"Let me go! Do you know who I am?! Who gave you the power to arrest me! I am a son of the Duke of Cheng who has not been out of the fifth server!"

"Be honest! I am still the emperor who chooses the forward!"

On the sixth day of the second month of the first year of Tianqi, Zunhua Wei...

Amidst the scoldings of a fat-minded military attache, Zunhua Guard... No! It should be said that the entire Shuntian Mansion and Yongping Mansion were showing officers at all levels being escorted out of their bedrooms to command the Envoy Mansion and Qianhu Mansion.

The scene of hundreds of households being rummaged through pornographic albums and fish scale atlases.

Zhu Youjian still overestimated the guards officers in these two places. They had almost no defense, and the men and horses of the Royal Horse Supervisor broke into the guards and the city.

The Royal Horse Supervisors, holding the imperial edict high, hardly encountered any situation that could stop them, and easily obtained the yellow albums and fish scale albums from the command offices at all levels and the Qianhu Station and Baihu Station.

Standing in the courtyard of the Zunhua Guard Commander's Mansion, Man Gui clasped his hands behind his back, listening to the cries and curses coming from his ears, not nervous at all.

Once upon a time, he Mangui was just a garrison in Huangtuling who was squeezed out by the Liao soldiers.

But in less than half a year, he has now become a staff general and has the power to command tens of thousands of troops.

All of this was given by that person, and what he had to do was to repay the kindness to that person...

"General, found it!"

At this time, a Qianhu walked into the courtyard from the study room carrying a dozen thick books.

Two soldiers brought chairs and a table, and Qianhu placed the documents on the table. Then a Confucian scholar in uniform sat at the table and began to read the documents.

Not only him, but also several scribes in the army sat down and started reading.

They recorded the data they reviewed, and this took a very long time.

A quarter of an hour, two quarters of an hour, three quarters of an hour... a full hour later, they finished sorting it out.

The Confucian scholar stood up, bowed to Mangui and said:

"General, according to the records in the Yellow Book, in the third year of Yongle's reign in Zunhua, there were 280,000 acres of military farmland, and in the 12th year of Wanli, there were 326,400 acres of military farmland."

"In the third year of Yongle, there were 5,600 military households, 740 civilian households, and a population of 31,700."

"In the twelfth year of Wanli, there were 5,600 military households, 4,632 civilian households, and a population of 51,160."

"Right now, there are 7,400 shi of army grain in the granary, and 1,323 liang and 4.3 cents in the bank."

The Confucian scholar finished his report, but at this moment someone suddenly shouted:

"That's not a granary or a bank, that's my private money!"

Mangui looked sideways, and it turned out that he was kidnapped and claimed to be the commander of the Zunhua Guard who had not yet entered the fifth service of the Duke of Chengguo.

"Private money? As soon as you commanded the envoy, you put your private money in the treasury of the Commander-in-Chief of the Guard's Palace? This is obviously the money and food of the Zunhua Guard, what does it have to do with you?"

After that, Mangui said to the soldiers:

"Take him down, send his family to the capital, and hand them over to Duke Chengguo."

"Yes!" After receiving the order, the two soldiers immediately blocked the man's mouth, and then led his family out of the Guard Commander's Mansion.

As for Mangui, he said to Qianhu:

"This is already the twelfth year of Wanli's reign. I guess they themselves don't even know how many troops are currently stationed in Zunhua Guard."

"Get ready to measure the acres, we only have one month."

"I accept your order!" Qianhu bowed, and then walked out of the commander's office with his instructor.

Scenes like this kept happening in Shuntian and Yongping. At the same time, the officials at the center of power in the Ming Dynasty also learned about what happened in Shuntian and Yongping a few days later.

However, for civil servants, the military settlement is the governor's office of the fifth army, that is, it is a matter of nobles and nobles. What does it have to do with them?

On the contrary, with the abolition of military farms, the Ministry of Household Affairs could not only receive taxes from the Royal Horse Supervisor, but also fill the national treasury.

Once the treasury is full, then there will be reasons and conditions to propose to the emperor to reduce or exempt land taxes and exempt Liao pay.

For them, there is no better news than this.

However, they are not without things to worry about. Right now, the only thing they are worried about is Ji Zhen being replaced.

But soon, Zhu Youxiao used another method to attract attention to this matter.

"Long live, Chen Dongge University Scholar Sun Ruyou resigns!"

On the ninth day of February, at the Wenhua Hall, as Sun Ruyou stood up to resign, everyone felt scornful in their hearts.

Sun Ruyou has applied for resignation thirteen times in a row, but not once has he been accepted.

Everyone thought that maybe this time it would be the same as the previous ones.

However, this time Zhu Youxiao, who was sitting on the dragon throne, said:

"I have approved the resignations of Fang Gechen and Sun Gechen. In addition, I have also approved the memorial submitted by Fang Gechen to activate Master Ye."

"Liu Gechen..."

When Zhu Youxiao said something, everyone was stunned for a moment, including Liu Yishen who was shouted at by him, and then stood up and said:

"I'm here..."

"I conferred the title of Minister Fang as the Prince's Shaobao, and the Minister of the Sun as the Prince's Young Master. They were also given a hundred taels of platinum, four pieces of colorful silk, and a red python sitting on the outside, and sent pedestrians to escort the two of them back home."

Zhu Youxiao approved the words of Fang Congzhe and Sun Ruyou without any discussion, and even prepared titles and rewards.

The last time someone was treated like this was Ye Xianggao, who is now retiring at home.

However, Ye Xianggao's good days are gone, Zhu Youxiao continued:

"Reinstate Ye Xianggao as the Grand Bachelor of Zhongji Palace, lead the cabinet, and order him to return to Beijing immediately!"

"Thank you, sir..." Sun Ruyou didn't want his return home to be interrupted, so he quickly set an example and thanked him.

After he thanked him, officials from Zhejiang Xuan Kun Qi Chu and other five parties sang long live, as if Zhu Youxiao had made such an incredible decision.

At this time, Liu Yishen and the others also felt that things were not that bad if Ye Xianggao joined the cabinet.

Liu Yishen and others claimed to be members of the Qing Dynasty, and they still wanted the Ming Dynasty to move to a good side, so they were not discouraged by not being able to serve as the chief minister of the cabinet, but were happy instead.

However, Gao Panlong and others felt uncomfortable. Dong Lin was in charge of this year's Beijing Inspection, but he didn't expect Zhu Youxiao to announce that the Beijing Inspection would be postponed to June after returning from his visit to Yanshan Camp.

Now that Ye Xianggao has been summoned to the cabinet, he obviously wants to make peace with him.

Gao Panlong and others wanted to kill the five parties of Qi, Chu, Zhejiang, Xuan and Kun, so when everyone was singing the salute, Gao Panlong stood up and said:

"Long live, now is the key to Beijing's inspection. How can we dismiss cabinet ministers at will?"

"Besides, the Jingchao is already customized, so why change it? Orders are changed day after day, how do all the officials deal with themselves?"

Gao Panlong asked three questions in a row, which immediately made everyone frown.

Liu Yishen and others frowned because they felt that Gao Panlong should not be so aggressive. It would be better to wait until after the court meeting to question Zhu Youxiao.

He was so aggressive, didn't he just beat Zhu Youxiao down the steps?

As for Sun Ruyou and others, they were angry in their hearts, thinking that Gao Panlong, an old man, was about to leave when he was about to leave, but he refused to let people leave well, and insisted on driving them all away.

With no other choice, Sun Ruyou and others looked at Zhu Youxiao...

"Let's break up the court..."

Unexpectedly, Zhu Youxiao didn't even bother to answer Gao Panlong's question. He simply left a sentence of dismissal and then stood up to walk out of the Wenhua Hall.

However, Gao Panlong still shouted from his position:

"Long live, if you change your orders overnight, you are indulging the sycophants! This is a recipe for disaster! Long live, please think again!"

"Long live please think twice——"

Gao Panlong was not the only one to talk. Suddenly, dozens of censors within the Donglin Party spoke up one after another, and some even talked about Zhu Youjian:

"Long live! After receiving the imperial edict, His Majesty the Fifth Highness mobilized troops in Shuntian Prefecture and Yongping Prefecture, dismantled the guard posts, appropriated acres of land, and brought a large number of acres of land to the Royal Horse Prison."

"This is not the way to create chaos, but the way to subjugate the country!"

"Long live! Your Highness the Fifth Prince has also eliminated the soldiers and horses in Jizhen. If the north invades the south now, the same mistakes as during the Jiajing period will happen again!"

"Long live the edict, please take back the military power of the Imperial Horse Guards, and marry His Highness the Fifth Prince and grant him the title of king and vassal territory!"

"The prince leading the troops is a sign of chaos in the country!"

"Long live! The royal horse supervisor Nanchang is suspected of exploiting the people, please long live..."

"That's enough!!!" Zhu Youxiao, who was surrounded, roared angrily, instantly making everyone's hearts tremble.

Liu Yishen, Yang Lian, Sun Ruyou and other officials all knelt down one after another, while Zhu Youxiao waved his hands and sleeves and angrily said:

"Are there rebels in the south? Or have the northern barbarians already reached the capital? Or have the Jian barbarians captured Liaodong? Or have the Oara invaded the northwest?"

"The Ming Dynasty looks like a chaotic time in your mouth!"

"The military garrison at the Guard Station is under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army. What does it have to do with you?"

"During the great famine in Huaibei, why didn't you have such insight into everything now? Besides, when did the Ming Dynasty say that princes are not allowed to lead troops?!"

"Zuzhi, ancestral system! Opening your mouth all day long is ancestral system. So if ancestral system says that skin is peeled off and stuffed with grass, does it have to be reused?!"

"I await the death penalty..." After hearing Zhu Youxiao's words, Sun Ruyou quickly apologized, and other civil servants from the five parties, as well as Liu Yishen and others also apologized.
To be continued...
