On the fifth day of the twelfth lunar month in the fifteenth year of Hongzhi's reign, the weather in the capital was very good. The wind was gentle and the sun was clear, and the sky was cloudless. The cold wind that had been howling in the past few days disappeared completely, and the winter sunshine shone brightly. It was warm on people's bodies, and in the streets and alleys of the capital, old and young men came out to bask in the sun and chat, and their days were very leisurely.
However, for the officials from various places who came to the capital to report their duties, they were not in any mood to enjoy the beautiful weather, because today was the day when they reported their duties to the Emperor of Heaven.
On the Taihe Square outside the Jinluan Hall, after the morning dynasty, the ministers who were facing the court did not disperse, but gathered here in Taihe Square.
On Taihe Square, rows of chairs are arranged neatly. All officials have sat down according to their rank and order. Emperor Hongzhi's dragon chair is also placed above the dragon steps, and on both sides below the dragon steps, The three ministers in the cabinet, the six ministers, the British Duke Zhang Mao and others also sat straightly in the civil and military ranks.
Under them, both sides were filled with civil and military officials, all wearing crimson robes. Looking from a distance, everything was red.
¡°The weather is quite nice!¡±
Emperor Hongzhi is still in a pretty good mood. Of course, the main reason is that his body is getting better and better, and his spirit is getting better and better. Since the intestinal carbuncle was removed, Emperor Hongzhi's health has gotten better and better. He has become younger and his weight has improved. It also increased, and the hair on my head slowly turned black.
In the past, during this winter, even if there was no wind, he would not have dared to sit outside like this, because his body was too weak and he would easily get sick if there was any wind or cold.
But things are different now. My body is getting better and better, and my resistance is getting stronger and stronger. I am no longer afraid of the cold.
"Your Majesty, the time has come~"
Xiao Jing looked at the time, checked with Xiao Huangmen beside him, and then came to Emperor Hongzhi¡¯s side to remind him.
¡°Then let¡¯s get started!¡±
Emperor Hongzhi nodded slightly, he was actually looking forward to it.
The examination system created by Liu Jin is not that unusual. It has existed in all dynasties. It is just that Liu Jin's examination system is more detailed and meticulous. However, the work reporting system created by Liu Jin is the first of its kind. It was a pioneering work for the feudal officials from all over the country to come to Beijing to report on their duties. Emperor Hongzhi really wanted to see what tricks Liu Jin could play in this regard.
"The chief envoy of Northern Zhili came forward to report his duties!"
Xiao Jing took two steps forward and shouted at the top of his lungs.
As Xiao Jing finished speaking, among the many officials below, someone stood up and came under the dragon steps and said respectfully to Emperor Hongzhi: "Your Majesty, Zhang Mingzheng is attending!"
"Um!"
Emperor Hongzhi nodded slightly.
Beizhili is the place under the emperor's feet, so Zhang Mingzheng is naturally very clear about every move in the capital. He is also very confident when it comes to reporting on his duties. He took out a note from his sleeve and began to read loudly. road.
"Thanks to His Majesty's grace and trust, and the support of all the princes in the DPRK, I am honored to be in charge of the government."
"Just the beginning made Emperor Hongzhi and the princes next to him nod slightly, and at the same time, it also made the following officials who came to the capital to report on their duties couldn't help but widen their eyes.
"Can you prepare lyrics in advance?"
When Chen Xin, the chief envoy of Liaodong, saw this scene, he couldn't help being slightly dumbfounded.
He was naturally prepared in advance, but he recited all the contents, and did not expect to write them down in the form of a memorial.
"Why didn't I think of it? At this time, I must still write a memorial to His Majesty to explain it in detail."
Under the dragon steps, Zhang Mingzheng¡¯s voice was loud and he slowly began to tell Emperor Hongzhi and the ministers present about his gains and losses in governing Beizhili.
¡°In the fifteenth year of Hongzhi, Beizhili completed a tax revenue of 35.8 million taels, an increase of about 10 million taels compared to the 25 million taels in the fourteenth year of Hongzhi!¡±
"In the fifteenth year of Hongzhi, in addition to the three main cement roads built by the imperial court, namely Beijing-Shanxi, Beijing-Shandong, and Beijing-Henan, Beizhili also completed the construction of cement roads between state capitals. All state capitals already have cement roads. Cement roads The total length exceeds three thousand miles!¡±
"Compared to the 14th year of Hongzhi, the length of new cement roads is 1,500 miles, 25 new reservoirs, 7 new ports, 352 new bridges, and the length of new rivers"
¡°In the fifteenth year of Hongzhi, Beizhili built 257 new schools, 53 traditional private schools, and 12 colleges.Said seriously.
"I obey the decree!"
When Zhang Mingzheng heard this, he immediately replied very seriously again.
"Your Majesty, gentlemen~"
¡°I believe that the current security problem is not only in the Beijing-Tianjin area, but also in Nanjing, Songhu, and major coastal ports, big cities, etc., the security situation is very chaotic. Gangs are rampant, bully the market, rely on violence to monopolize business, and even kidnap and traffic. Children, women, etc. are very common, which greatly affects the safety and life of the people, and also affects the prosperity of our Ming Dynasty."
"I believe that a severe crackdown on the evil forces should be carried out throughout the Ming Dynasty to clear up the evil forces, maintain social order, and protect the safety of people's lives and property."
Liu Jin thought for a while and stood up to ask Emperor Hongzhi for instructions.
This is not an alarmist statement by Liu Jin, but information collected from various aspects. At this time, the Beijing-Tianjin area is really in chaos, and public security is very poor. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
