Qianlong: Qing Dynasty?What about my Daqing?

Chapter 335 30 years old, a hurdle.

Peng Jun's expression changed again and again.

My heart is also a little bitter.

No wonder Prime Minister Gu Song went to the Northeast to inspect collective farms.

Originally, the Xianghu faction thought that if the prime minister was not around, the deputy prime minister would be the prime minister.

Then in the imperial court, the Xianghu Party will be able to overwhelm the Guangdong Party, and it will be a good time for a while.

结果
The emperor is waiting for himself here.

This is letting yourself take the blame.

No, let the Xianghu Party take the blame!

Peng Jun thought about it.

I have to admit it myself.

The Xianghu Party is indeed more suitable for carrying this blame than the Guangdong Party.

Because most of the Cantonese Party members come from industrial and commercial homes, and the Xianghu Party are basically local big landlords.

If the Cantonese party is allowed to take the blame, it may turn into an attack on the imperial court's emphasis on business and new learning.

And the Xianghu Party is here to take the blame, no matter how much trouble there is, it can't think about industry, commerce, and new learning.

and so.

The emperor may have discussed it with the prime minister long ago.

Just waiting to promote myself to take the blame.

but
Look at it from another angle.

If I can help the court, I will help the emperor take the blame.

Then I can sit firmly in the position of prime minister for at least five or six years.

Think of this.

Peng Jun gritted his teeth.

"Your Majesty, if you want to make major changes to the imperial examinations now, you must prepare for the worst."

"Worst plan? Could someone rebel?" Emperor Zhu leaned forward and asked with interest.

Seeing this expression, Peng Jun muttered in his heart.

This is also the British Lord who will win the world immediately.

Now that the world is unified, there is no chance to lead the army to fight.

Even if there is a big fight in North America in the future, it is impossible for Emperor Zhu to go to North America to sit in command.

Therefore, there is a high probability that this founding emperor who conquered a territory as far away as the Han and Tang Dynasties, even larger than the Mongolian Empire, in just a few years, has a high probability that he will not have any chance to lead the army.

But he is only 29 years old, which is about the same age as when Li Shimin hacked his elder brother to death and persuaded his father to abdicate and become the Supreme Emperor.

The emperor didn't kill his eldest brother, and he didn't persuade his father.

And he didn't even kill the hero,
It can be said that so far, there are no black spots at all.

He doesn't think the current life is too boring and wants to do something, right?

thought here.

Peng Jun hurriedly waved his hands and said, "No, no, no rebellion is possible, but it may be more difficult to collect local land taxes. In addition, the possibility of civil uprisings in other places is also greatly increased."

Now the Ming Dynasty can realize direct tax collection only in Guangdong, Jiangxi, and Hunan, the three provinces that were recovered relatively early.

Even in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, there are still some prefectures and counties that have not been able to achieve direct access to the grassroots by officials, and in places like Sichuan and the Central Plains, local governance still continues the pattern of the former Qing Dynasty.

basically.

In addition to the nine provinces of Lanfang, Guangdong, Guangxi, Jiangxi, Hunan, Hubei, Fujian, Jiangsu, and Zhejiang.

In fact, the other provinces are not much different from the former Qing Dynasty except that they have changed the signboard of Ming Dynasty.

Daming's dominance in the nine southeastern provinces is very strong.

There are more than 30 bureaucrats in the country, and the total number of army and navy directly under the imperial court has reached 35, most of which are from the southeastern provinces.

The parliaments of these provinces also integrated the merchant class into the ruling group.

Therefore, the big landlords and big merchants in these nine provinces are considered to be one with the Ming court, but this is not the case in the Central Plains, Sichuan, and Guanzhong.

The Ming Dynasty was also able to control the vast grassroots villages above the county level, and it was still controlled by the landlords and gentry.

This time the imperial examination has been greatly reformed.

The first thing to hurt is the interests of these landlords and gentry.

It's normal to cause some turmoil.

The time has come to June of the 6th year of Guangfu.

Sichuan.

The temperature in Chengdu has also begun to rise, as a well-known stove in the country.

Summer in the Sichuan Basin is very hot.

After all, it is a basin.It is not easy to dissipate heat, and the river is densely covered with heavy water vapor. When the weather is hot in summer, there is a feeling of being steamed inside, which is very stuffy.

at this time.

Chengdu government prison.

Li Zhongren from Luojiang County, Mianzhou Prefecture walked out of the cell together with Du Rusong from Chengdu Prefecture next to him, as if he had been fished out of a water tank.

I haven't seen the sun for almost a year.

The morning sun was so glaring again.

Immediately.

Both of them were stung by the sunlight so that tears flowed from their eyes.

They were all imprisoned because of the last mass arrest by the Chengdu Gongyuan.

The charge was "unlawful assembly".

It is said that he was supposed to be sentenced to exile in Australia.

But because someone in the two people's family moved around, they were stunned to plead this big crime.

Both are now acquitted.

But because the case trial process is too long.

And this time there were a lot more people arrested.

The judges in Chengdu Mansion are not very willing to work overtime, so the case has been tried for more than a year before the dust is finally settled.

Sichuan is still under military control.

The new law of the Ming Dynasty can't control it.

Therefore, the officials and bureaucrats under the Chengdu Mansion in Sichuan are all left over from the former Qing Dynasty.

Chengdu Prefecture Prison is the former Sichuan Dungeon, and the jailers and officials in charge are all old people who stayed behind.

Of course, everyone is open to money.

Those who have a way and money have been released a long time ago.

Those who have little money but can afford a lawyer will procrastinate.

The poorer ones were directly regarded as the first offenders and sent to Australia.

The construction of the rule of law has a long way to go.

Although Ming Dynasty is working hard to build the rule of law, it is a long road.

Even in Guangzhou and Shanghai, where the trend was first established, there are still many corruption problems.

and so.

In this era when the laws of the Ming Dynasty seem to be "you law and I laugh" in many cases,

Sichuan, which is under military control, has even greater judicial problems.

Everyone is used to it.

After all, the Qing Dynasty was still alive and kicking a few years ago.

To press before.

People like Li Zhongren and Du Rusong had their heads chopped off on the spot—for the officials of the Qing Dynasty, it is a great credit for charging you with treason.

The two squatted at the door of the cell.

Tears flowed down.

It took a while to finally get used to the sunlight outside.

At this time, Li Zhongren, who had lost a lot of weight, let out a sigh of relief, and came to pick him up. The second brother Li Zhongyi smiled bitterly and said, "Little brother, I really can't blame others this time. It's my own fault. I'll go to the exam earlier." You are a scholar, maybe you are now the mayor of Daqiao Town, Luojiang County."

At this time, Li Zhongyi hesitated to speak.

"What's wrong?" Li Zhongren asked.

"Brother, there is no exam."

"What doesn't have to be tested? 1"

"Imperial examination...the imperial examination is no longer allowed."

"What?! The imperial court canceled the imperial examination?!" Li Zhongren and Du Rusong were stunned when they heard the words, and said in surprise,

"It's not that the imperial court canceled the imperial examination, it's that those who are over 30 years old can't take the exam!!"

Those who are over 30 years old are not given the test? !
Boom!

Li Zhongren staggered and sat on the ground suddenly.

He is exactly thirty this year.
