Chapter 1615: The overall situation has been decided

If interest is exempted, the principal will still be paid.

This is equivalent to giving these gentry some preferential treatment.

Of course... these gentry still owed the money from Xishan Money House, but at least... they could breathe a sigh of relief.

This is naturally grace.

But Emperor Hongzhi asked them to replace the land in Luzon with land in the same acre of Jiangnan, which was unacceptable to the gentry.

That Zhou Tangsheng: "..."

He felt like he was about to faint.

Go… Go to Luzon?

Oh my God, my ancestors are all here. Isn’t this equivalent to being exiled to the army?

But Fang Jifan looked at Zhou Tangsheng with a smile and said, "Congratulations, your Majesty is so generous, and I'm giving you a rain of grace. Why don't you thank me?"

Fang Jifan's words were like a bolt from the blue, causing Zhou Tangsheng's face to suddenly change.

He immediately understood what Fang Jifan meant.

This is grace, including exempting them from their loans, including allowing them to replace their land to Luzon. Grace is so, so what if there is no grace...?

Think deeper, if it is His Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Holy Ho

Zhou Tang trembled violently, but...

He cried and bowed to the ground and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty... All my ancestors and ancestors were born here and buried here. The ancestral temple is here. I really dare not move to the residence. I would like to ask Your Majesty..."

Emperor Hongzhi was calm and composed, and he gradually began to master the rhythm: "You can move all your ancestors to Luzon. If there is not enough manpower, I can help you."

When Zhou Tangsheng and other students heard this, they said in their hearts... Why do you want to dig our ancestral grave?

But the anger that flashed in my heart instantly disappeared.

Because they thought of the next question, so what if you dig your ancestral grave, even if it is to crush your bones and ashes?

His face was tragic. He didn't move today, and he didn't know what the consequences were... but... the emperor still didn't put them to death. After all, he left them a way out, at least he could go to Luzon. Although he didn't know what the situation was, at least... he still had fields and could still live!

If ordinary people suffer from undesirable disasters, they will go hungry and cannot survive, and will rebel.

But gentry is different. They have great family and great business. Why should they rebel?

At this time, Emperor Hongzhi said again: "The measurement of the fields of Luzon and the fields of Jiangnan should be strengthened. According to my opinion, I will send people to Luzon first, so that they can familiarize themselves with the environment first, otherwise they will know nothing, how to run their family business in the future? Naturally... the gentry has many families, and the navy must help them here. Fortunately, Luzon is not far away, and I don't think there will be any serious trouble. They can be safe and safe. This is the best."

Emperor Hongzhi showed a gentle look on his face.

He only seeks purpose.

As long as the purpose is achieved, Emperor Hongzhi has a gentle and kind nature, so it is natural that everything is easy to say.

He smiled faintly and continued: "The expenses along the way should be used by my treasury. It is not easy for them to move their families to come. They still need to issue an order. They are just a first-time arrival. After they arrived in Luzon, Xu Pengju, the general general of Luzon, needs to place them for good health. Luzon may not be peaceful, so they need to send additional staff and take care of them."

Although Emperor Hongzhi gave many instructions, Zhou Tangsheng and others were all in full swing at this moment.

Fang Jifan wrote down one by one and couldn't help but interrupt: "Your Majesty is kind and has unparalleled kindness. The gentlemen must be grateful to Your Majesty. Even if they go to Luzon in the future, they know that Your Majesty is worried about them."

Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said, "It's all my people. If you don't distinguish between each other, how can I favor one and the other? What's more, let them go to Luzon. First, this Luzon is indeed a rare land of fish and rice. Second, this is also for the century-old foundation of our Ming Dynasty. This is an act that benefits the country and the people. Oh, what's the yellow book of the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River?"

Fang Jifan cheered up: "Your Majesty, you said it was a coincidence that my son happened to carry it with you."

Zhou Tangsheng: "..."

Zhou Tangsheng Ben also felt that he should struggle hard at this time, at least he should cry and explain the pros and cons, or beg for mercy, and he should fight for it again.

But when you heard this sentence, you said by chance that he had read the book, and then he realized that everything was over.

This decision...has been planned long ago.

Fang Jifan gave a wink at the person behind him. The man understood. Soon, he came with a pile of yellow books.

This yellow book is the government's bookmaking situation for the gentry and the people. To put it bluntly, it is equivalent to a household registration.

Such a large stack of yellow books were sent to Emperor Hongzhi.

But the paper is new.

It is obvious that this is not like a pile of old papers piled up in local yamen. This is a yellow book that was re-invested.

But Emperor Hongzhi looked at Zhou Tangsheng: "What's your name?"

Zhou Tangsheng stammered: "Xiaomin Zhou Tangsheng..."

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Fang Jifan: "Does Zhou Tangsheng... have it?"

Fang Jifan said with bright eyes: "This is really a great fortune. If you say it, I don't believe it. I really remember someone named Zhou Tangsheng. Your Majesty... I look for it..."

He quickly turned out a small stack of yellow books according to Zhou's first pronunciation. Soon, he turned out a large piece of paper, which was densely packed in... and handed it to Emperor Hongzhi. Emperor Hongzhi opened it and said slowly: "The Zhou family of Xuancheng County, Ningguo Prefecture, Nanzhili, has been an official for generations, a scholarly family, and is behind the Song doctor Zhou Yan... There are 79 people under the household, 210 and 7 mouths..."

Zhou Tangsheng was trembling when he heard this, and the other gentry were even more frightened.

This gen represents the number of labor service, generally refers to adult men, and the genus represents the specific population of the family.

Because Zhou Tangsheng is a big family, he has no family separation and has a large population. Among the yellow book, the Zhou family is only one household. Now... the family of old and young seem to be clearly counted.

When is the count? How is it counted?

It would be fine if I didn't listen. After hearing this, Zhou Tangsheng felt frightened.

He was frightened and shivered, but he heard Emperor Hongzhi continue to recite how many pigs, cows, and how many acres of mansions there were, and how many fame and fortune had appeared in his family... clearly... clearly.

After Emperor Hongzhi finished reading it, he couldn't help but look at Fang Jifan with praise. To be honest, Fang Jifan was always lazy in other things, but he was very motivated in such matters. Of course, the Cabinet Statistics Department also made great contributions.

Emperor Hongzhi put down the yellow book of the Zhou family, looked up at Zhou Tangsheng and said, "Zhou Qing family, this is not wrong. If there is any mistake, you can criticize it."

For the first time, Emperor Hongzhi no longer called him, but changed to the family.

But Zhou Tangsheng didn't feel comfortable at all. Instead, he was so scared that he crawled on the ground and said tremblingly: "No... nothing wrong, there is no cow."

All the other gentry were shocked. They looked at the stacks of yellow books on the desk in uneasy... I think... Zhou Tangsheng must be indispensable.

Emperor Hongzhi said: "It's good. Moving according to the Huang Book, what do you think of? Is there anything else to say?"

Zhou Tangsheng's face turned pale and tried hard to squeeze out a sentence from his teeth: "No...no, my emperor's wiseness..."

Emperor Hongzhi naturally saw the complex look in Zhou Tangsheng's eyes, but he smiled and said, "After all, you are my people. You don't have to worry about going to Luzon."

A group of gentry and scholars, under the comfort of Emperor Hongzhi, surrendered one after another.

Many people feel weak when they come out.

Many people looked as if they had died. If they had encountered such injustice in the past, they would have to join together to discuss a few words. But like all the gentry, Zhou Tangsheng looked around vigilantly, but they had no intention of joining in the fun and discussing with others. Instead, they lowered their heads and did not dare to make a sound. Even walking became tiptoe and quickly disappeared into the crowd.

……………………

At this time, Emperor Hongzhi sat comfortably in the Duke of Wei's Mansion.

Several maids stepped forward and peeled the crabs for Emperor Hongzhi.

The best crabs are extremely plump and are all freshly produced in the steamer. At the bottom is a small plate of ginger vinegar, and a plate of mung beans smoked with chrysanthemum leaves and osmanthus stamens.

Just like homely food, it made Emperor Hongzhi's index finger tremble.

When he saw the maid peeling crab meat, he said, "I'm here in person, you don't have to serve you."

The maids were also nervous and hurriedly left.

Fang Jifan sat opposite him and had already shaken his crab legs happily. He didn't eat anything, biting the shell, ate the crab meat, and then spitting out the shell.

Emperor Hongzhi learned from the appearance of a maid just now, but he was so gentle and polite.

The most delicious crabs in Jiangnan are the crab roe. Emperor Hongzhi thought that although it was light, it had a different taste.

Soon, Zhu took the silver pot with a trembling trembling, and the wine could be smelled from afar. Zhu said, "Your Majesty, you must drink wine when you eat crabs. The mansion once brewed some daughters' reds. I have warmed them up. Your Majesty can taste it."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded, held a yellow crab in his hand, and ate the crab roe, and immediately became happy: "Shangshenjian deserves punishment. So many delicacies in the mountains and seas are not as good as a crab."

As he said that, Emperor Hongzhi said to Zhu: "I take care of myself, you don't have to serve me."

Zhu bowed, but laughed. Fang Jifan always felt that Zhu was very powerful. The ancients' skill of flattering and playing games was really profound and profound. The old lady who never left home was a great time to be a big fan, but she could still study this. This shows that the wisdom of the ancients should not be underestimated.

Emperor Hongzhi ate the crab roe in the crab shell and then showed his majesty: "Jifan, will these gentry be filled with righteous indignation and want to plot against evil."

This is exactly what Emperor Hongzhi was worried about.

"Your Majesty..." Fang Jifan said: "Your Majesty, my sons should use their heads to guarantee it, and they definitely dare not."
