On his way back to Beijing to reform, my father-in-law brought thousands of dollars to participate in the venture capital game, but unfortunately he was arrested by the factory guards and was sentenced to 48 hours in prison.

Cough cough, the wind blows the eggshells, and wealth leaves people happy.

………

No matter how cowardly Fang Congzhe was, he could not completely hand over the country and country of the Ming Dynasty to the hands of a eunuch, even if this person had a close relationship with his Zhejiang Party.

These eighteen reform and improvement plans are completely unacceptable to Fang Congzhe. These eighteen reforms are even more reform than reforms. They are not just the so-called reforms, but rather the fundamental system that has been operating for more than two hundred years. If Fang Congzhe surrenders and agrees, he will be the eternal sinner of the Ming Dynasty.

"Your Excellency, you must be clear that this is not our request from you, but an order to you! If you are stubborn and have any resistance or even hatred for the reform, then you must accept possible serious consequences!"

Shen Shikui's murderous threat still failed to shake the 70-year-old Prime Minister, but instead became more determined to never cooperate.

Three reasons.

First, this so-called reform was entirely an incident that could be called a "mutine" without the court's knowledge;

Second, how can the chief minister be held captained by a martial artist as the head of a civil servant?

Third, those who are qualified to talk to him are still hiding behind the scenes.

"This old guy is so stubborn that he must give him a color!"

Tian Zhong suggested that this decadent old bureaucrat should not give him too much good face, and that he should teach him a lesson so that he would know that the reform is not a treat to a meal, but really bleeding.

"The southern troops of Jin Yi have already killed the British Duke in heaven, Gaoqiao troops have killed Huaininghou, and Jinquan troops have killed Xing'anbo. The main and most dangerous elements of the traitors have been punished by heaven. The situation is completely beneficial to the Imperial Army. If you decide to kill the chief minister in heaven, the officers and soldiers of our headquarters will fully support it!"

Kumamoto Oki, who was responsible for surrounding and controlling the Prime Minister's mansion, supported Tada Tada's opinion, but Watanabe's staff officer absolutely could not agree to harm the Prime Minister.

He refused to make a decision and even stated that if the brigade commander insisted on his own, he would immediately go to the division headquarters to report truthfully.

"Watanabe, are you going to be the one who is in charge of the crime?" Tian Zhong scolded angrily.

"Sorry, Tian Zhongjun, I don't know what the following offense is. I only know that the order I received is that I must not let anyone harm the chief minister of the empire be harmed!"

Watanabe is not afraid of Tian Chuan. He sincerely wants to ask the brigade commander to calm down, calm down and calm down.

Shen Shikui ultimately did not adopt Tian Zhong's opinion. It was not that he did not have the courage, but that the result of doing so was likely to allow him to transfer from the army to the production and construction troops sent outside the pass. Then, it was not only a blow to his personal fate, but also a major blow to the young and strong forces in the imperial army.

Because of his great achievements in the war between Peace Slaves in the Japanese War, Shen Shikui had a great influence among the middle and low-level officers of the Imperial Army.

Some people have already called him Oda, Sanada and Ge Sanro, who formed the Fuxing Society in Japan, the four-headed birds of the Imperial Army. Rumors have even been said that these four people had secretly advised Eunuch Wei to take the Ming Dynasty and replace him.

Then, regardless of whether the rumors are true or not, it can be seen that Shen Shikui's status and influence in the army. Therefore, he cannot easily lose his current status.

Therefore, the first informal talks between the Fifth Division and the Imperial Cabinet Chief Minister ended in vain. When Watanabe reported to the division headquarters, he was warned by Tian Zhong and others, and he failed to truthfully report to the headquarters for the reason for the breakdown of the talks, and only reported that the chief minister had no intention of cooperating with the Imperial Army.

"Why did Fang Congzhe become tougher?"

Song Xiance was a little surprised. According to the information he knew, Fang Congzhe was an important official who had no position and had compromised more when encountering problems. Such a person, coupled with the relationship between the Zhejiang Party and the prince, came forward to preside over the restoration, why did he not cooperate at all?

"Can you bypass this person?" Anguosi didn't care much about whether the leaders of the old bureaucratic system helped.

"I can't get around it,"

Song Xiance shook his head. Just as Director Song was all about making a revolution, he knew that no matter whether it was Wei Liangchen or the emperor's personal army, he could not have the influence of Fang Congzhe on the entire imperial officials.

"The most urgent task is to get the will of the palace first." Hong Chengchou, who came to the reform command temporarily, expressed his personal opinion.

"Heng Jiu said it well."

Song Xiance did not look down on the officials of the court, but he attached great importance to this Fujian Jinshi who spoke Fujian because the other party submitted a book "Reform Book".

In the "Restoration Book", Hong Chengchou proposed to completely abolish the division of "scholars, peasants, industry and commerce" since the founding of Taizu, completely abolish the national garrison, abolish the division of past households such as military households, music households, and craftsmen, and proposed that all citizens be equal and all classes are allowed to freely communicate. At the same time, the former road guide system was abolished, and the whole country would build roads to achieve normal access within the empire, so as to promote mutual exchanges between the local people.

Although the civil household system established by the Empire at the beginning of its founding of the country had actually become a name-and-death system, as long as this system still exists in the form of a law, it still has constraints on all kinds of people in the Empire, and also has constraints on people's livelihood and business.

Hong's suggestions are based on the articles related to the circulation of the empire in the third volume of "Collected Works of Wei Gong".

However, it may be because Hong Chengchou himself was a "scholar", even though this Fujianese deeply realized the benefits of institutional change to national development, he still failed to decisively propose to abolish or reduce some of the privileges of "scholars" in the Reform Book.

Of course, this may also be the reason why Hong believes that reforms need to slow progress, because if the new policy is really implemented completely radically, the resistance of the "scholars" is inevitable, and the civil war of the empire is also inevitable.

This can be seen by Hong Hong's failure to propose reforming the land system, but only recommending the abolition of past local investment checkpoints.

In addition, perhaps influenced by the "special ticket" system of the Jiangnan Special Administrative Region and the maritime banks affiliated to the maritime yamen, Hong also boldly proposed that the Ministry of Revenue could lead the establishment of a central bank belonging to the empire and issue unified bank notes to achieve the good operation of the empire economy and to help the development of industry and commerce.

In addition, Hong also proposed to ban the guild system in various places and vigorously develop industry and commerce through maritime affairs.

Overall, Hong's "Restoration Book" focuses on business and economy. It only touches on the appearance of the empire's old system, but not the root of it. However, after all, it is very consistent with the current actual situation of the empire.

If implemented one by one, at least in a short period of time, the empire can be rejuvenated, and Song Xiance therefore appreciated it.

But the specific governance of the reform is not now. As Hong Chengchou said, the most urgent task is to obtain the will of the palace.

This matter must not be faced by the Fifth Division, but must be faced by a force that can be accepted by both internal and external forces and has credibility.

The heroes are undoubtedly the best candidates.
