eldest son of Ming dynasty

Chapter 517 The First Head

Governance is a myriad of things.

In the 13 provinces in the two capitals of the Ming Dynasty, with such a large land and such a large population, even if one event happened in each county, the emperor could not control it, let alone more than one event at all.

It can't be managed by itself. If it is not serious, the official system will inevitably enter a certain degree of incapacity.

Therefore, in ancient times, officials were killed and rebelled in some places, and the imperial court had to react and send a large army to eliminate them.What are the governments at the county, prefecture, and provincial levels doing?
No power at this time?But when dealing with obedient people, isn't there a lot of tricks?
Zhu Houzhao has always attached great importance to the selection and appointment of officials, and it is also to deal with this. On this basis, he emphasizes execution.

Without executive power, no matter how nice your slogan is, no matter how good the political environment is, and no matter how sufficient the conditions are, nothing will be done.

Because no one really cares about it, whether things can be done or not depends on God's will and luck.

Many years ago, he said, you must give me a result of what I am eyeing.

It was for this purpose that the attendant room was set up in the first place.

In fact, the effect is still very significant.

At least those things he cares about, such as Kaihai, library, academy, horse administration, etc., are all done.

So the officials were also afraid of attracting the emperor's attention,

At that time, Xie Guangxie and Liu Chun were concerned about the "reversal" issue, which was Zhang Cong's reversal from exposing corruption to becoming corrupt himself, which was extremely easy to make the emperor suspicious.

That's why Liu Chun said that the lie was going to be rounded up.

It's a pity that the emperor still paid attention.

Not only pay attention, but also very strong.

Wang Jia was ordered to leave Beijing urgently.

This is actually an abnormal state. In the past, a minister-level official did not come here, but now he is suddenly a Ge Lao. In the final analysis, things are handled very improperly.

Mr. Ge, there is nothing else to do. Zhu Houzhao originally wanted Wang Jia to be in charge of the immigration. After all, immigrants need to give money and better seeds, and they need the Ministry of Household Affairs.

Now he has changed to another person, and still orders Yang Yiqing.

For Chinese people who have settled down and relocated, immigration is really not an easy job. It's not that it can't be done, but how to get it at a low cost.

The refugees didn't eat or drink, even though they knew that the south of the Yangtze River was a good place, they didn't have to worry about it!
People who take the exam sometimes worry about travel expenses, let alone refugees.

So it can only be supplied by the court.

However, if immigration is to be effective, it must be tens of thousands of people, but how much food will it get?

The common people had no land in the past, and it took a period of time to cultivate the land. When the grain grew, the court could sell it. How long would it take?
Therefore, after discussing with his courtiers, Zhu Houzhao still felt that this strategy needed to be implemented for a long time.

In the short term, tens of 10 people will not be able to get through, and can only be done year after year, one after another.Raise Shuofang little by little.

"Is there anything else?"

the emperor asked.

Qi Chengsui, Minister of the Ministry of War, reported, "Your Majesty, there is also the matter of the official horse ranch in Shaanxi. The grassland has been invaded. I have sent someone to verify..."

"Who is it?"

Qi Chengsui was a little afraid to answer.

Yang Yiqing put it bluntly, "Military and civilian supervisors steal from themselves, and honored relatives and clans sue! From the Hongwu period to the present, the malpractice of the horse administration has spread from the capital to the world, and there are many supervisors and herdsmen in Shaanxi.

These official horse farms have long existed in name but are dead in reality.The so-called existence of the name, the name of the grassland, the section of the painting and the seal of the annals, the book of the department, everything is there; the so-called real death, the land has been plowed for a long time, the soil is not its nature, the yellow pole stands, the grass is entwined, the smell dare not approach people, and the only suffering is to feed the horse. "

"Military and civilian guards steal from themselves, honored relatives and clans sue..."

Zhu Houzhao read this sentence.

The meaning of this is to occupy up and down.

In fact, they not only occupied the pasture, but also occupied the fields of the army.

This matter is much more serious than the deduction of wages in a small Huai'an mansion.

Zhu Houzhao walked down with his hands behind his back. He thought to himself, when Zhu Yuanzhang was full of pride and ambition, he said that he raised millions of soldiers without spending a grain of rice on the people.

Did he expect that after only a few decades, future generations would not be able to do this anymore.

But the problem cannot be dragged on from generation to generation.

He has succeeded in opening the sea and returning to the set, the court is under control, and there is no shortage of silver.Both the Beijing camp and the frontier army have direct elites. If this problem is to be solved, the conditions are actually relatively mature.

"Old Yang Ge."

"The old minister is here."

"There must be an explanation for this matter."

"Go and find out how many hectares there are in the registered grassland, how many hectares have been occupied, and the key point is who has taken it up."

Yang Yiqing was slightly shocked.

He knew Emperor Zhengde well.The character of this ancestor is actually a bit like the Emperor Taizu back then, either he would not do it, or he would do it absolutely.As long as you start doing it, it will not be in vain.

"Old minister, I understand."

"Let go and do it."

In fact, it is not easy to find out the bottom line.

But everyone knows how to be flexible. For example, if [-] hectares of grassland is occupied, it must be clear about the bulk of it. You must measure an acre, and measure it bit by bit, which is too rigid.

On the way out of the palace, Qi Chengsui followed Yang Yiqing.

The two old men were a little silent, they both knew what the emperor's first step represented.

outside the Meridian Gate,
Qi Chengsui first said: "Your Majesty's account, I will send someone to understand it. When the time comes... Elder Ge,"

"What do you want to say?"

"There are many military settlements and grasslands involved, and those who have always investigated the fields of the world have preserved their lives, but they can't keep their lives. The subordinates are worried about the old man."

"I have been in Shaanxi for a long time, and you and I know the situation on the frontier. If you don't do this, the rejuvenation of the world is just sewing and mending. Your Majesty has high ambitions. If you raise troops in the future, if the national strength is not enough, the people in the world will only suffer more than now."

Yang Yiqing raised his head and recalled, "At that time, everyone knew that Mr. Dongshan (Liu Daxia) was kind to me, but when he was in trouble, I did not help him. This means that I was ungrateful. But at that time, I also thought that I should resolutely use troops. In that situation, in public, I was the governor of Shaanxi at the imperial court, and in private, I was Mr. Dongshan’s long-forgotten friend. And the so-called gentleman, should it be for the public or for the private?"

"Naturally, it is for the public. People in the world have not understood the meaning of elder Ge for a long time."

"That's it. It was public at the time, but it is private at this time. No matter how you face Mr. Dongshan, you can't pass it."

Qi Chengsui couldn't help admiring him.

"It's a rare opportunity for a sage king to come to court. Really, I, Yang Yiqing, am still the first emperor appointed by the emperor. If I do nothing, what's the fun in this life?"

Talking about it in this way, I don't feel so suffocated, but have a kind of pleasure of realizing my ambition.

"Xiaguan is willing to follow the elder, and I will not regret it in this life!"

Qi Chengsui was regarded as his old subordinate, and Yang Yiqing didn't have the slightest doubt.

"But, it's a pity."

"What's the pity, Mr. Ge?"

"Back when we were in the local area, people couldn't do it lightly, but now we live in the center, but there is no one available to stir up the muddy water."

Qi Chengsui frowned and thought for a while, "It's really hard to find such a person. How about Shuntian Governor Gu Renyi?"

"He has an upright temper, but that's Fei Zichong's."

Ah, if there is still this restriction, it is basically hard to find in the world.
