Daming: Lao Zhu is not dead yet, you want me to rebel?

“Officials can be exempted from service grain at least six dan, and at most they can be exempted entirely!”

“In other words, officials are naturally able to accumulate more assets than ordinary people, which will in turn exacerbate the divide between rich and poor and land annexation.”

“When the gap between the rich and the poor becomes so great that the people cannot bear it, they will naturally rise up.”

“By then, the world will turn into the chaotic times of the late Yuan Dynasty again, and another Zhu Yuanzhang will appear in the world!”

After these words fell

“This person is exaggerating! Don’t worry about being on top!”

At this time, Mao Xiang also became indignant. This small landowner was simply picky.

How could it lead to the subjugation of the country when he was just exempted from military service?

Because he was bullied by officials when he was young, he thought that he was not good at officials, so he set a salary for officials. It can be called the lowest in history.

They were given free food only to appease the officials, and it was only free food, not tax exemption.

But in Zhu Yuan’s eyes, could Zhu Yuanzhang’s move lead to the destruction of the country?

Zhu Yuanzhang also looked gloomy. He slowly shook his head and said,”What’s the rush? If he can’t make sense, we have our own explanation……”

“yes!”

When Mao Xiang heard this, he looked at the wall with an unkind expression. His life and death depended on his next words.

On the other side,

Zhu Di also frowned and said:”Brother, you are right. Your Majesty is just giving some free rations to the officials. The amount is not big.”

“What you said is correct or incorrect. But the more he drank, the more enthusiastic Zhu Heng became:”Just looking at them, the amount is not big.””

“But have you never thought that there is a loophole in this strategy?”

“If the common people put themselves and their fields in the name of officials to be exempted from grain service, how much less grain would the court receive?”

“Or……”Zhu Heng took another sip of wine and said with a sigh:

“By then, will the imperial court be able to collect food?”

“If barbarians rose up and invaded, what would the Ming Dynasty do to resist it?”

“If you were the emperor of the last days, what would you do if all the civil and military officials of the dynasty had their own land as a refuge?”

On the other side.

The atmosphere suddenly became depressing, and you could hear a needle drop!

Zhu Yuanzhang paused with the brush in his hand, leaving a big ink mark on the paper, and a chill surged up. He couldn’t answer any of these three questions! What’s more , The end of the world! So, the preferential treatment he gave to the officials actually became one of the reasons for the collapse of the Ming Dynasty? He stood up suddenly and turned to look at Mao Xiang:”Tell me, are there any people who want to protect their land now?”

”

“In the upper position, Wei Chen is only investigating the bribery of officials. This sheltered land has not paid attention to it yet.……”

Mao Xiang immediately knelt down and said in panic

“waste! Zhu

Yuanzhang was furious, kicked him, and said with a gloomy expression:”It will happen, it will definitely happen.””

He is very clear about the virtues of officials.

Pushing the envelope is their special skill, and climbing up the pole is their innate instinct.

Since there is such a loophole, someone will definitely take advantage of it! If it is not there now, it does not mean that it will be in the future. No!

Just……

“Who is this person?”

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the wall with a confused expression on his face.

He had not thought of this matter, and the all-pervasive pro-military captain’s mansion had not thought of it. Why could this young man think of it?

Can he predict the future?

Or… is this just a subtle act?

His eyes suddenly narrowed. Knowing the slightest thing is a sage’s method in Confucianism. You can tell the autumn by seeing a leaf, and you can deduce the future trend by just seeing a glimpse of the existing things…

He was silent for a moment and turned to look at Mao. Xiang said coldly:”After you go back, investigate the matter of Tuobei Field for us!”

“yes!”

Mao Xiang hurriedly responded.

But he also took a careful look at the wall, and he was shocked.

This young man actually pointed out all the dereliction of duty in the Imperial Guard’s Mansion in one sentence, which even made him suffer.

Who the hell is this person!

On the other hand,

Zhu Di was in shock, his mind was in a state of confusion due to the explosive news, and he couldn’t even notice anything else.

He just said in a daze:”Why is this so? , how come my Ming Dynasty is reduced to the point where it can’t even collect taxes?”

“Three hundred years of national destiny is too little. Not to mention the eight hundred years that surpassed the Zhou Dynasty, at least the Han Dynasty still lasted four hundred years!”

“Have you read a book?”Zhu Heng glanced at him

“ah? I……”Zhu Di’s old face turned red. He was just skipping class.……

“I still suffer the disadvantage of being uneducated.……”Zhu Heng couldn’t help but shake his head

“If you have read books, you should start from”The Great Unification of the Yuan Dynasty”》、《Tai Ping Huan Yu Ji》、《From the geographical household registration records of”Cefu Yuangui”, we can see the changes in the household registration and land of officials and people all over the world.”

“The general trend is that a lot of land has mysteriously disappeared from the household registers, the number of refugees has increased, and officials have become richer and richer without increasing their land.”

“If you are good at math, you will know with a little calculation based on proportions that the national destiny of the Ming Dynasty lasted for three hundred years.”

“This is also the time it takes for land annexation to reach its limit”

“This this……”

Zhu Di was speechless, took a deep breath and gritted his teeth and said,”After I go back, I will study hard!”
