynasty, 15 county kings, nearly [-] town generals, and the remaining [-] clan members recorded in the book!"

"With such a huge base, the power of the world in the previous Ming Dynasty could not afford to support such a huge clan. We can only let most of them plunder everywhere, causing chaos in the world. The people and officials dare not speak out!"

"Such a huge burden is just a great opportunity to cut it down, how can I bind my feet again!"

"Moreover, since ancient times, there is no reason for the new dynasty to support the old dynasty's clan!"

Liu Qiyuan scolded Qian Qianyi and other cabinet ministers unceremoniously:

"What is your intention?"

Qian Qianyi was not afraid of tit-for-tat: "Master Liu's words are wrong, and he does not support all the clans, but only some of them. In this way, it can not only reassure the people of the world, but also show your Majesty's heart of honor and tolerance for the clans of the previous dynasty. heart of!"

"Besides, Mr. Liu, you have already said that there are hundreds of thousands of registered clans, and millions of people are involved. It would be a great disaster to cut them off with one knife!"

"I would like to ask, Master Liu, what is your intention!"

"What am I thinking about?"

Liu Qiyuan almost laughed out of anger:

"Then I would like to ask you, Mr. Qian, how many former royal families do you think it is good to support? Where does the money for Rong's support come from?"

"Don't worry about scarcity but unevenness. After supporting some, how can the rest of the former clan's heart be stabilized?"

Speaking of this, Liu Qiyuan made no secret of his disdain for Qian Qianyi:

"Using the power of the imperial court to build a reputation for your well-being, Mr. Qian, you really have a good idea!"

"you……"

"The Emperor is here!"

Qian Qianyi's face was flushed, and he was about to scold him, but the sudden voice made him hold back the words that came to his lips.

"See Your Majesty!"

Several cabinet ministers immediately turned around, turned towards the door, and bowed deeply.

"Why, I heard voices of controversy all the way away. The cabinet has been deliberating for so long, and they still haven't reached an opinion?"

Li Xiu looked around at the cabinet ministers, and finally fixed his eyes on Lai Zongdao, the chief assistant of the cabinet.

"I would like to report to Your Majesty that there is still some controversy. Elder Qian Ge advocates honoring and supporting some former Ming clans to show His Majesty's tolerance and to stabilize the hearts of the people of the world."

"The second assistant, Liu Ge, advocated taking advantage of this opportunity to cut off this burden..."

"Hmm..." Li Xiu nodded, looked around Liu Qiyuan and Qian Qianyi who were facing each other, and then looked at Lai Zongdao, and changed the topic: "What does the chief assistant think?"

As soon as this remark came out, Lai Zongdao couldn't help sighing in his heart, if it was true, he still couldn't hide it.

With thoughts flowing, Lai Zongdao made a deep obeisance to the Son of Heaven and said:

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Daheng has just been established, and a thousand wastes are waiting for prosperity. The current financial situation is still very short, and it is really unable to support the former clan..."

"Besides, since ancient times, there has been no reason for the new dynasty to honor and support the old dynasty's clan. I, Daheng, have honored and supported the longevity kings for generations, and the grace is already evident. If so, there is really no need to bear this huge burden."

Li Xiu glanced at Qian Qianyi indiscriminately, then nodded:

"Then let's do it according to Shoufu's intention. The former Ming clan will have their titles removed and be demoted to common people. The general of the town and even the former Ming clan will live together in Xidafang, the capital. This matter will be handed over to the cabinet... ..."

"Your Majesty, there are tens of thousands of people registered in the imperial clan of the former Ming Dynasty. A little carelessness..."

Qian Qianyi became anxious immediately, but Liu Qiyuan interrupted him just halfway through his speech: "If there is a slight carelessness, the former Ming clan's morals were corrupted, they ignored the law, and harmed the world. All of them are heinous crimes. Now that Daheng has been established, Your Majesty is tolerant, and it is a blessing not to be held accountable for his crimes!"

"As ministers of Daheng, you are always thinking about the clan of the previous dynasty. Are you thinking about the past?"

As soon as the knife was released, Qian Qianyi and the others also turned pale, fell to their knees with a thud, and shouted hastily.

However, Li Xiu waved his hand indifferently: "Elder Qian Ge is also thinking about Daheng, but now that Daheng is just established, a lot of waste is waiting to be done, and he is unable to support the former clan, so we have to let them feel wronged."

As far as this is concerned, Li Xiu immediately looked at Liu Qiyuan: "The imperial clan of the former Ming Dynasty merged and invaded many people, and the Ministry of Household Affairs must do a good job of statistics, but it should not be too much..."

Hearing this, Liu Qiyuan's expression suddenly turned cloudy, and he couldn't hide his smile and bowed to the emperor: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the minister must have complete statistics, and I guarantee that I will not miss a single cent!"

In this way, the expressions of Qian Qianyi's cabinet ministers couldn't help but look a little ugly.It seems that even though they are cabinet ministers, they have never really entered the center of Daheng's rule from the beginning to the end.

Today, there is still a deep sense of guard against them.

Compared with the worries of Qian Qianyi and others, Li Xiu was obviously quite happy. He had been thinking about the cancer of the former Ming clan for a long time. When Daming was in power, he wanted to attack the Daming clan countless times, but Nai Identity, he obviously couldn't do it.

Now that the dynasties have changed, he naturally doesn't have too many scruples. As for those who are notorious, they are all usurpers of the country. How can he care about these things? As for the turmoil that Qian Qianyi said, he doesn't care much.

As the saying goes, there is no need to worry about debts. The world is in such a mess, so how can you care about more chaos in the clan? What's more, if you don't move, wouldn't the clan in the former Ming Dynasty be in chaos?

The former Ming clan was all surnamed Zhu, and the whole world was originally owned by the Zhu family. He usurped it, and the Zhu family can be assigned to work for him in peace. This is nonsense!

If you can cut down this cancer in one step, it will undoubtedly be a big step forward for the peace of the world's internal troubles.

Moreover, the huge wealth of the imperial clan of the former Ming Dynasty and the innumerable lands they occupied can become a source of taxation, and the reformed Weisuo Juntun can become a great source of income to make up for the vacancy of Daheng's finances!

So, how could he be unhappy!

"The team escorting the former Ming clan has arrived outside the capital, so please take care of this matter."

After giving an order, Li Xiu waved his hand to Liu Qiyuan again, and immediately walked out of Wenyuan Pavilion.

As for Liu Qiyuan, he followed closely behind the emperor.

"The land of the imperial clan of the former Ming Dynasty cannot be distributed to the common people after the statistics are complete."

The words suddenly uttered by the emperor were as shocking as a stone breaking the sky, so shocked that Liu Qiyuan suspected that he had heard it wrong!

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty...the imperial clan of the former Ming Dynasty occupies at least two or three tenths of the land in the world. With so many acres of land, it is a great opportunity to stabilize the hearts of the people in the world. Why..."

As for this, Liu Qiyuan dared not speak out.

"I know."

Li Xiu nodded, and then changed the topic: "Then I ask you, if the land is distributed to the common people, how many of them will actually be in the hands of the common people?"

"Even if it is in the hands of the common people, how many can be kept?"

Hearing this, Liu Qiyuan immediately didn't know how to answer. In fact, he couldn't even complete the statistics and checks. Even, in his heart, he was prepared to be corrupted.

Not to mention distributing so many acres of land to the people of the world is such a national event. Layers of distribution, layers of greed, and in the end, the local government is oppressed by power and wealth. Save one, even if you get there, if you can keep it, I'm afraid you won't save one!

"I will send Jin Yiwei, the General Staff Department, and the Inspectorate to assist the Household Department in handling this matter."

Seeing that Liu Qiyuan was silent, Li Xiu also shook his head, and immediately made arrangements.

"After the clearing of the fields and acres is complete, the land deeds and land deeds will be collected by the household department, and then the household department will recruit people to plant them, and the imperial court will collect taxes normally!"

"Remember, these lands belong to Daheng, and no one has the right to sell, transfer, lease or use them for other purposes!"

"This point must be guaranteed. Around this point, the Ministry of Household Affairs will draw up another charter and implement it perfectly."

Hearing this, Liu Qiyuan didn't understand what the emperor meant.

The Son of Heaven seems to want to completely change the thousands-year-old tradition of land private ownership, and take the land into state ownership, so as to avoid the emergence of land annexation from the root cause.

The land is owned by the state, and the people only have the right to use it. No matter how rich and powerful the landlords and gentry are, they cannot force ordinary people to transfer the land to them. Even if the people want to sell the land, there is no possibility of buying or selling it.

In this way, if the land does not exist, at least 90.00% of the people are guaranteed to have land. As long as there is land, the people will not be oppressed by the landlord. Even if there is a natural disaster, the land is in their hands. go down.

If you can really achieve this step, this... is an unprecedented prosperity!

"However, if word of this matter spreads..."

After thinking about it, thinking about the horror involved in this incident, Liu Qiyuan couldn't help trembling, and looked at the emperor cautiously.

"It doesn't matter, with so many acres, it is not possible to count them all in one day."

Li Xiu waved his hand: "You just take the yellow books of the land deeds of those clan families, and slowly count and check."

Speaking of this, Li Xiu suddenly looked to the north, and sighed faintly: "When this battle is over, you can be at ease with yourself!"

Chapter 385 Northern Xinjiang Armament

Liu Qiyuan was shocked. At this moment, he subconsciously looked to the north.

Thinking of the recent mobilization of troops, food, grass and military equipment, as well as the anxious situation on the grassland, Liu Qiyuan's expression could not hide his fear.

This time, if there is a real fight, it will not be comparable to the mere Monan Mongolia Kowtow!

Lin Danhan, Daishan, and even Monan Mongolia, which is very likely to be forced to split.

That is to use the power of the peak of the grassland, plus a post-gold iron cavalry who has already reached the peak, and, besides, Yuan Chonghuan who has jumped out to stir up the situation!

This is just a frontal war. Once this war starts, the already hot internal situation will definitely be completely rotted!

Such a situation is far more turbulent than the internal and external troubles caused by the reform at the beginning!

After all, the people's hearts of the Huanghuang Daming for hundreds of years are not comparable to the Daheng who has just been established today!

It seemed that Liu Qiyuan was worried, but Li Xiu suddenly smiled: "Ai Qing should settle this matter with peace of mind!"

"After I beat them up, I can free up my hands to deal with these internal affairs. At that time, the responsibility of the household department will be very heavy!"
