"Your Majesty," Fu Bi stood up with a sore waist and legs, but this time he couldn't help but walk forward again. No matter what, you are the emperor, not the rude Wang Ju, how could you smash the people who came to petition with a teacup in the Daqing Palace?

Wang Ju then walked out and came to Fu Bi and said, "Fu Gong, don't be anxious. Why is Your Majesty angry? You will know immediately.

As he said that, he moved the soft-hu bed and pressed Fu Bi to sit down.

Stop fighting for this tone, please sit down. Sima Guang said so much in one breath, and Fu Bi couldn't stand it anymore.

Fu Bi sat down helplessly, but still asked dissatisfiedly: "What do you know!"

Wang Ju signaled to Zhao Xu, and Zhao Xu also made a gesture to the eunuch behind him. The eunuch retreated. After a while, the guards brought many short benches.

This is not conventional.

Fan Chunren walked out and was about to speak, but Zhao Xu said, "You guys, because this court will be a bit long, it may not be over until the second and third updates, so I will break the following example."

Everyone was very puzzled.

At most, Sima Guang was impeached. Wang Ju refuted again. If he grows, he will grow until the second and third updates?

But when it is really time to update the second and thirds, who can stand like this and keep on standing?

So they sat down one by one.

However, everyone quickly discovered the accident, and the guards also brought a bench to let An Tao and the others sit down. No matter what, they were ministers of the Song Dynasty, but those petitioners should stand!

Everyone sat down and Wang Ju said, "Your Majesty, everyone, Sima Guang just mentioned the Qi people, I will talk about this Qi people first."

According to Sima Guang's interpretation, that Qi people were too disgusting and too easily confusing.

Therefore, Wang Ju first said it.

"What is Qi, prime minister, equality, seems to be a bit like the emperor and the common people. If so, why did Taizu, Taizong and Zhao Pu propose Qi people? You should know that snakes are not headless and the country has no leadership, and this country will inevitably be in turmoil. But what is the problem?"

"Sima Guang, you have compiled historical books, starting from the division of Jin in the Three Kingdoms and down to the founding of our dynasty. It also tells the rise and fall of many dynasties. Why the rise and fall seems to be many reasons, such as the autocracy of foreign relatives, the eunuchs interfering in politics, the monarchs are incompetent, and the military generals are illegal, but they are not the real reason for the destruction of the Qin, Han, Sui and Tang dynasties. Of course, these are very important. It is precisely because of these reasons that the country's politics is unclear. Coupled with the population and other factors, the tyrants are serious annexation. The people cannot survive and rise up. Qin is destroyed by the people's chaos, the Han is destroyed by the people's chaos, the Sui is destroyed by the people's chaos, and the Tang is destroyed by the people's chaos. This is the real reason for the destruction of several dynasties. Why are the people's chaos and annexation!"

"So my ancestors proposed that the people, including the formulaters, would be paid more taxes and even to bear strong labor. The poorer the less taxes they paid, and even to have no strong labor. There were also various pit mines, which were mostly borne by the rich people from all over the country at first."

This system is really a mess.

The Tang Dynasty used criminals to mine, but many people thought it was unkind, such as some criminals who could be transformed by light crimes. However, because they went down the mine, they were criminals and the clerks were illegal, which led to the criminals' death from exhaustion in the mine.

Therefore, in the early Song Dynasty, a system was formulated, which was to hand it over to these rich people for contracting, but not the current contracting of the Fangchang Hedu system, but forcibly contracting. For example, this iron pit can only produce 10,000 kilograms of iron a year, but after being handed over to the rich, 15,000 kilograms of iron must be paid to the court every year. As for the cost, no matter what cost you are, as for the output cannot keep up, buy 5,000 kilograms of iron out of your own pocket and hand it over!

In fact, these systems are intentionally suppressing wealthy landlords and businessmen and alleviating the gap between the rich and the poor.

Including the imperial examinations and large-scale imperial examinations, the children of high-ranking officials and nobles are not even allowed to participate in the imperial examinations. Then the children of poor families will flock to the officialdom and introduce new ones, and the country will not have a serious monopoly.

Of course, the system is one thing, and implementation is another.

"Actually, these are also considered to be Qi people. Everyone, some of you have seen or heard of the twenty cadre rules on the other side. It is also a Qi people. Its purpose is the same, reducing the illegality of annexation and the powerful, and giving the lower-level people a little vitality. As long as you can survive, that people are willing to rise up? The country can be governed for a long time."

"But my ancestors are like this, have you achieved true harmony? In fact, the other side cannot achieve true harmony. I only use two metaphors: one is the career of officialdom and the other is business. The other side still proposes the system of adjustment and investigation, but it has begun to promote the layer-level investigation system. Villages and towns are elected by the people to be re-elected. After re-election, they can still be recognized by the people and promoted. When they reach the city level, they are already very far away from the people, so they can only adopt the elite appointment system. However, after two levels of investigation in villages and towns, and they are recognized by the majority of the people, at least at this time, all cadres are beginning to be good in nature. Your Majesty, do you know what the difference is? In fact, just like our dynasty, our dynasty has a three-level imperial examination system, and we can choose one place to get a Jinshi and then conduct a survey. Because the other side cannot perform the imperial examination, they directly go from the village level administrative investigation."

"There is no imperial examination on the other side, and there is no grace. But if your children want to enter the official career, they must start from a certain village. So what are the benefits of the village chief? They exempt their family land taxes and taxes, and there is an additional ten-yuan subsidy every year. However, if the cadres and children want to serve as village chiefs, they only have more than ten-yuan subsidies a year, which means that they have to bring some money from more families to maintain their lives. And they are also village chiefs, they are airborne and have no familiarity with the villagers. So is it too harsh?"

"The wrong is not harsh. If you really want to enter the official career and want to be a good cadre, then let go of your body and get along with the villagers, and achieve political achievements. How many people can pay attention to the political achievements of an ordinary village chief? But how many people pay attention to the son of a mayor is the village chief? The reason why he does this is to eliminate the children of cadres who think that being an official is to seek wealth and prosperity, and identify the people who really want to be a good cadre and make reuse. This is just the beginning. Once you reach the town level, these people stay by their fathers in their youth, and their understanding of officialdom and official affairs, as well as their father's popularity, will have a greater help to them. Then, for both town-level cadres, these cadres' children will stand out faster. Therefore, the so-called Qi people are not the real Qi people."

"Let's talk about traders. Let me give you another example. If my son grows up and stays by my side now, knows that I want to launch a banking department, and he wants to traders to gain wealth. Then from now on, he can plan with this news. First, arrange the address of the brick kiln in advance, and second, use my house to prepare for loans. When the banking department was just built, others were still curious, he began to mortgage the loan with the house and prepare for the construction of the brick kiln. If the ability is greater, plus he is me

The children, officials from all over the country, can also make some care and make profits quickly. If they can make profits, they can also use this brick kiln to borrow new funds. So as long as they operate properly, within a year, they can only use the loan from this house to build hundreds of brick kilns, which may be just a mortgage for a house. It will allow him to make a profit of hundreds of thousands of yuan in one year. However, what about ordinary businessmen? They have only started to imitate. So they seem to be equal, but where do they actually come from equal?"

Hearing this, many smart and well-informed officials' eyes lit up together.

This method is good...

Of course, they would not let their children do business directly, but their families have affairs, economic people, and tooth officials.

"When it comes to the commercial tax, even if the commercial tax will be in the future, it is only theoretically the same. If the same commercial goods are commercial goods of ordinary people, the clerks may overestimate it. I believe that the slightly overestimate it, and these merchants cannot sue it. However, if the commercial goods of high-ranking officials and nobles, the clerks can only levy tax at half price. Can they be equal?"

"Sima Gong, what I mentioned is just such a Qi person, and it is not even as strict as the other side. Is this wrong? I don't know where you said that the scholar-officials and the military servants are in line with each other, parents are in line with each other, and the emperor and the common people are in line with each other? Could it be that if you don't let you come out for activities these days, you have serious random thoughts?"

Some officials couldn't help laughing.

Wang Ju gave them a blank look.

This is not a joke. If Sima Guang's words were passed on and everyone believed it to be true, it would be very, very bad!

But Zhao Xu was thinking deeply.

This is a good system for official registration. The court uses grace and honor, and the other is the imperial examination. However, the end of grace and honor is that the quality is different, and the number of grace is more than that of good. As for the imperial examination, don’t take it seriously. If you read the good scriptures seriously, you will be a good official? Look at these old guys, who is not familiar with the meaning of the scriptures, but...

But I feel confused when I think about it again.

Not only is this confused, there are really many good things on the other side, but it is not possible to be on the other side, but it is not possible to be on the Song Dynasty.

Is there really serious problems with the Song Dynasty system?

In fact, this system is an unprecedented mixed system. In fact, the so-called elections at the upper level are really a joke. For example, A San and Wanwan are the more they choose, the more chaotic they become.

Therefore, Wang Ju mixed the feudal centralization, the semi-centralization of the Celestial Empire, and democratic decentralization and elections together. However, in his memory, the Celestial Empire seemed to be advancing in this direction in his previous life.

What exactly is that it takes time to test, and even if he dies, it is not tested well.

But no matter what, it is better than the current system of the Song Dynasty.

"As for Duke Wen's mistakenly or intentionally killing Zhang Mu, it's right. Duke Wen and Duke Fu are the only three remaining prime ministers of the court and the giants of the Song Dynasty. If Zhang Mu was an ordinary businessman, then it would be fine, and it would not be worthy of my busy government affairs and deliberately rode a horse to Mizhou to comfort him. But is Zhang Mu really an ordinary businessman?"

"In the seventh year of Xining, the maritime merchants donated millions of stones of grain and saved how many people they had saved. But you all know, these grains were not transformed. Some were from the other side thousands of miles away, and some bought them from Chameng from Jiaozhi and Guangdong and Guangxi at a high price. At that time, there were not many ships on the other side, and the economy was also very tense. This is the beginning. You guys, I destroyed Jiaozhi, pacified Dali, and surrendered to Chameng. The court provided five million pieces of small silk, and the rest was only fiscal revenue from Guangdong and Guangxi, but how much fiscal revenue could Guangdong and Guangxi have. Others

Not to mention, I have incorporated more than 100,000 troops in the south, wanting to support so many soldiers, as well as rewards and pensions, as well as the costs of their respective armor and war horses. Can this amount of money be able to come? Where did the remaining money come from? The merchants on the other side have supported more than 20 million yuan of silk and merchant goods, so that I can maintain a huge war cost. Therefore, the country has not been tight for one country and the people have not added any additional burden. Not only that, Zhang Zhifu was in Dali, and they took out nearly 8 million yuan of silk and merchant goods to support it."

"But why I dare not mention this matter? I am really afraid. If the propaganda is coming out, there will definitely be someone who will make an article, from Guangdong and Guangxi to Dali to Jiaozhi, such a large territory, more than 10 million people, 100,000 elite soldiers, and strong support from the other side's finances. Someone will definitely say in front of His Majesty, it's not good, another An Lushan."

Zhao Xu sighed.

What Wang Ju meant was that he was fighting hard in front of him, but the court was pulling his back.

In fact, this is what Wang Ju said intentionally. I will not rebel in the south, and after I arrive in Shaanxi, I will not rebel.

Otherwise, if someone makes a fuss and Zhao Xu becomes suspicious again, it will be difficult to deal with.

Of course, now that Wang Juzheng has made it openly, it is hard for everyone to make a fuss.

"And if we remove the 300,000 taels of gold in the past two years, in these six years, the other side of the sea merchants promised to donate three million taels of gold and twenty million taels of silver to the court. Even if it is Xinguan, it will reach more than 140 million taels of gold. Think about how much tax income our dynasty has in a year now!"

"Don't worry, as the other side grows over the years, the deductions and incense obtained by the Maritime Warehouse from the other side have gradually approached 7 million yuan each year. Think about how much net profit can a year be made by the Kapok Warehouse and the Salt Warehouse mobilized the knots and salt?

"Fugong, Renzong, the late emperor and His Majesty, are very kind to you, but over the years, how many droughts, locust plagues, floods, and military disasters have occurred. You and Wang Gongchen built a manor and mansion in Luoyang, which is even more beautiful than the palace, but how much money has been spent to provide relief to the disaster victims?"

"Sima Gong, I always heard that you live a frugal life and Fan Youcheng lives a frugal life, so he disagrees with me. I have always respected him very much. Why is it not that the court paid a low salary, but that Fan Youcheng used more of these salary to help the tribe, or the related poor people. So although the court paid a lot, Fan Youcheng could only live a simple life and could not even bear to eat meat. Today, when the literati and officials are becoming more and more luxurious, can I not be respected by such a simple and honest official? But Sima Guang, you are different. I remember that when I was a teenager, I couldn't survive even if I could be killed, and then I was so helpless. During those days, whenever I hunted a little meat with my second uncle, I used it and soybeans to simmer in a clay pot because salt was expensive, and I couldn't bear to put salt. But that's it, my second sister and third brother couldn't help but drool after smelling the fragrance."

In fact, Wang Ju continues to use means here.

No card is more tragic than card!

Among the officials here, there are also a few who have a very low starting point, but no matter how low it is, it is not as low as Wang Ju.

"So I had no choice but to come up with Taoxi sword and Xueyan. However, the power of merchants in Yanzhou is limited. After the promotion of Xueyan, many noble families' managers and nephews asked to join, including your Sima family. One day, one person found a merchant in Yanzhou and said, "My uncle is Sima Junshi, what else can Yanzhou merchants say? Join. What is the name Sima... In those years, about 3,000 guan of profit was divided, and his efforts were a little capital, and your name Sima Junshi. Although you live a frugal life, your Sima family is not frugal, with millions of qians of property and thousands of hectares of fertile land. With your prestige in the Sima family, have you ever called them to donate?"

"Your Majesty, I'm a little confused. Sima Gong and the others repeatedly say that the country should be virtuous and cannot be tempted by profit. Is the morality in Sima Gong and the others' eyes different from the morality in the eyes of me?"

Sima Fengqi was crazy.

In fact, Wang Ju said that it was equivalent to telling the reasons why Sima Guang and others opposed the reform and the Banking Department.

The reason why these people oppose is not only the disadvantages, but also the concern that it will harm the interests of the powerful and the powerful. Because they are the powerful and the winners of the interests!

In fact, Wang Ju was speechless. His banking department was not a local tyrant.

Although the Qigong Taxation will force some powerful people to pay commercial taxes, once the economic environment of the Song Dynasty improves, the benefits of these powerful people will be greater.

This is really hard to explain.

However, Sima Guang did not speak because he noticed that he invited them to Daqing Hall this time, and brought them to the bench for the ministers to sit and watch. The emperor smashed Feng Ji with tea cups, and the letters in the table cabinet beside the dragon chaise... were by no means reasonable arrangements.

If you can't figure out today's court battle, it's a Hongmen Banquet! (To be continued.)
