Chapter five hundred and thirty first fat difference
Forbidden City, Fengtian Hall, court meeting.
State affairs were discussed as usual that day.
The new eunuch Xiao Jing, the eunuch with a pen, read out in public the relevant matters involving military affairs, governance and other major matters, and handed them over to the ministers for discussion.
Everything goes in an orderly manner.
"...The bandits from Jingdong began to plunder Bazhou, Yongqing and other places. He ordered the governor Gui Yong to lead his troops to arrest them. He also ordered the garrison officers in Zhuozhou, Hejian, Bazhou and Tianjin to prepare their troops and guard them carefully to prevent sudden advances.
…”
Non-important matters will not be brought to the court for discussion.
This topic involves a bandit incident in the Beijing-Tianjin area.
Bazhou and Yongqing are very close to the capital, and bandits have appeared recently. The first half is the cause, and the second half is the countermeasures formulated by the emperor. The governor Gui Yong led the troops to suppress them, and the garrison generals everywhere were prepared to prepare.
, to prevent thieves from raiding or fleeing and disturbing the place.

Of course the reviewer is Zhu Hao.
The matter was made public, and the ministers present could not hear any problems in it.
Zhu Si asked: "What is the opinion of the Ministry of War on this?"
Peng Yue, the new Minister of War, came out of the queue, raised the wat board and saluted: "No objection."
"Just do it like this."
Zhu Si raised his head, glanced at the ceiling, and had the urge to roll his eyes.
You guys are not as powerful as a friend of mine who I grew up with. You can't come up with a more appropriate plan to refute his coping strategies. It's really a waste of your money.
"...Liu Yi, the magistrate of Tongzhou in Shuntian Prefecture, said that if the area near Beijing is the old land of Huangzhuang and the emperor's consort, it will cause great harm to the people. He begs to use the land of Huangzhuang to be cultivated by the soldiers and civilians there, and to pay state taxes. The ministers in charge of the village will always be
It may be that the imperial village has been established for a long time, so it is difficult to discuss the reform..."
The incident Xiao Jing read out next involved the abuses that had occurred during the Zhengde Dynasty.
Since Zhu Si ascended the throne, the imperial court has discussed the issue of abolishing Huangzhuang several times in the Ming Dynasty. It was clear that Huangzhuang was to be abolished, and Zhang Yong, who was previously responsible for managing Huangzhuang, was dismissed from his post.
However, if it involves a lot of land in Huangzhuang, if it is directly eliminated, it will involve the problem of selling it off at a small profit.
Previously, two brothers, Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling, asked Jiang Lun to buy the land in Huangzhuang where Cai Ge was located. They said they had some connections and could buy it with just a little money. However, the matter was reported to the emperor, and the issue of Huangzhuang Cai Ge was revived.
Becomes eucalyptus.
In general……
He said he wanted to sell it before, but now Zhu Si doesn't want to sell it.
Even if they were to be sold in the future, they would have to wait until the imperial court issued a specific strategy. It did not mean that the land would be sold off after the imperial village was abolished and the money would be returned to the household department.
These fields were regarded as the "political legacy" left by Emperor Zhengde. The income originally belonged to the inner government. Why did it go to the Ministry of Household Affairs after they were sold out?
So Xiao Jing finally said, "It may be that the Huangzhuang has been established for a long time, and it is difficult to discuss the reform suddenly." This means that the Huangzhuang system is not unique to the Zhengde Dynasty. One theory is that it existed during the Yongle period, and the more mainstream theory is
It was only after Xianzong ascended the throne in the eighth year of Tianshun that the Imperial Palace was officially established.
"History of the Ming Dynasty·Shihuo Zhiyi" records: "Xianzong came to the throne, and the land that was conquered by Cao Jixiang was used as the palace farmland, and the name of Huangzhuang began from this."
Huangzhuang did not develop during the Xianzong and Xiaozong dynasties. It expanded rapidly during the Zhengde period and became an important social issue in the Gyeonggi region. It is said that in the ninth year of Zhengde, Huangzhuang occupied an area of more than 37,500 hectares.
There are a large number of official schools, village heads, eunuchs in charge of the village, etc. in the village, bullying men and women, and the people are miserable.
It is a good thing to correct the accumulated abuses, but if we eliminate them all at once and cause the internal government to suffer huge losses, this is a bit too hasty.
Moreover, what is proposed this time is that in addition to the imperial village, there is also the "old land" of the nobles. To put it bluntly, it is the land obtained by the powerful through mergers. Most of them are not purchased from the market at normal prices, which is close to seizure. There are few powerful people these days.
Those who do business mostly occupy land, and land is the greatest wealth in this era.
Yang Tinghe came out and said: "Your Majesty, the matter of abolishing the emperor's village has not been finalized long ago? Why do we need to bring up the old matter again?"
Zhu Si did not answer. He raised his hand and told Xiao Jing to step aside. Zhang Zuo, the eunuch in charge of the ceremony, came out to answer: "Mr. Yang Ge, it's like this. After the decree was made to cut down the emperor's village, his majesty sent Dongchang to the factory.
Supervised by Jin Yiwei, they discovered that the land in the Imperial Village was frequently being sold at a low price. However, many of the imperial relatives and relatives did not take action against the land. Instead, they purchased the land in large quantities. The negative impact caused by this is probably even worse than before, right?"
Yang Tinghe remained silent.
Zhang Zuodao said: "This is not reported to the state magistrate. The land of the emperor's consorts and heroes has increased rapidly, which has caused considerable harm to the people. Even if it needs to be dealt with, it must be appropriate. It cannot be corrected at once. There must be a step-by-step process.
"
Yang Tinghe turned his head to one side.
Of course he knew the problems involved, but the general trend now is to deny everything about the Zhengde Dynasty. This is in the interest of both the civil officials and the new emperor. The two sides should have reached a consensus, but now the emperor wants to keep the imperial village.
Started to sort things out.
Zhu Sidao: "Ministry of Revenue, before I asked you to be responsible for cutting down Gehuangzhuang, why was it sold at a low price?"
Qin Jin, the minister of household affairs, came out and said: "Your Majesty, this matter... the household ministry does not know about it."
Qin Jingang was transferred to the position of Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Revenue, because Sun Jiao, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, has not yet taken office. It is actually difficult for him to control many things. He is not a minister in the first place. In addition, there is a powerful Yang Tinghe who controls the affairs of the court.
, what contribution can a minister of household affairs make in such a matter?
Jiang Mian glared at Qin Jin and said, "Shilang Qin, the Ministry of Household Affairs is responsible for this matter. How dare you say you don't know about it?"
Qin Jindao: "The Ministry of Household Affairs previously mobilized too many people to audit the river works, and there was no one in the Ministry of Households who was specifically responsible for the affairs of Huangzhuang. This time, there are too many fields involved, and there is no one from the Governor's Office.
The person took away the land deed of Huangzhuang and said that he would register it with the government, so it was difficult for the Ministry of Household Affairs to contact him..."
Generally speaking, the Ministry of Household Affairs did not have a position specifically for managing the Imperial Village in the past. This was not a matter for the Ministry of Household Affairs. In the past, it was all handled by the inner government.
Now that the eunuchs in charge of the palaces have all been abolished, it means that all the palaces have become ownerless. The nobles in the Governor's Mansion directly took away the power to dispose of the palaces by virtue of their relationship with Empress Dowager Zhang and Yang Tinghe.
This led to the sale of the Huangzhuang land at a low price.
Zhu Sidao: "I didn't expect that such a situation would arise because I just wanted to get rid of some of the long-standing abuses of the late emperor. After all, those imperial mansions were also assets of the imperial court. They were stolen so easily. It's heartbreaking."
When Yang Tinghe heard this, he realized that this boy was clearly referring to Sang and Huai, saying that I did not distinguish between public and private affairs and handed over the power of disposing the imperial village to the governor's office?
"I have made a decision, please listen to me, if it is feasible!"
Zhu Si said and gestured to Xiao Jing.
Xiao Jing came out again and said loudly: "I have ordered that every land in Huangzhuang be registered and managed, and a head of the household department should be set up to manage and supervise the tax payable and pay the taxes to the households as scheduled.
The Ministry of Finance transferred it to the inner government, and the land and land were also begged to the official Charlie. Due to the old quota, the order was granted, the management license was still issued, and the minimum rent per acre was three cents of silver. In addition, the tenants were not allowed to infringe upon the land. If it was a recent occupation,
If you seize purchases and other items, you will be ordered to return them."
After all, Xiao Jing was an old man in the palace. When he read out Zhu Si's opinions in public, his tone was slow, word by word, cadence, and everyone present could hear it clearly.
Naturally, it carries a kind of imperial majesty.
The general opinion of the new emperor is that...these fields will not be sold for the time being and will continue to be managed by the court. However, there will no longer be any posts such as eunuchs to manage the village. Instead, a head of the household department will be added to be responsible for the management of the land.
In Lihuangzhuang, the taxes collected are handed over to the inner government by the Ministry of Households for use. The land of the nobles also needs to be managed and paid by the Ministry of Households. A strict taxation system must be formulated, and the nobles cannot be allowed to mess around.
As for the recently occupied land, it needs to be returned.
After listening, Yang Tinghe took the lead and said: "Your Majesty, does this mean that the old system of Huangzhuang will be preserved?"
Zhu Sidao: "How can this be regarded as a reservation? Many imperial villages were built over the years. If they were all sold together, how could there be so many people buying land in the capital? The land in the imperial village would definitely be sold at a low price, and there would also be relatives of the emperor.
If you buy it yourself, you are ignoring the interests of the imperial court."
Yang Tinghe said: "But the shortcomings of Huangzhuang should be eliminated in time!"
Zhu Si shook his head and sighed: "Mr. Yang Ge, what I mean is that the household department must first manage these farmlands. The household department is always under the jurisdiction of the imperial court. There will be no deviation in formulating and abiding by the system. The imperial village will be in the next few years."
In the year, it will be returned to the people bit by bit. If so much farmland is sold at once, it will not be a good thing for the people with farmland around the capital, what do you think?"
Yang Tinghe had a dark face and didn't know what to say.
The problem is that Zhu Si's attack was not unprovoked. He had previously told the ministers present through Qin Jin's dictation that there was a huge problem in the disposal of Huangzhuang's assets. Not only that the Ministry of Household Affairs was unable to control it, but also that nobles were buying it from their own homes.
In the case of the fields, the land was only transferred from the hands of the imperial court to the hands of those nobles, and the Ministry of Household Affairs was only given a little money to send beggars...
It sounds like child's play.
Zhu Si has good reasons, so it seems reasonable to propose that the imperial village be handed over to the Ministry of Household Affairs.
Qin Jin, the left minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, came out and said: "Your Majesty, I don't know who will take this responsibility and take charge of the power and responsibility of the imperial village as the chief?"
Yang Tinghe couldn't help but look over.
Judging from the meaning behind these words, Qin Jin must have been told by the emperor to say this in the court.
Look at you, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, how dare you betray the revolution?
Think about it again, now that the Ministry of Household Affairs has been assigned to Sun Jiao by the new emperor, and the Ministry of Industry is also nominally in the hands of the new emperor. Before, Yang Tinghe was still laughing at the new emperor's investigation of the river engineering industry. He was investigating himself and was a "dog eats dog". What now?
Are you embarrassed to come out and interfere?
Zhu Sidao: "This candidate must have experience in managing Zhuangtian. I will make a decision as appropriate and discuss it with all the ministers... I will submit the candidate to the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Household Affairs for my reference."
The ministers present heard this.
Is this kind of fat job actually an "audition"? People from each faction can recommend their own people to apply for it? It sounds like...it seems like a very lucrative position.
After all, many of Huangzhuang's accounts are full of errors, and whoever manages them can reap a lot of benefits.
Who in the DPRK doesn’t want to get a piece of the pie?
