Those who interceded in the harem were directly sent to a nunnery and imprisoned.
Those Tai students who submitted letters were directly given stacks of examination papers, and those who failed to answer the questions were all expelled.
Every member of the clan who came forward to intercede was sent to the Daxiangguo Temple to eat, pray, chant and write letters of repentance. When they can come out depends on Li Yunze's mood.
Without these means, the Lord and the faction were immediately stripped of their glamorous appearance, and then ended up with Cai Jing and others.
Confiscating your home and going to the execution ground, you have to go through all the procedures.
And since Cai Jing was torn to pieces last time, it seems to have become a tradition. Under normal circumstances, these scholar-bureaucrats who go to the execution ground cannot reach the execution ground alive. They are always torn apart by the angry people halfway.
.
The executioners in Kaifeng Prefecture are about to lose their jobs.
The people in Guizhou hated these traitors who brought harm to the country, and it was indeed very scary when they broke out.
Even those imperial students who wanted to continue to oppose, after seeing the anger of the people, stopped and did not dare to say any more nonsense.
The Zhuhe faction was swept away, at least the hall in the Great Song Dynasty suddenly became much clearer, and only twelve out of ten people remained.
At this time, Li Yunze finally had the energy to carry out large-scale reorganization of the entire court.
The first is to directly cancel the three provinces of Menxia, Zhongshu and Chamberlain.
The official positions of Shangshu Zuopushe, Dazai Shaozai, and servants were all revoked.
All the official positions in the court were streamlined into six departments, five temples, two prisons, two courtyards and one government.
The six departments are the officials, households, rituals, soldiers, and punishment workers, which can be regarded as the most basic functions of the court.
The five temples are Dali Temple, Taichang Temple, Guanglu Temple, Taipu Temple, and Honglu Temple, which can be regarded as a powerful supplement to the functions of the court.
The second prison is Guozijian and Qintianjian, which are mainly engaged in learning.
The second hospital is the Inspector's Office and the Taiyuan Hospital, and the first house is naturally the Zongren's House.
As for the military, directly transforming the Privy Council into the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies is equivalent to transferring all the Ming Dynasty's tactics.
After the streamlining, the exams will begin. Tai students under the Three-Shedding Method can also apply for the exams and join the job directly after passing the exams.
After the exam was over, Li Yunze only used one-tenth of the original manpower in the court to get the court up and running smoothly.
Local governments are also undergoing reorganization.
What transshipments, comforts, and brief envoys were all cancelled.
Each route was transformed into a province, and all armies were transformed into state capitals.
The local level is streamlined and there are only governors, prefects, prefectures and counties, and no other messy things.
A large number of civil servants were naturally very unwilling to be streamlined. They gathered to mobilize public opinion and began to viciously attack Li Yunze.
All kinds of leaflets accusing and criticizing him were scattered in the city, and various children's songs scolding him began to be sung by children.
Li Yunze simply scoffed at these.
These are all leftovers from his long time playing.
It is possible to deal with someone who has never seen the world and has been trained in the hands of women in the palace since childhood, but it is not possible to deal with him.
First, the reorganized Imperial City Division secretly investigated, and after identifying all the personnel, they immediately sealed off the city with troops and arrested them comprehensively.
After being caught, they will not be polite and will directly send them all to the execution ground.
There were also many scholars in the Song Dynasty. If there was a shortage of people, they would be directly promoted through examinations.
After temporarily arranging these matters, Li Yunze began to reorganize the army.
All the field soldiers and horses were gathered together and organized into imperial camps, divided into five armies, front, rear, left and right, which corresponded to the governor's palace of the five armies.
The commander-in-chief of each army also serves as the commander-in-chief.
After the reorganization, the five commanders of the imperial camp were Han Shizhong, Yue Fei, Wang Zhen, Zhang Jun and Li Yanxian.
Afterwards, the establishment of the Forbidden Army and the local Xiang Army were completely abolished, leaving only archers and minzhuang in the local area responsible for maintaining public order and dealing with bandits.
The real war effort is all undertaken by the imperial camp.
As a result, the Song Dynasty's soldiers and horses, which once numbered more than one million, were finally reduced in size by force.
Once the problem of redundant officials and redundancy is solved, the redundancy and expense will naturally disappear.
After that, various imperial troops began to attack. King Zhang Jun, Han Shizhong, and others sent three troops to go north to confront the Jin Kingdom.
Li Yanxian's troops were stationed in Bianliang City as a reserve force, while Yue Fei's troops began to move south to eliminate the bandits who had taken advantage of the Jin army's invasion.
Zhong Xiang in Dongting Lake, bandits in Qianzhou, etc. were all his targets.
In addition, Yue Fei's department also shoulders an important mission, which is to promote the integration of gentry and gentry along the way.
This is also an old problem of the feudal dynasty.
When the country was founded, there were fewer people and more land. After the partition, everyone can still live a good life.
However, as time went by and the population increased, the rich and powerful began to use various methods, mainly colluding with the government and paying interest to seize the fields of the people in Guizhou.
These people are rich and powerful but don't want to pay taxes and try their best to get tax-free privileges for themselves.
In the feudal era, agricultural taxes were the largest tax. However, most people had no money or land and had to pay taxes. The gentry and landlords who occupied the main means of production did not pay taxes.
The natural result is that the court that cannot receive money and food becomes weaker and weaker until it is destroyed and the next cycle begins.
If it weren't for the invasion of the Jin army, which made the threat of foreign invaders outweighed the internal chaos, the Song Dynasty would not have been able to survive for many years before it would be overthrown.
Cai Mo Fang La is the best example. The Song Dynasty will definitely be destroyed due to peasant uprising in at most fifty years.
Li Yunze wanted to alleviate the urgent threat in this regard, so he took advantage of the good opportunity now that the gentry and landlords had lost the opportunity to support the court and forcefully handled the matter.
For the gentry to serve as errands and pay grain as one body, in essence, it legally abolishes the tax-free privileges of officials and landlords.
This was followed by the abolition of the poll tax, which stimulated large-scale population growth.
Finally, the people who were trapped as tenants were released, and the land acres in various places were inventoried. Anyone with more than 100 acres of land in their home must strictly examine how the land came from.
If it was taken by force, or simply cannot be explained clearly, then it will be confiscated and distributed directly.
In order to alleviate the most intense conflicts, Li Yunze used forceful means to reallocate the fields.
As for the opposition of the gentry and landlords, let's wait until we can defeat the swords and spears of the imperial army.
Not only the gentry and landlords, but also the temples and Taoist temples all over the country were the focus of Li Yunze's attack.
If the temple's land exceeds fifty acres, all of it will be confiscated.
All the bronzes inside were taken away, and no one was allowed to be left behind.
If anyone is in the business of distributing interest, kill the abbot first and then investigate.
The first unlucky one was the famous Moulin Temple.
When the Jin army marched south, a certain forest temple was closed to visitors. They said they were practicing Buddhism diligently, but in fact they were watching the wind and waiting for the real winner to appear so that they could place their bets.
After the Jin soldiers were defeated, they began to receive pilgrims here again, and at the same time they also provided interest for the people who plowed the fields in spring.
Yue Fei's army passed by here when they went south to Dongting Lake. The accompanying work team discovered that a certain Lin Temple was distributing interest locally and asking people to use their own fields as collateral.
That night, the abbot of the temple was dragged out and beheaded.
Looking at the abbot with a shiny face and a fat brain, even Yue Fei nodded to show that he had done a good job!
The next step was to count the acres of land and distribute the tens of thousands of acres of land occupied by the temple to the tenants. After that, all the bronze utensils in the temple were taken away, and what they had done was spread everywhere.
When Li Yunze came here last year, he left harsh words, and now they have come true.
Li Yunze promoted batches of young people through examinations, and then incorporated them all into work teams and sent them to various places to deal with the clearing of local acres, and the gentry were all responsible for the work of collecting food.
If you do well, you will be rewarded, and you will be directly admitted to the tiger class to make up for any deficiencies.
Those who do not do well will be punished and all future qualifications will be cancelled.
If he colluded with the local gentry, let alone lose his head.
Li Yunze's move, which is almost an open robbery, will naturally cause a violent backlash.
After all, taking people's money is like killing their parents. Li Yunze directly robbed their land and made them work as errands to pay taxes. Of course, they also tried their best.
It is common for work teams to be attacked and killed, and there are even cases where people gather to rebel directly.
This kind of thing was actually very common in the Song Dynasty. There were many peasant uprisings in the Song Dynasty.
However, this kind of rebellion with the gentry as the main body is still rare.
At this time, it is the time for the imperial soldiers and horses to show their prowess.
Han Shizhong was in charge of Guanzhong, Wang Zhen was in charge of Hedong, Zhang Jun was in charge of Hebei, and Yue Fei was in charge of all other places.
Send troops directly to destroy them, leaving no one behind.
This massive internal rectification operation lasted from spring plowing to late autumn.
In fact, it was not completed until after autumn, or at least it would have to last several years.
However, after the autumn harvest, Li Yunze turned his attention from domestic affairs to military affairs.
According to the tradition of more than ten years ago, when the autumn is high and the horses are fat, the Jin army will send troops.
Li Yunze made two preparations. If the Jin army went south, he would let them in, and then directly encircle and annihilate them.
If the Jin army doesn't dare to go south, that's no problem, I'll just fight over there.
Zhao Ji dared to send troops to recapture Yanyun, and Zhao Huan dared to go to war with the Jin people directly. There is no reason why Li Yunze did not dare to fight.
After their defeat in Zhongmou, the Jin army fled northward, all the way back to their traditional area.
Even when Wang Zhen regained Taiyuan and Zhang Jun regained Hejian and other places, the Jin army did not launch a large-scale decisive battle.
It's not that I don't want to fight, but it's really hurting my muscles and bones.
Both the East Route Army and the West Route Army lost more than half of their troops.
And most of them are real Tatars, who are the capital of Jin Guo's survival.
Moreover, they suffered a disastrous defeat and their morale was low. They urgently needed the noble ladies of Khitan to calm their morale.
It can be said that in the past few months, Jin Jun has been busy recuperating.
They searched for a large number of people from outside the customs. In addition to the Tatars, there were also reinforcements from the Xi people, the Khitans, the Bohai people, the Han people, the Koryo people, and even many who could not tell who they were.
Then the Han'er troops were recruited from Yanyun and other places and added to each household, at least on the surface the loss of troops was replenished.
After the autumn harvest, the Jin people began to scratch their heads as to whether to continue the tradition of sending troops after autumn.
