    In the reviewing office of the imperial palace, there are three senior ministers of the imperial court, six ministers and ministers, plus four noble representatives including the British Duke Zhang Mao, the Chengguo Duke Zhu Fu, Jianchang Bo and Shouning Hou, as well as more than a dozen Hanlin Academy officials, Zhan  More than a dozen officers from the Ministry of Justice and a dozen censors from the Supervisory Office formed a huge high-quality marking team.

    Even Emperor Hongzhi brought his crown prince Zhu Houzhao over to participate in the marking process. This marking team was quite high, which showed that Emperor Hongzhi and the court attached great importance to the Luncai Ceremony.

    "Here's Liu Jin's test paper. Bring it over to me for a look. I don't know what crazy ideas this kid can come up with."

    Emperor Hongzhi just sat down and ordered Liu Jin¡¯s test paper.

    He had long wanted to give Liu Jin some reward or something. Liu Jin had done a lot for him and the prince, and also done a lot for the Ming Dynasty. It stands to reason that Liu Jin's contribution would be enough to make him a knight, but Liu Jin was not a member of the imperial court.  , In addition, the Ming Dynasty had very strict control over titles, and it was difficult to be awarded a title for non-military merit. After all, Comrade Zhu was really mean and unthinking. He was very kind to his descendants, but he was stingy towards civil servants and generals.  So much so that it became a tradition.

    So what Emperor Hongzhi was thinking about was to give Liu Jin some rewards in the imperial examination. If he didn't do well in the imperial examination, he would rank high. He never thought that Liu Jin had always done well in the imperial examination. Now it's the final stage of the imperial examination.  It was finally time for him, Emperor Hongzhi, to show off.

    Soon, someone found Liu Jin¡¯s exam paper.

    "Change your native land and return to your current position?"

    Emperor Hongzhi took Liu Jin¡¯s answer sheet and read it carefully. When he saw the first four words, he was immediately filled with doubts.

    Then look at it carefully.

    The chieftain system in the southwestern region was formed in the continuation of the restraint system during the Tang Dynasty. It was essentially a method used by the central government to win over the native leaders because it was unable to care about the southwest border areas. In essence, it was 'ruling the native people with native officials'.  Min', recognizing the hereditary system of native leaders and giving them official positions and titles for indirect notification.

    Under this chieftain system, the land and the people are hereditary owned by the chieftain. Each chieftain forms a sphere of influence. Judicial power, financial, military, administrative power, etc. can all be autonomous. They have all the power of life and death over the local natives, except that they cannot  Except for ascending the throne and becoming an emperor, everything else is no different from an emperor, and you only need to pay a small symbolic amount of taxes to the court. In order to show the emperor's great kindness, the court often exempts them from taxes, and also gives various rewards from time to time.

    This system once played a certain positive role when productivity was low, transportation was inconvenient, and national cultural differences were huge. However, in the era of chieftains, they were officials, hereditary, and dominated one side. Over a long period of time, the chieftain system gradually became increasingly corrupt.  Decayed and backward, these chieftains have also developed into arrogant, domineering and defiant people, just like wolves that have not been raised well.

    When the court has gifts, it is easy to say, but once the gifts are less, it will immediately show its teeth and bite people, and even take the initiative to stir up troubles by relying on the soldiers and men in its hands, in order to blackmail the court to obtain rewards.

    In fact, this problem, in the words of later generations, is something you get used to, just like Uncle Yang, Gang Can and the like in later generations. The better you treat him and the better treatment you give him, the more he will take it for granted.  Yes, it doesn¡¯t work the other way around.

    They don¡¯t think about whether they have made any contribution to this land or whether they have contributed to this country. They are just shameless, arrogant, and domineering. In the final analysis, they are used to it.

    "As long as we treat everyone equally and don't make any distinction, if we just treat them as they should be, nothing will happen to them, and there won't be so many bad things happening at all.

    The same is true for this chieftain. It has been the habit of the past dynasties, and something has gone wrong. These chieftains are accustomed to thinking that the court is easy to bully, and they will make troubles if they are not given favors. As long as they make troubles, they will be rewarded. This is what the emperors of the Ming Dynasty have become.  It's all a huge headache.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? But this is just drinking poison to quench their thirst. The appetite of these toasts is getting bigger and bigger, and the burden on the court will become heavier and heavier.

    But if they are not appeased, the southwest region is rugged, steep, and steep. Even if you have a million troops, there is nothing you can do against them.

    This has led to the current embarrassing situation.

    Liu Jin first analyzed the history, development and current situation of the chieftain system in detail, and pointed out the fundamentals of the chieftain system.

    Emperor Hongzhi nodded after reading it. Liu Jin was really different from ordinary officials in the court. Few officials in the court could understand the history, development and essence of the chieftain system.

    "As expected of a disciple of a master, indeed??Extraordinary knowledge and insight into the fundamentals.  "

    Emperor Hongzhi gave his own evaluation, and then looked at the specific methods and suggestions given by Liu Jin.

    Liu Jin¡¯s policy of reforming native land and returning it to exile is actually a copy of the policy of reforming native land and returning it to exile during the Qing Dynasty, abolishing the chieftain system, establishing prefectures, departments, prefectures, and counties, and dispatching exiled officials for a certain term for management.

    "The method of transforming the soil is to plan and capture as the top priority, and to suppress the troops as the bottom. To make them surrender is the best strategy, and to order them to surrender is the bottom strategy. The method of growing seedlings must be to use both grace and power"

    "Okay, that's good!"

    After reading it carefully from beginning to end, Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but admire the case. Liu Jin's plan to change the native land to return to local rule can fundamentally solve the problem of chieftains in the southwest.

    Hearing what Emperor Hongzhi said, everyone who was reviewing the papers couldn't help but look over one by one.

    "Look at it, Liu Jin is worthy of being a son of a master. From this method of reforming the soil and returning to the countryside, the southwest can be settled, and there will be no worries."

    Emperor Hongzhi smiled and motioned for everyone to look at Liu Jin¡¯s answer sheet.

    When everyone heard this, they all became more curious. Liu Jian was the first to take the paper and read it carefully.

    "It's so high, it's really high. It's true that you are a son of a great man. Once this strategy comes out, Southwest will no longer have any worries."

    Soon, Liu Jian finished reading and couldn't help pinching his goatee and praising it.

    "Diagnosing the essence, getting to the point, and eradicating the source of the disaster, this is a quick strategy~"

    Li Dongyang nodded vigorously after reading it.

    "Change the soil and return it to the flow, change the soil and return it to the flow, if this strategy is successfully implemented, there will be no worries in the Southwest."

    After reading it, Xie Qian couldn't help but praise it.

    Even the three pavilion elders praised it greatly, and others immediately became more curious. Emperor Hongzhi simply asked Xiao Jing to read it to everyone, and everyone immediately burst into praise after hearing it.

    Historically, it only took Yongzheng a few years during the Qing Dynasty to completely solve the problem of chieftains in the southwestern region by reforming the land and returning it to local rule. Since then, nothing has happened in the southwestern region.

    And because of the reassignment of floating officials, the central government's rule over the border areas has been strengthened, which is conducive to promoting the social and economic development of these areas, and at the same time, it can also promote the integration of ethnic groups and the unification of the country.

    "Everyone, please continue reading the papers. If you have any good answers, bring them over to me for a look."

    Emperor Hongzhi was in a good mood after receiving Liu Jin's strategy of reforming his native land and returning to his hometown. From then on, he could sleep peacefully, but soon, he also began to think about how to better implement this reform.  Return policy.

    "They will definitely not agree to depriving the chieftains of their privileges and status. As soon as this policy comes out, the southwest will be in chaos, so troops and horses from all provinces should be mobilized in advance, just in case."

    Emperor Hongzhi was thinking about the matter of reforming his native land and returning to his hometown. The ministers here also continued to review the papers. One after another, some of the answers were meaningful, and some talked about giving both kindness and power, suppressing and pacifying, etc., but there were also some completely  He is a bookworm. Apart from knowing the Four Books and Five Classics and a lot of eight-part essays, he can't speak anything at all.

    So some of the ministers who reviewed the papers kept shaking their heads, some nodded slightly, and some put down the answer sheets angrily.

    There are more than a hundred answer sheets, and there are dozens of ministers who grade them, so on average, it is enough for one person to read a few answers. Of course, the specific ranking must be carefully read again, but select some from them.  Excellent articles are not difficult.

    "This man has the talent to understand the world and the earth. This method cooperates with Liu Jin's method of reforming the native land and returning to the local people. Southwest will be safe."

    Soon, when Liu Jian saw Wang Shouren¡¯s answer sheet, he couldn¡¯t help but shout out. When everyone heard this, they immediately became interested again. Xiao Jing also hurriedly showed the answer sheet to Emperor Hongzhi.

    Wang Shouren¡¯s strategy was actually very simple. He used military and educational aspects to pacify the southwest. In terms of military, Wang Shouren suggested recruiting mountain people from Hunan, Guangxi, Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou and other regions and training them into an army.

    Because the mountain people have lived in the deep mountains and old forests for many years, they are naturally familiar with and can adapt well to the environment of high mountains and steep rivers. Using them to form an army, supplemented by mountain combat training methods, does not require many troops, only  Training 20,000 of these elite mountain soldiers is enough to easily wipe out the rebellious chieftains in the southwest. There is no need for the court to spend a lot of time and mobilize too many troops.

    This method is also a method that Wang Shouren came up with after carefully studying the situation in the southwest. The transportation in the southwest is inconvenient and is not suitable for large-scale use of troops. Therefore, the use of troops must be precise, and they must be in the mountains and forests, and be targeted, so that they can easily  The rebel southwestern chieftains were wiped out.

    Extermination alone is definitely not enough, so Wang Shouren also proposed a method to strengthen education for the descendants of the southwest chieftains and other children. The main method is to gather the children of the southwest chieftains and some children of the Tu ethnic group, teach them the Four Books and Five Classics, teach them the Three Cardinal Guidelines and the Five Constant Rules, so that  They also came to take the imperial examinations and so on.

    "This method is very quick, and it is indeed a talent that knows the world. If it is used in conjunction with Liu Jin's reform of the soil and return to the flow, there will be no worries in the southwest."

    Just now, Emperor Hongzhi, who was still worried about how to wipe out the rebellious chieftains in the southwest, thought that once the land reform was implemented, these chieftains would rebel, he immediately cried out with joy.
