Chapter 95 Restarting Enfeoffment System

Chapter 95 Restarting the Enfeoffment System

"Did you dig this out of the book in Dabentang?" Zhu rolled his eyes at Zhu Xi, who had strong limbs, and was too lazy to pay attention to him, but looked directly at Zhu Su.

"Ah...well...who says it's not the case?" Zhu Su could only talk about him.

Zhu looked at Zhu Su with a playful smile. He was looking through books in the main hall every day. Why didn't he find these weird and unique books?

"Lao Wu, is this method of yours a military training method for later generations?" Zhu Di quietly pulled Zhu Su aside. He was familiar with military books and could naturally see that this method was not just for physical fitness. He practiced it every day.

Running with heavy loads, wading through mountains and rivers... isn't this just training a soldier's marching and various abilities?

"As expected of Fourth Brother, he knows his stuff." Zhu Su gave him a thumbs up. "In fact, there is also a supporting method of 'ideological education'. I will compile it into a book for you later. In the future, as long as you don't use this method to train soldiers,

If you rebel, such a strong army will surely be invincible in the world."

Zhu Di's eyes were filled with joy, but then he felt disappointed. "As long as there was no Zhu Yunwen, how could I have done such a rebellious thing?"

"It's just that my father is already wary of me. He said that he would seal me to a wealthy place in the south and only let me be a peaceful king."

Zhu Su wanted to say that that was not a good thing, but seeing Zhu Di's visible loss, it was no longer easy to say this. Knowing that the best thing for him in this life is military service, let him be a free king who cannot go to the battlefield.

, it was as uncomfortable as killing him. He sighed in his heart and advised: "There are still a few years until we become a vassal, and everything is still uncertain. Why worry about gains and losses like this."

"Lao Wu, do you have any idea?" Zhu Di perked up after hearing this. "You can persuade dad, right? I know that what dad listens to most now is your words!"

The pros and cons of a country's governance are beyond his ability to measure.

"Lao Wu, what do you want to say?" Realizing that Zhu Su was hesitant to speak, Lao Zhu simply asked himself.

If this proposal succeeds, the Ming Dynasty will definitely become the most dazzling dynasty in history, and it may last for hundreds of more years. But if it fails, I am afraid it will end up like the Sui Dynasty of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty.

.

Even Emperor Xiaozong of the Ming Dynasty set a precedent for a dynasty and allowed the palace to collect taxes on its own on the newly granted land...

Zhu Su couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this. We are turtle sons, so who are you?

He couldn't speak directly, and he would be punished if he spoke, so he had to hold it in his mouth uncomfortably. Seeing Lao Zhu's tangled face, thinking hard, Zhu Su opened his mouth, wondering whether he should speak.

"I never thought that you idiots would be able to give birth to children..." Lao Zhu said tangledly.

"Hmm. Can I boldly ask, what are you going to do about the vassal king's shortcomings?" Zhu Su asked.

Thinking that these sins were actually his own fault, Lao Zhu couldn't help but hesitate. The more he listened to Lao Wu in the past few days, the more he felt that the Ming Dynasty was really riddled with holes. Even though he was the supreme being in the world, facing the future generations

There are many issues that still feel inadequate.

Zhu Suxin said that Lao Zhu never listened to him, he just regarded himself as a storyteller. How could the mighty Hongwu Emperor control his thoughts so easily.

But now he has the desire to speak. One of the reasons is because Zhu Di treats him well. If he really has to die in Fugui Township, he will definitely be depressed until the end of his life. The other reason is that the great gods on the Internet in later generations will be Ming Dynasty.

There has been some discussion on the vassal and town policy. If the vassal and town policy can be fundamentally changed, maybe the future of the Ming Dynasty will usher in another exciting change.

The vassal kings of later generations of the Ming Dynasty were strictly restricted in their military power and the right to participate in political affairs, and they were not allowed to leave their residences at will. They were useless. However, the founding emperor Zhu Yuanzhang cherished his descendants and made extremely generous arrangements for them in advance.

This kind of vassal system gradually turned the Ming Dynasty royal family into a huge parasitic cancer in the Ming Dynasty: the generous treatment of the vassal kings became a huge burden on the Ming Dynasty's finances. In the forty-one year of Jiajing, the country's annual supply

Beijing's grain supply is 4 million shi, while the total amount of rice produced by the feudal princes' palaces in various places is 8.53 million shi per year, which is more than twice that of Beijing city.

Zhenjiao Lao Zhuchou turned his head white. Now he has discovered a new trap of the vassal king wasting national money. These are his own descendants!

"It is a waste of national money and is of no benefit to the country. Well said, well said..." Lao Zhu murmured, but there was a hint of anger in his words. "It seems that we, the evil son of the Zhu family,

There are more than just the Fourth Brother’s descendants. These Zhu family members who waste the country’s money are nothing but worms to the country..."

In just a few months, Lao Zhu had fine-tuned and revised many policies of the Ming Dynasty. Although it was not yet to the point of changing orders every day, officials had already written to him to advise him to follow the example of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. There were too many government orders that were made too hastily and were not communicated smoothly to the upper and lower levels.

, which can easily lead to inconsistencies between central government and local government orders, leading to official chaos.

After thinking about it for a while, he answered bluntly: "It is a waste of national money and is of no benefit to the country."

Before, Lao Zhu would fall into deep thought like this after hearing about some bad policies in the later Ming Dynasty. This is how he came up with the improvement strategies. Zhu Su would always fall silent at this time. He knew that professional people do professional things

Lao Zhu is definitely the top politician, and if he were deprived of the knowledge and vision of future generations, he would probably be worse than ordinary people.

Unexpectedly, the opportunity to influence Lao Zhu's thoughts came soon. On this day, after listening to the history of Zhu Youtang, Emperor Xiaozong of the Ming Dynasty, Lao Zhu suddenly said: "Lao Wu."

"What else can we do? It's just to reduce the cost for future generations. After five generations, the court will no longer provide supplies, so there will be no worries." Lao Zhu touched his chin.

Zhu Su was stunned when he heard this. This was the first time that Lao Zhu took the initiative to ask him for his views on a certain policy after the cabinet question.

One of the reasons for the "Three Hundred Years Curse" is land annexation. But Lao Zhu did not expect that the biggest land annexer would be the Zhu family themselves.

Zhu Su hasn't talked about this section yet, but from the many clues that have been said, Lao Zhu has discovered this major drawback on his own. After all, during the reign of Emperor Xiaozong Hongzhi of the Ming Dynasty, the land granted to the vassal king

There are so many that I have to say...

"What do you think about our agreement to support the feudal princes and grandchildren?"

"Have you ever thought about sealing it outside?" Zhu Su prompted.

"Self-locked outside?" Lao Zhu was stunned, his eyes a little strange. "How to lock the outside? Could it be that you want us to send you and your brothers out?"

"No." Zhu Su almost collapsed. "I mean, have you ever thought about restarting the enfeoffment system?"

"Restart the enfeoffment system?" Lao Zhu frowned.
