    Seeing Yang Ling's stunned look, Liu Jin felt even more proud.  In all honesty, a traitorous minister is just someone else's evaluation of what he has done, but a traitorous minister himself doesn't think so, why doesn't Liu Jin want to make a career out of it?  only

    Yang Ling took Liu Jin's thick memorial and opened it for a look. Not to mention, Liu Jin's memorial definitely didn't have the problem of being stinky, long and obtrusive.  , The violation of law and discipline is very serious, and in response to the current disadvantages, reforms are proposed.

    For example, the phenomenon of appointing private persons and nepotism promotion is very serious. The old system of officials not serving in the original province has long been followed. After Zhengde came to the throne, he reiterated this matter according to Liu Jin and Yang Ling's suggestion, and sent it to the Ministry of Officials for implementation. Liu Jin was very proud of this measure.  This time, the old tune is new, and it is suggested to list it as a court law as a system for evaluating officials.

    For another example, the imperial court¡¯s inspection of local money and food has not been very detailed, so that a strange phenomenon has appeared: the Ming Dynasty¡¯s taxes are extremely light, and the treasury¡¯s income is very small, but the people at the bottom are miserable.  Layer-by-layer exploitation was increased because Jin decided to change the regular system of temporary spot checks of money and food stocks in various places by officials of the household department, and the checks reached as many as twelve times a year.

    In addition, re-measurement of farmland, crackdown on smuggling merchants, rectification of salt laws, torture and corruption, reduction of farmers' taxes and labor, civil servants and military management, etc., not only raise problems, but also have corresponding solutions for each.

    Yang Ling looked at it carefully, but he was very surprised. Many of these views were aimed at derogating from the actual situation, and hit the nail on the head. Perhaps it was because Liu Jin himself was born in poverty, and his brain trust was a small low-ranking scholar.  Problems that are covered up cannot be hidden from their eyes.

    Liu Jin took a sip of tea with a smile, waited patiently for Yang Ling to finish reading, and then asked, "Master Yang, do you think these policies of our family are feasible?"

    Although he asked Yang Ling, he was already full of ambition and waiting for Yang Ling to praise him. Many of his strategies were correct, but if he really wanted to implement them, the officials themselves would be a big problem.

    For example, Yang Ling wanted to laugh when he saw the severe punishment, cruel legal system, and corruption. After Liu Jin became the inner court, he received a lot of gifts, and just like the outer court suspected the inner court, Liu Jin could not trust the outer court.  It is clearly stated in the stripes that Dongchang will implement it. How can a bunch of extortionate ruffians enforce the law and eliminate corruption?

    Yang Ling agrees with re-measurement of the number of acres and paying taxes according to the number of fields. He encountered such a strange thing when he was in Jimingyi. The landlords at the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty have now been reduced to poor farmers, but the official record of the number of acres is still 100.  Many years ago, paying taxes based on this almost didn't force the family to hang themselves.

    As for civil servants to lead the army, Yang Ling is firmly opposed to it, but Liu Jin did it out of the desire to safeguard the monarchy. Yang Ling is no longer the boy he was when he first entered Beijing, and he will not naively fight with others in official articles.  After Liu Jin asked, Yang Ling pondered for a moment, and sighed: "Eunuch's theory is really reasonable, but it is very difficult to implement it."

    Seeing that he agreed, Liu Jin was very happy. As for the difficulty Liu Jin was very optimistic.  He smiled and said: "My lord, do you think it is feasible for me to present to the emperor in this way?"

    Yang Ling hurriedly said: "Uh there are some small problems. For example, the public thinks that the Ministry of Households should check the money and food in various places once a month. This is too frequent. It's exhausting.  This group of officials left Beijing, and before they come back, the second group has to go down, and besides, most of the food and taxes are harvested according to the year, and there are frequent inspections, where do the local officials still have time to deal with government affairs?"

    Liu Jin nodded and said: "Yes, yes, our family forgot that the official warehouses in various places are not in Beijing. This needs to be changed, and changed to twice a year."

    He took the memorial, marked it, and then asked: "What else is wrong? Please advise Master Yang."

    Yang Ling pointed to the article about civilian officials leading the army and said: "At the Jiming Post, the imperial envoy was a literati and didn't understand military affairs, but he interfered with the marching and formation everywhere, causing the army to be trapped in the Gourd Valley and finally died.  Among the rebellious army, the father-in-law also suffered a lot from it.

    ?Look at this, here it is said that there will be a civil servant general control over the nine borders, and all the towns and patrols will be restrained. If the Tartars attack the border again, and let a civil servant talk nonsense on the top, wouldn't it be a big deal?  "

    Liu Jin blushed when she heard this. At the beginning, he was one of the people who talked nonsense, but in the end he only let General He take the blame. He also knew in his heart that there are many disadvantages of layman's blind command. This one was originally to show loyalty. That scholar  The public decided to add it for him.

    Liu Jin picked up the pen, painted over this line heavily, and asked: "Your Excellency is right, is there any more?"

    Yang Ling pointed to the??, shaking behind her, Princess Yongfu bit her lip, stood on tiptoe, moved lightly, and suddenly reached out and quickly snatched the silk handkerchief back into her hand.

    Yang Ling is going to try planting in different climates in the north and the south, and concentrate on barren land and hillsides in Shaanxi for trial planting. He told Zhengde about the financial guarantee provided by the internal factory.  Yang Ling couldn't help but secretly heaved a sigh of relief when the silk scarf was ripped away.

    Immediately, he felt someone kick his heel, Yang Ling was stunned, and the fragrant wind flashed beside him, the little princess Yongfu had walked to Zhengde's side, turned around and stood still, with an expression on her face that looked like a smile but not a smile  , the white teeth lightly revealed a gap of white from between the cherry lips, her eyes were soft and charming, but she didn't look at him.

    A strange feeling flashed in Yang Ling's heart, still thinking that this little princess is gentle and delicate, it turns out that all young girls in the world have a normal temper, even if she is the emperor's daughter.

    Zhengde was confused by breeding, planting seedlings, soil moisture, diseases and insect pests halfway through Yang Ling's talk. Although he followed the emperor and cultivated in the Temple of Heaven, he couldn't even tell the difference between crops and weeds.  He is interested in these things, but he has a lot of trust in Yang Ling and Liu Jin. Since these two people have agreed, there is nothing else to say.

    Zhengde waved his hand and said: "Okay, it's up to you, Liu Jin drafted a decree and asked the Shaanxi chief envoy to do it, and then it will be arguing when it is submitted to the court."

    ? Yang Ling was overjoyed, the Ministry of Household Affairs was replaced by Zhang Cai, and the official of the Ministry of Household Affairs was Yan Song. Once the imperial decree was issued, it would be conveyed to Shaanxi immediately. By that time, it was a done deal, and even forty horses would not be able to chase him back.

    Seeing this, Liu Jin took the opportunity to say: "Your Majesty, I have just asked Mr. Yang to read some proposals on the government's maladministration. I want to make some revisions and implement them. Your Majesty is in charge of the country. There should be something new about it."  Well".

    Zhengde was overjoyed, and clapped the table and said: "Okay, okay, that's it. If you share my worries, how can I do everything myself?"

    Yang Ling was shocked when he heard it. Liu Jin's reform policy was even more radical than his own. As soon as these forty reforms were proposed, it's no wonder that the court didn't blow up the pot. It's only been a few days of peace.

    Yang Ling hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I have to prepare grain and train personnel. I'm afraid I won't be able to come to court for a while."

    Zhengde was a little disappointed, and there seemed to be a hint of disappointment in the eyes of Princess Yongfu next to him. Zhengde was about to speak, and Yang Ling said again: "Your Majesty, the inner factory is developing a new kind of firecracker. If it is successfully developed, its range and speed of fire will be higher than before.  The firearms are much sharper, I must make them as soon as possible, and I will ask the emperor to try the guns with his own hands."

    This sentence aroused Zhengde's interest again, and he hurriedly said: "Okay, then go about on your own, and tell me if you need to transfer people from the Military Weapons Bureau."

    Yang Ling answered yes, smiled and looked at Liu Jin who was eager to try, and said in his heart: "Mr. Liu, you can go on and on. It's not the time for me to be in the early days. It's best to avoid evil."
