Chapter 1955 Li Ermao's second bullet
"This has nothing to do with me."
Xu Jingchang wanted to visit the little girl, but Zhu Zhanji's actions were obviously faster than him, so he was rejected.
"It was Shen Shitou who was guarding outside the door himself. What does your Majesty mean?"
Xu Jingchang was a little anxious and came to Fang Xing to find a solution.
Fang Xingcai sent the little girl away. When he heard the news, he was stunned and then ordered: "Tell the lady about this and let her go into the city to take a look."
Xu Jingchang said embarrassedly: "Brother, I forgot the difference between men and women, but Dehua, Your Majesty's reaction... has it been a bit too much? If the little mother hadn't been ordinary, I would have worried that there would be one more concubine in the Ming Dynasty."
There were gradually more voices and Wuyou shouting inside. Fang Xing asked, "Is that person in the mansion intentional or unintentional?"
"Don't lie to me!"
Xu Jingchang wanted to fool him, but Fang Xing said that he was very embarrassed: "It was just that there were too many people..."
The streets of Beiping City are wide, and Fang Xing could not imagine how domineering the woman in Dingguo Duke's Mansion was.
Two carriages collided, and the scene was awakened and just imagined it, and then said, "My mother was about to go back. This delay made Duke Ding, your Majesty angry!"
"Jiaozhi has repeated many times. If someone takes the opportunity to spread rumors and says that the little girl has been discriminated against in Peking, who can bear the responsibility?"
Fang Xing didn't know if Zhu Zhanji was angry, but he was a little angry.
"Duke Ding, that little lady... I have protected you! Your concubine should be cleaned and go to jail!"
"That woman..." Xu Jingchang said disapprovingly: "It's enough to buy horse bones with a thousand gold coins? Do you want me to apologize?"
"You really..." Xu Jingchang saw that Fang Xing was nodding seriously, and was a little embarrassed.
Fang Xing looked very serious, "What's wrong?"
He felt that Xiao Niang's contribution to the Ming Dynasty was a hundred times greater than Xu Jingchang. One was similar to a playboy, who relied on the merits of his father and grandfather to enjoy his blessings. The other helped the Ming Dynasty stabilize Jiaozhi, which was comparable to the achievements of opening the border.
"I'm younger than you, but I've experienced a lot."
Fang Xing said seriously: "The reason why people are human is because of wisdom and bottom line. Wisdom makes us live better, and bottom line makes us awe!"
"What are you in awe?"
Xu Jingchang felt that Fang Xing was really crazy. In addition to respecting his ancestors and the emperor these days, who else should my Xu family respect?
Fang Xing pointed to his heart and said, "Famous reputation, whether it is a slaughter or a false benevolence or righteousness, Duke Dingguo, when he dreamed at midnight, sat alone in meditation, and asked himself, what kind of person am I? There are only benefits and benefits in my eyes? Or do I stick to the bottom line. And what is your bottom line? You are a honorary relative and a national relative, what bottom line should you have?"
Xu Jingchang said depressedly: "I pay the tax that should be paid, and I will not take advantage of the Ming Dynasty. If there is something wrong with the state, I never avoid my brother. I will work hard when I should, and pay when I should pay. If necessary, I dare to carry a knife and get on the horse. Isn't it enough to fight for the Ming Dynasty?"
"not enough!"
Fang Xing felt that he was talking to the duck, and he finally advised: "We must put the Ming Dynasty first. You are a honorary relative. If you can't do this, you will have trouble in the future!"
Xu Jingchang shook his head and stood up to say goodbye. He really felt that he was cooperating with the emperor with all his strength and had become an alternative among the honorary relatives, but Fang Xing was not enough. This is to ask me, Xu Jingchang, to apologize to that little girl!
"Forget it, this is because my brother's house is wrong. It's time to go back."
After he returned, he personally sent some medicinal materials and gifts, but he was intercepted.
"What does your majesty mean?"
Xu Jingchang felt like a mantis that was only preying on, and always felt a chill in the vest. After coming out, he immediately went to find Fang Xing again.
"Dear, what does Your Majesty mean?"
Fang Xing felt that this was an opportunity to show Zhu Zhanji's attitude towards Xunqi, so he said, "Your Majesty is angry."
Xu Jingchang suddenly regretted and said, "Brother, I'm here!"
Zhu Zhanji is meaningless. My little mother is injured, so she will be recuperating in the capital for a while.
Kexunqi...
Fang Xing felt that Zhu Zhanji was holding a small notebook and recording the faults of the honorary relatives one by one, so he waited for the opportunity to start liquidation.
It is useless to be a good person in the country, and it can only be regarded as a leader.
They used marriage and other means to gradually form a huge group, which was powerful enough to influence the government.
So the importance of civil servants is highlighted.
"Someone in the court put on a bulletin and said that the concubines of Duke Ding dared to be domineering. This shows that Xunqinqi is illegal. This is a secret encouragement of Your Majesty to cleanse Xunqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqinqin
Huang Zhong thought this was a good thing, but Fang Xing disagreed with this view.
"Your Majesty wants to cleanse the queen, but you can't do it at the moment, at least until you reach a balance."
Zhu Zhanji also needs honor and relatives to control civil servants. Now, weakening any side is destroying the Great Wall.
But Xu Jingchang didn't know! He thought that Zhu Zhanji had lost patience with Xunqi, so he became frightened.
He invited Fang Xing and Zhu Gaoxu to dinner with cherished it, which was a test.
"Your Highness, I, Xu Jingchang, are loyal to Your Majesty. This is my concubine's fault. I have locked her up. With just one word, I will kill her!"
Xu Jingchang was already hating the concubine to the core, and the murderous aura behind him was almost uncovered.
Zhu Gaoxu is now thinking about what to bring overseas. He heard this and said casually: "Then let's kill it."
Xu Jingchang said with a bitter face: "Your Highness, it's not that I don't want to kill you, it's illegal!"
Li Ermao and his friends stared at the officials of Xunqi and civil and military all day. Once they found the mistake, haha! Don’t hesitate, hurry up and put on the bullets, and then wait for a battle to become famous.
Zhu Gaoxu said disdainfully: "You have no courage to learn any of my uncle's strengths back then, so I'm really incompetent."
Xu Jingchang said helplessly: "When my father went there, hey! It's hard to describe it!"
Fang Xing was thinking about Li Ermao's recent silence. He was wondering if he would provide Li Ermao with some shells, and at least he could fire a shot in the Ministry of Enquiry.
"Shandong seems to have encountered another disaster this year."
Fang Xing finally gave up that plan. It was not that friendship was at work, but that he did not want Li Ermao to take the lead in firing Xunqi, which triggered a big debate.
Li Ermao was dormant. After impeaching the emperor last time he was inclined to seek official positions, he became famous and then began to lie dormant.
This thought that is not in line with the nature of young people makes many people secretly wary of him, but as Li Ermao fell silent, these vigilances slowly dissipated.
So when his memorial was sent to Zhu Zhanji's case, even Zhu Zhanji was a little surprised.
The content of this memorial is very simple, continuing the characteristics of the academy not being long-winded and not embellishing words, and directly pointing out the biggest constraints that the Ming Dynasty wants to develop at present.
tax!
From using trade channels to guide those luxury merchants to pay taxes and from collecting taxes on the luxury goods industry, the commercial taxes in the Ming Dynasty are growing step by step.
But since the construction of the North-South Grand Channel began, even the luxurious Ministry of Revenue, which has taken action in recent years, has begun to tighten its wallets.
"Your Majesty, there are many cement kilns to be built, and they all need to be built, otherwise the expenses I have brought over will make me want to throw myself into the cement kiln and burn to death."
Xia Yuanji gradually grew old. Compared with the heroic emperors above, many of these ministers were old.
Zhu Zhanji nodded and said, "Li Ermao's memorial said that the Ming Dynasty can use construction to drive the economy. This is a topic in the academy. The purpose is to benefit all regions and industries through construction."
Xia Yuanji agreed: "It's like this. If you build a road and you must buy a lot of things locally. In addition, the road is good and you can travel in the future, but this is cheaper for merchants."
This statement secretly supports Li Ermao's point of view: Your Majesty, let's start collecting taxes in full.
Zhu Zhanji looked at the important officials below and said meaningfully: "He said that the Ming Dynasty could start to cancel the tax exemption of gentry. What do you think?"
Damn it!
This Li Ermao is more radical than awakening!
Fang Xing didn't come, and Yang Rong concluded that he definitely didn't know about this, otherwise he would definitely come to make trouble.
This topic is so big, like a bomb being thrown out and no one dares to answer.
Zhu Zhanji looked at the memorial and said expressionlessly: "Li Ermao said it would be better to have a pilot project first, even if it fails, the impact will not be great."
But the ministers still didn't talk to each other.
This topic is almost a taboo. Since Zhu Yuanzhang began to give preferential treatment to scholars, those preferential treatment policies have long been replaced by unspoken rules, and the scope and number of preferential treatments have been expanding.
These are all violations, and everyone knows this.
But who would like to reveal this problem?
Zhu Zhanji looked at the ministers, but in the end, Zhang Ben took the position.
Zhang himself was nicknamed "Liang Zhang". Who dares to say that he is honest than him in the civil and military affairs of the court?
Zhu Zhanji looked at Zhang Ben's face with excitement and couldn't help but nod.
"Your Majesty, I think this matter is right."
I went to Jin Zhong, but I came to Zhang Ben.
This man looked like a stubborn person, much more powerful than Jin Zhong's pretending to be crazy and stupid back then.
Chapter completed!
