Fang Xiaoru, Huang Zicheng and Qitai left.

Lu's tense expression relaxed, with a sneer on his face, and whispered to himself:"Zhu Yunxi, I really admire your courage, you dare to touch the interests of the gentry, just wait, you will know this soon What a stupid thing to do."

Gentlemen, this is a very special group.

If you look forward, you can benchmark yourself against aristocratic families. but.

Compared with aristocratic families and aristocratic families, the gentry included a wider range of people. Not only did officials belong to this group, but even scholars with a good reputation also belonged to this group.

In other words, anyone who is a scholar is a potential member of this group.

Officials are gentry.

Future officials are also gentry.

To govern the country, officials of all sizes are needed.

As long as you think about it for a moment, you can understand how terrible the gentry is as a group and how difficult it is to abolish the gentry's non-payment of taxes and grain.

No one is willing to give up the benefits they have gained.

This point remains unchanged.

Zhu Yunxi has 100,000 elite soldiers and horses under his command, which is very powerful, but this does not mean thatZhu Yunxi was able to make enemies of the gentry all over the world.

It is not just force that determines victory or defeat, but also many other factors.

For example, Zhu Yunxi.

Do we need the assistance of officials to govern the country? no doubt. need!

Going forward, if there is no one to support him, can he sit on the throne?

Hard to say.

Judging from historical results, there is a high probability that you will not be able to sit on it.

As the saying goes: Those who gain the right will get many help, while those who lose the right will get little help.

What a foolish act to use your own power to fight against the entire ruling class.

In Lu's opinion.

The gentry class is powerful and invincible.

If Zhu Yunxi rashly pursues the interests of the gentry, he will be crushed to pieces and is doomed to fail....

Duke of Wei's Mansion!

After Xu Huizu came down from the court, he did not follow the ministers to see Zhu Yuanzhang, but went straight back to the mansion.

"master!"

"master!"

In the yard, the servants were busy.

When they saw Xu Huizu, they all bent down and saluted.

Xu Huizu frowned and said to a servant:"Go, tell the eldest sister, let her go to the study to find me, and tell her that I am very important. I need to talk to her about"

"Yes, sir!"

The servant nodded and trotted away.

"The emperor's grandson actually wanted to abolish the preferential treatment of the gentry who did not pay grain or taxes. What on earth did he want to do?"

With doubts in his mind, Xu Huizu walked towards the study.

After learning that Zhu Yunxi wanted to abolish the preferential treatment of the gentry not paying taxes or paying grain, he was shocked.

Although he is usually careless and seems heartless, But this does not mean that he is stupid.

As soon as he thought about the abolition of the gentry's non-payment of food and taxes, he felt a numbness in his scalp, and his intuition told him that something big was going to happen.

Not long after,

Xu Miaoyun came to the study, full of excitement. He looked at Xu Huizu with a puzzled face and asked:"Huizu, what happened?"

Due to some special reasons, she has not married and has been staying at home.

Xu Huizu knows his eldest sister's abilities. Therefore, when something happens, he will talk to Xu Miaoyun and ask for her opinion.

"Sister, something big happened"

"The emperor's grandson is supervising the country and presiding over the government today. He wants to abolish the preferential treatment of the gentry who do not pay taxes and grain."

When Xu Huizu saw Xu Miaoyun coming in, he immediately came forward and said in a deep voice

"What?"

"The emperor's grandson is in charge of the country?"

Xu Miaoyun was shocked when she heard this, with a face full of astonishment.

Immediately, she realized that it seemed that the abolition of the gentry's failure to pay food and taxes was even more serious.

"Don't worry, what's going on?"

"Please tell me carefully."

Xu Miaoyun frowned and looked at Xu Huizu solemnly.

Xu Huizu took a deep breath and said slowly:"Today's court meeting, the emperor's grandson is sitting on the dragon chair...."

He told Xu Miaoyun everything that happened at the court meeting.

"this..."

"Zhu Yunxi, is he crazy?"

Xu Miaoyun was a little confused after listening to Xu Huizu's words.

She knew very well how terrible the gentry class in the Ming Dynasty was.

It can be said that the entire powerful class in the Ming Dynasty can be generally defined as gentry, including the Xu family. Inside.

What kind of crazy behavior is this to fight against the entire ruling class of Ming Dynasty by oneself?

"Sister, do you think His Majesty will depose Zhu Yunxi as the crown prince?"

Xu Huizu hesitated for a moment and asked.

"Destroy the grandson of Emperor Yunxi?"

Xu Miaoyun was stunned when he heard this.

The crown prince has just been canonized. Under normal circumstances, even if it is abolished, it will take several years. The inheritance of the throne is not a child's play. It is related to the foundation of a dynasty. It will not be done not long after the canonization. Just abolish that ridiculous behavior.

But the current situation is different.

The scope of the gentry's involvement is too large, and once it is turbulent, it will also affect the history of a dynasty.

In this case, will Zhu Yunxi and Xu Miaoyun be deposed? Know

"I don’t know what the emperor’s grandson is thinking."

"Isn’t it good to just supervise the country honestly? Why should we disturb the interests of the gentry?"

"I wonder if His Majesty will regret giving the Crown Prince the right to supervise the country after knowing this."

Xu Huizu shook his head repeatedly and said aloud.

He didn't know the others, but as a member of the gentry, he was quite resistant to Zhu Yunxi's desire to abolish the gentry's non-payment of taxes and food.

Although, he did not have any Lack of that little money

"call..."

Xu Miaoyun took a deep breath and said slowly:"I don't know what the emperor's grandson is thinking, but one thing can be seen. He is very courageous. This hurdle is difficult to pass, but if he can pass it, The rewards are also extremely generous"

"Courage is real"

"After all, how can ordinary people take the action of attacking the palace with force?"

"But eldest sister, the emperor's grandson is destined to get a bloody blow this time. There is no chance of success in going against the gentry."

"In my opinion, the emperor's grandson is just naive. He can successfully remonstrate with soldiers because His Majesty is soft-hearted, but those gentry cannot tolerate him."

Xu Huizu shook his head and smiled bitterly.

He was very unfavorable about the result of Zhu Yunxi abolishing the gentry's failure to pay taxes and grain.

A flash of curiosity flashed in Xu Miaoyun's eyes, and he whispered to himself:"You know you can't do it, but you do it. The emperor's grandson is really Is it floating, or is there some other source of confidence that we don’t know about?"
