Chapter 1621 Best Friend

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Before Zhang Juzheng¡¯s death, the nationwide evacuation of emperors was indeed basically completed, but the result disappointed him greatly.

    The final number of acres in national statistics was 7,013,976 hectares.

    Compared with the Qing Dynasty in the 15th year of Hongzhi, it only increased by 810,000 hectares.

    ¡°Compared with the time in the 26th year of Hongwu, it was a full 1.49 million hectares less!

    "And during the Hongwu period, Yunnan and Guizhou provinces were not included in the Qing Dynasty.  In other words, after two more provinces were added to the Ming Dynasty, and after two hundred years of cultivation, the registered land was reduced by one-sixth, which is simply the most ridiculous thing in the world!

    In this way, Xianggong Zhang also gained the notoriety of being a "criminal" and "taking credit for excess", which became one of the crimes that was liquidated after his death.

    Because during the Jiajing period, there were only more than 4 million hectares of registered land, so the most conservative estimate is that more than half of the land was hidden from the government's sight, and there was no need to pay a pound of rice tax to the state.

    As for where the land went, I have said it many times before. It was simply annexed by clans, officials and big landowners.  Even if the land is registered, they still enjoy a large number of legal and illegal tax exemptions. The burden of the country is entirely on the small farmers, and the small farmers have no choice but to flee, and the country is impoverished and the people are in distress.

    Zhang Juzheng¡¯s original plan was to attack their privileges and let these officials and big landowners shoulder their due responsibilities.

    However, even Xianggong Zhang could not touch the largest landowner, the vassal prince's family.  We know that if the reform is not thorough, it is better not to reform at all.

    Faced with the government¡¯s abrogation, those big bureaucratic landowners dedicated their land to the clan¡¯s name.  The clan was so arrogant and unreasonable because of its stinky pig blood. Officials dared to come to clean up the father-in-law, so they directly led their slaves to drive him away.  Anyway, you don¡¯t have to pay with your life if you kill someone

    How can the government clear the clan¡¯s fields?  Instead, these pigs took the opportunity to annex the land, resulting in the land becoming more concentrated.

    Therefore, in Zhao Hao¡¯s opinion, unless Zhu Yuanzhang¡¯s extremely stupid vassal system is uprooted and all the pigs are slaughtered, dried and hung on the city wall, clearing the land will never succeed!

    Sorry, saying that the clan is a pig is really insulting to a pig.  After all, pigs are full of treasures.  They are just a group of useless parasites and vampires that exude stench!

    It was because there were no vassals in Jiangnan that Hai Rui succeeded in clearing the throne.  Whenever there is a vassal king here and he fights with him, he will definitely be the one who is finished.  Because he is just a minister of the Lao Zhu family, and they are the Lao Zhu family

    With Mr. Zhang¡¯s wisdom, how could he not see such an obvious problem?

    Of course he can see it.  The first and last memorial written by Zhang Juzheng during the Jiajing period, "On Current Affairs", clearly pointed out the five major crises of the country.

    The first crisis is that the clan kings are arrogant and arrogant, and have no regard for the king's laws, leading to the corruption of the judicial system!  The most powerful annexation, but not only does it not pay taxes, it also requires more than half of the tax revenue of a province to support it!

    But Zhang Juzheng knew it was useless, because his power came from the emperor, so as long as the emperor was unwilling to touch his family, he could only stare.

    It is precisely because Zhao Hao has seen through this that he has no hope for any reform based on imperial power.

    This is why he and Hai Rui are comrades, but not Zhang Juzheng

    Therefore, a son-in-law who is too attentive to his father-in-law is often unkind

    ??~~

    The words are divided into two parts.

    Here Zhao Hao is persuading Mr. Zhang, and over there Eunuch Feng has also returned to the palace.

    When returning to the palace, Feng Bao specially asked the sedan chair to go around the Meridian Gate to see what was going on there.  You never know the full extent of things until you see them.  Good guy, more and more officials are petitioning. Is there maybe three or four hundred of them?

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????

    We are here for Yuan Fu¡¯s good, anyone who objects is just trying to force Yuan Fu to death!

    ¡®Oh, uncle, it¡¯s really not the right time for you to be sick.  ¡¯ Feng Bao lowered the sedan curtain depressedly and stepped off the sedan board. The young eunuch lifted up the sedan and entered the palace through the left door.

    When Feng Bao came to Qianqing Palace to see the Queen Mother, she couldn¡¯t stop crying as soon as Feng Bao told her about Mr. Zhang¡¯s situation.

    How could a perfect man like Zhang Lang suffer from such a problem?  I don¡¯t know if it¡¯s contagious or not¡­

    "Can't you recuperate in Beijing?" However, Queen Mother Li could still grasp the key point and said: "It's thousands of miles on the road, how bumpy it is?"

    "Isn't it also related to burial?" Feng Bao said cautiously: "Xiangong Zhang and his father had been in conflict for twenty years, and as a result, they were separated from each other without seeing each other again. You can imagine the grief and regret in my heart. But all the officials have returned.  I don¡¯t understand him, I think he just loves power.I dreamed about it again and again at midnight. I don¡¯t know how many times I worshiped Xianggong Zhang and unlocked hundreds of postures.

    Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, her young son became the emperor, she became the queen mother who listened to the government behind the curtain, and Zhang Xianggong became the emperor's advisor to assist the government.  The two of them suddenly spent more time in contact.

    ¡°And Zhang Juzheng treated the emperor as if he were his own son and worked hard, which completely fit the image of a perfect husband in her mind.  She even managed the state affairs in an orderly manner, filling the national treasury and allowing her and her mother to live a peaceful life.  There is no sense of desolation like an orphan and a widowed mother being bullied.

    This is all because of him!

    He even patiently lectured her on Buddhist scriptures and practiced meditation with her to worship Buddha, which greatly satisfied Empress Dowager Li¡¯s spirit.  She even felt that these were her best days.

    People who live in happiness and sweetness every day can¡¯t help but want to share it with others.  If no one shares it, it is like walking in brocade clothes at night, which can suffocate people to death.

    But she is not ignorant of the importance. She knows that she must not talk about such things to others, otherwise the reputation of the royal family will be ruined, and she will not be able to see her son.

    So she set her sights on Ning'an, who was in a very similar situation.  Once he stayed in the palace and slept with her on the same bed, he told her all about his love

    Ning'an was really depressed, so she also shared her story

    Having common hobbies can bring people closer together, and now the eldest princess is Queen Mother Li¡¯s best friend.

    However, Ning An still has a sense of superiority in her heart. She feels that in fact, she can only enjoy sex, unlike herself who can practice it.

    ¡°Well, so I¡¯m not as happy as myself.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
