Grain prices are still falling.

Finally, the court had room for breathing.

Therefore, Emperor Tianqi summoned all officials to reveal his ideas, and in the next one or two years, he would do his best to provide relief to the people.

Emperor Tianqi actually wanted to include refugees in military households and allow them to move to the capital, but this caused a lot of discussion among the ministers.

Many ministers expressed concerns.

This is equivalent to transferring the pressure from Guanzhong to the capital. No one knows how many refugees will be there at that time. Once there are too many refugees and they will pour into the capital, what should we do in this capital?

In addition, how can we solve the problem of so much food and salary?

Especially the ministers from Guanzhong who came from a certain period of time had a lot of complaints about this.

Because even if the price of grain falls, if there is no grain in Guanzhong, there is no grain, and the gentry there is waiting to take this opportunity to make a fortune.

Take out a small part of the grain and open a warehouse for relief. The court will generally give rewards, which is a public benefit.

The people cannot survive anymore and have to sell their land at a low price or borrow money, which is another layer of benefit.

In the year of disaster, manpower is not worth much, and there is room for improvement in renting, which is the third benefit.

But now, people are allowed to migrate. The victims know that there is food in the capital. This is great, and they are not crazy.

By then, all the young and strong people in Guanzhong will run away. If there are too many land and few people, the land price will plummet, which means the depreciation of assets.

In the coming year, there will be no manpower in spring farming and no tenants will be recruited. If the tenant rent is not discounted, how to maintain production is another disadvantage.

In short, this is harmful but not beneficial to the gentry in Guanzhong.

Therefore, the court was very controversial, and the opposing ministers believed that this would cause a large burden on the court and destroy the ancestral system of Emperor Taizu Gao.

Of course, there are also some supporters, such as Sun Chengzong and Sun Chengzong, who issued three memorials in succession, saying that this move is very appropriate and issued a warning that if the refugees have no hope, they will become bandits, and the bandits robbed Guanzhong, which will cause great harm.

This sentence is obviously aimed at the gentry in Guanzhong. You are only thinking about the immediate interests. Have you ever thought that if you really force the people into a hurry, they will first ask your head to land.

However, for the gentry, or for many ministers, they obviously do not view this way. Over the years, disasters have not been seen before. Haven’t they been through all safety? Why do you think that there will be disasters this year?

Huang Liji, the chief minister of the cabinet, was pretending to be dead.

That's right.

He pretended to be dead again.

With such a big controversy, he decided to look at the direction of the wind first.

Until the fourth court meeting, Emperor Tianqi saw that the ministers could not make sense, and such court meetings were not a solution. If they delayed it, even if everyone nodded in the end, the matter would be ruined.

Emperor Tianqi was already a young and gritted his teeth in anger. However, many ministers were rumored and used various reasons to explain the harm. Emperor Tianqi could not say that they were emotionally upset and cried anxiously: "What are all the ministers? Emperor Taizu Gao has been more than two hundred years so far. Although the ancestors' laws must be kept, they must not be completely unresolved. If anyone discusses them again today, I will not stop the court..."

Seeing this, Huang Liji immediately realized that Emperor Tianqi was furious and no longer hesitated.

Feng Xiang saw it and immediately bought Dingli, fell to the ground, and said earnestly: "Your Majesty's relief, I have been thinking about it for several days and feel that something is possible, so I will discuss it... I will discuss it."

With the support of Huang Liji and others, the opposition was finally suppressed.

Immediately afterwards, the imperial court issued an edict, but nothing happened.

The reason why I have to discuss with the ministers is actually nothing to do. I directly issue an edict and send it to the cabinet. If the cabinet does not agree, it may be refuted.

Even if the cabinet pinched its nose and agreed and sent it to various departments for execution, the officials of these departments may also refute the imperial edict.

Emperor Tianqi made a fuss like this, and it was spread outside the palace. I don’t know who it was. The jokes about Emperor Tianqi began to spread, saying that Emperor Tianqi was making trouble. I wonder if he heard the treacherous and slandered the ancestral system and migrated the victims to the capital. Eight out of ten were acts of harming the people. The emperor was so old that he even cried.

Isn't this a complete fool, what is it?

I don’t know who spread such rumors. Anyway, they have a nose and eyes, and they say it really. There are still a few scholars in the Shilin who write poems and jokes. Of course... they are mostly obscure poems. Otherwise, I’m afraid the factory guards will come to the door.

Naturally, Emperor Apocalypse's anger and sadness could not last long, and soon he became happy again.

Wei Zhongxian was originally cautious, for fear that His Majesty would be in a bad mood these days and would anger His Majesty.

But who knew that Emperor Tianqi had not slept all night, neither went to ride and shoot nor fencing, but locked himself in Qinzheng Hall and wrote for half a night. Wei Zhongxian was sleepy and it was not easy to disturb him.

It was the third day that Emperor Tianqi beat him up and said, "Okay, it's finally done. Oh... I've been trying for half a night... Now I finally got another thought. Wei Fan, Wei Fan, this thing... is sealed and sent to the Zhang family tomorrow."

Wei Zhongxian felt curious, but Emperor Tianqi put a dense letter of writing thousands of words into his letter cover. He didn't dare to open it, so he smiled and said, "Your Majesty is tired, it's time to go to bed."

Emperor Tianqi stretched and thrust again, then said, "I am sleepy. I just can't stop worrying about my hard work. Remember, I will send it to you early tomorrow morning."

Wei Zhongxian responded quickly and muttered in his heart, putting away the things.

Emperor Aoki went to bed without mentioning it.

…………

When Zhang Jing heard about the disaster relief, he finally issued an edict, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, he himself didn't know whether this multi-pronged relief would still lead to the disaster of refugees like in history.

However, one thing can be confirmed. If he had not traveled through time and became the Jinyiwei, if he was just a farmer in Guanzhong, he would have to rebel in such a world, depending on the court's nature.

Now these people... are still enduring here, and there is no news of civil rebellion. Zhang Jingyi already feels that the people in Guanzhong are too hard-working and too kind and simple.

What Xinxian needs to do now is to deal with the impact of a large number of refugees who may arrive in Beijing in the future.

So he was busy for a while.

However, when he was patrolling the school, he found that a person in rags and ugly looks came to apply for the job.

This life is so ugly that Zhang Jingyi took a few more glances and finally couldn't help but step forward and ask, "What are you here to do?"

The reason I called him Mr. is just because he was wearing a long gown.

This man said, "My surname is Guan, whose name is Shaoning and whose courtesy name is Youcheng. I just arrived in Beijing and heard that I was recruiting a teacher here, so I came to apply for the recruitment."

Guan Shaoning...

Zhang Jingyi recited these three words in his mind, and always felt that the name sounded very familiar.

Yes, when he was in Jiangsu in his last life, he saw his monument in the park.

As for his life, it seems that this person was Tanhua from the first year of Chongzhen. In other words, if nothing unexpected happens, this year's Enke, a man named Guan Shaoning, will be third in the exam.

This man's family is very poor, how poor is that he even relies on a Taoist priest to support him in his studies.

But this person named Guan Shaoning had a miserable ending. After the Qing army captured Nanjing, he was killed because he refused to shave his hair and surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. The three sons, his wife and daughter-in-law were also killed.

"Where are you?"

"I am from Nanzhili." Guan Shaoning said.

Nanzhili is Jiangsu in later generations, so... it is probably the one Guan Shaoning who would not be wrong.

However, Zhang Jingyi still asked according to the procedure: "What are your knowledge?"

Guan Shaoning said: "The student was last year and just passed the examination."

The identity of a Juren is still very popular, but looking at his down-and-out appearance, on the one hand, he had just passed the Juren, and on the other hand, the imperial examinations have actually developed to the late Ming Dynasty and have long become a tool for the aristocratic clans who passed on their families to seek fame. After all, in order to get their children into fame and fortune, these families have accumulated all resources. Even if you can study, it would be useless if you don’t have the guidance of a famous teacher.

Therefore, Guan Shaoning can be described as a pervert. His family is so difficult that he can still win the imperial examination.

Of course, even if he passed the imperial examination, Guan Shaoning would not be valued at this time. After all,... he had almost no social relations.

There are also differences in the quality of Juren. If a child of aristocratic race wins Juren, I don’t know how many people like it. After all, social relations are there. Everyone will promote it for you in their hometowns, but Guan Shaoning is different, and probably few people care.

At this time, Guan Shaoning said again: "This time I go to Beijing, I want to participate in this year's Enko... it's just... it's just..."

Guan Shaoning seemed shy and a little unconfident: "It's just that he was inadequate. After arriving in Beijing... the food price rose again a few days ago. He was originally a coolie who had been working in Wancheng County for two months. After that, a fellow villager recommended students here, saying that the school here recruited teachers and provided accommodation to ensure three meals a day."

Zhang Jing smiled bitterly in her heart. Damn, it's weird that the juren is so kind.

However... people born from poor people are probably like this. After all,... the social relationship is very shallow, and I don’t know how those high-ranking officials play. The only specialty is reading and writing articles. But what about it? There are many juren in the capital, all waiting to take a look at you. Naturally, no one will look at you more.
