Chapter 361: Stalling into Mu

The Prince of Yiyang took the opportunity to scream.

It looks like it is in pain.

Emperor Aoki glanced at him and said nothing.

The ministers gathered up and whispered to the vulgar words on the wall.

At this time someone said, "Look at there."

"Latin is never allowed, all labor service will be paid."

"Officers and soldiers are equal, and gentry and people are treated equally."

"Spreading acres to earn acres will benefit the country and the people."

See these things.

Seeing this, Liu Hongxun couldn't help but say, "Isn't this just to rebel? This is to shake the foundation of the country. Your Majesty... They don't even care about the fame of scholars. Who cares about the fame of the imperial examination? And... the people do not serve labor service and do not pay food, but how can they get it?"

When Emperor Tianqi saw this, he couldn't help feeling guilty.

It's so big.

So much so that Emperor Tianqi, who just wanted to abolish the ancestral system, felt that this was a bit too far.

The Prince of Yiyang cried beside him and shed tears: "They supported the peasant community and forced the land to be cleared. They said that taxes were collected according to the amount of land. The more land, the higher the tax. Isn't this going to force people to death? Many people can no longer survive. And... some unlucky people took this opportunity to slander the local genius and kind people in the village, saying that they had committed a crime and were arrested and wanted to be tried."

"Now, everyone knows that the laws of the court are no longer counted. Our Zhu Ming's prestige here is gone. Everyone knows that there is a county magistrate named Guan Shaoning, who is the local emperor here. They have nowhere to talk about their sufferings. Your Majesty, I am not here to complain because my relatives suffered a loss, but I am worried about the country and country of Ming Dynasty. Now many farmers and many rogues have been motivated by Guan Shaoning. Even in my Wangzhuang, there are some ruthless scholars. I wonder if they have fallen into Guan Shaoning's evil, saying that they want to clear Wangzhuang."

The Prince of Yiyang continued crying and said, "Now, let alone Fengqiu, the people of the nearby counties are no longer at ease. Everyone says that they are good at managing Shaoning. Except for Guan Shaoning, everyone is a stolen official. Local local geniuses and good people have become evil gentry and gentry, and scholars with fame are also slandered."

"What's even more terrifying is that they also say that raising slaves is illegal. People from the farmhouse go everywhere to investigate who has raised private slaves. The whole county is full of reports, and many people really can't live. Now it's chaotic and has a very deep legacy. Not only do they keep saying such vulgar words everywhere, they also recruit bandits everywhere, and invite bandits into the city and join in the big move."

Emperor Tianqi was dizzy when he heard this, but when the prince of Yiyang cried, all the officials felt that the situation became serious.

Everyone looked at Emperor Tianqi in unison, and even the gentlest Huang Liji said, "Your Majesty, if this is true, it will cause endless harm. This is not a joke. What is the difference between this and the bandits? There is no such thing as the bandits."

Emperor Tianqi looked at Sun Chengzong.

Sun Chengzong said, "You will know what happened after watching it on the spot."

Emperor Tianqi nodded and said, "This Fengqiu is Zhang Qing's fiefdom. I don't care about how he is doing. Then again, since Fengqiu is so bad, you just go to other counties to take refuge."

When the Prince of Yiyang and others heard this, they immediately lowered their heads and said nothing, as if they were thinking about their thoughts.

But no one hoarded it, they were selling land. The land on the market suddenly increased. Some small farmers happily took some money and got the land. Some people were still waiting and watching, but there was no hurry anyway. Let's take a look first, maybe the land price would drop.

Many people complained throughout Fengqiu County.

Moreover, this Fengqiu is still running schools, paving roads on the west bridge, repairing city walls, and recruiting strong men.

Logically speaking, these many measures should be used by local gentry.

In the past, when the county magistrate arrived at the local area, no matter what he wanted to do, he would first beg for alms from the gentry and ask a certain kind person to come forward to preside over the presidency.

But now, Guan Shaoning did not follow the usual practice, ignored these gentry and kicked them away.

The Prince of Yiyang is very popular now because his princess comes from the Liu family of Fengqiu, and Liu family is the largest gentry here. Not only did his ancestors produce several Jinshi, but they also have a lot of land, so the most harm was the one this time.

Not only that, after the trend of Guan Shaoning began to storm in Fengqiu, many people in nearby counties were eager to try it out.

Seeing the unruly people starting to have delusions, it was the gentry in Yiyang County. I heard that some farmers looked at them now, which was also strange.

It's scary to think about it.

As soon as he received the message, His Majesty was coming here, the Prince of Yiyang made up his mind to file a lawsuit. On the one hand, judging from the information received by his wife and brothers and gentry, Guan Shaoning's actions were simply naked bandits.

On the other hand, he was also worried that the Ming Dynasty... shouldn't really be done with people.

At this time, he began to talk to all officials about the matter of the new county, such as investigating slaves and forcing taxes, which scared all officials to their faces green.

You know, their family... also has land.

How can I do this and give the people a way out?

The prince of Yiyang said: "The unruly people are now scheming. They are now playing Guan Shaoning's sign everywhere. Guan Shaoning uses this to invite people to win the hearts and collude with bandits. Sooner or later, I will rebel. I heard that... Now there are all kinds of ruthless words, but unfortunately, Your Majesty is deceived and he doesn't notice it. Wait... If Henan continues like this, his surname will no longer be Zhu."

The officials listened silently, with their expressions very solemn.

Because although these methods are not exactly like bandits, in their eyes, there is no difference between them and bandits' behavior.

Obviously, the Prince of Yiyang was very satisfied with everyone's reaction.

The Prince of Yiyang was still talking nonsense: "You can't indulge yourself anymore. Guan Shaoning is just a cruel official. What he does is rebellion. Now the people of Fengqiu do not recognize the court. I tell you the truth. The prince sent eunuchs to him, and they ignored them."

"And you also study. You don't know what Professor Guan Shaoning is doing. He is all made up. A scholar with fame can go to see him, but he ignores him and leaves him there. You said... is this what a human does? He is also a Jinshi, but he told people that the eight-legged essay way cannot be used to kill enemies, nor can he learn economics. It is useless to learn the words of the saint over and over again. He encourages everyone to stop the imperial examination and learn new studies."
