Chapter 304: What should Liu Daizi do with you when he Kaihai
"Liangzhou is located in a deserted state, and its population has now increased to 500,000, of which only 60,000 Han people, and most of the rest are mountain barbarians and Yue people. The population has increased significantly, but the land is not large. If this continues, there will be chaos.

Lianzhou is close to Annan, which is the great front of the imperial court to curb Annan. If Lianzhou is in chaos, Guangxi will be in chaos and the imperial court should not be despised. I beg Your Majesty to build roads and allocate silver and money to connect Lianzhou. In this way, if the imperial court wants to use troops to Annan and other countries,
It can guarantee the food route and allow the imperial army to travel at any time. In normal times, it can also be used as a channel for commerce, so that the people of Lianzhou will no longer be obsessed with reclaiming farming, and at least one more career."
Road construction...
Everyone couldn't help but be stunned.
This guy Liu Chengfeng really thought that there is a need to build roads in the mountains like Lianzhou? It’s a joke.
As soon as Liu Chengfeng finished speaking, the Minister of Revenue immediately sneered and said coldly: "Dare you ask Liu Qianhu, how much money does the imperial court need to build a road to Lianzhou?"
Liu Chengfeng's face did not change and said lightly: "From Jiangnan to Lianzhou, you need three million silver patterns..."
Three million...
The court was in an uproar. What is the number of three million? This is simply a joke. The annual income of the Ming Dynasty last year was only 2.8 million. Is this guy crazy? I took the annual income of the imperial court to give him Lianzhou.
Building roads is simply a joke.
Liu Chengfeng continued: "Three million taels of silver are built to avoid disturbing the people. The workers recruited are not treated as corvee as before, but are given wages so that they can support their families while working.
The Hou didn't say that the three million taels would have to be paid by the court. As long as the court agreed, the Ministry of Revenue would only allocate 500,000 silver. The remaining funds would be raised by this Hou. What's more, a road can be strengthened directly from Nantongzhou to Lianzhou.
The imperial court's control over prefectures and counties on both sides of the road can also increase the population convenience of Jiangnan to Lianzhou and promote commerce, which can be said to have three goals in one fell swoop!"
Many people couldn't help but whisper, two million and five million taels of silver, Liu Chengfeng actually said that he could raise money. It was such a big tone. What could increase the control of the court? What would promote commerce? What would increase convenience? It was even more joking!
I have never built any roads for so many years. Did the court lose the control of the prefectures and counties in the lower prefectures and counties? Is it inconvenient for the people?
The biggest question is, what kind of abacus is this guy playing?
Someone couldn't help but look up at Zhu Youzhang on Dan. Zhu Youzhang's face could not be seen very clearly. He only saw him sitting upright on the imperial chair without moving, looking at a scrupulous look.
Xie Qian finally couldn't help but stand up and scolded: "Liu Chengfeng, what's your intention? What kind of transportation is there? Is there anything in Lianzhou? Do you still have to go to merchants to go to? As for
It is even more a joke that the court used troops to Annan and other countries. Annan and other countries are vassal states of the Ming Dynasty. Why did the court use troops to them?"
Liu Chengfeng was not in a hurry to discuss the issue of traffic, but talked about Annan first. The reason for his refutation was very simple. He glanced at Xie Qian lightly and said with a smile: "Sir Xie's words are wrong, and he was writing that year.
When he was the emperor, Annan was also a vassal state of our Ming Dynasty, but why did Emperor Wen use troops to Annan?”
Liu Chengfeng paused for a moment before continuing: "This is because someone rebelled in Annan and the Ming Dynasty suppressed the rebellion for him."
Liu Chengfeng smiled and said, "That's it. Whether it is to use troops or help them to suppress the rebellion, the function of this road is the same. It requires a large amount of supplies to be transported for the three armies to go there."
Xie Qian was speechless. He was always eloquent, but this eloquent is mostly an academic dispute. When he met Liu Chengfeng, he was a little exhausted when he was stubborn. And it was obvious that Liu
Chengfeng was well prepared this time, how could he catch any handle?
"As for the existence of transportation, it is not about letting Lianzhou and the capital and what business to do in Jiangnan. Lianzhou is just a trade turnover, so that the world's goods can be stored here, and then scattered to various countries by land and sea. This is whether there is transportation,
Mr. Liu has issued a maritime order in Lianzhou. Now Lianzhou is measuring, building ports, and manufacturing ships..."
The entire hall suddenly became chaotic. In order to forbid the sea, they fought with the emperor to the death. Who knew that this guy was silent and was already preparing to open the sea in Lianzhou.
Crazy, it's simply crazy. Who gave him such courage to be a Jinyiwei Qianhu? It's simply outrageous! If so, what's the difference between forbidden sea and opening sea?
"Liu Chengfeng, you are so brave!" At this time, even the Minister of War Liu Daxia could not help it. In fact, among the six ministries of the court, Liu Daxia had the weakest opposition to the ban on the sea. He has always been
Everyone looked at this matter with a fair attitude. He even wondered, if the emperor opened the sea, should the court start to build a fleet in case of emergencies? But he never thought that under the unanimous opposition of all civil and military officials,
Even the emperor has shown weakness. Now Liu Chengfeng is still opening the sea without authorization? It's really a bit ruthless.
Liu Chengfeng glanced at Liu Daxia and said lightly: "Dare you ask Shangshu Liu, where is the courageous person? As a minister, he has been following the rules and following the steps. Why did he become a bold person in the mouth of Shangshu?
?”
Liu Daxia said: "You are just a vassal marquis. How can you open a sea without permission without the court? Is this your following the rules?"
When asked about this, Liu Chengfeng laughed even more and said, "Shangshu was wrong. When Emperor Taizu formulated the laws of his ancestors, he once said that all vassal states can act cheaply, and military and political affairs can be decided.
.Kaihai is the internal affairs of Lianzhou. Mr. Liu acts according to the ancestral law, and what does it have to do with the court? What? Is the Secretary of the Shang Dynasty going to violate the ancestral law and come to investigate the affairs of the vassal states? Liu Chengfeng wants to ask, is it Liu?
He is brave enough to ride the wind, but Master Shangshu is unruly and dares to ignore the ancestral system!"
Liu Daxia was dizzy. The circle was too big to make him unable to turn around for a while.
The ancestral law... There is indeed such a thing. When Emperor Taizu was there, he divided the children of the Zhu family into various places and established a vassal state. Zhu Yuanzhang obviously believed that as long as the children of the Zhu family were scattered everywhere, the Ming Dynasty could be the world.
Consolidation. Because Zhu Yuanzhang gave the vassal kings great power, and they all grasped military, political and civil affairs, so that each vassal state formed its own system, which led to the Jingnan Campaign, and the vassal states could actually directly confront the imperial court.
However, after the Jingnan Campaign, the rights of the vassal states were greatly curbed. Although the court did not have explicit regulations, this has become an unspoken rule. According to the unspoken rules, if the vassal states want to open the sea, the court must agree.
Yes, but according to the ancestral system, Liu Chengfeng himself could decide on the political affairs of Lianzhou and did not have to ask the court for instructions.
It depends on whether Liu Chengfeng is under the guise of unspoken rules or ancestral system.
The biggest key to the problem is that in order to get Zhu Youzhang to cancel the idea of ​​opening the sea, the officials of the court moved out of the ancestor's system to force the palace. Now they can't overturn the ancestral system again and force Liu Chengfeng to surrender.
Everyone was stunned and suddenly fell into a dilemma.
Someone suddenly thought about why the emperor suddenly changed his attitude just now. Isn’t this clearly laying the foundation for Liu Chengfeng’s next actions?
...I was fooled!
The ministers were angry, but no matter how angry they wanted to refute, they had no idea.
Finally, a censor stood up and shouted angrily to Liu Chengfeng: "Liu Chengfeng, you don't ask the court for such a big matter in the sea. What is your intention? Is it to rebel?"
Although this sentence sounds loud, there are flaws everywhere in the words. Liu Chengfeng smiled slightly and retorted: "Why did you say this? The ancestral law does not explicitly prohibit the vassal marquis from opening the sea, nor does he say it.
I must ask the court for instructions, what? The adults are so slandering, Liu Chengfeng wants to ask, what is your intention? Who gave you the benefits that made you crazy and dared to violate the ancestral system. I shouted to this marquis here
?Do you know what the crime is slandering the vassal marquis?”
If these words were not as good as the guise of the ancestral system of civil and military officials before, they would be a bit too much. However, the banner of the ancestral system was made by the officials of the court themselves. Now if you want to repent, you may not have time to do so.
It's right.
Aren’t you going to talk about the ancestral system? Then let’s study the ancestral system with you and see what you have to say!
Although the civil and military officials in the palace were all angry, and Liu Chengfeng suddenly became the target of public criticism, no one spoke for a while. Of course, they knew that Liu Chengfeng's use of the problem was almost impeccable. Lianzhou opened the sea, even if
Oppose, what should we oppose?
Liu Chengfeng bowed to Zhu Youzhang on the Dan Palace and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the opening of Lianzhou has nothing to do with the court. What the court asked was the question of building roads. Did the court allocate silver?
, I also want to ask Your Majesty to decide."
Zhu Youting sat on the imperial chair and saw the civil and military officials at the bottom of his head, and couldn't help but feel happy, especially when he thought that just a few days ago, these people were passionate about what the law of ancestors could not be said.
If you are deposed, the country will be overthrown and the world will be uneasy. Now, these words are like slapping them hard, carrying a huge stone that has been pounded, but they have hit their own feet.
Zhu Youzhang deliberately kept his face tight and tried his best not to lose his composure. After a long time, he breathed a sigh of relief and said: "What Liu Aiqing said is not without a road. Since Liu Aiqing is willing to take out 2.5 million taels of silver to build the road,
There is no reason why the court refused to agree. This matter is correct!"
