Daming: Old Zhu, we agreed not to rush!

Chapter 54 Zhu Biao's Promise

Officials and gentry pay food as a whole.

This is a policy that only existed during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, and it was after the national financial crisis reached a certain level.

For the current Daming, the national conditions are different, and the difficulty of implementing it is simply too great.

The most important thing is that now that the world is initially settled, Zhu Yuanzhang rewards the ministers who have made meritorious deeds, which allows them to pay for it together.

I can't justify it!
At least in the hearts of those with vested interests, it is difficult to get through.

Anyway, Su Jing never thought that this could be changed, and Zhu Biao just said it casually.

However, what he didn't know was that at this time, Zhu Biao's heart was already in a turbulent state.

Xu Miaoyun on the side was also shocked by Su Jing's words.

The government and the gentry pay the food together?
In Xu Miaoyun's view, it is definitely a good thing for scholars to be exempted from tax and corvee.

This is a good move to promote the efforts of scholars.

However, what this Mr. Su meant was that if this continued, Daming would not be able to get better anyway.

In Xu's house, Xu Miaoyun had also met Zhu Yuanzhang, and she also knew about Zhu Yuanzhang's life.

Because his father Xu Da often told her about following Zhu Yuanzhang to fight for the world in the past.

In Xu Miaoyun's impression, Zhu Yuanzhang is definitely a very wise founding hero.

but.

Just listened to the class with Prince Zhu Biao for a while, and then heard the content.

Xu Miaoyun was shocked in her heart, because after thinking about it carefully, she also believed that what Su Jing said was right.

soon.

The news from Zhu Yuanzhang came back, and Xu Miaoyun could go home directly.

Of course, this was conveyed by the servants of the Xu family.

Su Jingquan pretended not to see it, and didn't want to inquire about it.

"Mr. Su, my daughter is going back first. Listening to Mr. Su's words today is very helpful. Thank you again, Mr. Su."

Xu Miaoyun bowed to Su Jing, showing great respect.

Not only because Su Jing is the teacher of Prince Zhu Biao.

"Walk slowly."

Su Jing just said casually.

But Zhu Biao said to Xu Miaoyun: "I will definitely come to apologize someday."

Zhu Biao is still too kind-hearted, and always feels that he has caused Xu Miaoyun.

"Brother Niu, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to listen to Mr. Su's teachings. Speaking of which, I would have made the money."

Xu Miaoyun said with a smile, without any dissatisfaction.

Seeing this, Zhu Biao felt even more apologetic, so he picked up a few sweet potatoes from the ground and handed them to Xu Miaoyun, saying, "Bring this back and give uncle a taste, it's my apology."

"I'll make sure my father tastes it."

Xu Miaoyun nodded and left.

This little episode is over.

Zhu Biao picked up the hoe and began to dig sweet potatoes with Su Jing.

"Master Su, I've thought about it. What you said is that officials and gentry pay food as a whole is definitely a correct idea."

Zhu Biao said to Su Jing.

Su Jing smiled and said: "There are many correct ideas, but many things cannot be done correctly."

"It's been like this since ancient times. Wasn't Wang Jinggong's reform right? Didn't all of them be abolished in the end except for one method to strengthen the combat effectiveness of the army."

"As for you, Niu Yi, you don't have to worry about food and clothing, and you're not a commoner. Live a good life. The things I said are all in the future, and it's not your turn."

"As long as you don't learn from those officials and gentry to exploit the people, I will be satisfied."

Su Jing thinks that she is still a person who can see through.

He and Zhu Biao have a relationship as mentor and apprentice, and his starting point for Zhu Biao is just that much.

Hearing Su Jing's words, Zhu Biao immediately replied seriously: "Master Su, don't worry, the students will definitely not learn from those people to enslave and exploit the people."

At this moment, Zhu Biao is making a promise to Su Jing as the prince, although it is only in his heart.

"Then I will remember what you said."

Su Jing also looked at Zhu Biao and said with a smile.

"As it should be!"

Zhu Biao replied decisively.

Ying Tianfu.

Forbidden City, Kunning Palace.

Xu Miaoyun, who had just returned from Lishui County, did not go home, but was summoned to the palace by Empress Ma.

"Miaoyun has seen the queen."

Xu Miaoyun saluted Empress Ma respectfully.

Empress Ma said kindly: "Miao Yun, you don't need to salute, just treat this place as your home. I summoned you here just to see you."

The relationship between the Zhu and Xu families is still very good.

"Yes, Queen."

Xu Miaoyun also relaxed a lot, in front of Queen Ma, she was very relaxed.

After all, this was the one who hugged me when I was a child.

Empress Ma smiled and asked, "Miaoyun, I heard that you met Biao'er in Lishui County today, is that right?"

Xu Miaoyun nodded and said: "Yes, I didn't expect such a coincidence that the prince's brother is there."

Empress Ma continued: "Then you also met Mr. Su, what do you think of Mr. Su?"

Xu Miaoyun was taken aback for a moment, she thought Empress Ma should focus on meeting the prince.

But she reacted quickly, and briefly recalled: "Mr. Su is a wonderful person, unusual."

"Miaoyun has never seen such a teacher. Miaoyun admires Mr. Su's insight."

Empress Ma nodded slightly and said: "It seems that we see the same thing, Mr. Su really has great foresight."

Then, the two chatted casually, and Xu Miaoyun left.

As soon as Xu Miaoyun left, Empress Ma smiled and said:

"Miaoyun is pretty good, but it's still a few years before he leaves the cabinet, Mr. Su's side is not easy to talk about."

If Su Jing knew that Empress Ma had this idea, she would definitely be dumbfounded.

In his eyes, Xu Miaoyun is just a little girl now, how could it be possible to make a pair, the age gap is too big.

But at this time, women can get married when they are fourteen and men are sixteen.

Su Jing, who is still unmarried at the age of 20, is not particularly late, but it is not too much.

"Sister, how's it going? What did Miao Yun hear when Su Jing gave a lecture?"

Zhu Yuanzhang walked quickly to Kunning Palace and asked Empress Ma.

In fact, he originally wanted to ask Xu Miaoyun himself, but the truth is that what Su Jing usually taught was too "horrible", so he felt uneasy if he didn't ask.

But Queen Ma stopped him in time.

This Xu Miaoyun is not someone else, his father Xu Da is Zhu Yuanzhang's number one general.

When people were fighting for the world for the old Zhu family, they fought with all their might and went forward.

It would be inappropriate to question someone else's daughter because of such a small matter.

That's why Empress Ma came forward to have a chat with Xu Miaoyun.

"It's nothing special, it's just a brief talk about the opinions of corrupt officials. Miao Yun is not interested in these, so he didn't listen carefully."

Empress Ma said.

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he immediately asked: "What do corrupt officials think? Su Jing still says these things?"

It is related to Su Jing, Zhu Yuanzhang still wants to ask more clearly.

Empress Ma rolled his eyes at him and said, "Anyway, Biao'er will definitely write a letter back when the time comes, and you will know when the time comes."

"Don't do some secret investigation by Gong Weilang, it will hurt Wei Guogong's heart!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw Empress Ma's attitude, he also followed Empress Ma's way:

"Understood, sister, I definitely won't."

outside the palace.

Xu Miaoyun felt a little uneasy in her heart, although she and Empress Ma had a happy conversation, she was actually very nervous.

Or Su Jing's remarks were too bold, directly questioning Zhu Yuanzhang's policy.

　It seems to be recovering from the sun, it's uncomfortable
